Chapter 6 Who is the man of fate?
"Nemo, it's really you!" She stared at him and muttered. My heart was also shocked, why, Po Sumi actually knew Mulian? Nemo, his original name was Nemo? A whole bunch of question marks appeared in front of my eyes.
Mu Lian still looked calm, but said lightly: "It's me." β
Po Sumi's face turned pale, and it took a while for a while to say a sentence, "You...... All right. β
Mu Lian smiled lightly, "I'm fine." β
She took two steps forward, and suddenly seemed to have found something, and her face turned even paler, "You, what's wrong with your eyes, you can't see?" β
Mu Lian tilted her head slightly and did not speak.
I stared at the two of them blankly, what was the relationship between these two people before?
Bhasura wanted to take another step forward, but hesitated again, but for a moment, her face had returned to its previous calm, "Xiao Yin, we should go back." β
I nodded, glanced back at Mulian, and he closed his eyes and smiled, as if he knew I was looking at him, and nodded lightly at me.
On the way back, Posumi didn't say anything.
"That, do you know each other with Mu Lian?" It wasn't until I fell asleep that I finally couldn't help but ask.
She glanced at me, sighed softly, and said, "Ten years ago, in Qunu City, who didn't know that Master Nemo was born, he spent a lot of money, and lingered in the Fengyue Field all day long, and he used to be my master's benefactor, and at that time, I, tooβ" A strange look suddenly flashed on her face, "I haven't become a ...... of Ganica yet"
She didn't finish her sentence, but she also surprised me, I couldn't imagine that the lotus-like person was actually a merry boy before, what was it that made him change so much? Thinking of his smile in the wind, I can't associate him with the word Merry in any way.
"He's changed a lot now, and though his appearance hasn't changed, he's no longer the Nemo I knew. Mulian, this name is very suitable for him now. She said quietly, silent for a moment. She laughed again, "Okay, don't care about that person, it's been so many years, and I'm just feeling emotional." β
Looking at her changing expressions, my heart was also in turmoil, could it be that Mu Lian was her destined person? But it wasn't like that, he wasn't her guest, and he didn't have a diamond-shaped mark on his forehead.
What the hell is going on?
"By the way, Xiao Yin, Namoro-sama ......" She seemed to stop talking.
"What's wrong?"
"Lord Namora, he's a good man." She suddenly said this without a clue.
"Do you like Namoro-sama?" I also suddenly blurted out that the attitude of Bhasami towards Namara seemed to be different from that of other guests, as if I didn't care about him, but I seemed to care about him very much.
Po Sumi smiled slightly, "If you like it or if you don't like it, you just need to remember that he is a good guest." β
"I mean, if ......"
"Xiao Yin, there are some things, there is never an if." She blocked back what I wanted to ask.
If someone really likes you and wants to take you away, will you say yes? I silently repeated in my heart that one day, I would ask this sentence.
===========================================
With a stomach full of questions, the next day I wanted to go to the Ganges River to find Mulian and ask for clarification. As soon as I went out, I saw Namora dressed in blue.
"Where are you going so early?" He seemed to be in a good mood.
"You don't care where you go." I replied angrily.
"What a bold man, how dare you be rude to an adult!" The guards beside him immediately roared viciously.
"Stand down." Namoro frowned slightly, and the guard immediately took a few steps back in fear.
"I've heard that Vasumi will bring your trial forward, so you should perform well then." He raised an eyebrow and smiled lightly.
I looked up at him and said, "That's none of your business, I'm ......" As my gaze swept over his forehead, the second half of the sentence swallowed back in surprise. God, I guess I read that right, a light red diamond pattern appeared on his forehead!
"You, you......" I pointed to his forehead, speechless with excitement.
"Why, you forgot, this is a good thing you did." He grabbed my hand, gently placed it on his forehead, and said, "You can't smash it lightly." β
What good do I do? After a closer look, I blurted out that this is really a scar, but how can the world be so coincidental, but it just leaves a diamond-shaped scar? Don't...... My mind suddenly became clear, could it be that the fateful person of Bhasumi was smashed out by me? So Moro is the person I'm looking for? When I thought of this, my heart seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and I just looked at him with a smile, so that as long as he was willing to take Posumi, I would be able to end this painful day and go back soon!
"You don't have to be happy to be like this, it depends on how you do then, but don't worry, you'll get more experience and fun from me." His words quickly pulled me back from my ecstasy.
"What?" I looked at him confused, "I didn't hear anything about what you were doing just now." β
He stared at me, and suddenly laughed, "I said, are you so happy to listen to me again?" β
"W-what!" My head buzzed, "Hu, nonsense, you are my master's most welcome guest." β
He smiled meaninglessly, "It's because I'm the most welcoming guest of Po Sumi." β
I was stunned, and hurriedly calmed myself down, the top priority at the moment is to quickly find a way to let Namora take Posumi away, as for the trial or not, this is not Baghdad, and there are not so many demons and monsters, and it is a big dream to take advantage of me.
"But in this case, aren't you afraid that Sister Po Sumi will be sad?" I suddenly remembered Po Sumi's vague and inexplicable words yesterday, and Po Sumi also seemed to have a good impression of him.
"Sad?" He burst out laughing as if he had heard something very ridiculous, "Posumi, she...... Do you have a heart, too? From the first day she became Ganica, she abandoned her heart. β
"You're not her, how do you know what she's thinking, yes, in the eyes of people, even if Ganica has more skills and can write beautiful poetry, she is just a playmate in bed, a fun toy. But Can't Ganica have her own feelings, can't she have someone she likes? Do you have to sell your heart when you sell your body, tell you, she didn't lose her heart, she just didn't dare to take it out, of course, I'm afraid that the men who came here, including you, the adults," I stepped forward and looked up at him: "I'm only interested in her body." As for her heart, who cares. β
His smile faded from his face, and he stared at me for a moment, then turned away.
Looking at his back, a new worry came to my heart, how much does Moro care about Bhasumi? Will I take her away as I wish? Looks like I'm going to have to work harder. When I found Mulian by the Ganges, I looked at him with a comfortable face, but I didn't know how to ask.
He smiled, "I think she must have told you about my past." β
"Do you remember Posumi?"
"Po Sumi, she's still using that name, I remember she seemed to be a little girl then." He said lightly.
"So, why?" I paused, "Of course, if you don't want to say it, I won't force you." β
"Mulian is the name that Master gave me." He spoke leisurely, and the snow-white sarro petals gently floated on his shoulders and slid to the ground. If he doesn't speak, it's like a casually sketched but elegant painting.
=============================
"My real name is Nemo, my father is a powerful Brahmin patriarch, my mother is his cousin, and I heard that my parents sacrificed many lives to win this position. Since I was born, I have been cared for by everyone, and when I grew up, not only did I achieve nothing, but I also wandered in the land of fireworks all day long, and after the death of my loving parents, I still spent a lot of money as usual, and did not restrain at all, until my master appeared, and he said that my parents had done too many sins in this life, and after their death, they had fallen into purgatory, and they were tortured day and night. β
His tone was flat, as if he was saying something that didn't concern him.
"Naturally, I was skeptical, but Master opened my eyes to the heavens and let me see my parents' suffering in purgatory," he paused, a rare and complicated look flashed on his face, "As a son of man, how can I bear to let my parents fall to this, so I devoted myself to practicing Buddhism under Master's guidance, chanting sutras all day long, hoping to atone for my parents' sins and reincarnate as a human as soon as possible." β
"But your eyes ......," I asked hesitantly.
"Master said that as soon as the eyes of heaven were opened, it was difficult to seal them, and the suffering of my parents appeared before my eyes every day, and I destroyed my eyes in order to concentrate on practicing the Dharma."
"What, you blinded yourself!" I was shocked.
He smiled slightly, "Hidden, you know what? Sometimes you can see more clearly with your eyes closed. Feeling the birth and death of life day after day by the Ganges, my heart is becoming more and more clear, whether it is a Brahmin or a Shudra, whether rich or poor, whether beautiful or ugly, happy or sad, everything will come to death, and after death, everything will disappear without a trace. In this case, what is there to fight for in this world? β
"But, Mulian, aren't you fighting for it?" I looked at him.
He was slightly stunned, "Fight for what?" β
I sat down next to him and smiled, "Fight for your parents' next life." β
"If you can really see it, you can ignore your parents, anyway, even if they are reincarnated as human beings, they will also die, so what's the point of living. Besides, if they are reincarnated as human beings and do something wrong, they may be punished again after death, can you care about them for the rest of their lives? β
He turned his head, a thin layer of mist between his brows. I was stunned for a moment, this was the first time I had seen him look like this.
I took a deep breath, gently pressed his shoulder, stared into his eyes, and whispered: "Listen to me, flowers do not bloom for the sake of withering, stars do not exist for the sake of disappearing, and in the same way, a person's life is not for the sake of death. β
His eyelashes trembled slightly, and his silky hair swept across my cheeks with the breeze, gentle as if it were a lover's touch, and a very faint lotus fragrance permeated the air, "No one ever ...... Said these things to me. He whispered, but the corners of his lips curled slightly.
"Maha Zhina must be a special country, that's why there is a special person like you." He smiled.
I nodded vigorously, not caring if he saw it or not, "Of course, the country of Maha Zhina is a very great and special country, but it's a pity that the road is too far, otherwise you can go and see it." But......" I rolled my eyes, "Forget it, what if you see it, according to you, what if you see more things, anyway, when you die, everything will disappear, and I don't know what it will be in the next life." β
He smiled dumbly and shook his head gently at me.
"You, why did you ...... with Po Sumi," a hint of confusion flashed across his face.
"Because of me, I'm going to be Ganika soon."
"Ganica?" He seemed a little surprised, "Why would you want to be Ganica?" β
I let go of his shoulders, stood up, looked at the sparkling river, and said, "I'm different from Mulian, there are things I want to fight for in this world, there are people I want to protect, and there are goals I want to achieve, so ......"
I glanced at Mulian, but he didn't speak, just sat quietly. My heart moved, in fact, he was not for the people he wanted to protect.
=====================
When I went back, it was time for Ulworthi to teach dance, and I forgot about those complicated gestures and movements, so I had no choice but to draw them and follow the poses, and Ulworthi could only shake his head when he saw me.
"Xiao Yin, you have to hurry up and learn, because I will leave in a few days." As she spoke, she carefully flipped the large pile of bamboo poles under her feet.
"Are you leaving?" I don't feel anything about this eccentric beauty, it seems that she has no other hobbies than collecting bamboo poles, and she doesn't like to talk, I really don't know how she became friends with Po Sumi.
"Yes, I've been here for too long." She stood up, a flash of helplessness and disappointment in her eyes.
Since she likes bamboo poles so much, I should also find a few for her as a parting gift before she leaves.
"Xiao Yin, have you seen Miss Po Sumi?" Dama, the maid who was with her, hurriedly walked over, and when she saw me, she seemed to have a look of relief on her face.
I shook my head and said, "What's wrong?" β
Dama whispered cautiously, "I can't find her anywhere, and Lord Namoro has been waiting for her for a long time." β
"Can't you let someone else accompany him first?" I frowned.
"Lord Namoro said that she only needs Miss Posumi to accompany her today, or" She hesitated for a moment, and then said in a hesitant sentence, "Or Miss Yin." β
I stared at her for a long time without speaking, and then thought that maybe it was a good opportunity to win over the two of them, so I nodded and said, "In this case, I'll go to the top for a while, you hurry up and look for her, you must find her." β
As soon as I entered the room of Bhasumi, I was greeted by the smell of wine, the aroma of Sumo wine peculiar to this era, and Namora was reclining on the side of the big bed, looking at me as if he was drunk. His brown eyes were slightly drunk, and a hazy mist floated under his eyes, like morning dewdrops. "Where's Posumi?" His speech was still very clear.
"She'll be here soon," I sat down to myself.
He suddenly laughed, pressed his forehead lightly, and said, "What have you learned?" Is this the hospitality of the future Garnica? β
"You also said it was the future Ganika, so Namoro-sama, I'm not here to receive guests. However, you are my Master's most important guest, so I came here to greet you for Master first, and it was just to say hello. I said with a smile.
"Come here." He smiled.
"What?" I looked wary.
"Come and help me press my shoulder." He said rather amusedly, "Don't worry, I won't eat you." β
I hesitated, but walked over, gently put my hand on his shoulder, he glanced at me, and suddenly a strange smile appeared on his lips, and he grabbed my hand, pulled and pulled, and when I didn't react at all, he pressed under me.
"Alas......" he actually sighed first.
"What are you sighing for!" I glared at him, and now this position seems to be a loss for me.
"Look at your reaction is no different from a piece of wood, how can you make a man have desire." He shook his head.
"If you don't get up yet, this piece of wood will definitely make you want to cry." I raised an eyebrow at him.
The corners of his mouth curved upward, he lowered his head, leaned over my ear and said, "If you go on like this, you will never be able to surpass Posumi." β
"So, my lord, do you like her?" I asked hurriedly.
"Who doesn't like that kind of beauty."
"So, my lord, will you like it with her heart?" Even though the pose is ambiguous now, I continue to ask about what I want to know.
Hearing me ask, Namoro smiled and stood up. His gaze unintentionally swept over me, stopping at the small pillow painted with a ballot flower next to the bed.
Half a piece of paper was exposed under the pillow, and then Moro was a little soothed?
The farthest distance in the world
Not the distance between life and death
but I stand before you
You don't know I love you
Listening to him read it softly, I was also a little surprised, I didn't expect that Po Sumi had been remembering this poem.
"The poem ......" Namora's face seemed to be moved.
I lowered my head, avoiding his gaze, having already made a decision in my heart, and only heard my own low voice: "It should have been written for Lord Namoro." β
Namoro's fingers trembled slightly, and he put the paper into his arms, and did not speak for a long time, and only after a long time did he say, "She's a good girl, butβshe's a Ganika......"
I couldn't help but think of what Posumi said, no matter how much praise Ganika received on the surface, it still couldn't eliminate the contempt that people hid in their hearts, and in the eyes of everyone, no matter how beautiful Ganika was, he was just a playmate in bed.
"Even Ganica has the right to like others, and," I said, looking up at him, "sir, you have the power to make her no longer Ganica." β
His gaze narrowed, and he clearly understood what I meant.
"As long as you're willing to take a step forward, the farthest distance in the world will be β disappear."
His expression was complicated, and after looking at me for a while, he turned and walked out the door, and when he was about to walk out of the door, he stopped, and said as if he had made up his mind: "Tell me that the farthest distance in the world will definitely disappear." However, I need a little time. βοΌ
I stayed for a while, until his back disappeared in front of me, I reacted, and my heart suddenly burst into joy, it seems that today's results are not small, as long as Namora is willing to take away Bhasumi, then everything is over!
I patted the clothes on my body and was about to leave, when I suddenly noticed that there was a piece of paper under the pillow, and my heart moved, so I pulled out the one too.
There were no words on the paper, just a picture, a man.
This man's eyebrows and eyes look very much like Mu Lian, but he is younger and more energetic than Mu Lian, especially those radiant eyes, which make people's hearts unconsciously happy.
It's just that when I focused my eyes on one part of the painting, I immediately felt my mouth dry and my head went blank.
The man who looked like Mu Lian had a diamond-shaped pattern on his forehead!
I felt a strong uneasiness in my heart - could it be that I had made a mistake?
