The world of mortals is just right

The next day it rained lightly.

Xie Lingying took out two paper umbrellas from the wooden umbrella bucket in the lobby, which was a dual-purpose umbrella without sunscreen and waterproof coating.

Tree galls are hard lumps that grow naturally on trees. They are often made into wine glasses or study toys. It is rare that they can be used as umbrella barrels.

She is probably hundreds of thousands of years old, and the umbrella can be stored in this kind of umbrella bucket. Jiang Huan asked, "Antique umbrella?"

Xie Lingying took it lightly, "69 Taobao free shipping."

Of course, in order to highlight the style of her homestay, the painting on the umbrella was written by Senior Sister Xie, the Head Master.

Jiang Huan looked outside the eaves to see the size of the raindrops, and saw Xuan Chang approaching.

His umbrella was painted with old or tender leaves weathered by the rain, surrounded by a silhouette of a white peony, a single flower, not even given a front, that was the loneliness of an extremely rich man.Looking at Xuan Chang's face below, Jiang Huan's heart missed two beats.

Xie Lingying and Cheng Sisi watched, and it was obvious that one umbrella was enough for each of them, but Jiang Huan rushed under Xuan Chang's umbrella, trying to squeeze together with Xuan Chang.

Xie Lingying frowned with boredom.

Cheng Sisi shook her head.

Thoughts of "this kind of virtue", "it's easy to change the country and hard to change the nature", and "how come it's still like this after so many lives" flashed in the hearts of both of them.

Xuan Chang raised the umbrella and let Jiang Huan approach.Standing under the umbrella in the drizzle, Jiang Huan raised his chin towards the two people in the lobby, "What are you doing?"

Xie Lingying said, "Take something."

Cheng Sisi looked at his master and uncle, and then at the head of the sect, with a look of anticipation on his face, "Look at the excitement."

A group of four people braved the rain to the back mountain, Xie Lingying muttered a formula, and a stone path suddenly appeared among the dense trees in the back mountain.

The bluestone is densely covered with green whips, and it takes less than thirty steps to walk up the stone path, and the surrounding area is clear and cheerful.

The stone path is wider and straighter, and the eyes are more open. There are bells and drums on both sides of the mountain gate, and the scripture room, alchemy room, and jingshe are inward.

The buildings are all made of wood, with cornices and carved windows, which are exquisite and light, but do not need to be painted, keeping the most original wood color.

The most abrupt place among them is a strangely large copper pagoda behind the jingshe.

That tower has been around for at least a few hundred years, and the copper on the surface has rusted green.It is tall and big, three times the height of the Abode, and has at least seven or eight floors. Even if it is placed in the CBD high-rise complex, it can be seen from a long distance.

Jiang Huan looked around, "It's not grand enough."

Xie Lingying said, "There are five people in total, do you expect to build a Qingyang Palace?"

Jiang Huan walked towards the pagoda while arguing with her. On the way, he passed the pine tree outside Dan's room. He couldn't help but reach out and touch it twice.

The four of them gathered under the tree with four paper umbrellas. Cheng Sisi recalled, "I haven't been back for a long time. I remember... there was always a big squirrel on this tree, and I haven't seen it grow into a monster for so many years." .”

Over time, mottled green whips grow on pine trees and stones.

Jiang Huan is now a paper figurine, and Xuan Chang holds an umbrella for him, which is tilted towards his side.When he finished touching the pine trees and looking at the stones, he was still dry, and Xuan Chang's shoulders were already soaked by the drizzle.

After entering the tower, Xuan Chang put away his umbrella, and Jiang Huan asked, "Spoiler spoiler, what am I?"

Xuan Chang smiled and took him in. There were no lights inside the tower, and the space was much smaller than the outside. The height was only six or seven meters, which was only equivalent to the height of a high-ceilinged villa. The ground was about 40 square meters, more than enough for four people to stand on.

Jiang Huan didn't have much research on ancient architecture, so the first thing he felt when he came in was that it was weird.

He realized that something was wrong, "Who would spread the tiles inwards—" What's more, the black tiles the size of a wheel densely covered the entire interior of the tower.

He paused before he finished speaking, realizing that it was not a tile.

Those dusty ones, arranged in layers, are... scales.

The space is really too big, and these black scales are too shocking.

"What the hell am I?"

Xuan Chang held his hand, and Jiang Huan's feet were blown by the wind, gently lifted by an invisible force, and suspended in mid-air.

He looked down in surprise, and Xuan Chang's lips could not help but smile, leading him higher and higher.

Jiang Huan finally saw the whole picture, the huge black body inside the tower.

That body was entrenched in the tower, and they were standing in a hollow space just now.Jiang Huan could only see circles of black scales, layer upon layer, spiraling up endlessly, making one's back numb.

Am I an Amazon python?

Xuan Chang took him to the top of the tower, and he confirmed it was not.

This is a black snake, maybe it can't be called a snake.Its eyes are like those of other snakes, without eyelids, and they are open even in deep sleep, but the eyes are like burnt ashes, without any luster or color.

The most bizarre thing is that it has a sharp horn like a narwhal on the top of its head, which is in a spiral shape and looks like a spear. Although it is covered with ash, it can still be seen that the background color is the red color of burning fire.

After being a human being for more than 30 years, he was slaughtered by reptiles.After slaughtering it, I found out that I was also a reptile, or a reptile of unknown species.

Jiang Huan stretched out his hand and touched the single horn of the huge sealed snake, which was longer than his whole body.Jiang Huan couldn't feel the heat or cold, but maybe it was because he knew that snakes were cold-blooded animals, or maybe it was because he had left them here for too long, when his palm touched the horns, his heart felt cold and cold.

Touching his hand full of ashes, Jiang Huan clicked his tongue, "The apprentice he accepted is really bad. The old man in the family can't get out of bed to be a child, remember to turn over. No matter how much dust has accumulated, he won't wipe it off."

Cheng Sisi and Yi Yi didn't dust him off, but they made him wait for 400 years.

Xuan Chang had a good attitude, "I'll wipe it for you when you come back."

The light at the top of the tower was better than that at the bottom. Jiang Huan stared into his eyes and asked nonchalantly, "You really want me to turn back into a snake?"

It is understandable that he was not ready to return to this body. In this life, Jiang Huan has always believed that he is a human being. Who can accept a terrifying original form without any resistance.

Xuan Chang said, "I can wait for you."

Jiang Huan interrupted, his eyes seemed to shoot fire, "I ask you, do you want me to change back?"

Xuan Chang looked at Jiang Huan, no matter how many times he had been reincarnated or how many years, Jiang Huan had the same expression when he pressed him.Obstinate, rebellious, oppressive.

Xuan Chang said calmly, "Yes."

Jiang Huan's lips were tightly lined, and after a while, "Okay. I'll go back when you're ready."

That night, when Xuan Chang went to take a shower, Jiang Huan stood by the window and teased the lush asparagus in the urn with his hands.

Hearing the sound of water downstairs stopped and Xuan Chang came out, he asked, "When?"

Xuan Chang and Xie Lingying discussed when to let Jiang Huan return to his original body to survive the thunder disaster, and a new lightning protection array is already in preparation.

Xuan Chang said, "Four days later."

Jiang Huan nodded, turned around and hugged Xuan Chang, smelling the shower gel on his body, "Green tea?"

"White tea."

Jiang Huan hugged Xuan Chang's waist and pushed him into the bed. There was a small table in the canopy bed, and there was a small antique lamp.

Jiang Huan said, "No mood."

Xuan Chang was hugged by his waist and leaned against the bed, with a touch of his finger, the electric light turned into a candle.

Jiang Huan asked, "I used to be a snake, so was it a viviparous?"

Horns grew out of the mother's womb and stabbed her to death. Xuan Chang didn't want to mention this incident again, but since this incident happened, it is likely that she was born viviparously.

"should be."

Jiang Huan asked again, "Then I used to be a cold-blooded animal, do you think it's cold if I hug you?"

Xuan Chang said, "You are born capable of using fire, and your body temperature is not low."

Jiang Huan let out an "oh", holding Xuan Chang with both arms like iron hoops.

After hugging like this for a long time, the candle was shortened, the candle tears flowed down intermittently, and the candlelight became dim.

A pair of scissors appeared out of nowhere in Xuan Chang's hand, and he cut off a section of the candle wick, and the bed tent was brightened immediately.

"I've heard the saying about cutting candles." Jiang Huan looked at the dancing light for a while, "I haven't cut it yet."

Did he want to say that you used to cut candles while talking to me?But did not ask the exit.

Jiang Huan let go and took off his clothes.The body under the clothes is no different from half a month ago.At that time, it was still a warm flesh and blood body, but now it is just a few pieces of yellow paper.

The real flesh and blood of this life had long been buried under the soil under the tree, mixed with the mud of the asparagus bamboo that was sent to Xuan Chang.

He grabbed Xuan Chang's hand without hesitation, and pressed it to his chest, and there was no longer a strong and lively heartbeat coming from this hand.

He turned over to Xuan Chang, looked at that face and said, "I'm sorry." Knowing that you don't want to use either the inflatable or the rechargeable one, and you don't want to do this with paper figurines. Do it yourself.

But even if I want to force you, I can only force you.

He wanted to say something else, Xuan Chang pressed the back of his neck and kissed his lips.

Gentleness wets him like rain, and it rains again outside the window, hitting the window continuously, Jiang Huan keeps looking at Xuan Chang without moving his eyes.
