Chapter 106: Old Memories Become Paintings (3)
After the words came out, Qiu Feng closed his fan, slowly drew down from the top of his head, his eyes wandered, and then he slowly fixed on Jiang An's face, and laughed, "Good quality, good quality, Your Excellency really doesn't ask for retribution." ”
West of the city, rainy night, grace? In Jiang An's mind, some scattered pictures gradually appeared, was it a year ago? In his mind, the image of the man in purple seemed to be just passing by, but unfortunately, no matter how he racked his brain, those scattered pictures could never be pieced together, and the cause and effect of the matter were always incoherent.
Qiu Feng saw his face, his expression was blank, he sighed helplessly, with a little grievance, and said in a low voice, "On a rainy night a year ago, Engong saved his next life from the hands of a group of robbers in the west of Liuyin City, Engong really doesn't remember?" ”
Hearing this, Jiang An lowered his head and groaned, the pictures in his mind were patched together, and in his scattered memories, there was a picture of himself fighting robbers on a rainy night, pouring rain, a panicked man in purple, and a little delicate eyebrows...... If you think about it, it seems that there has been such a thing. In the past three years, I haven't had any major events, and when I'm bored, I occasionally do good deeds of chivalry and righteousness, and there are too many people I have saved, and it is not surprising that I can't remember it clearly. Jiang An raised his eyes to see Qiu Feng's expectant expression, thinking in his heart that he couldn't hurt his heart, so he had to nod and agree.
The pink girl who called for little thought hit the water, and seemed to be a little reluctant in her heart, so she moved in slowly, put the water on the case, and glanced at Qiu Feng as if she was disgusted, then shook her face and jumped away.
Qiu Feng saw the clever girl jumping away, and the ripples in his heart spread slightly at the corners of his mouth in a blink of an eye. The folding fan in his hand fanned a few times, his eyebrows moved, and he turned back to Jiang An and smiled slightly, "I really didn't expect that the little girl actually brought the water." ”
Jiang An stared at the ink that was slowly spreading out in the sky, it was getting late, and he felt a little anxious in his heart, and he didn't notice Qiu Feng's words.
"The grace of saving my life, I can't repay it, I have been bothering for a long time, I am saying goodbye, if my brother is in need, even if I send someone to Yuansheng Temple." Jiang An arched his hand, looked hurried, and said goodbye to the person in front of him.
"Engong, this is?" A look of surprise replaced the faint wave that had just arisen, Qiu Feng raised his hand, "Night is coming, the mountain road is rugged, does Engong still want to go back to the mountain?" Waiting for Jiang An to speak, Qiu Feng enthusiastically pressed Jiang An on the chair, frowned and said, "That day, after Engong saved Qiu Feng, he didn't have time to repay, and he went without a trace for a year. ”
"This ......" Jiang An was called by his benevolent father, engong, or for a "kindness" that he had long forgotten, he was really embarrassed in his heart, and frowned, "I don't come here to ask for favor, besides, this time Brother Tai also helped Jiang An, if it wasn't for Brother Tai, at noon, the old disease recurred, and Jiang An was afraid that he would be worried about his life." ”
"That's right," Qiu Feng flicked his sleeves at this point, a little suspicious, "Today, why did Engong cut off that person's finger?" Eun Gong is not a person who gets angry at will. ”
"Theft." Jiang An got up from the chair, concise and clear, and was about to say goodbye, but when he saw Qiu Feng bowing his head and hesitating, he suddenly turned around and said angrily, "That deserves it!" ”
Such a reaction speed...... It's really ...... Jiang An raised his hand, and was about to open his mouth to say something, when he saw the purple-clothed man in front of him clapping his hands three times in the air, and the applause did not fall, and several little maids with good posture were slender and slender, covering their faces and lifting the curtains. Without waiting for Jiang An to react, Qiu Feng waved his hand and ordered with disgust, "In the future, if you serve your son, if there is a mistake, you will not be spared." ”
When the maids heard this, they bent down slightly and said, "No." The leader of the person, who looked a little older, bent his knees towards Jiang An, with a bit of style, hid his face and smiled lightly, "The subordinates are not serving well, and they still look forward to Gongzi Haihan." ”
Hearing this, Jiang An's mind suddenly froze, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, a little surprised, and raised his hand to push away, "Brother Tai saved Jiang An, how embarrassing is this time...... Why are you embarrassed to bother ...... again?"
"Big brother, are you leaving?" Without waiting for Jiang An to come up with any prevarication, a light voice came from the door, with a little childishness and a little grievance. The girl who called Xiaoyi and Qiu Feng's master ran away angrily, but they were reluctant to go away, so they hid outside the window and eavesdropped. Hearing that this handsome guest was leaving, he felt a little disappointed, so he pushed open the beaded curtain and jumped in. She grabbed Jiang An's white shirt, raised her head and looked childish, "Big brother, are you leaving?" Is it good to stay a few more days, so anxious to leave, but is it good for Shuanghongju to treat his brother? Like water, his eyes were like the waves of the Xijiang River, with a bit of innocence and grievances, staring straight at Jiang An.
"I ......" Facing such beautiful eyes, Jiang An's heart couldn't help but tremble, searching his stomach for a suitable excuse, and his heart moved, and he actually got up, "In the bottom, in the bottom is not what it means." After speaking, he turned his sleeves, but he was surprised to find that it was still sunset, but after just a few words, it had become a dim light.
"So, what does Engong mean to stay?" Seeing Jiang An's hesitation, Qiu Feng saw the gap, and the exit was full of words that could not be refused, he turned around and instructed the maids, "The night is dark, and I will serve my son." ”
"Big brother." Xiaoyi raised his head, still with an innocent face, pulled the corner of Jiang An's clothes, and the girl's beautiful eyes were full of expectation. Jiang An was helpless, looked up at the window, saw that the night had fallen, and thought in his heart that he would go back today, the mountain road was steep, even if he had excellent skills, he wanted to go up the mountain, but he was afraid that it would take a lot of effort, it was really a little troublesome, so he had to nod his head and agree, and make plans tomorrow.
Seeing that he agreed, the clever little man cheered in his throat, and then jumped a step, hugged Jiang An's waist, and his pink face rose up, rubbing Jiang An's body a few times, "Big brother is so good!" ”
"Uh......" Although she is a little girl, after all, she is twelve or thirteen years old, and Jiang An really can't stand such a sudden enthusiasm, and before he gently pulls away the hand around his waist, Qiu Feng in front of him pulls Xiaoyi over and pulls him behind him, with a little more complaint in his eyes. Jiang An caught a glimpse of his expression, and he knew eight or nine points in his heart, and laughed, "No matter how you say it, Miss Xiaoyi is still too small." ”
"Hey," Qiu Feng raised his fan, disapproving, raised his hand and pinched Xiaoyi's cheek, smiled dotingly, and said solemnly to Jiang An, "She will always grow up!" ”
"Uh-huh." Xiaoyi nodded like pounding garlic, and his mouth was broken, "Yes, yes, I will always grow up." After finishing speaking, she knocked off Qiu Feng's hand that was pinching her face, her eyes widened, she pretended to be a little angry, and slapped Qiu Feng a few times, "Wait until I look as big as you, pinch my face again, and fight with you, desperately!" ”
"It hurts, it hurts, girl, you're so heavy!" Qiu Feng pretended to be hurt by her, grinning and dodging. Xiaoyi finished beating him, as if he was afraid of his revenge, he exclaimed, and then turned around, Lingling smiled lightly, her posture was light, like a gust of wind, lifted the bead curtain, and slowly turned out.
"Ahem," Qiu Feng stared at the pink figure and turned out, the corners of his mouth hooked a hint of a smile, and he indulged for a long time before he came back to his senses and explained to Jiang An embarrassedly, "The girl is not sensible, so Engong smiled." ”
"Oh? Really? Jiang An crossed his hands, as if questioning, and as if laughing, "Why can't you see the helplessness of Brother Tai," his eyes wandered, slowly staring at the person in front of him, "Accompanied for a long time, isn't Brother Tai also willing?" ”
"Haha." Qiu Feng raised his hand, a little embarrassment added to his face, and he coughed a few times hard, "Don't talk about this, don't talk about this, it's getting late, Engong should have a good rest, stay until tomorrow, and then come to talk for a long time." After speaking, with a farewell voice, several maids lifted the beaded curtain for him, and hurriedly left.
"Childe?" A maid gently pushed Jiang An, who was still in a daze, and asked tentatively, "Do I want to serve my son to sleep?" ”
"Uh," Jiang An came back to his senses, closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and waved his hand, "It's okay, you guys go down first!" Hearing this, everyone didn't dare to say more, bent their knees and said "no", and left.
Go to bed...... Are you going to sleep again? From noon to nightfall, the sleepiness that should have been consumed has long been exhausted, Jiang An lay on the couch, tossing and turning for a long time, until the sky is about to dawn, and then he fell asleep.
A dream, a dream, and a dream.
For the past three years, he has had the same dream over and over again. Everything in the dream, like yellowed paper, slowly opened in front of his eyes, and he was alone, standing alone between the dim heaven and the earth, hanging from each other. Loneliness, reduced to the loneliness of fear, turned into a ubiquitous breath, pierced into every inch of his pores, and devoured his flesh, this skin, inch by inch. In the trembling dusk of fear, a handful of purple appeared in the distant sky, a handful of purple flowing down from above the nine heavens, like water flowing, and finally slowly condensed into a human form.
In the dim heaven and earth, a bright moon rose, and the purple meandered and flowed, and where it passed, the earth rejuvenated, and the purple and red bloomed all over. That...... It is the only salvation in this vastness! The purple figure sang and danced lightly under the silver moon, the light dancing, the slow step, and the flowing cloud sleeves all tugged at the heartstrings in the depths of his soul, familiar and longing, lingering and overlapping. Finally, desperately he caught up with her, desperate to see the woman's face. After a few chases, his hand finally put on the shoulder of the longing thought, and the woman suddenly turned around, and under the long purple hair, there was a terrifying skeleton buried, and smiled at him so fiercely that her eyes were bleeding.
The skeleton's lips opened and closed, and a gloomy and hoarse voice penetrated the bottom of his heart, hoarse, "You....... how can you forget me......"
