Dong Fangshuo came to Yuanxiao's maiden and said to her family, "I have an idea to reunite Yuanxiao with you." He carefully told Sister Yuanxiao what to do. Then Dong Fangshuo dressed as a fortune teller and walked into the street, saying, "I watch the sky at night, and there is going to be a fire in Beijing!" " "

People do what Dong Fangshuo tells them. When it was getting dark, Vulcan really dressed in red and rode a donkey from the south.
