Qingqing is inhuman.

The old man who ferryed always said this, Qingqing is inhuman.

From Qingling to Qingdu, there is an official road to the east.

This official road is close to the border of Qingdu to a small city called Qiufengdu, there is a winding stream, and there is a family living by the stream, only an old man and a young girl.

The stream flows down and winds around several mountains for about three miles, eventually joining the Autumn Wind Crossing.

The stream is like a bow, and the mountain road is like a bowstring, and there is a small difference between distance and proximity. The creek is about 20 zhang, clear and transparent, and the fish in the river can be counted.

The creek is a hole between Qingdu and Qingling, and the water often rises and falls.

The ferry, with its people and horses, can carry about 20 passengers across the river, and when there are many people, it comes and goes repeatedly.

A small bamboo pole was erected at the head of the ferry, and a movable iron ring was hung, and a section of iron chain was tied to the trough at both ends of the streambank.

The ferry is owned by the government, so the ferry people do not have to pay. It's just that a little people are uneasy in their hearts, and they will just throw a handful of copper coins.

The man who managed the ferry was the old man who lived by the stream, and lived seventy years. Guarding this creek, for fifty years, I don't know how many people have crossed the boat to and fro.

He should have rested, but the heavens did not allow him to rest, and it seemed that he could not leave this life.

He never seemed to be troubled, just quietly and honestly lived there. When the sun rises, it is labor. When the sun goes down, he does not think about when he will die at the same time as the sun.

His only family member was a girl of about thirteen or fourteen.

The girl's mother-in-law was very secretly together with the soldier who was passing by, and the two agreed to leave together.

The soldier violated his responsibility, a lonely old father who must also leave, after some consideration, seeing the woman hesitate again and again, the man is thinking that the same life is not the same head, and death is to stay together for a lifetime.

The first to take the poison is to die hastily.

The woman thought of a piece of meat in her belly, and she couldn't bear it, so she lived her life very calmly.

The daughter was ashamed and pitiful, and continued to stay with the old father, but the day after the birth of the fetus in her womb, she ate too much cold water by the stream and died.

Qingqing is raised in the deep mountains, with the clear and moving mountains and rivers in her eyes, staying on the ferry every day, playing with an inch of bamboo leaves, like a deer who does not know the world.

But after knowing the complexity of the human world, I ran to the shore to play.

The old man didn't let Qingqing call his grandfather, but just called the master, and never explained the reason.

The old man never gave Qingqing a name, and said that the word Qingqing was enough.

Although it is a pass connecting merchants, there are occasional days when no one is ferrying.

At this time, the old man will always sit on the bow of the boat with Qingqing, with cloudy eyes and old hands, he will be very patient to curl his hair for Qingqing.

He will say that he has raised Qingqing very well, but he can't say what is good.

"Qingqing is inhuman."

This is what the old man often says, he said that Qingqing was born with the aura of heaven and earth, borrowed a shell from the world, and unlike ordinary children, Qingqing can only grow up in this place with beautiful mountains and rivers.

If you change places, there is too much turbidity in the world, everything is so dirty, Qingqing will become weaker and weaker.

Qingqing will ask, what is he?

"Qingqing is a little grass demon who grew up with the aura of heaven and earth, but the turbidity in the world is getting more and more turbid, and the place of cultivation is getting smaller and smaller, and many demons devour each other, and in the end, only Qingqing is left."

He said that people are dirty, muddy, and disgusting, and that it is better to stay away.

But every day they ferried, they never left the world.
