Bright Moonlit Night

The person in front of him made Jin Yi wrap himself in enthusiasm, but what he said made Jin Yi fall into an ice cellar.He opened his mouth, but failed to utter a single word. After taking a deep breath, he said, "I have a question, and I want to ask Dr. Fang for advice." There was an uncontrollable trill in his words.

Fang Fan asked, "Doctor Fang? Is it my servant? Or my father?"

"It's you."

"Excuse me."

"Doctor Fang is good at temperament, can you know a piece of music?"

"I don't know what tune it is?"

"'Moon Night'."

"Sorry, there are countless piano scores in the world. If it is not a famous song, it is not easy to hear it. Please forgive my ignorance."

Fang Fan's demeanor was composed, Jin Yi tried to spy something from his eyes or words, but it seemed to be in vain.

He asked again: "If it's some private matter, would Dr. Fang be willing to answer it?"

"Please speak first."

"Doctor Fang must not be a local, right? Where did he come from? Why did he come here?"

"I am indeed not a local. Three years ago, my father and I came here from the south of the Yangtze River. Because my father was rescued by a merchant traveler when he was trapped in the desert in his early years, the captain of the caravan was from Xianquan Town. My father was originally a Bring it down here to meet the old man, but the old man has passed away, so we plan to live here temporarily, do something for the local people, and have the right to repay the favor."

"Is that so?" Jin asked in a deep voice.

"Exactly." Fang Fan smiled back, "I just don't know why the young master asked these things?"

Jin Yi remained silent for a while, and then said: "Because Dr. Fang and... are very similar to a close relative of mine."

"The world is so big, there are no surprises. But the next is the next, and your closest relative is your closest relative. No matter how similar they are, they are not the same person after all."

Fang Fan's gentle tone was more blowing than the strong wind, Jin Yi felt that all the heat in his heart had dissipated, and what was left was a more obvious coldness and emptiness.

"Sorry, I was rude. Thank you, Dr. Fang, for clearing my doubts. I will leave now." Jin Yi said, turning around to leave, but he couldn't help looking at Fang Fan again. This face was clearly seen in dreams countless times Why, why, why not him?

Fang Fan was embarrassed by Jin Yi's stare, and couldn't help lowering his head, but saw Jin Yi's hands.

"My lord, wait a moment, your hands are chapped, go down and get some ointment, you take it back and apply it after washing your hands." Fang Fan then went into the room to look for medicine.

Jin Yi stared at his back, and when he came out, his eyes followed his approaching figure until a large medicine bottle was handed to him.

He reached out and took it, "Thank you, Doctor Fang, how much do I need to pay you?"

Fang Fan smiled and shook his head, "If I'm not right, please forgive me for lying: From the perspective of the young master's demeanor, he should be a high-ranking general in the guarding army of Longshuo Pass. The general defends the country with hundreds of battles, and keeps my Xianquan Town safe and sound. The insignificant ointment is just a little bit of my heart, I hope the general will accept it."

In the past, Jin Yi never received favors from people who were not relatives or relatives, but now he took the medicine bottle, nodded and said: "In that case, thank you, Doctor Fang."

Seeing that he picked it up, Fang Fan still smiled, "It's easy, general."

Jin Yi clutched the medicine bottle and left, but when he reached the door, he stopped and turned around, raised his eyes and asked: "Are you—really not him?"

Fang Fan replied without hesitation, "I'm just me."

As Jin Yi left, Fang Fan faintly heard his soft smile left at the door, as if mocking himself, but also felt lonely.

After returning to Longshuo Pass, Jin Yili sent someone to ask the governor of Liangzhou to help find out the ins and outs of Dr. Fang and his son. The information he got a few days later was exactly the same as what Fang Fan told him.The last extravagant hope in his heart was cut off, and the ointment in the bottle gradually healed his chapped hands, but it had no effect on the cracks in his heart.

Previously, every time he went to bed at night, Jin Yi would silently compare them.After learning the truth, he didn't want to think about it anymore.But when I wake up in the middle of the night, when my consciousness is still hazy, I will think of them unconsciously.

Fang Fan and Fu Ming are indeed very similar, but their demeanors are different. Fu Ming is more gentle, while Fang Fan has a little more slack; their voices are also different.Fang Fan is a doctor, but Fu Ming doesn't seem to understand medical skills... No!When he led the army to the south, Fu Ming once gave him a pack of medicine powder to cure acclimatization!

At dawn, Jin ordered someone to find the prescription prescribed by Dr. Fang a few days ago, and took out some remaining medicinal powder from the small bag he carried with him, and asked the military doctor to identify whether the ingredients in the prescription and the medicinal powder were the same.In the end, when the military doctor informed him of the identification results, he said that "there are three medicinal materials that are the same, but these are common medicines in prescriptions. Although their medicinal effects are relatively similar, they are essentially two different prescriptions."

Hope is regained again and again, but it ends in despair.Just like when he went back to find Fu Ming who had left home, he only brought back embarrassing results.

Jin Yi reflected on himself, whether he lost his mind and did something he shouldn't do.Fu Ming is gone, he is unique, even if there is another person who is very similar to him in this world, it will not be him.Then, why do I have to be so eager and stubborn to prove that the other person is him?This seems to be able to comfort myself and make up for myself, but it is disrespectful to Fu Ming and unfair to him.

"Ye Xin, I was wrong. You are not others, and others are not you. You are not elsewhere," Jin Yi said in a low voice according to his heart, "You should only be here."

After that, Jin Yi no longer went to Xianquan Town.

Winter is getting closer, and few of the soldiers who came here with Jin Yi this year have experienced the severe winter in Liangzhou, and they have no idea of ​​the cold here.When the coldest day comes, the clanking men can't help but call their father and mother.It was really too cold, and this feeling of cracking muscles until the whole body was numb was even more unbearable than fighting on the battlefield.

Fang Fan's whole body was wrapped in thick fur, with only a pair of eyes exposed. He led a few townspeople to bring two carts of medicinal materials, and handed them to the military doctor. A bowl after breakfast."

The nearby soldiers gathered around one after another, helped unload the medicinal materials, and kept thanking Fang Fan. Fang Fan rolled his eyes, nodded, and waved away when they emptied the cart.

When he walked to the entrance of the camp, he met Jin Yi who was leading a group of soldiers. Although he could only see his eyes but not his whole body, Jin Yi still recognized who this person was, but he just cast a look at Fang Fan, but there was no sign of him. The conversation didn't stop, the two of them staggered and separated.

When Jin Yi walked away, Fang Fan turned his head, looked at Jin Yi who was dressed in military uniform, and said to the coachman beside him: "Our general is really heroic."

After the anti-cold medicine was proved to be non-toxic and effective, each soldier was given a bowl.

Jiang Yisun took a few sips, smacked his lips and said, "This taste is really kind!"

Jin Yi casually asked, "Have you ever drank?"

"I did. When we were in the Salesian Bureau, Uncle Fang would force us to drink a bowl every day during the cold winter."

Jin Yi paused, and the soup in the bowl shook, "The Salesian Bureau? Uncle Fang?"

"Well, it's a doctor who often goes to the Salesian Bureau to see us. His medical skills are very good."

"Then—doctor Fang know Fu Mingke?"

Jiang Yisun replied: "Naturally, Doctor Fang likes Brother Ming the most. They are half a teacher-student pair!"

Jin Yi drank the medicinal soup, put down the bowl, took out a medicine bottle from his arms, and threw it to him, "Smell, is this smell familiar to you?"

Jiang Yisun opened the medicine bottle, sniffed it, and said with a smile, "Where did this come from?" Without waiting for Jin Yi to answer, he still said to himself, "In the days when it snowed heavily, we liked to go out to play in the snow. The ointment is applied to prevent frostbite, and it smells very similar to this, and I smell it as if I have returned to that time."

Jin Yi stopped talking, took back the medicine bottle, grabbed Jiang Yisun's hand, and pulled him away.

"General Jin, what are you going to do?!" Jiang Yisun didn't understand why.

Jin Yi pulled him to the horse camp, untied the horse rope and threw it to him, then said: "Follow me!"

The two got on their horses, and after leaving the camp, they rode fast and left in a hurry.

"Where are you going?" Jiang Yisun asked loudly against the cold wind, almost choking on the wind.

"Xianquan Town, go meet your old friend!"

"Old man? Who?"

"Doctor Fang."

"Doctor Fang is in Xianquan Town?"

"You'll know when you go!"

Ma Teng was flying, and they dismounted outside the Fang Family Medical Center in Xianquan Town not long after.

But the door of the hospital was closed, and after knocking on the door, a woman came to open the door for a long time, Jin Yi asked, "May I ask if Doctor Fang and his son are here?"

The cook who came to answer the door replied: "Doctor Fang received the letter and wants to go back to the south of the Yangtze River. Mr. Fang sent him off, but he hasn't returned yet."

"Thank you for letting me know!" After Jin Yi finished speaking, he immediately turned around and mounted his horse again, leading Jiang Yisun to the east road.

On the way, the two met Fang Fan who was sending his father home.He is riding a camel, coming slowly.

Seeing the man, Jiang Yisun was so shocked that he almost fell off his horse. He stabilized himself, dismounted and walked to Fang Fan's side, and asked anxiously, "Brother Ming! Why...how are you here!"

Fang Fan didn't answer, he came down first, looked at Jin Yi, and then said to Jiang Yisun: "Is it true that I am so similar to your old friends?"

Jiang Yisun was startled again, he looked at Fang Fan and then at Jin Yi, not knowing what was going on.

Jin Yi also got off his horse and looked at Fang Fan, "The medicine we drink today was brought by this Doctor Fang. His father is also a doctor named Fang."

Jiang Yisun thought about Jin Yi's words, and Fang Fan said: "So, Brother Ming, you...you didn't...you just followed Uncle Fang away from the capital and came here incognito?"

Fang Fan shook his head, changed his usual calm tone, and said categorically: "How you two guess is up to you. As I said, I am me, not the brother Ming you say. If you insist on seeing me If you are someone else, you don't have to come back in the future." This tone, coupled with his slightly deep and hoarse voice, is indeed different from the feeling Fu Ming gave when he spoke.

After Fang Fan finished speaking, he got on his camel and wanted to leave.

Jin Yi grabbed his rein, Fang Fan couldn't compete, Jin Yi said: "I just want to say one more thing."

"please say."

"Whether you are Fu Ming or Fang Fan, you are you."

I thought he was still going to mess around, but he didn't expect to say such a sensible statement. Fang Fan smiled softly, and rode away on the camel.

Raise the whip when you come, and let the horse rein when you return.

Jiang Yisun asked: "That Doctor Fang, is he Brother Ming?"

"What do you think?" Jin Yi asked back.

"I think it is, but I also feel...it seems not, alas, I can't say for sure."

Jin Yi's eyes were always locked on the back of Youyou in front of him, and his tone was firm: "He is."

"Really!" Jiang Yisun asked, "How do you know for sure?"

"He didn't deny what I just said."

Fang Fan actually never denied that he was Fu Ming, but he insisted that he was no longer Fu Ming.Perhaps, this is the reason why he changed his name and surname to get away with death.Say goodbye to the past and start a completely different life with a new identity.

Jiang Yisun still asked vaguely: "But he also refuses to admit that he knew us, what should we do?"

Jin Yi pondered for a moment before returning with a sigh: "Everything from yesterday is like death yesterday. Since he doesn't want to mention the past again, let's get to know each other again."

He knows that not everything can go back to the original place, but no matter what, what is truly powerless compared to the eternal separation between heaven and man?
