(forty-six)
Sunge looked at Li Taibai, who was writing poems on the wall of Liangyuan while he was drunk, and curled up his lips helplessly.
It seems that this time she had to spend a lot of money to buy the wall and save it.
To be honest, having a brother like Li Taibai is really expensive.
But what if we are waiting for the Zong daughter in the plot to come to buy a wall, and the Zong daughter is amazed by Li Bai's talent, has a longing for her, and is temporarily willing to become a female Taoist priest in despair with Li Bai?
The life of a noble daughter from an aristocratic family should not be ruined here.
After bidding farewell to Gao Shi, Du Fu, and Li Bai went to Qizhou on a whim, looking for Gao Tianshi who wanted to perform a Taoist enshrinement ceremony and become a real official Taoist priest.
Sunge indulged Li Taibai as always, knowing that Li Taibai was still a young man at the age of destiny.
She has been with Li Taibai for more than forty years, which has been much longer than she imagined.
Witnessed and experienced Li Taibai's life.
After Sunge's health gradually began to suffer, Li Taibai ended his wandering life and settled in Jinling and Yangzhou.
For them, Jinling and Yangzhou are even more memorable.
Sunge didn't know whether she missed the time when she founded the wine shop and made spices, or whether she missed the song of looking up at the bright moon and looking down at her hometown.
Or that sentence, the moonlight is just right in Yangzhou, and the moon can come slowly.
Decades were so long that she couldn't remember too many things.
After staying in Yangzhou for a long time, Sun Ge and Li Bai officially started their health care life for the elderly.
Li Taibai, the banished immortal, not only washed his hands to make soup, but also learned basic pharmacological knowledge from Xinglin masters and made medicinal diet for Sunge.
No one knew the fear in Li Bai's heart.
In his heart, Ah Yue, who was like a fairy, had always been omnipotent, strong and confident.
If it hadn't been for the sudden collapse of his body due to the cold, Li Bai would have really forgotten his Ah Yue. This Young Master Mingyue was actually a girl.
Ah Yue is his deepest bond in this world. Without Ah Yue, who would he be?
At this moment, Banished Immortal looked like the most ordinary old man.
There are joys and sorrows, worries about birth, old age, sickness and death, and fear of separation.
It was obviously a minor cold, but gradually no cure was available, and famous doctors were helpless.
"Brother, I want to go back to Qinglian."
Sunge, who was leaning on the couch, said sickly.
As Li Mingyue, she was destined to protect only Li Taibai and the people around Li Taibai in this life.
She was powerless to change the fate of the Tang Dynasty.
"Brother, I want to go back to Qinglian. I want to see Daitian Mountain and Daming Temple."
The road to Shu is naturally dangerous. No matter how the outside world changes, the land of Bashu can still maintain basic tranquility.
Li Bai endured the unspeakable astringency in his heart, curled his lips slightly, and pretended to be calm and calm, "Okay, Ah Yue wants to go back, then we will go back."
Before leaving, Li Bai met Wei Wan, who had been pursuing the journey for three thousand miles, and gave him all his poems to compile into a book.
He knew in his heart that his Ah Yue had always hoped that his reputation as a Poet Immortal would shine throughout the Tang Dynasty and spread throughout the ages.
Now, he is about to return to Shu with A Yue, and maybe he will never come out again in this life.
The young man in front of him traveled three thousand miles just to see him, which is enough to prove his trustworthiness.
"I will never let down the entrustment of my seniors." Wei Wan said solemnly.
Li Bai nodded slightly, "From now on, he will become famous all over the world."
His praise was enough to make Wei Wan famous in the literary world.
…
The large cruise ship that Sunge bought back then has been abandoned and dilapidated, and is no longer as gorgeous and luxurious as before.
One by one, they all seem to remind Li Taibai that time flies by and the past is hard to recover.
Li Bai bought a new boat. Although the sparrow was small, it had all the internal organs and was exquisite and compact.
On the way back to Shu, Li Bai transformed into a nagging old man, as if he wanted to tell Sun Ge again about the past years, as if this could save time. He can keep his Ah Yue.
Wanting to go up to the sky and embrace the bright moon, this was Li Taibai's only thought at the moment.
"Brother, let me tell you a secret."
Sunge really didn't want to see Li Taibai, who had always been carefree and elegant, showing such an expression.
In addition to being intolerant, there is also reluctance.
"Brother, I am actually a fairy."
"Fairy descended to earth, so everything goes well for me in this life and everything is successful."
"So, brother, my leaving is never leaving."
She is immortal.
Li Taibai looked at Sunge steadily, and then nodded heavily.
In his heart, Ah Yue has always been a god, the only god he believes in.
Over the past few decades, Ah Yue has been helping him achieve the reputation of being an immortal. Little did he know that there were already gods in this world.
Li Bai tilted his head, tears falling from the corners of his eyes, one drop at a time.
Parting is indeed a sad thing.
But leaving without saying goodbye is even more cruel to the living person.
The boat was still floating on the river, and I saw the moon of Mount Emei again, but it was a pity that the people around me were no longer alive.
In this world, he became truly alone.
Li Bai buried his Ah Yue in Daitian Mountain, while he himself collected his elegance and arrogance, and stayed in Daming Temple like an ordinary teacher.
For a time, there was no trace of the banished immortal in the Tang Dynasty.
When the war broke out, Li Bai found out why his Ayue insisted on returning to Shu before she died.
Natural danger has become a natural barrier at this time.
His Ah Yue really spent her whole life fulfilling and protecting him.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he drank. Without Ah Yue's own brew, all the wine seemed to be tasteless.
He even learned to make wine himself in his old age, hoping to surprise Ah Yue on the anniversary of Ah Yue's death.
It's a pity that he, who has tasted all the fine wines in the world and hopes to stay drunk without waking up, can't achieve even half of Ah Yue's charm.
AD 762, the tenth year after Ah Yue's death.
He never thought that he could actually walk alone in this world for ten years.
After the war subsided, I heard that the young man named Wei Wan changed his name to Wei Hao High School Jinshi and personally compiled the "Li Hanlin Collection".
As soon as the poem came out, his name of banishing the immortals was truly engraved on the monument of history.
What about his Ah Yue?
Why do so few people in this world remember his Ah Yue?
It was obvious that his Ah Yue was the most amazing, talented and beautiful person in the world, someone even he could not match.
Everyone said that Li Taibai came from the prosperous Tang Dynasty, raised his cup, raised his sword, and sang about the world. Whether he was in the court or in the world, he was the most shining pearl.
But he knew that Ah Yue was the one.
Without Ah Yue, his life would have been a rough one.
On the small boat, the gray-haired Li Bai, who was in his twilight years, was holding the most flavorful wine he had brewed in his hand, without even a drop of it, but his cloudy eyes were filled with hot tears.
He raised his head, looked at the moon, and then used his peripheral vision to look at the lonely tomb bamboo tower on the side.
A world without gods is like being in a swamp with poisonous fog.
The banished immortal drowned and died. Scholars speculated that the immortal was drunk and only loved the moon. He could not catch the bright moon in the blue sky, so he fished for the moon in the water.
Only Cen Xun knew that what the banished immortal was looking for was the god in his heart.
The autumn wind is clear, the autumn moon is bright,
The fallen leaves gathered and dispersed, and the jackdaws roosted again.
When will we know each other when we miss each other? It is embarrassing at this time and this night.
------Digression-----
When writing about the First Emperor, the One Emperor Through the Ages, I wanted to reflect the weight of history and the great talent and strategy of the First Emperor.
When writing about Li Bai, I changed my writing method and style, always trying to let everyone participate in the life of the banished immortal.
Not only Sunge is a witness, but everyone is also a witness.
To be honest, I didn't write the story of Li Bai smoothly. I wanted to show Li Bai's life, but it easily became boring.
Many times, I write it down and then delete it.
Initially, I wanted to describe Li Bai's hardships and misery, but as it went on, I couldn't bear it.
I have always felt that people who are free and uninhibited by nature must have softness in their hearts.
Ah Yue is hidden in the softest place in Li Bai's heart.
I don’t know if the Li Bai I wrote has what everyone wants, but I tried my best.
I wrote seven or eight pages of densely packed notes. If it’s not exciting enough, it’s because my writing skills are not strong enough.
As for the ending of Li Bai catching the moon and dying, I think this is the most romantic ending for the banished immortal.
