There is a mountain in the south of the Central Plains, named Junshan. The mountain range is long and rugged, and it is difficult for outsiders to enter if they do not know the law. However, there are still many people who try to find ways to go into the mountain to see what is going on, because there is a hidden faction in the mountain, called Zen Buddhism, there are many rumors about this sect in the outside world. Some say that it is a confidant set up by the emperors of all dynasties to protect the safety of the country. There is a chance to attain Taoism and become immortal. There are different opinions, but Zen disciples seldom go out, so outsiders don't know what it is like.

This winter, there was a snowstorm, and the lives of the people in the north were difficult. Although the government allocated funds for disaster relief, the disaster was serious, and it was still a drop in the bucket. In desperation, many people in the north with a little ability to act chose to move south, hoping to survive. .

From the north to the south, the road is not easy. You need to pass through many rugged mountain roads, and sometimes you have to climb mountains and ridges.

That night, it was the night of the full moon, and around midnight, a group of people who were probably moving southwards were traveling together, but they didn't want to turn up a mountain, and they were about to sleep on the top of the mountain when they met Xue Beng, helpless, had no choice but a group of people to flee in a hurry, rushing through the starry night. In a blink of an eye, a mountain was about to pass, but they didn't want to encounter landslides again. After all, the group couldn't escape and were all buried in snow.

The spring water ding-dong, Ruyi felt very noisy in her ears, she wanted to open her eyes, but she couldn't open them anyway, she felt like she was about to fall asleep again, but when she thought of the baby in her womb, she didn't know if it was all right, so she had to force her to open her eyes. He opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the roof of the cave, and in the blink of an eye, a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest sat cross-legged and closed his eyes not far away. "Where is this? You...you are?"

"I am a person who hides from the world in this mountain. This is where I practice." The man's tone was light, and he was still sitting there, his eyes never opened.

"It was you who saved me?" Ruyi forced herself to sit up and rubbed her stomach. Fortunately, the baby was still there, so she could barely rest assured, but it was very cold here, so she couldn't help but hug her shoulders and shrink back.

"Yes and no!"

"This... I don't know what you mean by this long sentence? Could it be that there are other people here who are benefactors of the women?"

"It's just you and me here now!"

"What does the priest mean...?"

"I was the one who saved you. When I saw you, I was half buried in the mountain snow. It was the channel that pulled you out and brought you here. But I didn't save you in vain. You have to pay a price." He finally opened his eyes, but his eyes were flat and dull, showing a look of indifference to the coldness of the world,

"I don't know what the boss wants the women to do?" Ruyi is not an ordinary woman in the village, she has some knowledge, but she calmed down after saying this, and tried to turn her body over to change herself into a comfortable sitting position. Protect your stomach.

"I want the baby in your womb."

"What?" Ruyi subconsciously protected her stomach, and took a step back. "Don't be joking, Daoist."

"Pindao is not a joke. Pindao has two choices with you now. One, you and the baby in your womb will fend for themselves here. Second, I will take out the baby from your belly by caesarean section for you. Watch your belly, and I want your baby to be born. In the near future, coming out early will not affect him, but it is cold here, and your fate is about to end here! You can choose by yourself." The tone was still so light, clearly saying cruel It's like talking about the weather in that population.

"Can the Taoist priest tell the women why this is and why you want the baby in my womb?" Finally, I couldn't control my emotions. There were two choices, but as far as Yu Ruyi was concerned, there was no choice at all. Food without clothes, how to survive with a belly that is about to give birth.

"You don't need to ask about this, but Pindao guarantees that the child in your womb will be properly raised."

She closed her eyes, a drop of tears flowed from the corner of her eyes, she tried her best to calm down her surging heart, and then opened her eyes again. "Does the Taoist really mean what he said?"

"Of course it is true! Pindao never lies!"

"How does the priest convince the women?"

"You can swear to the heavens, the poor, that you will take the child in your womb as a disciple so that you can raise it well!"

"That's it, the Taoist priest will do it!" I closed my eyes, a little despair flooded Ruyi's heart, at this moment, either die with the boy, or win a little life for the boy, there is really no other way, I just hope, the boy Fate is good, what this Taoist said is true, it is good to be able to really raise children.

"Don't worry, the hour is still a quarter away!" The Taoist finally got up, and walked slowly to Ruyi, but his tone was still so indifferent, as if this matter of life and death was just a daily routine.

Ruyi no longer had the strength to speak, she lay down slowly, closed her eyes, and waited for her death.

In a blink of an eye, it was midnight, probably because Tianhan's already frozen body didn't feel much, and the pain from cutting his abdomen was not as unbearable as he imagined. He only heard a baby cry, and Ruyi knew that he couldn't hold on any longer. , reluctantly squinted his eyes to look at the baby, his mind gradually became unclear, until he lost consciousness forever.

Seeing that Ruyi died, the Taoist wrapped the child in his outer shirt, got up and hugged him well, bowed slightly to salute Ruyi, turned around, and left the cave.
