Chapter 207: Illusion Outside the Black City
The next day, I woke up early with Shengku, and Shengku combed my hair. I opened the window to my room. "With such good weather, if you don't go out, won't you live up to this beautiful summer scenery?"
I gave him a blank look, "Are you interested in the corner of the black city, or have you been there before, and now you want to visit the old place again?"
Sheng Ku suddenly looked at it with a complicated expression, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
I thought I'd provoke him to reveal a little bit of information to me. I'm not sure he's hiding anything from me in this black corner, though I just subconsciously think he should know about it. However, he chose to ignore it directly, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
So, the two of them began to be silent. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while. In the past, he would find a reason to change the topic at such a time, or prevaricate to look at the past, but recently he has been very abnormal.
"I, actually, I really want to go there and have a look...", I had no choice but to lower my posture.
"What's there to go there is probably just a dead city. After being popular, there will be a lot of strange stories. "Obviously, life is not a buy it.
I didn't coax people very much, and I had already given him enough steps just now, but I didn't expect him to have to make an inch. I glared at him, and my heart said not to pull down, you don't go, I'll go by myself!
snorted at him fiercely, and went out without looking back.
Actually, I'm a road idiot, but I remember first asking where the east gate was in the city. At the gate of the city, he inquired about the location of the mysterious East Mountain. But after leaving the city, I remembered that I was walking in the direction of Dongshan, but the more I walked, the more empty it became.
I looked around at the cobblestone ground in front of me, and for a moment I felt like crying. But at this moment, it seems that the bitterness really didn't follow.
Now the result seems to be that I have trapped myself. I wanted to go back, but it seemed to be much more difficult than going forward.
I couldn't help it, I sat on a big rock and rested. Suddenly, I heard the sound of running water. I was stunned. It was a big cobblestone field, and where could I hear the sound of water? But the sound grew clearer and clearer, even to my ears.
Suddenly, there was a lot of color in front of me, and I just felt top-heavy. My heart shook violently, and I said that I had accidentally fallen into a trick! Could it be that I had accidentally walked into an illusion?
But although his heart is clear, his body has no choice but to listen to his call, and he only feels that the red, green, and green in front of him are blurry. Then suddenly, the face of an elderly man seemed to appear in front of him.
His face was seren, not kind, but it gave people a sense of infinite love. He looked down at my face, then sat down next to me. "I wasn't supposed to come, but everything is predestined, and everything has a reincarnation. This is his life, and it is your life. I have taken you with me today, and if you get immortal fate with him, it will also be your creation. If not, I'm afraid that after several lifetimes of reincarnation, I won't repay your love and abuse. Do it yourself. ”
I'm a little weird. Because my position is like being in a hole in the ground, and from my angle, I can only see the old man's neck and chin. I seemed to understand what he said, and I didn't seem to understand it.
Suddenly, I saw his hand go straight down from the side of my body, and then it seemed to lift me out of a place that resembled a hole.
"Don't blame me, and don't hate me. "He slowly lifted me up in front of his eyes, and I just felt that he was a little familiar. But when I couldn't even think of where I had seen him for a while, it was suddenly pitch black in front of me, as if he had been put into a wide and soft place. I guess there might be sleeves.
When I opened my eyes, it seemed like I hadn't seen anything other than a puddle of the sky in front of me in a long time. I swayed gently, like a flower on a branch. After a long period of loneliness and loneliness, I longed for someone around me, even if he was not a person. As long as there is life, it can be anything, as long as it can accompany me...
Yes, I saw a figure in the distance, frightened and not wanting to approach at all. He just silently looked in my direction in the yellow sand. I wasn't sure, but I knew he was looking at me.
My soul seemed to be suddenly withdrawn from my body, and I just felt like my world was crumbling in an instant. Strange, why are the men around me crying when they can't see their facial features clearly? Why am I shrinking little by little, and even returning to the beginning?
I don't understand. These are all things that I don't understand.
Suddenly, what seemed to be a warm force began to pour into my body. I was like a ball, suddenly with more hands and feet. Then, the man who wept for me seemed to be dying. Suddenly two lines of tears were left on his cheeks, burning to the bone marrow.
I hugged the man and cried, but the scene around me was changing rapidly, and I actually saw the rooftops of the house and the woods of the valley there. The Buddha said that if you try to save him, you will die. I looked into the Buddha's eyes and nodded.
Suddenly there was a loud noise in my ears, and I was startled, everything in front of me began to fall apart, and even if I tried to hold them tight, I couldn't help it.
"Wake up!" I opened my eyes, realizing that the sun was still shining, and I rubbed my eyes, which were fragile from the bright light, and sat up.
"Your eldest lady's temper is really amazing, I didn't see it at a glance, you actually came here!" This is the voice of bitterness, although he is crouching in the backlight of the sun, I can't see his face clearly, but his voice I can never hear wrong.
I struggled to my feet, and was still angry with him, so I was going to ignore him. I didn't know if it was a dream or a hallucination that made my head dizzy, and I really didn't have the energy to talk to him.
He also seemed to see that something was wrong with me, so he squatted down in front of me without saying a word. I was stunned, "What are you doing?"
Sheng Ku pointed to his back, "You seem to be very tired, I'll carry you back!"
I really wanted to reject him, but my body was really weak. After a series of psychological struggles with myself, I lay on his stomach softly. He walked silently behind my back for a while, and then seemed to feel a little embarrassed by such a quiet, and began to find me a topic.
"Why did you just sleep on the rocks?
"No, I don't know what's going on!
"Hallucinations?" Sheng Ku stopped and turned to me to ask.
I nodded, but didn't tell him exactly what I saw. It's not because I'm keeping an eye on him, it's really what I see, and I'm a little inexplicable now.
"Where are we going now?" I watched as mountains slowly appeared around me, and suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here today.
I was stunned for a moment, as if I didn't expect me to say this, "Go back to the inn! You just looked very weak, I think you shouldn't have recovered well, you should rest more." ”
But I struggled down from his back, "I don't! I'm going to go to Dongshan and see that black corner!"
Sheng Ku looked at me dotingly, very helpless. "Why are you suddenly like a child?
I leaned close to his ear and said with great firmness, "Because you want to go, that's where you lead me to!" I just hate the way you are! I'm not honest at all! Sometimes when I feel close to you, you push me away, and I don't know what's going on in your heart. That's what makes me angry. It's very angry!
Anyway, I don't care, I'm going to go and see what's so special about that black city today! Why do you get so entangled?"
In the process of my anger, Sheng Ku still quietly watched me go crazy, and didn't even say a word to refute. It wasn't until I finally stopped growling that he smiled and walked in the opposite direction.
I was stunned, "What do you mean by that?"
He said bitterly but without looking back, "Heichengyu, don't you want to go?
I stomped my foot, for I could not help but feel chagrin at hearing the satisfaction of the conspiracy in his tone. I'm really a fool, I know that this is a good trap he laid for me, and I have to fall down desperately.
Sheng Ku was walking in front, and he was not walking fast, obviously waiting for me. So, I followed him slowly. Along the way, the two of them didn't actually speak. I wasn't in the mood to look at the scenery around me, and I just held a breath on top of my head until I suddenly broke my foot, and the breath finally turned into pain.
Sheng Ku hurriedly turned around, but there was something flashing in his eyes, shiny.
"Look at you, you've only walked so many steps before you stumble again. Why don't we go today?" his tone was so tender that I even forgot for a moment that I was still messing around with him. But immediately, my sanity returned, for I clearly saw a large black mountain appear not far behind the bitter life. I slowly straightened up with my shoulders on my shoulders, and suddenly I had a strange and subtle feeling in my heart about the mountain.
It is said to be black all over because the trunks and leaves of the trees on this mountain are a color that tends to be dark gray. This side is the shady side of the whole mountain, and there is little direct sunlight, so the scenery on the mountain is more like ink that has turned into a piece.
"Higashiyama?" I muttered.
"Higashiyama. Sheng Ku nodded.
"You've been here before?"
"I've been here. ”
The two of us walked slowly to the bottom of the mountain, and a mountain breeze instantly mixed with the smell of rotting leaves blew into my nostrils. I looked at the bitter expression, and saw that his eyes were filled with something similar to excitement. This puzzled me, but when I looked closely, it dawned on me.
It turns out that that kind of thing is happiness.
