Chapter 249: Impermanence (4)
It's a pity.
Hongluan looked at the girl with a gentle smile in the picture, and said in her heart.
At first glance, she could see that this girl was seriously sick.
The appearance of an early death.
But one thing that made her feel more pity was that there was no red thread on her body, and there was no trace of any red thread entanglement.
In fact, the red line does not only represent marriage.
It was true in the past, there were few people, and they got married early, and there were many marriages.
But then something similar to the Renaissance and the scientific and technological revolution happened in the world, the population surged, and the gods in the sky couldn't be busy.
In fact, the Emperor of Heaven has long been unaccustomed to seeing the old moon.
Hongluan felt that the Emperor of Heaven was purely because he was too busy to open the pot, and he couldn't get used to seeing Ah Yue's courtiers being idle, so he assigned other things to him.
But some of the older immortals said no.
They expressed it very vaguely, probably meaning that the Emperor of Heaven and Yue Lao had already had a contradiction, but whenever Hongluan asked deeply, they were reluctant to say more.
It is said that Ah Yue was once a famous immortal in the Nine Heavens, but later he violated the rules of heaven and was relegated from an immortal to the desolate Moon Palace to become a small moon elder, staying for tens of thousands of years.
Probably because of this, he has been too lonely for too long, so he has turned her into such an unknown little fairy grass as a companion.
Anyway, since then, the red thread of the old moon is not only as simple and easy as connecting marriage, but also connects some other fates according to the depth and length of the red thread.
Or love, or friendship, or family affection.
Some are just nodding friends, and some are just shallow in love.
But there is no red thread on the woman in the picture. Whether it's family, friendship, or love.
It's as if a lonely person came into this world alone, and then left alone without anyone noticing.
But how can there be people in the world who are completely disconnected from the world?
It's like a person who has been given up by God.
It's too pitiful.
There was no red line on this girl, it should have been a flashing picture, Hongluan looked at it and felt curious, and deliberately asked Ah Yue to stop the picture.
But soon she found out that Ah Yue seemed to be curious about the girls in the picture.
To be more precise, the kind of gaze that Hongluan had never seen in thousands of years in Ah Yue's eyes was by no means just curiosity.
In fact, this kind of look is not unfamiliar to Hongluan.
She has seen it in the eyes of the protagonists of many stories.
Curious, surprised, confused, struggling, nostalgic, rejoicing.
How can one person's eyes hold so many mixed emotions?
It all blended together, and finally became a deep and heavy mood, which slowly flowed into her heart in the soft halo of moonlight.
Hongluan felt that the tens of thousands of years between herself and Ah Yue might be more far-reaching and long-lasting than she imagined.
The last red thread didn't pull a few more, Ah Yue and Hongluan stood side by side at the highest point of the Moon Palace, looking at the lights in the world under the moon, which was many times brighter than the faint halo on the Moon Palace.
Hongluan's heart was darker than the moonlight.
"I saw you just now see that girl, and you seem to be a little different from her. ”
Ah Yue didn't deny it, only rubbed her eyebrows and hummed softly.
After a while, Ah Yue said again: "When I see her face, I always feel a little familiar. ”
Hongluan panicked for no reason.
Her mind was blank at the moment, and she said with some difficulty, "Heaven has a saying, immortals can't fall in love......"
Ah Yue smiled dumbly and patted her head, "You think too much." ”
Hongluan was silent, she also hoped that she was thinking too much.
She didn't dodge Ah Yue's action of touching her hair this time, but Ah Yue's hand, when she just touched the top of Hongluan's hair, she took it away as if she wanted to come to something.
In the past few days, Hongluan has been looking through the previous Tiangong chronicles in the Tiangong Classics Library, but he can't find the information he wants.
Most of the books of the immortals and past events related to the Heavenly Palace are openly placed in the classic library*** The immortals in the Heavenly Palace check by themselves, but there are also some things that are forbidden by the Emperor of Heaven and are not allowed to preach in the Heavenly Palace, and they cannot be found in the classic library.
Hongluan now finally understood why those older immortals were so secretive about Ah Yue's past.
Probably, he really, once had something unforgettable?
Hongluan finally gave up the idea of continuing to look for answers in the classic library, went back to the Moon Palace by himself, and secretly watched the life of that girl in the world.
The girl's life is very monotonous, she stays in the hospital all the time, except for a fixed time of injections and medicines for physical examinations, she is probably outside with a simple sketch paper to draw and sketch.
She painted a lot of things, flowers, insects, birds and beasts. But she never seemed to have drawn people.
Hongluan also gradually learned from her observation that in fact, girls have family and friends, and those family and friends also like her.
But as for why there is no red thread on her, this is what Hongluan doesn't know.
As for whether Ah Yue knows, Hongluan doesn't know, she hasn't seen him for a long time.
Since the two of them saw this girl that day, Ah Yue left the Moon Palace alone.
Where it went, Hongluan didn't know.
He never told her what was going on with him, where he was going, and when he was back.
But in fact, he rarely goes out.
At least in the thousands of years that the two have been together, she has only seen him go out three times.
Soon, Hongluan noticed that an eighteen-year-old boy appeared in the picture, wearing a clean and refreshing white shirt and jeans, and standing behind the girl with gentle eyes.
He also held a picture book in his hand and a pencil in his hand, quietly tracing something on the drawing paper, his eyes wandering between the drawing paper and the girl.
Hongluan used his divine sense to inspect the picture book in the boy's hand, and found that on the thick picture book, every page was painted with the girl in his eyes.
The strokes are clear and profound, just like his attentive eyes.
Hongluan's heart was hot, and he summoned out the marriage book and found the page of the boy.
I looked at it and was surprised.
Although there are many red threads entangled in the boy's body, only the marriage line is missing, and every life he can show in the marriage book is a childhood sweetheart with the girl.
It's just that every life after the girl dies of illness, she is lonely for life.
As for the girl's marriage, she didn't know, and it wasn't in the marriage book.
