All your life is gentle

Waking up in the morning, Zi Shi patted his younger siblings to wake him up: "Hurry up, we're going to explore the hidden world." While tidying up, he asked, "Zi Zhou, where's Gu Changsheng? Why didn't I take you with me today?" In recent days, Chang Sheng practiced kung fu every morning. When looking for food, they all bring plums for a week.

"Yeah, why didn't Brother Changsheng call me today?" The person being asked scratched his head.

"I don't care about him, he just likes to pretend to be mysterious."

When the hour of Chen is almost over, there is still no sign.The three became worried.Zi Shi ordered something: "I only brought a bow and arrow and a scimitar. I didn't take any money, and I didn't wear a coat. I guess I went to practice... Not to mention ordinary people, he can handle even tigers and leopards, and he won't get lost... What could be the matter? It’s so weird..."

Suddenly there was the sound of chaotic footsteps, and after a while, a group of people appeared outside the cave.Seven or eight men, women, young and old, seem to be a big family.Seeing them, they immediately stopped, all showing joyful expressions.

A young man in his 20s came over to say hello: "Little brother, is this road going to Maye Town?"

Zi Shi nodded: "Yes."

They looked at each other and smiled: "Finally asked."

"But you have to go around the "Jade Hairpin Peak" and "Makeup Remover" to see the avenue."

"It seems very far away..." The young man turned from joy to worry, "I heard that Maye Town is just across Xianshu Ridge. Who knew it was such a large mountain peak, and we didn't go out after detouring for two whole days..."

"It's not far away. If you walk fast, you can get out of the mountain within half a day. You can see Maye Town within less than fifty miles east of the main road."

The young man looked back at his family, looked at his son Shi again, hesitated to speak.After hesitating for a moment, he saluted and said, "The little brother seems to be very familiar with the road. I don't know if you are going to Maye Town, can you let us go along the way?"

Zi Shi pondered: "There is only one of us, we went looking for something to eat, maybe we will come back when. Why don't I explain it to you in more detail..."

"This...to tell you the truth, little brother, my father's old illness has relapsed, so I really can't wait any longer. I am in a hurry to go to the town to find a doctor. If I get lost again, just... this...can you..." The young man lowered his head and rubbed his hands.The other party has never met before, and his request is indeed a bit difficult.

Zi Shi took a few steps closer.The old man was supported by his family, coughing and wheezing, unable to speak.

Zi Zhouzi came over with a look of pity on his face.Zigui tugged at the corner of Zishi's clothes: "Brother, let's send them off."

Looking up, the mountain road bends and ends.The mountains and mountains in the distance are undulating and filled with clouds and smoke.There is a sound in every voice, and there is no trace of anyone.This guy Gu Changsheng is only in this mountain, and Yun Shen doesn't know where - where did he die!

The old man's "wheezing and wheezing" panting sound came from his ears again, and it seemed that he would stop breathing at any time.

"Zizhou, you stay here, take care of your luggage, and wait for Gu Changsheng. Zigui and I will send them to the main road, and we will definitely be back before dark." After thinking about it, he said, "After he comes back, you two should go to the dressing table. Welcome us." Before leaving, he added: "Before he comes back, you must not wander around, just wait here."

The boy nodded heavily: "Brother, be careful."

The young man was grateful, and introduced himself as he walked: "My name is Wei Shu. I am from Yicheng." Pointing to the older man with his back on his back, "That's my elder brother Wei Liang." Another one in his fifties Yes, it's Wei's parents.The three women are Wei Shu's sister-in-law, niece and maid.

"Yicheng is near the river, so the soldiers from the West will enter the city in June? Why are you here now?"

"Well, the old man refused to stay away from the country, so we had no choice but to go back to the country manor to hide. Originally, the black barbarian soldiers were staying by the river, and there has been no movement. Who knew that they would suddenly call south in September... and escaped in a hurry , the car broke down on the way, and the servants also dispersed, and in the end there were only a few people left..."

Wei Shu's voice was sad.Zi Shi thought to himself: "It turns out that he is a big landlord."

Mr. Wei was panting badly, and he had to stop to breathe for him from time to time.It wasn't until the afternoon that I walked under the makeup remover.Zi Shi looked at the sky and was a little worried: at this speed, it would be difficult to get back before dark.I hope Gu Changsheng and Zi Zhou can meet them in time.

The group rested a little, got up and prepared to move on.

Suddenly there was a whistle, and several people came out from the corner of the mountain road with knives in hand, blocking the way.

Everyone was shocked, took a few steps back, and gathered together.

Zi Shi quietly made a wrong step and stood in front of Zi Gui.The girl stretched out her hand to rub against the rocks, and wiped two handfuls on her face.

Seeing how many knives were in the opponent's hand, Wei Liang went up to them in fear.Holding the money bag in both hands, he repeatedly bowed and bowed: "It is not a respect to pay for drinks and water. Please accept it with a smile. Those who are fleeing, please borrow your precious land from your hometown, and ask your king to raise your hand and let a way out."

Zi Shi secretly counted the heads.It would be best if the other party accepted the money and let them go.When you have to, you may not be able to give it a go.

"Wait a minute, let's see what our boss means." A man in the middle replied carelessly.

There was a sound of horseshoe footsteps, and a dozen came over.It turned out that these people were just outposts to open the way. Seeing that the big team had arrived, they quickly stepped aside.At first the three of them rode on horses, and the rest followed behind with swords, guns and sticks, and several of them carried boxes and packages.Zi Shi groaned in his heart, it seemed that he had met a group of robbers and returned from robbery.

"Ha! I picked up fat at the door of the house. Brothers, this trip is really not bad." The man in the middle reined in and laughed loudly.Zi Shi took a sneak peek: the bandit leader has a pair of peach blossom eyes, two extremely long eyebrows, almost connected together, flying obliquely into the temples, looking indescribably arrogant, domineering, evil, and evil.

"Boss, since our reputation has become more and more famous, there has been no one in Xianshu Ridge for a few days. It caused the brothers to go all the way to hunt..." said a man on a horse beside him.

"Okay, don't complain. These days, business is so easy to do. Before the black barbarian comes, it's a fortune..." Looking at the prey in front of him, "You guys, are you from the west? I must have never heard of my reputation as "Bodhi Village", no wonder I dared to walk under the dressing table... It happens that there is a shortage of people in the village, so it deserves to be in the hands of our brothers." He raised his eyebrows and rubbed his chin, "There are women... ...That's good. Brothers, take them all back!"

"Bodhi Village"?Zi Shi thought to himself: This name is really special, it has personality and culture.At the same time, he squeezed Zigui's hand hard, telling her not to make a sound, not to struggle.A few women from the Wei family over there cried out and got slapped twice.Wei Shu rushed up to protect his sister-in-law and niece, but was kicked to the ground and tied tightly.

"Boss, there is an old man who is dying of illness."

"Trash, just give him a knife and it will be over."

The robber got the order, kicked Wei Liang away, drew his knife and stabbed Mr. Wei's chest twice.The old man let out a few "ho ho"s in his throat, fell to the ground, and died.

The men and women of the Wei family rushed over hoarsely, but were beaten and kicked.Finally, with rags stuffed in their mouths, they tied them in a string and crawled forward.

A robber comes and binds Zi Shi and Zi Gui.

The bandit leader was quite surprised to see that the two of them behaved well without arguing, "You two are really nice."

Zi Shi bowed his head and replied: "Returning to the king's words, my brothers and they are not a family. They just met on the road and walked together."I also blame myself and others for not staying in Maye Town, otherwise I would have heard news of robbers in Xianshuling, so I wouldn't be so careless.Damn Gu Changsheng, just played missing today, and I don't know if Zizhou waited until he didn't...

"Looking at you, you don't seem to be afraid of me."

Zi Shi bowed hurriedly: "The villain is terrified. It's just because I heard the king said that he wants to be ordered. The villain thinks that the army is in chaos. My brothers and I can follow the king. It is a way of life. If the king wants to order the villain, it is indispensable." Reward the villain with a bite of food. It is impossible for the villain to charge into the battle, to wave the flag for the king, to cheer for the king, or to be competent..."

"Haha..." The bandit leader looked up to the sky and laughed, "Waving the flag and shouting? Cheering? Interesting!"

Clamping the horse's belly, he went first, and the opponent said: "Loosen the ropes of these two boys. They can't run away."

In the morning, Changsheng got out of the hole, his whole body was soaked, and the water dripped down.He took off his clothes and twisted them, and still put them on.Standing looking east for a while, he took out two arrows from the animal skin bag on his waist, and shot them into the ground of the cave entrance with two "pops".The arrow cluster sank three inches into the ground, and the tail feathers trembled endlessly.

These arrows were made by buying sharp cones, ropes, and raw rubber when passing a certain town, and four people gathered together to chop bamboo and cut bird feathers.I remember that Li Zishi told several allusions about bows and arrows at that time. Li Zizhou argued with his brother for a long time about whether Xirong's bow and horse must be better than Xiaren Zhanzhen, and he felt itchy in his heart.It is obviously the topic with the most right to speak, so I have to endure it.

I never thought that there really is such a wonderful place in the world.If he hadn't had to leave, it would be very comfortable to stay inside for a few months... If he couldn't wait for him, he would have led his younger siblings to find a place to stay first.With their footsteps, a day's work is almost the same.They must recognize these two arrows.Then, he will definitely understand what I mean...

Doubles are heavy; arrows are seen.The double arrows symbolize the reunion in the future——Changsheng laughed at himself, having been with Li Zishi for a long time, he even started playing word games.

It's just... After this walk, when will we meet again?

With this wonderland, it must be safe to spend this winter safely.As for what will happen in the future... He is so smart, and the two younger ones have made great progress, so it should be no problem to protect himself... After comforting himself in this way, Changsheng couldn't help but turn his eyes to the distant future: the day of peace in the world really came , Is it... there will be a time when you and I meet again?Not to mention the vast sea of ​​people and the indistinct traces, when the time comes, I am afraid that everything will change, even if we meet again... so what?

— That's another question, let's talk about it.

Look up, the sun has come out.The Xiansuling Mountain has high valleys and deep valleys, with overlapping ups and downs, forming its own microclimate, completely unaffected by external drought.The mountain wind brings night dew and morning mist, and it feels refreshing but not cold.The clothes fluttered with the wind, and there was a sound of hunting. After a while, it was almost done.

Changsheng suddenly realized that it was not the good weather and beautiful scenery that made him linger, but the feeling of reluctance that lingered like morning mist... Shaking his head, he ordered himself: Go!

With a bow and arrow and a scimitar, he jumped up.Instead of taking the mountain road, he climbed over huge boulders, crossed dense forests, and headed straight to the north.

Without the fetters of dragging, jumping and flying all the way, the speed is extremely fast.In the afternoon, we were already approaching the northern mountain pass, and we were about to say goodbye to Xianshuling.The trees and rocks on both sides "swish" behind me, and my heart is full of joy.This gallop reflected the results of my recent hard-working and hard-working practice: the air flow was flowing freely and endlessly, and I didn't feel tired at all after running for more than 100 miles.The inner breath is surging like a river, and I want to raise my head to the sky and let out a long roar, but I am afraid of shocking the world, so I hold it back with all my strength.

Suddenly, there was a huge shock all over his body, and he stopped abruptly.Because he stopped too quickly, he almost staggered and hit a tree.Just now I was talking about fear of shocking the world, only to realize that the journey of more than 100 miles has no human habitation!Thinking back carefully, since entering the mountain, I have never seen a single person!Xianshuling is not a barren mountain in the wild. Judging from Li Zishi's previous introduction, there were Orion families living in the mountain many years ago.I walked all the way, although I walked very fast, I still vaguely remember seeing a few huts and bamboo fences, but they were all silent...There are only two possibilities for all signs: either there are beasts in the mountains recently, or... Strongmen and bandits gathered together.

Changsheng turned around and ran back.There is no longer the ease and casualness of just now, the impatience, and doing everything with all your strength.The more anxious you are, the heavier your legs are, and you only hate that your speed is not fast enough.What passed before his eyes was no longer the breeze, mist, and yellow leaves, but three faces full of lively laughter.It was as if I heard the two children's affectionate and crisp calls again: "Brother Changsheng! Brother Changsheng!" I heard him call softly, "Gu Changsheng."

Waves of regret came to my heart: I was too careless, I should have escorted them to the place secretly.In case... no, no!Panic, like a surging tide, submerged in an instant.His strength seemed to be taken away by the tide all at once, and his legs were weak and trembling.

Changsheng was extremely disappointed with his state, and drew his sword angrily.A silver light flashed, and a fir tree was chopped off at the waist and fell to the ground with a crash.Feeling that his breathing was normal, he put the knife back into its sheath, let out a clear whistle, and flew south.

Back to the cave I visited in the morning, the two arrows were still standing silently at the entrance of the cave.

"They haven't come yet..." Immediately pulled out the bamboo arrow and walked down the mountain road.Suppressing the uneasiness in my heart, I paid attention to the movement around me while walking.Walking quickly to the place where I stayed overnight, I saw a small figure standing in the twilight from a distance, motionless.

"Zi Zhou..."

The boy ran up a few steps: "Brother Changsheng!" He paused, rubbed his eyes, and smiled with red eye circles, "Why did you come back? We waited desperately..."

"There's something... Delayed. Where's your elder brother... He Zigui?"

"Brother sent a few lost people to the avenue, and told us to meet them at the makeup remover."

Zi Shi, Zi Gui, and members of the Wei family followed the robbers for more than an hour, and the mountain road became steeper and steeper.The first three got off their horses and handed them over to their subordinates to lead them.The leader said with a smile: "Second brother, third child, let's start with this old locust tree as a memory."

The second child on the left said: "It's nothing to win the third child. Boss, if I am less than a quarter of an hour away from you today, how about letting my brother taste the prettier girl over there?" He said, It was Wei Liang's daughter, sixteen or seventeen years old, with a sweet appearance.

"My brother, why not? It depends on your ability." The leader laughed and shouted, and the three of them jumped up at the same time, and began to compete with each other.

The bandit leader disappeared in the blink of an eye.The other two fell behind, and after a while, they also went far.Seeing this scene, Zi Shi brothers and sisters and everyone in the Wei family felt even more terrified.These three people obviously have martial arts, and the leader is even more powerful, no wonder this group of gangsters are so accommodating.

It was getting dark before we reached the ground.It turned out that they turned a deserted ancient temple on the top of the mountain into a den of thieves.Zi Shi looked up and saw a plaque hanging crookedly on the mountain gate, with several large characters vaguely discernible: "Miaofa Bodhi Temple".It turns out that the so-called "Bodhi Village" is because it is located in the Bodhi Temple.The couplet on the left has fallen off, but the right side can barely see clearly, saying: "If you are obsessed with the sea of ​​suffering, how can you get over this body?" After reading this sentence, I suddenly felt that the situation and scene were extremely absurd, and I couldn't help thinking about it. laugh.

The robbers threw Zi Shi, Zi Gui and other members of the Wei family into the side hall together, leaving two of them to watch, and the rest went out to eat and share the spoils.The three women of the Wei family were crying non-stop, and the three men were beaten so badly that their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen. They gritted their teeth in grief and anger, but there was nothing they could do.Not long after, word spread from outside that the prey caught today would be brought to the hall.

The statue of Buddha in the temple has long disappeared. The bandit leader sat in the middle and smiled at the two sworn brothers: "You have lost again. Brother, I will not be polite. The men will be locked up in the firewood room first. The women on the right will stay behind." Come on, take the two on the left away, you can enjoy yourself." While talking, he got up, and walked towards Miss Wei with a wicked smile.

"Tell the other brothers to bear it first. Take it easy, don't kill people. Such a good thing is hard to come by..."

Wei Liang and Wei Shu struggled desperately to protect their family, but it was in vain.The two women, with disheveled hair, cried out loudly, and were mercilessly dragged out.Several robbers came up again to drag the men.Zi Shi firmly grabbed his sister's shoulder.This girl's palms are bleeding.However, this is not the time to act bravely... Please, aunt, please follow along, but don't say anything...

Miss Wei screamed and rushed out, the bandit leader grabbed her wrist and tore off half of her clothes with a "chuck".She trembled in fright, turned her face suddenly, and shouted hysterically at Zigui: "She's a girl too! She's a girl too! Why didn't you catch her? Why——"

Zi Shi only felt a "buzz" in his head, and his eyes went black: what should I do, what should I do...

Zigui didn't expect that Miss Wei would reveal himself, and his eyes widened: "You..." The voice was crisp and delicate, and it was clear to the ear.

"Huh? Interesting..." The bandit leader walked over, making a face that wanted to pinch his face.The girl took half a step back, twisted her waist and turned around, raised her leg and kicked it.

The other party was taken aback for a moment, then stepped aside.She smiled sympathetically and said: "What a fierce little girl. So you are still a housewife. I underestimated you, you pretended to be so good!" After a few moves, she has already caught her at her core, "Postform is not bad, but it's a pity that you have skill. It's too shallow. It's time to train her well..." As he spoke, he freed up a hand to pull at her skirt.

"Hold on, Your Majesty!" Zi Shi said loudly.As soon as Zi Gui made a move, the robbers put the knives on the necks of several men.Just as he was about to move forward, the blade was already coldly attached to his skin.

"Oh? Could it be that you are the hidden master?" The bandit leader turned his head and looked at him.

"Sister She has been naughty since she was a child. She likes to wear men's clothing. The family has no choice but to ask her to learn a few styles of embroidering legs. As for the villain, he is just a scholar."

"Your sister is quite to my liking..."

"Your Majesty's blue eyes are an honor for my brothers and sisters. It's just...my sister is only twelve, and I don't know about her life at a young age. I'm afraid your Majesty won't be able to enjoy herself to the fullest..."

These few words are very unexpected.The bandit leader remembered that this kid was surprising from the very beginning when he spoke, he seemed courteous, but in fact he spoke in a smooth manner, not telling the truth.So squinting his eyes, he said, "What do you want to say?"

"It's better... let the villain serve the king." Zi Shi raised his head slightly.

The other party was completely surprised.Dry laugh twice: "Don't tell me you are also a woman disguised as a man."

Zi Shi smiled lightly, and cast a mocking glance over him: "People say the joy of breaking one's sleeves, the joy of sharing peaches, has your majesty never tasted it?"

The humility of this smile is gone, the eyebrows are full of spring, and the eyes are full of affection, suddenly giving birth to a different kind of charming and romantic, which makes everyone's heart flutter.Not only the bandit leader, but everyone else in the hall was stunned.In an instant, the young man seemed to have changed into a different person.

"It's really... Hey! I haven't tried it." The bandit leader was actually embarrassed by him.Immediately sobered up, a little embarrassment turned into anger, "So what?"

"There is no limit to the joy in the world. Why don't you try it, Your Majesty?"

The author has something to say:

Queen Mother: Ah Du, it's about time, right?

A certain block: This... Your Majesty, please allow a few more chapters...

Queen Mother: Hmph!You procrastinated and dragged a hundred thousand words, not to mention defrauding the project funds with Yan Luo, and even advanced my personal allowance...

A certain Du (whispered): He didn’t give me any... He wrote a bad check and promised to save me from the hell of pulling out my tongue after death. How can I think about this and why is it wrong...

Queen Mother: I don't care what you do.If the name is so untrue, I will immediately hand over this project to someone else.They are more professional than you...

A certain Du (sad): I can't bear it... Madam, are you willing?

Queen Mother: Uh... I'm a bit reluctant.I can't bear it, it's fun to abuse...
