Picturesque mountains and rivers of the motherland

Bai Ting considers himself to be a decisive person, and his daily actions are like a knife that cuts gold and cuts jade.

However, these days, every action he takes is one point of hesitation and two points of consideration, which is three points more lingering than the West Lake water.

But in the end, he took Xiao Hei back to the map of Yunnan.

After collecting Shangguan flowers and Cangshan snow, Bai Ting brought Xiao Hei to Butterfly Spring.

Butterfly Spring was the only scenic spot that Bai Ting wanted to complain about in Dali and even in Yunnan before crossing.

Maybe it's because the expectations are too high, or maybe it's because Butterfly Spring is too famous, or maybe the word Butterfly Spring itself is too artistic. Bai Ting came to Butterfly Spring twice and returned with disappointment.Bai Ting even ridiculed in his travel notes that "there is no wife in the wife's cake, and there is no butterfly in the butterfly spring."

Butterflies do exist, in twos and threes, very scattered, and the probability of encountering them is about the same as in any green space in a residential area in Shanghai.

What Bai Ting expected is what Xu Xiake wrote in his travel notes: There are countless real butterflies, with whiskers hooking their feet, hanging upside down from the top of the tree, and reaching the surface of the spring.

Perhaps to make up for Bai Ting's regret, when Bai Ting and Xiao Hei stepped into the [Butterfly Spring] scenic spot, the overwhelming butterflies seemed to overwhelm them.Butterflies of different sizes and patterns spread their wings and connect, surpassing the most gorgeous silk and satin in the world.

Obviously got what he wanted, but Bai Ting didn't have the happiness he expected.

Bai Ting came to the edge of the spring, scooped up several pots, and put them in the storage container.

"Do you know the story of Butterfly Spring?" Bai Ting asked Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei shook his head, just raised his hand to help Bai Ting sweep the pollen from his hair.

Bai Ting remembered the relevant records he saw when he read "Nanzhao Unofficial History".

It is said that there was a beautiful girl named Wengu at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, who fell in love with a hunter Xialang at first sight, and they soon talked about marriage.

Unexpectedly, a local lord, King Yu, coveted Wengu's beauty and tried to occupy her.Wen Gu's parents said that their daughter had been betrothed to someone else, and a horse cannot be equipped with two saddles. Unexpectedly, they angered King Yu, who killed him and took Wen Gu into the palace.Aunt Wen refused to obey, and was imprisoned in the harem.

Xialang came back from hunting and found out that Wen Gu had been robbed, so he entered the harem to rescue Wen Gu in the middle of the night.

When the two fled to the edge of the bottomless pool, they were surrounded by Yu Wang's subordinates and had nowhere to go, so they hugged each other and jumped into the pool.A pair of butterflies flew out of the pool, danced lightly, and landed on the silk tree beside the pool.After one night, the acacia tree bloomed many flowers, attracting colorful butterflies from all directions, which was very spectacular.

In order to commemorate this pair of men and women who were steadfast in love, people renamed the place Butterfly Spring.It has become a place for Bai men and women to talk about love.

It is obviously a common legend of scenic spots, and the story routine is nothing more than a third party's robbery, men and women both die for love, there are not a thousand or eight hundred similar stories in Chinese folklore, but for some reason, Bai Ting Speaking of this moment, I feel very sad.

"You're not Wengu, I'm not a hunter, and they're not Yu Wang. What's more tragic than a sad love story is probably finding that you're not the protagonist, or even love." Bai Ting laughed at himself.

Xiao Hei didn't understand, he only saw two butterflies, one black and one white, hovering in front of him, and he reached out to grab them and give them to Bai Ting, but Bai Ting stopped them.

"Dreams that people can't realize, let butterflies come." Bai Ting said.

Shangguan flowers, Cangshan snow, and butterfly spring water are boiled in Erhai Lake for three days and three nights, and then swallowed.

The first three have been collected, and Bai Ting is still clueless after three days and three nights of boiling in Erhai Moon.

Bai Ting thought that maybe he could think about this problem for a year or so, but Mr. Lang appeared.

"Boss Bai didn't even know he'd greet me when he came to Dali." Mr. Lang was still wearing a thin shirt today, his beautiful body looming.

Bai Ting gave a wry smile, which really spoiled the scenery, and threw the question to the other party.

Mr. Lang: "This Erhai Moon is not difficult. I will summon a flat boat to take you to the center of Erhai Lake when the moon rises. But to make this Erhai Moon boil, you need an introduction to burn the moon."

"Burning moon?"

"As the name suggests, Burn the Moon."

"Where do I go to find this Burning Moon?"

"On me."

Bai Ting: ...

Mr. Lang habitually tore down his clothes, and said with eyes full of autumn, "However, I can't just give you the burning moon."

Bai Ting: "If you want me to sell my integrity, that's fine." Actually, I don't really want Xiao Hei to recover.

Prodigal son: "What do you want? Actually, I can give it to you, but it doesn't conform to the NPC rules, so I will assign you a random small task."

After Mr. Lang finished speaking, the voice of the Shenzhou system sounded.

Shenzhou system: The host triggers a random task, [Bai three-course tea].Task Description: Finish drinking the three-course tea of ​​the Bai nationality.

Bai Ting: It's really a random task.

The three-course tea of ​​the Bai people is the way of drinking tea for the Bai people.

Three courses of tea refer to bitter tea, sweet tea and aftertaste tea.

Bitter tea is brewed with Leixiang tea, which has a slightly bitter taste. After drinking, it can quench thirst and promote body fluid, and relieve fatigue;

Sweet tea is brewed with walnut kernels, black tea and Dengchuan milk fan. It is sweet and delicious, refreshing and invigorating;

Aftertaste tea is brewed with honey, Chinese prickly ash, ginger slices, and cinnamon bark. It is sweet, spicy, spicy and has an endless aftertaste.

Bai Ting did not drink the three-course tea of ​​the Bai nationality before crossing, because his partner who lived with him in Yunnan for three months loved the three-course tea of ​​the Bai nationality. He bought tea sets and cooked it himself. Feeling, what is bitter before sweet, just like life.

Bai Ting is a vulgar person, he thinks this tea is delicious.

Soon, the mission item Three Courses of Tea appeared in front of Bai Ting.Except that the tea set is more refined, it is the same as before time travel.

Bai Ting quickly drank the cows in order.

Mr. Lang seemed very satisfied with Bai Ting's boldness, and glanced at Xiao Hei standing beside him: "Would you like some?"

Seeing Bai Ting drink it, Xiao Hei nodded.

After the task was completed, Bai Ting accepted the task reward 'burning the moon', and suddenly felt a little swollen in his head.Then he asked Mr. Lang, "Will this tea have any side effects?"

"Of course, tea without side effects can't be used as a quest item."

Bai Ting: ...

It's my own intention.

"What are the side effects of this tea? Death in three steps? Return to the west in seven steps? Bewitched?"

Prodigal son: "What are you thinking? Our props are also in line with the core values ​​of socialism."

Bai Ting: ...

There is no need to force it up.

Prodigal son: "After drinking these three courses of tea, it is easy for people to tell the truth after tea."

Bai Ting didn't take it seriously, his mouth was on himself, it was not up to him to decide what to say.

But soon, Bai Ting regretted it.

Bai Ting called Xiao Hei, and wanted to set off to Erhai Lake together, but the words came out: "Xiao Hei, can we meet again in the future?"

When the words came out, both of them were stunned in place.

Bai Ting wanted to say the whole thing, but unexpectedly, he opened his mouth and spoke from the bottom of his heart.

"You know, I really hope that I am a reckless person who can be willful regardless of the consequences. But I can't. As a person with a sound mind and a sense of responsibility, I know that I can't block other people's lives."

Xiao Hei looked bewildered.

Bai Ting has finally realized the power of "telling the truth after tea", which is beyond the control of the mind.

"Baibai, are you okay?" Xiao Hei asked.

Bai Ting just wanted to answer briefly "It's all right", but there was a long list of words in his mouth.

"You know, I have never liked someone so much. It seems that the enthusiasm and love accumulated over the past 30 years have been poured into this moment. I have been dreaming for the past few days, until we parted. I I think at that time, I bid farewell not to a person, but to the time I spent with you, from the long grass to the orange yellow orange green, not long, but enough for me to never forget.”

Bai Ting simply gave up on himself and let the words in his heart blurt out.

"My liking for you is no longer one-sided, but the desire to grow old together."

As soon as the words came out, Bai Ting felt his face flushed and his heart rate speed up, but he was inexplicably relieved.Whether before or after time travel, this is his first confession.

Bai Ting didn't dare to look at Xiao Hei's expression.

Xiao Hei stared at him, his eyes were moist and sparkling.Dali's sunshine fell on the handsome and unparalleled face, like a layer of light golden colored glaze.

"Baibai, I like you so much."

"I know."

Looking at Bai Ting's indifference, Xiao Hei seemed to want to express something, but couldn't get the proper vocabulary.However, there is a longing in his heart, which must be expressed.

"It's not the ordinary liking, it's Xu Xian's liking for the white lady."

The sky in Dali is very clear, just like Bai Ting's heart at this moment.

He felt a bit of unspeakable joy popping out from the bottom of his heart, flowing in his blood, warm, like a small courtyard with no wind and no one in the afternoon, full of sunshine, and the fragrance of birds and flowers.

Bai Ting looked at the young man in front of him.

He admitted that he is a face control person, and he was passionate about Xiao Hei at first because of Xiao Hei's face.However, during the year of getting along, Xiao Hei has become the best link between him and this strange world, so that he will not be cowardly, and can enjoy the mountains and rivers as before.

Bai Ting was a little choked up, and looked up at Dali's sky.

Cangshan is silent, Erhai Lake is silent, and all the beautiful scenery is changing in the vicissitudes of life.Life is nothing more than this, and life and death are thrown in the long years, but it is just a moment of waves.

"If you still like me after becoming Lou Kaimo, then let's try to be together."

==

Bai Ting Xiaohei and Mr. Lang took a wooden boat and drifted slowly in Erhai Lake.

Erhai Moon is famous far and near, because the water quality of Erhai Lake is extraordinarily pure, so the reflected moon is extremely bright.

Of course, people prefer romantic stories to scientific interpretations.

It is rumored that a fairy yearned for love in the world, went down to Erhai Lake, and married a fisherman.In order to help her husband and other fishermen, the fairy put a precious mirror into the Erhai Lake, like the moon in the sea, illuminating the Erhai Lake brightly, which is convenient for the fishermen to fish.

There is no moon next to the 25184 star, but it does not prevent the Shenzhou system from creating a round moon like a silver plate in Erhai Lake.The bright moon is so bright that it seems to emerge from a bath in the Erhai Lake, making it difficult to tell whether the bright moon is born on the sea or the bright moon falls into the mundane world.

"The moon is floating on the sea, the boat is sailing on the blue waves, and people are swimming in the painting", this should be the most comfortable scene for Bai Ting, but at this moment there is a touch of sadness lingering.

The boat sailed to the moon in the Erhai Lake, and Bai Ting put the collected Shangguan flowers, Cangshan snow, butterfly spring water, and the mission prop Burning Moon into it.

The surface of the water was shimmering, and the full moon on the sea glowed with orange light. Gradually, the moonlight of the Erhai Lake became complex, white, pink, and earthy, like a woman's overturned eyeshadow palette.In just a split second, the entire moon was on fire, and a one-meter-high flame rose from the surface of the water.

The fire has no temperature, even a little cold, and the boat rowed through it, as if passing through the cold spring.

Young Master Lang lazily said: "It's time to return, and I will come back to retrieve it in three days and three nights."

==

Three days later.West Lake Villa.

The soft morning light paints the small courtyard with a layer of honey.

Bai Ting, whose biological clock was always on time, had already woken up, but rarely stayed on the bed, not wanting to get up.

After Xiao Hei finished his breakfast, he waited and waited for Bai Ting, feeling a little disappointed.Obviously two days ago, Bai Ting would sit at the dining table, watching him cook a bowl of noodles and fry an egg, his eyes were full of tenderness and love.

It seems that after exchanging heartfelt feelings that day, his dependence and nostalgia for Bai Ting grew deeper.

The doorbell rang twice, Xiao Hei wanted to ignore it, but the doorbell rang with perseverance.Reluctantly, Xiao Hei opened the door.

Outside the door was Cheng Zhi and his party.

For these three people who have been blacklisted, Xiao Hei has no good face.

Gu Guanyu looked at the hot mixed vegetable porridge on the table, sniffed his nose: "It seems good, I'll try a bowl." After saying that, he wanted to pick up the untouched bowls and chopsticks on the table.

Snapped.Gu Guanyu's hand was knocked aside, needless to say, it was Xiao Hei who did it.

Wang Peng looked at Gu Guanyu sympathetically, and gave him an expression of "Why do you love to humiliate yourself so much".

With the movement downstairs, Bai Ting had no choice but to go downstairs.

"Boss Bai." Cheng Zhi went up to meet him and explained his purpose.

It turns out that in a few days, it will be the Shenglou Group's shareholders meeting, and Lou Kaimo needs to attend it.Cheng Zhi came here this time in the hope that Bai Ting could persuade Xiao Hei to go back with him.

"Is it okay for him to go back in this state?" Bai Ting asked.

Cheng Zhi: "Don't worry, if we dare to do this, we must be fully prepared, and we won't let outsiders see anything strange."

Bai Ting stared at him suspiciously, no matter how he looked at the combination of this man and Xiao Hei, it was like "holding the emperor to command the princes".

Just then, the doorbell rang again.

It was unexpectedly lively this morning.

When Bai Ting opened the door, he was a little surprised that it was Mr. Lang, an NPC from Dali.

"Boss Bai, the medicine you refined in Erhai Moon last time is ready, and I brought it to you." Mr. Lang handed over a beautiful crystal jar.

Bai Ting: ...

You don't have to work so hard.

Bai Ting originally wanted to delay for a few days, but he didn't expect that the sky couldn't help him.

That's it.

Something will occur if it belongs to your life, if not, do not push it.

Bai Ting handed the crystal jar to Xiao Hei: "Xiao Hei, come, have a drink."

Cheng Zhi looked at the strangely colored liquid in the crystal jar: "What is this?"

Bai Ting: "Medicine."

"This thing...can you let the boss drink it?" Cheng Zhi was a little distrustful, this thing didn't look like medicine from top to bottom, not to mention that the person who brought it had a flirtatious face and flirtatious clothes, so he believed in poison more.

Bai Ting was furious, so he didn't trust you so he rushed over, grabbed the medicine and threw it on the ground!

I beg you to fall!

It's a pity that Cheng Zhi just had doubts, and let Xiao Hei drink up the contents of the jar.

After the medicine was exhausted, Xiao Hei didn't respond for a while.

Could it be that the way I refined it was wrong?

While Bai Ting doubted himself, he was also slightly grateful.He felt ashamed of his happiness, but an unspeakable sense of comfort filled his body.

Xiao Hei walked to the kitchen and brought out the hot soybean milk.Halfway through the walk, he shook his hand, the glass fell to the ground, and the soy milk scattered all over the floor.

Then with a bang, Xiao Hei fell to the wooden floor.

"Little black!"

"Boss!"

"Old building!"

There was a riot in the living room.

==

The morning light passes through the shade of the trees in the courtyard, slips into the windows of the villa, and casts light and shadow like fish scales on the wooden floor.The wind blows the leaves, and the light and shadow sway like ripples.

"Doctor Hua, how's the situation?" Cheng Zhi couldn't help but ask.

Lou Kaimo has been in a coma since he fell to the ground, no matter what they tried, it was useless.Lou Kaimo's exclusive doctor, Peng Yang, arrived first to make a diagnosis, and the final result was that there was no abnormality.

The three of Cheng Zhi looked at Lou Kaimo who was lying flat on the sofa, his breath was like gossamer, and his hands and feet were cold.

Lou Kaimo, who can be coquettish and cute, you can bear it if you diagnose that there is no abnormality. Now that everyone is unconscious, you still diagnose that there is no abnormality?Is it necessary to bleed and open the skull to be diagnosed with a condition?

Peng Yang was also aggrieved. The top-notch medical rapid physical examination device he brought showed that the result was indeed the case.

Fortunately, the two didn't argue for too long, and Bai Ting asked Hua Tuo to come.

Hua Tuo patted the gray-blue cloth jacket. "No problem."

Peng Yang excitedly said: "Right, right, I said there is nothing abnormal."

Cheng Zhi was silent.

Bai Ting: "Then why is Xiao Hei unconscious?"

Hua Tuo: "There are too many drug residues, just push out the residue." After finishing speaking, he took out a pen and paper from his pocket, swiped the pen, and handed the drug list to Bai Ting.

Bai Ting took the medicine list in doubt, he is not good at taking medicine.

Bai Ting stared at the paper for a while, with a puzzled expression on his face.

It's not that he can't understand Hua Tuo's handwriting, Hua Tuo doesn't have the fault of modern doctors who draw ghosts and ghosts.

"Cow dung soup? Stinky tofu? Fried scorpions? Dried rats? Hairy eggs?"

Is this a recipe or a drug list?

However, Bai Ting did not question Hua Tuo, and still exchanged raw materials from the Shenzhou system, and cooked according to the recipe himself.

When the steaming hot food was put on the table, Cheng Zhi and the others all looked terrified.

What are these dark dishes that are stinking to the heavens, or look horrible, or just look at them!

Seeing the expressions of these people, Bai Ting calmly put a piece of stinky tofu into his mouth, then had another mouthful of cow dung soup, and said to them: "It's delicious, and it's also very nourishing. Have a bite?"

Cheng Zhi and the others took a few steps back.

Bai Ting shrugged. When he introduced this kind of food to foreign friends, he also received the same expression of horror and resistance.

Bai Ting looked at Hua Tuo, wondering if he was planning to wake up Xiao Hei.

Facts have proved that his thinking is correct, but Hua Tuo is more insane.He scooped all the food into a giant medicine jar, and began to fiddle with it with a pestle. Finally, a dark sticky substance with grease floating was born.

Bai Ting: ...

Although the original food is a dark dish in the eyes of many people, it is a rare delicacy in the world for those who know how to taste and appreciate it.

And the pot in front of Hua Tuo at this moment is really the essence of dark cuisine preserved to the extreme.This cooking skill was probably passed on by his aunt in the cafeteria when he was in college, and he devoted himself to innovative dishes such as "mooncakes fried with oranges in soy sauce".

The moment Hua Tuo poured the sticky substance into Xiao Hei's mouth, Bai Ting wanted to stop it, but unfortunately he was a step too late.

A few seconds later, Xiao Hei sat up straight from the sofa with the appearance of a fake corpse, and then felt nauseous, couldn't hold it back, and vomited on the floor.

Hua Tuo stroked his beard and said with satisfaction: "Well, let's get rid of the disease when the medicine arrives."

Seeing that Xiao Hei was about to spit out all his internal organs, Bai Ting hurried forward to stroke his back, hoping that he would feel better.

"Boss, drink some water." Gu Guanyu took a glass of water from the water dispenser in a doggy manner.

Xiao Hei took the water glass, slowed down, didn't finish his mouth, but looked around, frowning slightly.

Bai Ting thought that he didn't like white water: "How about I make you a glass of milk?"

Only then did Xiao Hei notice Bai Ting, turned his head and looked at each other.

Bai Ting was startled.

Those were a pair of very cold eyes, without warmth, with a bit of calmness when Mount Tai collapsed, a bit of contempt for laughing at the joys and sorrows of the world, but more of an undisguised strangeness.

Bai Ting's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Xiao Hei stared at him for a while and asked, "Who are you?"

Who are you……

Bai Ting also wanted to return the original words of this sentence to the people around him.

It was clearly the same face, but there was no trace of Xiao Hei's mark.

The man who accompanied me to indulge in the mountains and rivers of China, who watched the sun rise and the moon set, the spring blossoms and the autumn fruits, will never come back.

He was the only one left, buried alone in the memory.
