Chapter 374: Chu Ge!
"Thousands of miles of mountains, wind and rain in other places, I would like to listen to the local sound, I would like to be able to taste the wine at home, Mo Dao is separated by a thousand mountains, and I dream day and night, but I hope to turn into a butterfly one day, against the wind and frost, I will step on my hometown again......"
The green mountains are still there, the green water is clear, the cooking smoke is curling, and the vast singing voice is dry in the dusk, and the singing voice is not very good, because the dry voice of the singer is like sand, it seems a little hoarse and sour, but the vast bitter taste in the song makes people can't help but cry.
Lian Nai looked at the man leaning against the tree, holding the leaves, singing softly, she had never heard this song before, but she felt a little familiar, which inexplicably made her feel sad.
When the singing gradually became low, Lian Nai unconsciously rubbed her eyes, her eyes were a little red, she walked over and said softly, "You, are you homesick?" ”
Li Tomb took the leaf in his mouth and smiled at Ren Nai, because his teeth had fallen out and his face was stained with disgusting scars, so when he laughed, he looked extremely terrifying.
Lian Nai is used to it, it has been four or five days since she rescued Li Tomb that day, and she also knows that although Li Tomb does not talk much, he is an excellent person.
Yang Nianzu also secretly told her that the origin of Li Tomb may be unusual, and asked her not to inquire indiscriminately, but after listening to this song today, she suddenly had an impulse to know what kind of unknown past there was behind Li Tomb.
"You sing so well. Can you tell me what the name of this song is? ”
Lian Nai held her knees with her hands, sat beside Li Tomb, tilted her head, and asked.
"Chu Ge, this song is called Chu Ge. It's a very old song, you probably haven't heard it. ”
Li Tomb whispered, and Rena always felt that there seemed to be too many things hidden in his gaze. Sometimes the indifference is frightening, and sometimes it makes her feel that under the frozen indifference, there is a fire-like passion and sadness.
"It's the song of your hometown. I love it. ”
Lian Nai nodded, hesitated, and then said, "Can you tell me what your hometown is like?" ”
"My Hometown ......"
Li Tomb's gaze flickered. Looking at Lianna, there was a smile on her face, but it was more ugly than crying, "That's a very beautiful place." There is a big river called the Yangtze River. There is a big river called the Yellow River, and there is a long, long Great Wall. ”
Rena was surprised, "That must be beautiful." If I have the chance, I'd like to check it out. ”
Li Tomb looked at Lian Nai in a daze. Lian Nai subconsciously glanced down at herself, not feeling that there was anything wrong with her, but why did she suddenly feel that Li Tomb's eyes were suddenly full of pity and sorrow, as if she was suffering her ignorance.
A very strange feeling arose in Liannai's heart, making her suddenly dare not look directly at Li Tomb's gaze, as if her ignorance was a great mistake and hurt, as if she should not be unaware. It's as if she should feel that the hometown that Li Tomb said is very familiar.
So Lian Nai was a little worried. Lowering his head, he muttered, "Yes...... I'm sorry. ”
"Why do you say you're sorry?"
Li Tomb asked softly.
"I ...... I don't know, but as if I should. Am I saying the wrong thing? ”
Rena said cautiously.
"Nope. You're not saying the wrong thing, it's my problem. What more do you want to know? It's okay, just ask. ”
Li Tomb looked at Liannai's clumsy and cautious appearance. He laughed softly and said.
"Tell us about your hometown? I'm curious, is the Yangtze River very long? Is it longer than Lancang? And the Yellow River, isn't it yellow? And, there's. Is the Great Wall a long, long city? ”
"You lie, how can there be only one sun and one moon in the sky."
"We actually had ten suns there, but then a man called a descendant shot the other nine suns down from the sky......"
"How is that possible? Could that descendant be the powerhouse of the Seventh Realm? ”
"Perhaps, he also has a wife named Chang'e, who flew to the moon. There is a big, big laurel tree on the moon, and a very cute jade rabbit ......"
"During the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone has to eat moon cakes, have a family reunion, and enjoy the moon together, at that time, you will see Chang'e and her jade rabbit dancing on the moon, maybe because of loneliness."
"And a long time ago, someone wrote the first word, and I read it to you......"
"I hope that people will last a long time, thousands of miles together. It's so well written, is there anything else? ”
Lian Nai was completely fascinated by the hometown story told by Li Tomb, although reason told her that there would be no place with only one sun and one moon in this world, and there would be no Yangtze River, the Great Wall, the Yellow Mountain, and the Yellow River.
But she suddenly felt that this may be true, and it must be true, otherwise the Li Tomb in front of her should be so pitiful and pathetic.
"And many more. But it's late today, and I'll tell you tomorrow. Go to sleep. ”
Li Tomb smiled and patted Lian Nai's head, raised his head, and saw March Zhenghui, his eyes suddenly became a little gloomy, this situation and this scene, bit by bit, are reminding him that this is not his hometown, this is not the earth.
reminded him even more, whether it was Lian Nai, Yang Nianzu, or anyone in the Huaxu Kingdom he came into contact with, maybe in his eyes, they were all descendants of the earth, but maybe in their eyes, this is their hometown, and they have long forgotten what the earth looks like, and only regard other places as their hometowns.
"Oh. But you haven't taught me to sing Chu songs? You teach me first, teach me, and then I'll go to sleep. ”
Lian Nai smiled at Li Tomb, but she didn't notice that she suddenly became very close to Li Tomb, as if she was a family member.
"The faint fragrance of wildflowers, the smoke covers the dreamland, farewell to the hometown thousands of miles away, the world has changed ......"
Seeing Lian Nai humming a song and bouncing back to the house, Li Tomb retracted his gaze and looked at the sky indifferently, knowing that the pond frogs were chirping, Li Tomb lowered his head and said indifferently, "Come out." ”
Yang Nianzu walked out from behind the tree on the side in silence, came to Li Tomb, his eyes flickered a few times, and said in a low voice: "I can't do anything about your injury." But my brother may be able to save you, wait for me to write a letter, and you will go tomorrow. ”
"Oh."
Li Tomb glanced at Yang Nianzu and nodded, "I know." Trouble. ”
"No hassle. It's because I'm not good at medicine and can't save you. ”
Yang Nianzu sighed.
"My body, I know, is hopeless. While there is still time, if you don't say it, I want to go and look around. ”
Li Tomb said lightly.
Yang Nianzu was silent for a moment, "It seems that I am a villain in vain." Actually, I'm not afraid that you will affect us, but I think you must have something to do when you kill us from such a far away. ”
Li Tomb glanced at Yang Nianzu and nodded slightly, Lian Nai is still young, maybe he can't see what the injuries on his body mean, but although Yang Nianzu is just a country man, he has lived for so many years after all, how can he not see the injuries on Li Tomb's body, shocking, how can it be described as terminally ill.
Perhaps it can be better described by the words "long-term battle", Yang Nianzu is reluctant to guess the identity of Li Tomb, but he also knows that Li Tomb will not really be just a beggar.
After chatting a few words, it was determined that Li Tomb would leave tomorrow, Yang Nianzu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, made a gesture to Li Tomb, turned around and went back to the big house, and took a look at Lian Nai's room, and found that his daughter seemed to be very excited, still humming a vast tune, listening to a few words, and asked with a smile: "Did he teach you?" ”
"Hmm."
Lian Nai blushed a little and stopped singing, but couldn't help but say: "Daddy, this is the song of his hometown, his hometown is far, far away, there is a very long, long river, called the Yangtze River, and a very big river, called the Yellow River. And the Great Wall, by the way, he said that there is only one sun and one moon in his hometown, because there is a man named Houyi who shot down the other nine suns, and there is Chang'e on the moon, there is a jade rabbit, and there is a big, big laurel tree......"
Lian Nai was a little excited to share the story she heard with Yang Nianzu, not noticing Yang Nianzu's original smiling expression, as she recounted, it gradually became solemn, then shocked, and finally all turned into a daze.
"Daddy. What happened to you? ”
Lian Nai finally noticed the change in Yang Nianzu's expression, stopped talking, and said with concern.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. I just think his hometown is really strange. ”
Yang Nianzu smiled reluctantly, "It's not early, you go to bed quickly, there is something to do tomorrow." ”
"Oh."
Lian Nai nodded obediently, covered the quilt, and couldn't help but ask, "Daddy, is there really such a place?" ”
"Perhaps."
Yang Nianzu said a perfunctory word, blew out the light, and only after seeing Lian Nai fall asleep did he exit the room, strode to the door, and saw Li Tomb sitting alone under the tree, looking at the night sky blankly, feeling a little sour in his heart.
Turning around and walking to his room, he searched for piles of medical books, and after searching for a while, he finally found a book in the yellowed scroll at the bottom of the box.
The pages were yellowed and old, curled and covered with a thick layer of dust, apparently not opened for a long time, not a medical book, not a precious book, just some foolish words.
Yang Nianzu read it when he was a child, it is said that it was left by his great-grandfather, it has been almost two hundred years, because it is just some idiotic babble such as the Arabian Nights, so it has long been ignored, if it wasn't for the curiosity he read when he was a child, he would not have remembered it at all when he heard Lian Nai talk about it today.
Taking out the scroll, Yang Nianzu hesitated, hesitating whether to open it, he read it when he was very young, and there was nothing too special in his memory, but some ridiculous words, although his parents did not mention it to him, but he also knew that his great-grandfather seemed to be a madman.
It's just that the stories that Rena told him today seem to be somewhat similar to the idiot babble in this book, so it makes him a little curious. (To be continued......)
