Mountains and seas close at hand

You can embrace love by raising your hand, how can you miss it because of hesitation.

The next step is happiness, who wants to stay where it is?

What humans fear most is never death.The fear of all kinds of dangers is nothing more than being alone, facing alone, helpless, and no one understands me...

What humans fear most is loneliness.

It is enough to destroy the most fearless warrior, pollute the most holy soul, and crush the most tenacious will.

Similarly, it can also give people the courage to put all their eggs in one basket.

After all, no one wants to be alone.

If this is just a dream, Bai Xunhua is willing to sleep in it and never wake up again.

"Honey." Song Banyan kissed her cheek, "Wake up."

Bai Xunhua immediately opened his eyes and looked at her with a sober expression.

Song Banyan sighed inwardly, with a gentle smile on his face: "I'm sorry, I woke you up. Ju Mugu sent me a message, saying that he went to the jade market to pick some stones and let me see them Look. Dear leader, do you approve?"

Bai Xunhua closed his eyes lazily, curled his head and chuckled.It's like having a bar of liqueur chocolate in your mouth.The slightly bitter chocolate has not yet completely melted, the thin and crisp icing is inadvertently bitten, the cherries burst out in vain, and the rich liqueur instantly swept through the mouth and rushed straight to the forehead.

It's so intoxicating, you can't help but want to smile.

Song Banyan looked at her, licked his lips subconsciously, and leaned over.It felt like a piece of malt candy stuck to his mouth.Can't speak, don't want to talk, just want to keep licking, just want to melt her.

Bai Xunhua hugged the quilt to escape, pinched her cheek and said, "Aren't you going to see jade?"

Song Banyan smiled without saying a word, and stuck out his tongue to touch her palm.Bai Xunhua was caught off guard and hurriedly withdrew his hand.She paused, frowned and said seriously: "Looking at jade is not an important thing, you should take a good rest and recuperate."

Song Banyan lay beside her and chuckled softly: "I understood Miss Bai's meaning early on, and I rejected him just now."

Bai Xunhua snorted softly when he heard the words, and couldn't help raising the corners of his lips.Leaning on the pillow and staring at the person in front of her: the shining light in her eyes is like the summer sun shining through the vines and reflected in the sea of ​​jelly.

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" ①

Song Banyan tilted his head in confusion: "Huh?"

Bai Xunhua shook his head slightly with a broken smile, slapped away a dishonest paw, and sat up hugging the quilt.Song Banyan turned over and lay on the bed, then sat up and hugged her from behind.Resting his head on Bai Xunhua's shoulder, he tilted his head and nibbled on her jaw.

Bai Xunhua raised his hand to rub her ears, and said helplessly, "Banyan, do you have skin hunger?"

"what is that?"

"Is there something you don't know?" Bai Xunhua feared that her hair would get pulled on the wound, so she tucked her hair behind her ears.

"Well, there are many things I don't know. I didn't know that I liked you so much, and I couldn't extricate myself from it." Song Banyan buried his face in her neck and rubbed and bit, jokingly said: "I don't know how to let you How can you feel safe if you ignore Ji Bao?"

The topic didn't continue, Song Banyan said almost immediately: "It's past two o'clock now, and you haven't eaten lunch, it's not good for your stomach. I'll go and heat up the food first, can you get up later and eat some? "

Bai Xunhua pursed her lips and smiled: "I don't feel even more insecure with you like this."

Song Banyan was taken aback for a moment, and raised his eyebrows.Bai Xunhua didn't give her a chance to speak, she reached out to embrace Song Banyan, leaned over and kissed him deeply.

By the time the two sat down to eat in the living room, it was already 04:30 in the afternoon.Just after taking two bites, Maowazi and Chubb knocked on the door.He said that he had booked a shop that roasted whole lamb in a naan pit, and called for them to eat together.

"Mr. Song, this rose roasted whole lamb restaurant is very famous and has a very good reputation."

Song Banyan's heart was moved as soon as he heard it, and he turned to look at Bai Xunhua.

Bai Xunhua said: "Before the wound heals, you can't eat spicy food."

Maowazi laughed quickly: "Sister Bai, I checked on the Internet. Mutton is edible. And the wound is healed, so we need to supplement nutrition."

Bai Xunhua asked: "Is it far?"

Maowazi said, "On the way to the airport, call...Yingbin Road, it's not far."

Bai Xunhua said: "Then can it be changed to noon tomorrow? We have booked a ticket for a quarter past three in the afternoon."

Maowazi nodded: "OK."

After sending Maowazi and Chubu away, the two returned to the table and sat down.Xinjiang cuisine has a strong taste, with heavy meat and oil, and few vegetables.Bai Xunhua picked a piece of tomato and put it in Song Banyan's bowl.

Song Banyan asked: "Are you afraid that someone will come to 'ward rounds'?"

Bai Xunhua raised his eyes and looked at her: "Are you planning to play an empty city plan? One more thing is worse than one less thing. It's better not to take risks. Besides, Ji Bao has already checked it out. If the other party is still there, he will definitely be more vigilant."

"Aren't you curious, who do we have a conflict of interest with?" Song Banyan chewed on the tomato and said thoughtfully, "Could it be my rival in love? Then I am besieged on all sides."

"What nonsense." Bai Xunhua glanced at her reproachfully, and said slowly, "When the major hospitals were unable to detect the cause, I just thought that technology still needs to improve, and we humans are still on the way to understand the world."

She paused, lowered her eyes and said softly, "But ever since you appeared, I feel...sometimes I have to believe in fate."

After Bai Xunhua finished speaking, his face suddenly turned red, and he added a sentence under cover: "I mean, sometimes when thinking about problems, you have to think out of the habit."

Song Banyan smiled considerately: "Enen. So, what does inertial thinking mean?"

Bai Xunhua, who wanted to cover up more and more because of the forced cover-up, had no choice but to go along with her: "The conventional logic and what we think is rational."

Song Banyan looked at her with great interest, and said with a smile: "The other party may have no motive? Or is it not a conventional motive? Well, it is possible. But the most likely motive is to ride the yellow horn."

She licked her lips slowly, and said slowly: "Would you like...Eat it first, and it will be safe."

Bai Xunhua put down his chopsticks and picked up a napkin to wipe the corners of his lips.He said calmly, "You can't eat it directly. Don't you remember the prescription you prescribed? It's just a prescription, but the old pharmacy that dispenses the medicine has already been found. Tomorrow's flight ticket, I booked Hetian to Nanjing."

Song Banyan smiled and said, "Okay, I'm also planning to go to Nanjing."

After the meal, the two of them didn't go anywhere, they packed their luggage slowly in the house.After tidying up, they curled up on the bed, chatting with each other.

It was a leisurely experience like never before.

Bai Xunhua did not expect that the feeling of wasting time would be so wonderful.

Of course, she did not expect Song Banyan to be so clingy.

Fortunately, it is considerate enough.

Dreaming all night, embracing dawn.

A beautiful day begins with opening your eyes and seeing your lover.

Song Banyan hugged Bai Xunhua's waist, humming like a rogue: "I don't want to get up, I don't want to get up, I don't want to get up..."

Bai Xunhua kissed her on the forehead, and coaxed her softly, "You don't want to eat roasted whole lamb anymore?"

Song Banyan smiled and replied, "Although the roast sheep is beautiful, it is far inferior to Qing."

The two lay on the bed for a while, then got up one after another.After all, even if you don't eat roasted whole lamb, you still have to catch the plane.

Dragging the suitcase to go out, I happened to meet Ju Mugu.

"Hi, Miss Song and Miss Bai. Who are you?"

Song Banyan felt that this guy must have sent someone to follow him.But at any rate, we live and die together, so there is really no need to tear our faces.She cheered up and said, "Mr. Orange, what happened suddenly, we have to go back quickly."

Ju Mugu turned pale with shock, and said eagerly: "Miss Song, but our purpose of this trip has not yet been achieved..."

Song Banyan said sternly: "Mr. Ju is cautious. I am also very sorry, but now that the mountains are covered by heavy snow, staying here is not an option. Besides, we really have urgent matters."

Ju Mugu sighed helplessly, knowing that what she said was true.

Bai Xunhua whispered from the side: "Mr. Orange should leave as soon as possible."

As soon as she said this, Ju Mugu couldn't help thinking about it.Thinking of the special police all over the streets in Hetian and the ubiquitous security checks, he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Miss Bai reminded me. I will pack my luggage and leave today."

Seeing that he was scared away, the four looked at each other and smiled.Pleasantly went downstairs to check out and drove away.

Rose Roasted Whole Lamb Restaurant is quite famous in the local area, but fortunately, the group has already reserved a seat.As soon as we sat down, the boss delivered a roasted whole lamb.

Sitting under the grape arbor, eating authentic Nanjiang roasted whole lamb.There are also roasted pigeons, corn rice, and salted meat.The skin of the whole lamb is crispy and tender, the yogurt is alkyd, and the barbecue is tender... Drinking a sip of roselle tea or mint tea with honey is really enjoyable.

Maowazi threw away the leg bone and picked up the rock salt kebab.He glanced left and right while chewing, and when he saw no one, he leaned forward and asked Song Banyan: "Song Daxian, I have been confused about something. Is the place we went that day the tomb of King Zhou Mu?"

His question attracted the attention of Chubu and Bai Xunhua, and the three of them looked at Song Banyan together.

Song Banyan chewed slowly and ate a piece of roast mutton, then raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "Did you see King Zhou Mu's tomb?"

"I saw it." Maowazi quickly changed his words, and said with a puzzled face, "Isn't it... You said it was the tomb of King Khan. Chubu, who is it?"

Ali Arslan's name is still a bit of a mouthful for ordinary people.Where did Chubu remember it? Only Bai Xunhua had a good memory: "King Ali Arslan Khan."

Maowazi nodded again and again: "Yes, that's him."

After he finished speaking, he was taken aback again, why was this King Khan buried there.Song Banyan had already said it, and of course he knew it.But isn't the point about King Zhou Mu?

Maowazi asked persistently: "Then, where did King Mu of Zhou go? Was his grave dug? That big pillar, oh, it's so amazing, it's like a dream. Song Daxian, tell us about it."

Song Banyan didn't talk to her, she just felt a little annoyed—Miss Bai never asked questions like this, endlessly.

She subconsciously glanced sideways at Bai Xunhua.Bai Xunhua was a little confused, but she knew that Song Banyan had always kept things secret.The bronze pillar is so mysterious, but she keeps silent, there must be some reason.

"Half smoke is not really a fairy." Bai Xunhua smoothed things over, "She may not know everything."

Song Banyan nodded along the way: "Well, I can't figure it out either. Tai Chi fainted on the surface, and King Zhou Mu probably wouldn't break the ground and bury it there. The pattern on the bronze pillar tells about King Zhou Mu's westward journey, and it is very likely that someone commemorated it. he.

And it is inlaid with various gemstones, animal bones, weapons... This is not something ordinary people can do.Contact Sangzhu petroglyphs, and the meaning of the word Sangzhu.I think the earliest residents of Sangzhu may be the followers of King Mu of Zhou.As for what exactly happened that year, I can't tell. "

Maowazi nodded speciously, opened his mouth and took a mouthful of mutton skewers, his expression changed like a Sichuan opera——

That's it!

Is that right?

Seems like yes.

Something doesn't feel right?

But there seems to be no other explanation.

Thinking about it again makes sense!

......

Although Chubu was curious about the bronze pillar, what he always thought about was the abnormalities of Song Banyan that night.

Song Banyan, whose face was covered in blood, dragged Miao Zi forward in the hail of bullets.Under the flashing beam of the flashlight, the dagger shone with a chilly light that made people tremble.People who are usually gentle and cheerful have cold eyes.

Raising the knife in his hand, the dagger pierced hard into the flesh.

In an instant, blood spattered!

Chubb couldn't help shivering, and quickly stopped recalling.

I don't know if there was telepathy, but everyone was deeply impressed by that scene.Maowazi slapped his thigh, his eyes lit up immediately, and he asked in a low voice, "Daxian, were you doing something wrong when you poked that guy that day? By the way, there is also the stone that my eldest sister set up!"

Song Banyan fell into deep thought when he heard the words, and after recalling for a while, he slowly said: "We are lucky. The Daling accumulates the aura of corpses, and when the aura is lost, the ghosts will follow. Once the earth mole releases the aura that stirs the earth, it will be a thousand ghosts. ”②

Chubb half understood, and asked curiously, "Are we lucky?"

Song Banyan took a sip of tea: "The ancients had three Nuo a year, Mengchun, Zhongxia, and Jidong. Nuo is a sacrificial ceremony to welcome the gods and drive away evil. The three fixed times mean different functions for different ceremonies. Among them, 'Zhongqiu' , Nine gates to blow off stale qi.'The eighth month of the lunar calendar is Zhongqiu, and using livestock outside the Nine Gates of the Son of Heaven can dispel stale qi." ③

Bai Xunhua listened to what Song Banyan said, and thought to himself: If what Banyan said is true.King Mu of Zhou set up pillars instead of building a tomb. Does that mean that King Mu of Zhou did not see anyone when he was born, and no corpse when he died?

This idea only turned around in her mind, but she didn't say it.

After hearing what Song Banyan said, Maowazi couldn't make up his mind.What's more, he was just curious, so he simply stopped thinking about it and concentrated on eating.

The four ate one after another until 01:30.Song Banyan and Bai Xunhua put down their chopsticks a long time ago, and Maowazi and Chubu both had round stomachs, so they called the boss to pack.

After paying the bill, Maowazi took out the car keys and rattled, and said with a smile, "Didi special car, I'll take you two to the airport."

The author has something to say: ①Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Thou art more lovingly and more temperate.

Can I compare you to the brilliance of summer?

But you are cuter and gentler than it.
