Ye is sad, Ye is the surname, and the sad is life.

Destiny is predetermined, but fortune can be changed.

But once the fate is determined to be miserable, the fortune is powerless.

Ming Phong Village.

A village that makes a living from farming, Mingpeng Village has a bumper harvest every year, and it is harmless and disaster-free, which is the greatest kindness given by God to farmers who farm the land.

Even though there was a whole year of drought in the country that year, Mingpeng Village was still as usual, the four seasons were clearly not affected in the slightest, and the harvest was still full.

There was a Taoist priest who passed through this village, observed for a few days, and said that it was blessed by the gods, and this god lived in the forest next to the village, and the Taoist priest entered the forest alone, saying that he wanted to meet the immortal, but after several years, the Taoist priest never came out.

Some people speculate that he met the gods and was instructed to become an immortal, some people speculate that he found another exit from the forest and went back, and some people speculate that he was detained by the gods to drink tea and play chess together...... Some of the simple villagers who yearn for beauty also went in, wanting to be guided by the gods to become immortals, but none of the people who went in returned.

At this time, everyone's speculation is more, all the good and bad are all there, but every household is old and young, so they don't think about going into the forest to find the gods, but build a door with cement and bricks for the entrance, and surround it with a red rope, warning not to go in, otherwise they will be detained by the gods and never return.

"So that forest is our forbidden land. ”

A swarthy and thin seven-year-old boy pointed to the entrance of the forest, his slightly frowning brows revealing some fear, while the nine-year-old girl, who was even petite but taller than him, looked unconvinced, as if she did not agree with the story.

"Our village is the richest in the neighborhood, what does it mean? The gods who live in it are good people. Maybe everyone who went in before was having fun in it. ”

"Jiu'er, what if it's a monster? I'm a little scared. ”

"No, Yijiang. Jiu'er, a nine-year-old girl, looked around, smiled and said, "I've been observing for five days, and no one has come at this time." ”

Yijiang stepped back, his voice trembling a little, as if he was about to cry.

"You don't want to go in, do you? Daddy specifically instructed that you can't go in. ”

"Coward. ”

Jiu'er glared at him, but his eyes rolled and smiled again, and said, "I'll take a look at the door." After saying that, he trotted to the door, not at all afraid.

When Jiu'er ran to the door, a cool breeze blew her shivering, and she couldn't help rubbing her arms together and sneezing.

Looking inside, all you could see was a dense black grove of trees, which no matter how hard the sun tried to emit its heat and light, it was never felt as if it had been cut off.

Jiu'er looked at it, his eyes were in a daze, as if he had been sucked into his soul, his legs did not obey the call, and he took a step, which was to go inside.

"Jiu'er!" Yijiang's eyes were fast, and he used a brute force to quickly pull Jiu'er back, Jiu'er's soul seemed to have returned to his body, his eyes regained his agility, and his limbs were once again at her mercy.

Jiu'er felt that something in her chest was smashing hard and regularly, as if it was about to burst out of her chest, she covered it and muttered strangely: "Why do you jump so hard here?" Yijiang covered her chest and said, "Of course, if you're scared, you will jump very hard here." ”

"Is there a little monster here?"

Yijiang shook his head and said, "Daddy said this is the heart." ”

Jiu'er seemed to understand the "oh", because she had never been afraid since she was a child, and today she actually felt scared, she touched her chest again, and thought in her heart: It turns out that fear is this feeling.

Jiu'er looked at the entrance of the forest again, and this time she felt even more eerie than before.

"Let's go back, you are so bold, you said that you were just watching at the door, but the result was to go in, and Daddy will definitely scold you if he knows it." ”

"I didn't want to go in," Jiu'er really didn't want to go in, but he was attracted, but he couldn't say what attracted him.

Yijiang took Jiu'er's hand and went home, but at the entrance of the forest, there were a pair of blue eyes staring at the two children who had left.

"Daddy! We're back. ”

Jiu'er's crisp voice made their father Ye Neng show a look of joy, Jiu'er saw his father smiling, and immediately pounced, Ye Neng smiled and stroked his daughter's hair, sighed and said, "Girl, I boiled two eggs for you today, and you ate to replenish your body." ”

"Thank you, Dad!"

Yijiang on the side looked unhappy and said: "Dad is really eccentric, he gives my sister all good things, she is a head taller than me, why don't you say that she will make up for my body!"

"Yijiang, your sister has been weak since she was a child and almost didn't die, so let your sister make up more. ”

Yijiang pouted and looked unconvinced, Jiu'er grimaced at him, looking at the two children's Ye Neng still smiled, caressing Jiu'er's hair very lovingly.

Jiu'er, who had eaten two eggs, lay on the bed and slept, Yijiang lay next to Jiu'er, the two of them were covered with a quilt, the two of them had been asleep like this since childhood, Ye Neng sat on the side of the bed and looked at the two children, still smiling from ear to ear, in his eyes, it was his greatest wish in his life for the two children to grow up safely.

In the middle of the night, the temperature suddenly dropped, Jiu'er has been weak and afraid of cold since he was a child, curled up and leaned towards Yijiang's body, Yijiang's body temperature is always so warm, even in winter, Yijiang's body is like this, like a big furnace. Every time it's cold, Jiu'er's body leans against Yijiang like this, and she doesn't get cold.

But today, Yijiang fell asleep, as usual, Jiu'er was tightly attached to Yijiang's body, but she was still shivering with cold, she couldn't sleep cold, sat up, and patted Yijiang, but this person slept so dead that he couldn't scream.

"Son, come to me, I have the warmth you want here. ”

The sound suddenly reached Jiu'er's ears, and she looked around in fright, and found that there was silence all around, and there was no sign of anyone.

"Child, I'm in the forest, and I can protect you for the rest of your life, never from the cold. ”

"Oh?" Jiu'er immediately laughed when she heard this, it turned out that there were really immortals in the forest! She hurriedly patted Yijiang, but Yijiang just couldn't wake up.

Eh, this guy who sleeps like a pig's head! Jiu'er angrily slapped him in the face, but after Yijiang made a painful "eh", he turned around and fell asleep again.

"Forget it, I'll go by myself, regardless of you. ”

Jiu'er got out of bed, opened the door gently, and walked alone to the entrance of the forest, the entrance at night looked completely different from the entrance during the day, the entrance at this time was glowing with green light, like an immortal guiding her way, she walked in quickly towards the green light, regardless of the chain, and went straight in.

It was pitch black inside, and if it weren't for this green light, Jiu'er wouldn't have been able to see the road here.

There are trees all around, and the leaves rustle in the breeze, Jiu'er is not afraid, it can be said that she has never been afraid since she was a child.

No, she stood at the entrance during the day today and felt scared.

Jiu'er walked and walked, the green light became more and more intense, and then she imagined in her mind that when she came to the end, she would definitely see the immortals and other villagers drinking tea and playing chess together, and maybe some other immortals were meditating, by the way! Her father has white hair, maybe she can ask the immortals for some elixir, so that her father is a few years younger!

After walking for a long time, Jiu'er didn't feel tired at all, she didn't even feel cold, she didn't know how long she was going to walk, she only knew that the green light was getting brighter and brighter, but it was not dazzling.

The next morning, Daddy cooked the meal and called the names of the two children, and his smiling face had many fine lines, which looked less like their father and more like Grandpa.

"Ye Yijiang, Ye Jiu'er, get up quickly, Daddy has finished the meal!"

Yijiang couldn't wake up, Ye Neng knew this very well, but Jiu'er didn't get up, although he was a little suspicious, he didn't think much about it, he still held the rice in the pot and continued to call the two children.

"Yijiang, Jiu'er!"

Unexpectedly, Yijiang was woken up, he stretched his waist and muttered: "Daddy, when will I have a bed by myself, I think it's so crowded." Oh, my face hurts. ”

"Son, your sister is weak, and when it gets colder, she will be cold, so let's sleep like this first, and when your sister is in her freshman year, I have to separate you if you want to be next to your sister. ”

"Okay. Yijiang reluctantly lifted the quilt and sighed, got out of bed and looked at his father busy in the kitchen alone, and said, "Dad, where is my sister?"

"Isn't your sister next to you? Wake her up. ”

Yijiang was stunned for a moment, then looked at the empty space next to him, and immediately shouted: "Dad! My sister is not around, is she going out!"

"What?" Ye Neng got up every day when it was dawn and walked a long way to the river to fish for the two children, and for so many years, Jiu'er had not once taken advantage of this to go out.

Ye Neng hurriedly put down the rice spoon in his hand, ran over, and touched the position where Jiu'er slept, it turned out to be cold, obviously she had been out for a long time, Ye Neng angrily slapped Xia Jiang's back, scolding: "You bastard boy! You sleep like a dead pig every day! You don't know when your sister left! You! You! You hurry up and get me back!!"

Although Yijiang was very aggrieved, he didn't talk back, and immediately got out of bed and put on the shoes and said, "I'll go now!"

As soon as the shoes were put on, a roar came from the depths of the forest, and the whole village was shaken.

"Xiang Shen! Finally free!Hahahaha!"

With the last long laugh, Zhen Yijiang's ears were buzzing, he covered his ears and sweated, bit his lip and said, "I have to find my sister, I have to find my sister!"
