Section 24 Living Up to the Promise (24)
I don't know how long it took for Silent to slowly pick up the red bell on the ground. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The wind blows lightly, and a wisp of fragrance wafts from the red bell and lingers on the tip of the nose.
Shinichi slowly held the red bell and held it close to his chest.
Great sorrow without tears, great enlightenment without words, laughter without sound.
If Gu Jin was silent with great compassion before, then the silence at this moment is great compassion without tears.
Forget to wait in the Wuliang Temple for a whole month, and I almost feel that when I don't come back, I don't think Ichichi will come back.
The man in the gray robe stepped on the stairs step by step with a white porcelain vase in his hand.
Forget the words can barely recognize the person in front of him, his original picturesque face is full of stubble, and his eyes are blank.
His clothes were in tatters, and he smelled bad.
Forget the words and almost lost her speech, and shouted: "Senior brother......"
Silent was expressionless, as if he had never heard of it, passing by the oblivion.
Forget to say and be stunned, and pull on Lin Yi's robe: "Senior brother, you ......"
What happened to you?
The latter words can no longer be asked, if it is said that in addition to silence in the eyes before, at least there is a look, but now, those eyes are full of dead silence.
Not a little angry, cold......
Forget the words suddenly didn't dare to hold the silence, and let him enter the room like a walking corpse.
Almost without being reminded, Shinichi placed the porcelain vase on the table.
I fetched water and bathed.
Tidy himself up, and then sit on the stone table that Gu Jin often makes.
The white porcelain vase never fell in his arms.
Sometimes, I still murmur something from time to time.
Forget to sit down slowly, Silence glanced at him, but did not speak.
Just holding the porcelain vase in his hand tightly in his arms, the red bell emerged from his sleeve, and suddenly made the pupils of the forgotten words shrink.
This red bell can return from Gu Jin's body to Shanyi's body, which can only show that person......
Forget Yu opened his mouth, looked at the porcelain vase and said, "Where is it...... Is it her? ”
Silence froze one by one, and then lowered his eyes.
"Senior brother, don't you want to be like this, okay?" Forget Yu frowned fiercely: "Tell me, what has happened in the past month or so?" ”
The silent voice of "......" made Forget the words almost feel that there was not a person sitting in front of him.
Forgot to purse his lips: "Senior brother......"
Silent was still expressionless, just his hand gently caressing the white porcelain bottle.
Forget to say that he had to close his eyes and sigh.
For many days after that, no matter what he forgot to say, it was as if he couldn't hear it, and there was no sound.
Xu Moxian was invited to Wuliang Temple by forgetting his words, knowing that Gu Jin was probably after his soul was scattered, everything in the past came to him.
He sat on the stone bench and looked up at the lonely one.
The other party was like a puppet who had lost his soul, his face was expressionless and dead.
Xu Moxian smiled, his smile was very bitter.
On the first day, he didn't speak because he didn't know what to say.
The next day, I came as usual, still didn't say anything, just sat down for a while and left.
Day 3, Day 4, Day 5...... And so it was on the seventh day.
Forgetting to look at it in a hurry, Xu Moxian finally brought something on the tenth day.
It was a small pot of saplings, as if it had been well cared for, lush and green.
"It's Sumire's thing." Xu Moxian was not silent this time, and sent the sapling to Lin Yi.
Silence's eyes fell on the sapling, and he stared at Xu Moxian.
"This is what I came to see her, and she wanted." Xu Moxian sighed lightly: "She originally said that she wanted to plant this acacia tree in your yard." ”
"But she's a soul body, and she can't touch this thing, so she asked me."
Silence finally removed his hand from the porcelain vase and landed on the leaves: "She ......"
Probably hadn't spoken for too long, and his voice was extremely hoarse.
"Want to hear the story between me and her?" Xu Moxian looked at Lin Yi and finally reacted, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked slowly.
Shiraichi touched the soft leaves with his fingertips, and nodded when he heard the words.
"At that time, on my way to Beijing to catch the exam, I encountered bandits."
"I'm a scholar, I'm really not their opponent, I saved my life in desperation, but I was penniless." Xu Moxian had a shallow smile on his face: "I went to Chang'an Street and made a living selling paintings." ”
"Probably because I robbed the beggars of their territory, they beat me badly, and when I was dying, she came out and saved me."
Silence was fascinated by it, and a picture took shape in his mind.
The official lady was dressed in a beautiful dress, and her face was unhappy, so that the group of beggars stopped.
"At that time, she didn't dislike me, but saw from the paintings that I was a scholar, so she asked the maid to pick up a few pairs of calligraphy and paintings, and handed me a big bag."
"She helped me in such a tactful way."
Xu Moxian remembered the woman's gentle and graceful figure that day, and there seemed to be nostalgia in his eyes: "Rujin always thought that our first meeting was at the poetry meeting, but she didn't know that she had already appeared in my life. ”
"So you...... Why ......" Silence slowly spoke, his eyes flashing: "Abandoned her at the last time?" ”
That woman has always been resolute.
It's like she decided to jump off the cliff, decided to get rid of the jackal demon for him, and resolutely fulfilled him.
"Because of my cowardly ......" Xu Moxian shook his head: "I deliberately fled to the foot of the Wuliang Temple that day, but I regretted it when I looked at her. ”
"Then, when I was doing what she wanted to do, she told me that she didn't hate me anymore."
"At that moment, I knew that I and her, probably from the moment I was cowardly, would no longer be possible."
"I think you need this acacia tree more than I do now, so I brought it." Xu Moxian glanced at Lin Yi: "She is too bitter in her life, she is obviously a noble girl, but she is affected by me." ”
"Even in the end, I killed her, and even if she forgave me, I didn't dare to forgive myself."
"If there is really reincarnation, I only hope that in the next life, I will be a cow and a horse to make me pay back."
Silence slowly lowered his eyes, and his fingertips gently rubbed the white porcelain bottle.
"She is only afraid and doesn't want you to be like this, and now that there is no way back, you can only go on."
Xu Moxian got up and said goodbye: "She actually wants you to live, so you can live well." ”
Silence no longer spoke, and Xu Moxian did not wait for Silence to answer.
He knew how desperate the people behind him were, and naturally knew that what he said himself would definitely play a role in him.
Rusumire, you said you wanted to be by his side all the time.
Now, that acacia tree, I give it to him for you.
Hopefully, it will thrive and be by his side instead of you, from early morning to night, from sunrise to sunset.
Accompanied him gradually to his last moment.
It's just that, like Sumire, you have to go all the way.
Love is hurt, how many people have suffered, love is sad, how cold is clear, and how much thinking has been lost.
Even if the moth fights the fire, it still has no hesitation, hurting others and hurting itself, but it cannot be cut off for a lifetime.
In this life, probably neither I nor him will ever forget you.
