dragon pen

At this moment, outside the dream.

The rainy season in the desert is longer than imagined. It is hard to imagine that there is such a wet day in the desert. The rain outside the window makes a pattering sound on the eaves-winter is coming after late autumn. The wind was damp and cold, and the people in the house had to set up braziers to keep themselves warm, but in order to prevent being suffocated, they had to open the windows to let in the wind.

A vicious cycle with no cure.

"These mortals," the man said while lazily sitting on the edge of the bed, smacking his lips, "are so fragile."

As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced thoughtfully, following his gaze, a black-haired boy was lying on the bed behind the tall man—at this moment, his eyes were lightly closed, breathing Evenly long and rosy complexion, the corners of his lips are sometimes slightly raised, and sometimes his brows are slightly frowned in annoyance, as if he is having a dream with rich content... A gilt pen is placed beside his pillow, which seems to be right. It is a very important object for the boy, but he can't guess whether the dream of the boy at this moment is related to this pen...

——Zhang Ziyao has been in a deep sleep for more than half a decade since peeking at the past and present basin from the front hall of Yuzao.

In these ten days, he never woke up once.

He doesn't eat or drink, but his complexion is so ruddy that he doesn't look like someone who hasn't eaten for ten days.

No one knows when he will wake up.

The most annoying thing is that Zhu Jiuyin doesn't know what to do now other than just sit on the bed and wait stupidly. There are so many babies in the world, and he doesn't know the correct way to play with each of them. After so many years, he can play with these broken things safely. The only rule of the game is "My life is more valuable than anything else, so never try to defy the law"... But this is just Zhu Jiuyin's personal code of conduct, and he didn't even have time to instill this concept into Zhang Ziyao——

That night.

At that time, Zhu Jiuyin stepped into the front hall of Yuzao, and found that he had lost Zhang Ziyao - obviously it was just the front and rear feet - so Zhu Jiuyin used his feet to guess that there must be something tricky in the palace, and hit While getting 12 full of energy, I also decided not to reason with the owner of this palace because she is a woman——

Zhu Jiuyin blocked and killed the gods all the way, and the Buddha blocked and killed the Buddha. Before he reached the palace, he started banging and kicking the door.

I don't know what kind of forbidden spell was cast on that door, and I didn't kick it open for a while. At first, Su Lian wanted to stop Zhu Jiuyin from acting like this.But after a long time, he also began to worry about Zhang Ziyao, so the dissuading voice gradually disappeared——

...Finally, Su Lian also joined the ranks of kicking the door.

There is nothing in the world that can stop Master Zhu Jiuyin.If there is, then add another god of disaster.

However, when they kicked open the front hall of Yuzao, they found that it was too late. The big basin in the center of the palace exuding a strange fragrance was overturned, and the black-haired boy was lying wet in the pool of water, and as the culprit The fox demon looked surprised, and squatted next to the young man to look at it. After hearing the loud noise behind her, she stood up and gave the duo who broke in the door a huge "surprise": after the young man touched the basin of past and present lives, it was like this. As for why, she didn't know, because no one else would react like this.

——She messed up people, and then said with an innocent face that she didn't know why.

Zhu Jiuyin felt that he had worked so hard to break in and didn't want to listen to such infuriating nonsense. At that time, he stepped forward steadily and picked up the boy on the ground, and threw Su Lian a look with a dark face— —Fortunately, if one had to find someone who was more angry than Zhu Jiuyin at this time, it would probably be a certain cow raised by the young man who was being embraced by Zhu Jiuyin at that time.

So after that night, the Hundred Ghosts of Yunqi Kingdom got a shocking news that Yuzao's former empress's past and present basin was robbed by someone - not only that - the person who robbed the basin also demolished Yuzaoqian palace.

The palace of Yuzaoqian has since disappeared from this world, and the whereabouts of the empress of Yuzaoqian are also unknown.

It's just a rumor that someone saw Lord Zhuyin and Lord Fujinshen coming out of the palace at the end. Lord Zhuyin seemed to be holding a young boy in his arms, because it was too far away, and that person didn't see whether the boy was dead or not. He only saw that the second the two adults stepped out of the front hall of Yuzao, the magnificent palace collapsed in an instant, and finally turned into illusory loess, disappearing without a trace in the blue will-o'-the-wisp... …

After leaving the front hall of Yuzao, Zhu Jiuyin brought Zhang Ziyao back to Yunqi Kingdom's palace. Unexpectedly, that fake monk didn't know anything about the past life and this life, but promised that if Zhang Ziyao woke up, he would Immediately help him pull out the filth.

"..."

There is a fart.

"...If you fall asleep like this and don't eat or drink, you will die before you get rid of his filth."

At this moment, sitting on the edge of the bed, the man looked at the sleeping boy, couldn't help reaching out and pinching his face - the fair face was pinched and deformed by two fingers, the boy in the dream hummed Two sentences, but still did not wake up.

The rain outside made Zhu Jiuyin a little restless.

Zhu Jiuyin was silent for a moment, and calculated that this was the No. 14 day since Zhang Ziyao fell asleep. Seeing that the person in front of him showed no signs of waking up, Zhu Jiuyin knew that there were tens of thousands of unreliable people at this time , asking others is better than asking yourself——

So he stood up.Pushing open the window, he called out to the young man sitting quietly with arms folded in the corridor outside.

Yes, boy.

Compared with the seven or eight-year-old child when we first met, Su Lian has grown up very fast recently, in Zhu Jiuyin's words, "like eating a big pig". During Zhang Ziyao's deep sleep, he changed from "little The boy" has become a "little boy". Maybe when Zhang Ziyao wakes up, he will be surprised to find that his "little son" has become a "little brother"——

...Hmph, of course he has to wake up.

"what happened?"

At this time, the young man changed his posture leaning against the railing, straightened his waist slightly, and asked the man with his golden pupil brightened, "Is he awake?"

"No." Zhu Jiuyin said with a gloomy face, "If you let him wake up like this, you don't know it will be a monkey year. You come in and look at him, and I will go to someone to ask."

"Who are you looking for?"

"The original owner of the broken footbath."

With a face full of disgust, he handed the tongs that were poking the brazier to Su Lian's stupid bull. Seeing the latter holding up the tongs with a look of confusion, Zhu Jiuyin rolled his eyes: "Turn over the pot in a while. It’s so cold that your nose is going to freeze.”

Su Lian let out an "oh", and clumsily poked the brazier, the red side of the charcoal fire was turned up, sparks flew around, and the chill in the room was slightly dispelled...

The dark-haired boy who was sleeping on the bed uttered vague dreams and turned over.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"I have a question for you."

"ask."

"That day, in the front hall of Yuzao, what did you see in front of Yuzao?" Su Lian asked, "I saw the woman who locked me in the box."

"Oh, no wonder the attack is so ruthless." Zhu Jiuyin said lazily.

Su Lian gave a "hmm" and asked again: "What about you?"

Zhu Jiuyin glanced at Zhang Ziyao, thought for a while and said, "I won't tell you."

Su Lian raised her eyebrows: "Actually, the reason why I ask this is because you are so ruthless and ungrateful, I am afraid that you have no concern or resentment in your heart, let alone someone who owes you a debt, so maybe you can really see that person?" The true appearance of the mysterious vixen..."

"what."

"Hey what?"

"That's still there." Zhu Jiuyin said with a smile, "People who owe money or something."

"It's strange to believe you."

"Really, so what I saw that day was not the true appearance of the vixen."

"what is that?"

"..." Zhu Jiuyin thought for a while, "It's nothing, just an ordinary little monk."

"Monk?"

Zhu Jiuyin lowered her eyes, said "um" and then ignored her.

"You don't even spare monks."

"No."

"Then how did you see a little monk—"

"I feel that I owe something, but..."

"?"

"I can't give what he wants, so I can only owe it." Zhu Jiuyin blinked, and the silence on his face suddenly faded, and he changed into the previous foolish look and smiled, "There is no way, If all the feelings in the world have to be responded to, I will not be exhausted—"

Then why did you only see such a young monk?

Su Lian looked at Zhu Jiuyin, but didn't ask for a word, so after the man finished speaking, the room fell silent again.

"Sleeping like a pig." Zhu Jiuyin couldn't help stretching out his hand to pinch the sleeping boy's face again, "Remember to wipe his saliva, he couldn't drink water in the first place, and it would accelerate the loss of water, which is not good."

Su Lian followed to look at it, and after looking at it for a while, pushed Zhu Jiu's vagina open with his shoulder: "Don't pinch his face."

"You try to stay here for two days. I want you not only to pinch his face, but maybe to pinch his neck to see him off."

"..."

"My lord is gone."

Zhu Jiuyin rolled her eyes, and then walked out of the room. The door of the room creaked open, but no one closed it. There were a few footsteps outside the room, followed by a gust of cold wind... Su Lian watched Looking at Zhang Ziyao, as if he was afraid that he would be frozen, he muttered "don't close the door" and stood up to close the door, but at this time, the figure of the man who had left the door had long since disappeared, and the door of the room was closed with a creaking sound , Shut out the sound of the rain hitting the eaves.

……

Zhu Jiuyin ran to the underworld, directly found Meng Po who was distributing Meng Po soup by the Naihe Bridge, grabbed her hand, and wanted to take her away without saying a word—Meng Po naturally refused: Why! Robbing women in broad daylight?!"

"I'm not interested in old women."

"Yes, yes, Master Zhu Jiuyin is not interested in anything, but he teases everyone in the world—oh, then why are you dragging my servant?"

Zhu Jiuyin dragged Po Meng's leaving figure for a while, then turned around and asked, "You once had a soup basin of Po Meng that was replaced fell into the mortal world, and was picked up by a nine-tailed fox demon. Basin, you can peek into the past and present of demons and ghosts or ordinary people..."

"What else?" Granny Meng's eyes widened innocently.

Zhu Jiuyin rolled his eyes again—he rolled his eyes a lot today, subverting his image of an elegant dragon: "Now my child can't wake up because of your broken pot, and I don't know what's going on. Go and see—"

"Is there anything else going on with my family?" Granny Meng pointed to the long queue, "A bunch of dead ghosts are waiting for my family."

Zhu Jiuyin looked at such a group of people and waited for nothing, so she folded her sleeves and stretched her neck with a "huh" sound. At this time, her narrow and narrow eyes accidentally caught sight of someone squatting beside the Naihe Bridge. Bai Wuchang who was drunk... Zhu Jiuyin let go of Granny Meng, came to Bai Wuchang and squatted down side by side: "My friend, are you in a bad mood?"

"Extremely good," Xie Bi'an said with a face as black as charcoal, drunkenly, "It's been so many years, I've finally got rid of that bastard...and broke up the gang. From now on, the bridge will return to the bridge, passing through the road—"

"Oh," Zhu Jiuyin nodded, "It hurts."

"Fart!" Xie Bi'an spat.

"When you're broken in love, you should work hard to enrich yourself. Squatting here and drinking too much wine is not the way..." Zhu Jiuyin narrowed her eyes slightly, "May I find you something to do?"

Xie Bi'an: "?"

After a brief cup of tea.

Master Bai Wuchang wore an apron around his waist, and holding a wooden spoon, Zhu Jiuyin pushed and coaxed him to the steaming Meng Po soup basin. Zhu Jiuyin told him: "One bowl for each person. No matter how much you don’t give, if you meet someone who doesn’t want to drink, you will treat him as old Fan Ji—oh, that’s the look in his eyes, the feelings are in place...Come here, fasten your apron, don’t stain your clothes, the white ones are not easy to wash... ..."

Madam Meng: "..."

With a dark face, Bai Wuchang was helplessly arrested and served as a temporary worker for distributing Meng Po's soup, while Meng Po was twisted and was taken to the mortal world by Zhu Jiuyin——Zhu Jiuyin even counted the time of coaxing Bai Wuchang in the underworld I didn't stay for more than an hour, but when I returned to the mortal world, two days had passed——

The cloud rises and the rain stops.

The mortal autumn has officially come to an end.

Zhang Ziyao is still awake.

Su Lian worked as a nurse for two days.

There is one more person in the room.

"What's wrong with our little fool?" Fuyao asked Zhu Jiuyin, twisting his waist, "Did you finally piss him off?"

"He didn't die even if you died, get up."

Zhu Jiuyin didn't have time to waste time with this snake demon, so she pushed her away, and brought Granny Meng into the house, warm breath rushed towards her face, Granny Meng, who was shivering from the cold along the way, stopped complaining and stretched her arms. Neck looked at the child who asked Zhu Jiuyin to run there himself——

When she saw the black-haired boy for the first time, there was a momentary look of surprise in her eyes, but soon, she lowered her eyes to hide this emotion, and turned her head to look at Zhu Jiuyin.

Zhu Jiuyin: "?"

Meng Po: "Who is this child?"

Zhu Jiuyin: "I picked it up halfway."

Meng Po: "The one I picked up halfway is so caring, yo, you have lived a long life, Master Zhu Jiuyin has changed his nature!"

Zhu Jiuyin frowned: "Can you stop talking nonsense and go find out what's going on with him. It's been like this for more than ten days since he touched your broken pot. He didn't eat or drink and died of thirst and starvation. Just kept sleeping and sleeping..."

Meng Po was stunned.Randomly smiled, and said "I'm so anxious", walked around Zhu Jiuyin and came to the bed, leaned over to look at the black-haired boy who was immersed in sleep, after a while, she straightened up, and said lightly: "It's okay, it's just that the child forgot to bring the vacancy when he was reincarnated. The moment he touched the memory of the previous life, he was filled and entangled. "

"What do you mean?"

"After a while, when he goes through the memories of that past life and reintegrates the things that have fallen into his body, he will naturally wake up." Granny Meng stretched out her hand and pressed the quilt for the boy. "Now he's just stopped in time, so it's okay even if he doesn't eat or drink, and he will return to normal after waking up."

"I don't understand what you're talking about," Zhu Jiuyin said as she rolled up her sleeves, "You think he can wake up?"

"Yes."

"Oh." Zhu Jiuyin showed a satisfied expression.

"The fun starts after waking up." Meng Po smiled, "Why do people drink Meng Po soup? Because they forget the troubles and debts of the previous life, so that they can go on the road clean and reincarnated. How can one person bear the burden of two lifetimes?" What about feelings?"

"What will happen?" Su Lian who had been silent all this time asked suddenly.

"I don't know," Granny Meng withdrew her hand from the boy's quilt and said with a smile, "I'm also looking forward to it."

The cold wind blows in from the slightly open window, mixed with a damp breath.

Outside the door, Fuyao murmured "It's really cold" and pushed the door in, and then told the silent people that it was snowing outside——

This is the first snow of the year.

It's winter.
