A good night's sleep, immersed in the refreshing and comfortable, it seems that the whole body is lying in the clear hot spring that flows quietly, this magical feeling moistens the clear body and grows leisurely, and at the same time begins the germination of the spirit element in his body, as long as the spring rain passes, he will become the amazing and handsome charming boy in his dream.

The warm golden sunlight sprinkled into the cabin, and after a good night's sleep, I felt a slight itch and comfortable feeling on my back, and there was no pain at all. Reaching out and touching it, the skin on his back was as smooth as before, and the blood marks on his back shoulders that could be seen yesterday disappeared without a trace, leaving no traces, Mingjie was dumbfounded.
When this happens, Mingjie remembers the dream that has been blurred last night, so comfortable and so strange, even the two people who are most familiar with it, can't remember their faces, except that the brain seems to have been washed and moisturized, the tibia and blood veins of the body have also changed, but when you look down, you are still yourself, a child, the tall and bright and beautiful body in the dream does not belong to you at all. Mingjie, who was originally in a comfortable mood, unconsciously felt a little empty.
The son woke up, and the mother came in, showing a kind smile, holding a bowl of herbal soup, and asked distressedly, "Xiaojie, does it still hurt?"
The clever Xiao Mingjie nodded, and then shook his head vigorously: "It doesn't hurt anymore?"
His cute appearance made people want to laugh, and his mother patted his head and said kindly: "Mom knows that you are a sensible child, don't blame Mom, I really shouldn't have beaten you yesterday, but ......." β
Xiao Mingjie hurriedly stopped her mother and said, "I'm really fine, I don't believe my mother, you see, I'm not injured at all." β
Xiao Mingjie opened her clothes, there was really no scar, not even bruises, and her mother was very surprised. The son is fine, and the mother is naturally very happy, no matter what the reason.
Xiao Mingjie approached her mother's face, saw her eyes red, stretched out her little hand and touched it and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with your eyes?"
Mom pulled away Mingjie's hand, shook her head and said, "When I woke up in the morning, the sand fell into my eyes, and now I'm okay?"
The innocent Xiao Mingjie took it seriously, sat up, rubbed her cute little face and said, "Mom, I'm hungry!"
A mother, as long as her son says that he is hungry, he will be busy cooking for his son, Xiao Mingjie is his heart, she touched Mingjie's black little hair and said happily: "Mom, I'm going to cook." β
After my mother left, I didn't need to drink the herbs, Mingjie beat the back of my head, tried to recall last night's dream, jumped under the bed and looked around, but I didn't find anything, it was just a dream, I remember that I got a particularly good-looking set of clothes, the room was empty and there was nothing, and I returned to reality Mingjie was so lost, everything was a dream, there were only old clothes that had been torn on the bed, and I stretched out my feet to rub them all to the ground, and a pair of shoes on the ground also broke my right shoe, revealing my toes.
Mingjie, who hastily put on old clothes, came to the yard barefoot, hungry, but fortunately an apple in the yard was already half-ripe, and the spirit climbed up to the branch, and after looking for a long time, he picked a red fruit, and sat down on the tree to eat it. Xiao Mingjie is hungry, sometimes, as long as he eats some fruits to fill his stomach, although he is a picky eater, he is particularly fond of eating fruits, sitting on the tree with his legs swinging, leisurely.
"Brother, I'm so hungry, give me a ........ to eat. The faint voice of a child pleading could be heard.
"You tail dog, don't follow me, you're such a nasty puppy. β
After the scolding, a small child began to cry, so loudly that almost half of the small village could hear it. Mingjie, who was sitting on the apple tree, climbed to the treetops again, and followed the sound to look through the leaves.
The thin Xiao Haitao stared at Xiao Yunwei, who was scared and crying yesterday, Yun Wei was holding a steamed bun and eating it, and Xiao Haitao was asking him for food. In this season, Xiao Haitao's family is out of food again, their family has a seriously ill mother, who is already poor, often with rice bran mixed with a little coarse grain to satisfy hunger, but Xiao Haitao, this kid is as picky as Mingjie, that thing can hardly be swallowed, at home, often because of eating, he is often beaten and cried.
At a young age, Xiao Haitao was as thin as a little monkey, and he couldn't stand the hunger, so he would reach out to the people in the village to ask for food, and most of the neighbors would lead him to eat at home, and sometimes he would inevitably be insulted by others.
"Xiaowei, don't give it to him, hit this little tail dog. β
I heard Xie Hong's voice again, obviously it didn't matter anything to him, and I got angry when I saw him Mingjie, it wasn't enough to teach him yesterday, he was really a hateful guy.
"Haitao, come here, my brother will pick fruits for you to eat. β
Mingjie, who was sitting on the tree, waved to Xiao Haitao, and the two children heard Mingjie's shout, and they didn't dare to speak loudly anymore, for fear that Mingjie would beat them again, so they threw down Xiao Haitao and ran away. Xiao Haitao, who ran under the tree, wiped his tears, stood at the foot of the courtyard wall, and looked up at Mingjie. Xiao Mingjie picked a few apples and threw them to Xiao Haitao, Xiao Haitao didn't catch any of them, they fell to the ground and broke them, he picked them up and sent them to his mouth.
Xiao Haitao follows Mingjie, and will always get some mountain fruits and game to satisfy his hunger, and sometimes Mingjie's kind mother also asks Xiao Haitao to eat. Xiao Mingjie can be regarded as pampered at home, occasionally able to eat white rice and hard-boiled eggs, few children in the village can have such special treatment, the pieces are too naughty, Mingjie doesn't like to eat eggs very much, many times Mingjie gives Xiao Haitao.
Xiao Haitao was indeed too hungry, he ate three big apples in a row, and looked up at Mingjie again. Yesterday did not catch too many fish for him, maybe he did not eat enough when he went home at night, Xiao Haitao could not eat coarse bran grain, often hungry and crying and noisy, so angry that he was seriously ill and his mother cried and beaten, adults and children cried together.
Xiao Mingjie jumped down from the tree, raised his hand and patted his head and said, "If you eat so much, I'm afraid you'll have stomach trouble, don't eat it." β
Xiao Haitao blinked: "Brother, I'm still hungry." β
The skinny little Haitao, with only this pair of eyes, makes people feel smart, malnourished for a long time, like a little monkey, very pitiful, fortunately he brought back a rabbit yesterday and ate a little bit yesterday.
"Don't eat, I'll eat for a while, I'll kill you. My mom made rice, I'll share some with you in a moment, and rabbit meat. Mingjie pushed his thin body.
When Xiao Haitao heard that he wanted to eat rice, he happily pulled Mingjie and jumped up, like a little monkey. Mingjie, this child, not only looks aura, but also white and pure, as pure as diamond light, everyone loves her, and the neighbors make fun of Mingjie's mother for raising Mingjie as a young master, so she will look so pure and lovely.
"Son, dad is back, let's see what I have brought you?"
This is the familiar voice of Mingjie's father, a burly and tall man, with dark skin flashing with the charm of the sun, and a hearty smile, such a strong father, no wonder he can give birth to such a baby-like smart boy.
Finally waiting for her father to come back, Mingjie rushed over and jumped into his arms and hugged his father's neck. When the father saw his baby son, the exhaustion on his body was swept away, and he gently pinched his bright and lovely ears and asked, "Are you obedient at home, is it another trouble?"
Knowing that the son is better than the father, where can Xiao Mingjie's illness escape his father's eyes, it seems that this father has been accustomed to his character of causing trouble, whenever Mingjie causes trouble, he always lets it go, Mingjie's stubbornness, maybe it has a little to do with the father's connivance.
Xiao Mingjie didn't know how to answer her father, so she shook her head lightly and asked, "Dad, what did you bring me back?"
Father put down a good-looking bag and opened it for Mingjie to see, it was all some brand new books and pens, as well as some delicious sweets.
"You can go to school outside the mountain tomorrow, and you don't have to go up the mountain every day to herd cattle in the future, study hard, and be admitted to university in the future, so you don't have to deal with dirt like your father. β
Xiao Mingjie didn't look so happy, slightly wrinkled her delicate little eyebrows and said: "What's so good about studying, I just want to herd cattle and sheep, and be more comfortable!"
The father put down his smile and said a little seriously: "That's not good, studying is a major event in a lifetime, only studying can be successful, and you must listen to the teacher's words in the future and study hard." β
Xiao Mingjie tilted her head and nodded, flashing a pair of black and bright water-permeable eyes, and promised her father.
Xiao Haitao behind him raised his head and asked, "Uncle, what are you doing studying?"
Mingjie's father scratched Xiao Haitao's hair and said kindly: "Studying not only has rice to eat, but also earns a lot of money!"
Xiao Haitao then innocently asked: "What is money? If I have rice to eat, then I will also go to school." β
"Money can buy a lot of good food, you can also have a big house, as long as you want to buy anything. Father still patiently said to Xiao Haitao.
Xiao Haitao said innocently: "Uncle, I also have to go to school, earn a lot of money, buy a lot of rice, and let my mother eat rice." β
Xiao Mingjie is older than Xiao Haitao, and much more sensible than Xiao Haitao, so he pulled Xiao Haitao and said, "Why do you only know how to eat?, now I'll take you to eat rice." β
The father looked at Xiao Haitao, shook his head helplessly and sighed, a hungry and scared child, naΓ―ve enough to just want to be full, and his family can't even guarantee basic food, how to let him go to school!
The naΓ―ve little Haitao, who had eaten an apple just now, was a little full, and when he heard that Jie was going to school, he also trotted home happily. Looking at him, Mingjie and his father didn't know what he was going to do, looked at each other, didn't care about him, and walked into the house together to prepare breakfast.
Returned home, just sat down, Xiao Haitao's familiar cry came from outside the house, and it was also accompanied by her mother's crying and scolding, I don't know what happened again, it seems that this time the fight is more fierce than any time, Mingjie's mother was angry, and hurriedly went out to see.
The crying is still the same, after a while, Mingjie's mother took Xiao Haitao home, the child who was already thin was beaten and scolded fiercely, crying a little sobbing, very sad, looking like that, if you are not careful, you may cry and faint.
It turned out that after Xiao Haitao ran back home, he was clamoring to go to school with Mingjie, his mother was angry, and the son was very troubled, so he could only beat him out of anger, and the mother and son cried together.
Mother brought back Xiao Haitao, the child cried louder, coaxed for a long time, before stopping the crying, the mother will give Mingjie specially made rice, share some for him to eat, and at the same time there is rabbit meat specially left yesterday. Xiao Haitao was beaten by his mother in order to go to school, this incident invisibly stung Mingjie, and secretly vowed to go to school hard, since he promised his father, he must do his best and not live up to his parents' expectations.
was about to eat, at this time an old man walked in, the crutches knocked very loudly, Mingjie ran to the yard, smiled lightly, held the old man's crutches and said, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you, who made you angry." β
The father also came out, and seeing that the old man was very angry, he hurriedly welcomed him in and asked, "Uncle, what's wrong?"
The old man sighed and said: "The dog and the second cow in the neighboring village are really damned, how can they dig up the ancient tomb on Meiling, it is really damned, it is really damned, it is extremely hateful, it is extremely hateful." β
The father also frowned and said, "How can they be like this, it is a tomb of thousands of years, and it has been fine, how can it be broken in our generation!"
At the same time, Shaoyun's grandmother walked tremblingly, shook her head vigorously and said: "It's really a sin, I heard that those two cubs also went to the west near the Yunnan Sea, and invited many people to dig up the ancient tombs, and now there is a magic barrier." β
The old man was extremely angry, blowing his beard and said: "If it weren't for the nonsense of the demon barrier, I wouldn't know that the people who secretly dug up the ancient tomb in Meiling made them really retribution and deserved it." β
The old woman put down a box in her hand and said to the old man: "His grandfather, the matter has been done, but the bones can't be exposed, so let's go to the mountains and ask the old Miao master to rebury the ancient tomb! β
The old man nodded, took the box and handed it to Mingjie's father, and said, "Eldest grandson and nephew, I still have to work for you, go and invite Master Lao Miao to do the deeds, and rebury the remains of the ancient tomb, hoping to get the forgiveness of the gods." β
Hearing this, Mingjie gritted his teeth, there is an ancient tomb on Meiling, where he likes to play the most, how did it be dug up, it is really hateful, yesterday I knew that they dug the grave on Meiling, and they must let the old scalper kill those bastards. When I heard that there was a magic barrier, I was happy again, so I asked Shaoyun's grandmother:
"Grandma, what's the magic barrier?"
Grandma looked at Mingjie and smiled lightly and said, "Little child, why are you asking so much, are your injuries healed?"
Mingjie nodded, pulled his shoulders and said, "Okay, it's all grandma, your herbs are good, they don't hurt anymore, and there are no traces." β
Seeing that the scar had been restored, grandma was a little surprised, and smiled slightly, this child seems to have a different body in addition to being able to fight, is it because when he was born, the effect of the small plum blossom on his body, the physique is different from ordinary people?
The matter was very urgent, the father left in a hurry, and the two old men also went to their respective businesses. Mingjie didn't know why the adults were so anxious, the grave was dug up, why didn't they bury it directly, but they still had to ask the mage to do things.
The village is so lively, the children think it is very fun, a gong and drum, and then the villagers voluntarily organize to go up the mountain to fill the grave, restore the original appearance of the ancient tomb on Meiling Mountain, all activities are presided over by an old Miao person. Ming Jie peeked at it from a distance, the mage with a big hat on his head and a lone seedling, the flame burning was actually a light blue outer flame, facing the wind, and he released something in his hand, and the flame exploded into a ball, with a blue flame ball in the middle, which was very weird. Later, Mingjie also heard from the people in the village, and the mage said that the village had been forgiven by the owner of the ancient tomb, so the blue flame appeared, and it should be fine.
