Chapter Seventy-Two: Whispering to the Stars
"Yun'er, you come with me. ”
"Where to go?"
He took off his night clothes and draped them over me: "Look at the scenery." ”
"Scenery?" a crooked thought flashed through my mind, was this asking me out?
"Don't lose it when it's dark. He smiled and took my hand.
"Wait a minute, I didn't promise you anything to see. "How can he pull people away without waiting for my consent like this, and it is too disrespectful of my autonomy.
"Oh, doesn't Yun'er want to see it?"
"I'll have to think about whether or not I'm going with you so late..."
He seemed to be smiling, but his tone was gentle but could not be refused: "If Yun'er really doesn't want to see it, then accompany me, anyway, no one can send Yun'er back now." ”
I glanced at him coldly, why is he always so self-conscious, and ask me to be more sincere!
He looked at me and chuckled, "Yun'er, don't worry, it will be worth it." ”
"You promise?"
"Guaranteed. His eyes were bright, and he assured that the words were spoken forcefully and earnestly. I like to see him take his things seriously and make promises, and just like the first day I saw him, he said confidently: I will definitely be able to protect you. He is the saint Zhang Liang, he will not lie, and every sentence is so safe in his ears that people are convinced.
"Hmm...... Then I'll reluctantly agree to go with you. I nodded reluctantly, and he smiled faintly and shook his head slightly, as if laughing at my writhing pretentiousness... Maybe he didn't mean it, but I was really weak-hearted......
I let him pull me through the mountains in the dark night, surrounded by darkness and only a faint moonlight, he is like a bright light, with him, I don't have to worry about getting lost in the night. The figure in front of me has been by my side since I came to this time and space, and slowly his bits and pieces have been carved into my heart, like a relative, I can't give up, as if as long as he is there, I will settle down without a home. Even if I am lost in the long river of time and space, there will always be hands that will firmly grasp me forward.
His footsteps stopped at a boulder at the corner of the cliff, which was also the end of the road. It must have been secluded in normal times, with mossy and overgrown weeds.
"Yun'er, you can see the most beautiful scenery of Songhai on this. ”
I glanced at it and estimated the height of the boulder, it was very difficult for me to climb up such a smooth stone, it seemed that I was going to have to ask someone again, this feeling was really bad, and I was depressed that I was not in my grasp...... The law of the jungle is the most basic law of this era, and I am the kind of person who can no longer be weak......
"Ofan, when will you, as a master, be able to teach me light skills? My martial arts are so poor, if I don't even know light skills, I won't have a way to escape. ”
As he spoke, I felt that my body was light, and a strong arm held me by the waist, and in the blink of an eye, Zhang Liang and I were already standing on the boulder. I looked down, this place is condescending, and there can only be two people sitting at most, the area is small, and it is really a bit scary to stand on it, I can't help but tremble and commit a fear of heights, and reflexively lean closer to Zhang Liang.
"Stand firm on the clouds and watch your step. He reminded, and the hot air sprayed in my ears, stirring something like a heat wave in the cold night wind, and my heart was beating disobediently. was originally a little trembling because of his fear of heights, but now he is inexplicably flustered, so that the whole person is even more nervous and frightened.
"Yun'er, you seem to be trembling?"
"Is there one?"
"I'm afraid of this, even if I learn light skills, I'm afraid it won't be useless. ”
"What's the matter if you're afraid, just get used to it slowly!" I was unconvinced, shook off his hand on my waist, and quickly sat down, relieving my mind, "It's true that this world is a little scary and crazy for me, and I don't adapt to it in many places, but when I think that all living beings today have experienced things that are a hundred times more cruel than what I have experienced, my difficulties are too insignificant, and you have survived, then I will definitely be able to." ”
The corners of Zhang Liang's mouth lifted beautifully, sat down beside me, and nodded, "Yun'er is indeed working hard." ”
This familiar sentence suddenly came out, and I was a little unexpected, and I suddenly remembered the dream I had before. In the dream, he stroked the tears on my cheeks and said softly, "Yun'er herself is also working hard, isn't it?"
"Ovary, what did you just say?"
"I said, Yun'er does work hard, doesn't she?"
I was stunned for a moment, and I felt the same tone, almost exactly the same words. Don't...... Didn't he hear my suspicious confession?
"Yun'er, why are you holding your hair down, is the scenery here really not satisfying to your heart?"
I came back to my senses, and raised my eyes to meet his slightly curved eyes, and his smile was like the ripples of a clear spring, overflowing from the corners of his mouth and covering his face. My mind was in a trance, and something gentle and precious condensed in my heart, which made my eyes moisten. I turned my head sideways and flashed my gaze, looking out at the distant city, the distant sea and the sky.
The starry sky in ancient times was naturally much more beautiful than in modern times, and the stars were like jewels, densely scattered across the vast and boundless night sky, and the ground seemed to be within reach. The milky white Milky Way, from the northwest sky, across the middle heaven, slanted to the southeast land. When the starry sky is reflected in the calm, inky black sea, it dances up and down in the microwave, and disappears from time to time. The mirage is distinctly defined under the moonlit sky, standing above the silver waves of the sea. The glimmer of Songhai City is like the reflection of the stars, and how many confidants are also talking at night.
Tagore's poem popped into my mind, and it seemed fitting that the present moment was appropriate: 'If I possess the sky and the stars, if I possess the world and its immeasurable riches, I still have more to demand.' However, as long as I have her, even if I only have a place in this world, I will be satisfied. ’
Tonight I sat with him on a stone to see the most beautiful night sky, the dissolving moonlight made people dizzy, the waves murmured in my chest with the gentle rhythm of my blood, the floating wind carried the movement of my heart into the embrace of the night sky, sinking in this silence, his whisper was like the sound of the night, gently touching the eardrums. Some people may not be destined to stay together for a lifetime, but the beauty of this moment can warm the heart for a lifetime, and there are no regrets.
"Ofan, you must often come here alone. ”
"Hmm. How did Yun'er know?"
"The more you are not surprised in front of the world, the person who seems to have no weakness, there must be another side behind the world to release your inner world, people can't be so tight all the time, and sooner or later it will break, so I guess you must often come here to cultivate your sentiments and relax and meditate......"
"Yun'er, do you also know how to read minds?" Zhang Liang said with a smile.
"I don't know how to read minds like Star Soul, but do you know what psychology is?"
"Psychology?"
"It is to observe your words and deeds, communicate with you, spy into your hidden inner world, and explore your unknown subconscious. I pretended to be esoteric.
"Subconscious?"
"The subconscious mind is certain thoughts that you are not even aware of, hidden under the actions and words that you express. For example, the evil in human nature that Uncle Xun said, some people's most primitive evil thoughts are something we don't want to admit and face, but they can't be controlled, and our daily behavior is at the mercy of the dark. ”
Zhang Liang's eyebrows raised slightly, and the corners of his mouth swayed into a chuckle: "It sounds very mysterious, it seems that I will have to watch out for Yun'er in the future." ”
I pursed my lips and snickered, nodded, and said, "Even if you are prescient! There is no perfect person in the world, and seeking saints is no exception. Is it true that you are so devoted to the world that you have never allowed your own selfishness and crooked thoughts in your heart? There is no record in the history books, but be careful that I find out, when I collect the evidence and bring it back to the millennium, I will shake out your ugly deeds, and the famous Lord Mousheng will be lost in the evening, hehe. ”
I looked sideways at Zhang Liang with a smug face, but met his gaze as deep as the night, his eyes glowed with a dull fluorescence like a starry sky, and the silver-white moonlight fell quietly on him, and the glowing silver edges outlined the loneliness of his figure. My heart trembled slightly, and the smile on the corner of my mouth disappeared with the night wind. Did my words make him think of parting, so there was a little sadness in his eyes?

The stones used to see the stars in this chapter are inspired by the fairy tale "The Little Prince" and the other from the Wushifeng of West Lake. There is a huge rock on Wushi Peak, on which only about two people can sit, and it is an excellent place to watch the scenery and sunset of West Lake. (*^__^*) If you go to the West Lake to play, it is worth seeing~
