"That's right, women are weak, mothers are strong, try to ask what mother in the world can see others hurting their children and not protect them? Zhou Yueran is manslaughter in the process of protecting her own children, she has been imprisoned, and she has accepted all the punishments she should accept. But such a kind and brave mother, who will go if she doesn't go to Leqiu?" Li Bai didn't want to be able to persuade Gao Changxi for a while, he was ready to stalk, so without waiting for Gao Changxi to answer, Li Bai chattered endlessly, and Gao Changxi couldn't resist it after a while.

"Mr. Li Bai, don't embarrass Mr. Gao. Zhou Yueran, who was completely ignored on the side, couldn't bear to be embarrassed by Gao Changxi.

"Don't be embarrassed...... So be it, it's still the old rule. Li Bai took out a "Kaiping Tongbao" of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms from Gao Changxi's bookcase, "If you throw it on the side with words, you will give it a pass, and if you don't have a word, we will automatically give it up." This is a gentleman's game, and it is difficult to chase after a horse. ”

"Again?" Gao Changxi was a little devastated.

Li Bai did not allow him to refuse, and decisively threw the coin. The coin tumbled in the air and landed on the table, fluttering a few times. It's the wordless side.

Li Bai immediately snatched back the coin: "Two wins in three games." ”

Gao Changxi watched Li Bai's performance with tears and laughter, fortunately he threw two heads as he wished, otherwise he would have been "three wins in five games", "four wins in seven games" and "six wins in ten games...... Until he won, Gao Changxi shook his head, he knew that as long as he didn't let go, Li Bai would keep entangled: "Deacon Bai, the deepest road in the world is your routine." ”

Gao Changxi took out a piece of cake from the refrigerator and handed it to Zhou Yueran, the size of the cake was just one bite, but it was so delicate that it was unbearable to eat.

"What a beautiful cake, this can't be the legendary Meng Po soup, right?" Zhou Yueran had a whim.

Li Bai didn't know when he was already standing in front of the refrigerator, he opened the refrigerator as if no one was around, took out the cake, and ate two in one bite, Gao Changxi hurriedly ran over, closed the refrigerator door and said: "Deacon Bai, I beg you, don't eat anymore, you can't stop eating." ”

"Okay, okay!" Li Bai smiled apologetically.

"I want to know, are you just trying to embarrass me, or are you doing the same to Changle, Changfu, and Chang Mourning?" Gao Changxi asked.

"Brother Gao, rest assured, they will be treated equally. Besides, I'm not a snitch, so I have to be inseparable from my brother. Li Bai said jokingly.

Gao Changxi shook his head, disdainful of distinguishing from Li Bai, turned around and saw that the cake in Zhou Yueran's hand was still in his hand, and hurriedly reminded her, "Miss Zhou, if you don't eat it again, he will snatch it up." ”

Zhou Yueran looked at Li Bai, Li Bai said with a harmless smile on his face: "Eat it, this is called Joy Cheese, produced by Gao Changxi Honor, nowhere else, it can remind me of all happy memories, and it tastes excellent." ”

Zhou Yueran ate the cake with peace of mind, and the taste was as delicious as Li Bai said, which was endlessly memorable.

Wait for Zhou Yueran to finish eating the cake. Gao Changxi took out a six-inch paper book from the drawer, handed it to Zhou Yueran and said: "This is called the Book of Life, which records your life's experience, you can choose a name for it, write it on the cover, and then sign your name...... Like your previous entrance ceremonies, karmic ceremonies, and weddings, it is an essential ritual for your entire life. Once your name is signed, it will automatically generate three copies, one for yourself, one for the deacon who leads you, and the other for the last stop that accepts you, the Le Hill or the Ruins of Suffering."

Zhou Yueran took the book and read it carefully: "There are so many running accounts, how can it be like an account book." ”

"Everyone is their own screenwriter, everyone's life is unique, it just looks like a ledger, probably because its screenwriter loves mathematics. Li Bai joked with her, he said every word very gently, and at this time, he could only comfort her with a smile and reduce her fear of death.

Zhou Yueran thought to herself: "Whether it's Li Bai or Gao Changxi, their smiles are very warm, they are more handsome than any male star on the screen." In just more than 30 years of life, she has seen all kinds of human warmth, but the most terrifying death in the rumors is not terrifying at all and does not treat her indifferently, and the pain of death is not so heavy. "Come to the world and walk once, no one will leave alive!" she comforted herself as she picked up her pen and wrote on the cover one stroke at a time:

I stayed here for thirty-six years, leaving all my loved ones here.

Eventually, she signed her name.

The moment Zhou Yueran finished signing, Li Bai quietly left. Whenever those "walkers" walked to the likable Gao Changxi, they would naturally ignore his existence, and he had long been accustomed to it. For them, it is of course a happy thing to have all the memories of laughter and joy from the past come to life. But for Li Bai, this is a kind of pain, because the distance between happiness and pain is so palpable, every time he touches that short-term happiness, he will be shocked by the long and sensitive pain in the blink of an eye.

At this point, Li Bai's mission will end successfully, and then Gao Changxi will arrange everything, and finally he will give Zhou Yueran a one-way ticket, but the city will become a new starting point for her, and she will start a new life in a new destination, which is the proverb that has been circulated in Siming Mansion for many years:

There is no end to life, there is always an end to life.

When Li Bai was leaving, he was thinking, Gao Changxi was really likable, he was always smiling, and his smile was so charming. If Pei Changai hadn't told him a secret, saying that there was a little snitch named Whale Fall in Nai He City, which would make Gao Changxi laugh more ugly than crying, he would have thought that Gao Changxi would never be troubled.

"Whale fall and abuse Changxi, this is a new show, you must witness it next time. This boring thought made Li Bai's steps brisk.

When I came out of Nai He City, the night had just ended, and the white belly of the fish began to appear on the eastern horizon, and in the blink of an eye, the morning sun rose as promised.

The vast expanse of the salt lake is like a huge mirror, clearly reflecting the clear sky and lazy clouds.

Li Bai stood between the sea and the sky, the shallow lake water just touched his bare ankles, the slight wind blew the corners of his open clothes, the fine sunlight fell on his broad shoulders, and the slender reflection was reflected on the lake, as if there was a touch of sadness, slowly stirring this clear and quiet world.

In front of him, a lonely green mound is built in the lake, and the stone tablet in front of the mound is engraved: "The Tomb of Qingjue".

Every time he sent away a kind soul, Li Bai would come here and stay alone for a while. In fact, he has long been accustomed to life and death, as early as 750 A.D., as the first time he was appointed as a deacon to meet the Battle of Hengros, he personally went to the bloody battlefield, witnessed the mountains of corpses, that time he vomited in the dark, and then he also experienced the Aleppo earthquake, 230,000 people left this world forever in an instant, everything can only make people lament the fragility of life. There is also the Chongzhen who defended the throne, flooded Kaifeng City with a flood, taking away the lives of 600,000 people, and the Bola cyclone also caught up with him, that time millions of people could not wake up, and at the beginning of the 20th century, the flu hit the world, and even 100 million people died, and on a huge ship in the Gulf of Mexico, the world was full of white faces and dead branches and leaves.

One person's disaster is a tragedy, the tragedy of thousands of people is coming, it is like the end of the world, Li Bai is particularly afraid of the end of the world, for him, as long as the world does not die, the original intention will not change, if the world is destroyed, then she will really not be found.

Li Bai caressed the stele, the salt lake sparkling in the sun, and brought his thoughts back to the unforgettable Chang'an, the prosperous capital where he was born and grew up, where he met his beloved, but unfortunately she was the county lord, and he was born in the family of Shangjia, in order to be able to marry her openly, he went to the battlefield, ill-fated, did not fight for fame, but was imprisoned in a bitter cold place, tortured and not tight, every time he thought of his beloved waiting in Chang'an City, his heart was heartbreaking. Later, he died nine times and finally escaped, but Li Huan, a scholar who was regarded as a sibling, betrayed him, and when he rushed back to Chang'an without sleep, he was still one step too late. It was that step away, he saw the desperate Qing Jue jumping down from the towering city gate, it was the moment when his heart was broken, and from then on, Li Bai suffered from a strange disease of facial blindness, he could no longer recognize the faces of others, even if he was familiar with people, he couldn't recognize them.

So he kept the oath he made with Qingjue before his death, no matter who left first, he would wait by the Nai He Bridge for three years until he was reunited with the other party.

In front of Qing Jue's cold body, he wiped away his tears and pulled out his sword......

When he came to Nai Ho City, there were all kinds of buildings, dazzling, he had never seen a house higher than a mountain, a palace or a magnificent church, everything was ...... Except for the lack of a bridge.

There is really no bridge, there are people everywhere, and every face is the same to Li Bai. He walked through the streets and alleys of Nai He Town every day, evading the pursuit of the commander and the fast catcher, while constantly looking for the county lord of Qingjue. Although he couldn't recognize the county lord of Qingjue, he was convinced that Qingjue would definitely be able to recognize him. He searched for three years, but he didn't hear from him.

Li Bai lost his soul and no longer struggled, and Si Ming quickly caught him and sent him to Naihe Station according to the law, where every soul took the Baiju train to the "heaven" or "hell" in their hearts. In the waiting hall, Li Bai saw a thin woman, and was unconsciously attracted by her eyes, so clear and moving, but the lights in the hall were bright, but she groped her way forward step by step carefully.
