Yan ghost

With dolls in the world, the meaning of death is completely different.The first death is the scariest, after that you can no longer be a human being.It doesn't matter if you die later.It's just that the way of death is different and the pain is different, so some people think that it is not death.

Shi Ting's first death, he didn't even know about it, and it was carefully covered up for many years.

That night, Shiting had a high fever, conscious or unconscious.When he opened his eyes and looked at things, he realized that his whole body was wrapped in gauze, and he couldn't see a piece of skin.He couldn't control a finger with all his strength, he could only make a sound.He couldn't see anything but the top of the bed.He judged from the bed curtain that he was on Xiang Yan's bed, so he called Xiang Yan.

Xiang Yan, who was dozing by the bed, woke up with a start and hid the things in his hands.He knelt on the ground for too long, managed to stand still, and said: "You... have suffered a serious injury, your body is covered with gauze, and you need to wrap it with gauze." Take care of your health.

"I remember it wasn't a burn."

"It's my wording that wasn't right." The words were respectful, as if deliberately trying to downplay the fact that the two of them knew each other well.

Shi Ting pretended to blame: "You didn't find a doctor, you treated me yourself."

"It's not me!" Xiang Yan whispered, "It's the genius doctor I met during my travels. Kunwu has broken tendons and bones, and there is no cure for it without a genius doctor."

Shi Ting glanced away, and asked Xiang Yan who was standing on the head of the bed, "What are you holding in your hand?"

"It's nothing."

"Ok?"

He presented the carpenter's knife to Yan and said, "The bone is broken, and the genius doctor told me to cut wood to fix the limb. Your Highness can't move for a while."

"I've already changed my name to Your Highness. Then should I change my name too?" Shi Ting pondered for a while and asked, "Yan'er?"

"Huh?" Xiang Yan had an embarrassed look on his face, if he hadn't just found out Shi Ting's identity, it wouldn't be the only reaction. "Why does Your Highness call me Yan Qing..."

"That's not the same as Yunyu." He also stayed in the palace in the early years, and knew that the two were on good terms.Xiang Yan was called by the emperor Yan Qing to come to Yan Qing from the beginning of reading.He wants something different.

"Your Highness can also call Xiang Yan directly."

"Yan'er."

"Ahhh—no more..." Xiang Yan squatted on the ground with his head in his arms.

"Then think for yourself." Shi Ting didn't care.Xiang Yan didn't come up with a name for a long time, and raised his hand as if worshiping Buddha, begging for mercy.Shi Ting said again: "Then what do your wooden armors call you?"

"Young Master, Young Master, Eldest Young Master..."

"Do you think I'm your servant?"

"Master Xiang, Master Xiang, Master..."

"Hahaha Master, this is interesting." Shi Ting wanted to clap his hands.

"no!"

"Then Yan'er and the master, do you choose one?"

Xiang Yan sat on the ground dejectedly, and surrendered in a low voice: "Yan'er..."

"It's so annoying to be called master by me. I'm condescending." Xiang Yan didn't answer him.

"By the way, have you seen a moyu belt hook?"

Xiang Yan answered "No" calmly, without even thinking about it.

Shi Ting sighed, "Why is it gone?" He bought it specially for him as a gift, and he bribed Yu with a seven-star inkstone to help pick it out.At that time, Xiang Yu swore to him: My brother usually wears either black or white. This black jade belt hook is eye-catching with a white shirt, and the black robe is tall. Don't worry, he must wear it around his waist every day.

Unexpectedly, when he asked about the hook, Xiang Yan got up and said, "It's getting late, you should go to bed first."

Shi Ting said: "It's so late..." But he heard "Good night, Your Highness".Shi Ting guessed that he wanted to make wooden armor again, so he didn't pester him, but then he spit out the word "good night", and fell asleep immediately, before he had time to say the salutation he had just promised.

After lying in bed for several days, Shi Ting was able to sit up and do some simple movements.He felt no pain, just a little discomfort.But Xiang Yan insisted on feeding him some porridge instead of letting him do it himself, presumably because he was afraid that he would break the brim red porcelain bowl he made himself.Feed the porridge to Yan carefully, like treating a child under one year old, half a spoonful at a time, it must be blown cold and served.But the spoon is still quite accurate, so don't worry about sticking your lips and dirtying your face.If it wasn't for such care, he wouldn't drink the porridge, he didn't have any appetite after the injury.

"Why do I have no taste in food?"

Xiang Yanzheng yawned, paused in vain, and said, "Your Highness hasn't recovered yet, so I'll make it easy for you." He always looked like he didn't sleep well recently, and he stayed up all night again.

"It's too bland, I can't even taste the rice. Who made it, is it Jingqi? He just doesn't like me."

Xiang Yan shook his head, saying that he never ordered his students around.After eating, he said that the gauze on his face could be removed today, and Shi Ting marveled at his rapid recovery.The gauze was removed, and the mirror was handed to Shi Ting to Yan Yan.

"It's strange, I look more and more beautiful, this skin." When Shi Ting finished admiring the left face and admiring the right face, Xiang Yan didn't know why he was so nervous, he couldn't even hold the mirror steadily.

"I think it's the same, His Highness is narcissistic."

"It's nice to not have a scar on my face. I thought I was going to be a zebra now."

Thinking of that day, Xiang Yan felt sad, and murmured: "I told you that a miracle doctor can cure you."

"Let me see the divine doctor anytime, and thank you for saving my life."

"The miracle doctor's whereabouts are uncertain, it depends on fate in the future."

Shi Ting smiled and said, "Thank you for carrying me back that day."

"How do you know! I thought you passed out..." He whispered again: "It's nothing to carry you."

At the Shangyuan Temple Fair that night, floats parade, wooden armor dances and dances, and thousands of lanterns hang in the air.They met in front of Langhuan's blessed land.

Xiang Yan came with Mujia and students from his family, but he couldn't escape for a long time.Shi Ting watches alone.This blessed place of Langhuan is a lantern with a height of three or four people, which is shaped like a wood carving of mountains and rivers, but it is actually a scene mechanism.There are wild cranes in the rapids in the mountains, fairies lead the way, and idiots steal books.There are hundreds of scenery, all of which can be moved, and the whimsical ideas are unforgettable.

At this time, at the beginning of the popularity of Chilan Mujia, the whole city of Yanshi created for temple fairs, and the people were looking forward to it.In addition to this, Xiang Yan's Qiuchi lantern has also attracted much attention.In the night sky, horned dragons and chilongs chase each other, dancing with wavy lines, and whichever one catches up to the other makes a bang and spews out fireworks.It is said that at the end of the festival, there will be surprises.

Suddenly someone patted Shi Ting on the shoulder.He turned his head and saw Xiang Yan Chui with a shawl and a sky blue after rain, completely different from usual.The music was loud, Shi Ting bowed his head and talked to him, ear to ear.

There were too many people following the float, the two of them couldn't get in the front row, and Xiang Yan wasn't tall enough to see anything.Speaking of which, the two are about the same age, but Shi Ting grew up earlier, at that time he was two heads taller than Xiang Yan.But after that, Xiang Yan was still growing, but Shi Ting didn't change again, until later he was almost overtaken by Xiang Yan.

Shi Ting suggested to go to the next point to occupy a seat first, and lead Yan Heng across the float.In the deep alley, he waved his hand to Yan, Shi Ting said that if there are too many people, he will get lost, and if there are too many people, he will not see him, so he said no to Yan.Shi Ting took out the Moyu belt hook and weighed it in his hand, he knew that this person was thin-skinned, and wanted to take this opportunity to stuff it into his hand, since he refused, then don't blame him for giving the gift in person.

At this time, the street exploded behind him, and Xiang Yan was knocked down on Shi Ting.The two turned their heads, and a giant jade rabbit walked by outside the alley.The sound of the music turned sharply, and the more it played, the weirder it became, and the parade wooden armor swayed wildly.The people were frightened, crowded to the side of the road, and rushed into the alley.When they returned to the main street, they saw the sky full of low-floating lanterns burning one after another.In addition to the jade rabbit, there are five or six wooden armors that have become gigantic.They began not to follow the team, and trampled on people and buildings everywhere.

Xiangyan ordered the wooden armors to stop the giant wooden armors separately.Once those wooden armors were attacked, they actually absorbed the resentment in the float team and grew even bigger.Seeing that a strong attack is useless, they plan to find someone behind the scenes.The float team has the most grievances, and the envoys must be nearby.While running, the two observed passers-by and the roof, and saw a puppet stage in the float, which was too normal in the riots.Qiongqi, the wooden armor that Xiang Yan sent with him, stepped forward, and the puppets immediately attacked.The canopy of the stage flew up, and the puppeteer appeared.

Shi Ting jumps on the float and joins Qiong Qi in dealing with the puppet master.Xiang Yan found that the puppets jumped onto the roofs on both sides one by one.The parade was still moving forward, and the puppet master suddenly fell from the Taichung mechanism. The next moment, Qiongqi on the stage was cut into several sections, and the cut was smooth.Shout to Yan Shiting to evacuate.When Shi Ting turned his head, he saw dozens of blood-stained strings looming.He kicked off the stage and quickly backed away.Two rows of puppets ran at top speed on the roof, and caught Shi Ting with a net.

The strings are embedded in the flesh, like moths on a spider's web, unable to break free.Xiang Yan jumped on the float and took out the string scissors, but Kunwu's silk was so tough that it couldn't be cut continuously.Two rows of puppets stepped on other parade wooden armors and jumped to the opposite roof.The strings were gathered, seeing that Xiang Yan was about to be caught, Shi Ting hugged him and blocked all the strings.The screams of passers-by were drowned out by the music.Xiang Yan dared not move in Shi Ting's arms.As soon as you move, your clothes get wetter.The puppet master stood by the side of the road, smiling as he watched the floats parade the people on both sides with bloody bodies.

Drums and gongs sounded, and the ceremony ended.Together with the common people, the two looked at the undriven Qiu Chi Lantern high in the sky.The horned dragon and chilong split into small dragons, four in one round, eight in two rounds, and sixteen in three rounds, and flew towards the sky.A loud noise turned into gorgeous fireworks.Shi Ting asked, why there are only fifteen fireworks.The string was loosened, and he finally took a breath, leaning on Xiang Yan's shoulder, accidentally wiping away tears.Xiang Yan shook him, but he couldn't wake up.

The puppet master on the side of the road fell in a pool of blood.Some people said that they saw a small dragon being possessed, and flew down to blow up the puppet master.

After a long time, Shi Ting vaguely became conscious, but the consciousness did not come back.He knew that Xiang Yan was carrying him on his back, carrying his body like someone had cut it with a flower knife, and walked through the temple fair where the music ended.His mask is gone.The string was cut off before and fell off.

Shi Ting asked: "My mask fell off, what was your first reaction?"

In the past, Xiang Yan only thought of him as a wealthy son who loved night walks and had mediocre martial arts, so he sighed: "It's over."

Shi Ting asked: "It's over, I'm afraid you won't live long if you let Tianhuang nobles take your life?" Xiang Yan shook his head.

Shi Ting asked: "It's over, have you been with King Huai for a year, will you offend the emperor?" Xiang Yan shook his head again.

Xiang Yan said: "It's over, everyone said that His Highness King Huai is difficult to deal with, how can I pay back such favors in the future."

That night, Shi Ting was extremely unwell. He guessed that he had a fever, but his body was very heavy and he couldn't confirm it.In the chaos, he heard Xiang Yan coming.Xiang Yan began to check his body, his movements were as gentle as a breeze.

"Yan'er..."

"Huh? Don't change your words suddenly." Xiang Yan backed away shyly, it was obvious that Shi Ting approached him proactively.

"You clearly promised to let me call you that..."

"I do not have."

"Yan'er cheating..."

"Ahhh - no, I really can't stand this. Please Your Highness." Xiang Yan knelt on the ground, drooping his head.

"That's your master?" Shi Ting turned his head to look at him, but couldn't. He thought he was going to recover soon.

"Don't you call me Xiang Yan?"

"That's calling you in front of people, so I'll call you master in private."

"All right……"

"I didn't even want to die before."

"Before?" Xiang Yan buried his face and smiled wryly.

"What's going on outside..." Shi Ting heard someone yelling outside, as well as the sound of chiseling wood.

"Fix the house, don't worry."

"Aren't you in a hurry to urge me to sleep? Are you always waiting for me to go to sleep, secretly making wooden armor..."

In fact, it wasn't the wooden armor, it was his body.But Shi Ting didn't intend to make it clear, so that he could have preferential treatment that other dolls didn't have.Besides, now, he doesn't blame him for hiding it.

"I won't do it today, I'll wait until His Highness falls asleep before leaving." Shi Ting didn't know that besides being young and shy, this person could also be gentle and affectionate.

"Then you lie down next to me and wait, I'm not sleepy..."

"please do not."

"What are you afraid of, I can't move... I should be afraid of you..." Shi Ting's eyes sank, and he couldn't even see anything.Fear struck, at this moment it was strings piercing the bone, and the next moment it was cutting the beak and dismembering the body. He cut his stomach and skinned and saw that he was hiding black jade, so he rode back to Beijing to see the man whose head was hanging over the city gate.

As soon as the bed curtain fell, Xiang Yan lay down.

"The soul is healing, Your Highness will persevere!"

"I really regretted not being able to protect His Highness.

I have been thinking why His Highness can protect me, but I cannot protect His Highness.

Later I realized that I never only looked at the things I cared about, not the people around me.I'm not capable, I'm not trying my best, I can't change, I'm not worthy..."
