Zhang Heling was satisfied, "Yes, Mr. Kong also said so, parasitic mayflies in the world, a millet in the sea." Mourning the moments of my life, envying the infinity of the Yangtze River, he likes this kind of hermit life very much, but in the end it is a little far away, and he can't leave the troubles of the world. Zhang Heling looked longing, Zhang Erzhen looked at his younger brother with a fantasy look quite sympatheticly, that's it, Baguwen has not corroded his mind yet, this is really great, dreams are always there.

"Sister, you said that if we leave in the future, when will I see the classmates I know here?"

"Heling, to be honest, do you miss your father?"

Zhang Heling scratched her head a little embarrassed, and said shyly: "It's not, it's just that I miss Yan'er a little." I knew that we had been here for so long, and I had given him all those things at that time, and I had no time to play when I studied in the Tangwen Pavilion all day. ”

Zhang Erzhen sighed: "Although life in Shandong is good, I also want to go back." "The New Year of the two of them is a bit deserted.

When Zhang Erzhen and Zhang Heling nested by the warm stove and told the story with their eyelids, Uncle Zhang had already taken the little servants to light the New Year's firecrackers, and Zhang's mansion was jubilant, and the sound of firecrackers was faintly heard from far and near the city, which was lively and festive, with a strong New Year's flavor.

"Reward!" Zhang Heling waved his hand, and the maids waiting outside thanked him in unison, and were overjoyed, and the nurse sent down the red envelopes one by one, and when the last one was distributed, she stared at the stars in the sky and was slightly distracted. In addition to the nurse missing Ruyue, Mingyue, who was giggling among the girls, was also a little stunned, since she was gone, it was really awkward in the past six months, and when serving the girl, there was also less Ruyue Mali on the side, it seemed that ...... I'm getting used to it. After everyone kept the New Year, it was time to rest, Zhang Heling finally couldn't support it and fell asleep in the warm pavilion, Zhang Erzhen helped tuck the quilt and went back to the inner room.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, she has been here for many years......

The New Year is the most lively, with lantern dances, dragon juggling, parties, guessing jokes, pot throwing, polo and other activities in an endless stream, and the food and wine are even more intoxicating. Zhang Erzhen has lost interest in lantern shows, and something happens every time she goes to see lanterns, so she simply doesn't go out. She didn't restrain Zhang Heling, and instructed Ah Chu Ah Shan to follow her son well, so Zhang Heling was not seen in the house all day long, it was the age of playfulness, and it was easy to relax, just like a rabbit in the forest. Because it had just snowed heavily, the sound of dripping snow outside came in, Zhang Erzhen wore a new water-red gold silk jacket, sat on the soft low pier and nested by the stove, knocking melon seeds in a daze, and didn't even know that Mingyue pushed the door in.

"Girl, if you are very sleepy, you might as well go to bed and rest. Fang Caili came here, saying that there was no movement in the house next door, and no one came in or out. Mingyue neatly put down the beads and chains, stuffed a few pieces of silver silk carbon into the stove, and muttered: "It's very cold outside now, Zhang Bocai took the people in the house except for the snow, and the girl still didn't go out, it was so cold that her feet hurt." Mama Hua went to the greenhouse again in the morning, to see if the greenhouse was frozen, no one persuaded it, the nurse was not at ease, and she also followed. ”

Zhang Erzhen opened his eyes leisurely, agreed in a daze, and put a melon seed in his mouth, the New Year was too boring, and now he couldn't even fight the landlord: "Mingyue, go and call Jin Qiu Yinqiu, and then take out the cards, I will teach them to play cards." ”

Mingyue asked, "Girl, aren't you sleeping?"

"What do you sleep, I won't be able to sleep at night if I sleep again. Zhang Erzhen rubbed her sleepy eyes and urged Mingyue to hurry up. Jin Qiu Yinqiu was wiping the snow on the window lattice with a cloth, and when she heard the bright moon calling, she hurriedly followed in. Zhang Erzhen had already prepared a few small tables with four plans, shuffling the cards over and over again. Jin Qiu Yinqiu didn't know why, sat down in the girl's smiling eyes, watched the girl's white hands like onion and jade shuffle, and it was too late to praise, Zhang Erzhen had already urged them: "Come to ——, draw cards!" So, the New Year of the Zhang family ended in the voice of the eldest prince going out to play all day long and the eldest girl pulling the girl to fight the landlord all day long.

Finally, at dusk when the ice and snow were melting and the willows were beginning to sprout, a low-key carriage appeared in front of the next house, running in two steps, and the sweat on his forehead flowed: "Girl! Girl!

The yellow sunset with a unique depression, scattered a piece of it, Zhang Erzhen is rolling up her sleeves in the greenhouse to pick up the newly grown peonies, the bright red petals are tightly clustered together, like the bright morning sun in summer, Mama Hua feels like a girl's bright cheeks, looking vivid. Suddenly hearing Liwei's voice, Zhang Erzhen put the flower branch in Mingyue's hand and ran out, and asked excitedly, "Have you taken a closer look?"

Li Wei nodded again and again, although he didn't know why, but the girl sent him to pay attention to the movements in the next house made him feel very honored. Zhang Erzhen immediately instructed Mingyue to fetch water, and prepared to pack up and go to visit next door. An hour later, Zhang Erzhen was already standing in front of the house. The red lantern that had not been lit during the New Year in the house flashed with a faint candlelight, and the person who greeted him was a strange little brother, who looked very ordinary, with a Chinese face and thick eyebrows, and invited Zhang Erzhen's master and servant into the courtyard.

Zhang Erzhen felt embarrassed for her uninvited, and secretly blamed herself for coming back tomorrow, now that it was dark, Mr. Fang must be very tired when he came around. After Zhang Erzhen drank three bowls of tea, Mr. Fang finally appeared. Wearing brown and blue scholar's clothes, with a thick long beard, and her long hair was simply pulled up by an ebony hairpin, she was slightly stunned when she saw Zhang Erzhen sitting upright.

Mr. Fang coughed lightly, Zhang Erzhen saw the person coming, and hurriedly stood up to say hello, and for a moment he was a little dazed, what did he want to do when he ran over? Mr. Fang smiled and said: "Even if Miss Zhang doesn't come, I will send someone to the house to disturb me." The girl has adhered to a few rules over the years, and has lived around with Mr. Zhang, which can be regarded as seeing the scene of the present day, Miss Zhang and the old man are here, take you to meet someone. ”

Fangfu was originally a three-entry courtyard, Zhang Erzhen followed Mr. Fang through a few doors, and felt that Fangfu was also too big, and he was about to catch up with Daguanyuan (exaggerated), Mingyue was also very puzzled, and she was afraid of getting lost. Walking straight to a bronze wood-colored door, Mr. Fang stopped: "Miss Zhang can just go in with me." ”

Mingyue was used to being left outside to watch the door, and Zhang Erzhen followed Mr. Fang in with some trepidation. As soon as you enter the door, there is a large translucent screen of flowers and birds, and the room is lit with wrist-thick white wax, and the candlelight is transparent. Behind the screen are several pearl curtains with vertical soles, and a person sits faintly behind them. Mr. Fang made a gesture of invitation, and Zhang Erzhen took small steps to open the curtain of the jingling bell, only to see an old man with a dark face, staring at her. The old man was dressed in a dark gray cotton shirt, covered with a black leather coat, stepping on thick cotton shoes with soft soles, a pair of deep and shining eyes, a face with furrows and ravines, and a white beard that reached to his chest.

Mr. Fang respectfully bent down and introduced, "Master, this is the first person destined for the disciple to find, and he is now twelve years old. ”

Zhang Erzhen saw the old man's white beard tremble a few times, and his hoarse voice revealed: "You are a child with good luck, unlike the old man, in the year of the sixtieth year, all the strength in his body has been used up, and there is no longer a mental struggle." Child, have you had a good time over the years?" The old man was like a kind and kind elder, although the words were concerned and concerned, but the still smart eyes were fixed on Zhang Erzhen, Zhang Erzhen felt that the old man was not as charitable as he thought: "The old man is well, thank you for your concern, Zhen Zhen is excellent." ”

"Do you know why I want to see you?" the old man's skinny hand reached forward, and Mr. Fang nudged Zhang Erzhen, who took a few steps forward and let the old man look up and down.

"Why are you here again?" The old man kept nodding, obviously very satisfied with the young skin in front of him, and continued: "I think I was so young back then, I can't get used to the life here, I have been thinking about going back, I have searched all kinds of ways, tried many things, so many years have passed in a blink of an eye, child, it is also your luck, the old man, I have no energy to toss, but the old man can help you, where did you come from, where to go back, are you willing?"

The old man's words were very loving and gentle, like a grandfather who loves his children and grandchildren coaxing the child, Zhang Erzhen was a little vigilant, and said: "The old gentleman might as well say it directly, let's open the skylight and say bright things, don't hide it, but in the end it was misunderstood and grudged." ”

The old gentleman laughed loudly, and his voice was loud, which made Zhang Erzhen a little confused. Mr. Fang helped the old gentleman to calm down, and the old man smiled with satisfaction: "Ming people don't say secret words, since you know the glasses before, it means that we are destined." You've been living a well-behaved life all these years...... In the early years, you left Shandong with your father and went to the capital, and then went to Wuchang, your father's career is good, and you returned to the capital in a few years, but now you ...... "Zhang Erzhen slandered, since you know it so clearly, you pretended to ask me just now." The old man naturally saw Zhang Erzhen's wild roll of his eyes, and he didn't care: "I don't know how you came to this world, and it probably won't be a good thing to think about it." You died before, this is a fact, but now it is different, after years of experimental observation, astronomy, geography, humanities and meteorology, southeast, northwest and northwest have been walked by me, and finally found a way to go back, haha, you girl is lucky, just in time for this time. Don't blame me for inquiring about you, you have done this kind of helpless move to Shandong, which shows that you are not doing well now. I'll just be a good person again, how about you?"

Zhang Erzhen glanced at Mr. Fang suspiciously, and Mr. Fang shifted his gaze a little embarrassed, asking if a little girl was indeed not a glorious thing. Zhang Erzhen was even more confused, and asked tentatively: "Can you really let me go back to the past?

"You cunning little girl, what Chairman Mao, the old man remembers that Chairman Mao has been gone for many years. The old man stroked his white beard and smiled: "How is it, are you looking forward to it?" The haze in the old man's eyes subsided a little, I don't know if it was Zhang Erzhen's hallucination, he always felt like a big bad wolf in sheepskin, so he decisively refused: "The old gentleman is kind, I can't bear it." ”

The old man frowned dishappily and said, "You have arrived in such a field, I will help you, but you don't appreciate it?"

"Old gentleman, what you said about leaving three points and seven points, how can I appreciate it?" Zhang Erzhen quietly took a few steps back, because the old gentleman's gaze seemed to be quenched with poison, and she panicked when she saw it.

After a long time, the old man waved away Mr. Fang, leaving only Zhang Erzhen standing in front of him, and said slowly: "The land of southern Yunnan is full of evil obstacles, strange clouds, and camphor trees cover flaws. There are few people, wild beasts roam, venom Gu worms, and it is a matter of an instant to kill people. As the saying goes, things are divided into two poles, mixed blessings and sorrows, the old man has been stationed in the depths of the jungle for many years, and he has dragged a few local Gu curators to study for several years, and only on a summer day when there is a thunderstorm, guess what? In just a moment, the white mist shrouded, and the living creature in the cage was gone, and the old man's years of hard work finally came to fruition, great goodness, great goodness!"

The old man seemed to be a little crazy, Zhang Erzhen could understand his state of being in a state of demonic confusion, and he had devoted himself to studying for several years, and it was indeed not easy for the results to appear, but he was a little puzzled: "How do you know where that lab rat is?" Even if it really travels through time and space, maybe it will go to the Shang Dynasty. "That's miserable, it's better to stay here.

The old man smiled mysteriously and said: "The old man has studied for many years, so he naturally knows that he doesn't say 100 percent, but 80 percent of the time is right." How's it going, little girl?"

Something exciting...... After Zhang Erzhen finished speaking, she asked on her face: "If this method is okay, why don't you just buy a dead slave to do the experiment, and when the success rate reaches 99%, the old gentleman can go back." ”

The old man pretended to be profound: "If you find someone to come, where he will be sent, the old man can't guarantee it." Only you...... or people like us to go back to that place. The old man doesn't lie about it, little girl, you have good luck!"

In the past 12 years, her luck has been really bad, and she has been unlucky, drought, famine, and earthquakes, how is this good? Now there is still a 20 percent failure rate, in case she is the 100 percent 20 percent: "Thank you, old man, I think it's very good here, and I don't want to go back......
