I have been accompanying Hui Gen'er for three days. This kid came out of school without the restrictions of two teachers. He is like a little bird out of its cage, flying happily. His biggest hobby every day is to pester her. I buy him clothes.
I would definitely not be reluctant to buy clothes for Hui Gener, but we would argue every time. I really can’t appreciate those pants with big crotches and big legs, and I also instinctively reject those colorful clothes and shoes, but I will definitely lose in the end. It's me, I can't stand that kid's grinding.
In these three days, Brother Chengxin also returned to normal, and the gentle smile hung on his face again. He was very calm, but spoke very little. He just stopped drinking. I didn't ask him if he really gave up. Or let it go, I know some pain takes time.
On the morning of the third day, I was going to Master Liu's place, and Hui Gen'er asked Brother Chengxin to take him shopping. This boy loves shopping more than women, and then the two of them got in my car.
In the car, we were discussing what to have for breakfast, because Hui Gen'er is a vegetarian. We originally agreed on soy milk and fried dough sticks, but when passing by a street, I found a cake shop that opened early. They were probably baking cakes. The aroma It actually filled half the street.
I parked the car on the street and said to Hui Gen'er: "Wait, I will buy you a cake to eat." In my memory, Hui Gen'er's favorite food was cake, but after so many years, I have forgotten this Something happened. The smell of the cake today reminded me of this incident again.
But as soon as I finished my words, I regretted it. I suddenly remembered that at that time, a little guy cried and told me that he would never eat cake again.
Could it be that too much time has passed and I have forgotten so many specific pains, and the only thought left in my mind is to find Master
Sure enough, before I could take back my words, I heard Hui Gen'er's calm voice coming from the back seat of the car: "Brother, I don't want to eat. When I smell that smell, I want to cry."
I started the car in silence. For a moment, the three people in the car felt a little sad, as if they had returned to the bamboo forest house more than five years ago, when we cried loudly and were immersed in sadness.
The first person to break the silence was Brother Chengxin. He said to Huigen'er: "Actually, it doesn't have anything to do with the cake. You can eat it if you want. You are from the Buddhist sect, and your requirements for cultivating your mind are stricter than those of us Taoists. , don’t become obsessed with it.”
Hui Gen'er said: "I also know that it has nothing to do with the cake, but I'm afraid that after I eat the cake, when I look back, I have lost another important person."
I didn't speak from beginning to end. This heartache would really involve many things. Just like for so many years, I never dared to go back to Zhulin Xiaozhu.
---------Dividing line----------
I came to Master Liu again. As for Brother Chengxin and Huigen'er, they had already gone shopping. After all, after so much time, we have learned to adjust our mood immediately whenever we feel sad.
There was only Master Liu in the whole building. After I sat down, I asked out of concern: "Master Liu, have everything been settled? Where is your daughter?"
"The matter is settled. As for Zhenmeng, she went shopping. She can't sit still these days. She thinks this house is too depressing. She asked me to buy a house, saying she wanted to live in a prosperous place." Master Liu said helplessly. said laughingly.
"Then will you buy it?" I was very curious, how would Master Liu handle this matter in only two years.
"Buy it. As long as she is happy and as long as I can afford it, I will do it for her." Speaking of this matter, Master Liu's eyes were full of soft doting. I believe Liu Zhenmeng wants stars. If Master Liu can do something about it, , will pick them for her.
But this kind of pampering, okay? I frowned slightly, but I can't dictate other people's household affairs.
After a pause, I asked: "Master Liu, can you tell me about Kunlun now?"
Master Liu smiled and took out a notebook from the drawer, handed it to me, and said: "Before I talk about Kunlun, I want to give you this first. This is what I have compiled in the past few days. Your master's connections "Relationship, after reading it carefully and over again, there should be nothing missing."
I took the notebook and opened a page. There was indeed very detailed information on it. It not only provided the person's name, age, and where they lived, but also a description of the relationship with my master. This was indeed very helpful to me.
But this is not the place to look at it in detail. I just scanned a page and put the book down.
Master Liu explained to me: "There are several people here who are hard to find. Their level in our cultivator world should be called earth immortals. Maybe you really want to go to Kunlun. The most important thing is The clue is in them.”
"What about the clues you gave me? Why don't you tell me your clues to get on the Kunlun Road?" I was a little confused.
"Of course, I won't deceive you. It's just that there are too many uncertainties about this clue of mine, and it's very difficult to do it. If one day you follow this clue to no avail, you can try these Connections." Master Liu said to me.
"I will." In fact, if possible, I don't want to go find the people in these books. After all, they are all people my master knows. I don't want to trouble them. The first reason is to protect the master's face. , after all, what’s the point of a disciple asking his acquaintances and friends for help? The second is to keep the master’s disappearance a secret. After all, this name after Kunlun is too dangerous in the industry.
"Okay then, I will tell you eight words first. These eight words are the most important clues I will tell you. If you want to find Kunlun, you must first find Penglai." Master Liu said to me very seriously These eight words didn't sound like a joke at all.
But my eyes widened. I thought Master Liu was joking. One Kunlun was enough to cause a headache, but why did Penglai appear as well? Isn’t Penglai the legendary fairy island? Where can I find it
My expression obviously betrayed me. Master Liu sighed and said: "Don't be fooled by the legend. Sometimes the legend peels off the skin, which is not so magical! My ancestors once said that the shortest way to return to Kunlun is This is the best way, find Penglai first."
"But how can I find Penglai?" Yes, I agree not to be blinded by legends. Since Kunlun may exist, why can't Penglai exist? The crux of the problem is that I don’t know much about Penglai at all, worse than Kunlun.
"The specific thing is this. I don't know if you have heard of such a legend. Our country has discovered mysterious floating islands several times, but they cannot be detected using advanced scientific instruments! They appear occasionally, but they also disappear suddenly. "Originally, this news was top secret. The reason why it spread out several times and became legends is because they were seen by ordinary people, and the news spread." Master Liu told me calmly.
At that time, the Internet had just emerged. Information was far less developed than modern times, and the spread of legends was also very limited geographically. Obviously I had never heard of these legends, but my breathing became faster. If As for the floating island, compared with the ethereal Kunlun, it is indeed much more realistic. I asked uncertainly: "Master Liu, do you mean...?"
"Yes, what I mean is obvious. Don't be blinded by the legend. The floating island is Penglai." Master Liu said to me firmly.
"But how should I find those floating islands? How can you be so sure?" I asked with a slight frown.
"I am so sure that my father told me. This is a secret passed down from generation to generation in our family, because I told you that our ancestors are Kunlun people, and the source of this news comes from him. As for how to find the floating island "It's hard for me to answer this question for you. I'm afraid you will spend half your life in the rivers and lakes, and there may be no results. Maybe if you are lucky, you will have results in a few years." Master Liu said to me.
"But the problem is, with such a vast ocean and so many rivers in the world, I have to have a specific clue, right?" I frowned.
"Of course, I won't let you search so blindly, and I will give you clues." Master Liu said to me with a smile.
I have to admit that the clues Master Liu got here are the most meaningful clues I have gotten in so many years. I finally found a clear direction for the future road to Kunlun!
