Chapter 175: Rather Death
The night is as cold as water, and the wind is as cold as a knife.
He frowned slightly. No other way? Is that a last resort? How could he not remember what she was struggling with? He'd forgotten a lot about her.
She burst into tears. For so many years, he has been living in seclusion in her heart. She has given up all things, and she has looked down on life and death, but she has never let go of him.
A pair of lovers who once swore an alliance stood like this for a long time. One tries to remember, one tries to remember. Within reach, but can only look at each other silently.
As soon as I think of it, the end of the world is at hand; A thought is extinguished, and the end of the world is at hand. It is difficult to know each other and miss each other, who will complain about this situation?
Eventually, the frozen silence was broken by a pair of birds.
Hua Luan and Dong Cry flew over from nowhere. Hua Luan fell on Hua Mian's shoulder, and Dong Cry fell on Ji Yunye's shoulder. They chirped at them cheerfully and intimately.
After many years of separation, they must be rejoicing in reunion. No wonder I haven't seen the shadow of Dongqi these days, it turns out that it is here to meet an old lover. Let's just fulfill their wish.
She held Hualuan in her hand, rubbed its furry body with her cheek, and then walked to Ji Yunye's side and put it in his hand, and said slowly: "Take good care of them, they have been separated for too long, it's time to reunite." If you miss me in the future, let Dong Cry send me a letter. After saying that, she felt that this was a bit redundant, and the possibility was too slim.
Unexpectedly, he nodded seriously, and then asked with a serious expression: "Is the child in your womb really mine?"
This really surprised Hua Mian, and the fact that he was able to ask this question meant that he had realized that he might have forgotten about what had happened between them. However, at this moment, she was silent, and after a long time, she finally gritted her teeth and said ruthlessly: "This child is Kang Muning's, and I will only say that the child is yours when I am angry with him." There were many offends before, and I still hope for Haihan. β
I don't know if it's an illusion, but for a moment, she saw a look of disillusionment in his eyes. However, the next moment he said with relief: "It's not good." The Empress went all the way. β
Hua Mian didn't linger any longer, turned around and walked out of the Shuihua Palace quickly. The tear stains on his face were blown cold by the wind of the winter night, and this coldness went from his pores to his bones.
She disappeared from her field of vision for a long time before Ji Yunye moved her steps and paced back into the room. Anything can deceive, but eyes don't. When she looked at him, there was love in her eyes that could not be dissolved. She must have loved him very much. But if you love him, why should you abandon him? If you abandoned him, why did you come to him again? It's just an amorous woman who attracts bees and butterflies everywhere, what do you want her to do?
On the second day, Ji Yunye sent them out of the palace gate in a polite manner. The carriage had gone far away, and Hua Mian still held the curtain and stared at the figure closely, not even blinking his eyes.
This silent farewell made everyone present feel heartache.
"Stop!"
An urgent call broke the oppressive atmosphere. Everyone looked at Kang Muning in surprise.
The carriage came to a slow stop, and Comunen instructed the coachman to turn around.
Hua Mian said puzzledly: "What's wrong?" Did something fall behind? β
Kang Muning didn't answer, but only took her into his arms, and as the force on his hand increased, the circles under his eyes gradually reddened.
Hua Mian said strangely: "Why are you crying?" Is it uncomfortable? β
Kang Muning's chest rose and fell violently, and he choked up for a while: "I don't want you to be unhappy." β
Hua Mian suddenly realized something, and hurriedly said to the coachman: "Stop!" β
The carriage came to a steady stop again.
"Turn around!"
"Don't turn around!"
The coachman finally lost his patience: "Let's wait until you have discussed it, and then we will leave." β
Kang Muning said: "Go to him, you will have a good time after giving him the antidote." β
Hua Mian smiled at him: "Didn't you say you don't want me to be unhappy?" β
"Yes, the way you look is heart-wrenching, since leaving him makes you so painful, then I might as well fulfill you."
"This pain is only temporary. If you leave alone because you're with him, I'll be miserable for the rest of my life. Would you like to? β
At this moment, Kang Muning was speechless, so he could only hold her tighter in his arms.
Ji Yunye had been standing outside the palace gate and watching them. As the carriage faded away, he suddenly felt as if something was missing in his heart. When the carriage turned back, he was overjoyed. To his disappointment, however, the carriage soon turned around and left him again. The loss in my heart is even better than the talent.
Along the way, the carriage traveled slowly and stopped, as if to take care of the sick, young and pregnant women, and as if it was a race to see all the scenery of the world. They did not return directly to Amaterasu, but turned a corner and passed through Nanxiu into Dili's territory.
In the words of Hua Burma, the climate in the south is pleasant, which is suitable for recuperation. It's just that by the time they arrived at Dili, it had already entered the early spring of the following year from early winter. The recovery of all things is a good sign. However, Kang Muning's body was weakening day by day. At first, he was often able to walk on his own, but lately his legs have become so swollen that he can't leave a wheelchair.
Hua Mian knew that this was a sign of heart and kidney failure. She remembered telling him that she was going to do a palm dance with him on the highest mountain in the world. Although he can't dance now, he can still climb the highest mountain with him. While this may seem strange to a seriously ill person and an eight-month pregnant woman, she believes that with perseverance and slow climbing, she can always reach the top of the mountain.
Everyone tacitly agreed, prepared some necessary items, and then left.
With an altitude of 5,000 feet, Xiuli Mountain is not only the highest mountain in the world, but also faces the sea in the east and faces the narrow Phoenix Island across the sea. In the cascading mountains that are like the rushing waves and the huge waves emptying, it stands on the west shore of the East China Sea, and it pierces into the sky like a sharp sword.
Ling Yue hugged Bao'er, Hua Mian held her big belly, Pei Yingshi and Ji Lingzhi took turns carrying Kang Muning, and they finally succeeded in climbing to the top of the mountain half a month later.
At that time, there was no cloud, the breeze was blowing, and a hazy mist gathered on the top of the mountain, blooming with strange brilliance under the afterglow of the setting sun, like a crown.
Looking around, there is an endless blue sea, a continuous mountain range with dragons and snakes dancing, mountains and water shadows, just like a solemn but majestic ink painting.
Hua Mian couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Standing on the top of the mountain, I feel my insignificance. What are you thinking of at the moment? β
Ji Ling said: "The sea is boundless, the sky is the shore, and the mountain is the peak." β
Pei Yingshi continued: "I am not afraid of clouds and clouds, but I am at the top." β
Hua Mian looked at Ling Yue: "What about you?" β
Ling Yue's eyes looked at the vast sea water deeply, and said for a long time: "Bite through the thousands of mountains to the sea, and the hundred rivers will not regret the eastward flow of water." β
Hua Mian said: "I understand what the two of them mean, they are nothing more than boasting that they can stand tall and see far, so what does Ah Yue mean?" β
Ling Yue turned her eyes to look at her and smiled dotingly: "You will naturally understand in the future." β
Hua Mian looked at Kang Muning with an "oh" sound: "What did you think of?" β
Kang Muning said faintly: "You can see Phoenix Island here. When I die, you will bury me here so that I can see you at all times. β
The good mood of successfully climbing the mountain was suddenly replaced by full of sorrow, Hua Mian hugged him, cried bitterly, and said: "I beg you not to die!" β
Kang Muning patted her shoulder lightly, pointed to the sunset and said, "Look, how beautiful the sunset is." β
Hua Mian couldn't help but turn her head to look, only to see the original cloudless sky, I don't know when countless graceful clouds appeared, in the glow of the sunset like colorful flowers blooming in an instant. At this moment, she was shocked by this dignified scenery with a little Zen, and her heart suddenly became peaceful.
After a long time, she gently opened her lips and said: "I want to accompany you to the ends of the earth until I see through the scenery of the world, and then accompany you to watch the long stream of water." β
"Yes, someone will accompany you to watch the long stream. In the future, there will be someone to accompany you overnight. β
She couldn't stop crying: "However, there is no one named Kang Muning in the world. He would call me 'Little Myanmar'er', and he would say, 'The green mountains do not change, the green waters will flow forever, and I will always be your backing.'" ββ
He couldn't speak anymore, only took her into his arms and slowly shed tears.
Time is short, and the end of the world is far away. The day has finally arrived.
After watching the sunrise for the third time, Kang Muning finally couldn't hold it anymore, and he asked Hua Mian to play for him the song he played at Dongli's birthday banquet five years ago.
She had already seen his decadence, but she was powerless to change anything, so she could only accompany him as best she could. She put the flute on her lips with red and swollen eyes, and the soothing and mournful "Millennium Elegance" flowed out of her fingers, like crying, complaining, sad and sad, as if she had seen through the vicissitudes of the world, and as if she was reminiscing about the past. Tears flooded the melody of sorrow.
A trembling hand held a plain brocade and gently wiped the tears from her face, and after a moment it drooped down like a dead leaf butterfly that had exhausted its strength.
The veil fell, but the wind blew it again, and the cross-stitched word "Burma" in the corner stretched.
Hua Mian's eyes widened suddenly, this was the handkerchief that she had in his mouth when she stitched up his wound on Yuxue Peak five years ago, and he secretly hid it and kept it with him.
The handkerchief fluttered down the mountain. She wanted to chase it, but there was nothing she could do but watch it disappear in front of her eyes.
Turning his eyes to Kang Muning, who was sleeping peacefully in the wheelchair, Hua Mian leaned over and dropped a final kiss on his lips.
A song echoed in my ears: "The wind and rain turn into flowers, time can't catch up with the white horse, are you still holding on to the dream words in your young palm?" The clouds are surging into summer, the tears are evaporated by the years, who is lost on this road? We say that we will not be separated, but we must always be together, even if we are enemies of time, even if we are separated from the whole world. The wind blows the snowflakes, blows our hair white, and when we said that we would break into the world together, do you remember? In the middle of summer that year, the wish was infinitely great, and we joined hands in a boat and rowed across the river of sorrow. You once said that you will never be separated, but you will always be together, and now I want to ask you, is it just a child's talk? The naΓ―ve years can't bear to be bullied, I don't live up to you when I am young, I beg you not to erase the heavy snow, the traces of our together, the heavy snow can't erase them, the marks we give each other. Tonight and night, the grass leaves, the bright moon night sends you thousands of miles, and in the coming year, the autumn wind rises. β
