Chapter 72 The Tomb Keeper is Gansu
The bonfire was leaping, and all of us were sitting silently under a leeward hillside.
I didn't rush to the tomb of the Great Demon to collect any demon souls, just because after Ruyue's sad mood vented, Ruxue said: "Chengyi, your master has long been tampered with the remnant soul. Others will either destroy it, otherwise they will not be able to take it away. Now, there may be someone with capable people who see the problem. I will wait for you to collect the demon souls and then fight before the tomb of the Immortals."
I don't understand why Ruxue knew so much from beginning to end. At that time, I was not in the mood to ask Ruxue what she said. Since we didn't rush to rush, we just found a place to camp until dark.
Because of such a mutation, everyone was silent on the road. Although Xiao Xi and Xiao Mao didn't know what happened, he followed him obediently. Bai Huier fell to the end, so naturally it would not make any noise.
The atmosphere was so uncomfortable. Everyone was doing things silently, rushing to the road, camping, making fire, and Lao Zhang was looking for food. Even Qinhuai and Laogui Wu probably figured out what Ruxue might have to leave, and they were no longer as "lively" as usual. Qinhuai just patted my shoulder intentionally or unintentionally and gave some comfort. Laogui Wu looked at me pitifully from time to time.
Am I worth it?
At this moment, food was roasting on the bonfire, and the careful Lao Zhang didn't forget to stew a pot of soup every time to warm us up. But the silent atmosphere continued until now, with only the "gudonggudong" sound in the soup pot, mocking such a dull atmosphere.
‘Bang bang bang’ is the sound of Lao Zhang knocking on the smoke pot. Then Lao Zhang’s somewhat vicissitudes of voice came into each of us: “I have known you not long ago. I want to have a thick-skinned relationship with you. I said that I have been together for a few days and have a deep relationship with you. I don’t know if you recognize me? But I will say whether I recognize me or not.”
Speaking of this, Lao Zhang took out his wine bag from his arms and took a big sip of wine. I wanted to take it over and take a sip, but I didn't expect that after the fight, Lao Zhang, who spoke to us with a little respect, glared at me and said, "I'm so cowardly, what wine should I drink at this time? Listen to me after I finish my words."
I didn't insist, but Lao Zhang sighed and began to say, "I am a veteran. My wife has been with me for more than 20 years. My son is about to go to college, and life is just going on like this. I don't feel any regrets. I am also an ordinary person. I don't understand the so-called harmony of cultivators, but no matter what, there is only one. Two people in love are going to separate. What is the difference between this and the world? Tell me about this world. How many men and women in love are going to separate and live their lives? What is life? Who can leave these things? Let's use a metaphor to myself. When I was young, I liked a girl and went to the bone. I still feel free to be idle now. I still think about how she lives? What is she likes now? Will she still think of me?"
Speaking of this, Lao Zhang also took a sip of wine and said, "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I said this. The girl was separated from me in the end. What's the reason? Haha, because I lived on the mountain at that time, my parents disliked me and found a factory. But, don't you think I'm fine now? Even if I think of her, I'll be called by my wife to buy a bottle of vinegar. My son won't go home from school and went to the wild. I have to find it. This kind of thing is interrupted because thinking of her is not more important than the trivial things in my life now! Do you understand? I think you two are too carefree. Do you know what I think?"
Lao Zhang said that Ruxue and I were listening to him seriously. We were originally in a bad mood, so we all looked at him and waited for him to give us an answer. The authorities were confused, just like Ruxue and I, no one really let go of their hearts. This kind of unwillingness to stay in our hearts will eventually become a "demon"!
"That is, when you two like each other, it's good that you just like each other seriously. The woman has to leave. Yes, explain the reason clearly. The man can't keep it. Yes, be generous, give a blessing to the woman's peace of mind. What's the regret of this? Who of you has let anyone down? Tell me, you can still ask for everything in this world? That's strange!! If it's not satisfactory, you won't live a good life. You have to do something willful and cannot live with life. This is strange!!" After Lao Zhang said that, he continued to drink.
After a sip of wine, he finally whispered: "As long as the two people who like me are worthy of each other, if you fight for it, you will let go! Just like that girl, when I like her, she also likes me, and treats me well, what can I hate? Can anyone say that this does not exist? Let's talk! Then, I must marry someone at that time, take someone to elope and never see my parents in my life? That's not possible, she deserves me, and it's enough for her to marry that person in the future to be nice to her."
Ruxue and I were silent. Lao Zhang's words were extremely simple, but also extremely profound. This is the simplest ordinary wisdom of life for ordinary people. At that time, Ruxue and I made this wish. We fell in love for half a year, and then we separated, but we couldn't separate. The relationship was still entangled with each other, just because we couldn't see through and couldn't let go.
"Okay, I want to say it, I've said it, do you two think it's necessary to communicate? It's not snowing now, and there's still the moon. The scenery in this old forest is nice. Let's go and talk, and I may be relieved." Old Zhang looked at Ruxue and me.
Ruyue leaned on Ruxue's shoulder, looking at Ruxue reluctantly, Ruxue patted Ruyue's shoulder. We have never asked how she and Qinhuai came here.
However, now is not the time to ask about this.
Ruxue patted Lan Ruyue and said, "Yes, I can't escape, at least I have to explain it to Cheng one by one."
Ruyue only realized this time. Maybe I felt a little sad compared to her. After all, she looked at me worriedly.
I stood up and said, "Yeah, I'll listen."
—————————————————————————————
The old forest under the moonlight is as Lao Zhang said, it is really beautiful. The moonlight shines on the snow-white trees and the snow-white ground, and it lightly puts silver light on every thing, flashing like a dream world.
Ruxue and I walked quietly in the forest. The snow on the ground was creaking and creaking. Bai Hui was following us from afar, guarding us against wild beasts. Everything actually had a quiet beauty.
"At that time, I had a wish in my heart. Do you know what it is?" I spoke, and the long white air that was exhaled from my mouth soon dissipated into the air.
"What is it?" Ruxue asked, holding my arm naturally, warming my heart, or Lao Zhang's words really made Ruxue realize something, just like me.
"It's just that Yueyan Miao Village is beautiful, but we always fall in love there. It's a pity. I really want to take you to many places, such as going to see the sea and the mountains. At the very least, go to see the West Lake." I tried my best to say calmly. Although I couldn't feel sorry for me immediately, I knew what Lao Zhang said was reasonable.
"It's so good." Ruxue's answer was still simple, but she really thought it was good.
"That's good, but I can only think about it. At that time, we decided to watch a movie every year. Ruxue, I won't lie to you. It's the thing I hope most every year. I am very happy to come to Lao Linzi this time and I feel like I'm traveling with you." I said, looking at the moon in the sky.
"I'm so sorry, Chengyi, I can't watch the movie with you anymore. I'm really leaving, no, not leaving, but staying." Ruxue's voice was full of apology.
After all, she will start telling me.
"Stay? Well, you said." I knew Ruxue would confess everything tonight. I was waiting for Ruxue's following. I always remember Lao Zhang's words, wishing her blessings and let her leave with peace of mind.
"Yes, stay because I want to be a gravekeeper." Ruxue looked at my side face and finally gave the answer!
