Ukiyo heave

Jiang Dongshen turned around abruptly, before he could put down his raised hand, Nian Sheng, whom he had been longing for for four years, could be seen ten steps away.

He was taller and thinner, and his black clothes were facing the wind and his bones were as thin as a mountain. He stood in the sun with his hands behind his back.

Now Jiang Dongchen's body is already very poor, and he turns around too hard, and there are spots of blackness in front of his eyes.For a while, he didn't notice anything unusual about Nian Biesheng, so he just walked over quickly.Within two steps of him, Nian Quesheng suddenly withdrew his hand from behind, holding onto a long silver sword.Holding the hilt in his hand, the tip of the sword pointed straight at Jiang Dongchen.

Jiang Dong was stunned for a moment, looking at the sword blade piercing his heart, the whole body was silvery white and shiny, emitting a vaguely cold air.Jiang Dongshen raised his eyes hesitantly, and looked up along the sword. The eyes of the person holding the sword should have been as bright as cold stars, but now they were frighteningly red.

The scarlet was almost cruel, as if dripping into the fiery red blood, the fire burned all the way along the blade, burning Jiang Dongshen's great joy for the reunion in his heart.

This is not his gentle and sunny boy.

Then he called Ruan Ruan out of his sleeve, and ordered in a very calm and deep voice: "Go open the portal and send Yuan Ci away."

Yuan Ci heard it, and instantly opened his eyes wide. —— She never thought that things would develop like this, she watched Jiang Dongshen reach out and hold the sword blade in her heart in disbelief, and in a panic, she shouted: "Brother Jiang!"

Jiang Dongshen raised his voice: "Let's go!"

Before Yuan Ci could refuse, the teleportation door suddenly appeared on the ground. Ruan Ruan slammed her into it mercilessly, and wanted to rush back to teleport Jiang Dongchen, but Nian Qusheng suddenly said coldly to Ruan Ruan: "You dare to open the teleportation door again? I will let him die today."

Ruan Ruan didn't dare to move anymore, stopped, looked at Nian Qusheng sadly, and meowed in extreme aggrievedness.

But Nian Sheng was unmoved, and then looked at Jiang Dongshen, his eyes were undiminished, and there was no trace of the tenderness in the past.With a sneer, he said to Jiang Dongshen: "I heard him call you Brother Jiang just now. Jiang Dongshen, I have only been away for a few years, you are really good."

Quesheng said to Jiang Dongchen the year before last that if a resentful spirit speaks to others in a tone full of resentment, don't follow his words.But you can't just ignore it. If the resentful spirit has a bad temper, it doesn't matter what impulsive things it does, just pick a few insignificant answers.Jiang Dongshen knew this in his heart, but hearing him say "Jiang Dongshen" one after another, he was still a little unavoidably sad.

He never called his own name directly, and he treated many people indifferently, but he never treated Jiang Dongchen indifferently.

He should obviously be the gentlest, he should smile, or comfort him when he is happy or comfort him when he is sad, and always call him brother.

The blade had cut Jiang Dongchen's hand, and a drop of blood flowed down the palm, instead of dripping on the ground, it slid down the wrist into the wide sleeve, staining a dot red.Wraiths are more sensitive to blood, so Nian Butsheng saw it at a glance, and smiled back: "So reluctant to part with me? You should give me a sword too."

Jiang Dong said calmly: "The Southeast branch can't beat Bai Yueguang."

"Ah." The sword in Nian Quesheng's hand lightly pushed forward, swiped past Jiang Dongchen's hand, the tip of the sword pierced his lapel, and said coldly: "Yes, I almost forgot, you can recognize Bai Moonlight."

Jiang Dongshen ignored his words, and only said: "A Sheng, wake up."

After finishing speaking, he felt that it was not enough, and added another sentence: "Wake up, we are going home."

We are home.

Nian Qusheng was slightly taken aback, but the scarlet in his eyes did not fade away. There was more than one wraith manipulating his body at this moment. When Nian Qusheng heard this sentence to go home, his nose was sour and tears were about to fall out.And he seemed to be locked out of some barrier, and he tried his best to slap the barrier, but he couldn't get back to his body.

He shouted in his heart: "Brother, brother! Look at me!"

At that moment, he seemed to have returned to four or five years ago, struggling in the nightmare of Zhenmeng Mountain and unable to wake up.The impenetrable black house was full of blood, and there was a small light on the top of the head. The bloodletting made the eyes dazed and almost died. He struggled desperately with the rattling iron chain on his wrist to resist the wraith, like a tug-of-war, gradually exhausted, Leaning back, the back of his head slammed against the wall, and the sunlight that was almost suffocating came into his eyes.

Outside the wall, there is Jiang Dongshen from the local area, and Nian Quesheng also called his brother heartbreakingly, but no one came to take him away.

He shouted: "Brother! You take me away, I am here!"

He shouted: "Brother... Come and take me home, brother!"

But it was useless, he couldn't make a sound, in that bloody and desperate dream, in today's extremely cruel reality, he tried his best to collide with that barrier, his head was bleeding every time, and every time he felt so painful , but they are all helpless.

But Nian raised the words in his heart to the point of pleading. He wanted to say how much he misses Jiang Dongchen, asked him if he was okay, and wanted him to take him home.But Nian opened his mouth, only endless indifference and ridicule.

"Jiang Dongchen, the person you used to get along day and night is now pointing at you with a sword. Maybe the sword will go through in a while. I have been looking for me for four years in vain. If you don't even have a warm word when you meet, you will die. —— —Do you need me to call you brother before you die? Ha, Jiang Dongchen, do you hate me, you better hate me, spend your whole life chasing me, and don’t let me go when you die. Otherwise, you have spent four years What's the point of working hard, eating and sleeping in the open air."

Jiang Dongshen still had an indifferent expression on his face——this indifference had already been engraved into his bones with the sophistication and sophistication of those who have experienced it.He said: "I don't hate you, even if I die, wake up."

"Jiang Dongshen!" Nian Sheng's eyes were red as if they were about to drip blood, his gaze was as fierce as a blade, and he retracted his long sword half an inch, and shouted sharply: "I will protect you if I fall into the cold water of Beimang and ruin my life! I am not enough!" Do you love me? I’ve been dead for nearly two years—how good it is to die, to be free and happy. But I just can’t let you go, and I have to force myself to live again! But what are you doing, I’m not with you Just be with Yuan Ci and give her a hairpin? You are so gentle, Jiang Dongchen. You are worthy of being a gentle and jade-like master, you can do whatever people ask you to do, and if I come back two years late, do you want to Hold a child and let him call me uncle?"

Jiang Dong frowned heavily, raised his eyes and said, "What do you mean being dead for nearly two years?"

Nian Sheng didn't answer, and the resentful spirit was forcing out all the tiny emotions that had been dusty in his heart for a long time.He laughed twice in self-defeating, his eyes were moist with laughter, and then he said with a wry smile: "Did I disturb you when I came back? Hit the mandarin ducks, right? I have to do something today, not only for you, but also for the reason Ci. I have not killed anyone in my 21 years of promotion, so I have to break this precept today!"

Jiang Dongchen felt a little sad, lowered his eyes, and sighed: "Do you always care about this kind of thing in your heart?"

When he didn't hear the answer, Jiang Dong said again: "If that's the case, I'll tell you what happened in the past few years when I go back, okay? Come back with me..."

Before I finished talking about coming home with me, the face in his hand suddenly stabbed out, and Nian Sheng yelled in his heart no, don't stab him!But it was in vain, the moment the sword blade pierced Jiang Dongshen's heart, Nian Quesheng tried his best to regain control of his body.But only half of it was taken, the sword edge deviated from the heart, but pierced into the left shoulder.But Nian was too late to stop, and the resentful spirit had already pierced Jiang Dongshen's entire left shoulder.

Before Nian Kesheng could react, suddenly the hilt of the sword was out of his hand, and Jiang Dongshen leaned back.Nian Shengsheng rushed forward, but before he had time to help him, Jiang Dongshen had already slumped to the ground, and the tip of his sword slashed fiercely on the ground, making a toothache sound.A high-quality fairy sword, after Jiang Dongshen's back fell to the ground, was shaken out from his left shoulder and fell to the ground with a bang.

Jiang Dongshen's hand also slid down from the blade, throwing out a string of bright blood beads, which splashed on Nian Quesheng's face.The blood in his eyes completely forced back the glaring redness in his eyes, and Nian Kesheng woke up.

He held Jiang Dongshen in his arms.Nian Sheng, who has always been smart and quick-witted, was extremely flustered at this moment, trying in vain to block Jiang Dongshen's bleeding shoulder, and wanted to call his brother, but he couldn't make a sound, and finally said softly: "Wake up... "

No one responded, the long silence seemed to wake him up, he suddenly murmured: "Save people..."

"Save people..." Nian Butsheng became flustered, vainly probing Jiang Dong's deep breath, his whole body was shaken, and he yelled madly in the deserted street, "Save people!! Who Come and call a doctor for me...Xingxi, Xingxi!...Come and save someone,...Xingxi!"

As soon as the words fell, Xing Xi recited the formula and teleported over. Seeing the scene in front of him, he said, "Ancestor, I've been gone for less than half an hour. What the hell are you doing?"

Nian Quesheng is not in the mood to tease him at this moment, Xingxi sees his sad eyes, if it is not because he is holding Jiang Dongchen, maybe he would kneel down for himself at this moment.So he corrected his color, sighed and said: "Okay, then you... pick up Bai Yueguang first. - Ruan Ruan, what are you doing stupidly, come to a portal, go..."

But Nian said: "Go to Qianhuandu."

Xingxi responded, "Qianhuandu."

But when he really stood in front of Qian Huandu's house, Nian Sheng suddenly didn't dare to go in—maybe it was because of the timidity of being close to the hometown, or maybe because he was afraid of seeing the place full of warmth decayed and depressed.But Jiang Dongshen's situation was imminent, but Nian Shengsheng still closed his eyes, leaned sideways and gently knocked open the door.

But the house is not as dusty as imagined, nor as dilapidated as imagined.The whole room is neat and tidy, the bookcases are full of books, and the inkstone paper is neatly placed on the table.If it wasn't for the fact that no one was angry, and the bed was covered with a dust-proof drape, Nian Butsheng almost thought that Jiang Dongchen had been living here all these years.

Xing Xi had never been in this room before, and when he lifted the cover for Nian, he suddenly felt sad, but Nian looked at him and seemed to be in a daze, as if he had thought of someone.

Gently put Jiang Dongchen on the bed, but Nian Sheng stepped aside calmly.

He doesn't know much about medicine, so I'd better leave it to Xingxi.The injury was always caused by himself, but Nian Butsheng blamed himself when he saw it.

Even though Xing Xi has a bad temper and a vicious mouth, when he saw Nian Shengsheng's reaction, he understood very well and didn't bother, and went to check Jiang Dongchen's body by himself.

Nian Quesheng silently retreated to the corner, squatted down almost transparently, and wrapped his arms around himself.

...How many times has he come back these years?

Did he feel sad when he saw everything in this room, did he stay alone for a long time every year on his birthday?Did he... cry for me?

What can he do when he is sad, such a person who does not like to talk, every long night is just like me, and I am afraid that if I don’t sleep this night, I will miss a dream with him, so I force myself to close my eyes , but awake until dawn?

I left without saying goodbye, and stabbed him involuntarily after the reunion.I delayed his great youth for four years... Will he blame me?What if in a fit of rage... he doesn't want me anymore?

Nian Butsheng glanced at Jiang Dongchen who was lying on the bed, and suddenly felt a burst of unreasonable fear, accompanied by self-blame and heartache, and the sour person wanted to cry.

After an unknown amount of time, Xingxi finally straightened up from the bed, and before Xiang Nian turned around, the person squatting in the corner suddenly stood up, rushed to Xingxi, and asked eagerly, "How is he doing?" ?”

Xingxi only frowned, there was nothing on the expression that would make Nian Quesheng feel desperate, Xingxi tilted his head and said: "It's okay. —— Your usual injuries are much more serious than this, why haven't I seen you like this?" A strong desire to survive."

Nian Quesheng exclaimed, "How can it be the same!"

How can that be the same, I like him so much.

Xingxi complained that his ears were deaf to you, and then said: "Just after you came out of the cold water, you were very happy and said that you would give him a huge hug, so you made a promise. Hey, what's going on now? Accidentally stabbed him with a sword?"

It was the first time for Nian to feel such shame. He lowered his head and blamed himself to Xingxi, who was still a little shorter than him: "The wraith... commits suicide."

Hearing these four words, Xing Xi couldn't laugh anymore.

After a while, he said in a low voice: "There are so many resentful spirits in your body, why did you do this?"

But Nian said: "There is a master controller, and the rest are all assistants."

Xingxi pondered and said: "That's right, I haven't gained control in your body for so many years, and you have used it in the end. It is understandable to want to kill someone you love before committing suicide. ——So there is no resentment in your body now Yeah?"

Nian Butsheng nodded: "Yes."

"That's great." Xingxi said, "From then on, you can just adjust Jiang Dongchen's breath yourself, and save me from coming over every day. You really don't worry."

But Nian Sheng lowered his head and asked, "What happened to him?"

Xingxi glanced at Jiang Dongchen, and said, "His spiritual power has collapsed, do you know that?"

When Nian Quesheng heard the words, he lost his voice and yelled, "Spiritual power collapsed?!"

"Ah." Xing Xi still looked very meaningless, as if he didn't know what the consequences of the collapse of spiritual power would be, "Let me just say, the year you just woke up, didn't you always feel spiritual?" The force flows to you? The natural barrier of cold water interferes too much, and you can't feel it yourself, so I defaulted to thinking that the spiritual power of the cold water barrier itself affected you. Now that I think about it, it should be Jiang Dongchen It’s a spiritual protection. After so many years, it’s no wonder it doesn’t collapse.”

Nian Qusheng's face showed a painful guilt for a moment, and he murmured: "He...has opened spiritual protection for me for four years, and has been looking for me for four years. I...what have I done... ..."

It was rare for Xingxi to comfort someone, so he raised his hand and patted Nian Butsheng on the shoulder: "I can't blame you entirely. You are unique in being able to regain your sanity and destroy them when the resentful spirits commit suicide. Power is great."

But Nian Sheng ignored Xingxi's teasing mood at all, and asked, "Is there anything you can do? Let... let Dongchen return to his original state, what is the price, it's all on me."

Xingxi clicked his tongue: "He's happy when you die, right? Why is this elm-headed? You have to change your life for another. You've read too many folk stories, my friend. Who am I—a fairy in the world? Xingxi! Can you have some confidence in me?"

But Nian raised his eyes, they lit up, and asked, "Really?"

"Really." Xing Xi said, "I'll go back to the sky to get some medicinal materials. Let him take care of it slowly. Your spiritual power has recovered for more than a year, and Jiang Dongchen will also need to recover for a while. But in the past few years He has a serious loss of spiritual power, and he was injured by a high-grade fairy weapon. You don’t know how long this sleep will last. You just have to wait. Make medicine for him every day to adjust his breathing. —— He can hear you when you speak, so please repent. guilt."

Saying that, Xingxi walked towards the door, knelt down and before he finished drawing the teleportation formation, he suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, you activate your spiritual power transmission and forcefully suppress his transmission. His obsession is too deep, I can't get involved, and I can't turn off the spiritual protection."

As soon as the words fell, Xingxi disappeared.

By the time everything settled down, it was already dark.Xingxi threw the pile of herbs into the side room, told Nian Quesheng what to do, and then left, throwing a formula to Nian Quesheng to tell him about something.Then the house that had been as warm as the sun four years ago fell silent like death.

Nian Quesheng gave Jiang Dongchen medicine, put the bowl aside, lifted the hem of his shirt, and knelt down beside the bed.

The eyes of the person lying in front of him were reflected in Nian Qusheng's eyes after four years.The youthfulness faded away, the childishness faded away, even falling asleep with a tough look.All of this reminds Nian Qusheng that during the four years of absence from each other, they have grown up.

No longer a child, no longer a simple teenager who can't live without missing each other for a day or two.Even though this reunion was cruel, in all fairness, they were still calm.

There was no hysteria, no hoarseness, and when we met face to face after a long absence, he didn't shed a single tear.

Nian raised and lowered his eyes.

Then he said: "Things of these years. Let me...tell you."
