The more he procrastinated, the more Zhou Yu suffered, so he could only hold his breath and stuff all the medicine into it.
"Be patient, it will be over soon..."
Zhou Yu just didn't make a sound.
When the stuffing was over, Zhou Yu's body seemed to be fished out of sweat, and his body couldn't stop shaking, which made Zhuge Liang feel very distressed.
He applied medicine to the outside of the wound again, and then bandaged it with a clean medical cloth.
"I just hate that I don't have Mafeisan here..." Zhuge Liang blamed himself: "There is no preparation here, otherwise I wouldn't let you suffer like this..."
Zhou Yu smiled slightly, then shook his head.The movement was as light as if it was about to shatter.Seeing that he seemed to be about to say something, Zhuge Liang immediately covered his mouth and said, "If you have anything to say, don't rush to say it now, you need to rest." After finishing speaking, he lit a soothing incense, "This will help you rest. .”
Then he hurriedly called for some kind of tonic, and helped Zhou Yu to feed it.
After waiting for a long time, Zhou Yu's pale face showed a little pitiful color.The lips are still frighteningly white.
Zhuge Liang helped him wipe himself under the quilt, put on clean clothes, and said, "Go to sleep."
Zhou Yu shook his head slightly.
Zhuge Liang sat on the head of his bed, half supported him and said, "Hey, you don't have to rest now. Let's talk about it later."
Zhou Yu was silent for a while, and then said in an almost inaudible voice: "I can't sleep."
Zhuge Liang's body froze, only then did he realize that he was in so much pain that he couldn't sleep.
Immediately, my heart hurts greatly, I really wish to hurt him for him.
Seeing him like that, Zhou Yu pulled out a faint smile and said, "...you accompany me... let's talk..."
Neither of them mentioned why Zhou Yu appeared here with injuries all over his body.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang nodded quickly, and said with a smile, "Does it look like when we first met?"
That winter full of surprises.
"You were not feeling well at that time," Zhuge Liang recalled his appearance of having a fever, and said with a smile, "I was also like this, taking care of you by your side.
"It was so difficult to ask you to drink medicine at that time—how afraid of suffering?"
Having said that, the scenes of that year came to the fore one after another.
Zhou Yu lost a lot of blood, and his hands and feet were cold.Zhuge Liang helped him wrap another layer of quilt, and then ordered a bowl of blood-enriching food, and Xiao helped Zhou Yu to feed him mouthful.
"At that time Xiaonen was sticking to you." Zhuge Liang blew on the tonic, then fed it in along Zhou Yu's mouth, and said, "Is it hot?"
Zhou Yu shook his head slightly.
Zhuge Liang continued with peace of mind: "The thatched hut is still there now, and I will remember all the bad things you did."
Zhou Yu's face gradually became a little bloody, and he smiled slightly, and said, "When did I do...bad things?"
Zhuge Liang fed him spoonful by spoonful for a long time, talking a lot.
For a moment, the two of them felt like they were in that cottage back then.
But they all know that they can't go back to each other.
seventy.
At dawn, Zhou Yu fell into a drowsy sleep.
There was always a faint sound outside, as if he was tossed about by the assassin all night.Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Yu on the sick bed, feeling worried.
It would be terrible if someone found out.
Let alone the crime of covering up the enemy.Zhou Yu is the enemy's coach, and if he falls into the hands of Liu Bei and the others, there will be nothing good to eat.
He could only close the door tightly and order everyone not to disturb no matter what happened.Originally, it was difficult to hide a person in a room, let alone a patient.
Zhuge Liang was very busy here, and Zhou Yu's side had a fever again.
It burned for two days and two nights.
Zhuge Liang was extremely worried, and he couldn't ask others for help, so he could only quietly help him boil medicine and heal his injuries.
After two days, he was worried about getting worse, changing dressings, and being exposed. Zhuge Liang was so worried that he almost didn't close his eyes.
Zhuge Liang used almost all the best medicines in his private collection on Zhou Yu.
Under such care, Zhou Yu's injury finally improved a lot in a short period of time.Presumably the root cause of the disease was that he didn't take good care of himself at all.
After working hard for two days, Zhou Yu quietly opened his eyes in the middle of the night.
His eyes were still somewhat sickly and chaotic.
Zhuge Liang was standing by his couch, he was so tired that he just felt a little drowsy, he opened his eyes with a glance from the corner of his eyes, and immediately woke up with a jerk.
"Gongjin," he said with concern, "Are you awake?"
Zhou Yu let out a "huh", it seems that he has not recovered from the fever, and his mind is still not clear.
"It's good to wake up, it's good to wake up." Zhuge Liang said along his chest: "I've slept for two days—do you want some water?"
Zhou Yu looked at him, obviously unable to react.
Zhuge Liang gently convinced him to get up, and then fed him a small bowl of ginseng soup.After Zhou Yu had a fever, his throat was dry, so Zhuge Liang blew another bowl and fed it with the medicine.
After feeding, Zhou Yu's mind was also clear.
"Fortunately you came to my place." Zhuge Liang packed up his things and said with a smile, "If you didn't meet me, you would have been in big trouble."
Zhou Yu said with a smile: "I was injured at the time, and my brain started to get confused... Seeing that this small building is the best in the vicinity, it is also facing the river, and there is an observatory on the side, so it must be your residence. I guessed it too. , which means that I am destined."
Seeing that he woke up, Zhuge Liang felt relieved, and said: "You are destined to die, I don't know what you have done to me. Come on, drink the porridge while it's hot."
Zhou Yu took the bowl, blew it obediently, and began to eat slowly.
Zhuge Liang leaned his face and watched him eat.
Zhou Yu felt that he was looking at her, so she said, "What are you looking at me for?"
Zhuge Liang continued to look, and said, "Look at you."
Zhou Yu said with satisfaction: "Of course I look good. Didn't you notice it before?" As he spoke, he stuffed a spoonful of porridge into his mouth.
Zhuge Liang wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled warmly, "What's the rush? Eat slowly."
After Zhou Yu had finished eating, Zhuge Liang knew it was time, so he had no choice but to ask, "Why did you get here?"
Zhou Yu was startled, then put down the bowl in his hand.
Zhuge Liang knew that as soon as these words were spoken, the tenderness and joy of their reunion would be over.
What Zhou Yu said must be what Zhuge Liang didn't want to hear.
He quietly waited for Zhou Yu to reply.
Zhou Yu lowered his head, thought for a while, and then slowly said, "I have one thing to ask you."
Zhuge Liang's heart moved, and he said slowly: "Why do you ask me?" There was no sadness or joy in his voice.
"It's come all the way here...of course it's because of—" Zhou Yu raised his eyes, and met Zhuge Liang's eyes with glazed eyes, and said, "Only you can do this."
In the room slightly scented with the fragrance of books, medicine and incense, there are many Zhuge Liang's calligraphy.
When the night wind blew in, it made a rustling sound.
More leaks.
Zhuge Liang sighed, closed the window tightly, and said, "Say it."
Zhou Yu's heart eased, and he considered his words, "Back then, a close friend of mine died for no apparent reason... For so many years, I have been looking for the reason for his death." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Zhuge Liang, but didn't see anything , I had to continue: "Now I finally know where this secret might be hidden... But it has been divided into three parts, and I have to collect them all. Now I have found two, and the last one—— "
Before Zhou Yu finished speaking, Zhuge Liang interrupted, "Is it a silk script?"
Zhou Yu was taken aback.
"That friend of yours," Zhuge Liang stood by the window, looked at him and asked, "Is it Sun Ce?"
Zhou Yu looked into his eyes and could only answer truthfully, "Yes."
Zhuge Liang closed his eyes, and opened them slowly after a long time.
"Do you want me to steal that silk book and give it to you?"
Zhou Yu hurriedly said, "No, I—"
"Betray my lord, my country, my people?"
"Kong Ming, I..."
"Gongjin, sometimes I think you are really cruel." Zhuge Liang lowered his head and smiled wryly, "You always appear suddenly, and then disappear on your own. Every time we say goodbye, we say, 'The next time we meet, we will be enemies' Such embarrassing words.”
Zhuge Liang's voice was not high, as flat as telling a story.
But full of pain, sorrow, and...disappointment.
"After we parted, you never wrote me a letter." Zhuge Liang looked at him, "and never contacted me. It's like I never was."
Zhou Yu was taken aback, but there was nothing to refute.
...it is true, it is true.He never contacted Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang laughed, and then said: "The first time we met, you were seriously ill. I took care of you for nearly a month, and then you left suddenly. You didn't leave anything behind.
"The second time we met, we went to drink on the painting boat. You rejected me. You said a lot of heartless words." Zhuge Liang raised his head and looked at him with sad eyes, "Do you still remember?"
Zhou Yu was silent and shook his head.
Zhuge Liang looked at him, and laughed at himself: "You said, 'Differences of Tao do not conspire with each other, you have your world, and I have my common people. From today on, you and I will not interfere with each other, just pretend that you have never met me before. , I have never met you, and no one will remember anyone in the future.'”
He paused, then spoke again.
"'The next time we meet again...is on the battlefield.'"
Zhou Yu's voice became hoarse, and he could only say, "You still remember?"
Zhuge Liang looked at him with a sad look in his eyes, "You have already forgotten."
Hearing what he said, Zhou Yu felt his heart choke, and infinite guilt surfaced.
"The third time we met," Zhuge Liang retracted his gaze, and continued calmly: "It was on the eve of Chibi. You and I drank together under the moon, and then we talked about the blessings in life. Let me ask you, what is the first blessing in your life? What do you say?" It's 'meet a jerk'..."
"Stop it," Zhou Yu felt sad and guilty for a while, and could only say, "Kong Ming, stop it."
"The fourth time was at the Battle of Chibi."
"do not talk……"
"The fifth time was in front of Sun Ce's tomb." Zhuge Liang breathed a sigh of relief, "You said a lot. But I feel that every sentence was addressed to me, but every sentence was not addressed to me. "
Zhou Yu looked at him.He didn't look at Zhou Yu.
"You and I are seeing off by the river." Candlelight dazzled Zhuge Liang's half face, "I hope we can keep in touch, but you said, 'The next time we meet, we may be enemies'."
Zhuge Liang turned his head, looked at him, and said with a wry smile: "The only time he came to me now was with such an excessive request."
He had a sad face, bitterness and disappointment in his eyes, "Gongjin, how can you be so cruel?"
You gave Sun Ce all your kindness, all your tenderness, consideration, understanding, all your love and passion.
You are willing to give him ten years, but you are not willing to keep your eyes on me for even a moment.
"In your eyes," Zhuge Liang said with a wry smile, "I'm afraid it's just an irrelevant bystander?"
He was noble throughout his life, and he can be regarded as knowledgeable about astronomy and geography.But it was in the hands of one person.
Zhou Yu taught him to speak so that his face turned pale, but he couldn't make a sound when he opened his mouth.
Candlelight shines on maps, scrolls, and paintings.
It shone on Zhuge Liang's face, Zhou Yu's face.
"Kong Ming..."
"It's my self-indulgence."
"no!"
"I--"
"Kong Ming!" Zhou Yu raised his voice and said earnestly, "How can you think like that? I have always treated you as my best friend—"
"You don't have to comfort me."
"I'm not comforting you!" Zhou Yu's body was weak, and he almost lost all his strength by shouting at him, "That year's Shangyuan Festival, to put it bluntly, was actually my fault. All these years, I always think, if I didn't Speaking of you, maybe it will be different... It’s not that I forgot, but I dare not mention it, and I dare not think about it.” His eyes were fiery, and he said word by word: “On the eve of Chibi, I asked you how Liu Bei treated you. , You said it was good. I know you are lying to me! I knew that Liu Bei was not as good as the rumors and appearances to you. I didn’t take the initiative to contact you because I was afraid that he would make use of the problem and catch you. When the time comes , I will detain you as a 'treasonous collaborator' basin!
"Back then in Nanyang, if it wasn't for you, I might not be dead now. How could I treat you as an irrelevant person?
"I have been taking good care of the pigeons you gave me." Zhou Yu looked at him sincerely, "No one can rely on what I am doing now. I rushed all the way here and came directly to find the pigeons. You, because I know that you can be trusted! I can only trust you!"
Zhuge Liang looked at him, seemingly surprised.
"I never regarded you as an irrelevant person." Zhou Yu said slowly: "I treat you as my best, best, best friend."
The four eyes met, and there were thousands of words that could not be said.
"...I only have two days left." Zhou Yu lowered his eyes, "You must have guessed it, I came out of the barracks temporarily to handle this matter... Lu Su can only help me hide fifteen God. Fifteen days later, if I return to the army without incident, I will definitely be discovered, and by then... I am afraid it will be a death penalty for running away.
"Now until the end of these fifteen days, there are only two days left."
Zhou Yu raised his eyes and looked at him, his voice was a little hoarse, "I never thought of letting you steal that silk book... How could I let you fall into such an unkind situation? I want to say, this silk book It has interlayers. If it is smoked with sulfur for a while, the silk book will be divided into three layers... What I want is just the middle layer. This time there is no writing, and to others, it is just like waste silk. But for me, it is something I want to get back with all my life...Kong Ming."
Zhou Yu struggled to sit up from the couch.
"I, Zhou Yu, have never begged for help in my whole life."
Zhuge Liang was startled.
"Gongjin, you—"
"Even in the most difficult and difficult times, I never asked anyone."
"Gongjin—"
"This time, even if I beg you, okay?"
Zhou Yu's voice was clear, with a little weakness after illness, making it even more difficult to refuse.
"If you have any request, as long as I can do it, I will promise anything."
Zhuge Liang's expression changed.
Slowly repeating the sentence just now, "'Yes to everything'?"
Zhou Yu looked at him and nodded.
Zhuge Liang looked at him, then slowly walked over to Zhou Yu's couch.
He looked at Zhou Yu condescendingly, from top to bottom.
From this angle, you can see the attractive collarbone under the thin obscene clothes.Outside the quilt, stretched out a bright wrist.
Can anything be done...
He raised his hand, stroked his familiar cheek slowly, and then raised his chin.
Zhou Yu was slightly surprised, "Kong Ming...?"
He leaned down slowly, and the distance between Zhou Yu and Zhou Yu gradually narrowed.
Then he opened his mouth lightly.
"'Anything can be done', so don't say it." Zhuge Liang pulled up the quilt to cover his slightly open neckline, "Even if it's for yourself or your best friend."
Zhou Yu was taken aback for a moment before realizing what he meant.
Just as he was about to speak, Zhuge Liang sat down beside his couch and asked, "What you just told me...is it true?"
Zhou Yu said: "How could I lie to you? Of course it is absolutely true, every word is true."
Zhuge Liang looked into his eyes, as if he wanted to look into his bones.
—Is it true or false?
Is what he said true or false?
He said that he treated himself as a friend, that he was always thinking of himself, that he never saw himself as an irrelevant person--is it true, or is it false?
He looked at him deeply, at his black jade-like eyes, at the deep black color, at every trace of fluctuation, every trace of emotion in it.
He wanted to know whether it was true or not.
They stared at each other for a long time.
Candlelight flickered on their faces, alternating light and dark.
After a long time, Zhuge Liang stood up and stood by the window with his back on his back.As if thinking about something.
There were three partridge cries outside the window.Zhou Yu knew that it was He Sun He's secret signal.
"...I should go." Zhou Yu pulled her hair and said with a faint smile: "My companion has returned from Yingchuan... No matter what the result is, I have to go to see him. After all, it's time to go back in two days. It's pretty tight." He managed to get up, pretending to be relaxed and found a piece of clothing from Zhuge Liang's closet, and said, "I'm afraid you threw my clothes away? Then wear yours."
Zhuge Liang was still standing there, but turned around to look at him.
After Zhou Yu got dressed, she also stood by the window and pushed it open.
"You can't go out through the main entrance, I'll just go here." After speaking, he looked up at him and said for a long time, "Kong Ming, I forced you."
The night wind blew his hair.
Zhuge Liang looked at him.
Just when Zhou Yu was about to turn around and go out, he grabbed his arm.
Zhou Yu turned around in surprise, "What's wrong?"
Zhuge Liang looked at him, gritted his teeth, and finally let go.
"……nothing."
Sun He jumped to the window and handed him the black cloak.Zhou Yu put it on and disappeared by the window.
In fact, what Zhuge Liang wanted to ask just now was Zhou Yu's injury.
He wanted to know if he did the injury himself.
But in the end, he still couldn't speak out.
In the end, he still didn't have the courage to tell the truth from the fake.
Sun He picked Zhou Yu into the packed carriage, and then escaped according to the arranged route.
He bribed some soldiers according to Zhou Yu's previous instructions, and he only said that he was a businessman who was greedy for small profits, and he passed.
Sun He drove the car, and asked for a long time, "How is it?"
Zhou Yu sat in the car, feeling a dull pain from the abdominal injury, "Let's go with fate. Maybe it will work, maybe it won't work."
Sun He was silent for a long time, and then said again: "Is what you told him true?"
Sun He has never been a talkative person, Zhou Yu was also surprised when he asked this question.
Then he smiled and said, "Bo Hai, do you think it's real or fake?"
Sun He didn't speak again.
The sound of the rumbling wheels, the sound of horseshoes, the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, and the sound of birds are all mixed together.
The vastness of night enveloped him.
On the lonely road, he is an enemy of everyone.
71.
On the boundless plateau.
The steep mountains piled up by the loess are split by a rushing river.The sound of rumbling water, wrapped in yellow sand, rushed towards the endless east, reaching the end beyond sight.
yellow sand.
The vast plateau is flat, with only a few clumps of withered trees curled up in the wind and sand.
red sun.
Like a drop of cinnabar on the dim yellow paper of the sky, the sun is setting and the mountains are setting.Zhou Yu was dressed in dark red, standing in the golden and reddish sunset.
Unlimited depression and chill.
But with incomparable majesty and magnificence.
It is precisely because of the strangeness and danger that he can stand alone and stand out.
Lu Su stood by, "Why doesn't the governor return to the camp?"
Zhou Yu just arrived here not long ago, but he didn't return it to the account.Just sat down on the broken edge of the plateau.
Around him is a deep valley that is vertical like a knife, and below is a long rushing river.
"Waiting for someone."
The voice of the words was still too small before the voice of Longlong Jianghe, as if the mouth was about to fall apart.
Waiting for someone.Waiting for someone who doesn't know if he will come.
Zhou Yu ordered someone to spread a blanket on the ground, set up a piano table, and then sat down quietly.
The yellow sand blew onto his face, and his long hair fluttered with the wind.
sunset.Early tomorrow morning, Sun Quan's military supervisor will come here, and he can no longer act freely.All he had left was this night.
——Success or failure, all bet on Zhuge Liang.
His body is at its limit.He knows it himself.When rushing on the road last night, Zhou Yu vomited a big mouthful of blood, and Sun He was stunned at that time.But he smiled, wiped his mouth, and continued to rush back.
He was wearing dark red clothes, and the hem of his clothes kept getting blown up even when he was sitting.The rust red color used to be Sun Ce's favorite.He felt that this color was majestic and calm. Although it was red, it was unassuming, with such an incomparable dignity.
Not everyone can wear this color.Lu Su seldom sees people who dare to wear rust red.Among the few people, Zhou Yu also dressed the most tastefully.Rust red clothes, black inner shirt with fringes, a belt, and a black fox fur cape. The calmness and aura that can only be obtained after years of training are really not comparable to ordinary people.
Looking at the setting sun in the distance, Zhou Yu smiled slowly.
"I'm afraid he won't come." He said lightly, "I forced him."
If he failed to collect all three, he would not be able to find the Celestial Master.To no avail.He finally missed the opportunity.
The long wind wrapped his clothes.He moved his fingers lightly, and the water-like sound of the piano throbbed from the strings.
Sometimes warm and melodious, like whispering in the middle of the night when I was a child, warming my heart.
Sometimes it is noisy and confusing, and it seems to be struggling in pain.
Sometimes gloomy, sometimes joyful.Sometimes it's like thinking alone, and sometimes it's as decisive as a battlefield.
The Kunshan jade is broken, and the phoenix cries blood.Hibiscus weeps dew, rain hits the wall.
The ups and downs are like a story, a life.It trembled with the magnificent long river below, as if resonating, faintly forming the same song.
The thought-provoking sound of the piano and the revitalizing surging river complement each other without the sound of the waves interfering with the sound of the piano.The waves vibrated, and it seemed that they also vibrated into the hearts of the people along with the sound of the piano.
Countless longing, reluctance, joy, regret, all the joy and encouragement, love and hatred parting, seem to be washed away by the long river.Only this mighty, boundless loess, the sound of waves, this yellow sand, this sunset, this place that makes people feel lonely and magnificent.
Crushing people's hearts.
The endless relief seems to contain all the sins, all the unwillingness, and reluctance.
In this chaotic world, still maintain the clear sound of the piano.
Zhou Yu played for a long time, and everyone held their breath.
The sound of the piano stopped, as if following the long wind, along the long river, to the extreme east.In every surging sunrise and sunset, every starry night and moonlit night, beside the intertwined dead trees and beside the waterfalls of flowing jade, there is a faint sound.
——Changhe.
The red sun gradually fell to the end of the line of sight.
The setting sun, accompanied by the lingering rhyme of the sound of the piano, struck Zhou Yu.
Footsteps gradually came from behind.
Zhou Yu sat on the ground, feeling the steady, powerful and confident footsteps.
The man stopped not far from Zhou Yu.The two remained silent.
When Lu Su saw it was him, his face turned pale with shock, "Why are you? This place is heavily guarded, how could you come here—"
"I sent him here."
Zhou Yu spoke lightly, and then let out a long sigh of relief.
"--You finally came."
Standing in the wind, they all raised their voices.
Zhuge Liang smiled wryly and said, "Can I not come?" Looking at the magnificent scenery, he said with a long sigh: "The governor really broke the boat...he spent a lot of money."
He stretched out his right hand, which was holding... a tiger talisman.
——This is Zhou Yu's Tiger Talisman.
"You deliberately left this tiger talisman in my room... If I don't come today, even if you return to the camp in time within fifteen days, you will still be sentenced to death."
Zhuge Liang looked at his back and said word by word: "Then it is equivalent to me killing you with my own hands."
Zhou Yu didn't say a word.Maybe it's the default.
"I said you were cruel that day, but I just realized today," Zhuge Liang laughed angrily, with a sad voice, "You are not cruel to me...you are also cruel to yourself." He took a few steps forward and asked: "Are you not afraid that I really won't come today?"
Zhou Yu was silent for a long while before uttering two words: "I'm afraid."
Zhuge Liang looked at him.
"How can I not be afraid?" His voice was a little trance, as if he was out of his body, "But I know, if you don't come today, it's just my destiny... I won't blame you." He stood up, slowly Turning to the opposite side of Zhuge Liang, he said, "I'm sorry for you."
When Zhuge Liang heard these six words, his heart felt as uncomfortable as if a piece of cold ice had been dug in.
Although they stood facing each other, they were far apart.
Like between them, those insurmountable things.
Zhou Yu was against the wind, and his long hair and robe were blown up.Standing in the sunset against the light, the sky is full of golden yellow and fiery red, absolutely vast and barren, with an irresistible heartbeat.
They stood there quietly, waiting for the same answer.Zhuge Liang didn't say anything, and Zhou Yu didn't ask.
Watching the red sun being swallowed by the earth together.
"Do you think I brought what you wanted today?"
Zhou Yu looked at him, shook his head truthfully, and replied, "...I don't know."
Zhuge Liang looked at him with no sadness or joy on his face, "Do you want me to bring it here?"
Zhou Yu slightly raised his eyes and nodded. "...I... naturally hope."
Zhuge Liang raised his head, looked at the boundless sky, and let out a long sigh.
Then the eyes fixed on him again.
"I give you this thing today to remind you." He looked into his black jade-like eyes and said word by word, "I am not a man who disappoints you."
Zhou Yu was shocked when he heard this.
As if being strangled by someone, Zhou Yu was too shocked to speak a word.The blood faded from the thin lips, trembling slightly.
"I don't want anything in return." Zhuge Liang took out the thing that caught Zhou Yu's soul from his arms, then bent down slowly, and pressed a stone to the ground.
"You have to remember..." He straightened up, looked at him and said slowly, "You will always owe me."
The long wind blew Zhuge Liang's hair, revealing his firm forehead and temples.
He finally bloody uprooted that thing from his heart.
"Let me do the talking this time." Zhuge Liang smiled, looking at the tents in the distance and the flags being blown, "'The next time we meet, we will be enemies'."
——he could finally say those words.
No matter what was in his heart, he was finally able to say this sentence in his mouth.
He didn't wait for Zhou Yu's reply, turned around and left.
Zhou Yu froze there, and before he could make a sound when he opened his mouth, Zhuge Liang froze for a moment, turned his head and said, "What's the name of that song just now?"
It was played impromptu by Zhou Yu without a name.Seeing and asking, Zhou Yu said slowly: "'Changhe'."
Zhuge Liang nodded slightly, and murmured: "...'Changhe'...what a 'Changhe'."
As soon as the voice fell, he turned and left.
Only Zhou Yu was left with a back view.
He will not tell Zhou Yu that Liu Bei and him have been jealous of each other for a long time, even this mezzanine is not so easy to get.
Liu Bei knew what he was thinking, so he would not put this silk book in his hands.
It was this mezzanine that he forced with his sword.
In the end, he betrayed his lord, his country, and his people.
But these things, he will never tell Zhou Yu.
Zhuge Liang is still Zhuge Liang after all.He has something he can't let go of.
After Zhuge Liang left for a long time, Zhou Yu recovered from all the sudden changes and went there to pick up the things Zhuge Liang left behind.
Zhou Yu was slightly taken aback when he saw the thing pressed down by the stone.
Then I was overwhelmed by infinite sadness.
Under the stone is not only the interlayer of the silk book.
There is also a feather fan.
Zhou Yu is very familiar with this lupine.He has held it for many years, and he knows every line on it like the back of his hand.
He gently picked it up, stroking every place on it.
That line of writing is still there.It may be the relationship between being held in the hand day and night, it is slightly shallower, and the bamboo fan handle is also more rounded.
—— Zhuge Liang eventually returned such things to him.
Zhou Yu held him like holding Zhuge Liang's broken feelings.
He looked at the fan and felt that his eyes were sour and tears were about to fall.
He hadn't felt this way for a long time.The tears that really flowed from his heart had already been shed ten years ago.
He looked at the fan, staring in the wind, above the waves, in the yellow sand all over the sky.
The last tear in the eye socket failed to fall.Just like that dissipated in this wind and sand.
I can't find it anymore.
72.
Zhou Yu stood there for a long time.It wasn't until Zhuge Liang's figure disappeared into a dot in the yellow sand that he sighed, turned and walked back.
Seeing that Zhuge Liang suddenly appeared here, Lu Su knew that something was wrong, and estimated that it was probably related to what Zhou Yu had done before, so he dismissed the others and took a few steps back.When Zhuge Liang left, he didn't say a word.
"Captain?"
Half of the red sun has been swallowed by the earth, and the rest of it generally looks more and more red.
Zhou Yu picked up the things Zhuge Liang gave, then looked into the distance and said, "I'm sorry, Zijing, I'm afraid I have to leave again."
Lu Su was startled, "How can that be done? The military supervisor will arrive tomorrow morning, and leaving the camp now is tantamount to asking for death. Commander, this is absolutely impossible."
But Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "Once the warlords are here, I can no longer act on my own... This matter is extremely important, and there is no room for delay." He looked at the sky, and the orange sunset enveloped him, " I've made up my mind, so I don't need to persuade you anymore."
Lu Su knew that once Zhou Yu said this sentence, it would really not be changed.He could only nod his head and said, "Then I... must help the governor."
Zhou Yu glanced at him and said with a smile: "Help me for what? Helping me is to cover up my commanding general who fled the battle. Is there any good fruit to eat? If the military supervisor asks, you should tell the truth. I have my way. "After he finished speaking, he tapped his forehead, and suddenly said: "I almost forgot. This is the tiger charm, you hold it for me first. And if I don't come back after three days, I will submit the letter that I asked you to keep. To the lord." He looked in the direction of the capital, then turned to leave.
Lu Su anxiously said: "Captain! This tiger talisman will never be obtained by the general—"
Zhou Yu didn't seem to take it seriously, "Why are you nervous? I said I asked you to take it for me, but I didn't say I wouldn't take it back." He waved his hand, ignored Lu Su's call, and went straight to find the horse.
There is nothing he can do.Once he doesn't come back, no one can save him.
He has always been fond of Lu Su, and he cultivated it attentively.Once something happens to him, there is still him who can take over from him.What he gave Lu Su was also a suicide note he had prepared a long time ago... In this regard, he was very open-minded.
He knows what kind of state his body is in now.So he has no time to hesitate.
Rejecting Sun He's request to travel with him, Zhou Yu hurried back to Liang Yunguan overnight alone.
By the time it arrived, it was almost sunrise on the second day.The night before sunrise was extraordinarily dark.When Zhou Yu was on his way, the feeling of being alone and shrouded in darkness really made him feel uncertain about his future.
When he arrived at Liang Yunguan, he looked around, but he didn't see anything.
Walking up more than 1000 steps, he thought he would be more or less excited, but he became more and more indifferent as he walked.
The further up the mountain, the more I feel that there is a faint fire.When they got to the top of the mountain, they found nearly twenty disciples waiting here holding torches.
Zhou Yu looked around, and immediately a Taoist stood up and gave a salute: "Poverty Taoist Xuanchun, I have been waiting here with all my disciples for a long time."
Zhou Yu returned the salute, and said with a smile, "Then please trouble the Taoist priest." As he spoke, he made a gesture of "leading the way".
The Taoist smiled, turned around and walked inside.The little Taoist priests around him didn't mutter anything like last time, they all quietly followed the Taoist priest on both sides, Zhou Yu's side.
Floating clouds cover the moon, and Liang Yun watches the shadows of trees whirling, which is even more mysterious in the night.
"sky
"Be patient, it will be over soon..."
Zhou Yu just didn't make a sound.
When the stuffing was over, Zhou Yu's body seemed to be fished out of sweat, and his body couldn't stop shaking, which made Zhuge Liang feel very distressed.
He applied medicine to the outside of the wound again, and then bandaged it with a clean medical cloth.
"I just hate that I don't have Mafeisan here..." Zhuge Liang blamed himself: "There is no preparation here, otherwise I wouldn't let you suffer like this..."
Zhou Yu smiled slightly, then shook his head.The movement was as light as if it was about to shatter.Seeing that he seemed to be about to say something, Zhuge Liang immediately covered his mouth and said, "If you have anything to say, don't rush to say it now, you need to rest." After finishing speaking, he lit a soothing incense, "This will help you rest. .”
Then he hurriedly called for some kind of tonic, and helped Zhou Yu to feed it.
After waiting for a long time, Zhou Yu's pale face showed a little pitiful color.The lips are still frighteningly white.
Zhuge Liang helped him wipe himself under the quilt, put on clean clothes, and said, "Go to sleep."
Zhou Yu shook his head slightly.
Zhuge Liang sat on the head of his bed, half supported him and said, "Hey, you don't have to rest now. Let's talk about it later."
Zhou Yu was silent for a while, and then said in an almost inaudible voice: "I can't sleep."
Zhuge Liang's body froze, only then did he realize that he was in so much pain that he couldn't sleep.
Immediately, my heart hurts greatly, I really wish to hurt him for him.
Seeing him like that, Zhou Yu pulled out a faint smile and said, "...you accompany me... let's talk..."
Neither of them mentioned why Zhou Yu appeared here with injuries all over his body.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang nodded quickly, and said with a smile, "Does it look like when we first met?"
That winter full of surprises.
"You were not feeling well at that time," Zhuge Liang recalled his appearance of having a fever, and said with a smile, "I was also like this, taking care of you by your side.
"It was so difficult to ask you to drink medicine at that time—how afraid of suffering?"
Having said that, the scenes of that year came to the fore one after another.
Zhou Yu lost a lot of blood, and his hands and feet were cold.Zhuge Liang helped him wrap another layer of quilt, and then ordered a bowl of blood-enriching food, and Xiao helped Zhou Yu to feed him mouthful.
"At that time Xiaonen was sticking to you." Zhuge Liang blew on the tonic, then fed it in along Zhou Yu's mouth, and said, "Is it hot?"
Zhou Yu shook his head slightly.
Zhuge Liang continued with peace of mind: "The thatched hut is still there now, and I will remember all the bad things you did."
Zhou Yu's face gradually became a little bloody, and he smiled slightly, and said, "When did I do...bad things?"
Zhuge Liang fed him spoonful by spoonful for a long time, talking a lot.
For a moment, the two of them felt like they were in that cottage back then.
But they all know that they can't go back to each other.
seventy.
At dawn, Zhou Yu fell into a drowsy sleep.
There was always a faint sound outside, as if he was tossed about by the assassin all night.Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Yu on the sick bed, feeling worried.
It would be terrible if someone found out.
Let alone the crime of covering up the enemy.Zhou Yu is the enemy's coach, and if he falls into the hands of Liu Bei and the others, there will be nothing good to eat.
He could only close the door tightly and order everyone not to disturb no matter what happened.Originally, it was difficult to hide a person in a room, let alone a patient.
Zhuge Liang was very busy here, and Zhou Yu's side had a fever again.
It burned for two days and two nights.
Zhuge Liang was extremely worried, and he couldn't ask others for help, so he could only quietly help him boil medicine and heal his injuries.
After two days, he was worried about getting worse, changing dressings, and being exposed. Zhuge Liang was so worried that he almost didn't close his eyes.
Zhuge Liang used almost all the best medicines in his private collection on Zhou Yu.
Under such care, Zhou Yu's injury finally improved a lot in a short period of time.Presumably the root cause of the disease was that he didn't take good care of himself at all.
After working hard for two days, Zhou Yu quietly opened his eyes in the middle of the night.
His eyes were still somewhat sickly and chaotic.
Zhuge Liang was standing by his couch, he was so tired that he just felt a little drowsy, he opened his eyes with a glance from the corner of his eyes, and immediately woke up with a jerk.
"Gongjin," he said with concern, "Are you awake?"
Zhou Yu let out a "huh", it seems that he has not recovered from the fever, and his mind is still not clear.
"It's good to wake up, it's good to wake up." Zhuge Liang said along his chest: "I've slept for two days—do you want some water?"
Zhou Yu looked at him, obviously unable to react.
Zhuge Liang gently convinced him to get up, and then fed him a small bowl of ginseng soup.After Zhou Yu had a fever, his throat was dry, so Zhuge Liang blew another bowl and fed it with the medicine.
After feeding, Zhou Yu's mind was also clear.
"Fortunately you came to my place." Zhuge Liang packed up his things and said with a smile, "If you didn't meet me, you would have been in big trouble."
Zhou Yu said with a smile: "I was injured at the time, and my brain started to get confused... Seeing that this small building is the best in the vicinity, it is also facing the river, and there is an observatory on the side, so it must be your residence. I guessed it too. , which means that I am destined."
Seeing that he woke up, Zhuge Liang felt relieved, and said: "You are destined to die, I don't know what you have done to me. Come on, drink the porridge while it's hot."
Zhou Yu took the bowl, blew it obediently, and began to eat slowly.
Zhuge Liang leaned his face and watched him eat.
Zhou Yu felt that he was looking at her, so she said, "What are you looking at me for?"
Zhuge Liang continued to look, and said, "Look at you."
Zhou Yu said with satisfaction: "Of course I look good. Didn't you notice it before?" As he spoke, he stuffed a spoonful of porridge into his mouth.
Zhuge Liang wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled warmly, "What's the rush? Eat slowly."
After Zhou Yu had finished eating, Zhuge Liang knew it was time, so he had no choice but to ask, "Why did you get here?"
Zhou Yu was startled, then put down the bowl in his hand.
Zhuge Liang knew that as soon as these words were spoken, the tenderness and joy of their reunion would be over.
What Zhou Yu said must be what Zhuge Liang didn't want to hear.
He quietly waited for Zhou Yu to reply.
Zhou Yu lowered his head, thought for a while, and then slowly said, "I have one thing to ask you."
Zhuge Liang's heart moved, and he said slowly: "Why do you ask me?" There was no sadness or joy in his voice.
"It's come all the way here...of course it's because of—" Zhou Yu raised his eyes, and met Zhuge Liang's eyes with glazed eyes, and said, "Only you can do this."
In the room slightly scented with the fragrance of books, medicine and incense, there are many Zhuge Liang's calligraphy.
When the night wind blew in, it made a rustling sound.
More leaks.
Zhuge Liang sighed, closed the window tightly, and said, "Say it."
Zhou Yu's heart eased, and he considered his words, "Back then, a close friend of mine died for no apparent reason... For so many years, I have been looking for the reason for his death." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Zhuge Liang, but didn't see anything , I had to continue: "Now I finally know where this secret might be hidden... But it has been divided into three parts, and I have to collect them all. Now I have found two, and the last one—— "
Before Zhou Yu finished speaking, Zhuge Liang interrupted, "Is it a silk script?"
Zhou Yu was taken aback.
"That friend of yours," Zhuge Liang stood by the window, looked at him and asked, "Is it Sun Ce?"
Zhou Yu looked into his eyes and could only answer truthfully, "Yes."
Zhuge Liang closed his eyes, and opened them slowly after a long time.
"Do you want me to steal that silk book and give it to you?"
Zhou Yu hurriedly said, "No, I—"
"Betray my lord, my country, my people?"
"Kong Ming, I..."
"Gongjin, sometimes I think you are really cruel." Zhuge Liang lowered his head and smiled wryly, "You always appear suddenly, and then disappear on your own. Every time we say goodbye, we say, 'The next time we meet, we will be enemies' Such embarrassing words.”
Zhuge Liang's voice was not high, as flat as telling a story.
But full of pain, sorrow, and...disappointment.
"After we parted, you never wrote me a letter." Zhuge Liang looked at him, "and never contacted me. It's like I never was."
Zhou Yu was taken aback, but there was nothing to refute.
...it is true, it is true.He never contacted Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang laughed, and then said: "The first time we met, you were seriously ill. I took care of you for nearly a month, and then you left suddenly. You didn't leave anything behind.
"The second time we met, we went to drink on the painting boat. You rejected me. You said a lot of heartless words." Zhuge Liang raised his head and looked at him with sad eyes, "Do you still remember?"
Zhou Yu was silent and shook his head.
Zhuge Liang looked at him, and laughed at himself: "You said, 'Differences of Tao do not conspire with each other, you have your world, and I have my common people. From today on, you and I will not interfere with each other, just pretend that you have never met me before. , I have never met you, and no one will remember anyone in the future.'”
He paused, then spoke again.
"'The next time we meet again...is on the battlefield.'"
Zhou Yu's voice became hoarse, and he could only say, "You still remember?"
Zhuge Liang looked at him with a sad look in his eyes, "You have already forgotten."
Hearing what he said, Zhou Yu felt his heart choke, and infinite guilt surfaced.
"The third time we met," Zhuge Liang retracted his gaze, and continued calmly: "It was on the eve of Chibi. You and I drank together under the moon, and then we talked about the blessings in life. Let me ask you, what is the first blessing in your life? What do you say?" It's 'meet a jerk'..."
"Stop it," Zhou Yu felt sad and guilty for a while, and could only say, "Kong Ming, stop it."
"The fourth time was at the Battle of Chibi."
"do not talk……"
"The fifth time was in front of Sun Ce's tomb." Zhuge Liang breathed a sigh of relief, "You said a lot. But I feel that every sentence was addressed to me, but every sentence was not addressed to me. "
Zhou Yu looked at him.He didn't look at Zhou Yu.
"You and I are seeing off by the river." Candlelight dazzled Zhuge Liang's half face, "I hope we can keep in touch, but you said, 'The next time we meet, we may be enemies'."
Zhuge Liang turned his head, looked at him, and said with a wry smile: "The only time he came to me now was with such an excessive request."
He had a sad face, bitterness and disappointment in his eyes, "Gongjin, how can you be so cruel?"
You gave Sun Ce all your kindness, all your tenderness, consideration, understanding, all your love and passion.
You are willing to give him ten years, but you are not willing to keep your eyes on me for even a moment.
"In your eyes," Zhuge Liang said with a wry smile, "I'm afraid it's just an irrelevant bystander?"
He was noble throughout his life, and he can be regarded as knowledgeable about astronomy and geography.But it was in the hands of one person.
Zhou Yu taught him to speak so that his face turned pale, but he couldn't make a sound when he opened his mouth.
Candlelight shines on maps, scrolls, and paintings.
It shone on Zhuge Liang's face, Zhou Yu's face.
"Kong Ming..."
"It's my self-indulgence."
"no!"
"I--"
"Kong Ming!" Zhou Yu raised his voice and said earnestly, "How can you think like that? I have always treated you as my best friend—"
"You don't have to comfort me."
"I'm not comforting you!" Zhou Yu's body was weak, and he almost lost all his strength by shouting at him, "That year's Shangyuan Festival, to put it bluntly, was actually my fault. All these years, I always think, if I didn't Speaking of you, maybe it will be different... It’s not that I forgot, but I dare not mention it, and I dare not think about it.” His eyes were fiery, and he said word by word: “On the eve of Chibi, I asked you how Liu Bei treated you. , You said it was good. I know you are lying to me! I knew that Liu Bei was not as good as the rumors and appearances to you. I didn’t take the initiative to contact you because I was afraid that he would make use of the problem and catch you. When the time comes , I will detain you as a 'treasonous collaborator' basin!
"Back then in Nanyang, if it wasn't for you, I might not be dead now. How could I treat you as an irrelevant person?
"I have been taking good care of the pigeons you gave me." Zhou Yu looked at him sincerely, "No one can rely on what I am doing now. I rushed all the way here and came directly to find the pigeons. You, because I know that you can be trusted! I can only trust you!"
Zhuge Liang looked at him, seemingly surprised.
"I never regarded you as an irrelevant person." Zhou Yu said slowly: "I treat you as my best, best, best friend."
The four eyes met, and there were thousands of words that could not be said.
"...I only have two days left." Zhou Yu lowered his eyes, "You must have guessed it, I came out of the barracks temporarily to handle this matter... Lu Su can only help me hide fifteen God. Fifteen days later, if I return to the army without incident, I will definitely be discovered, and by then... I am afraid it will be a death penalty for running away.
"Now until the end of these fifteen days, there are only two days left."
Zhou Yu raised his eyes and looked at him, his voice was a little hoarse, "I never thought of letting you steal that silk book... How could I let you fall into such an unkind situation? I want to say, this silk book It has interlayers. If it is smoked with sulfur for a while, the silk book will be divided into three layers... What I want is just the middle layer. This time there is no writing, and to others, it is just like waste silk. But for me, it is something I want to get back with all my life...Kong Ming."
Zhou Yu struggled to sit up from the couch.
"I, Zhou Yu, have never begged for help in my whole life."
Zhuge Liang was startled.
"Gongjin, you—"
"Even in the most difficult and difficult times, I never asked anyone."
"Gongjin—"
"This time, even if I beg you, okay?"
Zhou Yu's voice was clear, with a little weakness after illness, making it even more difficult to refuse.
"If you have any request, as long as I can do it, I will promise anything."
Zhuge Liang's expression changed.
Slowly repeating the sentence just now, "'Yes to everything'?"
Zhou Yu looked at him and nodded.
Zhuge Liang looked at him, then slowly walked over to Zhou Yu's couch.
He looked at Zhou Yu condescendingly, from top to bottom.
From this angle, you can see the attractive collarbone under the thin obscene clothes.Outside the quilt, stretched out a bright wrist.
Can anything be done...
He raised his hand, stroked his familiar cheek slowly, and then raised his chin.
Zhou Yu was slightly surprised, "Kong Ming...?"
He leaned down slowly, and the distance between Zhou Yu and Zhou Yu gradually narrowed.
Then he opened his mouth lightly.
"'Anything can be done', so don't say it." Zhuge Liang pulled up the quilt to cover his slightly open neckline, "Even if it's for yourself or your best friend."
Zhou Yu was taken aback for a moment before realizing what he meant.
Just as he was about to speak, Zhuge Liang sat down beside his couch and asked, "What you just told me...is it true?"
Zhou Yu said: "How could I lie to you? Of course it is absolutely true, every word is true."
Zhuge Liang looked into his eyes, as if he wanted to look into his bones.
—Is it true or false?
Is what he said true or false?
He said that he treated himself as a friend, that he was always thinking of himself, that he never saw himself as an irrelevant person--is it true, or is it false?
He looked at him deeply, at his black jade-like eyes, at the deep black color, at every trace of fluctuation, every trace of emotion in it.
He wanted to know whether it was true or not.
They stared at each other for a long time.
Candlelight flickered on their faces, alternating light and dark.
After a long time, Zhuge Liang stood up and stood by the window with his back on his back.As if thinking about something.
There were three partridge cries outside the window.Zhou Yu knew that it was He Sun He's secret signal.
"...I should go." Zhou Yu pulled her hair and said with a faint smile: "My companion has returned from Yingchuan... No matter what the result is, I have to go to see him. After all, it's time to go back in two days. It's pretty tight." He managed to get up, pretending to be relaxed and found a piece of clothing from Zhuge Liang's closet, and said, "I'm afraid you threw my clothes away? Then wear yours."
Zhuge Liang was still standing there, but turned around to look at him.
After Zhou Yu got dressed, she also stood by the window and pushed it open.
"You can't go out through the main entrance, I'll just go here." After speaking, he looked up at him and said for a long time, "Kong Ming, I forced you."
The night wind blew his hair.
Zhuge Liang looked at him.
Just when Zhou Yu was about to turn around and go out, he grabbed his arm.
Zhou Yu turned around in surprise, "What's wrong?"
Zhuge Liang looked at him, gritted his teeth, and finally let go.
"……nothing."
Sun He jumped to the window and handed him the black cloak.Zhou Yu put it on and disappeared by the window.
In fact, what Zhuge Liang wanted to ask just now was Zhou Yu's injury.
He wanted to know if he did the injury himself.
But in the end, he still couldn't speak out.
In the end, he still didn't have the courage to tell the truth from the fake.
Sun He picked Zhou Yu into the packed carriage, and then escaped according to the arranged route.
He bribed some soldiers according to Zhou Yu's previous instructions, and he only said that he was a businessman who was greedy for small profits, and he passed.
Sun He drove the car, and asked for a long time, "How is it?"
Zhou Yu sat in the car, feeling a dull pain from the abdominal injury, "Let's go with fate. Maybe it will work, maybe it won't work."
Sun He was silent for a long time, and then said again: "Is what you told him true?"
Sun He has never been a talkative person, Zhou Yu was also surprised when he asked this question.
Then he smiled and said, "Bo Hai, do you think it's real or fake?"
Sun He didn't speak again.
The sound of the rumbling wheels, the sound of horseshoes, the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, and the sound of birds are all mixed together.
The vastness of night enveloped him.
On the lonely road, he is an enemy of everyone.
71.
On the boundless plateau.
The steep mountains piled up by the loess are split by a rushing river.The sound of rumbling water, wrapped in yellow sand, rushed towards the endless east, reaching the end beyond sight.
yellow sand.
The vast plateau is flat, with only a few clumps of withered trees curled up in the wind and sand.
red sun.
Like a drop of cinnabar on the dim yellow paper of the sky, the sun is setting and the mountains are setting.Zhou Yu was dressed in dark red, standing in the golden and reddish sunset.
Unlimited depression and chill.
But with incomparable majesty and magnificence.
It is precisely because of the strangeness and danger that he can stand alone and stand out.
Lu Su stood by, "Why doesn't the governor return to the camp?"
Zhou Yu just arrived here not long ago, but he didn't return it to the account.Just sat down on the broken edge of the plateau.
Around him is a deep valley that is vertical like a knife, and below is a long rushing river.
"Waiting for someone."
The voice of the words was still too small before the voice of Longlong Jianghe, as if the mouth was about to fall apart.
Waiting for someone.Waiting for someone who doesn't know if he will come.
Zhou Yu ordered someone to spread a blanket on the ground, set up a piano table, and then sat down quietly.
The yellow sand blew onto his face, and his long hair fluttered with the wind.
sunset.Early tomorrow morning, Sun Quan's military supervisor will come here, and he can no longer act freely.All he had left was this night.
——Success or failure, all bet on Zhuge Liang.
His body is at its limit.He knows it himself.When rushing on the road last night, Zhou Yu vomited a big mouthful of blood, and Sun He was stunned at that time.But he smiled, wiped his mouth, and continued to rush back.
He was wearing dark red clothes, and the hem of his clothes kept getting blown up even when he was sitting.The rust red color used to be Sun Ce's favorite.He felt that this color was majestic and calm. Although it was red, it was unassuming, with such an incomparable dignity.
Not everyone can wear this color.Lu Su seldom sees people who dare to wear rust red.Among the few people, Zhou Yu also dressed the most tastefully.Rust red clothes, black inner shirt with fringes, a belt, and a black fox fur cape. The calmness and aura that can only be obtained after years of training are really not comparable to ordinary people.
Looking at the setting sun in the distance, Zhou Yu smiled slowly.
"I'm afraid he won't come." He said lightly, "I forced him."
If he failed to collect all three, he would not be able to find the Celestial Master.To no avail.He finally missed the opportunity.
The long wind wrapped his clothes.He moved his fingers lightly, and the water-like sound of the piano throbbed from the strings.
Sometimes warm and melodious, like whispering in the middle of the night when I was a child, warming my heart.
Sometimes it is noisy and confusing, and it seems to be struggling in pain.
Sometimes gloomy, sometimes joyful.Sometimes it's like thinking alone, and sometimes it's as decisive as a battlefield.
The Kunshan jade is broken, and the phoenix cries blood.Hibiscus weeps dew, rain hits the wall.
The ups and downs are like a story, a life.It trembled with the magnificent long river below, as if resonating, faintly forming the same song.
The thought-provoking sound of the piano and the revitalizing surging river complement each other without the sound of the waves interfering with the sound of the piano.The waves vibrated, and it seemed that they also vibrated into the hearts of the people along with the sound of the piano.
Countless longing, reluctance, joy, regret, all the joy and encouragement, love and hatred parting, seem to be washed away by the long river.Only this mighty, boundless loess, the sound of waves, this yellow sand, this sunset, this place that makes people feel lonely and magnificent.
Crushing people's hearts.
The endless relief seems to contain all the sins, all the unwillingness, and reluctance.
In this chaotic world, still maintain the clear sound of the piano.
Zhou Yu played for a long time, and everyone held their breath.
The sound of the piano stopped, as if following the long wind, along the long river, to the extreme east.In every surging sunrise and sunset, every starry night and moonlit night, beside the intertwined dead trees and beside the waterfalls of flowing jade, there is a faint sound.
——Changhe.
The red sun gradually fell to the end of the line of sight.
The setting sun, accompanied by the lingering rhyme of the sound of the piano, struck Zhou Yu.
Footsteps gradually came from behind.
Zhou Yu sat on the ground, feeling the steady, powerful and confident footsteps.
The man stopped not far from Zhou Yu.The two remained silent.
When Lu Su saw it was him, his face turned pale with shock, "Why are you? This place is heavily guarded, how could you come here—"
"I sent him here."
Zhou Yu spoke lightly, and then let out a long sigh of relief.
"--You finally came."
Standing in the wind, they all raised their voices.
Zhuge Liang smiled wryly and said, "Can I not come?" Looking at the magnificent scenery, he said with a long sigh: "The governor really broke the boat...he spent a lot of money."
He stretched out his right hand, which was holding... a tiger talisman.
——This is Zhou Yu's Tiger Talisman.
"You deliberately left this tiger talisman in my room... If I don't come today, even if you return to the camp in time within fifteen days, you will still be sentenced to death."
Zhuge Liang looked at his back and said word by word: "Then it is equivalent to me killing you with my own hands."
Zhou Yu didn't say a word.Maybe it's the default.
"I said you were cruel that day, but I just realized today," Zhuge Liang laughed angrily, with a sad voice, "You are not cruel to me...you are also cruel to yourself." He took a few steps forward and asked: "Are you not afraid that I really won't come today?"
Zhou Yu was silent for a long while before uttering two words: "I'm afraid."
Zhuge Liang looked at him.
"How can I not be afraid?" His voice was a little trance, as if he was out of his body, "But I know, if you don't come today, it's just my destiny... I won't blame you." He stood up, slowly Turning to the opposite side of Zhuge Liang, he said, "I'm sorry for you."
When Zhuge Liang heard these six words, his heart felt as uncomfortable as if a piece of cold ice had been dug in.
Although they stood facing each other, they were far apart.
Like between them, those insurmountable things.
Zhou Yu was against the wind, and his long hair and robe were blown up.Standing in the sunset against the light, the sky is full of golden yellow and fiery red, absolutely vast and barren, with an irresistible heartbeat.
They stood there quietly, waiting for the same answer.Zhuge Liang didn't say anything, and Zhou Yu didn't ask.
Watching the red sun being swallowed by the earth together.
"Do you think I brought what you wanted today?"
Zhou Yu looked at him, shook his head truthfully, and replied, "...I don't know."
Zhuge Liang looked at him with no sadness or joy on his face, "Do you want me to bring it here?"
Zhou Yu slightly raised his eyes and nodded. "...I... naturally hope."
Zhuge Liang raised his head, looked at the boundless sky, and let out a long sigh.
Then the eyes fixed on him again.
"I give you this thing today to remind you." He looked into his black jade-like eyes and said word by word, "I am not a man who disappoints you."
Zhou Yu was shocked when he heard this.
As if being strangled by someone, Zhou Yu was too shocked to speak a word.The blood faded from the thin lips, trembling slightly.
"I don't want anything in return." Zhuge Liang took out the thing that caught Zhou Yu's soul from his arms, then bent down slowly, and pressed a stone to the ground.
"You have to remember..." He straightened up, looked at him and said slowly, "You will always owe me."
The long wind blew Zhuge Liang's hair, revealing his firm forehead and temples.
He finally bloody uprooted that thing from his heart.
"Let me do the talking this time." Zhuge Liang smiled, looking at the tents in the distance and the flags being blown, "'The next time we meet, we will be enemies'."
——he could finally say those words.
No matter what was in his heart, he was finally able to say this sentence in his mouth.
He didn't wait for Zhou Yu's reply, turned around and left.
Zhou Yu froze there, and before he could make a sound when he opened his mouth, Zhuge Liang froze for a moment, turned his head and said, "What's the name of that song just now?"
It was played impromptu by Zhou Yu without a name.Seeing and asking, Zhou Yu said slowly: "'Changhe'."
Zhuge Liang nodded slightly, and murmured: "...'Changhe'...what a 'Changhe'."
As soon as the voice fell, he turned and left.
Only Zhou Yu was left with a back view.
He will not tell Zhou Yu that Liu Bei and him have been jealous of each other for a long time, even this mezzanine is not so easy to get.
Liu Bei knew what he was thinking, so he would not put this silk book in his hands.
It was this mezzanine that he forced with his sword.
In the end, he betrayed his lord, his country, and his people.
But these things, he will never tell Zhou Yu.
Zhuge Liang is still Zhuge Liang after all.He has something he can't let go of.
After Zhuge Liang left for a long time, Zhou Yu recovered from all the sudden changes and went there to pick up the things Zhuge Liang left behind.
Zhou Yu was slightly taken aback when he saw the thing pressed down by the stone.
Then I was overwhelmed by infinite sadness.
Under the stone is not only the interlayer of the silk book.
There is also a feather fan.
Zhou Yu is very familiar with this lupine.He has held it for many years, and he knows every line on it like the back of his hand.
He gently picked it up, stroking every place on it.
That line of writing is still there.It may be the relationship between being held in the hand day and night, it is slightly shallower, and the bamboo fan handle is also more rounded.
—— Zhuge Liang eventually returned such things to him.
Zhou Yu held him like holding Zhuge Liang's broken feelings.
He looked at the fan and felt that his eyes were sour and tears were about to fall.
He hadn't felt this way for a long time.The tears that really flowed from his heart had already been shed ten years ago.
He looked at the fan, staring in the wind, above the waves, in the yellow sand all over the sky.
The last tear in the eye socket failed to fall.Just like that dissipated in this wind and sand.
I can't find it anymore.
72.
Zhou Yu stood there for a long time.It wasn't until Zhuge Liang's figure disappeared into a dot in the yellow sand that he sighed, turned and walked back.
Seeing that Zhuge Liang suddenly appeared here, Lu Su knew that something was wrong, and estimated that it was probably related to what Zhou Yu had done before, so he dismissed the others and took a few steps back.When Zhuge Liang left, he didn't say a word.
"Captain?"
Half of the red sun has been swallowed by the earth, and the rest of it generally looks more and more red.
Zhou Yu picked up the things Zhuge Liang gave, then looked into the distance and said, "I'm sorry, Zijing, I'm afraid I have to leave again."
Lu Su was startled, "How can that be done? The military supervisor will arrive tomorrow morning, and leaving the camp now is tantamount to asking for death. Commander, this is absolutely impossible."
But Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "Once the warlords are here, I can no longer act on my own... This matter is extremely important, and there is no room for delay." He looked at the sky, and the orange sunset enveloped him, " I've made up my mind, so I don't need to persuade you anymore."
Lu Su knew that once Zhou Yu said this sentence, it would really not be changed.He could only nod his head and said, "Then I... must help the governor."
Zhou Yu glanced at him and said with a smile: "Help me for what? Helping me is to cover up my commanding general who fled the battle. Is there any good fruit to eat? If the military supervisor asks, you should tell the truth. I have my way. "After he finished speaking, he tapped his forehead, and suddenly said: "I almost forgot. This is the tiger charm, you hold it for me first. And if I don't come back after three days, I will submit the letter that I asked you to keep. To the lord." He looked in the direction of the capital, then turned to leave.
Lu Su anxiously said: "Captain! This tiger talisman will never be obtained by the general—"
Zhou Yu didn't seem to take it seriously, "Why are you nervous? I said I asked you to take it for me, but I didn't say I wouldn't take it back." He waved his hand, ignored Lu Su's call, and went straight to find the horse.
There is nothing he can do.Once he doesn't come back, no one can save him.
He has always been fond of Lu Su, and he cultivated it attentively.Once something happens to him, there is still him who can take over from him.What he gave Lu Su was also a suicide note he had prepared a long time ago... In this regard, he was very open-minded.
He knows what kind of state his body is in now.So he has no time to hesitate.
Rejecting Sun He's request to travel with him, Zhou Yu hurried back to Liang Yunguan overnight alone.
By the time it arrived, it was almost sunrise on the second day.The night before sunrise was extraordinarily dark.When Zhou Yu was on his way, the feeling of being alone and shrouded in darkness really made him feel uncertain about his future.
When he arrived at Liang Yunguan, he looked around, but he didn't see anything.
Walking up more than 1000 steps, he thought he would be more or less excited, but he became more and more indifferent as he walked.
The further up the mountain, the more I feel that there is a faint fire.When they got to the top of the mountain, they found nearly twenty disciples waiting here holding torches.
Zhou Yu looked around, and immediately a Taoist stood up and gave a salute: "Poverty Taoist Xuanchun, I have been waiting here with all my disciples for a long time."
Zhou Yu returned the salute, and said with a smile, "Then please trouble the Taoist priest." As he spoke, he made a gesture of "leading the way".
The Taoist smiled, turned around and walked inside.The little Taoist priests around him didn't mutter anything like last time, they all quietly followed the Taoist priest on both sides, Zhou Yu's side.
Floating clouds cover the moon, and Liang Yun watches the shadows of trees whirling, which is even more mysterious in the night.
