Chapter 37 Things to be done
As soon as I arrived at Taiyuan Airport, as soon as my mobile phone was turned on, my father's phone called, saying that they were waiting for me at the exit point.
When I saw them, I felt like I was in a dream. How many times in the dark, I have been thinking about their faces, and now they finally appear in front of me. Hugging them in a few steps, this is a real happiness, I haven't had this kind of home satisfaction for a long time, I used to miss my parents, but I have never been so strong, after I have experienced so many things, it is even more difficult for me to let go of this family feeling. In order not to worry my parents, I held back my tears. After all, it seemed to them that I had just gone to Africa to work for a while.
"Child, let Mom see, I'm thin, I'm dark, you said you didn't discuss it with us in advance when you went to Africa, just send some photos in the middle, I'm really worried about us" Tears flowed out of my mother's eyes. I hurriedly wiped it off for my mother.
"Look at you, my sons are back, what are you crying about, really. The son has his own career when he is older, and he is almost 30 years old, so you don't always treat him as a child. "My father always solves the siege at a critical moment.
One after the other, they dragged them home.
After eating, I entered my room, and I fell asleep on the bed with a sense of security.
This is the most solid sleep in recent times. There are no dreams, no monsters and no ghosts. I slept until I woke up naturally. It's nice to look at my familiar room, it's real, not a dream. But suddenly there was a slight wave in my heart, and the picture that turned into a monster instantly broke into my mind. I hurriedly shook my head and began to organize my things.
I found our special mobile phone, and suddenly found that there were several incoming calls, and I opened it to see that it was General Zhang.
I hurriedly dialed back: "General, is there any situation?" ”
"Xiaomeng, you hurry up and contact Xia Chenfeng, he changed his itinerary by himself and didn't go to Shanghai. The tracking showed that he went to Wudang Mountain, which was different from the itinerary arranged. If we are not sure of our whereabouts, it will be difficult for the superiors to explain, and there will be special personnel to arrest Chenfeng, and then our plan will be in vain. ”
"Well, okay, I'll contact him" After saying that, I called Dustwind, but he didn't answer my phone. This guy, playing missing now? It's not like him, is something wrong with him? No way, he's so good. But he's just recovered. Thinking of this, I started to worry.
After staying at home for a day or two, I was really restless, and no one answered my phone calls to Chenfeng many times during this period. In the end, I couldn't sit still. So I told my parents that I was going to go on a trip with my friends.
Although my parents were against it, they felt that I needed to relax after spending many months in Africa, so I agreed.
After contacting General Zhang, I bought a plane ticket to Wudang Mountain. Then I cleaned up the contents of the house thoroughly, and gave away everything I could. We also secretly deposited the allowance that the general had given us into my mother's account. That's all I can do for the time being, because I know my future is unpredictable, in case ...
I didn't want them to be distracted, so I simply said hello to my parents and set off. On the way, I have been thinking about the words of the little monk in the tower, and I may be able to understand a little. The plane turned to the bus, did not stop much, and came to the Wudang Mountain Scenic Area smoothly.
When I stood at the foot of the mountain, I froze, I completely ignored how big Wudang Mountain was, looking at the peaks in the distance, looking at the guide map in my hand, I was dumbfounded, where do I have to go to find the dust wind? I thought, you dead madman, when I find you, I'll give you a back fall. So I sent a text message directly to Chenfeng, telling him that I had arrived at Wudang Mountain and asking where he was.
This method really worked, and when I was lying on the bamboo chair in the small shop in Iriyamaguchi, dozing off with Erlang's legs crossed, I received a call from Dusty Wind:
"Hey, madman, where are you." Dustwind didn't speak at first, but after a while he said:
"I'm in the Golden Temple." After saying that, he hung up. Damn, again, I rolled my eyes at my phone. Flip through the map and look up where he is.
Oh, my God! At the top. I looked at the vicious sun overhead. Well, it's time to put my workouts to the test.
Climbing all the way, without rest, although the surrounding scenery is in full view, but it is really too tiring.
Finally, when the sun was about to set, I climbed to the top of the Golden Dome out of breath, and when I saw that the Golden Temple was closed, I called Dusty Wind again.
"Crazy,,, crazy, where are you, I'm at the door." I gasped. Dustwind hung up the phone without speaking. No way! Nima, continue to spit out the fragrance in your mouth...
At this time, I had time to take a look at the surrounding landscape, Wudang Mountain is really worthy of its name, the sunset hangs in the mountains, dyeing the surrounding sea of clouds into a golden yellow. The surrounding pines and cypresses are vigorous and powerful, and their roots are firmly attached to the rocks. Sure enough, it is a Taoist holy land, and it is like a fairyland.
Suddenly, the door opened, and a little Taoist priest walked out. "The donor is a dream."
"Ah, I am."
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, so come with me."
"Waiting for me for a long time? I, I climbed down the hill, can't be fast. I gasped.
"Donor, there is a cable car in the scenic area." After speaking, the little Taoist priest gave me a strange look and walked in.
I was petrified instantly, feeling that I must be a fool in the eyes of the little Taoist. I hurriedly followed in, there were not many people in the Taoist temple, they were all Taoist priests, I followed this little Taoist priest all the way to the back room, and after entering, I saw Chenfeng wearing a black Taoist robe meditating.
"Crazy, crazy? Are you a Taoist? ”
"Donor, please wait a while, the master is meditating and cultivating."
Master, yo, it seems that Dusty Wind still has a status here.
"Little master, I haven't eaten well all day, is there any food here?"
"What time is it, okay, I'll find it for you." After speaking, the little Taoist priest walked out.
I contacted the general and explained the situation, and then I sat bored and waited for a while, and the little Taoist priest opened the door and came in again, bringing me a bowl of porridge and salted duck eggs, "That's all." ”
Well, as long as it's food. I've never been picky about what I eat.
By 10 o'clock in the evening, I saw that the dust and wind had not moved. I shook my hand in front of his eyes, but I didn't respond. This guy caused me to come all the way here, and I didn't say anything when I met, see how I clean you up.
So I gently took off my shoes, and slowly brought my feet in front of him, and before I could get close to my nose, I saw that the dust wind suddenly grabbed my ankle and twisted it. I rolled over and went straight under the bed.
"Crazy,,I'll go,,Pain,,Pain,,Let go." I began to wail.
Dusty Wind shook his hand and let go of my feet, and said lightly, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Who told you to run blindly, don't we all have a plan?"
"The appointed time has not yet arrived." It's rare that Dustwind will answer my questions. So he hurriedly said, "Just remember, then I'll be waiting for you here for the next few days." ”
Dusty Wind closed his eyes and stopped talking, alas, a headache, is this guy really okay? Are the injuries really all healed?
Thinking about it, I jumped lightly behind him. Suddenly, he hooked his hands, strangled him by the neck, and tried him. Let him taste the fruits of my training.
Suddenly, in less than a second, I felt a pain in my back and a cloudy head, I quickly shook my head, damn, why am I already lying on the ground. Before I could react, I looked at Dustwind and saw him looking at me with a scornful smile on the corner of his mouth.
"I'll go, madman, what kind of trick are you? I found out, you're so happy when you knock me down, aren't you? You're gloating! What a healer, this is like a man who has been seriously injured. I patted the dust off my body as I spoke.
"You've worked out, I can feel the strength. I'm going to retreat tomorrow and you can sleep here. After saying that, he seemed to settle down again.
Alas, well.
I slept in the same room with Dusty Wind at night, which reminded me of the scene when we first went to Changbai Mountain and lived together, and I probably never thought that I would experience so many things later.
"Crazy, I really regret that I shouldn't have touched that stone in the first place, and now I have put everyone in danger."
There was no sound, maybe he was asleep.
Before dawn the next day, I heard a lot of movement outside.
I glanced at the bed next to me, the dust and wind were not there, I quickly got up and opened the curtain to see that the Taoist priests in the courtyard were practicing martial arts, so spectacular, a scene that I have only seen on TV. And the dust wind stood in front of him, looking very majestic. The wooden sword of practice rattled in his hand, and the sword passed by, and the shadow of the sword was like weaving, and the speed was so fast that I was dazzled. The black robe shows his tough posture even more. Envy, jealousy, hatred.
After practicing, an old Taoist priest walked out slowly, walked in front of the dust wind, hugged his hands as a gift, and returned the gift like the dust wind. The old Taoist priest said, "Master, you are going to retreat today?" ”
"Yes, Dao Chief, my friend will be disturbing here for a few days, and I hope that Dao Chang will help take care of it."
"Wherever and wherever you are, I will take good care of my master's friends. It's just that someone wants to see you today. ”
The old Taoist is actually called Master Dustwind, this, the seniority is a little messy. I'm a little confused. Suddenly, several people came in the front door, all of them looking to be in their fifties or sixties, one with a child in his hand.
A few people came in and walked up to Dusty Wind and said, "I've seen Shizun." Several people bowed their heads at the same time.
I was dumbfounded, this, what does this mean?
"We found out that you didn't go back to Shanghai, so we had to rush here." The older grade man continued.
"I'm not dead, go back." Dusty Wind's face was a little unsightly. His eyes looked at the little boy who had been brought in. What's going on?
After Dusty Wind finished speaking, he directly took his knife and walked towards the back mountain. The little Taoist priest carried a basket and followed behind, and I hurriedly followed behind. Dusty Wind is fine, his face is really bad.
After walking down the steep stone road, I saw a mountain peak in front of me, which was connected to a slender path between the mountains where we were, and the path was very narrow, surrounded by an abyss, which made people feel scary to look at. There seems to be a cave on the opposite peak. Suddenly, the sun came out, and there was a colorful light on the top of the peak!
Dusty Wind took the basket of the little Taoist, turned around and walked onto the stone path, as if on flat ground, watching him walk towards the opposite mountain peak from a distance.
I shouted "Dust Wind!" I'll go with you, too! ”
The little Taoist priest stopped me and said, "Donor, you and I can't cross the road ahead." ”
Dusty Wind suddenly stopped, and said without looking back: "I, I have never regretted it!" With that, he continued to walk towards the cave opposite.
It was still a faint tone, and I was stunned for a moment.
This is? Last night's answer? If it were in the original, I would definitely think that I would be a friend enough. And now I am more worried in my heart, Dusty Wind, Brother Dong, Sister Yue, this time there must be no accident, that kind of heart-piercing pain, I don't allow it to happen again. The words of the little Taoist priest brought me back to my senses:
"Lost master, are you a friend of Shizun? I have never seen Shizun and outsiders so cordial. You are also allowed to stay overnight. ”
"Ah, yes, we have a good relationship. So let me go. I winked at the little priest
"Don't go over, if you don't believe it, you can take a look here, I'll go back first." After saying that, the little Taoist priest left.
I looked curiously, what was this for me to see, and I was thinking, when a bird flew by, but when I was about to fly to the opposite peak, a lightning bolt suddenly appeared, and with a snap, the bird just fell. I was taken aback and hurried back a few steps, it seemed that this was indeed not the place for me. I saw too many strange things, and I made some progress so that I didn't make a fuss, but I didn't dare to try it myself, so I had to go back obediently.
After returning to the house, I called Brother Dong and told me about the situation here, only to hear Brother Dong complaining over there, "Xiaocao, you are too uninteresting, you don't call me when you go on a trip, you don't know, I'm about to be dismantled by my mother." I listened gloatingly. The corners of the mouth slowly rise.
"If you bear with me, we'll be able to meet in 4 days. Just don't cripple when you get there," I snickered.
"I can't stay any longer,,,, oh, mom, ah, ,,, it hurts, my mom is beating me again, we're done talking, I'll hang up first." Listening to Brother Dong's screams, I hung up the phone, and my face hurt so much when I laughed.
I was bored, looking east and west in the dusty room, the room was not big, but it was clean and tidy, and there were not many personal belongings, except for a retro table with a lot of things, books, and cups. Suddenly, I saw a yellowed old photograph pressed under an old glass plate. I took out the photo and saw that there was a row of Taoist priests standing on it, looking very young, standing in the middle, I recognized it as Chenfeng at a glance, and the one next to me looked a little familiar.
Suddenly I realized that something was wrong, this,, isn't this the old Taoist priest today? This can't be, is this really dusty wind in the photo? Could it be Dustwind's father? But it's too similar, the expression, and the demeanor are very similar. I curiously took out the photo, went out to look for the old Taoist priest, and after looking for a long time, I finally found it in the main hall.
He's doing the formula for some donors. When they saw me, they walked over tremblingly.
"Master, I want to ask you if you are the one in this photo? Also Who is this? ”
The old Taoist priest glanced at me, smiled lightly, and said, "The little donor has an answer in his heart, so he doesn't need to ask me again." After that, he continued to do his French style. Leave me standing there dumbfounded.
This, how is this possible. For decades, it is impossible for a person not to change at all. Although I had a lot of questions in my heart, the Taoist chief didn't say it himself, so I still can't be sure. Alas, forget it, when the dust wind comes out, ask him directly.
In the next few days, I learned some boxing and swordsmanship from the masters in the Taoist temple, although I could only learn a little bit and use it as a fitness exercise. Until the dust wind came back from the back mountain, he was covered in injuries, and he didn't speak for a long time, and he died in a hurry.
After a day's rest, we officially set off for Beijing. Sitting on the plane, Dusty Wind and I have become the focus of attention of the girls, and from time to time there are people who come to ask for WeChat, Dusty Wind still ignores it, sleeps on the seat, and suffers from me, so I have to play slowly. This is going to let go of my joy in the past, but now I have no intention of thinking about my sister. Along the way, I didn't have a chance to ask him about the photos and those Shanghainese, so I had to give up.
