Penglai delusion

Xi Mo was startled, and asked after a while, "Master is leaving?"

He really couldn't figure out that such a person would still be willing to go out for a walk.

"...When I first joined the sect, I made an agreement with the sect leader that as a guest, I will write down all the posthumous notes of Qianbiya. There are a thousand cliffs in total, and I will leave when I finish copying."

Xi Mo touched his lips a few times, and finally said dejectedly, "Master doesn't want me anymore."

"If you want to come with me..." Jiang Tan hesitated, "It's also possible."

Xi Mo felt a little relieved, but clenched his fingers even tighter, "Where is Master going?"

Jiang Tan thought for a while, then said softly, "Let's go to the south first."

"Has Master ever been to Yongzhou?"

"...been there."

"That's not like me." Xi Mo laughed, "First go to Yangzhou for a walk, then go to Zhongnan Mountain for a walk, and finally go back to Ruoshui to rest."

He thought, first take Jiang Tan to find his mother, then pay a visit to Mr. Cao, and finally go back to his hometown to have a look.

It would be even better if he could finally settle down with the three of them.

...Although the only one that can be held in hand now is Jiangtan.

Jiang Tan turned around and said, "It depends on the situation."

His belt was held in Xi Mo's hand, "Master likes my cooking so much, if he doesn't come with me, he won't be able to eat it anymore."

Jiang Tan nodded, "It's nothing, I'm not picky."

Xi Mo was completely dumbfounded, and said after a while, "Why did the master say that? The food from other places is not as delicious as his own apprentice."

Jiang Tan continued on his way, "Xi Mo, I don't recognize you because I want you to cook."

A chuckle came from behind, "But apart from cooking, is there any use for me for Master?"

This sentence sounds extremely sad.

Jiang Tanwan never expected that the child would say such words.

He turned his head slightly, and saw that Xi Mo's eyes were full of panic, "And Master treats me like this, does he still have any affection?"

"You know I'm on the main peak, and you don't even say hello or worry, so the news is completely cut off." A smile slowly appeared on Xi Mo's face, and a teardrop was about to fall from the corner of his crimson eyes, "I I'm still waiting for your sword manual. From economy, to knowledge, to Fengya Island, but I can't wait any longer."

"That's right," the young man stared straight at him, his eyes were hot and sad, "after that, you ignored me again, and you know how much courage I mustered up to come back this time?"

When the wind blows, the tear that rolls down the cheek is about to freeze.

"Master, you don't want me, so just say it straight." The child let go of his belt and put his hands behind his back as he said that, his tears became clearer and his smile brighter, "Even if I am wronged to death, I will suffer." live."

Jiang Tan stood there, a little stunned.He frowned slightly as if he was remembering something, let the little apprentice opposite him feel sad for a while, finally remembered, and said cautiously, "Tears are wealth... they are pearls. If you cry too much, you will become poor."

Xi Mo was stunned, almost failed, paused, and then smiled through tears, "Master, you...you really know how to comfort people."

He sniffled and softened his voice, "Tu'er is happy now."

"Xi Mo." Jiang Tan said, "Since I have accepted you as my apprentice, there is no reason not to want you."

"But...we didn't salute." Xi Mo said anxiously, "Master gave me a lot of things. But Master didn't take anything from me, so I can't feel at ease."

"Accepted." Jiang Tan reminded, "Long Tong."

Xi Mo's long eyelashes blinked lightly, a little hope rose in his eyes, and he repeated with a smile, "Then Master, we are one by one, does that mean we are in pairs?"

Jiang Tan seemed to understand why he was so persistent just now, although he felt that his words seemed inappropriate, he still nodded and said, "Yes."

Xi Mo's eyes were smiling like crescent moons, and his voice became a little sweeter, "I remember what Master said."

As he said, he threw the Qianqiu Sword into the air, "Let's go, I will take Master home."

Carrying Jiang Tan and straw baskets from the kitchen to the cave, Xi Mo eagerly said, "This winter's wintersweet is blooming well. I'll make a plum blossom feast for Master."

Jiang Tan watched him take out a white sandalwood box from the basket.As soon as it was opened, the cold and rich fragrance rolled up to the nose along with the flying snow outside.

"good smell."

"It's also very beautiful." Xi Mo bit off one glove, twirled a flower and handed it to Jiang Tan's lips with a smile, "This plum blossom is also called a golden bell, and despite the wind and rain, it still does not change its beauty. Its aroma...Master, taste it."

Jiang Tan held a bit of golden honey on his lips, he flexed his fingers to give it away, squeezed the pistil and knuckles together, pressed it to his lips and chewed it quietly, accepted it calmly, nodded and said "OK".

He saw the child staring at him intently, his face was still lightly dizzy, but he seemed to be blushing a bit, and after a while he said, "Is the white camellia I put down earlier, Master ate it like this?"

"Ah."

"...It looks really delicious." Xi Mo smiled unconsciously, groping with his fingers in the box, and handed over two more flowers, "Master, if you like it, eat more. I'll put it in the dish in a while." , but I can’t eat anymore.”

Jiang Tan sipped all the wax plums in his hand, but felt that the young man's expression was even more strange, he paused, and couldn't help saying, "You eat too."

Xi Mo sighed, "I like it so much, I can't bear to eat it."

Turning away while talking, "Master, do you want to wait and watch me cook, or go up and rest?"

This child is really not quite right today, every sentence has a sharp edge hidden in the open and in the dark.Jiang Tan didn't understand what charades he was playing, but felt that there must be something strange about his uncertainties.

He just sat down and observed his little apprentice secretly.

Xi Mo wore a loincloth around his waist, and got busy without looking at Jiang Tan.For a while, I chopped off my fingers and groaned again and again, for a while, I turned over the box and was stunned, for a while, I splashed the salt shaker in disbelief, and for a while, I smashed the cutting board to gasp for air.

Finally, he stood there for a moment, turned around, gritted his teeth and said with a smile, "Master, you should go up and sit down. Your eyes are so bright that this disciple's heart is confused."

Jiang Tan was caught off guard by taking a mouthful of the flying cauldron, but he only nodded.Before he got up and took two steps, he heard Xi Mo throw away the spoon in disgust, "I can't cook, Master really doesn't want me anymore."

Jiang Tan paused, feeling that what he said under the tree just now was all in vain.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw the child leaning against the stove, burying his head in his arms in a sluggish way, shrugging his shoulders, as if he was sobbing silently.

He didn't go over, looked at people from such a distance for a moment, and only said softly, "Xi Mo, come here."

He said, "I'll tie your hair for you."

He really can't pull his hair.Because I usually loose it or tie it loosely with a hair band, I don't even have a hair crown, let alone a hairpin for wrapping it in a bun.

But that didn't bother him.After removing Xi Moshuang's headband, he thought about it carefully, stretched his right palm, and then buried his fingers into the boy's long hair.

The child's hair is thin and soft, like a handful of black silk, it's okay to touch, but it's as slippery as ice when held in the hand, and it takes a lot of effort to tie it up.

He stroked Xi Mo's scalp a few times, and felt that the hair was smooth and did not need to be combed again.He looked in the bronze mirror again, but saw that the young apprentice had a snow-white face, he didn't even dare to raise his head, and he was about to stick himself on the table, with the tips of his red-hot ears trembling in his hair, calling again I don't care, I just hum.

Jiang Tan suddenly realized that it was so.

As usual, he followed the little apprentice's hair and stroked it carefully.

Xi Mo slowly curled up into a ball of ripe red shrimp under Liang Yu's palm, looking dead to death.

He seemed to have exhausted the greatest effort in his life, and he said, "...Master, I will do it myself."

His tone was as obedient as before, without any hint of disobedience.

Jiang Tan said "no need" and still patted his head reassuringly.

Xi Mo was so comfortable and ashamed.It was as if boiling water gushed out of Jiang Tan's hands, scalding his body and mind, tearing his flesh and tearing him apart, and killing him in ashes.

In the bliss of pain, he trembled and shed a line of tears.

After crying, his mind seemed clear again, and then he struggled to sit up, but he was a little flustered, and accidentally fell into Jiang Tan's arms.

Chunmei boiled snow probably has such a refreshing taste.

Because of too much momentum, the two of them leaned on the ground together with the bamboo stool.

"Master." Xi Mo stayed on Jiang Tan's knees, his eyes were half-hidden, "I'm really going to die...can you save me?"

"Ah."

Hearing this, he laughed lightly, but finally said in a low voice, "Don't save it, it's hopeless."

Taking a deep breath, hiding the piercing smell in his nostrils, Xi Mo finally opened his eyes, and asked without beginning or end, "Master, is that flower delicious?"

Jiang Tan knew what he was talking about, "It's delicious."

"Then I won't cook, I'll leave it to you." Xi Mo sighed, crawled out of the man's arms with disheveled hair, very neatly took out a silver hairpin with shark beads embedded in the tail, and tied his hair up.

Jiang Tan adjusted the hem of his robe, watched Xi Mo tidy up the desk and stool, and then smiled at himself, "Master, it's getting late, and I'm leaving. Before I leave, I want to ask a question."

Jiang Tan nodded slightly, "Ask."

"I read a poem in Jianzhu Cave, which said: Life should come back, death should be lovesickness." In the cave that was gradually dimming, Xi Mo's tear-stained face was reflected by the pearly light in his hair, Magnolia buds that seem to be stained with dew are precariously adorned on the branches.

He said word by word, "But after death, body and soul are separated, how can it be possible to still have long-term lovesickness?"

Jiang Tan felt that his pupils were scorchingly bright, thought for a while, and then said, "Because love can transcend all restrictions. Regardless of life or death."

"Is everything restricted?"

"Ah."

"Has Master ever had such affection?"

"No."

"Shall I give it to Master?"

"No need."

"..." Xi Mo paused for a moment, and his smile deepened, "Master despises me again."

Jiang Tan only said, "Xi Mo, this love is very precious, and it may only be given to one person in a lifetime."

He thought for a while, "You will know when you grow up."

"...I see." Xi Mo nodded, "What about Master's love? Will you give it to someone in the future?"

"……maybe."

"Can't you give it to me?"

"...It's different." Jiang Tan pondered for a moment, "Xi Mo, this is different for your love."

"But," Xi Mo said embarrassedly, "I also want to have a love that can transcend life and death."

There was even more longing in his eyes, "It sounds very powerful."

"You will have it." Jiang Tan said.

"Then I... have accepted Master's auspicious words."

Xi Mo bid farewell to Jiangtan, sat on the Qianqiu sword, and secretly covered his heart in the dusty sky.

Why does it hurt so much?

When I can't find my mother, I just feel lost, and I don't feel this kind of pain.

It was as if a bag of grass seeds had been hidden in his heart, and now it felt as if it had been hit by a spring breeze or spring water, and the vines grew like crazy.

The grass grew to his throat, blocking his lungs and making him unable to speak.After a while, another line of tears came.

No, he thought, this is not right.

His boxing heart was going to be crushed.He couldn't breathe, he breathed heavily, like a fish thrown off the shore, and he couldn't get any life-saving air from his gills in vain.

No, he said, no.

He even felt a little wronged, thinking how could I fall in love with someone like you?

How could you not fall in love with such a person sincerely the first time you saw him.

Suddenly, Xi Mo understood Qu Ju's heart a little bit.

No matter men or women, love them.

How could there be such a love in the world.

Pure, fiery, firm.

Burning bones and blood, people have nowhere to hide.
