Sealing Knife

On the 17th day of the twelfth lunar month, it was Ye Fusheng's 30-year-old birthday. When today passes, he will be a man in his early years.

He spent two months as a cat in Dongming Valley. If he still remembers to guide Xie Li every day, he might be able to post a winter fat. Early in the morning, the pheasant hanged his throat three times. Ye Fusheng also buried himself in the bed, and at that point, Yu Wen lazily refused to move.

There was a soft sound on the window sill, and a small head-frosted melon was found. Xie Lizi and Ye Fusheng seldom walked the main entrance, and the light power became better. The skills are also becoming more familiar. When the head Xue Xueyi came to visit, he was almost not overwhelmed. He picked up Chi Xuelian and chased Ye Fusheng half of the mountain. However, this person slipped without keeping his hands. .

At this moment, the little boy shuffled into the room, sweating on his forehead, which showed that the morning exercise had just ended. He walked to the bed, his two paws pressed against the corner of the bed, and shouted angrily Dantian: "Uncle Ye, get up!"

Ye Fusheng buried his head in the quilt as well, only reaching out to drive him away like a mosquito: "Go away! Play with Aru!"

Xie Lidao: "Aru and Master Chu Men are waiting for us in the Guiling River."

Since seeing Jiang Muxue that time, Chu Xiwei has been relieved. A month ago, he took Ye Fusheng and Aru to the hilltop hut, where the spirit of the Jingwang couple was provided.

The life and death of Qianchen have been decided, and now the enmity is over. Chu Xiwei knelt down in front of the spirit and lit a candle offering wine, incinerated three or two paper money, and Ye Fusheng personally took Sanshouxiang.

When the gray fly smoke extinguished, Chu Xiwei asked Aru to kneel and worship himself as a teacher.

The little girl was not very young, but she was smart and sensible, and she was a little careless. Chu Ziyu did not shy away from her when she sent her away, so she just stunned and immediately picked up the teacup and kowtowed seriously. Worship Master.

"You were originally Tang's surname. Aru is your mother's breast name. She wished you all the best in your life, and I also wished her to make a name for you on top of it, called 'Yi'an.'"

Ah Ru repeated these two words three times and asked, "Does Master make me feel comfortable?"

Chu Xiwei gave her a deep look, and finally her eyes fell on Ye Fusheng's smiling face, and the corner of her mouth lightly ticked, saying: "Let's just say it."

The fifth generation successor of Jinghong Dao, Tang Yi'an, has been in the fame since. When Jiang Muxue received the letter, he was undecided, but just sent someone to send a wooden knife made according to Jinghong's mold, and then carried it on the little girl's back.

There are not children in Dongming Valley, but because of the limited talents, the second is the difference in friendship. Only Xie Li and Aru practice daily exercises with Ye Fusheng and Chu Xiwei, the former standing under the waterfall to practice Qi The latter tied iron and stone and hunted trees on the shore to catch birds.

After hearing this, Ye Fusheng struggled out of the bed with a mess of hair, and asked, "Gui Linghe? Are you going out of the valley?"

He played with Chu Xiwei last night for most of the night. He just felt that Tutuzi's enthusiasm was very difficult to parry. In the end, Ye Fusheng pulled the quilt and wrapped it into spring rolls before he could sleep. Is it because of this sudden trip ?

Ye Fusheng was puzzled. He put on his coat and poured water while getting out of bed. He was surprised: "I haven't heard of any wine shop opening nearby?"

Xie Li stayed with him for these months, and he had already learned the obedient ability of "taking essence and removing meal", and replied: "Master Chu Men said, I want to take you back to my hometown to see that Senior Duanqing has passed. Now. "

"..." Ye Fusheng sprayed water with a sip, and the rest of the drowsiness suddenly disappeared.

An hour later, when two carriages drove out of Dongming Valley, Ye Fusheng had not fully recovered.

Duan Qing and two young children were sitting in the carriage behind him. There were only him and Chu Xiwei in the carriage, and he didn't have to worry about talking. Seeing that Chu Xiwei took refreshments from the dark grid and placed a small wooden table on the chessboard, Ye Fusheng stretched out his hand and pressed it on Chu Xiwei's chest across the clothes.

Chu Xiwei didn't pour out the tea, slammed the restless hand, and said angrily, "What do you do?"

"Your heart beats so fast ..." Ye Fusheng raised an eyebrow. "A Yao, what guilty thing did you do?"

A month ago, Duan Qing took them to Forgetting Peak, worshipped Gu Fangfang at the Bull Frost Court, and then Ye Fusheng had the idea of ​​going back to Fei Yunfeng to see. He talked to Chu Xiwei a few times. He was either busy or was fooled by reasons such as “not suitable for the season”. Ye Fusheng pulled all the leaves of the laurel tree and did not want to understand what he was planning. Down, so dragged to the present.

Chu Xi picked up a piece of osmanthus cake slightly and stuffed it into his mouth rudely: "You are guilty!"

Ye Fusheng nibbled the cake in half, and blinked at him, sincerely said: "Every time you have something hidden in your heart, your ears are as red as blood, but you want to take a bite."

Chu Xiwei: "..."

He picked up a cup of hot tea and drank it slowly, as if that cup of tea was something rare in the world, and he didn't give alms to it.

"First dragged me for two months, and now I start without squeaking. My sister and I are still following you. When will you collude?" Ye Fusheng leaned his hands on the table and leaned forward, looking at Chu Xi. Slightly, it seems to be forced to confess.

The breath between the two was so close that they could count the number of each other's eyelashes. Chu Xiwei's pale face turned red with the naked eye, making Ye Fusheng secretly claim to be strange.

The bunny was thin-skinned since he was a little boy, and now he grows up like this. He has done more intimate things, but one breath can make him blush.

Ye Fusheng couldn't help but leaned his head and gently breathed into his ear piercing, saying: "Speak, what did you hide from me?"

Chu Xiwei's neck was blown by him, half a cup of tea was splashed on his hand, and the duck's mouth stubbornly said: "No!"

Oh, good news.

Ye Fusheng glanced at him deeply, but he didn't continue to question. He moved back and leaned against the wall of the carriage, eating cakes slowly and wondering what he was thinking.

He didn't speak, but Chu Xiwei couldn't sit still, and asked, "Why didn't you ask?"

"You don't want to say, I'm used to you chanting." Ye Fusheng raised his head, his eyes full of smiles, "However, you said that this is not a drag home to my mother's home.

Chu Xiwei expressionlessly said: "Get off you!"

After scolding, he remembered the words "back to his mother's house" and couldn't help laughing, moved to Ye Fusheng's head and pressed the man's head in exchange for a tea-flavored kiss.

After a kiss, Ye Fusheng lifted the car curtain to look back at the scenery beside the road. The memory looked back to the long river, and his eyes also became distant: "When I was young, I saw that children of the same age had fathers and mothers, so I went to quarrel with Master Mother, it's very annoying. Master coaxed me twice to not listen, and said, 'One day is a teacher for life and father', and also pointed to the mother and sister to let me call 'Niangqin', throwing a face with an eye knife and smiling. It ’s ... When I ’m older, she said that when the bandits were bandited, I was hugged out of the dead, and my father and mother were protecting me from death, so I had to live not only, but to live well ... "

Chu Xi froze for a moment. This was the past he rarely heard. At this time, he put down the tea and listened to Ye Fusheng seriously.

"I have been skinny since I was a child, either to play cheap with Master, or to be obedient in front of the Master, away from their eyes, I can find the sky full of footprints, and there are few birds, beasts, insects, and fish on Feiyun Peak that have not been harmed by me Yes, I feel that I am lawless and I am alive ... "Ye Fusheng paused, and the smile in his eyes slowly dissipated." Later, Master disappeared, Fei Yunfeng was destroyed, and I couldn't find my home again, just Wandering around like a lone ghost. Before Jinshui Town met you again, I lived as a homeless beggar. When I passed a small town, the woman who opened the noodle stall gave a bowl of noodles to eat and go. So many beggars, others disgust at first glance, where is she kind? "

Chu Xiwei didn't speak, and Ye Fusheng said with care: "It turns out that her husband died ten years ago, leaving two sons, eight or nine years old, and younger than three years old ... She has been struggling to bring a child to a helpless woman, and she can work for a few more years when she is big, but she can't afford it when she is small, so she threw the child away for the whole night. Looking back. When the eldest son clamored for the younger brother the next day, she regretted it and ran back to find it. Unfortunately, she saw nothing in the forest. Only a woodcutter who got up early and saw firewood said she saw a woman in red After a swaddle walked down the mountain, no further information was asked. "

Chu Xiwei's eyes widened, like a cat stepped on the tail, he held his breath and listened to Ye Fusheng said: "The woman doesn't know if the woman is kind enough to raise the child, maybe it is given away or sold It is more likely to be discarded in unknown places ... Later, when the eldest son became a family, she remembered the younger son, but unfortunately she ruthlessly had no chance of regret and could only open a noodle stall for the beggars. A child will have enough to eat and drink, in case her child is really desperate, maybe she can eat her a bite. "

Chu Xiwei tweeted twice: "She is you ..."

"I ate the bowl of noodles dry and drunk, then wished her a good time and left. I looked back at her children and grandchildren to help close the stall. I thought it was a family reunion, which was good." Ye Fusheng smiled, "Everyone There is a home, her home is there, my home is Feiyunfeng, so ... A Yao, thank you for taking me home. "

Chu Xiwei moved his mind and leaned in and whispered in his ear: "Master, I don't mean to deceive you, I just have a gift to give you a birthday, but unfortunately I can't keep up with today. We have to wait for us to return to Feiyunfeng I can see that it ’s boring now. "

Ye Fusheng smiled: "Who did you learn this set from?"

Chu Xiwei didn't talk around his shoulders, his mouth lightly tickled, his smile was not obvious, but it was as warm as winter.

The road from Dongming Valley to Feiyunfeng was quite long. They rushed to the road near the moon, and finally arrived at the town outside Feiyunfeng Mountain when Huadeng first came.

This night is the Lantern Festival. There are thousands of lights in the small towns outside the mountains. Not only two children passed by, but also Ye Yesheng was striking. Whether it was a lantern floating along the water, or a red building sign, even those people and Street vendors are also happy. However, Chu Xiwei didn't stop here. Ye Fusheng got out of the car and bought some snow candy cakes, wine stuffed Lantern Festival, etc., one was sent to the front car, and the other was eaten with Chu Xiwei. It should be a solar term.

Chu Xiwei looked at the newly-purchased Lantern Lantern he bought in his hands. The candle was not lit. The white paper outside painted half-tree new peach with colorful ink and a small line of writing.

"Wish to win one's heart, Baishou not separate ..." Chu Xiwei's gaze moved to Ye Fusheng, his eyes contained a light leaking from the window, fine and bright.

Ye Fusheng put down the lantern, took the ink from the dark grid, and smiled: "In fact, only this sentence, I am still not satisfied."

Having said that, he drew a pen and dipped it in ink to write two lines on the other side of the lantern, but did not give Chu Xi a slight look. His eyes were full of cramps and said, "You will know when you get home later."

"..." Chu Xi didn't see it. He knew that the old fox was waiting for revenge, so he ignored him and turned to look at the scenery.

As soon as three more days passed, they finally reached the foot of Feiyunfeng Mountain.

Ye Fusheng has not returned to Feiyunfeng in a long time. The so-called sentimental feelings near hometown refer to people like him. On the way he came, he thought about the appearance of Feiyunfeng thousands of times now, thinking about the past 13 years, whether it is still scorched everywhere, or there are new shoots resurrected, but no matter what kind, it is not the same as yesterday. Fei Yunfeng in his memory.

The peaks of Feiyun Peak rise into the clouds, among them not only the rugged rocks, but also the jungles and the clear waters around the mountains. Even in the winter of depression, there are still pine, cypress and green bamboos that are still proud, and the wind blows and the green waves are like anger. The most vibrant pure land of Bliss.

It was a pity that the fire that thirteen years ago almost burned this place. The green forest and green forest became scorched soil and dead wood. Even the fish in the mountain stream were burnt to death by the heat wave, withering away the beautiful scenery of the mountain, and the empty wall was broken.

At the moment when he got off the bus, Ye Fusheng's eyes were black, and until Xie Li and A Ru's exclamations came from his ears, Chu Xiwei released his hands covering his eyes.

The eyes are the mountains and the waves, the thousands of plants and trees are staggered in the night, and the snow is covered on the tip. As the birds leave the branches, the frost and flowers are falling, and the wild cat protrudes his head from behind the tree. "Meow" with a loud step, quietly walked away in quick steps, and shaken off the cold dew blades of grass attached to the fur.

A cool but gentle wind blew, Ye Fusheng stared at a leaf that was tossing off the branch and fluttering with the wind, and finally fell in the gurgling stream under the turquoise stone, whirling playfully and drifting further along the water The place.

Insects sing all around, with long moons and sparse stars on their heads. They walked all the way along the mountain road, and occasionally they were seen passing by, as if they were a dozen years of floating light.

As he approached the mountainside, Chu Xiwei extinguished his torch. He led Ye Fusheng and walked to the forefront, leading them to continue to walk until the deep dark night was punctured by a lit light.

There was no plaque or sign outside the former residence, and there was nothing like a lion like a town house. There was only a plum blossom forest. There was a peach tree in the courtyard. No matter the cold winter or the spring, there were beautiful colors. Now Ye Fusheng looks down the light. But the smell of the wind and the dark incense, the plum blossoms in the front are still beautiful, and the thick branches are hung with windproof lanterns, which gives a streamer to the small mountain cage, reflecting the posture of flowers and paving when they are projected on the ground. A beautiful road ahead with a soft halo.

At this moment, Ye Fusheng remembered the Lantern Festival many years ago. He followed the master and his mother to go down the mountain and bought lanterns, fireworks, etc., so he could pretend to be inside and outside the wooden house, but he was stupid, the master was careless, and wanted the lantern. My eyes were always just in my dreams, and I couldn't realize it until later.

until now.

Chu Xiwei's voice rang in his ears: "I came back from Xichuan before, and I came to Feiyunfeng when I borrowed a job, and I saw that the mountains were covered with vegetation, and Shixia Mountain Spring was out, but I just recovered and I was not alive enough. , Let his subordinates look for experienced craftsmen, move trees to reforest, release birds, beasts, insects and fish, and then wrote to the director to ask him, and rebuilt the wooden house Merlin according to the pattern. With these lanterns, alcoholic fireworks are also prepared. "

He looked at Ye Fusheng while speaking, his face calm and relaxed, but his eyes were as nervous as the child who asked for praise: "This gift, first he congratulated Dao Chang with you, but he was worried and returned to his former home; I wish you a birthday Le, Chang'an since then ... you like it? "

Ye Fusheng stared at Duan Qing with a slight smile to himself, and then pushed the door in. Xie Li and Aru circled around a plum tree with peony lanterns, and two innocent little ghost heads, unconsciously In front of me, my eyes were blurred, only the halo was still gentle.

"I like it, of course ..." Ye Fusheng chewed at the corner of his mouth, holding Chu Xiwei's face in one hand, and the choked words disappeared between his lips and teeth.

They kissed unforgettablely under the fire tree silver flower, and then Ye Fusheng took Chu Xiwei's hand to light the candle, hung the horse lantern in front of the courtyard door, and entered the house together.

The wind blew, and the hot flames of candles urged the wheel of the lantern to turn. The peach blossoms of the half tree seemed to come alive. They stretched their branches and leaves on the white paper of the fire. They stretched from the other side of the concentric long river of Baishou to other places in the floating world, but they said-

The mountains and rivers meet together in the end, and they meet again in the afterlife.
