Chapter 44: Yuqiu
The river and the sky are endless, and the eastward flow will never return.
This is the Yuqiudu in the west of the river, located in the right of the river town of Liyang (now Ma'anshan City and County, Anhui Province), across a big river, the east is the left door of the river Dangtu (now Dangtu County, Ma'anshan City, Anhui Province). Since Dangtu goes to the northeast, it is not more than 100 miles, and it is the Liangdu Jiankang City.
Yuqiu Ferry is one of the most important ferries to communicate with Jiangzuo, and it is as famous as Wujiangdu, which was killed by the overlord of Western Chu. Legend has it that in the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Zixu was chased and killed by the King of Chuping, and it was here that he asked the Huansha girl to ask for the fisherman, and then entered Wu, and then broke the strong Chu in the west and defeated Qilu in the north, and achieved the hegemony of Wu. For thousands of years, I still heard the fisherman's song.
The long wind blew the clear waves, on the bank of Yuqiu Ferry, on the river embankment, Pei Guo and Jiuzhen looked at each other, and they were choked and speechless for a while. The two never imagined that they would meet here.
Although Pei Guo sneaked out of Vortex Yang City, Jiu Zhen couldn't bear it anymore after hearing that his uncle Chen Qingzhi was about to march north, and bluntly said that he wanted to go to Voryang with his uncle.
Chen Qingzhi was shocked: "You, you... What are you going to do? Don't... Are you looking for that Pei Guo? ”
Chen Jiuzhen did not shy away from it: "Exactly! ”
Chen Qingzhi jumped like thunder: "Your Majesty has already promised me that I will teach King Jin'an to accept you at the beginning of next year." You, you, you ... How dare you? Do you really want me to Yixing Chen's ashes? ”
Jiuzhen shook his head: "If you don't think about the family, with Jiuzhen's skills, you would have said goodbye... ”
Chen Qingzhi's face was pale, his standing was unsteady, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence: "Since you still know that it is powerful, then you... Why should you be embarrassed, uncle... ”
Jiuzhen knelt heavily on the ground, but his tone was extremely calm: "Thousands of heart knots must be broken in the end." ”
Chen Qingzhi really couldn't resist her, and he knew that Jiu really had an idea, and he was afraid that if he provoked her, he would end up with a chicken and an egg, but it would not be good, so he had to agree stupidly.
So Jiuzhen dressed up as a man, and the two uncles and nephews went on the road together, and when they got down, they crossed the river. Over there, Pei Guo galloped all the way, and it happened that he arrived at Yuqiu Ferry in the afternoon today, and he was trying to find a ferry, but by coincidence, he hit the ferry squarely.
Chen Qingzhi's face was pale, and he hesitated again and again, but finally brushed his sleeves to avoid it, and threw down a sentence: "You two... Shape up or ship out. ”
The sunset is golden, half the river is sorrowful and half the river is red. It turned out that Pei Guo and Jiuzhen were standing silently on the riverside, staring at each other, for a long, long time.
In Pei Guo's heart, there seemed to be a thousand words, but when the words came to his mouth, he could only say one sentence: "I... You... I... Going to go. ”
"Are you coming back?"
"Mostly... No. ”
Jiu Zhen sighed, stopped talking a few times, and finally coughed lightly and asked, "You... Is this just one sentence to me? ”
Pei Guo felt that heaven and man were at war, just a few breaths, but it seemed that dozens of hundreds of years had passed, and he actually felt haggard. In the end, he couldn't raise his head, and his voice was disgusted when he listened to it: "I only wish that the Nine Truths will return to the best and enjoy all the blessings of the world from now on." ”
The flawless face of the nine true white jade, looking forward to it, and being low, and disappointed... Finally, he smiled miserably and said, "Good, very good." Jiuzhen thanked Pei Langjun and wished Pei Langjun to go, play a triumphant song, and return to his hometown with honor. The voice seemed to be flat, but in the end it was trembling.
Pei Guo raised his head suddenly: "Jiuzhen, you... ”
Jiuzhen had turned his back, and his eyes followed the sunset and fell straight down the sparkling river. Pei Guo heard:
"I don't blame the world, I don't blame you, and I don't blame myself. Between you and me, there is destined to be no part, but that's not a big deal. Accept your auspicious words, Jiuzhen must live well and enjoy all the blessings in the world. Say goodbye today, never again. ”
As soon as the words were finished, the shadow of Jiuzhen swayed, passed away like the wind, and soon disappeared between the remnants of the sun and the water. In the eye, only the remaining river water slapped the embankment, making a crackling sound, the wave was broken, and the wave disappeared; In the blink of an eye, the cycle repeats, never stops...
Pei Guozai listened carefully to the words of the Nine Truths, and did not miss a word, thinking that most of the days were going to fall apart and be crumbling, and he didn't want to be as calm as water, and even had a sense of relief.
He was really a little frightened, a little in a trance, and a little incomprehensible, so he just stood quietly and let the river wind and water invade. It wasn't until a long time later, when it was dark, that his hand unconsciously touched the jade pendant on his chest, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
It turns out that the deepest part of my heart has long been engraved in Yingmei, but I don't know it. Now that Yingmei is no more, Jiuzhen's heart knot is gone, and since then I have been alone, hehe, it's good.
It's just that when Jiuzhen left, Jiang Feng sent that faint and low anger, "It turns out that in this world, no one can rely on anyone", stabbed him in the heart, in fact, it really hurts.
