Chapter 129 The Dream of the Red Mansion 1
Chapter 129 The Dream of the Red Mansion 1
This time, the world Tao Shuobai is in is "Dream of Red Mansions".
As soon as I arrived at this small world, a notification sound came from the copper mirror: Please pay attention to the staff, because of the frame of this small world, there are not only ordinary people, but also immortals. There is a certain degree of danger. alert.
Tao Shuobai had just glanced at the introduction to the original book before, but he also understood that the so-called immortals refer to the first-rate phantom fairies, like Jiangzhu Fairy and others, who cast themselves into mortal wombs to repay their favor, but they are weaker existences than ordinary men, and they are active in the world The main thing is one monk and one monk.
Tao Shuobai saw what these two people did, and he didn't like it in his heart.Monks can be merciful, and practitioners can be indifferent to the world of mortals, but their behavior is full of contradictions.Zhen Yinglian and Lin Daiyu, one of them said that people would suffer disaster, the other said that people would not live long, and opened their mouths to become a monk. When Xue Baochai fell ill, they didn't mention these things. They gave gold locks and gave prescriptions, completely opposite actions. frowning.To put it bluntly, the two of them followed the orders of Fairy Jing Huan throughout the whole process, but Fairy Jing Huan was in charge of Nie Hai Qing Tian, and a group of fairy sisters who came down to earth were not as important as Jia Baoyu.
He thought at the time, why do women have to suffer when they go down to earth?The waiter of Shenying wants to enjoy the world of mortals?
He thought of Junshi again. In fact, the reincarnation of Shenying's waiter into Jia Baoyu is somewhat similar to Junshi's reincarnation. Junshi is to heal his wounds and deal with calamity and cut through the demons, but Shenying's waiter is only greedy for the prosperity of the world.In fact, it is nothing, the immortal is beyond the world of mortals, thousands of years are like a day, he will be lonely, envious of the world of mortals, it is nothing to go down to the world to travel for a lifetime, he can have fun, and drag a bunch of fairies to accompany him for a lifetime of love, resentment and hatred , Even if they return to their respective positions later, it really has no effect?
Tao Shuobai looked around, it happened to be spring, and the peach and apricots were fragrant. This place happened to be by the river, with green hills and seas of flowers on the bank, full of the excitement of spring.You can faintly see the city tower in front of you, and when you gather your eyes, you can see three words on the tower: Yangzhou City!
Suddenly the wind picked up, and the spring rain began to fall.
Tao Shuobai didn't have an umbrella, and it seemed strange to go into the city with a big thorn in the rain. He rummaged through the storage bag and found a brocade cape with a hood.This brocade cloak is a cassock, a gift from previous purchases. It is not of high quality, but it is enough to keep out the rain.
After entering the city, he walked to Xunyan Yushi's yamen following the imperceptible abnormal breath.
At this time, the sky was getting darker and gloomy, and there was a group of black clouds gathered in the sky above the yamen, hovering continuously, and there were more and more, but because the whole sky was dark, there were no pedestrians on the street, and no one noticed.The wind gradually became stronger, and the rain became more urgent. It seemed that there was still thunder coming from the depths of the clouds, which made people panic.
Now Lin Ruhai is the censor who inspects salt in Yangzhou. When it comes to Lin Ruhai, everyone is emotional.
Lin Ruhai's ancestor was a hereditary marquis, so he could be called the family of Zhongming Dingshi. Later, due to the single inheritance of several generations, the number of Lin family was thin, and the titles had come to an end, so it gradually became less prominent.Unexpectedly, Lin Ruhai was first selected as Tanhua, and later promoted to the doctor of Lantai Temple, and then appointed to the post of Yangzhou patrol salt censor. Lin Ruhai is [-] this year, and he is still very young to be a second-rank official in the officialdom of.
The government of salt is the most important thing in finances, and Lin Ruhai, who holds such an important position, is undoubtedly the emperor's confidant.
Lin Ruhai was able to do this because firstly, he had the ability, and secondly, he could not do without the support of the Yue family.It is said that there are people in the court who are good at being officials. If they are only talented and have no one to manage them, they will have no way to show their face in front of the emperor.Lin Ruhai's Yue family was the Duke Rong's mansion among the four kings and eight princes. He married Jia Min, the daughter of Duke Rong. With this relationship, and because he was originally from a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River, it was more convenient in the official circle.
However, there is an old saying that "whatever is gained is bound to be lost", he is proud of his officialdom, his husband and wife are loving and harmonious, but he is born in desolation.So far he has only one daughter born to his first wife, whose baby name is Daiyu, and she is six years old.There was also a son who died when he was three years old, which also caused his first wife to suffer from the root cause of the disease. The pain was too great, and she had been bedridden with the disease for more than half a year. She had invited famous doctors from the south of the Yangtze River, but they all said it was incurable.
Lin Ruhai was originally handling official business in the front office, but today's sudden weather made him feel a little bit out of his mind.
"Master, it's not good, Madam has vomited blood." The butler, Uncle Fu, came in to report, with a sad expression on his face: "Doctor Xu said that Madam is already..."
Lin Ruhai's complexion changed abruptly. Even though he was prepared, at this moment he was still like a thunderclap.
"Master, you have to hold on, Madam wants to see you." Uncle Fu understood that at this moment, Jia Min might have to confess his last words.
Lin Ruhai stumbled towards the inner house, and when he reached the second gate, Uncle Fu couldn't enter, and Nanny Zhang was waiting for him.
The south of the Yangtze River is exquisite and beautiful, and the buildings are also quiet and elegant. It’s just that on such a windy and rainy day, the vegetation is swaying wildly with the wind, and the place is dark and gloomy. There is a dull thunder after another, and the mistress is seriously ill. Everyone’s mood is like this weather. , gloomy.
Jia Min was ill for more than half a year and took medicine all day long. The room was filled with the smell of medicine, and there was even more hopelessness and despair.
As soon as Lin Ruhai arrived at the door, he heard soft cries coming from inside, intermittent and heartbreaking.Knowing that it was Daiyu, he quickened his pace again.Daiyu has been weak since she was a child, and she has almost never stopped her medicine. Now she is so sad, she may not be able to bear it.
In the outer room stood a young man in a blue robe, at most 25 years old, gentle and elegant, with a beautiful scenery.This person is Xu Yan, regardless of his young age, he is a well-known master in the south of the Yangtze River, Lin Ruhai just invited him to diagnose and treat Jia Min and drag Jia Min so far.
"Doctor Xu?" Lin Ruhai called out.
Xu Yan loosened his frowning eyebrows, and said apologetically, "Master Lin, I have little talent and learning, and I can't do anything about your wife's illness. Your wife seems to have something to say, but she just couldn't hold back and fainted. If Lord Lin agrees, I can do nothing about it." She can delay for another moment by doing the needle for her."
Hearing this, Lin Ruhai, a big man, suddenly had red eyes, clenched his fists, and held back his grief.
"Doctor Xu please do it."
Xu Yan injected the needle and withdrew, saying: "Wait a while and she will wake up."
At this moment, Tao Shuobai, who was standing outside the yamen, intercepted a strand of her soul.
When the thunder struck nine times, a ghost suddenly appeared in the deserted place.This woman has an outstanding appearance and a soft charm, she looks like a daughter of a family, a rich woman, but she is full of resentment, crying silently, but tears of blood are dripping from her eyes.
Tao Shuobai was startled, not to mention that in the blink of an eye, the ghost would be thrown into the inner house of the yamen like lightning, and there was no more breath.
He hastened to calculate, and vaguely glimpsed some clues.
That ghost is Jia Min.
Jia Min knew she was dead, but she did not disappear, and the ghost stayed in Lin's house.I was very happy when I saw that Mother Jia sent someone to pick up her daughter Daiyu. After all, although Lin Ruhai loves Daiyu, he is busy with work and the officialdom in the south of the Yangtze River is not stable. Besides, Daiyu is still young. Elders teach.Although Jia's family is not as good as before, at least they have the title of duke, and Jia's mother is also the wife of a duke, so she will never treat her grandchildren harshly.
Unexpectedly, she followed all the way to Beijing because she was worried, and witnessed Daiyu's situation in Jia's house, and her heart was about to break.
She had thought that living here would be a bit unpleasant, but Daiyu didn't need to cost the Jia family a penny for food and clothing. When Lin Ruhai died, she even prepared a sum of money for the Jia family to return to the state treasury, just for the Jia family to treat Daiyu kindly.Who would have thought that someone would leave the tea cold, and in the end not only the originally agreed upon marriage would be voided, but Daiyu would not even be left with a way out.
Jia Min was full of resentment and hatred, she hated herself even more, if she hadn't died, Daiyu wouldn't be so pitiful, and she blamed Lin Ruhai for being confused and trusting people easily, but that was her mother's family.Lin Ruhai respected her, his father, and his mother, and that's why he trusted the Jia family. Who knew...
Opening her eyes again, she saw the little Daiyu next to the bed, Lin Ruhai who was suffering and haggard, as if in a dream.
"Min'er..." Lin Ruhai got carried away with emotion for a moment, and called out his private nickname.
"Master, I, am I dreaming?" Jia Min was in a daze, unable to distinguish reality from dreams, but instinctively reached out and grabbed Daiyu, tears rolling down: "My Yu'er, my miserable Yu'er."
"Amitabha——" In the quiet deep house, a Buddha's chant suddenly came.
Lin Ruhai was startled.
But Juan Bi, Jia Min's eldest maid, said outside: "Master, a monk and a Taoist priest came to the house suddenly."
One monk together?
Lin Ruhai felt familiar in a trance, and suddenly thought of Daiyu when she saw Daiyu.I remember when Daiyu was seriously ill when she was three years old, a monk Laitou came to the family, a poor Taoist, who wanted Hua Daiyu to become a monk, and said some crazy things, and he was kicked out in a fit of anger.
"Go and tell Uncle Fu to send some fast food away." Lin Ruhai didn't care about foreign affairs at the moment, after all, Jia Min's time was running out.
Jia Min suddenly frowned, her already thin and pale complexion turned even paler: "My head hurts, master, drive the monk out quickly, he's making me a headache because of his loud chanting."
Lin Ruhai was puzzled, he didn't hear any other sound except the first Buddha's call, but seeing Jia Min was so uncomfortable, he could only go out to chase away people.After leaving the door, a group of monks broke into the courtyard, a monk with scars on his head, and a Taoist with legs, all of them looked sloppy.Lin Ruhai noticed that the Laitou monk was standing with his palms folded, his eyes lowered, his lips moving constantly, thinking of Jia Min's words, he guessed that the monk was chanting scriptures.
Lin Ruhai was very angry: "Come here, arrest these two people!"
Pozu Taoist sighed: "Stupid! Stupid! We are here to help, the one inside is no longer your wife, don't stop her, if you leave her, you will suffer disaster."
"There's no reason for that!" Although Lin Ruhai has been in the officialdom for a long time, after all he passed the imperial examination, he still has the nature of a scholar, one of which is that he doesn't believe in strange powers and gods.Especially when the other party slandered Jia Min and said some lies, which reminded him of what happened three years ago, it was simply abhorrent!
After all, this is a yamen, Lin Ruhai was very annoyed, at the command, the soldiers and guards rushed in, and the monks and priests were about to be chained with long spears.But the monk and Taoist swayed slightly, broke free from the chain, and rushed towards the house.
Tao Shuobai suddenly frowned.
Just now there was a strong emotion coming, it was anger and pleading, this emotion was first transmitted to the flowers and trees, the plants fell to the ground, and seemed to be whimpering as they swayed, he was extremely sensitive to the smell of plants and trees, so he felt it naturally.He could even hear the little girl's cry, with faint aura fluctuations, rippling from somewhere in the inner house, which made the grass and trees feel sad.
He knew that the voice came from Lin Daiyu, the daughter of the Lin family, the reincarnation of Fairy Crimson Pearl.
Tao Shuobai jumped into the inner house, only a white shadow flashed across the Lin family, and then screams came from inside the house.
Lin Ruhai was holding Jia Min in his arms, embracing Daiyu, trying his best to prevent the monks from hurting them.But the monk was chanting scriptures all the time, Jia Min was in unbearable pain, everyone who Uncle Fu called in was played around by the Taoist priest, Lin Ruhai was in pain and anxious.Just as he thought he was in a desperate situation, a person appeared suddenly, holding a soft long whip that seemed to be shining with gold in his hand, and whipped it towards the monk.
"You, who are you?!" The monk and the Taoist didn't pay attention to it at first, but when the whip hit their bodies, they suddenly felt burning pain, and their expressions changed dramatically.
These two people are not monks in the ordinary world, they are cultivators of immortals, immortals who seem to be invisible in the ordinary world, but in fact they have not formed alchemy yet, they are just two servants of Fairy Jinghuan.Tao Shuobai uses a soul-binding rope, which can punish ghosts and ghosts, and injecting mana can also act on the soul of a cultivator.
The monk and Dao received dozens of lashes in the blink of an eye, not only was his soul burning, but he was in danger of losing his soul.
"Let's go!" The two looked at each other, and at the same time their bodies froze, a golden light struck, and the bodies of the two immediately melted and turned into dots, and there were no traces in a flash.
Tao Shuobai withdrew the soul-binding rope, which was a pity.
Unexpectedly, these two people's cultivation bases are not very good, but they have such a life-saving hole card, so they let them escape without noticing.Those two people suffered serious injuries, if there is no panacea to help them, it may be difficult to heal their injuries for decades.For a cultivator, injuries to the physical body are the best to heal, but the soul is very delicate. A little trauma may bring endless regrets, so one can imagine the situation of monks and Taoists.
Only then did Lin Ruhai see clearly that the white-clothed man standing in the room was elegant and distinguished, seemingly untouched by the world.
"Thank you for saving my life, my lord!" It was the little Daiyu who spoke first.Although she was terribly afraid before, she felt inexplicably close to Tao Shuobai, and she didn't feel scary.
Tao Shuobai looked at her, for a six-year-old, she was too petite and thin, her small face was not as big as a palm, she looked like she was sick.However, it is worthy of being the reincarnation of Jiangzhu, with parents like Lin Ruhai and Jia Min, not to mention their appearance, but their charm is light and agile, and their temperament is calmer for a six-year-old child.
"Give this pill to the respected lady." Tao Shuobai took out a pill for nourishing the spirit, the monk Laitou saw that Jia Min's soul was different, and was afraid that it would affect Daiyu's life, so he tried to drive away Jia Min's soul.Jia Min had just been reborn, and her soul was unstable. To her, those scriptures were like a hammer beating her head desperately, but they were actually attacking her soul.The nourishing pill is very good for nourishing the soul.
Lin Ruhai hesitated for a moment, and stretched out his hand to take it, but he didn't dare to subdue it to Jia Min immediately: "I don't know what to call your son?"
After experiencing the scene just now, Lin Ruhai was horrified, after all, it was no longer the means of ordinary people.
"Tao Shuobai." Tao Shuobai understood his solemnity and confusion, and explained: "Don't worry, Mrs. Zun is still herself, but it's just that the gate of hell has been closed and turned around. Now it's a blessing in disguise, and she survived the catastrophe. The pair of monks say goodbye. It’s just that I don’t want Mrs. Zun to live. I don’t need to say more about monks and Taoists. If you just send people to visit Jinling, you will definitely get something.”
"You said my wife won't die?" Lin Ruhai was surprised and delighted, but he couldn't believe it. But when he went to see Jia Min, he did find that although Jia Min's complexion was bad, it was obviously better than before.Before Xu Yan said that it could only be delayed for a moment, the quarter of an hour had already passed.
"The calamity of death is over, but this disease still needs to be cured." Tao Shuobai looked at Daiyu again, took out a small jade bottle the size of a palm, and handed it to her: "This is flower dew, you sleep every day. Take a sip first, don't drink too much."
Daiyu took it, thanked her very sensiblely, and stared at the bottle curiously, if she hadn't been concerned about etiquette, she would have opened it a long time ago.
"It's okay to take a sip now." Tao Shuobai could guess that she was inherently weak, and she had been crying sadly for many days, her body was exhausted, and her small body could no longer hold on.In the original book, after Jia Min's death, Daiyu should have been ill.
Daiyu looked at Lin Ruhai and asked, "Daddy?"
After thinking about it, Lin Ruhai fed Jia Min the Nourishing Pill in his hand, and nodded to Daiyu.It's not that he trusts the person who appeared out of the blue, but that the other party is unfathomable. If he really has malicious intentions, he doesn't have to make such a big circle.
After taking the Yangshen Pill, Jia Min calmed down, gradually became sleepy, and finally fell asleep, with a slight blush on her originally pale face.
Daiyu opened the emerald bottle, and a fresh and elegant fragrance wafted out, like the fragrance of lotus.She obeyed the instructions, took a sip, and felt a coolness in her mouth, and instantly a warmth swept over her whole body, her eyelids became heavy, and she hiccuped uncontrollably, and she didn't know anything when she tilted her body.
"Yu'er!" Lin Ruhai was startled.
Tao Shuo caught her with a quick eye, put the jade bottle on the table, and said, "She's fine. She's not in good health, and her vital energy is seriously depleted. If you don't take care of it carefully, it will make her foundation worse." Although this flower dew cannot cure her disease, it is very beneficial to her body."
Flower dew is the dew on the collected lotus, with some aura.
Lin Ruhai sorted out his thoughts, took Daiyu over, and respected Tao Shuobai's words: "Young Master Tao, thank you for saving me today, if you don't mind, please stay at the house, Lin has something to ask."
Tao Shuo agreed.
Uncle Fu immediately tidied up an independent small courtyard, arranged it properly, and assigned a few clever maids to take care of it.Tao Shuobai saw that although the maids knew the rules, they couldn't restrain their curiosity, they always looked at him quietly, and began to think about whether to ask Uncle Mu and others to come out to help.
On the other side, Lin Ruhai arranged for Daiyu and invited Xu Yan to feel the pulse of his wife and daughter.
Xu Yan is famous at a young age, and he is good at gynecology. It is a strange thing to say. After all, men and women are different in today's world. Even if a woman sees a doctor, she will find some old and experienced doctors. First, she is more at ease, and second. Avoid gossip.Xu Yan was influenced by his family since he was a child, and he likes medicine. He has dabbled in various subjects, and he is the best in gynecology.When he was not famous, no one came to see him, so he traveled abroad. There were always those who were poor and could not see a doctor. It took six or seven years to slowly accumulate reputation, so a medical clinic in Yangzhou invited him to sit in, and he stayed temporarily. It's been a year or two now.
Ever since Jia Min's condition worsened, Xu Yan has been staying at Lin's house for two months.
Before there was movement in the inner house, Xu Yan didn't know about it. He was holding a book of medicinal herbs and was fascinated by it.It wasn't until someone came to invite him that he realized that time had passed. He thought that Jia Min was dying, and he wanted to get a pulse?Realizing that something was wrong, he walked quickly.
Xu Yan is confident in his medical skills, not to mention Jia Min's situation, if anyone who is not a quack doctor can diagnose that his life is exhausted, how could it be...
Dang personally inspected Jia Min's complexion, and carefully checked the pulse, he said: "Mrs. Zun is still seriously ill, but there is vitality in her body, and the medicine I mentioned earlier can be used."
Originally, he studied a prescription for Jia Min's condition, but Jia Min's body was too weak to bear the properties of the medicine, and his vitality disappeared too quickly, so he couldn't support him at all.Therefore, I could only treat conservatively and survive the day.
Lin Ruhai's heart hanging in the air finally fell to the ground: "Thank you, Doctor Xu. By the way, please ask Doctor Xu to visit my little girl again."
Xu Yan took Daiyu's pulse again, frowning.
"How?" Lin Ruhai asked inwardly.
"I thought Qianjin would be ruined due to excessive pain, but now it looks much better than expected. What has she eaten?" Xu Yan felt a little abnormal when he felt the pulse, as if some medicine was acting on Daiyu's body , I was afraid it was an illusion, so I asked this question.
In comparison, Lin Ruhai naturally trusted Xu Yan, and when he asked him, he told the story of Tao Shuobai, and of course, concealed the matter of monkhood.Lin Ruhai knew that Xu Yan was obsessed with medical skills, and wanted to use Xu Yan to find out about that mysterious Mr. Peach.But today's matter of monks and Taoism, after all, involves Jia Min. He doesn't want to stir up rumors, and has already let out rumors that monks and Taoism are liars. .In this way, even if the real inside story comes out one day, it will be hard for outsiders to believe it.
Sure enough, Xu Yan became very interested in Tao Shuobai, so he immediately went to visit him.
"Master Peach, Doctor Xu is here to visit."
When Tao Shuobai looked out, he saw a tall and straight man with a handsome face coming in. He presumably was the doctor Xu Yan who was resident in the Lin family.He could see clearly that Xu Yan seemed gentle, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was just an appearance, and the other person's eyes were calm and unwavering, like a dark deep pool, there was no smile at all.
When Xu Yan saw Tao Shuobai standing at the door, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Young Master Tao, I'm Xu Yan."
