Chapter 553: Mirror
(a)
In the event of City C, in the end, I achieved a good result, won the first place in the two events in the group stage and entered the final, and then won a silver medal and a bronze medal in the final. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
I never expected to win a medal in the national league, I just used it as a hobby.
This is also the first time I have participated in the national league, and I can get such results, and I can explain to the school when I go back, and I can also make Coach Wang ecstatic. The success of the provincial league and the national league is enough to cement your position and keep you in charge of the shooting team for a long time.
I let out a long sigh of relief: I finally had a good ending, and I didn't delay things because of my whims, and I didn't cause you to pay more.
I have been depressed since I saw the rape field, but at this time, I can be regarded as completely regaining my brightness.
After receiving the medals and attending the closing ceremony, we were ready to return.
Due to the low number of trains between the two places and the shortage of tickets, we only booked tickets for the next day, and we also needed to stay in City C for one night before we could embark on the return journey.
By the time we left, a lot of the players had already left. The hotel seemed a bit empty.
Because the competition delayed a lot of homework, I stayed in the hotel at night to do my homework, and you said that you had something to do on the street, so I went out alone. You told me not to leave the room, to go to bed early after washing, and to pack up the next day's things before going to bed. I said yes to them all.
After taking a shower and washing my hair, I spread the 20 rolls and homework papers that the head teacher asked me to bring on my desk, turned on the small desk lamp, and lowered my head to write. I quickly forgot about the world around me and became immersed in mathematical formulas and English words.
It was only when you knocked on the door outside that I realized I was outside in the hotel. I looked up at the electronic clock and it was already 10 o'clock in the evening.
It's so late, you're knocking on the door, is there anything important?
(b)
You appear at the door with a surprised look on your face. You have a mirror in your hand. It's the mirror I've seen on your desk in your office, with a blue reflection like a lake.
You should be using a razor to trim your face, because although you have wiped it, there is still a slight white shaving foam left on your face.
With a razor's knife holder in one hand and the mirror in the other, you appeared at my door with a look of surprise on your face.
You say, "I'm sorry to knock on the door so late." Can I come in? ā
I nodded and said, "Of course." ā
I've opened the door a little and let you in.
I look at you and ask, "Guide, are you done?" Is there anything I can help with? ā
You say, "It's done." I came back at 9 o'clock, ready to wash up first, and then come and tell you to turn off the lights and rest, and then rest myself. ā
You say, "Idealism, can you do me a favor?" ā
I said, "Absolutely." What's busy? ā
You hand me the mirror in your hand.
I took the mirror.
You say, "Can you help me see what's in the mirror?" ā
I look at you quizzically, then look down at the mirror in my hand.
My confused expression was reflected in the mirror, as well as the lamp on the ceiling.
I said, "It's me in the mirror, and the lamp on my head, nothing special." It's just the image that you would have in an ordinary mirror. ā
You say, "Really?" ā
You take the mirror and look inside again.
I'm looking at you. I said, "What's the matter, guide?" ā
You say, "Could you please look at it again, and we'll see it together?" ā
I nodded.
We looked at the mirror together.
You say, "Don't you see that?" ā
I asked, "What do you see?" It's still the same as before, only our reflection in the mirror. ā
You say, "Is it me, alone, who will see?" ā
You say, "I just called the room attendant to come and see it, and she said nothing special." ā
I look at you and say, "Do you see anything else different?" ā
You say, "Yes." ā
You put down the mirror, your face slightly pale.
I've never seen a look like this.
I got worried. I asked, "Guidance?" What do you see? ā
(c)
After a moment's hesitation, you replied, "I was just about to trim my face in the bathroom mirror, and as soon as I put on the foam, an old woman with gray hair and a wrinkled face appeared in the mirror. She was dressed in the silk garment of the ancient times with wide robes and large sleeves, and embroidered with gold thread with a phoenix with wings spreading, with ornate patterns and excellent workmanship. She had her white hair scattered and a flower-drawing comb inlaid with large gems in her hand, and looked at me in the mirror. ā
You say, "I'm surprised." I stopped all my movements, and with the lather on my chin, I looked at the old woman closely. I felt very close in my heart, as if I was seeing a loved one who had been absent for a long time. I couldn't take my eyes off her face. Although she is very old, her eyes are clear, the contours of her face are still very beautiful, and her face is dignified and kind, and it can be seen that she should be a beauty with outstanding appearance when she is young. We just looked at each other through the mirror. ā
You say, "Then, I heard her voice clearly and saw her lips fluttering. She spoke clearly to me and asked, "Who are you?" Are you the one I've missed all my life? ā
You say, "I can't help but take a step backwards." Her words, like a bullet, pierced through my heart. ā
You say, "I left the bathroom mirror, walked into the bedroom, stabilized my mind, rubbed my eyes, and walked to the mirror again." She's still there. She said, "Why did you leave last time?" ā
I reached for the towel, wiped the foam off my face, and went back to the bedroom. I pulled out this mirror from my sports bag. I looked in the mirror. Once again, her image appears in the mirror. ā
You say, "So I found the phone, called room service, and said I needed an extra towel." After a while, a waitress came to deliver towels, and I asked her to help me look at the mirror in the bathroom and this mirror, and she said there was nothing wrong with it. She didn't see anything special, unusual. I thanked her, and she opened the door and went out. ā
You say, "I want to double-check, so I came here and knocked on your door." ā
I look at you in amazement. However, I understand your feelings at the moment.
I said, "Can you still see her now?" ā
You nodded.
I looked at the mirror in your hand again.
I shook my head at you and said, "Still nothing." ā
I look at your expression, and I can hear your heart pounding. I cherish you very much in my heart.
I said, "Why don't I go to your room and look at the bathroom mirror." ā
You say, "Okay." ā
(iv)
You push open the bathroom door and turn the light on.
I walked in and faced the bathroom mirror.
Oh my God, a gray-haired, graceful old woman appeared in the mirror. I was stunned for a moment, and then I wanted to focus on her face.
Just then, I heard a banging in my hand.
The glass on the mirror I was holding in my hand suddenly cracked on its own, split into several sides, fell off the mirror, and hit the tiled floor.
You say, "Be careful! ā
Instinctively, I took a step back and let go of the mirror's handle, and the mirror fell to the ground in its entirety, shattering the glass on the ground and splashing it all over the ground.
It ruined.
I looked at the shards of glass all over the floor, and I said apologetically, "I'm sorry, guide." But I didn't touch it. It shattered on its own. I don't know what's going on. ā
You also look at the shards of glass on the ground, and you say, "I know, it shattered on its own." ā
We looked at each other, and then, together, we looked side by side at the bathroom mirror.
Our confused expressions are clearly reflected in the mirror.
I asked, "Is she still there?" ā
You don't have a voice.
I look back at you.
You look straight in the mirror and you say, "She's gone." ā
Because I showed up, she was gone.
Because I am already with you, she can safely disappear into the darkness of history.
I couldn't have seen her face, I could only glimpse a shadow of her dissipating.
We can't be at the same time.
You look at me. You bow your head. You say, "She won't show up again." ā
I'm looking at you.
You say, "I know." The mirror shattered, and she would never be seen again. ā
I look at you and can't speak.
You say sadly, "Because she fell down and died." ā
You turn away, your back to the mirror.
You say, "She just died." ā

Do we really know who we are?
Are we really who we think we are?
(f)
Back then, when we visited Yuanjue Monastery together, Grand Lama Tubudan once predicted to me that we would have the opportunity to meet each other after we returned to Yunjing to say goodbye to each other. However, the time is far away and beyond our imagination.
His prophecy is being fulfilled.
In this way, I finally saw you in this life at the end of my life.
And when this meeting finally happens, I am standing beside you in this life.
We're together again.
Although we are together, we are still imprisoned in our own loneliness.
Because we can't see the things in samsara clearly, we are imprisoned in our own solitude.
Therefore, to break through loneliness, it is not enough to have deep love. It also requires the wisdom to see everything.
The supreme wisdom of omniscience and enlightenment. (To be continued.) )
