Chapter 5: Inseparable

In the icy and jade moonlight, the noisy and lively village during the day has been silent, and the hundred-year-old ancient willow is lonely and silent!

Shuangliu Village has a history of more than 300 years, the ancestors migrated from Liuzhou, Guangxi, it is rumored to be the descendants of Liu Zongyuan, although there is no clear record on the genealogy, but there is this record after the Tang literati, the village is west of the Liushui River, south of Niushan, the opposite bank is Hekou Village, under the mountain is Xindian Village, east of Huoying Village of Menzi Township, Penglai County, north along the river is a large area of woods, the woods are scattered with many ancient tombs, inscriptions, stone carvings and Liu's ancestral tombs, Liushui River surrounds most of the village and winds a few kilometers to the north into the Bohai Sea, Shuangliu Village runs through three avenues from east to west, respectively called front street, willow street and back street, runs through nine alleys from south to north, Wenzi Hutong in the middle is the same width as the street, Wenzi Hutong is also called North and South Street, the four alleys on both sides are narrower, can only accommodate two or three people in parallel, large cars and horses can only enter and exit from the east village entrance of Liujie, other intersections are equipped with roadblocks, there is a big pond in the center of the village, two ancient willows stand on the west bank of the pond, the west side of the pond is the field of the village, the field is surrounded by stones, The center uses stone stone to tamp the yellow mud, when the farm is busy, it is for the people of the whole village to play the field to dry the grain, the field was originally built by the two families of the willow house and the Liujia compound, the land reform was confiscated by the Revolutionary Committee, the west village entrance of the willow street is the ancestral hall of the Liu family, the ancestral hall sits in the north and faces south, the civil engineering structure, after several generations of continuous repair, the scale is quite spectacular.

Next to the ancestral hall, a building of the same scale as the ancestral hall is the new style school of Shuangliu Village, before the liberation was a private school opened by the Liujia compound, the east village entrance of the willow street stands by the marble Liu's archway, the archway was built after the failure of the Wuxu change, Liu Yanzu, the father of Liu's father, escaped from the capital and joined hands with Liu Wenhua to build, the people surnamed Liu in the village have also contributed to the lettering, the inscription on the archway is inscribed by Liang Qichao, the mentor of Liu Yanzu!

The most striking thing in Shuangliu Village is the two ancient willows on the edge of the pond, the two ancient willows are several zhang apart, the trunk is hollow but more and more upright, three adults must join hands to hug, the ancient willow is as high as nine zhang away, the crown is huge, the branches cover most of the pond, the taproot of the ancient willow is thick like a millstone, dozens of lateral roots pythons spread around at the bottom of the pond, like blood vessels crisscrossing in the depths of the earth, absorbing nutrients for the main root!

The two taproots grow freely and become one, and countless lateral roots are entangled with each other, you have me, I have you, let it blow and rain, the two ancient willows do not move!

Returning to Shuangliu Village from Liuhetan, Yizhang and Wang Hui were still unsatisfied, the two did not go home, but quietly came to the ancient willow tree, stroking the ancient willow, Yizhang and Wang Hui held hands and hugged the ancient willow, and they couldn't come at all, if Liu Weiji was also indispensable in normal times, the three of them liked to hold hands around the ancient willow since they were children, but until now, the hands of the three of them still can't be closed together, only a dozen centimeters apart, the anxious Liu Weiji and Wang Hui are longer than their arms, see who pulled the hind legs of the three!

Tonight, Yizhang specially came to say goodbye to Gu Liu, the past is like a dream, from the innocent child who laughed and laughed to the ignorant boy who is now in love, Gu Liu witnessed their joys, sorrows, and sorrows, witnessed their hazy love, and also witnessed their infinite vision for the future!

When I was a child, in the summer night, I sat under the ancient willow tree and listened to my uncle Liu Chengzu tell the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl...... Tonight, the two stroked Gu Liu again, staring affectionately, inseparable!

It's hard to give up, it's hard to separate, it's hard to give up and Liu Weiji, she is different from Wang Hui, she passed from the Wang family to the Liu family compound, and she has followed Yizhang to private school since she was a child, she is not interested in the girl's embroidery and weaving and other needlework, but she is keen to learn literature and martial arts, as long as Yizhang likes it, she likes it!

Wei Ji has been smart and clever since he was a child, and his fist and foot kung fu is even more passable, among the nine men in the Liu family compound, Liu Yizhang ranks third, she admires and likes the third brother Liu Yizhang the most, her fist and foot kung fu are all learned from Yizhang, when Yizhang recites ancient texts, the look of Yu Xuanang makes her obsessed, Yizhang has been the child king since he was a child, under the ancient willows, on Niu Mountain, in the willow river, in the woods...... He took the friends in the village to imitate the plot in the storytelling, what Yang Jiajiang, Yue Feichuan, Water Margin, each playing their own roles, Wei Ji played the wife or sister of Yizhang, so that the little Wei Ji was deeply trapped in it and couldn't stop, when he grew up, Yizhang looked even more talented, tall, broad shoulders, angular face, a pair of tiger eyes blazing, walking with the wind, although there are not many words, but words must be done, loud and loud, revealing the domineering of men everywhere...... The third brother is going to leave tomorrow, she is honestly scared all day long, restless, the people in the Liu family compound don't know what Yizhang is going out for, only she knows that Yizhang is dating Wang Hui, she is both envious and jealous of Wang Hui, if her parents don't pass herself to the Liu family compound back then, she is not Liu Weiji now, but Wang Pu, then it must be herself who is dating Yizhang now!

The long night is sleepless, the cold wind is about to be far away, don't ask about the cold and warm future, I hope to be still young when I return, the beacon fire in the north never sleeps, the Jin Ge iron horse battle is still in full swing, the parting never hates to see the night, and the homeland in the dream is not far away.

The winter morning is the lost sunset, there are more farewells to the stars, slowly rising from the horizon, shining on the calamitous land, the black and swarthy cow mountain is dressed in seven-colored clothes, the ox stands like a cow in the open field, the sparrows are jumping between the branches, chirping non-stop, Wei Ji can't help but think of the ancient love song "Evil",

"I want to know you and live a long life. The mountains have no tombs, the rivers are exhausted, the winter thunder and earthquakes, the summer rain and snow, the heaven and the earth are combined, and they dare to be with the king. ”!
