I see the snow
Chapter 46
When Mu Ziling arrived in Jiangzhou, it was the last two days of the sixteen days.
Qin Yi hasn't arrived yet, probably because he followed the stream that night and looked in the wrong direction.
He looked at the busy Jiangzhou, everything seemed to be the same as it was eight years ago.
The flowers are blooming like a brocade, and people are coming and going.
There are people selling apricot blossoms on the street, and some people are yelling, "Sweet tofu nao—"
Mu Ziling walked to the place where he had bought candied haws. The alley was still there, but there was no longer the peddler with a wooden stick in the bustling crowd.
"My lord, do you want to sweep Qing Niang?" [*Note 1]
Mu Ziling was standing by the side of the street. A child holding a small umbrella pulled his sleeve and asked him.
It has just rained, and there are still small puddles and small puddles on the ground that have not dried up.
There are many snow-white dolls hanging on the children's umbrellas, their eyebrows and eyes are drawn with immature handwriting, and they smile awkwardly at everyone.
Mu Ziling took out an ingot of silver taels from his bosom, and put it in the child's palm:
"I want one."
The child was very happy, and couldn't stop saying happily: "Thank you, young master, thank you, young master."
"Write the name of the person waiting in the snow cloth, and he will come before it rains next time!"
Seeing Mu Ziling's expression, the child laughed: "It's very clever."
Mu Ziling looked at him, the child was about six or seven years old, only a little higher than Mu Ziling's knees.
He couldn't help asking: "You are so young, won't your family worry about you when you come out?"
"My dad is sick."
The child smiled and said, "He used to sell candied haws here, but last year he suffered from back pain so badly that he couldn't come here. I'll sell Sweeping Girls to subsidize my mother's family."
Mu Ziling stared at him blankly, and suddenly felt a strange sense of going back in time.
Many years ago, when he was only eight or nine years old, he used to stand here, watching the alley with vigilance and curiosity.
He asked the sugar peddler, "how to get to West Lake".
But now that time has passed, he returns to Jiangzhou again, everything seems to be still here, and everything seems to have changed long ago.
He watched the child who sold sweeping maids hand him things, then walked away humming a nursery rhyme with a small umbrella on his back, and then went to ask the next tourist.
Around Mu Ziling, there are all living beings bustling with people coming and going.
On the long street, there are steamed steamed buns that have just been opened; there is glutinous rice wine with a handful of dried osmanthus sprinkled on the soup; there are children who are laughing and playing after school.
This is really a good world, Mu Ziling thought.
He smiled and walked towards the front of the long street.
At the head of the city, there are two tall and towering trees. When you look up, you can see the flowers dancing all over the city.
Qin Yi hadn't come yet, so Mu Ziling decided to wait for him.
He stayed in an inn, and when he entered, the shopkeeper asked him with a smile:
"My lord, are you coming to see the lantern?"
Mu Ziling didn't know what it was and shook his head.
The shopkeeper said: "Every February 23rd in Shengyang, we hold a lantern show. Today is the day. Many tourists come here just for this day. After dinner, you are free. Go and see it?"
Mu Ziling didn't expect that at the end of his life, he would be able to catch up with such a day.
After settling down, he stood in front of the window, opened the window, and took a look at the excitement.
When the stars first appeared, as expected, lanterns began to be hung on the street.
And each lantern has a name written on it, which seems to express admiration and prayer.Boys and girls form pairs and swim hand in hand on the street.
The fire tree and the silver flowers are closed, and the iron lock of the star bridge is opened.
The dark dust goes with the horse, and the bright moon comes with people. [*note 2]
The prosperous Jiangzhou has always been such a city where warblers fly and grass grows, and the city is as bright as spring.
Every lover who meets in Jiangzhou like this is a kind of luck.
"Young master, come down and buy a lantern."
Seeing Mu Ziling upstairs, the peddler on the opposite street greeted him with a smile: "I'll give you a discount!"
Mu Ziling was taken aback and hesitated, but after a moment of hesitation, he still went downstairs.
"how much is this?"
Mu Ziling pointed to a lotus-colored lantern painted with lotus flowers, and asked softly.
"Five copper coins!"
The peddler made a gesture and said with a smile, "You really have a good eye. This is the most beautiful lamp I have ever made."
After Mu Ziling paid, the peddler asked again, "Do you want to write?"
"If you have any wish, write it on the lamp and let it out. If God sees it, he will help you realize it."
Mu Ziling smiled, feeling that Sheng Yang was really a country full of wishes and fantasies.
He took the writing brush by the side of the booth and wrote his mother's name on it.
He thought, when his mother came here, he wondered if he had caught up with such a "lantern show".
If she catches up, she will probably not write his father's name, but pray that she will have a good relationship with that luthier in the next life.
Mu Ziling carried the lamp and walked slowly along the streets.
In addition to hanging lights, there are many bamboo umbrellas on the street.
Gorgeous and bright, each one looks extremely beautiful.
He passed the flower building, which smelled of sweet and greasy powder, and through the bead curtain, the charming little prostitute was playing the pipa, laughing and telling magnificent myths.
The soft and waxy Jiangzhou ditty, the soft language of Wu Nong that makes people forget the troubles.
Mu Ziling stood in front of the door and listened for a while, then heard them say:
Thousands of years ago, there were gods in this world.
One of them is on good terms with the Infernal Emperor of the Underworld...[*Note 3]
But after standing still for a while, a branch of magnolia suddenly fell from the attic and hit Mu Ziling's forehead.
Mu Ziling was stunned, and looked up, only to see a woman in a green shirt covering her face with a light fan on the attic looking at him, her eyes were rippling, as if she was holding an indescribable smile.
There were a few companions beside her, and when they saw Mu Ziling really looked up, they couldn't help laughing and making a fuss, trying to push her out so that Mu Ziling could see her.
On the day of the flower show, boys and girls who have lovers swim together; those who don't have lovers stand in the attic, waiting for a young master to pass by on the street.
If you see someone who is close to your eyes, you can drop the flower branch in your hand. If you hit it, and the other party is interested, you can pick up the flower branch and pin it on the front of your chest to form a good relationship.
And Mu Ziling is seventeen this year, which is the best age.
He stood there, even though his black hair was turning into frost, he still had an unparalleled elegance in the world.
Quiet and indifferent, arrogant and bright.
Later, Mu Ziling naturally didn't pin the branch of white magnolia to his front.
He picked up the small white Qingyou flower and placed it on a round and clean stone.
After wandering around late at night, Mu Ziling walked back the same way and rested at the inn.
It was the penultimate day of his life.
On the second day, Qin Yi still didn't come.
Mu Ziling could only wait for his last day.
He was not in a hurry, but Qin Yi was too slow.
After breakfast, Mu Ziling went to the teahouse.
It's not yet early summer, and the lotus pods in Jiangzhou have not yet come out this year.
Mu Ziling went to Qizhen City and bought a few that were shipped from other places at a high price.Sitting at the table in the teahouse and peeling slowly.
Sunshine came in from the lowered roller blinds and fell dappledly on his desk.
Mu Ziling's fingers resting on them were long and thin, and every joint was beautiful and distinct. Just looking at these hands, there was a sense of affection.Mu Ziling peeled and peeled, a little distracted.
If there is time, he wants to "see" Qin Yi again.
I just don't know if Qin Yi can catch up.
From the morning to the afternoon, when it was almost dusk, there was finally some movement.
There was a great commotion at the gate of the city, as if a group of people broke in, frantically looking for people one by one.
They catch everyone on the street, look at his face, no, change another one.
Someone was frightened and wanted to report to the police.
Mu Ziling looked at those people running towards the yamen, and thought, Qin Yi shouldn't have made such a big commotion.It's too ostentatious.
——But Qin Yi followed the traces, and when he finally found out that Mu Ziling was going to Jiangzhou, a terrible feeling suddenly arose in his heart.
Where is there any scruples.
He seemed to have a premonition of what was about to happen, afraid that he would not be able to stop it in time.
Before Mu Ziling took that step, he would risk his life to stop him.
Mu Ziling stood on the balcony, looking at Qin Yi from a distance.
Long time no see, he has become much older.It looks like there are 27 eights.
Probably because of traveling thousands of miles, there are unconcealable weather and hardships on the cheeks, slightly wrinkled clothes, and bloodshot eyes.
But in the crowd, it is still very eye-catching, and it is different from ordinary people at first glance, with a kind of aristocratic temperament.
He has always been very similar to the boy who rescued Mu Ziling back then, with the shadow of when he was 15 years old.
He is so radiant and extravagant, he is different from every Yunyan royal boy Mu Ziling has ever met.
With such a good skin, Mu Ziling was lured into the abyss.
Mu Ziling watched him quietly for a while, and it was almost evening.
The afterglow of the setting sun is about to dissipate.
The sky became hazy, a little blue, but it wasn't quite night yet.
It will be dark, and there is a crescent moon hanging in the sky.
Qin Yi searched for half a street along the way, but at a certain moment, like a telepathy, he suddenly raised his head and looked towards the tallest restaurant in the city——
On the second floor there, stood a white shadow, watching him quietly.
...Mu Ziling! !
At that moment, Qin Yi said silently in his heart.
He was almost certain that it was Mu Ziling.
Standing on the pavilion on the second floor, the man in white robe saw that Qin Yi had noticed him, but not only did he not hide, but a smile appeared on his lips.
He beckoned to Qin Yi——
It seems to be speaking silently.
Qin Yi, come here.
And come.
To bring to an end all that we wrongly started.
There was a "clang" in Qin Yi's head, and he ran away like crazy.
Mu Ziling smiled, exited the pavilion, and entered the room.
They will end where it all began.
Mu Ziling thought.
The little flower girl hidden behind the bead curtain is still singing, the moon is like a hook on a bright moon night.
In the gorgeous and sweet powdery air——
The son went down to the west building in white clothes.
At this time, it was evening, and countless working people were going home. It was the busiest time of day in Jiangzhou.
Qin Yi tried his best to push aside the flow of people in front of him, and rushed towards the direction where Mu Ziling was.
But when he arrived, the second floor was empty.
"Mu Ziling—"
"Mu Ziling...!!"
"Phoenix-"
Qin Yi ran in and out, knocking the densely packed tables and chairs into a clang.
Finally, he stopped in the direction of the window, which was where Mu Ziling sat during the day.
There are still a few peeled lotus pod skins on it.
Qin Yi panted quietly for a moment, pushed open the window, and looked out the window.
There are many people on the street, carrying poles, bamboo baskets, and bamboo hats...
It is a peaceful evening.
But when he looked around and finally saw the West Lake, Qin Yi froze all of a sudden.
He saw a white shadow riding a boat towards the center of the lake.
In the next moment, he stopped his oars and stood up.
"This world is not good, but I protect you. Are you willing to live for me?"
Yes, for the past eight years, I have been living for you.
"...Gu loves you. Gu is willing to...start again with you."
OK, so let's start over from here.
——But this time, don't come to save me again.
That year, I broke my elder brother's longevity lock, and I was so scared that I would die, I came to Jiangzhou crying, wanting to go to West Lake to find my mother.
She is at the bottom of West Lake.
You saved me, I am embarrassed to tell you, but I only said that I fell into the water because of picking lotus pods.
But now, I don't want to live for you a second time.
We are here, where it all begins and ends.
For a moment, Qin Yi didn't believe that Mu Ziling would just jump down to seek death.
He loved him so much, liked him, and waited for him for eight full years.
Now he finally likes him too, how could he be willing to die like this.
But he just watched it all happen.
Qin Yi looked at the lake quietly, and it took him a long time to hear the "plop" sound of falling into the water.
They were so far apart, and there were noises from the bustling streets, maybe that was just a phantom sound in Qin Yi's ears.
But the sound of "gudong" entering the water has since become Qin Yi's nightmare, making it impossible for him to come out again in his life.
He watched Mu Ziling jump in with his own eyes, and then the center of the lake swayed, creating a faint circle of ripples.
……
When seeing Mu Ziling again, Mu Ziling's whole body was already icy cold.
It took Qin Yi a lot of effort to find him. His whole body was dripping wet, his eyes were closed tightly, and he couldn't move or breathe.
Qin Yi touched his face, it was still soft, but cold to the bone.
Mu Ziling left him nothing, but put a handful of lotus seeds on the bank.
27, exactly the same as the number Qin Yi stripped him back then.
Qin Yi knew what he meant——
He settled with him.
What he gave to Mu Ziling, Mu Ziling returned to him.
Never owe him anything.
All the warmth and hope in his life once came from Qin Yi.
He is short-sighted, involuntary, mistook nostalgia for love, and caused Qin Yi a lot of troubles. I am really sorry.
But if he really felt sorry, why didn't he wait for Qin Yi to live for him.
"Phoenix."
Qin Yi looked at him hesitantly, and asked, "Why didn't you wait for Gu to bring you back to Liang?"
Mu Ziling didn't speak, nor did he open his eyes.His hair was as pale as snow, almost unrecognizable by Qin Yi.
"Kings……"
Surrounded by many followers, they all hesitated to speak and looked at Qin Yi worriedly.
Qin Yi wanted to hug Mu Ziling up, but for some reason, he struggled with his legs several times, but he couldn't stand up.
Mu Ziling was lying in his arms, his face was pale and his body was cold.
Leaning on him unconsciously.
"Gu will take you back to Liang Cheng."
Qin Yi said it again.
"In a few days, the white camellias in front of the palace gate will bloom..."
"There is also steamed lotus seeds."
"I'll do it for you alone."
Qin Yi staggered, hugged Mu Ziling's body, stumbled and walked back.
As he walked, he kissed Mu Ziling's pale cheek.
There were still drops of water on his eyelashes, and with Qin Yi's movements, they swayed slightly and rolled down immediately.
Qin Yi was trembling from the kiss, and his whole body was trembling. Before taking two steps, he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood and splashed it on the ground.
Blood dripped from Qin Yi's mouth and nose. He trembled and wiped away the drop that splashed on Mu Ziling's cheek, but he didn't know what was going on. The more he wiped, the more he wiped.
Tears washed away the blood.
In Jiangzhou, there are so many beauties, and Mu Ziling is not inferior in the slightest.
His brows are still so lingering and gorgeous, like a handful of ice and snow melted in March, cold, passionate and decisive.
The once white-clothed and black-haired boy turned out to be a beauty when he grew up.
Qin Yi finally fell on Mu Ziling and cried.
He was sobbing, and under the eyes of everyone, he looked like a desperate beast.
This day happens to be February 24th.
It was only nine days away from Mu Ziling's full age.
[*Note 1] Sao Qing Niang: It is the sunny doll.
[*Note 2] The verse comes from: Tang Su Weiwei in "The Fifteenth Night of the First Moon".
[*Note 3] Do you still remember the city close by, my friends.
It is very close to Fallen God Tower and Chifeng Pass.Because of the shou in the main CP, the god king fell into the sky in the falling god tower, and the weapon fell into Chifengguan. At that time, the attack in the main CP happened to only reach the "City of Immediately".Watching someone you love die in front of your eyes.
That's why it's called "City Closer".
Qin Yi hasn't arrived yet, probably because he followed the stream that night and looked in the wrong direction.
He looked at the busy Jiangzhou, everything seemed to be the same as it was eight years ago.
The flowers are blooming like a brocade, and people are coming and going.
There are people selling apricot blossoms on the street, and some people are yelling, "Sweet tofu nao—"
Mu Ziling walked to the place where he had bought candied haws. The alley was still there, but there was no longer the peddler with a wooden stick in the bustling crowd.
"My lord, do you want to sweep Qing Niang?" [*Note 1]
Mu Ziling was standing by the side of the street. A child holding a small umbrella pulled his sleeve and asked him.
It has just rained, and there are still small puddles and small puddles on the ground that have not dried up.
There are many snow-white dolls hanging on the children's umbrellas, their eyebrows and eyes are drawn with immature handwriting, and they smile awkwardly at everyone.
Mu Ziling took out an ingot of silver taels from his bosom, and put it in the child's palm:
"I want one."
The child was very happy, and couldn't stop saying happily: "Thank you, young master, thank you, young master."
"Write the name of the person waiting in the snow cloth, and he will come before it rains next time!"
Seeing Mu Ziling's expression, the child laughed: "It's very clever."
Mu Ziling looked at him, the child was about six or seven years old, only a little higher than Mu Ziling's knees.
He couldn't help asking: "You are so young, won't your family worry about you when you come out?"
"My dad is sick."
The child smiled and said, "He used to sell candied haws here, but last year he suffered from back pain so badly that he couldn't come here. I'll sell Sweeping Girls to subsidize my mother's family."
Mu Ziling stared at him blankly, and suddenly felt a strange sense of going back in time.
Many years ago, when he was only eight or nine years old, he used to stand here, watching the alley with vigilance and curiosity.
He asked the sugar peddler, "how to get to West Lake".
But now that time has passed, he returns to Jiangzhou again, everything seems to be still here, and everything seems to have changed long ago.

Around Mu Ziling, there are all living beings bustling with people coming and going.
On the long street, there are steamed steamed buns that have just been opened; there is glutinous rice wine with a handful of dried osmanthus sprinkled on the soup; there are children who are laughing and playing after school.

"Five copper coins!"
The peddler made a gesture and said with a smile, "You really have a good eye. This is the most beautiful lamp I have ever made."
After Mu Ziling paid, the peddler asked again, "Do you want to write?"
"If you have any wish, write it on the lamp and let it out. If God sees it, he will help you realize it."
Mu Ziling smiled, feeling that Sheng Yang was really a country full of wishes and fantasies.
He took the writing brush by the side of the booth and wrote his mother's name on it.
He thought, when his mother came here, he wondered if he had caught up with such a "lantern show".

Qin Yi tried his best to push aside the flow of people in front of him, and rushed towards the direction where Mu Ziling was.

"Mu Ziling...!!"
"Phoenix-"
Qin Yi ran in and out, knocking the densely packed tables and chairs into a clang.

Qin Yi panted quietly for a moment, pushed open the window, and looked out the window.

"This world is not good, but I protect you. Are you willing to live for me?"
Yes, for the past eight years, I have been living for you.
"...Gu loves you. Gu is willing to...start again with you."
OK, so let's start over from here.

But if he really felt sorry, why didn't he wait for Qin Yi to live for him.
"Phoenix."
Qin Yi looked at him hesitantly, and asked, "Why didn't you wait for Gu to bring you back to Liang?"
Mu Ziling didn't speak, nor did he open his eyes.His hair was as pale as snow, almost unrecognizable by Qin Yi.
"Kings……"
Surrounded by many followers, they all hesitated to speak and looked at Qin Yi worriedly.
Qin Yi wanted to hug Mu Ziling up, but for some reason, he struggled with his legs several times, but he couldn't stand up.
Mu Ziling was lying in his arms, his face was pale and his body was cold.
Leaning on him unconsciously.
"Gu will take you back to Liang Cheng."
Qin Yi said it again.
"In a few days, the white camellias in front of the palace gate will bloom..."
"There is also steamed lotus seeds."
"I'll do it for you alone."
Qin Yi staggered, hugged Mu Ziling's body, stumbled and walked back.
As he walked, he kissed Mu Ziling's pale cheek.
There were still drops of water on his eyelashes, and with Qin Yi's movements, they swayed slightly and rolled down immediately.
Qin Yi was trembling from the kiss, and his whole body was trembling. Before taking two steps, he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood and splashed it on the ground.
Blood dripped from Qin Yi's mouth and nose. He trembled and wiped away the drop that splashed on Mu Ziling's cheek, but he didn't know what was going on. The more he wiped, the more he wiped.
Tears washed away the blood.
In Jiangzhou, there are so many beauties, and Mu Ziling is not inferior in the slightest.
His brows are still so lingering and gorgeous, like a handful of ice and snow melted in March, cold, passionate and decisive.
The once white-clothed and black-haired boy turned out to be a beauty when he grew up.
Qin Yi finally fell on Mu Ziling and cried.
He was sobbing, and under the eyes of everyone, he looked like a desperate beast.
This day happens to be February 24th.
It was only nine days away from Mu Ziling's full age.

[*Note 3] Do you still remember the city close by, my friends.
It is very close to Fallen God Tower and Chifeng Pass.Because of the shou in the main CP, the god king fell into the sky in the falling god tower, and the weapon fell into Chifengguan. At that time, the attack in the main CP happened to only reach the "City of Immediately".Watching someone you love die in front of your eyes.
That's why it's called "City Closer".
