Chapter 5, Grinding

The wind is fluttering, the rain is dashing,

I can't sleep even if I do it.

Annoyed and sorrowful,

Burst into tears.

The autumn cicadas are noisy and cold,

The drizzle hits the plantains......

The sound of Langlang books, you can feel the gentle breeze of summer by the orderly and green terraced fields, and there is a private school in the thatched cottage next to the farmland. The children listened attentively to the teachings of the gentleman, and the classic verses of the classics came to life in their reading voices.

These landscapes, which you may not even experience in the suburbs away from the hustle and bustle of the city, are completely different in terms of the temperature you feel in the summer. If you focus on the blurred eyes, the farmers working in the fields are harvesting the summer grain bareback, and the industrious and simple painting style is moving. Eyes shifted to the private school, and the teacher at the door was dressed in "dragging" and holding the manuscript in his hand, and there were words in his mouth...

"Me"!?

"In ancient times"!?

Yu Wenfang opened her big mouth without letting out a sound, her eyes were dumbfounded... The brain is racing...

Fangzi looked at her body again, she was dressed the same as usual, but the environment was different.

She walked around the farmland to the private school and looked at everything in the room. The six students of the summer private school sat in a row, their long hair curled and their coats on, and they carefully pondered every sentence of the lesson taught by the private school teacher.

"Who are you looking for?"

Mr. Teacher approached Yoshiko and asked.

Yu Wenfang hesitated for a while, and was speechless for a while, not knowing how to communicate face-to-face with a person from six hundred years ago.

"I, I... I, I'm here to shop, I'm going to shop. Hey, hey, hey, hey"!

Yu Wenfang smiled awkwardly but politely and said.

"Then you're from another village, right?"

The gentleman lowered his head, not daring to look at the strangely dressed "woman". First, it is out of the sense of self-psychological protection. The second is to keep a distance from Yoshiko.

"How far are you, sir, from the city?"

"City"?

"It's a village, but there's a town not far from here!"

After speaking, the gentleman walked into the cottage.

"That ....."

What Yoshiko originally wanted to say seemed to have been stuffed into her stomach and left unspoken. She did not interrupt the teaching atmosphere of the private school. Quietly wait for the teacher to communicate with the students in class. Feel the breeze of the ancient times.

The sun at noon is just right, not hot. The breeze makes people stay out of the world. The green cattle in the farmland leisurely swept their tails and enjoyed the day's "sun bathing" and fresh grass feed. Yu Wenfang raised her head and looked into the distance, looking at the blue sky and white clouds.

White Stupa...!

The other side of the mountain must have been very religious, in those days.

Yoshiko began to close her eyes. Relaxing blues music echoed in the head.

Relax your mind, relax your whole body...

"Girl",

"Are you still here?"

The gentleman patted Fangzi, interrupting her realization at this moment.

"Mr. gets out of class so early"?

Yu Wenfang shook her head and looked at this teacher in surprise.

"Well, nothing happened today. There was nothing wrong with the children, their parents were going back to the village before sunset, so classes were left early. ”

The gentleman stroked his beard and said. But I couldn't help but look Fangzi up and down from time to time.

"You're not from here, are you?"

The gentleman then asked.

"Yes, uh... I'm not from here."

Yoshiko whispered.

"Come to my house for dinner, see that you are not a local, if you don't dislike it, there is a daughter in the family waiting to go home for dinner together."

The gentleman said to Yoshiko as he put away the cloth bag.

"Yes sir".

After Yu Wenfang finished speaking, he followed Mr. Jiaoshu from the farmland private school to the "Tulou" alley, from the gate to the stairwell, everything Fangzi saw felt familiar. When I came to the corner, I saw a simple horse shed in front of me, and a girl of the same age as Yu Wenfang was sitting in a corner of the wall.

"Huiwei"...

"It's Huiwei" ......!

Yu Wenfang didn't say a word, but shouted the girl's name in her heart. In front of her eyes, there is a "partner" who has no intersection but is so familiar ....

In the evening, the sun takes advantage of the fading sky and turns from pale blue to black. The young men and women of Tulou who rushed from the town to the market returned home from the town in a bustling manner. In order to reunite with the family and eat a hot meal, the hard work of the day can be regarded as an explanation.

Mr. Jiaoshu brought the food to the table and called his daughter to sit at the table with Yoshiko.

"He is Qiu, he can't be wrong, it's Qiu Shilang"....

Yu Wenfang observed the words and expressions, and quietly watched the words and deeds of the two members of the Qiu family at the dinner table.

Huiwei has always maintained Fangzi's understanding of her, well-behaved, serious, and knowledgeable. He has a gentle attitude and distance towards everything. Her father, "Qiu", still has a scholarly and elegant personality and a virtuous posture of etiquette. Although in this relatively simple environment, there is no longer the heroic posture it once had. But when he put on the "trolling" that was once in the court, although it was a little old, he wore a temperament that others did not have.

"Sir is wearing an official uniform, right?"

Fangzi knew how Qiu Rui would react when he said this, his expression, and even his inner monologue.

"Yes"!

Mr. Teaching ate the food in the bowl with a blank face.

"Sir, may I stay with you for a few days? I can't find my way home"!

Yu Wenfang blurted out the concerns in her heart.

"Yes, my daughter and I used to be the same, and now ten years have passed."

"Hey........"

The gentleman then turned his head out the window and silently watched the bright summer moon.

After eating, Yu Wenfang said good night to Qiu Rui and was greeted by the villagers to the next room to rest. Fangzi returned to the room and sighed at Huiwei's calmness and intellectuality at this age.

"Why didn't she take the initiative to talk to me? Let's find a chance to talk to her. ”

With all the doubts and dreams that lingered, Yu Wenfang covered the quilt...

The next morning, Yoshiko was woken up by the crisp birdsong of the Tulou grove. After a simple wash, Yu Wenfang was attracted by the conversation in the next room. So he sneaked to the window to inspect, although he couldn't hear the content of the conversation clearly, but there were three people in the lobby of the house, including Qiu Rui, and they should be very familiar with the situation. But one of them was dressed very strangely, wearing a gray robe and soapy boots on the soles of his feet, but he was very "handsome", but the hat and veil covered the man's face and he couldn't recognize his appearance. Just when Fangzi was puzzled, she saw that the man was holding a "waist card" in his hand! If you look closely, the word "step" comes into view.

"What grade is this?" "What is the identity of this man?"

Just as Yoshiko was thinking, she was tapped on the shoulder.

"Why don't you come into the house"?

In Huiwei's words, Fangzi turned her head suddenly, as embarrassed as a mouse that had been caught red-handed.

"I... I'd like to hear what they're saying... Unfamiliar so want to check it out... Huh".

Yoshiko smiled politely at Hui.

"The people in the house were all friends of my father, and it was my brother who was masked."

After Huiwei finished speaking, she led Fangzi into the door, bypassing the lobby and coming to the second bedroom.

"What I know about this building is an ancient building in the period of Jian'an, the eldest grandson of Dayue Taizu."

Fangzi looked at Huiwei and said.

"You know"?

After Huiwei finished speaking, she picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, and replied seemingly calmly, she knew clearly in her heart that the history of this tulou would not be known to strangers except for the aborigines.

"I was in an extracurricular training institution and listened to the teacher's lectures to remember."

Yu Wenfang said.

"Okay, I'll go out and ask Auntie to change your clothes."

After answering Fangzi's words, Huiwei silently walked out of the room, avoiding Yu Wenfang's gaze and coming to Qiu Rui's side. Then after the masked man said a few words in his ear, he saw the masked man suddenly get up and quickly come to Yoshiko's room, took out a sharp blade from his pocket with one hand, firmly controlled Yoshiko with the other hand, pressed it against the wall, and said:

"Where are you from? , how do you know the address here"?

In an instant, Yu Wenfang's body was hit by a sudden external force and couldn't bear it. Then he screamed...

"I, I am..."

Yu Wenfang's mouth was sealed by the masked man's elbow, and he was speechless for a while, and then was sent to a stove room in Tulou by the man next to Qiu Rui with a prepared rope tied hand and foot....

The kitchen stove was covered in dust and damp, and it looked like no one had been in this room for a long time, let alone a huddle. Yu Wenfang's hands and feet couldn't move, her mouth was firmly blocked by strips of cloth and she couldn't speak, and the gray room seemed to be shrouded in a layer of shadows. Fangzi was at a loss, she began to miss her parents, the bits and pieces of her life with her parents, and the warm clips of her best friend Jiang Lili taking care of her at school. But she couldn't talk to the person she loved the most, she was imprisoned in her body, along with her thoughts and limbs, in the era of "Da Yue".

As night approached, the light in the stove room became darker and darker. Yu Wenfang stayed in the closed room for a whole day, although she was a person who returned here from the future, but now she didn't know what her current fate would be? What kind of treatment will you be treated here? Can you get back to your parents and friends? How will she spend her time here? In the dark room, thoughts like these filled her day, and she wanted to wait for an opportunity to solve everything. At this time, she traveled to this era, which confirms a proverb: "Looking back on the years, it begins with the present"!

Hui Wei's gentle footsteps approached the stove room, pushing open the door and shining into the room, Yu Wenfang curled up on the side of the wall. Huiwei handed the rice bowl in her hand to Yu Wenfang and said:

"Eat".

"You and your father will die in rebellion"!

Fangzi's gaze was firmly fixed on Huiwei.

“......”

Hui Wei calmly did not speak, turned her head and walked out the door.

"How long am I going to be locked up here!?

Yu Wenfang shouted, but no one responded.

When night came, Fangzi, who was bound hand and foot, put her mouth into the rice bowl in the simple stove room and ate the most special "dinner" in her life. Although he felt innocent, he believed that Huiwei's father and daughter would definitely come back to listen to her explanation.

Don't ask about the previous dynasty when you are sad, and return to the royal platform.

Where the partridge cries, the east wind grass is green, and the flowers are blooming.

Suddenly lonely roar, the old country of green mountains, arbor moss.

At that time, the bright moon, Yiyi Suying, where did it fly from?
