whale wave

The afternoon in Chaxi was extremely quiet, with only the sound of cicadas chirping. Zhao Yousheng sat on the mat with his arms resting on a few tablespoons, holding a book in his hand. His fingertips touched the words printed on the pages of the book, and he read intently.If other people read it and know every word, but they don't know what it means, this is the book of the boat master.

Most of the boat masters are not well-educated. The Haidao Needle Classics written by them are crude and have a lot of jargon, which Zhao Yousheng can understand, and he thinks it is very interesting.This is Zhao Yousheng's usual hobby, and it was the same in his previous life.

"Sail the boat to dry the sea and leave the stone fence, hold the water for fifteen times, look at the Beichen star with four fingers, and the lantern star with eleven and a half fingers..."

After reading this, Zhao Yousheng seems to be in the vast ocean, standing on the sea boat, holding the star board in his hand, looking up at the starry sky, his arm holding the board is straight, and the other hand pulls the board rope to his eyes, watching the up and down of the star board , the bottom is perpendicular to the sea level, the top measures the height of the star from the horizontal, and uses this to navigate.

The so-called "four fingers" and "eleven and a half fingers" in Kaidao Acupuncture all refer to the specifications of using the star board. The total price of the star board is 12 yuan, the smallest is one finger board, and the largest is twelve finger board.

The hot sun was so hot, Zhao Yousheng's mind was calm and naturally cool, and the gentle breeze blowing towards the grass pavilion might have turned into a cool sea breeze that caressed his face.

The sea area is so vast, sailing can go thousands of miles, and there are countless Fanguoyi islands along the way where you can anchor. Zhao Yousheng, who was quite helpless in his previous life, fell in a pool of blood with no place to stand in the troubled times.

The cicadas always sing in bursts, especially croaking. Suddenly, the cicadas are silent for a long time. It means that someone is passing by, and the cicadas are timid.Zhao Yousheng raised his head, put one hand on his knees, put the book on the mat with the other, and looked ahead. On the path leading to the grass pavilion, three people came, the leader was Yu Entai, and there were two people behind. Meet one of them.

More than knowing!

Zhao Yousheng stood up abruptly, strode down from the grass pavilion, and greeted him.

"Ah Leftover!"

Chen Yu ran forward quickly, passed Yu Entai, and left Ge Guijin who accompanied him to Chaxi far away. He was so excited that he came to Zhao Yousheng in one breath before stopping.

He was wearing a light and plain silk robe, and a crystal wall in the shape of a crabapple flower was fastened around his waistline with a fine silk ribbon. There was also a golden sachet hanging around his waist. The sachet was small and exquisite, exuding a refreshing fragrance. With a paper fan with a jade handle, the complexion of the arms is as fair and delicate as the white jade handle. Even in Xihua Academy, where there are many young talents, it is always surprising that such an elegant person appears.

In Zhao Yousheng's eyes, he has grown taller, his facial features have also grown, and he is tall and beautiful.Chen Yu, a young man, is enthusiastic and intimate. After nearly a year of separation, he has not felt the slightest strangeness.

"Xiao Yu, why are you here?" Unexpectedly, even Zhao Youcheng was surprised.

"I went to Douwei Dragon Kiln with Pan Ganban and his nephew, and came back to Nanxi Road to see you."

He was so happy that he forgot to introduce Ge Guijin who was standing behind him. He stepped on a stone step and stood with Zhao Youcheng. The stone step was neither wide nor long, and only two people could stand on it. There was a rustling sound from the clothes.Zhao Youcheng was afraid that he would not step on it and fall, so he reached out and grabbed his arm, the movement was natural and intimate.

The intimacy of the two made Yu Entai's eyes widen. Based on what he knew about Zhao Yousheng, Brother Zhao was not warm and cold towards anyone in the academy. As his lovely roommate, sometimes he suspected that he had no feelings for him.

When Chen Yu's arm was grabbed by Zhao Youcheng, he felt that his hand was not weak. Ah Surplus's palm was broad and powerful, and he was taller than last year, and his body had changed a lot. Even so, his eyebrows and eyes were still so familiar. The sense of intimacy has not changed a bit.When he came to Xihua Academy and stood next to Zhao Yousheng, Chen Yu couldn't help but rejoice that he finally saw him.

"Come here, sit down and enjoy the shade." Zhao Yousheng entered the pavilion and offered to sit.

In the scorching sun outside the pavilion, Chen Yu came all the way, the hair on his forehead was permeated with sweat, and his cheeks and lips were flushed due to the heat.

Chen Yu saw that the grass pavilion was simple, with only one mat, so he sat on it and put his two long feet on the stone steps. This is a very casual way of sitting.Zhao Yousheng beside him is within reach, the strange tea creek, the strange Xihua Academy, and even the grass pavilion by the creek here, all seem so comfortable because of the presence of A Leftover.

Zhao Yousheng had already noticed Ge Guijin who came with Chen Yu, and invited him into the pavilion to rest, while he and Yu Entai boiled water and made tea.

Yu Entai's mind was not on the stove at all, a cattail fan did not blow the wind, and he could only see Chen Yu's back from his position, but even that back looked charming.However, the beauty's mind was not on the man in the pavilion at all, his eyes followed Brother Zhao, who went to the stream to wash the tea bowls with his own hands, wearing a pure white and black blouse, standing out among the reeds like a white crane.

"So Brother Zhao's nickname is A Leftover." Brother Yu felt very amused by his discovery, and pressed his chin with the handle of his cattail fan.

When Chen Yu heard this, he turned his head and asked with a smile, "Brother Yu and Ah Leftover live in the same room?"

When he came to Xihua Academy, Chen Yu was not familiar with the place, but he went straight to the house to look for Zhao Youcheng. His behavior was not at all like him.At noon, the students were taking shelter from the cool, and there were only brother Yu and two other students in the dormitory. Brother Yu saw Chen Yu asking if the house servant Zhao Yousheng was there, and he hurried forward and said that he was Yousheng's roommate and old friend here. , lead the way attentively.

The two talked on the way to Caoting, and Chen Yu heard more or less about You Sheng's situation in the academy from Yu Entai.

Yu Entai replied: Yes, we live in the same room, our friendship is very good, and we often go drinking together.Yu Entai's face was about to burst into laughter, the tea on the stove was boiling, and he didn't care at all.

Four bowls of tea were poured, and Ge Guijin took a bowl from Yu Entai's hand, as if surprised.He didn't know the identity of Zhao Yousheng's eldest son, otherwise, seeing his respectful appearance, he might not even dare to sit down.

The tea is only crude tea, and there are no servants to cook tea and wash the tea bowls. The simplicity and hands-on style of Xihua Academy can be seen.Chen Yu and Zhao Yousheng sat in the corner of the pavilion, back to back, and they drank tea slowly, not talking much, but in Yu Entai's eyes, there was a feeling that they couldn't talk between them.

The sound of cicadas chirping, the cool breeze in the afternoon, as if being hypnotized, Yu Entai cooked another pot of tea, Ge Guijin helped pour the tea, the two chatted, and when Yu Entai heard that Chen Yu was the son of Chen Duanli, the fan in his hand suddenly fell from his hand Falling, hurriedly turned around to look at the two behind him.

Those two people sat together, one smiled slightly and whispered something; the other sipped tea and listened attentively, his eyebrows and eyes were like pictures, there was an indescribable harmony between the two.

At first, Yu Entai guessed that Chen Yu was a child of the noble family. You must know that Ge Guijin was not the only one who escorted him, but also four other servants, and his clothes were quite luxurious.

"In this way, your young master's family is the son of Chen Chengjie, but our brother Zhao is the eldest son." Brother Yu still has something to say, that is: it is really rare in the world to have such a good friendship.

Ge Guijin was really unfamiliar with Zhao Yousheng, and he was cautious, so he just nodded.

Chen Yu was telling Zhao Yousheng what he had seen and heard about the Douwei Dragon Kiln. The Dragon Kiln was built according to the mountain, which was very spectacular. According to Pan Ganban, among the porcelains fired in the Dragon Kiln, a white porcelain powder box was sold overseas. The best-selling one is as white as snow, and the little one is only the size of a palm.

Chen Yu raised his hand, which was pampered and never worked. His eyebrows and eyes were soft and poetic, like the imaginable white porcelain powder box.

The tea moistened Zhao Yousheng's throat, his lips were moist and glistening, his eyes narrowed slightly because of the dazzling sunlight, and the light and shadow sculpted his brows, eyes, lips and nose, Chen Yu's words stopped, he glanced at him, and his eyes suddenly moved away .

Zhao Yousheng put down the tea bowl and changed his posture. At this moment, Chen Yu looked down at a beetle crawling at his feet. He heard him ask, "When do I have to go back to Quancheng?"

"There's no rush to go back, we have to wait for Pan Ganban to come back from Longyao, and then go back together."

Zhao Yousheng thought that Xiaoyu would have to live in Ning County for a few days. He originally thought that the two would be separated in Chaxi and would not meet each other, but he did not expect that Chen Yu would come to him in person.

Whether it is Chaxi or Nanxi, there are traces of their companionship in the previous life. Once the love that sprouted in the youth, once it breeds, it is difficult to get rid of it, and it will stay with you for a lifetime.

"Ah Leftover, can I stay here for one night?"

Chen Yu didn't want to just meet You Sheng in such a hurry, so he went back to Nanxi. It was not easy to come to Ning County, and it was not easy to meet You Sheng.

"Okay, let Brother Yu go to sleep in Brother Meng's room, and you sleep in the bed next to me." Zhao Yousheng said flatly.

Yu Entai was listening attentively to what they had to say. He waved his cattail fan to the two of them and protested: "Brother Meng snores all the time, making people sleepless all night. In my opinion, the bed is not too small, so the two of you can just make do with it." One night."

In the past, it was not that there were no friends of other scholars who came to visit and stay overnight. They were often squeezed together, good friends and quilts, everyone was male, no difference.

In the afternoon, Ge Guijin and his servants went back to Douwei Longyao first. Zhao Yousheng said that he would send Chen Yu to Nanxi in person, and Ge Guijin's escort mission was completed.Chaxi is adjacent to Nanxi, and Zhao Yousheng is a nobleman, a serious scholar, but Ge Guijin doesn't have to worry about Chen Yu's unsafe journey.

After drinking two bowls of tea, Ge Guijin was sent away, Zhao Yousheng took Chen Yu back to the Zhai, the scholars had already heard that there was a beautiful young man visiting friends, and they all came out to watch.Xihua Academy is all boys, not to mention village women, it is rare to see an old woman, so some students feel a little bit of admiration for young and beautiful people of the same sex.

Chen Yu has always been polite to others, as long as people come to him to ask questions, he will answer them, and he will not realize that there are many people around him.Zhao Yousheng escorted Chen Yu into his fasting room, he bolted the door unceremoniously, and blocked the idlers from the door.

"I'm rude, please don't take offense." Yu Entai apologized, even he felt that these nerds lost their composure today, although he himself was very attentive to them because he saw that they were good-looking.

Zhao Yousheng tidied up on the bed. There were a lot of books piled up beside his bed, although his bed was several times tidier than Yu Entai's.Chen Yu picked up a book at random, and found that it was a book about overseas geography. He opened the book, flipped through two pages, and saw that some words on it were outlined with a red pen. Before he could read it carefully, the book was confiscated by Zhao Yousheng .

"You rest here first, I'll call someone to bring some food and wine."

"Ah Leftover, you don't need to make special preparations."

Chen Yu grabbed Zhao Youcheng's sleeve, he didn't want him to leave, but he didn't realize his infatuation, he didn't want to let go even for a moment.

"I don't know how unpalatable the food here is, I don't know. It's just a toothbrush festival today, so I'll call someone to prepare it."

Yu Entai went out, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared at the courtyard gate.

Only Chen Yu and Zhao Youcheng were left in the fasting room. Youcheng made the bed, fetched water with the washbasin, and washed Chen Yu's face. Chen Yu followed, and the two went to the well behind the fasting house one by one.

Zhao Yousheng actually had a servant in the academy, Qian Liu. When Qian Liu saw his master going to the well with the washbasin, he hurriedly followed and took the washbasin. Naturally, he did the physical work of fetching water.

Qian Liu lifted water from the well, and the water splashed into the copper basin, splashing on the ground. He picked up the copper basin roughly and placed it on the stone slab, and a lot of water in the basin spilled out.In the hot summer, he was sweating, and the well water was cold, which was very refreshing. Chen Yu slapped his face with water, washed his face, and with his hands, he took the towel handed by Zhao Yousheng and wiped his hands and face.Chen Yu handed the scarf to Qian Liu, he raised his face, his collar was loose and his hair was a little messy, he started to arrange the collar and hair.

Ever since Chen Yu appeared, Zhao Yousheng could smell the fragrance on his body. It was faint but refreshing. Wreathed.

Zhao Yousheng took Chen Yu's hand and took him away from the well, and also took him away from the eyes of others around the well.

Through the thin cloth, the hand grasping the wrist was rough and strong. Chen Yu followed along in a daze. food, and he has only one rough servant by his side.

If you tell Zhuang Die and Duanhe that Ah Liu will do it himself in the academy, I'm afraid none of them will believe it.

If he hadn't injured the Qin brothers for him, Ah Left would never have had to live such a life.

Yu Entai went to buy food and drink, and he didn't come back until dark. A villager came with him. The villager only carried a three-layer food box and a jug of wine.When the food box was opened, there were two kinds of wild vegetables, a bowl of stewed chicken, and the pot of wine was brewed by the farm.

Zhao Yousheng poured wine and asked Chen Yu: "Can you drink?" Chen Yu nodded, he could drink, he would get drunk if he drank too much, and occasionally socialized with Chen's father, he had drunk alcohol.

On the grass pavilion, the light of the lantern was weak, and Yu Entai lit a candle in the leeward position, and the small light group illuminated the faces of the three of them.The summer night is full of stars, and the grass pavilion with no barriers around is the coolest. The three of them drink and talk.

Yu Entai felt that he was very lucky. As an ordinary citizen, he was lucky to meet the eldest son of Zhao Yousheng, and also the son of Chen Duanli. He was very happy, drank a lot of wine and talked a lot.

Brother Yu, who had successfully drunk himself, fell asleep at his desk. Zhao Yousheng and Chen Yu left the grass pavilion and walked to a platform where the grass pavilion extended to the stream. The moonlight shone on the tea stream like water.Chen Yu drank a bowl of wine and was a little drunk. He sat down and leaned against the bamboo railing on one side. Zhao Youcheng stood beside him with a tall and straight figure, and his sleeves fluttered in the wind.

"Yuan Ya and I went to Fanfang to visit strange people living in Quanzhou, and sometimes we heard strange stories from them. A Leftover, do you know Hai Yupo?"

Chen Yu gathered up the skirts that were blown by the wind, the moonlight shone on his upturned face, and his cheeks were shining brightly.

"Oh, never heard of it."

Zhao Youcheng put his hands behind his back, his upright figure looked like seven feet high in the eyes of Chen Yu who was sitting on the ground.Being with him is always reassuring, satisfying and satisfying.Chen Yu imitated Yuan Ya's storytelling skills, and described in detail the dragon of Longyu Island, Haiyan, Overseas King, and Hailong's brow-Haiyupo.

"Ah Leftover, in the world, is there really a treasure that can bring the dead back to life?" Chen Yu stared at You Sheng with wide eyes. Ah Leftover seemed to understand everything since he was a child, and he could always explain his doubts.

"How can a dead person be resurrected? It's just a sailor's legend."

Zhao Yousheng's ending sound disappeared into the wind, and his mood was quite delicate.

"Drink, come, where is the person?"

The drunken Yu Entai was looking for someone in the grass pavilion, and was yelling because he couldn't find his drinking buddy.

Thinking that he was too drunk and afraid of falling into the stream, Zhao Yousheng and Chen Yu went back to find him together.

The three of them returned to the house together, with Yu Entai staggering in front, Zhao Yousheng and Chen Yu behind, the moonlight was thick, and the surroundings were silent.

As soon as the door of the room opened and closed, in the blink of an eye, Yu Entai had fallen asleep on the bed, Zhao Yousheng was undressing beside his bed, Chen Yu turned on the oil lamp, and the room was really dark.They are all descendants of wealthy families, if they hadn't come here, how would Chen Yu know that a small oil lamp has such limited lighting.

Sitting on the bed, Chen Yu took off his shoes, untied his hair that was blown by the wind, and took off a shirt that he was wearing outside, leaving only a set of close-fitting clothes. clothes to wear.Chen Yu was looking forward to it, they hadn't slept side by side for many years, they lay down and talked at night together.

Zhao Yousheng lay down on the bed, Chen Yu immediately leaned forward and leaned closer, he hugged the porcelain pillow like a child, lay down on the bed and said cheerfully: "Ah Leftover, do you still remember when I spent the night at your house?"

"Remember." Zhao Youcheng lay flat, facing the top of the bed.

"In summer night, Ah Xiang will prepare watermelon and ice drinks for us, and you will tell me stories."

"Yeah." Zhao Yousheng remembered that there were several nights like this, with pleasant memories.

"Ah Leftover, tell me one."

Chen Yu turned his head to look at You Sheng, and saw You Sheng's bun hanging down, he reached out and touched his hair, A leftover's hair was still hard and prickly.

"Don't say it." Zhao Yousheng raised his hand and put down the gauze curtain as if he didn't know Chen Yu's actions.

"Then let me tell you a story. I heard from Yuan Ya that there was an old fan king overseas. The old fan king had a seven-foot-tall agarwood tree..."

"Zheng Yuanya... do you often play together?"

"Well, he is very interesting, and he knows a lot of strange things! He knows almost every old sailor in Quanzhou Port. He wears a golden knife at his waist. He is majestic and can defeat two villains by himself. Once we went to the street ..."

"Go to sleep."

Chen Yu's words were suddenly interrupted, and he was silent for a while. He didn't realize that he had repeatedly mentioned Zheng Yuanya, and the long life was long and the long life was short.

Zhao Youcheng pulled up the thin silk quilt, covered Chen Yu's waist, and shared some quilts with himself. The temperature in the mountains and forests often dropped at night, and he still had to cover a thin quilt around his waist at night in summer to prevent him from catching cold.

Chen Yu was not afraid of the cold or the heat. He pulled back the quilt a little, and still hugged the porcelain pillow and talked enthusiastically: "Ah Leftover, I want to go out to sea by boat when I grow up. Yuan Ya said that there is a place on the sea called Kunlun Ocean, where the There is Shark City, which is the hometown of Sharkmen."

Zhao Yousheng at this time, don't look at him with his eyes closed and his expression calm, but in fact he really wants to beat Zheng Yuanya violently, whether it's Hai Yupo or Yuyi, why did he tell Chen Yu these things?Zhao Yousheng would rather that Chen Yu would never know about these things, because he knew that in his previous life, Chen Yu risked his life and wanted to save a dead person regardless of the cost.

Zhao Youcheng closed his eyes, he didn't intend to respond to these words, even though he knew exactly what kind of place Shark Township was, he used to be a resident of Shark Township.

There was no response, Chen Yu turned sideways and stretched out his head to visit Zhao Youcheng, seeing his eyelids drooping, as if he was asleep, he still wanted to talk to him, and didn't want to fall asleep so soon.Chen Yu stretched out his hand, and gently touched Zhao Yousheng's neck with his fingers, and he immediately opened his eyes.

"It's very cold." Chen Yu smiled brightly.

Chen Yu's body temperature is colder than others in summer, although it will freeze in winter.

Zhao Youcheng pinched Chen Yu's restless paw, seeming a little annoyed, Chen Yu thought he was going to pinch himself hard, and had already experienced Zhao Youcheng's hand strength, but he didn't want him to just let it go, and said with connivance and helplessness: "Late at night Come on, stop messing around and go to sleep."

Chen Yu couldn't sleep, maybe because he drank some wine, or because he was too excited.They have been separated for so long, and there is only one gathering, and they can still lie down and chat together at night, he is not willing to just fall asleep like this.

Chen Yu was quiet for a while, just for a short while.

"Ah Leftover, I went back to my hometown to sweep the tomb in Qingming. I lived in the Nanxi Bookstore. One morning it was foggy and I fell asleep under the tree. I dreamed that you were also in the bookstore." Chen Yu had so much to say to Zhao Yousheng Said, but it is not clear whether he is interested, said like a soliloquy.

"It's as if we have lived together in the study for a long time. The ginkgo tree turns yellow and then green, green and then yellow. In autumn, we sit under the tree together and watch the fallen leaves. The colors are yellow and orange everywhere, so beautiful..." He The voice gradually lost its vitality. After all, it was late at night, and he was really tired after driving for a long time.

Zhao Youcheng sat up slowly when he heard the soft snoring sound from his side. He looked down at Chen Yu's sleeping face for a long time, then raised the back of his hand to touch Chen Yu's forehead, where there was thin sweat.Zhao Yousheng took a cattail fan from the side of the bed and gently fanned Chen Yu.

It won't be cool until late at night, and the room is still a bit hot at this time.

How could he dream of the time when the two of them lived in Nanxi Bookstore? It was a matter of the previous life. When Chen Yu mentioned it, Zhao Yousheng was undoubtedly surprised.

In the previous life, the ground where there was light rain was half dry and half wet in the wind. Under the cover of the huge branches and leaves of the ginkgo tree, there was a piece of dry ground, just for the people under the tree to rest.Zhao Youcheng held a volume of Haidao Needle Sutra in his hand, and leaned against the tree trunk to read leisurely. Chen Yu sat beside him, the book in his hand slipped, and fell asleep in the steam, his body gradually tilted towards Zhao Youcheng, and finally fell into his arms .Zhao Yousheng put his arm around Chen Yu's shoulder, and still held the book in the other hand. He felt the warmth from his skin on his chest, and smelled the faint fragrance of his body in his nose...

The author has something to say: Director: Tell me, did you flirt with us Xiaoyu in your previous life?

Zhao Yousheng was lost in thought...

----------

Zheng Yuanya: If you are jealous, just say it, why do you keep interrupting Xiaoyu, the story I told him is wonderful.
