I have seen the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal too many times, the pier is full of people, and the twigs and weeping willows are close to each other. Whether it is a farewell or a hurry, there is no time when I am not happy, and there is no time when I don’t want to live in this world.

But this time I squeezed into the cabin with Jiayan in my arms, the slanted missing corner was right on the land of Qilu, the fields were covered with snow, the icy shoals were dotted with shoals, black smoke curled up from those pale colors, I walked all the way , was deceived into numbness by the dream, only felt that the unfinished business of ten years ago had finally come to an end, my heart was relaxed, and I was a little exhausted.

"Are we escaping?" Jiayan asked me.

"Shh."

A few strands of light leaked from the missing corner, illuminating the faces in the small space.The deck was trampled on, and it was like rolling down a wooden barrel.

"It's time to serve food—" The barrel rolled to the bottom of the boat, knocking open the baffle to reveal a face full of flesh, "Hurry up, everyone!"

Several figures immediately rolled out of the dark cabin, and they crawled onto the deck, gorging themselves on the leftovers.

It was just leftovers from the rich and noble people on the boat. I picked up two fairly clean corn buns, which were only as big as a child's fist, and stuffed them into Jiayan's arms.

"Aren't you going to eat?" she asked me.

I shook my head and asked her to eat quickly. This was just a dream. I just felt uncomfortable if I didn’t eat or drink. I’m sure I wouldn’t starve to death.

"Food bucket!" The cook kicked one person down, "Eating so much! It's enough to live two people!"

The man took a choke, then crawled up and knocked his head loudly, the cook happily showed his yellow teeth, and said: "My master is soft-hearted, and is willing to save you poor lives, but you have to work hard when you get on the shore. If there is anything good, I can't do without you."

"My lord, you are right." Everyone nodded quickly, "We are the benefactor's dog."

It's just that I have just left the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den.

"Five?"

"Hey." I rushed up to help him beat his back and squeeze his arms, "What do you want?"

"You're still clever, you're not in vain for my cultivation." He sighed comfortably, "Go, serve the few dishes in the kitchen to the distinguished guests."

"Decree!" I winked at Jiayan, imitating the ship's rules, and replied loudly.

Just as I thought, after the Qingfeng Gang was destroyed, the dream turned again, even the mountains collapsed, and the rolling stones burst out. But the day was approaching the battle of Dongchang, and I was horrified. Fortunately, Jiayan was fine, so we didn't delay in Linqing, and we hurried and hurried, and finally caught up with the last boat before the river was closed.

Naturally, the last group is not doing business, and there is no such thing as compassionate and soft-hearted. If you dare to ask for thousands of dollars in the way of survival, there will naturally be people flocking to throw a lot of money.If you don’t have money, you’ll pay with your life. Selling yourself can always make a living. Jiayan and I have a good physique, even better when we were young. The manager probably thought that we would not lose money when we grew up, so he signed the deed of selling ourselves and threw us on board together. .

Jiayan also secretly asked me, what should I do if Shimen has no money to redeem.

I laughed at Xiao Jiayan's innocence and cuteness, so I replied to her with her drunken words in the future - "Life is a Yunmeng person, death is a Yunmeng ghost, life and death will return to heaven and earth, where can I stay?"

This is the advantage of people in the Jianghu, fake faces and fake names, and martial arts backed by martial arts, the rules can't be bound by the government and the government can't keep it. Although this life is involuntary, it is enough to squander it all over the world. I am not afraid .

What's more, it is still unknown whether this dream will exist after the ship docks.

Unexpectedly, she lowered her head and thought for a while, leaned on me, and kissed me on the face.

What's the matter?I hugged this baby dumbfounded.

On the other side of the deck is the kitchen. The ship’s route is not clean. The three-story ship is like a giant beast. It swallows thousands of dollars without making a sound, but it is definitely worth the price. So drunk, I took the food box to the low ladder, turned up the wooden corridor, and there was a servant within ten steps.In order to earn more head money, the wooden boards on the boat are messy and often have sandwich rooms, so that the heights are staggered and another [-] steps are made. Just after turning the corner, there is a "咻" in the ear, and a cold light flashes in front of the eyes.

I drew back and used the golden cicada to escape the shell, stretched out my hand to block, cut through the cuff on my arm with a sharp blade, and collided with the short dagger hidden in it with a clang.I took advantage of the opportunity to throw out the iron chain, but missed, twisted my waist and jumped away with one hand on the ground, and caught two hidden weapons.

The sound of footsteps was approaching, and the visitor turned around in an instant to disappear, only the servant shouted loudly: "Who is there!"

"Ouch, little brother," I said in a bad mood, posing on the ground, protecting the food box with one hand, and hiding the hidden weapon in the skirt with the other, "I just fell down. The boat, the boat is unstable, and I can't swim... ..."

"Scare me to death, go and go, be quick!" the servant said angrily.

"Yes, yes. The food is definitely not spread, brother, don't tell the fat man."

"I know, go away."

I knew in my heart that this level had been calculated, and the side of the boat was the back, so I walked a few steps patiently, only to see that there was no one around to take out the hidden weapon to look, as expected, the same move, but also the same style of peacock feather.

It's the same door, but who could it be?

The doubt didn't last long. After a while, the bow of the boat turned across the river, and the hull of the boat deflected. Then, between yin and yang, the cold light after the snow cleared half of the wall, and the stream of light floated in gold for a moment. Looking up, I saw——

The young senior brother Ren Jin after lifting his invisibility.

"Shuangshuang."

He called me hoarsely.

How, how come!This sound pierced through the dream, like the sound of internal force vibrating underwater, arousing the chills all over his body. I stared at his intact right arm. It was so real, as if it was a fresh young knight, not from me The eerie cripple in my memory.

The young man is unruly, with hair like withered grass and green stubble on his face, but amidst this desolation, there are a pair of eyes that are cracked and burning.

It is the molten iron in the dark night that makes people unable to move their eyes.

I finally understood what was going to happen next.

Just because I understood it, the blood that was originally silent screamed with extreme anger and grief, the muscles tensed and made sour sounds, the boat was still moving, but I felt that everything was still, or this scene and this thing hummed again and again, like a collision The flint and sparks splashed on the picture scroll, burning the falling snow on the eaves.

"I found them."

He said.

"Those beasts, beasts!"

he cries.

"I want them to pay in blood!"

he shouted.

Boom—the ears were full of blood, the cold light disappeared, I fell to my knees, my eyes were full of blood and fire, I was screaming, the ship was howling, and countless sawdust and debris were flying up, my brother stepped on these ashes and rushed Entering the gatehouse, he raised his knife and killed two minions. The blood drew an arc and stained the window screen.

Like the shadow puppet show that my brother took me to see when I was a child, the jumping leather, the clanging drum.The senior kicked the big man's big knife, and the big man grabbed the senior brother's ankle.

"Ah."

Do not! !

I suddenly came back to my senses, shouted at the top of my lungs, and ran from the collapsed boards, and jumped towards the door that was about to be burned——

The senior brother turned around and kicked, and kicked forward with one foot on the ground. The big man picked up the knife and turned around. There was a swipe of the knife wind brushing his neck, breaking half of his hair——

He doesn't want to live anymore, he wants to...

When I stepped into the door, I saw the big man retracting the knife and stabbing it back, revealing his flaws. The senior brother stabbed the big man's heart with the blade, but it was not so easy. The big man was already ruthless, he was a desperate man who licked blood on his knife, he squinted his eyes slightly , The point of the knife is upward, and it goes straight to the brother's armpit.

Just a little bit!Just a little bit!

I let out a roar, and rolled forward with a tiger pounce.This moment was released very slowly, yes, I just remembered that the big man is Yang Lin, the bandit leader of Dezhou, the beast who blocked us outside the city of Dezhou.This man has been pursued and killed by his senior brother all his life, and I searched for him for two years after his senior brother died, and finally died surrounded by three seniors in the sect.

But has the obsession with life dissipated?

No, even if I am deeply trapped in the old dream of yellow beams, blood and deep hatred are gnawing at my bone marrow. When I see him once, I can't wait to eat his flesh alive, I can't wait to tear his shadow into pieces, kill, kill again!

With deep hatred and deep attachment, it is like falling into Avici Hell.

I saw the blade getting closer and closer, and thought that killing to stop killing is for the living to see. The living live because of death.

I can't be a dreamer.

The sound of the waves roared like a roar, and all the horses were silent. All these angry voices, amidst the bright red background, a bell rang.

—and a sigh.

But in an instant, the strong internal force cut straight in, and a trick of "Fantasy Talking Dream" lightly swept over the big man and the senior brother, and forcefully pushed me out of the door and window. I fell on the side of the boat and broke a rib.

"...Good words."

There was a cool breeze blowing on the water, and I couldn't struggle. Only then did I hear the voices of my servants yelling everywhere. I looked carefully to see where a ship had collapsed and caught fire. The sun was setting like blood on the smooth deck, and Jiayan's white shoes fell on it. Step towards me.

Idiots say that Meng's skill is not inferior to her when she was in her prime. I looked up at her, and I saw her growing taller step by step, her body was elongated, her clothes were dyed, and her light gauze skirt was dragging on the ground, sweeping the shadow of the setting sun.

— The wind died down.

She was imposing, even more serious than the usual appearance of teaching junior sisters. I was horrified, and the insane madness was instantly emptied, like a divine enlightenment, pouring a thoroughness on my head.

"Shuang'er, the deceased is gone, have you forgotten?"

she says.

"Sorrow returns to the wind, and the wind is full of sorrow, and the heart is full of grievances and internal injuries.

As far as the distant ambition can reach, I pity the Xiangyang of the floating clouds. "

The Sad Return Wind was born out of Qu Yuan’s Nine Chapters. I’ve never heard Jia Yan sing it before. She stood quietly in front of me with a clean face. She read every word clearly. The boats, boats, and sky were immersed in the water together, and the color peeled off in pieces.

"Crying and weeping and desolate, thinking without sleep until dawn.

In the end of the long night, I am so graceful, I will not go away to cover up this sorrow. "

Different from the previous enmity, I recall the miasma that has not dissipated for many years, the continuous rain, and the dark fragrance. There are too many condolences, and it becomes numb over time, but there is always something left, maybe a small comb, a begging spider, The new orchids under the broken stele, the lingering aroma of wine, the blood-stained names sewn on the clothes, and the knife clenched tightly after singing...

If you don't believe in the past and the future, the dead are gone, and the living are like this.

My eyes were sore and I was in a trance.

——"Go back, come back, come back if you go."

The words came out of my mouth, and looking from a distance, the figures of Senior Brother and Yang Lin swaying in the window finally turned into ashes and disappeared.

Jiayan squatted down, I looked into her gentle eyes, she reached out to stroke my temples and cheeks, and finally closed my eyes: "Shuang'er, go back quickly."

I felt the warmth on my lips, but I tasted it, and then the voice rang in my ear.

only heard:

"Someone is dreaming, I want to go to it, it is as lifelike as a butterfly, and I will attract it."

……

"I'm here now, and I'm going home together in the robes. Tao Ran has a dream, and he will return when he is lost."

I obviously closed my eyes, but I saw two shining dream butterflies from the darkness. The butterfly shadows were graceful, and they were accompanied by a three-fold song. They danced happily and slowly flew towards the white light gradually brightening...
