ephemera

The fairy was getting closer and closer to the entrance of the cave, Xiyan leaned against me tightly, her heart was beating very fast.

Just when I was getting ready for the Asura Saber, the fairy left suddenly, Xiyan seemed a little bit reluctant, and refused to get up from my arms for a long time, so I had to urge him: "It should be Yaoyan who pushed him away."

"Yeah." He replied, but still didn't move.

When my spiritual power stabilized around him, I wanted to let go of his hand, but I tried to pull it, but the brat still held it tightly. The smell of his body lingered under the tip of my nose, and I suddenly felt a little hot.

"My hand hurts a bit." I made an excuse, although the hand injured by his fan had already been stopped by me.

He immediately let go, dragged me and walked out of the cave. As soon as I walked out, there was a man standing there with an umbrella.

"Can't ghosts see the sun?" Xi Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked at me and asked.

I said, "Yes, otherwise your brother Huaji would be wiped out."

"Then why did Yaoyan hold an umbrella?"

"..."

Enough support.

Yaoyan, who kept looking at us, said: "I think that after leaving the demon world, one should abide by the rules of the human world. From the perspective of ordinary people, ghosts should not see the sun."

"But your feet are still exposed to the sun, well, your hands are also exposed to the sun." I reminded.

The light of the setting sun shone on Yaoyan's body. If you look carefully, you will find that his body is a little transparent. Yaoyan looked at my blood-stained hands and asked, "Did you two meet a fairy official?"

I shook my head and said, "Fortunately, you led us away."

Xiyan was carefully helping me to heal my wounds. Actually, he didn't need his help, but he was so enthusiastic, blowing and touching, which made Yaoyan and I feel a little embarrassed.

"Well, sir, I'll take a step first." Yaoyan walked away holding an umbrella.

I:"……"

When I went back, it was already nightfall. When I first came to the world 600 years ago, there was a clear distinction between the square and the city, and there was a curfew at night. But this time, I found that there is no difference between the square and the city. At this time, when the lights are on, the Goulan wine shop is more lively , people stay in front of various shops, the sound of joy is in their ears, and smiling faces are everywhere in sight.

Xiyan took my hand and asked me, "Have you never been to this kind of place?"

"No." I answered honestly.

He seemed very happy after listening, and said with a smile: "Then I will take you around?"

"can."

The flow of people is like weaving, and I follow him to go forward. The life of ordinary people is fragile and short, but because of this, I know better what "life" is. All kinds of mouth-watering fragrances are floating in the air. Eat well, I feel a little hungry at this time.

But I found that everyone was looking at me and Xiyan. Although I knew that the skin that the Red Dragon gave me was pretty, the residents there would not be so "enthusiasm" whether they passed through the demon world or the underworld.

But it doesn't matter, food and sex are also.

But Xiyan stopped and looked back at me. I didn't understand his intentions, and then he walked to me and suddenly embraced me. Ambiguous.

Immediately Xiyan raised his head and looked at the people around him. Those beautiful sisters, sisters, brothers and brothers all turned their heads suddenly, as if they understood what was going on. To this day, Xiyan still thinks that what Xiyan conveyed was "This is my family." Brother" intentions, I was taken aback.

The understanding of mortals cannot be underestimated, I thought.

After we were out of the limelight, Xiyan asked me, "Juyue, are you hungry?"

"Fortunately."

This is the first time he has recovered and called me by my name.

"I'll take you to something to eat," he said.

I asked curiously, "Are you familiar with the human world?"

"In the first 200 years when the Heavenly Court was peaceful, I often slipped into the mortal world."

I asked, "What are you here for?"

"Buy some nice and fun things for Fairy Chang'e, her Guanghan Palace is really depressed."

He paused, and then said: "Since then, I have been concerned about what good things are worth rewarding in the world."

"In order to bring Fairy Chang'e down to play?"

"No, it's to bring you to play." He said.

...How could he be so proficient all of a sudden?

I went around his arm and took his hands off me, looked at him and said, "Can you tell me about our time now?"

He smiled slightly and said, "Want to know?"

"Ah."

"Who told you to seal up your memory."

I was startled and wondered why he even knew about this. I didn’t even tell Huaji about it, because I only sealed up part of my memory, and I can’t remember the reason why those things were sealed up. And when I stayed with Huaji later, I found that the sealed things did not affect my grasp of the past, so I didn't pay much attention to them.

I said: "Then you should also know that I can't remember it anymore."

He turned his eyes to the side, and said in a competitive voice: "Yes."

Forget it, I thought helplessly, it's fine now.

"Are you angry?" Xi Yan asked.

"No."

Passing by a jewelry store, I stopped for a while, Xiyan asked: "Would you like to go in and have a look?"

I remembered that Talking Ghost once told me in his spiritual consciousness that he wanted to make a new hairpin for Xiyan. I looked at Xiyan's white hair, which was now tied up with a hair tie according to the custom of the world.

But I still lifted my foot and went in, even if it was just a wish.

I took him in, and as soon as we entered the door, a woman greeted us, looked us up first, and then asked with a smile: "What do you two want to buy?" Before Xiyan's hand was on my waist, I Quickly wrapped his arms around his shoulders and said, "Good evening, I'm here to buy something for my younger brother."

When the person who greeted us walked away, Xiyan questioned in a low voice: "Young brother?"

"Any questions?" I asked while looking at the beautifully made hairpins.

"You clearly know that I like you."

"You like me and you are also my brother."

"..."

After searching for a while, I finally found one that fit my heart. After I took out the hairpin, I asked Xiyan to come over and try again. He was worried about what happened just now, and the woman just saw him like this, and comforted him: " What, did you argue with your brother?"

"He's not my brother."

"Oh, no matter how much you quarrel, you can't let my brother go. Look, my brother even bought you a hairpin."

Mortals really understand the general situation.

Xi Yan stood "wrinkled" in front of me. I tore off his headband, and when the white hair fell down, the woman gasped, and everyone around her also looked over, but Xi Yan He was very comfortable and didn't care.

I immediately tried to tie him up in a bun, but I couldn't do it with my clumsy hands. Seeing the disgusted look on the woman's face, I wanted to call out that ingenious talker immediately.

The woman said to me helplessly, "My lord, let me do it."

I smiled apologetically, she came over and tied Xiyan's hair in the blink of an eye, the hairpin matched Xiyan very well, the style was simple, and there were smooth floating cloud patterns carved on it, the white jade was of good texture, warm and translucent.

At this time, the woman said: "Young master has good eyesight, this hairpin only costs eight taels."

Xiyan glanced at me, and I said awkwardly, "Ah, I didn't bring any money when I went out."

However, I still bought the hairpin. I used a jade bead and Xiyan tried to stop me, but I refused him out of face. In order to convince the boss that this jade was collected from "his mountain stone", it has the power to ward off disasters and bring blessings. As a result, I even calculated his birthday like a fortune teller.

Xiyan looked at me jokingly from the side, listening to what else I could make up. In the end, even the customers on the side were moved and insisted that I show them the palmistry. Xiyan left in a hurry.

It's really a bit depressing, I didn't even think that the seemingly most harmless mortal world turned out to be the most difficult place for me to settle. It's no wonder that the creatures in this world are always full of vitality.

Xiyan took me to a small shop to eat his so-called "ice-made diet". Low, I have been too used to hearing it for a long time, and at this moment, I merged with the noisy voices around me. For the first time, I didn't dislike the noise in the world, but I felt sad about parting.

I stared at Xiyan on the opposite side blankly, he must be very happy, the corner of his mouth unconsciously wanted to rise, his fingers were clean and slender, he held the bowl of cold drink served in silverware and passed it over, seeing that I was silent, he asked: "What’s wrong with you?"

"fine."

I took it and drank it slowly, the cold touch slowly spread from the tip of my tongue to my chest, I remembered that Red Dragon once taught me: "Don't be greedy for the world, otherwise you will eventually eat away your pride and forget this great cause."

So the red dragon never stays in the world?As he told me, the immortal official will always be in this gentle land, because only here, the time of calamity is the fastest, and it is different from monsters who may not be able to attain enlightenment after spending hundreds of years. For mortals who have experienced so many beautiful days and beautiful scenery, it is the best medicine for sobriety.

"Don't be sad, we won't be here for a few days." Xiyan said suddenly.

He turned his head to one side, looking at the light scene outside the window, I suddenly felt that I had experienced this scene once, maybe in the memory I forgot, I really came to this place with him.

I don't want to go into the past and ask, "How do we pay for it?"

Xiyan raised his arms towards the window, and suddenly a ten-fang bird flew in quietly and listened to him. He touched the head of the ten-fang bird, and the bird shook its head obediently, and a few feathers fell on Xiyan's hand On, turned into broken silver.

I squinted at him.

"Don't think too much about it," Xiyan said, raising an eyebrow at me, "This is my hard-earned money for working for the Heavenly Court."

"Why didn't you say..."

"Didn't I just want to stop you, you insisted on using jade beads to pay for it."

"..."

When I went back, I was going to ask the innkeeper to add another room. The boss thought about it and said with a smile on his face, "Sorry, guest officer, there are no more rooms."

I looked at Xiyan with a little embarrassment. Although the talker was relatively calm when he was in the same room with him, I guess I can't resist Xiyan's current momentum of wanting to talk to me all the time.

The boss asked again: "Who is this little guest officer? Is there any inconvenience?"

"He's my older brother, so there's nothing inconvenient about it." Xi Yan replied with a smile, and anyone who saw it would think "this little young master is so cute" with that kind of smile.

When Yaoyan watched the two of us come back side by side, before I could say "you stay here, I'll get out", he jumped out of the window and fled. I withdrew my hand that was trying to stop him, and coughed.

I pointed to the bed, and motioned him to go, then turned around and wanted to leave, but Xiyan stopped me: "Brother, do you want to leave? Your spiritual power can't cover my breath for too long, in case people from the heavenly court come again What should I do?"

"I'll send you some more."

"No, my brother's spiritual power is very strong, and I will definitely not be able to bear it again."

"Then can I sit at the table?"

"It's too far away, and your spiritual power can't cover me."

"Then what do you say?"

"Sleep with me."

"..."

He was still three inches away from me in a neat manner, which happened to be the distance that I could cover him with my spiritual power without urging my spiritual power.I couldn't fall asleep, and I guess Xiyan didn't either. I felt his eyes drift from my face to my neck. I turned my head and met his eyes.

I had discovered his feelings for me early on.

In the past, it was not that there were no people who were passionate about me, either because of power, or because of ambition, or because of desire, but before I met someone who loved me and accompanied me, I lost my body in that divine punishment. , lost power, and at the same time lost ambition.

Whenever I look into Xiyan's eyes, I can see a big fire from inside, but those sparks are controlled by him just right, they won't hurt me, but they are enough to warm me.Although my reason makes me think more about his origin and his purpose, sometimes emotions can easily swallow me, especially when I want to be swallowed by it.

"Why did you come to me?" he asked.

"I want to take you to the underworld."

"Why, look at me being scared to death by ghosts?"

I said, "No, help you overcome your fear of ghosts."

He looked at me puzzled and asked again, "Why?"

I said: "Heavenly Court has found your traces, they should know that you are afraid of ghosts, and they don't expect you to go to the underworld, so it is the safest place."

Xiyan took a deep breath and said, "I'm afraid...not possible."

I said, "Trust me."

He didn't ask any more questions, and when the watchman outside called out to the fourth watch, I barely fell asleep, but Xiyan suddenly said: "You didn't drive me away from the beginning, and you were very nervous about me along the way, and you even rescued me now , can you really not remember who I am?"

I didn't make a sound, not because I wanted to be cool, but because I really didn't remember...

He persisted: "Do you like me too?"

I sighed and said, "Yes."

He couldn't hide the joy in his voice, and he said, "Then why don't you want me to come with you?"

"You are still young, and you still have a lot of future to go."

"I am only able to maintain this form because the Heavenly Emperor conferred God in advance, and besides, I have no future to go."

"……"I know.

"Do you want to die alone again?" He used a tone close to questioning.

I was about to say that he was thinking too much, but he suddenly said, "Please, let me go with you this time."

"Don't cry." I said reassuringly.

"I do not have."

"Hey, I'll give you a hug."

"Ah."
