Be a real Phoenix man

"It's only now that I know that that thing is not a dinosaur egg, it cannot hatch a dinosaur." Xie Canglin said slowly: "It hatched a phoenix."

Speaking of this, the two audience members seemed a little nervous. Fang Yibai even stood up and looked around. He walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, opened the curtains, and looked out.

The sunshine outside the window was just right, and the sycamore trees with fallen leaves stood there quietly, and the two sparrows flew away chirping, and flew to the distant blue sky.

The surrounding area is very quiet, and no one will pass by.

Xie Canglin watched Fang Yibai's movements, smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Fang, it's not just him, your identity is also very strange. For example, why do birds get frightened when they see you and fly away in a panic? Why did Qingluan's fire almost never hurt you? Haven't you thought about it at all?"

Fang Yibai's eyebrows twitched, his expression sank, and he opened his mouth to ask, "Why?"

Xie Canglin looked straight into his eyes, and responded: "Because, like Qingluan, you are not an ordinary person. According to my guess, you should carry some kind of alien magical gene or magnetic field, which makes birds Humans show fear of you, which is the exact opposite of birds' attitude towards Qingluan."

"It's just that the biggest difference between the two of you is that Qingluan's own attributes and race have never changed. He is a phoenix that has been sealed for thousands of years, and you, Mr. Fang, besides carrying this Except for the magnetic field, you are no different from human beings. Why can an ordinary human being live in peace with a phoenix, and there is even a symbiotic phenomenon between the two? Even I can't figure out the reason. "

Hearing this, Ye Qingluan looked worriedly at Fang Yibai who was standing by the window and began to light a cigarette, then turned back to look at Xie Canglin, and asked, "But, is this strange?"

"In..." Ye Qingluan paused, thought about his words, and said: "A long time ago, my parents, my classmates and I could get along peacefully... It can barely be considered peaceful."

He seemed to have suddenly remembered something, the expression on his face changed, and his eyes fell into a kind of depression that seemed to be a memory.

"Look, child, even you are so uncertain." Xie Canglin's tone became a little unbearable, and he said slowly: "Please allow me to make some guesses about your experience. Before you lived with Mr. Fang, You've been living alone, right? As far as I know, you've been living alone since high school—I have to apologize for that, I did a little research on your past before coming here—and the reason why you left school, Leaving the family is not just about revealing one's sexuality."

The more he said, the more unbearable his eyes became, and a kind of pity and kindness appeared: "Because, in fact, as an outstanding Feng Clan, it doesn't matter whether you like girls or boys. Except for this person, you don't care about anyone else." I like it, but I don't get in touch with anyone, that's why I was scolded by my classmates as... gay." He pointed to Fang Yibai, who looked at Ye Qingluan with a heartbroken expression.

Fang Yibai walked over with strides, he hugged Ye Qingluan tightly into his arms, without concealing his movements.

"Really, after learning about your past experience, I really regret it more and more. I regret that I didn't fight hard and left you in the Academy of Sciences." Xie Canglin raised his eyes, and his voice was full of vicissitudes: "My child ,sorry."

Ye Qingluan was a little stunned.He wanted to comfort the old scientist in front of him, but he didn't know where to start. His dusty memory flowed into the past time with the vicissitudes of his eyes.

It is different from Xie Canglin's description.Ye Qingluan didn't remember Mount Everest, the thrilling trip, or the short time he spent in the Academy of Sciences.

He only remembered that he was a child picked up by his parents.If that still counts as "parents."

It may be three years old, it may be two years old, or it may be one year old. When he can remember, he only knows that he seems to have lived in that family for a long time.

He didn't know why the couple picked him back, because he never got love there.

Maybe it's just to fill the boredom of life, or maybe it's just to find fault and disgust the other party.Ye Qingluan only remembered that whenever the two of them quarreled at that time, he would be used as a shield and a punching bag.Insulting and beatings are commonplace.

If he can bear it, he may not be kicked out, at least he will always have a place to stay.

In fact, since Ye Qingluan grew his tail, he can't remember many things that happened a few years ago, but now that Xie Canglin mentioned it, he suddenly remembered it.

It turned out that he was not kicked out of the house because of his sexual orientation at all, but was forced to leave because he could not "get along peacefully" with the couple as Xie Canglin said.

When he was a child, he would extinguish the fire of the gas stove for no reason, and when the two of them were fighting, he would burn a hole in the curtain because of the emotional fear... At first, the husband and wife thought that the other set the fire , It was not until later that they finally discovered that Ye Qingluan did it.

As a result, all kinds of quarreling and scolding ensued. In the end, Ye Qingluan's academic performance in high school went from bad to worse, and he became the only thing they kicked him out of.

Since then, he has lived alone.

In this way, in his life, he really only met Mr. Fang who treated him so well.But only this one is enough.

Ye Qingluan glanced at Fang Yibai gratefully, his gaze was like a clear and rippling lake.

Xie Canglin coughed lightly, he regained his emotions, withdrew the vicissitudes in that expression, and turned to look at the two earnestly: "I know that many things that happened back then were caused by my weakness. I have regretted this for the rest of my life. But now, because of Jiang Tao’s unintentional essay, I finally regained the news of Qingluan. Please forgive me, I really can’t restrain my excitement and joy..."

"Today, I sincerely invite Qingluan and invite you to return to the National Academy of Sciences again. I, no, we really need you."

What he wanted to say had already been finished here. He stood up again and bowed deeply to the two of them.

By the time Xie Canglin left, the sun had already slid from the south to the western sky, and the gorgeous sunset covered the entire sky.

The two watched Xie Canglin's back going away without speaking, and returned to the living room silently, blending in the silent air.

The amount of information Xie Canglin brought over was too much, and Ye Qingluan had to digest it carefully before he knew what to do next.

Xie Canglin said that only with the help of Ye Qingluan can we explore the secrets of thousands of years ago and uncover the mystery of human origin.

He raised many doubts about Ye Qingluan.

Why can that egg be preserved for tens of millions of years for such a long time.

Why did Ye Qingluan look like a human child as soon as he hatched, and why did he not grow a tail until he was 25 years old.

What is the relationship between the Phoenix Clan and humans?Where does Fang Yibai's own magnetic field come from...

And so on, it was like a bunch of huge mysteries shrouded him.

Jiang Tao’s paper proposed an explanatory model: after he saw the strange species in the primeval forest in Africa, he believed that the Feng family like Ye Qingluan should also be similar to the primitive birds in Africa, and they would only grow in a suitable environment. It retains its original features, but once it is thrown into the modern highly alienated society, it will follow the law of the jungle and assimilate with human society, so it will appear human.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingluan frowned on that handsome and delicate face, like ripples on the surface of a beautiful lake.

Fang Yibai looked at it and couldn't help but want to smooth it.

He held Ye Qingluan in his arms and said softly: "Qingluan, if you want to ask the question to the end, I will accompany you. It doesn't matter whether there is an abyss or hope ahead. No matter what you do, I will support you ,be with you."

His voice was very soft, like a feather gently fluttering in his heart.Ye Qingluan brought his lips closer, and pressed a light kiss.

He didn't answer well, nor did he answer badly, but wanted to keep the tranquility and warmth of this moment in his heart.

Half a month later, Ye Qingluan and Fang Yibai came to the capital together, and they turned into a courtyard according to the address Xie Canglin provided.

It's a not terribly grand building, in stark contrast to the other modern skyscrapers around it.The brick-red walls and the style of glazed flying tiles imprint a sense of vicissitudes of time, as if they have witnessed many winds and rains of the times.

On the side, the big characters of "National Academy of Sciences" are shining brightly under the caress of the rising sun, timeless and new.

Ye Qingluan glanced at the big characters with complicated emotions, and walked in.
