Section 190 Stone Ancient City (3)

We tossed and turned for a long time, and when we came out of the catacomb, it was already dark outside, and before we knew it, night had quietly come.

We stood in the ruins of the empty and desolate Stone Town, and on it we could overlook the Alar grass beach on the Tashkurgan River under the high ridge, and faintly see the rolling red Khunjeraphada in the distance, the Ming Tie Gaidaban, the Wakhkirida Banshan, and the Pamir Plateau in the distance.

The night sky is blurry and dreamy, the distant dai looms, the stars flickered brightly and dimly, the lights in the distance are hazy, the poplar forest is full of shadows, staring at the blurred and deep night sky with stars, suddenly mixed feelings, the vicissitudes of history and the unpredictable sense of time and space suddenly come to mind, people are insignificant, involuntarily nostalgic for the past, thinking about the present, it is really as the poem said that the ancients have not been seen before, and the people who have not come have come after them.

Thinking of the world of leisurely, alone and weeping up, how many once born dragons and tigers, the enthusiastic ancients have now quietly disappeared, yesterday was so laughter, the busy stone city is now a ruin, only these immortal stones witness the splendor and glory of the past, what remains unchanged is the time and space itself, the changing is the endless people, how many of our ancestors, lively and lively came to the hustle and bustle of the world, after a life of wind and fire, it will return to the dead silence, vanished, ashes disappeared, and there is no trace, just like never came to this vast world, quietly left the world, and we will follow in their footstepsWalking into the eternal cold and cold grave, I can no longer perceive this beautiful world, and the sun rises as usual, the moon rises as usual, life is still endless, brilliant, and no one who is alive cares too much about our departure, and slowly we, the inconsequential ordinary people, will forever and silently disappear from people's memory.

Walking on the bluestone pavement of the ancient mottled and uneven stone town, I can't help but think of the sound and smile of my relatives in the distance, they are in another time and space, but well, I can't help but think of where the old people are, some quietly go away, some disappear, everything has changed dramatically with time, only the ruins of this stone town are still the same, the bluestone is the same, although the vicissitudes of life, the world changes, fortunately, there are always some things that remain the same, such as eternal love.

In the past, all kinds of smoke and fog of the past, instantly became extraordinarily clear, vivid, more than I thought about the past carefree, happy and happy time to return, the past years of the past like a mirror flowers and water moon suddenly appeared in front of my eyes like yesterday, like a flowing year, like a piece of falling flowers floating on the boundless ocean, helplessly swept away by the ruthless time.

There are no immortal people and cities in this world, only starry sky, moonlit nights, stones, and deserts, which are eternal and immortal.

Time is like a merciless river, taking away the green years of the past, and is sweeping the glorious time of the present, which will continue to engulf the flickering and dark days of the future, and in the end everything ceases to exist, and in the end, only time itself remains.

I was concentrating on thinking about it, when I suddenly heard the sound of small footsteps below, and when I looked closely, it turned out that a large group of black-clothed people were outflanking from all directions of Stone Town from all directions at the bottom of the mountain.

Their sudden appearance seriously disturbed our journey, what should we do, the men in black who were quick-eyed, apparently had also spotted us, and they quickened their pace, striding up the steps, shouting, "Where are you going? Now that you have no way out, you should obediently tie your hands and arrest us, and save a lot of trouble." ”
