red tomb

Chapter 60

All three of them gasped involuntarily.It looks and sounds beautiful, but it really can't be touched!Du Ying is a wood spirit, and he can survive for 400 years; they and their family and friends are still mortals!

"Then what should we do now?" Jin Sheng asked, feeling a bit pained.As a person who firmly believes that after death, he should be burned to ashes and can be used as fertilizer for flowers, of course he does not want to live for hundreds of years; but the problem is that when he is covered in dust, he can't get close to seeing a clear spring... What the hell Where is this Buddha's light? Are you planning to kill them?

Jiang Siqi was also a little anxious.Or, closer to resentment. "No way," he said, "we'd better get out of here quickly, so maybe we can find another oasis before dark."

Although the probability of this happening is not high, it is better than standing still - their time is very precious.So the few people took a last look at the oasis shrouded in Buddha's light, and set foot on the sandy road again.

"But having said that..." After bouncing between the humps for more than ten minutes, Su You suddenly thought of a question: "You haven't told us yet, why is there a Buddha's light there? Du Ying?" He asked while turning his head look.

"Yeah, it's impossible to appear there for no reason, right?" Jiang Siqi also turned his head, "Wouldn't it be bad if someone ran in without knowing it? Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case!"

Du Ying didn't speak for a while.According to his thinking, he doesn't think anyone can get here; but the problem is that this is just his conjecture, he has no proof.And he didn't know enough about the Buddha's light.

"What are you thinking?" Jin Sheng snorted suddenly, "Without a map to guide, no one would come here? Besides," he looked at the unchanging Huangsha Gobi in the distance, "don't you really want to touch it all the way? To that strange light?"

What nonsense... Su You curled his lips.No one wants to encounter strange things, but their thinking has been twisted recently!

Jiang Siqi basically had the same reaction as Su You, only Du Ying quietly took another look at Jin Sheng.Is it his illusion?The other party is helping him out?

"Then we can only hope that the last oasis was by chance." Su You finally concluded. "Since it is a precious thing, it should not be too common."

But doubts have remained in everyone's minds.Even if it was accidental, why was it born here instead of somewhere else?They are looking for the ancient capital of the former Jin Dynasty, what does Buddha's light have to do with it?

On this day, as far as the eye can see, there is a sea of ​​sand that has already been seen.Probably because they were lucky, before the sun really set, a leeward col appeared in the field of vision.In order not to be swept away by the strong wind at night, several people hurried and finally arrived at the destination before the chilling night wind blew.

When they were halfway up the nearby mountain, they realized that it was not just a mountain depression.

"Brother, I seem to be dazzled." Jiang Siqile stopped the camel, his eyes straightened, "Why did I see a Zhuangzi? Or the Jiangnan style?"

"I'm afraid you're not the only one dazzled." Jin Sheng said dryly, because he also saw the same scene——

It is a small manor house with a delicate gate and a delicate garden. A few peach blossoms poke out their heads from the continuous four-petaled patterned windows.Behind the sparse forest, you can faintly see the round moon gate, which is the porch commonly used in Suzhou and Hangzhou gardens, forming a scene within the scene.

In fact, they were still some distance away from Zhuangzi, at least they couldn't even read the words on the plaque on the gate clearly.But this point of Peach Blossom is unmistakable, because the bright light pink and emerald green are impossible to be mistaken in the current environment.

"Why do I suddenly have the feeling of encountering a monster while studying Buddhist scriptures in the West?" Su You said, letting the camel take a few steps forward cautiously.

Several people watched him together.This cold joke is too bad, you must know that there is a tree demon among them!

"You guys wait here for a while, I'll go and have a look first." Du Ying volunteered again.But in fact, what he said was not a question sentence, because he had already got off the camel when he said it, and it seemed that he planned to walk there.

"It's not good to be alone, is it?" Su Yu was about to go down, but someone moved faster than him——

Jin Sheng's feet had already landed on the sand. "I'll go and have a look too." He raised his face and said to Su Yu, "Help me keep an eye on the camel."

Su You took the other rein in a daze, and didn't come back to it until the two of them had walked a certain distance. "Xiao Qi," he turned his head to ask for advice, "do you think that falling flowers are intentional, but flowing water is ruthless?"

"Still meddling in other people's business at this time?" Jiang Siqi glared at him.

"No, what's the matter?" Su You freed one hand and scratched his head, "Now I wonder if what I did is correct..."

"What are you doing?" Jiang Siqi was suspicious.

Su You pushed harder and frowned. "You know it too. Something seems to have happened between them. Jin Sheng has always been very serious, so I don't think he will let go easily... Now it seems that I should persuade him?"

"Persuade him?" Jiang Siqi repeated, and then understood: "Do you think you should let him give up?"

"It's not like that..." Su You heard the disapproval in the words, and quickly explained: "I'm not saying that Du Ying is not worth it... But, think about it, Du Ying didn't react at all when he touched the Buddha's light just now; What about Jin Sheng? Once he enters and exits, he may become an old man immediately!"

Jiang Siqi pursed his lips tightly.Su You didn't say it very directly, but it was enough; even if love can transcend the racial differences between humans and wooden spirits, who can transcend time?If between lovers, one is doomed to watch the other grow old, or even die, is it just torture?Is it better not to even start?

"That's their business." Even though he said that, Jiang Siqi gritted his teeth, "Only they can choose and make judgments about whether it is worth it or whether they are willing or not."

Su You sighed heavily. "You're right, so I just thought about it." He lightly tightened the reins and let the camel back, just standing side by side with Jiang Siqi. "The biggest hope right now is that nothing will happen to them."

In the twilight, Jiang Siqi looked sideways at Su You, and then stretched out a hand to grab his brother.Seeing it with downcast eyes, Su Yu didn't say anything, just shook it back hard.

As for Du Ying and Jin Sheng, they walked towards Zhuangzi one after the other without saying a word.

Du Ying thought that Jin Sheng would not miss any chance to ridicule him (or if he was lucky, Jin Sheng would explain to him what happened just now), but Jin Sheng was unexpectedly quiet.Not to mention the sound of breathing, even the footsteps are so light that they are almost indistinguishable.He lowered his eyes and raised them again, comforting himself in his heart that this is also a good thing, no matter for either of them.

As for Jin Sheng, he is actually very irritable now.It should probably be said that they are hard-core brothers who share the same bed. The thinking circuits of him and Su You collided at the same time this time: he only thought about the present before, did he think about the future?Do-young's lifespan is obviously longer than his, and much longer, so is it really a good idea for them to be together?

With this completely different idea in mind, the two arrived near the gate one by one.As dusk fell, Jin Sheng turned on the flashlight with a snap, and took a picture around him.

The estate looks new.Not only the peach blossoms are in full bloom, but even the plaque on the door is spotless.There are stone carvings on both sides of the door, not the usual lions, but a big three-tailed bird that they have seen many times before.

"Green Harrier..." Du Ying let out a light breath.It was Qingyao, which meant that they were on the right track.

Jin Sheng's attention was not in the same direction as him. "'Longhuazhuang'," he read out the words engraved on the plaque, deeply feeling that he had succeeded in supplementing the characters of the former Qin Dynasty. "Where is this place?" Jiangnan gardens appeared in the Saibei Desert. It's too weird, okay? ?Moreover, if he didn't have auditory hallucinations, there seemed to be the sound of a stream gurgling inside?

"It looks like an ordinary manor," Du Ying said, "it's the kind you usually go on holiday."

"It's enough to enjoy being built here." Jin Sheng clicked his tongue twice.He swung the flashlight up and down, hoping to spot something unusual, but found nothing.Then he took a step forward, trying to push the door.

This action is stuck in half.Just when his fingers were about to touch the door knocker, a hand in the horizontal bar stopped him.

"I'll do it." Du Ying said softly, and his other hand shook in the air.

The door opened slowly.With its movement, a burst of refreshing floral fragrance became more obvious, directly drilling into people's noses.

This breath of fresh water is undoubtedly a kind of enjoyment for travelers who have trekked in the desert for several days.But Jin Sheng didn't care at all, he just glared angrily at the hand that grabbed him.

"Sorry, I was in a hurry." Du Ying hurriedly apologized, and let go at the same time.He was worried that Jin Sheng would get hurt in front of him, how could he say it?

But Jin Sheng didn't let his action succeed.He clasped his backhand and grabbed the hand that was about to slip away. "I know what I'm doing, you..." It's enough to take care of yourself!

It was absolutely hurtful, but he couldn't finish it.Because it is impossible for Su You and Jiang Siqi to stay obediently in the distance and watch them take risks, and they have already come close at this time.

"What are you doing?" Su You asked loudly, turning over and falling to the ground at the same time. "It's really getting dark, let's just go in together." He pointed to the dark sky that had begun to gather sandstorms in the distance, "Anyway, there are only two roads to choose from, and the other is to be buried to death."

Jin Sheng loosened his hand.This is his private matter, he doesn't want to quarrel with Du Ying in front of Su You and Jiang Siqi. "Nothing," he said, "then do as you say."

While talking, Jiang Siqi also got off the camel.He took a few steps closer and looked at the faces of Jin Sheng and Du Ying one by one, but he didn't express any opinions. "That's right, brother, let's go."
