Li Xunhuan and A Fei

Ah Fei has never seen such a strange person.

He wasn't talking about the cute-looking child, or the young and beautiful couple, or the old Taoist who always used a broken fan to pretend to be a fairy—these four were not considered human beings in his eyes, but they could be regarded as human beings. The unreasonable monster who ignored, he meant the middle-aged man.

He has never known the exact age of the middle-aged man. Seeing that he often covered his mouth and coughed, he seemed to be seventy-eight years old, and his eyes seemed to be only. These are a pair of strange eyes, like willow branches blown by the spring breeze, gentle and flexible, It is like sea water under the summer sun, full of pleasant vitality.It was easy for Ah Fei to ask the exact age, but he didn't want to ask, he didn't want to talk to him, even if he said a word, yes, he didn't want to.

Not only did he not want to talk, he didn't want to look at him.I don’t want to look at those strange eyes, I don’t want to look at his tall and straight body, I don’t want to look at his waist that is too thin to hold, I don’t want to look at his undulating curves that are different from most men when he is lying on his side, I don’t want to look at him when he is drinking. The wine dripped down the corner of his mouth, and he didn't want to see his hunched back when he coughed.

Yes, not at all.

Never want to.

He has no father. After his mother died, he lived alone in this icy world, and he would live alone forever. He could already foresee decades of lonely life in the future.

He is used to being a loner, and he doesn't extravagantly seek other people's feelings.His mother is also a silent woman. When his mother was still there, he lived in the same room with her and couldn't speak a few words a day. He didn't learn how to chat with people since he was a child.

His mother has been dead for three years. In the past three years, except for going to the market forty miles away to buy some daily necessities, A Fei spends the rest of the time alone. The lonely life makes him almost forget how to get along with others, until he met Li Xunhuan.

Oh, by the way, although he didn't want to look at him let alone talk to him, he still knew that his name was Li Xunhuan.

Li Xunhuan, Li Xunhuan...a strange person with a strange name, Ah Fei remembered it the first time he heard it.

Li Xun Huan was lying on his back on the top of the kang drinking, he glanced at A Fei who was sitting on the other side of the kang peeling bamboo from the corner of his eyes, and couldn't help sighing.

In the early morning light, the grayish-white sunlight danced on Li Xunhuan's tall nose, casting a light shadow on his face, making the outline of the whole face appear more three-dimensional.His drinking movements are three parts elegant, three parts vicissitudes, and three parts lonely, mixed together, it becomes a certain inexplicable quality that only mature men can have.Like a cold moon at night, like clear water in autumn and winter, like alcohol, like honey, and more like poppies.

Li Xun Huan drank the last sip of wine, shook the wine bag, and found that the wine bag was empty, his expression immediately became sad, and the tiredness in his eyes became heavier.It was not physical tiredness, but inner tiredness, as if he had gone through vicissitudes of life, and no one or anything in the world could arouse his interest.

Without alcohol, Li Xunhuan didn't know what to do.

He turned his head to the kid who was chopping bamboo again.

Maybe he shouldn't be called a kid.

Even though he is only 11 years old, he knows more than many adults in this world, and he has experienced more pain. Li Xunhuan knows that his mother has passed away. At this stage, A Fei is in the most difficult period of struggling to survive in his life. In his previous life, A Fei Such an astonishing swordsmanship was practiced after his mother died while fighting against evil wolves.

11 years old, the age when other children play carefree, A Fei still doesn't know where tomorrow's meal is.

If he does not hunt today, he will starve tomorrow.

The four weirdos said they would take them to see their old friend A Fei, since Li Xun Huan had nothing to do after his rebirth, so they agreed.In the previous life, Ah Fei said that he had traveled overseas for three years and came back to drink the wedding wine with Li Xunhuan and Sun Xiaohong. As a result, Li Xunhuan died of illness a year later, and the two farewell forever.In the first rebirth, Li Xunhuan missed A Fei a little bit.

Li Xunhuan didn't know what kind of drugs the four of them had used, but he had been in a coma all this time, and when he woke up, he saw a miniature version of Ah Fei.

Li Xunhuan never imagined that one day his best friend would become a child whose height was not as high as his chest.He is still a child who looks cute but has cold eyes and never smiles.

Facing the miniature version of Ah Fei, Li Xunhuan didn't know how to treat him.

The most important thing is, Li Xunhuan can no longer drink with A Fei, is he going to spoil the child?Not being able to drink alcohol made Li Xun Huan sad.

"A Fei," Li Xun Huan said, "Get me a bottle of wine?"

Li Xun Huan is the kind of born young master, born with the ability to command others, and make people willing to be commanded.

It's a pity that A Fei is not an ordinary person.

A Fei has not yet learned how to get along with people, he is even more willing to get along with wolves, after all it is easier to get along with wolves.

A Fei stopped chopping bamboo, raised his head, and looked at Li Xun Huan.

The sunshine in the sky gathered in A Fei's eyes at that moment, making Li Xun Huan's heart skip a beat, as if he saw the grown-up A Fei.

That handsome, cold, granite-hard hooligan.

At that moment, Li Xun Huan felt like his heart was hit by something, and instantly softened.

Ah Fei is so young, he has to do so many things, and has to support himself. How much hardship has he endured?

Since I got here out of nowhere, I can't let him suffer anymore no matter what!

Li Xunhuan stood up and walked towards Ah Fei.

"A Fei, are you cutting bamboo to go hunting? Why don't you use a sword? You should use a sword, and you can do it well."

When Li Xunhuan came here, it was the first time he talked so much.

After hearing this, Ah Fei lowered his head, tightly held the sharpened bamboo piece with his right hand, and looked up at Li Xun Huan.

Ah Fei's eyes were as clear as water, and as indifferent as ice, because of their clearness and coldness, they appeared even more pure and incomparable.

Li Xun Huan's eyes are gentle and most importantly, warm.

Such two people looked at each other.

Li Xun Huan smiled at A Fei, expressing his friendliness, and was about to speak when he saw the bamboo in A Fei's hand turned into a white light, "Whoosh!" and stabbed himself.

No one could describe what kind of sword it was. Li Xun Huan could only feel a blur in front of his eyes. The sword energy was so strong that a mere piece of bamboo could emit the forceful sword energy that can only be emitted by a magic weapon!The sharp blade arrives in an instant, as fast as thunder.

Li Xun Huan quickly backed up three feet, like a flying swallow, flew backwards lightly and delicately, when he landed, his face was neither red nor out of breath.

He dodged A Fei's sharp sword effortlessly.

"Why did you attack me?"

Li Xunhuan asked in puzzlement.He could see that A Fei's sword had sword spirit, but no murderous spirit.

"I want to try."

A Fei's answer was as concise as ever, and he never said a word of nonsense.

Li Xun Huan understood, A Fei wanted to try this "sword" and at the same time try his Li Xun Huan's kung fu.

"Are you hostile to me? What are you angry about?" Li Xun Huan was always a smart person, and knew A Fei so well, he could immediately see from A Fei's actions that he was in a bad mood.

Ah Fei said coldly: "If a stranger suddenly came to your house and stayed at your house and refused to leave, wouldn't you be angry?"

Of course Li Xunhuan would not, Li Garden is so big, it can accommodate hundreds of people, he is born to make friends, and he has a kind heart, even if someone he never knew came to borrow him, he would agree, but he can understand A Fei.

For Ah Fei, it was too strange for him to have a group of five people, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a good person.

As soon as those four weirdos came, they rushed to the sky, yelled that it was too late, it was too late, it was a failure, it was a failure, they put Li Xunhuan in A Fei's house, they didn't care about anything, and ran away on their own, Li Xunhuan didn't know who they were , I don't know why they took me to see A Fei, and of course I don't know where they are now.

And Li Xunhuan didn't want to leave anymore.

Now that he's here and finds that A Fei's life is difficult, Li Xunhuan has to stay and take care of his friend.

A Fei has no relatives and no reason in this world, and is alone. When Li Xunhuan thinks of A Fei living alone, he feels a wrenching pain in his heart. He must protect A Fei until he doesn't need protection.In the past, A Fei was as powerful as him, and he regarded A Fei as a life-and-death friend. Now that A Fei is still young, he has the obligation to take care of him when he grows up.

"Who are those four people?"

A Fei opened his mouth coldly.

Li Xunhuan was pleasantly surprised that A Fei took the initiative to talk to him, but unfortunately he didn't know the answer to this question, so he had to answer honestly: "I don't know."

"Why did they come to me?"

Li Xun Huan thought about it, and said a truth that looked like a lie: "I don't know."

"Then you know why you came to me, right?"

"I..." Li Xunhuan paused, he didn't know how to explain that he didn't drink Mengpo soup after his death so he remembered his previous life, and after hearing those four weirdos say he took him to see A Fei and then followed him, the whole thing was too unbelievable, "I don't know what to say."

"A Fei," Li Xun Huan stretched out his hands to hold A Fei's shoulders, this much shorter height made Li Xun Huan momentarily at a loss, "Trust me."

Ah Fei didn't speak, and glanced at the hand on his shoulder.

This was the first time someone told him the word "believe". He had never believed in anyone before, and his mother told him not to trust anyone.

Li Xun Huan withdrew his hand resentfully.

A Fei tied two slices of bamboo together to make a weapon for hunting prey. He remembered that Li Xunhuan said "You should use a sword" just now, and A Fei carved the three characters "Lingyun Sword" on the handle with a knife like a ghost. .

This is his first named "sword" - two pieces of bamboo tied together.

In the past, he used bamboo slices to slash, but now he regards it as a peerless sword.

In the past, he really wanted to have a sword, but his family was so poor that he had no money to buy it. Now he holds the bamboo piece and feels that he owns the whole world.

A Fei didn't say goodbye to Li Xun Huan, he talked more than usual today, he was silent, carrying his sword and the dagger his mother left him, he went straight out of the house and went hunting in the back mountain.

Li Xun Huan followed A Fei anxiously, when he crossed the threshold, he remembered something, his body stopped suddenly, and he didn't dare to follow again.

Li Xunhuan thought that in the previous life, the reason why Ah Fei had practiced such powerful swordsmanship was due to the harsh environment. If he helps him hunt this time, will he ruin the future super swordsman?Or teach him martial arts yourself, and you can also teach him flying knives. With A Fei's intelligence, he will definitely be able to learn it. It's just that A Fei is still A Fei?

Li Xun Huan stayed here to take care of A Fei, if it changed the trajectory of A Fei's life, it was not what Li Xun Huan wanted.After all, Li Xunhuan ruined too many people with his mentality of "I'm doing it for your own good" in his previous life. He dared not make decisions for anyone anymore, and dared not participate in anyone's fate.

He wanted to let nature take its course and let Ah Fei develop his skills in a desperate situation like in his previous life, and eventually become the famous flying swordsman admired by everyone in the world.

Even though Li Xunhuan was worried, he stopped in his tracks.I comforted myself in my heart, didn't A Fei live well by himself before I came?Believe in his hunting ability.

Li Xun Huan's footsteps were very light, almost silent. A Fei had been fighting wild animals all year round, so it was easy to hear Li Xun Huan's footsteps.Ah Fei knew that the man had followed him out of the house, and there was a rippling in his heart, like drinking a bowl of hot soup in winter, warming his internal organs, but of course his face was still numb.When he heard the sound of footsteps suddenly stop, Ah Fei immediately turned around angrily, opened his mouth to ask him "Why don't you follow me", but what he said was:

"Why are you following me!"

Even the expression on his face was still cold, without revealing the slightest true emotion in his heart.

Facing A Fei's questioning, Li Xun Huan felt a little sad. Even in his last life, he was much older than A Fei. In their relationship, Li Xun Huan was always an elder. He really wanted to stand in the way of A Fei. Wind and rain, but it can't, because this wind and rain is A Fei's wealth, and it is the whole reason why A Fei can become A Fei.

Not only can he not protect him from the wind and rain, but he also pretends that he doesn't care about A Fei's suffering at all.He squeezed an awkward smile on his face: "I'm here to remind you, don't forget to buy me wine."

In A Fei's eyes, this awkward smile carried a hint of "acting like a baby".

"If you want to drink, go buy it yourself, I won't buy it for you." A Fei put on a cold face, raised his sword and left without looking back.
