The Fool Zhang Is Brave and His Righteousness Suppresses Hundreds of Ghosts

A fleeing widow was hanged under an old locust tree at the east end of Zhangjia Village. Her resentment persisted and turned into a vicious ghost, causing the whole village to suffer from nightmares every night. The elderly and children got sick one after another, and everyone avoided her. Only Zhang DaDa, a simple and strong man in the village, acted magnanimously for twenty-three years, had good intentions in his heart, and had pure yang and righteousness that could not invade evil spirits. The female ghost tried to harm him many times, but was burned by his righteousness, leaving her helpless. When Zhang DaDa saw that the female ghost had deep obsessions and longed for her son, he felt compassion for her. He brought food to her every day to comfort her, but never harmed her. It happened that a wandering Taoist priest passed by and pointed out that his righteousness could save his ghost. He followed the Taoist priest in reciting the rebirth mantra, used his kindness to resolve the resentment in the female ghost, and sent her to reincarnation with the child. After that, Zhang boldly packed up his luggage and traveled around with the Taoist priests. Instead of relying on peach wood talismans, he traveled all over the world with his magnanimous and kind heart to save the souls of those who died in vain.
