A separate story in the true sense of the word

Next Chapter

PS: This is just a separate small story before the crossing, it is not systematic, lacks a plot, and it has little to do with the text, so you can watch it or not.

――――――――――――――――

At noon, in the 204 ward of Beijing Zhen'an Hospital, the spring sun shone down, and the room was even whiter.

An emaciated woman was lying on the hospital bed, looking up at a slightly "literary" man opposite with some difficulty, her lips squirming, as if she wanted to say something.

The man held a fruit knife in his hand, lowered his head and peeled an apple, his expression was serious, and he did not look up at the woman.

The apple skin is thin and thin, as if transparent, in stark contrast to the long black and thick hair on the man's head, the leisurely temperament, the calm expression, and the man's slow movements are even more chic and natural.

The woman sighed softly and quietly watched as the peel of the apple grew longer and longer, as if there was no end in sight.

A throbbing sensation came from her heart, she breathed sluggishly, a trace of sourness flashed in her heart, and finally she couldn't help but speak: "Don't give up ......"

As soon as these two words came out, the man's hand moved obviously.

He slowly raised his head, with an inquiring look in his eyes, but only lightly, from his nose: "Huh?"

The woman was silent for a moment, as if a long time had passed.

Lowering his head, the man peeled the apple again. The woman gasped for breath and said in a weak voice, "You say...... Will I ...... I can't survive this spring......"

The man's eyelids jumped, he didn't raise his head, he just shook it slowly, and said softly: "Don't think about it, it's been all over the years, and it will get better." "There's nothing new about it.

A smile tugged at the woman's pale face, far-fetched and weak. The face that was originally as smooth as jade has long been emaciated.

She knew she wasn't going to look good right now. Pale skin and yellowish hair. Turning her head sideways at the strand of long hair that had just fallen off in the corner of the bed, she sighed quietly in her heart, and said faintly: "Don't give up...... In recent years...... Have you ever looked for her...... She ......"

"Click!" there was a soft sound, and the peel of the apple fell from the break and fell into the trash can below.

The man's thumb oozed a trace of blood, and he instantly lifted it from the fruit knife, paused, and said, "Don't think about it, don't worry, we haven't been in touch for a long time." At the same time, he sighed in his heart: "I'm afraid I can't contact ......" He didn't say this sentence, and after saying the previous sentence, he lowered his head again and peeled the apple seriously. As for the thumb that he accidentally cut just now, he only pressed it on his pants, and after stopping the bleeding, he didn't bother with it.

The woman looked at the man quietly, not seeing his small movements below. Just thinking back on the past five years, a trace of nostalgia and guilt flashed in his eyes. She adjusted her slightly sluggish breathing, her voice was weak, and she spoke again, "The ...... you've always loved." It's still her......"

The man's hand trembled again, but this time it was very slightly.

The thin and transparent apple peel grew a little longer under the knife again, and the man didn't raise his head and said, "Don't think about it......"

That's the answer again!

Although the woman knew that this was the truth, she still couldn't help but feel a little lost in the face of the man's perfunctory answer.

However, after the loss, there is a deep guilt.

......

Her name is Zuo Nan, and his name is Zhao Buqi. His name means "gentleman is not a weapon".

"The metaphysical is the way, and the metaphysical is the instrument", so "the gentleman is not the instrument" refers to the formlessness. If there is a form, it is easy to be full, and if there is a degree, it is easy to overflow, and a gentleman cannot be like a utensil, and his role is limited to a certain aspect. A person of virtue has no body, so he is thoughtful, not a special talent and an art. It is necessary to understand the study and debate, self-cultivation and practice and set morality and benevolence in oneself, understand the heavenly and authentic human nature, be able to write and martial arts, and be a generalist, no longer limited to one skill and one art.

But perhaps it is the change of the times, and it is always "not successful" in the understanding of ordinary people. And Zhao Buqi did not reach what his parents expected, and really became a "failure".

At least not in the eyes of others.

He dropped out of school at an early age and was obsessed with Taoism, but in today's society, there is no Taoism to learn. Even authentic monks and Taoists are no longer authentic, not to mention that he is a "layman" who has not yet become a monk and just ponders the Buddhist and Taoist classics by himself.

After eight or nine years of "cultivation", Zhao Buqi simply achieved nothing.

If it weren't for the fact that he had read too many Buddhist classics and made him quite fond of classical literature, he had dabbled a lot since he was a child, and he was a little "crooked". I'm afraid I won't even be able to feed myself.

The "crooked talents" here are serious, some are not serious, and some are half-righteous and half-improper. Seriously, he has good calligraphy, and he is also quite familiar with poetry and couplets, and he can also make a small profit by relying on some Spring Festival couplets during the New Year. And the "improper" is the use of "Taoism", usually he will pretend to be a Taoist priest, do some fortune-telling and look at the feng shui "law", although because of the age is slightly bad business, but can also make a few small money. Half-serious and half-indecent is to post some of your fantasies on the Internet and write them into novels. Because he understands a lot of Buddhism and Taoism, with his strong metaphysical skills, some people like to watch it, so he can finally get by.

It is these bits and pieces that add up to make him "famous" in the local area.

Of course, this is not a modest statement, it is really a little famous, and it is not a good reputation.

At least in the community where he lives and the community where his parents live, they all know that he, the "eldest son" of the Zhao family, is idle and does not do his job.

Since it is said that the "eldest son", there must be a "second son". And Zhao Buqi's younger brother is much more serious than Buqi in terms of name. is named "Zhao Zixuan", and he looks like Zhao Buqi is "in the same vein", and he is a little handsome. And he is still motivated, much better than Zhao Buqi in the eyes of the old man.

Zuo Nan and the "she" in Zuo Nan's mouth are the ones who met Zhao Buqi through Zhao Zixuan.

"She" is called Shen Ping, and she and Zuo Nan are very good sisters.

In a class reunion, Zhao Zixuan was very drunk, and since everyone else was going with his boyfriend and girlfriend, he was sent home by his boyfriend and girlfriend when he was drunk. Only Shen Ping, Zuo Nan, Zhao Zixuan and another girl did not.

The other girl was unsociable and left after eating. And Shen Ping, Zuo Nan and Zhao Zixuan had a good relationship, so they couldn't let him stay on the road overnight, so they discussed sending him home together.

At that time, Zhao Buqi had already come out of the house, and Zhao Zixuan and his brother had a good relationship quickly, and they often ran to Zhao Buqi. After getting drunk, he was in a trance, and as soon as the two girls asked him where he lived, they subconsciously revealed Zhao Buqi's address.

The two women took a taxi to help Zhao Zixuan all the way to the road, and as I said before, Zhao Buqi was a young seeker and dabbled a lot, in addition to various Buddhist scriptures, Taoist classics, and ancient books, there were also musical instruments such as pianos, flutes, and pottery, as well as weapons such as swords, guns, swords, and halberds. Although most of these are furnishings, Zhao Buqi is not proficient in all of them, and some of them may not even be proficient, but they also decorate a room with ancient charm and classical characteristics.

Zhao Buqi has always regarded himself as a cultivator, and the things he wears inside and outside the home are also classical Hanfu, and there are few clothes such as casual and suits.

On the day when the two girls sent Zhao Zixuan back, Zhao Buqi was wearing a robe and half an arm.

The Taoist robe here does not refer to the kind of clothes that can only be worn by Taoist priests with yin and yang gossip, but a form of Hanfu. The right side of the collar is crossed, the slit on both sides, connected with a concealed pendulum, tied with a tie, the neckline is often decorated with a white or plain collar, the sleeve is a wide pipa sleeve, and it can be worn with silk, cloth thin belt or large belt, the whole is similar to the straight jacket, and it is a kind of regular clothing in ancient times. From literati to peddlers and pawns, they can all be dressed.

Zhao Buqi is wearing such a dress, with a half-arm on the outside, a free scarf on his head, and cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles under his feet, plus he is already a little handsome, and the overall look is simply an ethereal temperament born leisurely.

Zuo Nan and Shen Ping were "shocked" by this temperament. Not to mention shocking, but most of the "ancient" clothes like this appear in TV series, and in reality, they are the first time they have seen them. Especially the room furnishings of Zhao Buqi, the scholar's ink treasure, antique, and the curiosity of the two daughters about him has risen in a straight line.

Zhao Buqi's character and conduct are close to the carefree and inactive nature of Taoism, and there is also the moderation and benevolence of Confucianism. For the two daughters who worked tirelessly to send their younger brother back, they naturally stayed to welcome each other (this is complete nonsense) and gave them warm hospitality. But at this time, it was getting late, and it was inconvenient for the two girls to stay for a long time, and Zhao Buqi, as a guy who was only three or two years older than the two girls, was naturally not good at staying, but he was worried about what danger the two girls would encounter on the road.

It happened that the place where the two girls lived was not far from here, and the two girls couldn't refuse, so they agreed. The three of them talked a little along the way, and the two women only felt that Zhao Buqi was "knowledgeable" and "extraordinary". Let's not mention whether this is an illusion of the two of them, but the two of them do have a good impression of Zhao Buqi.

After a period of time, Zhao Zixuan, the two women, had a deeper understanding of Zhao Buqi. I am more and more curious about Zhao Buqi, a "handsome guy" with many titles such as "young layman", "poetry expert", "calligraphy master" and so on.

Some people say that curiosity is the source of a mundane thing, we don't know if this sentence is right, but it is because of this curiosity that Zuo Nan and Shen Ping deliberately befriended Zhao Buqi, and then the three of them went from acquaintance to acquaintance, from acquaintance to acquaintance......

Zuo Nan and Shen Ping are both beauties, and they dare not be called peerless beauties, but they do have their own characteristics. Especially the personalities of the two have their own merits, among which Zuo Nan is round on the outside and square on the inside, while Shen Ping is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

It's not specific to say that it's cold on the outside and hot on the inside, but Shen Ping does occasionally show a "cold" temperament when she talks about it, but most of them are still very easy to speak.

Especially the gentle, considerate, and empathetic "temperament" she unconsciously revealed, which completely moved Zhao Buqi, a "fake Taoist".

However, although Zhao Buqi felt that he liked Shen Ping, his pursuit of carefree character made him hesitate. After all, having a girlfriend is equivalent to an extra layer of bondage. The affection of his parents is predestined and cannot be changed, but whether to step into the trap of love or not is his own choice.

After struggling for a long time and hesitating for a long time, Zhao Buqi couldn't make up his mind.

In the end, it was decided that all laws should follow fate, and nothing should be done.

To put it simply, it is not to pursue, not to seek, not to refuse, and to develop to which step is which step.

Fortunately, Shen Ping also has a good impression of him, and even likes him. The two people didn't confess, didn't have courtship, didn't swear an alliance and an oath, so naturally they came together.

The sentiment is as simple as simplicity, as elegant as chrysanthemum, vast as smoke; not related, not related; only wish that the bright moon in the sky and the moon are round.

But there are good and bad things in this world, there are blessings and curses, it is naturally good for two people to be together, but the bad is bad, Zuo Nan also fell in love with Zhao Buqi during this time.

Zuo Nan's personality is round on the outside and square on the inside, and he is the kind of person who looks weak, but is very assertive.

Although she likes Zhao Buqi, she also takes her sisters' feelings very seriously, and she can't do anything with a third party.

Originally, this matter has passed for a long time, Zuo Nan just likes Zhao Buqi, and after a long time, the feelings will fade. But the bad thing is that Shen Ping doesn't know about it, she is used to sharing everything with her sisters, and she is very happy to bring a "light bulb". And Zuo Nan is also "reluctant to welcome" this kind of thing...... Don't get me wrong, I just still like Zhao Buqi, and when I received Zuo Nan's invitation, I couldn't help but stay with them for a while.

But feelings are like this, the more you can't get it, the more you have to suppress it, and the more the feelings will explode in your heart.

On the surface, you may not be able to see anything, but after a long time, and unconsciously, Zuo Nan's liking for Zhao Buqi even gradually evolved into love.

However, things did not end there, Zuo Nan's health was not good, he was weak and sickly since he was a child, congenital heart failure, and under such "worry", he directly relapsed his old disease and fell ill on the hospital bed.

This time the situation was very strict, Zuo Nan even felt like she was dying, and in this state of mind, she desperately wanted to confess her heart before she died, so she ......

She didn't die, but Shen Ping was gone.

Shen Ping originally didn't plan to leave. But Zuo Nan was really dangerous at that time, and even the critical illness notice came down. Shen Ping felt that her life as a good sister had come to an end, and she hoped that she could leave without any regrets. So I discussed with Zhao Buqi, hoping that he could be her boyfriend for the time being......

This kind of thing is not too much, after all, death is great, and it is also a good deed to be able to fulfill her wishes when she is dying, Zhao Buqi thought about it and agreed.

But maybe it's because of the good mood, Zuo Nan didn't die this time, and even the doctors thought it was a miracle of life......

But this is facing a problem, whether Zhao Buqi will stay with Zuo Nan or return to Shen Ping's side?

Originally, the best way in this situation was to be together at the same time, but Shen Ping was gentle, kind, and considerate...... For a while, the Virgin Mary was ill, and he felt that if he was in Zhao Buqi, he would not be good to Zuo Nan wholeheartedly, and although Zuo Nan did not have a few years to live, after all, he didn't know whether it was a year or two or eight or nine years. As a good sister, of course she hopes that Zuo Nan can live a long time, do the three of them have to be ridiculous like this? What's more, what Zuo Nan wants is love, not pity, if that is the case, it will be unfair to Zuo Nan, so ...... She's gone.

I don't know if she has considered whether this is unfair to herself or unfair to Zhao Buqi.

But she just left, silently.

Only one envelope was left, hoping that Zhao Buqi could take good care of Zuo Nan......

Zhao Buqi's reaction at that time was very calm...... At least on the surface.

He has never been a person who is used to expressing his feelings, and he is not used to "gaffes" in front of people. Although Shen Ping's approach was inappropriate, it was understandable in the eyes of others, and as for Zhao Buqi's reaction, no one commented on anything.

Only Zhao Buqi himself knew how frustrated he was at that time.

The reason why he still chose to stay and take care of Zuo Nan may be to fulfill Shen Ping's instructions, and from now on, the two will not interfere, and they will completely draw a line with her in their hearts. Maybe it's just a numb action, and there is still a trace of faith that Shen Ping will come back. Or maybe like Shen Ping, he was kind and couldn't bear to make Zuo Nan sad. But no matter which of the three is this, even Zhao Buqi himself doesn't know.

Maybe...... There are all three......

But now...... But it doesn't matter anymore......

Zhao Buqi sighed quietly, and the sadness in his eyes flashed. "Pop!" the peel falls. He instantly retracted his expression.

The knife in his hand turned nimbly, quietly sliced through the apple, and cut a small strip.

Zhao Buqi raised his head and showed a gentle smile.

But at this time, suddenly the alarm bell of the heart detector at the head of the bed went on.

His smile froze.

"Smack!"

The door opened, and the doctors and nurses rushed in......

※※※

"Brother-in-law......" Zuo Ling stood in front of her sister's tombstone, looked at Zhao Buqi beside her, and said in a low voice: "My sister is gone...... My sister told me about you...... You, are you going to find Sister Pingping now?"

"Huh...... I can't find it" Zhao Buqi'......s tone was relaxed, but there was a special vicissitudes of life, which made Zuo Ling stunned for a moment.

Looking at Zhao Buqi, I saw that his face was calm, but his lips were tightly pursed, and his eyes were full of complicated light.

Up and down, from the inside out, exuding a deep exhaustion.

gives people a different kind of vicissitudes.

Zuo Ling was stunned: "Brother-in-law, ...... you" Before she finished speaking, she found that Zhao Buqi's gaze suddenly turned elsewhere. She subconsciously turned her gaze away, only to see that it was an adjacent tombstone. But when she saw the name on the tombstone, she saw that it was clearly engraved - Shen Ping!

"Ahhh......h How...... How so!"

But this is Zhao Buqi has already retracted his gaze, resolutely turned around, and slowly walked into the distance. Walk firmly, move forward. Only a faint six words floated from the air: "Six months ago...... Car Accident ......"

Zuo Ling's heart was blocked, and she saw that every time Zhao Buqi fell, it seemed to step on the tip of her heart, and she felt uncomfortable for him.

But in a trance, she found that Zhao Buqi's steps began to drift.

It was as if with each step, he was one step away from this red dust.

Thousands of love threads were cut off and paved on the road he walked. And his figure is more and more ethereal.

It seems that he has ascended to the immortal level, and since then, he will never appear in this chaotic world again.

"Where are you going?" Zuo Ling couldn't help but ask.

However, he did not get half an answer.

The figure is swaying, fading away......

Suddenly!

A black light descended from the sky, faintly resembling a bead.

But the speed was extremely fast, and Zuo Ling only had time to exclaim: "Be careful!" The black light completely engulfed Zhao Buqi......

――――――――――――――――

PS: Here's another synopsis

This is a world of gods and saints, where people fight against each other, families fight against families, nations against nations, and even races. The fight is nothing more than fame, fortune, and the opportunity to become holy.

It's a pity that the world's knowledge is shallow, they don't know that there is a sky outside the world, there are immortals outside the world, and they don't know the truth that "the husband is the only one who can't fight, so the world can't fight with it". All living beings, but they are just struggling to get by.

Zhao Xuan, a modern person, came to this world with "Eight or Nine Xuanyuan Gong", and has the ability to shuttle through all worlds. Since then, the love of the landscape has been carried out from the martial arts. Don't seek fame or profit, what you seek is nothing more than longevity and leisure.

The poem says:

There were once 3,000 eons in the sky, and 500 years on earth.

The smoke outside the object is the companion, and the sun and the moon in the pot are Chanjuan.

The eyebrows are left by the sword and the starlight, and the clothes are sleeping clouds and Bilan.

If you will get it from this, there will be no mystery outside this mystery.
