Peach Blossom Legend 古龙 2013Words 2018-03-12
When Chu Liuxiang came back holding the shark fin, Zhang Jiejie had disappeared. Although her person is gone, her demeanor, her feelings, and her sweetness seem to still remain on the pillow, in the quilt, and in every corner of the room. In Chu Liuxiang's heart, eyes, and mind, she can still feel her presence. She will be back soon.It must be soon. Chu Liuxiang turned over, relaxed her limbs as much as possible, and enjoyed the lingering fragrance on the pillow. He was filled with warmth and contentment. Because he could still breathe her, still feel her. Because he knew she would definitely come back.

So even the lonely waiting has become a kind of sweet enjoyment. There is a hair on the pillow. It was her hair, long, soft, and shiny, like her love thread. He wrapped his hair tightly around his fingers, and he also wrapped his love tightly around his heart. But she didn't come back. The pillow was already cold, and the quilt was already cold, but she still hadn't come back. The long night is over, the dawn has dyed the white window paper, and she still hasn't come back. He fell asleep, woke up again, tossed and turned.She still hasn't come back. Although the light had come, the room suddenly became unspeakably cold and lonely.

Where has she gone?Why don't you come back? "why why?……" Chu Liuxiang couldn't explain it, nor could she imagine it. "Has she disappeared from the world since then? Will I never see her again?" He couldn't believe it, couldn't believe it, and refused to believe it. "This can never be true!" "I can definitely wait until she comes back, I can!" But he didn't wait. Time passed so slowly, maddeningly slow, that every time the shadow of the sun moved, every time the wind blew the window, he thought it was her coming back. But when dusk fell on the earth again, he still didn't see her shadow.

"Did she really leave without saying goodbye?" "Could it be that her sweet words and vows are just to leave me with a pain that I will never forget?" "Why did she do this? Why did she lie to me?" Chu Liuxiang is not a sentimental person at all, she can take everything lightly. Whether it's getting together or parting, he has always been very open-minded. Because life is already so short, how long can we get together?How long can parting be? Since you come in a hurry, and since you go in a hurry, why take it so seriously? But now, he knew he was wrong.

Some people are like shooting stars, even if they meet for a moment, dazzling sparks will burst out. Although the sparks are extinguished sometimes, the impact and shock caused by it suddenly will never be forgotten, and sometimes it can even make you suffer for the rest of your life. Sometimes that can even destroy you. Although Chu Liuxiang was open-minded, he was not a heartless person. Maybe it's because his affection is too much, too strong, and it can't be controlled once it happens, so he always pretends to be ruthless. But who can be truly heartless? Chu Liuxiang stood up slowly, and walked slowly to the window.

Open the window, the sky is full of sunset. The sunset glow all over the sky suddenly poured into his heart, and he was so excited that his whole body trembled. "No matter where she is, I must find her." He vowed to find her and ask her clearly! But where to find it? Is she at the end of the sky?Is it in the corner of the sea?Or between the illusory clouds and mountains? Does anyone know where she came from?No one knows where she went? Maybe she wasn't from this world at all. Chu Liuxiang had a hard time finding it. He has gone to every place she has been. Sometimes she appeared on the hill, sometimes she appeared in the deep world, sometimes she even appeared in the basin of water.

How can you find Chu Liuxiang? He was thinner and tired, and his face had lost the old look that would make enemies terrified and girls fascinated. But he doesn't care. Because his real pain is in his heart. He had never known such profound pain in the world. "Is it true that no one in the world knows her whereabouts?" He suddenly thought of fourth master Jin. He looked for it at once, and after another evening, he came to the high wall again. The same night, the same moon, but his heart is completely different. Thinking of that night, when she took his hand and came here, his heart seemed to suddenly become empty, and his whole body seemed to become empty, with nowhere to go.

He didn't grab the top of the wall, but walked slowly along the corner. Turning the corner, you can see the gate of Jin's house. A group of monks in gray clothes and white socks walked slowly into the gate of Jin's house with lowered eyebrows. Seven or eight young novice monks followed behind them with their heads bowed, holding ritual vessels for funerals. The person who stood by the door to greet him was an old man with white hair and a sad face. This old man turned out to be Fourth Master Jin. It's only been a few days, why has he aged so much? Where is his aggressive and indomitable spirit in the past now?

What terrible accident happened here? Chu Liuxiang stood and watched from a distance, and suddenly understood in her heart. The person who died must be Miss Jin, the girl who was as beautiful as a fairy but lived in hell. She had found her release at last--only death was her release. Perhaps she was happier dead than alive. But what about her father? The leader of the Jiangnan martial arts, this incomparable hero, although he holds wealth and power that can change the fate of many people, he still cannot change the fate of his daughter. Even with all his wealth and power, he still couldn't keep his only daughter alive.

This is not only his own tragedy, but also the tragedy of all human beings. Chu Liuxiang's heart sank, and sank even deeper. He was here to find fourth master Jin. But now that he saw Fourth Master Jin, he just turned around quietly and left quietly. He kept going. He suddenly found a clear running water in front of him, blocking his way. There is a moon in the sky, and there is a moon in the water. Chu Liuxiang stood there bewildered, lowered her head, and stared at the bright moon in the water bewilderedly. He suddenly felt that there was something in the world, just like the moon in the water.

There is clearly a moon in the water, and you can clearly see it, but when you try to catch it, you will not only fail, but may fall into the water. Maybe even drowned. Chu Liuxiang didn't catch the moon in the water again, because he had already caught it once. He had learned a very tragic lesson. It's just that there is still a moon in the water, and he can still see it. What about Zhang Jiejie? He never saw her again. Could it be that she, like the moon in the water, never really existed at all?
