Chapter 10: Dreaming Back to Modern Times

Jiang Qingtian's old poison was cleared and new injuries were added.

Because of her foot injury, although it was not considered strict, Zhen Tianxiong still couldn't let go of her to return to the complicated Xia Mansion, so she had to stay in the Netherworld Valley for a few more days.

Master Shizun is busy, she can't see each other all day, Su Qi doesn't know where to run, her revenge plan can't be implemented for a long time, only Xianglan accompanies her all day long, with the lesson of being thrown off before, Xianglan has become smarter, and it is more difficult to get rid of it than to climb to the sky!

Ever since he left the humble bamboo house, Jiang Qingtian had always wanted to find an opportunity to go up the mountain to find the old Taoist priest again, since he knew that she was not born in this era, it was likely that he also knew how to go back. But Jiang Qingtian was taken to the bamboo house in a coma that day, and her head was also confused when she came out, so even a person like her who has never forgotten it is not sure enough to find the specific location of the bamboo house.

At dinner time, Jiang Qingtian hurriedly ate a few bites and then came to sit on the boulder in front of the Netherworld Cave, looking at the green mountains opposite stupidly, just wanting to find that trace of green smoke, although she didn't find a little eyebrow for a few days of squatting, but she still had a glimmer of hope in her chest: it is impossible for the old Taoist priest not to eat, it is impossible to cook without a fire, and it is impossible to make a fire without smoke, right?

A gust of wind blew, and a trace of cool air swept in, and Jiang Qingtian couldn't help but shiver.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and Jiang Qingtian turned around and saw that it was Xianglan, so he relaxed.

Xianglan smiled, gently put a light but warm cloak on her shoulder, and asked, "Miss, are you looking for something?" ”

Jiang Qingtian looked at Xianglan in surprise and asked, "Why do you ask that?" ”

Xianglan bent down to dust off the stones, sat down beside Jiang Qingtian, and replied: "Since Miss came down from the medicine mountain, she has been restless all day, it seems that she has something on her mind, and every morning and dinner after dinner, she has to come here to sit here for an hour or two, staring at the medicine mountain motionlessly, as if she was tied to the mountain. ”

Jiang Qingtian didn't know how to answer this question, and after thinking about it, he decided to say that he was enjoying the scenery, "I ......", and didn't want to be cut off by Xianglan as soon as he spoke.

"Don't tell the slave that you are enjoying the beautiful scenery, I have never seen a person who appreciates the beautiful scenery like you, such as the old scenery, the same angle, it is not boring for a few days!"

Looking at Xianglan's inquiring expression, Jiang Qingtian decided not to explain again, but just smiled meaningfully, and continued to cast his gaze on the medicine mountain opposite.

"Xianglan, do you believe in cause and effect?"

"I don't believe it."

"Oh?"

"Some people are dedicated to goodness, helping the poor and helping the poor, and benevolence can be seen by the sun and the moon; Some people have ill intentions, kill and decide, and punish evil deeds if they succeed. However, the bad people can continue to do evil and get away with it, while the good people are subject to restrictions everywhere and often do not achieve good results. If there is really karma, then those scum who have done all the evil deeds and lost their conscience have already received the retribution they deserve, and none of them will die well! It can be seen that if this god doesn't have eyes, he will be blind! Ignore the likes and dislikes of the world, and turn black and white upside down! ”

Jiang Qingtian didn't expect Xianglan to be so indignant, and the murderous aura in her eyes quickly spread along with the loud words, and the surroundings were a little colder.

After a few months of getting along, Jiang Qingtian knew that although Xianglan didn't smile often, she was a kind-hearted person, and she never hurt people for no reason with her stunts.

Jiang Qingtian didn't say anything to comfort Xianglan, no matter how much comfort she had, it was just honey, and she couldn't solve any pain except sweetness. In her opinion, everyone has scars on their bodies, and only when they feel the pain will they know to protect themselves. People need to grow, but the process is arduous and painful. In this world of wits and courage, in this turbulent martial arts, occasionally uncover the scars, turn over the old things, and reminisce about the pain that was once unforgettable, only then will you know how precious life is and how difficult life is.

Jiang Qingtian patted Xianglan's shoulder and said, "Let's go back", then stood up, and before leaving, he glanced at the verdant medicine mountain and the yellow sunset, with loss and relief in his eyes, and muttered meaningfully: "The sun has set, let it be." ”

Xianglan followed Jiang Qingtian's gaze, and after a moment, she shook her head and quickly followed Jiang Qingtian's footsteps. She has been by Xia Xue'er's side since she was a child, and Xia Xue'er can roughly guess what she is thinking in her heart, but this Xia Xue'er in front of her is no longer the carefree girl she used to be, only one coma, she has completed the transformation from a blank piece of paper to a picture scroll, how difficult it is to see through her!

That night, Jiang Qingtian changed his habit of reading ancient books before going to bed, and went to bed early to rest. Maybe it's because I'm tired, and as soon as I get on the bed, I fall asleep in a daze.

Before she knew it, she had come to a strange dense forest, where the leaves of the shuttle trees were accompanied by insects and birds, and the birds and beasts shuttled between them, and they would not run away when they saw her. She was puzzled, but not afraid, walking aimlessly alone in the forest, when suddenly a heavy fog rose up, which not only blocked her vision, but also blinded her heart. In the vast white mist, a qiē sound suddenly disappeared, Lin Zijing was terrifying, Jiang Qingtian felt a strong sense of fear rise in her heart, she could only grope her way forward, not knowing what danger was waiting for her in front of her, and she didn't know what danger was following her behind her. She just instinctively walked forward, with no sense of direction. The future is out of sight for a moment.

"Girl still can't let go?" A vicissitudes of sound sounded in the forest, penetrating the dense fog and penetrating into Jiang Qingtian's ears, although the sound was small, it was extremely clear. Jiang Qingtian heard that it was the voice of a mountain man, looked around but couldn't see anyone, so he could only ask in a trembling voice in the thick fog: "What can't you let go?" ”

"Your past, your past life."

"How do you know that I can't let it go?"

"Only those who are too obsessed with it can come to my foggy forest."

"Since the Taoist Master is well-versed in the past and the present, can see through a qiē, and can foresee the future, then how can the Taoist master know how to return to the era that belongs to me?"

"The old Tao said that everything in the world has a cause and effect, and if there is an effect, there must be a heart, and cause and effect are born together. Your past life is your cause, and this life is your effect, and the old Tao said that you no longer belong to the original era, so why should you be attached to yourself. ”

Jiang Qingtian said incredulously: "How come? I am a person of the 21st century, and I only came to this era by accident, and I do not belong to this era! ”

"This is your time, you live for others, and you live for yourself, Xia Xue'er is Jiang Qingtian, Jiang Qingtian is Xia Xue'er. The fate has been changed, the reincarnation has passed, and there is no going back. ”

After going through so many things, although she had already realized that she could not go back, there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart, it was that hope that supported her to survive, and now, the only remaining glimmer of hope was also extinguished, disappeared without a trace, and her heart suddenly felt empty, she could only repeat it: "You are talking nonsense, you will definitely be able to go back, you will definitely be able to ......"

"The girl is too obsessed, she needs to see it with her own eyes to understand."

Jiang Qingtian squatted down in disappointment, looking at the vast white mist, but his eyes were empty, and he only repeated vigorously: "I can definitely go back, I will definitely be able to go back......"

The fog gradually lifted, and what appeared in front of me was not a dense forest but a bustling city: noisy streets, speeding cars, busy crowds, glare traffic lights, scrolling advertising screens...... However, no one on the crowded street noticed Jiang Qingtian who suddenly fell from the sky, no one stopped to look at her in strange costumes, even if she was excited like a madman to pounce on someone and take the initiative to talk to someone, no one paid attention to her.

A voice that has traveled through the millennium sounded at the right time: "Don't waste your efforts, you are just a wandering spirit, they can't see you." ”

As soon as the Dao Chief's words fell, a young man on a bicycle passed through Jiang Qingtian's body, and she and he were both safe and sound. Jiang Qingtian opened his eyes and looked at this incredible qiqi, with a faint sense of loss in his heart, as if he understood something.

It was another whirlwind, and this time Jiang Qingtian appeared in a cemetery. The tombstones were solemnly lined up there, looking coldly at the passing of a qiē, lonely, lonely.

Jiang Qingtian looked at the backs of those in black dresses from a distance, and he could vaguely identify one or two. She stepped forward, and her picture was prominently pasted on the marble tombstone, smiling so brightly, so beautiful, but unfortunately not in color. At the head of the crowd were her closest relatives. , who hasn't seen his father for many years, is handsome and chic, and he seems to have given birth to a few strands of hair; My mother, who has always been full of energy, also has a lot of tiredness on her face. Standing behind her parents was her grandfather, the old couple who loved her the most, supporting and snuggling each other, crying silently, and their red and swollen eyes showed their reluctance and pain in their hearts. Jiang Qingtian stretched out his hand in distress to wipe away their tears, but his pale little hand passed through their weather-beaten faces, and he couldn't touch anything but air.

Is this her funeral?

Jiang Qingtian stood beside her grandfather, watching her relatives and friends bow to the tombstone with her photo one by one, until people left the cemetery one after another, Jiang Qingtian sat alone on the ground, leaning against the cold tombstone, slowly closing her eyes, wanting to find a sense of familiarity and security.

She's dead, whether she wants to believe it or not, it's a fact that can't be changed. Now she is just a ghost, a ghost who wanders between heaven and earth, a ghost who can only live in the memories of others.

I don't know how long it took, Jiang Qingtian was disturbed by the approaching footsteps, opened her eyes, and at this moment standing in front of her was her boyfriend who couldn't let go, holding a large bouquet of sunflowers she loved, Jiang Qingtian happily immediately stood up and pounced on him and hugged him tightly, thinking day and night, finally seeing him, how could she not be excited!

"Sunny, I'm sorry."

Jiang Qingtian was puzzled and let go of the boy, excuse me? What do you mean?

"Jiaojiao and I originally didn't have the face to see you, but I also want to send you on the last ride, there are some things I think I should let you know." The boyfriend glanced at his girlfriend affectionately and continued: "I've been with her for a year, and I've been hiding it from you just because I don't know how to say it to you. In the eyes of outsiders, you are always so optimistic and strong, only I know the weakness in your heart, you have suffered so many grievances, you are afraid of betrayal, you are afraid of abandonment, but I have done the two things that hurt you the most. ”

After Jiang Qingtian heard this, he took a few steps back and stumbled to the ground, looking at the two people in front of him in disbelief, a caring boyfriend who accompanied him through five spring and autumn seasons, and a girlfriend who had been inseparable from him since he was a child, how could she accept such a thing! Tears flowed down her cheeks, but they evaporated before they slipped to the ground.

The best friend on the side squatted down, stroked the cold tombstone and said: "Sunny day, the reason why we chose to sue you today is that I don't want to live in guilt for you for the rest of my life, I have known you for eighteen years, and I have already regarded you as my dearest sister, and you have been taking care of me and tolerating me in these eighteen years, for which I am very grateful, but I am also more sorry." I know you can't live without him, but I also love him just as much, so let me take care of him for you from now on, okay? Forgive me for my selfishness, I long for your blessings. As he spoke, he couldn't stop the tears pouring out.

The boy squatted down, gently hugged the girl into his arms, and only let go after she calmed down, the two looked at the tombstone for a while, and said: "You have lived too hard in this life, I only hope that you can find true happiness in heaven." With that, he put down the sunflower in his hand and turned to leave.

Jiang Qingtian looked at the backs of the two of them drifting apart, and didn't want to cry, but felt that his heart was empty, which was sad and lamentable. She turned around and stroked the little face printed on the paper on the tombstone and said to herself, "Jiang Qingtian, can you feel it?" I'm back, but you're gone, he's gone, they're gone, and I miss you and I miss you... He. "There is no one in this world who she can't let go, they will all be well, they will all be happy, the people who once desperately wanted to come back, and the people who thought about her in their hearts have already regarded her as the past, put it in their memory, maybe only occasionally remember. Tears flowed down and soaked his face,

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw many people standing by the bed, all of them with worries written on their faces, and they wanted to speak, but they found that tears were unconsciously coming out of their eyes.

"Xue'er don't cry, it's good to wake up, it's good to wake up!"

Yes, when the body wakes up, the heart will wake up with it. "There is a cause and effect of a thing in the world, there must be a cause and effect, cause and effect are born together, and they are one, and too much obsession with "cause" and ignoring "effect" often leads to unsatisfactory endings. Enough is enough, knowing how to let go and accept is the best fulfillment", she understands everything, as long as she is given time, she can let go of everything in the past, Jiang Qingtian is dead, here, she is not Jiang Qingtian, she only does Xia Xue'er!
