Chapter One Hundred and Four: The Dream of the Poppy

readx; Unknowingly, Yu Qing fell asleep leaning on the carriage. In the dream of pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info carriage seemed to be pulled by the divine bird, and suddenly returned to Longquan Villa. Yu Qing remembered that he hadn't been back to Longquan Villa for two years, but now, when he went back, he found that everything in the villa seemed to be the same as before. The brothers are still practicing swords in the martial arts training ground, their father is still forging swords day and night, and their mothers are still silently accompanying them. The picture suddenly turned, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed, and the father and mother who were originally forging swords suddenly became a senior brother in white. Yu Qing didn't react yet, but he saw that Senior Brother Shen Bi was already smiling, and walked over, he stretched out his hand, gently pinched Yu Qing's nose, and scolded, "You dead girl, why didn't you come back to see me for so long, I thought you were dead." Yu Qing's face flushed, and she was about to explain, but she saw Senior Brother Shenbi take a few steps closer, took her hand and said, "After you left, I planted a lot of poppies in Longquan Villa, and now they are all blooming, and they are all flourishing, but it looks good, and you came back in time." Yu Qing was about to ask what a poppy was, but he heard someone shout, "Miss Yu Qing, Miss Yu Qing." ”

Yu Qingmeng opened his eyes and saw that there was chaos and blur in the carriage. I don't know how long I slept, Yu Qing was in a daze, and heard Brother Li outside shouting, "Miss Yu Qing, wake up." ”

Yu Qing suddenly found that it was Brother Li who called him, not Senior Brother Shenbi, so he couldn't help but blush, lifted the curtain and asked, "Brother Li, what's wrong?"

The eldest brother surnamed Li smiled awkwardly and said, "I just read the wrong map, we are still more than a hundred miles away from Jingzhou, and today, we can't get there anyway." ”

Yu Qing exclaimed, "What should I do then?"

Brother Li smiled awkwardly, silently, and Xuan Che's weak but clear voice came from the carriage, "Since this is the case, let's find a place to rest today, and then continue to rush tomorrow, we are tired from lying in this carriage for a day." ”

Yu Qing looked up at the sky and knew that it really couldn't be there now, so she sighed, "Then listen to her." ”

Then Brother Li said happily, "This is the best, I saw an inn just now, although it is not very good, but in this wilderness, it is also very good, why don't I go back again, where do we rest for one night?"

Yu Qing nodded, "It's okay, I'm not familiar with it here, so it's up to you." Yu Qing turned around and saw that the eldest princess had also woken up, and said softly, "When did you wake up?"

A slight smile crossed the corner of Xuan Che's mouth, and he said lightly, "I've woken up since you called Senior Brother Shenbi." ”

When Yu Qing heard her mention the word "sinking wall", her face brushed again, and she was so red that she didn't expect that she had unconsciously called out his name, she subconsciously wanted to deny it, but she didn't know how to deny it, so her face was flushed. Seeing that she was so embarrassed, Xuan Che also showed a slight smile on his face, and said lightly, "You help me sit up, I have been lying down for a day, and my back hurts." ”

Yu Qing hurriedly walked to the eldest princess, stretched out her hand and carefully helped her up, at the moment when the eldest princess got up, she suddenly smelled the faint fragrance of lotus flowers on the eldest princess, Yu Qing was stunned for a moment, and asked, "How can the eldest princess have the fragrance of lotus flowers?"

Xuan Che was also stunned, she lowered her head and sniffed carefully, and said, "Why didn't I smell it?"

Yu Qing said: "That may be that I smelled it wrong." After a pause, he said, "Does the eldest princess know what a poppy is?"

Xuan Che pondered for a moment, and said lightly, "The origin of the opium poppy is the Western Regions, and as early as the Xi Dynasty, it was introduced to Middle Earth and planted. In this regard, Mr. Deng Zhicheng researched: "Cold Fasting Night Talk" quoted Tao Hongjing's "Immortal Notes" and said: The broken intestine grass is unknowable. Its flowers are beautiful, and the name is hibiscus flowers. Therefore, Taibai's poem said: "In the past, it was a hibiscus flower, but now it is a broken intestine grass." How long can you get good things for others? "According to the broken intestine grass, it refers to the poppy flower, and it is known that it has flowed into China for a long time, and the cover is far away at the time of the Six Dynasties. The four lines of the poem engraved by Zeng Taibai are small seals. In the "Collection of Materia Medica", it is recorded that the poppy flower has four leaves, red and white, with a light red halo on it, and its sac shape is like an arrow, and there is fine rice in it. Another record says, "The warbler corn flower is red, the thousand leaves are clustered, the flowers are very huge and dense, and the abundance does not reduce the elixir." ”

Yu Qing pondered: "In other words, this is a beautiful and enchanting flower from the Western Regions?"

Hyun Cheol didn't know why she suddenly asked about poppies, but she patiently explained, "Poppies are not a good symbol, poppies represent a temptation that can lead to destruction." It means that the temptation of this kind of beauty is extremely powerful, so strong that many people are willing to accept this kind of destruction to accept this temptation, symbolizing a self-destructive pursuit of beauty. But in the legends of some places, there is also a good side. It is said that this flower has such a poignant story. According to legend, once upon a time, there was a small village of more than a dozen families in the Gushan Pass, and there was a handsome young man in the village, ranked third, and people called him San Lang. San Lang has been very good with a girl named Yingshu since he was a child, a childhood sweetheart, and the two have no guesses, and they are very compatible. San Lang plays the piano well, and the young lady is smart and clever, and she especially likes to listen to the piano, as long as she listens to the sound of San Lang's piano, she is drunk and obsessed. When she was seventeen or eighteen years old, San Lang and Ying Shu had a private engagement for life, Ying Shu Fei Jun would not marry, and San Lang Fei Qing would not marry.

One day, the matchmaker came to Yingshu's house to propose marriage, talking about a rich family in a neighboring village. Young-sook's father was greedy for money and agreed in one go. Miss Ying swore to death when she found out. The matchmaker ran in a hurry, and came home twice in three days to ask questions, and Yingshu's parents were very strict in their care, forcing each other tightly. Seeing that the wedding date was approaching, on a dark night, Yingshu took advantage of the family's unpreparedness and hanged herself on a rope on a tree in the courtyard. Young-sook's father regretted it so much that he had to bury his short-lived daughter on a mountain ground.

When Saburo heard the news of Young-sook's death, he was very sad. He lay on his stomach in front of Young-sook's grave and beat his chest, crying until he died. With tears in his eyes, he suddenly saw a flower popping out of the ground on the new grave. The red flowers and green leaves, the watery and watery, pink flowers exude an alluring fragrance. Saburo carefully dug up the flower, took it home, planted it in a pot, and put it in the study. Every night I don't go out, I play the piano to the flowers, and I miss Yingshu. Days go on, every night. One night, as soon as Saburo's piano sounded, I saw Miss Ying coming down from the flowers, and the study was immediately filled with laughter. In the dead of night, Yingshu and Saburo are still making love, pouring out their thoughts of life and death to each other. When Hyun Che said this, he suddenly stopped, smiled and asked, "Guess what happened?"
