Chapter 22: Dreams
After I saw the portrait at the moonbreeze that day, I always dreamed of the moon, the reef, and the fairy in white when I slept at night, because his portrait did not have the appearance of a fairy, and I was always curious to see what the fairy looked like, and I woke up every time before I was about to see her face.
I also had such a dream in Kunlun once, but the fairy in the dream at that time was in the peach forest, although I didn't see the appearance of the fairy clearly, but I knew that the fairy in white in the peach forest was the divine bird Qingluan. But in my dream of the reef under the moon, it seems that I am alone with the fairy in the peach forest.
The Queen Mother said that we are born immortals, and we must have compassion for all things in the world and feel the feelings of all things in order to protect the world. When I dreamed of the peach forest fairy before, it was because the old man of the peach tree told me the story of Qingluan, and now I dream of the reef under the moon, is it because I saw the moonwind's love for the picture scroll. Are we so empathetic as bluebirds?
But that divine bird Qingluan is really closely related to my life, she is the owner of the peach forest where I grew up, and she is also the benefactor of the person I like, I always feel curious, is she also related to the moon wind?
Moon Wind mentioned Luan Xingyi to me before, and also said that the ancient gods, the Six Realms Monarch Father has his own stars. I slept more than I woke up these days, and Rong He was worried about me, and when I was asleep, he probed my soul and found that my spirit was unstable and felt like it was about to disperse.
He was shocked, too, when he was at the bottom of Dongting Lake, he saw the divine bird appearing in the world, and sealed Chiyou, he originally thought that I would disappear with the divine bird, but he didn't want the feather I gave him to hide a wisp of my divine soul, it is because of this wisp of divine soul, my blue bird has not dissipated in the heaven and earth, but only a wisp of divine soul can support it, and it is just a lingering breath.
I also felt it myself, it seemed that I couldn't drag this body more and more, I begged Rong He, always take me with me, he went to the court, I turned into the original form and stayed in his sleeve, he got off the court, I slept deeply in his sleeve, sometimes I had to sleep until the midnight star rose before waking up, awake for less than two hours, and fell asleep again.
He saw me like this, and he searched the ancient books and read the healing methods every day, but he was not allowed to enter the door. The soul of the gods is not under the jurisdiction of the underworld, and if the soul is scattered, there is nothing to do about inviting the Western Buddha. So while I was still alive, Rong He stopped the court, which had never happened in two thousand years.
He took me to Kunlun in person to see the Queen Mother of the West.
The Queen Mother of the West had returned from the Shangqing Realm at this time, and Kunlun was still in retreat, but she seemed to be expecting the arrival of the Emperor of Heaven. Rong He carefully took me out of his sleeve and put it in front of the queen mother, the Xuannu was not by the queen mother's side at the moment, there were only the two of them in the main hall of Yaochi, and there was a sleeping me.
Rong He saluted the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother didn't care, and said, "Emperor of Heaven, I know what you are here for, but this time, I can't do anything. ”
Rong He's face turned pale, he saluted the queen mother again, got up and said, "That is the case, but this seat is disturbing." ”
The queen mother watched Rong He hide my precious thing in his sleeve and prepare to leave, so she spoke: "Emperor of Heaven, you and I both know who Tao Yu is, at this moment Luan Xing will be extinguished, Qingluan will die, this is the destiny of heaven, no one can do anything." ”
Rong He stood with his back to the Queen Mother, and after listening to the Queen Mother's words, he said: "I don't believe in the Mandate of Heaven, since I am the monarch of heaven and earth, what I ask for is the Mandate of Heaven." ”
The queen mother saw that he was persistent, but said: "You are how this Kunlun has escaped from the world for two thousand years, but it is just to protect the bloodline of the last spirit beast in this heaven and earth." Although I don't know what past Ah Luan had with you before, but the reason why she died and turned into a blue bird last time was not also due to you. ”
Rong He's figure moved, turned to look at the Queen Mother, and said, "I chose to miss once, and I don't want to make a mistake a second time." ”
The queen mother sneered: "She is a spirit beast of heaven and earth, extremely noble, and she died twice for you, if you still have a trace of kindness, you should have let her go." She turned into a blue bird this time, it is the result of my master and me working together to protect her soul, even if she can't return to her soul, it's okay to be a blue bird forever, but it's still your demon, into your phase, the current situation, is caused by you. ”
Rong He didn't have the heart to argue again, if I delay here for a minute longer, I will have less vitality, he saluted the queen mother, prepared to leave, and just walked to the door of the main hall.
The queen mother seemed to be unbearable, I don't know if it was to me or to Rong He, she called Rong He, and then turned out a copy of "Tongxuan Sitting and Forgetting the Sutra" in her hand, put it in front of Rong He, and then waved her hand to close the door of the palace.
Rong He took this scripture that he had never read, it was given by the queen mother, and the way to resolve it was in it, the emperor did not kneel down to all things, but at this moment he held the scripture in both hands, stood outside the temple door, and bowed down seriously.
Rong He did not take me back to the Heavenly Palace, but took me to an immortal mountain in the mortal realm, which is two hundred and thirty miles west of Kunlun and is called Sanwei.
When I woke up, I was in a thatched hut, and there was no one around me except Rong He.
When I woke up this time, I felt that my spirit was very good, not like I always felt tired before, and I thought that it must be some method that Rong He used to make me recover. When I woke up, Rong He was making tea, this thatched hut is in a bamboo forest, very elegant, even the materials of this house are also made of a lot of bamboo, although this is not a fairy world, but full of aura, I feel very comfortable here.
Rong He saw me wake up, called me over to drink tea, as if I just simply slept well, I went to sit down obediently, he poured me a cup, a piece of bamboo cut off in the right place, just made this cup of tea, the fragrance of tea hits people, people feel that the Lingtai is clear, I have never been to the mortal world, I feel very fresh, asked Rong He where is here, he said that this is Sanwei Mountain, before he was still the concubine of the heavenly realm, when he lived here with his mother.
I was shocked to see if this hut we were living in was the same one he had lived with his mother, he smiled and nodded.
I put down the tea, stepped out of this thatched hut, surrounded by green bamboo, the cobblestone paved road on the ground winds up, deep into the bamboo forest, go down, to the end of the hot springs, the climate of the mortal world is different from the heavenly realm, although the heavenly realm has four changes, but there is no sense of cold and warm, but the mortal world is cloudy and sunny, between cold and warm changes, let me have a sense of reality, very ingenious.
Rong He followed me and stood still in this hot spring, although this spring is small, but it is full of aura, although the Sanwei Mountain is in the mortal realm, it is indeed unattainable, and I see that in addition to the mountain we are here, there are two other peaks adjacent, both towering like clouds, Rong He said to me: "You are seriously injured and have just recovered, if you have nothing to do, you can come here to take a soak, which is beneficial to recovery." ”
The location of this hot spring is in the deepest part of the bamboo forest, surrounded by stone walls, very secret, it may be that the bamboo in these four places has hidden part of the sunlight, it is a little dark here, I have a sense of eagerness to try at the moment, it is to me said to Rong He: "I happen to be fine now, just go to the hot spring now, I have not soaked in the hot spring, I have only read in ancient books that this kind of spring can produce warm water, gather a pool, I don't want to have the effect of healing, Rong Hexian, please avoid it, I will go back by myself along those stone roads later." ”
He smiled and said, "Okay, I have prepared a change of clothes for you, put it on the edge of this pool, and come back for dinner before the sun goes down." With that, he took out a white shirt from his hand and left.
After Rong He left, I took off my outer skirt, put on only my underwear, kicked off my shoes, and stepped into this pool of water. The pool water is warm, I put it in it, I feel very comfortable, it is strange to say, I am alone here and do not feel any discomfort, but give birth to a sense of familiarity, I think I am really fate with this Sanwei Mountain, I just think that Rong He has also lived here, I feel that this place is also like my home.
I am a bird, birds are afraid of water, so I only stick to the edge of the pool and soak it below the neck, although I do not put the whole body in the water, but so, but I feel that this water nourishes people, I used to feel that my spirit is fragmented, I can not gather spiritual consciousness, in this hot spring I feel that my spiritual consciousness is gradually nourished, for a while too comfortable, so I fell asleep.
