Suifang

On the country road, the young man in light blue clothes sat dejectedly in a simple tea shed, holding a bowl of coarse tea, and murmured:

"But I escaped..."

But looking at him in a trance, he is not happy.

The warm-hearted boss finished wiping the table, sat on the stool, and said, "If there is anything bothering you, tell me! I will give you advice!"

Futan didn't want to pay attention to it, but he was really sad in his heart, so he humbly asked for advice: "I once had a promise to die with a very good man, and then I got seriously ill, he died trying to save me, and I survived by luck. It doesn't matter, A few days ago, I met another vicious person who always beat and scolded me. I wanted to kill him! But our lives are tied together. When he died, I was gone. Just yesterday, I somehow ...to sleep with him, I—”

"—I am suffering from love! Brother, I understand!"

The tea boss looks at the rolling green hills in the distance, and seems to have a feeling, his eyes dimly recall the past:

"I think back then, when I was young, all the girls in a radius of ten miles thought about me day and night. At that time, I was also trapped by love. I didn't know which one to choose, so I was depressed and unhappy, and almost shaved my hair and became a monk. Find peace."

The corners of Fu Tan's lips twitched slightly, and said: "I really can't tell."

"Brother is thinking about it!"

The tea boss took a sip of rough tea, and suddenly he was full of pride: "Life is full of sorrows for decades, and one person is really lonely. The one who was promised by life and death is gone, and this bad one just makes up for it. If you can make do, just follow him."

"...But I don't like him."

"Liking is one thing, life is another matter. Besides, you said you didn't like it, but you took a water basin to look at your frowning face. If you really didn't like it, you would have run away! You are still here with your brother." moan and groan?!"

It's a mistake to blame Futan

Fu Tan also thought about running away, but he was too far away, and the unknown living creature in his body would scurry around anxiously, making him extremely uncomfortable.It was like a forked road not far away. He wanted to walk, but once he stepped out, the bones and flesh would be torn apart.

He had no choice but to commit himself to sitting in the simple tea shed, listening to the tea boss talking about the past with red faces:

"This world is a mess. Letting you be the proud son of heaven is worse than a wife and children on the bed, so that you can live a stable life. Don't watch people beat and scold you fiercely. You must know that beating is love or love. She beats you." You, it’s because I love you that I took the pains to push you, the little brother knows it’s good or bad. I guess that girl also likes you, or else she wouldn’t have given in to you yesterday.”

It was a mess indeed.Futan got a headache when he heard it.

"Brother, go back! You have been out for so long, she is so worried! My wife is also a knife-mouthed, unforgiving person. Once I was angry and ran away. On a rainy day, she looked for me everywhere with a big belly, oh I was almost hit by a wild child, and I'm afraid when I think about it."

The tea boss touched his chest with lingering fear, shook his head and sighed:

"I'm looking away! Don't be angry, it's not worth it. Only after coaxing the old woman can I live warmly."

"Why should I live with him?"

How can that frivolous, self-righteous, frivolous and naughty man compare to Xiao Mubai?But there is a mess in front of my eyes, and my mind is also confused.

But the tea boss is right, you have to "look", you can't be angry, otherwise you will have a bad life.

Fu Tan took out a few copper plates and put them on the table, said: "Brother Xie, I figured it out, I'll go back now."

……

Back in the town, guided by Gu worms, he quickly found Fu Lian who was leisurely wandering in the street.

——Fu Lian looked in a good mood, with a happy face and a bright smile. He changed into a brand-new blue robe, and walked forward with his hands behind his back.

This, this is clearly a liberated, carefree appearance! !

Futan held a breath in his heart and couldn't swallow it no matter what.He followed suspiciously, and saw Fu Lian stopped in front of the nut stall, teasing the little girl with a smile:

"These peanuts are pretty good. They weigh half a catty, and the walnuts also come in half a catty."

The little girl's face is very ordinary, except for a pair of eyes that are light and transparent, and the pupils are full of innocence and ignorance of the world.She held her cheeks in both hands, her cheeks were flushed with peach petals, and a slightly dark child beside her shouted excitedly:

"Sister, the windmill he built can spin faster than yours, and the kite can fly higher!"

Fu Lian showed his white teeth with a smile: "No, no, no! Young lady is ingenious, I can't compare to it."

The little girl blushed and said angrily, "I want you to talk nonsense!"

"I'm not talking nonsense! I can do the rough work, and the delicate work of sewing is still a girl's skill."

Fu Lian pointed to the hole in his sleeve, and said: "I'm down, Fu Lian, I've been traveling alone for many years, and now I'm tired, I want to find a place to take root, what do you think of this town?"

The little girl blushed and replied softly, "...very, very good."

The child clapped his hands and jumped up, and said loudly, "Do you want to live here? There is an open space behind my yard. Can I circle it around and build a house for you?"

“Excellent excellent!”

I saw Fu Lian's eyes glowing, he happily took out some pieces of silver from his sleeve, and gave it all to the little girl.

Fu Tan couldn't figure out what Fu Lian was thinking, at night, when the siblings packed up the stall and went home, they were blocked on the way.He carefully looked at the little girl's face, it was indeed somewhat similar to Shen Zhuang, and the desire for revenge suddenly rose in his heart.

The little girl accused angrily: "Why are you blocking our way?"

"...I really don't understand why he smiles so happily at you, but always treats me with a vicious look."

Fu Tan thought, now he lives and dies with Fu Lian, he can't kill Fu Lian, on the contrary, Fu Lian can't kill him either.

The flowing water condensed in his hand, and when he was thinking about how to scratch the little girl's face, a gust of wind suddenly came from behind him.

The moment Futan turned his head back, only a flying black boot was reflected in his sight, and then he felt severe pain in his chest, and he flew out like a broken paper kite.

little girl screaming

"Shh!"

But Fu Lian rolled his eyes with a smile, and said: "I haven't trained | this dog well, you stay away, it will be bad if he bites you."

Turning back to look at Fu Tan, his eyes instantly condensed with frost.

Futan's heart skipped a beat, and the next moment he got up and wanted to run, but after running a few steps, he thought again: Why am I running away?

Why am I afraid of him?

Fu Lian walked over lazily with his hands behind his hands, and said, "Waste dog, although I can't kill you, it's still okay to cut off an arm and a leg."

Futan sneered: "Just give it a try if you have the ability—"

--"Snapped"! !Another slap across the face.

"you--"

Before he could make a sound, another slap came down, loud and crisp.

Fu Tan was furious, and was about to fight back, when suddenly Fu Lian clenched his hand into a fist and hit his soft abdomen, causing him to bend down in pain.

Fu Lian shyly withdrew his hand, frowned, and said very puzzled: "How can such a benevolent and righteous hero as Master Fu give birth to a son like you?!"

"—Who wants to be his son!"

"Gentle and virtuous Shen Zi, you haven't learned anything from her."

"What are you doing with me!"

"Fu Sui has a heart to help the world, and treats you very well. No matter how bad it is, Xiao Mubai, a gentleman and straightforward, can't find fault in everything. How come he fell in love with something like you?"

Fu Lian looked at Fu Tan sneeringly, his eyes were contemptuous and disdainful: "You are very lucky, the Shen Zi, Fu Sui, and Xiao Mubai you met all treated you well. Although Master Fu treated you badly, but before he died It’s still you who will never forget.”

Futan's lips trembled suddenly, in the fleeting light, the blood on his forehead was desolate and glamorous.

"They all treat you wholeheartedly, but you have never treated anyone with affection, so you lose your loved ones, and you get nothing. But, even so, Xiao Mubai left his heart and soul, and Master Fu won me Your promise, you—Futan, from now on, even if I am not willing, I will follow you day and night.”

After finishing speaking, Fu Lian sighed faintly, with an unspeakably lonely expression on his face.

At this moment, Fu Tan was flustered and confused, his mind was empty.There was a sudden throbbing pain at the tip of the soft heart, and the strange feeling seemed to be the pain spreading into the bone, the flesh shuddered, and the fingers trembled lightly.

The next moment, he shouted in a panic:

"You can't compare to Xiao Mubai——!"

"Yes, I am not as good as him. The living are not as good as the dead."

Fu Lian's eyes fell on the children frolicking with windmills on the street, and he said softly:

"So cute……"

Immediately be vigilant!He asked cautiously: "Do you like children?"

"Yes!"

Fu Lian admitted frankly, "I've even chosen a name, but unfortunately, I can't find a girl I like."

This time, Futan panicked, Qiqi Aiai said: "You have to watch me..."

Fu Lian was melancholy: "What evil did I do!"

"you you……"

He wants to ask Fu Lian what kind of woman he likes, but...he thinks it's wrong, what Fu Lian likes has nothing to do with him!

"Let's go with the fate, maybe there is another chance."

Fu Lian turned to leave, his back straight and straight, he would rather bend than bend.

Futan hesitated for a moment, but when he saw that the figure was going away without turning back, without any attachment, as if he was going to abandon him, he couldn't bear it, he took a step and chased after him.

At this time, the light gauze enveloped half of the crescent moon, which was hazy and misty, and drew the two figures very close, entangled and inseparable.

……

One day, Fu Lian molested the little girl, and when Fu Tan was about to make trouble, he heard the well-informed tea owner say:

"There is a Miao village hidden in that mountain, and there are Gu worms that live and die together in the village."

Futan listened bored

"That Gu worm is very rare. According to legend, a man who eats it can...be pregnant for ten months and give birth to a child."

--"puff!!"

Fu Lian took a sip of tea

Fu Tan looked at Fu Lian's stomach in awe, nervously: "Really, really?!"

"Well, it's a 'legend', who knows if it's true or not."
