Chapter 4 Flowers bloom on both sides of the strait
After walking for an unknown amount of time, I suddenly smelled a fragrance, and I felt sad when I smelled this fragrance for some reason.
"Brother Qin, what kind of smell is this, it's so fragrant." As I spoke, I took a deep breath.
"This is the smell of flowers on the other side, not far ahead."
Flowers on the other side? Is there still someone in the underworld who can't plant flowers? Besides, if there is no sunlight in the underworld, there will be no plants growing under normal circumstances, right? I asked the question in my mind.
"You'll find out in a moment." As he spoke, Brother Qin quickened his pace, and I followed closely behind.
After walking for about a minute, I was completely stunned by what I saw. The left side of the road is full of white flowers, and the petals are curled up like dragon claws, but there is not a single leaf on the stem, however, on the right side of the road, there are leaves on the stem, but none of them bloom.
Looking at the scene in front of me, I asked, "Brother Qin, what's going on?" ”
"The flowers on the other side, the flowers bloom for a thousand years, the flowers fall for a thousand years, the flowers and leaves are born and wrong, and the world will never see each other." I didn't expect Brother Qin to say such a crepe thing, and I, who have always been poor at learning, didn't understand it very well.
"Brother Qin, these first two sentences are easy to understand, that is, the other side only blooms once in a thousand years, what do these last two sentences mean."
"The flowers on the other side bloom for a thousand years and fall for a thousand years, and the flowers do not see the leaves, and the leaves do not bloom. This time it is just in time for the south side of Huangquan Road to bloom, and when the flowers fall, they will grow leaves: however, the leaves on the north side will fall off and white flowers will grow, and the flowers and leaves will never meet. "Hearing Brother Qin say this, I have a greater curiosity about the other side of the flower.
"There is another legend about the flower on the other side, do you want to hear it?" Hearing Brother Qin say this, I immediately replied, "Yes." ”
"Legend has it that there were two people whose names were Pi and An, and God decreed that the two of them should never see each other. They cherished each other and admired each other, and finally one day, they ignored the rules of heaven and secretly met each other. The result was doomed, because of the violation of the rules of heaven, the relationship was finally ruthlessly stifled. Heaven sent down a punishment and gave the two of them a vicious curse, since they wanted to have a private meeting regardless of the rules of heaven, they let them become the flowers and leaves of a flower, but this flower is very peculiar, there are flowers without leaves, leaves without flowers, life and life, flowers and leaves are wrong. Destined to never see each other in this life. ”
No wonder, since I smelled the fragrance of the flowers, I have an inexplicable sense of sadness, it turns out that there is such a legend behind it.
At this moment, I felt how desperate it was for two people who loved each other not to be together, and how reluctant they would be when they were separated.
Maybe the way of heaven is so unfair sometimes, and the origin and extinction are just in an instant. I think they must be happy when they meet, and even if they can't be together, they won't have any regrets.
Maybe it was my destiny to die at the age of eighteen, but fate was not arranged by God, but I grasped it myself, and I must figure things out.
"Brother Qin, how long will it take for us to arrive?"
"There is a 'Nai He Bridge' in front of you, and you will arrive soon after passing it." When I heard "Nai He Qiao", I immediately thought of "Meng Po", I don't know if she exists?
The most important thing now is to hurry, and the others will definitely know when they arrive, I urged Brother Qin, and we accelerated the pace of progress.
