Chapter 79
Happy times always pass quickly. In a blink of an eye, it is the last day for Ji Ran and the others to stay in City A. They will leave tomorrow, leaving the city where they left so many laughter and laughter. Although there are many regrets, but It's all about returning to everyday life.
Early in the morning, Ji Ran took out the ancient clothes that she had bought in the pedestrian street. She and Su Mei have been troublesome for the past few days, and have not worn them since that night, but on this last day, Ji Ran put the They took them out and put them on the bed quietly. Su Mei was still washing in the bathroom at this time, and Ji Ran had already put on her clothes first.
Su Mei came out of the bathroom and saw Ji Ran in a azure blue shirt at a glance, she couldn't help laughing: "Why are you wearing it?"
Ji Ran picked up the red shirt on the bed, walked in front of Su Mei, and said coquettishly, "Su Su, we're going back tomorrow, so you can wear it with me again."
She didn't mean to refuse, not to mention Ji Ran was coquettish to herself, Su Mei smiled dotingly at Ji Ran, and replied softly, "Okay."
After packing up, the two left the hotel. Ji Ran brought Su Mei to a large theme park with ghosts and goblins as its essence, called Wangchuan. In this paradise, all the staff are dressed as ghosts and spirits, and each one is vivid. It is one of the must-see places for foreign tourists, and it is also an entertainment place for locals to spend their holidays.
The gate of the paradise is a black lacquered wooden gate, about two meters high, covered with black rubble, like waves on the sea, one after another, it is really beautiful. Below the door are two large black pillars that are thick for two people, and lifelike dragons are carved on the left and right sides. They are inserted straight into the ground, and they are very powerful. The door plaque is made of high-quality red sandalwood, and the two characters of Wangchuan are hollowed out with gold threads, which attracts people's attention at first glance.
At the entrance, stood a woman wearing a bat-shaped black hairpin and wearing a black suit. In front of her was a huge tile-colored ceramic pot. She held a bamboo pole in her hand. Above the bamboo pole was a solitary skull. She worked hard. She stirred the bamboo pole in the pot. Whenever someone wanted to enter the garden, she would scoop the soup from the pot into a bowl and hand it to them, as if saying something.
"Susu, look, that person seems to be Granny Meng, but she's not an old woman." Ji Ran and Su Mei finished checking the tickets and followed the crowd to the entrance.
Su Mei smiled and tapped Ji Ran's forehead: "Who ruled that Granny Meng would be an old woman, isn't she a pretty sister?"
"Hmph, you don't look at it too much if it looks good." Ji Ran said softly.
"Okay, don't look."
The two of them were already lined up between talking and laughing, and Po Meng, who was standing at the door, handed them a bowl of soup as usual, and said in her mouth: "After drinking Po Meng's soup, forget about the world, let him enjoy the joys and sorrows, and just ask for peace of mind. ."
Ji Ran looked down at the bowl of soup, it was dark green, and it was a little hard to swallow, but everyone who entered the park had to drink it, so she drank it with a frown, unexpectedly after the entrance. But it is so sweet that it makes you want to try the second bowl.
After returning the bowl, the two entered the park smoothly.
The whole garden is mainly divided into four parts: one is the Fairy Garden, which is actually a children's playground. There are various things for children to play in it, and it is the favorite place for parents to take their children; the other is Yulin Xianyuan, which is a large-scale performance stage. , there will be various stage plays and musicals, both adults and children love; one is exquisite delicacies, that is, a food street, suitable for people who are tired of walking in the garden to rest; the last one is the realm of reincarnation, it is a It's a big tavern. The door is dark green frosted glass, and you can't see what's inside from the outside. The big word "Eighteen Bans" is written on the door. People with children will miss it.
However, in addition to these, the park also has many trails leading to secluded and secluded paths, and the layouts are also unique, which is very suitable for people to explore.
Ji Ran looked at the time. It was 20 minutes before ten o'clock. At ten o'clock, there was a stage play "Monkey King Havoc in the Underworld."
Without hesitation, Ji Ran took Su Mei and walked quickly towards Yulin Xianyuan.
Fortunately, they came early. Although they didn't occupy the first row, they were in the very front of the middle.
"It is said that the special effects of this stage play are very good, and the actors are also very good." Ji Ran whispered in Su Mei's ear as soon as it was done in the seat.
"Yeah, but you don't allow spoilers, I want to see it myself." Su Mei gave Ji Ran a vigilant look and warned.
Ji Ran pouted and hummed, "It's the first time I've come to see it. Where can I give you a spoiler?"
"Didn't you do a strategy?" Su Mei squinted at Ji Ran.
"Stupid, I'm just watching what shows you recommend, so I won't watch the content of the show." Ji Ran retorted.
At this moment, a shout came: "Peanuts, melon seeds, popcorn, Coke, Sprite, oranges, buy more and eat more, it's not a loss to invest in shares."
Ji Ran looked in the direction of the shouting, and saw a tall, thin man with long silver hair, two long ears in a bun, and a pink dress that stood on the back. Nine big tails. The man tried his best to get out of the graceful posture, but there were too many things hanging in front of him, and he really didn't have the strength to walk out of the flamboyant pace.
Ji Ran laughed and whispered to Su Mei, "Look at Susu, male fox spirits are popular now, but he doesn't have any coquettish charm, he's far worse than you."
"Oh, is that right?" Su Mei sneered at Ji Ran, quietly touched Ji Ran's waist, pinched the thin waist and gave her a 180-degree turn, "Who are you calling a vixen? Woolen cloth?"
"Hey." Ji Ran sucked in a breath of cold air, and hurriedly reached out to grab Su Mei's hand, begging for mercy, "I made a mistake, I made a mistake, and I will never dare again."
"Hmph." Su Mei snorted softly and let go of her hand, which was considered to have let go of Ji Ran.
Time passed quietly in the laughter of the two, and in a blink of an eye, there were already many people sitting around, and mist filled the stage amid the clamor, and an earth-shattering drink sounded, and the stage play officially began.
At the very beginning, the monkeys waved the golden hoop stick in the underworld to make a riot. The realistic special effects made the golden hoop stick freely and swept away the little ghosts in the dazzling eyes. saw that the group of little ghosts were beaten by the monkeys directly. Overturned several times in the air, some were directly pushed out of the stage by a stick and landed on the steps of the auditorium, and some were stubbornly resisting the dizziness and vomit that were thrown from the golden hoop. The scene is really wonderful.
"Well, as soon as this monkey comes up, he will make a big fuss in the underworld. What do you think will happen after this?" Ji Ran whispered in Su Mei's ear.
Su Mei was watching with gusto, she heard the words and tapped Ji Ran's forehead, lowered her voice and said, "Watch the drama well."
"Okay." Ji Ran touched his knocked forehead, and his eyes returned to the stage play.
I saw that the monkey was content to get the book of life and death, and with a wave of the pen, he ticked off all the names of himself and his subordinates, and since then he has become an immortal existence.
At this point, the audience thought that it would be like in Journey to the West, Heavenly Court was going to send someone down to take the monkey, but who knows, Heavenly Court is only helping the underworld to supervise the life-and-death struggle more closely, but it did not take any action against Sun Monkey. action.
The white air rose on the stage, and there was the sound of water flowing in the rumbling sound. I saw that the white fog dissipated, and the scene on the stage was completely changed. On a rockery with a waterfall hanging, many monkeys jumped up and down there. Our mountain king, Sun Wukong.
Now that we have immortality, our monkeys can't be idle any longer, and they are challenging the limits of life one by one.
It was fine at first, they just jumped from one treetop to another to see how far they could jump, but after a monkey fell from a tree and was seriously injured, because of immortality, Sun Wukong used some magic After it became alive again, they became lawless one by one, and they were no longer afraid of lions and tigers, and soon they dominated the whole forest, completely turning into a world ruled by monkeys.
"Haha, this tiger is so pitiful, it even wanted to find fruit for the monkeys to eat." Ji Ran looked at the submissive tiger on the stage and couldn't help laughing.
"Oh, it's true that there are tigers in the mountains, and monkeys have to be called kings." Su Mei also couldn't help but laugh.
Watching the monkeys on the stage make a fortune and make heaven and earth, the usually mighty and ferocious beasts bowed their heads and looked small, and the audience also laughed out loud.
This is the happiest time in the monkeys' life. Later, the lights flickered, the curtain changed several times between the sun and the sunset, spring flowers and summer rain, autumn leaves and winter snow, many years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Although Sun Wukong and his subordinates are immortal, their descendants are old and dying, and finally a monkey can't hold it anymore, and they are full of nostalgia for the world in their dying breaths. Sun Wukong couldn't stand it any longer, and decided to make a riot in the underworld again, but this time he failed to follow his wish. With the help of the Tathagata, it hid back to Huaguo Mountain, and the monkey had long since returned before he came back. is dead.
This time, Heavenly Court still did not come to arrest Sun Wukong, and still ignored the monkeys who were removed from the book of life and death. And with the death of their descendants, those monkeys who gained immortality lost their former happiness. They watched their close descendants die in front of their eyes one by one, but there was nothing they could do. The feeling of powerlessness was about to torture them crazy. , and what is even more terrifying is that they will live forever under this powerless torture, immortal and immortal, watching the most important people go away from them, but they can't keep anything.
The monkeys who once fervently supported Sun Wukong now look at him with hatred and ask him why he tortured them so much.
Sun Wukong was speechless when he was asked. At this time, he understood that the inaction of the heavenly court was the greatest punishment for him.
Sun Wukong returned to the underworld again. This time he did not make trouble. He asked the king of hell how to take back their eternal life. At this time, the Tathagata appeared. He said that as long as Sun Wukong was willing to be crushed under his Wuzhi Mountain for five hundred years, he would let him. It re-writes their names on the book of life and death.
Sun Wukong agreed without hesitation, and got the book of life and death. It stared at it for a few seconds, and then looked up to the sky and howled, and the sound was full of sorrow and remorse. The whistle stopped, and with a swipe of the pen, Shushu wrote their names back into the book of life and death, and then willingly was suppressed by the Tathagata at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain.
At the end of the stage play, in Huaguo Mountain, a group of monkeys cheered the death of a monkey, while at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain on the other side, a monkey lay there quietly, revealing only a sleepy head with its eyes closed.
At the beginning, the audience was full of laughter, but at this time, there were several low-pitched sobbing, and some girls who were out of control were already in the arms of the people around them and burst into tears. have to say that the adaptation of this stage play is quite successful, there are laughs, tears, and people's eternal thinking about life.
When all the actors came to the stage to call the curtain, the audience burst into warm applause, and that wave after wave was everyone's greatest affirmation to them.
"Let's go." At the end of the play, some audience went to take a group photo with the actors, but Ji Ran looked back at Su Mei, showing no interest in the group photo.
"Yeah." Su Mei nodded, got up and walked out with Ji Ran.
"Susu, do you want to gain immortality?" Ji Ran couldn't help asking Su Mei while walking on the road.
"I don't want to." Without any hesitation, Su Mei replied softly.
"why?"
"Because of the passage of time, it is a very beautiful thing in itself." Su Mei looked forward, her eyes light.
"But with eternal life, can't you do more things?" Ji Ran continued to ask.
Su Mei was silent for a moment and looked at Ji Ran: "But of course, the reason why people feel that life is so precious is because it is short, and doing more things in a limited time will make it so meaningful. If life changesFor eternity, then our enthusiasm will die out in eternity sooner or later. Those monkeys havenβt lived long enough, they still know pain, but the end of eternal life should be nothingness.β
Su Mei sighed, "I would rather die if I live without sorrow and joy like that."
Ji Ran stopped, fixed his eyes on Su Mei, and suddenly smiled: "Me too."
