Chapter 164: A Deep Love
Chapter 164 is a deep love
The world comes and goes, and in the blink of an eye, the fate gathers and scatters.
The world is like the sea, and people are like droplets, passing by, without a trace.
The steps that took out step by step have gone through life and walked in my heart.
For some reason, she suddenly remembered the past, a little memory, like a star stone in that dark cave, there was a faint beautiful and elegant starlight, blooming a faint light, warming the cold life in the past.
His back was still familiar, even after many years, but it still looked like the man in the dark cave, holding his hand and walking in front of him, groping his way into the depths of endless darkness.
It turned out that many years later, what was still remembered in his heart was not darkness, not fear, or coldness, but the faint warmth in his palm.
In the sea of people, he walked in front, she followed behind, and returned to the past in a trance, even if the sun was shining at the moment, even if the crowd was surging, even if the sky was bright, but in her eyes, he was still the only one.
A little tenderness suddenly came to my heart.
There was a gentle smile on her lips.
dispelled a bit of gloom and laughed at his own troubles.
So she quickened her pace and walked towards him, the breeze passed by, it was the best scenery in the world, and the warm spring light seemed to arrive.
But they didn't know that they had passed the sea of people, forgot to embrace, and finally arrived at the lonely and lonely street.
The green branches of the old acacia pressed the white wall, and secretly poked out a few points alone, like winter and spring, locked in the deep courtyard. Shen Shi looked ahead, familiar with the courtyard and secluded house door, still standing quietly, the corners of his mouth showed a smile, striding away, the street was quiet, as before.
Zhong Qingzhu walked a few steps, and suddenly his heart moved, but he stopped aside. As the sun shone down, she looked at the front of the street in a daze, and the man walked to the door of the little cottage and knocked on it.
The door opened and laughter followed.
There is a gentle, beautiful, charming and touching woman, leaning on the door with infinite joy, smiling like a spring flower, and opening her arms, hugging tightly, putting her face against his chest, like a bird, with such a warm and reassuring smile.
The sun was like ice and snow, and the chill was frozen in my heart.
Zhong Qingzhu slowly raised her hand and covered her mouth, there was no sound in the quiet and cold street, and the mournful cry only instantly reverberated in her heart.
Her face was as pale as paper.
Her palms trembled.
Suddenly, she turned around suddenly, stood facing the wall, and did not dare to look at it again, but her eyes were blurry, and there was a cold and wet feeling, little by little, soaking the cheeks and cheeks.
Inexplicably, she suddenly understood that the tenderness that came out of nowhere turned out to be deep in her heart, and she was always in love.
But it is, and there is no going back.
※※※
She was a little distressed, gasped softly, and stood against the wall, as if she was about to fall down in the next moment. The gentle breeze blows, sweeping the strands of hair, and in the loneliness of the world, it seems that there is only one person left standing alone.
The past was like a tide, surging to drown her, and she suddenly missed the starlight in the dark cave, but maybe it was still fake after all, just a cold stone.
Worthless ...... Stone only.
She slowly straightened up, gritted her teeth, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, raised her head, and looked at the sky.
The sky is blue, high and vast, but I don't know the sky, but there are also people quietly staring at the world?
Then, Zhong Qingzhu turned around and looked ahead again.
There was no one there.
The white-walled door is tightly locked.
An old locust branch stretches out of the wall.
With a pale face, she walked forward slowly, step by step, from heavy to quick, from hesitant to decisive, the sun fell on her shoulders, the breeze followed her, the dust dodged like frightened, and the silence was like darkness!
The long street, in an instant, seemed to be the only one left to walk alone.
There is anger like lightning, flashing bright eyes, and there is gloom like dark clouds, heavy and oppressive.
I walked through the long street and came to the door.
The one, in front of the closed door.
She stopped, and she lifted her palm and slapped it towards the door.
It's just that there was a blank look in her eyes, and her fingers fell on the door a few inches away, slowly stopped, and never moved again.
She just stood quietly outside the closed door, silent, and stared in amazement.
In the small courtyard across the wall, Xiao Hei, who was lying under the old locust tree, moved his ears, and seemed to be a little confused to glance at the door.
Time passed quietly, Zhong Qingzhu's white hand finally fell slowly, she lowered her head slightly, her white lips trembled lightly a few times, as if she wanted to say something, but those words, after all, were still not spoken, only hidden in the depths of her heart.
Then she quietly turned around and quietly walked away.
From beginning to end, she came and went in silence and quiet, just like the lonely and careful life she had when she was a teenager.
※※※
On the 10th day of December, it was sunny.
Towards the end of the year, the winter is getting stronger, and the world is gradually beginning to have a New Year's flavor, but these two things are not available on Jinhong Mountain, the immortal realm. The monk is not a mortal in the first place, he is dedicated to the Tao, he is not afraid of cold and warmth, he does not care about winter and spring, year after year, he only seeks the immortal path of immortality to transcend life and death.
Shen Shi, who went down the mountain for a few days, returned to Jinhong Mountain on this day. After returning to the sect, he first went back to the cave mansion, and after a short rest, he saw that it was still early, and then went out to the Five Elements Hall of the Shutang, intending to meet the master.
It's just that when he walked outside the door of the Five Elements Hall, he saw a figure wandering on the stone road outside the main hall, pacing back and forth, looking around from time to time, it seemed that he was preoccupied, but it was Sun You.
A smile appeared at the corner of Shen Shi's mouth, and he walked over, and it didn't take long for Sun You to see Shen Shi, and suddenly a trace of joy flashed across his face, and he walked over quickly, and said with a smile: "Good boy, you can be regarded as coming back, let me wait so hard." ”
Shen Shi said with a smile: "I'm also tired of running around for life, how can I compare to you sitting on the gold mountain and enjoying it endlessly." ”
Sun You rolled his eyes, spat him, and then glanced around, looking at no one on the left and right, but there was still a little cautious look on his face, he pulled Shen Shi to a secluded corner on the side, and said in a low voice: "Did you tell Elder Pu about that?"
Shen Shi glanced at him and said, "Of course not, we didn't make an appointment before, do I have to wait for your news?"
Sun You nodded again and again, but then he leaned close to Shen Shi's ear, lowered his voice and whispered next to his ear. Shen Shi listened carefully, his face remained calm and unchanged, but he bowed his head slightly, and after a while, after Sun You finished speaking, he took a step back, looked at Shen Shi and said, "How?"
Shen Shi nodded and said, "That's enough." As he spoke, he smiled a little, and suddenly said, "Is this news really Senior Brother Wang Gan suing you?"
Sun You smiled slightly and said, "No, Senior Brother Wang Gan has a noble temperament and refuses to do the slightest deviant and wrong thing, even if I want to honor his Xuanyue Spirit Pill, I still insist on not accepting it, and after pointing out my doubts about the cultivation of the exercises in a few places, he let me go back first." ”
Shen Shi let out an "oh" and looked at Sun You, and sure enough, Sun You smiled, and continued, saying: "But the next day, I met Senior Brother Zheng Zhe somewhere in the mountains, and he and I hit it off at first sight, and he remembered the friendship he had on Qingyu Island for five years in the past. ”
Shen Shi thought for a moment and said with a smile: "If I remember correctly, in the five years on Qingyu Island back then, Senior Brother Zheng Zhe should be Senior Brother Wang Gan's right-hand man?"
Sun You smiled: "Exactly." ”
Shen Shi nodded and said, "That's fine, I know about this, and I will talk about it in front of the master when I find an opportunity." Saying that, he turned around and was just about to leave, when he suddenly paused again, glanced back at Sun You, and said, "But you should know about that, even if I tell Master, success or failure is still unknown, and I can't promise you that it will be done." ”
Sun You let out a sigh, a slightly self-deprecating smile appeared on his face, and said lightly: "I know, but for me, the odds of winning are much better than before, even if it is a gamble, I have to gamble!"
Shen Shi smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry." ”
After speaking, he reached out and patted Sun You's shoulder, then turned around and walked towards the Five Elements Hall, Sun You watched him enter the hall behind his back, and then stood for a while, then stretched his waist, as if relaxed, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and turned to leave.
The vast but deserted and quiet Five Elements Hall looks no different from the scene before Shen Shi went down the mountain, sometimes Shen Shi walks in this hall, and he can't help but think in his heart, is this hall so deserted for thousands of years?
Has there been a time in the past, in this majestic and imposing hall, there have been wonderful stories and amazing talents, or someone has left a singing and crying legend, carved in the history of this hall, and then gradually disappeared silently and quietly for a long time?
Xu Yanzhi, who is often here on weekdays, doesn't know where to go today, and she has never seen her, but Shen Shi is now a personal disciple of the ruling elder of the Shutang, so his identity is naturally different, and he is much more familiar with this hall than before. So he walked all the way, through the front hall and into the back hall, and sure enough, he found Elder Pu Siyi Pu who was lying on the chaise longue with his eyes closed and sleeping in the study he had been here once before.
"Master, I'm back. Shen Shi walked over and said respectfully.
The snow-white haired old man Pu opened his eyes and looked at him, and said with a smile: "I've come back to the stone, how about the harvest this time when I go down the mountain?"
Shen Shi said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to go to Centipede Mountain to search for a good life, but I encountered some delays in the middle, and the harvest was average, but there is one thing that is not bad." ”
As he spoke, he smiled and pulled out something from the Ruyi bag on his waist, and placed one jar after another on the ground, a total of five wine jars.
Old man Pu's eyes lit up, he jumped up, laughed, slapped Shen Shi on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Good boy, sure enough, the old man didn't see the wrong person." In the past, every time Xu Yanzhi's little girl went down the mountain, she either forgot to buy wine for the old man, or she was stingy and only bought a jar to come back, how could she be as arrogant as you!"
Talking and smiling, he picked up a wine jar and slapped it open, put it to his mouth and poured a mouthful of the boss, and finally sighed, showing an extremely satisfied look on his face, and he looked like an old drunkard.
Shen Shi walked to the side with a smile, pulled a chair and sat down next to Old Man Pu, and said with a smile: "Master, you drink slowly, and every time I go down the mountain in the future, I will remember to bring you wine." ”
Old man Pu smiled.
Shen Shi did not retreat with a smile on his face, and then said as if he was very casual: "By the way, Master, when I came over just now, I saw a person outside the Five Elements Palace, it was Sun You, do you know him?"
