Chapter 163: The Second Dream
The sun is shining in Qizhou, but Shuangqing Mansion ushered in a summer rain.
The rain is to leave people behind, Li Xuandu and Qin Su stayed in the Temple of the Four Truths, and did not go to Shi Wuyue's side to eat vegetarian food, but ate two bowls of somen noodles on the side of the Dharma Master. said that it was one serving for one person, Li Xuandu ate it with relish, and after Qin Su just took a bite, he put down his chopsticks and looked at Li Xuandu with blank eyes. Now that the two of them have a heart, Li Xuandu still doesn't understand anything, and after eating his own bowl, he will also solve her bowl.
Soon after eating the noodles, Li Xuandu felt slightly sleepy, at this time there was a loud thunder outside, the sound of rain was noisy, and they all said that it was a great pleasure to listen to the sound of rain to sleep, Li Xuandu simply took a break in the guest room.
Then he had another dream.
The beginning of this time, not the change of the imperial capital, but many years later, at this time, the heroes rose together, competing for the world, there was a true dragon born in heaven, the Li family, the Qin family fell one after another, at this time Li Xuandu and Qin Su have been married, in the repeated fighting, seriously injured, lost a body of cultivation, lost all the external objects, suffered serious injuries to the body, became fragile, weak and weak, after luckily saving his life, Li Xuandu fled to a remote town with Qin Su, who was pregnant, and hid his name here.
The two of them lived in a small house, there was no difference between inside and outside, they could only barely put down a table and two beds, and even the cooking stove had to be built under the outside wall, and then a shed was built, and every time it rained heavily, there would always be water leaks.
Not long after, Qin Su gave birth to a son for Li Xuandu, and the already poor life became more and more miserable. After Li Xuandu lost all his identity and connections and realm cultivation, he was almost useless, he could only do some coolies, and occasionally help people write down letters and family letters to subsidize the family, because it was a small town, so no one could learn music and rhythm, and no one would buy books, Qin Su had no place to use, in addition to all kinds of trivial housework on weekdays, he took care of his son. Probably because the two of them were too frightened when they fled, this child has been weak and sickly since he was born, almost a medicine jar, and most of the money saved by the two of them was used to catch medicine, so Qin Su had to do a lot of needlework for people, almost all day and night without a half-minute stop.
This kind of life lasted for several years, and the two of them saved money and borrowed money to buy a very simple loom, because there was no condition for raising silkworms, they could only spend money to buy cotton, and then spin the cotton thread, and then use the loom to weave cotton cloth, Qin Su was busy from morning to night, and it took about a month and a half to weave a piece of cloth, and then after the cloth shop sold it, in addition to the money to buy cotton, he could probably earn a penny, on average, he could earn about 20 yuan a day.
Although it was very hard, they could save their lives, and with their sons, the two had nothing else to ask for. It's just that occasionally I worry about my son's marriage when he grows up, most of such a sick son can't do heavy work, and the family is poor, where will there be a woman with him. The two had to save some more money, as long as the bride price was heavier, they could still marry.
As the days passed, Li Xuandu seemed much older than his actual age because of his perennial fatigue, and Qin Su had a lot of pain. I don't know when Qin Su always felt stuffy in his chest and a little out of breath, but he didn't go to the doctor because he had no money at home.
On this day, the sun set, after the last afterglow disappeared, Qin Su stopped weaving, because candles and lamp oil were too expensive, at this time the sons of the two were feverish again, their little faces were flushed, and they were talking nonsense, Qin Su twisted a towel for his son to cover his head, and suddenly felt dizzy, it was very difficult to breathe, and his body was also indescribably tired, so she asked Li Xuandu, who had just come back from work, to help take care of her son, and she went to bed to rest for a while.
Li Xuan didn't think much about it, and when he went to see Qin Su again after he comforted his son to sleep, he found that her lips were purple and black, and she was already silent.
Because he had already experienced a dream, Li Xuandu now vaguely knew that he was in a dream, but when he saw Qin Su's suffocated and blackened emaciated face, a huge pain and irrepressible sadness still welled up in his heart, making him unable to distinguish between reality and dreams.
Because all kinds of things in the dream are too real, the two fled together, the trivial things of life, the common son, and the hard work over the years are really imprinted in Li Xuandu's mind, although life is difficult, but the two people support them to move forward, but they can also have fun in the bitterness, and now that the other person is gone, how should the remaining person live?
So a rope sleeve appeared on the beams.
Just stick your head in and kick the stool under your feet, and you'll be gone, and you'll be able to meet someone who has walked a step earlier.
At this time, Li Xuan was immersed in grief, confused, and didn't know where he was.
At the moment when the stool fell, Li Xuandu woke up suddenly.
Outside, dark clouds were still rolling, cloudy, and windy. In the deafening thunder, the raindrops "snapped" and fell, and such a loud noise outside failed to wake up Li Xuandu's good sleep.
It shows that this dream is not simple.
Li Xuandu reached out and touched his face, and found that he had burst into tears at some point.
By his side, Qin Suzheng sat in front of the bed, holding a book in his hand, and he was fascinated.
Li Xuandu looked at Qin Su's side face beside him, he had never had yellow muscles and thin faces, nor had his face darkened, he was still that beauty, flawless. A sense of lost joy welled up in his heart.
This room is not big, a few zhang square, not far from the bed is a round table with a tea set, there is a bookcase against the wall, there are many books, there is a small table next to the bookshelf, there is a delicate incense burner, there is a soothing fragrance throughout, it is very pleasant.
Qin Suzheng saw a touching place, and suddenly felt a pair of hands gently holding her waist.
She was startled at first, and her whole body froze, then slowly softened again, and looked back: "Brother Xuan, are you awake?"
Li Xuandu leaned his face on her shoulder and answered in a low voice.
Qin Su noticed something unusual, put down the book in his hand, and pushed Li Xuandu with a slightly red face, but found that his hand was wet, and then raised his eyes, and couldn't help but be surprised: "You, why are you crying?"
Li Xuandu settled down, let himself gradually get rid of the influence of the dream, and told Qin Su the dream he had just had.
Qin Su listened to Li Xuandu's description, his eyes were full of water, and his expression seemed to be sad and happy, and it was not until Li Xuandu finished telling that he let out a long sigh: "Brother Xuan, it is really wonderful that we can share weal and sorrow together." ”
Li Xuandu was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect such a big difference in thinking between men and women, and only said after a while: "This is not the point. ”
Qin Su took the initiative to hug him for the first time, put his side face on his chest, and said quietly: "Although it is a little harder, it is better than you being the emperor." If I had to choose, I would rather be an ordinary woman than a rare concubine. ”
Li Xuandu smiled wordlessly, and could only forcibly change the topic: "I still underestimate the demons in my heart, the hard one last time, the soft one this time, since I died once in the last dream, my anger has become heavier, and this time I died again, I'm afraid that the anger will be heavier." ”
After Qin Su heard this, he slowly straightened up, and it was difficult to hide his worry: "It's another heart demon attack, and listening to what you said, this heart demon seems to be constantly changing." ”
Li Xuandu nodded and said, "This is the terrible part, it is simply impossible to prevent it." ”
Qin Su hesitated for a moment and said, "These two dreams are related to me, aren't we ...... Isn't it better to be separated for a while?"
Having said that, Qin Su's tone was involuntarily lowered, obviously she had come all the way, and she didn't want to be separated from her lover so soon, but she was worried about her lover's safety, so she had to make this decision.
Li Xuandu shook his head: "There is a confidant in the sea, and the end of the world is like a neighbor." If I have you in my heart, you are near in the sky. If I don't have you in my heart, you're far away in front of me. What difference does it make between us and when we are not separated?"
Qin Su's heart was sweet, but he still didn't let go of his worries, and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
Li Xuan didn't answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.
