Someone told me that when reality is too cruel, you can escape into your dreams.

Because in a dream, no one can hurt you.

"Long song... Long song..."

The understated young male voice reached my ears in the slightly humid wind, and I stood alone in a mist.

Suddenly looking back, the blue-clothed boy on the wooden bridge built of thousand-year-old elm stretched out a hand towards this side, and the two rounded and solid-colored white bracelets on his wrist inlaid with dragon cloud carvings were particularly conspicuous. The white smoke of reeds wafted in the air, and the four white cranes with wide sleeves bordered by tail feathers seemed to flutter their wings around him, and the wind that brought up the child's blue robe danced with the wind.

"How long are you going to soak in this water?"

I tried to walk towards where he was, but my feet were frozen and I couldn't step any distance, and when I looked at my feet, I was slowly sinking into the lake.

Before ......he finished speaking, cold water poured into his throat, and his thoughts turned pale.

A basin of cold water poured down from my head, waking me up suddenly.

Why did you dream of that guy again, hasn't he been gone for months?

"You girl, don't go to clean the hall, fall lazy and slippery in this firewood lump, see if I don't tell the master to go!" When I opened my eyes, I saw Senior Brother Yun barking wildly, pointing at my nose with one hand and a copper basin with dripping water in the other.

When I saw him, I immediately understood what was going on.

Behind him, the two Xiaoxiang sisters stood and pursed their lips and pinched each other's hands. After Master Yun had a large number of punishments for guarding Si Shang Mountain at night, he took a few boys who had just entered the hall and left away. While walking, he also educated those good boys.

"When you officially enter the palace, if you are like that little wild seed, you won't be able to learn anything if you wait for eighteen thousand years!"

I laughed when I heard it, in fact, even if it wasn't like me, those children wouldn't be able to learn anything if they were really talented, at best, from wiping the body of the stone statue guarding the door to supplementing the golden light of the statue of the god of the main hall, in the end it was still a miscellaneous job.

The Xiaoxiang sisters looked at me and were stunned for a moment, Xiaoxiao came over and took off her clothes and draped them on me, and used sign language to tell me not to catch a cold. Sister Xiaoxiang came over, "Sister Changge, we don't have time to call you...... So he asked Senior Brother Yun to look at it...... See. ”

I shook my hand, "It's okay, it's okay, it's hot and panicked this summer, and his basin of water is quite beneficial." ”

"Si Shangshan is so big, she's fixing you." Xiaoxiao helped me up and gestured to me for a while, "Recently, the master has been very strict with Si Shangshan, and there is no trace of any difference, you should be careful, if he does things in it, you won't be able to get rid of it." ”

I nodded, smiled at my hundred-year-old nagging little sisters, and pushed them back to my room. "Let's go, the punishment is also punished anyway, uncle, I want to make up for sleep, and watch my great god show his skills at night to protect your safety."

The Xiaoxiang sisters are not the disciples of the Siqingmen, but they are just sent by a certain aristocratic family to do their filial piety to the deceased elders in the mountains, referred to as substitutes.

This is the custom of the Southern Wei Dynasty, which has been passed down for a long time, and is different from the customs of the back of the northern country, the nobles here believe that there is immortality, believe in the reincarnation of Buddhism, and believe that there are gods on top.

I believe that as long as I live for one day, I will respect Buddhism and Buddha, and my descendants will worship the Buddha for themselves in this royal religion, and repent of the past and seek blessings for their fathers in this life, and the living fathers and ancestors will be able to extend their blessings. The aristocracy referred to this substitute for their own Buddha and suffering and teaching, referred to as their own substitute. He was not a substitute for a long time, a year at most, but during this year, if he showed the slightest disrespect, he would suffer nearly 100 kinds of punishments, and sometimes he would be left with constant pain and whip marks on his body.

This is the custom left by the ancestors here in the past, before it was under the strict supervision of the royal nobles and large families, such customs have been preserved today, but now most of the big families are afraid that their children will suffer, and give some money to borrow the children of poor families to worship the Buddha for themselves, anyway, the horizontal and vertical are the Buddha, who comes does not care.

Later, I learned that Siqing Mountain, the Divine Doctor's Gate, was secretly supported by the royal family from beginning to end, and it was also absurd to do such feudal things for the Southern Wei Dynasty royal family. The people in the door, who have been here for a long time, know about this, everyone is reminded by the uncles in charge not to talk about it, it is the place of Siqing Mountain in the open, and in the dark I don't know where the royal family is from in the management decision.

The sisters and twins were assigned to the house where I lived, thanks to the arrival of the new generation of substitute children, I changed from a single miscellaneous girl to a miscellaneous girl with two followers, and the level was raised by one level, so that my sense of honor arose, and I was silently moved with tears.

Xiaoxiang sisters were born in a peasant family, affected by the poverty of the family, the sister was unfortunately born with the umbilical cord around the throat, lost the ability to speak, the two were often bullied in the village, so the sister is a little timid and afraid, in contrast, the sister is very backbone. When she was nine years old, she suddenly encountered a fire, and the whole family was buried in the fire, and they happened to have a wife to choose a replacement, so they came to Siqingshan.

At night, Si Shang Mountain was quiet and scary, and I heard the senior brothers say that there are often wild wolves here with their cubs to find food. Thinking of this, I rolled up my sleeves and patted my chest, don't be afraid, it's only two nights, and I can't let Senior Brother Yun look down on me.

Now that I think about it, the pride of a man like me was cultivated at that time, and it began to sprout.

In the distance, the bell of the midnight patrol rang here, and I took a bamboo leaf to put a cushion on the ground, and meticulously kowtowed to the square palace.

At this time, Qingyue's horse neighing suddenly sounded, and a person riding a horse in front of me said slowly: "How long have you been here, can you see my son-in-law, wearing a blue dress?" ”

Siqingshan is not allowed to ride a horse, these days a lot of your family to send the child who prays for his father's blessing, presumably this is also a servant of whose family, although it is a servant, I can't compare, people are under the eaves, or less trouble.

I hurriedly got up, saw the person who came, suddenly lost my toe and high-spirited spirit, and hurriedly lowered my eyebrows and bowed my head respectfully and said: "I just came, I didn't see any son, are you looking for someone?" I'll make way for you. ”

The man listened to me and paid no attention to me. Glancing at the dark mountains, he turned around and whipped vigorously and ran towards the mountains.

I sweated twice, picked up the lantern on the ground, and walked forward. I hadn't taken two steps before a small figure suddenly ran out from behind the yew tree on the side, grabbed my hand in front of me, and frightened me into throwing away the lantern in my hand.

I snorted and shuddered, "Demon ...... Goblin...... Monster ......"

The child looked at me but laughed first, eleven or twelve years old, upright, chic, wearing a blue gauze crystal smock, a moon-white robe, embroidered with layers of auspicious clouds and brocade, that is, graceful and luxurious without publicity. He looked me up and down, and finally said with a smile: "Changge, why haven't you seen me for two months, you don't know me?" ”

I picked up the lantern, took a photo, looked at the eldest grandson with disgust, and then shook my head, my voice still a little milky, but my eyes were extremely solemn, and it looked a little funny.

I said seriously: "Si Shangshan is not safe at night, what are you doing here." ”

The eldest grandson smiled and said, "I'm coming to see you." ”

I raised my hand and patted him on the head, this kid was talking nonsense again.

As a result, on the second day, I saw the eldest grandson in the main hall again, and the strange old man and I lined up at the end of the disciples and watched from a distance, watching him kneel in the center of the hall and be taught by the master. The servant next to me, who had stopped me last night, held a bright yellow dossier in his hand and held it very respectfully.

"That guy has nothing to do, why do you always want to suffer, if he lives, are you afraid that you won't suffer in this life." The strange old man stroked his beard as he spoke.

It turned out that the eldest grandson was extremely mischievous at home and not favored by the family, and he was disliked by the elders for three days and was always sent here as a substitute by his brothers to suffer. How many times has this been? Last time it was a cousin.,This time it's a distant cousin.。

I remember the first time I saw it, I was sent by Senior Brother Yun to the mountain gate to get medicinal herbs, and I saw a little beggar squatting dirtily on the side of the stone statue and shrunken into a ball, his arm seemed to be injured, and some of the blood stains that oozed out were rubbed on the top of the stone statue. This beggar-like appearance reminds me of the immortal half-life when I first came to Siqing Mountain.

I ran over with a stumbling step, crouched down and looked at him, "You...... You okay? "I'm asking such nonsense, it's really okay to look like that.

"You go away."

The soft voice suddenly sounded, although it was childish, but it revealed a trace of peace and calmness that could not be ignored. I turned my head strangely and looked at the kid who looked like he had just been beaten.

I was dumbfounded and stumbled, "You, what did you say?" ”

The eldest grandson's face was small, full of blood, a pair of big eyes were black and white, more and more delicate, holding a gold medal in his hand, dotted with bloodstains, and the word "eldest grandson" was written on it.

Pointing to the sign in his hand, I repeated quietly, "Eldest grandson, this is your name, right?" ”

The kid slowly frowned: "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

"It's nothing," I shook my head, stretched out a hand, gently wrapped my arm that was still bleeding, and nodded, "My name is Changge, what a coincidence, we are both surnamed Chang." ”

The eldest grandson's eyes suddenly bent when he heard this, and he turned back to me and made an expression as if he was sneering, "Are you going to bully me too?" ”

I just squinted at him, put down the basket of herbs, stretched out my hands, and hugged him in the next second.

"You're hurt, I don't bully you."

Scene after scene passed by in front of my eyes, I found that my consciousness was not under my control, but I recalled this scene in the disembodied body, in front of a spectator, watching how I had spent all these years before.

If you have the opportunity, you will go back to the past, and you will not run away in a bad mood.
