The starry sky is not in the sky, but under the ground. It is beautiful because it has a brilliance that is brighter than the starlight. But in Yingning's eyes, these circles of light floating in the ground are the full affection of his father, his mother, and his
Ying Ning's heart felt like it had been rubbed a thousand times. Even if it didn't hurt, it was still sore...
Qu Yan wiped away the tears on his face and stretched out his hand to Yingning: "Let's go, I'll take you there."
With tears in her eyes, Ying Ning seemed to see her unknown father. She smiled and stretched out her hand, carefully stepped on the rope ladder, and headed towards the beautiful "starry sky" under the leadership of Qu Yan!
Finally, the rope ladder came to an end, but the starry sky was still underfoot and could not be touched. As he got closer, Yingning discovered that these stars could move. They were playfully running and chasing each other in the deep underground space.
, the halo on them is actually soft
It was elegant, but even more dazzling against the backdrop of the dark night. Being so close and seeing the beautiful scenery that her father had seen before, Ying Ning sobbed again. The softest place in Qu Yan's heart was touched by this girl, and he hugged her gently.
Zhu Yingning: "It's so beautiful, isn't it?"
"My father said that he would take my mother and me to see the most beautiful underground starry sky. I finally saw it. It's really beautiful." Yingning thought of her mother who was still in the cage on the cold wall. Sadness and happiness came to her heart at the same time: "My mother
If she could see it, how happy she would be. This is the most beautiful gift her father left for her, the most unique one..."
Qu Yan's heart moved, he took out his mobile phone and took a photo of the beautiful scenery below: "This way your mother can definitely see it."
"These stars seem to be alive." Yingning said, "Brother Yan, look, they have tentacles."
"It's not fireflies." Qu Yan said with certainty: "If your father has seen them before, they have a long lifespan. It's strange why your father came back here."
Yingning's eyes were still drawn by the stars, but Qu Yan looked around. The cloth strips hanging on the stone wall attracted his attention. He walked over and took a closer look. Although the color had faded, he could still recognize it.
Colorful prayer flags.
Colorful refers to the five colors of blue, white, red, green and yellow. The blue flag is the symbol of the sky, the white flag is the symbol of the white clouds, the red flag is the symbol of the flame, the green flag is the symbol of the green water, and the yellow flag is the symbol of the land. In this way
First, it also fixed the order of the prayer flags from top to bottom. Just like the law of nature that the blue sky is at the top and the loess at the bottom has remained unchanged through the ages, the order of the various prayer flags cannot be changed.
They are called prayer flags because these flags have Buddhist scriptures printed on them. When the prayer flags dance in the wind, they are chanting sutras once, constantly conveying people's wishes to God and praying for God's blessing. In this way,
Prayer flags have become a link between God and people.
The source of these prayer flags is most likely the two Bon believers. Qu Yan was about to walk away when a gust of wind blew from nowhere and blew up the colorful prayer flags, revealing the box under the prayer flags. Qu Yan smiled slightly.
Suddenly, the wind came unexpectedly, and the feeling of fate became stronger. Qu Yan picked up the box and saw the word "fire" engraved on the surface. Qu Yan was overjoyed: "Ying Ning, look at this quickly!"
The word "fire" on the box made Yingning's heart skip a beat. She stretched out her hands, which were already trembling slightly. Finally, she put her hands on her chest dejectedly: "Brother Yan, you should help me open it."
Bar."
Ying Ning even lowered her head. She was afraid that all her hope would disappear in an instant. Qu Yan sighed and opened the box resolutely. When he saw the white silk filled with words inside, Qu Yan laughed out loud: "Silly girl,
Look, this is a letter written by your father Huo Xunsi, and it is written to you and your mother."
At that time, she was not yet born. Ying Ning could not cry this time. There was a smile on her lips. How much her father was looking forward to her birth. This was a letter written to her beloved wife and to her future.
The child's letter: When Huo Xunsi saw the rare beauty in the world, he could only think of the two people he loved most - his wife and child.
Huo Xunsi has good handwriting and the words in the letter are sincere. If translated into the current text, the meaning is roughly as follows: "Xue Xiang, Xiaobao..."
Xiaobao, my father definitely didn’t know whether the baby in my mother’s belly was a boy or a girl, so he chose the unisex name Xiaobao. Yingning smiled with tears in her eyes: “It turns out he planned to call me Xiaobao.”
"You must have never imagined that I am now on an extremely rare beautiful place. I can see the stars all over the sky when I lower my head. At this moment, my greatest hope is to be with you and enjoy this rare underground starry sky together. I am writing now
I am writing this letter, hoping that one day, our family of three can come back together and take out this letter together. Xue Xiang, there is a saying since ancient times, the country and the country
No one knows which beauty is more important, but in my heart, I already have a clear answer. Staying by your side and your child is the best destination for me. I already have an idea in my heart, and I will end it as soon as possible.
All this absurdity allows everyone to live a relaxed and comfortable life, Xue Xiang, when we return here, it will definitely be a day when we can live a relaxed and comfortable life."
There was a snow-white fox embroidered on the white silk, and next to it was his father's signature - Huo Xunsi.
Ying Ning's heart was filled with various emotions. Not only had her father made a choice, but he had also thought about the way back. If someone hadn't secretly plotted against him, perhaps there wouldn't be all the things happening now. The family of three was enjoying themselves happily.
The more Yingning thought about it, the sadder she became. She carefully put away the white silk with her father's last words written on it. She was suddenly shocked and immediately wiped away her tears: "But, how did father come in?"
This question stunned Qu Yan, but he immediately thought: "Yan Gaozhen gave the blood tassel stone to his two sons. Maybe your father knows where the other blood tassel stone is."
This answer seemed reliable, but Yingning felt that it was not that simple. She pointed at the rock wall: "Brother Yan, this is Sanskrit, right? Also, the shape is a bit weird, does it look like two standing people?"
?”
On the wall opposite the colorful prayer flags, there were indeed two humanoid shapes. There were also some rusty iron chains hanging on the wall. The chains were quite heavy. As he got closer, Qu Yan found that they were not carved marks.
There was also a faint smell. He moved his nose closer and said, "It smells like corpse liquid."
"Could it be the two Bon believers?" Yingning said: "Looking at the same height, they happen to be two people. Brother Yan, look, there are two gourd marks on the wall. Oh my God, could they have passed through it?
Were the neck bones of the two people finally imprinted on the wall?"
"No, just the opposite. I remember when Liu Shangsheng inspected the corpse, the gourd mark was on the back of the neck. If the bodies of these two people were close to the wall, then the gourd came out of the wall and hit them.
On the back of the neck bone, this may also be the cause of their death."
Qu Yan measured the distance between the two gourd marks with his hand: "The bodies of the two should be close to each other, facing outward. If the mechanism comes out and hits their right neck bones, then the two of them may die here."
The sex is very high. If so, why would their bodies appear in the desert?"
Ying Ning's hand touched the wall, and she didn't know where it touched. There were two "swish" sounds, and two strong winds hit Ying Ning in front of her. She was so scared that she quickly stepped back. Two sharp blades came out from the stone wall.
Jean Yingning inhaled repeatedly: "What a strong force!"
Seeing that their front ends were in the shape of a gourd, Qu Yan said: "No wonder they can hit the bones directly and kill people. This force can break the heart."
"Brother Yan, look again, the chain is broken in the middle." Yingning was very excited: "Does this mean that these two people have broken the chain and tried to leave here? So, they really have
Only after they leave here will they appear in the desert."
Qu Yan was full of praise for Ying Ning: "You are right. I think they must not have had blood tassels in their hands at that time. They were taken away by the Yuezhi King. Therefore, they did not return along the original route. They would come from
Where to leave..."
Qu Yan's gaze fell on the starry sky at his feet. There was no way out, so...
"Yingning, do you dare to jump down with me?" Qu Yan asked: "I have a feeling that the two Bon believers left here, Yingning?"
Yingning smiled slightly and nodded with a smile: "Is there anything you don't dare to do?"
Qu Yan held Ying Ning's hand. If he could, he would hold this hand for the rest of his life and never let go. Qu Yan counted down to three, two, and one. As soon as the last sound of "one" fell, the two of them joined hands and jumped.
Jump towards the starry sky, swoop down like this, reach the starry sky at your fingertips, fall down, or
It may be death, but Qu Yan and Ying Ning have the same idea in their hearts. If dying together can be regarded as a contribution and reward to each other, then... willingly, Ying Ning knows that he cannot repay Qu Yan with his love.
If such an action can make him feel at ease, it will be worth it!
The bodies of the two fell downwards. This move was actually very risky, but Yingning was fully prepared. At the moment when she was about to land, her body turned half a circle in the air, and while falling lightly,
She stretched out her hand to support Qu Yan. Her ability shocked Qu Yan: "How did you do it?"
"You have forgotten that I have the blood of the fairy fox." Yingning blinked and looked up: "Brother Yan, look, those luminous bugs only stay in the middle section and cannot go up.
Won’t come down.”
They only move within the designated range and will not cross the boundary at all. Qu Yan's attention was on his feet: "Ying Ning, there are blood stains on the ground."
To be precise, it is the word "blood". Rows of Sanskrit characters are displayed on the ground. The word "blood" is very thick at first, and then gradually fades. The original bright red color turns to black due to the precipitation of time. Qu Yan took out his mobile phone to take a picture.
At the same time, he quickly converted it into Chinese characters in his mind, and the facts slowly emerged between the lines. Qu Yan's expression changed from shock to sigh, and finally calmed down.
"Brother Yan, what does it say?" Ying Ning didn't understand Sanskrit, and her curious cat's paws scratched her heart for a long time.
