Tales of the Third World (43)
"Why are you talking to me about this?" Su Hang also saw another world, but he didn't have so many ideas, he just felt that he should leave a way back, but Liu Bai's words also aroused the ambition in his heart that should have been hidden deeply, no one was willing to be mediocre, he just didn't dare before.
He remembered that there was once a young girl, with red hair, who was incomparably beautiful in the newborn sun, and she asked, 'Am I beautiful?' ’
"Beautiful!" Su Hang said in his heart, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and the curved amplitude was very comfortable.
"Rubbing the Su machine makes me very uncomfortable, I am stubborn and self-serving, and I exude a disgusting aura all over my body, at least I don't hate you, and it just so happens that we have the same experience, and the road to the outside is very lonely, and someone needs to understand and need someone to walk with me. You and I go together? ”
"Peers?"
"Peer!"
Su Hang suddenly felt that Liu Bai's outstretched hand was also shining, so he held that hand, it was warm, just right, and very comfortable.
"I've been lonely since I was a child, can I trust you?" Past life has always erected too high a wall in his heart.
"I'm just the opposite of you, in Liucheng I can say that I can do whatever I want, there are endless flatterers around, I don't have a confidant, and I don't have a companion, I'm as lonely as an emperor, but I'm not an emperor" The loneliness on Liu Bai's face was surprisingly consistent with that on Su Hang's face, obviously two extremes, but I saw the same loneliness.
Liu Bai patted his horse away, facing the indescribable chic and casual sunshine.
Su Hang frowned and looked at it for a long time, until Liu Bai's back was about to squeeze into the sun, he finally smiled, thinking a little too much, he had nothing.
The sunset of the god abandoning the continent is the most beautiful within the range of the sacred mountain, there is not so much worldly pollution, and the beauty is somewhat intoxicating.
But squeamish did not watch the sunset in the mountain, since that day after leaving the mountain, she did not go back, she has been watching the sunset at the south gate of the mountain for more than ten days, the first few days feel that the sunset is very beautiful, and the direct look does not feel dazzling, although she obviously wants to see the south, but still enjoy the sunset, because this is like a person who looks at the scenery.
After all, it's not to see the sunset, even if it's really the hope of coming to see, it's boring to watch it for more than ten days, she still stands in the same place, but no longer looks at the sunset, looking at the avenue leading to the divine capital, people come and go, she has seen the hustle and bustle of the avenue in the past few days.
Whether it was the beauty of the sunset or the laughter and amusement of the crowd, it could not cause her to ripple, until she saw a young man leading a horse and another young man in black coming slowly, and the corners of her mouth finally had a smile, just like reuniting after a long absence.
Su Hang and Liu Bai came all the way, talking and laughing all the way, without talking about any ideals, what innovations or what ambitions, the two talked about the past and talked about their outlook on life, and now they can vaguely understand each other's intentions when they look at each other and smile.
On this avenue, there are too many pedestrians, so naturally they can't ride their horses anymore and walk slowly, although Su Hang is considered to be clear-eyed, but it really can't attract too much attention in the crowd, but Liu Bai on the side will not be like this, his handsome face, with his cold black clothes, attracts the eyes of the surroundings like a black hole.
Su Hang was a little jealous, he often thought that if he changed Liu Bai into a set of women's clothes, he would also look like an upside-down being, at least it would be more attractive than the squeamishness in front of him.
Thinking of being squeamish, Su Hang was a little at a loss for a while, especially now that he was standing in front of him, a green shirt was like a clear stream in the crowd, although it was not a country and a city, but the innocent and delicate appearance did make you can't help but look at her, there is no thrilling beauty, but there is no trace to attract you, so that you are calm in your heart, and you want to get close, like the empty valley orchid, a kind of beauty that does not fight or grab.
The two looked at each other, and they stood opposite each other in the midst of the crowd.
"Are you okay?"
Su Hang's voice was a little hoarse, and the voice for a moment was like two people, but for a moment, what kind of experience was in his heart.
"I was fine, it was a coincidence, to meet you here"
The girl's voice is tactful.,It's good.,It's just a little flustered.,She naturally won't say.,In order to wait.,She's been here for more than ten days of boring sun.,Of course, this won't be said.。。
But from the moment he saw him, he felt that the sun next to him, which was no longer dazzling because of dusk, was actually more beautiful than all the scenes he had seen in so many days combined.
"Are you a Shendu?"
The ghost sent the gods, Su Hang asked knowingly, Liu Bai on the side didn't keep up with his thinking, and almost got angry.
"Yes, I haven't mentioned it to you."
Su Hang found that he was out of proportion the moment he saw her, and sometimes he had a young face with flowing red hair, and turned around and asked, "Master, am I beautiful?" "I was ignorant, but I couldn't tell the difference between reality and illusion, and even the pair of short swords on my waist were soft, as if I felt something.
"Su Hang!"
A loud shout mixed with a female voice interrupted his chaotic thoughts, and the girl in front of him did not have red hair and a childish face.
"His name is Liu Bai, and I met him on the road"
The brainless words caused the girl next to her to laugh, and for a while it was even more attractive than the demonic Liu Bai next to her.
"He's a man!"
A sentence made Liu Bai, who should have been looking at him with his hands holding his hands like a fool, put on a constipated expression, but it was not the first time that he had been evaluated like this, although no one dared to say it in front of him in Liucheng, but the discussion behind it was always unstoppable, Liu Bai was also fortunate to hear it a few times, but he was also angry at first, and now he thinks about it is not a kind of jealousy, because most of the people who talk about this topic are young girls.
"It's been a long time, are you going to catch up with me like this in the crowd?"
squeamishly smiled faintly, just like in the teahouse that day, no longer speaking, but wanted to speak.
Su Hang avoided her gaze, suppressed the inexplicable throbbing in his heart, squeezed out a smile that was not very good-looking, and said, "I'll invite you to dinner?" ”
"Okay!" The girl laughed, her eyebrows crooked.
On an island, the wind and waves blow the island stronger. There was a girl standing on a rock pine, black hair like a waterfall, a gust of wind came, as if it was going to go with the wind.
"It's been a long time since I've seen you standing on top of this tree"
A scholar in a white robe, with an elegant face, stepped into the air, with a just right smile on his face, as if it had been carefully retouched. His tone was gentle, and his eyes were doting, as if all the good things about time were on him.
The girl never looked back, and even had a hint of disgust in her eyes.
"It's just to look at the scenery, and the senior brother is also very interested, so I won't bother."
The next step of the foot stepped out, the girl lost her trace, leaving the man alone to stand on the ground awkwardly, and even the elegant action of teasing the sideburns and hanging down was only halfway through. The man clenched his fists, his knuckles white, but he finally sighed and turned to leave.
There is a mountain on the island, and the buildings on the hill are built against the mountain, which blends in with the landscape, and looks natural from a distance, and ingenious up close, and there is a wide hall on the highest floor, but it is also limited to spaciousness, and there are no furnishings. It's just that there is a bright yellow futon in the deepest part, and there is a figure in a black and white robe sitting on it, with a clear face, but there is no way to judge the age, the face is young, but he sees endless vicissitudes on his face.
"Master, I want to go out for a walk"
The man on the futon opened his eyes, as if he contained a piece of heaven and earth, with the sun and the moon turning, and then slowly spoke, like a morning bell and a dusk drum.
"Two thousand years ago, you entered my door, cultivated for a hundred years, practiced for a hundred years, and then closed yourself when you came back. Another 500 years to break through the barrier, and then went to the southwest to take the life of the ghost monkey, and then never left this island, I thought you had seen through it"
"Master's cultivation is to reach the sky, there are things that I can't let go, how can I let go"
"Do you have news?"
"I just felt the throbbing of the short sword given by the master, that hundred years I have almost stepped on every corner of the continent, several years of life and death, nothing, scarred back to the master, I thought I saw through, so I planned to close the pass, the moment I broke out, I found that my heart was like the scorching sun, so I killed the ghost monkey, cultivated the Taishang forgetfulness, the disciple was dull, and he couldn't understand it"
"What are you going to do?"
"Didn't Master say that you should go through the red dust often? The disciple has been pure for a thousand years, and wants to see Hongchen again."
"Go" The Taoist sighed longly, his eyes were vicissitudes, and he couldn't see his emotions clearly.
The girl turned away, and as she turned away, she glanced at the painting behind the Taoist, in which her ancestor sat cross-legged on a boulder, and she remembered that the man had told her that it was not a stone, but a pile of dry bones, and that she was so stupid that she did not see the same as him.
On the way out, she met the man next to Yan Song, who still had just the right smile, which made people feel like a spring breeze.
"Seeing that there is sorrow between my sister's eyebrows, I wonder if there is anything that can help the foolish brother?"
"Senior Brother Lao bother, Senior Sister herself is fine"
The girl rarely showed half a smile, leaned over slightly, and then turned to leave.
It was the first time the man saw a girl smiling, and with a beautiful face, there was a thrilling beauty. He stayed for a moment, and when he saw that the girl had left the island, he wanted to chase after her, but when he had just floated into the air, he came back in a daze, and he knew that he could not catch up.
Fluttershy sighs, and the whole person disappears into the shadows.
After a while, the maiden came to a small market by the sea, where she strolled, and heard that the master had bought the daggers here. The blacksmith's shop has ceased to exist over the years, and it has been razed to the ground and turned into a small square.
One step out, the girl lost her trace, a big living person disappeared in an instant, but the others were unconscious, still authoring their own business, only a ragged beggar on the corner of the street, looked up suspiciously, and continued his begging business without noticing.
The maiden walked through a place overgrown with artemisia, and she remembered that there had been a hut far from the world, and on a rainy night, she knew a big boy who had called him Master, but did not want him to be Master.
It's March again, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the pink peach blossoms bloom delicately, just like two thousand years ago, as if time has no way to take them, but it is only similar. The girl knows that it has been two thousand years, so naturally it will not be the same tree.
With her right hand brushing the rough surface of the peach tree, she unconsciously came to a cave, a cave with no sense of beauty, but she felt that it was better than the peach blossoms, with a smile at the corner of her mouth, a smile from the bottom of her heart, but there was a bitterness at the corner of her eyes that could not be erased.
A white figure appeared next to the girl, like green smoke, her lips open and closed, but no sound came out.
"What's missing?"
Just in her mind, White Shadow said that it felt like it had lost something here, but couldn't remember.
"If you can't think of it, you don't want to!"
With a wave of the long knife in the girl's hand, the white shadow entered the long knife, the white shadow is the sword soul, the acquired sword soul, no one wants to be a tool soul, even if it is obsession.
So every time I ask about Suzhou and Hangzhou, it has no complaints, how can it have no complaints? I couldn't see it back then, but now that I've been cultivating for 2,000 years, I can't see any traces of revision.
For this reason, she struggled for a long time, she wanted to get back the lost memory of the sword soul, so that she could understand him better. He was afraid that one day when they met again, his good intentions would be tampered with, and he would be angry.
Two thousand years later, she almost forgot what he looked like, but it seemed that his appearance was deeply engraved in her mind, and she smiled at her in her dreams all the time.
Just as countless months ago on the top of this mountain, there used to be a grass hut here, but unfortunately it has long since disappeared into the years, leaving no trace, and even the cold pool below the mountain has dried up.
"Sir, how shall I find you?" The girl whispered, and then stepped out, someone went, and the wind came
"Originally, we students should have fixed the entrance ticket to a college, and it is said that the second hospital will be reorganized this year, so this year the distribution model will be adopted" Liu Bai took a sip of tea, turned the teacup in his hand, and looked out the window, there was a public notice board there, and the news of the reorganization of the second hospital was also seen there.
"I think there will be good resources for the reorganization of the second hospital, right?" Su Hang asked, he had the illusion that he would return to the second courtyard.
"Over the years, the No. 3 Courtyard has developed rapidly, those crazy people don't follow the rules and believe in force, it just so happens that their fists are hard enough, do you think they will let the No. 2 Courtyard develop?" Liu Bai still turned the teacup in his hand, and his eyes drifted a little far.
"You are a little rusty with squeamishness, why are you so indifferent when you know this feeling?"
"I can't give her a future"
"You know the future she wants?"
"If you can't take care of yourself, why bother others?"
"Then when you gave away the long knife, did you think about the same problem?"
"Huangliang is a dream, and there will be no more indefinite things."
"How can such a fluttering sentence be explained clearly to the person who is looking at the short sword in a daze on the road to the Shendu?" Liu Bai's eyes are even more profound, there are countless stories in them, I don't know if it is someone else or my own, I raised my head and drank the tea in my hand, as happy as drinking spirits.
Su Hang Nuo was speechless, he actually understood these things, and he didn't need to be reminded by others, but he had promised the girl that he would see him again in a hundred years, and it was always better to be in a dilemma now than to regret it in a hundred years.
"I'm leaving" Liu Bai staggered a little, as if he was drunk, but he drank tea
The long street is very long and very lively, it is said that people who have just arrived in Shendu will walk on this long street, it is said that they can see the future by walking from beginning to end, but no one has come out to confirm or refute the rumors, but the people who come to this long street are always bustling, I don't know if it is to see their future or happen to pass by.
Su Hang sat on the teahouse and looked at the long street like this, from noon to the bright moon hanging, the movements have not changed, the breath has become very turbid, the true qi that should have done its job is chaotic, the corner of Su Hang's mouth is overflowing, and then he turned to leave, he also wants to go for a walk on the long street, at night, there are few people on the road, at the moment when he stepped out of the teahouse, Xiao Er, who should have fallen asleep, came to the spirit, quickly got up and closed the door, and turned off the lights.
As if receiving a signal, the lights on the long street went out in an instant, and for a while the lively long street seemed to have fallen into hell, endless darkness, as if the moonlight could not be sprinkled in, and the few sparse pedestrians who should have come and gone also found a home.
The sound of the soles of the boots and the bluestone slabs striking, trampling, as if asking the soul of Dolando, thinking about it step by step, in fact, it is really just an ordinary road, the only difference may be that it is darker than the road next to it, maybe the dark environment is more suitable for thinking, this street is not too long, he has walked for a long time.
When the long street was finally finished, he vomited a mouthful of blood and turned to leave.
There were two people walking out of the shadows, a man and a woman, and the girl's face was so sad that it couldn't be dissolved.
"You're not going to catch up?" Ruoruo looked at the squeamishness on the side and asked.
"He doesn't want me to see it now, does he?" The squeamish took back the half-step he had taken, and his face was sad.
"You don't want to know what he saw?"
"In what capacity should I know what he saw?"
The squeamish also turned away, although he did not vomit blood, but his body staggered like Su Hang, who had just left.
"Today's young people" If you look like you see the world, you are a good person
If it weren't for the scream that followed, everything would have been perfect.
"Sister, we have something to talk about, something to say"
Ruoruo's ear fell into the hands of a girl with a similar age difference, and a small hand that seemed to peel onions galloped wantonly on his ear, hearing Ruoruo's begging for mercy, he finally didn't continue, but he didn't leave.
"When are you going to find that decrepit man who vomits blood? I don't know when he hangs up like that, so how do I find Xiao Fang" The girl's face was a little shy.
"Don't expect him to die, not only my good friend, but also Zhang Fang, think about him for Su Hang to see Murong Yundi's paws"
"Then don't let Su Hang, this kid die, just half dead" Lan Ji didn't seem to like Su Hang very much.
"I'll go back to him tomorrow." Ruoruo took advantage of Lan Ji's distraction to finally break free from her demonic claws and escape.
Back at the inn where he stayed, Su Hang vomited a mouthful of blood, his face was as pale as paper, and there was a strange sense of transparency in the bleak moonlight, which caused the girl in the shadows to cover her mouth and weep silently, but she didn't go to the moonlight, although he was scattered for half his life, but she understood what a proud person he was! How can he let others see his down-and-out appearance, just like the people who were robbed of his place in front of him.
Su Hang sat cross-legged in the room, there was no palm lamp, the moonlight shone on his face through the window, his pale face was matched with black clothes, like a black and white picture, if it weren't for the blood at the corner of his mouth was too eye-catching.
He has now broken the day after tomorrow, even if his mind does not belong, but the person in the shadow is also wandering, so he easily found out.
"You shouldn't have come," Su Hang muttered to himself.
He walked through that long street, he didn't see the future, but he thought a lot, he wanted to understand that Huangfu Butterfly was a person from the Divine Domain, the ancestors spent 10,000 years looking for the nodes of the two worlds, but they didn't find anything, how difficult it would be to meet, the red hair would be buried in the depths of memory forever, and the white bones would also be hidden in the deepest depths, and they would never appear in front of the person who thought about it day and night.
For squeamishness, he is very conflicted, if he doesn't meet Huangfu Die, if he asks him if he likes it, he may be shy and timid, but he will also say in his heart that he likes it, and if she asks for a long knife, he will give it.
Now that the long knife is no longer there, and his heart is no longer so resolute, he is a little afraid to face the squeamishness.
The girl in the shadows stood for a long time, so long that the boy in the room almost wanted to break out of the window, but she and he held back, and just like that, her clothes darkened in the frost and dew.
The morning sun pierced the darkness and illuminated the shadows of yesterday, Su Hang pushed open the window of the room, the sun shone in, and his face was still pale. His eyes inadvertently looked at the place he had seen in his heart, where there was no one, but there was one place that was drier than the surroundings, so Su Hang wet his eyes.
Su Hang walked aimlessly on the streets of Shendu, a broken staircase inadvertently tripped him, after all, it made him sober up a little, looked around blankly, and his eyes were full of ruins and broken walls, moss climbed up the wall, and fell a lot, and there was even a short knife in front of him that was so rusty that he could only see the outline clearly.
Su Hang remembered that he was walking in the prosperous place of the Shendu, according to the time, it should still be in the Shendu, and there should not be such a dilapidated place in the Shendu. The more I looked at it, the more I felt that this place was gloomy, as if there were countless resentful ghosts haunting here.
The cultivator should not be afraid of such a thing, but he kept running out with his footsteps, and the ghost sent the god to look back again.
Looking back, there are no gloomy ghosts, the morning sun is very warm, shining on the body, but there is no need to worry about the ghosts. An old man came out of the doorway, probably just hearing footsteps, so he came out to take a look.
The old man should not be a cultivator, cultivation is an act against the sky, fighting with the sky, no matter how indisputable the aura of the person who rises against the trend will be unconsciously revealed. And the old man is like the old man who had insomnia last night, his eyes are cloudy, and his body is rickety, he is an old man in the world.
Even the old man coughed violently, tearing his heart and lungs.
Su Hang wanted to come forward to see the condition of the old man, he was afraid that the old man would cough out his lungs together, for some reason the person in front of him and an old man holding a black umbrella in his memory coincided, the same dilapidated body that would be annihilated at any time, obviously a few months ago, for some reason it seemed to be something from endless years ago.
