Summer Solstice (Seven)

"At this point, with Bai Gongzi's intelligence, he must have known the ins and outs of what happened in this mulberry valley. โ€

Unconsciously, the sky was getting dark, and the story of Banxia finally came to an end.

The boy stretched his back, he hadn't been so patient to listen to a story for a long time.

"Banxia, let me ask you, do you think Mulberry Valley is a little boring?"

Seeing the young man asking himself, the man in Tsing Yi calmed down, and in addition to the snoring of birds, there was only the noisy chirping of cicadas in his ears.

"To be honest, some, but I've listened to it for hundreds of years and got used to it. โ€

The man in Tsing Yi saw that the incense was burned clean, and the incense ash on the ground seemed to be gone with the wind at any time, and his expression was sad.

Life is like incense, and it will eventually fall into the ground.

"The cicadas are noisy and the forests are quiet, the birds are singing and the mountains are secluded, everything in the world has a fixed number, but since you have lived for so long, why do you want to choose to leave?"

The boy asked again.

The man in Tsing Yi did not answer this time.

How could he not know the preciousness of life.

"I know what you're thinking is nothing more than the shadow in your heart that you haven't forgotten hundreds of years ago, but you don't want to leave, do you?"

The boy asked again.

The man in Tsing Yi looked stunned, and he was surprised in his heart.

After a long time, the man in Tsing Yi stood up, bowed to the young man, and handed over the things in his hand.

"Please ask Bai Gongzi to send this thing to Sangzi for me, she knows how to take it. โ€

The blinking blue-white light of Banxia Origin has a unique aroma, and even the luan bird in its sleep can't help but leave saliva.

The young man did not get up or take it, but looked at the mulberry tree behind the man in Tsing Yi.

"I'm sorry, I can't help with this. โ€

The young man slowly got up with Luan Niao in his arms, deliberately avoiding his position, and did not accept the man in Tsing Yi bending over to salute.

The man in Tsing Yi was in a hurry, and in the end, his origin was separated from his body, his face was as pale as paper, and there was no blood, so he was about to fall forward.

Even with the help of sandalwood, the source is seriously missing, and at this moment he has reached the point of running out of oil and running out.

The boy's refusal made the strings in his heart unbearable, and suddenly collapsed.

However, the young man didn't seem to want to support the other party, and learned to stroke the feathers of Luan Niao from his sister, completely ignoring the man in Tsing Yi.

The breeze blew, and the corners of the young man's mouth twitched, and he asked aloud:

"Why don't you ask me to see the old man again?"

Sang Zi picked up Banxia, who had fallen into a coma, looked at the young man, and shook his head.

"As early as when Daddy died, Auntie's heart was already dead, and I didn't want to hinder Auntie from reuniting with Daddy"

"So you secretly used the seven-colored antlers to make hands and feet in the reincarnation realm, and wanted them to be husband and wife again in the next life?"

The boy looked up, his eyes playful.

"You...... Yes. Sang Zi's face was gloomy.

"You want to save him?" the boy asked.

"Don't tell him," Sang Ziyang begged.

"But he wants you to live. The boy said.

"I know. Sang Zi bit his lip and replied stubbornly.

How could she not know what Banxia had done.

ยทยทยท

When she left at the age of nine, she really didn't plan to go back.

They have done their best, but she, an orphan who has been abandoned since she was a child, and she doesn't even know who her parents are, how can she be willing to become a burden again.

At that time, she seemed to be standing alone in the abyss of despair, surrounded by loneliness and dead silence, and the only thing she could feel was the anxiety and worry in Daddy and Auntie's eyes.

Until that person appeared.

Sang Zi stood in the valley, kneeling down at the village, crying sadly.

She didn't want her parents to see her cowardly appearance at the moment.

"Hey, I said you girl, can you stop crying, listening upset. The man in Tsing Yi appeared casually.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."Sang Zi seemed to have made a mistake, wiping his tears with the back of his hand, but he couldn't help it.

The man in Tsing Yi sighed lightly, as if he had made up some kind of determination, and suddenly disappeared.

"People... What about people?" Sang Zi turned his head and saw that no one was talking to him, thinking that he was terminally ill.

Sitting on the ground, his chest getting hot again.

"Ahem!ahem!ahem!"

Sang Zi tried very hard to restrain herself, but her body still caused a great burden on her.

If there is a wolf in the valley, it is better to kill her in one bite and not torture her, she is really tired.

Sang Zi thought to himself.

"Do you want to live?" the man in Tsing Yi reappeared, but this time his aura seemed to be a little weaker.

Sang Zi shook his head and nodded again.

If he hadn't been sick, Daddy and Auntie wouldn't be sad, and the family was still listening to Daddy's stories in the book by candlelight.

"If you could survive, what would you want to do?" asked the man in Tsing Yi with his hands behind his back.

"Accompany my parents, and when they die, I stay here, take over the teahouse, and spend the rest of my life. Sang Zi thought about it, and until now, she still thought that the man in Tsing Yi was a fantasy in her heart.

"Why, the world outside is very exciting, don't you want to go for a walk?" said the man in Tsing Yi with a complicated expression.

"Yes...... There are still people in this world who regret leaving, and I think they will miss their hometown before leaving. Sang Zi clutched his chest and coughed violently again, and only after he had recovered his breath did he whisper:

"I want to see the village for a few more years, even if it's a year. โ€

It is the wish of the world for those who have left their hometowns to return to their hometowns and return to their roots.

One wishes to leave others and return to his hometown, two wishes to see his hometown with his own eyes, and three wishes... Stay alive

Sang Zi only felt that an inexplicable coolness spread from his chest, and the stuffiness quietly dissipated.

"Starting with the cicada and taking the half-summer as the guide, the seven-colored antlers are knotted and returned to the gods, so the evil yin is dispersed. โ€

This was what Lu Xian said at that time, but Banxia at this time only understood her sneer at that time.

Come to think of it, the seniors who left a long time ago also wanted to go home.

It's just that in the end, he was the only one who survived.

Then, in the days to come, he will take a look at this mulberry valley for them, and see this hometown that belongs to them.

"Thank you. "Sang Zi is a smart girl, when she saw that her condition was improving, she thought that it must be the credit of the man in Tsing Yi next to her. So he hurriedly got up and thanked him.

"Just go back if you're fine, remember to come here every year at this time of year for treatment. โ€

Sang Zi was about to say something, but found that the man in Tsing Yi had disappeared.

Since that day, Sang Zi has also been here, but he has never seen the man in Tsing Yi again.

The next year, Sang Zi came here again, and the man in Tsing Yi arrived as scheduled, not knowing what means to use to "cure the disease" again.

Without waiting for Sang Zi to thank him, the man in Tsing Yi was gone.

A year ago, Sang Zi was untied by the memory of the antler seal, and she also knew the bond between the man in Tsing Yi and her.

"Banxia, when will my illness be completely cured? Sang Zi pouted, tilted his head to look at the man in Tsing Yi beside him and said.

When he heard that Sang Zi's first sentence was Banxia, he already knew that the girl's seal was about to be broken, so he told the girl all the words of the deer fairy except for the cure.

"There are still two years, and patience will pass. Banxia comforted.

"Oh" Sang Zi lowered his head, his expression declining.

"I'll take care of you. โ€

"Okay!" Sang Zi raised his head, his face full of joy.

....

You said you would take care of me, how could you break your word?

You told me that this is your hometown. But for me, a place with a mother, a father, and you is a hometown.

Seeing the reluctance between Sang Zi's eyebrows, the young man couldn't help but sigh lightly and put down his hand.

This kind of life-swapping technique, he will, but he doesn't want to use it.

Then, it's good to be willful for once.

"Here's to you. As early as the moment when the man in Tsing Yi was unconscious, the only remaining origin in his hand was taken over by the young man, and at this time, the Banxia origin was just delivered to Sangzi.

"I don't want to. Sang Zi raised his head, looked at the thing in the young man's hand with a complicated expression, and said stubbornly.

"He has been stripped of this origin from his body, and if you don't accept it, I can't be sure that he will recover. The boy handed out the source again.

This time, Sang Zi hesitated for a moment, and finally took it.

The corners of the young man's mouth twitched, and he motioned for Sang Zi to close his eyes.

Then in the moonlight, he knelt on the ground, folded his hands, looked pious, and said softly:

"The world is unknown, and the cold and summer are years. The wish of the hometown, and the thought of it now. The clouds move, the spirit descends, and the yin is prosperous. The antlers are solved, the cicadas are singing, and the middle summer... Bear. โ€

"The day is in the north, the day is long and the shadow is short, so it is said"

"Summer Solstice"
