The light wind blows the flowers and leaves on the mountain, no matter where you fall, you feel at ease.
On the big rock, the old man who was awakened was holding his chin in pain. But when he saw Zhou Yeqing next to him with a shocked face and a golden hair in his hand, his face full of pain was replaced by worry.
"You brat! You ruined my big event!"
He stretched out his hand, and the black and white gourd gradually became smaller, flying down like before. Taking the gourd, the old man opened the spout and looked at it, then took it to his ear and shook it. He felt that there was only half a shake in it. Suddenly, his face
The sadness on his face became a little more serious. He turned to look at the culprit with anger. But after all, Zhou Yeqing was only a half-grown baby, so what could he say.
Staring at this naughty child angrily, feeling angry but having nowhere to vent his anger, the old man just sighed heavily, then sat down on the boulder in frustration, drinking wine.
Zhou Yeqing knew that he seemed to have gotten into trouble. For a moment, he didn't know whether to stand or sit, walk or stay. He could only stand numbly behind the old man. When both of them were silent, the man was pinched by Zhou Yeqing.
The golden hair in his hand quietly transformed into an earth-yellow root-like object. With a sudden twist, the thing broke free from Zhou Yeqing's hand and fell to the ground without a trace.
"Old man, your golden retriever has escaped!" Zhou Yeqing was startled and shouted quickly.
The old man didn't move, as if the matter had nothing to do with him. When Zhou Yeqing saw this, he looked a little embarrassed and stopped shouting. The old man sat there cross-legged, taking a sip of wine from time to time, and opening his hands to calculate.
But it seems that I have never seen it through, so there are often obscene words and sighs coming out of my mouth.
After another dirty talk, the old man took a sip of wine helplessly. Suddenly, as if he realized something, he turned around and looked at Zhou Yeqing.
"Boy, come here." She patted her hand on his side. Zhou Yeqing didn't know why, but he felt guilty in his heart, so he walked forward and sat next to the old man.
"How did you get here?" The old man looked at Zhou Yeqing with a thoughtful look in his eyes and asked. Zhou Yeqing summed it up and told him everything that happened after he stepped on the Life-Sighing Bridge.
came out.
"Really there is a python head?!" After hearing that Zhou Yeqing encountered a giant snake, the old man screamed abnormally and somewhat eccentricly. Zhou Yeqing didn't understand what the secret was, and he couldn't understand his reaction at the moment. He was just stunned.
He nodded and admitted.
Seeing Zhou Yeqing nodding in acknowledgement, the old man looked at him meaningfully with deep unknown emotions in his eyes. These two glances made Zhou Yeqing's heart beat fast and he felt a little uneasy.
"You should have heard the story about Song Zong's Tianmai." As he said this, he picked up the gourd in one hand.
Zhou Yeqing was a little surprised. He didn't know why the old man suddenly mentioned this to him, but he nodded again. The old man continued: "That story is true, but it doesn't end." After saying this, the old man continued.
Stopped, suddenly
Ran stared at Zhou Yeqing. After seeing that there was no big fluctuation in his expression, he turned his head with satisfaction and took a sip of wine. Then he continued: "Although the heavenly veins have fallen, his will is unyielding.
It has always been suppressed under the lake across the world."
Although Zhou Yeqing had been prepared and expected, he was still surprised when he was really sure. But when he thought about it, he felt something was wrong, so he said with doubts: "I saw a python head, that's it."
A snake. But that is the will of Tianmai, so it will never be a snake elephant."
The old man looked calm, shook the gourd to himself, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Its consciousness complained about the unfairness of heaven, so its resentment was not extinguished, so it turned back and turned into a demon. The snake elephant
That’s its grievance.”
When Zhou Yeqing heard this explanation, he immediately fell silent. When he heard this story that day, he felt sorry for the unfairness of Tianmai. Who would be willing to be a puppet, unable to transcend his whole life and be used by others? But at that time, he
It was just a story, but it never occurred to me that it was actually true, and that it had been unwilling to give in to its grievances for thousands of years, even if it was sealed and imprisoned in a small lake.
"I have tried to persuade it once before, but it is still so arrogant and unwilling to compromise or let go of itself." "The ancestors have already repaid the cause and effect, but it still doesn't want to end it." The old man thought of this.
, drank two more sips of wine, and suddenly felt depressed. There happened to be someone beside me, and he started to talk without realizing it.
"Who said you have to accept an apology? Only it knows what it endures, so it can accept it, or of course it can reject it. If it has to be forced to accept an apology, then this apology is meaningless.
"Zhou Yeqing felt something in his heart and spoke out his thoughts without realizing it.
It wasn't until he realized that he was talking too much that he quickly stopped talking, but his words had already been heard.
"Then what do you think we should do?" The old man was thoughtful at this moment and tried to say. Seeing that he was not angry because of his words, Zhou Yeqing breathed a sigh of relief. Then he thought about it seriously and then
Then he said: "It's better to let him choose by himself!"
"Let him choose?"
"Yeah, let him choose."
The old man was silent. It was not that he had never thought about this before, but the resentment of Tianmai had been bound for thousands of years. If it were to be released, it would be fine if it was willing to let it go. If it was unwilling, the consequences would be serious.
Zhou Yeqing saw the old man's doubts in his eyes, so he said to himself: "Tianmai has been trapped since the beginning of this world. It has no right to choose from the beginning. Even now, Lianlian does not accept reconciliation.
I can't help it. I think it's not because it's still resentful, but it's waiting for the right to choose, a choice of its own."
The old man's eyes shone brightly. He recalled how every time he saw it, it was so arrogant. "Maybe it is really waiting for an opportunity to choose freely." The old man told himself.
Quietly, a gust of wind from the mountains blew past here, passing behind the two people, running towards the green mountains and trees, and running in all directions. It was unfettered and roamed freely, teasing butterflies for a while, chasing bees for a while,
As long as it wants, it can go to the end of the world, as long as it wants, it can grow long hair.
