Next Chapter

Hengdian.

"Have you really decided to go back to your rural hometown?"

Several extras looked at a young extras in amazement.

"Well, it's decided." Li Xianyu nodded slightly.

"However, you are still so young, and you still have enough time to strive to become a real actor! Now when I go back, my dream of being an actor and becoming a star will not come true. ”

Several people felt a little pity.

Being young is the time to struggle. As long as you work hard, you may have the opportunity to become a real actor in a few years.

And then if there are some more opportunities, it is not impossible to become a star actor.

Now that he is back in his hometown in the countryside, the road to stardom will be cut off.

Maybe it's because young people are afraid of hardship.

But isn't it hard to go back to your rural hometown to farm?

Moreover, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make any progress in this life.

"Is it your dream to be an actor and become a star?" Li Xianyu sighed lightly.

In his previous life, he did have such a dream.

Dream of becoming a big star.

So at the age of twenty-three, he was born as a non-actor and came to Hengdian alone.

The dream started as an extra, slowly became a real actor, and then became a star actor.

However, the years were merciless, and until he was nearly forty years old, he was always just an extra.

The wife is not married, the child is not born, and he is only in a panic for half his life.

He regretted it.

regrets that he shouldn't have pursued that ethereal dream of stardom.

If he could do it all over again, he would definitely not come to Hengdian again.

Maybe it's God's favor that he really has a chance to do it all over again.

He was born again.

Reborn back to the twenty-three-year-old now, just three months after coming to Hengdian.

He was dazed, shocked, incredulous, and very excited.

Life can really be repeated.

In this life, he will no longer waste his years for the ethereal dream of stardom.

star, he no longer pursues.

Although he wants to become a star in this life, it may not be a luxury.

Because at the same time as he was reborn, the background of the world also changed.

This is no longer the Earth, but a parallel world similar to the Earth.

In the past life, from ancient times to the present, there are no various types of entertainment products in this world.

At the same time, the system boots. With the assistance of the system, it should not be difficult for him to become a star in this world.

However, he didn't want to anymore.

He has no feelings for celebrities.

He just wants to return to his hometown in the countryside, guard one acre and three points of land, grow some vegetables, and accompany his parents.

In his spare time, catch fish and shrimp, tease cats and dogs, and go to the mountains to find some wild mushrooms.

Find another girl in the village, tie the knot, and have a baby.

Maybe you can have two, or three.

This is the life he wants in this life.

So, he decided to go back to his hometown in the countryside now.

Therefore, he expressed to several extras who had a good relationship that he was ready to go back to his hometown in the countryside.

Several people persuaded Li Xianyu not to give up. He said that as long as he worked hard, his dreams would eventually come true.

But Li Xianyu shook his head lightly, and then sent his blessings with a smile, "I hope you can all become real actors and big stars." ”

Seeing that Li Xianyu had made up his mind, several people could only bless, "I hope you can live happily in your rural hometown." ”

"It should be."

"In the future, when I have time, I will come to Hengdian to play."

"Okay, this can be there. Hopefully, you'll all be full-fledged actors by then. ”

"Hahaha! This can also be had. ”

“……”

Greet each other and wave goodbye.

……

However, Li Xianyu did not return to his hometown immediately, but came to West Lake.

West Lake is not far from Hengdian.

And Li Xianyu's hometown is 2,000 kilometers away, and he may not come here again in the future.

Therefore, Li Xianyu wanted to come to West Lake again to have a look before going home.

In his previous life, in the more than ten years of Hengdian, Li Xianyu came to West Lake many times.

The rippling surface of the lake here can calm his tired heart.

Therefore, he has a special affection for West Lake.

Although the world background has changed somewhat, West Lake is still there.

So, here he comes.

Before leaving, he wanted to take another look at his "old friend".

The West Lake of this world is no different from the West Lake of the previous life.

All of them are surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the lake is divided into several water surfaces by the white causeway, the Su causeway, the Yanggong causeway, and the Zhaogong causeway.

However, there are some differences in some respects.

For example, broken bridges.

The Broken Bridge in the previous life is undoubtedly one of the most famous attractions in the entire West Lake.

The reason for this is in addition to the beautiful saying that "broken bridges and remnants of snow".

What's more, the folklore "The Legend of the White Snake" adds endless romanticism to the broken bridge.

And there is no legend of the White Snake in this world.

Therefore, the fame of the broken bridge in this world is far from being compared with the previous life.

Another example is Leifeng Tower.

For the same reason, because there is no legend of the White Snake, the fame of Leifeng Pagoda in this world is far from being comparable to the previous life.

Standing on the broken bridge, looking at the Leifeng Pagoda on the sunset mountain on the opposite bank, Li Xianyu couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.

Without the legend of "The Legend of the White Snake", the West Lake is incomplete.

If you can, can you bring the legend of "The Legend of the White Snake" over to make up for your regrets?

Li Xianyu was thinking about this problem.

"I'm sorry, this little brother, can I trouble you to step aside a little? I wanted to take a picture here. A voice came into Li Xianyu's ears.

Li Xianyu turned his head and saw that the person who spoke was a young girl.

She looks very beautiful, and her figure is also very good, quite tall, and her net height is estimated to be above 170.

The girl saw Li Xianyu looking at her and smiled politely.

It's just as nice to laugh at.

The girl wants to take a photo here, and the location where Li Xianyu is standing is the best place to take pictures.

Li Xianyu nodded, "Of course you can." ”

Then he stood a little to the side.

"Thank you!"

After thanking the girl, she stood where Li Xianyu had just been, and then motioned to her companion to take a picture of her.

The companion is also a sister. She looks good, but it's a little worse than her.

The West Lake in this world is also a famous scenic spot in the country, so there are also many tourists.

Soon, the girl finished filming. Then he thanked Li Xianyu again, "I'm done shooting, thank you." ”

Li Xianyu smiled: "You're welcome." ”

At this time, a group of tourists walked up from the end of the broken bridge.

After looking around on the broken bridge for a while, one of them said, "This broken bridge doesn't seem to be anything special." ”

"Maybe it's spring. If you come in winter, you may be able to see the phenomenon of 'broken bridges and remnants of snow'. That should still be beautiful. Another companion said.

"Really? Possibly. After all, "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow" is one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, and it can't be wasted. ”

"It's a pity it's not winter."

A group of people were talking about the broken bridge. There is some regret in the words.

They should probably come in winter.

At that time, you may be able to see even more beautiful broken bridges.

"In fact, when it comes to broken bridges, in addition to the phenomenon of 'broken bridges and remnant snow', we can also learn about a historical story about broken bridges." An old man not far away said.

The old man was about sixty years old, in good spirits, and his face was full of red light.

Obviously, the old man heard the conversation of the group of tourists about the broken bridge, and then couldn't help but want to tell a historical story about the broken bridge.

"Is there a historical story about the broken bridge?" A group of tourists walked up to the old man with some curiosity.

Li Xianyu was also a little curious, I don't know what kind of historical story the old man wants to tell?

So, he also walked over.

Then I saw the two girls who had just taken a picture and also walked over.

The two girls were equally curious.

Li Xianyu smiled at the two girls. The two girls were also smiling.

Not only Li Xianyu and the two girls, but all the tourists on the broken bridge surrounded them.

Everyone is very interested in the historical story about the broken bridge.

The old man was very happy to see so many people gathered around.

He smiled and said, "This broken bridge has a history of at least a thousand years. Naturally, there is a historical story. ”

"More than a thousand years old?" Everyone around was a little surprised.

Is this broken bridge so old?

That's amazing!

The old man continued: "The specific age of the construction of this broken bridge is difficult to verify. What is certain, however, was that it already existed during the Tang Dynasty. ”

I see.

That's at least a thousand years old.

Everyone instantly felt that the broken bridge had become unusual.

There is a sense of historical weight.

The old man continued: "The Broken Bridge has had many names in history. And the most recent one is called Duanjiaqiao, also known as Duanqiao. The surname is 'Duan', not what we now call 'broken'. ”

"Huh?" Everyone listened.

The old man was even more pleased to see that everyone was listening carefully, and continued: "A long time ago, there was no such bridge here. There is only a rudimentary wooden bridge.

There is a simple hut next to the bridge, where a couple surnamed Duan live.

The two are kind-hearted and diligent.

The husband fishes in the lake for a living, and the wife sets up a wine stall in front of the house to sell some home-brewed local wine.

However, due to the poor taste of alcohol, customers rarely come to the door, and business is light.

One day, at sunset, a white-haired old man in ragged clothes came.

The old man was penniless, but he wanted to stay overnight.

The couple warmly entertained the old man.

Early the next morning, when the old man was leaving, in order to thank the husband and wife for their warm stay, they gave the couple three red wine medicines.

It is said that good wine can be made with this wine.

The husband and wife really made good wine with wine medicine.

Since then, customers have been overflowing.

The life of the husband and wife is getting better and better.

Three years later, the white-haired old man came again.

The husband and wife were very happy to see their benefactor come again, and hoped that the old man would stay for a long time.

But the old man had to say goodbye the next day.

When the husband and wife saw that they couldn't keep the old man, they took out the silver taels they had earned over the years and wanted to give them to the old man. To thank the old man for his kindness in giving wine and medicine back then.

But the old man said that the silver taels were useless to him, and asked the husband and wife to use the silver taels where they needed it most.

After that, the old man stepped on the wooden bridge and left.

However, the wooden bridge fell into disrepair, and as soon as the old man stepped on it, he fell into the lake because he stepped on the bridge deck.

The husband and wife were shocked and rushed to the rescue.

But he saw the old man standing on the surface of the lake, smiling and waving to them, and then drifted away.

Only then did the couple know that the old man was not a mortal.

At the same time, I also understood what the old man meant by what he just said?

The old man wanted them to build a bridge that wouldn't let people fall into the lake.

So, the husband and wife paid for the demolition of the original wooden bridge. A stone arch bridge was rebuilt.

In order to thank the Duan family and his wife for building the bridge, the villagers called the stone bridge Duanjia Bridge, also called Duan Bridge.

Later, over time, the 'Duan Bridge' slowly evolved into what we now call the 'Broken Bridge'. ”

After listening to the old man, everyone was very emotional.

It turns out that there is such a historical story about the broken bridge.

With this historical story, the broken bridge instantly has a sense of history.

Looking at the broken bridge now, the feeling is different.

The previous group of tourists were so emotional, and at the same time expressed their gratitude to the old man.

The old man smiled heartily and said, "This is just a legendary story. There are other theories about the origin of the name 'Broken Bridge'. However, it is always good that we can learn about such a legend. ”

Everyone nodded. They were glad they could hear such a legend today.

Li Xianyu was also nodding.

The legend and story told by the old man also existed in his previous life.

However, compared with the legend of "The Legend of the White Snake", this legend is too far away from fame.

So much so that many people have not heard of it.

By the way, why not take this opportunity to tell a story about "The Legend of the White Snake"?

The story is too long to finish, so let's talk about it for the time being.

For the "old friend" of West Lake, Li Xianyu hopes that it will also have a legend about the White Lady in this world.

This is the only thing he can do for his "old friend".
