Chapter 312 [leader]
Some years later.
An unknown point in time.
On the edge of the rolling yellow sand, where the grass leaves have withered and faded, there is a small inn.
Although this place is desolate, it is by no means remote. There are many caravans coming and going. They are not short of money or armed guards, so they like to buy a large jar of herbal tea from the inn owner to quench their thirst. Over time, the name of this inn has spread.
go out.
The inn is called Longmen Inn.
The owner of the inn is named Yu Jiechou.
The inn is very strange because the name of this desert is not Longmen.
The owner of the inn is even more strange. He is a handsome and elegant young man. He doesn't seem to be used to doing rough work, but in this Longmen Inn where there is only one person, he can always do everything well.
The rivers and lakes are vast, and there are many strange people and strange things. The caravans and escorts only think that this is a person with a story, and out of caution, they will not inquire too much.
Nowadays, Yu Jiechou's favorite thing to do is to make a pot of hot tea and stare at the yellow sofa.
Many, many years ago, if someone saw the "Dragon Inn" plaque, they would be curious and ask the boss if he was a big fan of the movie.
But now, no one will ask that.
Everything will eventually become a forgotten tomb.
Every night late at night, Yu Jiechou always asks herself, are the things she has done over the years really worth it?
Secretly guiding the explosion of science and technology, entering the upper echelons of mankind to make decisions personally, using the ability of foresight to lay countless hidden traps...
He has done everything he can, but the world is still like this.
Knowing everything, but unable to change the future, he can only build a so-called Dragon Gate Inn in the yellow sand and guard it until time takes away his life.
Yu Jiechou feels that if his experience is made into a movie, it will definitely make him cry.
Of course, it is actually fun to see the people passing by here every day.
Yu Jiechou has always liked to watch people's past and future, which gave him a sense of déjà vu as if he were appreciating movies. Everyone's life is an inimitable book, the martial arts master who acts as a dart, the couple who elopes, the businessman who works hard, the shy man.
The young bird in the world...
In fact, this kind of life is not bad, and living till now is not too bad.
Time passes day by day, and the Longmen Inn in the rolling yellow sand bids farewell to generations of people.
Until one morning, a young man walked into the small inn.
He is very young, wearing a moon-white robe, and his jade trees stand in the wind to the extreme. No matter which era or place he is in, he fits the title of "beautiful boy".
Yu Jiechou glanced at the young man and did not look away for a long time. This was not because he was amazed at the young man's handsomeness, but -
He had no information about this boy.
Name, age, past, what is on my mind, future...
This young man who suddenly came to Longmen Inn is the only person in Yu Jiechou's life that he cannot see through.
"Hello, are you the owner of the inn?"
"Yes..." Yu Jiechou nodded hesitantly. He realized that today was definitely unusual for him.
"Oh my, I finally found you!" the young man shouted exaggeratedly, his face quickly fell down, and he poured out his bitter words to Yu Jiechou:
"In order to find you, I climbed over mountains higher than the sky, killed the snake monster with 999 heads, drank three seas, and ate ten suns..."
"Wait a minute! I can understand climbing over the mountain, but what the hell are those three things at the end?"
"In short, I have sacrificed a lot to find you. Look, these 100-soled shoes are worn out!"
"It's all a mess..." Yu Jiechou scratched his hair and said feebly:
"Who are you anyway..."
The young man paused and showed a bright smile:
"I'm here to find you. My surname is Yun."
"You just told me your last name? That's very insincere."
"But I really only have a last name." The young man explained a little aggrievedly:
"Clouds are clouds, floating in the world, and will eventually turn into nothingness... Where does it get the name?"
Yu Jiechou rolled his eyes:
"Do you think I haven't heard of storytelling? In Mayfly Town, which is ten miles away from this inn, there is a storybook called "The Legend of Yunjian Xia Ke" that is very popular recently. These few sentences of yours are copied from the seventh chapter of this storybook, right?
?”
"Hey, why are you so serious... My surname is really Yun, but I really don't have a name."
Yun, Yu Jiechou recited this surname silently in her heart, her eyes almost bulging out, but still found nothing.
"Yun...brother, let's get straight to the point, what is your purpose? Don't tell me it's for tea. Although my ability doesn't work on you, my mind is still clear."
The young man named Yun's eyes lit up and he said softly:
"One day, when I was lying in the mountains and watching the stars, I suddenly felt that the night sky was foggy, but when I looked carefully, I couldn't see anything."
"I thought about it for a long time and had a conjecture in my mind, but it was too outrageous, so I decided to look for the most knowledgeable person in the world."
"My intuition tells me that the person who knows everything is right in front of me in this Longmen Inn. This person is you."
"Then, please tell me whether my guess is correct." The young man named Yun approached Yu Jie Chou with a serious expression:
"Is there... something in the sky?"
Yu Jiechou's hands trembled violently.
This is a secret that has been buried, and it is also the helpless truth in today's world.
"Yes..." After a while, Yu Jie said sadly:
"They live in a place higher than the sky."
"Ah, as expected, I knew that my intuition was not wrong." The young man named Yun smiled brightly and said something that made Yu Jiechou stunned:
"You can follow me from now on. Oh, by the way, what's your name?"
"Yu Jiechou...uh, what did you just say?"
"Old Yu, please follow me from now on." The young man named Yun put his arms around his shoulders and did not give Yu Jiechou any chance to retort:
"Although you are older than me, my fists are much stronger than yours... Lao Yu, if you accept me as your leader, let's go fight for something big!"
Yu Jiechou found that he simply could not understand the brain circuit of the boy named Yun.
You jump to this topic too quickly, right? And why do you call yourself the leader? There are only two of us...ah, no, when did I promise to follow you!
The young man surnamed Yun laughed and hugged Yu Jiechou, refusing to let go no matter what.
"Okay, okay, Yun...brother, calm down. It's okay if you want me to follow you. It's okay to even recognize you as the leader, but you have to say what we are going to do, right?"
"This is actually very simple. There are only two things in total." The young man named Yun was still smiling:
"First of all, the two of us are not enough. We need a few more partners... Well, let's find five more."
"There are seven of us, give them a particularly handsome name, I will be the leader, and then we will go to a place higher than the sky to find them."
There was no smile on the face of the young man surnamed Yun. He said words one by one that Yu Jiechou would never forget:
"We find them and ask them a question."
