Chapter 167: Calm Your Heart
Li Ran held the pen and looked at the yellowish Shu Xuan in his hand, until the ink on the pen was about to dry up, and then put the pen down.
"Aze:
I think that this letter should be handed over to you by my own hands, and many of the words in the letter should have been able to be said to you in person a long time later, when the time is right.
Still, just in case, I'll write it down first.
I originally thought that in this life, I would definitely live a long life, well, now, I still think so.
Just take precautions.
Before I met you, I often thought about death, thinking carefully and calmly, and my mind was peaceful.
After meeting you, I didn't think about my death once until this moment.
Now, thinking about death, I only worry about you.
Who else can be with you without me?
You're alone, so lonely.
I thought about your death, do you remember? I asked you once, how old are you?
I've thought about it many times, and I've thought about it very carefully.
If we have children when you leave, and the children are still young, I will definitely live well and take good care of the children, so that he can grow up happily even though he has no father.
If the children are older, each has a home, and it has come to the time when they can say goodbye to their parents indifferently, if you have a wish, I will go to fulfill your wish for you first, if not, whether I will go to your cemetery to guard you, or go with you, I haven't thought about it.
If we don't have children when you leave, what will I do, I don't think about it.
Personally, I think this problem should be left to you.
It was already dark outside, and we were now in a small lonely temple deep in the jungle, and I said that this temple was built for a fox fairy, hoping that she would bless me.
I think there are fairies, devils and monsters, but they are not as powerful as the legend.
People also have souls, but after death, the soul is not in her original world.
The Buddha said that there are three thousand worlds, and before a person dies, he is in one world, and after death, he does not know which one of the three thousand worlds he is in.
Perhaps death is the process of leaving one world and going to another.
When the soul goes to a new world, it may still remember the past, but that new world has nothing to do with the world before the soul was born, and everything is unheard of.
That's why I don't think I'll go with you if you go.
After death, in that completely strange world, there is nothing to do with you, no one knows about you, everything has nothing to do with the present, nothing to do with you, it is too lonely and uncomfortable.
It's better to stay here, walk around where you go, touch the things you use, look at what you write, read the books you read, gossip with people who know you and know you, and maybe hear things about you that I don't know.
You are everywhere here, and you can be felt everywhere.
But it is probably because of you everywhere and feeling you everywhere that it makes people miss you more and feel more painful.
I seemed to be sick and overthinking.
We had a sumptuous dinner today.
An Xiaowu roasted a leg of mutton, which was very fragrant.
An Xiaowu said that he relied on this ability to roast lamb legs to marry his daughter-in-law home, we all praised the deliciousness, but he couldn't stop regretting, saying that the seasoning was not complete, only salt, in fact, in addition to salt, there are small wild onions.
General Zhou stewed pheasant soup on the copper incense burner in front of the fox fairy statue, stewed the soup, fanned the taste with his hands, and said that the fox fairy should enjoy it first.
Momonon said that if the fox fairy was knowledgeable, he would definitely be willing to use the incense burner to stew soup instead of serving incense ash.
Wang Cui was on duty outside, saying that halfway through the soup, there were foxes coming, we have a lot of meat today, Tao Nong threw some meat out, saying that those foxes are the relatives and descendants of the fox fairy, which is considered to be filial piety to the fox fairy.
It would be nice if you were.
I miss you. ”
After Li Ran finished writing, she missed you, paused her pen, and looked up at the window with the sound of the wind.
The fire in front of him was only red and prosperous charcoal, and Tao Nong cut a thin wooden wick, soaked it in oil and put it in front of Li Ran, and a bean of light barely illuminated the yellowish ripe Xuan.
Li Ran was stunned for a long time, didn't write it anymore, put away the pen and paper, put the written letter close to him, curled up on the door panel, closed his eyes and passed in chaos.
The surrounding movements, as if they could be heard clearly, but suddenly, as if they were in the former barracks, not in the barracks, they were on a mission, she looked at a group of children running around in the telescope, the cannonballs were whistling, she put down the binoculars.
She had been trying to figure out whether she was awake or dreaming.
Struggling to wake up from the chaos, Li Ran didn't open her eyes, she felt extremely tired, more tired than walking all night.
"When you wake up, drink saliva first." Seeing Li Ran open his eyes, Tao Nong hurriedly stepped forward and smiled.
"Okay."
Without waiting for Li Ran to support herself, Tao Nong stepped forward to help her, "I'll help you, you've been burning all night, and you can't wake up when you scream." ”
Li Ran was supported by Tao Nong, leaned back against the wall, only felt a golden light in front of him, reached out and took the bowl that Tao Nong brought up, drank half a bowl of warm water one by one, and exhaled gently, "I'm fine, it seems that the fever has subsided." ”
Li Ran raised her hand and touched her forehead.
"You're really ...... It's a retreat, alas, you said that you, Jin Zun and Yugui, how can you be the same as us who are cheap and ninth-rated, sick and curled up in the corner, without snorting, you are your own doctor, so you don't know if you are good. ”
Momono said, wanting to laugh but sighing.
"What about General Zhou?" Li Ran looked around.
"Find a way, the fifth master went to the town, and there is a market today.
General Zhou said, the yin qi here is too heavy, we have to leave quickly. ”
Momono laughed.
"I'm going to find a doctor quickly." Li Ran said in a low voice.
"Because of whether to find a doctor, General Zhou discussed with the fifth master for most of the night, but he didn't dare to look for it, and General Zhou said that you can carry it."
Tao Nong took off Li Ran's shoes, touched her feet, and said with a smile while putting on her shoes: "It looks much better, this foot is not icy, your feet are cold in the first half of the night, Wang Cui and I will take turns to cover you."
If you cover your hands and feet with heat, you won't be able to burn them.
What do you want to eat? Leaves you a bowl of chicken broth. ”
"Okay."
Li Ran nodded, she had to work hard to eat something, chicken soup was the best.
Tao Nong watched Li Ran slowly finish drinking most of the bowl of chicken soup, and just took the bowl to send it out, the sentry guarding outside the temple rushed in.
"There was a lady, like a mother-in-law from a family twenty miles away, who carried a basket and came to the temple."
"Hurry up and pack up, we have to hide!"
As soon as Tao Nong finished speaking, Wang Cui also came in, Shen Mai followed, and a few sentry spies moved very quickly to restore the temple to its original state.
Li Ran struggled to stand up, but Momonong held her down, "You sit still, it's raining outside, there's no shelter from the rain, you're here." ”
Momonong looked up at Wang Cui, "In this corner, there was a pile of broken tables and rotten wood or something, let's still pile them up and block the girl in the corner."
Let's stay outside, and we can do anything in time. ”
Wang Cui thought for a moment and simply nodded, "This is the best." ”
Li Ran sat close to the corner of the wall, looked at Tao Nong and Wang Cui, moved the broken table over, and pulled some branches or something to block her tightly.
The temple had just been cleaned up, and everyone withdrew, and the mother-in-law who was said by the sentinel entered the small temple with heavy footsteps and heavy breathing.
The mother-in-law seemed to be heavy at everything, Li Ran listened to her put down the basket, set the offerings, blew and lit the incense candles, and then listened to her kowtow and start praying.
Li Ran, who listened to the mother-in-law in a dialect, was very difficult, but fortunately, she prayed while crying and complaining, and said upside down, Li Ran listened to her round of prayers, listened to her kowtow a few times, another round of prayer, another round of kowtow, and another round of prayer, and finally heard a rough idea.
The thing is very simple, her man is sick, she burned him yellow laminated paper and drank it, and it didn't get good for him to drink the boy's urine, and she shouted to him again, but it didn't get better, she really had no choice, so she had to come to Daxian.
The mother-in-law cried and complained, and kowtowed round after round, and kowtowed for four or five rounds before she could be considered prayed, stood up, collected the offerings, and carried the basket out of the small temple.
Momonon was the first to come in, pulled away a branch with thick leaves, and looked at Li Ran, who was leaning against the corner of the wall, smiling at her and saying that it was okay, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Ran pinched a tightly rolled gold page twisted out of the corner of his clothes and handed it to Tao Nong.
"Can you find a way to throw it at that mother-in-law? Her man had to go to a doctor, or she would have to be a widow. ”
Tao Nong raised an eyebrow, and for a moment, he reached out and took the small golden stick, and squeezed it into a ball, "I'll throw it to her, even if her man can't live, with these taels of gold, she can be better." ”
"Be careful."
"Well, don't worry."
Momonon said, stood up, and trotted all the way out from the back door of the small temple.
