Until the train had started and she was sitting on the train's bed, Jin Yu didn't know whether she was right to decide on this journey. [Full text reading] <Binghuo#中文 Jin Yu is now glad that she bought a soft sleeper ticket. For the time being, she is the only one in this small box. Now she really has no intention to pay attention to other people.
From the distant Song Dynasty to today, eight hundred years later, although it is only a short month, sometimes it feels like a long time has passed, but it seems that it is just a blink of an eye, and everything is within me. The world changed before my eyes.
After the train moved forward for a while, Jin Yu simply got up and sat down to practice the Tianyixin method. Probably because I have a very thorough understanding of Tianyi Xinfa, and my physical quality is quite acceptable, the speed of practice this time is much faster than in the previous life. In this short period of time, Tianyi Xinfa has broken through the first level, and now I have started to practice the second level. If all goes well, I should be promoted to the third level before the university starts. However, the Tianyi Heart Technique becomes more difficult as it gets later, and it becomes more difficult to upgrade as it gets later. The more difficult it is to practice, the more powerful it will naturally be.
The train Jin Yu took was an express train, which was not fast and had many stops. When the train stopped for the fifth time, two people came up to the small box where Jin Yu was sitting.
The two people who came in were all dressed similarly. Both of them were carrying a computer bag, a small handbag and a bag of fast food in their hands. Although the curtains were closed, the view in the box was still clear because it was daytime. The two people who came in immediately saw Jin Yu sitting on the lower bunk on the right, and they couldn't help being a little stunned. Mainly because Jin Yu's facial features were so good and she was sitting cross-legged on the bed in a strange posture, which really made the two of them a little curious.
When the two of them saw Jin Yu's eyes slightly closed, they felt very confident and lowered their voices and spoke softly. In addition to the sound of the train itself, it was still daytime. Even if this carriage was a private compartment, there were often people walking around in the corridor outside. Coupled with previous habits, Jin Yu kept a trace of awareness to pay attention to the surrounding environment.
After the two people came in, they kept talking in low voices. Jin Yu herself felt that the time was almost up, so she couldn't help but open her eyes. The man sitting on the opposite bunk happened to look over, and Jin Yu nodded to show politeness.
The man opposite saw Jin Yu looking over and asked curiously, "I see you are still a student, going out to play during the summer vacation?"
Jin Yu didn’t want to talk to anyone, but she still nodded. The two men opposite him were probably lonely on their journey. The other one also asked, "Where are you getting off? Why don’t you take a plane? What are the fares and discounts for this soft sleeper?" The price of the air tickets is not much different. We are going to Kaifeng, because if we want to take a plane, we can only take it to Zhengzhou, and then it is troublesome to transfer, so the company booked the train tickets for us. What about you, where do you get off?"
"Kaifeng," Jin Yu looked at the man opposite and said this, but still said her destination. Then she got up and left the box. After walking back and forth in the corridor for a while, she returned to the box and started to put the things she bought before getting on the bus. Take out the bread and start eating.
After finishing the simple dinner, Jin Yu took out a book he had brought with him. The passengers opposite probably also saw that the boy did not like talking to strangers, so the two of them did not chat with Jin Yu again. , just chatting between the two of them, and later took out the computer to play games.
During the rest of the trip, whether sleeping, reading, or meditating, etc., Jin Yu just minded her own business and had basically no interaction with the other two people in the box. In fact, Jin Yu herself cannot express her current mood. She is excited to return to her hometown, but she is also afraid that due to the changes in time and space in eight hundred years, her hometown will be nowhere to be found. In such a complicated mood, I really have no intention to talk to others.
At that time, the ancestral home of the Cui family was located to the west of Kaifeng City, in a place called Shijia Village, more than thirty miles away from Kaifeng City. Back then, because Cui's father and the eldest brother of the Cui family were both officials in the court, they also had a house with four entrances in the capital. However, during the New Year or important occasions such as weddings, funerals, birthdays, etc., they would still return to their ancestors. Over there.
Because the Cui family's ancestral home is more than thirty miles away from Fengcheng, unlike in the city where housing is tight, the Cui family's ancestral home occupies a large area. After Jin Yu's grandfather, father and others entered the court and became officials, they expanded and repaired the ancestral house several times, which increased the area of the Cui family's ancestral house even more. Later, the Cui family's ancestral house and garden occupied an area of Hundreds of acres.
Even if we know that more than 800 years have passed and several dynasties have passed, many changes have taken place in various places. Especially in the past few decades, various places have carried out economic construction and demolition has been carried out everywhere. But after all, the Cui family's ancestral home occupied a large area and was built very solidly, so Jin Yu still had some extravagant hopes. Maybe some traces could be found in the cemetery of her ancestral home.
By noon of the next day, the train was rarely delayed and arrived at Kaifeng Station on time. Jin Yu got off the train with the two people in the box and other passengers.
After Jinyu left the train station, she thought of what she had heard in the news, saying that there were more scammers and thieves near the train station, and there were also a lot of illegal cars, so after leaving the train station, she deliberately walked a little further before hailing a taxi. .
After Jin Yu got in the car, she asked, "Master, how much does it cost to go to the western suburbs of Kaifeng City?"
"Where is the western suburbs? The western suburbs are too big, right?"
The previous ancestral home was more than thirty miles away from Fengcheng, but cities everywhere were expanding, and Kaifeng City must be the same, so Jin Yu couldn't really tell the specific location.
"Actually, I'm not too sure, because I haven't been back for many years. Master, why don't you send me to the western suburbs first, and then look for you slowly when you get there? I'll rent your car today, and I won't let you The one who suffers.”
The taxi driver was a middle-aged man. Hearing Jin Yu say that he hadn’t been back for many years, he couldn’t help but turn around and look at him, thinking to himself that you are only ten years old at most, and you haven’t been back for many years. A few years ago you didn’t know where you were!
Because there are often news about taxi drivers being robbed, generally speaking, many drivers are now reluctant to go to more remote places. However, the driver saw that Jin Yu was young, probably still a student, polite and well-dressed, and from a good family, so Jin Yu didn't refuse when he said he wanted to go to the western suburbs. But even so, it was better to ask clearly.
"You haven't been back for many years? I think you're not very old. Also, where are you going in the western suburbs? Give me a rough idea. Maybe I can know something."
Hearing what the driver said, Jin Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly when she thought of her age. But she couldn't tell the truth, "Sorry, I came here once with my family when I was very young. I only knew it was in the western suburbs of Kaifeng City." , now because all the elders in the family have passed away, I don’t know the specific address. I’ll look for it slowly when I get to the western suburbs, maybe I can find it.”
Hearing what Jin Yu said, the middle-aged driver started the car and asked curiously, "Are you going somewhere in the western suburbs? Do you have anything to do?"
"My ancestral home is twenty or thirty miles west of Fengcheng, in a place called Shijia Village. I only know where the ancestral home is, but I don't know the specific address. Because the elders in the family have passed away for a long time, and these years I have never come to worship in person, but this time I came back specially to worship."
"He is a filial child. Let's leave the city first and then look for him slowly when we get to the western suburbs!"
After she made it clear to the driver, Jin Yu didn't say anything more. She just leaned back in her chair and looked at the buildings passing by outside the car window, feeling the modern city. Instead of feeling happy because of the rapid changes in this city, I only felt deeply melancholy.
When it comes to urban modernization, Yangcheng, the city where Jin Yu currently lives, is not much more advanced than Kaifeng City. But Jin Yu had never lived in this southern metropolis in his previous life and was not familiar with it. For him, it was a completely unfamiliar place. So when I first came to this place, I just lamented the modernization of this city and didn't have many other thoughts.
Even though Jin Yu stayed with his master all year round, he would return to Kaifeng City every year, so Jin Yu was very familiar with the former Kaifeng City. But now looking at it all the way, Jin Yu can't find any similarities in this Tokyo city that she was once very familiar with.
Even though Jin Yu had been fully prepared mentally, she was still extremely disappointed and desperate at this moment. Will the Cui family's ancestral home be like this once familiar city, with no trace left?
But if he hadn't taken this trip in person, he would never admit it, and he wouldn't admit it. If he hadn't personally verified it, he would never really give up.
Only now did Jin Yu truly realize that her journey home, even if she had been unwilling to admit it, was actually destined to have this result from the beginning. She would definitely return disappointed. After eight hundred years of time and space transformation, the mountains and rivers had changed. Time, no force can stop it, and no one can stop it!
