Chapter 1 The First Arrival

The carriage staggered for a long time, the heavy curtain obscured the light outside, dyed his dizzy head, began to guess what time it was, when he left home, his father's tears were reluctant, and suddenly jumped out, as if he had forgotten to hug the younger brother who was just babbling and entertaining himself, alas, I don't know when we can meet next time, or when the weather turns colder, go back to see them...

The carriage finally stopped, and after a while, the door was opened, and the cotton curtain was opened, and another girl came in, looking about the same age as herself, but a little stronger, the girl's face was full of tears, and her mouth was also pouting, it seemed that she had just cried hysterically, and now it was a resignation silence, fortunately she was not an enthusiastic person, so she walked quietly for a while.

The girl finally calmed down, and began to observe the decorations on the carriage and the other being, who was not interested in her and was alone. Maybe in the eyes of others, the appearance of being in a daze is very close to sadness, the girl bit her lip and asked, "Are you homesick too?" ”.... There was no response, and the girl continued: "My father and mother kept crying when I left, and I couldn't bear them. ”.... Still didn't respond, and kept up: "Why should I leave the house?" I just want to eat the steamed buns made by my mother at home, and I don't want to go anywhere. Woo woo woo ~ " The girl who didn't wait for a response seemed to have been touched by something and began to cry again

Dye was a little panicked for a while, although she was cold, she had no resistance to other people's tears, so she could only search her intestines and think about how to comfort her: "Maybe, there are delicious buns in the place where we are going...."The girl was crying, and suddenly paused, as if she was a little troubled about how to explain it, she was thinking about the taste of her mother rather than eating it..... The carriage was quiet again, one after another, there were a few more girls in the car, each of them was crying with red eyes, and some even got on the car and were pushed up by their father and mother in the crying, dyed as the patriarch on the car, it seemed to have laid a quiet tone, except for scattered sobs along the way, no one took the initiative to say anything

Finally, the carriage stopped again, after the door was opened, there were several girls who looked about the same age but were full of smiles on their faces, they warmly greeted the people on the car, and helped to pick up their respective baggage, the people on the car were still in a daze and had been welcomed into the gate, this is a simple farm yard built by the mountain, behind the wooden gate is a simple and even simple yard, in addition to the corn and pepper vegetables in the yard, the big stone mill in the corner, is some wooden frame that can not be seen at a glance, Behind the courtyard is a few rows of wooden houses, high and low, the highest one has three floors, the wooden buildings are all primary colors, but they are all hung with yarns of various colors, a gust of wind blows, large and small colorful yarns dance, and the surrounding gray mountains are reflected together, indescribable strange.

Everyone looked curiously everywhere in the courtyard, and then the old man who picked them up and walked over, stroked his beard, and said: "This will be your home in the future, these are your senior sisters, who came a few days earlier than you, if there is anything you don't understand, ask them, everyone will be a family in the future, and when you can take on a big responsibility, you can go back to see your parents, today all the way around, everyone has worked hard, Ah Yi, you take them to their respective rooms to rest." With that, the old man turned and walked towards a row of one-story houses in the courtyard.

The girl named Yi looked a few years older than the other girls, and the eldest sister had an atmospheric posture, and came over to assign everyone's rooms one by one, two girls in one room, both of them were a senior sister with a newcomer, and after each claimed someone, a group of more than a dozen girls walked to the three-story wooden building, and the senior sisters on the side took turns to explain: "This is our territory~": "Yes, yes, we live on the third floor~": "The first floor is a classroom, and there are different teachers to give lectures every day~": "Dinner is on the second floor, The cook's skills are good, but that's all she can do~" Just chattering, everyone went back to their rooms.

The corner of the stairs is the room of the dye, and the room with her is a tall and strong senior sister, and she is also the main topic provider along the way, and there is no intention to stop when she returns to the room, "Don't look at the desolation here, the little yellow flowers on the mountain are beautiful in the summer~" Dye could only work hard to cooperate and nodded, but his mind drifted away, thinking that he was really unlucky, and turned out of the mountain in his hometown, and before he glanced at the scenery outside, he was encircled in this mountain again, in her eyes, the mountain is the mountain, It is an obstacle to the unknown world outside.

It was completely dark, and the senior sister next to her also fell asleep in her own broken thoughts, Dye was still very energetic, the unspeakable emotions in her heart, dazed and a little sour, thinking that if she was at home, she had fallen asleep in her father's snoring and her brother's vague dream words at this hour, and she was tired, she quietly got up and walked out of the room.

The courtyard under the moonlight was quiet, there was no figure, occasionally you could hear the slight sound of the wind blowing the leaves, in addition to a hook of crescent moon in the sky, there were countless twinkling stars, embellished in the deep blue, spread out, until it was cut off by the mountain on the other side, Dye just stood so dumbfounded, looking at the farthest star, I don't know how long it had been standing, suddenly my thoughts were interrupted by a flute, the flute sound was tactful and melodious, like crying, even if there was no musical background, Dye still heard the god, and the heart gradually warmed up, It's a pity that her lazy mind didn't even think of finding the person who played the flute, and who was the person who couldn't sleep at night like her.

The day finally dawned, and she was dizzy and dizzy by her sister in the same room to wash, change clothes, and eat breakfast, until she sat in the classroom, she finally came back to her senses, remembering that when she was a child, she had asked her father and mother, why the younger brother next door went to the gentleman's house in the village every day to take classes, and she didn't have to go, and her father and mother were vague and vague to deal with the past every time, now I think about it, maybe because I know that she will always learn something different. The teacher of the first class was the old man who picked them up, with a beard on his face and a newly changed light cyan robe, which had the meaning of a little fairy wind and bones, "The old man is your teacher of literacy, poetry, and history, you call me master, and then the old man will study the writing, history and famous literary works of various countries and nationalities with you, and today I will start with the most basic." In the next few days, one after another courses such as music, medicine, martial arts, etc., came one after another, and there was not much time for dyeing to be in a daze.

In the blink of an eye, it has been more than half a year since I came here, and the surrounding mountains have grown all kinds of flowers and plants from the initial barrenness, and Dye finally recognized what the names of the dozen or so classmates around her are, especially her own roommates, for a long time, she was very vague about the name and appearance of this senior sister named Dan, and only remembered her gushing brain-piercing magic sound. More than a dozen girls gather together every day, often making her dizzy, except for this high point and that short point, there is no other difference, in her opinion, it is more difficult to recognize people than to endorse. Fortunately, these classmates are very easy to get along with, even if Dye occasionally calls the wrong name, everyone just laughs at her, and they don't mind, here, Dye is the youngest, and all the senior sisters take care of her, and even indulge her laziness.

Early this morning, the courtyard was lively, the master with Lin Daogu, who taught music and rhythm, and Cen Monk, who taught kung fu, formed a wonderful decoration team, hanging a painting here and placing a stake there, and even the class was not taught, just ordered everyone to read the book by themselves, a room of curious adolescent girls, in this case, naturally there was no energy to bury their heads in hard reading, and they got together in twos and threes to gossip, and the third aunt: "Is today the master's birthday?" Or is it a special day? Sixth woman: "It's impossible, I don't think it's the Taoist aunt who wants to be vulgar, put on a formation." ”...... Although Dye was also curious, laziness still occupied all her thoughts, but she vaguely looked at her master's appearance, and did not have any sense of festivity, but a little pathos and indignation.

In this way, until the evening, the sky has been darkened, and you can vaguely see the full moon hanging on the branches of the mountain like a silver plate, and the master beckons the girls to come to the yard, and the yard has been arranged into a different scene at this time, one by one the tall trees ** into the soil, staggered, as if placed according to some mysterious totem, each tall tree is topped with a burning brazier, and between the two highest stakes there is a huge canvas with a portrait of a human body and a snake tail, and it is impossible to distinguish between men and women, The body is bent into a strange posture, as if prostrate and as if to jump up, the slender eyebrows and eyes are in the sideburns, the corners of the mouth are slightly upturned as if smiling, one hand is behind the back, the hand vaguely seems to be holding something, but the other hand is stretched out into the air, forming a knot seal with five fingers pointing in different directions, the whole portrait is mysterious and bewitching under the moonlight and has an inexplicable sacredness. The Master is standing on a high platform opposite the portrait, and the other two teachers are standing at two corners of the high platform, and all three of them are facing a marble stone platform in the middle of the high platform, on which is placed a huge translucent crystal ball, and something seems to be flowing in the ball, shining with blue, blue, purple, and purple points of light. The three teachers were also dressed differently than usual, they were all dressed in colorful long shirts, and their waists were also wrapped with different colored yarns, and they had a long yarn behind them and dragged them to the ground.

The girls were stunned by the sight in front of them, and no one made a sound for a long time, although the white hair and white beard of the master clashed with this costume a little funny, but the solemn expression on his face made people not laugh, but gave birth to awe. The stage and the stage stood opposite each other like this, until the moon hung high in the middle of the sky, and suddenly the flames in the brazier on the wooden stake turned blue-purple, and the crystal ball on the marble platform turned into a flame-like orange-red, the master's expression became more and more solemn, he formed the same seal on his hand as the portrait pointed to the sky, and then chanted the words, and the other two teachers also made the seal, but it pointed to the crystal ball, then the two teachers suddenly spoke at the same time: "Kneel ~", the girls actually knelt quietly on the ground, The master's deep and distant voice sounded: "The descendants of the Yao clan promise their destiny, born in the shadow of the moon, the profit and loss are not lost, the ten-year sacrifice, Xing~" and then used an incomprehensible mysterious language for a long time, and then heard the two teachers shouting in unison: "Get up~" The girls only raised their bodies, but they still maintained their kneeling posture, and slowly the orange-red color in the crystal ball gradually turned back to blue-purple, and then it went out little by little like the flickering of the galaxy, and finally recovered into an ordinary transparent ball, and the three teachers put down their hands, But their faces were covered with tears and tiredness, and the master waved his hand weakly and said, "The old man knows that you must have a lot of doubts in your hearts, so you should go back to the class first, and the old man will solve them for you one by one." ”
