Ukiyo heave

At the time of Mao, Nian Butsheng gently took his hand out from under Jiang Dongshen's head, put on his coat, turned over and got out of bed.

He opened the window a small slit, the sun was still dark, and the cold wind in the early morning sneaked in for a minute or two.Nian shook his numb arm, turned around and gently tucked Jiang Dong's quilt, and walked lightly towards the door.

Jiang Dongshen has always been a light sleeper, now he would squint his eyes slightly and ask vaguely, "Where are you going?"

But Nian Sheng said softly: "Where are you going, brother, it's still early, you should sleep later."

Jiang Dong gave a muffled hum, lay down on his back, and closed his eyes.

Nian Butsheng stood there for a moment, guessing that he had fallen asleep, then quietly opened the door and went downstairs to ask for breakfast.

It was still early, and there was no one in the store, but Nian Sheng was sitting on a bench, looking calmly at a side street outside the store.There were very few pedestrians on the street, and occasionally a carriage or two passed by, and three or four farmers returned wearing hats.At this time Xingxi came down from the second floor, saw that Nian Butsheng was facing away from him, hurriedly turned back, but Nian Butsheng didn't notice, Xingxi was so startled, he was so desperate that he was almost killed He found.He took a deep breath, looked downstairs, saw that he had no intention of leaving, thought for a moment, turned back to his guest room, and jumped out of the window.

The jump landed beside a man who was leaning against the wall, eyes closed, motionless.Xingxi was helpless, patted him and said, "Did you fall asleep standing up?"

Xun Lang opened his eyes and saw that it was Xing Xi who came. He smiled, but he was a little tired. He didn't know if it was an illusion: "I want to find you in your dream, but I don't want you to wake up so early."

"I knew you had to do this. If you don't get up early, you're still waiting for your plan to succeed?"

Xun Lang looked up and saw the window, and frowned, "If you don't go through the main entrance, what window should you jump?"

"How do you know I jumped from the window? I didn't make any sound when I landed."

"There is no sound, but there is wind."

"..." Xingxi raised his voice and said, "Who made Nian Sheng get up so early and sit still at the door, what can I do?"

"Nian Quesheng already knows that he loves his brother. I ran around all night for you, but you don't feel sorry for me?"

"Get lost, am I the one who wanted you to look for that monster? You have nothing to do, and you want me to feel sorry for you, don't you?" Xing Xi walked away.

"So, you don't want to know what I found?"

Xingxi stopped abruptly, turned around and asked, "Did you find out?"

Xun Lang clasped his arms and smiled, imitating Xing Xi's tone just now and raising his voice, "Yes."

Xingxi glared at him, gritted his teeth and said, "I ran around for me all night last night, isn't it cold?"

Xingxi bit the word "for me" very hard. Seeing him compromise, Xun Lang nodded and said, "It's cold."

"Tired or not, sleepy or not, I really love you so much. If you tell me what you have found, I will love you even more. I will contact you more when you feel better, but if you don't Zhiqu—" Xingxi snorted, "If you don't get out, I'll get out."

Xun Lang straightened up from the wall, waved at Xingxi and said with a smile, "Little boy, come here and tell you."

Xingxi was forced to bow her head, very upset, but she still walked over and heard Xun Lang whispering beside her, she was startled, and asked, "Is there such a thing?"

Xun Lang nodded: "So, your plan?"

"Don't meddle, go to the theater. You go with me."

Nian Quesheng opened the door lightly, and put the porridge on the table. Jiang Dongshen was still sleeping peacefully, but Nian Quesheng sat beside him, watching silently.

At this time Jiang Dongchen turned over, a strand of long hair slid down his cheek, but Nian Sheng was afraid that he would be itchy, so he reached out to lift the strand of long hair and put it behind his ear, not wanting to touch Jiang Dongchen like this. But he woke up, opened his eyes slightly, saw Nian but Sheng was smiling at him softly.

"Awake? Sorry, I didn't want to wake you up."

Jiang Dong sat up slowly, and said in a deep voice, "It's okay, I woke up just now when you went out, but these days I always feel tired and lazy, and I don't want to get up early."

Yes, how can I not be tired.These days, Yushan has to go northward every day, stop and go, search and search, and all matters, big and small, are all taken care of by Jiang Dong.Occasionally, Nian Quesheng would drag him around to mess around, and Jiang Dongchen would wash all the mud spots on his clothes.Every time Nian Quesheng stepped forward to help, Jiang Dongshen drove him back, saying that Nian Quesheng would not share his worries and would always add to the chaos.Nian Kesheng knew that this was indeed the case, so he had no choice but to shrink his hands and keep silent, silently sharing some of the things he could do for him, and the whole person was much more diligent.

Nian Quesheng even wanted Jiang Dongshen to rest for a while, telling him that the morning was not bad, but he was afraid that his wife would be upset, so he chose to shut up.Nian Butsheng knows that lovesickness is hard, sometimes Jiang Dongshen just goes to buy something, and Nian Butsheng hopes that he will come back soon.That day, he had a dream in the dream mountain, and when he woke up, he missed him even more.Therefore, Nian Quesheng didn't want to make his couple wait another half a day for them.After all, after being separated for several years, An Zhi is close at hand.

In order to appease Jiang Dongshen, Nian Sheng stepped forward and patted him on the back, and said with a smile: "Brother, you have worked hard, get up and have some porridge, although the red dates and white fungus porridge here is not as good as your Jiang's porridge, but I just tasted it However, it’s okay. Brother, get dressed first, and I’ll call my husband.”

After about a stick of incense, the three of them gathered at the dining table, chatting with each other about their future plans, when the couple suddenly asked: "Mr. Nian, Mr. Jiang, met by chance, why do you help each other so much? "

It was originally a question, but I filled in thirteen points of gratitude with nowhere to put it, but Nian was not very good at speaking, so I didn't know how to answer it decently, so I had to turn my attention to Jiang Dongchen again.Jiang Dong smiled gently: "I have heard that in the past, you and Anzhi quelled chaos everywhere, without taking any money, and saved countless lives. Did the people you saved ever ask you similar questions?"

The couple understood, nodded and smiled, "Understood, Mr. Jiang."

But Nian Sheng added from the side: "Besides, we also hope that our lovers will get married eventually. Brother, don't you?"

Jiang Dong Shen nodded: "Yes."

Nian Butsheng smiled with satisfaction, turned his head and asked the couple: "Shoulian, do you want to walk with us later? Or rest in the bag for a while?"

"It's better to recharge your batteries and stay in the bag. I'm outside, and I can't help much."

In fact, the couple is not as weak as Nian Quesheng imagined, but the couple feels that they are a little bit ashamed between Nian Quesheng and Jiang Dongchen.Second, the couple wants to keep their spirits up, so that when they see An Zhi again, they can take it easy and smile peacefully, just like his little fairy who was alive and kicking around An Zhi in the past, instead of a demon controlled by a resentful spirit to kill countless people. After regaining his sanity The spiritual power has been exhausted, a sick and down-and-out couple.

Nian Butsheng never forced him, he just said: "That's fine, I still say that, call us if there is something to do. Or I will teach you the formula, and you can come out by yourself after reading it."

The couple nodded and went back to the bag. Nian Quesheng and Jiang Dongshen also finished their preparations and went downstairs.

Before noon, Nian Quesheng and Jiang Dongshen gradually left the urban area and arrived at a stretch of mountains. This place is so rich in spiritual power that in early winter, the mountains and rivers are beautiful and the white clouds are long, but the wind is still as cold as ever.When I first arrived at Xuanmen, the compass was damaged because the pointer turned too fast.But Nian Sheng couldn't tell the north from the south, and didn't know where he was, so he had to ask the couple in the kit bag: "My couple, do you know where this is?"

After a long time, no one responded, but Nian Sheng was helpless: "Fall asleep again."

Jiang Dong said in a deep voice: "After all, he has been haunted by resentful spirits for many years, his mind has been somewhat damaged, his foundation is weak, and lethargy is understandable. Don't call him, let's find out the way ourselves."

"Brother, don't you think it's strange here? Although the spiritual power is abundant, it doesn't seem to be used by people. At this time of year, swan geese are still in the cloud and fish are in the water, and the tranquility is a bit outrageous. It is somewhat similar to Zhenmeng Mountain in Yuancheng, so it must be in the middle." Are there any other similarities?" But Nian Sheng picked up a small stone and threw it into the river in front of him, splashing a clear spray, "Look, there are resentments in many places in Taoism, only this one is beautiful. , not polluted by filthy air, can’t this be a paradise? Even if it is a paradise, it can’t be completely uninhabited.”

Jiang Dongshen hadn't opened his mouth yet, when suddenly there was a loud bang, the surface of the water broke, the river rolled two feet high, the waves in the river and the sky surged, and the water hit three thousand miles away, and everything was silent.Only the splash of water is like a thunderstorm in winter.In the midst of this earth-shattering, someone came up against the water, covered in black air, dressed in white, and surrounded by water butterflies. It was the one that Xingxi Xunlang had bumped into.However, Nian Sheng and Jiang Dongshen had no way of knowing all this. After the deafening burst, Nian Sheng recovered his voice: "It's...so big."

Jiang Dongshen stood behind him without saying a word, but Nian Kesheng suddenly remembered that Jiang Dongshen rarely touched the water, and his daily bathing was done very quickly.A trace of worry flashed across his mind, but Nian Sheng turned his head and asked, "Brother, are you afraid of water?"

"It's a little bit, I feel a little dizzy after seeing too much water." Jiang Dong said seriously.

The couple had been awakened by the huge momentum, and asked in their pockets: "Young Master Nian, do you need me to come out?"

"No need, couple, this water monster can drive the water of a river, so it's of a very high grade. Leave it to us. If there is a last resort, we can discuss it later." As he said, he handed the kit bag to Jiang Dongchen with a serious expression. Instantly, she was as gentle as water, "Brother, don't force yourself, leave this to me, just wait a moment, I'll be back soon."

"Asheng, be careful."

But Nian Sheng turned his head and smiled: "That's natural."

The water demon standing on the huge waves tilted his head, the black air still lingering, and said coldly: "Here, Xuanmen Zhijiang belongs to me, who is here to disturb the cleanliness?"

Nian Quesheng smiled and said, "The wind blows the stone into the water, and the two of us passed by here, so I don't mean to offend. My dear friend, let's sit down and talk?"

He couldn't see the expression of the water demon clearly, but he seemed to smell something, the water butterfly in his hand was ready to go, and said: "Lie."

Nian Quesheng always dealt with this kind of situation calmly, half calmly, half carelessly, tilted his head and smiled and said: "Put away the little butterfly in your hand, you see I didn't take anything, why are you so aggressive. We Speak well, but don't move, okay?"

Jiang Dongshen was far away from Nian Quesheng, the sound of the water was rushing, and he couldn't hear what they were talking about, but he saw that Nian Quesheng was still relaxed and reckless, he breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly let go of his hand on the hilt of the sword.Unexpectedly, at this time, a water butterfly flew straight towards Nian Que, exploded beside his ear, and dropped a spray of water, which touched Nian Que Sheng's sleeve, and instantly froze.

But Nian Sheng dodged to avoid the water butterflies that flew one after another, shook out the dagger from his sleeve with one hand, and said with a click: "You... I haven't done anything yet, why are you in a hurry? I didn't mean to harm you , stop first!"

The water demon really stopped when he heard the words, and his tone was the silence of the dust: "You have a very strange resentment on your body, and your behavior is strange, I can't take it lightly."

"My behavior is weird?" Nian Quesheng laughed, "You are the weirdest, right?"

The tricks that the water demon did just now, but the year has already been touched, but I am very puzzled, this water demon is a monster at first, but the spirit is not strong, but the resentment is very heavy, besides, every time With one move, it looks like a witchcraft or evil method, but when it is close, it seems to be blessed with spiritual power.Although the spiritual power in this area is abundant, there is no trace of it being used by anyone.In such a situation, even when Nian was promoted, he couldn't tell what level the water demon had reached.

But Nian raised his hand, and told Jiang Dongshen in a voice that the resentment on the water demon seemed to be self-introduced, and it was very tricky, so Jiang Dongshen should not rush into the battle.Seeing the year, the water demon seemed to be speaking in Fayin, and turned his head to look at Jiang Dongchen.This Wang suddenly became irritable, and waved thousands of water butterflies to attack Jiang Dongchen.But Nian was startled, and shouted: "Brother!" Pointing to the willow tree behind Jiang Dongchen with two orange lights, he shouted, "Block Jiang Dongchen!"

However, the willow tree is too cumbersome, and when he walked towards Jiang Dongshen step by step, the water butterflies rushed towards him like arrows leaving the string.Jiang Dongchen drew his sword to meet him, but it was futile, the water butterfly attacked fiercely, and the southeast branch was frozen, and it was about to be frozen in Jiang Dongchen's hands, but Nian Sheng raised his heart in his throat, and was about to step forward to block him At this critical moment, the willow tree finally stood in front of Jiang Dongshen.

Seeing that the situation over there is still safe, Nian Kesheng turned to face the water demon, and flew towards him with a dagger in his hand, but the water demon ignored him and dodged it.The dagger spun in the air and returned to Nian Que Sheng's hand.But Nian Sheng shouted: "You see clearly! I am the one who hit you, don't hurt innocent people!"

The water demon seemed to have never heard of it, and the attack in his hands continued unabated. The willow tree seemed to be unstoppable, but Nian Sheng turned his head to look at the water demon, stepped straight up the water, and swung his dagger to stab him. .Hearing the movement, the water demon didn't want to talk nonsense, turned around and fiercely blocked the blow, and shot Nian Qusheng down from the two-foot-high water column.When he was falling, Nian Shengyu was about to try to endow him with water to support him in mid-air, so that he would not fall too badly. Before he could exert his strength, Nian suddenly landed on a soft object.The thing that brought him back to the ground was Jiang Dongchen's folding fan.

But Nian Sheng hadn't breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly realized that Jiang Dongchen had left the protected area of ​​the willow tree, and shouted: "Brother, don't come over!" It was huge, as if hitting an iron wall, it shook him into the water.

"Brother!" Nian Quesheng shouted hoarsely, at some point the couple burst out of their bags, pulled out the water butterfly that was due to catch the water demon and hit Nian Quesheng's water butterfly, and shouted: "Mr. Nian! Go save people!"

Nian Kesheng knew he couldn't leave him alone, but he was really worried, so he hurriedly asked: "He is too high-ranking, and you are still weak, can you hold on?"

"If you can't hold on, it will take a while, Mr. Nian, hurry up!"

But Nian Sheng heard that his tone was firm, and he no longer insisted, and jumped into the water to find Jiang Dongchen. The couple seemed to have activated ten percent of their spiritual power today, and the return date was extremely ferocious.The couple felt that this spiritual force was very familiar to them, and thought of the butterfly formation that he and An Zhi used to calm the chaos in the Taoist sect in the past.Only then did he remember that he hadn't seen what the water demon looked like, and when he looked up, he saw nothingness.The water demon was covered in black air, and he couldn't see anything clearly. Through the hazy water mist, he could faintly see a white dress. Looking down along the white clothes, he suddenly found a small... sachet.

The couple lost their minds for a moment.

No wonder the returning date is so brave today, it turned out to be because... met its true original owner.

After murmuring for a while, the couple remembered to call out loudly: "An Zhi!"

The person standing on the water column heard the call clearly, waved his hands and withdrew all his spiritual power instantly, the wind and waves calmed down, and the river surface was quiet.He landed steadily in front of his couple from a height of two feet.

The couple didn't have time to be shocked, but their hands trembled a little. When they lightly touched the cloud of black air, they all dispersed obediently, revealing the face that was hidden underneath, which the couple had been yearning for day and night.

as before.

At that moment, the couple's chest felt as if there was chaos and thunder.He jumped forward and threw himself into An Zhi's arms, hugged him tightly, and buried his head in the crook of his neck, his voice trembling with joy: "I just saw you here just now, and I thought you were extraordinary, but I didn't Thinking...it's you..."

An Zhi didn't hug back, but gently pulled the couple away from his arms, and asked in a daze, "Who... are you?"

Who are you?

"Who am I?" The couple couldn't believe it, looking at An Zhi's face, "An Zhi... you ask me, who is it?"

Before leaving, I vowed to wait for you to come back. I waited for so long, so long that I forgot how many years I have passed, but I have been waiting, even if I can't sleep at night, and my thoughts are empty, even if the ghosts are on me, and the people are betrayed, I was scolded as worthless by the world who once admired me, but I still refused to give up.

Now you ask me, who am I?

What are the days and nights spent together in Fengcheng Mountain, the days and nights of being separated for several years, and the trekking mountains and rivers these days, all for what.

Who can complain about a loneliness? It's a foreword, and it's always light.

The couple took half a step back, lowered their heads, and said sadly, "I am... the couple."

"Shou Lu?" An Zhi hesitated, and murmured, "I vaguely remember that in the world... there was a man named Li Lu who seemed to be waiting for me, but I couldn't remember what he looked like. Where is it, I only know that he is extremely important to me...Sorry, I..."

The couple's heart moved when they heard the words, and interrupted: "It's enough. It doesn't matter whether you remember it or not. It's enough to have your words that are extremely important."

An Zhi looked at the couple for a while, then asked softly, "Are you the couple?"

"Yes, it's me."

"Why... are you called a concubine?"

This sounds like a silly question, but the couple really has the answer: "That year when I first took human form, you asked me what my name was. I didn't have a name at all. You can say that your name is Anzhi, and I remembered a sentence Poetry, never far away from each other, An Zhi admires his lover."

"I feel like I'm missing some very important things from my memory, and I don't want to forget them, my partner, can you remind me?"

The couple smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, let's take our time. Ah Zhi, how much do you remember about the past?"

"Except for things related to you, I seem to remember everything else."

It must have been a whip of forgetfulness, the couple sighed.He knew a thing or two about the Forgetfulness Whip, but he didn't know how to crack it. Forcibly recalling the memory would only cause physical and mental pain, so he avoided mentioning it: "How did you get here all these years?"

"Five years ago, I abolished my god body and fled to the mortal world. When my spiritual power was damaged, I attracted resentment to my body. I know this method is very dangerous, but I vaguely remember that my partner is a demon. I don't want to be a god, I want to be close to him One point, so he escaped from the Heavenly Prison with his derelict god body, turning his grievances into a demon. I wanted to find him, but I couldn't find him, so I came here later."

The couple had mixed feelings in their hearts, knowing that he was having a hard time because of him, and heard An Zhi go on to say: "Are those two your friends just now? I'm so sorry, I didn't want to do anything, but I don't know what happened to me , I couldn't control my mind for a while, the black man was very strange, it seemed that there was something important to me around the man in white, and I wanted to bring that thing back to me, but I hurt someone for a while. At that time, were you there There?"

The couple faintly felt extremely sorry for Nian Kesheng and Jiang Dongshen, stuck out the brass bell from their sleeves, rang the bell and silently read their names to tell them that the matter was settled and told them to go back to the inn to wait for him.After the sound transmission, Xiang An knew, "Yes, it's me."

"Then how did you recognize me?" An Zhi asked.

"The sachet on your waist was given to you by me in the past. It's a long story. After we thank those two young masters just now and return home, I will tell you everything about it."

"go home?"

After hearing this, the couple suddenly had a sore nose.

Then he lowered his head, eyes dimly stained with tears, answered yes, then looked into An Zhi's eyes, and repeated, "Go home."
