Chapter 18 The past is like smoke, and the wine is to the moon

Walking on the lonely streets, only the lonely moon is accompanied. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

No one will understand the loneliness of the moon, and no one will understand his loneliness.

The footsteps were so soft that it was impossible to discern what they were.

Li Yichen stopped, and the footsteps behind him disappeared.

"Why did you come out?" asked Li Yichen without looking back.

"If I don't come out, you'll be sleeping on the streets tonight. Luo Xue's voice came.

Li Yichen's heart warmed, and he turned around and smiled: "Then thank you for taking it in." ”

"Let's go. ”

Luo Xue took Li Yichen to Luofu. Of course, they didn't go through the front door, but climbed in through the wall next to the back door.

"Uh, how can I feel like a thief?" said Li Yichen after climbing over the wall.

Luo Xue glanced at Li Yichen and said, "Phew, what are you talking about......" As she spoke, she pulled up Li Yichen's sleeves and came to the back garden.

"Hey, you wait here, I'll be here in a moment. After leaving such a sentence, Luo Xue quietly left.

"I'm ......" Li Yichen wanted to say something, but saw that Luo Xue had already gone away. He touched his stomach with a helpless expression. Alas, he's still hungry. Although the immortal cultivators are powerful, they have not yet reached the realm of eating qi and valleys. Forget it, if you're hungry, you're hungry. Li Yichen had nothing to do, so he wandered around the garden. Everything around is so silent and peaceful. When he came to the lake, Li Yichen closed his eyes, as if he had blended into the night.

"The moonlit night in the slow pavilion garden is clear, and the soft breeze blows and the water is flat. The fragrance is sparse and the spring branches are thin, and the flowers are lazy and don't hear the sound of the night......"

It seems like a long time.

“…… Sister, it's so late, what the hell are you doing......" vaguely, a complaining voice came.

Li Yichen saw that Luo Xue was walking over with a person holding something. When he got closer, Li Yichen saw clearly that it was a young man in white. I saw the young man in white put the lunch box in his hand on the stone table with a dissatisfied face. Luo Xue pulled the young man to Li Yichen and said, "I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting." ”

Li Yichen smiled and said, "It's okay?"

The young man looked at Li Yichen in surprise and said, "This, this is ......"

"I was about to introduce you, he is ......" Luo Xue was about to introduce, but was interrupted by the teenager.

I saw the young man say incredulously, "Could it be that he is my future brother-in-law?"

Luo Xueqiao blushed, patted the young man's head, and said, "Don't talk nonsense! What, what a future brother-in-law......

"No......," the young man frowned, "Then why did you secretly bring him to the house in the middle of the night and prepare food and drinks for him?"

At this time, Li Yichen opened his mouth to explain: "Under Li Yichen, he is your sister's friend. Because it was too late and there was nowhere to stay, I came here to spend the night. ”

Luo Xue introduced to Li Yichen: "This is my younger brother Luo Xin. He is young and has no mouth to cover, please forgive me. ”

Li Yichen smiled and said, "It's okay. ”

"I know you haven't eaten yet, so I asked Luo Xin to prepare some wine and food. ”

"Thank you. ”

The three of them sat at the stone table, drank wine and chatted.

"Brother Li, you know that my sister is a disciple of Shushan. If you want to be my brother-in-law, you can't do it without some skills...... Ah, sister, sister, why are you pulling my ears?"

Luo Xue tugged Luo Xin's ears and said angrily in a low voice: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, go back to sleep for me!"

Luo Xin immediately begged for mercy: "Okay, I won't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense." Only then did Luo Xue let go of Luo Xin's ears and smiled at Li Yichen: "Don't mind ...... ha"

Looking at the two, Li Yichen suddenly thought of himself and his brother, so he drank the wine in the cup and said, "The relationship between your sister and brother is really good......

Seeing that Li Yichen was a little sad, Luo Xue knew that he remembered some unhappy things again, so she said, "With such a beautiful day tonight, how can there be no enjoyment?"

Luo Xin understood, poured Li Yichen full of wine, and said: "Brother Li, let me tell you, my sister ...... when she first learned to paint."

Luo Xin ignored Luo Xue's murderous gaze next to him, and talked to Li Yichen about Luo Xue's past.

“…… Once my sister came back from Shushan, I went to see her. She happened to be painting, so I was watching from the sidelines. When she found out about me, she became angry and drove me away. I think she was drawing a person, and that person seemed to look a little bit like you......"

Hearing Luo Xin talk about this, Luo Xue's cheeks suddenly turned red, and she glared at Luo Xin and said, "You, why do you say everything?"

Luo Xin said strangely: "Sister, what can't you say about this? By the way, sister, you haven't told me who the person you painted is yet!"

"You ......" Luo Xue secretly glanced at Li Yichen, and saw that there was nothing abnormal in his expression, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Luo Xue glared at Luo Xin again and said, "Drink your bar!"

"Really, I'm having a good chat with Brother Li......" Luo Xin muttered dissatisfiedly and drank the wine. Ever since he saw Li Yichen, he had a good impression of him. He thought that if Brother Li became his brother-in-law, it would be good. So he introduced his sister to Li Yichen in his way. If Luo Xue knew what her brother was thinking at this time, I am afraid she would regret calling him out.

Unconsciously, Li Yichen had drunk a lot of wine and was a little drunk. He raised his glass, looked up at the moon and said, "Would you like to hear my story?"

Luo Xin was about to answer "yes", but was stopped by Luo Xue's sharp look.

Li Yichen drank the glass of wine, stood up and said, "I have two elder brothers, one is named Li Pao and the other is Li Ze. When I was born, my two older brothers were already teenagers. After I was born, my father named me Li Shang. He may have chosen this name for us because he wanted the three of us to live in harmony forever. Unfortunately, we let him down. ”

After another drink, Li Yichen continued: "When I was young, my two elder brothers often taught me to read and took me to play together. That was when we had the best relationship. Later, the eldest brother and the second brother became a family and shared the family business for his father. I also learned a lot from them.

When I was eight years old, an official came to my house. My eldest brother welcomed him warmly, and I peeked at them outside the door out of curiosity. I heard them discuss how to embezzle the materials of the court and how to make huge profits from the people. The more I listened, the more angry I became, and finally I couldn't help it and rushed in. I'll never forget that day!" Li Pao slapped me and kicked me out with all the rage. Afterwards he said to me, "I am still young, and I don't understand the things of adults." I really don't understand. Why did he just teach me the morality of benevolence and righteousness, but then he violated the morality of benevolence and righteousness when he turned around?

Later, as I grew up, I read more books, saw more things, and finally understood what I didn't understand before. We grow and learn in order to maintain the goodness and justice in our hearts. But the world is too filthy and unbearable. Once a person enters this world, if he does not stick to his heart, he will soon fall. So, I was determined to make the world clearer and brighter. I was fourteen years old.

After that, I went to do a lot of things, but there was no end to the beginning. I really can't stand the ugly faces of the people around me. So he wrote poems, drank wine, indulged, and tried to vent his inner dissatisfaction and resentment. Since then, my relationship with my two older brothers has deteriorated. My father was also seriously ill at that time and was bedridden for many years.

That year, my dad died, and I was drunk at home for three days. My eldest brother was furious and kicked me out of the house for this. I was young and vigorous at the time, so I left Yuzhou alone and wandered around. For two whole years, that was when I was at my poorest. During this period, I deeply experienced the pain and hardship of the people at the bottom of the world. They struggle every day to survive. When a person's survival is in question, how can we talk about benevolence and morality to him? I really want to change all this, but I can't do anything about it.

Three years ago, Master took me as an apprentice and took me on the path of cultivating immortals. I thought that if I had the ability to transcend the world, I might be able to change the world. After three years of cultivation, I set foot on this land again. ”

Suddenly, Li Yichen slammed the wine glass in his hand to the ground and said angrily: "Leng Yue! He indiscriminately killed a flower demon who saved people's lives, and chased and killed a demon for no reason. And he said, 'His heart will be different if he is not of my race.'" What a bunch of nonsense! How can the good and evil in people's hearts be distinguished by race? He said that I colluded with demons? Hmph, I would rather be friends with demons than be in the company of people like him!"

"Okay! Well said! Brother Li, I really admire you so much...... Oh, sister, why are you pulling my ears again......" Luo Xin heard Li Yichen's words and clapped his hands in praise.

"He's drunk and talking nonsense, what are you coaxing?" Luo Xue glared at Luo Xin and said.

"Yes, yes, I was wrong. You, will you let me go first?" Luo Xin cried and begged for mercy.

Luo Xue snorted lightly and let go of Luo Xin. Luo Xin rubbed his ears and pursed his lips.

Li Yichen seemed to be tired and lay directly on the ground.

Seeing this, Luo Xue hurriedly said, "It's cold on the ground, get up quickly." As he spoke, he stepped forward to help Li Yichen.

Li Yichen waved his hand, looked at the sky blankly and said, "Many words have been held in my heart for many years, and now I say it, it's really comfortable!"

"Hi, Brother Li, I support your ambitions. Come on!" Luo Xin whispered to Li Yichen, and ran away. Luo Xue shook her head angrily and funny.

"Your brother, that's interesting. Li Yichen said.

"He's so old, he's like a child. ”

"That's fine. Child, always carefree and without worries. ”

"Hmm...... You, you'd better hurry up. I've got a room ready for you, so go get some rest. ”

Li Yichen smiled slightly, and said a little tricky: "I'm drunk now, I can't get up." ”

Luo Xue smiled and said, "Okay, then you can sleep here, I don't care about you." ”

"No, if you leave me alone, it's not good for me to be considered a thief tomorrow morning. ”

"Then hurry up. With that, Luo Xue stepped forward and helped Li Yichen up.

After cleaning up the cups and plates, Luo Xue led Li Yichen to the guest room. Under the silent night, only Li Yichen's faint soft voice was heard: "The wine is golden and the moon is shining, raise a glass and talk about the world with drunkenness." As soon as the breeze leads to the clouds, the bright moon will fly the jade tree obliquely. The path is fragrant and attracts pink butterflies, and the ancient trees on the wall fall jackdaws. When will the story of the wind and dust end, and the ...... of dreams will be seen in the rivers and lakes"
