Yue Qiluo got angry and ran to Wuxin and Bai Liuli's house to lose her temper.

Wu Xin felt sorry for the loud sound of her slap on her ash desktop, so she persuaded her, "Okay, it's not like you don't know that you'd be a hooligan if you hold hands these days. Besides, Zhang Xianzong's hobby, you're not bad." Know."

Yue Qiluo stared at him: "What hobby?"

"Did you forget that before Zhang Xianzong met you, he went to the brothel every day to sleep with a twelve- or thirteen-year-old girl, and he had eight concubines?" Wuxin recalled, "Shen Jianli went to the brothel to listen to the little girl's singing at that time."

Bai Liuli added in a timely manner: "Isn't Liu Zigu also abducting a girl from a good family and stepping on two boats."

Yue Qiluo grabbed a pot of soles and knocked out the door.

Yue Qiluo slapped the table again, and said angrily: "How dare he, Zhang Xianzong, molested the little girl!"

Wuxin squatted in the corner, took out a handful of melon seeds and knocked them.

"I see," Bai Liuli slipped back from the door, and said smugly, "The person convicted of hooliganism now, besides improper relationship between men and women, may also be a rabbit master."

Wuxin scattered the melon seeds on the ground, stood up and looked at Bai Liuli: "You can't talk nonsense."

Yue Qiluo stared straight at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

"That's right..." Bai Liuli squinted at Yue Qiluo's face, and took a step aside, "That means he likes men."

With a splitting headache, Wuxin pushed Bai Liuli out the door: "Go out, what else will you do but make trouble?"

Turning around, Yue Qiluo's five nails were rustling on the table, sighed inadvertently, walked up to Yue Qiluo and sat down: "Hey, Yue Qiluo, look at you. Even if Gu Zhi really committed some crime of hooliganism so what?"

"He can't," Yue Qiluo cast a glance at Wu Xin, lowered her voice, "He said in his previous life that he wanted to marry me, but in this life...why doesn't his words count."

Wuxin smiled: "Yue Qiluo, I don't know you anymore. Didn't you used to be all-powerful and look down on Zhang Xianzong as a mortal?"

Yue Qiluo's face turned red and white, and she simply put on a vicious expression, and slapped her hand on the table: "If Zhang Xianzong dares to like others, I will peel his skin!"

"Are you willing?" Wu Xin glanced at her, "Besides, Tang Shanhai was still married to Xu Bicheng at that time, and I didn't see you peeling his skin."

"Then I'll peel off his good friend!"

This is the truth, thinking of Xu Bicheng and Qing'er's end inadvertently, he couldn't help but shudder.Yue Qiluo is not an ordinary person, and it is also unusual for her to drink vinegar.Seeing Yue Qiluo's face flushed with anger, he went to comfort her again: "I think this matter is mostly Niu Darong's nonsense, hooliganism is not a light crime - if he is a rabbit master, he might even be shot."

Yue Qiluo understood this truth in her heart, but she still couldn't get angry.She thinks she spent 60 years looking for Zhang Xianzong and suffered so much.Zhang Xianzong still wants to like others, it is too heartless.She couldn't get over her anger, so she simply left Gu Zhi alone for several days, until he was confused, so she knocked on Wuxin's door for help.

Wuxin was rubbing cigarettes under the kerosene lamp. He was used to smoking before, and he was not short of cigarettes.When he arrived in the countryside, it was difficult to buy cigarettes. He was very lazy and earned little work points. He relied on Yue Qiluo to help him with his daily bread, so he couldn't afford cigarettes.This handful of shredded tobacco was obtained by saving his milk for two days. He counted the cigarettes inadvertently, and sighed bitterly.

"Gu Zhi, if you want to know what's wrong with Yue Qiluo, just go and give me the whole pack of cigarettes, and I'll tell you."

Gu Zhi smiled wryly: "Forget it, where can I get cigarettes for you?"

"Hey, don't go." Wuxin was bored, seeing that Gu Zhi was about to leave, she hurriedly called him to stop, "I'm kidding you, sit down, I'll tell you slowly."

Gu Zhi sat down and looked at Wu Xin with a student face.

"Gu Zhi, do you know why Yue Qiluo fell in love with you?"

Gu Zhi shook his head.

"Forget it, the matter between you two is too complicated, I can't say too much as an outsider." Wuxin looked at Gu Zhi and fell into deep thought, "Tell me, what happened to the hooliganism you committed when you were in Guangdong? "

Gu Zhi's expression changed: "How do you know?"

Wuxin also changed color, said: "Is this really the case?"

Gu Zhi didn't speak, and rolled up his sleeves for Wu Xin to see.A long scar stretched from three inches from his wrist to his elbow. It was old, but the scar was so deep that the flesh had sunk in.Wuxin took a deep breath and said, "How did you do it?"

"In Guangdong, they were beaten with a cane during the critique, and someone took an iron whip, and that's how it was." Gu Zhi put down his sleeves with a sullen face, "Niu Darong is in the same city as me, and he also participated in that critique."

"So your crime...?"

"It's old-fashioned, bourgeois, revisionist. Later, someone came up with a few letters and accused me of being a homosexual." Gu Zhi paused and looked at Wu Xin, "The person who accused me was Niu Darong."

Gu Zhi unbuttoned his shirt, and showed Wuxin the terrifying scars on his chest.Wuxin felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, and coughed: "Button it up, and tell me, what enmity do you have with Niu Darong?"

Gu Zhi smiled wryly: "No grievance, no enmity."

"That's weird, I can't figure it out. I was also in the city in those years, and I saw homosexuals criticized. They were either criticized for being crazy, or they were shot. How do you...? "

"There is not enough evidence, those letters... are not actually mine," Gu Zhi sighed, "You know, I am not..."

"I know," Wu Xin interrupted him with her hand out, "but they charged you with just a few unwarranted letters?"

Gu Zhi smiled: "If you want to commit a crime, there is nothing wrong with it."

Wuxin is also dumb, he knows what it's like to be unable to argue in this day and age.Before he was in the city, he didn't have an identity certificate, he was in hiding, and he was gossiped about, so he wished he could be pulled out and criticized.If you want to punish a person, a hundred mouths can turn white into black, so how can there be room for the parties to argue?

Gu Zhi asked him: "Is Qiluo angry because of this?"

Wuxin said enthusiastically, "I'll go and explain to her, and she won't be angry."

"Don't," Gu Zhi stopped him, "You still don't want to tell her about this."

"Why?" Wu Xin didn't understand.

"Although I haven't known her for a long time, I can also understand her personality." Gu Zhi rubbed Wuxin's cigarette in his hand and looked at him quietly, "Let me ask you, if Qiluo knew about this, would she What will you do?"

"She knew about it, it's nothing more than—" Wuxin paused for a moment, and suddenly realized, "You are afraid that Yue Qiluo will stand out for you."

"The situation is tense now, and everyone is scared. Niu Darong is the backbone of the educated youth, and his words are very important here, and I..." Gu Zhi smiled bitterly, "Qi Luo has helped me too much, I can't let her take any more risks .”

"But if you don't say it, she will misunderstand that you are—"

"Misunderstand, let's misunderstand. If Qiluo can be safe, I will not let her save my life."

Looking at Gu Zhi's appearance, Wuxin couldn't bear it: "Hey, you don't have to do this. The grievances between the two of you are too much to be counted."

Gu Zhi couldn't understand: "What grievances?"

"Didn't Yue Qiluo call you by another name?"

"Yes, once she called me Zhang Xianzong." Gu Zhi recalled, "She also called me Tang Shanhai, Shen Jianli, and Liu Zigu. I asked her but she didn't say anything. She just said that I don't remember anything and I don't owe you anything." in debt."

"In this way, if you want to know the truth, go to Yue Qiluo's bed and find a small box." Wuxin raised his interest and told him, "Take this little box and ask her, she will probably explain the whole story to you."

Gu Zhi smiled: "Sometimes I really don't understand you guys, you are so weird, like a banished fairy who came out of the mountains, and never belonged here."

Wuxin also smiled and said: "When you know the truth, it won't be too late to say that we are banished immortals."

Gu Zhiyi went like that, he knew Yue Qiluo liked to be clean, so he boiled a pot of hot water for her to wash.But Yue Qiluo was not in the room, the door was ajar, he put the water basin on the ground, steaming.Yue Qiluo tidied up the area very cleanly, and the quilts of peony flowers were neatly folded.Gu Zhi remembered Wuxin's words, so he went to the bedside to search, but there were none in the closet, nor by the pillow.He pinched the square pillow, and suddenly felt that the cotton pillow was unusually hard, so he picked up a pair of scissors from the basket next to it, cut the pillow open, and there was indeed a small wooden box sewn inside.

Gu Zhi took the wooden box in his hand, and saw that it was made of sandalwood, the box was carved finely, and it was a valuable item.The button was gilt-tipped, Gu Zhi pulled the buckle off, and the box was covered with a piece of old porcelain blue silk fabric, and an emerald pendant lay on the silk satin.The top-quality jade, but there is a blood spot in the center of the jade pendant, and there are a few more cracks, so it is worthless.

Gu Zhi held the jade pendant in his hand, he felt warm and cool to the touch, but felt a headache for no reason, so he put down the jade pendant to get the piece of silk.When I picked it up, I realized that it was actually a cheongsam. It was exquisitely cut, but there was a big hole on the right shoulder, and the edge was slightly scorched black. Old blood stained half of the cheongsam.The more Gu Zhi looked at it, the more familiar it became, but no matter what, he couldn't remember where he had seen it before. As he looked at it, he gradually became dizzy, and his eyes also turned black.Suddenly someone from behind called him: "Gu Zhi!" His whole body was shocked and his consciousness came back to him.

Looking back, it was Yue Qiluo who came back. Seeing the cheongsam in his hand and the wooden box on the edge of the bed, he was stunned: "Why did you steal my pillow?"

Gu Zhi smiled awkwardly: "Wu Xin asked me to hold this box and ask you the story in it."

Yue Qiluo's face darkened, and she came over and put the things on the table. It turned out that she had gone out to exchange wool with someone.The weather is getting warmer, and the wool is not so difficult to change. She thought about knitting slowly by herself, and in autumn, she and Gu Zhi would both be able to wear a sweater to keep warm.Gu Zhi was standing by the bed, still clutching the cheongsam in her hand, she felt pain in her heart when she saw it, she turned her head, and there was a basin of steaming water under the bed. "What do you fetch hot water for?"

"You don't like to go to the public bath, so I'll boil water for you to wash."

Yue Qiluo was very regretful: "I washed it with the cold water pipe from the cafeteria."

Gu Zhi put down the cheongsam and walked over: "Then wash your feet."

Yue Qiluo sat on the edge of the bed and let Gu Zhi take off the cotton socks for her. Her feet were only the size of a palm, and she could hold them with one slender hand.She looked at Gu Zhi quietly, and remembered that more than 60 years ago, her ankle was injured, and she was pedaling barefoot in someone's arms, with a cold copper button on the sole of her foot.She sighed: "Gu Zhi, you really look like Zhang Xianzong."

"Really?" Gu Zhi smiled, dipped her feet into the hot water, and a warm current tingled all over her body, "You always call me Zhang Xianzong, but who is Zhang Xianzong?"

"To be honest, don't be afraid of me." Yue Qiluo sighed, "You knew that I was not an ordinary person, but you didn't know that I have lived for thousands of years? I practiced soul art when I was young, so that my soul would not be hurt or not. Extinct. You see I am 15 years old now, but I have actually lived 60 years in my life."

Gu Zhi didn't speak, and listened quietly, only the sound of water splashing in the room.

"That Wuxin is an old monster. He has no soul, and his body will not be broken no matter how much he struggles. Hu Si used to be a spirit fox, but later he became a wizard in Xikang, named Bai Liuli." Yue Qiluo lowered her head and stared at Gu Zhi's body. On the top of the head, "Your name was Liu Zigu more than 1000 years ago. After I died, you died too. In the early years of the Republic of China, you became Zhang Xianzong."

Yue Qiluo didn't want to go on, she didn't want to mention these things, so she skipped it. "Later, Zhang Xianzong's soul disappeared, and I searched for your soul all over the world. I have been to Shanghai and Chongqing. When I was in Guangdong, you were not born. Later, when I went to the inland, I knew that you were going to come to the grassland to jump in the queue. I finally found it. you."

"So that's how it is." Gu Zhi looked up at Yue Qiluo, "No wonder I felt an inexplicable familiarity with you the first time I saw you."

"Really?" Yue Qiluo laughed, "You are much more obedient than Tang Shanhai. When you were in Shanghai, you were an undercover agent and suspicious by nature. I spent more than half a year with you before you believed that I was not sent by the enemy to lie to you. Very nerve-wracking."

After Gu Zhi finished washing her feet, he lifted them up dripping with water, and wiped them clean with a towel.Yue Qiluo sat on the edge of the bed shaking her little feet, looking at Gu Zhi, she thought maybe it was because Gu Zhi's soul was more complete than before, maybe there were some past life memories in her womb, so it was easier to believe her.

It's just that he still lacks a soul, and he won't go back in this life.Thinking of this level, Yue Qiluo felt empty in her heart. She missed Zhang Xianzong, Tang Shanhai and Shen Jianli, and even Liu Zigu.She couldn't wait for him to remember everything, and she wanted to talk to him about the ups and downs of these years.She was lonely and scared, and she had tasted the sweetness, and she could no longer be a loner and evil spirit.

Gu Zhi went out and poured out the water, came back and sat on the edge of the bed, looked at her and said, "My father once told me that before I was three years old, I was a weird child, often talking about my previous life, and that I was not from the Gu family. After that, I suddenly forgot everything, and I no longer mentioned the past life I mentioned before, and became a normal person." Gu Zhi paused, "Now that I think about it, there are only some scattered fragments. I often see some pieces of paper in my dreams. People, heavy snow, lanterns, or a plum blossom. Sometimes, I dream that I am a sweet-scented osmanthus tree planted in a garden in the mountains. In autumn, someone will come and shake my petals and use them to make sweet-scented osmanthus sugar."

Yue Qiluo thumped in her heart, Shen Jianli asked her to plant an osmanthus tree on the grave, and he had really guarded the other courtyard for so many years.But she has never seen it bloom, and she has been looking for him for so many years in vain.He left Chongqing only after the other courtyard was destroyed, and came to find her.

She asked him tentatively: "Then you...can you remember anything else?"

Gu Zhi shook his head: "I can't remember it anymore. Every time I have a dream, these memories fade away. I am afraid that after a few more times, I will forget even these fragments."

Yue Qiluo's heart felt hot, she patted his shoulder very maturely, and said: "I will help you." Before finishing speaking, he yawned.Gu Zhi smiled and said, "Go to sleep." Then he pulled the quilt to cover her.

Yue Qiluo huddled under the blanket, suddenly remembered something, and pulled Gu Zhi's sleeve to prevent him from leaving: "Gu Zhi, I heard that you were convicted of hooliganism before. Tell me the truth, whether you have a relationship with a man or a woman has anything to do with it." The problem, or is it because you like men?"

Gu Zhi was stunned, and blurted out: "I have never played a hooligan on a girl..." Then he remembered that Yue Qiluo should not know the truth, lest she seek revenge from Niu Darong, so he fell silent without saying a word.

Seeing that he stopped talking, Yue Qiluo thought that he had acquiesced, her heart was empty, and a chill poured down from her head.Lying on the bed, she thought that Gu Zhi liked men all her life, she felt so sad and let go of him.The ceiling was muddy, and the weak light illuminated it. After staring at it for a long time, the circles of my eyes felt sour.She closed her eyes.

The author has something to say: In fact, at the beginning, Gu Zhi's setting was really homosexual.

First, I want to give Lao Yue and Gu Zhi a fair and honest reason to get close to each other. They have treated each other with courtesy for so many years, and they may not have hugged each other properly once.After all these years, I finally have a reason to be close to you without you feeling awkward.Secondly, the gay son of a capitalist on the prairie likes to read Tagore. This setting is too poignant.

But halfway through writing, I felt cruel...so I gave up, I can't write like this, it's too cruel to Lao Yue.

So Xiao Gu is now a fake gay and straight man, but he is misunderstood by Lao Yue.Therefore, there will still be physical contact that should be there later.

Best of both worlds!
