Chapter 11 Chapter 4 The Goldfish's Smile

The cliff is straight, straight to the sky. A figure slowly emerged from the pure white clouds.A strange, weird figure. This figure seemed to be a woman, her long hair was fluttering in the wind, and her light yellow dress was also fluttering, like a goldfish in the water shaking its head and tail. Ye Kai and Su Mingming looked at the figure appearing on the cliff with suspicion.she is human?Is it a ghost?Or a legendary monster?The sun was scorching hot, but Su Mingming felt a chill emanating from the depths of her bone marrow, and her hand was unknowingly holding Ye Kai's hand tightly.

Ye Kai didn't move, his hand was holding Su Mingming's hand tightly. In a completely unfamiliar place with dangerous terrain, a "person" suddenly appeared in the best ambush. No matter who this "person" is, as long as she attacks with her palm, Ye Kai and the others will definitely have no room to parry, because now they are like snakes pinched seven inches away. And this person holding seven inches is standing among the clouds on the cliff. A blue tendon protruded from Ye Kai's forehead suddenly, and the blue tendon kept throbbing, and this tendon would only jump when he was really nervous.

Although he was looking at this "person" on the cliff, he was thinking about contingency strategies in his mind. Before he could figure out a way, the "man" on the cliff suddenly opened his arms, jumped onto the dangerous rock like a swallow, stood in the sunlight, and said loudly, "Obviously, I miss you!" Her voice is bright and cheerful, not at all like the voice of a ghost, and her person is even less like a ghost, she is a young and lively girl. After the death neck, there is a fertile plain. It is not far from the holy land of Lhasa. The goldfish's tent is set up here.

Jinyu is the girl who just appeared on the cliff, and she came to meet Su Mingming. "But I want to scare you." Goldfish's laughter was as bright as sunshine: "I don't want to scare you to death." Ye Kai was laughing, he had never seen such a bright, cheerful girl. She is not a perfect beauty, her nose is a little crooked, but her eyes are bright, and her white skin is smooth and tender. Ye Kai discovered that she actually liked to laugh, and that Su Mingming also liked to pinch her nose. Now Su Mingming is pinching her nose. "You promised me that you will never come out and run around this time." Su Mingming said, "Why did you run out again?"

Goldfish sidestep this problem handily. "Why do you always like to pinch my nose?" Goldfish asked back, "Do you want to pinch my nose to look as good as yours?" Ye laughed. Goldfish turned around and looked at him: "Who is he?" "My name is Ye Kai." Ye Kai said with a smile: "Ye Ye, happy to open." "Ye Kai?" Jinyu laughed again: "If you have a younger brother, it must be called Ye Guan." Ye Kai looked at it for a long time. "I like people who can laugh." The goldfish laughed again: "Now I'm starting to like you a little bit."

Suddenly she hugged Ye Kai just like she hugged Su Mingming just now, and kissed him on the forehead. "My sister Ming's friends are my friends." Jinyu said, "I like everyone she likes." Ye Kai's face was not red, because Jinyu's face was not red either. When she hugged him, it was like the sun shining on the earth, clear and natural, and innocent like goldfish chasing each other in the water. Ye Kai is by no means a twitchy man, he can rarely hold back what he wants to say. "I like you too." He said, "I really like you." Just when the two of them fell in love with each other, although Su Mingming who was standing aside was also smiling, a trace of regret suddenly appeared in the deepest part of her eyes.

regret?What does she regret?Regret bringing Ye Kai to Lhasa?Two or two flashes of sword light, one slashed towards the knife in the air, and the other slashed towards Fu Hongxue's throat. Zhui Fengsou's sword was finally out of its sheath, and the sword he used was actually a woman's sword. While throwing the knife with his left hand, Fu Hongxue reached into his bosom with his right hand, and took out the bag of jewels that Le Leshan had entrusted to him before his death. At this time, Zhui Fengsou's sword was less than three inches away from his throat, Fu Hongxue took a quick step back, and the bag of jewels in his right hand faced the tip of the sword.

There was a sound of "dang", followed by the sound of dripping jewels falling to the ground. A sword stabs a knife, and a sword stabs a jewel. Jewels were scattered all over the floor, and the condensed murderous aura disappeared in an instant. Zhuifengsou's hands hang down again, the two small swords are gone again, his standing posture is still the same as before he made a move, but the threatening murderous aura has disappeared without a trace. It's just that the brows seem to be much older, and his whole expression, attitude, and momentum have completely changed. ——A swordsman's sword, sometimes like money, is almost exactly the same in some respects.

Whether a swordsman has a sword in his hand is like whether a person has money, which can often change everything about them. ——If a swordsman does not have a sword in his hand, a person does not have money around him, and an empty rice bag does not have rice, they will all be unable to stand up. Fu Hongxue didn't move either, he still looked at Zhuifengsou coldly. Zhuifengsou didn't look at him again, his eyes seemed to stay on Fu Hongxue, and seemed to linger in the distance. The two stood quietly like this, after a long time, Zhuifengsou suddenly opened his mouth and said a word: "How do you know that I use two swords?"

Fu Hongxue shifted his gaze to his two hands: "Ordinary people only have the marks of sword practice on their right hand." "And you have marks on both hands," he said. "So you throw the knife to divert my sword?" "I only have this way." Fu Hongxue said flatly, "Even if you only have one hand, I'm not sure I can handle it." This is the truth, because before Zhuifengsou came, he had already cultivated his essence, energy, and spirit to the peak. Even if Fu Hongxue drew his sword as soon as they met, it would be difficult to break through his "energy".

Zhuifengsou looked at Fu Hongxue with those much older eyes, and his voice also sounded much older. "Very good, very good..." Chasing Old Man murmured, "You really have a reason to win." "I'm playing tricks, even though I was lucky enough to escape from the sword of senior, but I couldn't win." Fu Hongxue said, "Why bother, senior..." "You don't have to say it!" Zhuifengsou stared at him for a long time, but didn't say a word, turned around suddenly, and strode out the door. Fu Hongxue watched his figure go away: "Senior's demeanor is really different." Although his words were very soft, Zhui Fengshou suddenly turned his head, looked at him, was silent for a while, and finally let out a long sigh. "Victory without arrogance, humble and polite, even if it's a little cold, but what's the matter?" After Zhuifengshou said this, he turned his head and walked into the depths of the sun. San The sun was shining brightly, the ground was extremely hot, and the green grass in the garden hung its head down as if it had been scorched. Fu Hongxue picked up the jewels that had just been scattered all over the floor, wrapped them up, then walked out of the room, walked through the garden, and walked towards the corridor. In the deepest part of the corridor, there seems to be a faint white figure, hazy, seemingly absent. Fu Hongxue walked towards her slowly, towards the hazy area. Bai Yiling looked at him blankly, and seemed to be looking at the emptiness in the distance. There seemed to be a touch of sadness, a touch of complaint, and a trace of helplessness on his face. Walking in front of her, Fu Hongxue stopped. A pair of dark, deep and lonely eyes met her blank gaze. The two of them just looked at each other quietly. It took an unknown amount of time, as if it had been a century, before they heard her. Bai Yiling's voice was three parts sad, three parts complaining, and three parts helpless. "I didn't expect you to win against the old man chasing the wind." "He's not defeated." Fu Hongxue heard himself saying, "It's just that he no longer has the 'murderous spirit' that killed me." "You knew that he was going to kill you early this morning?" "I can feel it." "Then you should also know that I asked him to kill you," said Ye Bai Yiling. Fu Hongxue didn't answer this sentence, he watched silently, and after a while, he handed the bag of jewels to her. "This bag was 'taken' by Le Leshan to please you." Fu Hongxue didn't say the word "steal": "I hope you cherish it." Bai Yiling took the jewelry, but her eyes still stayed on Fu Hongxue's face : "What about you? Don't you feel anything about me?" what does it feel likeThe feeling of love?Fu Hongxue avoided the question: "I think you should have known that Le Leshan was dead?" —— Le Leshan would know that there were these jewels in Ma Fangling's room, of course, Bai Yiling had revealed it to him on purpose. ——Of course Bai Yiling also knew that Fu Hongxue would go to Ma Fangling's room to wait for the murderer last night. ——Of course she also counted that as soon as Leleshan showed up, she would definitely die. Because there is only death under Fu Hongxue's knife. Either the enemy dies, or oneself dies. The garden is scorching hot, but the promenade is overcast, gloomy like a hell of nothingness. "Only love is the purest and truest in the world." Fu Hongxue said to Bai Yiling lightly, "Maybe you are too young to know the value of love. After you have this kind of experience, you will know the true meaning of love." As soon as the words were finished, Fu Hongxue's people also disappeared among the flowers, and Bai Yiling seemed to be still standing blankly in that hazy long corridor. But if you look carefully, you can definitely see tears rolling in her eyes. "You're wrong." Bai Yiling said softly to the place where Fu Hongxue disappeared, "Even though love is the purest and truest in the world, it's also the most painful." When tears fell on Bai Yiling's cheeks, a pair of wrinkled but strong hands rested on her shoulders. Bai Yiling didn't look back, because she already knew whose comforting hand belonged. Ma Kongqun's face is also full of wrinkles, every wrinkle seems to describe the dangers and hardships he has experienced in his life, and it seems to be telling others that no matter what, he can never knock him down, even if he bends over. The waist is rested. But his eyes are peaceful, without any threatening edge, and now these eyes are staring at Bai Yiling. Pain and pity, helplessness and contradiction appeared in the peaceful eyes, and Ma Kongqun looked at Bai Yiling speechlessly. She seemed unwilling to grieve in such silence, so she spoke to him softly again. "am I wrong?" "You're right!" Ma Kongqun could only say, "What's wrong is fate." He sighed softly again: "Ten years, you still can't forget him." "Forget?" Bai Yiling smiled desolately: "Can you forget this kind of thing?" ——The saddest, oldest and deepest pain of human beings is "unforgettable". But so what?Suicide?Sinking?The tragedies in the world are often caused by "unforgettable". Why isn't Bai Yiling?The four-stone city wall stretches between the Potala Palace and the Chakpuri Mountain. The city gate is under a stupa, which contains the Buddha bones of ancient eminent monks, as well as countless mysterious and beautiful legends and myths. Through the circular arch, the hot Dazhao Temple loomed on the right of Ye Kai and the others. The palace is 40 feet high and 120 feet wide. The continuous and winding pagoda, the towering castle on the rock, the ancient monastery meditation room, stele, pavilion, and innumerable windows, dishes and curtains all look magnificent and elegant. Together, it's like a dream, not like a myth. Ye Kai seemed to be fascinated by it, he didn't expect Lhasa to be as beautiful as a dream. "Isn't it beautiful?" "How can such a scene be described by beautiful words." Ye Kai said. Su Mingming pointed to the majestic but ancient monastery on the right, and said, "That scene is the famous Dazhao Temple in Lhasa." Dazhao Temple was built by Princess Wencheng in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Tibet was still "Tubo", and Lhasa was still "Luozi City". In the fourteenth year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, "Dongzan", the prime minister of Tubo, brought countless treasures and five thousand taels of gold to Chang'an. Princess Wencheng, who uttered 'Harry Yin Fragrance Grains' and was devout to serve the Buddha", brought back to Luopo City and married their seventh generation 'Zanpu', the majestic and amazingly talented "Songtsan Gampo" . For her piety, for her beauty, he built this Dazhao Temple for her. Walking through the Dazhao Temple is the prosperous market in Lhasa. The streets here are the same as those in Jiangnan. People on the streets can be roughly divided into two types: those who live here and those who come from other places. Walking along the long street, Ye Kai immediately enjoyed the flavor that only Lhasa can taste. The smell of yogurt coming from the shops that have been blackened by oil lamps on both sides is so strong that it is almost breathless, and the bright sun and the rustling wind make people almost unable to open their eyes. But the goods displayed in the shop include piles of tea bricks from Dajian stove, mouth-watering peaches, plums, mulberries and strawberries from Tianzhu, Tibetan incense from eastern Tibet, refined metal saddles, spices from Nepal, indigo, Coral, pearls, copperware, porcelain and silk from Guannai, leather goods and amber from Mongolia, candy, musk and rice from Sikkim... These precious goods made people have to keep their eyes open. Looking at these goods and people coming and going, Ye Kai felt happy from the bottom of his heart. He likes people and excitement, and he loves this kind of unrestrained life. Simple and kind, there is no intrigue, no grievances in the world, no insidiousness and cunning, and no fighting for power and profit. Every day I quarrel with my neighbors, drink old wine, go out to work in the morning, and when I come back in the evening, a table of hot meals is ready. This kind of life is the life that every prodigal son yearns for most, but it is the farthest dream from them. Unreachable like clouds in the sky. "Do you like this place?" Goldfish asked Ye Kai. Ye Kai nodded, he could only click, no one could dislike this place. "Have you been to this place before?" Goldfish asked again. Ye Kai shook his head, he had never been here before, if he had been, he probably wouldn't have left. Jinyu suddenly took Ye Kai's hand, as if she was holding a lover's hand: "I'll take you to play." "Where are we going to play?" "Go to all the fun places." Jinyu smiled brightly; Su Mingming's complexion became more and more ugly. Fortunately, there was a shout from the long street at this time: "Sister Mingming, you are back!" Ye Kai turned his head and saw a group of eleven or twelve-year-olds Children rushed over, male and female, tall and short, fat and thin, and there seemed to be one limping. Young, lively and energetic children are also Ye Kai's favorite.He saw this group of children quickly surrounded Su Mingming, and everyone was rushing to speak first. "Sister Mingming, when did you come back?" "Sister Mingming, why did you go there for so long?" "Sister Mingming, if you're not here, no one will take us to play!" Su Mingming first smiled and touched everyone's heads, then looked at the lame child and said, "I'm not here, sister Jinyu is here!" "But Miss Jinyu has to do things sometimes!" said the lame boy, "She can't take us to play all day long." "I don't do anything, so where do you get food?" Goldfish said with a smile, "Why are you making a small report!" "No." A little girl who was a bit fatter said, "We just miss sister Mingming very much." "So you don't miss me?" Jinyu deliberately pretended to be angry. The fat girl immediately hugged the goldfish and said coquettishly, "Of course we miss you too!" "I miss you." Goldfish smiled again: "I miss my candy." Seeing such a group of cute children, no one would not like it or not smile, and Ye Kai also smiled. When he smiled, the group of children opened their eyes wide open as if they had just seen him. "Who is he?" A taller boy asked Su Mingming, "Is it your new boyfriend?" "My name is Ye Kai." When Ye Kai wanted to continue talking, Jinyu interrupted him. "Leaves of leaves, bloom happily." Goldfish said with a smile, "He is the guest brought by Sister Mingming this time." As soon as they heard that it was sister Mingming's guest, several boys came over to say hello. "My name is Younan." The taller boy said, "I'm their eldest brother." "Nonsense, you were born more than ten days later than me, he's just a little taller." The limping boy said, "My name is Xiaohua, and I'm the oldest one." "Hello." Ye Kai said laughingly. People who like to laugh easily mingle with each other. When Su Mingming saw this group of children, the ugly face just disappeared. She looked at each child and said, "Where is Yucheng?" Su Mingming asked: " Why didn't you see Yucheng coming?" A group of children who were originally full of smiles, after hearing her words, everyone fell silent, and the smiles turned into sadness and fear. Ye Kai saw that the expressions on their faces suddenly changed so quickly, and when he was feeling puzzled, he heard Su Mingming ask again: "What happened?" Every child, look at me, and I look at you. After a glance, some have lowered their heads to look at their shoes. "Tell me, what happened?" Su Mingming turned to look at the goldfish: "What's going on here?" "I don't know either." Goldfish opened his eyes wide: "I saw him playing with everyone last night." Su Mingming turned his head to look at the group of children who seemed to have done something wrong, and suddenly said to Xiaohua: "Since you are their eldest brother, you should speak for everyone." Xiaohua thought for a while, raised his head, and then said with an expression as if he was going to take it easy: "He hasn't come back since he left yesterday." "Where is he?" "He He……" "Did he go to 'Monkey Park'?" Xiaohua nodded. Su Mingming's face also changed: "Didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to go to the 'Monkey Park'?" "Since you left, we have never been near the 'Monkey Garden'." Xiaohua said: "Who knows that there was a sudden sound of monkeys screaming in the 'Monkey Garden' last night, and then... Then Yucheng said that he would Go see." Su Mingming's face became ugly again, and this time he had the same fear as these children. Seeing that the atmosphere was so dignified, Ye Kai pretended to be relaxed and said, "Since we know that he has gone to the 'Monkey Park', things will be much easier to handle." He said: "If you go to the 'Monkey Park' to find it, you will know." "I can't find it." Xiaohua shook his head. "Why can't I find it?" Su Mingming answered the question: "This has happened several times, but it has never been found." "How many times has it happened?" Ye Kai said, "Have children disappeared in the 'Monkey Garden' before?" Su Mingming nodded. "So have you gone in and looked for it?" "Yes." Su Mingming said: "One time I even took the police with me, but the result was the same, not even a single hair was found." "Could it be somewhere else?" "No." Su Mingming said, "Everyone who goes near the 'Monkey Park' disappears inexplicably." "Your Excellency too?" Su Mingming nodded. A very old man and a little girl live in a garden with hundreds of monkeys of all kinds, a very strange little old couple, which is already very mysterious. But what attracted Ye Kai the most was that there was a monkey with a human head and a monkey body that could talk in the "Monkey Garden". It seems that this "monkey garden" is not only full of mysteries, but may also hide unknown secrets. ——If there is a secret, what kind of secret is it?This is what Ye Kai wants to know the most. The more mysterious and weirder things are exposed, of course it will be difficult, and sometimes it may be accompanied by life, but the excitement in the process and the sense of accomplishment after success are the most attractive. Especially for Ye Kai. He is a person who likes to stimulate and meddle in his own life, so he always has the most troubles. Fortunately, he is not afraid of trouble. —The meddling people are usually the ones who don't bother. Everyone has a home, whether it is a "good" home or a "bad" home; whether it is a "poor" home or a "rich" home; is home. A kennel is also a home. Home is warm. Home is the best place for you to escape from reality, and it is also the best place for you to cry when you are wronged outside. Home is also a place where you can do anything at any time. For example, there are certain places on the human body that itch at any time, but you cannot scratch anytime and anywhere. You don't have these scruples at home. ——except when there are elders or outsiders around. Everyone has a family, so of course Su Mingming also has a family. It's just that Ye Kai never dreamed that her home would look like this. Su Mingming's home is located at the foot of the mountain outside Lhasa, covering a large area, with more than a dozen rooms alone. Although her home is big, it is not magnificent, nor is it broken tiles and walls. The four walls of each room in her house are constructed of different materials. Some are made of planks, some are made of mud paste, some are made of bricks, some are made of thatch, some are made of rocks, some are made of iron sheets, some are made of rattan, and some are made of bamboo... . What's even more amazing is that there is a room inside that uses a row of small trees as walls, and this room is where Xiaohua lives. When Ye Kai came here and saw these "assortment of beautiful things in eyes" homes, he couldn't help being dumbfounded. "How is it?" Xiao Hua said proudly at the side, "Is our family not bad?" "Not bad." Ye Kai smiled wryly: "It's even better than the palace, better than heaven." He smiled and said: "Compared with your family, those noble mansions are like a doghouse." Ye Kai lay down on a "bed" made of cardboard and thatch inside: "There is no other home in the world that is better than this one. This home is absolutely perfect." 5. "They are a group of unwanted children. If I don't take them in, they will be on the streets, and some may die of illness and starvation." "These are the unavoidable sorrows of being an orphan, but some will learn to be bad, do bad things since childhood, and become pests of society when they grow up. This is a serious problem, so I gathered them together and taught The principles by which they conduct themselves.” "Even if they will not be useful people in the future, at least they will not be harmful to society." These words were told by Su Mingming when he brought Ye Kai to this house. Of course, she also said that she and her sister were also orphans. ——Because she is also an orphan, so she understands the sorrow of orphans, so she takes care of orphans like this. Looking at their group of children, and seeing their home, Ye Kai felt a little touched in his heart. A prodigal son feeling like the sorrow of an orphan. ——In some respects, the prodigal son and the orphan are not very similar. They are all fallen leaves in the wind and duckweed in the water, neither where they come from nor where they go?They are just passers-by in life. It is a passer-by, not a returnee. Returning to others is like an arrow, passing by is floating. The sound of hoofbeats. It was a beautiful mistake. I am not a returnee, but a passer-by. A lonely young woman sits alone on a wind chime, waiting for the return of the person she misses, how desolate and lonely she feels. In this case, every sound will bring her endless fantasies and hopes, making her feel that she has returned to others, her longing is over, and her loneliness is far away. When her hopes and illusions are shattered, although she will feel sad and painful, that short hope is still beautiful after all. ——That's why the poet said: "It's a beautiful mistake." If you wait until there is no hope, that is the real sorrow. ——In some respects, the young woman leaning on the window looking forward to her return is also very similar to the wandering prodigal son. The sun is gone, the night is coming. She sat quietly under the eaves, quietly watching the rosy clouds remaining in the sky in the distance and the wind chimes under the eaves. Ye Kai was looking at her. After visiting the children's home, Ye Kai felt that although there were many unsatisfactory things in life, there were still cuteness and beauty in it, so he acted boldly and invited these children to have a big meal. As soon as they heard what Ye Kai said, the children immediately shouted to "Wind Chime". So Ye Kai went to "Wind Bell", and saw the young woman sitting alone under the eaves. "Fengling" is a small restaurant, also outside the city, not far from the children's home. "Fengling" is a very strange shop. From the boss, down to the clerk and the chef, it is all done by one person, that is, the young woman sitting alone under the eaves. Guests who come to "Fengling" know that if they want to eat here, everything has to be "automatic". Walk into the "Wind Chime" by yourself, pick up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, take the bowl to add rice, put your buttocks on the chair, pick up the chopsticks and eat by yourself. After eating, take the bowls and plates to the designated place and put them away. Put the meal money into a bucket, and then walk out by yourself. Coming to "Fengling" to eat is completely "self-service", so people here call "Fengling" a "self-service restaurant". But stir-frying is not "self-service". Early in the morning, the young woman will wash and cut the vegetables, light the fire, and fry the vegetables. The fried food will be cold in the afternoon, and the food will not taste good when it is cold, especially in this border area, if it is not hot food, who can eat it?Of course our beautiful young woman knew this. So she put three tables together on the left side of the dining hall, and put six charcoal stoves on them. On the charcoal stoves were pots with water in the pots and iron plates on the pots. The fried vegetables are placed on the iron plate. The charcoal is burning in the stove, and the fire is cooking the pot. When the water in the pot is hot, it will emit steam. The steam steams on the iron plate, and the dishes will remain hot, so no matter what time you come, you will always have hot meals. Such a strange place, such a strange young woman, such a strange way of eating, Ye Kai found it very interesting.
