Ruan Xianbei never had another dream for a long time after he had a recurring dream about his body being penetrated and his heart ripped out.
After seeing Shen Xuan fall asleep in a happy mood last night, she had a long and silent dream for a long time. Every time she had such a dream, she would have a splitting headache, so that she would be very irritable and depressed after getting up.
Yun Zhi stretched her brows with her fingertips and asked, "Is it still the same dream?"
"It's a different dream. It's the first time in a long time that I have a new dream."
"There was a big, bright moon. In a valley, fire was blazing into the sky. There were shouts of killing everywhere, and corpses were strewn all over the ground. There was a man carrying me on his back, leading me and my eldest brother to escape. I seemed very small. , because the eldest brother was so short...I couldn't see his face clearly, and when he was about to turn around...he died."
"Why are there always dead people around me? Why do good people never live long? Why can I only watch tragedies happen? Why can't I remember my life before I was seven years old?" Ruan Xianbei's emotions fluctuated greatly as he spoke.
Yun Zhi said distressedly: "Saint...Saint, Yun Zhi thought maybe it was God's blessing for you. As you said before, there is no way to choose when you are born, but at least you can choose your own life. If this Dreams are prophecies or things that have already happened, and the worst outcome is just like in the dream, we all die and everyone dies. Compared to this worst outcome, everything else is a good outcome."
"Yes! You are right!" Ruan Xianbei felt as if he had woken up the person in his dream with his words. He sat up suddenly and looked at Yun Zhi in surprise as he grabbed her shoulders and said, "I know the worst outcome. You can take precautions in advance to prevent it from happening! Thank you, Ah Zhi, our Ah Zhi is really smart, gentle and considerate."
Ruan Xianbei's state of being resurrected with full blood startled Yun Zhi, and then she smiled and said: "The saint is very smart, but it was just a temporary misunderstanding. Even if I don't tell you, it won't take long for you to figure it out."
The two people in the room were blowing rainbow farts to each other, and a sour female voice came in from outside the door: "Miss, you know Ah Zhi, Ah Zhi, am I not smart, gentle, and considerate? Next time, just don't bring me, the light bulb, out. I'll stay here." Home is fine."
Ruan Xianbei and Yun Zhi looked at each other and smiled. Yun Zhi called Yun Cai in and said, "If it weren't for A Cai guarding me outside, how could I be so relieved to let the lady relax?"
Ruan Xianbei smiled and said: "Of course our Ah Cai is also smart, gentle and considerate!"
Yun Cai stuck out her tongue at Yun Zhi and made a face: "I can't compare to Sister Ah Zhi."
"You little girl!" Yun Zhi laughed and scolded and pinched her waist. Seeing the two of them laughing and having fun for a while, Ruan Xianbei felt much better. As expected, seeing the cute girl was both pleasing to the eye and good to the body.
…
The village at the foot of Cangshan Mountain is called Cangxi Village. In fact, Cangxi Village is a little larger than ordinary villages after operation, but slightly smaller than a town. However, I have become accustomed to it and have never changed it. It can be said that although it is a small sparrow, it has all the internal organs.
"Uncle, how can I get to the snack shop?" He Yu bent down and asked.
"Hey, go straight, go straight on this road, there is an alley to the west, it's all there!" The old man who was sitting in front of his house and basking in the sun said loudly.
The road in Cangxi Village is very wide, and there are inns and private houses on both sides when you enter the village. The two of them walked forward and saw many vendors pushing carts and setting up stalls to sell goods. After walking a few steps further, there was a fragrance coming from an alley to the west.
There is a sign hanging on the tree at the corner, Baishui Lane.
"I seem to smell meat?"
"Xiao Yi, look at the candied haws seller! Grandpa hasn't let me eat it since I was eight years old."
“This store at the door smells so good...it’s full of steamed buns!”
"There's a candy seller over there!"
Lin Yi and He Yu were very excited. Seeing a lot of people surrounding the candy maker's stall, they hurried over to take a look.
"Candy figures are a penny each! Girl, do you want one?" The woman selling candy had many candy figures in front of her stall. Candy was boiling on the stove on the right hand side. There was a slate on the table, and there was a picture next to it. Painting, painting all kinds of animals.
"Auntie, make one for me! Lan Zhao, what kind do you like?" The man in black shirt standing at the front shouted, then turned to the girl next to him and asked in a low voice.
"Miss Lan Zhao, there are some small shops in front of you. If you don't like this one, let's go check out other ones." Another man stood on the other side of Lan Zhao with a sword on his waist, and his tone was softer than the previous one. There are many, and the person looks much better than the previous one.
"Hey! This has nothing to do with you. Are you sick of following Lan Zhao everywhere?" The man in black has a darker complexion, a loud voice, and a rugged appearance, with eyebrows like angry birds.
"Brother, I'm not talking to you. Your voice is too loud. I'm afraid it will cause you a lot of trouble." The man with the sword said slowly.
"You!" The man in the black shirt choked out. He looked at the people around them and it seemed that they were indeed gathered around them. He looked at Lan Zhao's emotionless expression and endured it.
When the onlookers heard this, they thought, hey, what a scene of jealousy, Cangxi Village has not been so lively for a long time, it’s good to have more young people!
"Auntie, make one for me." The girl named Lan Zhao ignored their quarrel, took out a penny and bent down to put it into the woman's basket.
"Okay, what does the girl like? Do you want to draw a candy man or make a candy man?"
"Draw a bunny."
"Okay, thank you girl."
The woman scooped out some sugar from the pot and placed it on the smooth stone slab. With a flick of her wrist, she used a copper piece and a spoon to draw a lifelike little rabbit on the stone slab. Finally, I took a bamboo stick and placed it on the painting, slowly poured sugar syrup on it to fix the bamboo stick, and it was done.
"Come on, girl, take it. Thank you, girl."
Lan Zhao picked up the little rabbit and looked at it again and again but was reluctant to eat it. Suddenly the alley was noisy and a little boy ran through the crowd and bumped into many people. He Yu, who was beside her, was also bumped and accidentally knocked Lan Zhao's candy to the ground. 
Looking at the dirty rabbit in his hand one second and on the ground the next, Lan Zhao sighed softly.
"What's wrong with you?!" the man in the black shirt said angrily to He Yu. The breath he had just choked by the man with the sword was also directed at He Yu. He reached out and pushed her: "I hit someone!"
He said to Lan Zhao again: "Don't be sad, Lan Zhao, I will buy you another one."
"Girl... I'm sorry...! Let me compensate you." He Yu was pushed by the sudden force of the man in black and almost fell down. He was caught by Lin Yi with quick eyes and hands. He was panicked and guilty. Get out the money bag quickly.
"It's okay." Lan Zhao said to He Yu.
After touching for a long time, He Yu only touched the broken rope. When he lowered his head and looked at it, his face turned pale: "The money bag just... seems to have been stolen just now..."
The money bag that He Yu was carrying was given by Ruan Xianbei, and Lin Yi had no money at all. The man in black shirt said a few words to them, even if they didn't notice, they still came to the martial arts meeting, and the small sect was embarrassed, and so on. The individual feels like a thorn in the back under the gaze of others, standing there with his head hanging down like a child who has done something wrong.
Lan Zhao picked up the dirty little rabbit and asked, "Auntie, where can I throw this dirty rabbit?"
"Just put it in the basket next to it."
Lan Zhao nodded, took out another two cents and put it into the basket: "Auntie, please help me draw two more rabbits."
After a while, the two rabbits were ready again. Lan Zhao took one and handed the other to He Yu.
"Please eat."
"The girl is so beautiful and kind-hearted! If you come again next time, I will give her a candy man!" the woman selling candy praised loudly.
There was no expected fight, and the man in black shirt who had been standing out just now slipped away at some point, the man with the sword was no longer in the crowd, and the crowd of spectators gradually dispersed.
He Yu looked at the rabbit in front of him and couldn't help but his eyes turned red: "Thank you, girl, I can't take this."
"There are too many people here, let's go somewhere else to talk."
The three of them walked out of Baishui Lane and found a quiet place. Lan Zhao handed the candy man to her again: "If you don't want it, I will pretend not to recognize you when we meet again. How will you compensate me for the candy? Besides, you It’s not intentional, I’m not a petty person, I’m going to get angry if I’m still dawdling.”
Lan Zhao's voice is very pleasant, like a breeze blowing on your face, making you feel relaxed and happy.
He Yu stared blankly at her and the rabbit. Lan Zhao kept her hand raised there. Lin Yi helped her take the candy and put it into He Yu's hand and said: "Junior sister, don't worry about it. Thank you very much." After speaking, he tugged on He Yu's sleeve and thanked Lan Zhao: "Tianyu Sect Lin Yi, He Yu, thank you for helping me save the siege."
He Yu came back to his senses and thanked Lan Zhao together with Lin Yi. Thinking of the two people just now, he asked: "Girl, those two people just now..."
"How can I help you when there is nothing to do? Instead, I should apologize to you for causing trouble for you. My name is Lan Zhao, a disciple of Wanhua Valley. The one in black is Five Thunder Gate and Thunder Stone, and the other is Pu Zhou, the young master of Xuanyue Sword Sect."
"Ah... they are all sects. Miss Lan Zhao will find it very troublesome, right?" He Yu said, thinking of the saying that people can't help themselves in the world.
Lan Zhao did not answer this sentence and just smiled and said: "I live in Baicao Peak. If you need any help, you can come to me."
After Lan Zhao left, the two returned to Baishui Lane and stood in front of a sweet shop selling candied fruits, looking at each other.
He Yu: "What should I do if I don't have money..."
Lin Yi: "How about we perform as entertainers? Doesn't it say in the book that when we have no money, we perform entertainers, break rocks and swallow big guns!" After saying that, he patted his chest eagerly.
He Yu, who seemed to have suddenly grown up in an instant, had a heavy face: "It's so embarrassing...be careful if your skin is peeled off by your senior brother..."
At this time, someone tapped their shoulders from behind, and several money bags appeared in front of them: "Young man, did you drop the money bag, this money bag, or this money bag?"
The two of them turned around, and a familiar old face appeared in front of them with a smile.
"Uncle Old Wang!"
Elder Wang: Why did Uncle Wang add an old Uncle Wang... Is he really old? ? ?
Lin Yi jumped up excitedly and said, "Uncle Wang, why are you here?"
"I just felt an impulse for no reason, so I calculated with my fingers that your first trip alone might not go well, so I'm here!" Elder Wang returned the money bag to He Yu, "This kid is a specially trained thief. It’s not surprising that he succeeded. I’ll get the money bag back for you.”
"Wow, thank you, Uncle Wang! It's amazing. Uncle Wang can even calculate where we are and what happens!" He Yu took the purse and looked at it. All the money was in it, and said happily: "I'll buy candied fruits for Sister Ruan." !”
Elder Wang waved his hand to express that it was a trivial matter, and laughed in his heart: Hehe, kids are so easy to deceive. In fact, it was the saint who asked him to follow them to prevent accidents from happening. Look, the saint is a god who descended from heaven, and everything can be guessed by her. Powerful and domineering!
With Elder Wang as the backbone who acted according to orders, the shopping trip went much more smoothly for the two of them, and they also bought a lot of other snacks to take back.
By the time it was dinner time, Ruan Xianbei seemed to be in much higher spirits than the depressed Jiang Huai who had been opened up.
Ruan Xianbei didn't want to go downstairs to join in the fun, so Yun Zhi ordered the food and gave the boss a little extra silver, and asked someone to bring a big table into the room.
A table full of delicious dishes!
"Tomorrow is the martial arts meeting. Let's drink this and wish everyone good luck! All your wishes will come true!"
Ruan Xianbei stood up and picked up the cup. Seeing this, several people also picked up the cup. Jiang Huai was forced to pick up the cup under her threatening gaze.
The number one cheerleader, Elder Wang, stroked his unnecessary beard and laughed: "Since ancient times, heroes have been born young, I wish these young heroes a bright future!"
"The future is bright!"
"The future is bright!"
He Yu took Ruan Xianbei's arm and affectionately showed her the snacks he bought specially and what happened just now. Elder Wang took Jiang Huailin and Lin Yi and talked about the glory of his youth. He drank one glass after another, and Ruan Xianbei was eaten by Ruan Xianbei after three glasses of wine. The intimidating Jiang Huai, who had always been cautious, relaxed and was almost ready to bow down to Elder Wang with red eyes. The group of people made the fuss until He Yu's eyes were fighting, and Ruan Xianbei was afraid that they wouldn't be able to get up tomorrow and asked Yunzhi Yuncai to see them off.
…
On the other side, contrary to the excitement, was a courtyard on the mountain.
The door of the main house was closed, and there was a girl kneeling on the cold ground inside. Perhaps she had been kneeling for too long, and her face was a little pale, but her figure was still upright.
Sitting on the main seat was a woman who looked to be in her early thirties. Time had not left much trace on her face, but it only made her more attractive. When she was young, she should have been a stunning beauty that everyone wanted to follow.
"Junior sister, admit your mistake to Master." There was a girl standing next to the kneeling girl, looking at the stubborn look on the junior sister's face and coaxing her.
The girl raised her head. If He Yu were there, he would have recognized her. This cold face was the girl Lan Zhao he had seen today.
