The world is impermanent, and the will of heaven is unpredictable. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's a good thing to sell, it's beautiful and delicious."
The call of the hawkers came from the city, and the city was peaceful, and the people were happy and lively.
At this time, I stood on the moat of the good city, standing on the high wall and looking at all this, the prosperous and powerful good city.
"Click, click."
Two teardrops fell on the wall and quickly disappeared. I raised my hand to touch my cheek, only to feel a cold, wet voice. Is it tears? I wondered, I didn't understand. I am the god of antiquity, I am from the wilderness, I have an infinite lifespan, I have infinite loneliness. I've been through too much suffering, too much happiness. I've seen too many separations, too many encounters. I've heard too many stories and seen too many joys and sorrows. Looking at this prosperous city, how can I still cry?
Is it because of her? Is it because that's what she wants to see? "Let's go, it's time to meet an old friend." I meditated in my heart. I turned and walked into the woods.
The woods are secluded and deserted, and occasionally one or two cubs sneak out to feed. The seemingly quiet and ghostly woods seem to be just a simple hunting ground for hunters to capture, but in fact, there are hidden mysteries in this woods.
"Where are you going, young man?" The old man who was chopping wood stopped me and asked. I smiled slightly: "Uncle, I'll go to this forest to meet my friends." ”
When the old man heard this, he hurriedly put the firewood off his shoulder, and hurriedly grabbed me and said, "Young man, you can't go!" “
I stopped and reached out to support the old man: "Why? ”
The woodcutter looked around and saw that no one was able to put his ear to me and said, "There is a strange thing in this forest, and I can only enter and leave." Others say that there is a mountain god who is cultivating and can't be disturbed. ”
Turning his head and looking at the forest again, he snorted and whispered:
"I don't believe in any mountain gods, it's obviously a monster."
He turned to me and said with a smile, "Young man, your friend lives not far away, so don't go." ”
I thanked the old man and walked on, letting the old man shout behind me. I naturally understand what he said, how could I not understand the formation I set. As for only entering and not leaving, it should be those people who broke into the formation by mistake and touched the mechanism.
The forest is getting farther and farther away, so far away that the world doesn't even know that there is such a place in this forest. I know I've passed through the illusion and I'm about to see my friend.
The woods grew quieter and quieter, so quiet that I could hear even the faint sound of my breathing. Towering trees surround it, with leaves like ink and branches like iron. The sound of the wind rustling and shouting, like the roar of a wild beast, and the neat call of a soldier.
Yes, this is no longer the simple woods, this is the ancient forest, the land left by the gods, there have been wars here, the gods have fought with each other here, here have been thousands of miles of corpses, here have saved the world.
This ancient forest carries too much history and carries too much heaviness. But now it's deserted, forgotten here, bound here by me. I didn't rush to crack the formation, but stroked the trees around and listened to their souls, their roars.
I lowered my eyes, was it unwilling, was it the pain of being left behind, was it the fear of being lonely and lonely for eternity? Yes, I replied in my heart, "I am unwilling, I am miserable, I am lonely, why, I am God, the father of creation, why in the end the world will abandon me, why will I finally rebel against my relatives. Why! ”
"Ahh!!!hh I looked up to the sky and roared, and the air flow of my whole body jumped out, and the trees were hit and fell to the ground. My hands fell in vain, and I leaned against the trunk of the tree and gasped for breath.
"Hehe, hehe, hehe."
I laughed inadvertently, tears fell suddenly, I laughed, cried and watched the leaves fall in the air and spin and fly, I thought if she was still there she would have laughed at me for being stupid. She'll always be like this, forever. But even so, I still love her and will never regret it. "I'm a fool to laugh at the merman, hehe", I sat on the ground with a dejected face, and didn't pay attention to the dust on the hem of my clothes, laughing at myself mockingly: "Am I not?" ”
I sat under the tree for a while and calmed down. The tears on my face had long since been dried by the wind, and I slowly stood up, regaining my arrogant, calm, unrestrained, indifferent self. I smoothed the folds on the hem of my garment, swept away the dust, took a deep breath and opened my arms, and a huge formation gradually unfolded before my eyes.
"Three hours in the morning, seven steps up, five steps in the sub-hour, two steps on the right, two steps at noon, three steps after the noon"
I whispered a spell to myself and walked into the circle, and I saw countless unjust spirits, corroded and festering corpses, and some skeletons that were old. I closed my eyes, waved my sleeves, and disappeared in an instant. I looked at it coldly: "Let's be reincarnated." “
Go through the formation, dispose of those rotting corpses, there is no hole in the formation. I stepped into the barrier and saw the lawn with green grass and a few elk walking leisurely, and the sound of the waterfall beside it; There is a platform inside the waterfall with a thatched hut built on it. The waterfall falls from the platform, creating a natural curtain of water. There are also several peach blossom and pear blossom trees in full bloom at the foot of the surrounding mountains.
Pink peach blossom petals, snow-white pear blossom petals intertwined and flying all over the sky, I looked at this beautiful scenery and sneered, stretched out my arm and waved, and the scenery disappeared in an instant. In the entrance is the hideous cliffs everywhere, the dry waterfalls, there is no warmth of the four seasons like spring, there is no beautiful scenery of petals, there are just bottomless cliffs and cold air, there is no sunshine, there is no warmth, only the cold, the cold into the bones.
I look around the environment
"You're still so boring, you want to destroy it when you see it."
A voice came: "Come on, the tea has already been prepared." “
I stepped into the air, climbed onto the platform and slammed the door open. The facilities in the house are very simple, a few books are stacked on the ground in tatters, and the pages are yellowed, and you can see that they are old and often read by people. The collapse of the table is extremely casual. Looking at the future and the pages on the table, it was clear at a glance that the book had just been carried underground. Because this is the only table for tea and serving.
An elegant man sat quietly behind the table in the room, holding a fan and boiling tea on the stove next to him, and the curling green smoke floated around him like a fairyland, making people feel more and more ethereal. The man looked up at me at the noise, and then looked down to boil his tea:
"Still so rude."
I ignored his complaints, and went into the room and sat down at the table: "Wushan, it seems that I am too good to you, you are quite leisurely here." ”
