Chapter 42 Travel
Master's voice finally woke me up from the dream, and when I opened my eyes in confusion, fragments of broken memories seemed to be floating in front of my eyes.
Memory fragments, four words that were originally so abstract, are now so real and broken before our eyes. Even if we are awake, we can see them scattered. This abstract experience cannot be explained in detail to others, including Master.
My soul has now gotten rid of that severe pain, but just like after a strong severe pain, there will always be some faint throbbing pain left, which makes me uncomfortable from time to time.
But compared with the intense pain before coma, this small throbbing pain from time to time is already considered a blessing.
My consciousness gradually began to wake up. At this time, I thought that what I saw was an illusion, so I was stupid. This should be Dao Tongzi's memory. Why is his memory always accompanied by those eyes?
The master is the woman named Wei Chaoyu?
Did he intentionally let me see this memory? Or did it mean something else? And where was the place in the dream? The legendary fairyland?
I can't understand these things, so I simply don't think about them. This life has been full of troubles, and now I'm even more embarrassed. Who has the heart to care about things in the past life? Besides, Master and I are also involved in the most mundane problem - money.
There was a musty smell coming from the tip of my nose. What I saw at this time was Master's concerned face, and the surrounding dusty background. The sunlight shone in slantingly, and I could still see the dust in the sunlight.

"Master, where are we?" I spoke. At least I could think and speak. I was sending a message to Master that I am fine now.
"What happened just now?" Master didn't ask me if I was okay now? Instead, he asked me what happened just now. It was obvious that he had received the message I conveyed. This was a tacit understanding and no need for lengthy explanations.
"It would be great if I could know? It should be the sequelae of every time Tao Tongzi appears?" In fact, I am not sure about this statement. The last time I was at the deep pool, at least it was not because of Tao Tongzi's appearance, but because
I think of Ruxue.
When I mentioned Ruxue, I was in a daze again. Even the master couldn't help sighing next to me and deliberately ignored it. I heard what the master was saying. This matter must be treated well. I'm afraid I have to discuss it with Uncle Chen, but I couldn't help it for a long time.
No answer.
With a 'pop', the master hit me on the head again as usual, which made me wake up from my trance. The master held the dry cigarette with no leaves in his mouth, looked at me worriedly and reproachfully, and asked: "What are you doing?"
If you don't worry about your own problem, what are you thinking about?"
"I didn't feel that my will in the previous life was in any danger. I don't think I'm worried." I didn't answer Master what I was thinking, but said this sentence very directly. This is indeed what I felt in my heart.
When Master heard what I said, his eyes flickered and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he said to me: "I don't know whether we are lucky or unlucky? Haven't you noticed? This is a mistake."
An empty room with no one in it.”
"Ah?" I couldn't help but exclaimed softly, but in this era, it is normal for such vacant houses to appear in rural areas. How many people go out to work, or even the whole family goes out to work? Not to mention such a remote place.
The place, depending on the terrain, is not very suitable for farming.
The reason why I whispered was not because there was no one in the house, but because after traveling in the mountains for so long, I really missed a hot meal and hot dishes. In addition, I wanted to take good care of myself. It was difficult to ask for help, and I might even be rejected.
, but if there is no one, wouldn’t it all be in vain? Master and I still have to make do with it.
"I was disappointed at first, but at that time I couldn't care less about your condition, and my face turned pale from the pain. However, later on, your breathing and pulse gradually stabilized, and I knew that you were fine, so I
After rummaging around for a while, I felt that the owner of this house must have left his family not long ago. Although there is nothing valuable in the house, there are some things that we need urgently." Master is not worried.
Xu said.
I laughed bitterly, this was really embarrassing. Master and I broke into other people's houses, and then took other people's things when they were not at home. This is actually the behavior of a 'thief'. This Yang Sheng
Are we forced to change from Taoist priests to thieves?
While he was talking, the master had already taken out two sets of men's clothes that were a bit damp and old and outdated and put them in front of me. He then said: "There are still some firewood piled in the firewood shed. It's getting damp. Let's try to think of a solution."
Can you boil some hot water? But it will have to be later, or at least let me see Yang Sheng’s car pass by here."
This is indeed what we urgently need. Take a bath and change clothes. The clothes Master found must belong to the male owner of the family. And I also understand what Master said. It probably means that Yang Sheng's car has gone elsewhere.
I'm going back to pass by here, just in case, it's better not to make any noise now.
Naturally, I agreed with Master, and I noticed that there was a bed made under me. I don’t know if Master found the sheets and quilt covers and made them for me.
I was too lazy to think about how Master came into this deserted house. The severe pain in my soul was replaced by the exhaustion of my soul. This exhaustion soon made me fall into a deep sleep.
————————————————Dividing line————————————————
At 10 o'clock in the morning the next day, Master and I left the empty room with no one around. We had already shaved our beards. We found a knife in the room and sharpened it.
Got a few bloody wounds.
After using up several large pots of hot water, I was finally cleaned. The clothes I was wearing were the clothes left by the male owner of the family. I could only make do with them. In short, I wore sleeves.
Short, the pants are short, and they look a bit baggy when worn on Master.
Fortunately, we are just like villagers in a remote rural area. I rolled up the cuffs of my trouser legs, which made it okay.
We took turns sleeping yesterday in order to observe whether Yang Sheng and his party were deliberately looking for us in this generation. We found that this was indeed the case. In short, the car would appear every few hours, and the time was not fixed.
To be on the safe side, Master and I deliberately chose to set off more than half an hour after their car had left. This time period was considered safe.
We walked onto the road from the depression, and then the two of us walked side by side on the side of the road. This road is relatively remote, and there are really not many vehicles. My master and I planned to stop the car and leave here, so we could only walk while walking.
Wait, if we are really unlucky and don't see the car for a long time, we have to estimate the time to go up the mountain to hide in case we encounter Yang Sheng's car again.
Could it be any harder? But that's just the worst case scenario. Although this road is remote, it won't be without traffic for several hours. We just tried our best to include all small probability events.
"Master, do you think that when the family comes back, they will see our message and care about what we left behind? They probably won't believe in the value of the medicinal powder, right?" Walking on the road was boring, and I was very hungry.
In order to divert my attention, I casually chatted with Master about this.
"In short, when we take other people's things, use other people's things, and live in other people's houses, we have planted a cause of debt. Regardless of whether we pay it back or not, the effect is so small that others don't even care. We
It is still necessary to end the consequences. Just like water droplets converging to form a river, a person should not be entangled with too many causes and effects. Sometimes many small causes and effects will converge into a big entanglement and the impact will be far away." Master put his hands behind his back and walked in front of him.
The tone beside me was also light.
Yes, when we left, Master left the snake medicine that Xiao Ding gave us in the empty room where there was no one, and left a few words with burnt firewood on the floor of the conspicuous room, roughly clarifying the situation.
, and then explained what thing was left behind and what its use was.
I naturally agree with Master's statement. I also strongly believe that small causes and effects converge into big entanglements. That's why the ancients said: Don't do evil for small things, and don't feel that you owe others a penny. Not a penny is called a debt.
, some causes and effects in the world are related to human relationships, which cannot be tempered by oneself, while some evil causes and consequences are really unnecessary. Only correcting one's own body is the best way.
We walked along talking like this, and unknowingly we had walked for more than twenty minutes. We didn't meet the car, but we were already extremely hungry. Plus yesterday, we almost didn't eat for almost a day.
I swallowed my saliva and said to the master: "Now I think it's good to have two yuan with me. I can buy four big steamed buns so that I can eat enough."
"When you have no money, a penny is a luxury. You still want two yuan?" the master said angrily.
"If it really doesn't work, we have to go back to the mountain and catch another rabbit or something to eat. But I hope I haven't starved to death before I catch the rabbit." My steps became heavy because of hunger.
