The room was pitch black, and only the silver threads on the gauze tent could be faintly seen.

Outside, it was raining heavily. Occasionally, there was a flash of lightning and thunder.

It's hot, it's unusually hot, so hot that Mingxi is covered in sweat. Daddy's long hair wrapped around her waist, her shoulders, and even a strand around her neck, strangling her throat with pain.

She gently lifted the covers and tried to get the hair off her body.

"Well, what's wrong, baby?" Daddy asked wistfully behind her back.

Hearing his voice, her hands trembled, and her heart tightened inexplicably: "I want to go to the toilet," she hurriedly touched her surroundings, "where are my clothes?" I can not find. ”

Daddy got up and lit the candle next to the bed. Rudou's light was a little dazzling, and she hurriedly blocked it with a quilt.

Daddy got out of bed, walked to the door, picked up her little shirt, and leaned over, her slender and sturdy figure looming in her long hair, and she could see that her face was red.

"You can't drink cold water in the middle of the night, you go to the toilet first, and Dad will make you a pot of hot tea."

The toilet was cleaned up by the people, and the smell of orchid incense wafted inside. Mingxi wrapped in a small shirt, leaned against the door, and listened to the sound of rain outside the house in a daze.

For some reason, she remembered that day, it was also raining so heavily outside, and she and Siyu hid in her room. She looked curiously at the fluff on his chest and the outline of his red ears. His fingers carefully touched her skin, his trembling lips kissing her all over her body.

That day, then, she thought it would be forever.

Back in the room, Daddy sat on the slump in front of the dresser, wearing a moire black silk gown, quietly staring at himself in the mirror. His swarthy and smooth hair poured down his straight back, loosely looping around the bamboo mat.

The mottled and twisted shadows of the trees struggled with the lightning of the carved windows. Mingxi was a little scared, walked over, lay on the sitting, and arched into his father's arms like a kitten.

Daddy grabbed her by the shoulders and flipped her over and took her in his arms.

"Daddy, I don't think there's anyone outside the house, there's no one else in the world, it's just the two of us in the world." She said the strange thoughts in her heart, "Shall we not go out in the future?" No one else was seen again. ”

Daddy still didn't speak, still carefully looking at the figure in the mirror as if he didn't know himself. The glowing yellow candlelight flickered, sprinkling a little bright sea water in his blue eyes, so beautiful that it could make people scatter the three souls and seven spirits.

Looking at his handsome face, Mingxi's heart suddenly flooded with an unprecedented feeling, itchy, crispy, and messy. Involuntarily, she reached out and put her palm over his collarbone, caressing his tight chest, caressing his already completely blue belly, and finally resting on the hot lower abdomen.

Always be with Daddy, never go out, it may not be, anyway, Siyu never wants to see her again, besides Daddy, who else is worth my attention?

Suddenly, Daddy's cold fingers stopped on her lips: "You are my Mingyue's daughter, only my baby, you are young, and you haven't tried a lot of happiness." Should I leave you behind, or should I take you away? Hehe, don't want me, and threaten me with the person you love the most, your mother succeeded," Daddy gritted his teeth and laughed almost uncontrollably, "It's because I love her that I fell for her." She's driving me crazy, Xi'er, you know, Daddy has gone mad, as she wants, Daddy is already in hell. ”

In the unfamiliar breath, her expression in the mirror was stiff, clutching the placket on her chest tightly, biting her lip.

Suddenly, Daddy straightened up, clamped her chin, and turned her face towards him: "It doesn't matter, and Xi'er has been with me all the time, what are you afraid of in hell?" With that, he kissed him fiercely.

The smell of blood mixed with the scent of rose balm created a ghostly temptation that made those in it lose their minds.

The candlestick "snapped" and then went out, plunging the room into darkness again.

Outside, the rain became more and more intense, and it did not stop all night.

……

Daddy said that this place was very important, and Mingxi couldn't see anything special, only the mountains overlapped and the clouds were shrouded.

Daddy told everyone that he was going to pay homage to his relatives with Mingxi. Mingxi didn't understand why Daddy wanted to get rid of his subordinates and bring her here, she didn't understand many things he did.

To enter, you must first pass through a very quiet wood, where birds and insects are constantly singing, and the ground is covered with thick yellow and green moss, which is soft to step on. There are still small mushrooms growing shyly under many trees, some white and yellow, which look no different from ordinary woods.

Daddy walked fast in front, a golden robe dancing with the wind.

As we walked, a strange mushroom appeared in the forest. As wide as a large bowl, the whole body is bright red, and on each mushroom umbrella is faintly a face with a distorted face, a mouth wide open, and a terrified and painful face, vivid.

"Xi'er, don't touch them, follow Daddy." Daddy reminded.

As soon as they entered the woods, the sky had become cloudy, and after a few hours, the sky was still white, as if there was no day or day in the woods.

I don't know how long later, a canyon filled with a thick milky white mist appeared in front of me. It wasn't so much fog as clumps of living white smoke, swimming freely in the canyon, and a few even flew over and circled Mingxi's head twice.

Mingxi walked so much that he lost his strength, and there were big blisters on his feet, and when he saw these strange fogs, he couldn't help but feel furious: "Daddy, will there be ghosts in it?" ”

Daddy smiled softly, walked over and picked her up and flew into the canyon.

"According to the ancestral teachings, this road, the Ming family must walk with their feet." Daddy laughed.

"Why?" She buried her head in her father's arms, sneaking a sneak glance at the eerie white smoke that surrounded them.

"It's a blessing for us people from the Ming family to be able to come here by ourselves."

Passing through the valley, it suddenly opened up to a wide flat land with rippling green waves, dotted with hundreds of clusters of red and white flowers that resemble the moon season. In the middle of the flat ground there is a blue brick avenue, and on both sides of the avenue are various animal statues.

"Daddy, it's beautiful and weird, what kind of place is it?"

Daddy put her down and raised his chin proudly: "Of course this place is not ordinary, the Ming family cemetery has many mechanisms, every grass and tree has mysteries, and every ant who wants to break into the Ming family's cemetery has become a corpse mushroom." ”

The Ming family cemetery? Hearing the word "cemetery", Mingxi's scalp was numb, and his hairs stood up.

"Daddy, let's go back." In addition to the fear of the dead, she also had an inexplicable fear floating in her heart. She was stupid, and she couldn't say a lot of thoughts, but she vaguely felt something.

Mingxi grabbed Daddy's hand and begged, "Daddy, I don't want to come here, Daddy, I'm hungry, I want to go home for dinner, I want to go home with you for dinner." ”

Daddy took Mingxi's shoulders and walked forward with her undoubtedly, but there was still a doting smile on his face.

Mingxi simply squatted on the ground and played a scoundrel: "I'm going to starve to death, my father doesn't love me anymore, I want to go home." ”

Daddy sighed, grabbed her belt and lifted her firmly, holding her firmly in his armpit.

"Ah——, Daddy, I'm going to hate you, Daddy, ah......"

Daddy turned a deaf ear to her screams.

After a while, a large stone platform in the shape of an altar appeared in front of it, and there was a statue of the sun and moon on the top of the stone platform. There are hundreds of large and small white stone tablets scattered under the stone platform, and there is a white jade bag behind each stone tablet.

Daddy looked at the big stone platform, and the expression on his face was solemn: "The family crest of the Ming family, the sun and the moon shine together, everyone in the Ming family has their own place here." ”

"Daddy too?"

"Absolutely."

Walking among the many stone monuments, Mingxi's whole body was covered with an inexplicable chill.

Her body trembled like a dead leaf in autumn, and she only knew that she was holding on to her father's clothes, kept kicking her feet, and complained to him about her unspeakable grievances with a handful of snot and tears: "Daddy, I want to go home, I'm afraid, I won't go, Daddy, I won't go, I won't allow you to go." Let's go home, Daddy, I can't live without you, I won't go ......"

Daddy's place is in a secluded corner. A clean white jade stele, with the book "Fu Mingyue, wife Ming Zhu's joint burial tomb". The words "Wife Ming Zhu" are painted with red lacquer, and the words "Fu Mingyue" have no color, and in front of the monument is a clean and open space paved with white jade.

The moment he saw the tombstone, his father's eyes softened, he stared at the tombstone and smiled gently: "Ah Yue, I'm here." ”

Feeling that his hand strength was getting smaller, Mingxi took the opportunity to break free from his hand and retreated to the side.

A light breeze blew, raising the long hair that was stuck to Mingxi's face with tears, and the crystal tears splashed in all directions, blocking her eyes.

"No matter how beautiful you are in your life, in the end, there is only a tomb bag and a stone tablet, why do you have to do it so desperately?" Daddy was still muttering to the stele, "Ah Yue, I remember every word you said." But I don't regret it, how can I regret it? I'm willing to share my happiness with you, why wouldn't? Suddenly, Daddy's tone suddenly became extremely cold, "You don't want it, Xi'er wants it." I tell you, your daughter, Mingxi, her name will be engraved with you, with me. Why, aren't you trying to escape? Will you be able to escape? I will let you die without peace. ”

"Daddy," she looked back at Daddy, "why do you want to engrave my name with my mother, isn't it only husband and wife who can be engraved together?" ”

"Really?" Daddy pressed his temple again.

"Daddy, what's wrong with you these days?" Thinking of his worries and fears during this time, Mingxi was so aggrieved that he was like an irrepressible spring, and tears poured up, "Daddy, you don't look like you anymore." Daddy, what the hell have you done to me? I don't understand, Daddy is my God, Daddy did everything right. But why, why is Daddy changing three times a day now, one will be Daddy and sometimes he will not be Daddy, sometimes I can't even remember what I said, what are you thinking? ”

"What do you think? What am I going to do? Daddy rubbed his temples vigorously with both hands, "What the hell am I going to do?" By the way, I'm going to take you away. ”

With the end note, Daddy suddenly turned around and slashed at Mingxi with one palm. His speed was so fast that Ming Xi didn't even have time to react, so he could only stare blankly at his blue eyes, which seemed to have lost their life and soul.

"Howling-", accompanied by the palm wind of the ghost crying god, his palm swept in front of Mingxi's eyes and folded back stiffly. Immediately after that, there was another "bang", and Daddy flew out, bounced onto the tombstone, and fell to the ground.

However, he immediately struggled to sit up, turned his head to look at the tombstone, and asked as if he had just woken up from a dream, "What am I doing, Ah Yue, what have I done to Xi'er?" ”

Mingxi's brain was blank, and after being stunned for a while, she touched the extra warmth at the corner of her mouth with her hand, and took it down to see that it was dazzling red.

"Snort-" Daddy spurted out a mouthful of blood, staining the words "Fu Mingyue" red.

Mingxi finally came back to his senses, the warmth on his face was Daddy's blood, and he hurriedly rushed over and took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth for him: "Daddy, don't scare me, don't scare me." ”

"Xi'er, did you beat you?" Daddy grabbed Mingxi's hand and asked eagerly, his eyes were full of panic.

At that moment, Mingxi's heart was dizzy, all the dissatisfaction and resentment disappeared, and there was even a little vague sweetness.

How could she be angry with her father before? Her father, her god-perfect father is only hers, and he only worries about her. She was so angry that she belonged to him before, and she felt ridiculous.

"No, Daddy, do you hurt?"

"Ahem," he smiled reluctantly, staring back at the name of his mother behind him, his eyes overflowing with tenderness, "It hurts, your mother is right, people will hurt." This is the first time I've been injured, but luckily I was injured myself. I am the Great Demon of the Northern Regions, who can hurt me Mingyue. ”

Mingxi didn't like him looking at other things when he spoke, so he hurriedly crawled to the side and blocked his mother's name: "It's all my fault, I'm losing my temper with my father again." ”

His eyes were half-sunk, and there seemed to be a trace of desolation: "It's not Xi'er's fault, but it can make me sober up." Ah Yue, what should I do, I made a big mistake before leaving. ”

Looking at his changing eyes, Mingxi was a little panicked, and stretched out his hand to set him up: "No, no, there is nothing wrong with Daddy, Daddy, let's go home and find a doctor." ”

Mingxi felt that he had to leave here quickly, and he couldn't let his father and mother stay for too long, otherwise he would always think of his mother.

But no matter how hard she tried, Daddy didn't move.

"Daddy won't go home, Daddy will be here to accompany your mother from now on. Does Xi'er want to go home? Xi'er will suffer when she goes home, do you want to accompany her father and mother? He said.

Mingxi's heart was so cold that she fell into the ice cave, she didn't want to stay here with her father. After so many years, she has almost forgotten what her mother looks like, and now even if she knows that her mother is lying in front of her eyes, she doesn't feel much. She just wants to go home with her dad and live the exact same life as before.

Daddy smiled softly: "It seems that Xi'er doesn't want to stay here yet." He trembled and took out a beautiful yarn butterfly from his bosom and put it in the palm of her hand, "Go, if you are desperate and want to be daddy, bite the tip of your tongue and take this yarn butterfly in your mouth." When it comes to life, follow it, enter the cemetery safely, kowtow nine times in front of the grave of Daddy and Mother, and you will be able to see Daddy again. Remember, you only get one chance, and you'll never get out if you come in again. ”

Mingxi pinched the butterfly tightly and remained silent.

Dad took out another yarn butterfly: "Daddy will show you, look, bite the tip of your tongue first, and put the butterfly in your mouth." With that, Dad put the butterfly in his mouth and closed his eyes.

After a while, Dad opened his eyes suddenly, opened his mouth, and a colorful butterfly flew out of his mouth briskly.

"Xi'er, catch up with it." Probably because of internal injuries, Daddy's face was already pale, and he spoke angrily, "While Daddy can still control himself, go quickly." ”

Daddy was driving her away, and Mingxi was stunned for a moment, almost unable to adapt to this change. When she made up her mind to never resist again, and to be with him in life and death, he actually drove her away.

Mingxi is unwilling!

"Mother doesn't want you, I want you, I don't want to go alone, I want to go with you." Mingxi said categorically.

He froze for a moment and stared straight at Mingxi, with a complicated look in his eyes.

Mingxi also glared at him firmly.

"Do you want to stay?" Daddy suddenly hugged her to his chest, and his blue eyes flashed with light, "Daddy will change back to this in a while, do you want to accompany me?" ”

Mingxi knew that he was scaring her, and couldn't help but smile shallowly: "I like the way my father looks, really." As she spoke, she pouted tremblingly and narrowed her eyes, "Daddy, kiss me, I like you to kiss me." ”

The graveyard was surprisingly quiet, except for the sound of grass swaying in the wind, and the sound of Mingxi's heartbeat like a rabbit.

Finally, Daddy lovingly held her head.

Mingxi had trouble breathing and grabbed the placket of his clothes excitedly.

A warm kiss gently imprinted her forehead.

Ming Xi opened his eyes and looked at him, his heart falling straight into the bottomless abyss.

"I'm sorry, Xi'er, it's Dad's fault." There was regret and remorse in his eyes, but he was less confused when he looked at Mingxi in those few nights, "Big mistake, go, go quickly." He suddenly resolutely pushed Mingxi away, "Daddy wants to accompany your mother, and Daddy can't accompany you anymore." Be obedient, let's go, maybe Daddy's arrangement is seamless and can keep you safe for the rest of your life. ”

"Daddy, are you guilty?" Men are sorry for women, they are called "negative hearts", Xiao Tao taught her so.

"Yes, I lost your mother, good, Daddy was very fierce to you when he was injured, don't hate Daddy, forget that fierce Daddy." Daddy moved back, leaned lightly on the stone tablet, and the corners of his mouth raised a doting smile that Mingxi was most familiar with, "Siyu likes you very much, when you grow up, if he hasn't married yet, you can be together, Daddy is right." Now, baby, wipe away the last tear and keep up with the butterflies. ”

Mingxi doesn't have the time to think about Siyu now, and he doesn't want to leave his father. But since her father drove her like this, she wouldn't be dead again, she was an arrogant Mingxi. So she wiped her tears, and with a ruthless heart, she stood up and ran towards the butterfly.

"Xi'er," Daddy suddenly stopped her.

She turned around and found that her father's eyes were red.

"Xi'er, if you have an emergency, you can also find Uncle Wuxin to get the gold. Don't take too much at a time, at most take ten taels to the silver village to exchange for silver, and then take it when you run out. Don't let others see your money easily. When you buy something, you first look at how much others spend before you buy it, you know? ”

Mingxi suddenly felt that he was very cruel, and stomped his foot angrily: "Mingyue, I have grown up, I don't want you to care about it in the future." As soon as she finished speaking, even she herself was a little stunned.

This is the first time she has called her father by his name, and she is still angry.

Dad was stunned and smiled bitterly: "Yes, my family Xi'er has grown up." Baby, if you can't stand the grievances, you can use yarn butterflies, and your father is not at ease. ”

What you can never do is to be really angry with your father.

Looking at the few gray hairs on his father's temples, Mingxi felt sour in his heart, and hurriedly turned his head and chased after the butterfly as if he was fleeing.

Running to the end of the blue brick road, she couldn't hold back anymore, and looked up to the sky and shouted: "Ah-"

Hot tears rolled down the corners of his eyes, piercing his cold cheeks. Daddy will never wipe her tears and comfort her again. In the future, she has to walk alone.

The colorful butterfly seems to be human, she runs fast and it flies, and when she runs slow, it flies slowly, always keeping a distance not far from her.

A few times Mingxi turned around and found that the mystery of the road he had just walked had disappeared, and he was so angry that he was furious and frantically searched for it in the woods. After calming down, she looked up and saw that the colorful butterfly was still lingering not far in front of her, waiting, like her father's gentle and helpless gaze on weekdays.

Running and running with it, tired of running, Mingxi discussed with it if she could take a break, it agreed, stopped on the grass stem, she shrunk next to it and fell asleep peacefully.

When he woke up, Mingxi ran after it again. When I saw the long-lost sun, the butterfly flew up and down in front of my eyes for a while, and then turned into a little starlight in the red light of the setting sun, and there was a bright red drop of water on her fingertips.

Ming Xi slowly put his finger into his mouth, and took a sip lightly, Daddy's blood fragrance was so beautiful, better than any jade liquid elixir in the world.

The house is still those houses, and the home is no longer a home. Many people pretended to be unintentional and asked her where her father had gone.

The only thing that remains unchanged is Xiao Tao, she is still called Young Master Mingxi, who accompanies her every day and takes care of her.

In the middle of the night, Mingxi fell asleep, got up and ran to his father's room, which was empty. Frosty moonlight shines through the window lattice and shines on the quiet carved twelve-stringed zither.

She walked over slowly, the coolness running down the soles of her feet and all over my body, very refreshed. Walking to the bedside, she took off her underwear, climbed onto the bed, and hugged the dark red brocade quilt.

The soft fabric, fragrant like a flower, is full of daddy's breath.

She tilted her head, her mind full of those stunning blue eyes.

Daddy whispered softly in her ear, "Xi'er." ”

The beautiful sound fell on her ears like a cluster of vigorous flames, melting her whole body to ashes.
