When the devil

There is a lantern festival in the city, colorful lights hang down from the eaves, the sky and the earth are gorgeous, and the parade crowd walks on the widest main road of Liuli City, dancing red dragons chasing the fireballs, and jubilant under the colorful hoods of Cangyan Qilin.

Mortals always give faith to the gods, thank the auspicious beasts for their protection, and look forward to such a bountiful harvest in the coming year.

In the center of Liuli City, in front of the statue of the Cangyan Qilin, a woman in gorgeous costumes is shouting loudly, saying that she wants to be blessed by the Qilin, so she prays for blessings at the holy scale.

As she said, there is a scale burning with blue flames floating in the air, it is not a real Canglin, but a very symbolic imitation.

There were even more people praying for blessings, and the whole square was full of kneeling.Xia Zhou looked at it but sneered, and murmured: "Canglin's virtuous nature can't talk to annoying people, everyone might as well change their beliefs."

In fact, he was right, Cang Lin really wouldn't pay attention to such meaningless blessings, he even complained more than once, that there is no connection between Liuli Mountain and Liuli City, how shameless the city owner is to put this name on his fairy mountain rub.

That being said, Cang Lin always went to Liuli City. He had eaten in the snack street, stayed in the opera house, joined in the fun in the gambling hall, and even went to the yamen for a few times.When someone asked him, he always commented with disdain: "Vulgar, boring, not fun." He said that he was not afraid of being slapped in the face, and continued to sneak out to play after a few days.

"Master, the uncle has come to see you several times these days when you are not here. I really want to ask him to play with him today, but he just can't let go." Mochi and Anu bought a candied haws and ate them together. while walking.

Wei Ling said: "He is very busy, let's go and see him in two days."

Thinking about the crowds of people coming to this celebration, Cheng Yingjie had to be very careful to keep an eye on it. If any evil spirits got in there, the consequences would be disastrous.

Just walking on the road, Wei Ling suddenly stopped at a shop displaying a dazzling array of jewelry.

"What's wrong?" Mochi tilted his head and looked into the shop.

"Your uncle is getting married next month, I'll go see if there's anything I can give you." After saying this, Wei Ling walked into the store.

"What? What!? Uncle Master is getting married?!" Mochi once again used his loud voice skills, the words came out, and everyone in the store looked over.

Xia Zhou walked into the store behind Wei Ling, glanced at the hairpins on the shelf, and then at the one on Wei Ling's head, thinking that no matter how beautiful a hair accessory is, it is not as beautiful as a person.

"It's so beautiful." Anu looked around with her big eyes open.

"Anu." Mochi took a hairpin casually, decorated with an aster pendant, and compared it to Anu's hair: "It's pretty pretty."

Anu caught your hairpin with both hands: "Is it really pretty?"

Mochi nodded.

Anu ran up to Wei Ling again: "Brother! Look."

Wei Ling looked down at Anu, her immature face never knew how to dress up, she looked disheveled, her hair was also dull and colorless, even with a beautiful hairpin, it was hard to hide the pain in her life after the torment of life. Vicissitudes.

"It's pretty, I'll give it to you if you like it." Wei Ling took the hairpin from her hand, touched her hair and helped her insert it.

Anu lowered her head shyly and clasped her hands together: "My brother is also pretty."

Mochi blinked, and suddenly asked Xia Zhou: "My master is really a gentle, kind, and reasonable person."

Xia Zhou: "Yes."

Mochi: "Why are you so disdainful?"

Xia Zhou: "Oh."

Wei Ling has always had two faces towards Xia Zhou and others. Xia Zhou is upset once when he sees it. Fortunately, he has a thick skin and is not afraid that he will not be able to get along with him, especially this Anu. , but suddenly Anu raised his head, squeezed the corners of his eyes and gave Xia Zhou a smug look.

Xia Zhou thought he was wrong.

"Brother, brother, if you want to give a girl a gift, I'll help you choose." Anu turned her head and jumped up and down around Wei Ling again.

Xia Zhou asked Mochi, "Did she provoke me just now?"

Mo Chi nodded hesitantly: "It seems so."

Xia Zhou looked at Anu.

Mochi: "??"

In the end, Wei Ling chose a jade bracelet and bought it together with Anu's hairpin. When he walked out of the shop, Xia Zhou glanced sideways at the bracelet in his hand and asked curiously, "You bought this for the convenience of engraving?"

"Yes." Wei Ling said, "I'm not good at giving gifts, so I can only try what I'm good at."

Jade ornaments usually have the effect of warding off evil spirits. Thinking that Cheng Yingjie, as the patriarch of the Pingyang Sect of the Taili Academy, will deal with evil spirits more in the future, Wei Ling plans to engrave a demon seal on the bracelet, hoping to keep him and his wife safe .

Xia Zhou said cheekily: "You can give me a gift every day, if you give me more, you'll be good at it."

Wei Ling looked at him, as if looking at a fool.

Sometimes he admires Xia Zhou, he is not shy when speaking, and his smile is very polite and gentle. After getting along with him for a long time, he has become accustomed to his shameless attitude, and he will not feel strange when he says anything.

Not long after I came out of the store, the huge square was already full of people. From a distance, it was dark and full of people's heads.

Wei Ling didn't like to join in the fun, and when he saw a lot of people, he wanted to go around, but Xia Zhou stretched out his hand to hold him: "The main event is coming, don't go."

During the speech, the colored lights in the city changed to blue again, as if rising slowly, and began to approach the sky.It was a trick done by the jugglers nearby. They lit blue paper lanterns on the flames, and they rose up into the sky one by one.Then, as if in the blink of an eye, the colorful streetscape just now turned into a neat blue.

"This is the sacred flower ball bestowed by the Canglin God. The recipient will be bound in love forever, with many children and blessings!"

A few girls dressed up gorgeously turned over and danced on the middle stage. They held a flower ball in their hands and rose and fell as they danced.

"Wow. That's amazing!" Mochi put his feet on his feet and looked at it for a while, then simply turned over and jumped onto the stone lion next to him.

"I want to see it too, I want to see it too!" Anu was even shorter, and in a blink of an eye he was so overwhelmed by the crowd that he couldn't even see the top of his head.

Mochi's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, seeing that she was about to be swept away by the crowd, he grabbed Anu and brought her to his side.

"Aren't you very good at lightness kungfu?" Mochi asked her.

Anu pouted, trying to complain that he was meddling in his own business, but the blue lights flew with the wind, reflecting such brilliance in her flawless eyes that she was drawn away unconsciously.

Xia Zhou stepped back and stood on the steps of the jewelry store just now, passing through the crowds of people, watching those girls throwing bouquets and dancing.

Wei Ling came to him and followed his gaze. He never thought that Xia Zhou would be interested in the performances of these troupes.

"The little girl, how long do you plan to let her follow?" Xia Zhou asked him suddenly.

Wei Ling said: "She is a good girl of her duty, and her talent is not bad, but it is a pity that she suffered from suffering at a young age, her hands are full of calluses, and she is full of depression and fatigue."

Xia Zhou's eyes reflected the light of the world: "So you have a strong maternal instinct and want to be a mother?"

Wei Ling glanced at him inexplicably: "It's fate to meet each other, it's just a matter of little effort."

Xia Zhou said: "If you talk about fate, who else in this world can compare with you and me?"

Wei Ling thought for a while, and felt wrong, he said, "Didn't you always remember that you met me when you came to this world?"

"I really hate you." Xia Zhou looked into the distance, "But who would have thought that hatred would give birth to love?"

Wei Ling thought she was listening to a joke.

Xia Zhou didn't explain any more, he looked into the distance and didn't speak any more.

To be honest, Xia Zhou has completely different looks when he is quiet and glib. Although he always follows him and always shows that he cares about himself, Wei Ling knows that his every word and action They are all so flimsy, those words didn't connect with his heart, or in other words, Wei Ling couldn't see through his heart.

Therefore, when Xia Zhou was silent, Wei Ling was so close to him, but he was no different from the stone pillar next to him. Maybe one day he suddenly disappeared, disregarding all the ties he left in the world. This moment suddenly appeared, still smiling fearlessly, as if love, hatred, and hatred were just a gentle breeze to him, and could not arouse the slightest ripple in his eyes.

"A Ling, if I wasn't a ferocious beast, would you treat me like them?" Xia Zhou seemed to be talking to himself, his voice faint and ethereal.

Wei Ling looked at him with a strange look: "What do you mean?"

"literal meaning."

Xia Zhou took a step forward, standing on this bustling street, the brilliant light was behind him, but it couldn't melt into his thick darkness.

"Here it comes!! The flower ball is here!!!"

Suddenly there was a loud roar from the crowd.

Xia Zhou stood up suddenly, his robe fluttering, and his figure was soft, flying across the air like a phantom.

Almost no one could see what happened, and when he landed again, the bouquet was already in his hands.

The crowd was stunned for a while, and then burst into a burst of fierce cheers.

"The flower ball was taken away?!"

"He, why is he so fast!"

"Wow, that young man is so handsome!!!"

"I don't know who can receive the flower ball from the young master... I'm so happy!"

"Why don't we try it too, the young master will... ah...!"

There were endless voices in his ears, Xia Zhou smiled unruly, and a little softness flowed under his sharp sword eyebrows.

He handed the flower ball in his hand to Wei Ling: "For you."

A group of people surrounded Wei Ling inexplicably, and they didn't understand why. Xia Zhou handed it to him, and he followed it obediently. The light and shadow overlapped his handsome outline, and his eyes were undisturbed, soft and watery.

In an instant, a commotion broke out in the crowd, which was more intense than before, and there was inexplicable applause.

It took Wei Ling a while to realize something was wrong, and asked in a low voice, "What is this?"

As a result, the voices of the crowd became higher and higher, covering his voice.

"How did he give the bouquet to the man!"

"Oh my god, could it be that they are...uh, that kind of relationship..."

"But this young man is also very good-looking."

"I'm so happy."

"That's a bouquet thrown in the name of Qilin. Not only will it lead to a good marriage, but it will also give birth to a precious son!"

"It's a feast for the eyes to be accompanied by such a good-looking gentleman every day!"

Wei Ling panicked, and wanted to throw away the bouquet, but he let go of the bouquet, and Xia Zhou caught it again, and then took a step forward. Just leaped away from under the eyes of everyone.

"Let me go." Wei Ling tugged on Xia Zhou's hand, but Xia Zhou didn't let go, and even used his demonic power to emit layers of black smoke, binding Wei Ling in his arms.

"Give birth to a precious son early, what will the immortal think?" Xia Zhou was still unsatisfied, and threw the flower ball in his hand into the air, and it scattered into flying petals, eloquently.

Under the ten thousand zhang lights, people were robbed by him just like that.

Wei Ling became angry from embarrassment: "Let you let go."

Xia Zhou's eyes lit up, and he turned around gently, and the two landed on the top of the tallest tower in Liuli City: "I know you like to be quiet, so it's not a good place to rest, the crowds on the street are all rubbing against you, How can I bear it."

Wei Ling pulled away from him, even if a burst of madness had blown his hair away just now, he could quickly remain indifferent, full of immortal breath, and looked as if nothing in the world would touch me at all.

Xia Zhou is right, he really likes Jingjing, but what happened just now was too absurd, Wei Ling couldn't help complaining a few words: "Is this what you want to show me?"

"Yes."

"Flower balls symbolize men and women, what are you doing with me!"

Xia Zhou giggled, and his smile was very pretty: "Guess."

"You..." Wei Ling hesitated to speak, "It's unreasonable." Still not knowing what to do, he turned to the side and sat down without saying a word.

Whenever there is something related to sex|interest, Wei Ling will always be so angry. Xia Zhou especially likes to see him like this, he is a hundred times cuter than he is at any time.

So, Xia Zhou took out his housekeeping skills as thick as a city wall, and Wei Ling sat there, and he also moved there: "Didn't you say today that you will be smashed to pieces and you will be with me for life? In comparison, What are bouquets?"

"Don't add oil and vinegar."

Wei Ling already had the mentality of being at ease when she came, and as soon as she sat down and looked at the bustling city in the distance, half of the anger in her heart that was fooled by Xia Zhou dissipated.

Xia Zhou smiled all over his face: "If you don't want to see me, I'll pack up and leave tomorrow. I guarantee that you won't be able to find me even if you go all the way."

Wei Ling admits defeat: "Please spare me, Xia Da Yao."

Xia Zhou won the round and happily hummed a ditty.

Wei Ling listened to Xia Zhou's out-of-tune singing, and stared at the sky in a daze for a while. He had practiced on Liuli Mountain for nearly a hundred years, but he had been in the world for less than 20 years. Perhaps for him, his mind was still that of those young Vigorous boy.

Looking at Xia Zhou next to him, his black hair was bundled up, hanging lazily behind him, the demonic aura in his phoenix eyes lingered, and all the wild aura condensed into pieces.He is so handsome, so casual, it seems that even the mortal world can't lock half an inch of his light and shadow.

Wei Ling looked past him and looked into the distance.

The blue sky lanterns in the city had already flown into the sky, and when the wind came occasionally, they swayed and reflected the distant moonlight, embellishing the endless night into a sea of ​​stars.

Suddenly, he asked Xia Zhou: "Do you know what the sky lantern is for?"

Xia Zhou stopped the ditty: "Make a wish?"

Wei Ling smiled, and said thoughtfully: "There is a kind of capital punishment, which is to strip people naked, tie them up in sacks, then soak them in an oil tank, and then light them at night to burn them to ashes. The fire is the sky lantern."

His voice is soft and pleasant, like the polluted spring water in the mountains.On weekdays, when he speaks, his ups and downs are stable, and the words are clean and untouched, as if everything he confides in his words is so beautiful that people yearn for it.

But this time it was very different.

Xia Zhou looked at Wei Ling suspiciously, and he had a great change in his mind about Wei Ling.

Naturally, Wei Ling didn't know what was going on in his mind, and continued, "But look, the sky lanterns rising in this city."

Xia Zhou followed him: "Listen to what you said just now, this faint blue patch looks like a will-o'-the-wisp."

Wei Ling chuckled twice, maybe the color was a little quieter.

Xia Zhou asked him: "However, how do you know these bloody allusions?"

Wei Ling slowed down for a moment, then whispered, "I've seen it before, I'll never forget it."
