Chapter 48: Red Lotus and White Crane (3)
Shen Xingshen and I chased after each other at the same time, but saw the figure of the senior brother flashing into an arch and suddenly disappeared.
Glancing at each other, and deciding to separate searches, I walked in the direction where my brother had disappeared, only to see a cave built at the end of the road ahead, and the cave was hidden under the vines, and a wooden door was exposed because the vines that covered it withered.
Confused, I walked over and pushed open the wooden door, only to see a room inside.
Although it was dusty, the contents were neatly arranged, and it could be seen that before this place was deserted, people often came in to clean it, and even looked at the bedding on the bed and the kettle on the table, which must have been inhabited.
Who lives here?
This place is hidden, even the people of Kunlun Gate have not found this place, so it can be seen that the people living here should not be ordinary people.
Could it be Xiao Hese?
Suspicious in my heart, I walked cautiously, and there were several bookshelves against the wall in the room, and there were many books on the shelves.
I threw the scriptures back on the bookshelf, and then walked in, but I saw a dresser, on the dresser there was a bronze mirror, because no one had used it for a long time, the mirror was covered with dust, and under the copper mirror was placed a red lacquered wooden comb, and a delicately carved dowry, I walked over, opened the dowry, but saw all kinds of hairpin ornaments in it.
This situation and this scene made me feel familiar, especially the carving on the makeup, I seem to have seen it somewhere.
But I just can't remember.
Holding the makeup, I looked at it in a daze for a long time, but a picture suddenly flashed in my mind-
In the neat and wide hall, a woman in red sat in front of a bronze mirror and drew her eyebrows, a woman I had known, or rather, I had seen.
When I was in Luohe City, I had a dream in which the woman who was dressed in red to defend me and speak for me looked exactly like her.
With her eyes charitable and her forehead depicted with a crimson lotus, I still remember her gentle voice to this day.
It was still snowing outside, and the snow that fell on the ground, and the frozen ice seemed to seal off the entire mountain and the main hall.
At this moment, a person ran in from outside, rushing, obviously it was snowing so heavily, but she didn't even hold an umbrella, wearing a light blue dress, wearing a silver delicate hair crown, and her eyebrows were full of handsome heroism, because of her appearance, it seemed that the whole hall had become warm and active.
She ran to the door, slapped a few snowflakes that fell on her body, saw the woman in red was drawing her eyebrows in front of the bronze mirror, smiled, and deliberately walked over, and when she walked behind her, she suddenly pounced on the woman in red, and shouted coquettishly: "Senior sister...... Senior sister ......"
The woman in red was frightened by her, almost drew her eyebrows off, put the eyebrow pencil on the table, turned around and made a posture about to hit her, and said: "You girl, you are always reckless, you don't look like a girl, and the monkeys guarding the mountain gate in front of the mountain are not as nonsense as you." ”
The girl in blue cut off, and said with a snort: "I'm not like Senior Sister, you are all day long, you put on makeup and eyebrows or something, and you are in trouble!" ”
The woman in red turned around, glared at her, and quipped, "With you like this, who will dare to marry you in the future?" ”
The girl in blue rolled up her sleeves and made a gesture that she was about to fight with someone and said, "Who dares to marry me?" Who dares to marry me see that I don't break his dog's legs! I don't want to get married! Look at my aunt, she was such a heroic female general, after marrying my uncle, she taught her husband and children all day long, and she couldn't even pick up a big knife, and she had to take care of this and that when she went out, I didn't want to become like her, rather than let me shrink in the back house for the rest of my life, then I would rather live a free life like this. ”
This girl in blue and I have exactly the same face, if there is any difference, it is probably really a difference in temperament.
Her eyebrows are full of fierce heroism, and her demeanor can be seen full of confidence, but I am obviously different.
Her heartiness and spaciousness, and the bright and beautiful smile on her face, I can't imitate it anyway.
I think, probably, she is Xu Jingrong.
Xu Jingrong, who everyone misses, the real her, has indeed lived up to everyone's thoughts about her.
And this woman in red is Xiao Hese.
The secret words of the boudoir where the youngest daughter's family got together, it can be seen that the seven sons of Kunlun, who can go to heaven and earth in the eyes of everyone, are actually just ordinary people, who can make up, dress up, and draw good-looking willow eyebrows for their beloved lover, and will also get together to talk about their marriage and sweetheart.
I think that when they were on Kunlun Mountain, Xu Jingrong and Xiao Hese must have a good relationship.
Xiao Hese asked, "What about Wei Yang?" What are your thoughts on Viyan? ”
Speaking of Liu Weiyang, Xu Jingrong's face suddenly turned red, and she defended hesitantly: "What...... What Wei Yang, Senior Sister, you are making fun of me again, I won't tell you, Senior Brother Liu is waiting for me to practice swordsmanship in the back mountain, by the way, when I just came over, I saw Senior Brother He feeding the cranes by the waterfall, Senior Sister is over now, maybe I can still see him......"
As he spoke, he ran out of the main hall as if he were fleeing.
My eyes followed the direction she left, and I really wanted to see what Senior Brother Liu looked like as she spoke, but as far as I could see, I could only see the vast snow outside the hall, and the light blue dress was running and squirming in the ice and snow, and finally I couldn't see it.
It seemed that someone was talking in my ears, I subconsciously closed my eyes, but I only heard the voices of Xu Jingrong and another person-
"You can't practice such a simple swordsmanship, have you been lazy again recently?"
It was a very crisp and pleasant voice, and listening to the voice alone, it was inferred that this person should be a young man no more than twenty years old.
Xu Jingrong accidentally dropped the sword on the ground with a move, snorted, and complained: "Didn't the master ask me to clean the Lingyun Pavilion and let me copy the scriptures in the pavilion, Senior Brother Liu, I haven't finished copying the scriptures yet, if you don't copy some for me, I'll practice swords here." ”
"Come less!"
The previous person said angrily: "Who let you go down the mountain without permission, otherwise how could the master punish you for copying the scriptures?" And ......"
After a pause, he said sullenly dissatisfied: "I'm not your junior brother......"
"You are not a junior brother, although you are older than me, but you are two years later than me, of course you have to call me senior sister."
……
I concentrated and wanted to see the person's appearance clearly, but no matter how hard I tried, I could only see a white patch.
Even Xu Jingrong can't see it.
"Auntie! Auntie! ”
In the drowsiness, someone was calling me, and when he saw that I wasn't awake, he pushed me hard, and I woke up, only to see my senior brother and Shen Xingshen looking at me with concern.
I hadn't woken up from the dream just now, and I had palpitations, and I subconsciously touched my face, only to find that my face was full of tears......
"Senior brother, do I know Liu Weiyang? Is that person Liu Weiyang? ”
The dream in Luohe City, I obviously remember that I once liked a person, that person was dressed in green clothes, carrying a fairy sword, although I couldn't see his face, but I could see that it was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy who liked to use swords.
If that person is Liu Weiyang, then I ...... Who am I?
The senior brother frowned and said unhappily: "What Liu Weiyang is not Liu Weiyang?" ”
Seeing that I was acting abnormally, he looked around and added fearfully, "Be careful, there seems to be a problem here." ”
Still distraught, I asked, "What's the problem?" It's just a normal room. ”
Senior Brother reached out and knocked me on the head, then folded his arms and said, "I heard that there is a secret technique on Kunlun Mountain that can make people fall into a specific illusion. ”
Don't...... Everything I saw just now was just a secret technique set up by Xiao Hese?
What Xu Jingrong, what Liu Weiyang, those are not my own memories, but Xiao Hese's memories?
"Brother Shen, this place is full of weirdness, I think we are still ......"
Before the senior brother finished speaking, he stopped, I was a little strange, I looked along his line of sight, but saw Shen Xingshen standing in front of a wall.
There were many words written on the wall, some large and small, even horizontal and vertical, without any rules, like some drunken person, who scribbled casually when he was drunk and confused, but those words were obviously not written by a drunken person, although after a long time, the handwriting had dried up, but it was still clear that those words were all written in human blood.
I walked over and carefully discerned what was written on the wall: "Ho...... Road...... Often......"
The first line of words, He Daochang.
The second line of words is still He Daochang.
The third line of words is still the same as usual.
……
A wall full of densely packed names of He Daochang.
This should have been written by Xiao Hese.
However, He Daochang had already died in the great war in southern Xinjiang, and in a place like Qishan, what was the use of writing his name with his own blood day and night?
Shen Xingshen slowly stretched out his hand, his fingertips touched the words on the wall, and it took a long time to read: "Ghosts and gods have no answers, how can they say that the way of heaven is always ......"
Unsteadily, he stumbled and almost fell to the ground holding on to the wall.
Senior brother and I stepped forward to help him, but saw Shen Xing close his eyes in pain, and his hoarse voice repeated again: "The ghosts and gods have no answers, how can they say that the way of heaven is always ......"
From the time I met him to the present, it was the first time I had seen Shen Xingshen look so out of shape.
Intuitively, these two sentences were not said by Shen Xingshen himself, so who was begging for ghosts and gods to be unanswered, and who was hesitating and questioning the way of heaven?
A figure flashed at the entrance of the cave, and the girl in blue saw us standing in the room, but did not run away, on the contrary, she held a short knife, and a fierce murderous aura suddenly flashed between her eyebrows: "You lackeys of Kunlun Gate are not allowed to touch the master's things!" ”
