Fang Henshui recited the formula silently in his heart and peeked at the old monk who changed his fate from time to time. He doesn't know what kind of road he is taking now, but he is sure that he is running counter to all his dreams in his life.
He once imagined that he would become an excellent constable, solve countless cases, and get promoted one after another. Sooner or later, he would sit in the seat of county magistrate or even sheriff. When his beard is white, he may be a governor!
He once imagined that he would become a peerless expert to resist countless foreign invasions for the great Sui Dynasty. Even his majesty looked at him with admiration and granted him a general. When his beard was white, there were filial children and a large group of disciples under his knees. He was second to none in the Jianghu and the imperial court.
He once imagined that he would marry a quiet and virtuous lady. Even if you don't become a vital figure in the great Sui Dynasty, you should live a happy life. Walking by the sea with his wife's hand, listening to the sound of the tide, watching the sunset, enjoying every spring, and tasting the alternation of day and month.
He even thought that when he died, he would set the grave on the small earth mountain in his hometown, with the grave head facing the sea.
But these are gone.
After the old monk wisely taught him the mantra of the mantra of turtle breath, he closed his eyes and stopped talking. He looked at the old man who was not tall at all, but he had a strong sense of oppression in front of him like a mountain, and there was no resistance in his heart. The old monk said he was hurt, but Fang hated water. He knew that even the injured old monk could crush himself with one finger.
the principle of Buddhist law
In the great Sui Dynasty, everyone despised Buddhism as a dog, and he turned out to be a disciple of Buddhism.
Fang hated Shui with a bitter smile and said in his heart why fate is so unfair to himself. He is just a constable in a remote county in the Sui Dynasty. Even if he has many magnificent dreams, it's just a dream, isn't it. He is an ordinary person. Every ordinary person will have some distant dreams in his heart.
He knew that he was only a mediocre life in the end. He married the daughter of a fisherman, with rough skin tanned by the sun and blown by the sea wind, and strong waist like a bucket. Having several children, they squatted at the door like starving birds every day waiting for them to go home from the Yamen. When they saw themselves, they rushed up with smiles and shouts, hugging themselves and calling dad.
Why is it like this?
Who have I offended so that I will encounter such bad luck one after another?
Fang hate water thought a lot, and then gradually fell asleep. He was very tired. Although the old monk was thin and short, he was very tired after carrying him all the way, and he hadn't eaten for two days. Some of the food picked up from the students was lost when they fled, and the only thing left is what the old monk can enjoy. He could only look at it, not even smell it.
After falling asleep, he began endless nightmares. I dreamed that I was walking on the prairie in a gray monk's robe and a golden cassock. The herdsmen in strange clothes paid sincere homage to themselves and offered their gold and silver and the most delicious food.
The most beautiful woman, crawling at his feet and kissing his toes.
He looked at the herdsmen proudly and felt the grassland wind completely different from the sea wind. In his dream, he saw the prairie, as magnificent as the sea, but it was green and boundless. The wind rippled the grass like waves. He stood there, enjoying the admiration of everyone.
At this time, a black tide suddenly came over the eastern horizon. He opened his eyes and watched in horror as the black tide rushed unstoppably. The grass was flattened and the herdsmen were crushed. Blood and broken meat were everywhere, and wails and cries rang through the sky.
It was the heavy armor riding of the great Sui Dynasty, which broke the peace in his dream. Those big Sui cavalry in black armor reaped the lives of herdsmen with sharp horses like harvesting wheat. They are like black hurricanes, destroying everything they pass. No one could stop them from moving forward. The loud horn of the Sui army's attack seemed to tear the sky on the grassland.
He could not stop the majestic army. He dreamed that he was knocked over by a red war horse. The knight on the horse held a long knife dripping blood in his hand. His indifferent eyes looked at him without a trace of emotion. He wanted to kneel down and beg, but he was trampled by the red war horse and couldn't turn over at all. He wanted to say that he was also from the Sui Dynasty, but he clearly felt that the eyes behind the Sui general's face armor could see everything.
"You are a traitor, traitor of the great Sui Dynasty, so... You can only die."
The Sui general spoke indifferently, and then slowly raised the huge red long knife. At this time, Fang hated the water and saw that the knife was not red because it was covered with blood. The knife had such a color, strange, deep and frightening red.
The blade was raised, and the sun seemed to penetrate the blade.
What a terrible knife.
What a beautiful knife.
When the knife fell, Fang hated water and even saw his head rolling on the ground. The blood in the neck sprayed out like a waterfall, and the blood was full of shame.
Ah!
Fang Henshui woke up, and his body was soaked with sweat.
I'm not a Sui anymore
Fang Henshui woke up trembling and curled up in the corner of the tree hole. He held his knees, buried his head between his legs, and dared not open his eyes to see the world. After a long time, he suddenly looked up at the old monk with hatred in his eyes. It was late at night, and it was darker in the tree hole. He could only see the invisible outline of the old monk, sitting there cross legged like a zombie.
The old monk is still in meditation. He doesn't seem to hear or see him at all.
Fang hated the water biting his lips, and the blood slowly slipped down the corners of his mouth.
……
……
Fang Xie stretched when he woke up, and then failed again in trying to calculate the time. The dungeon is dark all year round. Even if it is sunny outside, it is still frightening if there is no light here. The light here is always dim yellow. It is impossible to infer whether it is day or night because of that oil lamp.
Being in this place for a long time will make people feel confused. All day and night, confused. Perhaps it was intentional. The time of delivering meals to him was irregular. So that fangxie completely lost time, and gradually didn't bother to think about whether it was the sun or the moon hanging in the sky outside.
If Fang Xie doesn't speak, it seems that he can hear his own heartbeat quietly in the stone chamber. People always want to pursue a quiet life at some time and don't want to be disturbed by anyone or anything. But when you are really in such an absolutely quiet secret room, you often have boundless fear in your heart.
There was no sound, so that the sound of moving your body a little was so harsh.
Fang Xie frowned. After brewing for a long time, his expression finally became happy. A distant and sharp fart was forced out of his stomach, tearing the silence in the stone chamber. The voice suddenly sounded, so proud.
Fang Xie smiled proudly, turned over and continued to sleep.
Perhaps this is a very boring struggle, not ridiculous, but a desolation.
When Fang Xie opened his eyes for the second time, there was no change in the room. The lamp tirelessly stuck to its post, and I didn't know how the lamp oil could not burn out. Just as Fang Xie got ready to sprinkle a bubble and hold his urine for a long time, a voice sounded outside the iron door.
From this point, it is uncertain that it is day now, because there are people outside all the time. And there are always some boring people who will come to see him at any time, push open the iron door and say a few boring words to him. For example, the man with one arm seems to like to have nothing to do to see Fang Xie's embarrassment at this time.
Fang Xie left the stone bed at the fastest speed, rushed to the corner, lifted the nightpot and sprinkled a bubble of Sao yellow urine. The expression on his face was so intoxicated, as if he had just become a beautiful woman.
The iron door opened, and the people who came in outside were stunned when they saw Fang Xie lifting his pants, and his face showed a strong displeasure.
This is a man Fang Xie has never met. He is very young. Wearing a light gray Royal dress that is almost moon white, a jade pendant is hung on the belt, and the red tassels are particularly eye-catching. This man is tall, but not tall. It seems that it's under Fang Xie's ear at most. It is said that his figure is long because it seems that his figure proportion is perfect.
The young man's face is very white. It's not the kind of powdered white, nor the kind of morbid white. The white is very healthy and has the texture of lanolin white jade. His eyebrows are very thin, slightly picked, his eyes are big and arrogant. Compared with a man, his jaw is a little sharp, but it is not inconsistent.
Among men, he is definitely a beautiful man.
But Fang Xie could see at a glance that this was a girl. Or a self righteous girl who thinks that wearing a man's dress can deceive all the coyotes.
She was followed by a big man, but she looked very respectful behind the young man. So Fang Xie guessed the identity of the chick who could make Hou Wenji the caretaker of the Imperial Guard's office.
"Disgusting"
The woman disguised as a man frowned and raised his hand to cover his nose.
"It's normal to eat, drink water, shit and pee. If you feel sick, I really don't know what else you don't feel sick. Moreover... Your definition of nausea is too simple to understand what is nausea."
Fang Xie carelessly sat back on the stone bed, took off his shoes and began to pick his feet.
"Your Highness..."
Hou Wen shouted in a very low voice, trying to persuade the woman with a gloomy face. She was the one who was brought back to the soldiers of the service camp by Taoist Hezhen on the half moon mountain that day. If Fang Xie was present, it would be easy to infer her identity.
The straight faced woman took a breath slowly to make herself look calm. She came here purely because of curiosity. She was curious to know what the heirs of the seventh uncle who loved her most were like. But at the moment when she saw Fang Xie, she was obviously disappointed. Although the dirty guy has beautiful looks, the way he sits on the stone bed and picks his feet is really disgusting.
"That's good"
She went to the chair and sat down, trying to look cold and plain: "then tell me, what is disgusting?"
Fang Xie glanced at Hou Wenji, pointed to his nose and asked, "do I have to answer?"
He had to frown when his fingers were close to the tip of his nose, so he picked his feet. His fingers didn't taste very good.
Hou Wenji nodded: "yes."
Fang Xie gave a sound, sat up straight and looked at the woman for a while. His eyes swept from top to bottom. This made the woman more unhappy, but she pretended to be calm in order to show her strength. She was not angry simply because the prisoner seemed to despise her. If you are angry, you may be despised by this annoying guy.
"Disgusting thing... You can imagine that you ate a piece of shit for breakfast. People who shit may be angry, and some of that piece of shit is black and hard. So it will stick to your teeth and it's not easy to swallow."
The woman's face changed and her stomach churned.
"Of course, you can think of it as dry rice. You can find another person with disharmony between intestines and stomach to make a thin bubble and drink it as porridge. Rinse the dry rice you had before."
The woman tightly pursed her mouth and looked at Fang Xie with more and more anger. The tumbling in her stomach was almost beyond her control, but she didn't vomit after all.
"This is disgusting? But so!"
She asked with a sneer.
"No, no, no"
Fang Xie waved her hand again and again, then looked into her eyes and said seriously, "what's disgusting is... You've stuffed your teeth."
wow
She finally couldn't hold on and vomited out.
