Chapter 53: No Shame

"It's really a lack of people's hearts, snakes swallowing elephants. He even worships the moon as a shooting star. ”

I turned around and met a pair of smiling peach blossom eyes, which were so bright in the night. I was still happy, but suddenly I became gloomy and indifferent. Then he retracted his gaze and made a wish to the moon again: "My wish now is that I don't want to see this person, and trouble him to disappear."

"I'm afraid your wish is going to be frustrated."

I could hear the playfulness in his laughter and the sound of him sitting down.

He sat next to me, and I didn't look back, just looked at the moon. I tried not to look at him, but I still couldn't help but ask him, "Why are you here?" Changji, dressed in inky brocade, was hidden in the night, so much so that I had been aware of his whereabouts.

"I couldn't sleep at night, so I got up and walked, and I accidentally saw a figure on the roof here. I thought that it was not a fairy who had descended to earth, so I hurried to take a look. ”

"Quite discerning, yes, it's the fairy myself." I couldn't hide my joy anymore and looked back at him with a smile.

He hooked his lips and smiled, and added the second half of the sentence leisurely: "Who knew that it wasn't a fairy, it was a stinky girl from the house next door."

The corners of my eyes twitched, and I wanted to kick him down.

When I caught a glimpse of him carrying a blue and white porcelain wine bottle in his hand, I immediately came up. It's cold at night, so it's good to warm up with a sip of wine. I didn't intend to forgive him, but I really wanted to drink it, so I couldn't care about being annoyed, and said with a smile: "I know you're praising me for being beautiful, so don't be embarrassed." Whatever you're carrying, give me a taste. ”

He smiled and tossed it to me. I uncorked the wine with great interest, and a burst of rich wine aroma accompanied by the aroma of green plums came to my nose, which was very sweet.

I took a big sip, and it was very sweet.

"Where did you get the plum wine?"

"Stole!"

He replied to me casually, and the clouds were light and breezy.

I swallowed, stunned for a moment.

He stammered and asked, "Where...... Stole? ”

I suddenly remembered that last year, Anping said that she had hidden a bottle of plum wine under the begonia tree in front of her door, which was intended as a congratulatory gift for the birthday of King Yonghe this year. I was hungry for a long time, and she was reluctant to dig it out, so she had to stay up until the winter moon to open it. Could it be that this bottle of wine is the bottle of green plum wine?

I suddenly panicked, if I let An Ping know that the green plum brew that she had treasured for so long was stolen, and it also went down to my belly...... Tsk, it's hard to imagine the scene of her madness.

"Where did you dig out this wine?"

"Oh, dug under a begonia tree."

I looked at the culprit sadly, but he was still not ashamed, and asked me with a shy old face, "How's it, it's delicious." I drank half of it before, and I'll give you the rest, which is interesting. ”

"Do you know whose wine you stole it?"

He stretched his waist, lay on the tiles with his hands as a pillow, looked up at the moon in the sky, and said indifferently: "I know it." This wine was hidden by my mother, and I saw it with my own eyes, otherwise how would I know that there was wine buried under the tree? ”

It's really bold, tsk, I really know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains!

I gave a thumbs up, admired it so much, and boasted again and again: "You are really capable, you can even find the things hidden by Anping Niangniang, and you are really wise."

He looked at me proudly: "What kind of skill is this, just a bottle of wine." Master, my ability has grown, this is not worth mentioning. ”

I smashed it, smacked my mouth, looked at him and said seriously: "Well, if stealing can be regarded as a skill, you are really good."

"If you get cheap, don't pay me back." He made a gesture to take it, but I hurriedly blocked it, holding the bottle tightly and not letting go.

"I have given everything, how can I have any reason to go back."

I took another big sip and poured the wine into my stomach to warm my body and stomach.

"If you don't drink for nothing, don't drink it, anyway, when Anping Niangniang asks, I will confess you immediately."

Unscrupulous, he straightened up and glanced at me, hooking his lips and smiling: "Cut, white-eyed wolf."

I smiled at him, and he smiled at me. He laughed, but it was really beautiful, better than a full moon, better than a begonia tree.

At the moment, my heart is happy, and I can't help but want to express it. I looked at the moon, raised my wine bag, wanted to elicit such a voice, just opened my mouth, and recited: "Ah! Raise a glass to ......"

"Call the soul, don't let people sleep, catch up Ming'er, I stewed you and boiled the soup to drink, see if you are still barking!!"

This is full of air and deafening sound, and you don't need to think about it to know that it is a flower caress.

I only heard a whining sound from downstairs, and I realized that my "ah" was too high-pitched, causing the wolf howl of the lunar eclipse.

I stammered and couldn't spit out any more words.

The brief silence was immediately broken by Changji's wild laughter, and he pointed at me with great joy, and said, "Your companion is calling you." Why don't you hurry up and reply? ”

I sniffled in embarrassment, not knowing how to hide my embarrassment.

Changji restrained and laughed exaggeratedly, and I lowered my face and looked around.

Suddenly, he asked me, "Are you homesick?"

I'm slandering, nonsense, of course I want to! But the tone is still as gentle as possible: "Well, I really want to." I just sigh that I can't go back, and if I can go home, I don't know how happy I am. ”

Beiqiu is thousands of miles away, the Great Wall separates the mountain, I think I can see far if I stand high, so I always like to climb up the tall building, but I still can't see home, no matter how high I stand. Nanzhan is not high enough to see the castle tower of Kyushu, and Kyushu is not high enough to see the lookout of Kitagu.

Unless I can go up to heaven and stand on the clouds, maybe I can see it.

I looked up at the sky and asked, "Changji, how high do you say the sky is?"

He followed my example, and also looked up at the sky, and after a long time of loneliness, he came back to his senses, and said gloomily: "It's very high, it's so high that it can't be measured."

I smacked my lips and couldn't help but laugh: "Nonsense, it's like I didn't say it."

"Snap", a loud brain melon popped up on my head, I was in pain, and gasped: "Where did I say something wrong, what you said was nonsense."

He looked displeased: "Then you should tell me how high the sky is."

"As tall as the pole grows, the sky is as tall as it gets." Without thinking, I blurted it out.

He was stunned for a moment, and did not speak again.

I closed the chatterbox, took a sip of green plum brew, and let out a long breath.

There was no word, only a clear moon.

I was in a state of embarrassment, thinking that I had made him unhappy by saying the wrong thing again, but he was in a good mood, stretched his arms, stood up condescendingly, and said to me in a loud voice: "I remember the last time you said such things in the library. Is it because I have unparalleled wisdom and virtue, so in your eyes, I am as sacred as heaven? ”

I saved a mouthful of old blood in my throat, gritted my teeth and said, "I didn't think so!"

"It must be because I am tall and majestic, and in the eyes of you little man, I am as tall as the sky. Well, don't quibble, know that you worship me. ”

It's not that I'm talking about him, he sometimes doesn't know how to be ashamed, and he is used to putting gold on his face.

I cut off, too lazy to argue with him.

Actually, I wanted to tell him that it was because ...... Some people are like the sky, you can see it, but you can't reach it. And that's what he sees in my eyes.

A gust of wind blew, and the begonia flower downstairs was blown to tremble, shaking off countless petals. The flowers were blown high by the wind, swirled in the air, and then fell flutteringly, like a snow in the moonlight. I looked back at Changji and smiled brightly: "Haven't you seen snow?" Ever heard that there is red snow in the world? ”

He was puzzled for a moment, and then laughed again: "Although it rarely snows in Nanzhan, it is not that it does not snow, and I saw snow once when I was very young. Snow is only white, how can there be red. ”

He thought I was joking with him, and he replied rather perfunctorily.

I hurriedly said, "It's true." I'm not lying to you, there really is red snow in this world. ”

"Have you seen that?"

I shook my head and said no, but I still said firmly: "Although I haven't seen it, it doesn't mean that there isn't." Legend has it that a person who has regrets in his previous life, if he can see red snowflakes in his lifetime, then this person's next life can make up for the regrets of his previous life. ”

Changji stared at me, hooked his lips and chuckled: "The ethereal legend is not true." He took the sac from my hand, took a big sip, wiped his mouth, and handed it back to me.

I didn't pay much attention to it, and patiently told him: "In my hometown, you can see snow all year round, because the snow on the snowy mountains does not melt. Snow symbolizes cleanliness, just like water, which washes away dirt and sins. There's a myth that's been passed down through the ages. The Snow Girl, who was covered with snow in the sky, came out to apply snow one winter and met a young man who was hunting wolves. The young man is handsome and brave, and the Snow Girl likes him at a glance. But she is a fairy, she can't stay in the world for a long time, and as long as she stays, the winter will last for as long as the world lasts. But in order to be able to see her sweetheart every day, the Snow Girl ignored the rules of heaven and forcibly stayed. Since then, the world has been like winter all year round, cold and abnormal, and many people and animals have frozen to death. The world is snow-white, dripping into ice. Soon after, the boy that Snow Maiden liked also froze to death. Snow Girl regrets it and wants to make up for it as much as possible. The gods told her that if she sacrificed herself, she would bring everything back to square one. ”

I said this, Changji looked disdainful, yawned and said, "Don't even think about it, the Snow Girl must have agreed." This kind of story is all too common. ”

I pursed my lips and snorted, and continued: "Yes, the Snow Maiden agreed, she sacrificed herself and turned into a snowy mountain, and the village that has been waiting for the young man for generations. That mountain is the mountain of lack. That's where my nickname comes from. ”

"Why is the mountain called missing, is the corner of the mountain missing a piece?" He was inherently curious.

I shook my head: "The meaning of lack in Beiqiu dialect is regret. Although the Snow Maiden has become a snowy mountain, she does not know that the gods have only told half the truth. The world returned to normal, but the boy was not resurrected. The Snow Maiden waited for thousands of years, but she couldn't see the boy again. ”

Changji thought for a moment and said abruptly: "What an old-fashioned story, just like the Buddha's disciple Ananda, turned into a stone bridge and endured five hundred years of wind and rain, just to meet a woman. It's stupid. ”

My heart was awe-inspiring, and I was cold. Dull asked him, "Do you think it's stupid and not worth it?"

"Of course it's not worth it." He replied to me seriously.

I was so angry that I didn't want to talk to him.

He was stunned for a moment, touched my head with a smile, and said helplessly: "Why are you unhappy again, don't say it?"

I said angrily, "Don't say it, you always interrupt me."

He sneered, "I won't interrupt you, you just go on." Did the Snow Maiden wait for the boy, and how did the red snow come from? ”

I took a breath and slowly finished the end of the myth: "The Snow Maiden never waited for the boys. Singing sad songs every day, complaining and desolate, like weeping and complaining. Sharp-eyed people also noticed that the snow-capped mountains formed by the Snow Maiden were gradually thinning and slowly melting. People were moved by her love and prayed to heaven. The gods were grateful for the infatuation of the Snow Maiden, so they bestowed kindness. The gods said that if the snow on the earth turned red, the Snow Maiden would be able to see the boy again. ”

"Does the Snow Maiden have her wish? Is there red snow in the sky? ”

"Well, legend has it that it has rained, and people in the mortal world have seen red snow. It's just that the Snow Maiden still hasn't been able to see the boy, but she is relieved and leaves the wish given by God to others. Make a blessing, and anyone who sees the red snow will be able to fulfill the regrets of the last life. This legend is still spread in Beiqiu. ”

Here is what the author himself, I, have something to say:

Out of curiosity about my own books, I was trying to search for my novels on the Internet, and I stumbled upon a website and stumbled upon someone scolding me. I don't even know what I've done wrong!! A wry smile. I wrote this novel with great enthusiasm, just to have readers who would identify with me and like my novel. When readers give criticisms and suggestions, I will listen carefully and reflect on myself.

In addition, I would like to clarify that this novel is written by the author himself, not by ghostwriting. Originally, the title of the book was taken as "Nan Zhan Yu", but later I didn't think it sounded good, so I changed it to the current title. Thanks dear readers for reading, I'll try my best *^O^*
