It all started in the year of Ji Lu.

The waning moon will not set, and the cold stars will be hidden in the sky. Looking at www.biquge.info the sky like ink, my heart sank to the bottom of the sea, and the sweat stains on the palms of my hands had already soaked the cuffs, but I could only hold the corners of the wedding dress tightly and tremble in the sedan chair.

Everything is just like a thousand sails, and the beautiful dream is past, and it is all gray. And is the root cause of this gloom an inescapable fate or a mutilated nightmare? I don't know.

A few months ago, because my tuberculosis became more and more serious, Erniang said some pillow words at my father's place, what can no longer let me stay in the house, what tuberculosis will be contagious, etc., so my father sent me to my father's and mother's hometown according to her wishes, and only let a maid in the house accompany me.

Mother's hometown is a small town with beautiful mountains and rivers at the junction of Yunguo and Chenguo. This is a fragrant flower for the curtain, the landscape is the peach blossom source of the city, and even the warm wind blowing is diffused with a faint fragrance of flowers.

I was glad I was here, but after three months of living in it, I realized that the town was a living hell, and it was all due to a sudden natural disaster. None of the people in the town could have imagined that such a water-dependent place would go without rain for three months, and we were completely confused.

Once, the mayor of the town responded to the wishes of the whole town, and he invited a Taoist chief to ask for rain. After three days of service, we all knelt on the ground in the center of the town, hoping that Heaven would have mercy on us, but the heavens were not beautiful, and after all, the rain did not fall. In the end, the Taoist chief sighed, shook his head and said: "Everything in the world revolves around the cycle of cause and effect, and it doesn't rain in your town for a long time, which angers the dragon king in the river. ”

The words of the Taoist chief are light and light, but they fall on our hearts with thousands of words.

Everyone was terrified and asked what they could do to save them.

The Taoist slowly swept over us and softly spat out a few words: "Marry the Dragon King." ”

When everyone heard this, they laughed loudly, thinking that the Taoist chief was joking, but the Taoist chief looked quite serious, word by word: "Every year on April 13 is the Water Festival, you choose a woman whose birthday is also April 13 and has just reached the river to sacrifice to the river, and then dedicate her to the dragon king." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their heads one after another. Although the Taoist chief is highly respected, everyone will still be suspicious of such an absurd thing. Perhaps it was that glimmer of hope that ignited the only desire in everyone's hearts, and in the end everyone nodded, even if it was a bit inhumane.

Little did I know that such a catastrophe would happen to me.

This year's River Niang has not been a suitable candidate, the girls in the town are either not birthdays, or there is no time, the mayor rummaged through the birthday files of the whole town and did not find a woman who can become a river Niang, except for me, a foreigner.

The maid Lian'er swore to death and wanted to send me away, but how could everyone let me go? They arranged for people to gather around the gate of my house every day, and there was no way to escape. I repaired several letters and wanted my father to send someone to save me, but I didn't see any news coming for several days, and I understood that Erniang wanted me to disappear.

So, when April 13 really came, I had to be sent to a sedan chair by them, after all, in the face of natural disasters, I am nothing as a weak woman.

As the river lady who was going to sacrifice to the river, I was carried to the river by everyone in a sedan chair. The cold night breeze blew into the sedan chair, and the curtain was lifted by the wind, and my heart beat even harder.

But suddenly, there was a noisy sound outside, and I was in confusion, when a pair of strong hands grabbed me and whispered: "Before they find out, go quickly!" ”

I raised my eyes, and it was him, the person who hid on the tip of my heart, Xiao Ran.

Knowing Xiao Ran was completely unexpected to me. The day I first met him was the town's market lantern festival. The **** wanted to conform to the local people's feelings, so he paced around the river where the lotus lantern was placed, but suddenly heard a flute sound, tactful and melodious, clear and clean. I followed the prestige, and I saw him in a moon robe. Yuehua fell to the ground, he held a flute in his hand, his long hair fluttered, so good-looking, I couldn't help but forget it.

"In Xia Xiaoran, the girl is so interested." The sound is as clear as water, falling on the ears. I turned around, my cheeks reddening. When I was in the capital, my father never let me go out because I had tuberculosis, and even when I did, I would follow the family. If I remember correctly, my meeting with a strange man was also my teenage years. I saw him look at me with a gentle face and a smile on his face. As soon as I was about to answer, a peach blossom fell on my hair, but he was nowhere to be seen.

In the future, every evening, a peach blossom will appear by my window. Day after day, without stopping. I later learned that he was a doctor at the Jiyitang, and then I used to call my illness a visit to him, and this visit lasted for three months. Outsiders say that we are a golden boy and a girl, a match made in heaven, but who would have thought that I would become a river lady, and there was a later thing.

When I saw him coming, I was surprised and was about to speak, but he put his index finger to his lips and made a gesture: "Shhhhhhhhhhh ”

I nodded, and let him take my hand and walk out of the sedan chair. I thought I would be scared, but when I found out that he was there, my heart would warm up for no reason.

The banks of the river were filled with torches spitting letters, and the whole world was dyed red. I was about to ask him about the group of people who had been guarding outside the sedan chair, but I heard a lot of voices across the woods. I looked over and saw the fire and smoke billowing from there. Xiao Ran smiled mysteriously: "I put it!" With that, he continued to pull me out of the river.

Outside the river bank is a dense forest, and the evening breeze is tight, and it is the coldest. I looked at the dark woods, and I only felt a cold wind blowing in my ears, and my body couldn't help but shiver a few times. He and I hid behind a boulder among a few pines and cypresses, and we could see the riverbank through the sparse cracks in the leaves. He was going to take me away quickly, but I was always uneasy and insisted on staying and watching for a while. He couldn't resist me, so he had to hide with me.

Seeing him hold my palm tightly, there was another warm current in my heart. In this world, there are thousands of happiness. But what, it can't compare to the warmth of the person on the tip of the heart. I was thinking about it, but my mind was disturbed by the noise. When I came back to my senses, I realized that there were already people gathered on the riverbank. They all shouted loudly, and it was not difficult to see from their anxious and angry faces that they knew the fact that I was missing.

Suddenly, my heart couldn't help beating wildly again, and my body trembled. Xu was he sensed my fear, gently hugged me into his arms, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

I raised my eyes and looked at his eyes as warm as jade, and my heart felt at peace for a moment. The four eyes met inadvertently, and the moment of electric light, the spring light dimmed, and everything was quiet. At this time, everything is nothing but dust.
