Chapter 37: The Banquet II

Since tossing around the pond in the afternoon, Wu Yan felt extremely tired, and as soon as he returned to the tower, he threw himself directly on the bed and let himself fall asleep all afternoon. When I woke up, I was already in a hot sweat, and the surroundings were still so quiet that I couldn't make a sound, and it must have been another time when no one was around.

Wu Yan pushed the door and walked out, only to find that it was already evening, the sunset was slanting, the sunset was like fire, the night breeze was particularly warm, a shadow in front of the door could not be blown by the wind, the shadow owner was sitting on the railing against the pillar, dressed in black mixed in the gradually gray sky, more like a real three-dimensional shadow. Standing against the light, his expression was completely blurred, leaving only a pair of bright eyes, but he dodged after Wu Yan's gaze came, only shook his hand into a fist to his lips, and coughed lightly in a pretending to be relaxed but unnatural.

It was the young chime who had been thinking about but never seen in their hearts for the past few days, and the two of them were secretly angry for these days, and no matter how angry they were, they hesitated and embarrassed when they met for no reason.

Wu Yan let out a "hey", and originally sighed, but after glancing at Ying Qi, his voice was raised upward, as if he was saying hello.

Seeing that Wu Yan opened his mouth, Ying Qi also jumped off the railing, and was about to say something, but opened his mouth but closed his lips tightly. Because he found that the girl in front of him had a red face, her hair was messy, and in his eyes, she looked like a doll, extremely cute and innocent, and extremely beautiful and eye-catching. The eyes that stared at him were as clear as water, without a trace of impurities, but they saw their hearts pounding for no reason.

He frowned slightly, turned his head, cleared his throat, and took a step back secretly.

It's a pity that he was slapped on the shoulder in the next second, and the girl who had just woken up looked very unsightly, so she said while pulling his collar, "What, I'm afraid I'll eat you." ”

The words were very polite, and the attitude was very arrogant, he even forgot to be angry, but felt that the mood that had been heavy for several days was unprovoked. After turning his head, he still frowned and made a straight face, and continued to say in an angry voice, "Don't make trouble." ”

As soon as these two words came out, I saw that the expression of the girl in front of me had deteriorated, and the hand that was pulling her collar suddenly pinched her neck. The pain is some, and the itch is even deeper, deep to the bottom of the heart, and the itch makes the whole person want to laugh unconsciously.

In his ears, Wu Yan chattered as if complaining, "I said that I would be blessed and shared, I have been very free these days, and I don't return to the waves at night......"

The girl's hand was still on her shoulder, and the clothes that had slept messily and untidied before were obliquely exposed to a large piece of jade white skin on her neck, and she frowned unconsciously, and took Wu Yan's hand away from her shoulder, and straightened out her neckline smoothly, and opened her mouth coldly, as if explaining, and as if covering up her own actions just now, "I didn't stay home at night, I have come back to the tower to rest......"

"I know. Wu Yan immediately took over the conversation, "I know you're coming back, and if you don't come back, where will you sleep, there are stables in the palace, and you haven't built a cowshed." ”

Knowing that Wu Yan compared himself to a cow, Ying Yan was stunned, as if he was about to grab something, and muttered repeatedly, "So you know ......"

"Of course, I have to pretend that no one is there when I come back. Wu Yan stood close, could hear it, and even more angrily "snorted", and said, "Deliberately didn't come to me, and deliberately didn't let me come to you, it's really a cow." ”

As soon as the words fell, Wu Yan suddenly glanced at Ying Qi strangely, and asked suspiciously, "Ying Qi, are you still not angry, how do I feel that you came to me today to take revenge on me, why are you so different from usual, and you are not angry......?"

The girl looked directly at Ying Qi and defined: "Could it be that you are afraid of me? I didn't know that you were so afraid of me." ”

It's not like it is usual? It's because it's not as good as it used to be. Afraid, he was afraid, but what he was afraid of, even he himself couldn't say it thoroughly. From the first time he saw the witch Wu Ying, he had the figure of the woman in his eyes, and he studied hard day and night to cultivate, but he hoped that one day he could stand beside the woman and stay by her side. But when did he start to see his heart clearly, when did he have something more, so that the yearning he once had was slowly distant and vague, just like yesterday's dreams and old habits, but the girl in front of him became more and more vivid in his heart, and could easily affect his joy and anger.

She let her look and speak to provoke anger, but she was still afraid that she would find something, so she rolled her eyes with disdain, maybe even he was afraid that he would find something, and expel all kinds of thoughts from his mind.

As the sun sets, the tired birds return to their nests. A flapping sound of wings landed on the head of the young man, interrupting the contemplative young man's thoughts. It was Xiaobai, who had returned from foraging and playing, staring at the motionless two people under the eaves with black eyes, looking like he was waiting to watch a play.

"Tonight the witch is invited to the harem for a banquet, if you want, go and change your clothes, I will take you to eat delicious food, if you don't want to, I will leave first. ”

As soon as the words were spoken, the girl in front of her stared at herself without blinking, and the doubts on her face had long been replaced by joy, and she knew what her answer was at a glance.

Wu Yan didn't hesitate for a moment and immediately turned around and went back to the house to change her clothes, if she turned around at this time, she would definitely find that the sunset was shining in the sky behind her, red and purple, and the streamer was like a dream. And under the dreamy sunset, the young man in black was staring at him, his face was calm, but there was a gentleness that even he didn't notice.

She didn't turn around, so she didn't notice, and even Ying Qi didn't notice that she was strange at that time, and she didn't think to look for the moment when he had secretly born his own thoughts. They are too young, so they are ignorant, so when they look back on the past, they have long since passed through the past, they are no longer the same as they were back then, and their thoughts at that time are nowhere to be found.

Even if Wu Yan realized something at that time, and Ying Qi realized something, they were destined to be unable to distinguish all their emotions clearly. At that time, he was just a small secret guard beside the witch of the Tianshan Mountains, he had no strengths, relying on diligence to make up for his clumsiness, relying on his own martial arts to gain a foothold, and he couldn't say anything else about self-preservation. Even many years later, standing on the highest position in the Tianshan Mountains, he did not dare to assert that he was safe and self-protecting, not to mention how to take care of her and these emotions back then, or more.

A word of love, there is no trace, it is born out of nowhere, and it is extinguished for no reason. But as long as you live, you will always be aware. A spark can start a prairie fire. Love burns like fire, and the traces left in life will never be extinguished. If you fail to protect and persevere, sooner or later it will be annihilated, whether it is like a candle flame, the wind passes quietly, or it is like watching the fire from the other side, and the fire will stop.
