Chapter 37: Farewell I
"Master hopes that I can be like the North Star, quietly waiting for this continent. Lu Beichen replied, and the past in his mind once emerged.
"A lot of the way you have to walk on your own. I've worked hard for so many years, and the chill on you still lingers. Perhaps, there are some problems that can only be solved by yourself. After coming down the mountain, Master will not be able to protect you, may God bless you to meet noble people and truly solve your problems. ”
"Master's care over the years, Beichen dare not forget. Lu Beichen said seriously, with an undoubted affirmation in his eyes, "When Beichen returns, I will not disappoint Master." ”
After hearing this, Qiu Shan touched his beard and smiled, "Although you don't know martial arts, you have been very smart since you were a child, and I believe that you can do it." ”
"I'm sure I'll get it there. Lu Beichen couldn't help but have some very special emotions in his heart, a kind of touched by trust, or an excitement of being re-pinned with high hopes?
"Remember, after you go down, no matter what happens, you can only go forward. When you meet anyone, you can't talk about these things easily. ”
"Hmm. Lu Beichen replied softly, clinging to the letter, his mood was a little complicated.
......
......
The night before leaving, the stars were shining and the moon was dim.
It's early summer, there's no spring cold, and it's still a few days away from the heat, and the temperature on the mountain is particularly cool. Lu Beichen was covered with a thin sheet, accompanied by a hint of evening breeze, and slowly closed his eyes. Not far from him was the Qiankun mirror with thousands of books, and he had to make sure that the mirror was there every night before going to bed, which was his habit for many years.
In his light sleep, he felt himself float uncontrollably and become much lighter. Over time, it was as if he had gone to another world. There is something about this world that feels nihilistic, very unreal, but it really exists.
In this world, there is hardly a trace of breath, but the surrounding scenery is intoxicating. Lu Beichen came here floating and felt incredible.
It's incredible, not just because of the view, but also because of the familiarity.
"How can there be such a blue sea?"
"How can there be such a light river?"
"How can there be such a big wheel?"
Just like the dream he had when he was in college, he came to a very beautiful continent, there was still a huge wheel on the continent, there was still an endless galaxy in the sky, and the mysterious and quiet ocean around him.
In this world, it is very peaceful. When this tranquility is intoxicating, it is also a feeling of suffocation.
Suddenly, gently he seemed to be blown up by the wind. There was a lot of white light around him, like fireworks that children often set off, and all the light gathered around him, and then sent him to a dark place.
There was no light, no sea, no stars and no ships, and he seemed to begin to hear a hint of wind.
I woke up from a dream.
"It turned out to be a dream again...... Lu Beichen stretched his eyelids with difficulty, and pulled out of the boundless world.
He got up slowly, looked at the shadows of the trees that were swaying left and right by the breeze outside the window, and felt a little apprehensive in his heart, "Why is this dream again?"
Since he was eight years old, he has been having similar dreams. The scene in the dream is familiar and unfamiliar, but every time I wake up, I can't remember what happened, and the strange feeling cannot be expressed in words.
The first time he had such a dream was the night he went to the academy. He forgot exactly who he had seen in his dream, and the only thing he remembered was that he was in the boundless and endless sea, with a group of generals, fiercely tearing apart another group of people.
Then, just like myself in my dream today, I stood in the endless plain and saw the river in the sky where all the stars were gathered, and the people running around on the huge ship that was spinning rapidly.
He clearly remembered these scenes, and the feeling of being dizzy when he watched it. Other than that, I don't have any memory of what happened in the dream. Every time I wake up, I only feel unbelievable, a long dream, like a lifetime.
Maybe it's because he thinks about it day and night, and every teenager has a heroic dream of fighting bravely in his heart, or maybe his life has been very peaceful, and the calm is a little too much, so God wants him to experience a thrill in his dream.
No matter how messy his thoughts were, Lu Beichen calmed down and continued to lie down, because he had to say goodbye to his friends tomorrow and keep going down the mountain for many days, so he had to sleep well.
He lay on the bed, rubbed his eyes, looked at the stars outside the window, and couldn't help but sigh that the dream he had shouted on that lawn back then could finally come true tomorrow, and he finally went down the mountain. The starry sky that listened to his heart will definitely protect him all the way.
......
......
Thoughts drifted, accompanied by starlight, and drowsiness grew.
When the starlight faded, the morning light came to the world early, as if to welcome something.
Until noon, the blue sky was hung with a fireball-like sun.
Lu Beichen was slowly packing up his clothes in his room, remembering that when he went up the mountain to study seven years ago, he was also quietly packing up his things like today.
That was also the first time he experienced the emotion of parting.
No one knew that he was lying in bed that day, looking at the stars in the sky, thinking that he would never see such a starry sky again, and that he was crying when he looked at the wind-blown tree outside the window. No one knew that in the heart of that eight-year-old child, there were many, many things to think about the future.
However, it was not really a parting. The bottom of the mountain is only a dozen miles away from the mountain, and it is only a matter of pitching to return to the bottom of the mountain.
But now it is a long way to go to the Holy Capital, will the mountains outside the mountains be as beautiful as the Sun Moon Mountain, and will the people outside the people be as sincere and friendly as the friends of the academy?
Now that I think about it, what was it to leave Master that time? This time it was a real departure from home.
He looked at the Qiankun mirror on the table and picked it up.
I couldn't help but laugh when I recalled the day I accidentally entered the world in the mirror and later reported to the academy in embarrassment. Later, Gu Yin fought for this mirror, but there was another accident, but it was also because of that accident that he became familiar with Senior Brother Qiu Li, Xiao Yan, and Gu Yin.
Later, he wanted to give the mirror to the girl who was crying for her father, but he didn't. But because of this, the small book house in the mirror has become the most precious memory of his childhood.
Thinking about it this way, this mirror has brought him a lot of special memories, so it is natural to bring it.
On the handle of the mirror, a pendant hangs. It was the little hourglass left by the girl who cried for her father seven years ago when she left. For so many years, he has been waiting for the girl who disappeared in a blink of an eye, and even wants to go down the mountain, part of the reason is to find this girl.
These two things may be worthless, but they are full of childhood memories.
"If we meet again, will we still know each other? Lu Beichen whispered to the little hourglass.
He didn't know the girl's name, but he vaguely heard the middle-aged man call Quan'er, and he remembered it.
In fact, he didn't know if the girl still remembered herself, whether she still remembered the name "Little Beichen".
He never knew what the pendant was, what it did, and didn't tell anyone about the existence of the item. Maybe it was because of the incident of tossing the Qiankun Mirror in the academy back then, which made him worry about the recurrence of the old things.
And he had a gut feeling that it should be important to the girl, so he couldn't let people know.
But if it was important, why didn't the girl go up the hill to look for it? didn't she know she had fallen? Or was it because it was just an innocuous thing, just a little too much to think about.
Lu Beichen thought about many reasons, but he didn't come up with a reason, because there is a word in the world called providence, who knows how providence will make people and create things?
But he kept the pendant on his most important mirror, so that one day when he saw the girl, he could hand it over to her.
In addition, the white light that permeated the pendant always reminded him of the warmth transmitted from his little hand that day, and the fresh breath mixed with the wind.
He held them in his hands as if he were holding some treasure, and gently placed them in a bag.
The sun was already hanging high, and his clothes were almost gone, and Master's letter, hourglass pendant, and Qiankun mirror were all placed in the baggage without leaking.
