The night tonight is not bright, except for a cool moon, there is no light source in the entire courtyard, but this can't affect the eyesight of Zhufeng, who has been practicing martial arts all year round, and it can't affect Nie Yan's sight.

Just staring at it, Nie Yan found that Zhu Feng's hand was holding a piece of wood that had been carved with some outlines, he seemed to be carving a person, and the box contained four wood carvings that had been completed, and then looked closely, the wood carvings were vivid and vivid, wasn't that what the four younger siblings looked like when they were young? Even the snot that he used to run through when he was a child was carved.

Seeing this, the corners of Nie Yan's mouth couldn't help but raise slightly, and that period of poverty and warmth came to mind again.

At this time, Zhu Feng seemed to be a little tired, and gently put down the carving in his hand, isn't the carving exactly what he looks like?

"Big brother, if you see this gift, will you complain that I am the only one who lacks the eldest sister? I don't dare, I'm afraid you'll be sad. While speaking, Zhu Feng lay lightly on the roof, it was hard to imagine that the lively snot baby back then would be like this now, a little thin, a little pale, and a wisp of gloom between his eyebrows.

After all, he is the leader of the Ministry of Darkness, and it is not surprising that his temperament has changed drastically, but he is so careful, it seems that the warmth in his heart has never disappeared, and it is even stronger than back then.

After being silent for a long time, Zhu Feng picked up the carving that was in the shape of Nie Yan in his hand, and said to himself: "Big brother, I don't know why, I always feel that you are back?" It's a pity that this gift I want to give you has never been completed, and I can't sleep well tonight, and I always want to finish it. Unfortunately, I am clumsy, and I don't know if I can finish it before dawn. ”

After speaking, Zhu Feng smiled a little self-deprecatingly, and continued: "In my heart, I always want you and the eldest sister to be together, if you receive this gift and dislike not having the eldest sister, then I will carve a pair of your own dolls for you and the eldest sister alone, okay?" ”

It is hard to imagine that in this Nie family compound, the most mysterious and cold-blooded leader of the Dark Division, would have such childish words, Nie Yan heard it with tears in his eyes, but suddenly heard the bamboo wind put down the carving, and said to himself again: "Big brother, do you know why I sit on this roof and carve things?" As I said before, I always feel like you're coming back tonight, and I'm sitting on the roof, will I be the first to see you come back? I used to sit like this, because I could see far away, but I didn't know if I could see you from afar? ”

Hearing this, Nie Yan's smile stiffened on his face, and the tears that had been suppressed for a long time finally rolled down, when they met, Zhu Feng was the smallest, and he was the most dependent on himself and Wanwan, in his heart, it was not an exaggeration that he and Wanwan were her parents.

It's been almost twenty years since Wanwan left them, and he can't remember how long it has been since he disappeared, maybe four or five years, how bitter should Zhufeng be in his heart? Besides, he was always alone and didn't have a home of his own.

No matter how distressed he was, Nie Yan couldn't step forward to comfort him, and if there was a sense of peeping, it was like a sharp sword hanging in Nie Yan's heart, so that he didn't dare to express any of his feelings.

In the silence of the long night, Nie Yan finally jumped off the roof softly and walked towards the courtyard where he once lived.

In the dark, Nie Yan cleaned up his house, just like sorting out the relics for his younger siblings, but what was worth keeping? Except for his people.

In the hearts of his younger siblings, he probably thought so, thinking like this, Nie Yan couldn't help but sharpen his ink and pen in the dark, and wanted to leave a letter, but when he picked up the pen, he clearly had a thousand words but couldn't say it. In the end, only six names were written on the paper, and a sentence was added, in my lifetime, I was fortunate to meet and I was grateful.

After writing this sentence, Nie Yan put down the brush in his hand, and a thousand words had been expressed, and it was time to leave.

When he walked out of the Nie family's mansion, the changeable autumn night finally began to drizzle, and the moon that was not bright before had already disappeared.

The Nie family's mansion is already in an inaccessible place in the suburbs, and there is a mountain forest outside the door, and it is even more uninhabited at this time.

Nie Yan's footsteps resounded in the empty mountain forest, and the roar of the beast made his figure even more lonely.

When climbing a hillside, Nie Yan suddenly felt something in his heart, stopped, looked back, and saw most of the Nie family, but he couldn't see which place was the courtyard where the younger siblings lived, but in front of the gate of the Nie family, the vigorous and powerful and huge words 'Nie House' were deeply imprinted in Nie Yan's eyes.

Clearly, I don't feel any clear danger, but why do you feel that this parting is like a permanent secret? Nie Yan was in a trance, the scenery in front of him was shattered one by one, but it became the broken city wall back then, and four thin children looked at him from behind the city wall, one of them was holding a runny doll, and the other two were holding slingshots...

"It's been more than 20 years, why do I still feel like it happened yesterday?" Nie Yan's voice was a little puzzled, but he reached out to wipe the last tear from the corner of his eyes, turned around and walked forward without looking back, and his figure finally completely disappeared into the mountain forest.

When will you return? Or could he no longer ride the old yellow horse on his own again, and come back like this?

Thinking of this, Nie Yan couldn't help but shake his head slightly, speaking of which, he hadn't traveled on that yellow huss for many years, but in Nie Mansion, it should have a good old age, don't worry about it, right?

Looking down and pondering, a figure like a calf suddenly came out of the mountains and forests and gently bit Nie Yan's sleeve.

How agile was Nie Yan's reaction? After a moment's pause, he didn't react, allowing the figure to bite his sleeve.

"It seems that I walked in the courtyard, hiding from the sky, from the earth, from everyone, but not from a second fool. Why did you come along? As he spoke, Nie Yan's hand gently rested on the second fool's head.

This is the puppy he picked up back back then, and now, strictly speaking, it is a complete fierce beast, and I don't know how many times I have parted with it? But not once like this time, it actually chased it out.

No matter how smart the second fool is, he can't speak, and in the face of Nie Yan's inquiry, he can only shake his head and tail and lick Nie Yan flatteringly, but he can't make any words, but in this flattery, the second fool seems to be a little sad, and he whimpers from time to time, as if he is crying.

As the saying goes, cats and dogs are always the most sensitive to people's life and death, but Nie Yan probably knows that it is just that cats can see people's souls leave their bodies, and dogs can smell the breath of souls.

What's the matter with the dog demon in the beast? In this way, you have to chase it out and follow yourself, can you still smell the death gas on your body?

Nie Yan didn't know why such an ominous thought appeared in his heart, but he couldn't get rid of it, in the rainy night, the second fool kept licking Nie Yan's hand, and sometimes gently biting Nie Yan's trouser legs, looking up with a begging look in his eyes, it was so smart, and it was all about the determination to follow Nie Yan along the way.

Nie Yan naturally understood in his heart that after so many years in the Nie family's mansion, from beginning to end, the second fool only regarded himself who saved it and took it away as the only owner, and this time he was even more iron-hearted, thinking of this, Nie Yan patted the second fool's head lightly again, sighed and said: "It's okay, a person is always a little lonely, you just accompany me all the way." ”

Nie Yan disappeared from the Nie family's mansion from then on, and at the same time, there was also a dog called Er Silly.

No matter how bleak autumn is, it will always pass, and the pace of winter will never be slow, always as promised.

Chang'an, as the capital of the Tang Dynasty, has experienced so many years of war, even if it is still prosperous, it is no longer at the peak of the year.

A low mountain in the suburbs of Chang'an, perennial literati and ink writers often climb the mountain as endowment, and also had tourists weaving, to this day, this early winter is inaccessible, only because this early winter is too cold, it can be worthy of winter, it has been two heavy snows in a row, even today's second heavy snow has not stopped.

The whole low mountain has long been snow-white, from here you can see Chang'an, the former capital, has long been covered in silver, plus the continuous falling snowflakes, there is a sense of vicissitudes of the world.

On the top of this low mountain, there is a pavilion, which used to be the best place for visitors to come here to climb high and look far away, because sitting in this pavilion, you can see most of Chang'an.

Therefore, this huge pavilion is always crowded with people in groups of three or five on weekdays, but today, it seems empty and lonely, only a slender figure wearing a white robe and a strange black fur sits in it.

He seemed to be in good spirits, and was well prepared in the gazebo.

A small table, two stools, and a hedgeh, on which wine was warm.

On the small table were melons and fruits that are rare in winter, as well as two side dishes. If it is early spring, sitting in this gazebo, enjoying the scenery with warm wine, and pouring yourself a drink, it is also elegant and tasteful, but in this bitter winter, who will sit here and not feel cold?

But this white-robed man seems to be not afraid of the cold at all, just patiently pour himself a drink, look carefully, his face is beautiful, elegant posture, but look more closely, the corners of the sharp eyes also have shallow traces, a wisp of beard on the lips looks a little vicissitudes, it is difficult to imagine how amazing and outstanding this person's appearance was when he was a teenager.

He seemed to be waiting for someone, but in such bitter cold weather, would the person he was waiting for arrive?

At this time, at the foot of the mountain, in the plain white, there were really two black dots walking towards the top of the mountain, the speed seemed to be slow, but in a blink of an eye, you would find that they had traveled a long way.

Is this the person the man in the white robe is waiting for?
