Junior Journey (II)
...
"What the hell are you looking at?" Luan Bird wondered, it was too boring.
A man and a bird sit under a tree and watch the rain, which is extremely boring.
"Rain. The boy replied as a matter of course.
“......”
I knew that Luanniao wouldn't ask, so I was speechless.
This guy in front of him doesn't look like he's sick, could it be that the rain has entered his brain?
"You know, in my hometown, rain has a very special name. The young man looked at the rainy season in front of him and said softly.
"Name?" Although Luan Niao is a mythical beast, he has never seen the world after all, and he knows very little about the young man's hometown.
The boy reached out his left hand, watched the raindrops falling from the air slam into the palm of his hand, and then jumped away, one after another, drop after drop, again and again, and couldn't help but crack his mouth and laugh.
"Jumping beads. ”
Luan Niao was a little unconvinced at first, but after carefully observing the raindrops jumping in the palm of the boy's palm, he felt that the name was quite nice, at least more poetic than the word rain.
Having had enough, the boy withdrew his left hand, adjusted his position slightly, rested his hands behind his head, and leaned comfortably against the trunk of the tree.
Seeing that the boy closed his eyes, Luan Niao couldn't help but yawn, tossing for a day, and it was a little annoyed by sleepiness.
Just when Luan Niao was about to fall into a dream, the young man suddenly asked:
"Xiaoluan, when is it? ”
Luan Niao was a little sleepy, so he could only squint his eyes and replied in a daze:
“...... It's already in the summer season. ”
After waiting for a while, Luan Niao found that the boy did not answer himself, and his narrow eyes secretly opened a gap, only to find that this guy had even breathed and had obviously fallen asleep.
The man slept first.
No, I'm going to fall asleep too, I'm so sleepy.
Unable to accuse the young man of being impolite, Luan Niao yawned again, and was invited by Zhou Gong to attend tonight's dinner.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and people who have left their hometown will always miss their hometown at this time.
The evening breeze gently blew the young man's face, a little cold, and the young man's brows couldn't help but pick, and then returned to calm.
On the other side of the valley is a sparsely planted hillside where even mulberry trees cannot grow. Over time, the people of the village rarely set foot here.
There is no shade here, and naturally there are no birds singing.
As the boy raised his eyebrows, a slightly strangely shaped blue-green plant trembled in this desolate place.
Right in front of it, a fiery flame floated out of thin air.
"Not as an example. ”
An icy warning sound came from the flames, and then slowly disappeared into the air with the flames, and the turquoise plants calmed down.
......
Next
Sunrise, midday
The sleeping Luan Niao was still talking with Zhou Gong about the rare delicacies in the world, pecking at the remaining water marks on the side, and I didn't know if it was saliva or rain.
The young man who opened his eyes opened his arms and hugged the fresh air after the rain, and then looked at the luan bird in his arms with some tears and smiles.
I remember that in my impression, Luan Niao seemed to be asleep on his shoulder, how did he slip here?
The young man picked up the bird and gently placed it on the relatively gentle ground, then got up and patted his white clothes, which had not been stained with dust and mud.
The boy didn't disturb Luanniao's sleep, so he put it on his shoulder. It's just that my sister specially told her before she left that she must get rid of Luanniao's problem of sleeping lazy.
Since his sister has spoken, he has no reason to soften.
The young man was just about to go to call the bird to get up to eat, but he saw the moon-white bird that was placed on the ground holding a branch on its two wings, and said with a vigorous voice on its mouth:
"Lao Zhou, I'll tell you the truth, this ginseng is at least three thousand years old, although I haven't eaten this thing, master, but it's the first time I've seen such a big one, so I'm welcome. ”
The young man's eyes widened, this was the first time he had seen a bird eat a branch, I have to say, the peck of the bird is indeed a rare sharp thing in this world, and the tough mulberry branch disappeared in its mouth for a moment.
After "eating", Luan Niao burped, and was still complaining:
"I said Lao Zhou, is your ginseng expired, the taste is so astringent, it is completely different from what I ate before. ”
It's strange if the branches aren't astringent, the young man is a little helpless, if this guy wakes up, if he knows that he eats the branches as ginseng, he will definitely blame himself for a while.
"Hey!" the boy patted the head of the bird with his hand, trying to wake it up, but the bird that tasted the "ginseng" was still immersed in its unique taste.
"Lao Zhou, don't say more, if I eat a bad stomach, you will have to pay me fifty ginseng, yes, it's as big as just now. Luan Bird muttered.
The boy tried to wake Luan Niao again, but ultimately failed.
Scratching his head, the boy suddenly crouched down, with a smile in his eyes, as if he was happy that he had thought of a way to deal with this guy.
"In that case, don't blame me," the boy smirked.
The clouds in the sky that had not yet dispersed were shaken away by a terrible howl, revealing the figure of the golden crow.
"Chirp!"
The moment Luan Niao woke up, he set his eyes on the half-crouching young man not far from him.
Hey, the thing the boy was holding in his hand looked a little familiar.
But it didn't matter, Luan Niao just wanted to know what was going on to wake him up instantly.
Luan Niao was a little depressed, and before Lao Zhou agreed to its request to blackmail ginseng, he was taken out of the dream by inexplicable pain, which was a catastrophe for foodies.
The ghost knows if Lao Zhou will remember this next time, and even if he does, he will definitely play tricks and refuse to give it.
As soon as he thought of this, Luan Niao felt extremely depressed, and the ginseng in his mouth was gone, and anyone else would feel depressed.
However, it seems that the boy didn't do it, so why did his intuition tell him that it was him?
Luan Niao looked at the boy carefully, but never found any motive for his crime.
Wait a minute!
Watching the young man bend the white object in his hand at will, Luan Bird's somewhat chaotic mind finally came to his senses.
This bastard!
The bird rushed forward in a rage, and said why did this thing look so familiar, it was its tail feathers!
Bastard! Bastard!
Before Luanniao rushed in front of the boy, he was firmly trapped in place by the cage that appeared out of thin air.
"I'm going to fight you alone! If you have the guts, let me out, if the master frowns, he won't be a noble bird. Luan Niao shouted angrily.
Pull the feathers, let me beat it, why resist, I don't know if this will make me very faceless?
"Oh?" the young man raised his eyebrows when he saw that the bird in the cage was a little unconvinced, and then blew lightly when it faced the white feathers of the moon in his hand.
In the wide pupils of the luanniao, the whole feather turned into a concubine-colored flame and disappeared.
After a brief pause, an extremely miserable howl rang out throughout the valley.
"You bastard, I'm going to kill you. ”
Luanniao, who has always been proud of his own bloodline, how could he accept that his precious feathers were burned like garbage by the other party.
But before Luan Niao could react in time, he suddenly felt a little burning under his feet, and subconsciously looked at it, so he hurriedly raised his head and said with a "smile":
"Wen, bah, Brother Bai, little brother, I'm just making a little joke with you, don't take it seriously!"
Luan Niao struggled for a moment, and after realizing that he couldn't break through the cage, he forcibly refused to look at the flames of the concubine burning under his feet, and decisively flattered and begged for mercy.
Seeing that the young man ignored himself, in the spirit of asking for others rather than seeking himself, Luan Niao decisively shouted:
"Save the birds! I'm still a child, I still have a good youth, I still have a lot of food to eat, I still have to accompany Brother Bai to explore the rivers and lakes, I can't die here!"
The young man was a little speechless when he heard this guy's begging for mercy, and he didn't know what his sister had taught him, how could it be so strange.
"Can you get up earlier next time?" the boy asked.
"Yes! Yes, Brother Bai, you said that I will start from the fifth watch, and I will start from the third watch, which is absolutely unambiguous. "Luan Bird stretched out his wings and swore to the sky2.
The boy inexplicably felt a little boring, as if it was too boring to play tricks on a bird with insufficient strength.
With a slight wave of his hand, the concubine flame burning under the luan bird quietly dissipated.
The danger under his feet quietly disappeared, and the bird was about to fall backwards when his legs were weak.
"Smack!" Luan Niao suddenly wanted to cry without tears.
This bastard, the moment he was about to fall, actually removed the cage and caused it to fall heavily to the ground.
"I've already returned the feathers to you, don't forget the promise you just made. Also, next time remember, don't drool while sleeping. The boy clapped his hands and straightened up.
"I didn't ......" Luan Niao, who didn't intend to refute, thought of the scene that had just happened, and still swallowed the next words back into his stomach in recognition.
However, he had just counted the feathers on his tail, and there were quite a few of them, which made him feel much better.
He didn't care to go to the young man for breakfast, and after the catastrophe, he cried and cried that the thirsty Luan Niao saw that there were still some dewdrops on the green leaves at his feet, so he wanted to moisten his throat.
Just as the morning breeze was blowing, the leaves shook slightly, and the dew hid in the grass.
Before Luan Niao opened his mouth to scold his mother, the corners of the young man's mouth who was combing his hair curled slightly, and the disappeared concubine-colored flame reappeared, which frightened Luan Niao a lot, thinking that the young man still had to settle accounts after the autumn.
"I remember, I reminded you last night. Why, am I really a bully?" the boy's tone grew colder, and he felt someone watching him from the moment he stepped onto the wooden bridge.
After Xiaoluan fell asleep, the young man saw that the peeping person had not retreated, so he specially warned the other party, thinking that the other party would stop there, but he never thought that he would come directly to the door now, presumably he really didn't take himself seriously.
Years of experience have always reminded teenagers not to plant the seeds of danger, to be cautious about anyone or anything, even the inconspicuous characters may become the last straw.
As soon as the words fell, the flames that were originally wandering around the young man's body suddenly turned into dragons and rushed towards the direction behind him.
"Boom!"
If it weren't for the boy standing in front of him, the bird might have been blown away by the air currents generated by the explosion of the Flame Dragon.
When the field of vision gradually became clear, a young man in a green coat was standing at the site of the explosion.
The man's face was ordinary, his expression was sluggish, and his face was pale, as if he was seriously ill.
Seeing the young man looking at him, the man in Tsing Yi raised his sleeves, gently wiped the blood from his mouth, and then clasped his hands into fists, bowed down and apologized: "I didn't mean to offend last night, don't be angry, son." ”
"Reason. The boy smiled.
Four fiery dragons suddenly swirled around him, all of which were identical to the one that had exploded before.
Obviously, if the answer given by the other party could not satisfy him, these four flame dragons formed by Concubine Yan would completely wipe them out of this world.
The man in Tsing Yi didn't seem to see the danger around him, and bowed down again, pleading:
"There is something to ask for below, and I hope that the son will agree. ”
The young man stared at the man in Tsing Yi and couldn't help frowning.
Luan Niao opened his mouth, looked at the boy and then at the man, not knowing what to say.
The man hesitated when he saw the young man in white, and there was a hint of expectation in his slightly lowered eyes.
Long
The fire dragon entrenched beside the young man quietly dispersed, and the man in Tsing Yi was pleasantly surprised, but the next words extinguished the longing in his eyes.
"I don't say yes!"
