Bystander

My name is Chuyao, and I am a "living" dead person, without a beating heart and warm blood, but I can jump, eat, sleep, and get sick and injured like a normal person. The difference is that I neither grow old nor die.I don't know why I became like this, but when I woke up that morning, everything was like this. I don't remember the past, I don't remember my family, even the name "Chuyao" was given by a little Taoist priest.The little Taoist said to me, I got the opportunity of heaven and earth, jumped out of the six realms of samsara, not among the five elements, not a fairy, not a demon, not a demon, I can't see the past, I can't figure out the future, and because I messed up the order of the world, Every Jiazi month will cause cold all over the body, and the medicine and stone will not work.What the little Taoist said really scared me, I asked him if there was any way to save me, the little Taoist looked around, picked a mimosa and handed it to me, saying that if I want to spend this month safely, I need Before the arrival of the Jiazi month, I collected my tears from love, and dripped the collected tears on this mimosa plant when the Jiazi month was full, so that the mimosa was stained with my breath in order to hide it from the world and be punished on my behalf. .

I held the mimosa in my hand and pursed my mouth, "Why is it a mimosa and not an orchid?"

The little Taoist smiled, "You can't stand up to orchids."

Time flies, and I ushered in the Jiazi month after I became a "living dead". Since the beginning of the month, I have been very tired, my hands and feet are often cold, and I feel drowsy. Fortunately, my little gourd has already been filled Tears, when the moon was full, poured on the mimosa that I carried with me. I saw a thin layer of frost gradually condensed on the leaves of the mimosa. At this time, my body gradually felt warm. In half an hour, I already felt like I was born again, full of energy.I poked the leaves of the mimosa with my fingers, watched the veins slowly gather and said, "Thanks to you, I'm much better now, thank you for your hard work."

Another year has slipped away, and my little gourd is still empty.Think about the tears used in the first Jiazi month were all self-pity and self-pity. I would cry when I saw other people’s fathers and sons being filial, I would cry when I saw other people’s friends in groups, and I would cry when I saw other people’s families playing and fighting. There was a period of time I will be afraid to go to crowded places, afraid that I will appear particularly lonely and out of place. After a long time, I seem to be used to being alone, a person who has no past and carefree, lonely and pitiful. I didn't shed a tear because of my life experience, it's not that I don't feel sad, but I can't cry anymore.This kind of situation made me more and more anxious and at a loss as to how to get through Jiazi month without tears. I left the hut in the forest where I had lived for four years and went down the mountain to find a way to make me cry.

Unfortunately, as soon as I went down the mountain, I was sold into the local big family Liu Yuanwai's house as a servant because I had no money to eat a king's meal. Think about how I said it was born by chance~ "Monster", that's it It's ridiculous to serve tea and water to the old man and his wife after becoming a servant. How could I do such a job, and it's my turn to do such a job?In fact, I can’t even see Mrs. Madam’s face. It is said that my life in the Liu Mansion is not as comfortable as the dog in Mrs. Madam’s arms. I wake up earlier than the chicken every day, sleep later than the dog, carry water, wash clothes, cook, God, if it weren't for the fact that I was already "dead", I might die eight hundred times.

It was dark that day, and I checked to see if the candles in the mansion were extinguished as usual, and when I was about to go back to my room to sleep, I saw a figure in the backyard sobbing softly against the wall, and I subconsciously called out, "Who? Who? Where?" Before I lift the lamp to see who that person is, don't pull over and beat him, I curl up on the ground without any resistance, I swear at that moment I thought of the little Taoist priest, and regretted not being able to talk to him Learned two self-defense skills, now I really want to kill this guy with a knife, my mother's strength is quite strong.The servants in the courtyard heard the sound, and came with a lantern and a stick. I lay on the ground, vaguely saw the fire in front of me, and thought I was saved, but for a long time everyone stepped forward to stop this man's atrocities until he The strength of kicking me was getting weaker and weaker, and he didn't give up until he was exhausted. The man straightened his sleeves, fixed his crown and said, "This man dared to sneak attack me, dragged her to the woodshed, and starved her for two days."

I'm going to fuck you, it's obvious that the villain complained first. I wanted to refute him, but it hurt so much that I couldn't even breathe. What's more, the servants locked me in the firewood room without giving me any water. , I was already bruised and scarred, and the water and rice did not enter, it was really a loss of my immortal body.In the middle of the night, the big sister, the cook in the same room, secretly brought me a steamed bun. The big sister said that the lady in the house picks it very well. The steamed bun was stolen by someone who dropped it on the ground and was going to feed the horses. She told me to eat it quickly. After being discovered, he hurried back to the room.Looking at the back of the elder sister, I was speechless, and I was very grateful, "Eldest sister, it would be even better if you could bring me a bowl of water." Gotta die, saved my stomach after all.

Relying on a steamed bun given by my elder sister, I struggled through two days. When the new round of sun illuminated the woodshed, I felt that I had been sublimated. Another day passed like this.At night, I couldn't stand it any longer. If I didn't give me any more saliva, I would turn into a mummy. I secretly opened the door of the firewood room, but it was unlocked?I sneaked into the backyard with ease, took advantage of the moonlight to slowly fetch a bucket of well water, drank it for a long time, and satiated first.Just as I was leaning against the well platform and gasping for breath, a voice sounded from behind me, "Yo, it's getting better quickly? No wonder you can be a human being because you have rough skin and thick flesh." Immediately, my hairs stood on end, and I turned around , isn't this the fucking person who beat me up two days ago?I have no strength to restrain the chicken, so walking is the best policy. Before I can get up, I was lifted to the side by the collar. It was punching and kicking, and when I was beaten half to death, this beast picked me up and turned right and left into a small medicine shed, still on the ground, I don’t know what he was doing , A few minutes later, he squatted in front of me with a bowl of medicinal mud.He squeezed my chin to look left and right, then squeezed my arm and said, "You are quite resistant to beating, but you don't have any scars on your face, so why are you pretending, I thought you were the one just now It looks like I'm going to die!" Well, is this blaming me?God knows how much pain I have, it's all internal injuries, internal injuries, and I don't have blood, how can I bleed and bruise?I don't even know what material my current body is made of, it's my fault.

The man stood up, threw the bowl on the table casually, and said, "You are also unlucky. Whenever I meet you, I am in a bad mood." He stared at me for a long time and then said, "Two days ago Liu Ann redeemed herself, and I happen to be short of someone by my side, so you can take care of me.” I lay down on the ground and looked up at him, with an expression that seemed to say “I don’t want to thank you.” Sure enough, there was no one or two beatings, only zero and countless times, "I don't want to."

"Do you still not know who I am?" "So, whether I like it or not, in the end I became his personal sandbag, and it was only when he brought me to register with the housekeeper the next day that he found out that he was the young master of the Liu residence—Liu Xunyan.In the following days, I was trembling, for fear that he would beat me violently if he was unhappy, but Liu Xunyan seemed to be a very good-tempered person. Sometimes I broke the tea bowl, stained his calligraphy and painting, dropped his inkstone, etc. because of my clumsy hands. Wait, etc., I didn’t suffer from any aunt, he is also very gentle to the servants in the family, sometimes he will take me to wait on him when he goes to the poetry meeting, just when I look at him with admiration, I almost forget that he is a violent person When he was mad, reality dealt another fatal blow.

It was the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Liu Mansion was busy all day, and the dinner was full of delicacies from mountains and seas. The masters, wives, young masters and ladies of the Liu Mansion gathered around a large table, and I waited beside the young master as usual, looking at me at that table The dishes that you can't smell normally make your mouth water.

"Ma'am, what are you doing with a dog when the family is eating?" Mr. Liu said in a slightly dissatisfied tone.

The eldest lady stroked the dog's hair a few times and said, "People are not as good as dogs. After a long time, dogs know who treats them well, but people are not familiar with them." The eldest lady was very angry, and the master just frowned and said nothing more. , but the young master dropped the food on the table, the young master took back the chopsticks in embarrassment and put them on the plate in front of him, and kept silent. The lowly seed was lifted up by me, but I still didn't feel grateful, so I asked, do you think it's hard for you to be a mother?" The lady handed the words to the young master, and everyone put down their chopsticks and remained silent when they saw this scene. I saw the young master straightened his back and nodded, "Mother, you are magnanimous." The eldest lady seemed to have received a satisfactory answer and put the dog in her arms on the ground. The lady picked up the chopsticks, "Why don't you eat it? Eat, don't let the cook in our mansion think about it, it's a wolf or a dog, and you have to feed it when you are in the mansion." After all, take care of yourself He started to eat, the face of the old man on the side turned blue but he didn't say anything, the meal broke up unhappy.

After dinner, the young master said that he still had homework to do, so he went back first. I followed him and trotted all the way to the medicine house. Seeing that his face was livid, I didn't dare to follow him too closely, and stood outside the door and waited. .Suddenly, I was dragged into the room by the collar.
