This momentary thought was like a flash of lightning, both painful and surging.

She chewed on everything from the past, and as painful as it was, she just couldn't help but think about it over and over again, and remember it over and over again, as if she was going to crush it all and look at it all.

Everything that is lost and regained, gained and lost;

All the first taste of joy in the last moment, the next moment of the great waves of the past;

Missed again and again, success and failure......

Suddenly, Bai Ling remembered "The Old Man and the Sea", and she suddenly felt that she was the old fisherman in the story—the old fisherman who fought alone against a group of ferocious sharks on the rough sea.

Her hands and feet are full of invisible shackles at the moment, and her fate is only in the thoughts of the superiors.

The contrast in strength is so great, there is almost no suspense about the victory or defeat, she knows that she has nothing to do about it, but she still doesn't want to bow her head and obey - she just doesn't want to obey!

"A man is not born to be defeated, you can destroy him, but you can't defeat him."

This is the original sentence in the book!

Thinking of this, Bai Ling couldn't help but bury his head in the quilt and tried his best to hold back his whimper.

Although Bai Yi is not there at the moment, Fourteen is not there, her former friends have turned against each other, and she has long lost control of her own destiny - but she suddenly realized that she is not alone after all.

In the depths of her mind, there is a whole brilliant human civilization living there, and there are 110,000 human stars that have passed away shining in the galaxy of history.

It was where everything she came from, and where she all returned, and although there were only a few hundred of whom she could name, these old friends who only lived in her memories were full of fierce fighting spirit and gushing strength.

- How could she be an old fisherman who fought alone?

Even if the person standing opposite her had thousands of troops in his hands, he could not attack her place in the slightest, and those brave and upright heroes were her army...... She's evenly matched!

The thought instantly made Bai Ling laugh, tears wet her pillow, and she knew that she had survived another dangerous night.

……

The next morning, the girls woke up early, and now they no longer have to work under the surveillance and twitching of the turtle paws as they did when they first arrived, but there is still a lot to do every day.

As she washed, Ai Songqing looked at Bai Ling with some concern—her eyes were slightly red and swollen, and she looked like she had cried at night.

"Are you alright?" Ai Songqing asked endlessly.

Bai Ling didn't react, and looked at her a little inexplicably, so Ai Songqing pointed to his eyes, "Your eyes seem to be red......"

Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, and she smiled, "Because I had a few dreams last night." ”

"Nightmares?"

Bai Ling shook his head, "Sweet dreams." ”

Ai Songqing didn't find a suitable gap and asked again: "Why do you cry when you dream?" They quickly changed their clothes and went downstairs to gather.

Generally speaking, the morning and morning hours still have to go to work, and the specific affairs are arranged by the turtle's paws;

In the afternoon and evening, they began to make up for the "gatekeeping skills" in Baihuaya - singing and dancing, piano art, poetry, chess, calligraphy and painting.

It wasn't until today, for the first time, that he went to a nearby dance hall to practice dance with everyone, and Bai Ling felt that the masters here were very perfunctory in their teaching—even less attentive than the master of Liyuan who taught them superficial kung fu.

When some big classes got up, there were nearly 100 people in the hall listening, and most of them were crowded, and Bai Ling felt a little out of breath when he sat in them, let alone listened attentively.

Later, Bai Ling heard that they came here to listen to the class, but it was actually the bustard mother who paid for it, so the bustard mother would come from time to time to check everyone's learning results.

I don't know if it's because the last time Lin Zhai sang at night, Bai Ling and Ai Songqing made Bustard Niang make a lot of money, so in those spot checks, she didn't take the initiative to embarrass Bai and Ai.

But the result is quite good - the guilt of these teachers is based on certain skills.

Some of them are good at poetry and writing, some are good at musical instruments, and there are always a few things that they can master.

At the end of February, new things began to appear on the beds and tables of several girls, and their lunch and evening diet was richer than that of the others, and everyone, including the girls themselves, was a little frightened and did not know what was going on.

Until the bustard mother revealed some rumors one day, these girls were the last time they were bought and sold in February, and they were caught by several big housekeepers.

Those housekeepers are all old acquaintances of this bustard, so they can pre-set a group of people, first give a guaranteed fixed price, and then negotiate the price with the bustard girl alone.

Once the money is set, when the May Crescent shop is bought and sold, the selected girl does not have to go on stage to sell, and just go directly to the bottom with others.

Therefore, from now until May, each of their families will take the initiative to leave some subsidies for the bustard mothers, so that these girls can improve their lives in Baihuaya.

Bustard Niang herself will also take the initiative to reveal the background of these lords to the girls, and say some good things - according to past experience, these criminals are eager to leave Baihuaya as soon as possible, waiting for this tooth shop to buy and sell is like a long drought and looking forward to the rain, but whenever she praises one or two sentences, the girls are always willing to nod.

On the second day of the third month, Bai Ling returned from the dance hall with the other girls, and found a new quilt at the head of his bed.

Ai Songqing's sharp eyes noticed it first, she beckoned Bai Ling to come and see, and then touched it with her hands - it was a newly made silk quilt.

At this moment, the bustard appeared at the door, waving and calling Bai Ling to come out.

This battle is now commonplace for girls in the room - this is the standard process of "internal decision" conversation.

The girls had been called out like this before, and when they came back, they already knew where they were going after May.

So Bai Ling stood up and quickly disappeared outside the door.

Along the way, Bai Ling glanced at the bustard from time to time, and always felt that today's bustard was very happy, she took Bai Ling downstairs and stopped in front of a fence where no one was.

Bai Ling was silent all the way, waiting for news from the bustard mother.

The bustard girl leaned on the railing, looked Bai Ling up and down again, and quickly laughed, "Girl, you are really a blessing that you have cultivated in several lifetimes, how many people have squeezed through the threshold of their heads and can't squeeze in, you can easily step over when you see it......"

Bai Ling said in a low voice, "I don't know...... Which family is it? ”

"There are two families rushing to ask for you, and the price is still being discussed," the bustard mother smiled from ear to ear, "In short, this silk quilt was sent by the Dingbian Hou Mansion today...... The little marquis in their house has taken a fancy to you! ”
