01 Origin of the name
I was born in a small village under the Changbai Mountain in the northeast, since I have memory, my family has been for the family to protect the immortals, my immortal family is different from others, not to see things, in fact, it is a family house, but usually this kind of immortal family is almost on the line, but my family is different, there are full nine! You say forget about nine, but nine of them are all Hu Xian, and Hu Xian, the Northeast Baojia Immortal, Hu Huang, White Willow Gray, is the most jealous of Hu Xian.
The so-called Hu Xian is actually a fox, all immortals are animals to put it bluntly, and they also have their own personalities, such as fox fairies who love beauty, love jealousy, and have a strong appetite; Huang Xian is a weasel, also called Huang Pizi to hold grudges, loves to brag and listen, and is suitable for inquiring about things; The white fairy is a hedgehog, greedy and cheap, but with a good heart, he can cure diseases, but he has a bad temper and scolds people at every turn; Liu Xian is lazy and doesn't like to take care of things, but she can fight, and is suitable for horses; The gray fairy is a mouse who loves to calculate people, is very smart, and has many children and grandchildren, and the so-called many people are also suitable for inquiring about things. The fox fairy is more complicated, mainly because of the calculation, can pinch and calculate, will also cure, and there is also the kind of hand-to-hand combat that can fight, but what kind of Hu Xian does my family belong to, I have also asked my mother many times, my mother kept silent, only said that my fox fairy is respected by the smallest.
This is very strange, generally speaking, animal fairies are similar to people, and they are respected by their elders, unless there are very few cases, such as he is the leader of Changbai Mountain, etc., but my fox fairy should not be so powerful, so powerful will not come to my house.
In fact, I didn't say that my family was bad, but my father was not in good health, so my family was easy to be bullied, for example, my chicken went to the neighbor's house, and the neighbor said that it was her chicken that would not give it to us, and my mother went to ask for it, and the neighbor's woman began to scold
"Huh! Everyone came to see the come to steal chickens, take a look, are you ashamed in broad daylight? Run to people to steal chickens. After saying that, everyone laughed, isn't stealing chickens stealing chickens? Since I was a child, I was bullied by the children in the village, and they all said that I was a slut raised by sluts, and I would seduce men at a young age.
I look with my mother, with a big face, watery eyes, pointed chin, red lips, I can only be said to be cute when I am young, but my mother gave birth to me in her early twenties It has been three years, when I was young, my mother was a well-known pretty girl, how many people ran from the city to the countryside to see my mother smile, saying that the matchmaker proposed to the threshold of my grandmother's house to smash, and my mother liked my father. My father is also a handsome descendant in the village, and there are not a few girls who like him, and grandma saw that her daughter liked it and agreed, so the girl is close, the other party's family is not bad, and the person looks good, thinking that she can help bring her grandson in the future, grandma is more satisfied.
In this way, my mother and my father were together, and the village suddenly began to talk about my mother as a woman, in fact, most of them were jealous and indiscriminate by those girls in the village, but my mother has become more and more beautiful since she got married, with a smile on her eyebrows, and her eyes are watery, which is a little more flattering than before she got married. The rumors are getting more and more ugly, but my grandparents are real people, and they love this daughter-in-law very much as a daughter-in-law, and one day someone said that my mother said too much, and that word was really ugly, saying that my grandfather and my father were doing that with my mother, my grandfather had a bad temper, and he quarreled with that person at that time, and finally it turned into a fight, and everyone finally caught it. My grandfather was Orion, and where was that man's opponent, he was very angry, so he said, "I'm afraid it's not your old thing who is angry, right?" The more I talked, the more justified I felt, and the next day the news spread, and less than a month later, my grandfather committed suicide with his shotgun, and my grandmother and grandfather were so affectionate that they also pulled a rope and hanged themselves.
The dead people in the village are seen, the villagers are also honest, and the rumors of the village chief's suppression gradually subsided, but the daughters-in-law in the village still talk nonsense in private, plus my father's health is getting worse and worse, people began to bully our family again, my family's Hu Xian came and people gradually began to respect, rural people, especially in the northeast countryside, respect the fairy family very much, but my family immortal did not come out of the horse, people began to say again, my family Hu Xian is actually my mother raised to play, how fresh and exciting people and animals are.
At that time, I was also born, once a child scolded me at the door of my house, saying that I was a wild seed born to my mother and a fox, my father was sick and lay in bed and couldn't get up and hummed angrily, this thing was thought to be over, rare things came, the child went back and began to have sores on the mouth and tongue, high fever did not go away, slowly twitched limbs and foamed at the mouth, it was not good, how many doctors I saw were not good, I invited a famous horse fairy nearby to see, it was a white fairy, and the family was scolded with a head and face, said that he didn't have to see it, said that he didn't dare to look at it, no one dared to look at it within a radius of ten miles, this kid offended the ten immortals of the Hu family on Changbai Mountain, but I don't know which one it is, but it won't be Uncle Hu, Uncle Hu is already an immortal above, it won't be like this, but none of the other nine is easy to mess with, so they are asked to bring things and bring red beam water, a small phoenix, a yellow stripe, and a yellow ingot. What are these things, in fact, they mean wine, chicken, incense and oranges, which are the specific names of some things when the fairy family is on the body. Then go to Hu Xian and kowtow and confess their sins, and see if Hu Xian forgives them.
The family didn't say a word, they came to my house and begged my mother to say good things, my mother was embarrassed to say, she said that it didn't work, I had to say it. The family took out a lot of sugar and fruits for me to eat, and I was spineless, and the delicious food and drink made me comfortable, so I went to intercede. I knelt down against the nine tablets on the wall and said to the middle tablet
"Forgive them, I think they seem to know their mistakes." I have always felt that my family fairy is useless at all, maybe he is here to coax us, but eating people with soft mouths and soft hands with soft hands, I also want to kneel and pretend, but I know that the daughter-in-law suddenly shook her body, rolled her eyes and slapped her man in the face
"If you don't teach your son well, come out and provoke the old lady, and the old lady will let your whole family die, and it's good to let your son get sick, see if you still talk nonsense." Then the woman began to slap herself again, saying that she was shameless and cheap, in fact, it was a rare Jiang Dashan As a result, people married Li Xiu and became jealous, spreading rumors about others everywhere, and began to say where she went to steal fruits and where to take a bath when she was a girl, and the man who said it couldn't listen to it and pulled it, but the woman was surprisingly strong, and the slap made the man's nose bleed, and he couldn't get up when he sat on the ground.
It was still the man's sister who had eyesight, and saw that it was the fairy family who came, so she quickly knelt down and said good words, "Fairy family, fairy family, you see, we sincerely apologize, we brought good red beam water, and a lot of yellow strips and yellow ingots, you see, the orchid pole that has just been rolled for you, you can taste it." As he spoke, he handed over a cigarette stick, the woman usually doesn't smoke, this time she took it and smoked it, while smoking, she motioned to the man to peel oranges for her, and the man hurriedly got up and peeled it for her, you know, this is impossible in the countryside where machismo is prevalent in the Northeast, and the woman shouted and jumped just now to attract a lot of people to see the excitement, which is usually impossible, but at this time, the man is also honestly peeling, and it is estimated that he was scared. Bring the wine! The man's sister hurriedly poured her wine, brought her the roast chicken, and when the fairy family was full of food and drink, she told them to put Ermazi, oh, it was the child who scolded me, and the rural child was called by this name, and the name was cheap and easy to feed. patted on his head, he was unconscious, suddenly spoke, shouted to the fairy family, said that his mouth hurt, frightened his aunt quickly took him away from the arms of the fairy family, and quickly said that the child is not sensible and let the fairy family not care, the woman waved her hand, "I tell you, dare to come to find trouble in the future to see if I don't continue to clean you up, this time it is me who teaches you a lesson, if it is my ninth brother, I am afraid that your whole family will die, originally he wanted to make a move, but I read that your children are small, and persuaded me." In the future, hum. Saying that, she touched my head, smiled very gently, I also had goosebumps, no one can stand it, the woman who usually wants to kill you suddenly smiled softly at you, I was very uncomfortable, and quickly stayed away from her. I saw that the woman grabbed Aunt Ermazi's hair and threatened viciously, "I tell you, don't think about revenge, you go to the entire Changbai Mountain Range to inquire, who dares to provoke our Hu family ten immortals, the old lady is Changbai Mountain Hu Qi Grandma, you remember it for me, see which road immortal dares to avenge you!" Er Mazi and his aunt trembled with fright and didn't even say that they didn't dare, so the woman let go. She gently touched my head again, "Seventh sister is gone, Yue'er is good." No one will dare to bully you in the future, whoever bullies you will tell Seventh Sister. ”
The woman's body was weak and fainted, and the family saw that the fairy family was gone, and hurriedly took the woman away, and while apologizing to my mother, she left some food and said that it was an apology, and this matter passed like this. For a long time, the people in the village did not dare to mess with us, until one time the neighbor wanted to occupy a piece of land in my house, and the rural people relied on the land to eat, and there were fights for the land, and my mother and my father fought, the girls have always been the little peppers near us, the mouth is the most vicious, the scolding is particularly ugly, after scolding, I began to regret it, and I didn't get sick after waiting for a few days, and I was bold, I guess I felt that my fox fairy was not there, and gradually everyone began to bully us again. In fact, it's not that the fox fairy is not there, it's just that they tell us that that bit of land is nothing, not to mention who gets it who is unlucky, if you don't believe it, just wait and see.
I've been waiting for almost five years, I'm thirteen years old, the retribution of the neighbors hasn't come, I'm still a little slut raised by people's mouths, my father's illness is getting worse and worse, I can't get out of bed for eight out of ten days, and the barefoot doctor also said to prepare for the future. I remember that it was a cool autumn when my dad died, and the hope of the year was in this season, and the golden corn stalks became the most beautiful picture of the season. The swallows flying south kept flying through the sky, I wore beads under the big tree in the yard to play, my mother used the dried red beans to me, saying that it was acacia beans, which can keep people safe, I want to make a string for my father, so that he will slowly get better, and he can take me to the mountains to find delicious wild fruits, and he also said that he would take me to ride a big horse, and said that when he was better, he would catch a little rabbit for me to play.
I was wearing this bead seriously, only to see the doctor shake his head and come out of my house, "Xiu girl, it's not that I said, I haven't diagnosed his pulse since a month ago, to put it mildly, in fact, such a person may be a dead person, and it may not be good for your family to be alive, listen to me, let him go steadily." My mother only kept wiping her tears, and the red beans in my hand spilled on the ground, swirled on the ground, and rolled to nowhere. My mother beckoned me to go over, and whispered in my ear, "Yue'er, don't cry, if your father is not there, there will be a mother, and your mother will be good to you all her life, don't worry, don't cry when you see your father, don't make him uncomfortable, you know that your father will not feel at ease when you cry." I nodded, biting my lip.
I'm the only child in my family, although I am bullied outside, but my father and mother are still a baby, I can't do it, I will give me anything delicious, and I am reluctant to fight and scold. My dad always gave me a head out when I was bullied, and it was also because of my dad that those kids only dared to scold me and didn't dare to beat me, and when my dad was sick, they dared to throw me with pebbles, but what if my dad died, what if my dad died? I cried and lay in front of my father's bed, my father raised his hand to touch my hair, the palm that was once warm and slightly rough is now cold as if there is no temperature, I grabbed my father's hand and didn't dare to let go for fear that he would be careless and not there, my mother was already crying indecently.
"Yue'er, Dad is leaving, Daddy's life was originally given to me by the fox fairy, so that I can watch you grow up, now you are almost thirteen years old, the only thing Dad regrets is that he didn't give you a brother, so that you can suffer all the grievances outside." Saying that, he gasped, and I saw that he was very tired, so I had to pat him on the back to calm him down. "You have to remember that our family's life is given by the fox fairy, and even your name is obtained by the fox fairy, and you are not curious, where did a man in the mountains get such a beautiful name, and it sounds like a beautiful lady in everyone." My father smiled, "Jiang Shuiyue, back then, the immortal family said that our river is more than a thousand miles away, the river of the spring river, saying that you must be a daughter, and we have a fate, so your name must be taken by them, and finally the eight immortals calculated that this name must be taken by her eldest brother or ninth brother, and asked them to choose by themselves, guess who?" Dad looked at me with a smile, as if caught in a long memory, "I guess it's their big brother!" "Why?" "Because it's usually the eldest brother who has the final say." I said with a serious face, and forgot to cry.
This name is my pride, because the girls in the village are called what Hua He Fen, but I have a different name, even Mr. Teaching has praised me for my good name, and he cares for me well, "Wrong, Hu Daxian is the upper immortal, how can it be him, it was Hu Jiuye, I saw that he was looking at the moon in the water, and thought for a long time and said that the mirror flowers and the moon; physique, tone; Water and mirrors also; Xingxiang Fengshen; The moon and flowers also. The water must be clear and clear; Then the flower moon is like that, it is called the river water moon, the eyes are more than a thousand miles, the river of the spring river, the water moon of the mirror flower water moon. That's where your name comes from. ”
Dad motioned for me to bring him a glass of water to drink, and I brought him a glass of water, and he drank it, and his expression gradually became serious. "When I went to the mountains to hunt, I wanted to make a scarf for your mother, because your mother was pregnant with you and was about to give birth, and it was surprisingly cold that year. I didn't pay attention, fell into a snow cave, I thought I was dead, but I didn't expect a white-haired fox to suddenly appear, saying that I should actually be dead, asked me if I wanted to live, of course I wanted to live, said that they were the ten immortals of the Hu family in Changbai Mountain, and asked me to go back to raise them, and have a fate with my heirs, saying that the name should be taken by them, let me live for another thirteen years and ask me if I would like to, of course I am willing, compared to dying now, I have at least thirteen years to settle you down, and I can see you with my own eyes. Dad's eyes gradually drifted, but he forced a smile and said, "Hu Daxian is the upper immortal, I am not qualified to worship, but he has a fate with you and will find you sooner or later, the ninth master and you have the deepest fate, but the ninth master has a cold temperament, you have to listen to him in the future, they are not bad, you have also seen the seven fairy aunts, she did the thing of Er Mazi back then, don't be afraid to listen to your father." Dad looked at me pleadingly, I quickly nodded and agreed, and my mother covered her mouth and cried even more. I wanted to cry too, and my dad wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
Suddenly, I felt a wind blowing behind me, I looked back and felt that I was hugged tightly by a very warm embrace, there was a good smell on my body, I looked up and saw that it was a teenager-like person, very good-looking, eyes like stars, eyebrows like the moon, but not feminine, as if the sun in early spring, and like the cool breeze in summer, between the eyebrows three points of chic and six points of worry, and one point is what, I didn't have time to think about him and said, "You can go at ease, I will be her ninth brother in the future." My dad nodded, and closed his eyes in real relief. Father! I struggled out of the man's arms and threw myself on the bed to my father, but the man who called himself the ninth brother pressed me into his arms, pressed my head to the head and did not let me look at it, I stubbornly turned a little sideways, and saw something that I will never forget. The father who had just died suddenly rose from a puff of green smoke and instantly turned into white bones.
I subconsciously wanted to scream, this scene is too terrible, don't talk about me, even my mother fell to the ground, but she seems to know something, but surprise is not fear, it can only be said to be lost. The boy stroked my head and whispered to comfort me, "Don't be afraid, Brother Nine is here, don't be afraid." His voice is like a summer spring, with a little soft and glutinous feeling, like a sweet glutinous rice cake, soothing my emotions, his arms are warm and reliable, as if people can feel at ease for a lifetime, there is a good smell on the body, I don't reject him, and even trust him, I asked him "Why?" ”
