Once by chance.

Two times is inevitable.

"Who the hell is that aunt? What does she know? ”

"Was there a third person there was on that day? Who rescued me from the river, and did he never show up? ”

Li Zhen was puzzled.

Vaguely, he felt as if he had grasped something. But when I think about it, I don't catch anything.

A key clue seemed to be lingering in his mind. But the explanation is not clear......

After eight days of closing the door, Li Zhen finally pushed open the door of his room.

"Master Li."

"Master Li, are you okay?"

|“ Master Li? ”

“……”

As soon as Li Zhen went out, everyone rushed to hear the news.

Li Zhen sat down, was silent for a while, and asked, "Liping." ”

"Master Li here."

"I'll send you a telegram to Xizhou and bring that old blind man who wrote a note, have you sent it down?"

"It's sent down."

Jia Liping patted his chest and said, "That person is coming soon." Xizhou also sent me a telegram back, saying that I was on the way. ”

"It's been eight days, why haven't you come yet?" Li Zhen muttered and said, "Send a wave of people to pick him up on the road, he is very important, and I have a lot of things I want to ask him." ”

"Yes."

Jia Liping hurriedly went to make arrangements.

And Li Zhen entered the house again: "He came and told me, don't disturb me during this time." ”

"Ah......h

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Looking at each other, I always feel that this matter does not seem to be so simple. Because Li Zhen didn't have any sad appearance at all, just full of doubts.

Night.

In a dream.

Zhang Zhi came as promised.

"Li Zhen, I have understood the words of that old blind man in the past two days. One day you hurried past me, and I smelled the smell of history in the air. You are a person trapped by love, and I see your fate. Learn to forget. Maybe in the phoenix-like rebirth, you will be able to get the new life you want. ”

Zhang Zhi said with a serious face: "Don't you think this sentence is familiar? ”

Li Zhen nodded: "Yes, it's very familiar." ”

"How similar are the words of the aunt who once rescued you? The meaning is pretty much the same. Although others will find it inexplicable, you and I know very well that the mystery of this sentence is very deep. ”

"Yes. That's what that aunt said to me at the time. Auntie said: The soul can be touched, what is the distance of time? Every ordinary person is born into this world with a mission. This mission is great and glorious. Because this is the preciousness and wonder of life...... She said I had a kind of mission on my back. And are we the touch of the soul? ”

Li Zhen muttered.

Zhang Zhi also fell into deep thought.

The two were silent together, thinking of the note in Li Zhen's hand now, and then the note left by the woman who had left him. It seems that both of these slips of paper have the same meaning.

Suddenly, Li Zhen and Zhang Zhi opened their eyes at the same time, as if they had thought of something, and shouted in unison in surprise:

"Soul!"

“……”

————

All the way away, the yellow sand is all over the sky.

Not every part of the country in New Kyushu is fertile, and it is not gradual.

Rather, it is a desert to the east, and an oasis to the west.

If the normal earth is a gradual change, according to different climate and temperature and various conditions, the earth presents a 'gradual' change. Then the land of New Kyushu is like a Dalmatian. This piece, that piece, there is no regularity, no gradient, no buffer.

In the yellow sand, the steam convoy hurried into the form and rolled up a cloud of dust.

"Who's that old man?"

"I don't know."

"Why do your superiors attach so much importance to it? To have so many people to escort? ”

"I don't know. I only know that it seems to have something to do with the Kyushu Academy of Sciences. 、”

"A blind man, can he still have anything to do with the Kyushu Academy of Sciences?"

"But it's really awe-inspiring, an old man who has lived for more than nineties. It is not easy for a person to live to be 90 years old, and how many vicissitudes he has experienced. ”

"Yes, a man who was favored by the gods and forgotten by death. If you have more contact with him, you may be contaminated with such a kind of luck and blessing. ”

"It's just that the old man is tossed enough, and the road is bumpy. Alas, didn't it say that the roads in the whole country should be built? Why hasn't it been repaired yet? ”

"There is no repair, and now the expedition team has been planning everywhere. I guess in a few years, we'll be able to enjoy the road dedicated to running cars. ”

“……”

The soldiers chatted.

"I'm hot."

In the carriage, the old blind man had taken off only a sweatshirt, but he walked forward in the scorching sand. The steam car is like a can, and the stuffy person can't get out of the air. Not to mention the ninety-year-old high-necked him, even those young lads are sweating profusely.

"Old man, ...... That window opens? But I'm afraid that your body can't stand the cold wind. Is it okay to blow the wind? ”

The driver turned his head and said with some embarrassment. I feel sorry for this old man, a blind man in his nineties, skinny as wood, is it easy to get sick under this extreme cold and heat?

The old blind man smiled happily: "You are a good boy." ”

"Look at what you said."

The old blind man suddenly sighed: "Stop." ”

"How?"

"Stop、"

The driver was puzzled, but stopped the car anyway.

The people of the convoy got out of the car, stepped on the hot ground where they could fry eggs, and watched in bewilderment as the old blind man jumped off the steam car, and then stood in a daze in the sun.

"Old man Ma?"

The captain of the convoy's escort snorted softly, "Sun poison." Go to the shade. ”

The old blind man did not look back, but said with a smile: "I can't see the sun, so I want to feel the temperature of the sun to the fullest." ”

Everyone frowned suspiciously. What does this mean? It's as if there is no sun in Xizhou.

The old blind man sighed: "People, when you are old, you will become a fine. I don't know who told me a sentence before, sixty knows the destiny of heaven. I'm ninety-eight. My eyes are blind at the threshold of 73, and once I am blind, I will never see the world again. But since then, my ears have heard the most subtle sounds in the world, and I can hear even the sounds outside the world. ”

"Oh, old man, ...... you say this"

The crowd was dumbfounded, not knowing how to reply.

The captain of the security team took an umbrella and said: "Old man, you should bask less in the sun, the solar energy in June and July will kill people." ”

The old blind man shook his head: "You are all good children, and you will be blessed in the future." I just heard someone shouting at me. ”

The security captain frowned and became vigilant: "Who called you?" ”

The old blind man pointed ahead and muttered dreamily: "73 is a hurdle, I have stepped over it." 84 is a hurdle, and I have also stepped over it. 98 and 99 are big hurdles, and I can't get past them this time. ”

Everyone tensed up and held their breath, they all knew that this old blind man was a little bit of a god.

'Poof', the old blind man knelt on the ground, looked up to the sky and sighed: "The only regret in this life is that you can only see the chosen one a little, just a little." This is the most regrettable thing. Bring pen and paper. ”

The security captain hurriedly roared: "Paper! Pen! ”

"Here comes the pen and paper!"

The old blind man fell to his knees, took up his pen and fumbled with his pen to write on the paper, shouting as he wrote, "You are not allowed to read." ”

'Whoa,' everyone turned their heads away.

After a few moments, the old blind man folded the finished paper.

'Tear'. Tearing a piece of cloth from his clothes, he wrapped the note and handed it to the captain of the guard: "You will have the privilege of meeting the man who has gone through the vicissitudes of life. Give this to him and tell him not to rush, open it in three years. ”

The security captain took the cloth bag, and had some inexplicable thoughts in his heart, what is so mysterious? Still open in three years? What's the difference between this and those tips from the old days? This kind of pretending to be a ghost......

Not really. Some words and some things are heard and seen at different times and places, but in fact, the final effect and outcome are different. Maybe these things written by the old blind man are not suitable for Li Zhen to see now.

But the truth is only known to Old Man Ma himself, if Li Zhen knew these things in advance, it would affect the pattern of the world. So, it's a wisdom to take it apart after three years.

Holding a handful of yellow sand, the old blind man looked up at the sun and muttered, "Enough has happened." ”

The last expression is smiling, easy-going, and contented.

"Old man?"

For a long time, someone pushed and shoved. only to find that he could no longer move. Reaching out to touch it, his body was already cold.

"Dead?"

Everyone was shocked, recalling the inexplicable words he said before, and there was some horror and awe in their hearts. A person who can know when he will die and know when someone else will die.

As he said.

I lost my eyes, but I saw more.

It was darkness before my eyes, but I heard voices beyond the world......
