Chapter 1 Dressed as a little beggar

Next Chapter

Northern Yan Dynasty, 15th year of Tianshuo, Layue.

A deserted temple on the outskirts of Biansaiyong and Town, the main hall in the temple is dusty, the cobwebs are vertical and horizontal, the Buddha statue has been incomplete, and the murals are mottled and blurred because of the erosion of the years.

The papier-mâché doors and windows have long been broken, and the biting cold wind is breaking through the doors and windows, making a "whirring" sound.

Beneath the Buddha statue, covered with dry weeds, a young girl in shabby clothes lies on her back on the ground, her head resting on a futon that has long since been exposed to the surface of the straw mat.

The girl's brows were tightened, her eyes were closed, she was too cold, she shrunk up her little body and shivered, the cold wind broke through the doors and windows, and the messy hair on the girl's forehead blew with the cold wind.

"Hiss........."

The teeth couldn't stop chattering, Lin Jingyi was awakened by the cold, her consciousness returned to her brain, her hands kept rubbing her arms, and she couldn't stop trembling all over, only to feel that the cold wind was cold, and her face was like a knife.

She was obviously hit by a large truck off a cliff during a self-driving trip, and the car was destroyed and killed, didn't she die? I remember that it was a hot summer day, but what was the matter with this cold wind?

"Uh-huh........."

The pain in the back of her head made her let out a muffled snort, and when she opened her eyes, she was greeted by the roof of the house stacked on top of each other, which had fallen into disrepair and had countless points of light.

Looking at the leaky doors and windows all around, she lay on top of the messy hay, and the tips of the hay pierced through the holes in her clothes, making her uncomfortable.

With difficulty, he stood up and reached for the back of his head, but he felt a bulging and swollen bag.

The moment she touched the big bag, a large number of memories poured into her brain, and her skull was accompanied by an unbearable tingling pain, and in this cold wax moon, the tip of her forehead and nose were covered with beads of sweat.

In the fifth year of Tianshuo, the first emperor of the Northern Yan Dynasty, the Lin family, because of offending the powerful in the court, the Shang could not fight for power after all, and was finally crowned with the crime of bullying the king, the emperor Nian made a lot of contributions to the court at the beginning of the founding of the country, and exempted him from the great crime of punishing the nine clans, and confiscated his family property, and all the old and young people of the Lin family were exiled to the side of the country, and they were not allowed to enter Beijing forever.

Displaced all the way, many family members died in exile, including the original owner's father, before the house, the original owner's mother was pregnant with the original owner, she should have been born with a golden spoon, but she was born at the wrong time, and the original owner's mother also died of a blood collapse caused by dystocia.

In the end, only Lin Xiao, the head of the Lin family, was left, that is, the grandfather of the original owner, and walked to the exile place with the original owner who was waiting to be fed.

For as long as the original owner can remember, both grandparents and grandchildren have lived by begging in this Yonghe Town.

In the winter when the original owner was five years old, her grandfather braved the snow to go out to beg, but when he returned, he contracted a cold, and the grandfather and grandson had no money for treatment.

In the end, the original owner was left alone in this world, begging every day for a living, and in the past five years, every time she found a good place to beg, she would be chased away by her peers, chased by the children in the streets and alleys, and even more excessively, she threw cow dung at her, but she had no power to resist, so she could only bear it silently.

For five years, he hid in Tibet in the east of Yonghe Town, carefully begging for survival in a harsh environment, and finally lived to be ten years old.

However, just this morning, when the original owner was begging on the street, he met a kind person and gave her three copper coins, but she was reluctant to spend them, and happily returned to this broken temple with three copper coins, never thinking that she had already been targeted by her peers when she got these three copper coins.

Just as she was about to put the copper coins in the place where she usually hid the money, several colleagues rushed in, found the place where she hid the money, and snatched all the savings she had saved by begging for the past few years.

Weak, she had to fight back, but after all, she couldn't beat the other party, and she was knocked to death by the other party in the competition, and she was knocked to death, and she was unlucky.

A large amount of information poured into the mind, and after receiving this information, the sting gradually disappeared, and the two memories fused together.

I can't help but want to scold, what is this? She is a modern surgical saint, and she is dressed as a beggar chick, why can't she be dressed as a princess or a daughter or something?

Fortunately, she was receptive, and finally accepted the fact that she was a little beggar.

Staggered up, Lin Jingyi found that she was wearing a long coat full of holes, and according to the memory of the original owner, she knew that this dress was still her grandfather's, and her grandfather changed his clothes to be shorter for her to wear, and her grandfather also made it up for her when he was still there.

She hasn't made it up since her grandfather left, but she's been wearing it for five years and can't afford to throw it away.

looked at her feet, she was wearing small cloth shoes that couldn't be broken anymore, and the holes in the toe toe could count the toes, Lin Jingyi was speechless, and raised a few naughty toes.

The little toes were black and not slippery, I don't know if it was mud or dirt, which made Lin Jingyi extremely disgusted, but she was very helpless, and decided to fetch water to wash it well.

But she can only take cold water, and she can't boil hot water now.

Lin Jingyi came to the ancient well of the broken temple against the cold wind, used the strength of nine cows and two tigers, filled half a bucket of water, and tested the water temperature with her hands.

Fortunately, the water in the well is not cold in winter, but still warm, and the water in the well is warm in winter and cool in summer.

Whooting and walking into the hall with half a bucket of water, he found a place where he felt hidden, put down the bucket, and found a rag, which the original owner had been using to wash his face, although it was a little broken, but it was still clean.

Removing all the clothes on her body, Lin Jingyi's teeth were suddenly so cold that she quickly wiped her whole body after the rags were wet.

Seeing her shriveled and sallow body, she frowned in disgust, in her previous life, she had a hot body and excellent appearance, but suddenly became like this, she couldn't accept it in her heart.

After wiping it for a while, it looked much cleaner than before, Lin Jingyi's legs were already shivering from the cold, and her whole body was covered with goosebumps.

After getting dressed, Lin Jingyi walked behind the Buddha statue, this is where the original owner sleeps at night, it is a small space made of several broken boards, and when you sleep in it, you have to shrink up, otherwise you won't be able to sleep.

There were a lot of rags on the floor that I didn't know where to pick up, but it was better than using straw to keep it warm, and there was no quilt.

When he sleeps, he uses a rag as a quilt, and that rag is the tablecloth of the incense table in the temple.

Looking at such a harsh living environment, it is really a miracle that the original owner was able to live to be ten years old.

But after all, she only lived to be ten years old, and I hope that she will have loving parents and family in the next life, and she will no longer have to worry about being picked up by her peers when begging, nor will she have to worry about being thrown by children with cow dung, let alone afraid of having a meal or not.

Maybe leaving is a relief for the original owner, and let herself live in this world for her in the future!
