Untitled Chapter 19
"Little Master Huaijin?" Drunken Willow couldn't help but scream tentatively.
Still no one spoke, silence returned to her surroundings, and all she could hear was her own breathing.
Drunken Liu sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that this method will not work.
"By the way, I can sing a little song, will you listen to the tune you want to hear?" Drunken Ryu asked, but there was no response, and only her own voice was left around.
Drunken Willow was a little irritable, just talking.
"Doesn't it matter what happens to me? You won't open the door? Drunken Willow stomped his feet a little angrily, it seems that this person really doesn't eat oil and salt.
"Female donor, please come back!" There was another sound from inside the door, and Huai Jin's indifference was not a trace of waves.
"What if I die in the hut?" Drunken willow gritted his teeth secretly.
"Please come back."
"You monks know all day long that you can do a great deed with a gesture, and you close the door and ignore people, and I don't want you to steal, and I don't let you rob, just open the door, what do you say Buddhism is compassionate, and you can't even tolerate this little thing?" Drunken Willow sneered a little angrily, people should not be too difficult to think about this little thing, who would have thought that this monk would be so unkind.
"Please come back."
Please? Please come back again! Drunken Willow secretly resents that I hate the word.
"Please come back, please come back, I've heard too many in my life, please come back.
If I have a place to go back, I can still come to beg you in the middle of the night this stinky monk, I was sold to Wang's mother by my gambling father when I was six years old, my mother chased after me and said that she was willing to sell herself and exchange with me, my mother only said where to go back.
When I was eight years old, I finally found an excuse to escape from the Qinglou, and I had already escaped five times at that time, and my mother was afraid that I would run away and didn't give me shoes to wear, so I ran barefoot, and finally left, and returned home for two days and one night.
When I ran to the house, I realized that the home was long gone, and the neighbor said that the street was on fire half a month ago, and the most fierce family in my house was gone.
I threw myself down in my charred home and cried heartbreakingly, and a servant came to me and said, "Go back, but where can I go back?"
Later, they told Wang's mother that I had been taken back to Xihongyuan, and at that time, my mother had broken several sticks and lost half her life.
That's when I understood, and I didn't run anymore because I didn't have a home to go back to.
Birds have nests, monks have temples, and even stray dogs on the side of the road have nests, but what about me? Nothing.
Xihongyuan is like a buying and selling market, and I am the goods in Wang's mother's market, let people choose to buy and sell, can it be called home?
You let me go back, but where can I go back? If you can tell me where to go and where to go, then I'll go back! ”
Drunken Willow sat on the wooden steps in front of the lawn, recalling his life, crying while talking, talking and talking, the more he talked, the more his emotions became out of control.
"It's a shame to want to say something tragic and make you sympathize with me, but I really cried myself." Drunken Liu raised his head, looked at the sky, took a deep breath, wiped away the tears in his eyes, and tried to calm the emotions in his heart.
Slowly suppressed the tears, and then smiled strongly.
The corners of his mouth pulled out a sneer, this world is like this, the tears of the weak will never be sympathized, only the strong can smile, and someone will echo it.
Drunken Liu estimated that she was a little self-deprecating for her gaffe just now.
"Eh, monk, what do I do else, your voice is a little familiar? Actually, I didn't mean to be close, I really felt a little familiar, did we know each other before? Drunken Willow wiped away her tears and calmed down, and her mood tried to adjust her voice.
"Huai Jin was ordered by the master to guard this door, and he will never open it." didn't get any response, Huai Jin just said lightly.
"If you don't open the door, I won't leave, the wooden steps in front of the grass hut are quite cool, I'll wait here, and when the morning comes, I won't see if you can get out?" Drunken Willow has made up his mind, I don't believe it, and when it dawns, you won't come out yet.
At this time, the night was getting darker and darker, and she only felt that her heart was getting colder and colder.
"I'm so sleepy, really, why are you so sleepy all of a sudden?" Drunken Liu sat on the steps, only to feel that her eyelids were matched one by one, and she couldn't open them, her eyes unconsciously closed slowly, and she gradually fell asleep against the wooden door of the grass shed.
Then, she had another dream.
"I ...... Is this a dream? When Drunken Willow woke up, she found herself in a darkness, she couldn't see anything, she felt only half awake, but it was as if someone was pushing her and pushing her towards the bell.
A distant voice rang out.
"When the bell rings, you will have eternal life......"
The voice she heard felt very far away from herself, but she could feel it very clearly, but she instinctively resisted the voice.
"Nope! I don't want to go, I don't want to be taken away. The drunken willows were arguing, at this time she felt extremely sober for a while, she didn't want to die, she didn't want to die.
"Eternal life, ...... quickly"
The voice seemed to sense her resistance and became agitated.
"Nope! Don't——— I don't-" Drunken Willow shook her head and exclaimed in horror, trying to keep the last bit of consciousness because she knew that if she lost consciousness, she would die.
"The bell is ringing! Eternal life! Come on! Walk! The distant voice kept urging behind her, and there seemed to be a magical force that kept pushing her forward.
"Let's go! Walk! Walk! When the bell rings, you will have eternal life. The voice kept urging, and she seemed to see the appearance of a woman gradually appearing around her, and if she was not also attracted to her for life, she would not have noticed it at all.
The voice kept urging her, and kept murmuring, the sound mixing with the distant voices, causing her consciousness to gradually blur.
"The bells are ringing...... Sound...... Get...... ...... eternal life"
Drunken Liu also muttered to herself, slowly her consciousness became weaker and weaker, and she also read along, and slowly he only felt that his consciousness was becoming more and more blurred.
"Let's go! ……… Walk! Walk! ”
Soon she also lost her will, her mouth spoke mechanically, and her body involuntarily approached the bell.
"Big Clock?!"
Suddenly, consciousness seemed to return, and for a moment, she realized something, and felt that distant voice seemed to sound again.
"Ring the bell and have eternal life! Eternal life! As the voice sounded, her consciousness became dilapidated again, and she lost consciousness and walked forward with the women next to her.
"Eternal life! Eternal life! Just touch it, and I will have eternal life. She muttered to herself, very firm, as if the bell in front of her had magical power, calling everyone.
"Eternal life! Eternal life! ”
Countless women around muttered to themselves, and the strange woman in front walked up to the bell and touched the big bell.
Then the strange woman disappeared without a trace in an instant.
She ...... Get eternal life?! I...... Yes. Drunken Willow's consciousness seemed to come back a little, and she looked at the strange woman who disappeared in front of her for a moment.
Then the surroundings remembered again.
"Eternal life! Eternal life! Don't linger. An eager voice came.
The sound of the voice in her ears casually sounded, and she fell into the unconscious again.
The eager voice in her ear urged her on, driving her forward.
Slowly stretched out his hand and wiped it towards the bell.
Her hand lifted, slowly.
I want eternal life too, and her heart is blank, and there is only one thought.
"Stop !!"
At the moment when she was about to wipe the bell, a pair of hands appeared in the darkness and grabbed her wrists tightly.
The temperature from that hand made her suddenly regain some consciousness.
"No——— I don't want to touch that big clock!"
Drunken Liu had only one thought in his mind at this time, and he struggled back with all his might, his eyes opening suddenly.
When she opened her eyes, she found that the scene around her was gradually becoming clearer.
She saw a clear-eyed face appear in front of her, and your young face was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.
"It's all right."
The man said.
"Well, it's okay, Xin Hao." Drunken Liu patted her chest, a little frightened and happy.
"Huh? Monk, are you out? Drunken Liu realized at this time that the person in front of her was the little monk Huaijin, and she was outside the grass shed next to the Temple of Mercy and Grace at this time.
"Now that the female benefactor is no longer in the way, the poor monk has retired." Huai Jin made a gesture of Amitabha Buddha and turned around to go back.
Drunken Liu hurriedly reached out and grabbed his monk's robe.
"Eh, you're back, it's hard to open the door, eh, no, wait, you were in my dream just now...... By the way, I just saw that monk in my dream that it was you, right?! Although Drunken Willow was asking him, she felt that she was basically sure that person was him.
"The poor monk didn't know what the female benefactor was talking about, so he took his leave." Huai Jin said again, pulling the monk's robe.
"Don't think about saying goodbye." Drunken Liu tugged at his sleeve hard, not letting go.
"Buddhism is pure, please respect the female benefactor." Huai Jin pulled out his sleeves, didn't pull them out, and said coldly.
"Humph! I don't have self-respect today, how can I drop? Tell me clearly, why are you in my dreams?!
And what if I had touched that bell just now? Am I going to die? Drunken Liu pulled his sleeve tightly and didn't let go, she knew that the monk in the dream was him, she had a lot of questions, she didn't want to die, and she didn't want to die without knowing it.
"The female benefactor first let go of the sleeves of the poor monk, and it is not easy for a poor monk like you to explain to you in detail." Huai Jin seemed to be a little helpless by her appearance, and she was not dumb anymore.
When she finally knew the reason, her heart was relieved.
"Oh, it doesn't seem to be a good catch, so I'll let you go, and you can tell me about it." Drunken Willow heard that he finally agreed, and slowly loosened his sleeve.
At the moment when he let go, Huai Jin slammed it, ran back after a night's time, and then slammed the door shut.
It was so fast, everything happened in an instant.
After the door closed, she realized that she had been put on a position by him.
"Stinky monk, I didn't expect you to dare to lie to me, and suddenly closed the door, why do you say that the monks don't lie to people?! Feed! Stinky monk! Get the hell out of here! Get out!
You're mad at me!
Drunken Liu didn't expect him to lie to her at all, she scolded him angrily, no matter how she was noisy outside, there was still no movement inside the door, as if there was no one in the house at all.
An hour later......
Drunken Willow's throat was smoking, and there was still no movement in the door.
It wasn't a way to do it all the time, so she had to go back first and think of other ways.
On the second day, Li Gongzi came over early to inquire about last night's affairs, and it seemed that he was really in a hurry.
"Gongzi Li, Fifth Brother Wang, Sister Peony is good!"
Drunken Willow greeted them one by one, but what surprised her was that she didn't expect Red Peony to come.
"Since everyone is here, let's talk about it quickly, the two girls went to try the monk last night?" Li Gongzi waved his hand, several people sat together, and he hurriedly inquired.
"I'm afraid that Li Gongzi is going to redeem himself for Peony." Red Peony glanced at the drunken willow and sneered.
Drunken Willow's heart skipped a beat when he heard it.
Ransom? Red Peony didn't seem to knock on the door yesterday, right?
"Sister Peony, what do you mean by hanging the sachet on the monk?"
"He didn't bring the sachet, saying that he was afraid that the master would blame him if he saw it-" Red Peony's face changed, but for a moment, he returned to normal.
"Leave the sachet alone, let's talk about it. What do you see inside the door? Li Gongzi quickly interrupted and asked.
"Uh...... That's right, when I arrived at his door last night, I deliberately bumped into the person at my feet when I took off my skirt, so who knew that the monk was watching against the door? Red Peony said faintly.
"Who told you that? I mean what's inside the door! What's inside the door? Li Gongzi frowned, urging with some dissatisfaction.
"Inside the door...... Yes...... Well...... There's that...... Uh......"
Red Peony's face stiffened, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
When Li Gongzi heard this, he couldn't be clear, and his face slowly darkened.
"Red peony! I set up a banquet, but I didn't listen to you fooling me here! Li Gongzi's face was flat, and he was about to have a seizure.
"Childe, don't be too angry, it was too dark last night, I, I didn't see it too clearly." Red Peony lowered her head and said with a little weakness.
"Liu'er, what about you?" Li Gongzi didn't look at the red peony, turned his head and asked Drunken Willow.
Drunken Liu secretly thought in his heart, Li Gongzi still cares about the things of the class, is it because of the Jingfan master?
"Liu'er?" Seeing that the drunken willow didn't speak, Li Gongzi shouted patiently.
Drunken Liu came back to his senses at this time, and found that he was a little distracted, so he quickly came back to his senses.
"Back to Gongzi, Liu'er did let the monk open the door last night, but Liu'er was in a dream at that time, so ...... I didn't see what was in the door. Drunken Liu was also a little weak-hearted, and his mind was a little confused at that time, and he forgot to take a closer look at what was going on in the door.
"Humph! I see you're dreaming about opening the door, right? Red Peony sneered on the side.
"Hmph, if it's open, it's open, if it's not open, it's not open, I really don't have the ability of Sister Peony, but I don't cheat either." Drunken Willow heard her say this, glared at her and sneered.
"Caught in a dream, do you mean you ran into a soul wanderer at the straw hut?" Li Gongzi was not only not angry, but also frowned and asked.
"Yes, that's kind of bizarre to say, I-" She was about to continue, but was interrupted by Red Peony.
"What is so bizarre that it is simply fake! Li Gongzi, she-" Red Peony glared at Drunken Willow with a resentful expression, for fear that Li Gongzi would be attracted by her words.
"Shut up!"
Li Yan was a little angry and yelled at the red peony.
The sudden roar almost didn't make the red peony fall to the ground in shock.
"Yes...... Be. Red Peony bit her lower lip.
"Liu'er, you go on, you met the soul in front of the grass hut and then what?" Li Yan turned his head to Drunken Liu and Yan Yuese, and motioned for her to continue.
"Yes, then the little monk named Huai Jin was worried about me, so he came out to see it, and then he went back."
"Did you see the house? Is there a big clock? Li Yan hurriedly asked.
"Inside, no, but I did see a big bell in my dream." Drunken Willow shook his head.
"What kind?"
"Uh, what do you mean by that? It's just a golden one, it's big. Drunken Liu thought about it, but didn't know how to describe it, so he said it simply.
"Yes, yes, good." Li Yan nodded again and again, as if he was very happy.
Drunken Willow was a little puzzled, what's wrong with Youzhong?
"Sister Liu'er, you will go again tonight."
"I-" Drunken Liu was about to speak, but was interrupted by Li Yan.
"This is a gift from the palace just a few days ago, and I will reward you." Li Yan took out a green jade bracelet from his arms and gave it to Drunken Willow.
"Liu Er thanked the son." Drunken Willow took it and saluted.
