Chapter 2650 Companion (Easter Egg 1)
About that conversation in the bamboo forest on the mountain.
…
…
…
Huo Yuangong carried the wine and went up the mountain alone to visit the grave.
Huo Yuchuan's tomb is behind the Earth Temple, lonely and unusually deserted.
He went up the mountain alone and briefly cleared the weeds growing in front of the tomb.
There was no one on the mountain but him.
He sat in front of the tomb, drank wine, and talked a lot with the lifeless tomb in front of him.
Intermittently, he talked about a lot of things that happened in Kyoto and what happened on the border battlefield.
besides……
He talked about his nominal sister-in-law, the little widow who lived alone here.
Huo Yuangong rarely mentioned a woman like this.
Quietly and calmly, he poured the wine in front of the tomb, with no emotion on his face.
It's like talking about an ordinary stranger.
The tone was so calm that there was no change at all.
Like no feeling.
I have no interest in that pretty and bright little widow.
"They say you have a wife."
"I just saw you, and I feel..."
The wine bottle, which was about to bottom out, was gently placed on the ground. He lowered his eyes and his gaze fell on the fallen leaves on the ground.
The voice paused a little, neither fast nor slow.
"Inappropriate."
"She and you are not suitable."
The bamboo forest was quiet and empty, with only one person deserted.
The wind blew, making the leaves on the bamboo rustle.
The slender bamboo leaves fell lightly in the wind and landed on the ground, emerald green, withered yellow and half green, not touching the ground.
Like the response of the dead in the tomb to him.
Silent response.
I don’t know if I agree or disagree.
The cold-hearted second son of the Huo family raised the wine bottle again and took a sip.
The drink was clear, as cold as his eyes.
With extremely clear sense and calmness, lightness.
"So, what do I do?"
It's like asking the people in the tomb, but also like asking yourself.
No one will answer him except himself.
The question fell lightly and swirled on the fallen leaves with the wind.
For a long, long time, his words also stopped here for a long, long time.
Nothing more was said, and the old memories between the brothers seemed to have stopped here.
There was no further push.
…
…
…
I do not know how long it has been.
The jug was empty, not a drop of wine was left.
The rustling bamboo leaves that fell from the bamboo covered the lonely tomb, and also covered the wine-soaked soil in front of the tomb.
The scorching sun gradually set on the other side of the mountain, slowly, bit by bit, hiding its figure.
The sultry sunshine gradually converges in the bamboo forest.
Until the moment when night fell completely, no one came to the mountain.
Only the birds returning to their nests are chirping, clear and sweet, and they are free and easy in the deep mountains and forests.
When he was about to go down the mountain, Huo Yuangong took the empty wine bottle and left slowly.
I walked a few steps, under the thick dusk.
The moonlight above the bamboo forest was blocked by the clouds, and the light and shadow disappeared.
His figure was also hidden in the darkness, quietly blending into the night.
Before leaving, he stopped and turned slightly sideways, as if staring at the grave left alone.
a long time.
There was no answer to the question, and it seemed that he didn't need any other answer.
When turning to leave.
Suddenly, there was some movement in the silent bamboo forest.
There was a rustling sound, as if something was moving.
Huo Yuangong raised his eyes and looked over.
Then, he looked at a rabbit that came out to look for food at night.
The rabbit's body stiffened.
Huo Yuangong watched quietly, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Like a hunting beast lurking in the dark.
If you don't move, that's it. If you move...
The rabbit that just escaped from Yun Si: "..."
grass!
