The years I was a birdman

Chapter 334 Journey to Reality
From that day on, Zhang Shifei forgot a lot of things, and no one mentioned it to him again.

Early the next morning, Li Lanying and Liu Ling, who were hungover, went to Yuxi, and saw Zhang Shifei sitting there leaning on a bamboo tree, looking up at the sky, as if he was thinking about something.

The good news is that after he noticed that the two were coming, he turned his head and smiled slightly at them. In his eyes, the confusion had disappeared, replaced by a touch of calm, just like the water of the Yuxi River near him. Wind, no waves.

Seeing that Zhang Shifei seemed to have recovered, Li Lanying ran over quickly, then looked Zhang Shifei up and down, and found that he was now the same as before except for his weak body, pale complexion, and the eye-catching black mark on his face. Generally the same.

This is really miraculous, Li Lanying excitedly turned her head and knocked on Liu Ling, Liu Ling saw the small wine bottle next to Zhang Shifei at a glance, the cork had been pulled out, it was obvious that Zhang Shifei had already drank the contents of the bottle, so , he nodded to Li Lanying.

Knowing that Zhang Shifei had already drank the 'wine of forgetting', Li Lanying felt mixed feelings. He was happy that he was no longer in pain seeing him like this, but worried that he was really afraid that Zhang Shifei would even forget him. up.

Therefore, Li Lanying pointed at herself tremblingly, and then asked the right and wrong: "Do you remember who I am?"

Zhang Shifei nodded calmly, and said, "Of course."

Li Lanying pointed to Liu Ling again, and then asked, "Then do you remember who he is?"

"Drunk Liu." Zhang Shifei glanced at Liu Ling, and then replied.

Seeing that Zhang Shifei still remembered them, Li Lanying felt relieved, he thought for a while, and then asked Zhang Shifei: "Then...then do you still remember how you got here? "

"I have no impression." Zhang Shifei replied softly.

Obviously, Zhang Shifei's current state is what Li Lanying hopes most. It seems that the bottle of 'forgetting wine' is really effective. He has already forgotten the most painful thing, but has he really forgotten it?

So, Li Lanying gritted her teeth, and then asked, "Then what do you remember?"

"I remember..." Zhang Shifei smiled weakly, and then said to Li Lanying, "I don't know, I seem to have a long, long dream."

Zhang Shifei had indeed forgotten. He told Li Lanying that for some reason, his memory had become very blurred. Things that seemed to have happened before had also been confused with dreams. Except for him, Fu Zetang, and two old guys , all the memories have become illusory and real, for some reason, he has no strength to distinguish the authenticity of these vague memories, he vaguely remembers, as if there is a woman waiting for him in the distance, other than that, Then I don't remember anything.

Li Lanying couldn't help being overjoyed after hearing his somewhat contradictory words. Although he was overjoyed but also a little sentimental, Zhang Shifei had already forgotten everything about Xu Ying and Liang Yun'er. For him, was it luck or misfortune? Woolen cloth?
Perhaps for a person who is a phantasy body, forgetting love is not a bad thing.

Of course, Li Lanying had no time to think about that problem at that time. As long as Zhang Shifei was no longer in pain, the rest of the matter was irrelevant to him, so he relaxed and hugged Zhang Shifei , his good friend is already healed, and everything has disappeared with that bottle of wine.

Li Lanying pulled Zhang Shifei to stand up, and then walked back. Such great news should be known to Chen Tuan, but Liu Ling was not in a hurry to leave, waiting for Zhang Shifei and Li Lanying to go far away. After that, he came under the bamboo tree, bent down and picked up the small wine bottle. Suddenly, Liu Ling looked at the wine bottle in his hand with a thoughtful look, and heaved a long sigh.

Seeing that Zhang Shifei had recovered, Chen Tuan didn't say anything, and after he recovered, Liu Ling didn't stay in the hut in the forest, but returned to his residence and continued to live a life of drinking all day long. Now that he has forgotten all his emotions, but he is not in a hurry to return to the human world, he told Li Lanying that he wants to stay here for a while longer.

Li Lanying originally wanted to go back quickly. After all, Mr. Cui was still looking forward to their return, but ever since they decided to give Zhang Shifei a drink to forget, Li Lanying always felt that she owed him a little. Even though it was a last resort to do so, he couldn't let it go, and when he thought about it, the time in Yingzhou was much faster than that in the human world. Even if he stayed here for a year or so, the human world was nothing but It took a day or two, so he agreed to Zhang Shifei, and the two stayed.

Zhang Shifei has indeed changed. From that day on, he became quieter, not as flamboyant as before. Although he still joked with Li Lanying, Li Lanying still noticed his change. He slept very late and woke up. It was very early again, and the most he did during the day was staring at the sky in a daze, as if he was thinking about something.

Li Lanying asked several times, but he just said softly and perfunctorily, it's nothing, he just thinks this day is very beautiful.

Li Lanying wondered what was so interesting about the sky, he also raised his head and looked at the sky, but he found that there was nothing to see here at all, it was barely blue, not even a sun.

day!Could this be a side effect of that bottle of 'forgetting wine'!Could it be because the medicine was too strong and made him stupid?

Li Lanying couldn't let it go, so she went to find Liu Ling secretly, but Liu Ling, an old guy, was drinking all the time and talking nonsense, looking crazy, as if he was drinking As if drunk, Li Lanying had no choice but to ask Chen Tuan. Chen Tuan looked outside the room at Zhang Shifei who was staring at the sky in a daze. After thinking for a while, he said to Li Lanying: "He should still be confused. Let's wait and see what happens." Bar."

This wait-and-see situation, half a month passed.

Gradually, Li Lanying also got used to Zhang Shifei's appearance, because now he likes to be in a daze, the rest is the same as before, but the number of times he talks and jokes with Li Lanying has become less.

After a long time, Li Lanying felt a little bored, so he left Zhang Shifei to be in a daze by himself, while he wandered around in this land of Yingzhou all day long. The land of Yingzhou is big or small, so the scenery naturally doesn't need much He said that he traveled all day long, and in his spare time, he spent time drinking with Liu Ling. Drinking was boring, so he sold a deck of poker with tree bark and taught Liu Ling to play. In the end, he also attracted Then Chen Tuan came together, one person and two gods, and the whole people began to fight against landlords. Fighting is meaningless, so what are you going to bet on? Li Lanying said betting on honey, Chen Tuan said betting on sleeping, and Liu Ling said betting on undressing, If you lose one, you get one, and if you double, you get two.

How can I do that? Li Lanying looked at these two old and cunning guys. He felt that if these two old guys had hair, they would be smarter than monkeys. Compared with Liu Ling, who can take off their clothes, who can be as shameless as him Shameless?So I had to let this matter go, the two old brands are very bad, and they are not very right in the first place, sometimes they will be red-faced because of a single card. Rush to Russia, but such a ruckus has also passed some boring time.

Over time, Zhang Shifei was ignored.

And he still looks like that, going to sleep every night and waking up early before the sky is bright. After getting up, he will go to the bank of the Yuxi River, eat some bamboo shoots to satisfy his hunger, and drink the water from the Yuquan when he is thirsty. Fortunately, although the things of the fairy family have no taste, they have infinite magical effects. You don't have to worry about malnutrition and you can strengthen your body. After half a month, Zhang Shifei's body has completely recovered, but the bruises on his face That mark, no matter how you wash it, can't be washed off, it's like a brand mark, but he doesn't seem to care much, if no one bothers him, he can sit by the stream for a day.

But what he was thinking, he never told anyone until that day.

That day, as usual, he was sitting by the edge of Yuxi, looking up at the sky. The clouds changed surprisingly, moving with the wind without stopping. The slight sound of footsteps brought Zhang Shifei back to his senses, and subconsciously said softly, "Dad..."

In the bamboo grove, Chen Tuan was taken aback for a moment, gave a secret praise in his heart, and then walked out, yawning and cursing at Zhang Shifei with a smile: "Okay boy, you've got a lot of skills, how did you guess it will be?" Is it me?"

Zhang Shifei smiled slightly, and then he didn't turn his head back. He just continued to look at the sky and said, "I don't know. Ever since I couldn't tell the color from my words, my heart has become quieter. When I heard footsteps just now, I thought it was you, but I didn't expect to be fooled by me."

Chen Tuan clicked his lips, and then walked to his side, without any scruples, lying on the ground with his hands behind his head, with his legs crossed, he naturally understood in his heart that it was definitely not as simple as guessing, look Come on, after this catastrophe, Zhang Zhang is not without waiting, at least his current Taoism is much better than before, but even though he thought so, he didn't say it out, only saw him laughing: "Your boy , The guess is quite accurate."

Zhang Shifei smiled lightly, and then asked Chen Tuan casually, "Father, why didn't you play cards with them today?"

"Don't mention it." Chen Tuan seemed to be very upset and replied: "Since I met that landlord, I have less time to sleep. I lost badly yesterday. What did the little fat man say, ah yes, I was depressed, so I went out for a stroll, and found a secluded place to catch up on sleep, by the way, why don't you go play?"

Zhang Shifei sighed, and then said calmly: "I don't want to play, I just want to see the day."

"Oh?" Chen Tuan was lying on the ground, looking at the clouds in the sky, and then he said to the right and wrong: "Then tell me, what does the sky look like in your eyes?"

For Chen Tuan, Zhang Shifei was full of respect in his heart. He knew that although the old guy was usually out of tune, he was a person with great wisdom, so after thinking about it, he said softly: "The clouds are beautiful, but they are not beautiful. will stay, I don't know what their real shape is."

Chen Tuan smiled, and he said to Zhang Shifei, "So you just keep looking at them?"

Zhang Shifei nodded, and then said: "Yes, I tried to find their real appearance, but these days I found that they are changing all the time, and their shapes never repeat, making people unpredictable .”

Chen Tuan cocked his legs, he seemed to understand something, but he still casually said to Zhang Shifei: "Of course they are unpredictable, clouds are inherently impermanent, if you can figure them out, then they are not clouds, but in other words Come back, you want to blindly search for their true appearance, is it necessary?"

Is it necessary?

Zhang Shifei pondered for a while, then lowered his head, and said, "Father, I've thought about it for a long time, but there's still one thing I can't figure out."

Chen Tuan rubbed his eyes, and then said to Zhang Shifei: "What is it, tell me and listen."

Zhang Shifei sighed, and then said to Chen Tuan: "In my memory, there seems to be a monster who spent all his life looking for the reincarnation of his beloved, but in the end it still didn't get it. Good end, why is that?"

Chen Tuan smiled, then turned over, turned his back to Zhang Shifei and said, "Shou Sui flowers bloom, seasons are different, don't you still understand this question?"

Shou Sui flowers bloom, seasons are different, Zhang Shifei has heard this sentence before, he remembered, "Shou Sui" refers to those purple grasses on the periphery of Yingzhou, they only have one year to live, it is a sign of Yingzhou counting years , this kind of grass does not bloom when it is alive. For them, flowering means death.

And the next day, they will dry up, so a new batch of "Shou Sui" will start to grow, and continue the same fate. Back then, Zhang Shifei felt a little pity when he saw the flowers blooming so beautifully. Fortunately, they will continue to reopen at the same time tomorrow.

However, Chen Tuan told them that next year even though there will be another sea of ​​flowers here, next year's flowers will not be the same as this year's flowers.

Next year's flowers are not this year's flowers.

Zhang Shifei thought of this, and suddenly remembered something. The story of Ranxi, the guy in black, also changed the four seasons in front of it. The grass from flourishing to withering is a reincarnation, but , will the newly grown grass be the same as before?

Zhang Shifei was stunned, and he kept muttering: "If it's over, won't you come back?"

"Yes?" I saw that Chen Tuan seemed to be in an uncomfortable posture, so he turned back again, pillowed his palms, looked at the sky and murmured: "It's over, and it will never come back. The flowers you see have faded, that means your fate is over, even if you will see the same flowers next year, it won’t be the same as last year, right?”

Epiphany.

Zhang Shifei finally understood why the sound of Ranxi was so tragic. It was because it was so persistent that it lost its way. In fact, the yellow hat had already told it its future ending, but at that time it There is no room for other things in her eyes, so she is doomed to her future fate.

Flowers bloom and wither, people die and reincarnate, they are all the same. Flowers have their re-blooming day, but they are not the flowers they saw back then.

It turns out that there really is such a power in the dark. This power is called fate. The fate between Ranxi and Feng Tianyang is over. Even if it finds Feng Tianyang's reincarnation, it can't find the feeling at that time, because after the reincarnation Feng Tianyang is no longer Feng Tianyang, no matter his character, appearance, or age, he is another person.

It turned out that at the moment Feng Tianyang died, Ranxi was completely lost, lost his lover, lost this short-term fate, in fact, sometimes, emotion is indeed a very troublesome thing, the shorter the thing , The more we want to have it again, so attachment arises, so the sea of ​​suffering knows no bounds.

Zhang Shifei pondered for a long time, only to see that Chen Tuan yawned and said: "The flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water will never come back after passing. Instead of touching the mirror to catch the moon, it is better to keep this scene in your heart. Did you say so?"

Zhang Shifei was silent, and what Chen Tuan said made him suddenly enlightened. People are often very contradictory creatures. The happiness experienced will be forgotten soon, but the pain suffered can be remembered for a lifetime. What about blind pursuit?

Zhang Shifei finally figured it out. Although all these principles had appeared in his wild imagination, he didn't know the reason at that time, but today, he figured it out. It turned out to be like this.

Zhang Shifei smiled bitterly, then turned his head, looked at Chen Tuan, and said softly: "Father, I still don't understand what a human life is, and why should human attachments exist?" significance?"

Seeing Zhang Shifei asking him, Chen Tuan sighed, stretched his waist and sat up, then yawned and said to Zhang Shifei: "Everyone has a different understanding of the question you asked, so I can't forcefully lose my understanding to you, so let's go and understand it yourself."

"What should I do?" Zhang Shifei asked blankly.

That Chen Tuan smiled, and then said to him: "Diagram of Reality, haven't you finished walking before, and now, it's time for you to get what you should have."

The picture of reality is a treasure in Yingzhou, and its source is as unknown as Chen Tuan and Liu Ling. As the name suggests, since reality is real, it is said that this picture contains the truth between heaven and earth. But they didn't know that, in their eyes, the Reality Map was just the last test before going home.

Now that time has passed, Zhang Shifei, who drank the wine of forgetfulness, felt a little nervous when he heard that Chen Tuan asked him to enter the Reality Map again, because he vaguely felt that this painting might bring him a complete change, and he wanted to When he was in Harbin, in the dream of the magpie, Zhang Shifei also saw a scene similar to the reality map. He didn't know why it was at the beginning, but now that he thinks about it, all the mysteries may be solved soon.
