Chapter 418: A Clear Path
This is a figure that is familiar to me, I don't know how many times I have seen it in my dreams. She has an innate melancholy, and there is always a faint sadness between her eyebrows. Shadow by the Rift Valley, how many years has she been dead? However, every time she appeared in my illusion, she always made me feel that she was still alive, that she was a living person of flesh and blood.
She stood in front of me, as quiet as a pool of spring water, and looked at me so quietly. I felt short of breath, but I couldn't break free from my half-dream. After looking at me for a long time, she sighed, slowly straightening my hair, which had been blown by the night wind, her hands warm, as if she was caressing the most precious thing in her life.
"Zixin, your appearance has been imprinted in my heart." She stretched her brows and tried her best to squeeze out a smile, but behind that smile, there was an unspeakable attachment and resentment: "Zixin, do you know how reluctant I am, I have waited for so many years, I have been looking forward to seeing you again"
I couldn't fully wake up, but I could clearly feel that she was there this time, and it was completely different from the previous ones. This time, her voice, her tone, all carried a kind of sadness of life and death.
"Zixin, go ahead, this world is turned upside down, I still understand you." She gently withdrew her hand, took one last look at me, lowered her head, and burst into tears: "I know, you are different from the past, this time I will be a farewell Zixin, I don't blame you, I don't blame you, I just ask you, and occasionally only occasionally in the future, I will think of me"
She was very reluctant, as if she wanted to drive her life away from her body. She cried, leaned over slowly, touched my face, closed her eyes suddenly, turned around and left. Listening to her words, I knew that this time of separation, it seemed that we would never see each other again. My heart was like a knife, but I couldn't move, and my whole body felt like it was filled with lead. Her figure never looked back, walking away from her eyes until it was completely lost in the endless night.
I felt like I was in a nightmare, constantly writhing and struggling, she was gone, I couldn't see it, I couldn't catch up. I didn't go back to sleep, I struggled for a long time in this torturous pain. In my ignorance, I felt that someone kept slapping my face and calling my name, and I was disturbed by external forces, and my awakening came very suddenly, and I broke free all of a sudden. The name of the formation is carried by the liver.
In front of Jin Dashao and Lao Fuba's faces, I immediately stood up, this path that stretched into the distance was empty, I couldn't see the shadow of Lingling, and I still held the little pottery horse in my hand. Thinking back to the scene in the dream at this moment, the faint sadness in her body also infected me at the same time.
Farewell, is this really going to be a farewell? From now on, I will never see her again?
Holding the little pottery horse, I had mixed feelings. I've been looking for this green horse, and now it's in my hands, but when I got it, I seemed to have lost a lot. This may be what my grandfather once said to me, "willing". A person's whole life has been hovering between these two words. What you gain comes with what you lose.
I always feel a kind of indescribable sadness, but when I found this horse, the road to the Natural Heavenly Palace seemed to be clearer. I buried all the distractions in my heart, and the safety of this great river is the most important thing at the moment.
"Little Pony, let's talk." Lei Zhentian came to me with a big face, and stretched out his hand to touch the little Tao Ma: "How to go to Chaotian Palace?" ”
Lei Zhenren had already left a bad impression on Xiao Taoma, and he was smiling like a chrysanthemum, but Xiao Taoma did not react. We discussed as we walked, and when we walked near the boat by the river, the faint smell of grass and wood smoke seemed to be still faintly wafting, and when the little Tao Ma smelled this smell, he seemed to be much more energetic, and the feather marks on both sides of his body were faintly glowing. My heart moved, I drove Lei Zhenren aside, and then took out a small piece of "fruit horse belly" and shook it in front of the little Tao Ma.
Obviously, this green horse was able to obey, and it was definitely explained by the spirit spirit that he wanted it to guide us on the way to the Natural Heavenly Palace. As soon as Lei Zhenren left, Xiao Taoma immediately reacted, the smoke in the belly of the horse was swirling, and two handwritings were faintly displayed on the horse. I didn't know it, so I showed it to the old man.
"Three thousand weak water, only take one scoop, you have time to read books and recognize words, don't always entangle with women, I grew up in the forest, I didn't know how to read before, I was self-taught." Lao Fuba looked at the words on the little Tao Ma and said, "Hun Lun." ”
"Hun Lun?" I realized that little Taoma had hinted at a clue, but no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't remember if I had ever heard the word before. Is this a place name? Or is it a code name?
"Let me think about it." Lao Fuba squatted on the ground and shrunk his head and thought hard, after a long time, he suddenly slapped his thigh, and said: "Before, I chatted with an old hunter who went into the mountains to hunt, talking about some old things, he said, Kunlun Mountain was a long time ago, not called Kunlun, but called Hun Lun. ”
As soon as Lao Fuba said, the clues were immediately clear, and Xiao Taoma really pointed out a clear path. The legendary Natural Heavenly Palace is in distant Kunlun. It is a mountain range that has been deified for many years, and grandpa said that Kunlun is the origin of the dragon veins in the world and the abode of the ancient gods. The Xuanhuang Ancestral Bird is older than the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, and its heavenly palace is in Kunlun.
There was a burst of uncontrollable joy in my heart, but when I thought about it again, how big is the vast Kunlun? The Natural Heavenly Palace is hidden in Kunlun, how to find it? However, when his eyes turned to the little Tao Ma in his hand, he felt a little more steady, and he was willing to say Kunlun, and he would inevitably guide a clearer route, as long as he took the little Tao Ma and went all the way.
The situation is so urgent, we can't wait for a moment. I made arrangements right away, the road was long, and I didn't know what twists and turns would be in between. Back then, the Xuanhuang Ancestral Bird's car came from the Natural Heavenly Palace to the Great River Beach, and it came from the sky, and I had to walk over it step by step with my feet. As soon as Lei Zhenren heard that he was going to the Natural Heavenly Palace, Harazi fell half a foot long, but this product must not be brought, otherwise it will definitely be bad. I thought about it, no one else can do it, Lao Fuba is the most suitable, he runs fast in case of trouble, and chats with those weird things.
Plan ahead and start preparing right away. This road may be a farther road than going to the Holy Land, we brought a lot of things, and the traffic was still backward in those years, and after arriving in Qinghai, there was no means of transportation to rely on. There was nothing to say all the way, Lao Fuba and I settled down in Xining first, and we have already inquired about it, and the closest road from here is from Xining to Golmud.
"What are we going to do?" Lao Fuba said: "When we got to that Ge What wood, there are more than 300 miles of non-traffic area, only to the mountain pass, let's go over?" ”
"Let's talk about it first." Come to think of it, it was a very wild stretch of road at the time, and there might have been no other way than to travel on two legs.
The result was really the same as we thought, after we arrived in Golmud, we could only walk more than 300 miles to the south, and then approach the mountain pass, but fortunately, we were used to running around, and this road was over with gritted teeth, wasting some time at most. Lao Fuba and I were talking and hurrying on our way, perhaps for more than ten miles, when we heard the roar of a car in the distance, and the dust flew along with the wheels, tumbling in the open field. I turned my head to look at it, and my heart suddenly tightened, it was a flat-top truck that I had seen before, and the people under the old knife had any big moves, and when they needed to transport equipment and personnel, they usually used this kind of car.
"It's ruthless! Follow here from the river beach! "Lao Fuba also knows such a car, but the car is some distance away from us, and it is not clear who is in the car and how many people there are. The idea of running first and then talking about it immediately occurred in my mind, but this place is empty, and it seems that you can see the sky at a glance, and Lao Fuba and I are two obvious targets, and we can't run away at all.
The two of us immediately started to accelerate, but no matter how fast our legs were, they couldn't get faster than the wheels of a car. After a while, the car caught up from behind at a gallop, and the flying dust immediately drowned me and Lao Fuba, choking on breath. My fists immediately clenched, ready to meet the enemy. But in the dust, I saw that the car seemed to be sitting alone.
Bang dang
As soon as the car door opened, a person jumped out of it, coughed twice in the dust, rubbed his eyes and said to us: "Running so fast, where are you going?" ”
This man has a very loud voice, and he is a very strange person. There was only one other party, and my heart was at ease, and when I looked back, it was a sturdy man in his thirties, with a dense layer of stubble on his face and a dirty military coat wrapped around his body. I stopped, I was young, and I came out of the big river beach, full of rustic air that I couldn't get rid of, and I talked to the other party like this, and the man didn't suspect it at all. I told him that we were from the river beach, and that we were taking advantage of the fact that our family was not busy at the moment, and we took the old man out to walk around and have fun.
"My grandfather has long heard that Kunlun Mountain is not idle, he has never been here, and he has been talking about it for many years." I pointed to the old man and said to the man, "When you get old, if you don't come out again, you won't be able to walk." ”
"Good boy, filial piety." The man was familiar with himself, grinned, and said, "By the way, let's get in the car and give you a ride." ”
I'm young, and I'm the kind of kind person who is kind of person, and the man is willing to help us and beckons the two of us to get into the car. After chatting on the way, the man's name was Wang Qianqian, who was a farmer in Xinjiang, and when he went to Qinghai to do business, he also took the opportunity to sneak to Golmud to see the Kunlun Pass.
"I've always heard people say that I haven't been here once, but this time we also opened our eyes." Wang Qianqian talked to us while driving, the land was deserted, the time passed unconsciously, and in a blink of an eye it was eight or nine o'clock in the evening, Wang Qianqian said: "Drive a little longer, let's stop, the car will be overnight, and I will be able to keep it tomorrow." ”
It was pitch black all around, only the headlights of the car were flickering, and just as Wang Qianqian was looking for a suitable place to park, I saw a tattered carriage swaying in the darkness outside the window, and an old man in a tattered leather jacket with a whip turned his head to look at me indifferently.
