Begging for mercy, crazy biography and translation
This article is taken from He's notes in Qing Dynasty. Crazy people are very attractive. I translated the full text. Those who are interested in reading but don't understand ancient Chinese can read my translation, although the translation level is not high. -

The story is about a Jiangsu native named Gan. No one knows his name. Because he is brave and can shoot tigers, he jumps very high, very high, very far, very far, and runs like a fly. Mr. Gan usually has no hobbies and never helps his family. Mr. Gan likes traveling in famous mountains very much, and has traveled all over the world. Mr. Gan is chivalrous, but Lu Yu is unfair. He helps others solve problems. Besides, he doesn't have a name, and the world calls him crazy.

On one occasion, Gan madman slept in the temple, just lying down, and it happened that some acquaintances also came here to sleep. Gan madman pretended not to see an acquaintance and didn't talk to him. The acquaintance was tired on the road, so he slept under the eaves of the pillar next to Forrest Gump. Gan madman took advantage of his acquaintance to sleep, picked up the pillar in his right hand, put the acquaintance under the eaves of the column, and then Gan madman left. After a while, an acquaintance woke up and found that he could not turn over. He said without surprise, "He must be a madman." Just finished, the madman Gan came back, and the acquaintance was very angry: "Nothing to tease me?" Get me out of here! "The madman still lifted the pillar by hand, and the whole temple shook, and acquaintances came out of the cracks; Look at the madman's self-restraint, and everyone who looks at it is surprised.

Crazy people travel to Huangshan Mountain and like to go to secluded places. Although there is no one, you can have a free mind and a panoramic view of the scenery. When we reached Lotus Peak, it was several feet high and steep as a wall on all sides, but it was very flat. So the madman jumped to the peak, only to see a beautiful scenery at his feet and a beautiful temple at the top. The madman can't help but think that the peak is unattainable (there is a quote from Shan Gui in Qu Yuan's Nine Songs Deep Forest), so the madman adjusted his clothes and walked into the temple on the top of the mountain. Although it is not gorgeous, it is beautifully built and clean. Flowers and trees are elegant, birds are crisp, and some petals are scattered on the ground. The grass is green and there is no dust, which is very different from the world.

Walking into the meditation room, I saw several beds, which were tacky and made the madman feel very strange. So the madman lay in bed and saw only a small wooden fish hanging on the bed account. The madman felt very interesting, so he knocked on the wooden fish. Suddenly he heard the door open with a "ah" and two beautiful women came in from the back of the house. These two beautiful women, with curved eyebrows, cherry mouth, small white teeth and black hair, look good when rolled up. The two women were shocked when they saw the madman, thinking of avoiding him quickly. The madman rushed up to them and bowed, "I am a vagrant in the southeast and northwest." I don't want to be so abrupt at the meeting. Actually, I'm lost. Can you two tell me the way? " The two women said, "Who are you? How did you come? " So the madman told them how he saw the mountain, how he jumped up, and so on. The two beauties said, "In fact, we are all good women. We were lured here by evil monks, and there were more than a dozen people in trouble with us. They were locked in the secret room for several years, and there was no way out, so they had to live with shame. Look at you coming alone, hurry up, or you will die if you are late. " The madman is a little angry with those two women because they look down on themselves. The two women said, "The evil monk is so strong that wild animals dare not go near him. He goes out in the morning and comes back at night. Now it is estimated that you will come back soon, so run. " The madman disagreed and said, "Although I am surprised, I have to get rid of this evil monk first." The woman said, "You are not bragging, are you? If you can save me, it will really be our parents, but if you can't, it will implicate you. " The madman said, "You don't have to think about me, just tell me the way that evil monks often take, and I can do it." The woman took the madman out of the house and pointed to the steep cliff and said, "The evil monk is walking here. You should be careful. Don't take it lightly. " With that, the woman retired.

So the madman hid in the grass where the evil monk walked and waited with rapt attention. After waiting for a while, I didn't see the evil monk. The madman looked down the cliff and saw a man coming along the stream, getting closer and closer. Look carefully, it's a monk. This monk, with his back like a tiger, is strong, with a big backpack and walks like a fly. Under the cliff, the monk tightened his clothes and jumped on the cliff. The madman went up and kicked him in the chest while he was not looking. The monk fell to the ground, took a breath, untied his backpack and jumped upright. Before standing firm, the madman kicked again, and the monk pulled it away with his hand. The madman and the businessman fell to the ground.

After a while, the madman stood up, and so did the monk. The madman tried his best to kick the monk, and the monk grabbed the madman's foot with both hands, and both of them fell off the cliff at the same time. The monk was seriously injured, but the trapped beast still fought; The madman fell from the mountain and fell on the monk, which was less injured than the monk, so he hit the monk in the key while he was unstable. The monk glared at him and said, "I have dominated for decades and have never met my opponent." It is also my fate to meet you today. " The monk jumped three times and died. The madman killed the monk and went back to the temple to congratulate the two women and said, "I killed him." So he released the women in the secret room, burned the temple, took them down the mountain, asked them where their homes were, and sent them back one by one. Since then, the madman's reputation has been greatly enhanced.

The madman came to Lingnan and met a wealthy businessman. Rich businessmen are rich in a county. When they get rich, thieves will let them go, so a group of thieves plan to rob giant businessmen. The madman just arrived and heard that someone was trying to rob him. What else? So the madman secretly hid in the home of the tycoon. Before midnight, he heard voices boiling outside, and the whole family of the giant businessman was scared to death, and he didn't know what to do.

After a while, a benzene thief jumped on the roof to observe the movement, and the madman killed him. Later, a dozen people jumped in and were killed by the madman in the court. The thieves felt that the room was so quiet that there must be something wrong and they were afraid to go in. At dawn, the thieves are talking: "There must be some bad luck when you enter the house. Who will go and see? " A thief jumped up, just jumped on the wall, saw the littered bodies on the ground, looked up and saw another man sitting on the beam. He knew at a glance that he was a master and said gloomily, "Why am I so stupid?" I came up by myself, and I went down by myself. Please let me live, and I will never do anything bad again! "The madman said," it is good that you know you are wrong. Go away. "When the thieves saw this scene, they ran away and the birds and animals left.

At first light, the madman jumped down from the eaves, and the giant businessman knelt down and said, "You and I are strangers, but I have been biting the hand that feeds you and saved my family's life. Please let me thank you with half my fortune. " The madman refused to accept and left. The giant businessman grabbed the madman's hand and said, "Yi, since you don't accept thank-you gifts, what do you think of so many bodies?" The madman said, "bury them well." After the funeral, the madman left unconsciously.

Other crazy things to save people from danger are probably similar to this!

Once a madman rode a donkey across the river. The water was so deep that the donkey couldn't cross it. The madman put on his clothes and carried the donkey across the river.

Gump, the son of a madman, is also very fatherly. Crazy people are afraid that children will get into trouble. One day, the madman called his son and touched his head with his hand (the ancients said that the elders touched his head when caressing the younger generation), breaking his back muscles. The child cried and asked his father why he did it. The madman said, "It is better not to be brave than to be brave and invite trouble." . Although you are physically disabled today, you can avoid disaster. "Later, his son lived to be eighty years old and died.

I also heard that the madman turned out to be a Confucian scholar. He used to be a scholar and served as a county magistrate in a county. He happened to be in Dongshi, got up in the middle of the night, lived in seclusion in the Taoist temple.
