Lei Yue Longmen

The three-month period was approaching in the blink of an eye, and since the morning of this day, Li Jingchen has been restless, and his hands trembling repeatedly while grading papers.Had to return to the harem early.Cen Zhuo comforted her all morning, "You have performed very well. The imperial doctor also said that your Qi and blood have never been better in the past three months. It will definitely be fine. Don't worry!" Li Jingzhu was still nervous. Cen Zhu accompanied her to swim in the lake for a while, admiring the autumn scenery.Finally, at night, Empress Jiang arrived as scheduled. Seeing the two of them supporting each other, their smiles had a lot more meaning.

Same as last time, they checked them one by one. When Li Jingchen came out, Cen Zhu was so nervous that his palms were sweating, but he didn't dare to ask, for fear of adding to her worries.

Not long after, Jiang Hou came out empty-handed, smiled and said to the two: "Congratulations, the Shuangkun tube is ready to use."

Both of them have a dreamlike feeling.

After returning to the bedroom, he couldn't wait to open the black box, and Cen Zhu saw two crystal-like transparent long tubes, about the thickness of a little finger and as long as a palm.The bottom is in the shape of an arc, and the port is sealed with a transparent plug.Each long tube is half-full of "water", and the amplitude of the "water surface" is very small when shaken, and it is obviously thicker than water, more like egg white.

"Is this the Shuangkun tube? So it's one for each person." Cen Zhu was full of curiosity.And she found that when the pair of kun tubes were placed horizontally, the "water" at the bottom of the tubes would not flow to the upper half, as if the middle was blocked by a transparent diaphragm.Only after reading the use items on the top layer of the box did I know that this layer of film has a scientific name of "imitation bed".

It is said that when the primal egg is drawn out, it will first fall on this "bed". If it is an unhealthy primal egg, it will be melted by the "bed" immediately, and the healthy primal egg will pass through this "bed" ", into the liquid below.This is why the wife insists on letting them take care of their bodies? Because an unhealthy body is more likely to produce unhealthy eggs.

Seeing that Li Jingchen's hand holding the entry was trembling, Cen Man said to her, "Relax, relax, take a deep breath, let me come first, and watch carefully."

"No, you lie down first. I'll come." Li Jingbai said sincerely, confidently memorizing every word in the entry in his mind, exhaled a few breaths, and his eyes became firmer and gentler than ever before.

After taking out the primordial egg, the upper half has been filled with some transparent liquid.Cen Zhu was a little shy and couldn't bear to look directly at him.Li Jingchen's face was also flushed, but she pretended not to notice it calmly, put the stopper on solemnly, and together with Cen Zhuo, stared at the Kun pipe for a moment to observe quietly.

The "bed" membrane separated the two different liquids. After about a century, a small but definitely observable blue light bounced from the "bed", from the lower half The top of part of the liquid sank slowly, sank all the way to the bottom and floated up again, and finally hung in the center of the liquid.According to the entry, this means that the primordial egg has successfully broken through the bed membrane and was captured by the fluorescent powder in the liquid.Although it was only a faint light, and there seemed to be nothing inside, Cen Zhu seemed to see the source of life, and his mood became uncontrollably excited.

She used another Kun tube to do the same thing to Li Jingxuan. When the same blue light bounced off the "bed", Cen Zhuo kissed her quietly. Li Jingxuan was so excited that his eyes wet instantly.

Cen Zhu juxtaposed the two Kun tubes, trying to compare whose light was brighter, but found that the two lights were approaching each other in unison, separated by two crystal tube walls, jumping up and down when you jumped, and I jumped up and down, very naughty , but always keep the closest distance to each other.My heart suddenly softened to the extreme.

Cen Zhu let out a "huh" sound, "I can't wait so impatiently, it looks like I'm in a hurry."

Li Jingchen gave her a blank look, then clasped her hand tightly, and asked her with bright eyes, "Cen Zhuo, once they meet, they will become a complete little life, and you will protect me like you did. Guard her forever?"

"Of course. I will guard her, just like guarding you. No, not guarding, but defending. Until death."

"Me too."

Li Jing's mother's love overflowed, and she choked up instantly.Before Cen Zhu couldn't imagine what it would be like for Li Jing to be a mother, whether she would be as fierce as Queen Lan Que, but now that she thinks about it, I'm afraid it's too much to worry about.As for Her Majesty's sentimentality and motherly kindness, I'm afraid she will spoil her future daughter to no end?

Li Jingchen rubbed his eyes, continued to follow the instructions in the entry, poured out the useless liquid in the long tube, wiped it carefully, plugged it, and carefully put it back into the black box.The next morning, he came to see Empress Jiang with his hands in his arms.Seeing that both of them had dark circles on their faces, Jiang Hou asked, "Didn't sleep all night?" Cen Zhu said embarrassingly, "I really couldn't sleep. Actually, I wanted to come over last night, and I was afraid of disturbing Madam. We have already done it." alright."

"Then give it to me!"

Jiang Hou took the box calmly and ordered, "Close the curtains."

Cen Zhuo did as he said, the tower was well sealed, and the first floor needed to be lit during the day because of the shade of the trees.When the curtains were lowered, the whole hall went dark.A candle was lit on the table.Jiang Hou opened the box, looked at it, nodded and said, "It looks very healthy."

Cen Zhu raised the corners of his mouth proudly, "That's right, we have paid too much in the past three months." Li Jingzhu stomped on her quietly, telling her not to say a word, Cen Zhu turned his head and stared, didn't he? ?

Jiang Hou pretended not to hear, and took out a red box from behind the seat, and put a long transparent tube in it, but this long tube was empty, and it was longer than the two of hers before, about There is one and a half slaps.Empress Jiang called it "He Guan Guan". As the name suggests, it is a container for two primal eggs to meet.Cen Zhu understood immediately, and looked excitedly at Jiang Hou, who fixed He Guanguan on the table with a triangular bracket.

She herself put on a kind of fur glove, used tweezers to draw a circle on the film of the Kun tube, and gently broke it with both hands, and the Kun tube was broken into two pieces.Then pinch the part containing the liquid and blue light, and gently pour it into the matching tube.Like a bubble, that blue gleam fell into the long pipe with the turbulent water flow, spun around in it, bumped for a while, and finally stabilized.Cen Zhu thought, if it was conscious, it would probably be fainted by this.Then, the liquid in the second Kun tube was also poured into the long tube.Before falling, Empress Jiang deliberately paused for a while so that the two of them could see clearly.As the trickle poured in, the blue light at the bottom was pushed up again, bumping around in a daze.Cen Zhu just substituted it for a while, and felt that it was really pitiful. If he was tossed like this, he would probably get up and scold his mother.

The two blue lights finally met in the same long tube. Cen Zhuo originally thought that the two who were "longing for days and nights" could not wait to embrace each other, and staged a touching reunion scene.In fact, at the beginning, they did run towards each other, but they bounced away in less than a blink of an eye.After that, the scenes of approaching and bouncing away were repeated all the time, but they did not merge with each other.It looks like two very experienced fighters.After hitting it for a while, I came back to fix it, and even circled around the long tube.

"Hey, are they practicing Tai Chi?"

Li Jingchen is also a little incompetent, why are these two Yuan eggs not like lovers, but enemies?There must be something wrong.

Jiang Hou calmly said: "The original egg and the original egg are destined not to fuse naturally, because they both naturally want to occupy the dominant part of life and pass on more information about themselves to the next generation. For this reason, they will fight each other, compete, and force each other. The other party submits until it completely devours the other party. But in fact, this cannot create life. The creation of life requires both parties to abandon a part of themselves at the same time to complete the fusion of each other. In the fusion of the original egg and the original essence, this? The steps of discarding are set in advance, so they fuse very quickly, without external force. But the original egg and the original egg are not, they are two evenly matched individuals, and usually no one will be willing? If you admit defeat, the ending is often that one side is completely wiped out by the other side, and the remaining side falls alone. There is no end to death.”

Cen Zhu felt chilled when he heard this, "We knew it would happen, why didn't we both give in?"

Jiang Hou said indifferently: "Everyone makes concessions and obtains imperfect but beneficial results for both parties. This is the thinking and choice that humans only have. Their instinct is to expand. If there is no human intervention, they will always be unable to escape. ? A fate that hurts both sides."

Cen Zhu sighed for a while, "How about human intervention?"

"It's very simple, help them give up a part of themselves." Jiang Hou said without knowing where to take out a small bottle, unplugged it, and poured a drop of transparent liquid into the long tube, which seemed to be the same as The liquid in the long tube was the same, but after that drop of liquid entered the long tube, the two rays of light that were still fighting for life and death suddenly and quickly stuck together.

Cen Zhu didn't know what happened, but his pupils narrowed subtly, and he sighed meaningfully: "Sure enough, if you want to unite two guys who don't like each other, you have to create a common enemy for them .”

Since the "external force" intervened, the two rays of light have never been separated again.It is said that they are undergoing a fierce fusion.That drop of liquid has a "corrosion" effect on them, and only by merging into a living individual can they resist the erosion of this external force.Cen Zhu empathized with their miserable situation,

"It's so pitiful, who told you not to hug each other early to keep warm?"

It is said that the fusion process takes an hour or two. Cen Zhuoleng didn't notice the so-called "intense fusion" at all, but his waist was lying there all the time, so sore that he didn't look like his own anymore. Stand up quickly to loosen your muscles and bones.

And? Li Jingchen stared at the light in the long tube without blinking the whole time, his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of wet fog under the candlelight.She cocked her mouth, went to move a round stool, placed it beside her legs, and gently pressed her to sit down.

As for Jiang Hou, he was no longer here. Cen Zhu looked up the stairs. This Yuqing Tower was shaped like a square tower.I don't know which ring she is in now?This lady always comes and goes like a shadow, which is really elusive.

After about an hour, Jiang Hou slowly came down from the stairs.Facing the uncontrollable smiles of the two, they also showed a knowing smile.The blue light in the fusion tube was more than ten times brighter than before, which declared that the fusion of the two parties was completed.A brand new little life has appeared in this world. Although it is only the initial form of life, if there is no accident, she will carve her own life cycle on this long time axis.

Empress Jiang solemnly handed over the red box containing the little life to Cen and Li, "Put it in the ice room, and it can survive for ten years. During the ten years, you can choose any time to give birth to it. The specific steps , I still wrote it on the top of the box. I think it shouldn’t be a problem for you.”

"Thank you ma'am!" Cen Zhu smiled happily.

"Next, it's time for me to say goodbye to you."

Li Jingchen was taken aback after hearing this, "Where is the ancestor going?"

"Maybe it's the south, maybe it's the north, maybe it's the Central Plains, maybe it's another country. Maybe it's not going anywhere. Maybe it's just going back to sleep."

Cen Zhu was very sad when he heard the words, and suddenly remembered, "Madam, wait a minute, I brought something for you, just wait, I will go get it right away."

She ran out in a hurry, leaving Jiang Hou and Li Jingchen still standing in the forest.Li Jingchen pursed his lips, as if he had something to say.Jiang Hou still said: "There is no need to say thank you between you and me. I also appreciate your kindness. The next road is up to you. The country is dying and devastated. In this life, you are destined to work hard. The faults of everyone in the previous life may need to be borne by you alone. I am very relieved to see someone accompany you to bear the burden. Remember that suffering in the world is not terrible. As long as you support each other, there is no barrier that cannot be overcome. .”

When Cen Zhu handed over the picture of sailing a boat on the autumn water to Jiang Hou, she took a look and said, "That's right, this was 40 years ago, when Qingyuan was still young, and Chuyang was still alive." She sighed He took a deep breath, "Xiang Ming should like this painting very much. His master is on it. Thank you very much."

Cen Zhuo smiled shyly, very embarrassed.When she was returning upstairs, Cen Zhu suddenly called her, "By the way, madam, I still want to ask, did you heal my hand?"

Jiang Hou smiled slightly, "The last time I treated your arrow wound, I took a look at your hand. Because I was not sure about the result, I was afraid that you would be disappointed, so I didn't tell you in advance. When I saw you last time, I guessed that you were probably fine. Well, it’s finally comforting in my heart.”

Cen Zhu bowed deeply to her, feeling that it was not enough to express his gratitude, so he knelt on the ground and bowed to her again, "Madam, I want to use the qin you gave me to play a song for you, is that okay?"

"Yes, it's a great honor." The joy that suddenly appeared in Jiang Hou's eyes was very contagious, and Cen Zhu was inexplicably moved.She already had a hunch that maybe this was the last time she would see her in this life.

So, in this Yuqing building, Cen Zhu picked up the long-lost zither again, and, like the boatman back then, sent Mrs. Li a farewell zither.Also officially ushered in his new life.

At the end of the song, there is still a sad wind in the tall wood, but the other party has long since disappeared.

Li Jing's hand was on her shoulder, and Cen Zhu's face was full of tears before he knew it.

They are all just passers-by in her life. Maybe in the next hundred years, when she returns to Yuqing Tower, she will accidentally remember that there were two young people here who played a cheerful song for her. piano sound.And sincerely pray to heaven, I hope she will not be lonely in this life.
