Chapter 175: Occupy the Dream
A beautiful woman suddenly appeared in the dream, and it turned out to be a witch who was a descendant of a merchant, and she looked exactly like the female ghost in Huaishuwan.
I don't know if she's psychic or what, but she says she's trapped in the meteorite and can't get out.
Now that she saw that the dream was so realistic, she wanted me to accompany her and see the world here.
We walked to the edge of the dream constructed by our grandfather, and encountered invisible boundaries, but she opened and expanded.
We left Daoist Bay and walked among the mountains, with tall trees on both sides, and she led me, running and jumping, like a child, innocent.
The world here was reconstructed by her, and it should be based on her memories.
Seeing that she was not hostile to me at all, I slowly relaxed. While admiring the pristine scenery here, he asked, "You said you are a shrine maiden who occupies dreams?" ”
She nodded, looked at me and smiled and said, "Yes, I can predict the future through dreams." ”
I heard it and exclaimed, "It's amazing, have you been able to do it since you were a child?" ”
She nodded and said, "I'm a shrine maiden, do you know what a shrine maiden is?" ”
In my mind, shrine maidens live in temples or palaces, are worshipped, and sense heaven and earth, and I say, "Aren't shrine maidens sensing gods?" ”
She smiled and said, "There are many kinds of shrine maidens, some can sense gods, and some can predict the future. You said that merchants are good at divination, and we who are descendants of merchants, at a very young age, some of us will be very sensitive, able to sense things that others can't, and we will be selected and trained and guided, and finally become shrine maidens. ”
In the ancient times of every nation, there seems to be a similar story, and in the temples of ancient India, there were goddesses dedicated to the gods and elders.
Then she stopped, picked a small flower on the ground, sniffed it with her nose, and said, "We are like the wild flowers in the mountains, among the people, they are all lowly people, but after being selected as a shrine maiden, they will be taken to the Taishou Temple for cultivation. Like the wild flowers in the mountains, suddenly put into a vase, it looks noble, but only they know it, and they can no longer grow freely in the woods, but can only be confined to the vase. ”
Then, with tears in her eyes, she said, "When I was very young, when there was war and my family was hungry, because I could often dream many strange things, I was sent to be a shrine maiden in exchange for a little food. ”
Looking at her pitiful appearance, I felt pity and said, "That's not a good thing, my family can get food, and I won't go hungry in the future." ”
She shook her head and said, "It's not that simple, the witch must also be cultivated, and it must also be selected, and only qualified people can stay, and the rest can only be sold to become slaves of rich families." ”
I asked, "How do I qualify?" Able to foresee the future? ”
She nodded, stood up, and continued to lead me forward, saying, "There are many ways of divination, there are tortoise shells, there are yarrows. And I'm divining through dreams. When I was very young, I would have a lot of strange dreams, and many things in my dreams would soon be verified. Later, the people from the temple told me that children have aura in their bodies, and it is because of this that they can sense the future. There are many shrine maidens cultivated in the Taishou Jongmyo Temple, and the one who is responsible for cultivating us is the celebratory official of the Jongmyo Temple, who will tell us these dream-dividing witches on the first day to predict what to do, such as the flowers of the Jongmyo Temple, which one will bloom first. The next day we need to tell him that if the person who answers correctly is later verified, he will continue to predict something else, and if he is not accurate, or if he is lazy, he will inevitably be beaten. By analogy, if you fail to predict more than three times in a row, it proves that you are not suitable to continue as a shrine maiden, and then the loser will be sold. The witches are selected through layers and constantly cultivated, and the witches who stay behind are all people with strong and accurate prediction ability. ”
At this time, an ancient bazaar appeared in front of me, and she took me by the hand and ran happily over there, saying, "The last witch will be left behind, but there are only a few people, they will live in the temple and will no longer be able to show their faces casually, so as not to be polluted by the filth of the world and consume their aura." I haven't been to the bazaar in years. ”
This constructed bazaar is full of Han Dynasty clothes, hawkers, all kinds of people, just like reality.
When we got to a vendor selling sugar gourds, she happily asked, "How much is a bunch?" ”
The peddler replied, "A penny." ”
But we didn't have any ancient copper coins on us, so she grabbed my hand and spread it out, put her palm on it, and shouted to me, "Give me money." ”
I wondered how much money I had, but I saw her palm leave, and on my open palm, two pennies were conjured.
I handed it to the vendor, and the vendor handed us two strings of sugar gourds, one for each person.
She brought it to her mouth and ate it.
I followed behind and asked, "You changed these two pennies?" ”
She turned her head, looked at me and smiled, "I built all the dreams here, let alone two pennies." ”
There was a lot of traffic around her, and she continued to tell her story: "In the end, there will only be a few witches left in the entire temple, and I am lucky, and my predictions are accurate. At this time, Zhu Guan began to teach us to construct dreams. ”
I asked, "How?" ”
She giggled, "I think about it every day, and I dream about it at night." In dreams, you will slowly grasp the laws of dreams, project what you see in reality into your dreams, and you will be able to construct your own dreams. Zhu Guan wants us to project the situation in reality into a dream. Dreams are only finely constructed, just like reality, to observe the results of evolution, and there is no time in dreams, only rules, you can make dreams go fast and predict the distant future. ”
Indeed, the ancients could simulate reality in dreams through comparisons in reality, push time, predict wars, and even the future of the country.
The more elaborate the dream is constructed, the more accurate the simulation result will be, which is their dream occupation.
At this time, we walked through the bazaar and came to a tall city gate, and on the stone plaque above the city gate, it was written: Liang Guo, two words.
Where is Liang Guo? Why haven't I heard of it? I didn't study well and I didn't know what the place was.
She looked up at the plaque and smiled at me, "This is my hometown, the former Song Kingdom, and the current Liang Kingdom." ”
When she said Song Guo, I knew it.
The ancient Song Kingdom is now Shangqiu. It is said that the place name of Shangqiu is derived from the hill of Yin Shang.
She led me and strode in, in stark contrast to the thriving streets on either side, and the starving crowds in the corners of the roadside.
At this moment, a little beggar girl covered in mud reached out to beg, and she hurriedly pulled me and walked quickly to the side.
I laughed and said, "This is a dream, you can't conjure up a little money for this beggar, and you are still so afraid of them." ”
She looked at me, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Since it's a dream, it doesn't matter if you give it or not. After constructing a dream for a long time, it will be a little difficult to distinguish whether it is reality or a dream. Sometimes I bring the things I am afraid of into my dreams. ”
I asked, "Are you afraid of beggars?" ”
She shook her head and said, "I was poor when I was a child, and I was no different from these beggars. ”
"Then why are you so afraid of this kid?" I asked, looking back at the little beggar, just standing there, pitiful.
She stuck out her tongue and said, "The Lord has a shadow in my heart. ”
How could she be afraid of a child, or the shadows.
Curious, I continued to ask, but instead of answering me, she asked me about it.
She was also curious about everything about me, and asked me if the house just now was my home and who my relatives were.
I answered truthfully, it was actually a Taoist temple, and only my master and master were here tonight.
She seemed to hate her family a little, and asked me if I had a good relationship with the master and the master, and according to my description, she changed the appearance of the master and the master.
Hearing about me, her face was full of envy and said: "I hate my family a little bit, because my mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to me, and my older siblings and father don't like me and often beat me. When I was a child, I dreamed of them and wanted them to be nice to me, but it wasn't real. I can only dare to rebel against them in my dreams. ”
I felt a little bit of pity for her and said, "You must have been lonely when you were a kid, right?" ”
She nodded and said, "When I was a child, I didn't have any playmates, and I was often bullied, and only in dreams was I happier. Later, I constructed a playmate of my own in a dream. ”
She looked at the bazaar just now, and then said, "But I didn't expect that playmate to end up becoming the demon in my dreams. ”
