Red dust kills beauty

Thirteen, hide and seek ④

During the New Year, Wu Qiong said that Wu Shang was much better than before, and he was no longer a "disappointing" kid.To show my gratitude, ask me what I would like.

"I ask for nothing," I said to him. "If you want to express your gratitude, please allow me to take his last name."

"..." Wu Qiong raised her eyebrows slightly, playing with taste, "You want to change your surname to Wu?"

I smirked: "You know I don't have a name."

This matter is only good for him, not bad. Sure enough, after making some hypocritical gestures, he agreed to give me a name, and mercifully gave the task of naming me to the witch merchant.

When the witch merchant was called to announce the news, he was shocked.In order to fit the festive atmosphere, Yingzi reluctantly did not rely on other aspects, but let him wear a very cute red pullover sweater with white pompoms, the little one was particularly festive.

I took a hard look at it several times. I have never seen him wear it like this before. It's strange, and I probably won't have a chance in the future.

Until I led him back to the room, he was still in a daze, looking at me unblinkingly with black grape-like eyes.

I suddenly felt an unspeakable tenderness in my heart, and looked at him with a smile: "Young master?"

"...Hmm? Ah, oh. Hmm." He was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say, "Teacher."

I motioned for him to continue.

He hesitated for a while, as if he had made up his mind: "What do you want?" His face was full of unknowing pleading and... panic, and I could read the words engraved on his forehead.

"You want to ask me why I changed my surname to Wu?" I looked at him, "No, I don't covet anything from the Wu family, and I don't want anything. I am for you."

The Witch family, this decayed, greedy, depraved family that was eventually eradicated by the Witch Merchant, although reluctant to admit it, has left a deep imprint on every bone of the Witch Merchant.His flesh and blood, his surname, his talent, his self-cultivation, his character, his thoughts...they are not as simple as digging out a carrot or painting a new coat of paint on the wall. his whole life.

If you have to do that, at least give me this sinful surname.I would like to share with him.

The pupils of the witch merchant trembled slightly, and he seemed to be utterly confused: "But...but, you told me that a name represents a lifetime, and you can't choose it casually."

This is a conversation that happened when he asked me what my name was and I told him I didn't have a name.

Yes, just like people without a family yearn for and fear family, people without a past also value their names very much.In the past, I had countless names, most of which I randomly picked up when I lost my memory. After using it too much, I didn't know what my name was anymore.So in this life, I don't bother to name it.

I have never asked anyone to name me, whether it is Fu Baixue or Zhaoyao, I gave them their initial names.

This is the last part of my life journey, and it is also the beginning of meeting them. It is the end and the beginning. I am willing to wear his surname on my body, and I am willing to die under the name chosen by the witch merchant.

Do you know what that means, witch merchant?

No, you'll never know, and I'll never let you know.

I bent down and held his cheek, lowered my head and kissed him softly: "Yes, so you have to get me a nicer one."

To celebrate the New Year that night, the curfew was lifted, and fireworks could be set off throughout the city. While Yingzi was asleep, I sneaked out the young master, and climbed to the roof of the building with him to watch the fireworks.

Wu Zhai is located in the center of Wuzhou, where you can see the most colorful night view in the city.I still remember how disdainful the witch merchant was to these things in the future, but now, I can see his joy from his eyes focused on looking up at the sky.

"Teacher, look at that, that is so beautiful!"

"Ah."

The flames were reflected in his face, flickering on and off, and he looked at them with a smile, and I just looked at him.

By the time the fireworks were set off one after another, the night was already deep.The witch merchant raised his head and yawned. I wanted to take him back to sleep, but he refused, saying he wanted to stay a little longer.

He must be very excited tonight, I had no intention of disappointing, so I put him in my arms like a glutinous rice ball, only allowing him to show one head, so as not to catch a cold.

The fireworks ended, the lights gradually died down, and as the night deepened, the stars fell on the sky again.

I pointed out the stars one by one to the witch merchants. They don't just mean romance. For me, they have a greater role in pointing out the direction at night.Maybe one time, this knowledge can save my life.

I have taught Xiaobai and Zhaoyao hand in hand, and now I want to teach Shaman.

He pointed to a few stars in the east and asked me: "Teacher, where is that?"

They were scattered in the sky, their light was dim, and they could not be seen at all before, but as the long night progressed to the second half, they showed a little clue.

I smiled when I saw it: "That's Scorpio, your star."

He looked at me confused.

"Scorpio, have you seen those three obvious stars? They are the heart of Scorpio. We used to have a saying that they called it 'Heart'. If it is in summer, it will be a very beautiful and bright star. .”

"But what does this have to do with me?"

I put my chin on the top of his head and smiled: "Because Xinsu has another name, Shang. Shang Xing. You have a very good name, young master, you are the most beautiful star in the sky."

"..." The witch merchant's eyes were as bright as stars, he bit his lips tightly, and suddenly stretched out his arms to hug me tightly.He has always been very wary, and this is the first time he has shown me such unguarded intimacy and trust.

It feels like a wild cat that has always been shy, skinny and scarred. You feed it food and water every day, bandage it and heal its wounds. It will kiss you while eating, but that’s all.Then one day, when you watched it play, it suddenly ran over, snoring happily, while gently rubbing your palm with its cheek.

I stroked his head and asked softly, "Do you want to go down to sleep?"

The witch merchant nodded, tugged at my sleeve, and was led back to the room by me.I didn't turn on the light, for fear of disturbing his sleepiness, I just tucked him in the dark and touched his forehead.Just about to go out, but was stopped.

"teacher."

"what?"

"You said I was Shang Xing, so...is there any Xing Xing who is paired with Shang Xing?"

"A couple?" I asked with a smile, "Xing Xing doesn't like that."

"No, no, what I mean is," he scratched his hair troubledly, embarrassed by his poor vocabulary, "just, your name. I thought about what you could call me all night, if you are also very close to me Lined with stars, wouldn't that be nice?"

I opened my eyes slightly.

In the past, I never understood why I had the name "Witch Ginseng".I used to think that I hated the witch merchant so much in the past, so I deliberately used this to scare him, but now I finally understand.

"Yes." I said, "There happens to be a star that matches Shang's star, and it is equally bright and bright."

"Really?" He said happily, and couldn't wait to sit up from the bed, "What's it called?"

"It's Orion, and the three brightest stars correspond to the star Shang." I looked at him, and a kind of indescribable loneliness and cold slowly climbed to my heart, "It's called Sanxing."

"Shang... ginseng... shangshang..."

He smiled happily.

"Then you can be called Wu Shen."

I sigh.As it should be.

"Thank you, young master."

After changing my name and surname, my status in the Wu family has risen.Others only regard me as a springboard to enter the Wu family by borrowing from the witch merchant. Wu Qiong regards me as half of his subordinates, not a temporary worker who will leave at any time. The first dog leg, when he greeted me every day, his smile seemed to strangle me to death.

But these have nothing to do with me, I only concentrate on raising the children every day, sneak out occasionally, send emails to Fu Baixue, and once even took the time to go to Yanbei to see if Zhaoyao is okay.

In addition, I also used the resources of the Wu family to investigate the matter of the spiritual sea.

During my travels with Xiaobai, I checked out several famous mother liquor pools in the world. It was convenient for me to sort out the news at Wu’s house, and made them into secret letters, set a time, and sent them more than ten years later. In your usual account.

Before jumping into the mother liquor pool for the second time, I swore I would destroy the spiritual sea, and I was not out of anger.Although this task may not be completed in my lifetime, it is still possible to collect all the information I can to prevent those three unlucky ghosts from repeating my mistakes.

Just when I dug up almost all the information about the Wu family, I was playing peek-a-boo with a witch merchant, and I came across Wu Qiong's scandal.

He eats people.

We accidentally discovered his meat cellar, and there are all young and beautiful women and children inside, as if on display or air-dried, each body is suspended in the air by hooks, and the skin is smeared with fine white salt—— Is this really fucking jerky?

I looked at the witch merchant in astonishment, he bit his lip and showed no surprised expression.

"You..." My thoughts were confused, I managed to maintain my sanity and walked out lightly, and returned to a safe area, "You already knew?"

He didn't look at me, his lower lip was almost bitten by his teeth, and he nodded reluctantly.

I suddenly understood why his mother dressed him up like this.It's better to be eaten than to be eaten.Right.

I used to think that Wu Qiong was a rotten person, but I didn't expect him to make me sick so much.

"Let's run away," I said to him, "from here."

"..." The witch merchant made a confused nasal sound.

"From now on, without your father, without your stepmother and brother, and without Shining, Aunt Yingzi and the housekeeper, there are just the two of us."

The witch merchant stared blankly at me, as if looking at a sweet dream that I dare not expect.

Next chapter: Peekaboo ⑤

I showed him the newly obtained account card.

"From now on, I will be your father. We have a family now."

?April [-]st

When I wrote these chapters, my mind was full of "deep love" Orz

In Juan Erli, Lianhua described sleeping with Ah Ning as a means at the beginning.He really didn't have that kind of interest in Aning at the beginning, the two of them had a father-son relationship, including Zhao Zhao.It is Xiaobai and Aning who are interesting from the beginning to the end, until Xiaobai becomes Laobai.

It's just that the relationship between father and son changed later (.

A popular science: the New Year is January and February, which is actually when the Orion star is at its brightest.Scorpio and him are one south and one north, one winter and one summer. At this time, the light of Shang Xing is very weak.So the article will say that they were watching fireworks in the first half of the night, because only in the second half of the night in winter, when San Xing disappears, can Shang Xing be seen.

It's the last chapter
