Chapter 25: The Dream (Part II)

Turning a corner in front of you, the line of sight in front of you suddenly opened up, and what appeared in front of you was a delicate arch bridge carved from a single piece of jade.

The arch bridge is about two meters wide, the bridge deck is seamless, carved with flowers, and the railings on both sides are small and delicate, and the surface is carved with some patterns, which is amazing.

The bridge stands on a small river less than two meters wide.

The river is crystal clear, with lotus leaves spreading out on the surface and water lilies in full bloom.

And among these water lilies, there are carp swimming.

This carp is golden all over, and when it swims, it is very beautiful.

They swim around the lotus leaves, sometimes together, sometimes scattered, sometimes chasing and playing, almost without stopping for a moment, and they seem very lively.

As Song Jianqiu's footsteps continued to move forward, she soon came to the fence at the head of the jade bridge, and immediately saw an antique pavilion surrounded by strange flowers and trees.

This is an octagonal quadrangular heavy eaves pavilion, just like its name, there is a slightly smaller quadrangular pavilion eaves at the top, and the bottom is the octagonal pavilion eaves, and the upper and lower layers are two layers, so it is called the heavy eaves pavilion.

The whole heavy eaves pavilion, also like a whole piece of white jade carved out, the eaves warped, glazed net tiles, eight pillars support the top of the pavilion, carved on the top of the dragon flying phoenix, fairy deer unicorn and other fairy birds and beasts, and the fence that connects the eight pillars around is hollowed out, carved with strange flowers and fairy grass, lotus swimming fish, etc.

All the carvings, whether they are animals or plants, are lifelike, at a glance, as if they are alive, only carefully identified, can distinguish the real from the fake, and do not feel that people sigh ingenious.

After looking at it for a moment, Song Jianqiu's gaze no longer rested on the pavilion, but on a woman standing in front of the fence of the small river diagonally opposite.

What a beautiful woman!

waist-length long black hair, faint willow eyebrows, a pair of almond eyes under the eyebrows, a small Yao nose, a face like clotted fat, and thin lips are as pink as new......

Song Jianqiu racked his brains and thought about it for a long time, but finally felt that such a description not only did not describe one-tenth of the woman's beauty, but felt a sense of blasphemy.

And even if it is an idiom to describe a beautiful woman, such as the appearance of the flower and the moon, the national color and the fragrance, the shy flowers of the closed moon, and the country and the city, etc., it is not very appropriate to put it on the woman.

She was too beautiful to describe in words, but she wasn't the kind of beauty that was addictive.

This is a very magical thing, obviously indescribably beautiful, but it is not fascinating, but after admiring the woman's appearance for a moment, Song Jianqiu shifted his attention to the other party's dress.

The woman wore a silk sleeveless bandeau that exposed her small and sexy navel, and she wore loose silk trousers with a light gauze skirt over the trousers, which was not too flashy and had no extra decorations, but it was unexpectedly very compatible with the woman, as if she should have worn it like this.

However, on the whole, the woman's outfit is somewhat similar to the style of Arabia, but mixed with some ancient Chinese style, giving people a plausible, but very harmonious feeling.

Song Jianqiu couldn't tell what kind of country's costume this was, and he couldn't tell what kind of place it was.

The woman stood in front of the fence carved from white jade, opposite the slope of Song Jianqiu, only separated by a small river less than two meters wide, and there was no obstruction between the two of them.

However, as if she did not see her presence, the woman only gently sprinkled some fish food into the creek in front of the fence.

So, the golden swimming fish, which had been chasing and playing, gathered around the woman's side and scrambled to grab the food.

Song Jianqiu felt that she should be dreaming now, but she clearly knew that she was dreaming.

Many people have had this kind of lucid dreaming, and she is no exception.

According to past experience, in this kind of dream, as a dreamer, as long as the will is strong enough, he can change the scene in the dream to a certain extent.

However, when she just wanted to cross the jade bridge and get to know the woman in the past, she found that her body did not listen to her, no matter how she drove her, she could only stand still, standing in front of the fence at the head of the bridge, looking at the woman's every move on the other side of the river.

This is very unscientific!

But there have been a lot of unscientific things recently, and she has become a little used to it, since she can't move, she will dispel the past thoughts, stay where she is, and see what she wants to do in the end of this dream.

She was not asked to wait long, and just after the woman on the other side of the river sprinkled the fish food for the third time, a woman dressed in palace clothes and like a maid brought a monk over.

Although the maid who led the way can't be compared with this woman, her appearance is also very beautiful, but Song Jianqiu doesn't care about this, but thinks that if she can be driven by the maid's subordinates, this woman is obviously not rich or expensive, but she is in such a garden, making an appointment with a monk, this plot seems to be a little wrong, right?

Although her mind was spinning in her heart, she couldn't move or make a sound at this time, so she could only stand dumbfounded, watching the development on the other side.

The maid led the monk to the woman, curtsied her knees, and turned away.

This monk has no hair and beard, his face is kind and kind, and he always maintains a gentle smile on his face, which makes people feel very relieved and peaceful when they see it.

The woman began to speak when she met the monk, but she saw that their mouths were moving one by one, but she could not hear the slightest sound, and it looked like a mime.

Although Song Jianqiu was curious, he couldn't do anything, so he could only stand.

However, the strange thing is that after a while, she suddenly heard the voice of the other side again, and only heard the monk's voice come out, which is a very inexplicable sentence: "...... People are not people. ”

"No one, no one." The woman replied.

"Flowers, what?" Monk humane.

"Spend the number of days!" The woman answered.

"Fish and dragon into the sea."

"Enter the sea and know when to return."

"Blind eyes."

"God knows!"

“……”

A woman and a monk asked and answered in this way, and had a short and full of Zen dialogue.

At the beginning, after Song Jianqiu heard it, he could still think about it and understand what he meant, but later, what the two said became more and more profound, more and more obscure, and after listening to it, he only felt that he understood it or not, but if he really wanted to think about it, he only felt that his mind was confused, and he couldn't think of a reason.

In the end, she could only write it down by swallowing the dates, and then she would have time to study it carefully in the future.

Here she couldn't feel the passage of time, and the two of them didn't know how long the question and answer had been going on, and when this conversation was over, the monk smiled and said, "The palace master has a deeper understanding of Buddhism, what a blessing!" ”

"It's not because of you!" The woman's face was angry at the monk's praise.

"How can it be said that you fell for the old monk?" The monk still smiled: "The palace master is a person who believes in his word, and now the old monk has another fight, I don't know if the palace master is willing?" ”

"I lost to you last time because of this, and this time you are looking for me, do you think I'm better at pitting?"

The woman who is called the palace master has raised her eyebrows, but with her appearance, even if she is angry, she looks unusually cute, and people can't help but want to reach out and touch her face.

"It's good, it's boring, why not give it a try?" The monk didn't care at all that the palace master was angry, and folded his hands.

"In vain, you are still an arhat fruit position, and you are so easy to fight!" The woman reprimanded.

"This fight is not the other. Fight is just a title, the result is the most important thing. The monk was unmoved.

"Bald donkey, I'm not afraid of you! Draw the line! I'll do it! The woman has her hands on her hips, a shrew arguing, and a mixed posture on the road, but she is beautiful, and everything she does gives people a feeling of no momentum.

However, when Song Jianqiu saw the woman's appearance, she felt that this woman who didn't know whether she was called a princess or a palace master, and her temperament was quite straightforward.

As for what kind of fight it is, she knows what it means, but it's actually just gambling, and in ancient times, it was called gambling by ***.

"How about taking one life as the limit and one realm as the plate?" The monk said.

"Yes!" The woman agreed very simply, so much so that Song Jianqiu didn't know what these two people were betting on, how they won, and what if they lost.

"Then wait for the streamer to shift." The monk folded his hands, proclaimed the Buddha's name, and said, "The old monk will take his leave." ”

"Sending off!" The woman shouted angrily, and immediately a maid came out and led the monk away.

After the monks left, in this fairyland-like garden, only Song Jianqiu and this woman who didn't know if she was a princess or a palace master were left.

The woman continued to sprinkle fish food, attracting a large number of golden carp to gather.

After sprinkling the fish food twice, the woman stopped her movements and looked down, as if admiring the golden carp in the water, as if she were watching the posture of the water lilies.

After a while, the woman raised her head and looked straight at Song Jianqiu, with a smile on her face.

Obviously, he just looked across the river, but this glance seemed to have traveled through a long time, crossed layers of space, and after an unknown distance, thousands of mountains and rivers were not enough to describe, and finally fell on Song Jianqiu's body.

Song Jianqiu was a little at a loss, she didn't know what this meant, she could only clearly feel that the woman opposite was looking her up and down with her eyes, and after a while, she nodded lightly and said, "...... Let me down. ”

The voice did not come to her ears at once, but gradually grew from small to large, the first sound was faint, but the last word was as bright as a bell.

However, although I didn't hear the first few words, I guessed from the last three words, the whole sentence should be 'don't let me down'.

What do you mean?

What the hell?

Song Jianqiu was confused and looked inexplicable.

At this moment, a carp suddenly jumped up from the water in the middle of the river, and its golden body full of streamlined beauty brought a long splash towards her.

She subconsciously reached out to take it, and when she looked at it again, there was suddenly an extra thing in her hand!

When I looked down, I realized that it was actually a carp pendant!

Obviously, this carp pendant was transformed by the golden carp that had just jumped out of the water.

Sent her?

Without waiting for her to take a closer look, or for her to thank her, she suddenly felt that the whole space had darkened.

She subconsciously opened her eyes, and the sky was bright.
