(7) The past is like a dream
Ah Yan had a dream.
Snow-capped mountains in the distance, lush courtyards and well-paved cobblestone paths beneath you.
In the dream, she was bouncing around, laughing with another girl, and wrapping around a man. They have bells tied to their feet, and their sound is crisp, and they jingle when they move. The men have loving eyebrows and stroke their hair from time to time.
"Dust, Gardenia, don't always jump, be careful if you fall and break your appearance, no one will want it in the future." There was no harsh meaning between the man's words, "To be a lady and elegant woman." ”
"Gardenia, you have to study like a sister and practice hard. Master, tell me you're playing again. The man looked at the girl, and the girl's face was seven or eight points like her, but it was more beautiful as a girl.
"And you Chen'er, don't always look like a boy, I think Ah Sheng is more like a girl than you." After the man finished speaking, he turned to her again, "Although you are the eldest daughter and will be the pillar of the family in the future, you can't fail to marry." The man shook his head angrily and amusefully.
"I don't want to call me Chen'er, Daddy, you either call me Aji like A-Niang, or call me A-Chen like A-Sheng!" She stuck out her tongue, her expression was vivid, and her eyes were very smart.
"Why do you always want to call a boy by name. I think I'll be like your uncle in the future, calling you a little sparrow. "The man wanted to tease her, but he didn't want her to ask.
"Hahahaha, my sister is a little sparrow, I want to be a little phoenix!" Gardenia on the side snorted at her, happy to take advantage of her sister.
"Why?" She pretended to be so angry that she was going to fight Gardenia, and the two of them got into a mess around the man again.
"Father-in-law! Aji! A young man in Tsing Yi waved to them in the distance, and when he approached, he saw long eyebrows and sideburns, and his eyes were like peach blossoms.
"It's Ah Sheng. Looking for Aji? The man chuckled, "Well, you guys go play." ”
Ah Shengyu's face was slightly red, she scratched her head very embarrassed, and was about to take her hand, but she heard Gardenia say: "Daddy, Brother Ah Sheng doesn't wait for me, he only calls me sister, you don't care!" ”
The man looked at Ah Sheng, who was a little unbearable on his face, understood, and said to Gardenia: "You still want to play if you can't finish your homework?" Go, go back to your father and teach you well, and the master of the province will train you again. ”
"No, no, daddy is eccentric-" Gardenia was coquettish, but was pulled away by the man.
"Ah Ji, look—" The young man named Ah Sheng took out a brocade ribbon embroidered with flowers, "and hang a bell for you." ”
The young man's eyes seemed to have a sea of stars.
"Ah Sheng." She narrowed her eyes with a smile and hugged the boy's narrow waist, "Let's go swing." ”
She felt the boy's body stagnate.
"But if there is no one else, I won't have time to save you if you fall." Ah Sheng touched her head, still very gentle.
"I'm not going to fall, you'll be able to pick me up." She raised her head, her eyes like a crooked moon, "They must not be as powerful as us during the Medicine God Festival, and the color head must be ours!" ”
"How much do you want a spirit pet..."Ah Sheng smiled helplessly, "When you are sixteen years old, you can go to the secret realm of the forest to find it, why rush." ”
"Don't... Four years to go... I may not be able to meet good qualifications when I go to the secret realm, the color of the Medicine God Festival Swing Race is generally excellent, and the worst is purple. ”
Spiritual pet qualifications are generally divided into five levels, white, blue, purple, red, and gold. It's not that there is nothing better, it's just that no monk has caught a spirit pet more powerful than gold. Therefore, the golden spirit pet is only a once-in-a-century encounter, and it is more common in the future. However, signing a contract with a spirit pet requires the right time and place, and if the opportunity is not reached, it will not be forced.
The color head of the Medicine God Festival is the egg of the medicine snake, which can be hatched after signing a contract. Because the snake eggs are selected by the elders of the clan, they are often of good quality, so the qualifications are purple after hatching.
"A small medicine snake is satisfied?" Ah Sheng smiled, "Aren't you going to get a spirit pet that is stronger than my wind spirit bird?" ”
She buried her head in his arms embarrassedly, "I don't care if I regret it-"
"Hahaha," the boy laughed heartily.
Ah Yan woke up groggily, only to see the dark dormitory, silent.
She felt the corners of her eyes wet. She wiped her eyes and couldn't help but lick the water stains on the back of her hands.
It's salty.
