Eighteen years later

The alley attic, the deep courtyard house door, the walker and the pawn, the singer and the merchant.

A carriage slowly drove into the Wan Dynasty in early autumn, the carriage was hung with tassels in a circle, there were palace bells ringing at the four corners, the two batches of black horses pulling the carriage were covered with oily hair without a single miscellaneous hair, the torso was strong and the limbs were slender, the eyes were clear as pearls, and they walked with their heads held high, as if telling their noble bloodlines and blowing what firm feats they had made.

The carriage followed a man and a woman on the left and right, the man was dressed in a smoky gray suit, with long hair standing high on the back of his head, lean and capable, with an uninhibited temperament and a noble atmosphere, and at first glance he was not the son of an ordinary family.

The young man is like a star, fresh and handsome, and his appearance is extraordinary, he laughs and talks with the woman on the other end from time to time, and his every move is chic and unruly, making it difficult to turn his eyes.

And the girl in red was annoyed by this young man's face, but her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her admiration was self-evident.

Although the girl's bright teeth and bright eyes are young and very pure, she is a smile and a beautiful child, born with the ability to seduce people's souls. She is dressed very differently from the women around her, the exotic costumes are brocade and embroidered, but under the red and gold, her exotic style is more beautiful like a bewitching queen, and the gold chain and gems will also line her like the most beautiful flowers in the deepest part of the desert grassland, and a pair of eyes are like deep pools that make people fall to death.

"Why does the master come to this Wanchao every year in early autumn, this ghost place is cold in the morning and evening, and hot in the afternoon. The meat is not fragrant, the vegetables are not fresh, the wine is not strong, and the pastries are so-so, but the amount is small enough to eat! Isn't this the sin that you have come to suffer? The girl rode a horse and planted Yang Yang's flat mouth, and her face was full of unhappy, unhappy, unhappy, unhappy.

The young man listened but was not happy, raised his whip and pointed to the busy streets around him, and his words were full of pride: "Isn't the Wanchao more lively than your grassland, the merchants are gone, all the things are available, the streets are neat and clean, the fruit plate in early autumn is varied, after a while, the crab roe come down fat and attractive, the good wine is brewed for the first time, and the aroma of opening the can comes to the face." What's wrong with such a prosperous world, how can it become a ghost place in your mouth. ”

"This is your home! Of course you say yes! Come back and see your father, queen mother, and your blind brother! You're not happy! The girl seemed to be quite dissatisfied with the young man's boasting of Wan Chao, and she opened her mouth and began to contradict it, showing no mercy.

In the face of the girl's evil words, the young man was not false at all, his eyebrows glared, his lips and teeth lightly opened, and he began a vicious battle: "You wild girl, how can you not learn anything after following the master for ten years, my imperial brother is blind and not blind, and besides, in terms of seniority, he is the master and the eldest disciple, you wild girl still have to be honored as a senior brother, there is no etiquette at all, and it is really a person who has lost the master." ”

"Phew! I, Helan Roujing, is the princess of Yansai! Who are you to call me a brother and a brother, I am a relative of the Helan royal family, you can't afford to climb my relative! If it weren't for the master's face, I would have used this whip to dismantle you a long time ago! ”

"Huh? The master's cultural class is really for you, it won't be shameful, and it's shameful to use it indiscriminately. Royal family? Who isn't a royal anymore? You're a princess, I'm still a prince! Do I have you Helan Rou arrogant? ”

"Mu Zhan! Out of the grassland, you just contradicted me like this! I warn you not to appear on my territory in the future! Otherwise, I'll find someone to split your five horses!" ”

"Yo he, this time I spoke very neatly, you see what you said is as if I don't scold you so much on weekdays, I have always spoken without taboos and fears. Have I ever been afraid of you? Don't think about the pastries with traps all the time, the traps in the pastries are full of tricks, and your pretty little head should not be full of water. ”

The more Mu Zhan spoke, the happier he became, and the expression on his face was full of pride and arrogance, as if he deliberately made such a cheap appearance and deliberately angered Helan Rouyi. The two of them are so noisy on weekdays, and when they have been arguing for so many years and are not bored, Mu Zhan is very much like his father and the emperor likes to talk about it for a while.

Unfortunately, Helan Rouyi is also very much like her father, and she has a temper and says a few words, but she wants to do it.

Helan Rouyi gritted her teeth by Mu Zhan, a row of silver teeth creaked, the hand holding the whip even had its joints so hard that it began to turn white, and a pair of beautiful eyes like a falcon were full of ferocity, as long as this Mu Zhan said one more word, she would immediately hit him all over the ground regardless of the situation at this moment.

Mu Zhan, who had the upper hand, sat triumphantly on the horse, opened his mouth to speak, and the people in the carriage finally couldn't help but scold these two fiery and energetic people, "Zhan'er, shut up." At the feet of the Son of Heaven, in front of all the people, he was not ashamed to speak with a little woman. Don't you know how to let your junior sister? And said that your junior sister learned in vain? A humble gentleman, don't say everything, don't do everything. Patience and humility, the heart is as calm as water. So close your mouth and think about it. ”

"It's the master, the apprentice knows it's wrong." After being reprimanded by the people in the carriage, Mu Zhan became quiet, and turned his face to the other side in frustration, secretly sulking. It looked like a puppy in the water, weak, pitiful and aggrieved, and a pair of bright eyes were eclipsed, which made people feel distressed.

Here, Helan Rouyi looked like a villain, shaking her head and tail on the horse, she no longer verbally stimulated Mu Zhan, because she knew that she was also at fault, and she was afraid that the next thing the master would reprimand was herself, and it was a smart person to sell it if she got cheap.

The two of them were noisy and noisy on the street, but the atmosphere of the city was not reduced at all, and the people in the car reached out and quietly lifted a small corner of the curtain of the carriage, revealing a small gap to see the bustling world.

Why do you want to come to Wanchao in this golden autumn and September? Because in September, there are chrysanthemum cakes, there are Wanchao meetings, there are Mid-Autumn Festival, there are lantern festivals, and there is a teenager who wants to celebrate his birthday.

The Palace of the Ten Thousand Dynasties, the Hall of Golden Scales.

This golden scale hall is the most elegant place in the palace, there is no gold and silver, there is no red wall, the decoration is black and white in addition to plain color, it is not so much a palace here as a study, the transparent pavilion is hung with light gauze Luo Man, the snow-white yarn floats slightly with the wind through the hall, like a fairyland of smoke on earth.

There is a shallow small pond in the palace, the muddy body is transparent and you can see the stone koi in the water, the depth is only a palm standing on the water surface, the house extends a trestle bridge directly to the center of the small pool, and then erects a scaffolding to hang with light yarn, stands half of the high mountain water barrier, puts a small table behind two thick cushions, there are pen, ink, paper inkstone, tea and pastries, and seven or eight books on the table, each of which is wrinkled by the corner of the book, and it can be seen that the master has repeatedly read it many times.

And the young man in the lake is as bright as a jade tree in front of the wind, and Mo is like a jade. The oblique shadow of the green building is sparse, and the slender hands are like jade fat. The face is like a steep mountain with sharp edges and corners, and the skin is better than the snow, and the bomb can be broken.

Dressed in white, he was independent, but he was blindfolded with a white scarf.

He sat quietly alone, but his ears moved gently up and down, left and right, and after listening carefully, the corners of the young man's mouth suddenly hung a smile, like a thousand years of snow melting in the warm sun.

The man dressed in black walked for a long, long time, and finally walked behind him.

"Great wizard, you can call people wait." The young man's voice was as warm as him, gentle as a pool of water under this place, caressing the sand and gravel with great warmth, like the evening breeze blowing bamboo leaves at night, like the light and lonely falling of the first snow, in short, like all the good things in the world, quiet years.

"My ears are getting better." The great wizard sat opposite the young man dressed in black, and the white mask was painted with red paint on a delicate and lovely woman's cherry mouth.

The young man smiled, "The great wizard is different from others, there is no breathing, no heartbeat, only the sound of clothes rubbing, it is very recognizable." ”

"Nonsense, if there is no heartbeat, then I am not a dead person. If I were a dead man sitting in front of you, would it be a ghost who spoke to you? ”

"By replacing the eye with the heart, you can distinguish the truth from the falsehood of good and evil, you can see the root of everything, and you can distinguish the importance of life and death."

The great wizard chuckled, stretched out his hand and leaned forward, grabbed the white towel tied in front of the young man's eyes, the young man slowly opened his eyes, the sun illuminated his golden pupils more thoroughly and beautifully, there is a thing called glaze in the Western Regions The color of the glaze is crystal clear, the luster is full and amazing, his golden pupils are like living glaze, the beauty is difficult to turn his eyes, for fear that it will be broken and disappear in the next second.

He was like a fairy and ghost, his eyes were full of smiles, and he seemed to seduce everyone who looked at him, dangerous and unstoppable.

"Don't pretend to be a teacher, you're not blind, what do you say to replace your eyes with your heart." The great wizard threw the white scarf on the table, and looked at the beautiful young man in front of him through the white mask, although he watched him grow up since he was a child, but when he saw him every year, he couldn't help but sigh that he was really a peerless beauty, and he was beautiful in the prosperous world.

The young man's eyes flowed, and his lips opened lightly, but he was full of grievances, "My father said that I am blind, and I am blind." Who doesn't know that the great prince Mu Jian is a blind man, a fragile person like porcelain, who can't go anywhere, can't do anything, and can only live in fear in this golden scale hall in this life. The most ridiculous thing is that I have two purposes in my name, is this sarcastic to me? It's ridiculous. ”

Mu Jian's tone of voice was very steady, there was no loud quarrel, no roaring and collapse, some just slowly lost and self-deprecating. He was like a meteor in the sky, shining brightly but slowly falling after a flash. As the old saying goes, is the man the same?

"If the eldest prince feels bored, I can discuss with Your Majesty and take you out for a walk." Thinking about it carefully, it is really distressing to compare Mu Zhan and Mu Zhan, Mu Zhan has been by his side since he was five years old, has been to the desert Yinchuan, has seen mountains and rivers, eaten the meat of the grassland, drank the wine in the mountains, experienced thousands of sails, walked thousands of roads, and there is a noisy junior sister like Helan Rouyi who jokes and frolicks every day.

Since the age of five, he has listened to himself describe how wonderful the outside world is, how steep the mountains and rivers are, how interesting strange people and strange things are, and how beautiful the lantern festival is.

He reads poetry and books but is not favored by his father and queen mother, he is beautiful but can not be seen by anyone, he is a lonely boat in the storm and walks alone, how lonely and lonely it is.

He didn't understand why his father and queen mother didn't love him because he was so well-behaved and intelligent, he just thought it was because he had a pair of heterochromatic eyes, and the truth was cruel and couldn't let him know.

The Great Wizard thought that he had long lost his heart and could live freely and carelessly to the point of not caring about anyone's feelings, but Mu Jian became a thorn in his heart, and his miserable life was arranged by himself.

Mu's golden eyes were eclipsed, his body leaned softly against the screen, and the corner of his mouth was just a wry smile, "I'm not going." Rather than burning hope and then destroying it, it is better not to let me see the light from the beginning. ”

His maturity and poise are heart-wrenching.

"Are you satisfied with this little world for the rest of your life?" The Great Wizard asked, and a very dangerous thought came to his mind, and he couldn't help but think about it, and the rope he pulled came out first.

"It's not what I say."

"Why don't you go out with me to see the world, see how ambitious you are, and see if you want to have this prosperous world."

Mu Jian smiled coldly, "Great wizard, my father will not pass on the throne to a blind man." ”

Sometimes the great wizard just likes the simple and simple nature of the young man, and the clothes on his body are really heavy, the great wizard slowly got up and took two steps forward, bent down and touched Mu Jian's little head, "He doesn't give it, you won't do it yourself?" ”
