Chapter 133 Extra Story 4. Chen Mao and Zhou Zhou
four,
This sleep was long, without a single dream, Chen Mao heard the clear and crisp wind chimes in his trance, and the sound entered his ears.
When I opened my eyes, it was a strange room.
Strange bedding, strange furnishings, strange roof.
Chen Mao opened his mouth, only to realize that he couldn't speak, there seemed to be a knife in his throat, and there seemed to be a ball of fire, and the pain was severe.
"you're awake……"
Chen Mao looked at the national teacher who was approaching step by step, but couldn't react.
The national teacher handed Chen Mao a cup of warm water, and helped him close the quilt, "You fell into the water, I happened to be nearby, this is Qingxin Pavilion."
After explaining clearly in a few words, Chen Mao nodded to show that he understood.
There seemed to be something else added to that glass of water, it was very sweet and had a floral fragrance, Chen Mao licked his lips, wanting to drink another glass.
The national teacher seemed to understand, with a slight smile in his eyes, he took the cup from Chen Mao's hand, and poured him another glass of water.
"You have caught a cold, and your throat is choked with water. You probably won't be able to speak for a few days. You can rest here with me."
Here you are?
Chen Mao was surprised and puzzled.And what about Mr. Kang?Why haven't you been seen.
The national teacher seemed to be able to read Chen Mao's heart, and he said, "Eunuch Kang has gone to get something. Your body is still very weak, so stay here for now."
Chen Mao didn't object, drank the water, and fell asleep again in a daze.
When I woke up again, it was already night.
This room seemed to be on the second floor of the attic. Chen Mao saw a white figure outside the half-closed door.
The wind rolled up the corners of his clothes, flying and fluttering.
Seemingly sensing something, the national teacher turned his head.
Still that exaggerated mask.
Chen Mao was a little disappointed, he had already seen his face when he was in the water, why did he still wear a mask?
"woke up?"
"Hmm." Chen Mao could make a hoarse voice.
He lifted the quilt, got out of bed barefoot, and walked towards the national teacher.
Although covered by the mask, Chen Mao could imagine him frowning, because the national teacher walked towards him quickly, with a reproachful tone: "It's cold on the ground..."
"Um……"
Obediently being pushed back on the bed, Chen Mao looked at the national teacher and reached out to grab his mask.
The national teacher did not hide.
Then the mask was taken off, revealing a handsome and handsome face.
"Zhou Zhou." The national teacher said.
He smiled, his eyebrows widened, and he was full of elegance. "my name."
That familiar feeling rushed into Chen Mao's heart again, as if he had known Zhou Zhou for a long time, and was very familiar with this person.
"I have...have you seen you?"
"In my previous life." Zhou Zhou said.
[-]. "At first, I thought he was a liar..." Chen Mao said with a smile, but he had no intention of continuing to recall, and waved his hand, "Go and rest, don't miss the morning."
Chen Mao has a good memory, but he doesn't like recalling, because in many cases, recalling makes people feel emotional and sentimental, and he doesn't like such emotions.But once you start remembering, it's like being submerged in the monstrous sea water, stuck in it and unable to extricate yourself.
Chen Du retreated, and Eunuch Kang stood beside Chen Mao silently.
Chen Mao glanced at him suddenly and said, "You have gray hair too."
Eunuch Kang's eyes were sour, and he almost shed tears.
"Your Majesty, Master Guoshi will definitely wake up, please don't..."
Chen Mao waved his hand to stop him: "I know..."
He just suddenly felt that time flies so fast, in a flash, it is five years.
How many five years can there be in life?
[-]. "In the previous life?" Chen Mao was speechless. This national teacher is indeed a liar talking nonsense.
"You don't believe me?" Seeing Chen Mao struggling to sit up, Zhou Zhou helped him put a cushion behind him: "It's okay, this life is still very long."
In seven or five years, without Zhou Zhou, he would not have come to where he is today, but the person who once promised him for a lifetime closed his eyes, as if he would never wake up again.
Chen Mao lay down next to Zhou Zhou in his clothes, and held Zhou Zhou's hand in the dark.
"fraud……"
[-]. Emperor Xuande's abdication naturally caused an uproar, but due to physical reasons, the voice of opposition gradually became weaker.
At a critical moment when Da Chen was besieged on all sides, Emperor Xuande made an agreement with the ministers to give way to King Ning until the battle in the north stabilized.
"Brother Huang, have you really thought about it?"
King Ning was the most hesitant person.
"En." Chen Mao nodded, "When Zhou Zhou wakes up, I will take him out of the palace. Chen Ke keeps saying that it is very happy outside, and I also want to have a good time."
Can Zhou Zhou really wake up?When the words came to his lips, Chen Du changed his words: "Why do you need to move out of the palace?"
Chen Mao smiled and did not speak.
Chen Du found that Chen Mao laughed a lot recently, but he didn't laugh in his heart.
Eunuch Kang did not know how many times he wiped his tears behind his back, his eyesight was a little weak, and he couldn't see things clearly.
Since ancient times, change has made people grow old.And this palace is changing all the time.
[-]. "Little boy?"
After reviewing the papers for a day, Chen Mao stepped into the dormitory just because he was tired, and saw the little boy standing in front of Zhou Zhou's bed.
Chen Mao glanced at the clock leak. At this time in the past, the boy had already been taken to the side hall by Eunuch Kang to rest.
Hearing Chen Mao's voice, Xiaotong turned around, blinked his eyes, and said, "Tonight is a full moon."
The window was opened, the wind blew in, the room was cold, Chen Mao frowned, and suddenly found that there was no one in the palace.
Chen Mao suppressed the weirdness in his heart, walked to the window, and wanted to close the window, but was stopped by the boy.
"Tonight is a full moon." The boy repeated.
Chen Mao raised his head and looked into the sky. Sure enough, a huge full moon was hanging in the sky, bright and round.
Chen Mao turned his head silently, the boy was blind, how could he see the moon tonight?
"A long time ago, the Zhou family obtained a heavenly stone, which was so huge that ordinary people could not move it, but this stone came from the sky, so the Zhou family regarded it as a "gift from God". "
The little boy took out an item, and Chen Mao looked at it intently. It was the piece of Tianji Stone that Zhou Zhou had given him.
"The ancestors of the Zhou family once carved two fish on the stone, and the fish came alive. Since then, the Zhou family has possessed mysterious powers." The boy's voice was very cold. He "looked" at the stone in his hand, and his tone was unhurried , "The person who carved the two fish also carved us—me and..."
The stone emitted a dazzling white light in the child's hand, and suddenly a strong wind blew up in the bedroom, sweeping away the end of the child's words.
Chen Mao raised his arm to block the strong light. He couldn't hear what the little boy said, so he had to walk forward.
The wind subsided slowly, and Chen Mao felt someone holding his hand, which was as cold as jade—it was the hand of a child.
The light from the stone was very dazzling, and Chen Mao felt that the ground seemed to be shaking, but Xiaotong pulled him forward steadily.
"Maomao..."
The boy suddenly called him.The voice is soft, a little milky, not as cold as before, like a spoiled child.
This was the first time Xiaotong called Chen Mao like this.
"Huh?" Chen Mao closed his eyes, and the strong light pierced his eyes. He was pulled forward by the little boy, and seemed to be in front of Zhou Zhou's bed, and his knees touched the edge of the bed.
"The Tianji Stone has gone through nearly a thousand years, and it has already reached its limit. Since a long time ago, the Tianji Stone will fall into pieces, and then there will be cracks until it is completely broken. The master of the country forcibly established his connection with the Tianji Stone , lost the consciousness, and was trapped by the Tianji Stone."
"But today, it's a full moon."
The little boy said: "During the full moon, the power of the Tianji Stone will be several times stronger than before, and it will also be more sensitive."
Chen Mao felt a pain in his hand, and blood flowed out.
"The Tianji Stone uses blood as a medium..." The little boy tugged on Chen Mao's robe: "Now, you have to go to the stone, find Master Guoshi, and just bring him out."
"What about you?" Chen Mao felt his body getting lighter, as if he was floating in the air.
"I won't go." The boy's voice was still cheerful, but Chen Mao could faintly hear a few sobs.
"Go ahead and bring him back."
[-]. Chen Mao felt that he could step on the ground, so he slowly opened his eyes, surrounded by white fog.
There is no front, no back.
Chen Mao thought for a while and walked forward casually.
After walking for a while, he heard two people talking.
He distinguished carefully and couldn't help frowning. He was very familiar with these two voices, one was Zhou Zhou's and the other was his own.
Chen Mao ran towards the source of the sound, ran and broke into a mass of silk wrapped in fog.
There are thin threads everywhere, stretched straight one by one.
The top of the head and the bottom of the feet are all glowing threads, wrapped into a huge ball of thread.
Zhou Zhou was standing on the side of the ball, looking up at something.
"Zhou Zhou?"
Zhou Zhou turned his head, very surprised: "Why are you here?"
"Little boy, let me take you back."
"Ah." Zhou Zhou smiled, showing a clear expression, he walked up to Chen Mao, touched Chen Mao's face, very distressed: "Why have you lost so much weight?"
Chen Mao looked behind Zhou Zhou, "What were you looking at just now? I seem to have heard our voices."
"There are all phenomena in the Tianji Stone, and every thread here is a possibility."
"Maybe?" Chen Mao was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Zhou Zhou habitually raised his hand to smooth Chen Mao's frown: "There is a past and a future here."
"Are you looking at our future?" Chen Mao was stunned.
Zhou Zhou shook his head: "No, I can't see the future."
"What do you mean?" Chen Mao grabbed Zhou Zhou's hand: "What do you mean by "can't see the future"? "
"Don't be nervous." Zhou Zhou chuckled twice: "The Tianji Stone can no longer see the future."
"Then what you just watched is..."
"Our previous life."
Chen Mao's eyes widened. Are they really destined for more than one lifetime?But then Chen Mao frowned again, Zhou Zhou would like him because of something in his previous life?
"Don't think about it." Zhou Zhou can always read Chen Mao's thoughts from Chen Mao's eyes, "You are you."
Chen Mao was still struggling, and couldn't help but look behind Zhou Zhou, but he could only see a faint line in the white mist.
"Forget it, let's go." Chen Mao said, took Zhou Zhou's hand, and walked back along the way.
It wasn't until the figures of the two disappeared that all the clouds and mist gradually dissipated, and the light on the silk thread dimmed.Then, a gust of wind came from nowhere, and the thread was blown apart, broken, and shattered.
Empty, nothing left.
The secrets of heaven are endless, but everything should start from the beginning and end at the end, from life to death, to life to death, and back and forth—this is the universe.
The door of Tianqi Building was opened by the wind, and the moonlight entered the building, illuminating the empty ground. There was nothing in the building. The original stone turned into ashes on the ground, and it was blown away by the wind.
