Chapter 36: The Broken Candle Infatuated Lover
In the narration of the hunchbacked old man, Wang Yizhi learned that the reason why the hunchbacked old man is here is because of the word "love".
Many hunchbacked old people don't remember it very clearly, in Mowei's words, it is too stimulated, and many things may be selectively forgotten, and he is still struggling with himself about emotional matters.
More than a hundred years ago, the hunchbacked old man was upright and in his prime, handsome in appearance, coupled with his love for music and poetry, and his talent was outstanding, walking there would attract countless women to indulge in madness, and he was also happy in it, although he was in the midst of thousands of flowers, but he could do it without sticking to the fragrance of flowers, until the appearance of a woman, although it was just a pair of eyes, but let him resolutely and willingly give up everything, just for her.
But the good times didn't last long, for various reasons, the hunchbacked old man had to leave, she said that she waited for him, but it was only a few years, when he saw her again, she thought she was married, he was grief-stricken, determined not to see her again in this life, but not long, when she knew that he had returned, began to look for him desperately.
"When I got the news, I couldn't bear to see her sad, so I agreed to meet her at the place where I first met"
Speaking of this, the hunchbacked old man burst into tears, and cried directly, and continued in a choked voice: "Outside the pavilion, I saw her, or maybe it was not only her, because she was pregnant at the time, I watched from afar, and saw her happily saying some doting words to the child in her belly, I knew that what I wanted was no longer important, I was alone, I came here, every day, but my heart never stopped aching."
The crutches in the hunchbacked old man's hand poked heavily on the ground, and when he looked at Wang Yi, he was sluggish, and his eyes were empty: "I'm a bad old man, and I don't have a few years to survive." ”
Wang Yizhi had the heart to comfort one or two, but he didn't know how to speak, for the affairs of men and women, what he knew and experienced was only the ancient spirit beasts of Di Eleven and Mo Lan, and the relationship was still unclear and unclear.
The hunchbacked old man took out a white silk handkerchief from his chest, which was embroidered with beautiful handwriting in gold wire. He handed it to Wang Yizhi, Wang Yizhi took it, glanced at it, shook his head at the hunchbacked old man and said, "Senior, the kid doesn't know"
When these words were spoken, Wang Yizhi did not have the slightest embarrassment and discomfort, because he didn't even have a chance to learn the universal font of the demon spirit, let alone this world script that had just arrived!
The hunchbacked old man was obviously stunned, and only after a moment did Wang Yizhi stand up tremblingly, and began to read the font content with his back to Wang Yizhi:
I like you because of your inner beauty,
You are a very cultivated and educated person, and you also have experience
It's easy to be with you, and I'm never happy
You're the other half of my life
I don't care if you're poor or rich
Inner wealth is far more important than the outer copper stinky skin
There are many women who may confess to you
For me, it was the first and last time
I think I must be crazy to say that
You can go with confidence, I will wait for you
This is a love letter, a love letter that fell in love a hundred years ago, it was difficult to achieve both, and after a hundred years, unrequited love broke down, and the infatuated man and woman were separated
Inexplicably, Wang Yizhi's mind sounded the sentence "No matter when, the thatched house is your home"
For a while, there was a sense of sadness about leaving home.
After a long time, when Wang Yizhi came back to his senses, the sky had already turned black, the stars were full, and the waterfall in front of the fence courtyard was under the moonlight and starlight, there was a kind of beauty of the Nine Heavens Milky Way, and this moment was intoxicating.
On the low table were two large chicken legs and two pieces of multigrain bread, as well as a pot of clear springs, and the rattan curtain was deliberately tied, just enough to see the hunchbacked old man lying on the edge of the bed, breathing deeply and dullly.
Wang Yizhi inquired about Mo Wei and realized that a day had passed at this moment, and he had been inexplicably settled for a full day, in the face of Mo Wei's blame, Wang Yizhi was also afraid for a while, looking at the meal in front of him and the hunchbacked old man lying on his side, Wang Yizhi began to pull Mo Wei to analyze the love letter.
The night passed in a hurry, Wang Yizhi did not practice, nor slept, his mind was full of the content of the love letter on the silk handkerchief, this simple few words, but it was difficult for Wang Yizhi and Mo Wei, although Mo Wei lived for a long time, but he never involved in love, and even what was the inner meaning of pregnancy after a few years, he didn't know much, for Wang Yizhi's contempt, Mo Wei didn't seem embarrassed, just silent, just watched Wang Yizhi analyze it all night, and asked Wang Yi for what he didn't understand, and asked Wang Yi one or two, one of them dared to ask, and the other dared to answer。
"Little friend, I saw that you realized something yesterday, so I didn't bother, don't blame" The hunchbacked old man brought porridge and a few fruits boiled from the flower dew in the forest, which was a good breakfast.
"Thank you seniors, kid Wang Yizhi, seniors can call me Xiaoyi"
Although Wang Yizhi could not eat it, he did not notice anything unusual, and according to Mo Wei's words, even the Yin and Yang Soul Destroying Flower was useless to him, plus Tang Xiaoqi's ten thousand poison therapy could survive it, there were really few poisons in this world that could poison Wang Yizhi.
After breakfast, Wang Yizhi followed the hunchback old man, went to the mountains and forests behind the house to pick up firewood, and picked some ripe fruits by the way.
With Wang Yizhi's assistance, the hunchbacked old man smiled and joked that he could be lazy for several days.
After spending half a day with the hunchbacked old man, Wang Yizhi returned to the tribe with a kind of old man, and the old man told some ridiculous and interesting stories to the children in the tribe, as if it was yesterday not long ago.
"Grandfather, although the kid is not deeply involved in the world, and he doesn't know much about love, but when he came out of the mountain, someone once said to me, and every time I think of it, I will have palpitations in my heart, "No matter when, the thatched house is your home" and I don't know why, I feel that the title of little lover is also very pleasant"
After lunch, after chatting for a while, the hunchbacked old man began to take a nap as usual, Wang Yizhi felt that the hunchbacked old man was not sleeping, and his breath was still a little chaotic, obviously thinking about something.
When the hunchbacked old man heard Wang Yizhi's words, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pick up, obviously laughing.
"Although I don't know if it's right or not, but I think there are all kinds of laws in the world, and love should be all different" As he was saying, Wang Yizhi suddenly ran out of words, and he didn't know what he was talking about, why he was talking about the exercises, suddenly, he thought of Qin Changsheng, and his eyes flashed and said: "The exercises that are beyond the ordinary law are called the anti-heaven exercises, and the same must be true between love, rather than avoiding them like this, according to the actions of the boy's friends, it is better to greet them with a thick face, it is nothing more than success or failure"
"Greeting each other with a thick face is nothing more than success or failure"
The corners of the hunchbacked old man's eyes moved slightly, and cloudy tears slipped down the folds and ripples, like small river water, meandering endlessly, muttering repeatedly in a low voice, and his heart could not be calmed down for a long time.
