A long time ago, there was a member named Guan Renyi, who lived up to his name and treated people very kindly. Almost all the villagers received his favor.

In the middle of winter, Guan Renyi came back from other places to collect money and walked to a place called Incense Burner Mountain. Suddenly, he saw a person hanging from a tree by the cliff. Guan Renyi quickly rescued the person and brought him home.

Guan Renyi sighed. The villains the merchants were talking about were the bandits on the nearby incense burner mountain. In the past, they never harassed the surrounding people, but recently, rabbits ate grass in the nest and robbed several villages below the mountain.

A few days later, the businessperson was able to get out of bed, but due to his serious injuries, he fell into a hunchback. Guan Renyi took him in to help at home, and everyone called him "hunchback."

Soon came the Dragon Boat Festival. On this day, a group of juggling classes from other places came to the village to perform. They brought all kinds of stunts, the most extraordinary of which was "stepping on the core": a six or seven-year-old child, standing on a pole more than ten meters high, stepping on a vase under his feet, and he could make all kinds of thrilling moves, which made everyone scream. The juggling class circled the village for a long time and stayed at Guan Renyi's door for the longest time. Guan Renyi was very happy and gave them a lot of money.

As soon as the juggling class left, the hunchback pulled Guan Renyi aside and whispered, "Master, you are eye-catching!"

Guan Renyi couldn't help but be taken aback. In the local dialect, "eye-catching" refers to showing off white and becoming rich, and his property is being targeted. The hunchback continued: "Those jugglers just now were actually bandits on Incense Burner Mountain. The one who stepped on the core stood in a high place and had a panoramic view of your house. The actions he did were all secret codes. Now there are several houses and doors in your house, and people can understand them clearly."

Guan Renyi was startled when he heard that, and quickly asked the hunchback: How do you know they are bandits? The hunchback said, "I have been robbed by these bandits before, and I have seen their counterfeit products, so I naturally know these people. Today I saw a one-eyed one among the people carrying the core. He is the big leader of the bandits, the one-eyed dragon Laohai."

Guan Renyi took a deep breath. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "But I heard that the head of Fragrant Burner Mountain is not the one-eyed dragon Laohai, it seems to be called the flying centipede Long Qing."

The hunchback thought for a while and said, "I don't know the specifics. When I was robbed, it was the one-eyed old sea who gave orders."

After listening to Guan Renyi, he lost his opinion, so the hunchback asked him to gather the villagers to the wheat field. The villagers were also very panicked when they heard it. At this time, the hunchback stood up and said that he had a clever plan to repel the bandits.

The hunchback's strategy was very simple: stir-fry the nails. First, he sent people to the town to buy several baskets of iron nails, and then every household in the village fried the nails in their own iron pans.

After listening to the hunchback's "brilliant plan", the villagers said one after another that if they could really beat the bandits back, they would fry the nails well even if they didn't sleep overnight. Whoever was lazy was not human.

That night, Guan Renyi didn't dare to close his eyes and lay on a tree to listen to the movement. On the second watch day, he heard the sound of horses' hooves on the road, and the bandits really came, and Guan Renyi's heart came to his throat. Just listening to the hooves of the horses, the bandits didn't even block them at all. When they were fast approaching the village, they suddenly heard a horse hiss, and then several horses hissed, and then they were messed up. There was the sound of horses trampling and colliding, the sound of crowds falling and shouting, and a few horses fell into the river by the roadside.

The bandits felt strange and lit a torch, but as soon as the torch was lit, an arrow flew over, followed by the sound of gongs, drums and shouts in the village. The bandits did not understand what had happened, and they panicked in their hearts, like water at low tide, which suddenly disappeared.

When the bandits left, torches lit up in the village. Guan Renyi walked to the entrance of the village and saw that the road into the village was covered with nails, and there were many messy horseshoe prints on them. He immediately understood: the nails were fried hot, and they were spread on the road.

Everyone was very happy to see that the bandits were scared away so easily, but the hunchback sighed and said, "Don't be too busy being happy, the bigger disaster is yet to come! I just wanted to shoot the one-eyed dragon Laohai to death and make the bandits leaderless, but in the end I let him escape. When they come back to their senses, they will definitely not give up."

When Guan Renyi heard this, he had no idea. The hunchback said, "Master, only by letting the army exterminate the bandits can we avoid future troubles. I have to go there myself."

Guan Renyi's eyes widened, "Just you?" It was not that Guan Renyi who did not believe in the hunchback, but the bandits were too cunning. In the past, the government also went into the mountains to suppress bandits, but the terrain of Fragrant Burner Mountain was complicated.

The hunchback said to Guan Renyi, "Time is running out. I need to get to the county seat and contact the government before they come back." At this point Guan Renyi did not ask much and said, "I have many fast horses in my stable, you can choose!"

The hunchback said, "The horse is running too slowly. I want to borrow a pair of dustpans from the owner."

Can you run fast with a dustpan? Guan Renyi found it was strange. He didn't bother to ask, so he asked someone to take out all the dustpans in the house and let the hunchback choose. The hunchback picked none of the favorite ones for a long time, so the villagers brought all their dustpans. The hunchback circled around the dustpans, had a count in his heart, and said to Guan Renyi, "Master, there are traces of burning on these dustpans. It can be seen that the villagers have tried their best to fry nails. This is their gratitude for your kindness and repayment to you. For your kindness, it is worth my death."

After saying that, the hunchback took a pair of dustpans and clipped them into his armpits, as if a pair of wings had grown out of thin air. He took a few steps forward, fanned the dustpan with both hands, and took advantage of the wind. Without touching the ground, he ran far away in the blink of an eye. Everyone had never seen such a miraculous light work, and stared at the hunchback's back for a long time.

A few days after the hunchback left, news came from the county seat that the government had found the cave where the bandits in Xianglu Mountain were hiding and wiped them out. Except for the root cause, the whole village was very happy. Everyone said that the hunchback must have played a role, and the hunchback was a great benefactor to the whole village!

After a few days, news came from the city that the bandits were going to be executed. Guan Renyi and the villagers rushed to the county seat after hearing about it, and saw a lot of prison vans coming from afar. Guan Renyi squeezed into the crowd, and when he saw the prison van at the head, he was startled - there was a person locked in the prison van, and it turned out to be a hunchback! Guan Renyi and the villagers couldn't believe their eyes, so they were stunned for a long time before catching up. Guan Renyi knelt in front of the prison van and asked, "Engong, what's wrong with you?"

The hunchback opened his eyes, smiled bitterly, and said, "Master, you are finally here, I deserve it! I can't hide it now, I am the big master of Fragrant Burner Mountain, Flying Centipede Long Qing!"

It turned out that the hunchback was really the big master Long Qing, and he knew a strange kind of light skill, so the rivers and lakes were called "Flying Centipede." Long Qing was forced to lead his brothers to into the grass and become bandits. He made a rule that he only robbed wealthy and corrupt families who were not benevolent, and did not offend the nearby people. A year ago, Long Qing saved one person in the snow, the one-eyed dragon Laohai. Laohai City was very deep, and soon climbed to the seat of the second master. He hid it from Long Qing and led the brothers to rob everywhere. The brothers tasted the sweetness and were all dead on him. Long Qing was very angry when he found out, so Lao Hai took action first and planned to kill Long Qing. Thanks to Long Qing being blocked by a big tree when he fell off the cliff, and being saved by Guan Renyi in time, he saved his life.

Long Qing said with tears in his eyes, "I don't want to watch my brothers mutilate the villagers. I have no choice but to lead the army to their hiding place."

Guan Renyi choked up and said, "Beneficent, you are a good person. Without you, I don't know how many people the bandits would harm. I will immediately report to the county magistrate, and the whole village will jointly guarantee to save you from death!"

Long Qing shook his head and said, "No need, I volunteered to die. There are still some ignorant children among my brothers in prison, and I exchanged my life for their immortality. Master, I have one last thing to ask of you: when they get out of prison, please take them in like you took me in, and don't let them go astray again.

Guan Renyi agreed in tears.

When the execution time came, dozens of heads fell to the ground. Guan Renyi buried Long Qing's body, and the whole village buried him with the most solemn funeral.

Soon after, a temple was built in the village, and the god in the temple was a little strange. There was a pair of strange things under the god's side, like a pair of wings. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that they were two dustpans. People called the temple "Dustpan Temple", and the god inside was naturally "Dustpan God". It is said that from then on, he became the most effective god who protected the local area with good weather and abundant crops.
