The sumeru bottle in the country is rare and precious.

My hometown is Huai 'an Village at the foot of Qingming Mountain. This place is close to the sea and has been harassed by pirates in history. My grandfather said that there was chaos in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and the red-haired Yi people here were particularly rampant. Once, Franco's boat came again, and my great-great-grandfather's second uncle was unlucky and met it.

Franco's pirates caught him and forced him to lead the way with a gun. He took a group of pirates in circles. The pirate later found that a flash of light hit his leg, and he rolled off the cliff with a scream, fell into the sea and broke his leg. This is a matter of life and death for the villagers. He held his breath, paddled hard with his hands and climbed to the shore.

Fortunately, his nephew Yun Sheng was fishing nearby that day, and he was busy saving him. He reported the news and died as soon as he relaxed. Gathering pace did not dare to delay, so he rode a donkey to the village, just to bring the news back to the village before the pirates arrived. Hearing that pirates were coming, the whole village panicked.

Just then, the beggar who came to beg in the village ran to the village head and said that he had an idea.

Three days ago, a beggar came to the village to beg with a newborn baby girl. His clothes are worn out and his face is clean. He drank milk from a transparent glass bottle to a baby girl, like a degenerate son. Every time he goes to a door, he speaks kindly and tells people fortune. Explaining a few words about Zhouyi is quite bluffing. Seeing his pitiful appearance, the villagers greeted him politely and gave him a bite from the bottom of the pot. Yun Sheng's mother just gave birth to Yun Sheng's younger brother a few months ago. When she saw the baby girl crying, she held her and fed her three or four times. The beggar said there was a way, but no one believed him. If he had a way, would he be so poor that he stuttered?

Chang Li was helpless and asked him, "What can you do?"

The beggar said that he knew there was a fairy cave under a big pagoda tree at the foot of Qingming Mountain, where everyone could hide with dry food.

Chang Li smiled angrily. How many stones and grass are there on Qingming Mountain? Can a foreign beggar be more familiar with the villagers here than his ancestors? They came and went without seeing any holes. Why did he see them?

The beggar was so anxious that gathering pace and several other young students went with him. As a result, the vines under the pagoda tree were pulled out, and there really was a cave. Everyone was surprised. They have lived in Huai 'an Village for more than 20 years and have never seen this cave. Gathering pace a few people went in and saw the cave was dry and bright, which was really able to hide people.

The beggar said that he had been here, and it was deep enough to hide a village. Time is pressing, gathering pace them to fly back to the village, shouting "Come on, come on" at the entrance of the village. The villagers are already waiting at the entrance of the village with big bags in their hands. As soon as they heard this, they dragged their children, led the sheep, held the chicken and ran after them.

Later, my grandfather told me that fortunately, I escaped in time, and it was not long before the French robot entered the village. When I got back, everyone's house was in a mess, and there were no chickens, ducks and dogs left, so I didn't have time to take them away.

When entering the cave, the beggar held an oil lamp and called on everyone to go in boldly. They walked for a quarter of an hour touching the cave wall. Suddenly, the front was suddenly enlightened. One day, as soon as everyone came out of the hole, they stepped into the wheat field higher than their thighs.

Gathering pace shouted, "Oh, the hole is open at both ends!" "The beggar waved and said," Nothing, nothing, pirates can't get in! " "

The villagers have to trust him first. You held me and I held you, stumbling out of the wheat field. Take a closer look at the highlands. Not the back hill, nor the neighboring village. The mountains and rivers are strange and magnificent. The wheat bears nine ears and is heavy. Every tree in the forest is so high that it covers the sky. It looks like it has grown for thousands of years. Saw off the stump and you can build a house. The most important thing is that flowers bloom and flowers fall here, birds sing and cicadas sing, and the sight of a flat wife is really something I haven't felt for many years.

The villagers scattered around and found it really comfortable here. As already discussed, build a shed here and a pigsty there. Chang Li was helped by his grandson for a short walk, and he laughed his eyes off with joy. After returning to the taste, the villagers knelt on the ground and kowtowed, shouting that God had opened his eyes and the Bodhisattva was merciful.

That night, the young men cut branches and sawed wood, and the women made boards out of huge leaves and built some sheds first. The next morning, the beggar asked everyone to stay here at ease. He took his daughter out for a look and never came back. Everyone found a line on the ground. He told the villagers to remember this day and go out in peace.

Later, everyone's life here became better and better. There are no natural disasters here, the weather is fine, crops and fruits can flourish, there is a good harvest without much effort, and no one will go hungry. You don't have to pay imperial grain, and you won't encounter war and famine.

Children are born one after another, and more and more people are white and fat. The old people fanned their grandchildren with cattail fans, saying that they had never lived such a fairy life for eight generations. Gradually, everyone took this place as their hometown and forgot the war outside.

Gathering pace is a little ambitious, and he always has the dream of fighting for a soldier in Haikou. One day two years later, he made up his mind, packed his package and returned along the original road. The grass in the cave has grown very long and the vines are in full bloom. Gathering pace with a sickle cut all the way, very easy to go to the mouth of the cave, but met a wooden door. He pushed open the wooden door and saw everything in front of him. He froze.

His hole is the mouth of a glass bottle, and a huge hand is holding the bottle. The giant was wrapped in a black scarf and blue cloth, sitting alone in the carriage with a familiar face. It's the beggar holding a baby girl.

Gathering pace nervously climbed out of the bottle. Unconsciously, his body became bigger and he fell to the beggar.

The beggar raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Gathering pace, how did you get out?"

Gathering pace nodded and stared at the bottle in his hand. The bottle body is transparent and flawless, and the bottle mouth is slender. There are many plants and trees in the bottle. When you look at the clouds carefully, sometimes there are lights. There are hundreds of black ants crawling inside. Some got into the cabin, some climbed the mound, some carried small ants, and some carried rice grains and straw. Gathering pace more see more surprised, grabbed the bottle. This time, he saw a familiar small mound near the "wheat field" and his "house" A big ant is playing with a small ant at the door, which should be Yunsheng's mother and brother. There is a brown grasshopper tied to the wooden pole next to it, which should be the cow at home.

Gathering pace gave a "ah" and trembled all over. Ghost story.

"Beggar" quickly took back the bottle in his hand: "Be careful, don't take it with shaking hands."

Gathering pace, pointing to him, "you, you, you" for a long time failed to speak.

"Beggar" said with a smile, "You saw it all, so it's no harm to tell you. This bottle is my ancestral magic weapon, called' Sumeru Bottle'. Big things will become very small if you put them in. I used to use it as my baby bottle, which can hold a lot of milk. Unfortunately, in troubled times, you can't get much. "

Gathering pace wanted to talk, but his teeth shook as soon as he opened his mouth. "Little darling, are you all right?"

"Beggar" said, "She's fine. I entrusted her to my nephew. "

Gathering pace pointed to the bottle: "We have been living in it for two years? You've been taking us with you? "

"Beggar" said, "It's not safe to be buried under a tree. You may be washed away by the flood and scratched by wild animals, so you should take it with you. I'm not that easy to die. The bottle was in front of me and I lost it. "

Gathering pace felt something and didn't know what to say. At the party in the town, the beggar treated him to tea and rice. Gathering pace said, I still want to go back and tell you that the "beggar" also nodded and read a sentence "hidden in mustard" to gathering pace with the bottle mouth, and gathering pace was sucked in at once.

Back in the bottle, there is still a long and narrow stone wall full of weeds. Gathering pace touched the stone wall and jumped straight up, just like having a big dream. Without a rest, he hurried back to the village and told the villagers everything he saw outside.

The captain knocked on his crutch and called him a dreamer. Gathering pace was not convinced, so he took a few friends, such as Yang Gen and Shui Gen, out of the hole to see it. When they arrived at the mouth of the cave and saw the outside world with their own eyes, several people were frightened. It's true. The place where hundreds of them live is a bottle in the hands of others. The beggar is aiming his spear at the side of the fishing boat. Seeing the movement coming from the bottle on his chest, he bowed his head and whispered, "Wait a minute! Go back. "

Yang Gen and others withdrew their heads and never dared to come out again. Gathering pace went back and thought for a few days, but he told his mother that he wanted to go out and kill Haikou. He took out a bottle carrying 30 kilograms of pancakes and said goodbye to the beggar.

Later, gathering pace really joined the army, killed a dozen pirates and made thousands of households. Four years later, he saw the "sumeru bottle" again. At that time, he had been captured by pirates and kept under the deck of a French robot.

One morning, when he was flogged and scrubbed the deck, he saw a sailor leaning on the mast, holding a bottle in his hand and staring at it with an extremely important eye. He has black hair, fair skin and a little green eyes, like a half-blood Japanese. Gathering pace didn't know this employee, but he was relieved to know that someone was guarding a village before his death.

Gathering pace heard several veterans who were also locked up here say that the old Xu with green eyes was not a bad person, but an undercover and one of our own. It was he who delivered the message that kept them from being wiped out by the sneak attack. It was also him who quietly brought food and water when the pirates didn't eat or drink and everyone was so thirsty that they drank urine from each other.

Two months later, Haikou heard that the people who landed had new strong prisoners, ready to kill half of the people at the bottom of the ship. Lao Xu tipped off and ran away. Before he could jump into the sea, he was killed by a fire in Haikou. The bottle fell to the ground, the bottle mouth cracked, and thousands of black ants came out of the bottle and stood up and became people.

At this time, the sunset was dark, and the pirates were almost scared to death. The villagers suddenly fell here from the nest of God bless, were pointed at by many knives and guns, and were scared out of their wits.

Gathering pace shouted through the iron fence, "You have lived as a fairy for years. Now that the bottle that sheltered us is broken and the benefactor is dead, are you still waiting to be slaughtered? " The pirate hit Yun Sheng in the leg with a flash of light.

There was a commotion in the crowd, and many people burst into tears. The captain raised his hand to silence everyone. He approached the pirate leader and said kindly that this bottle is a treasure, with vast fertile soil and endless rice and grain in Man Cang. When the pirates heard this, they asked the villagers to take their people in. Chang Li's grandson volunteered to take four pirates into the bottle.

Soon they came out, and the four pirates were very excited. They talked endlessly with the leader about the magnificent scenery inside. The little leader also itches in his heart. Tell a team to go in with him. After entering the room, gathering pace suddenly motioned to give him the bottle. Before the pirates could stop him, gathering pace's younger brother grabbed the bottle and handed it to him. Gathering pace aimed the bottle at the pirates and shouted "Hide in the mustard seed of Sumeru"!

The pirates were sucked in at once, gathering pace picked up their flashlights that fell to the ground, and black ants crawled around in the bottle. He tore a piece of cloth from his trouser leg, plugged the broken bottle mouth and shouted, "Bring something and smash them to death!" " "

The villagers took out a shell full of iron stone from the ammunition box next to Hongyi cannon. Gathering pace put the bottle horizontally on the ground, and everyone carried the shells directly above the bottle.

The sumeru bottle was smashed to pieces in an instant, and a stream of blood poured out from under the crevice.

Later, the whole village, old and young, went back to Huai 'an Village to farm and watch the weather for dinner. Many people's names are also written on the hero wall in the ancestral hall, including Yun Sheng and his younger brother.

Next to the ancestral tablet in the ancestral temple, there is a tablet without words and a bottle restored with countless broken glass pieces.

I heard this story when I was very young, and it was only after a long time that I saw it in Taiping Guangji: In the middle of Tang Zhenyuan, in Yangzhou Fangcheng, someone claimed to be Hu Meier, begging with a glass bottle, and hundreds of thousands of dollars were put into a bottle as big as millet, and horses and cattle were put into a bottle as big as mosquitoes and flies. As soon as the tax official tried, he put dozens of cars and light goods escorted by the tax official into bottles and disappeared.

Perhaps the sumeru bottle in Huai 'an village is such a bottle with space magic.
