[Rebirth] Talking Fox

The two walked a few more steps and stood at the top of the arch bridge.The scenery seen from the heights is different. Looking back and forth, you can see the moving figures under the bright lanterns. Even if everyone raises their faces, they can’t see their expressions clearly.

The river under the bridge twists and turns for a long way, and there are some sparse houses facing the river. There are big red lanterns hanging on the back door of each house, which are reflected in the river water and sway with ripples.

On the river in the distance, two painting boats slowly sailed one behind the other. The incense curtains swing lightly, the sound of silk and bamboo sounds, and there are very beautiful long strings of lanterns hanging under the corners of the eaves on all sides. In the painting boat, the lights are bright, the figures are vivid, bustling and bustling.

Gradually, some young men and women appeared on the shallow embankments on both sides of the river, each holding a lantern in his hand, most of which were in the shape of a lotus, holding his palms to reflect his expression of happiness or worry.Get close to the river, squat down and make a wish, put the lotus lantern on the water and push it lightly, watching your own lantern drifting away with the unspoken wish.

For a time, the dark river surface was decorated with lanterns like the starry sky under the night, bright and eye-catching.

Bai Li was unusually quiet, looking at the bustling area under the bridge, he couldn't help but look up at the night sky.There are stars on the ground, but there are no stars in the sky, but there is a bright moon in the sky, bright and round, which makes his heart bright.

Ah Qing was by his side, God did not fail him in the end.

You Qing looked at his peaceful side face and flowing eyes, couldn't help but clenched his hands tightly, his eyes drifted inch by inch on his face, as if there was nothing to see around him, and the only thing that could be seen was the one around him. this person.

After the Lantern Festival, all the hustle and bustle here will end. The prosperity of the world is nothing more than that, after all, it is just a cloud and smoke. Only the person around you is the most cherished and nostalgic.

Whether it's quiet or lively, time can't stay, as long as there is such a person by your side, there is nothing else you can ask for in this life.

Feeling his gaze, Bai Li turned to look at him, the corners of his eyes couldn't hide the sparkle, and his voice choked up: "Ah Qing, I'm so happy to be with you!"

You Qing felt a dull pain in his heart, and raised his hand to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, feeling that he had sinned deeply: "What a fool..."

Some people who came and went noticed their actions and looked at them curiously, but they couldn't tell whether Bai Li was a man or a woman for a while. If it was a man, the intimacy between the two was a little hard to understand. There was less femininity of a woman, and in the end because I was in a hurry to watch the dragon lantern dance, I just glanced at it and moved on.After all, they are irrelevant passers-by.

The people on the bridge were constantly flowing and became a moving scene. On the contrary, these two people stood quietly at the bridge and became the eye-catching and beautiful protagonists on the stage.

Usually they are just two of them, Bai Li's state of mind doesn't cause any big disturbances, if You Qing treats him nicely, he will be happy, if You Qing deliberately teases him, he will pretend to be angry, every frown and smile is because of his actions alone.

Being in such a lively and noisy atmosphere at this time, Bai Li suddenly discovered that everyone has joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys, and they narrated their thoughts in a small lantern, floating with the river, as if taking their thoughts away.

A person's life is only a few decades, but he has lived for thousands of years since he can remember.He spent thousands of years silently accompanying You Qing, and now he finally got what he wanted, his mood was so turbulent that tears fell down uncontrollably.

You Qing wiped his tears for him, but instead made him cry more and more fiercely, as if he couldn't finish wiping away, feeling anxious and painful, he raised his hands to wipe his face with his hands, and said softly: "Fool, hurry up!" do not Cry."

Bai Li sniffed and looked at him without blinking, but because his eyes were blurred by water vapor, he kept blinking: "I'm just happy..."

You Qing sighed in his heart: How can it be so simple to be happy?How can the grievances of the millennium be expressed with two drops of tears?

Bai Li was indeed aggrieved, but he was pure in heart, and the joy in his heart was greater than the grievance, so he thought it was pure joy.It took a thousand years to get pity from one person, how can there be no reason not to be wronged?

He didn't cry so wantonly before, because no matter how hard he was, there was nowhere to complain, but now You Qing finally likes him, loves him, and can accommodate everything about him, his grievances are like a dam overflowing The flood was out of control.He cared about You Qing, so he was wronged, and now that You Qing cared about him, he could vent his grievance.

After all, the word "grievance" is actually a luxury, and it cannot be said easily.

You Qing made him cry until his heart broke, and hugged him in his arms, regardless of the crowd coming and going, he patted his back and comforted him softly, but he didn't stop him, only hoping that he could cry in his heart to his heart's content up.

Bai Li was sobbing and talking nonsense, he could only say he was happy, tired from crying, and finally rested, raised his red and swollen eyes to look at him, with a blushed face: "Ah Qing, are you secretly laughing at me?"

You Qing felt distressed for a while, but was so amused by his appearance that he wanted to laugh, sighed and rubbed his face, and said in a low voice: "I will take care of everything in the future, you can cry if you want to cry, and laugh if you want to laugh." , Don’t keep your worries in your heart, you know?”

Bai Li laughed through his tears: "What's the matter if you don't take it to heart?"

You Qing has long been used to his emotions that come and go quickly. Seeing him smile, you know that he is really happy, so she couldn't help but feel relieved, and said with a smile: "You idiot can still think clearly, you really have to look at it with admiration. gone."

"Again, I'm stupid..." Bai Li took him by the hand and laughed again, "You know what's on my mind!"

"Well, I was stupid this time. I knew it and asked." You Qing held his hand tightly in his sleeve, and said softly, "Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat roast chicken."

Bai Li's eyes lit up instantly, and he shouted happily, "I'm starving to death!"

On the street not far away, Xue Chang stood quietly for a long time, not wearing luxurious clothes, only a light-colored long gown, which made him look like jade, but his expression was somber, causing the crowd behind him to rush, almost standing still Unsteady on your feet.

The guard in gray behind hurriedly stepped forward to support him, his eyes were dark and his brows were slightly frowned, and said respectfully: "My lord, it's better to go back and rest."

Xue Chang looked at the back of Qiaotou holding his hand away, unable to tell how much pain he felt in his heart, with a wry smile on his lips, he said in a low voice: "I think he really doesn't like to be lively..."

The guard glanced at him, pursed his lips, lowered his eyes and said: "Your Excellency just came to the other courtyard, did you also want to see him?"

Xue Chang glanced at him sideways, raised one eyebrow, and his smile did not fade: "You talk a lot today."

The guard hurriedly stepped back half a step, his face as calm as water: "This subordinate dare not."

"Forget it..." Xue Chang waved his hand, "I don't blame you, what are you doing so panic?" Then he walked towards the bridge.

The guard paused, and hurriedly followed: "My lord, this is the end of the matter, you'd better go back and rest earlier, so as not to be troubled by seeing you in vain again."

Xue Chang stepped forward and said with a casual smile: "What are you worrying about? Just snatch him over?"

"A grown-up's heart is like a mirror, so he will definitely not do such foolish things."

Xue Chang stopped and looked back at him: "You will block me."

"The subordinates dare not, but they just don't understand, what does the lord like about him? Why are you so interested..."

"You really talk a lot today."

The guard paused, and quickly bowed his head: "This subordinate is Chao Yue."

Xue Chang stared at him silently for a moment, leaned closer to him, and said in a deep voice, "Do you like me?"

The guard was startled, and took half a step back to distance himself from him: "This subordinate dare not."

"Don't dare?" Xue Chang chewed on his words, smiled, turned around and walked up the bridge, heard the steady footsteps behind him, did not look back, walked to the position where Bai Li had stood before, and then walked up to the bridge. He walked again, but stood still, looking at the lanterns on the river, and fell silent for a while.

"I have no way of understanding, so why bother?" Xue Chang said suddenly.

The guard lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, as if he hadn't heard his words.

But Xue Chang continued on his own: "It's rare to see such a transparent and exquisite person... But it's a step too late..."

"It's cold at night, my lord wears less clothes today, let's go back and rest."

"Whispering." Xue Chang glanced at him impatiently, seeing him standing there like a Buddha, couldn't help feeling funny again, waved his hands and sighed, "Forget it, let's go back."

You Qing bought a delicious roast chicken for Bai Li, tore off a chicken leg and handed it to him, wrapped the rest in oil paper, took his free hand, and led him to the direction of the dragon dance .

Bai Li gnawed the chicken leg until only the bone remained, brushed it clean, and continued to hold it in his hand when there was no place to throw it away, then took the other one that You Qing tore off, gnawed it twice and handed it to his mouth : "Ah Qing, you eat too!"

You Qing deliberately teased him: "I'm not crying, I'm not hungry at all."

Bai Li made him feel a little embarrassed, and scolded him: "I knew you would laugh at me!" Having said that, she was still very happy in her heart, knowing that he didn't like to eat these greasy foods in the first place. He continued to chew on it without hesitation.

By the time I rushed to the place where the dragon lantern was performed, the whole chicken in my hand had been gnawed to the point where there were only scattered bones left.

Seeing that there was not even a single piece of meat left on these bones, You Qing couldn't help laughing, wrapped the bones in oiled paper, led him through an alley to the river, threw the bones on the ground aside, and soon A yellow dog from a nearby family came and bit it away.

The two washed their hands by the river, and walked back through the alley.Bai Li saw a tree that was very easy to climb at the entrance of the alley from a distance, and said pleasantly, "Ah Qing, why don't we climb the tree and go to the roof to see it!"

It is not yet spring, and the tree is still bare without half a leaf, but the thickness of the branches can be clearly seen.You Qing took a look, relieved, nodded and smiled: "Listen to you."

Bai Li was overjoyed, pulled him and ran over quickly: "Ah Qing! I'll come first!" Then he let go of his hand, ran up and sat on the branch of a tree, poking his head out to meet the swimmer. Qing smiled and waved.

You Qing grew up in the mountains, so it's easy to climb trees, but he is much better than Bai Lisiwen, and he can easily climb up by lifting the hem of his clothes.

Seeing him coming up, Bai Li climbed up two more times with his butt pouted, got on the roof, sat on the beam and continued to wave at him, looking very excited. When You Qing followed suit, he pointed down: "You Look! This way you can see much more clearly than those fools below!"

Seeing him calling others stupid, You Qing couldn't help laughing, and took him into his arms: "Yes, you are still smart."

"That's natural!" Bai Li laughed triumphantly, and just after laughing, he turned his head and stared at You Qing in amazement, making him puzzled.

You Qing touched his face: "What's wrong?"

Bai Li suddenly narrowed his eyes, hugged his waist and rubbed against his chest fiercely, raised his head and grinned at him and said, "Ah Qing! You are not a scholar! How dare you climb onto the roof of someone's house just like me !Ha ha ha ha!"

The dragon lantern below took off and rolled, and the crowd applauded.

You Qing pinched his face, smiled, and couldn't help but leaned over to kiss his lips.Bai Li clenched his hands on his back, and his contented moan was drowned out by the boiling human voice.
