sleep on pillow

It was the cold autumn of one year in Ganzhou City. This small town seventy miles away from Dongting Lake was shrouded in a veil of tranquility by the moonlight. Run through the grass.

This is something Gouwaer goes through every day.On this day, he quietly came back from the outside again, looked around the courtyard, and found nothing unusual: the parents who had been busy all day had already fallen asleep, and the chickens and ducks they raised were crowded in the cages and made clucking sounds from time to time.

He quietly pushed the chaimen open, and Wangcai, who was sleeping at the door, lazily raised his head and glanced at him. He hastily put his finger on his mouth, and the big yellow dog shook his ears and lowered his head knowingly to continue to sleep deeply.

Gou Wa'er tiptoedly held a wooden stake against Chai Men, and then rolled into his bed.

For Gou Wazi, a farmer, being able to sneak out every night and play in the mountains is already the happiest thing for him.

Gancheng is a small city. Compared with Zhuzhou City, which is fifty or sixty miles away, it cannot be any smaller, but although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

There is an old gentleman in the city who has been rare since ancient times, and he opened a private school, but the old gentleman thinks of himself as a grand, and it is difficult for him not to be a wealthy man, and this poor and remote village can't spare seven or eight rich people. In addition to the benevolent Li Yuan in the east of the city, there is also the penny-pinching old man in the west city. Counting these sloppy squires, he can barely make up the whole. Almost.

Speaking of which, I heard from the older generation that this old gentleman was a good student in the village when he was young. Although he didn't get an official job, he is naturally a decent person compared to ordinary people. Everyone has to bow when he sees him Call the old gentleman, this old man is also happy to listen to these flattery.

Although these students of his ended up going to the business that he despises the most to do the stinky business, he was uncharacteristically and didn't think it was rebellious.

There is also a Daoxiang Building in the city, which is the best place to go in a radius of ten miles. Gou Wa'er remembers that when he was a child, his father, Old Man Shen, would often rub his hands and say, that when Gou Wa gets married in the future, he must go to this Dao Xiang Lou A few tables were set up, and when he said this, Old Man Shen had a longing look on his face.

As for the rest of the pharmacies, the yamen is naturally available, there are also grocery stores, brothels and kilns to gamble in Saiguo, although it can't make the Huajieliu customers from outside linger, but for the local third-rate princes and traveling merchants, it is also considered. Go merry.

Seventy miles away from Gancheng is the famous Dongting Lake, and twenty miles back is Zhuzhou City, the capital of a state, and Kunzhou and Bingzhou to the north.

For Gouwazi who has never left Ganzhou City, these places that Dad occasionally mentioned are always too far away. It takes him two hours to run back and forth from the mountain. Zhuzhou City, which is more than 50 miles away, must be prepared. The roe deer meat at home will take half a month to arrive.

Lying on the bed, Gouwazi reached out his hand to touch the sackcloth on his body, and couldn't help but feel a bit of coolness. He sat up and looked, and found that the clothes on his body were already half wet.

He was going to play with his friends in the mountains this evening. He had seen a red-haired ape in the mountain stream before, his body was covered with scars, and he was lying by the water. The cave, and I still visit it from time to time.

Gouwa'er remembered someone saying that all living beings have spirituality. He thought it was quite right. Those who run in the mountains, swim in the water, and fly in the sky, if you don't hurt them, they won't necessarily hurt you. Some people with bad temperaments are really hopeless, but it's good not to make friends with them. Dad also said that people's hearts are good and bad, after all, they are much better. That's probably the case.

Zhu Yuan was weak at first, but when he woke up faintly and saw Gou Wa'er, he was very frightened.As soon as Gou Wa'er entered the cave, the big monkey hid himself.

It's just that after a long time later, Gouwazi brought him herbs and food, and never meant to harm him. Every time he came every day, he would stand and look at him from a distance, feeling timid in his heart. The mood faded for a while, and after one season passed and the weather gradually cooled down, Gou Wa'er took Zhu Yuan out of the cave, and Gou Wa'er would occasionally say small things to Zhu Yuan.

This horse and monkey also understood human nature, once they came and went, their worries were dispelled, and one person and one ape gradually became familiar with each other.

Gou Wazi lives not far from the foot of this mountain. His father, Shen Tou, earns a living by chopping firewood and digging out rare treasures. There are not many houses in the vicinity, and the land is sparsely populated. Except for the Youde of Zhang Oru's next door, there are Only the three members of the Shen family took root here.

Speaking of which, this mountain was also uploaded by the ancestors of Orion Zhang, but the Shen and Zhang families have been friends for generations, and there is no difference between the previous generation and this generation. You chop firewood and I hunt, and the two juniors run together in the mountain with their backs exposed. come and go.

So the two families live in peace, and they often walk around, but it is boring for the two children: Youde has not been in good health since he was a child, and naturally he doesn't go much in the mountains, and Gouwazi can't stay idle all day long. So he ran into the mountains, so that he could keep company with these mountain spirits and monsters.

Gouwazi was born thin and weak, but he was unexpectedly friendly with beasts.

Fortunately, although Gancheng is remote, there are no wild animals in this mountain, except for a few wild boars that come during the autumn harvest season. It is unlucky to catch up with someone, and the year's harvest will be ruined by these animals, so there are no wild animals. It's troublesome, although Gouwazi's family has a few acres of mountainous land, but the fields on the mountainous land, I am afraid that even these rough-skinned and thick-skinned strange guys will not look down on them.

For Gou Wa'er, since he met Zhu Yuan, he has an extra playmate.

Speaking of which, there are some monkey mandrills in this mountain, but they are very vicious. They will scratch and scratch everyone they meet. If you happen to be holding a fruit in your hand, he will throw you stones and dung. , you hurried to cover the door, and then a little monkey came around behind you and snatched all the things in your arms, including some bad things.

Gou Wa'er and Zhang Liehu's family looked at these hozens so angrily and funny, but they had no idea about them.

But Zhu Yuan is different, Gouwa'er has never seen such a big ape, he stands as tall as two Gouwa's, his arms are long and his waist is round, since he came to the back mountain of Gancheng, he has become like an ape in the mountains King of the Mountain.

Since he recovered from his injury, those evil things that were beaten in this mountain have been crying for their father and mother. It is strange to say that this ape is originally a beast, but his personality is very measured. Somewhat human, quite reasonable.

Ever since he made friends with Gouwaer, he often took Gouwaer to travel around the mountains and rivers.It's no coincidence, just now in the mountains, Zhu Yuan saw him running from home panting, he laughed like a human being, raised his arms and put Gou Wa'er on his shoulders, and using his supernatural power, he climbed up a nearby tree The big tree flew towards the depths of the mountain like flying, and the wind was so fast that Gou Wa'er was so frightened that he grabbed Zhu Yuan's neck tightly and did not dare to relax at all.

When Gouwa'er felt his speed slow down significantly, he tentatively opened his eyes and found himself in a place he had never been to.

Looking further ahead, a rushing waterfall was blocked in front of his eyes like a curtain of water. He stretched out his hand subconsciously, but before he could catch any truth, he felt that the Zhu Yuan under him was struggling. Before he could react in the future, Zhu Yuan plunged headlong into the water curtain, and when Gouwaer looked around again, he found that he was already behind the water curtain.

Gouwa'er never thought that there would be another cave behind the water curtain. In this cave, there was some faint fluorescent light that allowed him to discern the traces around him, but Zhu Yuan didn't intend to put Gouwa'er down.

He walked slowly in the water curtain cave.Gou Wa'er knew that Zhu Yuan had always had amazing eyesight and could see things in the dark, but Shen's boy felt that the horse monkey seemed to be looking for something in this cave, so Gou Wa'er also raised his neck to look around, but his pair of ordinary The eyes, everywhere they can see, is a dark scene, and there is nothing to gain.

He looked so bored that he couldn't help asking: "Brother Yuan'er, why did you bring me here? It's not fun to be in the dark. I'm not the same as you. I can't see anything clearly in the dark."

Zhu Yuan reached out and rubbed Gouwa'er's back, making a whining sound.

Gou Wa'er said again, "It would be very interesting to come here during the day, it's still chilly here, maybe it's much more comfortable than the big hole you live in, Brother Yuan'er!"

Zhu Yuan took two breaths.Gouwa'er is still looking around boredly. This cave is a good place to go, but this time is always a bit inappropriate. In the summer of next year, brother Yuan'er will bring him back, and he has to bring some melons and fruits to enjoy the cool summer. Wouldn't it be nice.

Gouwa'er was thinking wildly, but at the same time he was a little puzzled.Although he understands Zhu Yuan's meaning now, after all, he doesn't understand why he has to go to this place to seek guilt instead of going to this mountain to play with the animal friends he made before at night.

In his spare time, Gou Wa'er put his little head on Zhu Yuan's head, but felt that Zhu Yuan suddenly stood up straight.He looked outside through the water curtain not far away, and found that the moon was already in the sky. It seemed that Zhu Yuan also knew that it was getting late, so he petted Gouwaer again.

Gou Wa'er said, "It's a bit late now, brother Yuan'er will send us back, otherwise my father and mother will know that I slipped out to play again, and they will blow up my ass, Gou Waer."

Zhu Yuan giggled when he heard this, stretched out his hand to let Gouwaer support him, then slammed into the water curtain again, and then brought Gouwaer back to the place where they met.

Thinking of this, Gouwa'er called it unlucky. After the beginning of autumn, the weather gradually turned colder. The mountain was cooler than the plain.In the past few years, there was heavy snowfall on this mountain, and the people down the mountain were still shut up because of Qiuhu's heat.

Gouwa'er was born thin and small. Compared with Youde next door, although he is still healthy, his arms and legs are thinner than Youde's. This body has no natural resistance to the cold.The wet clothes could no longer be worn, so he had to take off his clothes in a hurry, and then hung them on the wooden pole beside the bed, hoping that the autumn wind would dry him quickly.

Thinking that the adventure at night was too bizarre, Gouwa'er fell asleep not long after taking off the sackcloth.

"Is there any guest room in the Xian couple's house? Mr. Xu wants to stay overnight and go to Linwu Mountain tomorrow."

"Where is Yetai, our small family here is very simple, if you don't dislike it and live here, it will be flourishing, but there is no good food and water in this mountain, and I don't know if Yetai can eat or not. I'm used to it, hey, I'll go to Orion's house next door to borrow a deer to make meat for Yetai."

"You don't have to be so polite, Mr. and Mrs. We Taoists don't pay much attention to what we eat. Just take the most common food from your family. The food is delicious, not to mention that we travel all over the world. , I haven’t eaten anything, so don’t bother.”

"I can't help it, you are an old fairy, how can you eat the same food as our country people, I will borrow it now."

"Then I won't refuse. Can Father Shen guide me to the guest room first? I have driven from Jingzhou for more than ten days to get here, and I haven't had a good night's sleep yet."

"Okay, okay, this way please, Grandpa."

…………

Gou Wa'er vaguely heard someone talking outside the door in his sleep.He opened his eyes slightly, the sackcloth that was wet last night had completely dried, and with the opening and closing of the chai gate, the autumn wind that poured in from the courtyard blew the clothes like a flag fluttering in the air.He rubbed his eyes, sat up straight, stretched out his hand and grabbed the dress, put it on his body hurriedly, lifted a quilt and got out of bed.

"Father, why did you use millet to cook porridge today? You haven't eaten such good food during the Chinese New Year." Gou Wa'er came out of the back room scratching his head, saw his father, Shentou, busy at the stove, and gathered together Head up to have a look.

There is a liter of millet in this small dustpan, and it has been seven years since Gouwaer was born.As long as I can remember, I have only eaten millet like this twice. The first time was when Gouwaer just turned one year old. Old Shentou ran more than ten miles to Gancheng to find Li Yuanwai from the east of the city, and took a good mountain Jane exchanged so much millet for two taels. Speaking of which, Li Yuanwai is a well-known benevolent person in all directions, and seeing the hard work of this old Shentou, I gave him a tael more.

Old Shentou is also a simple person in the countryside, so he is grateful for this, and every year during the holidays, he will go to the city to visit Li Yuanwai and send some wild game.But Mr. Li is a very nice outsider, but those family servants are arrogant, but this old Shentou doesn't care, he has a good temper, he can't be a villain and can't blush with others.

Another time when Gouwaer was playing in the yard, the tiles on the roof suddenly poured down and hit Gouwaer on the ground. At that time, he broke his head and bled. The family has been passed down from generation to generation, and the old Shentou also got a son when he was old, and he doted on this son very much. At that time, the old Shentou was like an ant on a hot pot.

Called Zhang Liehu, who just came back from the next door, and drove the dog for more than ten miles on the mountain road, and sent it to the best pharmacy in Gancheng (although this is the only pharmacy in Gancheng). The barefoot doctor stretched out his head to have a look, hey, it's just some skin trauma, but this son of a bitch was crying like a big grievance.

This barefoot doctor didn't know whether it was because of bed troubles last night, or because he stepped on dog shit in the morning, his temper was extremely bad, and he was so angry that he raised his hand to give the little boy a chestnut on the spot where the head was not bleeding. It did have a miraculous effect, the dog stopped crying immediately, and just kept twitching non-stop, the doctor saw that the dog stopped crying, so he prescribed medicine, and asked old Shen to buy some delicious food Coax the children.

Old Shentou immediately poured another two or two taels of millet. He had no money, so he bought half a jacket with Zhang Orion on credit, and the father and father went back to the mountain overnight.

Gouwazi thought about the millet porridge he drank in those years, it tasted really good.

Smooth and tender, it is hundreds of times more delicious than the highland barley noodles at home, but there is another strange thing, this millet porridge always needs to be eaten, which makes young Gouwazi very puzzled, but fortunately, the number of times it is eaten is different. many.Otherwise, this little boy will doubt whether this millet has the effect of laxative.

"There's a distinguished guest at home. I can't save this rice. I borrowed some from you, Uncle Zhang, and I have to return it the next day. Don't steal it, kid." Old Shentou said to him while he was busy. Said Gouwaer, who was stretching out his little paw to the millet porridge.

"Hey, it's not unusual for me to eat. Dad, who is here? You are so nervous. When I was just sleeping, I heard you say that I want to borrow a mule from Uncle Zhang." Wa'er withdrew her hand resentfully, and asked boredly.

"Hey, it's an old fairy. I heard it came from a mountain far away."

"Isn't it as high as the mountain behind us?"

"Bah, bah, how can it be compared, but it's too high. I really have to say, it's about the same height as the forest house mountain on the other side of the lake. I heard from your Uncle Zhang that he has been to the forest house mountain. The deer and the rabbit are very fat, when he and his old man went there, there were also immortals on the mountain, and they were not allowed to hunt, seeing how difficult it was for them to go up the mountain, we gave them money to go back to our place."

"This fairy is still in charge of the money. Does our old fairy give money?" Gou Wa'er scratched his head and asked.

"Qianqianqian, how do you know about money, you kid? Do you know how Li Yuanwai in our city made his fortune in the past? It was Li Yuanwai's father's generation. When he was going to Linwushan, an old fairy passed by. They found a place to live in their family. Before leaving, I pointed out a way for his family to be a rice merchant, and his family gradually became rich. Li Yuanwai’s previous generation lived naked like your grandfather and Zhang Orion’s father. Running around the city."

Gouwazi shook his head noncommittally.Thinking that he hadn't seen this fairy yet, he ran to the inner room to take a look, it was the fairy in his father's mouth.

The fairy was dressed in kudzu clothes and was lying on the bed, with a big bamboo hat hanging on the wooden pole beside the bed. The old fairy had a big beard, not as dirty and messy as Gouwaer's father. , this beard is thick and dense and really good-looking, like a bearded man in the mouth of a storyteller at the street, like a bearded man.A pair of sword-shaped eyebrows are not angry and majestic, even when he is asleep, his expression is still radiant, but only these eyebrows have the spirit of an old fairy.

But Gouwa'er felt worried again, the old gods who went to Gancheng to listen to the books during the Chinese New Year, weren't they all old with white eyebrows and white hair?How does this look like a military general from the previous dynasty, not like a fairy but like a knight.

If we really want to talk about gods and men, isn't this red ape in the mountain more like a god than this bearded bearded man.Gou Wa'er looked bored, so he lowered the khaki curtain, and quietly retracted his head.He was also bored waiting at home, so he told old Shentou and hurried to the foot of the mountain to find Youde to play.

The author has something to say:

I'm new here, so please bear with me.

It’s the first time I write on the Internet, and I feel a lot of emotion. I have been exposed to online novels for about ten years. From reading pirated posts when I was a student, to this age, I have gradually given up reading online novels.

Probably because of so many contacts, I couldn't help but have the idea of ​​"writing and reading by myself".So I picked up the pen and wrote down the wild thoughts in my heart, and then I had such a beginning.

This protagonist is probably a little different, different from those who can overwhelm the five mountains, or fly swords and thunderbolts, this novel does not have too many descriptions in this regard.The protagonist is a farm boy who comes into contact with traffickers and pawns. Every family has its own difficulties and happiness.

The people and things in the book are all the scenes that I want to describe the world in my heart. I don’t want to, this is a world without popularity, and there are more men and women with fireworks, and I don’t want only those people in twos and threes to appear on the pages of the book. .

As the introduction said, ten feet of the world of mortals stumbled.If you can remember the name of a passer-by in that small town, I will also feel very happy.

Finally, I wish you a happy reading.
