Chapter 53: When I First Woke Up from a Big Dream
I don't know how long I've been asleep.
He could faintly hear the rooster crowing at the entrance of the village, and he could even vaguely perceive that Gugu and Geng Ding were buzzing in the courtyard as if they were discussing something.
But he couldn't open his eyes, let alone tell what they were saying.
Covered in softness, without a little strength, in desperation, Shaoyi chose to sleep again.
......
"Bell-bell-bell-"
This is a cooing of dough, the palm of the hand vigorously rolling the heavy dough, and the newly formed dough hits the wall of the wooden basin with a rhythmic sound.
"Tick-answer-" I felt that in the cedar forest at the source of Ganhua Creek hundreds of miles away, a drop of dew smashed down and smashed on the leaves of the small silver fir seedlings......
Between half dreaming and waking up, Shaoyi actually made a new discovery, all kinds of sounds knocked on Shaoyi's eardrum from different places near and far, yes, Shaoyi once again tilted his ears and concentrated.
At this point, there is no need to see, no need to see, everything is magnified in the senses, and it is searched:
There are four ants on the windowsill fighting over a grain of rice;
Under the eaves, a spider laboriously repairs a large web that has been blown by the wind......
Usually knowing these interesting things will make Shao Yihuan like it for a long time, but at this time, this simultaneous thing came all of a sudden, making Shao Yi's heart throb a little.
Isn't it strange that things that usually need to be observed with the naked eye and ears are now known with just a gentle look at your invisible touch? !
"One less, it's time to wake up. Geng Ding called him at the door of the house.
"Village Chief, how long have I been asleep?" asked Shao Yi as he slowly opened his eyes, and Geng Ding raised four fingers and turned away leisurely.
What a full night's sleep. How comfortable this sleep is, and how confusing it is to wake up......
He sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, all kinds of beautiful things were happening outside, and they also took the initiative to pounce on his senses, making him feel full and heavy.
"Are you voices looking for me? Or am I actively capturing you?" Shao Yi said to himself: "Are your various feelings a manifestation of the joy of life? Or are you a crooked struggle for survival? Who am I in our relationship? Why do I care about you, I want to know what you are doing, how you live, how to protect yourself?......
Shaoyi hugged his head, he was self-aware, indeed, as Geng Ding said last night, he was always driven by abundant emotions to think and do things, so it was easy to fall into it and not be rational enough.
The most surprising thing is that last night, I woke up and added a lot of knowledge to my mind.
At this time, Shaoyi didn't need to deliberately recall, but after this night, those novel information seemed to have been packed into the memory bank of his mind.
The hawthorn wine is really not drunk in vain, and I don't think about it, isn't it something in the hawthorn wine that inspires me?
Shaoyi remembered that he had been running for a long time under the influence of alcohol. Then, while feeling his body, Shaoyi wondered if it was the fir sap and the two streams of cold and hot qi and blood that produced great power when they were running around his body.
And this power discovers the unfettered "non-physical space" in the body, captures the information of the other world, and fills all this useful and useless extraterritorial knowledge into Shaoyi's mind? Shaoyi vaguely feels a kind of wonder that he can't explain.
How much will this knowledge base of the extraterritorial world be of great help to the Sword Pavilion today?!Thinking of this, he shook his head, obviously, Shaoyi was not confident enough, and he did not know the results of the Sword Pavilion that he would face next.
Shaoyi was not in a hurry to get out of the house, because he was afraid that when he was busy in the morning, he would easily forget the useless knowledge he had gained in his dreams. So, he continued to sit on the edge of the bed, trying to recall the scenes in his dream:
An elliptical solid egg is trying to split itself, the heart of the egg is torn in half, and the two incomplete solid eggs are constantly trying to grow and grow...... Once again, the oval cores were regrown and perfected into two solid eggs. This is the process by which cells divide organically, and eukaryotic cells divide and produce somatic cells......
"Solid egg" cells float in the sea...... It turns out that living things originated from the ocean, and cells are metabolizing, growing, and differentiating......
Gradually, a creature consisting of a single "solid egg" cell evolved into a creature composed of multiple "solid egg" cells...... A number of multicellular organisms have evolved and many populations have gradually diverged......
The earth is constantly shaking, and the land is colliding, merging, or dividing......
As the earth shook violently, a volcano erupted, and a thick layer of gas formed on the surface of the earth, which was the breeding ground for many living things......
A fish grows legs and slowly climbs up to the shore...... Then the scales grew, and a long neck grew, and at the moment of sticking out the fierce big teeth, one less recognized that it was a dinosaur......
Groups of creature with curly teeth, proboscis and heavy body hair roam the ice fields in search of shrubs, fed on leaves and bark, and are said to be known as mammoths.
In the depths of the distant starfall, a nebula burned, passed through the planet's atmosphere, and crashed into the continent...... Most of the animals on the planet, including dinosaurs, became extinct as a result...... And so on, a gorilla escaped and survived the long years...... A miracle happened! The orangutan stood up, stone in hand...... The primitive man holding the stone put on a straw skirt, and the stone in his hand turned into a sharpened stick......
A giant stone formation, a triangular tomb standing on sand, a statue with a thousand hands, a dead man crucified on a wooden frame, a sailor in search of the Golden Fleece, a hero who constantly pushes the wheels of stone that have rolled down the mountain......
One of Less's eyes moistened.
He seemed to understand a lot, but he didn't seem to understand anything......
For a long time, for a long time......
Shaoyi's thoughts returned to this world, to the kang of the village chief's house in Dayanhe Village.
Xu has been baptized by the civilization of other worlds, and at this time, Shaoyi is ready to face the challenge of today's Sword Pavilion.
At this time, he was rational, calm, and his mind was simple and clear.
......
When he walked into the hall, Shaoyi involuntarily looked at the incense case.
In the incense burner, there was a thin incense stick that had just been lit, and the cigarette smoke spit out by the fine incense was straight and slowly rising, and only when it rose to the height of the deer's eyes on the wall, did it gradually dissipate.
Incense, deer, one less ...... It seems to be a ritual, and it is like a dialogue, and the one less person stands in front of the deer's head and refuses to leave for a long time.
......
For the first time, he had actually caught the energy coming from the deer head, which seemed to be stronger than the silver fir of the Shanba Gong.
The determined strength obtained from the divine deer made Shaoyi calm down, and he quietly stroked the silver fir wood that belonged to him, looking at the delicate, smooth and gentle wood grain like flowing water.
From it, he seemed to see the long past under the traces of mottled years: the first wooden stake laid by the founders of Dayanhe Village here, the first grain planted, and the first piece of wood on the base......
"The tea is ready, let's hurry up and get ready, so that we can rush to the small square in front of the Sword Pavilion. Time was running out, and Old Man Ding had already taken the first step. Coo.
"Goo, tell me what has happened in the last four days? Shaoyi asked while eating a bowl of tea soup.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you wake up......" Coo looked over the table with concern.
......
Shaoyi walked in front, Gugu held the silver fir wood tightly in his hand, and followed behind with a blank face.
The Sword Pavilion was not very far from Geng Ding's mansion. At this time, Shaoyi and Gugu passed through a grass house and a pear orchard, and then came to the claustrophobic and deserted place of Dayanhe Village.
When the green tiles on the top floor of the Sword Pavilion surged like waves on the lake due to the reflection of the sunlight, the palms of Shaoyi's hands were sweaty.
Goo poured the silver fir wood from his left hand to his right hand, blushing and whispering, "Are you nervous......?"
"Don't be nervous, that's a lie," Shaoyi replied very seriously. "I don't think there's anything wrong with being nervous, though, at least it's a reminder not to slack off. Looking at things from a different angle like this, you might as well give it a try. ”
"I can't try, you lack a heart valve to change the perspective of looking at the problem, but I don't lack it. Coo made a joke about Shaoyi's heart petal, indicating that she was not so nervous anymore.
The Sword Pavilion is located in the southeast corner of the Dayan River and is separated by rows of bamboo forests. Except for the sword ceremony held every four years, even Geng Ding and the four elders were not allowed to approach on weekdays. This is the rule left by the patriarch.
For Shaoyi and Gugu, this is the first time they have stood in front of the Sword Pavilion at close range.
The building in front of me and other buildings in the Dayan River are not inconsistent in style, with green tiles, wooden windows, and wooden doors. The only difference is that the Sword Pavilion has two floors, which are not adobe or grass houses, and are all pure wood structures.
According to Geng Ding, the Sword Pavilion is one of the oldest buildings in the village. Flooding, insect damage, sun exposure...... After 200 years, it is not easy.
At this time, the small square on the south side of the Sword Pavilion was already crowded, and the people in the village, including women, children, and children, had already arrived.
These faces are very familiar to Shaoyi and Gugu, although they are all villagers, they can't resolve the tension between the two of them at this time.
Tian Erye changed his style from the past, and he was covered in black shirts, black pants and black shoes. Dressed so formally, it shows that for the villagers, today is a major event that has not been encountered in several years, and it is an important thing for the villagers of Dayan River.
At this time, Tian Er's face was surprised, and what surprised him was not the appearance of Shaoyi, but the yellow-haired girl walking behind Shaoyi.
He Xiangu's performance was even more exaggerated, she pouted her scarlet little mouth, and couldn't help but be surprised:
"Huh, is this going against the sky? Can the little girl also come to show the sword? If there is such a recommendation method, then wouldn't I be able to go to the Sword Pavilion?!"
"Even if the girl is qualified, you won't think that you are still twenty-eight years old, right?" He Xiangu's mother-in-law lost no time in answering the conversation.
"Cut--I He Xiangu was also young, and I was also a kung fu plus, if I hadn't married and got pregnant early, how could it be my husband's turn to compete in the last session ......of the sword?
He Xiangu's wrinkled eyebrows suddenly relaxed, her heart suddenly brightened, and she said loudly: "I really support this female girl to dry her sword, and also extinguish your usual macho majesty." ”
