Chapter 188 The General's Dream

Chapter 188 The General's Dream
Sure enough, it is autumn in the capital, and there are piles of fallen leaves at the gate.

Some diligent people who got up early took advantage of the fact that there were not many people on the street, and took a bamboo broom to sweep the fallen leaves at the door into piles.

According to the regulations of the Yamen, people who live on the side of the street must at least ensure that the street in front of their house is clean and tidy.In reality, if it's an ordinary resident, the yamen doesn't necessarily embarrass you, but if it's a shop, the mess at the door will definitely be ordered to be cleaned up.Especially last night, the wind was strong, and countless dead leaves were blown down. At this time, the sound of sweeping the floor was all over the street, mixed with the speeches of small vendors. It was not noisy, but rather leisurely.

There is no reason for a general to sit in a sedan chair. General Chen came on horseback, followed by a few soldiers, all of whom were tall and tall. They were either skilled fighters killed in the army, or famous fighters in the Jianghu.

Walking to a place in the middle of Willow Street, I saw the "Dao" flag early on.

There is a shop sign that reads "Get rid of rats and worries".

The door has been opened, and there are still people sitting inside.

General Chen didn't rush in, but stood silently at the door, looking inside.

The houses on this street are all similar. The first floor looks like the shops opened by the famous fortune tellers in Dongcheng.

At this time, sitting inside was a woman with a child in her arms. She came early in the morning, presumably there was something important to do.

I only heard the voices of two people talking from inside:
"It should be due to the change of seasons, from hot to cold, but the clothes can't be adjusted, and the fever comes from the wind and cold. It's not evil spirits, nor ghosts, Madam should take the child to see a doctor."

"Fengchi? What should I do, sir?"

"I don't know any medical skills, so I don't dare to give any advice. I can only tell Madam that this is a disease, not an evil spirit. You don't need to spend money to find a folk gentleman. It is useless to ask gods and Buddhas. It is best to see a doctor."

"Sir, please take another look!"

"I can't do anything..."

"But how can we think highly of the doctor..."

"To the south of Changshou Street, there is a Jishi Hall. Doctor Chen in it once studied at Dr. Cai's office outside the city. His medical skills are excellent, his heart is even more kind, and he has a good reputation. I heard that he sits in the hall for free consultation every fifth or tenth day. Today happens to be the fifth day of August. Madam, if you want to go, you can go early."

"Is it really a free clinic?"

"Last month, an old man was seriously ill. He talked nonsense and often had hallucinations. He thought he was possessed by evil spirits. After he left here, he came back half a month later to thank him. It was said that Dr. Chen cured him. "

"That's great!"

"Go madam, there are many people late."

"How do you collect the money, sir?"

"Since there is no exorcism, no money will be collected."

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir..."

The woman almost kowtowed, and then hurried out with the child in her arms.

Just as General Chen was about to go in, he saw a figure appearing beside him.

He was a thin, middle-aged man who was carrying a burden. He should have come to the city to sell vegetables. After putting down the burden, he walked to the door of the Taoist priest. Instead of going in, he stopped at the door and said to the inside with a smile:
"Sir, there is a pile of leaves at the door, and the people from the county government will come to look for them in a while. There are few people at the moment, where is the broom, and the villain will sweep it for him."

The young Taoist inside smiled and shook his head:

"I took it with good intentions, don't bother with it, I will clean it by myself in the evening."

"The people patrolling the street will come later..."

"It's okay."

"Sir, you are really elegant."

The middle-aged man then sat back.

Looks like his stall is right at this door.

General Chen withdrew his gaze from him, and when he looked in again, he happened to meet the Taoist's eyes.

Song You smiled and nodded at him.

General Chen also bowed his head before stepping in.

Song You stood up slowly.

The two sides saluted.

Someone behind brought gifts.

"gentlemen."

General Chen said to him, "Long time no see."

"When a distinguished guest comes to the door, there is a long way to welcome him."

"Don't dare."

"Please sit down."

The two sat down at the table again.

"I wanted to visit you for a long time, but I had some concerns in my heart, so I never came." General Chen said, "I took the liberty of visiting today, I hope I didn't disturb you."

"I'm free every day, so I can't talk about disturbing you."

"I heard that Mr. has withdrawn the shop sign of 'exorcism and subduing demons', but I didn't expect so many people to come here because of the name."

"Poor people, there is no other way, they have to come, and I can't ignore it." The Taoist laughed, "But there are not many people, and occasionally receiving them will not delay leisure time, but will help practice."

"Did that one also receive the kindness of Mr.?"

General Chen looked back at the middle-aged vendor sitting at the door.

"That's not about kindness. It's just that these people who set up stalls at the entrance of the street have to rent some money to the owner of the shop." Song You said unhurriedly, "When I first came to Changjing, I didn't understand these things. , This small building was also transferred from someone else, so they never received the money. Later, they found out, but they didn’t accept it, so they donated a few vegetables grown by themselves and two eggs every month. Sometimes when I go out to buy and eat, and someone comes to look for it, they will help me to inform the guests."

"It turns out that you exchange your heart for your heart."

"The general speaking like this is not like the general Chen Ziyi I heard from the storyteller."

"Storytellers only tell what the world wants to hear." General Chen's expression was calm as usual, and then he smiled, "Since Mr. Chen doesn't like these things, then Chen will stop talking."

"Please drink tea, rough tea, don't be disgusted."

"Thank you."

"The general came so early, and he brought an important gift..." Song You glanced at the gift next to him, "I don't know what's important?"

"It's not a great gift, but it's just something I brought with me. It's not worth much money. It's just a courtesy and a show of respect." General Chen picked up his teacup, drank it in one gulp, and then continued, "But Chen Although I have already decided to pay a visit, but today I have something to ask for advice from Mr.

"please say."

"Sir, can you understand dreams?"

"don't know."

"don't know?"

"However, if the general is disturbed by the dream, and he can't find someone to tell the story in Changjing, he can tell the story to his subordinates."

"..."

General Chen had no choice but to bow to him.

His Majesty called him back to the capital for so long, and neither sent him to do anything, nor let him go back to the north, but let him stay in Changjing for use, I'm afraid he was a bit vigilant.General Chen is certainly frank, but as the saying goes, a husband and wife can do nothing but not make a dog stop barking. When he is in this position, he has to be careful with every word he says, and he can't say anything easily. .

Especially these mysterious and mysterious things.

If it gets out, there will always be people who are catching wind and shadow, and can make up many different versions.

The care and vigilance required in Changjing is no less than that in battle.

General Chen sighed:
"To be honest, since I returned to Beijing, I have been troubled by nightmares from time to time. The scenes in the dreams are similar. I have been wondering for a long time. I know that my husband is indifferent to fame and fortune, so I came to ask him for advice."

"Looking at the general's face, it doesn't look like he was disturbed by a nightmare."

"Chen once fought in the enemy's army for three days and three nights, and he fought for hundreds of miles without feeling tired." General Chen said calmly, "After the battle, he took off his armor, drank two jars of wine, and ate half a sheep. After sleeping for a day and a night, after waking up, everything went back to normal. A few nightmares, but only added some troubles."

"But by the Lanshui River?"

"Exactly."

"The general is brave." The Taoist couldn't help but cupped his hands, "I have heard this story from the storytellers. Some people said that the general was possessed by the golden spirit officer at that time."

"Rumours of the world."

"Haha." The Taoist laughed twice before turning the topic back, "How often does the general have nightmares?"

"In the beginning, I didn't have to do it every half a month. In summer, I had to do it every ten or eight days. Recently, I had to do it every three to five days."

"In this case, it is not like an ordinary dream."

"Chen also thinks so."

"I don't know what I dreamed about?"

"fire……"

General Chen frowned, and when he thought about it, he could not bear it: "The sky and the ground are full of fire, like in a huge furnace, many people are being burned inside, including my former subordinates and relatives. The soldiers waved to me and shouted for help. The people were different every time, but I knew the people every time. They had rushed by my side, and even blocked swords, arrows and stones for me..."

"There is no evil in the general." Song You said, "With the general's ability, most of the ordinary evil spells will not work, and the little demons and ghosts should not be able to get close to him. If someone casts a spell to send dreams and wants to harm the general, it will not harm him at all. Then, secondly, the general might be aware of it, and I always feel that it is not possible."

"Why is that?"

"..."

Song You thought for a while before saying, "With my superficial knowledge, I can only think of one possibility."

"Please teach me, sir!"

"The general is outstanding in martial arts. He has the ability to slay monsters and ghosts. His reputation spreads all over the country. Although he is a mortal, he has a sense of god." Song You said slowly, as if thinking while talking, "These soldiers I also have a deep friendship with the general, and the general also has a deep friendship with them, and I had a dream when I felt something."

"Is there such a thing as saying?"

"As the saying goes, you think about it every day and dream at night. It's not just generals who dream when they think about others. Sometimes when people think about generals, as long as they think deeply and have deep feelings, generals will also dream."

"..."

General Chen sat on the spot, but his eyes fluctuated violently, and he took a deep breath. If there was a kid here, he might be scared out of his wits.

"So what you mean, my subordinates may become ghosts after death, and they are suffering in a certain place? When they are suffering, they call me for help, hoping that I will save them. I have a feeling in the dark, so I do it." Had such a dream?"

"Although I have some understanding of dreams and the crude method of sending dreams, I really don't know how to interpret dreams. These are just my guesses."

"In the barbarian army in northern Saibei, there are often some strange people who play tricks." General Chen pondered, "Could it be that they imprisoned the souls of my soldiers with evil methods, and tortured them day and night for fun?"

"I don't know."

"Is there any other way, sir?"

"You can draw a talisman below, give it to the general, and put it under the pillow when you go back. If the general continues to dream after putting it on, it means that it is not another Taoist who deceived the general with the method of sending dreams."

"What if there is indeed a monster who confuses Chen with the method of sending dreams? Does Chen have a way to counter it?"

"Most of the demons have had contact with the general before, and they are not far away."

"Chen understands!" General Chen cupped his hands to express his thanks, paused, but then continued, "But if I continue to dream..."

"We have to find the souls of the soldiers and return them to peace." The Taoist paused for a while, although he didn't want to say it, but he met the general's eyes and said, "But I heard from the general that every time in the dream The soldiers are all different, but I don’t know... Has the general dreamed of the same soldier many times?”

"never had."

This sentence seems to make the temperature in the room drop a bit.

Song You also showed regret at the right time.
