Chapter 12: A Good Death (2)

The simple tune was hearty and bright, like her laughter, which kept echoing in his ears, gradually turning into an unknown and ignorant feeling, slowly seeping into his heart.

Because it is unknown, it is sought.

Because there is something to seek, so there is something to think.

He thought that he might finally find something to keep him on his mind besides the "priorities."

Perhaps, there will always be a person in this world, who makes you willing and helpless, and makes your ancient well stained with earthly fireworks.

Shanshi doesn't think that way - there will always be someone in everyone's life, who will occupy most or even all of your life. She never thought that her person would come so quickly, in fact, he came so suddenly that she was a little caught off guard.

The trip to Xiangze County was slowed down from three days to five days by the two of them, and they found an inn in the county, and the shopkeeper first saw the combination of the Taoist chief and the girl and felt novel, and looked back and forth between the two for a few rounds, and said with a smile: "Two ...... Is it a sharp point or a stay?"

Shang Shi glanced at the homeless, and saw that he had no opinion, so he said to the shopkeeper, "Two rooms." ”

When the two of them came to the inn, it was already about three o'clock, and it was too late to do anything, so Shang Shi directly asked people to bring the food to their respective rooms, and after using it, they planned to rest, but suddenly there was a situation in the middle of the night.

Shansh's room stood facing the street, and after she rested, about the beginning of the morning, there was a sudden sound of people walking in the window by the street, which was not small, and Shansh, who was woken up, didn't pay much attention to it, but heard the sound from the room next to her.

She put on her shoes and got out of bed, and when she saw that the door of the room was still closed, she knocked, "Dao Chief?"

screamed, there was no response for a long time, she listened carefully for a long time, and after confirming that there was no sound of breathing, she opened the door directly, and saw that there was indeed no one on the bed, and the window was wide open.

The temperature on the bed was still there, and she was slightly frightened, so after thinking about it, she jumped down from the direction of the window and chased in the direction of the people.

Xiangze County is not prosperous, at this time in the evening, the people who should have rested have already rested, and there are a few scattered figures on the street, most of them are looking in one direction at this moment, and they are also surprised by the few people who are riding horses quickly.

It wasn't too late for Shansh to catch up, and she could hear the sound of the horse's hooves galloping in the distance, so she could follow the sound as well, and it took a while to finally see the homeless man who was also chasing after her.

Before she could say anything, she saw that she had no return and looked back sharply in the direction of Shansh.

"Miss Shang?"

Shang Shi, who had been discovered, no longer hiding, came out of the shadows, wearing a water-red robe, as if there were faint fluctuations in the moonlight, she first glanced at the group of people who had completely disappeared, and then looked at the homeless who did not move but frowned slightly.

He didn't chase after him anymore, and she actually knew a little in her heart that no return should be avoiding her.

Whatever the reason, there were some things he couldn't let her know.

She pursed her lips and admitted very frankly: "I heard the voice, and when I saw that there was no one in the Taoist chief's room, I chased after me, but I didn't think that I did something bad with good intentions." ”

Wugui was silent for a moment, and suddenly remembered the piece of osmanthus cake in his baggage that had not been touched so far. At first, he was indeed suspicious and even suspicious of Shang Shi, who came to his side on his own initiative, but then he really forgot about the osmanthus cake - it must have been broken.

As for Fang Cai's movements, he also subconsciously stopped.

Some taboos and exclusions are almost instinctive decisions.

Shang Shi didn't seem to take this matter to heart, she smiled slightly, turned sideways and said, "Do you want to go back to the inn, I ......?"

Her voice stopped abruptly, and half a sentence was blocked in her throat. Wugui found himself intrigued by her abrupt stop, and saw Shansh point in the direction behind him, motioning for him to look.

Wugui followed the line of sight of her fingers—pale green specks of fluorescence in the moonlight, flickering and hiding in the dark green grass.

It is like a bright moon rising slowly from the end of the blue sea, like starlight born from the depths of the universe. The light moonlight seems to have a faint blue color in the green glow, which makes it even more colorful. And this brilliance blends with the light and clear moonlight, and the whole world becomes a foil.

It was the first time that Wugui had observed the moonlight and night like this, and he had never paid attention to the fireflies in the early autumn night. The beauty of such serenity, calmness and vitality, and the life as heavy as his once stagnant water, are two diametrically opposed existences.

He looked almost obsessively at the flickering few rays of light, all these years he lived in a trance, never thought about anything, animals do not think, they live only to live for the sake of living itself, to live openly, and then to die openly.

Short life, born to die, but they are not afraid of death.

He was also not afraid of death, but he could not penetrate life. Compared to these fireflies, his life is not insignificant.

But what does a long life get in exchange? a long time of emptiness, a long time of loneliness.

For more than 20 years, what is missing is not wisdom, but an opportunity to think, as long as he is given this opportunity, he will naturally be able to realize the Tao, and it is not difficult to penetrate the red dust.

Shang Shi looked at the fireflies as if he had no return, and then slowly closed his eyes. She walked closer to him, the faint scent of pancreas that had not dissipated after the night's bath, and the wisps of wisps wrapped around the tip of his nose.

There was still no superfluous expression on his face, but his handsome and indifferent face showed a bit of sacredness and solemnity in the moonlight.

Shang Shi unconsciously relaxed his breathing, and when he saw that his eyelashes trembled slightly, he called softly: "Dao Chief." ”

"The wind is blowing. She looked at the fluorescent light that was gone in the grass behind the two of them, and then her eyes swept over the thin layer of underwear, and said, "Dao Chief, go back to the inn." ”

She waited for a while, almost thinking that she would not answer, and lowered her eyes slightly, and suddenly heard him say softly: "I like you." ”

It's not a poor monk girl, it's me and you.
