Tomb Raider Gu Tomb Miscellaneous Notes

His voice was weak, as if he blinked, and the person was no longer there.

I took two staggering steps, anxious, fearful and confused: "Censer!"

The incense burner saw that I was going to go, but he wanted to retreat, his body swayed backwards, and he was about to fall down.

He stood among the wreckage on the ground, his face was calm and expressionless.

There was no emotion in the clear eyes.

I was disturbed by his silent gaze.

"Did you find out?" He asked lightly.

I don't know if I should go or not.

Fen Xianglu's eyes moved, and he smiled at me calmly: "You had a memory that was changed when you were a child. It was when you were in Huangyangchuan, and Shen Qianjiu hypnotized you. It's too early to see, Shen Qianjiu wants you to forget that memory in order to make plans for the future. But you obviously only met once, but you have a deep impression on him, Shen Qianjiu is afraid that you will remember it again soon, Just use hypnosis to confuse your memory. After that, I found out that your and Zhang Rui's horoscopes are connected together. "

The incense burner stopped for a moment.

Seeing that I didn't speak, he continued, "I am the one who changed Zhang Rui's horoscope."

I am dumbfounded.

"At first, it was to destroy Shen Qianjiu's plan. You and Zhang Rui's fates are complementary. You are the master and Zhang Rui is the assistant. In the end, Zhang Rui will become the key to Chi You's awakening. Shen Qianjiu arranged the timing for you to meet. But after I changed Zhang Rui's horoscope, Shen Qianjiu found that the original plan would no longer work."

The incense burner smiled wryly.

"When you saw Zhang Rui again when you were eight years old, I knew about it. At that time, you played together every day, you went to his house to break the door, you led him to the neighborhood committee, and you introduced him to your Friends, I know what you have done. No, I saw it.” He looked sad, “I go to that alley every day, and I hide on the eaves every day, watching you go in and out holding hands. ...I was afraid that Shen Qianjiu would attack you, during those days, I didn't dare to sleep at night..."

My heart throbbed, and I tried to make a sound: "The Zhang family is haunted, is it because of you?"

Censer's face was ice-white, and he nodded.

I took a breath: "Master Zhang and Zhang Ci..."

"It was I who poisoned them to death." The incense burner stared at me intently, and sneered, "Master Zhang and Zhang Ci knew about Zhang Rui's abduction back then, and Zhang Ci wanted to gather people to go to Huangyangchuan again. I don’t want you to find out about all this... so I silenced them.”

The last few words are so light, yet so absolute.

I dryly said: "That day, when Fourth Master Jiang wanted to arrest you, did you really want to kill Fourth Master Jiang? You even wanted to silence him?"

Cenxiang Lu was expressionless: "Because he also knew about Zhang Rui's abduction back then, and he even told you."

I no longer know what to ask.

"Censer, how many things have you done?"

The incense burner has dim eyes, unable to see through the light.

I just felt that the soles of my feet were weak, and I wanted to move forward but couldn't.The person in front of him was both familiar and strangely cold.

"The most innocent is Zhang Rui." I said.

"Zhang Rui is indeed innocent, I don't want to harm him."

"But he changed his horoscope because of you, what kind of life has he been living for the past twenty years or so!" I didn't have the courage to continue.

The incense burner said: "Are you blaming me? I have always known in my heart that your feelings for me were forced by me by means. You would never love me."

I froze for a moment, then took another step.

"So I let you and Zhang Rui go, you shouldn't hesitate at all. When you think of everything, you will only hate me."

"..."

The incense burner smiled: "Once a person takes a wrong step, he has to pay a greater price to make up for that step. Sometimes the hole gets bigger and bigger. In order not to remind you of those things, I did a lot of wrong things. I didn't Lying to you, but I can't tell you the truth. I know you can't force a person to love yourself, but I don't want to lose you. I care about you so much, so I will do anything to stop those people from taking you away from me."

"Could it be a little extreme?" I said bitterly, "I would stay by your side if you didn't have to do that."

The incense burner said sadly: "I'm not sure, I don't have confidence. I can be lonely for several lifetimes, I just hope that you have loved me, even if that kind of love is what I deceived myself to come."

I smiled wryly: "Xiang Lu, your scheming is so deep that I, the person who shares the bed with you, didn't see it at all. You are also smarter than Zhang Rui, so you know to be a little more tactful, step by step and deepen slowly. Unknowingly, I threw myself into the trap. It is also a skill to steal something like you, no wonder Zhang Rui lost to you."

The incense burner has a dull expression, I don't think he can show any expression at this moment.

I slowly approached him, but he lowered his eyes and dared not look at me.

I smiled softly, smoothed his long hair, and hugged him: "It doesn't matter how it started, what matters is the result. Although your scheme is despicable, it is very successful. Censer, come home with me."

"Aren't you afraid of me?" the incense burner asked me. "I have killed many people."

Still in that calm and gentle tone, I repeated: "Let's go home, shall we?"

Feelings are like this, you may not be aware of when it sprouted, you will only remember the deepest part of the relationship.Those were the days when I was in Changsha with the incense burner. From eating white steamed buns every day for a month, to the growing prosperity of the business, from the insecure inversion career to the time when we went shopping in the second-hand market to buy goods and earn clean money to live a peaceful life. Keeping accounts in the house, I enjoy the shade outside the house, I cook in the evening, and he is the diner.I took care of him when he was sick, and he handed me an umbrella when I went out to deliver goods in the rain.When the habit becomes natural, the feelings that have been boiled out in the plain and simple days of the day will be truly integrated into the bone marrow little by little.I can't get used to life without him.

Going back in time, I think back to the time when Zhang Rui, Shen Er and I were drinking tea and chatting on a boat on the Huangpu River. Shen Er said that he would marry a gentle and generous woman as his wife, but he ended up marrying a young jade like Miao Ling. Frozen and smart girl.I asked Zhang Rui what he thought about his future wife, and he smiled at me indifferently, drank a sip of tea and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, just let it happen. Maybe I will never marry in this life." At that time, I heard I felt that he seemed gentle, but in fact he was not easy to get close to. In the future, when speaking in front of him, I would often be more careful, knowing that he couldn't take jokes, and I was afraid that it would be hard to get offended.

In contrast, everything seems to be accidental, but also inevitable.There must be a reason for the accident, otherwise I would not have been impulsive to go to Changsha with the incense burner to live in the world of two people.

Even if the horoscope is changed and the marriage is reversed, life cannot be repeated because of the mistakes made at the beginning.

Zhang Rui has nothing to do with me, and the incense burner is my destiny.

Although the Yin soldiers have retreated, I still have no memory of Chi You.We searched for a long time to find out what mechanism was in the temple. Seeing that Zhang Rui was going to die, I tightened my belt and said, let’s go back the same way.

God knows, we went outside.

It's a pity that God has no eyes, and the incense burner is secretive, and finally said that he can't walk with us.

I asked him, how many years will it take, if I should throw Zhang Rui into the barren hills so that he can get back together with me with peace of mind.He avoided the topic, just said sorry, and said that if I was willing to wait for him, he would come back.

I don't like to force, so I parted ways with him, and then returned to Suzhou with a half-conscious Zhang Rui.

After arriving at Zhang's house, within two days, Zhang Rui was bedridden.

The peach blossoms had just emerged in the yard, and Zhang Rui was looking forward to seeing the peach blossoms blooming every day for a few days.

I held his hand and kept saying, "If you can see it, you will definitely see it."

He was always afraid that if he closed his eyes, he would never wake up again.In those few days, I had no choice but to watch by the bed every night to coax him to sleep.Later, a peach blossomed on the branch, and the delicate petals contained the morning dew. I pointed it out to him in surprise, and he squinted his eyes.When I turned my head again, he really closed his eyes this time and didn't open them again. If there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, my nose was sore, I gritted my teeth and hurriedly asked Ah Huai to make me a cup of coffee.

Back in Changsha, I reorganized the store and opened it again. I found a guy to help. The guy is big and likes to wear a white coat every day, so my customers always think he is the boss and I am a handyman.

The white coat is extremely diligent in doing things, it seems that Zhang Rui didn't teach him in vain before.I have more free time to type on the keyboard, write about the experience of fighting in the past, and I want to make a book of hundreds of thousands of words, so I submit it.

The days are flying fast, year after year, and every time the peach blossom branches sprout in early spring, I think that the anniversary of Zhang Rui's death is approaching.Prepare tributes and paper money for going to the grave early. Zhang Rui said before that he died. If we go to offer incense, remember to offer sweet-scented osmanthus cakes in front of his grave. I asked the white coat, Zhang Rui usually does not eat sweets, why? I like sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and I can't tell why in a white coat.In short, there are sweet-scented osmanthus cakes every year. I am afraid that Zhang Rui will be picky, and I will buy them from different stores every year. The taste will always be different.

Three years later, I am almost thirty, and I have enough money in my account to buy two houses in Changsha, but my incense burner has not come back yet.That guy always disappears when he runs away, and I don't know where to find him, so I just waited and waited, and then calmed down.

Later, in the summer of that year, the rainfall across the country was unprecedented, and there were floods everywhere. Zhang Rui's grave in his hometown was actually buried by the collapsed landslides.The white coat and I were so angry that our eyes were full of stars, and we thought to ourselves, is this the retribution for fighting back when we were young, or Zhang Xiaogua's life is so poor that God will not give him peace when he dies.

The white coat looked at me and asked if I should hire someone to dig it or dig it myself.I glared at him and said, of course I need someone to dig it!

The person invited was a waste, and said in a daze that the collapse was serious and the grave was too deep to be dug out.

Then the white coat drove the trash away, I stomped my feet and thought, damn it, I dig it myself!

As soon as I rolled up my sleeves, the white coat stopped me: "You are not digging a grave, are you going to bury yourself in it? Besides, maybe the head of the family doesn't want to be disturbed by the world anymore. If he wants to be quiet, let him go!"

After returning to Changsha, I didn't know what was missing, and I was always in a trance.I asked Fourth Master Jiang, and Fourth Master Jiang also agreed that the grave should not be moved easily, so I had no choice but to give up.

The summer is over, looking at the autumn water and worrying about people.

I was annoyed by the always sullen God, and I lost consecutive games against the owner of the shop next door.

That afternoon, after sending away a group of guests, I set out the chessboard to study the reasons for my loss in the previous two days. Someone pushed the door in, but I didn't answer.

When the man came to him, he actually sat down, picked up the white pieces in the chess box and put them on the chessboard.I saw that hand was pale and powerful, with slender fingers and full joints, and the little finger had some curvature, like a machete.

Startled, I looked up suddenly.

The man turned his back to the light, his clear eyes were calm, and the tip of his eyes hung up, showing a hint of a smile.

"I am back."

My chest twitched violently, and I immediately overturned the chessboard: "Damn it, you still have the nerve to come back!"

That guy's boring skills are getting deeper and deeper, and his eyes are so pale that he can't see much emotion. He took off his backpack and took out an urn: "In the past year, I expected that there would be a flood in Zhang Rui's hometown, and I was afraid that the landslide would bury the grave." , At that time, I took out his urn by talking to myself. I didn’t have time to come here before, so I dragged it until now. You can find him a better place, or I can help choose a geomantic treasure.”

My heart was so tight that I couldn't breathe, and said softly: "You, you can't say something nice..."

Cenxiang Lu thought for a while, and said: "It's better not to talk about it in front of him, but to talk privately in the room."

I sigh.After all, the incense burner cannot be compared with Zhang Rui. It looks simple, but it is also difficult to guess.

In fact, I know where the incense burner went in those years.

At that time, in order to save him, I took Shen Fangfang's poison. Later, in order to save me, he promised Shen Fangfang to wait for everything to come to an end, and guard the tomb of the Shen family's ancient house for three years.

Although Shen Fangfang died, and Shen Lanlan's whereabouts are also unknown, but the agreement was made first, and the incense burner is a person who strictly keeps the oath, so I can't complain.The foundation of the Shen family all became rich because of the good feng shui of that ancient house, even if it was for the sake of the prodigal son Shen Er and his future descendants, it would accumulate more sinister virtues.

Besides, it is worth waiting these few years. Although time can make people let go of everything, it can also settle the deepest desire in their hearts.

Without these few years, perhaps there would be no decades to come.

After all, it took me three years to really let go of Zhang Rui.

The peach blossoms bloom again, and the peach blossoms fall again.Ten years is just a blink of an eye.

The incense burner sat on the cool chair with his arms around me.I fell asleep for a while, and when I woke up he gave me a sip of grapefruit tea.

I squinted and looked out, the eaves were dripping with water, as if it had just rained, so I said, "Do you still remember that year on my birthday, you actually made an oil-paper umbrella and gave it to me, saying that I would take it with you when you go out on rainy days?" with it."

The incense burner gently kissed my forehead: "Remember, I just gave you this birthday present."

"Time flies so fast." I couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The incense burner hugged me tightly, and his silent tenderness always warmed my heart. For so many years, I have only accepted his set.

I closed my eyes, and let myself act coquettishly in his arms: "I won't go to Zhang Rui's grave this year, you remind Lao Bai, don't miss out what you should bring, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake must be steamed before taking it. "

The incense burner said softly: "He is more careful than you."

I smiled: "Yes."

We didn't speak, and the incense burner lowered his head and kissed my lips, just nodded lightly, and then said: "What else do you have to worry about?"

"It's gone." I said, "With you here, I don't need to worry about anything."

The incense burner was silent for a while, "Do you want to eat something?"

"I'm not hungry." I smiled, "Just hold me."

"Then you can sleep again, I will carry you back to the house when it gets late."

"it is good."

I closed my eyes, but I was filtering a lot of things in my mind, and I still couldn't help but say: "Do you remember that year, when I fought for the first time, I thought you were like a ghost at that time, you shouted When I entered the tomb, I was a little scared. I guess Zhang Rui hated you so much outside... Also, do you remember that antique auction where you dressed up like a model and wanted to occupy me? The seat next to me, I think who is this person, so unreasonable... Also, on the way we went to Wuhan to find Shen Er, we slept in the same sleeping bag, did you have an interest in me at that time? By the way, when did you Did you start to have feelings for me? When you were in Yunnan? When you went to Wuhan? Or..."

"I can't tell you this, you take your time to guess."

"Damn it, I'm dead, and I'll still chase after you."

"I can't ask for it."

I continued to think wildly.

"If I die, what will you write on my epitaph?"

"Dead wife, the tomb of the incense bottle."

"..." Come to think of it, I don't seem to have told him. In fact, what I have been secretly calling out is "censer", "Hey, have you remembered my real name?"

The incense burner is cunning, and he usually just smiles and doesn't answer such questions.At this time, I thought, what is he secretly calling me?

Recently, I don't deny that I have become more and more talkative.Moreover, the incense burner is also willing to listen to me, he said that he will write down every word I say, and remember it for a lifetime, no matter how long his life is.

Man has no eternal life, only in the eyes of one man, until the end of all things.

I squinted my eyes in joy, and the incense burner was confused.I said: "I feel that I have obtained the real phoenix nirvana." After speaking, I looked up at those clear eyes, grabbed his neck abruptly, and kissed him.
