The water flowed "gushingly", pouring down from a big hole in the clouds. It flowed through an incomplete mountain range and poured into the world. With a pair of young eyes, he saw the place where the water had left. He stood
From a very top place, he watched the water level slowly rise, submerging the stalls on the street. He watched the people on the road waving their hands for help. Slowly, the water reached their necks and submerged them.
In his head, he could no longer see humans, only the constant "thumping, flopping" in the water, like the sound of people slapping the water; slowly, they made no sound anymore, the water continued to rise, and they were submerged.
The leaves on the roadside of the house they lived in fell down, and after a while, the leaves were gone...
The water continued to rise, covering the short mountains around him. Those young eyes were a little sad, and their vision was slowly blurred. Tears fell, and the vision became clearer... Suddenly, those eyes could not see.
After cleaning the things, I felt a pair of warm hands covering it. All my little eyes saw was darkness. There was a strange fragrance floating around, a refreshing smell. My little eyes stopped struggling. Someone behind him gently patted his back with his hands.
, the voice was exceptionally gentle: "Be good, don't be afraid, the master is here."
The hand covering his eyes was soaked with tears, and his tender voice finally gave some comfort: "Master, Master..."
"Hey, Master is here. We don't want to see this, we don't want to see it."
His little eyes felt a little dizzy, and the master's words drifted farther and farther away, but the master's hand was still hugging him gently.
…
The scripture book in his hand slipped, Xie Liangchen's "tiger body" was shaken, and he almost fell off the desk. He quickly picked up the book and looked around, like a little mouse trying to steal lamp oil, and finally saw the front
Beside the stone couch, there were a few small lamps that flickered on and off. A person on the couch, lightly wrapped in red clothes, looked charming in the dim light.
Xie Liangchen breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, the master was sleeping and didn't see that he was lazy, otherwise he would be punished by sitting on the arrow stand again...
Thinking of the table covered with sharp arrows and shimmering with cold air, Xie Liangchen shuddered three times and gently touched his tender buttocks.
Xie Liangchen flipped through the scriptures in his hands randomly and muttered: "What is the Tao? It is not the Tao! What is the best thing like water! What is the best thing about living in a good place and having a good heart? It's all nonsense! Nonsense! Those old men with white beards are just talking.
I know that writing these unfounded truths makes things difficult for young people like us, and what's the use of memorizing it every day? Don't you have to practice step by step by yourself?!"
Xie Liangchen was still complaining. Just before he was about to tear up the book angrily, a cool voice floated over: "Liangchen, to what chapter have you recited the Tao Te Ching?"
A chill ran down Xie Liangchen's spine, as if he felt a cold sword pressing against his neck, and cold sweat broke out all over his body.
I heard Xiang Liu from Houshan say that his master is the Chidai Goddess in the sky, a very cold-blooded and ruthless god...
Master...could he have heard what he just said...
"Why don't you speak?" The voice came a little closer, and he took Xie Liangchen into his arms with a single movement of his hands: "Master, did I hear you studying just now?"
Xie Liangchen stared at the master's beautiful eyes for a few seconds, then crawled out of the master's arms with a chuckle, and sat upright: "I can carry it, I can carry it."
Fortunately, he has a good skill of photographic memory, otherwise he would have to see the arrow stand today...
Chiyo lifted up his long sleeves, lay down on the rocks nearby, supported his head, and smiled evilly: "Go ahead."
"The Tao can be explained, but it is not Tao. The name can be named, but it is not named. The beginning of the nameless heaven and earth; the mother of all things with a name. Therefore, it is always non-existent, and I want to see its wonder; it is always there, and I want to see its beauty..." Xie Liangchen shook him.
The little head carried on his back solemnly: "So, a real man should live in the thick of things and not in the weak. He should live in truth and not in the splendor..."
"Okay." Chiyo waved his hand to interrupt the young apprentice who was memorizing the book seriously like a little old man: "You've memorized it well. You can rest for an hour."
After hearing Qianyo's words, Xie Liangchen wanted to throw the book away, but with his master there, he didn't dare to make a mistake. He respectfully put the book on the stone table and rubbed it into Qianyo's arms, his voice aggrieved like a kitten.
: "Master..."
Chiyo touched his head, not as harshly as asking him to endorse: "Did you have another nightmare?"
Every time he had a nightmare, he would always crawl into his arms, feeling aggrieved like a good woman who had been bullied.
"Yeah." Xie Liangchen nodded with his head buried in Qianyo's arms.
Chiyo sighed, he was five hundred years old, why was he still burrowing into her arms like a child?
As in a dream, Chiyo gently hugged him with one hand and rubbed his little head with the other. His voice was extremely gentle: "Good boy, that was a dream. Don't be afraid anymore, eh?"
The little head in my arms nodded again.
"Okay, tomorrow master will take you down the mountain to play in the human world..."
Before Chiyo could finish speaking, the little head in his arms suddenly popped out, very happy: "Okay, okay, master hasn't taken me down the mountain for a long time."
Chiyo showed a loving smile: "Good boy, now go and do your homework for tomorrow."
As soon as Qianyo finished speaking, Xie Liangchen was like a thunderbolt, and he almost burst into tears...
Seeing Chiyo walk out of the cave with his hands behind his back, his soft and waxy face wrinkled into a ball... 嘤嘤嘤! Master, how could you do this!
