In the early morning, before dawn, Bailian tiptoed out of bed. She had extremely strong control over her body. Although she looked soft and frail, her muscles and bones were stronger than most people. If she didn't want to make a sound, it must be It landed silently, softer than a kitten.
Wang Xiaotai had been sleeping lightly these days, but yesterday she rarely slept deeply. She didn't want to wake her up.
"Are you going to dance practice?"
After tiptoeing again, Wang Xiaotai was still woken up. Bailian took a deep breath and secretly admired Wang Xiaotai's vigilance. She turned her head and faced Wang Xiaotai, who had wide eyes and was not sleepy. "I'm sorry, Xiaotai, for waking you up." ”
Wang Xiaotai sat up. She slept next to Bai Lian much better than before, but she still slept lightly. She would wake up on her own in two or three hours. Wang Xiaotai couldn't control it. Fortunately, she didn't have any nightmares. When she closed her eyes, it was real. Real sleep.
"It's so dark, I'll go with you."
The dance troupe was walking all the way towards Mount Tai. They were already halfway through the journey. The nanny who taught them said that they would be able to see Mount Tai in a few days. There were clouds and mist on Mount Tai. Once they climbed up Mount Tai and climbed to the highest point of the Heavenly Stairs, there were two A big drum, beat that drum, the gods will look back and avenge you.
Similar operations can also be found in the human world. Under the emperor's feet, he can listen to drums, beat drums to complain about grievances, and complain about injustices. The drums in heaven can be heard by heaven, where he can complain about all kinds of injustices caused by fairies, demons, and monsters. In addition, the grudges in the past life You can also express your grievances, and the revenge of ten generations can still be avenged.
There is no difference between heaven and earth, but the evil and terror of heaven's criminals cannot be compared to ordinary mortals.
The Tiangu on Mount Tai is the end of Wang Xiaotai's journey.
The dance troupe is already moving as fast as a mortal can, and it also has to take into account practicing dance and performing dances for surrounding believers. Wang Xiaotai is quite content with Bai Lian, and Bai Lian invites her to stay in the dance troupe with her. , when the Heavenly Court dealt with the matter in Qiantang, they would go to various places to perform dances together, so that more people could see their dance and see their devotion to the Queen of Heaven.
"The Queen of Heaven is so efficacious, have you ever seen the Queen of Heaven?" Wang Xiaotai once asked Bailian.
Bai Lian shook her head. The Great Merciful and Great Forgiving God, the Supreme Qingling Yuanjun, the Heavenly Queen. There are so many people in need of her help, all living beings in the land of Kyushu. Although she has never seen the Heavenly Queen, the Heavenly Queen saved her. Naturally she should return the favor.
"She rescued you?" Where to start? Wang Xiaotai was confused. Since she had never seen it, how could she save him?
"One time I had a high fever. Everyone thought I was going to die. The nuns in the temple had already prepared the coffin for me. My whole body was so hot that my hands and feet were swollen. I ate everything I could. I also asked a witch to exorcise evil spirits and drank two kilograms of talisman water, but I still didn’t feel better. I felt that my time was running out, but I really didn’t want to die, so I hid it from everyone and sneaked into the sky at night. In the harem, I spent the whole night worshiping the Queen of Heaven."
"That night I knelt for a long time and said a lot of words to the Queen of Heaven. Now I don't even remember what I said." Bailian smiled, showing a nostalgic look, "I still don't want to give in. Damn it, I haven’t done anything yet.”
"Then I fell into a drowsy sleep. When I woke up, the fever had subsided." Bai Lian clasped her hands together and worshiped again and again to the statue of the Queen of Heaven placed on the bedside. "It's all because the Queen of Heaven took pity on me and gave me I have a chance to survive, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see me."
Wang Xiaotai also put her hands together and knelt down with Bailian to worship the Queen of Heaven. These days, she also followed Bailian to worship the Queen of Heaven. Now she gets up in the morning, prays to the wooden statue that Changsheng gave her, and then worships to the Queen of Heaven with Bailian.
She didn't have to believe in anything, she just had no choice but to believe in whatever was useful. She just hoped that the gods would see her as pious and allow her to get what she wanted, to avenge her parents and 600,000 people. Other than that, she had no other choice. What you want.
After worshiping the gods together, Bailian took Wang Xiaotai's hand, and the two girls went to find a place to practice dancing together.
Along the way, the dance troupe usually rested in sparsely populated places. Wang Xiaotai didn't know where they got this confidence that they would not encounter bandits, but it was true that no one had ever come to harass them. When people encountered the dance troupe, they just put their hands together. , bending their backs, not daring to look directly at the girls in the dance troupe. At this time, the girls will subconsciously straighten their backs and pass these admiring eyes with dignity. They are not only them, but also the Queen of Heaven. Representative of the human world.
After walking out of the tent, the moon was still hanging high on the branches, and everything was silent, just like the day Bai Lian first met Wang Xiao Tai.
Bai Lian practiced dancing very hard. She would get up before dawn to practice, and she would dance until she was sweating profusely before going back to sleep at night. Dancing was the only thing in her life. She practiced for many years, just to bloom at that moment.
In the dense valley not far away, what was more conspicuous than the moonlight was a darkly glowing flowing river. Bai Lian and Wang Xiao Tai looked at each other and ran over together.
When I looked closer, I realized that it was not a river, but a torch. Miners with dark skin and unclear faces were lined up like black ants. Each of them was carrying a backpack bigger than them, holding a torch. , marching hard in this valley.
The miners' vision was blurred after a tired night. They had not slept all night and were exhausted.
Is it going to be dawn?
Will you be able to rest soon?
When will these days end?
The steps of one person in the team became staggering and bumped into the person in front, causing more people to stagger.
The leader of the man immediately realized that he only had one hand holding the ore on his back and could not turn back at all. Once this situation was out of control, a group of people would definitely fall, and once this breath was released, there would be no way to lift it up again. Woke up.
We are about to reach rock bottom, don’t be discouraged!
He gritted his teeth and encouraged loudly. The responses were few and very messy, and the footsteps behind him were even more messy. After working all night, everyone had used up all their strength.
We are about to reach rock bottom, don’t be discouraged!
If you fall down at this time, you will definitely be injured. If you are injured, then the night's work will be in vain, and this life will be in vain!
Although this life is hard, it is still hard to live. As long as you are alive, it is always good.
The man gritted his teeth, widened his eyes, and roared out a chant with a simple melody. When he usually sang these chants, there would always be people laughing and loudly echoing his singing, but when he heard the sound he made, The sound made him despair.
The trumpet is never effective just by shouting loudly.
The chant should be calm and steady.
There were rocks and sand rolling down from the feet, which showed that everyone's steps were still chaotic. If the steps were steady, the rocks would not be stepped down.
There were more and more random footsteps, and the mountain road seemed to be shaking.
It's over, it's over.
The man looked at the valley bottom close at hand, feeling desperate.
God, save us! Let's go home!
Bailian asked Wang Xiaotai to sit aside, and she tied up the sleeves of her dance skirt, changing the wide sleeves into narrow sleeves. She let out a loud shout towards the valley, and jumped down from the high mountain rocks. .
Danger! Wang Xiaotai subconsciously gave her a sigh of relief.
