In The Name Of Fang

The sudden light dazzled the PSP screen, Zhou Shu howled, and the game characters were blown out of their heads.After cursing "grass", he looked up and saw Xia Yuzhou who was standing at the door.

The two brothers looked at each other for a moment, Xia Yuzhou didn't know what to say.

Zhou Shu put away the PSP as if nothing had happened and stood up, looking like a gentleman: "Why did you come here? Didn't the mirror be repaired? I'm not afraid that the old man will starve to death inside."

Xia Yuzhou's nose was sore, he took two quick steps and rushed forward, kicking his younger brother's ass: "What nonsense, bah bah bah!"

Zhou Shu staggered from being kicked, and the red hair on his head exploded. He pointed at Xia Yuzhou and said sternly, "You hit me again! You wait, and when I see old man Xia, I will tell him that you have been in the past few years. He bullied me all the time, and even found a man to tell the Xia family to cut off all children and grandchildren."

Si Jun lay innocently on the gun: "..."

"I'm not looking for a man, and the Xia family will have no children or grandchildren," Xia Yuzhou put his elbow on his younger brother's neck, "Again, am I bullying?"

Zhou Shu was a head taller than Xia Yuzhou, and bent slightly to carry him directly on his back: "Ahem, this is the education that my brother loves."

"Hey hey." Xia Yuzhou hugged his younger brother's neck tightly, and the two of them just flipped and played like this.

While they were making noise, there was a sudden commotion outside, and a child shouted: "The cloud is on fire!"

Xia Yuzhou turned his head sharply, and was about to fall as soon as he let go, but was caught by Si Jun.

He quickly ran out of the main room and looked up at the sky.

The blue sky in the distance was suddenly engulfed in red.The snow-white clouds are like ignited paper, which burns as it curls up.Burned away the smile that Xia Yuzhou just put on.

"Huoshaoyun..." Xia Yuzhou hurriedly took out the disease-free mirror hanging on his chest, looked at the sky, then at the mirror, and then at the sky.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Shu was stunned, and asked loudly, "What does this mean?"

"Old... the old man is gone?" Zhou Shu grabbed Xia Yuzhou's shoulder and asked him in disbelief, "Is it fake?"

Xia Yuzhou took a few deep breaths, pushed his brother away, and rushed out with big strides.

"Yuzhou!" Si Jun immediately chased after him, and followed him into the forest.

There is no road from the village to Tianjing, and people in the village never go there.Xia Yuzhou walked through the bushes close to the height of a person with his head depressed, and he didn't even notice that his skin was cut by a thorny tree branch.

Seeing that a dead branch was about to hit his head, he bumped into his warm arm with a "boom".Xia Yuzhou looked up in a daze, and saw Si Jun panting lightly and reaching out to cover his head.

"Huh... the road is hard to walk, let's hold hands, okay?" Si Jun didn't persuade him to walk slowly, but reached out to help him button the hood of his hoodie, tighten it, and then held his sweaty hood Cold hands.

Xia Yuzhou held that hand back and pulled him forward.This time, he didn't act recklessly and ignored it, he pulled out the Wu Ya sword and chopped off the thorns that got in the way.The flustered heart also gradually calmed down during the slashing.

"On the day I sent him in, I was ready to never see him again," Xia Yuzhou said after walking for a long time. "I tried not to think about him, and just pretended that he was gone. If the disease-free mirror is not repaired, he Now I can accept it without it, but it’s fixed..."

Si Jun listened quietly, took a quick step to hug him, and gently rubbed his back: "Take a deep breath, don't be afraid."

Xia Yuzhou buried his face in Si Jun's arms, closed his eyes and took three deep breaths, so that his gradually befuddled head returned to sobriety.

Si Jun took the sword from his hand: "I'll go ahead, you will correct the direction."

Han Shan's swordsmanship is simple and neat, like a gentleman's invitation to dance, which is pleasing to the eye.With Sijun opening the way ahead, Xia Yuzhou was much more relaxed and could concentrate on identifying the direction.

After walking for two hours in the mountains, I finally found the waterfall.

You can hear the sound of water from a distance, and only when you come closer can you know the shock of nature.

The two arched cliffs, with water curtains falling from above, fit together seamlessly.The red light has not yet dissipated, and the gurgling water has been dyed bright, as if the Cangshan Mountain is weeping blood.

"This, how do I open it?" Xia Yuzhou took out the disease-free mirror hanging around his neck, confused.

On the smooth stone wall, there is no groove that can fit the disease-free mirror.

"Plop!" Gu Ji rushed out of the forest, scrambling and scrambling, plunged into the pool under the waterfall, and crawled out coughing: "Cough cough cough...open in it!"

The two ran hand in hand so fast that Gu Ji and Zhou Shu couldn't keep up.

Losing his master's shadow, Gu Ji was extremely anxious, and resorted to the stunt of hanging upside down, flying quickly from tree to tree.The last one didn't stop, and directly swung himself into the Tan water.

"You mean, you want to take the disease-free mirror and open the two-way door inside?" Si Jun frowned, and held Xia Yuzhou who was about to rush towards the waterfall at any time.

"That's right." Gu Ji wiped his face, and reached out to Guan Sijun for a handkerchief, but was mercilessly rejected.

"How do I open it after I go in?" Xia Yuzhou handed him a pack of tissues. Since Boss Xie cried and destroyed a handkerchief Si Jun gave him last time, he has learned to carry tissues with him.

Gu Ji wiped his face and hands clean, and gave him a detailed demonstration.

It's not complicated, Xia Yuzhou nodded: "It's not too late, then I'll go in now." He took a step, but he just turned around and was dragged back.

"Wait," Si Jun held his arm tightly, "This disease-free mirror has not been used for hundreds of years, and Gu Ji just repaired it based on guesswork. If there is anything wrong with it, and the two-way door cannot be opened, You won't be able to get out."

Xia Yuzhou was stunned, looked at the perfectly repaired mirror in his hand, and whispered, "It shouldn't be..."

"That's right." Si Jun looked very serious, "If you can't get out, what will you do?"

Xia Yuzhou bowed his head: "If you can't come out, don't come out. Anyway, my father is gone, so I have to guard the mirror."

"Xia Yuzhou!" Si Jun suddenly raised his voice, forcing him to look up, "Then what should I do?"

"You..." Xia Yuzhou looked at him, his eyes gradually turned red.Yes, if he can't get out, he will never see Si Jun again.With great reluctance, he raised his hand, and gently pressed it against the cool cheek, but Si Jun avoided it again.

Si Jun refused to let him touch it, and gritted his teeth: "Don't be in a daze, tell me, what should I do?"

"I'm sorry," Xia Yuzhou curled up his slightly trembling fingertips, "Actually, after I returned to Yanjing, I didn't dare to look for you because..."

Even if there were no such mistakes, he had no intention of reuniting with Si Jun.

"I am the one who is destined to guard the mirror. I might have to disappear suddenly one day. I can't delay you. But you want to dazzle in front of my eyes. I..." Xia Yuzhou sniffed and said in a hoarse voice, "Too I like you, but I can't help being greedy. I just thought, maybe Lao Xia will live a hundred years, so I can accompany you for decades? I can't accompany you for 50 years, so 30 years, 20 years, it's okay."

"So, now?" Si Jun was not moved at all, but his eyes were red with anger, "Are you going to abandon me?"

Xia Yuzhou burst into tears: "Otherwise? Should we let the two children go?"

Si Jun clutched his wrist tightly, so hard that he almost crushed him: "Xia Yuzhou, you are really selfish!"

Approaching him without authorization, biting his earlobe without authorization, and leaving without authorization for five full years.He clearly swore that he would not leave without saying goodbye in the future, but now he decides to say goodbye forever.This person never took the vows he said seriously!

Xia Yuzhou was stunned for a while, then his brain twitched: "Then why don't you go with me?"

"Okay!" Si Jun responded in a second, and his dim eyes instantly brightened.

"Hey, no, I..." Xia Yuzhou was stunned. This was almost the same as dying for love. How could this person be happy?

Si Jun circled the deceived lover, and said seriously: "Don't leave me behind."

Xia Yuzhou looked at him, a little sad, telling himself rationally not to be so selfish; but also a little happy, couldn't help but leaned over, and kissed those cool thin lips slowly and carefully.

Gu Ji: "..." Faced with the two people's distrust of their skills, they dare not say anything.Silently standing on the side as a rock, quietly watching the two holding hands, generously walking towards the waterfall, and being tripped by Zhou Shu again.

"Ouch!" If Si Jun hadn't pulled him, Xia Yuzhou would have fallen to the ground on the boulder.

"Zhou Shu, you must be sick!" Xia Yuzhou was terrified. If he broke this bloody tooth again, he would be completely toothless.

"You treat me like air, don't you?" Zhou Shu stopped in front of the waterfall.

Si Jun: "What do you want to say?"

Zhou Shu: "I'll go!"

Xia Yuzhou: "No way!"

"Why not? It's best for me to go!" Zhou Shu raised his hand to stop Xia Yuzhou from speaking, and continued like a cannonball, "Listen to me! I said those words because I was excited that day. In fact, I understand in my heart, Only Dad and you are left in the Xia family, you are still so young, you may not be able to live to adulthood..."

Xia Yuzhou: "???"

"Why are you staring at me? This is the truth!" Zhou Shu said confidently, "You are still young, so it is not safe. If your father enters the sky mirror and you die, the inheritance of the Xia family will really be broken. If your father is outside, you can still live." To reproduce some new descendants, whether you think of a way or try your luck, it is more hopeful than my own father outside."

"My dear father probably thought so too."

The inheritance of the Xia family has been cut off, and there are no other ancestors in the world except their father and son, and it is impossible for purebreds to appear again.But to keep those who can still be embraced, how many more are transformed by the initial embrace, and the doomsday can be delayed later.

Zhou Shu stroked the red hair on his head, bared his teeth and showed a big smile: "It's the same now, only you can continue to reproduce new offspring, and you must live well until He Yu's research is completed."

Xia Yuzhou looked at him, sour from the tip of his nose straight to Tianling Gai: "Xiaoshu...you are the top three talented e-sports players in Huaguo...you haven't finished your game yet..."

At this moment, Xia Yuzhou was extremely regretful, regretted not being able to seize the time to create more new offspring, and regretting not being able to cooperate with He Yu earlier to develop the artificial drug.

Before Xia Yuzhou regained his composure, Zhou Shu made a sudden move. With the hand speed of a professional e-sports player, he snatched the Wuji mirror and rushed directly into the waterfall.The hand was so fast that he still had time to draw a circle with blood in the air, tapped on the water mirror, and his body submerged in an instant.

"Little tree!" Xia Yuzhou was stunned and shouted, "You haven't learned how to open the door yet!"

When Gu Ji demonstrated how to open the door just now, Zhou Shu was still running in the woods and was not there at all!

However, Zhou Shu could no longer hear it.

The three of them held their breath and waited for a long time, until the red light on the waterfall disappeared, and when the sun set, there was still no movement.

Xia Yuzhou sat slumped on the ground, slowly covering his face: "It's over, it's over." The work fell short, he lost Wuji mirror and his younger brother.

In the next second, a loud "grass!" came from the waterfall.

"Fuck him, why is this thing so difficult to handle!" Zhou Shu's extremely irritable voice sounded from the water mirror, and in the next second, a red head poked out from it.

Although he is also full of red hair, and his facial features are very similar to Zhou Shu's, but he is more than ten years older.

Xia Yuzhou was stunned: "Will this sky mirror absorb people's life span?"

Then, the red-haired "Aw" said: "Old Xia! Aww! You can go out now!"

Xia Yuzhou: "..."

This red hair, not that red hair, is Zhou Shu's theoretically sacrificed biological father.

Inside the mirror, there is a hole in the sky.

Different from the ordinary world in the mirror, the world inside the sky mirror is not a perfect mirror outside, but a world of its own.There are mountains and water, quite vast, and you can't see the edge at a glance.

Father Xia, who hadn't seen him for many years, stood side by side with Uncle Zhou, who was full of red hair, in an old shirt with holes.The two of them looked like elementary school students who had done something wrong, wringing their fingers, lowering their heads and not daring to speak.

Zhou Shu bared his teeth, crossed his arms and said in a bad mood: "Both old men are alive, today's Huoshaoyun is an accident."

There are no other living people in the sky mirror, only the two of them, and there are quite a few animals. Over the past 300 years, generations of construction have built a pretty good house with everything you need for daily necessities.Wells, granaries, chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep... Except for no electrical appliances, everything else is fine.

The two fathers met Zhou Shu just now and talked about the old days, so they were not so excited.Xia's father just stared at Xia Yuzhou back and forth, very happy: "Dad didn't expect to see you alive."

Xia Yuzhou thought about how he had just left Si Jun outside, and cried farewell to Zhou Shu, and now that his two fathers were well-behaved, he choked on his chest.I can't go up, I can't come down, and I don't know whether to cry or laugh.Seeing his father avoiding his eyes guiltyly, he turned to Zhou Shu and asked, "What's going on?"

Zhou Shu shrugged, and recounted what the two fathers honestly explained just now: "Did you see that well?"

The house in the sky mirror is very similar to the old house in the village.The difference is that there is a square well in the middle of the yard.The water in the well is so clear that it is almost overflowing, and it can be scooped up with a ladle.

This is the only source of water in the sky mirror. Water is the place where spiritual energy gathers, and this well is also the center of spiritual energy in the entire mirror world.When the aura of the mirror guard is exhausted, the well will glow red, which can be seen from the outside.

About 200 years ago, a wizard of the ancient family transformed the well.There is no need to wait for the mirror guard to die. When the mirror guard feels that his aura is exhausted, he can drop a drop of blood in the mirror, and the red light in the sky will notify the Xia family to take over.Since then, the Xia family has taken turns guarding the mirror, basically no one sacrificed, and the family is thriving.

It was not until a hundred years ago that the disease-free mirror was damaged and lost, that he lived a miserable life of filling the mirror with human lives.And because this mirror can only go in and out, and the outside does not know what is going on inside, as long as the sky is red, new people will be filled.There was no return, which led to the rapid decline of the Xia family.

Five years ago, Zhou Shu's father was too lonely.At that time, Grandpa Xia had passed away for many years, and he stayed in this mirror by himself, almost unable to speak for a long time.When he felt that he was about to die from depression, he poured blood into it and summoned Father Xia.

With Dad Xia, the lonely Uncle Zhou was resurrected with full blood, and he lasted for a few more years.

But today, it was because of a mistake.

Speaking of this, Xia's father couldn't help kicking Uncle Zhou: "It's all this troublemaker. I told him that Xiaoshu likes to dye his hair red, so he has to try it."

Uncle Zhou missed his son, so he wanted to imitate his son, so he boiled a pot of Impatiens juice to dye his hair.Because I was lazy, I washed my hair by the well, and accidentally dripped impatiens juice into it.

"Then who would have known that this well does not recognize blood, but red color!" Uncle Zhou was also very wronged.

Xia Yuzhou: "..."

I thought that what I was going to face was the tragic scene of "the loyal bones are buried in the green mountains, and the body wrapped in horse leather is returned", but in the end, it was an old man with holes in his shirt and non-mainstream impatiens dyed his head.

Full of sorrow and joy, only speechless.

"Pfft..." Si Jun pressed his fist to his lips to cover up an untimely smile.

Xia Yuzhou looked at him, couldn't help laughing, and hugged his father vigorously: "It's good to be alive, come, let me introduce you. This is the young patriarch of the Gu family's generation - Gu Ji, this is your untrained son Daughter-in-law Si Jun!"

"Ah, the Gu family, I saw it in the notes here," Xia's father greeted with a smile, "ah, daughter-in-law, I... daughter-in-law? What daughter-in-law!"

Noisy and noisy, chickens fly and dogs jump.

Tianjing ushered in the busiest day in a century.

As the sun goes down, the mirror is also plunged into darkness.

Si Jun snapped his fingers, and the silver moon quietly hung on the treetops.The clear moonlight poured down unreservedly, dyeing the rolling green hills with silver.

Everyone else has gone to bed, and will decide whether to stay or not until tomorrow.Arm in arm, the two of them climbed up the hillside behind the house.

"That's..." Xia Yuzhou gasped when he saw the situation behind the hillside.

Behind the mountain is another piece of dirt hill, on which countless graves stand neatly.A wolf squatted on the top of the mountain, saw the moon as big as a plate, looked up to the sky and howled: "Wow——"

"This is, a wolf demon?" Si Jun looked at the wolf that was rubbing against his feet. It was as soft as a puppy, and it was not as vicious as the evil dogs in the city.

"They were suppressed by Xia Wuya, and all the devilish energy was worn away bit by bit. As long as they don't get out of the sky mirror, they are harmless puppies." Xia Yuzhou rubbed the wolf's head twice, and sat down on the grass casually.

Si Jun sat beside him and looked at the large and small tombstones on the opposite mountain with him.

The Xia family's ancestral tomb is in the sky mirror, guarded and buried here.

Generation after generation, they guard the mirror when they are alive, and guard the mirror with their bones when they die.

Si Jun took off the silver brooch on his suit and turned into a silver qin.

"Can I sing a song?"

Xia Yuzhou's eyes widened. He used to pester Si Jun to sing to him, but this man was never willing to speak, but at this moment he offered to sing.Happiness came so suddenly, Xia Yuzhou could only nod desperately: "Okay, okay!"

Si Jun fiddled lightly, and the melodious ancient piano sound echoed in the silent mountain:

……

The flames lit the sky, and the moonlight disappeared over the mountains.

Since then, there has been no light on the strings.

From blue hair to white hair, I play and sing day and night.

It's all vain, it's all vain.

All poems are not worthy of you, my moon.

……

The deep singing and sad tunes linger in the ethereal mirror for a long time.

Xia Yuzhou smacked his lips: "Why are you singing this, it makes people feel uncomfortable."

"Xia Wuya is buried here," Si Jun turned to look at him, "This is the second half of the song that the ancestor failed to sing to him, I think, convey it for the ancestor."

Xia Yuzhou was stunned for a while, then heaved a long sigh: "Master Xia heard it, thank you for conveying it."

Si Jun put away Shiqin: "Your Xia family, your ancestors are cruel."

"Hey? What are you talking about..." Xia Yuzhou turned his head to reason, but Si Jun blocked his mouth.

"Isn't it?" With thin lips pressed against Xia Yuzhou's, Si Jun let out a voice that almost sighed, "You still want to abandon me today."

Mentioning this, Xia Yuzhou seemed to be pinched seven inches, guilty, speechless: "Hey, what, I..."

"Choose a cemetery," Si Jun sat up straight, pointing to the top of the green hill not far away, "choose now, and we will be buried together in the future."

This is quite unlucky, but Xia Yuzhou is very happy: "Okay, we live and die in the same hole, we will never be separated! You are a member of the Xia family when you live, and you are the dead of the Xia family when you die!"

Si Jun: "..."

Si Jun: "Poof——"

In the end, I couldn't help laughing.

The two got closer and closer, intending to end this romantic night with a long kiss.

"Ding, ding, ding!" Xia Yuzhou's cell phone rang suddenly.

"Damn it, who is it at this time?" Xia Yuzhou took out his phone to see that it was He Yu calling, and picked it up, "Senior?"

"Yuzhou, tomorrow I will announce an important thing, the blood race will usher in a new era." He Yu's voice was as gentle as water, which matched the night quite well.

"what?"

"By the way, let Si Jun know, and I won't call him anymore." After finishing speaking, He Yu hung up the phone.

"Hey, hello?" Xia Yuzhou hung up the phone in a daze, and suddenly came back to his senses, "Wow, there is a mobile phone signal here!"

Si Jun propped his chin with one hand and looked at him expressionlessly.

Xia Yuzhou smiled awkwardly: "Oh, a little episode, come on, let's continue."

Si Jun: "Aren't you curious what he said?"

Xia Yuzhou threw the phone behind his head, and rushed over: "Whatever he does, the sky is falling, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Si Jun caught him steadily, fell down on the grass with strength, turned over and trapped him in his arms.The silver moonlight reflected that handsome face, revealing the small fangs at the corners of his lips.

"Junjun, I swear with my teeth that I will treat you well forever." The small fangs opened and closed with the mouth, making a shallow dimple on the lips.

"Well, I also swear that I will protect your teeth for the rest of my life." Si Jun smiled softly and kissed that overly cute mouth.

"What, haha..."

The moonlight falls evenly on every mountain, dyeing the green grass with romantic silver light.

Tonight we don't care about the world, just you and me, from the past time to this beautiful moon tonight.

"Let me write you a poem."

"Ok?"

"The moon hangs on the sky mirror, and you hang on my heart."

"It's so earthy."

"..."
