Chapter 2 Chaos Meets Fairies
"The north wind swept the white grass and folded, and the snow flew in August. Suddenly, like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloom.
Scattered into the bead curtain wet curtain, the fox fur is not warm and thin. The general's horn bow is uncontrollable, and it is difficult to protect the iron clothes.
The sea is dry and icy, and the gloomy clouds are bleak and condensed. The Chinese army returned with wine and drinks, Huqin pipa and Qiang flute.
The snow is falling in the twilight, and the wind and red flags are not overturned. Luntai East Gate sent Jun to go, and when he went, the snow was full of Tianshan Road.
The mountain loop turns around, and the snow leaves a place for horses. ”
This poem "Bai Xue Ge Sends the Military Judge Back to Beijing" is a poem by the ancient poet Qin Shen who sent his friends back to Beijing. The poem depicts the magnificent scenery of the northwest border of the motherland, as well as the lively scene of the border military camp sending off the envoys returning to Beijing, expressing the feelings of sorrow and homesickness.
In the mainland of China, Zhongzhou, and in the northwest frontier, there is a small town called Luohuachun Town.
On this day, it was already evening, ushered in the most severe day in Zhongzhou, at this time it was the first day of the first month, the weather was cold, the snow was cold, and the eaves of the streets were covered with a thick layer of snow.
To the west of Luohuachun Town, there is a small church that has fallen into decay, this church looks very old, the mud walls are crumbling, and the body is full of cracks and holes, and it looks very fragile. There is a hole the size of a washbasin in the roof, and the cold wind of snowflakes pours into it. Even so, I listened to Lang Lang's poetry through the church.
I saw an old man, holding a dilapidated poetry book in one hand and carrying it behind him with the other, pacing back and forth on the two rows of aisles, reading the poem "Bai Xue Ge Sends the Military Judge Back to Beijing".
Below, there were two rows of young men and women, about twenty or thirty people, these teenagers were not very old, the oldest was only thirteen or fourteen years old. The young men and women followed the rhythm of the old man's poetry, and their heads swayed and recited, which looked like a reader.
At the end, the old man paused and said: "I have been studying this poem with you for two days, and before the lecture, I asked that you should study it by yourself at home in advance, and now you will be tested to teach your memorization ability, as today's homework, prepare a book, and start writing this ancient poem silently." As soon as the old man finished speaking, there was a slight roar in the church.
I guess Mr. won't assign homework today, he's just playing for the past two days, and he hasn't memorized this poem yet!"
"Hey, are you familiar with me, I'll copy some later. ”
"Oh, no, I'm going to write it today!"
"Oh no, I'm going to copy this psalm fifty times again......"
A little girl with two pigtails on her head raised her hand and said, "Sir, can you write again tomorrow? ”
When the old man heard this, he shook his head and said, "No, there are no rules, there is no circle." Rules are rules, if you don't prepare early, how can you cope with the imperial examination in four years?" He glanced at the group of students and said earnestly: "Don't you want to change your fate? Don't you want to live a prosperous life? Then work hard, like Lord Han, if you can get a show of talent, raise people, have fame, and return to the township, it will add glory to your ancestors and shine!"
The little girl flashed her big black eyes and said, "But ......" seemed to want to speak, and a simple young man gently pulled her sleeve and said softly: "Shhhhh When the little girl heard this, her mouth pursed, and she looked unwilling and aggrieved, and she reluctantly closed her mouth.
The old man said, "Xie Yingwu, you put away all the textbooks!"
The young man named Xie Yingwu was older, with a burly figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a scar on his face that resembled a beast's claw. He reluctantly accepted the textbook and put it on the podium, which was the rule of the old man, and whenever he wrote silently, he had to hand in the textbook to prevent students from cheating.
Behind the church house, I saw a filthy, bony little hand, grasping a dead branch, and quickly drawing something on the snow.
It was a little flower about seven or eight years old, wearing a tattered, very greasy raged beast suit, and his body was very thin and thin, as if a gust of wind could blow him down. He squatted on the snow, and it turned out that he was writing the poem "Bai Xue Ge Sends the Military Judge Back to Beijing". Seeing a cup of tea, the little beggar stopped.
It turned out that he had already finished writing the last word, and he saw that the handwriting was neat, and there was no sign of error or omission in the handwriting. As early as when the old man said that he wanted to write this poem silently, he had already started to write, and he wrote it very quickly.
The little beggar stood up, let out a long breath, and said in his heart: "It has taken me three months to hear the shouts of traders and passers-by every day in this Luohua village and town, and I have seen people in shape* under the green building, and today I write the poems of the ancients behind the church house. Uncle White Wolf, I have learned to speak and write the Terran language. "This little beggar is the boy adopted by the white wolf.
The young man raised his head, looked at the faint green jungle in the distance, missed the white wolf very much in his heart, was out of his mind, caught a glimpse of a green rainbow across the sky out of the corner of his eye, was surprised, and then raised his eyes to look, but saw that the twilight was heavy, and a few red-burning clouds appeared in the sky, but where was there anyone? He thought that he was dazzled, and he was not a fairy descending to earth, because the fairy only exists in the mythical stories in the book.
He laughed at himself like this, but he couldn't help but feel a beat in his heart, and secretly thought: "At this time, the weather is very cold, and I have never seen such an illusion in the past, not to mention the gods, even the birds are not easy to see, could it be said that this is the Terran monk that Uncle White Wolf said? Look at the passing direction, it is the center of the street." Thinking about it like this, I can't help but thump in my heart, I have been in Luohua Village and Town for three months, and I have never heard anyone talk about the Terran monks, which can't help but make him a little distressed, if the Terran monks become a secret existence, and how can he look for them? If he can't find them, how can he learn the magic, if he can't learn the magic, he can't go to Leizhou, let alone find out the whereabouts of his parents.
Driven by curiosity, he braved the cold wind and snow and slowly walked towards the market in the center of the town. Before I entered the center, I saw that the people who were rushing to the market had evacuated in a hurry, and some vendors had already brought the goods they were selling to their doors, hurriedly banged on the door, and shouted: "Mother-in-law, open the door quickly, quickly, quickly!"
Some families, old and young, rushed to the young man's side with their families, and the whole town lost its former hustle and bustle, and there was a sign of panic.
The boy naturally felt the atmosphere of panic, he hesitated, wondering whether to continue walking, at this time he was close to the edge of the center of the street, and then turned the alley to hit the center, but the closer he got to the center of the market, the more he felt a depressed, depressed, and tense breath that made him unconsciously want to pull his legs and turn around and flee from here.
At this moment, a deep voice echoed in the young man's ears, like spring thunder in his ears: "Listen to the people of the town, I am the captain of Sulu County, Zhongzhou of Qi Kingdom, and the water monsters in the Tiantuo River come out to make trouble, and wait for the civilians to leave the town quickly and move ten miles eastward, and wait for our army to calm down the water monsters, and then return again." ”
The young man was shocked into a cold sweat, a month ago, he was fortunate to witness a water monster invasion of the town, those water monsters have green teeth and fangs, terrifying and hideous, see human beings will bite and fight, ordinary knives, axes and steel forks can not do anything, fortunately, the county magistrate of Sulu County has already sent someone to report to Huachun Town, and sent troops in time to strangle the water monsters, but these water monsters are all extraordinary, not to mention the infinite power, and will also attract water to make trouble, and some water monsters will spit ice and frost.
Fortunately, the army soldiers in Sulu County are also extraordinary, all of them are strong and strong, and they are extraordinary, and the tricks in the face of the water monster are resolved one by one, just like martial arts people, fists and feet and swords are used together, and the fight is very fierce and shocking. In this battle, at the cost of heavy casualties, all the water monsters were exterminated, in exchange for the safety of Luohuachun Town.
It's just unexpected that it's only been how long it has been, the water monster has come to make trouble again, the last time the water monster was destroyed and the loss of wealth is still recovering, and the water monster is making trouble again, it is foreseeable how long it will take for the village and town to recover its vitality?
Luohuachun Town was in chaos at this time, and the sound of crying fathers and mothers could be heard all the way, and ordinary people from all walks of life rushed to tell each other, pulling pigs, dragging small families, roosters and dogs barking, and they got rid of the chaos of the apocalypse.
At this time, the center of the town was empty except for the teenager, not that the teenager did not want to leave, but that the oppressive and unsettling atmosphere became more and more intense, which made people breathless. The young man involuntarily slumped and sat down on the ground, gasping for breath, and the drops of water on his forehead slipped down drop by drop, as if this moment was very grinding.
At this time, a sudden shout came: "Obediently hand over the things, so that you will not die!" The young man couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat, and he looked around, but he didn't see anyone, but it was the captain of Sulu County who heard this voice.
After a while, he heard a hoarse old voice say: "I didn't expect you to come to the door, okay, this is for you!" The young man was very familiar with this voice, this was not the old man Li who shouted every day, who was the old man Li who sold steamed buns? The young man was very puzzled in his heart, didn't he say that the water monster was coming? How could he listen to this tone as if he had come to arrest the prisoner and find something.
The lieutenant suddenly said angrily: "At this moment, I still entertain the uncle!" I only heard the sound of "pop", like the sound of tables and chairs splitting. The captain seemed to be very annoyed, and said loudly: "This is the territory of Qi State, have you not considered the revenge of the Jiang family when you wield your sword?" The implication was to threaten and deter other people with evil intentions.
The young man felt relieved at this time, and the feeling of depression suddenly disappeared without a trace. He was very strange in his heart, it was not a water monster, it must be something big happening, he was bold, tiptoed through the alley, lying on the wall, slowly stretched out his head to probe, and was stunned for a moment.
I saw that the bazaar, which was usually very lively with shouting and trading, gathered forty or fifty people, these people were in different camps, some were more than a dozen people standing together, some were only a few people, but the most belonged to the army of Qi State.
The young man looked at it, but saw a wonderful green figure in the crowd, which was imprinted in his eyes, and saw that his face was elegant and vulgar, beautiful and incoherent, and his whole body was full of smart fairy energy. The temperament of not eating the fireworks in the world, like a fairy descending to earth, is so beautiful that it is moving, at the first glance, I can't help but look at the second look, and when I look at the second look, I can't help but look at the third look, and I can't take my eyes off it.
The boy grew up in the forest since he was a child, and although he has seen many women in the past three months, he has seen her so stunning, and his heart is pounding, and he has now determined that he is behind the church house and sees the green rainbow flying from the sky, which is undoubtedly this fairy sister. He retracted into the corner and sat down, now he was still a seven-year-old boy, and he didn't know anything about men and women, Rao was like this, and at this moment he was also blushing and heartbeat, and his cheeks were burning badly.
The captain said in a deep voice: "Old man Li, I will say one last word, hand over the things, but spare your life!"
One of the people in the crowd snorted and said, "Ouch! When did this Qi country become so capable, and he didn't take other people in his eyes, this thing has a share, and my Huashan Sect can't say that I have to take a kick." ”
