Seeking Longevity by the River of Forgetfulness

It was getting late, Long Bieyi came home from work, walked alone in the dark alley, humming softly.He walked lightly, his long hair swept back and forth around his waist, and the golden headband on his head swayed accordingly, looking very satisfied.

All of a sudden, only hearing the fallen leaves Shusuo, the wind chasing, Long Bieyi couldn't dodge in time, it was a knife on his neck.It was a genuine machete, and it shone coldly under the white moonlight.Long Bieyi suddenly broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and silently said in his heart, "Catastrophes come from flying, disasters happen without reason."

A sinister voice came from behind: "Take out all the money."

Long Bieyi suppressed his guilty conscience, pouted his neck and said, "I only have two copper coins, if you don't mind taking them, you can take them!" As he spoke, he reached into his sleeve, pretended to grope for a while, and suddenly grabbed a handful of salt To the man's eyes.

The robber was blinded by the salt grains, and his hand holding the knife loosened.Long Bieyi ran away, but the man chased him very fast and cornered Long Bieyi in a blink of an eye.

"I'll kill you today!" The masked robber swung the machete in his hand angrily, and the blade shone like a deadly ghost under the moonlight.

Long Bieyi frowned, and said aggrievedly: "Master, I have no father, no mother, no one to rely on, and I never spare my life. Life and death are governed by heaven, and reincarnation is the law of human relations. Hang. I only have one wish, and that is to finish tasting the delicacies of the famous restaurants in the "Food History". "

The robber became more and more confused when he heard it, and stood there thinking for a while, then said: "You mean, I have to let you go now?"

Long Bieyi: "Yes, if you are new here, I can still recommend you the Conscience Inn and Koubei Restaurant in Yuncheng, the ones that don't take kickbacks."

The robber didn't bother to listen to his nonsense, so he groped his chest with his hands, and found out the gold ingot that he was holding over his heart in two or three strokes.

"There are such treasures," the robber sneered, "you would have paid for your life earlier, and you are still talking nonsense to me..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he fell to the ground without saying a word.

Long Bieyi covered her mouth in surprise, seeing a foot wearing a white cloth shoe stepping heavily on the robber's back.Then the man leaned over and picked up the gold ingot, tapped it with his fingertips, pointed to Long Bie Yi, and said, "He owns this."

The voice is cold, like an iceberg pearl, refreshing.

The robber seemed to have been hit hard, lying on the ground unable to move, only groaning in fear.

Long Bieyi took a closer look, and found that the person who acted bravely was actually the distinguished guest who rewarded gold ingots just now, with extraordinary temperament, calm and unhurried, like a magic soldier descending from heaven.He walked up to Long Bieyi calmly, raised his hand to straighten his messy skirt, and then put the gold ingot back into his hand.

Under the hazy moonlight, Long Bieyi's eyes were shining brightly, staring at his savior without blinking, his pupils cut water and his emotions surged.

"May I ask your honorable name?" Long Bieyi summoned up his courage and asked.

The man was silent, and his expression could not be seen clearly under the dim moonlight.

"Under Long Bie Yi. Your Excellency?" Long Bie Yi asked again.

"Jing Zhe."

The name sounded so good, Long Bieyi clasped his fists and said: "Long Bieyi thanked Mr. Jingzhe for this, your great kindness and virtue, I will never forget it!"

"You're welcome, just call me to wake me up." The man looked at Long Bieyi's smiling eyes, his expression normal, "Are you serious about what you just said?"

Long Bieyi blinked, puzzled.

Jing Zhe: "You said that your lifelong wish is to taste all the delicacies in "Delicacy", is that true?"

Long Bieyi nodded: "It's absolutely true." His eyes were sincere.

This statement is true.Long Bieyi has lost his memory, has no relatives, no reason, no home to return to, wandering without fixation, and has a clear mind. He does not agree with the Buddhist saying of "suffering in this life, and cultivating the next life".He believes that if you have wine today and get drunk today, living this life in a chic and unrestrained way is the profound meaning of the cycle of life and death.

Jing Zhe didn't respond, which made Long Bieyi secretly a little flustered, afraid that the other party would despise her for not seeking to make progress and indulge in pleasure.With the prevalence of Buddhism today, it is difficult to avoid the eight sufferings of life. The idea of ​​living to death and ignoring the future seems to be deviant in both emotion and reason.Long Bieyi has an unrestrained temperament, but this time he is particularly concerned about the opinion of Young Master Jingzhe, feeling uneasy.

Unexpectedly, Jing Zhe thought for a moment, and said: "I want to help you realize your wish, and I will take you to taste all the delicacies in "Delicacy". Would you appreciate it?"

-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------

Long Bieyi felt that she must have saved the common people in the world in her previous life.

Otherwise, how could I meet a handsome young man who is unparalleled in the world, and his every gesture is pleasing to the eye.Unexpectedly, this person also favored him very much, gave him a high bounty that others would envy, saved his life, and even fulfilled his wishes.

For a moment, Long Bieyi raised his head and looked at Jingzhe, who was more than three inches taller than him, and asked, "Excuse me, do you... think my storytelling is interesting?"

Jing Zhe raised her eyebrows, and replied: "It can be said that way. Don't worry, I am definitely not a wicked person, I sincerely invite you."

Long Bieyi nodded: "I know, you saved my life and treated me so well, how could you be a villain. Besides, as the saying goes, 'A picture is born from the heart', you are handsome and gentle, you can see it at first glance. A kind-faced person. You have a good eye, and I am very interesting, with a sharp tongue and quick hands and feet, and I will not cause you any trouble along the way!"

Jing Zhe nodded slightly: "You tell me your address, and I will meet you tomorrow."

Long Bieyi happily told him the address, and was about to leave, but Jing Zhe gently pulled her sleeve.

"Wait a minute, the road is too dark." As Jing Zhe said, he moved his fingers with the palm facing up, and unexpectedly summoned a small cluster of shining fireflies, flying around his slender fingers in groups of three or four.With his other hand, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and shook it open, caged the firefly inside, and then neatly tied a knot at the bottom, turning it into a little light bulb that shone with light.

Long Bieyi was stunned at this moment, and let Jing Zhe carefully put the light ball in his hand.

"Take this, be careful on the road, see you tomorrow." Jing Zhe whispered, turned around and left the alley, and disappeared.
