Chapter 230: Like a Dream Pavilion, a Big Dream Lasts for Years
The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and blows down, and the stars are like rain.
The 15th Lantern Festival of the first lunar month is the first full moon night of the new year. When the dazzling fireworks bloom in the deep sky, after tonight, it means that the past year has truly come to an end.
Just as Huan'er's front feet were excitedly chasing the team of lanterns and walking the bridge, under the steps of Rumeng Pavilion, an old Taoist wearing a cyan robe and a white beard suddenly appeared.
I saw him holding a "fortune-telling divination" cloth banner in one hand, and the short beard in the other hand, smiling and nodding at the woman in the Rumeng Pavilion as if he was quite satisfied, and then raised his voice and said, "That's good, it's good... It's a good saying, 'Life is long, no matter what, always try to rely on yourself.'" ’”
When the woman in the pavilion heard the voice, she was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise, "Who is talking there?" However, in his heart, he faintly felt that this voice sounded a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
At this time, the old Taoist in the green robe took out a copper bell, shook it unhurriedly, and then walked up the steps into the Rumeng Pavilion slowly, and shouted twice in his mouth: "Fortune telling, fortune telling, no money......
"It turned out to be a Taoist who traveled all over the world, and the little woman was really rude, rude." The woman said apologetically, and fumbled to get up and bow to her to apologize.
When the old man in the green robe saw it, he hurriedly pressed it down, and said, "Miss is inconvenienced, so there is no need to be polite." Poor Road is just attracted by the beautiful scenery here tonight like a paradise, and I am tired of wandering, I wonder if I can take a break with Miss in this Dream Pavilion? ”
The woman smiled and said, "Of course, this pavilion was built on the side of the road, and it was originally a place for all pedestrians to rest. ”
"In that case, then I thank Miss for not giving up." The old man in the green robe also responded with a smile and said politely, and then leaned the cloth banner in his hand against the vermilion pillar on the side of the pavilion and sat down.
After a closer look, the green-robed Taoist leader asked, "Dare to ask what is the name of the young lady?" But locals? This is even more revealing, why do you rest here alone? ”
The woman smiled, and after thinking for a while, she only said, "I went out shopping with Huan'er, because today is a good festival, and I can't let Huan'er's festival be unhappy because of my own reasons." So, let her follow the team to the lantern and walk the bridge. And I... Because of the eyes, I can only stay here and wait for her to come back. As for my name and the rest, I can't hide it... In fact, I am not only blind... And also amnesia. So, I don't know who my surname is and where I live? What happened again? I only heard from the old lady who rescued me that I had been washed down by the river a few days ago, on a thunderclap and rainy night. ”
"I see, I didn't expect Miss's fate to be so calamitous and difficult!" The old man in the green robe sighed when he heard it. However, when he looked at the past, he saw that the woman's face still had a peaceful and gentle smile, which was very beautiful.
The chief stared at the strong and optimistic woman in front of him, and said after a while: "Fang Cai Poor Dao heard what the young lady said outside the pavilion, and he was quite self-reliant, and he admired it very much. In fact, there are many times in life when 'Seong loses his horse, and he doesn't know if he is blessed'. Why don't you try it, not with your own eyes, but with your purest heart
To experience the world, maybe you will see more things that you have never seen before. ”
"Something you've never seen before?" When the woman heard this, her brows frowned slightly and she wondered.
"Miss, might as well give it a try what Poor Dao said?" The green-robed Taoist leader glanced at the silence around him and said mysteriously.
The woman thought for a while, and according to what the old Taoist in the green robe said, she held her breath and tried to relax slowly, forgetting all the hustle and bustle around her, until she seemed to have entered a deep sleep.
At this moment, the green-robed old man slowly got up and paced close to the woman, slowly stretched out a palm, and began to exercise towards the wound on her head, instilling her true qi into the woman's body continuously.
And in the woman's dream, a wide avenue with crowds and traffic first surfaced. Then, in a set of high-ceilinged duplex buildings with excellent lighting that takes in the beautiful scenery of the rivers and lakes outside the window, a woman with purple mulberry silk bathrobes, graceful posture, condensed red lips, and a plain posture of washing away the lead bloom appeared A living and fragrant white-skinned woman. For some reason, the woman suddenly fell to the ground. At this moment, she was standing only a few steps away from the woman, trying to help her up, but she couldn't do anything, and all she held in her hands was empty. So, she squatted in front of the woman, trying to see her face clearly, but the harder she tried, the more blurred it became. Suddenly, a dazzling light appeared in front of the two of them, and a wall gradually appeared in the light, and as the wall became clearer and clearer, it was like a strange door to time and space was gradually opened, and the woman on the ground fainted instantly, and the light disappeared.
The dream changed, and on the edge of a cliff, a woman who looked quite beautiful and temperamental and was about to give birth was approached step by step by several black-clothed masked strong men towards the edge of the cliff. When there was no way to retreat, the woman reluctantly glanced at the figure of a boy hiding not far away, lifted her feet slightly, closed her eyes and jumped, and fell into the cliff. Seeing all this tragedy happening, he hurriedly reached out to catch the woman, but he couldn't catch anything in the same way, and he fell lightly down the cliff. Halfway up the cliff, on a steep cliff, a man and a woman were collecting medicine and rescued the woman, but they were told that only one of them could be saved. Without hesitation, the woman chose to give birth to the child, and after entrusting it to the man and the woman, she swallowed.
The dream flashed again, and in the blink of an eye, the man and the woman had raised the woman's orphan. One day, the orphan was feeding fish in a lotus pond in a mansion that looked familiar, when she suddenly saw a colorful phoenix winking at her in the pond, and she was frightened and accidentally fell into the water. Standing next to the orphan, she stretched out her hand to pull it back almost at the same time, but she could only watch the orphan beat the pool desperately until it sank to the bottom of the pool, and there was no longer a trace of ripples and splashes on the surface of the water. After he was rescued by the people in the house, he has been unconscious ever since.
Until a year later, one night, thunder rumbled, downpours rain, and dazzling lightning streaked across the night sky. Suddenly, a scorching light fell from the sky, just like the colorful phoenix that inhabited the pond. But this time, it hovered high in the night sky, stretched out its beautiful phoenix wings, and slumped down into the attic of the mansion's backyard. That night, the woman's orphan finally woke up.
At the end of the dream, it was also about to give birth
On the edge of the cliff where the woman fell. The woman's orphan also fell into it, and this time she was held tightly by a man with a grim and majestic line on his face, who lay on the thorn bushes on the edge of the cliff, blood running down his arm, but still holding on. Eventually, one of the branches connecting them suddenly broke off by an external force, and the two fell into the cliff together.
At this time, standing beside the woman, his eyes were tightly closed to the blue-robed Taoist who was doing his work, his face gradually showed a lot of weakness, and a lot of fine beads of sweat had oozed from the woman's forehead. However, his mouth suddenly murmured like a nightmare, "There are times in life that must be there in the end, and there is no time in life when you don't force it, the cycle of cause and effect, the contract of a hundred generations, the flowers bloom and fall, and what comes is safe." ”
Hearing this, the old man in the green robe immediately withdrew his strength, slowly opened his eyes, lifted the corner of the robe and sat back in Fang Cai's position.
Then, I saw that the woman also took a deep breath, as if she had finally woken up from a deep dream. Then he frowned, and asked with admiration but also full of doubts, "What the Taoist chief said is true, feel the world with my heart, I have really seen a lot of pictures that I have never seen before, but unfortunately everything is only vague, and even seems to be a little difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood." ”
Hearing this, the old man in the green robe stroked his beard, and said with a smile on his chin, "True and false, virtual and real, this world is just a mirror, and in the end, it is just a floating cloud." ”
The woman smiled when she heard this, and then said with a look of disappointment and pain, "In my dream, I saw many women in danger, but I watched them, but I couldn't save them, and I couldn't even see their appearances, so I could only let them die." ”
The Taoist of Tsing Yi replied, "Everyone's life and death cycle, past and present lives, are already predestined, but people in the world are always so obsessed. But the more people want to grasp the things they try to grasp, the more they care about the things, the more they can't grasp them, and the more they can't keep them. It's like an hourglass, the tighter your fist is clenched, the faster it drains away, and the less you can hold on, until you end up empty-handed. ”
The woman was silent for a while, then suddenly touched her chest and said, "However, after seeing those in my dream, my heart suddenly hurts so much, so weak. ”
The old man in the green robe stroked his white beard, took a moment and said, "The reason why you can't save them is because your fate has not arrived at that time. But although you can't save them in your dreams, you can save more people in this world because of them. The most important thing is to cherish all the moments of encounter and possession while it is still in your hand. Everything follows fate, does not evade, does not force, the Tao is natural. ”
At this time, the woman who was full of sadness because of this big dream, I am afraid that I have no intention of understanding this profound meaning for a while, just thinking, this is obviously a Taoist, but why is it more like the words of a Buddhist family when I open and close my mouth.
After thinking for a while, because he was not familiar with him for the first time, and it was not easy to ask in detail, he turned his mind and asked, "Dare to ask the long, 'There are times in life that must be there, and there is no time in life to ask, cause and effect reincarnation, a hundred generations of contracts, flowers bloom and fall, and what comes is safe." What should be done with this sentence? It's like I've heard it somewhere. ”
Unexpectedly, when the old man in the green robe heard this, he suddenly opened his mouth and laughed, "Hahaha......"
