The phoenix butterfly greeted the sunset, passed through the crowd, and landed on a snow-white green silk, it was a woman who had reached the twilight of her life, but she was wearing a white wedding dress, leaning on a beach chair, and holding a wedding photo in her arms, the photo was a couple of newlyweds over half a hundred years old, and the two smiled wrinkles in front of the camera.

The old man found Li Bai's figure, so he stood up and expressed his heartfelt thanks to him: "I have always been scared when I didn't get to this moment, but now I realize that as long as you treat your life gently, death is not so terrifying, and you are unprepared when you come, at least you can arrange everything when you leave...... The sunset is not terrible, how beautiful Phuket is at sunset. We spent our honeymoon here, and now we are leaving, and we want to come back to see one last time, this is the place where our happiness began, and I am afraid that when we get there, the old man will ask me. Thank you...... Thank you for helping me make my last wish come true. ”

"Don't thank me, don't you always say to others in your life, 'Good people must be rewarded'? ”

The old man opened his palm, and Li Bai saw that the red mole in her palm was not the one he was looking for.

"My mole is definitely not what you are looking for, I have been classmates with the old man since I was a child, at that time he was naughty but very thin-skinned, secretly liked me but did not dare to show me, always deliberately couldn't get along with me, always bullied me, this mole was pierced by the tip of the pen with the head teacher to correct the homework at that time. The old man remembered the past decades as if it had happened yesterday.

"After he left you, haven't you met someone you like again?" Li Bai suddenly remembered Ye Shengge's words.

The old man shook his head with a smile and said to Li Bai: "In our generation, things will be sewn and repaired when they are broken, let alone people? Although he is gone, he has always lived in my heart, and every time I think of the past, I will still be moved by him." ”

"I have a friend who told me that there is no irreplaceable old love in this world, only a new love that is unswerving. Li Bai relayed Yeshengge's words to the old man in front of him.

After hearing this, the old man shook his head firmly, and patiently replied: "I buy a bouquet of flowers every week, it is like a feeling of liking, it has an expiration date. But love is a seed, once it takes root and sprouts, it will grow slowly, and it will grow into a dense towering tree, if you uproot it and replace it with a new one, love will die. You must believe in love, otherwise you wouldn't be looking for her all the time. ”

Li Bai nodded.

The old man held Li Bai's hand and told him seriously: "You see, this wedding photo was retaken after our reunion, I have been separated from him for 20 years, if he hadn't insisted on finding me, I would definitely have lived this life alone with my thoughts." So, you must also find her, don't give up, believe me, she must be waiting for you. ”

"I'm going to find her. Li Bai said firmly.

"Every lonely person has a waiting soul living in his heart. I have only now discovered that people live for a lifetime, and they can't take anything with them, only love is willing to live and die with you. When the old man said this, he couldn't help but rub the picture frame in his hand, and tears flowed quietly in the wrinkles.

"We're leaving. Li Bai looked at the time on his wrist, it was exactly 18 o'clock.

The old man wiped away his tears and nodded.

Li Bai led the old man out of the beach and returned to the hospital in an instant. The family members stayed in the ward, the old man's breathing became weaker and weaker, at this time a seven-colored rainbow bridge appeared outside the window of the ward, there was a door at the end of the rainbow bridge, the old man stood in front of this door, and said leisurely: "It seems that Truman opened the door of Peach Blossom Island, how I hope that this life is just a dream, how much I hope to cross this door, the dream can wake up one morning in my twenties, and be able to love my wife for a lifetime." ”

The people in the ward began to cry, the old man turned her head when she heard the sound, and saw herself lying motionless on the bed with a peaceful face, she smiled and waved her hand to the family members in the ward: "Dear friends, I hope you can all have a safe and happy life." ”

After the old man finished speaking, he followed Li Bai into the wooden door at the end of the rainbow, and a patch of yellow sand suddenly appeared in front of him, and the wind howled in his ears. Li Bai didn't find his assistant He Feng at the door, and asked the probationary deacon next to him to know that he had been selected into the Deacon Academy.

"Deacon Bai, it seems that you can only go to Ruohe City in person. ”

Li Bai nodded, and said to himself: "I can't remember how many years I haven't walked this road." ”

After Li Bai finished speaking, he led the old man into the yellow sand, this desert was very lively, there were crowds of people everywhere, and an extremely handsome young man led an ordinary person to rush to the hinterland of the desert together, among these ordinary people there were all kinds of skin colors, but the elderly and children accounted for the majority.

"Are they all dead like me?" the old man's question Li Bai had answered countless times.

"No, we don't call you 'Destined Travelers'. Because you have just finished a period of life, said goodbye to your relatives and friends, rushed here from the place where you lived, rested in Ruohe City, and rushed to Kuru or Leqiu, and then started a new journey from there, we are used to making you 'life travelers'. ”

The two talked as they walked, and before they knew it, they walked to the hinterland of the desert, when the wind and sand were getting bigger and bigger, and the old man could only squint in front of him, and after walking like this for a few minutes, she felt that Li Bai, who was leading the way, stopped.

"This is the Sunrise Cliff. ”

The old man opened his eyes when he heard this, and was immediately shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of him: "Wow!

Li Bai looked at these dense faces in front of him, and sure enough, his expression became in a trance, and he vaguely saw a figure wearing a long skirt among countless life travelers, standing in front of the cliff, the morning fog behind him, the moon and stars in front of the cliff were sparse, and the quiet dome was full of colorful lotus lanterns.

At this time, two more voices appeared in Li Bai's heart, and they fought, arguing fiercely:

"It's Qingjue, I'm going to find her. ”

"No, it's just an illusion. ”

"Fuck your hallucination, you're my hallucination, I must find Qingjue. ”

"Stop, you can't go over, it's just an ordinary life traveler, he can only talk to his life master, if you go over and disturb you and he will fall into the Morning and Dusk Cliff. ”

The old man kept calling Li Bai, and he had been deaf, the old man gently pulled Li Bai's sleeve, Li Bai finally came back to his senses, remembering the scene just now and couldn't help but be afraid for a while, fortunately the old man woke him up in time, this is the reason why he hasn't walked this road for many years, and last time he almost caused a big disaster. His forehead was unconsciously covered with beads of sweat, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so he hurriedly apologized to the old man: "I'm sorry, you've waited for a long time, haven't you?"

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, but are you okay?" asked the old man with concern.

"It's okay, I just haven't been here in a long time...... A lotus lantern is missed for a lifetime...... Look, that's your lotus lantern. ”

Following the direction of Li Bai's finger, the old man saw a pink lotus lantern flying in the night sky, drawing a beautiful arc in the sky, and finally landing in front of him.

Li Bai took the old man's hand and stood with her on the lotus lantern, which flew in the night sky.

The two looked up at the sea of lotus lamps above their heads, unconsciously it was raining in the air, a rain of flowers, looking closely, they were all three-petaled small flowers, but some petals were as white as snow, some were green as rain, some were as red as cherries, and some were yellow as chrysanthemums, each of which was as beautiful as a fairy tale, like a grandma's ballad, like a lover's murmur.

"What kind of flower is this?"

"This is the legendary seven-colored flower. As Li Bai spoke, his shoulders were already full of flowers, and those flowers stuck to his body, like a shy girl, and disappeared in an instant.

"Seven-colored flowers, why are there only four colors?" asked the old man, puzzled.

"This needs to be followed, and some people can only see one color. ”

The old man nodded with satisfaction after listening, she flew in the night sky with countless life travelers, although the scenery in front of her was much more beautiful than she imagined, she did not have a trace of uneasiness in her heart, she saw a faint light flickering in the distance, the old man couldn't help asking, "Is that heaven?"

"Ahead is Ruohe City. Li Bai smiled.

The light of the lotus lamp under his feet gradually dimmed, and the lights in the distance became closer and closer.

Just when the lotus lantern was about to go out, the scene in front of him finally became clear, it was a beautiful scenery that the old man had never seen in his life, and a beautiful dream that he had never had in his life.

A huge lotus flower bloomed in the distant night sky, and the white petals of the flower wrapped around a brightly lit city.

Colorful street lamps and neon lights sing loudly at night, and the high-rise buildings dance in the streets and alleys......

When the lotus lantern disappeared under their feet, they were already standing in front of the city. Standing on one of the petals, these petals, as well as the entire huge lotus flower, turned out to be made up of fireflies in the sky.

Li Bai said leisurely: "This is a firefly. The lotus lantern is the remembrance of the living to the deceased, and the firefly is the concern of the deceased for the living. You try too, close your eyes and think in your heart of those who love you and those who have helped you......"

The old man closed his eyes, and fireflies flew out of his mind, and the heart-wrenching thoughts and reluctance in his heart turned into fireflies flying out one by one, and dense fireflies circled in the air.

When she opened her eyes, the fireflies instantly burst into the night sky, blooming like fireworks, and the brilliant and brief light of the meteor disappeared.

"Where have they gone?" asked the old man reluctantly.

"At this time, whoever you think about in your heart, your fireflies will fly into whose dreams, presume peace for you, soothe their wounds for you, and when they wake up from their dreams, they will not be immersed in grief all the time, unable to extricate themselves. ”

Li Bai led her onwards, and saw a high wall of golden light circling outside the city, winding into the depths of the night, with no end in sight, and many young people sat in the corner with meditative faces, all with the same expressions of devout repentance.

"What is there?" asked the old man, pointing to the huge wall in front of him.

Every time he passed by this wall, Li Bai would chuckle in his heart, "'Wall of Courage'." Life is a practice, and everyone who gives up their life with their own hands must pass the trial here until they learn to cherish life again and fill in the answers to the blank papers they have handed in, and then they can enter the city of Naihe. ”

Li Bai's tone was a little excited, and the woman's intuition told her that the relationship between this wall and Li Bai must be unusual. But she didn't ask, because there were too many questions in her mind when she first arrived.

Walking all the way to the gate of the city, Li Bai handed over the old man to the staff of Ruohe City and left first.

When Li Bai returned to the earth's space, it was a new day, and he had just entered Qingbai Hutong, when the Dalmatian dog named "Panda" rushed towards him, followed by the morning jogging child's dream.

Tong Meng was deeply surprised to see that the cold "panda" was so close to the strange man in front of her, she looked at the man curiously, but a sentence popped out of her mouth inexplicably: "I seem to have seen you." ”
