Kaifeng Bistro

Tan Zhifeng turned his head to look, and the first thing he saw was Taotie's terrifying eyeless face emerging from a cloud of black air, his big mouth that could swallow Tan Zhifeng opened suddenly, and the corners of his mouth were dripping with mucus. Answering the saliva, with a terrible stench, rushed towards the direction where Tan Zhifeng was standing...

Tan Zhifeng backed away quickly, but Taotie's huge body was more sensitive than he imagined. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a similar black light surged in front of him, blocking Taotie's footsteps.

"Let's go, we are not their opponents." Bo Zong stepped on Taotie's back and said to Taotie.He turned his head to look at Tan Zhifeng, although his eyes were blurred but persistent, he stretched out his big hand towards Tan Zhifeng: "Zhifeng, come with me...".Before he finished speaking, soft feathers flew across Tan Zhifeng's head, and Tan Zhifeng suddenly felt a pair of powerful hands grab his back, and suddenly lifted him up.In an instant, his feet were off the ground, and away from Bo and Taotie. Amid the howling wind, he watched the black air engulfing the monster and the huge figure on his back stepping across the bamboo forest like a huge black meteorite. Go outside the temple and run all the way to Nanxun Gate.

Zhifeng opened his eyes in fear, but saw a scene that he will never forget.In front of him was a round full moon emitting bright soft white light. The blue bird took him straight to the moon, and the white moon had already filled his entire field of vision. He had a feeling that they might Pass through the shining white light in front of you and enter another strange and wonderful world.

However, at this moment, he vaguely saw a bluish-black shadow floating on the edge of the moon. This shadow was like a faint floating cloud, hovering in the air, slowly approaching them.

Thousands of thoughts kept surging in Tan Zhifeng's mind, his heart was beating like a drum, and he raised his head incoherently and said to Qingniao: "Then...there...I, can you take me there?"

With a long chirp, the blue bird flapped its wings across the full moon and flew towards the mysterious dim moon shadow.Tan Zhifeng raised his hand and pressed on his chest desperately, still feeling as if his heart was about to jump out.When he got close, two huge wings suddenly emerged from the black shadow. With a light flap, a pair of eyes looked at him tenderly under the half-dark moonlight, and the dragon scales shone with a gloomy but majestic look. shimmer.

As the blue bird got closer and closer, Tan Zhifeng realized that there was a dull, ordinary-looking copper sword in the dragon's mouth.Tan Zhifeng will never forget this sword.But he never thought that he would see it and Ying Long again at such a time.

In an instant, the entire city and the vast land on the ground seemed to no longer exist. Tan Zhifeng landed lightly on Yinglong's back. Seeing the blue bird gracefully spin and turn away, he leaned down and leaned against the familiar and wide open space. Between the dragon's wings, his eyes were already filled with tears, and when he pressed his face against the dragon's neck, drops fell and seeped into the blue-black scales.

The night wind whistled past Tan Zhifeng's ears, but he felt that his surroundings were extremely quiet.Suddenly, for some reason, he remembered the two poems that Bai Yutang recited when he rode his horse to Tianqing Temple, and he couldn't help repeating: "Walk in that cypress boat, and ride in his current."

The giant dragon whimpered softly from under him, and in Tan Zhifeng's heart, another deep voice suddenly echoed him:

"Gen Geng can't sleep, if there is any hidden worry."

"Small me without wine, travel with Ao."

……

"Ying Long, I..." For a moment the wind blew up, Tan Zhifeng felt that what he was about to say had been lost in the night wind, only the echoes of the two of them just now were still echoing in his heart, as if a stone fell into a peaceful place On the surface of the lake, there were waves of ripples that continued to expand on the lake water.His thin chest seemed to be unable to bear so many memories, and his heart seemed to be constantly expanding and about to burst.He recalled the days when he walked with Ying Long in the mountains and canyons with clouds and rain. At that time, he himself was just a breeze, full of curiosity about everything in the world.He stared intently at the mountains, rivers and land under his feet, but never thought that one day he would be in it, to feel and live so truly, he felt his own fear and love, just as he felt the passage of time and the helplessness of life ——This is a feeling that can only be felt by a person who has truly existed. For him, all of these are priceless and precious.

Just now he was terribly excited, but when they were close together, he felt a peace and peace in his heart that he had never had before.At this moment, he realized that after the reunion, no matter what the reason was, even just one day of separation again would be so painful and unbearable for him.

The wind stopped, and he leaned down beside the dragon's horn again and murmured: "...I have a heart that cannot be changed. I have a heart that cannot be moved. Ying Long...really...is that you?"

The dragon's back under him became warm, and the dragon's body kept shaking.It tilted its neck slightly, as if it wanted to look back at Tan Zhifeng, but because of the huge sword in its mouth, he didn't look back in the end, but just waved his wings lightly, gathering the thin clouds of the night in the sky around himself and Tan Zhifeng, until their The figure was hidden in the clouds, and the misty clouds had just risen in the wind, passed the quiet and beautiful full moon, and flew slowly towards the silent Kaifeng city on the ground, with only a few sporadic lights.

Almost all of the lush bamboo forest in Tianqing Temple was razed to the ground.Wen Hui held his forehead with one hand, and sat helplessly watching the monks busily tidying up the battlefield.Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao came out alone, carrying a young man who had lost his senses. "This guy is really unlucky, I don't know why he came here at this time!" Bai Yutang threw Chen Qing in front of Wen Hui: "Master, I'll leave it to you."

Zhan Zhao also said: "Although this person seems to be unharmed, he was quite frightened, and I don't know if the monster did some evil tricks on him. He still hasn't woken up. Please ask Master to check his injuries."

Wen Hui nodded to Zhan Zhao, and then looked at Bai Yutang again: "Oh!" He sighed: "You unfilial apprentice, you turned my place upside down as soon as you came back, without even an apology. You are Is this how you repay your master and me?"

Bai Yutang sat down at the side carelessly: "Master, master, as I said earlier, your realm is beyond my reach forever, and I don't want to cultivate immortality, I just want to..." He glanced at Zhan Zhao, Coughed, and said: "I just want to be a free person. You feel bored, and you want me to repay you. I will put this royal cat in your Tianqing Temple to catch mice for you. Look at the gate of the temple. Look at it." How about it?"

"Okay." Wen Hui signaled Zhan Zhao to put Chen Qing on the ground, and replied casually: "As long as you are willing." After finishing speaking, he leaned over to check Chen Qing's face: "He's fine, he will be fine when the time comes." Woke up. However, Taotie can swallow everything, why didn’t he hurt him at all this time... This... This is a bit strange..."

Bai Yutang stood up leisurely: "That's good, then I'm leaving."

"Where are you going?!" Wen Hui and Zhan Zhao asked at the same time.

"Of course I have my own things to do." Bai Yutang glanced at Zhan Zhao, "I've already made an agreement with Master, you stay here for me to honor his old man."

"I..." Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang at a loss, then at Wen Hui: "Of course I'm at the master's disposal, but can you stay in Kaifeng for two more days?"

"Stay for two more days? It depends on my mood." Bai Yutang glanced contentedly at Zhan Zhao's anxious look, and was about to leave when he suddenly looked around and asked, "Hey, where's Zhifeng?"

Wen Hui smiled and stood up: "Look, they are there."

The three of them looked up together, and saw that the clouds and mist cleared at the end of the bamboo forest, and Xu Gan walked over through the mist holding Tan Zhifeng's hand.Holding a huge bronze sword in his hand, Xu Gan was wearing a dark blue long gown, tightly pulling Tan Zhifeng by his side, and walked towards them step by step.

"Xu Gan...?" Bai Yutang's expression changed slightly: "What's wrong with him, he's back again?"

"Aren't you back too?" Wen Hui smiled at him, Bai Yutang blushed slightly, and stopped talking.

Tan Zhifeng walked up to him, looked at Wen Hui, and then at Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao. Wen Hui's eyes swept over the two of them. Although he was a little surprised, he quickly regained his composure, but Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao were stunned for a moment. They were all dumbfounded. "So you..." Bai Yutang leaned over to look at Tan Zhifeng carefully for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "So this is what you really look like, Zhifeng."

"That's right, 'Brother Wu', you didn't expect it, right? I, like you, had to do something to avoid being recognized by my old friends." Tan Zhifeng deliberately teased Bai Yutang.He found that he had lost all his spiritual power for a while, so he simply stopped hiding his original appearance, and now that Ying Long had recovered his memory, and Bo knew of his existence, he might not have much to do if he kept it secret. Apart from his spiritual power, it has no meaning anymore.

Xu Yan gave a slight nod to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, and walked straight to Wen Hui. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Xu Yan said, "Nurse, why are you dressed like this?"

At this time, Tan Zhifeng saw for the first time that Wen Hui's usually smiling face showed a trace of helplessness: "Oh, do you think I want to be a monk? But if you continue to cultivate in Zhongshan, why bother with this muddy water?"

Xu Gan gave a soft "hmm", stopped talking, and pulled Tan Zhifeng out of the bamboo forest.Wen Hui called him from behind: "Hey, wait, you... Did you see any visions along the way? Also, how did you bring back this Kunwu Excalibur, and Northwest...?"

"I'm tired, let's talk about it another day." Xu Gan put his hand on Tan Zhifeng's shoulder, and continued walking without looking back.Tan Zhifeng could only turn around and shout to them: "Brother Zhan, Brother Bai, Master Wen Hui, we... we're leaving first... welcome... come to the tavern another day..."

The two of them walked to the side of the Tianqing Temple Buddhist Hall, and the full moon that was close in front of them was now hanging high above the eaves of the solemn Buddhist Temple, sprinkling a piece of brilliance on the peaceful land.Tan Zhifeng raised his head and looked at Xu Gan's side face, only to feel that his appearance had undergone slight changes in just one day, as if he was a little colder and more majestic than before.But when Tan Zhifeng looked at him, Xu Gan suddenly stopped, turned sideways and lowered his head to look at Tan Zhifeng, his eyes were filled with soft brilliance for a moment, and Tan Zhifeng couldn't help holding his breath.

At this time, all the monks in the temple are busy in the bamboo forest behind, and the place is quiet as if isolated from the world, the feeling of flying in the air just now is a bit unreal, one thought after another flashed in his mind—Xu Gan—— Dragon - did he really remember everything?where did he goWhat should they do next?What is he...

Xu Yan leaned down, their cheeks touched, Tan Zhifeng's heart thumped uncontrollably, it felt like just now when his face was pressed against the warm dragon's neck, after a moment of dizziness, both of them felt Feeling a hot current spread rapidly from that small piece of skin, they desperately wanted to go but didn't know how to get closer to each other than at this moment, so they could only stand quietly like this, feeling each other's pulse.They had never been in such close contact before, but only at this moment, Tan Zhifeng really felt the hearts of the two of them beating in harmony with each other, and he knew that Ying Long had really returned.

Finally, as if Xu Yan had made up his mind, he turned slightly to one side, pressed his hot lips against Tan Zhifeng's cheeks, and leaned down gently. Everything he saw came to his mind, but he didn't know how to deal with it, so he could only close his eyes tightly.But at this moment, the sound of messy footsteps suddenly came from the back of the hall: "Hurry up, the abbot told me to carry this scholar away, but where should I send him... Hey, there are two people over there, you two?" , come over and help!"

Tan Zhifeng opened his eyes suddenly, and saw a few monks carrying Chen Qing to this side, but they were soon stopped in fright by Xu Gan's inexplicable anger: "Uh... this benefactor, I don't know if you two are here, here... I'm disturbing you!"

Tan Zhifeng tugged at Xu Gan's sleeve, and said to those people, "Oh, send him home? I know where he lives..."

Xu Gan glanced at them indifferently, and then at the gradually turning pale sky.Tan Zhifeng already looked very tired, and his hands were cold. "Come with me." Xu Gan said to them.

The few monks made sure that Xu Gan had no objection to this, so they put Chen Qing on their backs and followed them to the temple gate.

After leaving Tianqing Temple, Xu Gan slowed down and let the two walk in front.After staring at Chen Qing's back for a while, his gloomy face suddenly softened a little, and he turned his head to Tan Zhifeng and said, "Chen Yuwan's own name is so vulgar, but he gave his son a good name."

"What?" Tan Zhifeng hadn't recovered from the shock brought to him by the close contact between the two of them just now, and was a little dazed when asked by Xu Yan: "Chen Qing, isn't this a very simple name?" ?”

"Qingqing Zijin, take my time." Xu Yan muttered in a deep voice, and then he looked at Tan Zhifeng with a faint smile on his face, only then did Tan Zhifeng understand what he meant.

Tan Zhifeng blushed and turned his head away, but Xu Yan then said softly: "Qingqing Zijin, take care of my heart. Even if I don't go, Zining won't say anything?...

Qingqingzipei, I think for a while.Even if I don't go, Zining won't come?

Xi Xi pick up in the city of Xi Que.Not seeing each other for a day is like March..."

Holding hands tightly together, the two walked towards the familiar Wheat Straw Lane along the bluestone road gradually glowing with a reddish morning glow.
