Chapter 25: The Road to Life (I)
"Who are you?"
I don't know how long I was in a coma, and I don't know where it was, Liu Chen struggled to sit up, and raised his eyes to look blankly at the warmth that suddenly came into view. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hehe, I seem to have seen you somewhere, really!"
Although it was said that this body had aged to the point of not being human, Liu Chen still refused the support of the visitor, and after slowly getting up, he looked around at the fairyland-like mountains and rivers around him, and he was stunned for a long time.
"Let's drink tea!" The middle-aged man in the white shirt with a smile on his face was sitting under the old locust tree, listening to the murmuring of the stream, raising his eyes and flying birds happily, when the unknown camellia fragrant the tip of Liu Chen's nose, he turned around, and the middle-aged man motioned for him to sit on the ground.
"Sir!" Sipping the refreshing tea, Liu Chen realized that he was not dreaming, cold and warm self-knowing, all kinds of things here are extremely real in all his perceptions, when he put down the porcelain cup unsatisfied, but saw the middle-aged man in white in front of him, always smiling, like spring returning to the earth: "Who are you......? What is this place? How can it be so refreshing?"
"Oh?" While picking up the quaint purple clay pot and pouring tea for Liu Chen, the middle-aged man in white smiled brightly, and the corners of his eyebrows were lightly raised: "You don't know where this is?"
After thinking about it, Liu Chen shook his head, although the surrounding scenery was good, it made him very strange, so strange that he was a little lonely.
"Then do you know where you came from, and where are you going?" The middle-aged man in white smiled, bowed his head, and said softly to Liu Chen: "What did you see again?" What did you hear?"
Still shaking his head, Liu Chen's mind could no longer find a trace of emotion that allowed him to concentrate except for exhaustion.
"You've never been out, and you're going where you're going...... You have seen the heaven and earth that you have been looking forward to in your heart, and you have heard the innocent childhood that you have lost for many years!"
"Hehe, if you don't say it, I really don't remember!" Pursing his lips, Liu Chen looked into the distance, there were chickadees soaring in the forest, there were beasts running lightly in the stream, there was a breeze blowing through the maple forest, and the familiar cooking smoke, quietly disappeared into the clouds: "Many years ago, the Tibetan Soldier Valley was indeed very similar to here, and this old locust tree was exactly the same as the one in the eighteenth courtyard of Bauhinia Mountain...... This flower tea...... It's like the spring when I come back to town......"
"What do you remember?" The middle-aged man in white seems to have already gained insight into Liu Chen's perception, when Liu Chen was thirsty, he naturally filled with new tea, and when Liu Chen was very tired, he also put a wet handkerchief on the ground at the right time, his smile, every move, all did the most urgent need in Liu Chen's heart.
"I remember my wife being the Snow of the North...... And I, once the sword of the South!"
"Really?" the man in white smiled even more, "Then we are the same, my wife is also the snow of the north, and I was also the sword of the south!"
As soon as the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled, each with an ethereal heart, like a sound in the sky.
"I still remember!" found a comfortable posture and leaned lazily under the old locust tree, Liu Chen's eyes were full of memories: "I was born in a big noble family, very big, my father is a general, my mother is the emperor, and then something seems to have happened, and I ended up in a small city in Yunzhou...... I grew up in that little town, and I had a nice little hair, and a girl I liked for a long time and didn't dare to say it......"
"Did you tell that girl later, that you liked her and that you wanted to marry her!"
"No!" Shaking his head, Liu Chen drank the tea in the cup in one gulp: "When I was very young, I was in prison, and then I was sent to the army, and I was displaced all the way, so I didn't dare to tell people, I really didn't want to drag other girls down......"
"When you became famous, you didn't think about going back to her?" The man in white listened very seriously, and in the end, he even stood up and sat opposite Liu Chen.
"Hehe, after I became famous, I fell in love with my current wife...... I haven't been back to that town since!"
"This is what people call fate!" The two clinked glasses again, and heard the middle-aged man in white smile and said: "Providence is like this, when you lose what you think is the most beautiful, there will be more moving scenery, waiting for you in the future...... Everything is the most perfect arrangement of fate, no matter what you gain or lose, it is the cause and effect of your life!"
"That's what you say!" Pretending to roll his eyes helplessly, Liu Chen smiled at the man in white: "Just like a friend of mine, don't say it, the way you two speak, even the posture of sitting is the same, hehe, do you have to sing a few words of the sage scriptures later, to cultivate the sentiment of this rough person who doesn't know a few big characters?"
"Uh...... Truth be told, I used to be a reader!"
"Really?" Liu Chen was surprised, a little incredulous: "My friend is also a reader!"
"It's a pity that I ended up losing my name to Sun Shan......"
"Hey, my friend is better than you, he is the champion, the leader of Qionglin in our Kyushu Great Xia!"
"What about you?" the man in white was noncommittal, nodded and chuckled, "Are you the leader?"
"Hey!" At this time, Liu Chen smiled extremely freely, even he didn't know that when facing this middle-aged man in white, he would be as clean and clear as a pool of spring water in the Huaqing Pond: "Don't mention it, there was a title of martial champion that was only an inch away from me, but at the end, the glory of Baimakua Street fell on my other friend......"
"You can't beat him?" the man in white seemed to smile, so anxious that Liu Chen immediately fluctuated.
"How can it!" waved his hand repeatedly, Liu Chen said angrily: "Saying it scares you to death, since the successful start of refining qi, I really haven't lost a fight!"
"So powerful?"
"But isn't it, don't weigh what martial arts I've learned!"
"What martial arts, what exercises, so blessed?"
"Hmm......" The heavy nasal voice dragged the old elder, Liu Chen frowned and thought for a long time, and finally remembered some unforgettable memories, such as that night, he cowered and picked up the silk book on the ground, and when the people disappeared, he suddenly looked back, looking at the green mountains and covering the clouds from afar: "It seems to be ...... Listen to the mountain scriptures and ask the water tricks!"
"The name of this martial arts method is good, who came up with it?" leisurely pursed his lips and tasted fragrant tea, and the man in white shook his head like self-absorbed and said: "What a meaningful name, listen to the mountains and rivers...... Leaning on the railing with a single-minded sword, watching the flowers all over the sky! Not bad! Not bad! Hahaha!"
"When I was young, all the martial arts and all the techniques that the people around me studied every day were made ...... Who, I forgot, anyway, he named it alone, it's all on his lips, why can't he say it......"
Patting his head lightly and heavily, Liu Chen looked very distressed, the wrinkles and furrows on his face began to fold and shine because of this trace of boredom, under the old locust tree, the young man's white hair has long lost the so-called high spirit.
"Forgot again?" handed over a new cup of tea again, and the white-clothed man's face was light and light.
"Yes, I forgot again!" Liu Chen lowered his head, feeling quite depressed: "I forgot where I came from, where I was going, I forgot where I was here, and what year it was tonight, I still forgot ...... By the way, who are you, and where are we?" (To be continued.) )
