136 The Man in the Coffin (Past)

Through those ancient and sad moonlight, I seemed to smell the fragrance of books, ink, and flowers.

"It's almost there." The rustling of the few leaves on the trees when the wind blows sounds sad and gentle, as if to say something to passers-by.

Sha Lan glanced into the cave, the sunlight was refracted into the hole in his eyes, dazzling as if it were real, but the cave was as dark as ink, and there was really nothing to see. The man paused and then said, "Because man is the favorite of God created in his own image, he is blessed with both cultivation and survival. All living beings are responsible for cultivating their human form. ”

"After the python king wants to cultivate into a human form, he also wants to see how special the people in the world are, so he has been cultivating for a thousand years. So the python was reincarnated in the human world and experienced the human world. ”

"And Python Jun's companion is a green snake named Xue'er, who has not yet cultivated his human body and is left alone in the cave to practice,"

"Until the python came back, they had a big quarrel, and the python turned white overnight; The green snake that is only one step away from cultivating the human body is scattered and cultivated, and there is no chance to transform in his life. The gentleman's voice seemed to sigh, and his face was expressionless. I don't know why, it seems that he is always calm as if he is out of the world, as if there will never be a trace of turmoil in his heart, Sha Lan can't see a man clearly.

"Why did Python Jun turn white overnight?"

"Because he thought of a girl, tossing and turning, but he could not see him.

"Isn't that girl a green snake?"

"He is in the world, in love with a girl." The gentleman stopped talking, and he suddenly became silent. It is like an ancient well and a deep pool.

His silence made him look like a Buddha, standing on a high place and looking down on the glory and disgrace of the world.

"Why did the gentleman tell me so much?" Sha Lan asked him.

"You need to know that, don't you?"

"I just see that Mr. is not a person who is willing to speak, but he said this for me, and I am grateful to him."

He suddenly felt as if there was a feather, tickling back and forth in the depths of his heart, as if people were a little softer.

"I suddenly understand why Python-kun would be desperate for that human girl." The gentleman reached out and touched Sha Lan's hair and said:

"I will tell you many more things in the future, until one day there is one between us who no longer needs each other."

At first, Sha Lan was a little afraid of him, and he didn't dare to speak, so he had to stand there quietly, so silent that only the sound of the wind piercing the treetops.

She never imagined that one day, such a person would say such things to her.

She is the kind of girl who is very obedient in the eyes of adults, will grow up quickly, get married soon, and live her life quickly, and she will be like this in this life.

Originally, she stood on one side and her husband stood on the other, and there was no intersection, but this time, instead of putting her hand in his palm, she reached out and pinched part of his palm. The warm feeling gradually emanated from the depths of Sha Lan's heart, filling the whole body and mind, like air and water overflowing countless tiny pores.

He looked at Sha Lan, her dark eyes were deep and dark, not like a child's eyes, her focused expression was even less like a child, something occupied the child's mind.

"Huh!" He laughed slightly.

Then he said, "And after that, many years later, one day I happened to pass by here, and he fell down in front of me and asked, 'What if I lose one of the most important things?' ”

"I asked him if that thing was more important than living.

He said that if he couldn't live, how could he think that something was important, of course he lived. But if it is missing, I am afraid that I don't want to live.

He's lost her now, what's going on?

I said, "If you can't bear her, then go to her, to the ends of the earth, find her no matter what, and firmly believe that one day you will find her, and then bring her back here, or stay with her."

"I looked for her, but I forgot about her." He shook his head and replied to me. So he left.

I didn't stop him at the time.

A few more years passed, and I don't remember exactly when. He came to me again and told me the story of him and the girl he loved so much. If you want me to help him remember it and tell it to others, he said that the world is a thousand things, maybe one day she will hear it by chance, and she can think of something, I don't know. ”

"With such intentions, how could he lose her?

"Look." The gentleman stretched out his other hand and patted it lightly twice on the top of Sha Lan's head, and Sha Lan looked at the white python hole,

At that time, the town was an obscure town on the outskirts of the ancient kingdom of Luodian, and many merchants often gathered here at that time, and it was very prosperous.

A young man and a gentle girl, they fell in love here, in a town full of flowers and plants. They had a beautiful vision, a beautiful family, and a quiet and peaceful place where two people sat in the courtyard and looked at each other and smiled.

Later, the war broke out, and a dispute broke out between the Luodian Kingdom and the Ming Dynasty royal family, and the young man Rota said goodbye to his beloved girl.

After a farewell, the two places are lovesick.

When saying goodbye, Rota once said to the girl: "Life should come back, death should be Sauvignon Blanc".

The girl tearfully promised him that she would wait for him to return.

The war went on year after year, and the young man who had sworn to return had not returned, and the girl was changing her red clothes to white day by day, and her green silk was changing to white hair.

It is the hard years that separate love.

The war had devoured Rota mercilessly, and he was not reconciled, he could never return to his hometown of longing for a long time, nor could he see the girl who was haunted by his dreams, and he promised that she would definitely go back to her.

He was going to keep his promise, and his soul would not disappear, so the dead body crawled out of the grave and stood on the road, saying over and over again to passers-by, "Are you going to the town?" In that town, where flowers and plants are everywhere, say hello to a girl who lives there for me, who used to be my girl..."

As the years passed, the town gradually fell into disuse, the mountain flowers bloomed one after another, the faint fragrance swayed in the years, and Rota sighed over and over again, wandering for hundreds of years to loneliness.

None of those who had heard his story had ever piggybacked on the girl's reply.

Later, on this mountain road, no one was willing to listen to Rota's story again.

Rota slept in his coffin until twenty years ago, when a girl took a scythe from harvesting parsley and sage to open the darkness on his face, he could not remember the girl's appearance, but he remembered the smell of the town, the smell of parsley and sage, thyme and rosemary.

But there seemed to be something different, his girl was very afraid of her, she thought he was a devil, and tried all her best to escape from his side, he was very reluctant, but he still let her go, after all, people and ghosts have different paths.

But after she left, she never came back, and he missed her very much, and when he met someone, he always wanted him to tell him how his girl was doing, and what she was doing, but the first sight of the person who came wanted to run away from him.

The man also had a scythe in his hand, which smelled of rosemary and thyme, and he finally understood that his girl would never come back, and he went back to the cold coffin, and wanted to never wake up.

Soon the villagers down the hill violently lifted his darkness, and they angrily pierced his limbs with spikes, exposing him to the sun, and the spikes were so hot and the sun was so hot that they burned his body and burned his skin. But as the years wore on, and his soul was gradually dissipating, a man pulled out the nail and told him that in the future a man would pass by, and that she would bring his greeting to his girl, and she would bring that girl to him.

So he never returned to that coffin for more than 20 years, he wandered through the mountains and forests, transformed into all kinds of appearances, he observed everyone who passed by, and the mountain became his eyes.

One day, two men went up the mountain with a little girl, and an impulse suddenly arose in his heart.

He knew two men, one of whom had people nail his body with a long nail, and the other had once driven a long nail into his palm.

The burns from the spike were still there, he had wanted their lives, but now he was grateful for them for bringing her to him, the girl had more fragrance on her body, and when she laughed, he suddenly wanted to forget the smile he had forgotten for a long time.

There is an aura on this girl that makes the ghostly thing irresistible.

He was thinking that after so much time, his girl would have long since died, and it would not be his girl who would come back, so it would be better to let this girl accompany her through the long years after that, it seems that it would be good.

He knows the girl's story, but if she is willing to accompany him, he will treat her as well as his own girl, make her forget that person, and let herself become the person in his = her heart, even if it is okay to deceive her for the rest of her life.

She reminded him of his former lover, and also made him see his obsession clearly, he now just wants to create a future that is the same as the past, and no longer worries about the impossibility of coming back to spend the long years since.

He deceived everyone and took the girl back to the yard he had built for his lover, which was their past.

But soon, the girl's lover was found, and he beat Rota back into the abyss of endless darkness.

Having seen the taste of the sun, how could he be willing to return to the boundless darkness.

It's like a wild beast that is injured and doesn't feel it when he licks his wounds alone in a cave, but once he returns to the cave after being booed and warmed, he can't stand it.

The girl soothed him, not angry, not afraid, as if he were a friend.

Then the girl and the man were going to depart, and they lived not far away, and sometimes they came to see him, and sometimes he went to see her.

Once, the girl listened to his story. She told him that she would go and find a girl for him with the scent of parsley, sage, thyme, and rosemary.

However, before she had time to look for it, a girl stepped on the mountain, and when Ning Qiao was wandering in the mountains, she saw her sitting on the edge of the cliff crying, and after asking, she learned that the girl's father asked the girl to drop out of school to help people with housework and be a nanny, and the girl was very sad and wanted to die.

Ning Qiao found out that she was Rota's lover in her previous life, and in the end, she stayed on the mountain to accompany Rota, lived in the small courtyard on that side, and never went down the mountain again.

He knows the girl's story, but if she is willing to accompany him, he will treat her as well as his own girl, make her forget that person, and let herself become the person in his = her heart, even if it is okay to deceive her for the rest of her life.
