White-haired Demon Lord and Senior Brother

◎Scroll and ice cream◎

In a blink of an eye, it was night again, Yang Xinsu left Jiufanpu with tired steps, only thinking about going back to the residence to sleep well, walking through several streets in Fangshi, walking Walking through the palace gate of the deep palace, when passing through the palace road between the palaces, suddenly a flash of inspiration occurred, and he remembered something.

He stopped suddenly and blurted out: "No! I've been back all the way, all the way back, why am I still here alone? Where's Uncle Wuyan?!" Looking back at the road he had walked, he looked at the road In the deep night road, he hesitated: "Should I go back to find him? What if he waits for me in Fangshi and can't wait for me?"

He glanced at the depths of the dark road again, thought for a while, and said to himself again: "But I'm so tired, I really want to sleep right away, yes! Sleep is important! I don't care about uncles or uncles..." He yawned and continued to drag his steps forward.

He walked through a corridor while yawning, and suddenly caught a figure from the corner of his eye.A man sat reclined on the stone steps and drank, the mellow aroma of the wine wafting from his nostrils.

He only felt that the man's hairstyle and robe were quite familiar, so he decided to delay for a while, walked over, then squatted beside the man, raised a hand and patted the man's shoulder, after the man took a sip of wine look back.

"Uncle Wuyan?!" When slightly surprised, Yang Xinsu blurted out, and then wondered: "You don't pick me up tonight, why are you sitting here drinking alone?"

Wu Yan ignored him, just raised the wine jar in his hand, and sent the cool wine to his mouth.

Yang Xinsu patted Wu Yan's shoulder again: "Uncle Wu Yan, say something!"

Wu Yan simply said: "You can either drink with me, or go back to sleep, don't talk here."

Yang Xinsu said: "Get out, get out, I'm very tired!" Standing up, she turned around, but she didn't take a step, just because of curiosity, she squatted next to him again, and asked: "Do you have any worries?" ?”

Wu Yan didn't answer, but simply picked up an unopened wine jar at his feet, and handed it to Yang Xinsu.

Yang Xinsu was stunned for a moment, wondering: "Do you really want me to drink it?" He glanced at the cold gaze that appeared in the corner of his eyes, and was immediately persuaded, took the wine jar obediently, tore open the seal, glanced at him, and slowly Slowly lifted the wine jar and took a sip.

When living in Yangui Island, Yang Xinsu was often given alcohol, and she was already used to the bitter taste of alcohol, but she was afraid of going to the toilet in the middle of the night, so she didn't dare to drink too much at this time.

After drinking, he asked again: "I've drank all the wine, you should tell me, why are you drinking here?"

Wu Yan asked back: "Then I should also ask you, why are you so curious and always listen to other people's thoughts?"

Yang Xinsu was stunned for a while, unable to answer, she could only laugh at herself: "Maybe it's... I'm more of a jerk."

Wu Yan looked at the bright and waning moon above the eaves, suddenly changed the subject, and asked a very sudden question: "What kind of feelings do you have for Li Zhen?"

Because it was impossible to guard against, Yang Xinsu was surprised when she heard it, her cheeks were blushing slightly, and she couldn't tell whether it was from the smell of alcohol or the blush from embarrassment.He said nervously, "You suddenly asked this, I...I..."

Wu Yan smiled lightly and reminded: "You are nervous."

Yang Xinsu lowered her head slightly, and the wine jar rested on her knees, covering half of his face.

Wu Yan only looked at the scene of the floating clouds chasing the waning moon in the night sky, and murmured: "In this world, people who like each other are different, but their feelings are all the same, but it's all lovesickness."

Yang Xinsu turned her face away and said, "I don't understand what you said."

Wu Yan continued to drink, took a big sip, the wine slipped into his mouth, wet the corners of his lips, and wet his cheeks, but Wu Yan didn't seem to care, and murmured again: "We can see each other every day, but we have to meet each other every day." I can get it, but I can’t meet it. Creation makes people, and creations make people..." After the words fell, another gulp of wine slipped into Monkey Dragon.

I don't know whether these words were intentional or unintentional, but they hit Yang Xinsu's heart. Yang Xinsu couldn't help but lifted the wine jar and took a sip of wine, and then took a big gulp.

In the middle of the night, on the stone steps of the corridor, there were only a few scattered empty wine jars left, and the two figures drifted away unsteadily in the light of the corridor lights, with no direction under their feet, as if they were swaying and flying with the wind go.

From midnight to dawn, it was only a short time, the dark sky gradually revealed the whiteness of the fish belly, bit by bit the blackness was torn apart, the whiteness was rendered layer by layer, and a touch of red was sprinkled on the whiteness, The wind blew past, and there was a cool breeze, but it couldn't swallow the scorching heat.

The dew outside the house had not evaporated yet, but a scream pierced the tranquility of the early morning.

"Uncle Wuyan! Why is this happening??!"

The loud voice that disturbed the dream rang in his ears, Wu Yan was awakened immediately, opened his eyes, slowly propped up his upper body, glanced at the floor, but turned a blind eye, just sat on the bed in a daze, as if not fully Sober.

Yang Xinsu was still yelling: "I drank with you last night! Why did you come back! I'm the same age as you! The point is—why do you sleep on my bed! I sleep on the floor?!"

Wu Yan covered his ears and climbed down from the bed, glanced at the person lying on the floor, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and said calmly: "Get up quickly, don't be ashamed there."

Yang Xinsu propped up her upper body, and said again: "That's right! I didn't take a shower when I came back last night, and I even drank with you..." Sniffing his shirt, it was a strange smell mixed with sweat and wine, Even he couldn't bear it himself, so he quickly got up: "I have to take a shower!"

Wu Yan grabbed his back by the collar with one hand, not letting him run away, and said, "I'll go to the bathroom with you."

Yang Xinsu quickly resisted: "That's not allowed! You can't look at my body anymore!"

Wu Yan let go of his fingers, and tapped the back of his neck lightly with the side of his palm: "I'm not interested in your body, I just want to wash off the smell of alcohol on my body."

Yang Xinsu rubbed the back of her neck, still worried, and offered a condition: "You use your bathtub, and I use mine!"

Wu Yan just walked away, without quarreling with him.

Yang Xinsu was afraid that he would snatch the best bathtub and the best bath water, so she hurriedly chased after him.

In the bathroom, when changing clothes, Yang Xinsu slowly took off her upper jacket, while Wu Yan already took off all her robes, lifted the curtain, and walked barefoot to the bathtub.

Yang Xinsu was about to untie her belt, when she suddenly heard a soft sound beside her, she turned her head and looked at the floor next to her, and saw a picture scroll left on the ground, less than a foot long, and the picture scroll was facing the dirty inkstone without inkstone on the shelf. gown.

He hurriedly bent down to pick it up, and opened the scroll inside to take a look. On the paper was a man in green with a handsome face, an erhu on his back, and a long sword, which made him confused.

--Who is this guy?Why did Uncle Wuyan carry this man's portrait with him?

Puzzled, he had no choice but to roll up the portrait, gently put it back on the ground, and then took a bath as early as possible.

In Qingluan City, because of the extremely hot weather, Su Zhongming ordered every stove in Xiangxuanzhu, Shuilingzhu, and Siwuzhu to make ice cream, using all the existing materials in Qingluan City.

In each huge kitchen, dozens of people use vinegar and long pestles at the same time to smash the high-pile fruits in the wide-mouthed vats. The fruits in each vat are different, and there are ten A few people were smashing ice cubes, dry cheese, and whipping cream, while in front of the stove, there were more than a dozen people frying crispy skin tubes, and the aroma of cheese, cream and fruit filled the stove.

On this day, everyone in Jinling Pavilion fanned their fans in the scorching heat of steaming meat again, and buried their heads in reading materials. The mountain of booklets on the table were just the newly added names and identities of the victims of the case that had just been sent over from the Pingjing Palace. , autopsy, and the experience before the incident as described by the victim.

In just two hours, people began to yawn one after another. They looked very tired and whispered occasionally, but the entire Jinling Pavilion seemed very quiet. Although they had a full lunch, they seized the momentum. The summer heat still suppresses everyone's energy and makes people sluggish.

Just when everyone thought that this day could only be passed away in such a boring way, suddenly a very excited voice came from outside the house: "Ice cream is here! We have ice cream!" Accompanied by this voice, Cen Xiaowu rushed into the house.

Xuan Hengzhi stopped Cen Xiaowu, looked behind him, and the others followed and looked out of the house, only to see a waiter pushing a small trolley slowly outside the threshold and stopped, then picked up the cart on the trolley. The small box, stepped into the room, and opened the lid.

At that moment, a gust of cold air gushed out from the bottom of the box, making everyone around the box feel instantly cool. There were thick pieces of crushed ice piled up on the bottom of the box, and a few cone-shaped ice cream sticks were inserted between the ice cubes. More or less, just one for each person.

Several hands reached out to the bottom of the box at the same time, but Xuan Hengzhi slapped them away.Xuan Hengzhi said solemnly: "Line up! Take one by one!" As soon as he finished speaking, everyone immediately lined up in a long queue and took away their own share one by one. When it was Xuan Heng's turn , the last one left.

Ba Ci licked the ice cream, saw another one in the bottom of the box, and suddenly asked, "Where is Daqing? Why is no one around while eating ice cream?"

The room suddenly fell silent, and after a few moments, Dou Qingqian's face appeared as if he had just come to his senses, and suddenly blurted out, breaking the silence: "What? Daqing came to Jinling Pavilion this morning?!"

Mo Fengying sighed, and said: "Daqing finished writing the attendance record early in the morning, and started playing missing again..."

At the same time, Huang Yan was sitting on the stone beside the waterfall, looking up at the birds playing on the high branches, enjoying the coolness, the sound of the waterfall falling vertically rang in his ears, without cicadas He was so noisy that he had a refreshing meditation from time to time, and he felt more and more refreshing.

Zhu Yanfeng walked up to him carrying a bamboo basket, hid the basket behind his back, and said, "This is probably the coolest place in Qingluan City."

Huang Yan didn't say pleasantries, but only noticed his hands, and said straight to the point: "What did you bring?"

Zhu Yanfeng smiled, and brought the bamboo basket in front of him. Huang Yanyan touched the outer wall of the basket, and immediately a cold air passed through his hands and threw it into his palm.He hurriedly asked: "It's so cold. What kind of heat-relieving baby is this?"

Zhu Yanfeng immediately opened the lid for him, and the thick ice cubes and the cone-shaped ice cream inserted between the ice cubes were clearly in front of his eyes, which not only added to the coolness of the place, but also exuded the aroma of desserts, tempting the taste buds.

"The blessings given to everyone by the city lord are roughly one for each person."

As he said, he picked up one and handed it in front of Huang Yan. Seeing that it was close at hand, Huang Yan leaned forward a little, licked the top of the ice cream, and felt that the taste was good, so he held the cup he was holding the ice cream in. The hands continued to lick.

Zhu Yanfeng was stunned, but didn't say a word, just smiled and watched Huang Yan licking the ice cream.The breeze blows slowly, and a yellow and green leaf flies by the wind. When the wind weakens, it loses its direction and falls into the waterfall leisurely, acting as a boat for ants to swim.
