C2 Dryness
"Where is this place?" I jumped up from the bed and saw a little girl in a Manchu dress sitting next to me, smiling.
"Feng Ling, you're finally awake!" The little girl laughed, "You are so unpromising. Your arm was branded with a mark, is there a need to faint?"
"Imprint?" I looked doubtfully at my left arm, which was wrapped in a white cloth and was still faintly hurting. "Who are you?" What did you just call me? "
"Aren't you called Feng Ling?" The little girl stroked my head, "I don't have a fever. How could I forget my name?" My name is Xiaoqing, and I live in the same room as you. "
"Feng Ling? You must be mistaken. "Hahaha!" I smiled at Xiaoqing.
"That's right, that's right. The mama who sent you here told me about it with the name list. Also, look at your arm and you'll know. Your name will be branded on it." This is proof of your identity! " After saying that, Xiaoqing came to remove the bandage on my arm.
"Ah, pain!" I cried. "What lunatic branded my name on his arm? No ID card? "
"What evidence?" Little Qing said, "The one who branded you was a mama from the top section." "They have to check that you are a virgin and have no illness before you are allowed to brand. Once you have the brand, you can learn the rules and learn the rules to serve the lord." Seeing me at a loss, Xiaoqing cried out, "Aiya, I can't explain why you want to faint. You'll know why if you don't. "Anyway, you've passed the first stage, now you just have to wait to learn the rules."
"Oh!" I was confused by Xiaoqing's words, so I got up and touched the bun on Xiaoqing's head. "Why are you combing such a headdress?" Is this a hospital? "Are you a nurse?"
"Oh my god!" Xiaoqing's face suddenly turned green, "Are you crazy? What are you talking about? This is Liushan, we're at the girl's place. Tomorrow, we'll start learning the rules. If you don't have a good brain, you better be careful not to go up! "
"What mountain?"
"Heaven's Altar!"
Wrong, everything was wrong!
I am Fan Ling, a post-80s girl. I'm supposed to be in the modern world, and I had a car accident. Logically speaking, I should be in a hospital bed when I wake up. How did I end up in such a strange place?
That little girl's clothes … Why is it a Qinggong costume, what the hell! I crawled over to the window and looked out. I was so scared that I almost peed my pants. Did I also get the lucky thing that all the little girls dreamed of — — "Transmigration"?
Even if I did transmigrate, other people would have to pass through into the palace, causing chaos within the palace. Yet, I ended up crossing into a mountain with a name I've never heard before. What is this mountain called?
"Mount Rushan is divided into three parts, the lower half mountain region, the upper half mountain region and the upper half mountain region. We are living in the lower half of the mountain region. " I recited it as I read the book. I wonder if those people who crossed over knew that they had to go to ancient times to study, and if they did, would they still try so hard to cross over?
"The closer you live to the top of the mountain, the higher your level. Old Mountain Lord is at the top. Those who lived in the upper half of the mountain were all adults and masters, while those who lived in the lower half were all servants. However, it's better for you servants to work hard and climb up, because after you pass the Zhongshan Monument, you can serve the lord and become a high class servant. "Damn it!" I cursed behind his back. That last sentence was said by the top servant who taught us some skills. It was obvious that he was one of those small fries that flattered and flattered others. Why did I have to serve the lord from above?
"Stop it!" Xiaoqing, who lives in the same room as me, said, "Once you get up there, there won't be any adults asking you to recite." "These are just some rules. After you learn them, you will know where to use your title and your pass!"
"Pass?" By the way, how does the pass work? " When I heard Xiaoqing talk about the usage of the pass, I suddenly realized that I couldn't remember how to use it, so I hurriedly searched for the "rule book" that wrote down the usage of the pass. Ai, why am I the same as those college students who are taking their final exams?
"This is what passes are for," Xiaoqing said to me. "We are still the lowest class of servants, living in the lower half of the mountain. On the mountainside was a monolith called the Zhongshan Monolith. With the Zhongshan Monolith as the starting point, there would be heavy soldiers guarding the area. People from the upper half of the mountain would not be able to get down, and people from the lower half would not be able to get in. Only if there is a pass issued in the name of the Old Mountain Lord. "
After listening to Xiaoqing's narration, I flipped through the contents of the pass. Xiaoqing could be considered a 'good student', and she had such a strong memory for 'knowledge'.
I asked Xiaoqing, "What about the boss who came up to deliver the food? What about the lower half of the mountain where the boss of the tailor shop would customize the clothes for the adults in the upper half, or where the owner of the pharmacy would deliver the herbs to the upper half of the mountain? "
Xiaoqing smiled at me and said, "You're really interesting. Are you going to deliver the food? Will you be a tailor measuring clothes? "Why do you care about other people's business?"
I scratched my head, blushing. "I'm just curious!"
"I have heard privately from the nanny who taught us that servants who transport food or cloth, who need to go up the mountain for a long time, will have their special pass granted by the Old Mountain Lord. For example, the boss of the tailor shop or the owner of the pharmacy, if there is a need from the management, they will send someone to make the arrangements down the mountain. "
"So troublesome!" I muttered, "Why are you making it so complicated? Do you need someone to do everything for you? Can't you just send someone to take care of it? " I thought of our kindergarten's logistics teacher. He would be able to take care of everything by himself, and the salary he gave me didn't seem to be that high.
"These people also want to eat," explained Xiaoqing, a good student. "If it wasn't for the Old Mountain Lord's kindness in keeping them alive, they wouldn't have been able to make it out alive. But you're right, this servant went down the mountain to give a notice, and then the bosses down the mountain issued a temporary pass up the mountain. However, the bosses did not think that they could be proud of just being able to occasionally enter the upper half of the mountain range. This was because they could once again meet the legendary Old Mountain Lord and the various masters. "Therefore, if we can be chosen to serve you, that would be a great honor!"
"Oh," I muttered, "why do you have to serve the Lord? I think it's good to live down the mountain! "
Little Qing was surprised. "You don't want to go up?"
I smiled and didn't answer.
"Do you know?" Xiaoqing looked at me mysteriously and said, "Why did Ye Wen continue to study the rules that day when he was ill?" Xiaoqing saw that I didn't pay much attention to her gossip, so she said, "Ye Wen has a personal relationship with Lord Luo of the Ironface Court …"
"What?" I was shocked. It has only been less than three months since we went up the mountain, yet there is already a girl having a relationship with the Master of 'above'?
