burning lamp

When he came back from the back mountain, Xie Fengshu was even more listless.

He searched the entire temple that night but couldn't find Jiang Chen, as if the other party had never appeared before.Xie Fengshu didn't give up, and went to have a look every day after dinner.After several days in a row, the other party still disappeared.

Xie Fengshu began to feel uneasy again, worried that Jiang Chen would not come back.

Thinking about it this way, Xie Fengshu couldn't fall asleep even more, he didn't even go to Xiaoxi to ask him to go out to catch fish and birds.

After three or five days in a row, Xie Fengshu rolled on the bed at night, Xiaoxi finally couldn't bear it anymore, turned over and sat up, with a little anger in his words.

"Are you going to sleep or not?"

Xie Fengshu lay on the bed and looked up, and replied weakly: "I can't sleep."

Xiaoxi stared at Xie Fengshu for a long while, then suddenly raised an eyebrow slightly at him.

"Since you can't sleep, then don't sleep."

He was handsome, with distinct facial features, and he always had a stern face on weekdays, but when he raised his eyebrows, he looked a little sluggish.How can he be so easy to talk, Xie Fengshu looked at Xiaoxi with some guard: "What are you doing?"

"Master went down the mountain yesterday and brought back a jug of wine, which is said to be a rare wine."

Xiaoxi used the tone that she used to lure Xie Fengshu into going up the tree and down the river since she was a child, and lowered her voice, "Do you want to try it?"

"Oh." Xie Fengshu nodded knowingly, "You want to steal Master's wine."

...The child is old enough to be fooled.

Xiaoxi continued to flicker: "I'm doing it for you, do you understand? It's said that getting drunk relieves a thousand worries, maybe you will feel better after drinking. Besides, you are over 200 years old, maybe you will be able to form a pill in a few years." Now, don't you dare to drink?"

Lu Qiwu didn't forbid them to drink - they were all grown up.But Xie Fengshu had never done something like stealing wine in the middle of the night, and it was a bit difficult for him.Xie Ximi glanced at him sideways and asked, "Xie Fengshu, why are you so timid?"

Xie Fengshu immediately frowned, and said loudly: "Who is cowardly!"

"Then are you going?"

"go with!"

The lights in Lu Qiwu and Sui Ling's houses were all turned off. In the middle of the night, the two brothers and sisters didn't even dare to light a candle. They groped into the kitchen one after the other, looking for wine by the moonlight outside the window. The dishes were clanging and rattling.

Xie Fengshu stood guard at the door, and couldn't help but look back when he heard the voice, and asked, "Do you know where you are?"

Xiaoxi felt that being a senior brother would hurt her face, and said, "Why don't you come in and look for it?"

"If I look for it, I will look for it."

Xie Fengshu closed the door carefully, found the closet in the dark, looked down one by one, and finally found a jar of red cloth and black jar of wine at the bottom.

Xie Fengshu immediately whispered: "I found it!"

Xiaoxi copied two bowls by hand, and lowered her voice: "Let's go!"

The two stood in front of each other, as if they were thieves—and indeed they were guilty of thieves. They dared not breathe loudly when they spoke, and wished they could walk on tiptoes. They even opened the kitchen door very cautiously, lest they make any noise.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a woman in white standing at the door.

The wine jar in Xie Fengshu's hand was almost thrown out by him, but fortunately the next moment he saw the person in front of him clearly, and called out softly: "Senior sister?"

Sui Ling looked at the two ancestors in front of him and asked, "What are you doing if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?"

In fact, there is no need to even ask, the wine jar and bowl are still in the hands of the two of them, and the stolen goods are both taken.Sui Ling slapped Xixi on the forehead: "Take my junior brother to steal wine and drink, the master will be punished again if he finds out."

"Just drink a little, Master won't know." Xie Fengshu kicked Xie Fengshu from behind, Xie Fengshu understood, and followed suit: "Senior sister, we are wrong, we will not dare next time."

Sui Ling tapped on his forehead, but she didn't really get angry, she knew that the younger brother was always depressed these days, so she just said: "Don't be an example."

Xie Fengshu smiled brightly at his senior sister, and shook the wine jar in his hand: "Senior sister, do you want to drink?"

They didn't dare to go to other places, and slipped out to sit on the top of the Mirror Terrace.

Behind it is the bright moon rising in the east, and the green hills stretch for tens of thousands of miles, revealing the shadow like ink.In front of me is the endless mountain flowers of the Mingjingtai. Tonight's moonlight is so bright that it can actually reflect a little red of the mountain flowers.

Xiaoxi poured a bowl of wine for Suiling, and poured another bowl for Xie Fengshu.

The night wind blew over the mountain flowers and the faces of several people, causing the tips of their hair to move slightly and scattered in the night.Lu Qiwu's wine is really good wine, it tastes clear and sweet, it doesn't have much acrid smell, but it is easy to get drunk.

The three of them faced the bright moon with thousands of flowers, one bowl after another, saying some inconspicuous words.For example, when Xie Xi asked Sui Ling when she would get married, Sui Ling twisted his ears and scolded him for being unconscionable; Xie Fengshu insisted on asking Xie Xi to call him senior brother, and was almost beaten by the other party on the hillside...

They were all a little drunk, maybe from the sake, maybe from the mountain wind.After finally calming down, Xie Fengshu rested his chin on his knees, looked at the endless mountain flowers in front of him with eyes full of alcohol, and asked feebly, "Is Jiang Chen not coming back?"

Xiaoxi said: "It's none of your business whether people come back or not?"

"I don't want him to go."

"Without this monk before, you still lived well."

Xie Fengshu didn't think this was a problem, so he answered it as a matter of course: "I didn't have him before, so I didn't want him. Now that he's here, I don't want him to go."

Xiaoxi couldn't drink any more, and looked at Xie Fengshu without a word: "You are like the little girl who can't meet her sweetheart as said in mortal dramas."

Xie Fengshu had never heard of opera, so he asked: "What is a sweetheart?"

Xie Xi was just talking casually while he was drunk, and felt that this example was inappropriate after he finished speaking, but since Xie Fengshu asked, Xie Xi had no choice but to answer: "It's someone I like and wants to see every day."

"Oh." Xie Fengshu digested it, and said, "Then Jiang Chen may be my sweetheart."

Sui Ling on the side collapsed a bit: "...don't talk nonsense!"

After talking and chattering, the whole jar of wine was drained, and the three of them were a little drunk, among them Xie Fengshu was the worst - he had never drank so much wine, he could hardly stand still.Sui Ling patted the dust off his clothes for him, and said, "Hurry up and go back to sleep."

Xie Fengshu didn't move, he stood in the night wind for a while, and suddenly said: "Maybe Jiangchen is back, I'm going to the back mountain to take a look."

"..." Xiaoxi glared at him, "Are you stupid?"

Xie Fengshu insisted, "I'm going to take a look."

He became even more stubborn after drinking, and walked down the mountain by himself, but unfortunately he was not lightly drunk. After walking a few steps, he tripped over a tree branch and rolled directly down from the mountain flowers.

The mountain flowers everywhere are lush and lush, and where Xie Fengshu passed by, the vegetation is everywhere, and the bright red petals are flying all the way. Behind him are Sui Ling's exclamation and Xie Xi's laughter.

Xie Fengshu reached the foot of the mountain, finally climbed up, and shouted to Xiaoxi and Suiling who were chasing down: "I'm fine!"

After speaking, he turned around and ran towards the back mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

During the long night, Xie Fengshu seemed to be drunk, but at the same time he seemed to be awake.

He felt that Jiang Chen should come back.

It was already the third watch when Jiang Chen arrived in front of the temple.

As soon as he arrived at Wanguchunxia, ​​he sensed that something was wrong, and instead of opening the door in a hurry, he turned his head and looked at the tree beside him.

There was a slight sound among the numerous flowers of Wan Guchun, and after a while, a red corner of the clothes emerged from the snow-white flowers, fluttering in mid-air.

Jiang Chen's eyebrows moved slightly, he took a step forward, and looked up between the trees.

Xie Fengshu was dressed in red, standing on the thick branches of Wan Guchun.

Because the headband was loose, the hair was half bundled and half loose, falling behind his shoulders.He was already drunk, but he could recognize Jiang Chen, and when he saw the people under the tree, the intoxication in his eyes faded a bit, revealing a little joy.

"you're back."

Jiang Chen looked at him and asked without answering, "Where are your shoes?"

Xie Fengshu was unresponsive, and it took him a while to look down at his feet.

He was quite drunk and came in a hurry. In the panic, the black boot on his left foot disappeared, and he stepped on a tree branch with his bare foot, which was half covered by the red robe and white flowers.

Xie Fengshu thought hard, and finally replied: "I forgot."

Jiang Chen: "..."

Xie Fengshu didn't seem to think it was a big deal, he looked down at Jiang Chen from the tree, and when he met his eyes, he laughed, and said, "Do you know how many flowers this tree has?"

"A total of 710 seven flowers."

Xie Fengshu looked at Jiang Chen, feeling a little proud: "I counted it clearly, you have to remember it."

In the depths of the night, Jiang Chen looked at the person on the tree, and after a while, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and said, "You come down first."

After a while, Xie Fengshu finally understood, he took a step, trying to pick a good place to get down the tree.

But once a person is drunk, there is always a discrepancy between what he sees and what he does. The next moment, his foot slipped and he fell directly from the tree!

Jiang Chen didn't expect this change, and it was too late when he reached out to pick it up, and he watched Xie Fengshu fall in front of him.

When Xie Fengshu fell down, he subconsciously grabbed a branch of Wan Guchun.That branch was too slippery, and it failed to stop him, but instead pulled the branches of the whole tree to shake.So the petals fell like snow one after another, and the two of them were covered under the tree.

Xie Fengshu sat on the ground, his red robe was half covered by flowers, not even Jiang Chen was spared.

Among the flying flowers, Xie Fengshu raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him, and asked a little wronged: "Why didn't you catch me?"

Jiang Chen stood where he was, looking at the people on the ground through the snow-like flowers.

The night is like an illusion, the mountains and forests are cold and silent, only a little moonlight has fallen on the treetops on the top of the mountain, so in the long night, between the sky and the earth, it seems that there is only one eye left.

Thousands of flowers fly, mountains and rivers are drunk.

Before the other party's answer, the drunkenness and the exhaustion all the way came surging, Xie Fengshu tried to open and open his eyes, but he still couldn't resist the drowsiness, and fell asleep crookedly under the tree.

The author has something to say: The flowers are still small and thankful, but only Jiang Chen remembered later (why!) The flowers are like snow and hail, a glimpse of them, I really like this kind of tacky romance.
