After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the male protagonist is not allowed to ge

Deng Tao and Poinsettia were relieved that Jiang Shanglu could come back early.

After all, the two of them were still young children at heart, and it was already not easy to be able to delay for several days in front of Chen Ke, who was very rich in the city, and after that night of tenderness, Wen Ying and Jiang Shanglu and Jiang Shanglu also had some private exchanges on some things that happened before.

Poinsettia didn't quite know what consensus they had reached, but the conversation seemed to go smoothly anyway, and Wen Ying stayed with Jiang Shanglu for the next few days and didn't leave immediately.

And in my heart, Poinsettia actually didn't understand why Wen Ying, when she didn't know what their purpose was, offered to help pretend that she didn't recognize Deng Tao and herself, and deliberately dragged Chen Tao with them. Ke didn't care about the lotus pond in the old house in his time, but Jiang Shanglu laughed when he heard him ask such a private question, and then explained to him patiently, saying,

"Since he saw who you were the first time we met, he must have guessed that I asked you to do this on purpose. Of course, he has the ability to take away the aquatic plant he has been looking for in the lotus pond at any time. , but once you take it away, what are you going to do to hang on to that Chen Ke, he is just like you, he is also waiting for me to come back and tell him what's going on, he doesn't want to ruin my business casually."

"Hey, so that's the case, then did you know that Wen Ying would appear here, and would take the initiative to help us..."

Hearing what he said, I probably understand why Jiang Shanglu was so relieved at that time that the two children came over just like that. Jiang Shanglu casually smiled and pinched his face, then raised his hand and stuffed it into his mouth on purpose. The icing orange candy stopped him from asking any more questions.

Of course, Wen Ying bought the orange candy that these children thought was too sweet for his second uncle. Anyway, since that night, the two of them, who should be both busy, really have nothing to do. It took a little time to come out and get tired of staying together for two or three days.

Moreover, although Wen Ying's indulgence towards Jiang Shanglu was not obvious, but if you pay close attention, you will find the degree of indulgence, which really made the whole family, including Lao Shen, feel a little unbelievable.

"I think uncle must be like a flower in Wen Ying's eyes. Before going to bed, you must put it on the bedside and smell the fragrance to fall asleep. When you wake up, you have to watch him bloom to wake up. Didn't you notice that he even rolled up his sleeves?" I want to subconsciously do such small things for my uncle, and I am afraid that he will feel tired and hard, so he must really like my uncle very much..."

Miss Xiaotao's outpouring of emotion over the past few days made Poinsettia a little bit uncontrollable to laugh, but seeing the wonderful atmosphere of these two people that is always difficult for outsiders to get in, Poinsettia also thinks it's quite special.

On the third night, Wen Ying and Jiang Shanglu finally went out for a walk like the old men at the entrance of the alley.

The place I went to, Poinsettia, secretly guessed that it should be the lotus pond not far outside the old house, because when I came back after a night, the clothes on both of them were wet, and there were faint, foul-smelling water plants. smell.

And behind Wen Ying, there is still a girl in pink clothes with her head crossed, a pink lotus pinned to her temple, and a pair of big eyes that look like autumn waters.

"After you take her away, you must find a place to hide. She is born dumb and can't speak. In the fifth year of the Republic of China, her husband died and she threw herself into the river, and then she woke up under the water. Now I have lost that pool." I put other aquatic plants in, she is a woman, and she looks like a ghost, it is okay to continue to deceive that Chen Ke..."

Touching his hair with his fingers that had been washed many times but still smelled a little strange, Jiang Shanglu and Wen Ying hid in their rooms after taking a bath during the day.

The two of them used a fishing net on the shore together to catch them from the depths of the mud. Although the fight at the bottom of the lake was thanks to the help of Wen Ying, who is actually very good at water, However, it was finally safe and sound.

Now the young lady Xiaohe who is being raised in the big bathtub in the back room is vaguely chatting with Deng Tao and Poinsettia outside, and after Wen Ying wipes his hair with a towel, she still looks at it after thinking about it. Looking at Jiang Shanglu in front of him, he said slowly,

"She has a special ability, but she has been polluted by the lake water these years, and her consciousness is not very clear. After recovering, it should be of great use to me. Diyong and I need to take her back to my hometown first. Send her to the depths of Xiaoshan where my grandfather left behind to recuperate for a period of time. This round trip will take about three or four days... You should pay attention to Chen Ke, I always feel that he is doing something wrong. I don’t know if Xiaotao told you, but there are two people around him named only by numbers, who smell very similar to you, you’d better pay attention.”

"Well, I will pay attention to it myself... But you just left without saying a word, and didn't say hello to that Young Master Chen?"

"I asked Diyong to tell him that I have something to do in the temple, but if I stay a few more days, he will probably see that I am not really suppressing suffering."

He doesn't shy away from revealing some things about himself in front of Jiang Shanglu. In fact, Wen Ying seldom explains his thoughts and practices to others in detail, because his personality is indeed innately innate. Tough and decisive and unquestionable.

And thinking of the things they talked about that night while drinking the sweet soup this man made for him, Jiang Shanglu suddenly sighed slowly and looked at him with a smile,

"Then when did you realize there was something wrong with me?"

"... Whenever I touch you or get close to you, you always feel uncomfortable. It's not that I can't see it, and Xiaotao is the same."

He lowered his head and said lightly, the more silent people are, the less likely they are to be provoked. This sentence is fully reflected in Wen Ying. At least before that night, Jiang Shanglu did not think that Wen Ying was actually almost the same. After confirming his identity, and seeing that he seemed to want to ask himself something, Wen Ying, who had a very calm look in his eyes, only held his cold palm and looked into his eyes and said solemnly,

"What I said to that Chen Ke that day, I will tell you again now. I don't think people who have not committed crimes should be punished. From my current standpoint, I should probably choose to stay away from you completely. After all, Differences do not seek each other, my existence also brings you a certain burden, but maybe because it is you, I also have an emotional side, and during our temporary separation, I have thoroughly thought about it."

"I've never had a preference for anything, and I didn't quite understand why some people would have that obsession with others, but from the first time I saw you in Oroqen, I felt as if I suddenly understood this kind of thing. Feeling, maybe we are destined to be natural enemies, but I don't think you will do anything to disappoint me. What happened this time also proves that my thoughts are not wrong. I choose to stay here and wait for you to come back. There is no waiting..."

"I actually saw the things on your body clearly in the tent that day. To me, it is the same as the scar on your face. It is the proof that you are so persistent in wanting to continue living in this world. This only Makes me want to treat you better...I'm glad you're willing to accept me, even endure the pain and let me touch you, and the only thing I can promise you now is that your hard work won't last forever of……"

He paused for a while while talking like this, Wen Ying's face was calm and beautiful, his always too indifferent expression did not compromise the slightest charm of his appearance, and being looked at by his gentle eyes, probably It is also the happiest thing in the world.

"After the flowering period of the poinciana tree arrives, I can take off a section of flowering branch from my tree to make your back bone. At that time, you won't have to suffer because of my existence anymore. Believe me and wait for me, okay? "

"……it is good."

I have been maintaining a calm and hard heart for a long time, and finally because of Wen Ying's unpretentious but touching words, it made me a little sore and bitter, even if I still have something to hide from him in my heart, but Jiang Shanglu But I still feel a little lucky that I can fall in love with such a person.

And when the emotions of the two of them were out of control, this heart-to-heart exchange in broad daylight finally ended up on the bed smoothly.

It was a rare moment of interest, so he straddled Wen Ying's body forcefully and indulgently, pinched him for a while, felt the hot thing between his legs slowly dripping down, and Jiang Shanglu, whose waist was a little weak, let it go. Wen Ying pressed him on the bed and kissed him for a while, then hugged her young man's neck in a particularly good mood and said,

"I'll make you comfortable next time you come back, okay?"

"...how comfortable."

Someone who doesn't like to make such jokes will actually pretend to be so serious and ask himself such nasty words. I don't know if it is true that spring has come, so the tree stumps can also bloom.

And thinking like this, he couldn't help laughing for some reason. The older man who was immersed in lust at the moment only closed his eyes and licked his lips as if aftertaste, and Wen Ying, who rushed above him, looked very special. He replied softly in a hoarse voice,

"You can be as comfortable as you want, and you can be as happy as you want. As long as you feel satisfied, it doesn't matter if you fuck me to death... What do you think?"

……

Two days later, one morning before dawn, Wen Ying and Di Yong took the young lady Xiao He who was fished from the lake and left here for Xiaoshan Forest Park in Y City.

Before getting up, Wen Ying deliberately asked Jiang Shanglu not to get up to see him off, and slept a little longer, and finally kissed his fingers very intimately before letting go of Jiang Shanglu's hand.

Feeling that the strong fragrance of the Phoenix wood was finally gradually away from him, Jiang Shanglu, who was drowsy a little bit subsided in an instant, lay on the bed and thought for a while, and still twitched the corners of his mouth slowly for a long time.

Before they left, they had a last conversation about the current situation of the two of them. Wen Ying basically knew about Jiang Shanglu and Deng Tao's awakening of the Shura body, and also knew that they might have been running around looking for ways to survive because of certain things, while he What he knows most in his heart is that Jiang Shanglu is still hiding at least two things from him.

These two things are precisely the things that Jiang Shanglu can't reveal to him at the moment. Wen Ying, who is always keen like a monster, has no plans to ask him in the short term, which also makes Jiang Shanglu feel a little relieved.

And thinking like this, the man who was lying on the bed alone and looked a little tired suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the dark red bed curtain above his head, and stretched out his pale fingertips to fiddle with the air a few times slowly.

There was a faintly strange and strong floral fragrance spreading in the embroidered bed curtain, and the poppy seeds took root in his body again, but everything was not as easy and beautiful as imagined.

Because at this moment, the big poppies blooming on the bed curtain and even on his chest and arms are no longer the warm and pure bright red at the beginning, but the crow black that makes people feel chills from the bottom of his heart.

Lying on the back among these black poppies, I feel that my soul and body full of holes are panting and moaning with joy and satisfaction. Jiang Shanglu's pale cheeks are surrounded by black poppies, and the strange but gloomy picture is Gives a strong sense of visual impact.

And in his mind, at this moment, he was repeating over and over again what happened that night after he returned to the capital from Shikashi, he did not return here first, but went to another place first... what happened.

……

"How is it? Did it go well this time?"

He had been in constant contact with him for half a year, and the person who was sitting in the dark and still couldn't see his face spoke to him in a very easy-going tone.

"If your two legs are torn to pieces by those dead bodies under the water, and the severed limbs are soaked in the bottom of the water for three full days, and finally you have to wake up because of this disgusting undead ability, you will be forced to wake up again and make mistakes with that dangreyong If the crazy woman fights, you will know whether my progress this time is going well or not."

Although there was still a careless smile on his face, his empty and numb eyes looked very cold. Jiang Shanglu was in a bad mood when he was picked up by that boy Zong Mingyuan at the airport and brought here to meet this person at the first time. Sensing the obvious displeasure on his body at this moment, the elderly man who was sitting alone in the dark, who seemed to be recording something with a pen, only stopped his movements stiffly, and then slowly moved in a good-tempered tone for a while. He raised his head and said to it,

"Don't get angry at me, didn't I hear that your temper has improved a lot?"

"No, I have always been so difficult to serve, you must have heard wrong."

Obviously Jiang Shanglu is already in his thirties this year, but the old man somehow wants to treat him like a wayward little son, maybe because he has worked together for a long time, so when he was young, he actually had a bad temper On the contrary, the old man likes to pamper his bad temper, and thinking about it, the old man with gray temples just shook his head helplessly, and then gently took the initiative to comfort him, saying,

"Xiao Lu, you are the only person I can find who can do this well. You have been very smart since you were a child, and you are also full of talent in writing. Otherwise, I would not have handed over those precious manuscripts and rubbings. In your hands, I know that what happened in the past six months is really cruel and painful for you, and it is the same for...that child, but I swear, when these things are all over, you will be able to live your true selves The life you want, everyone's life can return to peace."

Because of the old man's words, he fell into a brief silence. Jiang Shanglu sat alone in the empty conversation room, but his figure looked very lonely. The old man knew that he was sad, and was even on the verge of extreme mental and physical collapse, so he didn't bother him right away. he.

After a long time, when he saw Jiang Shanglu's hand on his temple and rubbed it slowly, and his posture became willing to communicate with others again, the old man sighed and said slowly to him,

"Tell me slowly, what is the specific situation this time, you can go home before nine o'clock, maybe you can have a meal with those two children."

These words seemed to have moved Jiang Shanglu a little bit, at least he moved his fingers, and after a long time, Jiang Shanglu's dry, hoarse voice like a dying patient slowly rang in the ears of the old man. rang.

"... I was physically dead sixteen hours after I entered Tangra Yumco Lake and clashed with the hyacinth-like implanted humans. The feeling was really terrible, but I realized that I was not actually dead, The age-old genes prompted me to live awake, and then I saw with my own eyes and learned how the water hyacinth promotes its own further evolution by swallowing and digesting corpses."

"So now you have completed the same conversion process as her?" the old man asked him.

"...Yes." Jiang Shanglu replied expressionlessly.

"How long did it take you?"

"...don't remember...but I killed innocent people. That girl, Zhang Ting, actually had a little breath in her lungs, but I ate it."

Hearing this, the tip of the pen stopped abruptly. The old man finally knew why Jiang Shanglu behaved so emotionally out of control after returning to the capital. comforted him with difficulty,

"Even if you don't kill him, Water Hyacinth will still digest her dying. This is what you did unconsciously during the evolution of plant death—"

"But I killed her."

"Xiao Lu...it's not your fault."

The difficult conversation between the two came to a stalemate again. During the period, Zong Mingyuan came in with concern and gave Jiang Shanglu a cup of tea. Seeing that his face was really ugly, he asked him if he needed something to eat first, but rejected his kindness. Holding the hot cup with his fingers, he managed to calm himself down. The expressionless Jiang Shanglu was silent for a while before speaking to the old man again,

"When did things on Chen Ke's side start?"

"...After Wenying and Diyong Jinlian leave with the lotus, you can be alone for a few days before that, of course, if your own body allows... To be honest, I don't really recommend you to be with him again Maintaining this relationship, his memory staying in this fault is actually a kind of protection for the two of you, you..."

"I beg you... I really only have him."

He abruptly interrupted the old man's words, with the corners of his mouth tightly pursed. Although the pale Jiang Shanglu was still smiling reluctantly, his smile was already ugly and difficult. The old man looked at him with a embarrassed face, knowing that even if he Besides, no matter how many reasons there are, these two children who have completely fallen into it will not listen to him, but after thinking about it, he can only slowly close the densely packed notebook in front of him, then raise his head and speak solemnly at Jiang Shanglu open the mouth,

"I understand, don't worry, I won't do anything superfluous to the relationship between Wen Ying and you. If everything goes well, we should be able to quickly resolve the matter between Chen Ke and Chen Anmin within a month. It will be hard for you in the future, we will continue to keep in touch... Now, you can go home and have a good sleep."
