Panting and weary, the young scholar ran with all his life. Tripped by a stone， he fell to the the ground. As he scrambled to his feet， the cold finger was touching his cheeks， which chilled him to the marrow....
A few hours ago，the young scholar found no place to shelter but an dingy and devastated temple named Lai Ruo. Having cleared up a place and nearly plunged into dreams, he was waken by a piece of melodious music floating in the air. Burning with curiosity and intoxicated by pleasant music, or maybe touched by nostalgia，he decided to trace it. Shoving open the door and striding along an narrow path through the dense forest which covered an eerie aura , the young scholar's mind was clouded with fear， but music allured him to keep going.
At the end of the path, there was a fantistic young lady standing in the shadow of a plum tree， silhouetted against the silvery moonlight. The moon craved on the star-strewn sky and the young lady stood on the emerald grassland, her whole body was bathed in the balmy air, her lips is as crimson as rose, her skin was as pure as snow.
What wild dream it is? Am I mad? If it is a dream, I will never want to wake up. Thought the young scholar, goggling at the beauty in front of him without a wink. The lady seemed noticed the present of someone and turned his head to look. As her stare met the scholar 's， the blood rushed to her face and made crimson clouds upon her upper cheeks. She lowered her arms and the petals in her hands were blowed n every directions. Some were resting on her pure white gown; some strewn the emerald lawn , just like starry sky; some were still floating in the air, among one of them was landing in scholar's stretching hand.
Suddenly, the young scholar felt a splitting pain in his chest. He lowered his head and behold a gnarled branch rippling off his chest and moving backwards rapidly. His face blanched at the sight of bloody heart held in the lady's hand.Then he uttered an ear-splitting screech.
Drenched with cold sweat，he sat bolt upright.
“Just a nightmare.”he muttered，rubbing his eyes and giving the whole room a glimpse.Suddenly, a blurred white arrested his attention and color drained out of his face. It is the lady.
