In the eyes of many people, dreams are illusory and absurd. If a dream can become reality, it will no longer be a dream. So, can what we saw in the dream appear again in reality?

In the eyes of many people, dreams are illusory and absurd. If a dream can become a reality, it will no longer be a dream.

So, can what we saw in the dream appear again in reality? Regarding this question, the answer may be found in an ancient book from the Qing Dynasty that still exists.

It is said that during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Song Zheng, a native of Yutian, Zhili, passed the Jinshi examination. Unfortunately, he was convicted for something and was sent to Yili, .

After all the hard work and almost death several times, he finally reached his place. But he was surprised to find that in this barren and cold land, there was a Guansheng Temple.

If you see a saint, you must worship him. Song Zheng straightened his clothes and hurried over. When I arrived at the temple gate, I saw an old man standing on the steps.

This old man has a good appearance, with silver hair all over his head and a rosy face. He is not bent at the waist or hunched over. He is an amiable and amiable person who is getting stronger with age.

Song Zheng is a scholar, how could he not respect the elderly, so he bowed his hands to the old man and asked him to give way so that he could enter the hall to worship "Guan Bodhisattva".

The old man returned the gift and asked with a smile: "Old friend, don't you know me?"

Song Zheng couldn't help being stunned when he heard this. He clearly had never met the old man, so why did the old man call him "an old friend"? Proportional? Could it be that his old eyesight is dim and he recognized the wrong person?

Seeing Song Zheng's confused face, the old man chuckled, and then told Song Zheng's origin, background, family background, relatives, etc., all accurately. Song Zheng was shocked and dumbfounded, and he became even more confused about who the old man standing in front of him was.

The old man had already seen Song Zheng's thoughts, so he asked, "Is Tian Guorong coming? He really should come."

Song Zheng was even more surprised when he said this. Tian Guorong is his servant and loyal to his master. This time when Yili was issued, Tian Guorong never gave up and followed voluntarily. It was a pity that this loyal servant fell ill during the journey and was unable to continue the journey. He had to temporarily stay at a farmhouse to recuperate. As soon as his condition improved, he immediately set off to accompany his master. It is still unclear whether Tian Guorong's condition has improved. This old man can actually name Tian Guorong, so he must be no ordinary person. Could it be that it is the incarnation of Guan Bodhisattva?

Since he is a god, he should worship him. Pushing the golden mountain and overturning the jade pillar, Song Zheng lifted his robe and knelt down, saying: "The gods are above, please accept Song's three worships." After saying this, he kowtowed three times.

"Wrong, wrong." The old man hurriedly helped him with his hands, "How can I be a god? I am a mortal body just like you. You don't need to worship me."

Song Zheng was puzzled. Since I am not a god, How could you know everything about him? Could it be that he is not a fairy, but a fairy? It doesn't seem to be the case. This is Guan Bodhisattva's territory. Which monster has the courage to act recklessly here unless he doesn't want to live anymore.

Seeing the uneasy look on Song Zheng's face, the old man helped him feel relieved: "Old friend, don't worry, don't be frightened. My surname is Qin and my name is Fang. The reason why I call you my old friend is because of a dream. ."

"A dream?" Song Zheng was even more puzzled. He quickly asked the old man what kind of dream it was.

Qin Fang smiled and said: "Speaking of this dream, it's a child without a mother, so it's a long story. My old friend, please come to my place, so that you and I can talk over a drink. Wouldn't it be wonderful? ”

Song Zheng had just arrived and was looking for a backer. After hearing what the old man said, he agreed casually without thinking. Immediately, the two of them came to Qin Fang's residence holding hands and shoulder to shoulder, just like a pair of close friends who had not seen each other for many years.

points The guests and hosts took their seats, and after being polite for a while, they raised their wine glasses, toasted to each other, and got back to business.

Song Zheng learned from Qin Fang that Qin Fang worked in the capital in the past and was very successful in his official career. However, the officialdom was treacherous and bad luck was quietly approaching him step by step.

On New Year's Eve, he drank a few more drinks because he was in a good mood. Drunkness helps you fall asleep and drift into dreamland. He saw the wolf-like officer locking the chain around his neck, dragging him like a dead dog, and throwing him into a cage that would never see the light of day.

saw again that he was suspended in the air. Several shirtless men tortured him like menaces. Sitting aside, an ugly man who looked like a judge suddenly threw a token to the ground and shouted loudly: "Send this thief named Qin to Yili as a hard labor!"

In the blink of an eye, relatives and friends appeared. The scene of seeing him off with tears. Immediately afterwards, the lush greenery disappeared in an instant, turning into a terrifying sight of jagged rocks and yellow sand filling the sky. Unfortunately, he was alone, with unkempt hair and ragged clothes, struggling to stagger in the vast sea of ​​sand.

Just when he was exhausted and dying, a Guansheng Temple suddenly appeared in front of him. On the altar table, there were fresh fruits and fine wine, as if there was an invisible hand calling him.

He struggled to get up, plunged into the hall, grabbed the fresh fruit, and was about to eat it when he suddenly woke up. The sunlight penetrated the window lattice paper and splashed on the floor tiles, and it was clear that it was already bright. Although it is a dream, it makes people break out in a cold sweat.

While he was still thinking about the scene in his dream, the juniors came to pay him New Year's greetings one after another. He was very happy on the surface, but still felt uneasy in his heart.

Amid bursts of laughter, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month arrived in the blink of an eye. But the images in the dream are as if they are burned into my mind and are difficult to erase. During this period, he would always dream of the same scene. Waking up from dreams again and again, sweating through the clothes again and again, how can this feeling make people feel good? His wife advised him to find an expert to help him "interpret his dreams", but he waved his hand and refused, adhering to the motto "It is a blessing, not a curse, and a disaster cannot be avoided" and waited for disaster to come.

As expected. A few days later, a group of officials swarmed into his house, locked him up with chains, threw him into prison, tortured him severely, and finally sentenced him to be sent to Yili for hard labor. Isn’t all this exactly what I saw in my dream?

Song Zheng was extremely surprised when he heard what Qin Fang said. There was cold sweat on his forehead, and he wiped it with his sleeves from time to time.

Qin Fang also said that the reason why he waited for his old friend in front of Guansheng Temple was because he was acting on a dream, but he didn't expect that he would actually wait.

Song Zheng quickly asked Qin Fang to tell him what was going on?

Qin Fang said that she had seen Song Zheng many times in her dreams, and every time the two met, they were outside the Guansheng Temple. As for how he knew everything about Song Zheng, Song Zheng himself told him in his dream.

In the dream, after he met Song Zheng, the two drank and talked like they did today. Since we are both fallen people at the end of the world, how can we hide anything, so we open our hearts to each other and tell each other about the past. In this way, he knew everything about Song Zheng.

After listening to what Qin Fang said, Song Zheng suddenly realized. It turns out that there is a clever arrangement somewhere. What happened at this moment had already been previewed in the dream. It's a pity that Song Zheng never dreamed that he could meet Qin Fang in a bitter and cold place thousands of miles away, nor did he dream of what his future would be like. To say that Qin Fang has special powers would be an understatement.

From then on, these "old friends" who met for the first time in the real world became inseparable, as if they were the same person, and neither one could live without the other.

Characters of the Late Qing Dynasty

One autumn night two years later, Qin Fang suddenly sat up, held Song Zheng's hand excitedly, and said, "Congratulations, brother!"

"I really can't understand what Brother Qin said. "Song Zheng rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked confusedly: "Where does my brother's happiness come from?"

"I'm dreaming again." Qin Fang cried because of being too excited, "I dreamed that your old mother was because of you. I miss you and sit in front of the door crying all day long. But you suddenly appeared in front of the old man and called me mother. Then the mother and son held their heads and cried, expressing the pain of separation. Amnesty, so I wish to congratulate you for my brother's sake." After hearing this, Song Zheng cried with joy. After crying, he held Qin Fang's hand tightly and said, "We brothers can finally be reunited with our families. I want to invite Brother Qin to stay at my house for a few days. Let's drink for three days and three nights without getting drunk." Then he started crying again.

“Alas——” Qin Fang smiled bitterly and shook her head, “I appreciate my brother’s kindness.This time, my brother's name was not included in the amnesty. In fact, I have already seen my destiny in my dream. I am destined to die here and will never be able to leave here. Please take care of yourself, brother. "

To make a long story short. The facts are exactly as Qin Fang said. Song Zheng was pardoned by the Holy Grace and returned home, reunited with his parents, wife and children. And Qin Fang's fate was also the same as what he saw in his dream. In the end, he died in a foreign land, with his bones buried in the yellow sand. After all, the fallen leaves cannot return to their roots.

The fate of the late Qing Dynasty characters is so tragic. Even if you have the ability to predict the future, what can you do?
