Chapter 41: Where to go
Boundless darkness, as if for eternity.
Even the beautiful face of the woman in pink who was close at hand, he couldn't see a trace of it.
But Lin Yizhi clearly remembered that the moment before he closed his eyes, the figure in white was extremely clear.
The white dress was ethereal, and the figure was familiar and unfamiliar.
Perhaps he was really confused, and the man in white was a stranger who had never been seen before.
The cheeks are a little cold, cold, but a little warm.
Lin Yizhi knew that it was the tears that flowed from Lu Xiyue's face, dripping on his face.
Why did you cry again when you said you wouldn't cry?
He wanted to smile at her, and then wipe the sadness from the corner of her eyes, but after raising his hand a few times, it didn't move as if it wasn't his own.
I can't support it anymore, close my eyes.
It's just that at the last moment when he lost consciousness, he suddenly felt that Lu Xiyue and his hands were tightly clasped together, his hands were scarred, and there was even a trace of pain because of the clenching.
However, it was still very tight, very tight, very cold, very cold.
The woman in pink, with a clear voice, the green jade flute screamed mournfully, carrying her and him, straight to the sky.
Behind him, the demon beast roared, and there was only a single figure of a man in white, and the golden charm in his hand was thrown desperately on the eyes of the four-pupiled bear demon, not retreating.
The next moment, Lin Yizhi was completely unconscious, and was finally completely surrounded by darkness......
Legend has it that this world was originally a place of chaos, and this chaos was lightless, and darkness was born from there. After more than 48,000 years, Pangu opened the sky, and the clear qi rose and the turbid qi fell.
So a glimmer of light was born in the darkness of this world.
Nightmares after nightmares, countless grimaces of evil corpses, flying and hovering in his dreams, with a hideous look on his cold face without a trace of life, and then a complete roar that shook the sky. The behemoth's bloody mouth swallowed its body hard, tore it, and chewed it. Flesh and blood flying.
Then there was darkness, darkness like a bottomless abyss, accompanied by a cold that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, not only the body, but also the heart.
This kind of inhuman torture made Lin Yizhi, who was unconscious, constantly moan without any regularity, miserable and painful.
If he had a choice, he would rather be killed by someone with a knife than to linger like this, curled up in a boring way, facing the fear in his soul.
"Ahh
Groggy, in a trance like water waves in front of him, he worked hard for a long time, and finally saw clearly, the gentle sunlight in front of him, and the light that seemed to have been seen after a lifetime.
He greedily took a few deep breaths of the worldly air, and felt that the breath of this worldly world was more delicious than that of Liwu Mountain.
He tried to move his body, but suddenly realized that it was a delusion, because even the force of moving his fingers had a tearing pain.
He snorted, and lay down honestly again, his eyes finally seeing his surroundings clearly after a long trance.
This is supposed to be an inn, with a bed, and the bed cover is soft and comfortable. The room was huge, and there were two red-painted pillars in the corners, reflecting the sunlight and shining brightly.
Looking up, it is a good Nanmu roof, and even the roof is also carved with lifelike pictures, and the whole house is antique and elegant.
It's just that Lin Yizhi really doesn't have the heart to watch these things, he only cares about where he is now, and where is the little junior sister?
"You're awake!" someone spoke, but it was very unfamiliar, not the voice of the little junior sister, but the voice of a strange man, but the man's voice was clear and beautiful, and his deep voice was full of deep concern.
The figure flashed, and a young man in white appeared in front of Lin Yizhi's eyes. Lin Yizhi was lying flat, and this person looked at him like that, and his sword eyes were full of concern.
Lin Yizhi vaguely remembered that when the four-pupiled bear demon was about to swallow his junior sister, a man in white suddenly appeared, took a golden charm that he didn't know where, and pressed it the eye of the bear demon.
And the man in front of him is that man.
Lin Yizhi looked at him for a long time and was silent.
Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, the face is also handsome, and in the blazing eyes, there is concern and warmth, and Lin Yiyi's heart seems to be much more down-to-earth.
"It's you......" Lin Yizhi made enough effort to say this.
The young man in white smiled elegantly and said, "It's me, you have been unconscious, I was worried about your injury, so I rushed here." ”
Lin Yizhi suddenly seemed to remember something, and said quickly in a low voice: "That...... The ...... was so anxious that his breath couldn't keep up, and before he could say anything, he coughed violently.
The white-clothed young man frowned slightly, hurriedly reached over, pressed his finger on Lin Yizhi's pulse, and said after a long time: "The pulse is disordered, but you can't be too anxious, it's not good to attack the heart in a hurry, don't worry, the four-pupiled bear demon was hurt by my eyes and ran away, just recuperate with peace of mind." ”
Lin Yizhi calmed down and looked into the room, but saw that there was no trace of the little junior sister, and asked in a low voice, "How long have I been in a faint?"
The young man in white smiled, Lin Yizhi only felt like a spring breeze, but the sunshine outside was in his smile, and the warmth was a little inferior.
The young man in white said: "She's fine, but she's lost some of her true qi, and now she's all right, she's afraid that you will wake up hungry, so she went out to buy you something to eat." This is Tingshui Xuan, the largest inn in Liyang City, you have been in a coma for a whole day, and now the sun is about to set. ”
Lin Yizhi noticed that although the light outside the window was still relatively sufficient, it was already with a heavy dusk, and the window was due west, revealing the western sky, which was a touch of residual sun, full of sunset.
Lin Yizhi nodded again, but he was too sleepy, so he closed his eyes and went to sleep again in a groggy state.
The young man in white got up and poured a bowl of tea, handed it to him and said, "Try to see if you can straighten up and drink this bowl of hot tea, maybe it will be more comfortable." ”
Lin Yizhi felt that his mouth was dry, and the coldness in his body had not faded, so he opened his eyes and made it several times, each time when he was halfway through his body, he fell down heavily.
In the end, the man in white had to hold up half of his body with his right hand, and handed over the bowl of tea with the other hand, he was no smaller than Lin Yizhi with great effort, supporting Lin Yizhi's body with one hand, and Lin Yizhi didn't dare to use a trace of strength, or there was no strength at all, the weight of the whole person was completely pressed on the right arm of the man in white, and the man in white was still holding a tea bowl in his left hand and sending water to Lin Yizhi's mouth little by little.
Due to the low bed, the young man in white was nearly eight feet tall, and he had to kneel half-before he could feed Lin Yi's water. It's just that the man in white didn't care at all, just smiled heartily, and there was also a very concerned look in his eyes, and he watched Lin Yizhi drink a bowl of tea with good eyes.
Then he got up, didn't ask Lin Yizhi, poured another bowl, still with the same posture and expression, and fed Lin Yizhi water again.
This round trip, without stopping, back and forth has been three times. This young man in white was like serving his own brother, and he didn't get bored at all, and Lin Yizhi also drank three bowls of tea in a row.
Lin Yi's heart was already quite unhappy, he met him in Pingshui, and saved himself and Lu Xiyue's lives, and he was so meticulous to himself like a relative.
Relatives, Lin Yizhi has not touched these two words in his heart for many years, because these two words represent pain, despair, life and death, yin and yang in his fifteen years of life.
It is in front of Moyoufeng Mountain, the group of laughing senior brothers, the master with the jujube kernel head, the gentle and kind teacher, and the smiling little sister, these may be considered relatives, but they are just relatives.
But at this moment, the white-clothed young man in front of him with a smile that made him feel like a spring breeze made him really feel an inexplicable closeness, a subtle feeling of relatives like blood thicker than water.
The young man in white looked at Lin Yizhi in front of him with a smile, his smile was like the wind, the white clothes were so pure, at this moment Lin Yizhi seemed to feel that the warmth above the white clothes and the sunshine outside the window were a little ashamed.
"I ...... Did you know you before?" asked Lin Yizhi suddenly.
In fact, he knew the answer, he didn't recognize him at all, but he still asked it, as if he had to hear him deny it himself before he could die.
The man in white smiled gently: "You don't know me, and so do I, but it doesn't hurt if you know each other from now." ”
After speaking, the figure moved, and he already stood up, and shook his long sleeves and said, "You're better!"
Lin Yizhi closed his eyes and felt for a while, maybe it was the effect of the three bowls of hot tea, or maybe it was the warmth of the man in white, he suddenly felt that his originally cold body actually had a trace of heat.
The man in white seemed to know Lin Yizhi's recent situation, and without waiting for him to answer, he had already come to the door, pushed open the door and said with a smile: "In this way, my task is completed, come to me, your junior sister is about to come back, so I will leave." With that, he stepped out of the door.
Lin Yizhi didn't know where the strength came from, so he suddenly straightened up and said to the white-clothed young man who wanted to leave at the door: "You stay for a while, what is your name?"
The man in white stroked his palms and laughed a few times, and said with a bit of pride: "I saved you, I just happened to pass by, and I didn't want to do anything, the road leads to the sky, if you have a fate, you can still see it, and I leave!"
After that, the white clothes flickered, and the white shadow had disappeared from Lin Yizhi's eyes.
Only from the footsteps of the staggering downstairs came a loud chant:
"A hundred songs are shocking, and ten thousand swords are terrifying.
The road of the world is insignificant, and he is a drunkard in a trance.
The lights are bright and the colors are gone, and the wind is faint in hand.
Scholars are useless, and the dream of becoming an immortal is only empty.
Distribute the search for Ruan's book, and sing Guangling on the piano.
I could only hear this singing and walking, and gradually the sound faded away, and finally, nothing could be heard.
Lin Yizhi lay in a trance for a long time, and felt that the pain in his body was better, so he struggled to get up slowly, sat cross-legged, asked the sky with five hearts, and slowly performed the pranayama exercise of "Leaving Worries and Endless Paths".
Lin Yizhi used the technique of "Leaving Worries and Boundless Paths" to the extreme, pulling the clear and pure true qi to run in the body for five hours in succession, and then slowly opened his eyes, felt for a while, and felt that it was already very good.
Slowly getting out of bed, Lin Yizhi leaned against the wall and walked slowly for a while, feeling that the soreness in the whole muscle and bones slowly disappeared, so he sat at the table, his mind was blank, and he waited for Lu Xiyue to come back.
It's just that he sat like this for an hour, but Lu Xiyue hadn't come back yet, Lin Yizhi and the others were a little anxious, so they slowly opened the door, moved downstairs step by step, and came to the street.
At this time, the sky has been dark, the sun has completely set, there is only the last bit of light left in the sky, Lin Yizhi looked up, the tall buildings and low pavilions in front of him, row upon row, it is indeed prosperous and tight, but because it is almost dark, the windows of many houses have been lit with soft candlelight, there are several big families on the street, and the red light is tall above the gatehouse.
Liyang is still so prosperous, so noisy, but the prosperity is theirs, the hustle and bustle is theirs, and they have nothing.
It is these thousands of lights, the red lights are long, but they have nothing to do with him, where is their home? Where is their former warmth?
Suddenly, there was a wind, blowing the red lanterns of large households, floating left and right, and the red candlelight was charming. The wind became stronger and stronger, blowing off the leaves on several big trees beside the road, and the leaves drifted left and right with the wind, and gradually the whole city was full of leaves.
There were also some pedestrians who returned late on the road, all of them were in a hurry, raising their hands in front of them, and hurried home. Even those stray cats and dogs on the street corner slowly hid in the dark corner with the wind.
Lin Yizhi walked indifferently like this, everyone else was rushing home, and where would he go?
The wind blew his black coarse cloth clothes, which had long been unclothed, and in some places they had been blown one by one, and they were as empty as his empty heart.
But more coarse cloth, stained with his own blood, now that the blood had clotted, stuck to his body, and he walked like this.
It was completely dark, the wind was stronger, the black clouds were rolling in the sky, and the next moment, the rain finally patronized the ancient and somewhat desolate Liyang City.
Ten miles of long streets, bleak and rainy nights. He walked alone, limping along the uninhabited road, not knowing where to go, his black clothes were completely wet with the rain, and seemed to melt into the dark night.
Where are you going? Where are you going? Lin Yizhi asked himself over and over again in his heart, if he didn't leave Fengling Village at the beginning, he would be dead, but would he be able to withstand the painful confusion he is now!
There was a crisp sound of "ding-", and a copper coin on the ground in front of Lin Yizhi rolled and fell at his feet. Then a soft female voice said, "Hey, this beggar, it's raining so hard, where are you limping? ”
Lin Yizhi suddenly raised his head, and in front of him was a beautiful woman with heavy makeup and thin gauze like cicada wings, just glanced at him, and the copper coin was lost by her, I am afraid that Lin Yizhi's dress is limping again, and this woman is mistaken for a beggar.
Lin Yizhi smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head helplessly.
The beautiful woman was stunned and said, "What are you laughing at? ”
Lin Yizhi secretly thought, beggar, it doesn't matter if it's like this, and then bent down to pick up the copper coin that had long been buried by the rain. It's just that he bent down and looked up at the woman with heavy makeup.
However, even at this casual glance, he looked at this woman's beautiful face as if he had been struck by lightning, and his eyes did not take his eyes off for a moment.
The woman was a little angry, glanced at him, and said angrily: "You beggar, I pity you for nothing, what do you do to look at me like this, if you look at me so beautiful, you have money to go to the Jinghong Courtyard to find me, this stupid look, take advantage of me, isn't it?"
It's just that the woman's figure is gradually moving away in this rain curtain, and Lin Yizhi's whole person seems to be frozen, staring at the woman's back with her eyes, not moving, there seems to be a little fanaticism, a little excitement, and a little helplessness and sadness in her eyes.
The next moment, the heavy rain finally blinded him. It's just that he still feels that the figure of this fireworks woman is so familiar......
