It was he who had deceived his mother, who insisted on playing with people who didn't like him, and who had deceived his parents again and again to ruin his reputation. Lin Manliu kept repeating the scene in his dream as he watched it. He was in pain about the people and things just now. He knew that he was in his sleep, but he couldn't get out of this predicament no matter what. At this moment, a very cold voice suddenly came to his ears.
"Don't make a sound." But the sound soon lost its source, and he could only see a deep alley with only a narrow alleyway opening with a faint light. The boy's dream continued, but his brows began to relax gradually, and his expression gradually became calmer.
The scene in the dream was the day after Master came back from the stargazing, and the scene showed his mother waking him up in the morning and saying that he had grown up and sensible. Then the scene changed to the scene of his father patting his shoulder on the day of his trip and saying that he had grown up. They are all going on a long journey. .
Then he moved to a dense forest. Standing in front of him was a general in full armor. He gently wiped the dust from his face and said, "It's okay." General Li saved him twice and was attacked accidentally. The dead soldiers even freed the young man.
After turning around again, he was in a mountain forest. The young man looked back at the girl with a ponytail riding away. She waved her hand to say goodbye. Lin Man looked at the man in his dream holding the handle with "Arbor" engraved on it. I watched "Missing Hometown" "Deng Jian Shan Ye Xing" for a long time until the screen disappeared.
The scene changed again, and it was next to a stream in dusk. A woman sitting on a rock was wiping her cheeks with a wet cloth, gradually wiping away the blood and branch debris on her face, while still muttering this It’s a much nicer word.
In the end, the dream seemed to have ended, and the sounds and images disappeared, but Lin Manliu's thoughts were still wandering.
All these changes were due to the appearance of the master. Because of her arrival, he put away his playful thoughts, and seemed to have suppressed his childhood cleverness in his heart to prevent others from noticing. In the time she spent with her master for less than a month, she taught herself a lot and set herself on a long journey.
Along the way, I have experienced too many people and things, and seen all the ups and downs of the world. If I had not been lucky enough to meet General Li at the beginning, I might have been thrown away as a waste at Jianmen Pass, or maybe I would have been taken advantage of by the soldiers and bandits. kill. In Juzhou City, if I hadn’t thought about educating Qiao Yunnian, who was just like me before, would I have met the senior sister later? Or would I have done something to Qiao Yunnian to relieve his resentment, and ended up being beaten by the disciples of Zhu Jianfeng? He was beaten severely. Without Shan Yexing, when he faced the bandits in Yangfeng Valley, he didn't know if he would have been able to hold on until Yue Hanzhi appeared to rescue them.
It seemed that everything about this long trip was intertwined. If he had taken a wrong step, he might have died on the way. Lin Manliu was very happy that he successfully arrived in Hangzhou, and he was very happy that he did not appear on the way eastward. Unwilling to die unexpectedly. Thinking of this, the boy in a short shirt finally woke up, stood up, opened the window and looked at the bright moon in the sky.
The moonlight seemed to have just peeked out from the clouds. The moonlight was getting brighter little by little, and the whole room seemed to be enveloped in moonlight. The cool night breeze blew into the house, making the boy by the window feel a little more energetic.
Lin Manliu began to rethink what he had done before meeting his master. Each of them seemed to be trivial things, but when connected in series, they turned into a path that slowly led him to self-destruction. Path, but it has been less than two months since I met the master. Have I changed?
The young man went to the wider world outside and saw more people and things. Because these experiences allowed him to learn to think from other people's perspective, to understand other people's actions and situations, to use his own experiences to preach to others, and to better understand what should be done. How to cherish and protect what is in your heart.
Thinking of this, Lin Manliu couldn't help but look at the moonlight in the sky and said: "Through the journey, what I saw was not the scenery or the encounters and misfortunes I experienced, but also this long journey." On the way, I understood the truth and determined what I wanted to protect, and I will answer better when we meet again."
Not far from the downstairs of the inn, there was a man in a yellow shirt holding a sword leaning against a closed door. He looked up at the room with the open window. After confirming that the young man was fine, he smiled and turned around and left. Bu Lu sighed and said to himself: "I still remember that I was trained by Cheng Zhu under the city wall of Yangzhou City for an entire afternoon, fighting swords and asking questions. When I returned to the inn, I almost vomited blood due to bad luck. Although the disease is serious, young people today really have a better mentality."
After that, the man in yellow shirt continued to move forward with his sword in his arms. He seemed to think of something and suddenly stumbled and almost fell. He turned to look at the still open window and muttered with some resentment: "Don't worry about it before. Why did you let Shi Yi teach you swordsmanship? Now that you have met your grandfather and me, you can't help but walk around." After probably venting his anger, he immediately turned around and left with a proud look on his face.
When the sun rose the next morning, white light gradually appeared from the east. Lin Manliu was still sitting by the window and never went back to bed to sleep. He was very energetic and not sleepy. Seeing that the sky was slightly cool, the young man sat up with his whole body skeletal. Because he was motionless last night, his joints began to crackle and roar like rolling thunder in the sky. He moved his muscles and bones to prepare to open the door and go downstairs for breakfast.
As soon as he opened the door, the door of the next door also opened. The room next to Lin Manliu was Yue Hanzhi. He saw that the woman in blue had already put on the bamboo hat and veil and looked towards him. The young man asked in a daze: " What’s wrong?”.
"Go out" came a voice from under the bamboo hat.
"Why are you going out so early in the morning? I want to have breakfast and then sleep..." The boy in a short shirt yawned midway through his words.
"I want to go out for a walk... buy a new curtain hat. This hat is too difficult to carry," the woman in blue thought for a while and said.
Lin Manliu looked at the hat, because it was temporarily borrowed while the caravan was driving. It was too big and a bit worn out. He nodded and informed the caravan steward who was drinking tea downstairs. The two of them left the inn and walked into the city together.
The boy in a short shirt went out and walked side by side with the woman in blue. The boy was taller, probably because he helped the family with work since he was a child. He was about the same height as a seventeen or eighteen year old. He walked with Yue Hanzhi. Yesterday, I was walking through the streets and saw a small market. There were stalls on both sides of the street selling various items. After a while, I found a shop selling curtains, hats, clothing, and cloth.
Entering the shop, there are various styles of curtain hats and bamboo hats on the left wall, but most of them are women's curtain hats. The shop owner seemed to have studied this issue specially. Women's curtains were displayed prominently on the walls. After a while, a waiter came to greet him.
"You two young heroes, do you want to buy some clothes or these hats and hats?" the waiter in the store said enthusiastically, half-bowed and looking at Lin Manliu and Yue Hanzhi who had just entered the door with a smile on their face.
"Let's just take a look and let the store know if we have any needs," the boy in a short shirt said, clasping his fists towards the waiter.
The woman in blue just glanced at the wall without making a choice, then pointed at a curtain hat that was the same color as her clothes, and told the waiter to take it off and pay the bill without intending to give it a try. The boy asked in a low voice from the side. : "Don't look at it any more?".
"Just this one, doesn't it look good?" the hat turned to the young man's side and asked.
"without...".
The two of them left the shop and were about to walk back to the inn. When they passed a fork in the road, they heard discussions coming from the street.
"Then Master Lu will open the bank in five days. Don't you guys have a few practicing brothers? Why don't you join in the fun? Maybe you can join the Lu Mansion in the future so that you can take the brothers to eat and drink."
"Yes, yes, how can you say that you only live in wealth and honor! Don't forget each other!".
"Don't count on a few of us. Those are places where heroes go. We who usually walk around the streets can still be more majestic. Why would we risk our lives if we touch the brows of those heroes?"
