Chapter 305: Seeing the Tomb Through the Four Seasons

Xu Yourong didn't understand, thinking that you are only in your twenties at most, not much older than yourself, why do you think about life so clearly? and...... How can you explain such a complex truth in such simple language, how did the Snow Mountain Sect teach you? How do you usually live?

"I've never met anyone as eloquent as you," she said. ”

Chen Changsheng was slightly stunned, he never thought that he would get such an evaluation. Since he was a child, he lived with Brother Yu Ren, he rarely spoke, most of the time he used hand gestures, and after coming to Kyoto, many people felt that he was a little taciturn, so when did he start to be able to say so much? Because he had to give classes to Luo Luo and Xuanyuan Po in the National Education Academy? Or was it because of the reason why Tang Thirty-six, the headache-inducing rich man, had been in his ears every day? Or ...... Something to do with the person to whom you are talking?

Looking at the beautiful face of the girl shining in the firelight, he was a little flustered for no reason, and then confused: "It's just nonsense." ”

Xu Yourong looked at him and asked seriously, "Why do you understand these truths?"

Chen Changsheng thought to himself, that's because you have lived in the grassland since you were a child, isolated from the world, and no one communicates with you.

Xu Yourong said: "You are really amazing if you see the responsibility and pressure and life so clearly, and you can't do it without day and night self-reflection." ”

Chen Changsheng said honestly: "I really didn't think about it that much, but stress is easy to bring negative feelings, and it's not good for health, so I don't like it." ”

……

……

After the wind and snow stopped, the two left the temple and continued on their way.

Suddenly, they walked into a rainstorm.

Before they could find a way to shelter from the rain, the rain stopped again.

The sun shone on the grassland again, and the rain evaporated instantly, and it was so hot and humid that it seemed to be summer.

Further on, the grass branches are slightly yellow, with hoarfrost, and the white grass road gradually melts into the grassland, looking at a bleak place, as if it has entered autumn.

This grassland in the Zhou Garden, really extremely mysterious, I don't know because of the distortion of space or the speed of time, the alternation of the four seasons is extremely fast, often giving people a feeling of being caught off guard, the most exaggerated time, in just more than ten miles away, they will come from spring to summer, and from autumn to winter.

Although the environment was harsh, it could be solved after all, and what comforted them the most, and at the same time made them even more nervous, was that they never encountered a monster beast again.

Running out of the summer covered by rain clouds, Chen Changsheng put Xu Yourong in a piece of splendid spring flowers, then took out a large piece of white pure snow prepared in winter and the utensils taken in the first two temples, began to melt snow and boil water, and at the same time began to pluck the autumn goose caught in the early morning and cut the abdomen, preparing to make a pot of stewed goose meat with water chestnuts.

The aroma of food gradually spread, but the grassland beside the road was silent, and there was no sound.

This strange dead silence once made them wary, but now they have learned to ignore it.

He is more worried about the problem of time, according to the scale on the water bottle, it has been more than twenty days since they entered the Zhou Garden, and each time the Zhou Garden is opened, it is only a hundred days, once the garden is closed, the rules of the small world inside will be reversed once, and there is no problem with the demon beasts living in it, but the cultivators who have the knowledge of the sea will be directly killed by the thunder.

He didn't know what the situation of the world outside the Zhou Garden was now, logically speaking, since the garden gate was closed, it would definitely attract the attention of people outside the garden, and the bishop Lord Merisa and the moon should react, but he didn't know if there was a way to open the garden gate, and the hundreds of human cultivators in the Zhou Garden had already gathered in one place, would they leave the garden and look for their companions who were alone in the mountains?

Of course, he didn't have much confidence in the latter.

"As we go deeper into the grassland, time becomes slower, and where we are now, a day is only equivalent to a quarter of time outside, so there is no need to worry about Zhou Yuan closing for the time being. "When Xu Yourong was awake these days, he had been using the natal astrolabe to deduce and calculate, and the slight difference between the two flowing water bottles and the speed of the sun that was about to set but refused to set at the edge of the grassland came up with a relatively accurate result.

When she said this, she was on Chen Changsheng's back, holding a water bottle, and only one hand could support his shoulder, so she was naturally lying on his back completely.

By now, the two of them have become a lot more familiar with each other, and they get along a lot more casually, and her movements of holding him are very natural, unlike at the beginning, even if she was so weak that she couldn't support it, she still held his shoulders with both hands, keeping her body at a slight distance from his back, which was very hard.

Chen Changsheng is no longer as cautious as he was at the beginning, and he is likely to hold her legs in the most comfortable posture, and no longer worry about whether it will be too much.

At the same time, her casualness also comforted him, and he could feel the soft girlish body, which added a lot of strength to him in the long journey that seemed to never end.

The touch coming from behind him was really soft, and he was embarrassed to imagine her body, but he naturally came to a conclusion, and sure enough, as rumored, the girl of the Xiuling clan was indeed very charming.

Thinking that the girl was now seriously injured and not healing, but he was thinking about these things, he felt a little ashamed, probably to resolve this kind of lover, he said: "In the future...... Is it okay to call you soft?"

It's still a classic example of the dumbest and worst of the kind. As soon as the words came out, he regretted it a little.

Along the way, he knew very well that she was a cold woman, quite dignified, and it was absolutely impossible for her to like this kind of teasing.

Of course Xu Yourong didn't like it, if it was usual, she would definitely be very angry, and then beat Chen Changsheng to the point that she couldn't recognize it.

But I don't know why, at this time her face was full of shame, but she didn't say anything or do anything.

……

……

In the spring flowers, summer rain, autumn fruits, winter snow, they walk through the four seasons, continue to move forward, occasionally rest, fight monsters and cook, breathe and calm the mind, and then they can always find an old temple. They became more and more familiar, and even when they were not talking, they no longer felt embarrassed when they looked at each other quietly. Sometimes, he would even make a grimace to make her weak laugh.

Of course, when they were resting and waiting for the meat to be cooked, they would still talk often, and it was often Xu Yourong who took the initiative to ask him for something. From a very young age, she has become the most famous person on this continent, and there are countless strong people in and out, but she is alone. He was accompanied by only his senior brother in Xining Town, and after coming to Kyoto, he was also accustomed to the quiet of the National Education College, but he was never alone. He could feel her loneliness, so whenever she wanted to hear something, he would start to say, rambling to talk about some small things, such as what kind of fish is delicious and non-poisonous, when the stream is the clearest, you can see the bottom of the pond more than ten zhang deep, there is a kind of guinea fish, as long as it goes to the highly poisonous internal organs, it is the most delicious, and those pine trees on the mountain are really like demon beasts.

Occasionally, she will also say, for example, which aunt in the town likes to scold the street the most, and which restaurant has the best food. He didn't understand very well, and guessed that it should be where she grew up. It's just that because she is getting weaker and weaker, and she feels that her life in the past fifteen years looks extremely dazzling in the eyes of others, but compared with Chen Changsheng's life, it is so boring, so she has some inferiority complex and doesn't want to talk about it.

She was very grateful to Chen Changsheng for speaking to such a boring person as her.

One day, when the snow came again, they rested in the seventh old temple on the bank of Baicao Road.

By the campfire, Chen Changsheng ended his memories of his childhood.

She looked at him and said sincerely, "You're such a good person. ”

Chen Changsheng thought to himself, this evaluation is not bad.

She whispered her blessings, "May the Light be with you." ”

Night Rain Old Temple, the first real conversation began, by now, dozens of days have passed.

May the Light be with you.

She repeats this prayer every day.

They were getting closer and closer to Zhou Dufu's mausoleum, and she was getting weaker and weaker.

Relying on the black dragon's frost and coldness, Chen Changsheng's injuries were slowly recovering, but her condition did not improve. The poison of the Peacock Feather kept spreading in her body, and gradually began to wreak havoc, and her Tianfeng True Blood lost too much, and there was no way to do it. Chen Changsheng once ventured deep into the grassland and hunted many demon beasts, but now, the blood of those demon beasts, whether it was fiery or cold, could no longer bring her the slightest help.

Wrapped in his coat, she leaned quietly on the haystack, looked at the flames jumping in the pyre, and said no more.

The snow temple was silent, even the wind had stopped.

Looking at her pale face and those watery eyes, Chen Changsheng felt very sad.

That's the sadness of starting early.

He wanted to say something, to break the oppressive silence in the temple at this time, but he didn't know what to say.

Seeing him with his head down, Xu Yourong knew his mood and said calmly: "It has nothing to do with you." ”

Chen Changsheng raised his head, looked at her and said, "Although until now, you have refused to say anything about the first night, but I know that you must have saved me, and you have never left me." ”

Xu Yourong looked at him quietly and said, "You are the same." ”

Chen Changsheng said: "I suddenly understand what you said that night now, if my strength is strong enough, as strong as before you were not injured, I can still take you away in the face of those demon powerhouses that day, instead of escaping into this grassland as a last resort and embarking on this desperate road." ”

Xu Yourong said: "On the contrary, I think what you said that night makes sense, if I wasn't so reckless, or I wouldn't be hurt at all." ”

That's what she really thinks right now. If after discovering the traces of the demon clan in Zhou Yuan, she did not walk on the mountain path alone because of pride, but chose to join forces with other human cultivators, such as the teenagers who were familiar with the Mountain Sword Sect, or the guy named Chen Changsheng, this qiē might not happen.

The snow temple became quiet again, and the silence was unsettling.

Chen Changsheng didn't like this kind of quietness, thinking about her previous prayer, and asked, "Is this the habit of your clan?"

Xu Yourong thought to himself that the Snow Mountain Sect was still too remote after all, and he was extremely proficient in Daozang, but he didn't even know about it.

"Yes, I wish you peace in your life. ”

"Thank you. ”

"Thank you too. ”

……

……

Xu Yourong is getting weaker and weaker day by day, but he has never forgotten what he said.

That was her sincere blessing and hope.

She knew that it would probably be difficult for her to leave this grassland again, so if there was still a possibility of survival, she wanted to give it all to this kind-hearted Snow Mountain Sect disciple.

Just when her fifteen-year life seemed to be coming to an end, Baicaodao came to an end ahead of schedule.

Just as her eyes were about to close, she finally saw the mausoleum.

She was on Chen Changsheng's back, taller than him, so she had to look at it for a moment before him.

The mausoleum looked more like a mountain from a distance, there were no cliffs between the mountains, and there were few green trees, so you could clearly see the straight lines from the top of the mausoleum to the foot of the mausoleum.

Chen Changsheng looked a little familiar, and walked closer to the mausoleum, only to remember that it turned out to be very similar to the Tianshu Mausoleum.

After walking in the grassland for dozens of days, he finally found the legendary Zhou Ling, how could he not be excited, but he and Xu Yourong were very tired now, and it was difficult to express joy or nervousness.

Continuing along the white grass road, the distance of more than ten miles, it still took a long time for the two of them to finally walk in front of the Qingling.

From this, it can also be deduced how high and large the mausoleum is.

When you come closer, the details of the mausoleum are seen more clearly, and the height becomes more realistic, such as the Shinto road that leads directly to the center of the mausoleum wall, which is thousands of zhang long, such as the huge ashlars that make up the mausoleum, compared with the first sight of the distance, the momentum is suddenly countless times magnificent, and a sense of coercion and solemnity is coming.

Chen Changsheng noticed that around this mausoleum, there were ten stone pillars. Those stone pillars are about a few feet high, and the carved patterns on the surface have long been eroded by hundreds of years of wind and rain into vague traces, and they look very dilapidated. Compared to the magnificent mausoleum itself, these stone pillars look a little weird, if not because of anything else, but they are too short and look a little out of place.

"You may not know, there are also many stone pillars outside the palace, I thought it was strange when I first saw it, but I didn't expect there to be one here. ”

He said: "I don't know why, I also think this mausoleum is very strange when I look at it, saying that it looks like the Tianshu Mausoleum, and I feel that something is different." ”

Xu Yourong smiled a little weakly, thinking that when he was three years old, he climbed those stone pillars outside the palace every day to play.

She leaned on his shoulder, glanced up at the mausoleum with difficulty, and said with a slightly confused expression: "The regulations of the mausoleum hall are somewhat similar to the golden hall of the Immortal Sect. ”

"Yes, that's the problem. Chen Changsheng said: "This mausoleum is very similar to many famous buildings outside the Zhou Garden, but after all of them are combined in one place, it feels a little ......

Xu Yourong said at the same time as him: "...... Nondescript. ”

After saying these four words, the two looked at each other and smiled.

For Zhou Dufu, the most legendary supreme man, anyone will be in awe, and when they come to his mausoleum, they must not even dare to speak loudly, let alone comment like this.

If it were another cultivator, when he came to Zhou Dufu's mausoleum, not to mention that he was so excited that he couldn't help himself, he burst into tears, he would probably be shocked and speechless, and he would even shout to vent his excitement.

But Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong didn't, they seemed very calm, and even a little unconcerned.

At the moment when they said these four words with a little disrespect, the fatigue and hardships of the journey seemed to disappear without a trace.
