Chu Luoyi raised his eyes to look at the tree full of red cloth strips, and only felt so beautiful, the red cloth strips flying in the sky were like flames, and like blooming tussels, in this noisy black night, but there was a touching beauty, which inexplicably gave birth to hope.

"What is this?"

"This is the Bodhi tree, as long as you write your wish on the red cloth, it will come true." Beiliuhai stood under the tree and looked up at the Bodhi tree with Chu Luoyi.

Chu Luoyi retracted his gaze and landed on the table on the other side, in front of which sat an old man with gray hair, smiling and nodding his wishes to everyone who went to buy red cloth strips.

Chu Luoyi walked up slowly.

"Does the girl want to make a wish?" The old man asked with a squint.

Chu Luoyi nodded, stretched out his fingers and picked up a piece of red cloth.

"A piece of red cloth is two pennies, seeing that the girl is in a bad mood, she will not accept the girl's money, I just hope that the girl's wish will come true." The old man smiled and spoke, making people feel extra warm and kind.

Chu Luoyi forgot to thank him, looked at the golden cinnabar pen placed aside, and slowly lifted it, but he didn't know what to write.

In the past, her wish was to take revenge and rest in peace for the Chu family, but now... Beiliuyun ....

Chu Luoyi looked up a little dazedly, looking at the lotus lanterns floating in the winter river, and didn't know what to write for a while.

Beiliu Cloud... What should I write ...

May you be fame and fortune for generations to come?

Or do you want to open up new territories and eventually become a hegemon?

Or... Looking forward to the subversion of fate, I can accompany you and grow old together.

May you forget the past and never go...

Chu Luoyi was stunned there for a long time, and finally wrote down four words: grow old with you.

A crystal teardrop rolled down Chu Luoyi's cheek, smudged on the red silk cloth, and the golden cinnabar spread with her tears, turning into a delicate glass flower, refracting the golden light in the night.

Growing old with you, only what you want in this life.

Maybe the twists and turns of fate, you and I will never meet again, but Beiliuyun, I want you to know that between this heaven and earth, there will be a person who has gone through the years with you, the vicissitudes of life, feeling what you feel, receiving what you have suffered, looking at the thousands of generations, immortal, or alone with red dust drifting, snow stained white heads.

Chu Luoyi stood on tiptoe and hung the red ribbon on the treetops.

Maybe I will never see you again in this life, but Beiliuyun, in a corner of this world, will eventually have my existence, the road I have walked, the mountains I have passed, the water that I swim away, on this winding road, will eventually turn into my breath, with my love for you.

Beiliuhai stood aside, looking at Chu Luoyi on tiptoe, a touch of tenderness flashed in his eyes, he stepped forward and asked the old man to buy a piece of red silk, wrote down a few numbers hastily, and raised his hand, the red silk was firmly wrapped around the branches, leaving only no regrets.

Chu Luoyi came back to her senses, and the old man asked her with a smile: "Girl, I see that you are still worried, do you want to give you two more ribbons." ”

Chu Luoyi looked at the old man in front of him in a daze, and the old man's somewhat dry fingers gently stuffed the two ribbons into Chu Luoyi's hands again.

Beiliuhai smiled: "Since I sent you, you can write it." ”

Chu Luoyi bowed slightly, walked to the table again, looked at the Beiliuhai like a distant mountain and a sea, and wrote: Joy and smoothness, a lifetime of good health.

Beiliuhai, you are the wisest but most stubborn person I have ever met in the world, you are willing to let feelings dominate your thoughts, you are willing to let feelings affect your judgment, you indulge your heart, you are the coldest, but because of this, you are the most gentle.

Beiliuhai, may you be undefeated in battle, never be injured, may you be happy and smooth, and I will be healthy.

Looking at the last ribbon left in his hand, Chu Luoyi clenched the pen in his hand, and was about to pick up the pen to write something, when the old man on the side spoke again: "Girl, the Bodhi tree is a compassionate thing, and if you don't forget your original intention, you have to always." ”

Chu Luoyi's hand paused, lowered his eyes, and put down the pen again.

The old man glanced at what she had written, and did not interject again.

Rest in peace fathers.

The simple four words once again expressed Chu Luoyi's wish, at first she wanted Ouyang Qiancheng and Qingxue to live better than to die, and wanted those people to get retribution.

But as the old man said, these hatreds and evil thoughts will not come true after all.

Therefore, she avenges her revenge herself, but she only hopes that the more than 300 people can rest in peace.

The ribbons full of trees fluttered in the wind, and Beiliuhai and Chu Luoyi stood under the Bodhi tree with their heads up, staring quietly.

At this moment, a large field of fireworks exploded above the sky on the river bank in the distance.

"Look! It's fireworks.. It's fireworks..."The strolling pedestrians ran to the riverbank to look at the gorgeous fireworks.

The gorgeous hibiscus peonies bloomed in the air, enchanting and abnormal, flashing with brilliance, but fleeting.

Chu Luoyi quietly looked at the fireworks in the sky, and streamers slipped from the sky.

Beiliuhai gently grabbed Chu Luoyi's shoulder: "Your wish will come true." ”

Chu Luoyi didn't move, nor did she speak, because she also believed that her wishes would come true.

The old man on the side packed up his things, knocked on the somewhat broken wooden fish, and said softly: "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform." Buddha nature is always pure, where there is dust! The heart is a Bodhi tree, and it is a mirror platform. ”

"The mirror is pure, where is the dust! Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform. There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust! Bodhi only seeks from the heart, why bother to seek the mystery from the outside? I heard that according to this practice, the West is only for now! ”

Chu Luoyi came back to his senses, looked at the kind old man who was gradually disappearing, and repeated softly: "Bodhi only seeks from the heart, why bother to seek the mystery from the outside?" I heard that according to this practice, the West is only at the moment..."

Tong Beiliuhai stood under the Bodhi tree for a long time, Beiliuhai felt that the night was getting colder and colder, and said: "It's not early, go back and rest, you have to hurry tomorrow." ”

Chu Luoyi nodded and walked back with Beiliuhai.

Maybe this town is close to the border, or because it is a festival today, even if the night is dark, the town is still lively, there is no sense of silence, but only a sense of bright lights.

I didn't go far before I saw a place that was extremely lively, and there was a lot of noise inside.

Chu Luoyi looked up and saw that a small grandstand had been erected on one side of the street, with a red carpet on it, and the vendors were all wearing thick jackets and beating gongs and drums.

"Our brothers came from afar, I heard that there is a good saying, called the person who comes is a guest, but this time we are not a guest, we just want to make a deal with you, friends, if you are interested, come and take a look...."

A set of openings that are not very popular, with the sound of gongs and drums, still attracted many people to stop.

"Look, isn't this flower beautiful!" The man took out a pot of blooming yellow peonies, embedded with white edges, which is a rare variety, especially in full bloom in this winter, which is a little rare.

"Beauty!!" The crowd echoed the voices, and the atmosphere was good.

"Hanami, isn't it? But today we don't sell flowers, we want to sell things that are more beautiful than flowers! ”

'Bang! With a bang, the gongs and drums sounded again, and six or seven well-dressed girls were pushed onto the stage.

Everyone couldn't help but talk for a while, looking at the pink faces and bewitching figures, and the atmosphere was pushed to a climax again for a while.

Chu Luoyi's gaze swept to the women, the seven women were wearing very little in the early winter, some even had a lot of bare skin, and these women's hands were tied behind their backs.

Chu Luo's clothes and eyes were cold, this is to sell people.

swept these women again, only to find that these women were basically not from Beiyan, most of them were women from other countries.

Because of regional differences, there will be some slight differences in the appearance of women in various places, forming beauties from different countries.

For example, the women of Tanglin are taller and slender, with a high nose bridge and deep eye sockets.

Although the women of Xiliang can ride and shoot well, most of them are still petite, and most of their eyes are lighter brown.

And so on, so even though they are all beauties, the styles are very different, and because of this, the squires are tired of the women of Beiyan, and they always can't help but want to try it.

And these men seem to be here to auction off the women they have captured from various countries.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the men to start selling, pushing the women out one by one, and then shouting a reserve price.

Many people were aroused, after all, they saw such a woman with a very different style once.

And because the selection of concubines is approaching, many people also have the idea of attacking beauties, and for a while, the prices of several women are extremely high.

Chu Luoyi's gaze fell on one of the women, the woman was petite, her skin was snow-white, her eyes were slightly light brown, her eyes were full of agility, and she seemed to have a sense of familiarity.

Chu Luoyi frowned and looked at the woman in front of him, only feeling a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Beiliuhai's brows also frowned, and his eyes were also looking at the petite woman, and he unconsciously remembered something in his mind.

Sensing his reaction, Chu Luoyi turned his head and said, "But where have you seen it?" ”

Beiliuhai was silent for a while and said, "It should be Xiliang's little princess, Han Ruoxi." ”

Chu Luoyi was also puzzled: "How could the little princess of Xiliang appear here?" ”

Beiliuhai couldn't answer for a while, this is the border between Beiyan and Tanglin, how could the princess of Xiliang appear here? And it also fell into the hands of human traffickers.

While the two were thinking, the first few women had already sold for a good price.

After Han Ruoxi was pushed out, people soon began to ask for the price, because of the petite and delicate figure and exquisite appearance, there were far more people asking for the price than others for a while.

"Two thousand taels!" One of them shouted a high price, and the men on the high platform were overjoyed in their eyes, as if they had seen a large amount of silver fall into their pockets.

Han Ruoxi pursed her mouth, she was a dignified princess of Xiliang, and she was worth two thousand taels!

Chu Luoyi was not too surprised by this price, after all, this is a border area where fish and dragons are mixed.

Just when everyone thought that the deal was about to be made, a voice as clear as water came: "Five thousand taels." ”

Chu Luoyi and Beiliuhai frowned at the same time, and looked in the direction from which the voice came, only to see a snow-white figure left behind.

Chu Luoyi pushed away the person in front of him and stepped forward, wanting to see the man more clearly, but the man disappeared in the crowd in an instant, and in a hurry, Chu Luoyi only saw that he was wearing a white hat on his head, and he couldn't see his appearance.
