Chapter 3: The Capital of the Emperor (3)
Yunhai came out with Bao'er, it was the fifth watch, and the sky was not bright, but the roadside vendors had already begun to buy and sell for a living. Yunhai found a stall selling meat steamed buns and sat down, while eating and drinking, he saw that Bao'er Wuzi's eyes were red and swollen, and he couldn't swallow it, and said with a smile: "What's the matter? The coarse steamed buns don't suit the taste? Let me tell you, this coarse steamed bun has other benefits, you don't know." ”
Bao'er said, "What's the benefit?"
Yun Hai said: "Once I spent the night in a broken temple, penniless, only a few thick steamed buns, slept until midnight, suddenly heard the small movement of Xi Suosuo, opened his eyes, but it turned out to be a badger arching my burden, I was overjoyed, secretly said, this is good, catch this badger, you have to fight tooth sacrifice." Who knows that the badger is not stupid, glimpsed my eyes wide, knew that I had bad intentions, turned around and ran, I was in a hurry, and I couldn't find a suitable object at hand, so I touched the thick steamed bun in my arms and smashed it hard...... And guess what? The badger was actually crushed to death by this hard steamed bun overnight, haha, I hurriedly fetched firewood to make a fire, and ate a good meal. Since then, I always have to carry a few thick steamed buns with me, so that I can satisfy my hunger when I am hungry, and I can use them as flying stones to beat people when I need them.
Bao'er couldn't help but laugh when she saw him say it. Yun Hai originally wanted to relieve the depression in her heart, and when she saw her showing her teeth, she smiled and said: "By the way, you are beautiful in life, and you are even more beautiful when you laugh, a mouthful of teeth is white, but I don't know if it's good or not, hurry up and try a few mouthfuls of steamed buns." ”
Hearing this, Bao'er said angrily: "Your teeth are white, like a big wolf dog in the yamen." As he spoke, his face turned red again, and he whispered, "I...... Am I really born beautiful?"
Yun Hai said: "Beautiful, of course beautiful, especially the appearance of chewing steamed buns...... As the saying goes, the cow chews the peony, and you are the peony chewing the cow, which is really wonderful. Yun Hai laughed as he spoke, leaning forward and closing back.
Bao'er knew that he had the intention to make fun of him, so he raised the steamed bun and was about to smash it, Yun Hai said: "Slow, you dare to smash even the immortals?"
Bao'er said angrily: "If you can't kill it, it's an immortal, and if you kill it, it's a clay person." ”
Yunhai heard the words and threw down a few copper plates and turned around and ran, Bao'er's steamed bun flew out, hitting him in the back of the head, and then bounced back, coincidentally, it landed in the porridge bowl in front of Bao'er, and the juice spilled and splashed her. Bao'er was stunned on the spot, Yunhai couldn't help laughing when she saw her funny appearance, and Bao'er herself couldn't help laughing.
In the afternoon of this day, Bao'er took the sea of clouds to a valley, which was clear and clear when she first entered, but gradually became foggy and foggy when she walked deeply, and she couldn't see the way out. The most surprising thing is that no matter how confused the eyes are, as long as Bao'er steps forward, the fog and smoke will immediately dissipate, revealing a winding but clear path.
Yunhai was worried about the whereabouts of the Qiankun Mirror in his heart, walking all the way like flying, and soon came to the place where the decisive battle with the remnant snow that day, the Hanlian Pavilion was dilapidated, the surrounding plants and trees were decaying, the flowers withered, the lake was desolate, the wind and smoke were filled, and it was no longer the same as before. Yunhai revisited his hometown, recalled the past with Ye Feng, his heart was sour, he stood stunned for a while, sighed, turned around and drew a wind spell on Bao'er, and stepped on the waves with her, and came to the Hanlian Pavilion.
The layout in the Hanlian Pavilion was originally extremely simple, but after the war, the walls were tilted, the tables and chairs were destroyed, and there was almost nothing except for broken wood on the ground. Yun Hai carefully investigated, found nothing, lost and melancholy in his heart, and was at a loss for what to do, when he suddenly heard De Bao'er say: "Huh? This painting seems to be a little strange. ”
Yun Hai raised his eyes when he heard this, and saw Bao'er looking at a broken landscape painting on the wall, with a confused look on her face. Looking at the painting in front of the sea of clouds, it was originally a landscape splashed with ink, the picture is quaint, the mountain shape is steep, the water is elegant, a person in the depths of the valley sits with his back to him, as if there is a deep fishing leisure, and he sees the free and easy of sitting and watching the clouds rise. Yun Hai looked at the picture for a long time, but did not see anything else unusual, and asked, "What's so strange about this painting?"
Bao'er pointed to the person in the painting and said, "This person...... He seemed to be talking to me. ”
Yunhai was stunned and said, "He?...... What did he say?"
Bao'er said: "He said...... He said......" Suddenly grabbed Yunhai's palm and said, "He said that if you hold my hand, you can hear what he says." ”
Yunhai was greatly surprised when he heard this, and listened attentively, and sure enough, he could vaguely hear a faint whisper from the painting, which was indistinguishable at first, but it was as clear as if it was at hand, and the voice was vigorous, as if it was out of the dust. Yunhai couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, looked around, bowed, and said, "Junior, Yunhai, meet the seniors of the dust." ”
The voice did not stop, and said to himself: "Bao'er, all kinds of things today are from the front edge, the Qiankun Mirror has been left in the world, and the responsibility of finding it is only on your shoulders, the future is dangerous and uncertain, pay more attention to yourself, I hope you can do your best to ward off evil and keep the right, don't let the Qiankun Mirror fall into the devil's way." ”
Shen Bao'er was surprised when she heard this, looked around in a panic, and said, "You...... Are you a senior in the dust? I ...... How can I have the ability to find the Qiankun Mirror, didn't my predecessor recognize the wrong person?"
Out of the dust said: "Bao'er doesn't need to be afraid, because fate will meet, you have your own decision, you have good friends to help, the right to do your best, what the result is, let it go." ”
When Yun Hai heard this, he couldn't help but interject: "Senior, the Qiankun Mirror fell into its own curse light and was lost, but where should we find it? If it is transferred to thousands of years later, there is no possibility of finding it?"
Out of the dust said: "I don't have a clue about the whereabouts of the Qiankun Mirror, but ...... Well, I'll tell you the origin of the Qiankun Mirror in detail. The Qiankun mirror is the time when Pangu opened the sky, with heaven and earth as the furnace, yin and yang as charcoal, all things as copper, and the essence of smelting is condensed. Those who enter the devil want to change their lives against the sky, create the world and destroy the world, so for thousands of years, the devil has been fighting each other, never stopped for a moment, fortunately, the avenue is not destroyed, the Qiankun mirror has never been touched by the evil spirit, until decades ago, a great change dispersed the Qiankun mirror Yuanshen, since then it has been split into Qian, Kun two mirrors, the dry mirror passes, the Kun mirror leads to the future, what is lost from your hands is the dry mirror, so it must be lost in the past, and you will be able to find it today. ”
Yunhai heard the ups and downs of his heart, he couldn't help himself, he was originally afraid that the Qiankun Mirror would be lost in the future, and there was no hope of reuniting with Zhuang Wumeng in this life.
Shen Bao'er lowered her head and thought for a while, and asked, "Senior, Qianjing is lost in the past, what about Kunjing?
Out of the dust said: "I can't tell you the whereabouts of Kunjing, but when you find the dry mirror, Kunjing will naturally appear." The old man's body has been destroyed, only a little spirituality is placed in the painting, can not last, if you two still have doubts, you can go to the top of Kunlun to find the true Pu Shenzhao, its clear understanding is too empty, or can solve your doubts. That's all the old man said today, you two have a long way to go, cherish it more, so let's go. ”
After the dust was spoken, there was silence in the Han Lian Pavilion, Shen Bao'er repeatedly called out the dust, but he didn't hear the slightest response, and couldn't help but turn to the sea of clouds in a panic, and said: "The predecessor of the dust is probably gone, what should we do now?"
Yunhai sighed lightly and said gloomily: "I don't know, and I just follow the fate, take one step at a time." ”
