Chapter 135: Space-Time Dislocation
One said that he died of illness, and the other said that he drank the water of the dead cattle and sheep buried by the Huns, and died of plague. Even Sima Qian, who recorded everything in detail, was vague about the cause of Huo Quai's death.
After so many things, since he has been recognized as deceased, Huo Qubing plans to escape with me, hunt and graze outside, and live a life away from the chaos of red dust.
We found a place with abundant water and grass outside the city and settled down, and during the day he went hunting, while I herded the horses and sheep, and the people in the village were kind and kind, and we finally had the ordinary rural life that I had always longed for.
"Sister-in-law Huo, this is the prey that our family hunted today, and I came to give you points." A kind peasant woman in the village brought me a pheasant.
"Thank you, Auntie! How embarrassing is this! "I hurriedly took the prey.
"You're welcome! Now that you've moved here, we've caught more prey than ever before! What a great man your husband is! ”
Huo Qubing is good at riding and shooting, not to mention hunting, and always takes the villagers to hunt a lot of prey, making everyone in the village regard him as a big hero.
After I sent my mother away, I took out Huo Quai's old clothes and took them to the river to wash, I was washing, I heard a sound of horses' hooves, I looked up to see, Huo Qubing rode on horseback and waved to me from afar, it seems that today's harvest is good.
Huo Quzhi was dressed in black coarse cloth, but his usual dress still couldn't hide his heroic spirit, he beat his horse and whipped towards me, I stood up, wiped my hands, and ran towards him with a smile, "Go sick!" ”
A red sun shone on the earth, and my loved ones came to me right in front of me, everything was so beautiful, if everything really could be so beautiful.
My feet slipped, my body lost balance, and I fell into the river, the river was very turbulent, I was washed out several meters away, Huo Quzhi in the distance changed his face, and rushed towards me.
"Lan'er! Be careful! ”
I wanted to grab something, the river was too fast, I couldn't catch anything, I was in a hurry and drank a sip of water, I fluttered a few times, and suddenly, a white light appeared in the sky and pierced my eyes, I blocked it with my hand, barely looked through my fingers, and saw that the surrounding scenery was suddenly distorted and deformed.
I was shocked, such a scene seemed familiar, I looked at Huo Quai, he was still some distance away from me.
No! Is history going to repeat itself again?
Tears flew out of my eyes, and I stretched out my arms and shouted, "Go sick!" ”
The world became distorted and blurred, and for a moment black and white snowflakes appeared like an old TV set, and Huo Quai, who was rushing towards me, suddenly retreated sharply.
"Lan'er!"
I was swept away by the rushing river, and everything happened in a split second of lightning, the sky and the earth were covered with strong light, and the scenery became distorted black and white.
"Go sick! Go sick! I desperately called his name, reaching out to grab him as he got farther and farther away.
"Don't! Go sick! ”
I sat up abruptly, and saw that I was in my room, and I was rushing from crawling to the bathroom, and the person in the mirror was not Mulan, not the Mulan in my dream.
The man in the mirror was pale, his face was full of tears, this person was me, I was back in my world, I fell on the floor, I couldn't restrain the surging tears, this time I didn't forget him, I remember everything in the dream clearly, but I still left that world after all.
No! No! I lie back on the bed, please, go back to the Western Han Dynasty, go back to the era of Huo Qu's disease, I don't want to wake up again! From dark to dark, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't sleep again.
Time passed day by day, I lived like a puppet, thinking about Huo Qu's illness 2,000 years ago, even though we were separated by 2,000 years, I couldn't forget him in my dreams.
Maybe all this is really just a dream, a dream for just one night, but I have experienced it in a dream for a lifetime. When I wake up now, I still hope to be able to return to that dream.
I went to Maoling again, in my dream, Huo Qubing was not buried here, but I still felt that this was a place where I could feel him, and I could tell me that he was a real person, not just my dream.
Life is like a dream, dreams are like life, and I can't tell which is the real life for a long time.
Some people say that time is good medicine, and perhaps for most people, time is indeed a good medicine, which can make people forget the pain, fade away, and let go of obsessions.
But time is not able to smooth everything, some people have some memories, even if they think they have forgotten, faded, let go, but in the dead of night, when they dream back at midnight, they inadvertently remember, and those memories in their hearts will surge again.
It turned out that I never forgot, faded, or let go.
You in my dream are like a cloud condensed above my head, seemingly eternal, but in fact, as soon as the wind blows, you disperse. Sometimes it's like dark clouds, seemingly quiet and peaceful, but in the next second, my world is filled with tears.
All we can do is live well and firmly believe that we will meet one day. And before that day comes, you and I have to be good, endure loneliness, and don't forget our original intentions.
I spent a year traveling to study abroad, traveled to many places, and met a lot of different people. has been walking on the road, experiencing reunions and partings again and again. Maybe this is life, and you can't keep it.
After a year of study abroad, I returned to my hometown and continued to live my real life.
I was on my way home that night when I suddenly noticed a drop of cold falling on my forehead, and when I looked up, one or two drops continued to fall on my face.
The people around said, "It's the first snow!" "It's snowing!"
Flowey said on the phone, "Hey! Why don't you speak! ”
I hurriedly replied, "It's snowing!" ”
Huahua said: "Really? It's time for a traffic jam in that moment, you wait for me at the old place! ”
"Okay."
Hanging up the phone, I reached out to catch a drop of snowflake, it's winter again, time flies so fast, is there snow there in his dream like now?
Pulling his gaze back, he looked ahead, and saw a familiar figure in the crowd. The heroic face, the dark eyes, the slightly raised lips... My heart felt like it had been pounded, and I stared blankly.
Time seemed to stand still, on the street where the first snow fell, the crowd around me seemed to be isolated from me, and I only looked at that person.
He came towards me from the crowd, and as soon as I let go of my hand, what I was holding fell to the ground, and the man reached out to catch the snowflake, and was smiling, just as he had smiled at me the day we parted.
Go sick, is that you?
If you can't come back to me, I comfort myself that I should stop loving you. If I can't see you again, I really want to forget you, forget all of you in my heart. I try to forget you, but I can't.
The man walked towards me, but walked in front of me, as if he didn't see me at all, and I followed him as if I had been hit by a Gu.
He walked into a bookstore, and I followed quickly, and he was flipping through a book, and I picked up a book and pretended to look at it, and moved to his side. I secretly looked at him, like the face in my dream, who was he? If you were sick, how could you not know me?
The man bought the book in his hand and went out of the bookstore, I quickly followed, and suddenly lost his sight in the crowd, I was so anxious that I looked around, and a voice sounded behind me, "Are you looking for me?" ”
I turned around suddenly, and the person who had a similar face to Huo Qu's illness asked me with a smile.
I looked straight at him and said, "You... Remember me? ”
The man smiled and shook his head, "You recognized the wrong person." ”
Maybe it's really the wrong person?
He said to me, "Would you like to go for a cup of coffee?" ”
I nodded, and he pointed ahead, "Let's go!" ”
When we came to the coffee shop, we sat facing each other, and the man smiled, "If you look at me like that again, I'll really feel uncomfortable." ”
I didn't realize that I had been staring at him closely, and hurriedly bowed my head and said, "I'm sorry. ”
"Are you looking for a friend?" He asked.
I looked at him, and now I looked carefully under the light, and I found that he really looked like Huo Quzhi, but it was just like him, he was not Huo Quzhi, my heart was suffocated, and tears were about to fall.
He said, "Maybe you can tell me your name and phone number?" ”
I jerked myself to my feet and said, "I'm sorry! Then, ignoring his stunned appearance, he ran out of the coffee shop in a panic.
I'm really ridiculous, my thoughts are empty, and I would see others as Huo Qu's disease. How long have we been apart? It's been three years, how can that face be forgotten? The eyebrows, the eyes, and the lips should all be deeply rooted in my mind, how can I forget them?
In the past three years, I have had all kinds of dreams, but I have never dreamed of Huo Quai's illness again, and I have never dreamed of the dream that belongs to us.
That night I was drunk, drank a lot of wine, and vented all the pain of three years ago, crying hoarsely at home alone.
Tell me, how can I go through 2,000 years and come back to you? And you, will you wait for me to come back?
The promise was finally made in vain.
When I woke up the next day, I had a splitting headache, received a call from Huahua, and was scolded by her, "I said I'll see you in the old place, but you didn't answer the phone, and I waited alone for two hours, what the hell did you go!" ”
Only then did I remember that I did make an appointment with Huahua last night, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! "I was busy apologizing.
"Honestly, are you confused about reality and dreams again?"
I was silent, and as a good friend of mine, Flowey had always been well aware that I was haunted by dreams.
"Hey! Why are you still like this? Dreams are dreams after all, and you don't have to live in reality when you wake up! ”
"Huahua, I seem to have seen him last night, but it's not him." I hesitated, because I wasn't sure why I was seeing similar people.
