Sai, watching the two get out of the car helplessly, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and ran out of the car.
The four seasons turned to autumn, and the mountains were quite cold, but the fresh air made people feel refreshed. Xi Ran stretched his waist, brushed his messy hair, and dragged Jiang Yan to a trot on the winding mountain road.
His physical strength was better than Jiang Yan had imagined, even running for an hour without him panting, Jiang Yan remembered that when he was still Ruan Xiqing, he could hold him for a long time with one hand.
The road gradually extended to a lively place, and a whole row of buildings appeared around it. Residential houses and shops were mixed together, and the terminal of minibuses was also nearby.
When the two arrived at the terminal, the minibus was also late. Xi Ran bought a bottle of mineral water at the canteen nearby and asked about the situation of the hotel.
After Xi Ran drank a few sips of water, he handed the mineral water bottle to Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan stood on the side of the road drinking water, watching the passengers getting out of the car one after another. He noticed that there was no Wu Daming in the car, and thought of Wu Daming Maybe he also got out of the car at that time. He is a local, and maybe he took the trail.
There is no hotel in the mountains, but there is a small sanatorium where you can stay for a night or two with some money with your ID card.
Dusk was over, and the sky was getting dark. The two of them saw that it was not early, so they went to the nursing home first. The nursing home was newly built, and the decoration was relatively new, but there were not many residents. There were only one or two old people sitting and chatting in the yard.
As soon as the two walked in, a staff member came to inquire. After Jiang Yan explained his purpose, the lady took them to the office.
"My surname is Fang, and I'm the logistics director here. You can just call me Sister Fang. How long do you plan to stay?" Director Fang asked them, taking out the registration book from the drawer.
Xi Ran smiled and said, "We're here on weekends for vacation, and we'll only stay for two days."
Director Fang saw that he was good-looking, clean and smiling, so he had a good impression of the two of them, and said with a smile: "We don't have any rules here, just don't quarrel with the elderly, nothing else, you take your ID card Come out and I'll leave a copy."
Xi Ran nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, we won't cause you any trouble."
"It doesn't matter, we occasionally have tourists here. The room rate is like this. Our nursing home collects it in the name of love. You can see that all the money will be registered and then used to add things to the elderly. You Although there are not many elderly people living in our nursing home, there are still many left-behind elderly people living in their homes in this mountain. We have to visit them every day. In fact, the workload is not small, and there are many places to spend money. Come, Sign here."
Jiang Yan listened expressionlessly, not knowing what she meant, but Xi Ran could understand that he didn't bring much cash when he went out, so he took out his wallet to check, ordered 2000 yuan from it, and directly Gave it to Director Fang.
Director Fang was slightly stunned. She really hoped that the two of them would pay more for the room, but she didn't expect that the other party would give so much two thousand directly. The shortage of funds in the sanatorium was due to the shortage of funds on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was due to the tourists from the past. Some stayed for a week for only two or three hundred, and water and electricity were also money, which would cause trouble to the nursing home. Director Fang was afraid that this would happen again, so he put pressure on the two of them verbally.
She took the money and said embarrassedly: "This is too polite. On behalf of the nursing home, I thank you two for your love."
"It should be." Xi Ran was still smiling, and he didn't mean to be unhappy at all. Director Fang happily stuffed him with a small bag of Tangerines, and even opened a high-class room for the two of them.
Xi Ran followed Director Fang upstairs, and asked about Acacia Lake by the way.
Director Fang said bluntly: "I'm not a local either. I just married here after graduation. Otherwise, you can ask the old people nearby tomorrow. They might know."
Xi Ran thanked him, and pulled Jiang Yan into the door.
The room has a bathroom and simple daily necessities. It faces south and you can see the rolling hills as soon as you open the window.
Standing by the window, Jiang Yan breathed the pure air in the mountains and fields. He closed his eyes, feeling the ethereal and weak spiritual energy surge between the heaven and the earth.
Xi Ran washed his hands and sat on the sofa to peel the sugar oranges. He peeled five oranges in a row and placed them neatly on the napkin. Then he waved to Jiang Yan and said, "Come and eat the little oranges."
Jiang Yan didn't even raise his hand, sat down beside him, and opened his mouth skillfully.
Yuelaotan ([-])
The moon is bright and clear, the sky is filled with stars, and the bright moonlight shines down, dancing with swarms of fireflies.
Jiang Yan took Xi Ran's hand and walked on the uneven mountain depression. He walked very slowly, for fear that Xi Ran would accidentally fall, but Xi Ran walked as fast as walking on flat ground, humming a song, and using his eyes from time to time Urge Jiang Yan to hurry up.
Jiang Yan smiled helplessly, and chanted a spell in his mouth. Suddenly, snow fell in the mountains and forests. The snowflakes fell from the sky and disappeared as soon as they touched the soil. Still wonderful.
Xi Ran opened his eyes wide in surprise, running happily in the forest, Jiang Yan slowly followed behind him, and said to him: "It snowed heavily the day I first saw you, and then I The day I saw you in Junhua was also snowing heavily, Penglai has no four seasons, and it never snows, when it really snows in winter, let's build a snowman together."
Xi Ran stopped in his tracks, turned around and smiled at him. The moonlight fell behind him, illuminating the winding path. It's a deal."
Jiang Yan approached him, brushed off the broken snow from his shoulders, and said in a gentle voice: "You have always taken care of me more. I don't know how to take care of others, but I want to treat you better. If there is something wrong with me in the future , you just tell me, don't be sulking, and don't ignore me."
Xi Ran could hear the grievance in his tone. Sometimes he really felt that Jiang Yan was a little childish. Although he was tall and had strong facial features, he always lost his temper like a child. Intestine, honesty is a headache, but he still thinks Jiang Yan like this is very likable, they can rely on each other, take care of each other, and become the closest people in the world.
Xi Ran pursed his lips and smiled, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't think about what happened a few days ago, I'm not angry anymore."
Jiang Yan nodded and said, "Don't be jealous."
Xi Ran: "..."
Seeing that he suddenly lost his smile, Jiang Yan kissed his lips flatteringly, took his hand and continued to walk forward.
The two walked through a small forest, and gradually came to a cliff. When Jiang Yan came, he asked the peach blossom essence in the mountain, and learned that there was a cliff in Yuehua Mountain, and a ten-meter-long iron chain bridge was built between the cliffs. Acacia Lake was in the woods opposite the cliff. Among them, this is not a secret in Yuehua Mountain. The local old people know the existence of Acacia Lake, but the chain bridge shakes badly and is in disrepair for a long time. It is very dangerous. The local people do not allow children to play here. No one mentioned Acacia Lake anymore.
When Jiang Yan walked to the cliff, he found that the four corners of the chain bridge were broken. Although it still connected the two ends of the cliff, the bridge tilted very sharply. If you want to cross the bridge, you must be prepared to risk your life.
The iron pile was deeply rooted in the ground, and now the chain was broken, leaving only one head embedded in the ground. Jiang Yan squatted down at the iron pile and touched the smooth and neat cut. It was cut off by someone, but the man only cut off one iron post, but left one end.
Xi Ran also realized that something was wrong, and murmured: "Some people don't want us to pass. Most people will not take the risk of crossing the bridge when they see that the bridge is tilted."
"He didn't want us to cross the bridge, but he left a way out for himself." Jiang Yan bent the corner of his mouth meaningfully, "Leave him alone, we'll go there first."
Xi Ran asked: "Then how do we go...to..." Before he finished speaking, he felt his eyes flicker, and the scene in front of him turned to the opposite side of the cliff.
The forest is not big, and the location of Acacia Pool is very conspicuous. Although it is quite famous because of the story of Yue Lao, it is still just an inconspicuous small pool, surrounded by a pile of rocks, mossy, and sparrows occasionally land on the ground. Step on the edge of the pool and sip a few sips of water.
Jiang Yan asked Xi Ran to wait for a while, then turned around and jumped into the pool. It is rumored that Zhongyue veteran put the brocade box where the sachet was stored at the bottom of the pool.
He searched around the bottom of the pool, and found a box between the rocks. When he was holding the box and was about to surface, a foot loomed at the bottom of the water, and that foot was hidden behind a big rock. The red embroidered cloth shoes and a small part of the ankle were exposed.
Jiang Yan put the box away and swam towards that foot. He walked around the stone and saw a dead body in a hidden corner!
It was a young woman, in her twenties like a flower, her eyes were closed peacefully, her limbs were tied with ropes and fixed on a stone. She had obviously been dead for a long time, but her body was intact without any decay.
Jiang Yan slowly stretched out his hand to cover his celestial spirit cover, he was surprised to find that although the woman was dead, her soul still remained in her body.
"Jiang Yan! Are you okay? If you can't find it, come up." Xi Ran's anxious call came faintly through the water, and Jiang Yan ignored the corpse and immediately surfaced.
Xi Ran suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He squatted by the water and reached out his hand to Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan came out of the pool. He lowered his head and shook the water beads from his hair. After approaching Xi Ran, he said, "I'm covered in water."
Xi Ran wiped the water off his face with a tissue, and said while wiping, "Go back and take a shower and change your clothes. If you can't find it, don't look for it." He suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, and stared at Jiang. Yan asked with a glance, "Why don't you use spells to dry it?"
Jiang Yan still lowered his head, water drops slipped from his temples, hitting his strong chest drop by drop, he wiped away the moisture from his nose with his fingertips, and said seriously: "I like the way you wipe my face. "
Xi Ran was angry and funny, "Stop making trouble, and dry yourself off quickly."
Jiang Yan used the spell to instantly dry his body. He took out the black brocade box he found in the water, and couldn't wait to go back to the nursing home, so he opened it while standing by the pool.
The black box body is dotted with plum blossom patterns, and the outside is stained with water, but the inside of the box is dry without any moisture, but there is nothing inside.
Jiang Yan frowned angrily, closed the box and threw it into the water.
A picture flashed before Xi Ran's eyes, Jiang Yan's throwing action seemed familiar to him, but he couldn't remember where he saw it.
Seeing him staring at the water surface dully, Jiang Yan quickly said, "Maybe it was taken away by someone else, don't be sad, I'll find you a better token of love."
Xi Ran came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I'm not sad, no matter whether there is a token of love or not, we will not be separated."
"How about that, you deserve the best." Jiang Yan glanced at the water, and murmured, "Maybe you can ask her."
Xi Ran followed her gaze and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"A body."
Xi Ran thought he was joking, and comforted him: "Just treat it as a trip, go back, I'm sleepy."
"Are you sleepy?" Jiang Yan touched his face, turned and squatted down, "Come on, I'll carry you on my back."
Xi Ran made a few casual excuses, but Jiang Yan took it seriously, he slowly climbed onto Jiang Yan's back, put his arms around his neck and said: "This kind of time seems to be stolen, next time I will lose my memory again I will forget you from time to time, but it doesn’t matter, as long as you appear by my side, I will still like you as always.”
He seemed to be really tired, his voice gradually weakened, and his breathing became long and regular.
Jiang Yan turned his face, and saw Xi Ran leaning on his shoulder and fell asleep, his thick eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyelids, and he murmured: "Yan'er."
Jiang Yan's heart skipped a beat, even though Xi Ran would forget their experiences again and again, but his body would eventually leave imprints, those memories were hidden deep in his soul, waiting to break out of the ground that moment.
*****
Yuehua Mountain produces tea, and the locals also love to drink tea. There are several small teahouses near the nursing home, usually where local old people play chess and read newspapers. A long bench.
The teahouse also offers morning noodles, and the toppings are relatively simple. Jiang Yan and Xi Ran chose one to go in, ordered a pot of tea and two bowls of noodles, seeing that the weather was fine and the sun was warm, they paid the money and chose a seat outside to sit down.
Not long after, the boss came out with the noodles, two bowls of fragrant shredded pork noodles with pickled vegetables, a layer of toppings, and greasy poached eggs lying on top,
After Jiang Yan ate his noodles, he suddenly talked about the past.
"I used to like to eat sauced beef, which is the kind in the cold vegetable shop. You think their beef is not good enough. Every weekend, you will give me the stewed beef in sauce. The beef is cut into thin slices, and a few poached eggs are fried, and finally boiled. A little noodles, I have to eat a big bowl every time, sometimes I also cook beef brisket noodles, I like it too, as long as it is cooked by you, it is delicious."
Xi Ran laughed when he heard that, and said: "No wonder your junior brother always asks me to cook beef noodles. Did he often eat my cooked noodles then?"
"No." Jiang Yan took it for granted, "Why should you give him the noodles you cooked for me?"
Xi Ran looked at him dumbfounded: "It's so delicious, it's nonsense."
"Everything you cook is delicious, and I love it."
Wu Daming happened to pass by here, and heard two foreigners talking at the door of the small teahouse. He took a closer look and it turned out to be the two from yesterday. head, looking straight at him.
Wu Daming smiled dryly.
Jiang Yan raised the corners of his lips, but his eyes were as cold as a chilling wind, "Brother Wu, what a coincidence, I met you again, if you don't mind, come over and have a sip of tea."
Wu Daming walked over with a smile, exchanged pleasantries with the two, pulled the bench and sat down, and asked, "How are you two playing? Have you found the Acacia Lake?"
Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Don't rush to talk about Acacia Lake, Brother Wu, what do you think of the story about Yuelao I told you yesterday?"
"Uh, ups and downs, it's good."
Jiang Yan poured him a cup of tea and said slowly, "Then I will tell you a new story today."
Yuelaotan ([-])
Wu Daming was puzzled and said, "What story does the big brother want to tell me?"
"We went to the chain bridge last night. One of the iron piles was broken. The body of the chain bridge, which was already swaying, tilted, and ordinary people couldn't pass it."
Wu Daming held the teacup, his eyes flashed involuntarily.
Jiang Yan continued: "Fortunately, it's still possible to surpass others, but it's just a little more dangerous. We went to the opposite cliff and found the rumored Acacia Lake."
Wu Daming's face changed slightly, he smiled dryly and said, "Well, I haven't been there before, what's the matter, did you find the sachet?"
Jiang Yan shook his head and said: "I jumped into the pool, but I didn't find the sachet, but I saw the corpse of a woman. The woman's body was not decomposed, and she was tied with hemp rope and fixed beside a big rock. Suddenly, I thought of a rumor. It is said that there is a nation left over from the ancient times. They have the ability to resurrect from the dead. After people die, they soak them in water. In the first few years, their flesh and internal organs gradually melted, revealing the original bones. Gradually, their bodies will grow new flesh and blood. After 81, one day their bodies will glow red. Under the moonlight, it's like a pool of water has changed color. I saw Acacia When looking at the corpse in the pool, I suddenly thought of this rumor, and also thought of Meiniang's death."
Jiang Yan stopped, and under Wu Daming's pale complexion, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea slowly, and continued: "I also thought of the chain bridge that was broken at one end. That woman was trapped on the opposite cliff. After all, the method of resurrection is quite strange. In this case, why don't I help that person, so when I left yesterday, I also broke the iron pile on the other end, and simply broke the chain bridge , From now on, clean up, no more involvement."
Wu Daming's expression changed drastically, he stood up abruptly, and accidentally overturned the bench under his feet.
Jiang Yan said lightly: "Brother Wu's complexion doesn't look very good, let's drink some more tea." He picked up the teapot and refilled Wu Daming's cup.
Wu Daming's Adam's apple rolled, and he watched the boiling tea slide into the cup blankly. The heat was overflowing, and the sound of water suddenly made him feel deaf and dizzy. Jiang Yan put the teapot back on the table, and when the bottom of the pot touched the table, there was a dull ring.
This muffled sound brought Wu Daming back to his senses. He rubbed his palms on the side of his trousers uncomfortably, wiped away the sweat from his palms, and said dryly: "I still have something to do, so I won't drink the tea, both of you." See you soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, he left the teahouse as if fleeing.
Xi Ran asked inexplicably, "What happened to him?"
Jiang Yan took a sip of tea, and Fang asked, "Is the noodles ready? If it's ready, let's go and see."
After Wu Daming left the teahouse, he ran towards the cliff like crazy. He only thought that Jiang Yan was lying to him, but even so, he couldn't feel at ease if he didn't take a look with his own eyes.
Panting, he ran to the edge of the cliff. The chain bridge hangs in the air in a state of natural drooping, and the opposite cliff that used to be close at hand is now out of reach.
Wu Daming grabbed his hair angrily and fell to the ground, muttering: "Impossible, that guy must have lied to me, ahhh!! I'm going to kill you!!!"
Jiang Yan's voice suddenly appeared behind him, and said coldly, "Stand up."
Wu Daming turned his head back in panic, he stumbled up and asked through gritted teeth, "Who the hell are you guys!"
Jiang Yan approached him slowly, and suddenly knelt down beside him.
Wu Daming looked at Jiang Yan in confusion, but saw him holding up a wounded sparrow in the grass. He gently stroked the sparrow's head, and then threw it into the air. Wings, free to cry and fly.
Jiang Yan twirled the dust on his fingertips, and said lightly: "It takes 81 years to be resurrected, but Yuelao has only survived [-] years. The day he goes to heaven is when Mei Niang wakes up. Sending the sachet back to Acacia Lake is to tell Mei Niang that he has not changed his original intention and is willing to wait here forever."
Wu Daming said powerlessly: "The truth of the rumor has nothing to do with us. To be honest, the pair of sachets were rumored to have been taken away thousands of years ago. I cut down the chain bridge just to prevent you from disturbing the Acacia Lake." My wife, who are you, why do you insist on forcing me to a desperate situation?"
Jiang Yan looked at him silently, and chanted a spell towards the iron chain bridge. The drooping iron chain bridge was slowly lifted up, climbed up the cliff little by little, and returned to its original position.
Wu Daming looked at him in astonishment, his body was too shocked to move.
Jiang Yan said: "Go and see your wife, she is still lying in the pool."
Wu Daming was full of questions, but he didn't want to ask anything now. He just wanted to rush to the opposite cliff to meet his wife. He turned around and ran, stepping on the chain bridge and rushing to the opposite cliff.
Xi Ran watched the excitement for a while, and waited for Wu Daming to leave before he asked, "Why did you cut down the chain bridge to scare him? It's related to the sachet?"
Jiang Yan shook his head: "It's okay."
"Then why did you..."
Jiang Yan said expressionlessly, "He looks like a bad guy."
Xi Ran chuckled: "Wu Daming doesn't seem to know how honest he is, how can he look like a bad guy?"
Jiang Yan replied: "He doesn't blush when he lies."
"Yeah, you are the most real." Xi Ran glanced at him, "Let's go, let's go to another place."
Jiang Yan nodded and said: "The technique of resurrection is heresy. God will not give them a long life easily. Many of their clansmen would rather die like ordinary people than be reborn repeatedly, so I was a little worried yesterday and wanted to see What's going on with this Wu Daming?" He took Xi Ran's hand and walked back slowly.
Xi Ran thought for a while before saying: "How can you explain the relationship clearly, as long as you can stay together, no matter how much you pay, it's not a pity. Didn't Mei Niang lie in the water for 81 years because of Yuelao? "
Jiang Yan stopped in his tracks and said in a deep voice: "Yuelao has guarded Xiangsitan for 80 years, but his lifespan has come to an end before the last moment. This is the price for Mei Niang's resurrection. The world has its own rules. If If you go against the sky and mess with the way of heaven, you will naturally be punished, this is the so-called retribution."
Xi Ran was puzzled and asked: "What did Yuelao do wrong? Why did he have to wait for 80 years?"
"He didn't do anything wrong, don't forget that he ascended to immortality in the end." Jiang Yan said, "Yuelao's ascension to immortality sounds easy, but in fact it is not. Being able to become immortal in 80 years is already a gift from heaven. "
Xi Ran's face was a bit tangled, he glanced at Jiang Yan, and said slowly: "If it were me, I would rather not be a god, but be with Mei Niang."
"His lifespan is over, and he will go down to the underworld to be reincarnated in the world. After drinking Meng Po soup, he will forget about Mei Niang. There is no such thing as the best of both worlds in this world. He and Mei Niang have no destiny in the first place."
Xi Ran curled his lips and said: "It's good to be a moon elder, and you can also connect with lovers."
*****
The young man sat on the stone, crossed his knees and looked at the old man curiously.
The old man cleverly conjured a grasshopper and handed it to the young man.
The young man blinked and asked in confusion, "What is this?"
"It's a grasshopper."
"What is a grasshopper?"
"The grasshopper is a small animal on earth."
The young man picked up the grasshopper and looked at it for a while, tilted his head and blinked his eyes and asked, "Why doesn't it move?"
The old man hesitated, "This..."
Jiang Yan saw himself blowing on the grasshopper, and the grasshopper came to life immediately, jumping around in the grass.
The young man laughed happily: "It moved, look at the little stone, the little animal moved."
The old man quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, little masters, that's not the case. This is a made-up grasshopper, so it won't move."
The young man pursed his lips and asked, "Then why?"
The old man didn't know how to answer, so he could only sigh leisurely.
The young man sniffed and said pitifully, "There are only three of us in Penglai, so it's meaningless."
The old man thought about it, and said kindly: "Little master, don't be sad, I will take you to the world for a walk."
The scene changed, and the three of them appeared by the stream.
The young man turned his head slowly, and Jiang Yan saw his appearance clearly.
It was Xi Ran, Ruan Xiqing, and Xu Yaoqing.
It was someone he could never forget just by looking at him.
At this time, a fat doll wearing a bellyband passed by them.
The young man blinked, turned around and turned into a little doll wearing a yellow bellyband. He pointed to the fat doll by the stream, and muttered, "I'm just like him."
With a smile in his eyes, the old man said softly: "Masters, this little brother is a child in the world. Ordinary people are different from us. They have to experience life, old age, sickness and death, and grow up from a small thing the size of a palm."
"Yan'er, you will become as old as me, okay?"
Jiang Yan saw that he turned around and changed into a child, just like Ruan Yunshen that year.
The old man changed their clothes twice, took a child in one hand, and led them to the stream.
A girl was doing laundry by the stream, she looked up and saw two beautiful fat dolls, she couldn't help laughing and said: "The old man is so lucky, the two dolls look like ceramics, they are really pretty."
The old man narrowed his eyes with a smile.
The little doll who turned into a young man walked towards her slowly, squatted on the ground watching her wash clothes, and asked softly, "Little brother, what are you doing?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then she laughed loudly: "This little doll is just being funny, you should call me sister, sister is doing laundry."
"Qing'er, come here."
Jiang Yan heard his own voice, soft and soft in its low voice.
The little baby ran towards him, hugged his neck and said, "Yan'er, that little brother is so strange."
The old man hissed, picked them up and left here.
"Little master, that's not a little brother, that's a woman."
The little baby scratched her head: "What is a woman?"
Jiang Yan suddenly opened his eyes, he woke up from his sleep, and he remembered.
At that time, his name was Yan, and his name was Qing. They came to the world and changed their names to Jiang Yan and Xu Yaoqing.
At that time the old man was still there, and they called him Little Stone.
At that time, they didn’t understand anything, they had to ask questions, they asked a question after walking a few steps, and they had to stay for a long time when they saw flowers and plants, and sometimes they had to walk for several days on a hill, covering the sky and sitting on the ground, crossing mountains and rivers, and seeing everything in the world .
Jiang Yan turned sideways, touched Xi Ran's face, and hugged him tightly.
Yuelaotan ([-])
The two stayed in the nursing home for another night, and when they were about to return the next day, Wu Daming came again.
Wu Daming was holding a bag of fruit in his hand, scratching his head in embarrassment and looking at Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan asked: "What do you mean?"
Wu Daming stuffed the fruit to him, and said with an embarrassing smile, "I'm here to apologize. I broke the chain bridge. I'm really sorry. I'm really afraid that you will call the police if you see my wife's body. "
Jiang Yan nodded: "Even."
Xi Ran was packing up his things in the room and called Wu Daming to come in and talk.
Wu Daming said embarrassingly: "Our clan doesn't have many people, and we will get sick and die of old age just like normal people. Gradually, there are only a small group of people hiding in the deep mountains and old forests. I know you are not ordinary people, and you won't say it. ?”
Xi Ran smiled and said: "Don't worry, we are not people who talk nonsense, Jiang Yan scared you yesterday, we should apologize to you, don't take it to heart."
Wu Daming quickly waved his hands: "Don't dare."
Jiang Yan had nothing to say to him, she sat on the bed and looked at him expressionlessly, the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Wu Daming suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "By the way, it's like this. I went to the elders of the clan yesterday and inquired carefully about the sachet, and got some clues about the sachet."
Jiang Yan is not interested, since the sachet has been taken away, it has nothing to do with him, he will find something else to give to Xi Ran.
Wu Daming said: "More than 3000 years ago, two men went to Acacia Lake and took away Yuelao's sachet. It is said that only a pair of heaven and earth can take away Yuelao's sachet. He was very impressed, he couldn't tell what the two looked like, but it was a coincidence that one of the men also had the word Yan in his name, and the other seemed to be called Qing."
Jiang Yan frowned suddenly.
"I don't know about the other things. How about this? Otherwise, you can leave me a call. If you have any other clues, I'll tell you."
Jiang Yan and Wu Daming exchanged phone numbers, and after sending him away, they pressed their brows with a headache. What happened 1000 years ago, and why did he and Xi Ran separate.
Xi Ran couldn't see his sad look, so he coaxed him: "No matter what happened before, we are together again now, don't get too entangled, just forget about the past, we still have a lot of time in the future .”
Jiang Yan hugged him and said sullenly, "You are so kind."
"After you go back, you can move to live with me, we can be together every day."
Jiang Yan hurriedly agreed, and immediately packed up his things and prepared to move as soon as he got home.
*****
Jiang Shu was taken aback, his big eyes widened: "What? You're going to live with Xi Ran?"
"Well, I'm leaving today." Jiang Yan put the clothes neatly into the travel bag, and then threw them into the Qiankun bag.
Jiang Shu dragged out a luggage bag from the room, put his things in one by one, and muttered, "Is his place big? Is there room for me?"
Jiang Yan searched the Qiankun bag, threw out all the snack toys that did not belong to him, and said flatly, "I didn't intend to take you there."
Jiang Shu jumped up anxiously: "Then what should I do?"
"Are you so old that you can't take care of yourself? I put the water, electricity and gas card on the table. You can figure it out yourself."
Little Rabbit's eyes turned red when he was anxious, and he looked as if he had cried a lot. He sat down on the tea table, hugged his legs and said, "You ungrateful villain who abandoned his brothers!"
Jiang Yan ignored him at all, packed up his things, changed his shoes and left.
Xi Ran tidied up at home all day, rewashed the curtains and sofa covers, dried the quilt, and filled the refrigerator again, waiting for the new tenant to move in with sincerity.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the doorbell rang, and Xi Ran muttered while walking to open the door: "Didn't you say you came here at night?"
He opened the door but there was no one there, only a mass of white flowers at the door.
Xi Ran squatted down amusedly, poked the little rabbit's body, and said with a smile, "Why is there a little rabbit? Why does it look so much like Jiang Shu?"
The little rabbit rolled over with its belly up, curled up its paws and said flatteringly, "I am! I'll come to live with you, okay?"
"You're not a kitten or puppy, why are you still showing your belly?" Xi Ran talked to him for a while, seeing how pitiful he was, he took him into the house, "There is no place for you to live in my house, otherwise You live in the oven."
Jiang Shu was shocked, "Crazy! The taste is getting stronger and stronger!"
Seeing his ears trembling, Xi Ran said with a smile, "I'm just kidding, what are you doing here? How long do you want me to hug you?"
Before Xi Ran could put it down, Jiang Yan had arrived early.
As soon as he rang the doorbell, he heard the sound of tapping footsteps.
Xi Ran was wearing comfortable light gray home clothes, with fluffy panda head slippers on his feet, tilted his head slightly, his chestnut hair was soft and smooth, and looked at Jiang Yan with a gentle and sweet smile.
If you ignore the rabbit in his arms, everything is so beautiful.
Jiang Yan grabbed the rabbit's ears and lifted it up, threw it out without saying a word, entered and then closed the door, all in one go.
"What are you doing? Just let him in." Xi Ran wanted to open the door to have a look, but was dragged back by Jiang Yan's arms.
Jiang Yan rubbed his shoulder and said, "Don't pay attention to him, he will only make trouble."
Xi Ran's head was full of black lines, he thought for a while and said: "Why don't you let him have dinner before leaving."
When Jiang Shutu was hopeless, he got another chance to enter the house. He was carried into the kitchen by Xi Ran under Jiang Yan's cold eyes. Xi Ran took a carrot and a white radish and asked him: "Which one do you eat?"
Jiang Yan interjected, "Just give him some grass."
"I don't eat carrots! I don't eat grass either! I want to eat meat!" Jiang Shu changed back to his original shape, his eyes filled with tears, and he looked at Xi Ran eagerly.
Xi Ran rubbed his face vigorously, and said with a smile: "How can there be such a cute little rabbit."
Jiang Shu blew his beard on his face and said, "I'm so cute, so let me stay."
"No." Xi Ran immediately let go of him, and said seriously: "You can't live here."
"why?"
"Because I have an affair with your senior brother, we may make out in the kitchen, in the living room, in the bathroom, in any corner of the house, so you can't stay." Xi Ran teased him seriously, really silly The rabbit was taken aback.
He turned his head to talk to Jiang Yan, but when he turned his head, he saw Jiang Yan's eyes getting darker and sparkling.
Xi Ran blushed hot, and quickly covered Jiang Yan's eyes: "I'm just kidding, don't look at me like this."
"That's right, but you must not live with him alone, he is a stinky hooligan!" Jiang Shu took the opportunity to yell.
Xi Ran asked, "How do you know?"
Jiang Shu: "..."
"I don't know if you can't talk nonsense." Xi Ran patted the little rabbit's head, "Go to the living room and watch TV, I'm going to cook."
Jiang Shu failed to return, and was kicked out of the house by Jiang Yan after dinner. He squatted at the gate of the community, reminiscing about the smell of braised pork ribs just now while he was sad.
A pair of black pointed leather shoes suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Jiang Shu raised his face and saw the man standing in front of him with a smirk.
Gu Yao stretched out his hand to him: "Baby, let's go, today I am going to abduct and sell rabbits."
*****
Jiang Yan is not the first
The four seasons turned to autumn, and the mountains were quite cold, but the fresh air made people feel refreshed. Xi Ran stretched his waist, brushed his messy hair, and dragged Jiang Yan to a trot on the winding mountain road.
His physical strength was better than Jiang Yan had imagined, even running for an hour without him panting, Jiang Yan remembered that when he was still Ruan Xiqing, he could hold him for a long time with one hand.
The road gradually extended to a lively place, and a whole row of buildings appeared around it. Residential houses and shops were mixed together, and the terminal of minibuses was also nearby.
When the two arrived at the terminal, the minibus was also late. Xi Ran bought a bottle of mineral water at the canteen nearby and asked about the situation of the hotel.
After Xi Ran drank a few sips of water, he handed the mineral water bottle to Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan stood on the side of the road drinking water, watching the passengers getting out of the car one after another. He noticed that there was no Wu Daming in the car, and thought of Wu Daming Maybe he also got out of the car at that time. He is a local, and maybe he took the trail.
There is no hotel in the mountains, but there is a small sanatorium where you can stay for a night or two with some money with your ID card.
Dusk was over, and the sky was getting dark. The two of them saw that it was not early, so they went to the nursing home first. The nursing home was newly built, and the decoration was relatively new, but there were not many residents. There were only one or two old people sitting and chatting in the yard.
As soon as the two walked in, a staff member came to inquire. After Jiang Yan explained his purpose, the lady took them to the office.
"My surname is Fang, and I'm the logistics director here. You can just call me Sister Fang. How long do you plan to stay?" Director Fang asked them, taking out the registration book from the drawer.
Xi Ran smiled and said, "We're here on weekends for vacation, and we'll only stay for two days."
Director Fang saw that he was good-looking, clean and smiling, so he had a good impression of the two of them, and said with a smile: "We don't have any rules here, just don't quarrel with the elderly, nothing else, you take your ID card Come out and I'll leave a copy."
Xi Ran nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, we won't cause you any trouble."
"It doesn't matter, we occasionally have tourists here. The room rate is like this. Our nursing home collects it in the name of love. You can see that all the money will be registered and then used to add things to the elderly. You Although there are not many elderly people living in our nursing home, there are still many left-behind elderly people living in their homes in this mountain. We have to visit them every day. In fact, the workload is not small, and there are many places to spend money. Come, Sign here."
Jiang Yan listened expressionlessly, not knowing what she meant, but Xi Ran could understand that he didn't bring much cash when he went out, so he took out his wallet to check, ordered 2000 yuan from it, and directly Gave it to Director Fang.
Director Fang was slightly stunned. She really hoped that the two of them would pay more for the room, but she didn't expect that the other party would give so much two thousand directly. The shortage of funds in the sanatorium was due to the shortage of funds on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was due to the tourists from the past. Some stayed for a week for only two or three hundred, and water and electricity were also money, which would cause trouble to the nursing home. Director Fang was afraid that this would happen again, so he put pressure on the two of them verbally.
She took the money and said embarrassedly: "This is too polite. On behalf of the nursing home, I thank you two for your love."
"It should be." Xi Ran was still smiling, and he didn't mean to be unhappy at all. Director Fang happily stuffed him with a small bag of Tangerines, and even opened a high-class room for the two of them.
Xi Ran followed Director Fang upstairs, and asked about Acacia Lake by the way.
Director Fang said bluntly: "I'm not a local either. I just married here after graduation. Otherwise, you can ask the old people nearby tomorrow. They might know."
Xi Ran thanked him, and pulled Jiang Yan into the door.
The room has a bathroom and simple daily necessities. It faces south and you can see the rolling hills as soon as you open the window.
Standing by the window, Jiang Yan breathed the pure air in the mountains and fields. He closed his eyes, feeling the ethereal and weak spiritual energy surge between the heaven and the earth.
Xi Ran washed his hands and sat on the sofa to peel the sugar oranges. He peeled five oranges in a row and placed them neatly on the napkin. Then he waved to Jiang Yan and said, "Come and eat the little oranges."
Jiang Yan didn't even raise his hand, sat down beside him, and opened his mouth skillfully.
Yuelaotan ([-])
The moon is bright and clear, the sky is filled with stars, and the bright moonlight shines down, dancing with swarms of fireflies.
Jiang Yan took Xi Ran's hand and walked on the uneven mountain depression. He walked very slowly, for fear that Xi Ran would accidentally fall, but Xi Ran walked as fast as walking on flat ground, humming a song, and using his eyes from time to time Urge Jiang Yan to hurry up.
Jiang Yan smiled helplessly, and chanted a spell in his mouth. Suddenly, snow fell in the mountains and forests. The snowflakes fell from the sky and disappeared as soon as they touched the soil. Still wonderful.
Xi Ran opened his eyes wide in surprise, running happily in the forest, Jiang Yan slowly followed behind him, and said to him: "It snowed heavily the day I first saw you, and then I The day I saw you in Junhua was also snowing heavily, Penglai has no four seasons, and it never snows, when it really snows in winter, let's build a snowman together."
Xi Ran stopped in his tracks, turned around and smiled at him. The moonlight fell behind him, illuminating the winding path. It's a deal."
Jiang Yan approached him, brushed off the broken snow from his shoulders, and said in a gentle voice: "You have always taken care of me more. I don't know how to take care of others, but I want to treat you better. If there is something wrong with me in the future , you just tell me, don't be sulking, and don't ignore me."
Xi Ran could hear the grievance in his tone. Sometimes he really felt that Jiang Yan was a little childish. Although he was tall and had strong facial features, he always lost his temper like a child. Intestine, honesty is a headache, but he still thinks Jiang Yan like this is very likable, they can rely on each other, take care of each other, and become the closest people in the world.
Xi Ran pursed his lips and smiled, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't think about what happened a few days ago, I'm not angry anymore."
Jiang Yan nodded and said, "Don't be jealous."
Xi Ran: "..."
Seeing that he suddenly lost his smile, Jiang Yan kissed his lips flatteringly, took his hand and continued to walk forward.
The two walked through a small forest, and gradually came to a cliff. When Jiang Yan came, he asked the peach blossom essence in the mountain, and learned that there was a cliff in Yuehua Mountain, and a ten-meter-long iron chain bridge was built between the cliffs. Acacia Lake was in the woods opposite the cliff. Among them, this is not a secret in Yuehua Mountain. The local old people know the existence of Acacia Lake, but the chain bridge shakes badly and is in disrepair for a long time. It is very dangerous. The local people do not allow children to play here. No one mentioned Acacia Lake anymore.
When Jiang Yan walked to the cliff, he found that the four corners of the chain bridge were broken. Although it still connected the two ends of the cliff, the bridge tilted very sharply. If you want to cross the bridge, you must be prepared to risk your life.
The iron pile was deeply rooted in the ground, and now the chain was broken, leaving only one head embedded in the ground. Jiang Yan squatted down at the iron pile and touched the smooth and neat cut. It was cut off by someone, but the man only cut off one iron post, but left one end.
Xi Ran also realized that something was wrong, and murmured: "Some people don't want us to pass. Most people will not take the risk of crossing the bridge when they see that the bridge is tilted."
"He didn't want us to cross the bridge, but he left a way out for himself." Jiang Yan bent the corner of his mouth meaningfully, "Leave him alone, we'll go there first."
Xi Ran asked: "Then how do we go...to..." Before he finished speaking, he felt his eyes flicker, and the scene in front of him turned to the opposite side of the cliff.
The forest is not big, and the location of Acacia Pool is very conspicuous. Although it is quite famous because of the story of Yue Lao, it is still just an inconspicuous small pool, surrounded by a pile of rocks, mossy, and sparrows occasionally land on the ground. Step on the edge of the pool and sip a few sips of water.
Jiang Yan asked Xi Ran to wait for a while, then turned around and jumped into the pool. It is rumored that Zhongyue veteran put the brocade box where the sachet was stored at the bottom of the pool.
He searched around the bottom of the pool, and found a box between the rocks. When he was holding the box and was about to surface, a foot loomed at the bottom of the water, and that foot was hidden behind a big rock. The red embroidered cloth shoes and a small part of the ankle were exposed.
Jiang Yan put the box away and swam towards that foot. He walked around the stone and saw a dead body in a hidden corner!
It was a young woman, in her twenties like a flower, her eyes were closed peacefully, her limbs were tied with ropes and fixed on a stone. She had obviously been dead for a long time, but her body was intact without any decay.
Jiang Yan slowly stretched out his hand to cover his celestial spirit cover, he was surprised to find that although the woman was dead, her soul still remained in her body.
"Jiang Yan! Are you okay? If you can't find it, come up." Xi Ran's anxious call came faintly through the water, and Jiang Yan ignored the corpse and immediately surfaced.
Xi Ran suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He squatted by the water and reached out his hand to Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan came out of the pool. He lowered his head and shook the water beads from his hair. After approaching Xi Ran, he said, "I'm covered in water."
Xi Ran wiped the water off his face with a tissue, and said while wiping, "Go back and take a shower and change your clothes. If you can't find it, don't look for it." He suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, and stared at Jiang. Yan asked with a glance, "Why don't you use spells to dry it?"
Jiang Yan still lowered his head, water drops slipped from his temples, hitting his strong chest drop by drop, he wiped away the moisture from his nose with his fingertips, and said seriously: "I like the way you wipe my face. "
Xi Ran was angry and funny, "Stop making trouble, and dry yourself off quickly."
Jiang Yan used the spell to instantly dry his body. He took out the black brocade box he found in the water, and couldn't wait to go back to the nursing home, so he opened it while standing by the pool.
The black box body is dotted with plum blossom patterns, and the outside is stained with water, but the inside of the box is dry without any moisture, but there is nothing inside.
Jiang Yan frowned angrily, closed the box and threw it into the water.
A picture flashed before Xi Ran's eyes, Jiang Yan's throwing action seemed familiar to him, but he couldn't remember where he saw it.
Seeing him staring at the water surface dully, Jiang Yan quickly said, "Maybe it was taken away by someone else, don't be sad, I'll find you a better token of love."
Xi Ran came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I'm not sad, no matter whether there is a token of love or not, we will not be separated."
"How about that, you deserve the best." Jiang Yan glanced at the water, and murmured, "Maybe you can ask her."
Xi Ran followed her gaze and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"A body."
Xi Ran thought he was joking, and comforted him: "Just treat it as a trip, go back, I'm sleepy."
"Are you sleepy?" Jiang Yan touched his face, turned and squatted down, "Come on, I'll carry you on my back."
Xi Ran made a few casual excuses, but Jiang Yan took it seriously, he slowly climbed onto Jiang Yan's back, put his arms around his neck and said: "This kind of time seems to be stolen, next time I will lose my memory again I will forget you from time to time, but it doesn’t matter, as long as you appear by my side, I will still like you as always.”
He seemed to be really tired, his voice gradually weakened, and his breathing became long and regular.
Jiang Yan turned his face, and saw Xi Ran leaning on his shoulder and fell asleep, his thick eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyelids, and he murmured: "Yan'er."
Jiang Yan's heart skipped a beat, even though Xi Ran would forget their experiences again and again, but his body would eventually leave imprints, those memories were hidden deep in his soul, waiting to break out of the ground that moment.
*****
Yuehua Mountain produces tea, and the locals also love to drink tea. There are several small teahouses near the nursing home, usually where local old people play chess and read newspapers. A long bench.
The teahouse also offers morning noodles, and the toppings are relatively simple. Jiang Yan and Xi Ran chose one to go in, ordered a pot of tea and two bowls of noodles, seeing that the weather was fine and the sun was warm, they paid the money and chose a seat outside to sit down.
Not long after, the boss came out with the noodles, two bowls of fragrant shredded pork noodles with pickled vegetables, a layer of toppings, and greasy poached eggs lying on top,
After Jiang Yan ate his noodles, he suddenly talked about the past.
"I used to like to eat sauced beef, which is the kind in the cold vegetable shop. You think their beef is not good enough. Every weekend, you will give me the stewed beef in sauce. The beef is cut into thin slices, and a few poached eggs are fried, and finally boiled. A little noodles, I have to eat a big bowl every time, sometimes I also cook beef brisket noodles, I like it too, as long as it is cooked by you, it is delicious."
Xi Ran laughed when he heard that, and said: "No wonder your junior brother always asks me to cook beef noodles. Did he often eat my cooked noodles then?"
"No." Jiang Yan took it for granted, "Why should you give him the noodles you cooked for me?"
Xi Ran looked at him dumbfounded: "It's so delicious, it's nonsense."
"Everything you cook is delicious, and I love it."
Wu Daming happened to pass by here, and heard two foreigners talking at the door of the small teahouse. He took a closer look and it turned out to be the two from yesterday. head, looking straight at him.
Wu Daming smiled dryly.
Jiang Yan raised the corners of his lips, but his eyes were as cold as a chilling wind, "Brother Wu, what a coincidence, I met you again, if you don't mind, come over and have a sip of tea."
Wu Daming walked over with a smile, exchanged pleasantries with the two, pulled the bench and sat down, and asked, "How are you two playing? Have you found the Acacia Lake?"
Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Don't rush to talk about Acacia Lake, Brother Wu, what do you think of the story about Yuelao I told you yesterday?"
"Uh, ups and downs, it's good."
Jiang Yan poured him a cup of tea and said slowly, "Then I will tell you a new story today."
Yuelaotan ([-])
Wu Daming was puzzled and said, "What story does the big brother want to tell me?"
"We went to the chain bridge last night. One of the iron piles was broken. The body of the chain bridge, which was already swaying, tilted, and ordinary people couldn't pass it."
Wu Daming held the teacup, his eyes flashed involuntarily.
Jiang Yan continued: "Fortunately, it's still possible to surpass others, but it's just a little more dangerous. We went to the opposite cliff and found the rumored Acacia Lake."
Wu Daming's face changed slightly, he smiled dryly and said, "Well, I haven't been there before, what's the matter, did you find the sachet?"
Jiang Yan shook his head and said: "I jumped into the pool, but I didn't find the sachet, but I saw the corpse of a woman. The woman's body was not decomposed, and she was tied with hemp rope and fixed beside a big rock. Suddenly, I thought of a rumor. It is said that there is a nation left over from the ancient times. They have the ability to resurrect from the dead. After people die, they soak them in water. In the first few years, their flesh and internal organs gradually melted, revealing the original bones. Gradually, their bodies will grow new flesh and blood. After 81, one day their bodies will glow red. Under the moonlight, it's like a pool of water has changed color. I saw Acacia When looking at the corpse in the pool, I suddenly thought of this rumor, and also thought of Meiniang's death."
Jiang Yan stopped, and under Wu Daming's pale complexion, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea slowly, and continued: "I also thought of the chain bridge that was broken at one end. That woman was trapped on the opposite cliff. After all, the method of resurrection is quite strange. In this case, why don't I help that person, so when I left yesterday, I also broke the iron pile on the other end, and simply broke the chain bridge , From now on, clean up, no more involvement."
Wu Daming's expression changed drastically, he stood up abruptly, and accidentally overturned the bench under his feet.
Jiang Yan said lightly: "Brother Wu's complexion doesn't look very good, let's drink some more tea." He picked up the teapot and refilled Wu Daming's cup.
Wu Daming's Adam's apple rolled, and he watched the boiling tea slide into the cup blankly. The heat was overflowing, and the sound of water suddenly made him feel deaf and dizzy. Jiang Yan put the teapot back on the table, and when the bottom of the pot touched the table, there was a dull ring.
This muffled sound brought Wu Daming back to his senses. He rubbed his palms on the side of his trousers uncomfortably, wiped away the sweat from his palms, and said dryly: "I still have something to do, so I won't drink the tea, both of you." See you soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, he left the teahouse as if fleeing.
Xi Ran asked inexplicably, "What happened to him?"
Jiang Yan took a sip of tea, and Fang asked, "Is the noodles ready? If it's ready, let's go and see."
After Wu Daming left the teahouse, he ran towards the cliff like crazy. He only thought that Jiang Yan was lying to him, but even so, he couldn't feel at ease if he didn't take a look with his own eyes.
Panting, he ran to the edge of the cliff. The chain bridge hangs in the air in a state of natural drooping, and the opposite cliff that used to be close at hand is now out of reach.
Wu Daming grabbed his hair angrily and fell to the ground, muttering: "Impossible, that guy must have lied to me, ahhh!! I'm going to kill you!!!"
Jiang Yan's voice suddenly appeared behind him, and said coldly, "Stand up."
Wu Daming turned his head back in panic, he stumbled up and asked through gritted teeth, "Who the hell are you guys!"
Jiang Yan approached him slowly, and suddenly knelt down beside him.
Wu Daming looked at Jiang Yan in confusion, but saw him holding up a wounded sparrow in the grass. He gently stroked the sparrow's head, and then threw it into the air. Wings, free to cry and fly.
Jiang Yan twirled the dust on his fingertips, and said lightly: "It takes 81 years to be resurrected, but Yuelao has only survived [-] years. The day he goes to heaven is when Mei Niang wakes up. Sending the sachet back to Acacia Lake is to tell Mei Niang that he has not changed his original intention and is willing to wait here forever."
Wu Daming said powerlessly: "The truth of the rumor has nothing to do with us. To be honest, the pair of sachets were rumored to have been taken away thousands of years ago. I cut down the chain bridge just to prevent you from disturbing the Acacia Lake." My wife, who are you, why do you insist on forcing me to a desperate situation?"
Jiang Yan looked at him silently, and chanted a spell towards the iron chain bridge. The drooping iron chain bridge was slowly lifted up, climbed up the cliff little by little, and returned to its original position.
Wu Daming looked at him in astonishment, his body was too shocked to move.
Jiang Yan said: "Go and see your wife, she is still lying in the pool."
Wu Daming was full of questions, but he didn't want to ask anything now. He just wanted to rush to the opposite cliff to meet his wife. He turned around and ran, stepping on the chain bridge and rushing to the opposite cliff.
Xi Ran watched the excitement for a while, and waited for Wu Daming to leave before he asked, "Why did you cut down the chain bridge to scare him? It's related to the sachet?"
Jiang Yan shook his head: "It's okay."
"Then why did you..."
Jiang Yan said expressionlessly, "He looks like a bad guy."
Xi Ran chuckled: "Wu Daming doesn't seem to know how honest he is, how can he look like a bad guy?"
Jiang Yan replied: "He doesn't blush when he lies."
"Yeah, you are the most real." Xi Ran glanced at him, "Let's go, let's go to another place."
Jiang Yan nodded and said: "The technique of resurrection is heresy. God will not give them a long life easily. Many of their clansmen would rather die like ordinary people than be reborn repeatedly, so I was a little worried yesterday and wanted to see What's going on with this Wu Daming?" He took Xi Ran's hand and walked back slowly.
Xi Ran thought for a while before saying: "How can you explain the relationship clearly, as long as you can stay together, no matter how much you pay, it's not a pity. Didn't Mei Niang lie in the water for 81 years because of Yuelao? "
Jiang Yan stopped in his tracks and said in a deep voice: "Yuelao has guarded Xiangsitan for 80 years, but his lifespan has come to an end before the last moment. This is the price for Mei Niang's resurrection. The world has its own rules. If If you go against the sky and mess with the way of heaven, you will naturally be punished, this is the so-called retribution."
Xi Ran was puzzled and asked: "What did Yuelao do wrong? Why did he have to wait for 80 years?"
"He didn't do anything wrong, don't forget that he ascended to immortality in the end." Jiang Yan said, "Yuelao's ascension to immortality sounds easy, but in fact it is not. Being able to become immortal in 80 years is already a gift from heaven. "
Xi Ran's face was a bit tangled, he glanced at Jiang Yan, and said slowly: "If it were me, I would rather not be a god, but be with Mei Niang."
"His lifespan is over, and he will go down to the underworld to be reincarnated in the world. After drinking Meng Po soup, he will forget about Mei Niang. There is no such thing as the best of both worlds in this world. He and Mei Niang have no destiny in the first place."
Xi Ran curled his lips and said: "It's good to be a moon elder, and you can also connect with lovers."
*****
The young man sat on the stone, crossed his knees and looked at the old man curiously.
The old man cleverly conjured a grasshopper and handed it to the young man.
The young man blinked and asked in confusion, "What is this?"
"It's a grasshopper."
"What is a grasshopper?"
"The grasshopper is a small animal on earth."
The young man picked up the grasshopper and looked at it for a while, tilted his head and blinked his eyes and asked, "Why doesn't it move?"
The old man hesitated, "This..."
Jiang Yan saw himself blowing on the grasshopper, and the grasshopper came to life immediately, jumping around in the grass.
The young man laughed happily: "It moved, look at the little stone, the little animal moved."
The old man quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, little masters, that's not the case. This is a made-up grasshopper, so it won't move."
The young man pursed his lips and asked, "Then why?"
The old man didn't know how to answer, so he could only sigh leisurely.
The young man sniffed and said pitifully, "There are only three of us in Penglai, so it's meaningless."
The old man thought about it, and said kindly: "Little master, don't be sad, I will take you to the world for a walk."
The scene changed, and the three of them appeared by the stream.
The young man turned his head slowly, and Jiang Yan saw his appearance clearly.
It was Xi Ran, Ruan Xiqing, and Xu Yaoqing.
It was someone he could never forget just by looking at him.
At this time, a fat doll wearing a bellyband passed by them.
The young man blinked, turned around and turned into a little doll wearing a yellow bellyband. He pointed to the fat doll by the stream, and muttered, "I'm just like him."
With a smile in his eyes, the old man said softly: "Masters, this little brother is a child in the world. Ordinary people are different from us. They have to experience life, old age, sickness and death, and grow up from a small thing the size of a palm."
"Yan'er, you will become as old as me, okay?"
Jiang Yan saw that he turned around and changed into a child, just like Ruan Yunshen that year.
The old man changed their clothes twice, took a child in one hand, and led them to the stream.
A girl was doing laundry by the stream, she looked up and saw two beautiful fat dolls, she couldn't help laughing and said: "The old man is so lucky, the two dolls look like ceramics, they are really pretty."
The old man narrowed his eyes with a smile.
The little doll who turned into a young man walked towards her slowly, squatted on the ground watching her wash clothes, and asked softly, "Little brother, what are you doing?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then she laughed loudly: "This little doll is just being funny, you should call me sister, sister is doing laundry."
"Qing'er, come here."
Jiang Yan heard his own voice, soft and soft in its low voice.
The little baby ran towards him, hugged his neck and said, "Yan'er, that little brother is so strange."
The old man hissed, picked them up and left here.
"Little master, that's not a little brother, that's a woman."
The little baby scratched her head: "What is a woman?"
Jiang Yan suddenly opened his eyes, he woke up from his sleep, and he remembered.
At that time, his name was Yan, and his name was Qing. They came to the world and changed their names to Jiang Yan and Xu Yaoqing.
At that time the old man was still there, and they called him Little Stone.
At that time, they didn’t understand anything, they had to ask questions, they asked a question after walking a few steps, and they had to stay for a long time when they saw flowers and plants, and sometimes they had to walk for several days on a hill, covering the sky and sitting on the ground, crossing mountains and rivers, and seeing everything in the world .
Jiang Yan turned sideways, touched Xi Ran's face, and hugged him tightly.
Yuelaotan ([-])
The two stayed in the nursing home for another night, and when they were about to return the next day, Wu Daming came again.
Wu Daming was holding a bag of fruit in his hand, scratching his head in embarrassment and looking at Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan asked: "What do you mean?"
Wu Daming stuffed the fruit to him, and said with an embarrassing smile, "I'm here to apologize. I broke the chain bridge. I'm really sorry. I'm really afraid that you will call the police if you see my wife's body. "
Jiang Yan nodded: "Even."
Xi Ran was packing up his things in the room and called Wu Daming to come in and talk.
Wu Daming said embarrassingly: "Our clan doesn't have many people, and we will get sick and die of old age just like normal people. Gradually, there are only a small group of people hiding in the deep mountains and old forests. I know you are not ordinary people, and you won't say it. ?”
Xi Ran smiled and said: "Don't worry, we are not people who talk nonsense, Jiang Yan scared you yesterday, we should apologize to you, don't take it to heart."
Wu Daming quickly waved his hands: "Don't dare."
Jiang Yan had nothing to say to him, she sat on the bed and looked at him expressionlessly, the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Wu Daming suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "By the way, it's like this. I went to the elders of the clan yesterday and inquired carefully about the sachet, and got some clues about the sachet."
Jiang Yan is not interested, since the sachet has been taken away, it has nothing to do with him, he will find something else to give to Xi Ran.
Wu Daming said: "More than 3000 years ago, two men went to Acacia Lake and took away Yuelao's sachet. It is said that only a pair of heaven and earth can take away Yuelao's sachet. He was very impressed, he couldn't tell what the two looked like, but it was a coincidence that one of the men also had the word Yan in his name, and the other seemed to be called Qing."
Jiang Yan frowned suddenly.
"I don't know about the other things. How about this? Otherwise, you can leave me a call. If you have any other clues, I'll tell you."
Jiang Yan and Wu Daming exchanged phone numbers, and after sending him away, they pressed their brows with a headache. What happened 1000 years ago, and why did he and Xi Ran separate.
Xi Ran couldn't see his sad look, so he coaxed him: "No matter what happened before, we are together again now, don't get too entangled, just forget about the past, we still have a lot of time in the future .”
Jiang Yan hugged him and said sullenly, "You are so kind."
"After you go back, you can move to live with me, we can be together every day."
Jiang Yan hurriedly agreed, and immediately packed up his things and prepared to move as soon as he got home.
*****
Jiang Shu was taken aback, his big eyes widened: "What? You're going to live with Xi Ran?"
"Well, I'm leaving today." Jiang Yan put the clothes neatly into the travel bag, and then threw them into the Qiankun bag.
Jiang Shu dragged out a luggage bag from the room, put his things in one by one, and muttered, "Is his place big? Is there room for me?"
Jiang Yan searched the Qiankun bag, threw out all the snack toys that did not belong to him, and said flatly, "I didn't intend to take you there."
Jiang Shu jumped up anxiously: "Then what should I do?"
"Are you so old that you can't take care of yourself? I put the water, electricity and gas card on the table. You can figure it out yourself."
Little Rabbit's eyes turned red when he was anxious, and he looked as if he had cried a lot. He sat down on the tea table, hugged his legs and said, "You ungrateful villain who abandoned his brothers!"
Jiang Yan ignored him at all, packed up his things, changed his shoes and left.
Xi Ran tidied up at home all day, rewashed the curtains and sofa covers, dried the quilt, and filled the refrigerator again, waiting for the new tenant to move in with sincerity.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the doorbell rang, and Xi Ran muttered while walking to open the door: "Didn't you say you came here at night?"
He opened the door but there was no one there, only a mass of white flowers at the door.
Xi Ran squatted down amusedly, poked the little rabbit's body, and said with a smile, "Why is there a little rabbit? Why does it look so much like Jiang Shu?"
The little rabbit rolled over with its belly up, curled up its paws and said flatteringly, "I am! I'll come to live with you, okay?"
"You're not a kitten or puppy, why are you still showing your belly?" Xi Ran talked to him for a while, seeing how pitiful he was, he took him into the house, "There is no place for you to live in my house, otherwise You live in the oven."
Jiang Shu was shocked, "Crazy! The taste is getting stronger and stronger!"
Seeing his ears trembling, Xi Ran said with a smile, "I'm just kidding, what are you doing here? How long do you want me to hug you?"
Before Xi Ran could put it down, Jiang Yan had arrived early.
As soon as he rang the doorbell, he heard the sound of tapping footsteps.
Xi Ran was wearing comfortable light gray home clothes, with fluffy panda head slippers on his feet, tilted his head slightly, his chestnut hair was soft and smooth, and looked at Jiang Yan with a gentle and sweet smile.
If you ignore the rabbit in his arms, everything is so beautiful.
Jiang Yan grabbed the rabbit's ears and lifted it up, threw it out without saying a word, entered and then closed the door, all in one go.
"What are you doing? Just let him in." Xi Ran wanted to open the door to have a look, but was dragged back by Jiang Yan's arms.
Jiang Yan rubbed his shoulder and said, "Don't pay attention to him, he will only make trouble."
Xi Ran's head was full of black lines, he thought for a while and said: "Why don't you let him have dinner before leaving."
When Jiang Shutu was hopeless, he got another chance to enter the house. He was carried into the kitchen by Xi Ran under Jiang Yan's cold eyes. Xi Ran took a carrot and a white radish and asked him: "Which one do you eat?"
Jiang Yan interjected, "Just give him some grass."
"I don't eat carrots! I don't eat grass either! I want to eat meat!" Jiang Shu changed back to his original shape, his eyes filled with tears, and he looked at Xi Ran eagerly.
Xi Ran rubbed his face vigorously, and said with a smile: "How can there be such a cute little rabbit."
Jiang Shu blew his beard on his face and said, "I'm so cute, so let me stay."
"No." Xi Ran immediately let go of him, and said seriously: "You can't live here."
"why?"
"Because I have an affair with your senior brother, we may make out in the kitchen, in the living room, in the bathroom, in any corner of the house, so you can't stay." Xi Ran teased him seriously, really silly The rabbit was taken aback.
He turned his head to talk to Jiang Yan, but when he turned his head, he saw Jiang Yan's eyes getting darker and sparkling.
Xi Ran blushed hot, and quickly covered Jiang Yan's eyes: "I'm just kidding, don't look at me like this."
"That's right, but you must not live with him alone, he is a stinky hooligan!" Jiang Shu took the opportunity to yell.
Xi Ran asked, "How do you know?"
Jiang Shu: "..."
"I don't know if you can't talk nonsense." Xi Ran patted the little rabbit's head, "Go to the living room and watch TV, I'm going to cook."
Jiang Shu failed to return, and was kicked out of the house by Jiang Yan after dinner. He squatted at the gate of the community, reminiscing about the smell of braised pork ribs just now while he was sad.
A pair of black pointed leather shoes suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Jiang Shu raised his face and saw the man standing in front of him with a smirk.
Gu Yao stretched out his hand to him: "Baby, let's go, today I am going to abduct and sell rabbits."
