Chapter 65: Ananda
I don't know how long I've been running, but I feel more and more tired, and I have no strength. His hands were covered with blood, his body was scratched in many places, his skin was open, and his face was completely bloodless in pain.
Shen Yan stopped and held on to a big tree to gasp. The torrential rain seemed to doom him to his sad fate tonight. It was like an endless jungle in front of me, pitch black, invisible, and with no way out. He wanted to give up, but someone's smiling face flashed in his mind, bright as light, supporting his belief in living.
So, he gritted his teeth and continued to run, just to keep the man's agreement with him. He had promised her that he would go back earlier, and although he seemed a little redundant with the third brother there, he still wanted to be by that person's side. If you can, I want to touch her belly and say something to the children in there. Tell the child that he is the seventh uncle, and he is the person in this world who may love you more than your father.
During his three days in the border city, he had thought about it. Regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl in the belly of the wood, he had to teach him to ride a horse and hunt. Tree climbing must be learned, because his seventh uncle was the best at climbing trees in the imperial city when he was a child, and even the third brother was not his opponent. Anyway, no one stipulates that girls can't climb trees, they have to be heroines among women, and climbing trees is a basic skill!
Reading, writing, painting, painting, playing the piano, etc., let the third brother teach. He really had a headache with these, and when he went to the study to listen to the lectures, what he was best at was drawing turtles. The rest, he can't. Comparatively speaking, the third brother is much more powerful in this aspect, so the third brother of Wen teaches Wu, and Wu is naturally taught by him.
When the child grows up a little more, if Wood agrees, then he will take him out to play everywhere, and take him through all the places he has walked. Let him see the mountains, rivers, and natural wonders, and tell him that he must be open-minded, and if he is bullied by anyone, don't retaliate. Come back and tell Uncle Seven, Uncle Seven will help him beat people.
He would tell the child that if he was bored with his studies and was blamed by his strict father, he would come to Uncle Seven. Even if it is the third brother, the seventh uncle is not afraid of you! Of course, the premise is that your mother cannot stand on the same front as him. Uncle Seven can barely fight your father for a few rounds, but there is nothing he can do about your mother. Therefore, our position should be clear from the beginning, you deal with your mother, I deal with your father.
At that time, the third brother may be the emperor of Daming, and the children are naturally the crown prince or princess. Although you are in the royal family, you can't help yourself in the big things of marriage, but with the seventh uncle, you can marry whoever you want, and you can marry whoever you want. Don't be afraid that your father will not agree, at most the seventh uncle will elope with you, the world is big, and the seventh uncle can take care of you wherever he goes.
In the end, he will watch the children get married and have children, and if possible, he will also watch the next generation of Little Douding be born, and will continue to love and protect them. The seventh uncle became the seventh uncle, and he grew old, until he closed his eyes, he was always happy.
Scold......
Shen Yan couldn't help but smile when he thought about it, just imagining it had already made him so happy, so he really hoped that it could be realized. But......
He stumbled under his feet, he fell to the ground, the heavy rain mixed with the mud, and the slippery road was very difficult to walk. He ran for a long time in pain, and finally lost his strength. If he could, even if he climbed, he wanted to go back and get back to the man. With his last breath, he had to tell her that he didn't break his promise. Even if Shen Yan is a liar, even if he deceives all the people in the world, he will never deceive her.
Because she is Xiao Qi's wood, even if she never belongs to Xiao Qi, she has always been in Xiao Qi's heart, never forgotten, and never intended to forget.
How good does Xiao Qi have to be to Wood? How much does Wood have to love Xiao Qi? These are not important for a long time, as long as he can be by her side, as long as he sees her and laughs every day, it is enough.
"No, I can't. Wood...... Still... Waiting for me to get back...... How do I... You can die here......"
Shen Yan stood up with a tree, his strength was insufficient, and he fell back to the ground. Because of the excessive blood loss, his consciousness began to be a little blurry, but he could still faintly see the flickering light of the torches not far away. He knew that it was the ambush of the eldest brother, and he knew that he might not really be able to go back this time.
It turns out that this is what it is like to wait for death......
He couldn't move, so he just sat against the tree. His body was already soaked with rain, but it also made him sober. He remembered that when he went to Xuanwu Mountain to look for the dragon vein, the third brother went to buy dry food on the way, so he got out of the carriage with Mu and sat on a stone bridge to wait for the third brother.
At that time, he was looking at the river flowing under the bridge in a daze. Mu suddenly said, "Xiao Qi, do you know the story of Ananda?"
Confused, he shook his head. Mu smiled and told him, "Before the Buddha Ananda became a monk, he saw a beautiful girl on the road, and since then he has been in love with him. The Buddha asked him, "How much do you like that girl?" Ananda replied, "I would like to be incarnated as a bluestone bridge, and I would like to be blown by the wind for 500 years, sunburned for 500 years, and rained for 500 years, just begging the girl to walk over the bridge." ”
I remember that the first thought that jumped into his mind after listening to this story was that he just thought that the person named Ananda was really a lover. So he asked Wood why he suddenly told him this story.
Wood's eyes twinkled, and she said, "I just remembered it by chance, and I said it." I also heard it from others, and after thinking about it, I thought it was not worth it. Because in the end, I still didn't get anything, but suffered for so many years. ”
The footsteps are getting closer, and the firelight is getting closer. A smile rose at the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and now that he thought about it, he realized that when Mu Tou said this, he originally wanted him to give up earlier and not be persistent.
However, at this moment, he felt that he was willing to become the person named Ananda. And he definitely won't give up halfway, he will wait until she shows up. Because no matter how many years you wait, at least you can still see each other. It may have been a little longer, but he really didn't want to break his promise.
So, he raised his hand to cover his chest, leaned on his memory, and muttered, "I would like to be incarnated as a stone bridge...... Blown by the wind for 500 years, exposed to the sun for 500 years, and rained for 500 years, I only want that wood...... ...... be able to walk across the bridge."
"Found it!
The figure approached, the sword flashing. Shen Yan closed his eyes, unwilling to look at those faces anymore.
Third brother, be careful of the eldest brother. I may not be able to comfort the wood with you this time. You have to take good care of her, and if you can collect my body, remember to take the child to see me in the future. On the queen mother's side, I'll trouble you to appease it. And the father......
Oh, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry...... My brother always causes you trouble, so he throws all the blame on you. But I promise, this is the last time. Really, for the last time......
