sleep on pillow

Since the founding of the country, although the dynasty has been in turmoil, with warlords inside and foreign tribes eyeing the fertile land of the Central Plains, the current emperor is trying his best to recuperate, clean up the internal strife, and even send cavalry to guard the northern border.

Shengsheng pulled this world out of the mud of troubled times, but whether it was the raging wars or the open and secret fights in the court, this small remote town was as peaceful and stable as ever.

And after this troubled world, in a somewhat peaceful environment, no matter whether it is a high-ranking official or a country gentleman with a little status, they all like this kind of talk.You must know that this dynasty most respected the teachings of Lao Zhuang and Zhuangzi. Although the Buddhist teachings poured into the Central Plains, those Li people most liked the idea of ​​Buddha and Bodhisattva saving all living beings. Suddenly, the whole country was full of monks, nuns and bhikkhus.

But in contrast, the scholar-bureaucrat class joined Taoism one after another.With the support of the imperial court and officials, a large number of Taoist priests also stepped onto the stage from the folk.

Not to mention the Tianshijiao, which has long been famous in the previous dynasty, this dynasty also has the Lingxu Palace far away in Xiqiao Mountain, where there is Jingzi, who has profound magic power and superb Taoism, and his teaching staff is good at deploying 72 celestial gangs. There are a large number of spiritual treasures and talismans hidden in the palace, and since the founding of the sect, it is convenient for the thatched cottage to make friends with each other, and they have always been the vanguards against the Shi family in the court.

This Jingzi is even known as a national teacher in Da Nei, and Master Hongyi of Xilin Temple, inheriting the two giants in the world of Taoism.

However, since Zhang Tianshi moved the main altar to Heming Mountain, there has been a split among the sects. Some of the elders felt that they should be inclusive and inclusive, so they set up another mountain and called themselves Tianshijiao.

He is good at exorcising ghosts and making talismans, and he is also good at the art of throwing beans to form soldiers. He also practices the orthodox heart method of Xuanmen. His disciples are all over the world. .

In contrast, the ancestral court of Tianshizong in Longhushan has always only recruited rich children with excellent wisdom roots. The energy in it, but it can also be regarded as a core force.

He inherited Zhang Tianshi's position, mediating the dispute between the Pope and the Pope; he must intervene in Taoist disasters, and he has the right to be arbitrary, and the First Division of the Qin Tianjian in the court is even more monopolized by him.

Compared with these sects that either have a large number of people or have a long history, there are also existences such as Juqu Mountain Huayangtian and Danxia Mountain Judicial Sect.

For example, the Shangqing Sect on Linwu Mountain by the Dongting Lake is one example. Its number is not large. The whole sect counts handymen, and there are a total of 87 members. During this period, the disciples were all outstanding, but several old masters are well-known in this Taoist circle. title.And because of the small number of people, these medium-sized sects are more strict in the selection of disciples, but they don't pay much attention to background.

As for the method of cultivation, it also pays attention to being out of the world, and is often hidden in the deep mountains, except for the Danyuan Conference held every four years, and when it is necessary, it just comes out of the cave to travel the rivers and lakes.

There are all kinds of small sects underneath. The smallest sect has only two masters and apprentices. If you find a volume of heavenly scriptures left by the immortals, you can establish a sect with a few spells.

Of course, there are some sects established by swindlers who dress up as divination masters and walk in various temples and streets on weekdays, interpreting dreams and warding off disasters, and collecting some innocuous money.And often the common people still believe in these wandering Taoists, and the common people, from the court to the court, seem to be shrouded in an atmosphere of Taoism, which is quite a bit like the pre-Qin period.

The bearded man didn't come back until early in the morning, when the sun had already risen, and the moon gradually disappeared into the sky as the sun rose.The bearded man didn't go to catch up on sleep once he came back.

He didn't sleep all night, but this man looked even more energetic. This man was taking care of things. The dog boy was probably too excited. Today he woke up unexpectedly early. He just stepped into the courtyard and saw the bearded man. In three steps at a time, he ran to the man who changed clothes in the vestibule and said, "Yetai, Yetai, do you know how to heal illnesses? I want to ask you a favor, old man, don't refuse."

Gou Wa scratched his head and seemed a little embarrassed, seeing the bearded man raised his head and looked at him in surprise, "I know you immortals are the most kind-hearted, this is a great kind deed, you shouldn't refuse it?" Gou Wa He added another sentence, emboldened himself.

The bearded man smiled: "Boy from the Shen family, you have put your top hat on. I, Xu, can't do it if I say 'no' all at once. Tell me what it is first, and I'll see if I can do it as soon as possible." A little effort is not a loss to Father Shen's meal of millet porridge and those mussel meat."

"Yetai, I have a friend who is a child. He has been in poor health since he was a child. He has no strength since he was born. He often faints for no reason. Daxian, see if you can go and see. If it can be cured, their muntjac You can eat the meat as you please, you won’t be able to finish it for a few months!” Gouwa’er chuckled, and the bearded man was very funny when he saw his mischievous eyebrows, so he raised his hand and knocked a chestnut on him.

"Hey you kid, you still think that Xu Mou and I are greedy for a few pieces of mussel meat, but since you said that coming and going is always a chance, then it doesn't matter to go and have a look, wait for me to wipe my face, and you will Just take me there." The bearded man laughed and cursed.

Gouwa'er raised his hand and touched the top of the knocked head.

He was still hesitating just now, but when he heard this, he acted cleverly, hurriedly picked up the piece of cloth and wrung out the water in it, and handed it to the bearded guest. The bearded man looked funny, but he still took the towel and put it on his face After a few rough picks, he followed Gou Wa'er to Youde's home.

Just talking about this piece of Orion, I heard Gouwaer crying and howling outside the door early in the morning, and kept knocking on the door. The warmth of sleeping with the mother-in-law just now was thrown away, so I had to put it on in a hurry A sackcloth, closed the door and came to the front door.

When he opened the door, he saw a big man of about seven feet, with a full chin and a pair of sharp sword eyebrows.

On the contrary, Gouwaer did not regard himself as an outsider, and waved in front of Zhang Orion and said, "Daddy Zhang, I brought the old fairy here for Youde, please let Youde come out, and let the old fairy look at his body."

But the Orion didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and he didn't respond until he heard that his son's illness seemed to be cured. He quickly let the one big and one small into the house, and at the same time called the frail and sick son to come out to meet the guests. .

When Youde came out of the house, he saw the bearded man.Compared to his father's bewildered, this sickly young man was a bit calmer. Under Gou Wa'er's greeting, You De sat down in a serious manner opposite the bearded man.

"Father Zhang, Youde, this is the old fairy who stayed at my house yesterday. The old fairy is very good at Taoism. I think Youde's illness has not improved after taking medicine for so many years, so I invited the old fairy. It might be of some help for the gods to visit Youde before he leaves!" Gou Wa'er proudly said to Zhang Orion and his son.

The bearded man in this room continued: "Mr. Xu's invitation by the Shen family boy is also intended to exert a little force, let alone some gods are good and gods are short."

"I am a cultivator at the foot of Heming Mountain. Although I don't have any great skills, I am still somewhat sure about these minor illnesses. Father Zhang, I look at your son's face, and it seems that he has lacked energy and blood since he was a child, so he has been weak and sick all the time. Is it true? Is there a matter?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Liehu hurriedly replied: "Responding to the words of the elder, my son has also seen many doctors, and they all said that he was born with a lack of blood energy, and medicine stones can't cure it at all. Son!"

As he said that, he wanted to change his dullness just now, as if he was about to cry.

The bearded man smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll write a prescription for Xu Mou, Mr. Zhang, take the medicine according to this prescription, give your son a drink for a year, and drink my nine talisman water, wait until After a year, you will be no different from ordinary people."

As he said that, the bearded man immediately took out a few yellow talismans from his pocket, and then took out a pen and paper from his pocket, and wrote down the prescription.Then he handed all these to Zhang Orion.

Looking back at Gou Wa'er, he said; ""Brother Shen, see if you are satisfied with my approach. " Gou Wa'er didn't know how to speak well, so he nodded repeatedly.

Hearing that his son's chronic illness might be cured, Zhang Liehu hugged Youde and Gouwaer, tears streaming down his face.

And the bearded man laughed and stood up, ignoring the three of them hugging each other excitedly.

In the morning, on the mountain behind Ganzhou City, there was a light rain, and the rain slowly fell from the sky.

The old Shentou repeatedly stopped the bearded guest, letting him stay until the long-lost autumn rain passed before leaving.And the bearded man just smiled, put the big bamboo hat on his head, pressed down the brim of the hat, took a small step, and his body had already walked dozens of steps away, Gou Wa'er hid behind the chai gate, but faintly heard In the sound of wind and thunder, the passer-by in Dongting recited poems aloud.

"The white horse is decorated with gold, and gallops north and west. Ask who is the son, and you are a knight-errant. When you are young, you go to the town, and you hang your voice in the desert. In the past, you used a good bow, and the arrows are different..." The long voice gradually faded Far, just like this storm comes and goes quickly.

Old Shentou patted Gou Wa'er on the shoulder and beckoned him to close the chai gate.

Like a comet, this bearded man disappeared from the young man's life.Only he can read the poems, Gouwa'er thinks of it many years later, and he can't help himself.

Gouwa'er was lying on the bed, performing that move over and over again in his mind, but he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, wishing to play a trick right away, he really couldn't fall asleep, Gouwaer So he grabbed his sackcloth and sneaked out of the yard in the afternoon, heading straight to the back hill of Gancheng.

The boy first went to the cave where Zhu Yuan was. Except for a few more ancient books, it was the same as when the boy first discovered it.The boulders in the cave were covered with hay, and some pitchforks and shovels were placed near the entrance. Not far from the entrance, a hole the size of an abbot was dug, and a small fire was lit at night for light. In autumn and winter, It can also be used for heating.

Gou Wa'er arrived in the cave, but found that Zhu Yuan was not there, and the bonfire had been extinguished for a long time, Gou Wa'er was bored flipping through the books on the ground.

But I can't understand the words on it, I just feel that the materials of these books are older than those I read in the city before, but it seems that the printing is more particular.

Gouwa'er turned every book upside down, and there were no pictures between the pages, so he simply walked out of the cave.On the flat ground in front of him, he played two sets of exercises for body forging.

Not far away in Pingli, the deer and hedgehog playing with Gouwaer and Zhu Yuan also squeezed aside, as if they were cheering and cheering for Gouwaer, he performed this set of boxing twice with one punch and one kick .

When he finished his work, he realized that he was already dripping with sweat. The boy sat on the ground and said to Lu'er who was not far away: "Lu'er, Lu'er, can you see my brother Yuan'er?" It's because he can't understand human language, and he just stands there stupidly.

Gouwa'er looked funny, so he picked up a branch that had fallen to the ground from the grass, and threw it over with all his strength, thinking that he could hit it right, but the deer kicked the branch to the ground ahead of time. On one side, he kicked his legs very angrily immediately after, causing Gouwaer to be stunned for a while.

Gaining some strength, the boy took off his clothes and stepped into the creek.The children of the peasant family are not good at reading, but they can't be more proficient in the business of planting trees and water.

Naturally, Gouwa does not forget to catch some fish when he goes into the water. The fish in this season are full of food and drink. What they drink is the sweet-scented osmanthus brewed on the tree, and what they eat is the fragrance of flowers falling on the ground. inside.

So not only did he grow fat and strong, but he was also foolish and foolish. Gouwaer caught a few of them and gave them to the lynx who had been watching the wind from the tree. The fish scales were worn on the branches, and then Gouwa'er dug a trench, took flint and lit a small fire, put the fish skewers on the fire and cooked them on a low fire.

And I dived back to the bottom of the water and continued to swim leisurely. With the advent of autumn, the weather has become cooler day by day. If you don't swim hard in the water in this stream, there will naturally be a trace of coolness seeping into your heart along your internal organs.

When Gouwa'er was tired from swimming, he went ashore, shook some water casually, and stood by the fire to dry the water stains on his body.The boy picked up the grilled fish, took out a slice from the whole hot fish with two fingers, and put it in his mouth with a savory aroma.

Gou Wa'er confirmed that the fish was ripe, raised his hand and wanted to call Zhu Yuan to eat with him, but everything was silent and no one answered. The boy looked around, but found that Zhu Yuan hadn't come back yet.

Speaking of these days, Gou Wa'er has long been used to Zhu Yuan's company, even though this stupid big man can't speak, he has already regarded this big monkey as a friend.

Otherwise, even a meddling and curious dog boy would not take the risk of being discovered by the evil god, the bearded man, to make sure his friend is okay.Now that Zhu Yuan has never appeared, it naturally gave him a bad premonition.

You must know that Zhu Yuan is not a local creature, Gou Wa'er already knew it early on.

Gein Zhang Orion has long asserted that among the poor mountains, the wild boars in the deep mountains are the biggest. Zhang Orion's family has dealt with these wild beasts for generations, so they are very familiar with this back mountain.

Gou Wa'er found that Zhu Yuan was at the pass of the back mountain, and the wounded Zhu Yuan was lying in the middle of the road. Although it was a road, half of it was covered by weeds.

There have never been many people walking this road, except for the two families in the back hill of Ganzhou City, even the romantic sons in the city are too tired to come here.

Gouwaer ran up the mountain almost every day when the summer season first arrived. At that time, Youde was so ill that he could barely see the light. Gouwaer went to visit Zhang Orion’s house every day, but he went every day. Can't see any improvement.

The boy was worried about the safety of his friend, and often went up the mountain to find some medicinal materials.I think those reviews always hide some thousand-year-old ginseng and century-old Ganoderma lucidum in those deep mountains and old forests. These rare treasures of heaven and earth often have the effect of bringing the dead back to life.

It just so happened that when going up the mountain that day, Gou Wa'er, who was in a hurry, tripped over Zhu Yuan lying in the middle of the road.And when the boy saw Zhu Yuan for the first time, he was really taken aback. This strange ape, covered in injuries and dripping with blood, just fell here like this, and he just happened to meet the boy. I don't know how many times I have been skinned and boned.

And this Zhu Yuan finally opened his eyes, and looked at the boy who had kicked him for no reason for a while.And it was this staring that made Gouwa'er see that this big, stupid man covered in injuries didn't want to end his life. The boy saw a wave of resentment beating in his eyes, and he didn't know where it came from. With courage, Gou Wa'er found two pieces of wood, wrapped his belt around it again and again, and made a simple climbing frame, and then pushed Zhu Yuan onto the frame with a lot of effort.

Regardless of the blood and dust on his body, the young man dragged Zhu Yuan to the cave where he had played on the mountain before and took temporary refuge when it rained heavily in the mountains.

And in this cave, there are also a lot of herbs collected by Gouwaer for Youde. Although they are not expensive herbs, they are still effective in treating Zhu Yuan.

When Gou Wa'er brought Zhu Yuan to the cave, he bent down and examined carefully, he found that Zhu Yuan seemed to have been cut by someone with a sharp weapon, and some of the wounds on his body were still deeply visible. As for the internal injuries, Gou Wa'er couldn't see much. Therefore, the dead horse was simply treated as a living horse doctor. As for Zhu Yuan's inability to move, Gou Wa'er attributed this to exhaustion of physical strength.

Gou Wa'er once tried to communicate with Zhu Yuan, asking him some things about himself, such as where he came from, and who hurt him like this.

But Zhu Yuan is a beast after all, so he can only gesture with his hands. Every time he says a sentence or communicates, it takes a lot of effort. He was hunted down by many people, and he didn't know anything about other things.

What disappointed Gouwa'er even more was that besides knowing where he came from, Zhu Yuan seemed to have forgotten other things. don't remember anything.

So much so that Gou Wa'er felt that dragging him all the way to the cave might have smashed the monkey's brain by accident. After all, there are so many rocks in this mountain, and the ground is bumpy and rough. Come on, it's more than a dozen miles to say the least, the monkey has been dragged so far by him with its head upside down and its feet upside down.

Gou Wa'er shuddered, and didn't dare to think about it anymore, maybe this monkey is stupid in the first place, the boy comforted himself.

Gouwa'er went to bring in all the grilled fish. It rained in the morning, so I'm not sure if it will come again later.

The weather in this mountain is more changeable than the four seasons of the year, maybe the sun is shining brightly in the morning, it is already pouring rain in the afternoon, and it is cold to the bone at night.

The boy moved all the food and things that were drying outside into the cave, while he waited for Zhu Yuan and ate grilled fish, but he still didn't see the big stupid monkey.

The boy expected that after the big monkey recovered, there would be no creatures in the mountain that could do anything to him, so he would not be bothered. The quarrel was not pleasant, so he had to leave the grilled fish for Zhu Yuan and hurried down the mountain.

This dinner, Gou Wa'er certainly didn't enjoy eating, and Zhu Yuan's leaving without saying goodbye was particularly strange. After thinking about it, the boy thought that he could only take this matter as Zhu Yuan's temporary escape to avoid the bearded man who suddenly entered the mountain at that time. Dodge the limelight and make an account.

But everything will be revealed after Zhu Yuan returns to the mountain, and thinking about it now is useless, and as for the possible tragedy, Gouwaer doesn't even dare to think about it.

The author has something to say:

It will probably be updated at seven or eight o'clock in the future.
