Chapter 10 Sifan
The darkness is swirling. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is said to be spinning, but it is more like condensing, condensing to a point in the middle of the darkness, and finally, condensing into a black lotus flower, standing on the surface of the water.
All around, the sun falls gently.
It's not a summer sun, it's more like a warm winter sun.
It's just that this warmth is not the slightest warmth, but a piercing coldness, like the indifferent gaze in the crowded crowd in a big city.
The pond is very desolate, the water is full of dead branches and leaves, and the only life is the black lotus flower that stands gracefully.
Looking around, Qiao Jiawa still existed.
However, it is very different from Qiao Jiawa in Gu Xinyan's impression.
All the small red brick buildings on the second floor have disappeared, the courtyard dam made of cement is also gone, the structure of the houses is quite ancient, there are very few brick houses, although there are courtyards made of blue bricks, more are thatched houses with mud and earth walls, and the trees and bamboo forests are denser.
The color of the whole world is very weird, a bit like the feeling of splashing ink.
There was a faint sound of bamboo suona in the ear, the sound floated from the high platform in the distance, accompanied by a low chant and shallow singing, and after a while, the gong sounded loudly, and the singing voice suddenly became high-pitched, very poignant.
Following the prestige, the high platform in the distance instantly moved to a closer place, straight into view.
There is a pergola on the top, a stage under the shed, and there is a woman in a plain white dress on the stage, at this time, her back to the audience, her left hand is shaking the cloud sleeve, and her right hand is holding a dust.
"There is no Buddha in the south, there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south......"
The tune grew quieter.
At this time, the gong sounded again.
The plain-clothed woman began to recite white at the sound of the gong.
"The little girl's common surname is Zhao, and her legal name is empty ......"
In the middle of the voice, the woman turned around.
The woman had no face.
That face was just a blank piece of paper, a white paper with no bumps and bumps, and the facial features were drawn with colored pens, a bit like a paper figure with Gu Xinyan.
Seeing this face at first glance, Gu Xinyan didn't have the slightest fear, and didn't even blink his eyes.
He listened to the play with interest.
He knows what the woman is singing, this is an excerpt of Sichuan opera, called Sifan.
Jiang Sanye is the director of the Qingshui Zhenchuan Theater, and usually, he likes to gather everyone to sing in the tea garden of the Association for the Elderly, and he will hum a few words when he has nothing to do. The second uncle Luo Ping is also a loyal ticket holder, and he often takes Gu Xinyan to listen to the play, and sometimes, he will go up and sing a few sentences. Otherwise, he would not have such a good relationship with Jiang Sanye, every time Jiang Sanye went to the mourning family to preside over the funeral, if the mourning family invited Yin and Yang, he would call Luo Ping.
Sifan Gu Xinyan has heard this play, and he also knows some of the lyrics, but he doesn't quite understand the meaning.
It's probably a little nun who is unwilling to be lonely and secretly goes down the mountain to marry a vulgar person, right? What he couldn't understand was, why did he sing for so long for such a simple thing?
Although Gu Xinyan doesn't have much understanding of Sichuan Opera, after hearing and seeing it, he also knows that this woman's singing voice is very good and has some skills.
There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed, and there will be a time when the song ends and people disperse.
I don't know how long it took, but the excerpt came to an end.
The world is changing.
The pergola collapsed, the stage collapsed, and there were dilapidated costumes hanging high on a bamboo, fluttering in the wind, like a person hanging, looking very desolate.
On the bluestone pavement, a group of people walked forward happily.
Gu Xinyan recognized this road, the bluestone road connecting Qingshui Town and Banqiao Town, and he almost walked on it several times a day.
Not everyone in the group was happy.
On the sliding pole, there was a person tied, it was the singing woman, she was tied to the sliding pole like a pig, and was carried forward by two strong men. As in the previous scene, she still has no face, but a few tears flow from the painted eyes and spill on the road.
The picture turned again, Qiao Jiawa, Qiao Liujia.
A middle-aged man with a similar appearance to Qiao Sen drunkenly broke into the house and threw himself at the woman tied to the bed, and a piercing scream rang out.
It's dark.
Some scenes passed by Gu Xinyan's eyes like slides.
It's just some simple daily life, monotonous and ordinary daily life, rough and cruel daily life, and a daily life that has nothing to hope for in life......
Suddenly, the flow of time slowed down.
That was the first time she had seen him.
He was dressed in a school uniform, with a black octagonal hat on his head, a pen pinned to his pocket, red lips and white teeth, piercing eyes, and a high nose bridge that was striking.
The two of them crossed right and wrong on a field.
He looked at her, lowered his head, and smiled shyly, a blush passing across his face.
After a long time, her nose seemed to still have the refreshing smell of sweat on his body.
He is a nephew, and she is his sister-in-law.
At this time, her face is no longer a blank piece of paper, her facial features have become vivid, and a smile often appears at the corner of her mouth. During that time, there were always peach blossoms blooming behind the walled houses, clustering on the branches one by one, like pink clouds. The flowers seemed to open in her heart, and she had renewed hope for life.
Eventually, she got her wish.
At that moment, she felt true joy.
After more than 20 years of life, that is the real life!
But......
Life inevitably has but......
He was gone, went as a soldier, after she told him that he had his child in his belly and wanted to elope with him. Yes, the child is his, and the man who bought her to Qiao Jiawa was pulled into a strong man in his early years and died on the battlefield. However, what she waited for was hell.
He said the words of fierce and generous service to the country, and ran away like a coward, leaving her alone in Qiaojiawa.
The belly is getting bigger day by day, and I can't hide it anymore.
The peach blossoms all over the mountain fell one after another, in front of the ancestral hall, there were dead branches and leaves, and an old man who looked similar to Qiao Liu stood on the stone steps of the ancestral hall, his expression was solemn and his face was gloomy.
He stroked the goatee on his chin and waved his hand.
"So be it!"
With that, he spat thick phlegm on the ground.
Inside the pig cage, she was tied up with a big belly, and several strong men rushed up, lifted the pig cage and went out of the village, along the way, the children were fighting, and from time to time throwing sundries and stones at her, and the women rushed forward and spat on her vigorously, as if they could not prove their chastity.
The face was a blank sheet of paper again, no tears, no sorrow, no fear, no despair, nothing, just blank.
The pig cage is immersed in the pond, and the water is cold, but it is even colder than the water......
The world stopped turning at this moment.
With her was the eternal and piercing coldness, which trapped her like a chain in the cramped pig cage.
It was her hell, a hell from which she could not be escalated.
Until......
Until the night before yesterday, that person, the direct descendant of the coward who escaped, drowned in the pond, which happened to be the place where she was immersed in the pig cage, which is the land where Gu Xinyan is standing now.
She had that man's blood in her belly.
In this way, Qiao Liu has become a medium between her and the outside world, and she finally has a chance to get out of hell and take revenge on Qiao's family!
She won't let it go!
"What do you want?"
Gu Xinyan looked at the void in front of him and said softly.
In the void, there was a gurgling sound of water, and water waves fell from the sky, revealing a white bone. Unlike ordinary white bones, it has the skeleton of a small human in its abdominal cavity. The upper body of the white bone was caged in a pig cage, and the pig cage had a large hole, and the head of the white bone had already been drilled out of the hole.
Bai Gu's left hand was still tightly gripping Gu Xinyan's right wrist.
In the void, there are sound waves.
"Revenge?"
Gu Xinyan frowned.
"Most of your enemies back then didn't even have their bones, who are you going to avenge?"
The sound waves were more violent.
In the distance, the mountains trembled, the trees fell, and the rocks flew sideways, a scene of apocalypse.
"Descendants of the Qiao family?"
Gu Xinyan shook his head.
"This is just indiscriminate killing of innocents, in doing so, you can't escape the end of five thunderstorms in the sky, and you will never be able to live forever, do you still want to be the same as now?"
In the void, there was a faint sound of thunder, and the sky seemed to have been slashed by a giant, and there was a long scar in the northwest.
"Yes! After all, you have to see the real chapter under your hands! ”
Gu Xinyan smiled.
"You can shoot......"
As soon as the words fell, Gu Xinyan fell into the water, the boundless water submerged him, and countless aquatic plants rushed over like octopuses, tightly entangling him.
She made this world, and she is the master of this world.
"Pro!"
Although the aquatic grass rolled Gu Xinyan into a silkworm cocoon and sealed his mouth, eyes, ears, nose and eyes, however, it could not stop Gu Xinyan from speaking out.
Gu Xinyan's whole body was rippling with golden light.
A stone tablet with a little moss crawling on it with a simple shape came out of Gu Xinyan's head and stood behind him.
The stars are changing, and the world is changing again.
In the whirlwind, a strange world emerges.
At the foot is a floating island with a radius of only tens of meters, the stone monument stands on the small slope in the center of the floating island, and the ground is only two meters high, and the section buried in the ground is not known how much?
The sky above the floating island was full of golden runes, like shooting stars, spider webs, or sun......
This is the world that belongs to Gu Xinyan alone, and this is the emptiness in his heart.
The golden light sprinkled down, sprinkled on Gu Xinyan and the plain-clothed woman who was holding the baby in her arms, constantly changing her luster.
Gu Xinyan finally saw her face clearly.
With apricot eyes and peach cheeks, she has a fair complexion, and she is indeed a beauty, but her whole body is filled with a thick black mist.
At this moment, the woman was looking around timidly, and the big-headed baby turned his head restlessly, his eyes full of curiosity, and then he lowered his head, fell on his mother's shoulder, and sobbed.
Countless black qi escaped from the mother and son's body, and finally, condensed into a black ball in the air, which was attracted by a magnet and rushed towards the stone tablet, and finally, as if swallowed, disappeared into nothingness. At the same time, the ground of the floating island shook slightly, and the stone tablet seemed to grow taller, and three runes appeared on the surface of the tablet.
At the beginning, the baby evil spirit was injured by the peach wood talisman that Gu Xinyan put on Luo Ping's body, and Gu Xinyan seized its breath and took the initiative to enter the woman's world.
It looks like you've been caught by a woman's evil spirit.
Then, with his example as bait, he experienced the woman's short life and completely understood the causal cycle, so he played the last hole card and pulled the woman into the void in his heart.
It's his world!
The stele likes to devour all negative energy that resembles a sinister grudge, and it has a powerful power that Gu Xinyan doesn't understand.
Sure enough, the stele deprived the woman of the evil and resentment and other filthy things, and also let her get rid of the pig cage that had been imprisoning her.
In fact, she wanted to get rid of that eternal hell more than revenge.
The woman gently patted the baby's back, trying to stop him from crying, she looked at Gu Xinyan somewhat blankly, at this moment, there was no ferocity, and she looked extremely weak.
Gu Xinyan sighed.
He stepped on his feet and pinched the law with his hands.
"Moo!"
With this soft shout, the golden light rippled up on him, and he raised the sword trick in his hand and pointed forward.
On the stone stele, a door of light suddenly appeared.
Inside the door, the stars twinkled, and the world faintly appeared.
The woman was blessed to her heart, she held the baby and bowed to Gu Xinyanying, and then flew towards the light gate and disappeared in an instant.
In an instant, the light gate was gone.
In the air, there was a faint sound of singing.
Suddenly high-pitched, suddenly low-pitched, and gradually dispersed......
Gu Xinyan sighed and fell to the sky.
In the real world, he was lying motionless on the grass by the pond looking at the moon above his head, his chest rising and falling from time to time, proving that he was still alive.
A tear hung in the corner of his eye for a long time.
