Chapter 198: Skirts
Ye Duhong thought that he would be able to reach the market after walking for a while, but he walked for a long time, but he didn't see a single person. Ye Duhong thought in his heart, who am I, where am I from, where am I going, the more he thinks about it, the more confused he becomes, so he walks at will.
Looking around, there was no one, the wilderness was silent, and the loneliness of Ye Duhong rose from the bottom of his heart, he lost his parents very early, and in this lonely place, he couldn't help but shed tears.
It turns out that in this world, no one cares for themselves except themselves, and even if they do, they may do things harmful to themselves because of all kinds of mistakes, which really makes people feel helpless. Ye Duhong strode forward, and in front of him to the right, a brightly colored dress appeared. If you look closely, it turns out to be a woman's skirt. Ye Duhong thought to himself, in this era of war, there are also women who have fled here. I didn't feel surprised, and I continued to move forward.
When Ye Duhong walked more than ten meters away, he felt that something was wrong, because when he walked, something was following him. Ye Duhong's heart was furious, this was the first time he had encountered such a strange situation. Ye Duhong took a few steps forward, turned back suddenly, and saw that the bright skirt had already followed him a short distance. Although this dress looks light, it is not blown here by the wind, it must not be. Wanting to test his reasoning, Ye Duhong walked forward again, and this time, the skirt didn't follow him. Ye Duhong walked forward with confidence.
But something even stranger happened, when Ye Duhong turned a corner, the bright skirt suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, it turned out that the skirt was walking faster than himself. Ye Duhong's heart began to feel uneasy. When he went down to Death Valley, Ye Duhong met the man-eating red flower, and he was worried that the dress was a man-eating dress. At that time, even if he encountered a man-eating monster, Ye Duhong could deal with it lightly. However, at this time, Ye Duhong had no skills, and he had no other choice but to escape.
Ye Duhong bypassed her skirt and started running, and Ye Duhong ran while looking back. The bright dress. They even jumped up and ran after him. Ye Duhong was completely scared now, and he ran forward desperately.
When she came to a river, Ye Duhong wanted to get rid of the bright skirt, so she had to jump into the river. But the clothes had just been washed. He didn't want to get wet anymore. So he stripped naked, laid his clothes on the grass, and threw himself into the river. The night in the water shows its head. I saw that the bright skirt actually ran over and landed on his clothes.
Ye Duhong screamed, thinking badly, now I have to stay in the water, the skirt is actually nestled with my clothes, how can I go over and get my clothes. Ye Duhong meditated naked in the water, but couldn't come up with a trick.
Anyway, now the skirt is still on the shore, and it has not violated Ye Duhong, Ye Duhong is safe at this time, so he will hide in the water first, and then go ashore after the skirt leaves.
Just when Ye Duhong was anxiously waiting, a crystal round stone appeared on the shore, that stone used to belong to Ye Duhong, that is, the flying stone that traveled thousands of miles a day, since Ye Duhong jumped into the Black Sea, he lost everything, including the stone, at this time the stone appeared on the shore, Ye Duhong was excited.
Ye Duhong threw himself towards the shore, and soon, he approached the shore. When I went ashore, I went to get the stone, but as soon as the stone flashed, Ye Duhong threw his hands into the air, and Ye Duhong said to the stone, you stone, you are still disobedient, and you deliberately trick me. Ye Duhong ran towards the stone, and the stone moved forward with ups and downs in mid-air, and Ye Duhong chased after the stone. And the bright skirt also jumped up and chased Ye Duhong. Ye Duhong chased a few steps, and when he saw that the stone was moving fast, he intended to go back and get dressed, but the bright red dress was still chasing him, Ye Duhong was really startled, and he ran into the distance, on the one hand, to avoid the skirt, and on the other hand, to chase the stone that belonged to him.
The stone flew along the bank of the river, Ye Duhong ran all the way naked, the stone approached a small bridge, and fell into the water with a thud, there were many stones in the water, and the flying stone was mixed with many stones, like a grain of sand falling in the sand, Ye Duhong could not find it, he had to sigh and sigh.
There were three or four women on the bridge admiring the river, and when they saw that Ye Duhong was not wearing clothes, they all laughed, and Ye Duhong was laughed at by the girls, and quickly ran away. Ye Duhong ran out of the distance, looked back, the skirt jumped on the bridge, was found by the women, and one woman picked up the skirt. The woman said, where did the skirt come from, so bright, so good-looking, fell in this wilderness, and it was ruined in vain.
Ye Duhong was about to say that the dress was very weird, maybe it was changed by the devil. But he saw a person in the open space not far from the bridge, he was sitting cross-legged under the tree, and that person recognized it at a glance. He is the homeless man who told him stories as a child. Ye Duhong hurriedly ran over and greeted the homeless.
The homeless man first calmed down, then slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw that it was night alone, he showed a surprised expression, but he still sat cross-legged on the ground. Ye Duhong said that he liked to listen to his stories, and the homeless man briefly described the story of the underwater world next to the small mountain peak to Ye Duhong, and Ye Duhong believed it very much.
Then, the homeless man said that in this world, storytellers cannot do without two things, one is tragedy and the other is comedy. There is a saying that happiness begets sorrow, and it can be seen that even joyful things can turn into tragedy when they reach the extreme. Then there are too many tragedies in the world to count, and this in itself is a great tragedy. I've told a lot of stories, I've told comedies, I've told tragedies, I've told all the stories, and if there are storytellers in the world in the future, the stories told will inevitably be my repetitions, at most they will be the same, there will be no inconsistencies, the story is like that, I've finished telling the story, I'm going to die.
After the homeless man said a series of things he wanted to say, he bit his tongue hard, and he really died.
Ye Duhong screamed, but he couldn't save the life of the homeless, and the homeless man bit his tongue and committed suicide. Ye Duhong sighed, he was born, told the story, and after telling the story, he died. Ye Duhong picked up the corpse of the homeless man, and his heart was sad and could not help himself, so he dug a pit under the tree where the homeless man died, and buried the homeless man simply, and the homeless's body was covered with dead branches and leaves, just like his complicated life. Ye Duhong also erected a stele on the grave, which was engraved: "Tomb of the Tramp".
Ye Duhong then remembered that all this time, he had never asked the name of the homeless man, but the homeless man knew his name.
Ye Duhong walked across the bridge naked, he slowly walked past several women, Ye Duhong was not shy, just walked over so calmly. Several women were obsessed with the bright red dress, laughing and talking about the trivial things of life, while Ye Duhong shed two lines of hot tears because of sadness. (To be continued......)
