We shuttled through the world of blue bricks and white walls, stepped on the mossy bluestone slabs, and breathed the warm breeze blowing from Erhai Lake, like walking into a labyrinth with endless exits.

Most of China's ancient cities will be influenced by the Central Plains city building norms of "nine miles in the square, three gates in the side, nine longitudes and nine latitudes in the country, and nine tracks along the way" in the "Zhou Li". However, Lijiang is diametrically opposed, with no regular road network and no strict city walls in the city, and the layout of the ancient city is connected by three mountains and one river; The water system uses the three rivers to pass through the city and flow from house to house; The street layout meridians are set up in a curved, secluded, narrow and reachable style. Therefore, the old town of Lijiang is a spontaneous and scattered pattern, and this style is destined to be lost in it as unprepared people.

Looking at one after another winding stone bridges running through the waterway, looking at the rows of cascading roofs, looking at the earth and stone walls reflecting the glory of the years, the eyes unconsciously become trance, this is a multi-ethnic integration of the city, flowing with the blood of the Central Plains architecture and Tibetan and Bai architecture, as well as Buyi architecture, its name itself is very vague.

But Xiao Yin's appearance was very satisfied, because this was the city he saw in his dream, and in his words, it was exactly the same.

He then pulled out a sketchbook from his backpack, on which he drew the intentions of his dreams, he was not a professional painter, and he was not familiar with even the most basic theory of perspective, so the drawings in this sketchbook looked like kindergarten graffiti. I couldn't read it at all, the horror was just in his brain.

He dragged me back and forth through the city, and when he saw people, he would point to the portraits in his sketchbook and ask them, from the aunt of the breakfast shop to the owner of the bookstore, he wanted to know from these people where the valley in his dreams was, where the bamboo buildings were? Unfortunately, we didn't get any useful information after a day, because his voice was deep and indistinct, and the intention in the dream was too general, and the location of orchids and bamboo buildings was too common in Yunnan.

At this time, I knew why Xiao Yin had to find a companion to come to Yunnan together, because he needed to communicate with people to get clues and information, and he himself became very obscure when communicating with people because of his closed heart all the year round, and many people listened to his words and were reluctant to say more to him, and he called me more to ask me instead of him. Naturally, I wanted to help him, but because I really didn't know what the image in his mind was like, I still didn't make any progress.

The night gradually darkened, and Lijiang also changed to a different appearance, she put away her dignified and reserved appearance during the day, gently took off her coat, and became enchanting and charming.

I don't know who has ever said that Lijiang is the capital of sexual encounters, and many young men and women who pursue literature and art will gather here to do things that are still decadent in nature in a way that they think is elegant and romantic. It could be from a rogue host's book, or it could be from a movie that flaunts the temperament of a young man.

Today, seeing that this is indeed the case, Lijiang's bar street is really more prosperous than many first-tier metropolises, with bright lights and wine, and it is very noisy. That kind of bohemianism is compressed in an alley, and it looks particularly sultry.

I can understand why so many boys and girls choose this place for a date, and they will rely on this city to warm up their relationship with their other half, because this kind of restrained wildness is the most charming, under the light of blue bricks and gray tiles, mountains and Erhai Lake, people's desires will instinctively be more outgoing than in other places.

Xiao Yin looked at the neon streets and alleys, and suddenly whispered something to me. "Liu Quan, I invite you to a drink, thank you really this time."

I really shivered coldly, this kind of thing is normal in itself, but when it comes out of Xiao Yin's mouth, it feels weird.

"Drink...... Drink? "I have a subconscious in my heart that people like Xiao Yin don't like to drink, and he invites me to drink now, maybe just because he wants to thank my colleagues this time." yes, yes. ”

In fact, to be honest, I really want to have a good drink at this moment, because after a busy day, I should really take a good rest, I had a wish before, that is, to hold a wine glass and look at the moon shadow of Erhai Lake, and then reminisce about youth. Of course, this was just a once naïve Wenqing's longing at that time. In fact, I still have a deeper desire, because at that time I didn't know Yuge at all, and I didn't know Yuluo, I was a lonely commander of the light pole, no constraints, no burden, came to this "erotic city", and also fantasized that I could have a story before and under the moon, but everyone should know me better after reading other stories.

"Liu Quan, actually, I want to ask you to do something." Xiao Yin looked at me directly, his face was more stiff in the moonlight than the bluestone on the ground.

"Say, buddy, we're all here, just tell me if there's anything." I said this, but my heart was full of trepidation, who knows what outrageous demands this strange man will make.

"I want you to go to a bar and flirt with a woman...... Don't know if it's okay? ”

I almost squirted bile out of my chest, and I wondered if all these top students were so weird. "Dude, what did you say? Hitting on someone? ”

Xiao Yin also seemed to feel that it was a little inappropriate to say this, he frowned, and then straightened out his words again. "That's the case, I've always felt that my own attitude towards love is problematic? I want to see how you people communicate with women? ”

"This ...... Brother, this communication with women happens in daily life, you don't have to see me. I smiled awkwardly. And like you, I don't know much about amorous customs, you see that I will only be a negative textbook. ”

"I don't want to see that kind of fake routine pick-up, I just want to see how an ordinary boy behaves at night in this ancient city." Xiao Yin said firmly.

"Dude, and the people in this place are generally looking for sexual encounters, not true feelings, if you want to find true feelings, you should go to a place like school."

"Nope! I don't want to see that kind of simple feelings, I just want to see what people's fast love looks like today! Xiao Yin's voice suddenly became several times louder, as if he was going to lose his temper with me, so that I was the second monk and couldn't figure it out, and the men and women pulling and pulling outside the bar street couldn't help but look at us at this moment.
