The vegetation on the hillside was verdant, and three incense candles were inserted on the ground, and the light smoke was blown away by the breeze as soon as it rose.
The sun is slanting.
Jiang He covered his forehead with his hands, looked up at the sky slightly, and the scenes of thousands of years ago flashed before his eyes, followed by everything in the modern steel city.
A trance of time and space disorder rose from her body. Xu Qing watched from the side, feeling that her silhouette became erratic at a certain moment, as if she was far away, but also very close.
Can people who do not belong to this time and space really stay here for a long time
Xu Qing subconsciously reached out and held her arm on her knee. Jiang He glanced sideways and smiled at him.
This smile made Xu Qing heave a sigh of relief, the strange feeling just now disappeared.
The two squatted on the ground, watching the incense burn slowly.
Her village at that time has now turned into a small slope, with stone steps winding up in the distance, and a little farther away, modern buildings stand on the flat land, which looks like a farmhouse.
He closed his eyes, only the soft rustle of the breeze blowing through the grass was in his ears, time seemed to go backwards at this moment, a large area of yellow land and thatched huts, sparse crops, people in broken clothes, dirty arms and cheeks, and A woman in a straw hat.
Xu Qing was in a daze for a moment, as if he saw a group of people chatting and laughing here, swallowing black pancakes, the woman looked at him from a distance, and nodded slightly.
Open your eyes, the breeze and weeds are still there, Jiang He's past and memories are buried under this land.
"Let's go."
Jiang He stood up, clapped his hands, and let out a long breath, as if he had fulfilled some wish.
"Wait until it burns out." Xu Qing pointed to the incense candle that was still smoking, "If it burns after we leave, you will be arrested."
"It seems that you ordered it?"
"You plugged it in."
"You bought it."
"... Anyway, they were arrested together."
Jiang He laughed, and lay on his back, wrapping his arms around Xu Qing, shaking him slightly.
"What do you think would have happened if I hadn't come?"
"Probably... you will be hacked to death someday. I am leisurely in the modern age, drinking Coke and watching dramas. When the mice and the others are married, I find out that I should find a girlfriend too... um... and then forced by the old man pressure, find a serious job, go on a blind date, or meet someone who is compatible.”
"I won't be hacked to death, only I will kill others." Jiang He looked into the distance and said, "Maybe I will meet a rich family."
"Then buried with him and then dug out?"
"You don't even know it's me when you dig it out."
"We don't know each other?"
"How could we know each other?"
"That's too boring."
Talking and laughing, the joss stick burned slowly, the burnt ashes on the top were blown off by the wind, and the bottom was wet for a while because of the wet ground.
When the incense candles were naturally extinguished, Xu Qing stood up with Jiang He on his back, turned around in place, and looked around.
"Master, I took Jiang He and ran away!"
"You're going to die!" Jiang He pinched him.
Xu Qing laughed and ran down the hillside. Jiang He was not heavy, and the backpack hanging on his chest was not too heavy, so there was no pressure on him at all.
That small village in Gusu...
From now on it only exists in memory.
…
Xu Qing originally thought that Jiang He would be sad, but she didn't expect her to adjust very quickly.
Just like on the first day in Suzhou, I was a little lost on the road, but I recovered my mind after getting off the car.
"Crying doesn't do anything, so you don't have to expect that if you make me angry in the future, I will cry for you like those stupid women on TV. I will just beat you up and make you cry."
"Let's scholars have to be reasonable."
"Who is a scholar with you?"
Sitting on the subway, Jiang He threatened him with a ferocious expression, "What you are saying is not reasonable, you are just lying."
This person, always thinking about ruining her body before marriage, is uneasy and kind, maybe if he gets it, he will dislike her, and then he will have to beat him up.
The subway was galloping forward, and the next car suddenly became noisy, as if something was going on.
The two turned their heads to look at the past at the same time, and then looked at each other.
"Is the zombie virus going to break out?" Jiang He excitedly prepared to run away with Xu Qing on his shoulders. She had seen such a situation before.
It doesn't matter if the big long sword is not with you. In the early stage of the outbreak, there are not so many dangerous zombies. As long as you run fast, you can use it casually on the ground. If you want to escape or fight, you can move forward and retreat flexibly.
"Why do you think of zombies?" Xu Qing was puzzled.
"This situation is so similar to the movie... You, me, the couple, the couple over there, and the one with a big belly, and then we will run together."
The golden configuration of the movie was found by Jiang He one by one, which surprised Xu Qing. Her understanding of the movie seems to be pretty good.
"..."
"Then the zombies in the next car rushed over." Jiang He continued to perfect the script.
"It's a pity that you don't want to be a director." Xu Qing clicked his tongue and whispered to Jiang He.
I don't know what happened to the farce in the next car. Anyway, after the next stop, there was another wave of noise. The zombie Jiang He was expecting did not happen. After all, it was all a movie.
Another group of people came up, Xu Qing hugged Jiang He and leaned over there, listening to other people's chatting, from a few words, it seemed that someone was about to jump out of the car.
amazing.
Xu Qing felt the wonder of human beings.
The heroine knows that the subway will crush her to death. With such a big car, no gold bell cover or iron cloth shirt will work well.
"Next, we should go shopping around."
"where to play?"
"Jianchi, you should like it."
Xu Qing thinks that female heroes like swords so much, so they should like Jianchi.
Hearing the name, he thought it was a place where countless swords were kept, just like the "Sword Pond" in the novel. There are all kinds of swords in the pool. The disciples come to choose the sword, the spiritual sword chooses the master, chooses each other, and then the protagonist passes by , the peerless fierce sword who has not moved for hundreds of thousands of years is excited, and wants to follow the protagonist with a shameless face.
As a result, I took a look, oh, it turned out that the shape of the pool was like a sword.
Two people bought tickets, each for 40, Xu Qing vigorously pulled Jiang He straight to the target.
There are four big characters on the round arch, "There is a hole in the sky". When you go in, you can see two stone cliffs rising from the ground, with a pool of green water in the middle.
"this one?"
Xu Qing was lost for a moment, then looked at Jiang He, "Is it like this before?"
Jiang He pouted, feeling that Xu Qing was as stupid as a howling donkey, "Who paid to watch this before."
"...this is the power of time."
Xu Qing finally figured it out. The places of interest that people are interested in now, in the eyes of Jiang He's people at that time, were broken stones and houses on the side of the road.
Just like he thinks his community is old and small, if it can be preserved for thousands of years before a big person emerges, it will be a place of interest and historic sites, and there will be many people watching his place, and even the dilapidated winter melon nest will become a scenic spot. maybe.
"If you were put in a museum, with one hundred yuan a ticket to see Kaiyuan people, countless people, even foreign devils, would come across the ocean to see you. It has nothing to do with whether it is broken or not."
It is necessary for Xu Qing to explain that this is not an IQ tax, but a difference caused by different environments. Jiang He is a place where things are broken, but it is actually a famous scenic spot now.
And the parks that modern people regard as broken places seem very beautiful to her, and she likes them very much.
"You're the bumpkin."
Jiang He flicked the broken hair on his forehead, remembering that Xu Qing had treated him like a bumpkin, but in fact, the circumstances of the two were reversed, and Xu Qing was also a bumpkin.
This means that the two of them are equal.
It's still in the museum... Jiang He's big eyes rolled a few times in their sockets, thinking of some reason to compete with him and teach Xu Qing about his kung fu.
The money has already been spent, so it cannot be wasted. Although it is a sunk cost to spend time looking at things that you are not interested in, the stupid Xu Qing always thinks that you should look more, otherwise not only this trip to Suzhou is not perfect, but the future Wherever I want to play, I feel a little bit wrong.
Jiang He didn't feel much about the places of interest, so what else could he see? Only traveling in mountains and rivers...
This has to be carefully considered. Now many scenic spots are historic sites, and if they are removed, a large part of things to play will be lost.
The 40 yuan ticket for Jianchi is not only a Jianchi, but also Broken Beam Hall, Hanhan Spring, Sword Test Stone, Tiger Hill Pagoda...
After watching the sword pond, Xu Qing went straight to the sword-testing stone, which was his second goal here.
The sword-testing stone is just a broken stone, and you can see the marks cut by others on it.
The afternoon sun slanted down, covering the stone with a layer of warm color.
Jiang He just took a glance and was not interested. He turned his head to look elsewhere, but felt Xu Qing looking over.
"What's wrong?" She felt that Xu Qing's eyes were a little weird.
"Don't you take a closer look?"
"What's so interesting about this?"
"I heard that by observing other people's sword marks, martial arts masters can figure out the sword's intent from them..."
"Yes, yes, it can still be stimulated. Thousands of sword lights are flying around, which is equivalent to a full blow from a peerless master." Next to him, a second-year middle school young man like Xu Qing was taking pictures and arguing.
"If you have high comprehension and can learn the swordsmanship of the swordsman, your skill will go further."
"That depends on what the person who left the sword mark was thinking at the time. The sword mark is different from the sword mark..."
"..."
Jiang He watched the two guys chatting excitedly, thinking that this was a fairy world.
As an expert like her, she can't see anything, but the two rookies can speak clearly and clearly.
"Maybe there is a set of swordsmanship in it."
"If you can realize it, it will be great!" Xu Qing patted the man's shoulder, "Brother, come on!"
"Please be normal." Jiang He said indifferently.
Xu Qing and the boy looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time: "Woman."
Click it!
Xu Qing's expression froze.
The boy looked around curiously: "What sound? What sound? Did you hear it?"
"The sound of kung fu."
Xu Qing pointed to the Jianshi seriously, "I have no destiny with it, so let's just say goodbye."
After finishing speaking, Xu Qing dragged Jiang He away.
"Is there really no sword intent?"
"No."
"Inner strength?"
"No."
"Collecting yin and nourishing... ah!"
Jiang He was so angry that he thumped him, he taught everything that should be taught, what else did he want
As a martial arts fan, Xu Qing has never forgotten his true heart. Although it looks stupid, it was his teenage dream, and now the dream is shattered.
Martial arts masters like Jiang He say they have no sword intent, so they really don't have sword intent.
The sword is only used for cutting people. How to cut more powerfully, stab more accurately, and cut faster is kung fu.
The 80 yuan ticket was a waste, the sword pool was just a pool, there was no sword intent on the sword test stone, and the other two were not interested, so they just took a few photos and sent them to Zhou Suzhi for a look, and then they went back to their place of residence.
Coming out of the places of interest, looking at the traffic on the road and the shops on both sides, Xu Qing's heart slowly calmed down.
Normal life is fine.
For Jiang He, scenic spots and historic sites are far less favorite than a street of snacks.
In the next two days, Xu Qing took her to walk around the streets, eat and drink everywhere, and strolled around the park, like a normal person living in Suzhou, without going to the scenic spots.
The two walked on the brightly lit streets, leaving their shadows everywhere in this strange city.
Three or five girls surrounded the two boys, amidst the sound of laughter and cheering, jingle music rang out.
Xu Qing and the heroine are like a couple of ordinary couples. See where the fun is getting together. They trap a few exquisite keychains and chains. Jiang He is going to take them back to Pingping as gifts.
"Wait for me to smash one for you." Xu Qing and Jiang He watched for a while, and he was eager to try, feeling that the percussion devices played by these male and female students were just right for him.
With a punch, as long as the firing pin reaches the top, a gift will fall out.
Jiang He put his hands in his pockets, shrugged and said nothing, looking at them with interest.
The two boys had tried their best, but they hadn't hit the top yet, and they were competing with each other who was stronger. The girls were singing and talking, and they had just taken two steps away when they heard a loud bang.
Turning around, I saw the girl who had just been watching retracted her hand and put her pocket again. The man next to her went to get the gift that fell out. Looking at the machine again, the music of the machine had changed, and it seemed to be a record-breaking sound.
"..."
"..."
The two passed by them leisurely, Xu Qing Xiaoniao leaned on Jiang He's shoulder and praised her.
A few female students watched them go away in a daze, and set their eyes on the two boys.
The two boys were devastated.
What the hell!
"Want to play that?"
Seeing the trampoline, Jiang He's eyes lit up, and he pointed at it. Xu Qing hurriedly grabbed her, "It's for children, for children!"
He was afraid that Jiang He would hit his head on the roof.
"Let's go gopher hunting." He had a handful of coins waiting to be spent in his pocket.
Jiang He likes this kind of life. For her, visiting a modern city is like visiting a historic site for modern people. It is fresh and exciting.
"Take it easy, don't break other people's machines."
Jiang He took the hammer to test his hand, and Xu Qing took the trouble to instruct him.
Coming here, Jiang He felt like coming home. If she had such a big sister playing with her when she was young, it would be so cool.
Now it's like having a daughter... It's also a good feeling.
He was already looking forward to a happy childhood for two children. Having such a mother was almost invincible.
