Zhang Weimila's enthusiasm is like the scorching sun, and it seems that no matter how much it is squandered, it is inexhaustible. She said that after the eclipse celebration, she would take Gu Mei around.

Gu Mei has not participated in any celebrations, and there are also customs of holding celebrations during the New Year's holidays in inland areas, but they have long been submerged in modern civilization.

The celebration was very grand, and Gu Mei felt that this eclipse celebration was very similar to the Torch Festival.

Mila put on traditional clothes, and the whole person looked a little less heroic, and a little more charmed by a Naxi woman.

Because this celebration is more like a memorial, Gu Mei, who is a foreigner, is not allowed to participate, so she is not qualified to wear Naxi costumes on such a day, which she regrets. Of course, it's okay to be a bystander, but this right to be a bystander is still for the sake of her being the first village friend brought by Mira, otherwise she won't even have the right to watch.

As Mira said before, the eclipse celebration is to petition the gods on the occasion of the eclipse, so at the moment when the eclipse occurs, the torches will be like reflecting the sky red, and the sky will instantly become dark, dyed with a warm orange and a passionate red.

The lads ran wildly with torches like wild horses, and the girls danced and sang around the blazing fire......

Da Lai led the lama to chant the scriptures on the altar in front of the fire.

The ancient text, recited by the monks who have taken off the six roots, is like a hymn, and the Buddha is like a baptism. In an instant, Gu Mei felt that her heart had been purified, and since then there has been no sorrow, no joy, no love and no hatred, and she has completely returned to the purity and blankness of her first birth.

The sun was completely swallowed up, leaving behind a thick inky blackness, even if the light of the red fire shone in the sky, it was difficult to resist the engulfment of darkness. When the darkness came, Gu Mei suddenly felt a little frightened, such pure blackness was the first time she had encountered it in her life.

It's like seeing a person on a forum say, "Have you ever felt the real darkness?" Or do you think that the night is really dark? The real darkness will swallow up the light and leave nothing behind.

Gradually, Gu Mei felt a little dizzy, she wanted to find Mira, but the darkness blurred her vision, and she couldn't see clearly which one was Mira in the crowd by the dazzling firelight. Then, the crowd pushed her, and in the end, she didn't know where she was standing.

Suddenly, the singing and chanting came to an abrupt halt, and everyone stopped moving, looking at the sun that was gradually regaining its light, and their faces were reverent.

They were praying, praying to their gods, hoping that their wishes would be fulfilled, that this Bita Sea would always be on this plateau, as bright as a pearl, and that the Naxi people, like the green pines, would last forever and endure for many years.

Gu Mei also wanted to make a wish, but she found that she seemed to have lost the ability to speak and act, so she could only stand in place, watching the solar eclipse subside, unable to speak, unable to move, and her clear mind seemed to be blurred because of the fear brought about by the darkness and the incomprehension and panic caused by the sudden change.

As if something was put into her brain, she felt that her whole person was spinning, everything around her became blurred, and finally it was completely colorful, like a kaleidoscope, constantly rotating, the whole world and herself, completely integrated into this colorful color, and finally you don't distinguish me, I don't distinguish you, completely, without each other.

……

When she opened her eyes again, she felt her head hurt.

Hmm, what's going on?

She sat up with difficulty, the call of a human voice in her ears, and her blurred vision gradually became clear.

She was dazed for a long time before her eyes were completely fixed on the person in front of her.

"Ah...... Fig?"

***

After the eclipse memorial, Zhang Weimila tore off the heavy crown and went to look for Gu Mei, but after looking for a long circle, she almost lifted all the places where the memorial was held, but there was still no trace of her.

In the end, when Gu Mei was found fainting on the edge of the road, her heart immediately panicked, and she had an inexplicable severe worry.

……

Soon, the secret doctor from the village came, but he just glanced at Gu Mei, shook his head, and prepared to leave.

Mira was anxious and asked him, "Secret doctor, what's going on? Why didn't you look at it and just left?" ”

The tantric doctor hesitated for a few moments before saying, "She was taken away by God." ”

The Secret Doctor left, and Mira froze.

What does that mean?

Suddenly, she remembered the legend of the eclipse memorial. Could it be that Gu Mei was really taken away by God? However, God is to fulfill people's wishes, and her wish is to be taken away?

Even how sincere Mira's belief in the gods is at this moment is very incredible...... Even ridiculous.

About half an hour later, ** also came, which made Mira feel even more ridiculous and uneasy. **I rarely go out of the temple on weekdays, but I actually came to their house at this moment, and the reason for this is obviously for Gu Mei.

Da, Lord Lai pinched and turned the red sandalwood Buddha beads, and his eyes full of wisdom and compassion swept towards Gu Mei, and after a while, a ray of light flashed in his eyes.

"Da, Lord Lai, Gu Mei, she-"

"Mira, don't worry, your friend is fine, she was just taken away by God. "**'s speech is the same as that of a secret doctor, extremely mysterious.

Forgive her for making such feelings about the words of the ** she has always respected, it's really unbelievable because of all this!!

"Da, Lord Lai......" Mira still wants to cling to this unbelievable.

Da, Lord Lai sighed and said lightly: "Take a good look at her body first, it seems that there is nothing wrong with anything else except that she can't be sober." ”

"But—" Mira was still persistent, but Da, Lord Lai did not give her this chance.

"Mira, since God has taken her, he will bless her, she will be fine, and when the time comes, she will naturally come back, as her friend, what you should do now is to pray for her. ”

The wise and compassionate eyes of Lord Da Lai give people a sense of stability, as if no matter how impetuous the heart is, it will be at peace and quiet under the gaze of these eyes.

Mira looked at ** away, and then looked at Gu Mei who was lying on the bed so peacefully that she seemed to be asleep. She thought to herself: she wanted to go to a place where she couldn't go, and that place had people she wanted to see but couldn't see.

Mira untied the Hualong Divine Stone that had been hanging on her chest since she was a child, kissed it reverently and then put it on for Gu Mei, and the Hualong Divine Stone was shining on Gu Mei's body, so crystalline.

Legend has it that the sacred stone can ward off evil and protect people's hearts and souls from evil things.
