Chapter 1 The crossing begins with the monk
In the summer of June of the Qing calendar year, the temperature in Shengjing, the imperial city of the Great Xia Dynasty, plummeted overnight and snowed like goose feathers, and this heavy snow fell for seven days and seven nights, and the silver-covered Shengjing City looked very strange in summer.
Under the beautiful appearance, there is no beautiful snow for people to celebrate happily, there is no crisp sound of children playing, there are just the corpses of beggars who freeze to death before they have time to react and people hiding at home to take out winter clothes to keep out the cold, and of course, in the Lion Alley, the red that has long been frozen into ice flows out of the Qin Mansion!
In the Black Mountain Village, twenty miles outside Shengjing City, in a small house with faint candlelight, the conversation between the two women slowly floated out: "Sister-in-law Yang, what's the matter with that little monk in your family?" ”
A young woman about twenty-seven or eighteen years old on the kang smiled slightly, her gentle temperament was revealed, but the needle and thread in her hand kept answering: "Yesterday, when I was about to go to the door to wait for my Xiaojun to come back, I just walked to the door and saw the little monk lying under the eaves, the little person curled up into a ball, and his face was frozen purple. The poor child is about the same age as my Xiaojun, and there was still a breath at the time, I really couldn't bear to take it home and pour some hot water to finally relieve my breath, and now I don't know how the situation is when I sleep, if I don't wake up today, I will go to Rongchun Hall to ask for a doctor. Hey, I don't know how long this ghost weather lasts, I heard that today the city guards of the imperial city dragged a cart of corpses to the mass grave outside the city. ”
Sitting next to Sister-in-law Yang was a slightly chubby woman who was also doing needlework, she glanced at Sister-in-law Yang, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes and said: "You are just rotten and kind, you can't take care of your own family in the world today, and you have picked someone back, and I don't know if this battle will start in the end, if you can take care of yourself, it would be good." After a pause, the fat woman remembered that she was on an errand in the city guard, and couldn't help but straighten her chest proudly, and then said: "I heard that our head of the family said that the military god General Qin was destroyed by the emperor a few days ago, you can tell me how to kill such a good person as General Qin, and I don't know what the emperor is ......."
"Sister-in-law Huang, be cautious! That's it for today, the children are coming back, you hurry back to greet you, it's time to prepare dinner. The young woman stopped talking, put down a square handkerchief that was being embroidered in her hand, and the intention of sending off the guest could not be more obvious.
Sister-in-law Huang endured her dissatisfaction and kept slandering in her heart, wouldn't she recognize a few words and embroider a few patterns, and really think she was a character? The origin is unknown, not to mention that it is still a broken household with a dead father-in-law, you don't welcome the old lady, the old lady is not happy to come! He shook his head and twisted his fat body and walked away.
With the end of the conversation, Qin Ketian who was lying on the kang opened her eyes, and the conversation just now came to her ears word for word from the wall that had no sound insulation effect, if it weren't for the aunt's kindness, she might have died for the second time, Qin Ketian couldn't help but sincerely thank this sister-in-law Yang for saving her life.
It's been a week since she came to this world, and she went from confusion to acceptance to the tragedy of annihilation, which made her feel physically and mentally exhausted at the age of twenty-four. Forcibly enduring the pain in his heart, Qin Ketian put away his chaotic thoughts, the Qin Mansion is gone, but he still has to live strongly, for revenge, for the relatives of the Qin Mansion, for himself!
Sighing softly, Qin Ketian slowly sat up from the kang and began to look at the surrounding environment, this is a very simple, very simple room, except for a square wooden table and the kang under him, it seems that the master's family background is not very good.
Feeling a burst of dryness in his mouth, Qin Ketian felt his physical condition, he should be able to barely pour water on the ground, right? She has been a strong person since she was a child, and she is unwilling to fake her hands if she can.
As soon as she stood up, Qin Ketian was dizzy, she still overestimated herself, she was only a six-year-old girl, Qin Ketian laughed self-deprecatingly.
Just as Qin Ketian slowly moved to the table, a string of children's crisp shouts came to mind outside the door: "Mother, I'm back, is the monk brother in the house awake?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a boy appeared outside Qin Tian's door, looked at her in surprise, and shouted excitedly: "Mother, the monk's brother is awake, come and take a look!" ”
It was found that Qin Ketian woke up by Yang Jun, the son of Sister-in-law Yang, who was eight years old this year, holding a slightly broken book in his hand, obviously just leaving school.
Sister-in-law Yang wiped her wet hands from scrubbing vegetables, touched her son's head and said, "Xiaojun, go pour some hot water for your brother, my mother will take a look." Xiaojun shouted "Okay, and ran to the kitchen like a gust of wind."
Sister-in-law Yang helped Qin Ketian to sit back on the kang and reproached: "Why don't you wake up and scream, what do you do when you get up, be careful with your body, but it was not easy to get better." As he spoke, he gently touched Qin Tian's little bald head.
Sister-in-law Yang's full of care moistened Qin Tian's eyes, who had experienced a week of great changes and suffering, and she remembered that her adoptive mother in another world had touched her head so gently and whispered, and also remembered the mother who was the original body of this world, although she had never touched her head like this, she often told her to care, and tears slipped down instantly.
It was when she was sad that Qin Ketian was hugged into her arms by Sister-in-law Yang, gently stroking her back, and only heard a gentle comfort, "Don't be afraid." ”
Qin Ketian was stunned for a moment, and then cried loudly, thinking of the sudden crossing, all the doors were destroyed, hunger and cold all the way and urgent pursuit, no matter how strong she was, she was just an ordinary girl, "Let yourself cry so presumptuitously this time!" "The hard atrium cracked a little at this moment.
Sister-in-law Yang hugged her small body and sighed softly: "Cry, children, cry out all your grievances, there is nothing in this world that cannot be passed." Her still soft face was full of memories, pain, tangled complex expressions, everyone has their own past, doesn't it?
When Xiao Jun returned to Qin Tian's room with a pot of hot water from the kitchen, he saw his mother hugging the monk's brother with a sad expression, and the monk's brother was crying so sadly, he wanted to do something to pull his mother and the monk's brother out of this sadness.
Xiaojun unconsciously raised his voice and shouted, "Mother, I have fetched hot water, hurry up and give it to the monk's brother." ”
Hearing the voice, Qin Ketian suddenly sat up from Sister-in-law Yang's arms, touched her face and thought a little embarrassed, she was a twenty-four-year-old person crying like this in front of a little child, and her previous strength was taken to the dog?
Sister-in-law Yang looked at the shy little monk and couldn't help laughing and said, "Good son, pour a glass of water for your monk brother." ”
Qin Ketian looked at Xiao Jun grinning happily and holding the cup with big eyes, as if to say, drink it, drink it, the water I poured is sweet, she laughed out loud, thanked her and couldn't wait to drink the water, if she remembered correctly, she hadn't drunk hot water for two days, and when she was thirsty, she just grabbed a handful of snow.
Xiao Jun blinked and asked, "Brother monk, why did you pass out at my door?" ”
Hearing the question, Qin Ketian's face couldn't hide the sadness, and his heart kept wandering in his heart before leaving, Grandpa's advice, "Ketian, don't blame grandpa, the three thousand green silk was cut in exchange for your safety, if you don't get out of Shengjing alive, you must not reveal your daughter's body, you have to obediently listen to the words of Third Uncle Qin, if you leave, you must not come back, if you leave Shengjing, you must stay far away, go to Jiayu City in the south to find the Qingyi faction to find your brother to live well, don't come back, you must promise grandpa." ”
Seeing that Qin Ketian was stunned and didn't speak, Xiao Jun asked anxiously, "Brother monk, why don't you speak?" ”
Qin Ketian shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it suddenly snowed heavily in Shengjing, the master froze to death, I fainted when I was sad, cold and hungry, I didn't expect to wake up at your house." After speaking, he smiled sweetly at Xiao Jun, revealing the two small dimples on his cheeks that looked very cute, Xiao Jun couldn't help but be stunned, and secretly said in his heart how this monk brother laughed like Sister Lan next door, it was so good-looking.
After a lot of soothing and crying from Sister-in-law Yang, and with the innocent and romantic company of Xiaojun, Qin Ketian quickly cheered up, took the initiative to stretch out a friendly hand and said: "The little monk is called Qingtian, Qingtian of Qingshui Hetian, what is your name?" ”
Xiao Jun hurriedly replied: "My name is Yang Jun, Yang Jun is Yang Jun of Yang Shu is handsome Jun, you will be my younger brother in the future, don't be afraid, I will protect you in the future." After saying that, Xiaojun patted his little chest, which was not very strong.
Sister-in-law Yang couldn't help laughing out loud when she looked at her son's appearance of playing treasure, touched Qin Ke's sweet and slippery head, and said softly: "Xiao Qingtian, you can live in my house with peace of mind, stay with Xiaojun as a companion, although Xiaojun and his father are gone, Aunt Yang's family is not short of your food." ”
Qin Ketian felt the kindness of Sister-in-law Yang and Xiaojun, experienced a crossing, and experienced a annihilation, but she didn't expect to gain such kindness in this small village, and her heart was full of emotion, and she couldn't help but nod fiercely.
Seeing that Qin Ketian could stay, Xiaojun was so happy that he took Qin Ketian's hand and didn't let go, and said in a loud voice: "Mother, go and cook some delicious dishes, I have a younger brother!" ”
Sister-in-law Yang agreed to her son's request and said to Qin Ketian: "Qingtian, do you have a common name?" In the future, it will be difficult to call the law number again. ”
Qin Ketian secretly thought in his heart, the Great Xia Dynasty has a lot of respect for the people in Buddhism, and before sending me away, my grandfather deliberately asked me to disguise myself as a little monk just to go south, so that I would not encounter difficulties from others when looking for my unmasked brother.
Although the revenge has not been avenged, but the outside world is in chaos, Uncle Qin in order to save me to lead away the chasing soldiers, at this moment I am afraid that I have encountered an accident, I am still young without Uncle Qin to lead the plan to the south, it is better to settle in Sister-in-law Yang's house first, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and I will not die for revenge on the little girl! If nothing else, just to come into this world to love my grandfather and parents, I will definitely avenge you!
After thinking about what to do in the future, Qin Ketian said with a sweet smile to Sister-in-law Yang: "Aunt Yang, my common name is Qin Tian, I can't return to the vulgar for the time being, when I was a child, I was weak and sick and met my master, and the master said that if I want to grow up safely, I will enter the Buddhist sect until the year of the dance (thirteen to fifteen years old) before I can return to the vulgar." ”
After hesitating for a moment, Qin Ketian still didn't tell Aunt Yang the secret that she was a girl, and she must not involve Aunt Yang and Xiaojun in danger!
