5. Delivery of the handle [I]
The last light was lit up among the mountains, from the flower fields on the edge of the city to the place where it entered the sea. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The boy and his companion crept through the flower fields, stooping to keep an eye on the crowd at the edge of the temple in the distance, eager to get closer.
"Okay, okay, we can't go any further...... Cliff, you're back! ”
The boy deliberately ignored his companion's stops, as if he had entered a great adventure.
He burrowed his head into the flowers, only looking for one direction and moving forward, Tinglan's flowers were broken countless by him, and for a while, the sweet fragrance of flowers became stronger and stronger.
The girl stood at the back of the crowd, and she was in a daze at the sound of prayer, but she heard the sound of approaching, like a beast of great size.
The girl looked up at the woman beside her, and seeing that no one was noticing her, she cautiously turned around.
For a moment, half of the cliff's head emerged from the flowers, just in time for the girl's surprised eyes.
How close it can be!
Jie Ya's face was stained with Tinglan's pollen, and the girl couldn't help but giggle when she looked at his flashing eyes and the uncontrollable look of pride on his lips.
Jieya hurriedly reached out and pressed the girl's mouth, and in a panic, he took her hand and dragged her into the flowers.
"What are you doing! Let go! ”
The girl was also afraid of alarming the others, so she could only lower her voice and curse angrily.
Jie Ya tugged at her hand stupidly, the girl seemed to be half a head taller than him, and the two of them were just shoulder to shoulder, so close that even the girl's flickering eyelashes could be counted.
He was completely stunned, this was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, it was like in a dream.
"Hey! Are you a fool? The girl broke free of her arm, looked at the wild boy in front of her and blushed, and couldn't help laughing, "You can't come here, if you are discovered, you will be miserable!" ”
The girl looked out through the flower branches, and then the cliff remembered her purpose.
"Where is the bride, why didn't I see it?"
He looked in the direction of the girl in a panic, but it was only a staggered crowd.
In Banlicheng, the newlyweds' prayers begin at sunrise and continue until sunset.
All the women would gather around the bride and sing long prayers and pray for peace and happiness.
Men are certainly not allowed to join, not even to look at them.
It is not until the lights of the earth are lit that the groom can welcome the bride with a cheering crowd, and the wedding is truly the beginning of a night of singing and wine.
"What's so nice to see, and sneaking in, I really don't understand...... I'm dying of exhaustion! ”
The girl complained more seriously, whether it was the frowning brows or the slightly beating eyes, which inspired the infinite courage in the boy's heart.
He reached out and took the girl in his hand again: "Come! ”
He nodded behind him, and the night wind blew from the sea, even bringing back the sound of seabirds.
The girl looked at his gently floating hair, and the flowers that were fading in the distance, and the faint light seemed to be the same as the look in the boy's eyes.
The prayer was almost to the end, and there didn't seem to be much time to think, and the high-spirited face in front of me had never been seen before, whether it was the discipline of the parents or the books that he read day and night.
It's like something I've been looking forward to, like yes, in a dream.
The girl let go of her palm and took the boy's warm hand in obedience, and the two disappeared into the flowers.
Until the prayer song was over, and the noise of welcoming relatives was approaching, the companion was still lying on his stomach, hesitating whether to flee first.
Jie Ya suddenly jumped out with the girl.
"Look!"
He took the girl's hand tightly and lifted it above his head, a victorious smile on his face.
"You're so cool, too!"
Three small figures ran wildly among the flowers, and the excitement that could no longer be suppressed turned into shouts of joy.
The starlight above their heads gradually became brighter, and the three of them ran forward like this, the flower field had no end, and the people in the dream seemed to never be able to leave this night.
I just ran forward, I didn't know where I was going, I just didn't want to stop.
"My name is Zixi, we'll meet again......"
"It smells so good...... What kind of flower is this? ”
"The power of gentleness may change the world!"
"I don't want to be chosen! I'm going to be with you all the time......"
Memories are so real that they can easily turn into dreams one day.
On the same night, Jie Cliff didn't know that night had come.
He returned to the dark passage of Banli City, and stayed for several days, where he could still see the trajectory of the rising sun and the setting moon.
He quickly found the place in his memory, the stone slab in front of him, a total of thirty-two pieces up, and in the upper right corner of the ninth block, there were two crooked words engraved there.
"Zixi."
The boy who once dared to take risks, met those star-like eyes in a field of flowers, and then, despite the constraints of the teachings, came to this place alone, and carved all his thoughts on the wall.
"You've been away for so long, everyone knows it's impossible to see you again, I must have read it wrong......"
Cliff muttered to himself for a while, and finally fell to the ground in despair along the corner.
There is not a single bit of light, and I don't know if the sky is bright or dark, and if I die here like this, maybe no one will find out at all.
He shook his head helplessly, not knowing how many times he had laughed at himself in his heart.
I knew it was an illusion, but I still held on to it for so long.
She won't come back, and even if she does, it shouldn't be like that.
Indeed, if this continues, the eyes will gradually wither in the darkness and become unable to see clearly.
Then the body began to fall to the ground, and the whole person seemed to float slowly, but the feeling in my heart was real, a sense of struggle to die, and it hit my chest with force.
The subtle force was amplified in my ears, and again, and again, like the sound of someone approaching.
"Tick...... Tick ......"
There was a sound of footsteps in the empty tunnels, and the corners of the skirts brushing against the walls, and even the beads colliding in the ears.
Jieya sensed the noise in the distance, but he no longer had the strength to even raise his head.
He listened as the man approached, his dying senses telling him it was real, but there was not the slightest fear in his heart.
This is a man he knows well, and his eyes have been falling on him, coming from the darkness, his steps are firm, as if he can see where he is.
Far away and expectant, the man finally stopped beside him, bent down, and a face just fell on the angle that could be seen.
"You're here......"
Although he no longer looked like a little girl, Jie Ya still recognized it at a glance, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound, this was the words in his heart.
"Yes......" Zixi seemed to hear it, and reached out to stroke his face, "Don't move!" It's okay, what do you want to say in your heart, I've heard it......"
