Chapter 14: The Past of Youth

(a)

The rainy season in the middle of summer always comes so unexpectedly. Since that night, this long rootless water has been raining for three whole days, and the green mountains are shrouded in rain and mist, and the water drops to the sky and falls, like a hazy rain curtain.

The clouds and mist surround the bamboo sea, just like a fairyland, the lake reflects a man in scarlet clothes sitting by the pavilion, and the rain flows along the eaves of the pavilion into a string of water curtains and falls into the lake, causing ripples. The man looked into the distance with some sorrow, letting the falling rain soak half of his body.

One tall and one short on the edge of the eaves of the medicine house, facing the lake pavilion. Bai Hua drank the medicine and handed it to the person next to him, took another bite of the fruit, smacked his mouth, and continued to look at the Huxin Pavilion. Ze Huang took the bowl, glanced at the people in the pavilion, then shook his head, and turned around with a sigh and entered the medicine house.

There was a thunderstorm in the sky, and the people sitting in the pavilion shook their bodies with the thunder and fell into the lake, Bai Hua was so surprised that he vomited the flesh in his mouth, and hurriedly turned around and shouted at Zehuang: "Jump, jump, jump into the lake." ”

With that, he threw away the fruit in his hand and prepared to run towards the lake. Just walked together, only to feel the neckline behind the tight, and was carried back again.

Bai Hua turned his head to look at Ze Huang in a bit of a daze, and pointed to the lake: "He jumped into the lake, I'm going to save him, what are you pulling me to do?"

Ze Huang glanced at Bai Hua a little helplessly, then looked at the half-eaten fruit on the ground, let go of her with his hand, and took the fruit from the side and handed it to Bai Hua.

"He is a god, even if he falls into the water, he will get up, why are you in a hurry?"

Bai Hua took the fruit, suddenly realized, and then turned to look at the pavilion in the lake. One of them held on to the door beam, how could the person who had fallen into the lake just now sit there in a good manner?! Bai Hua stood still, wiped the fruit in his hand, and nodded approvingly. Sure enough, he didn't need anyone else to help.

The rain became heavier and louder, and there was no intention of stopping. The bamboo leaves washed by the rain rattled as if they were being baptized one after another. The people in the pavilion changed their postures and continued to mourn.

Bai Hua watched by the door for a long time, and looked up at the pouring rain with some puzzlement.

"Zehuang, he seems to have stayed there for two or three days, think about it carefully, it should have started to rain that night, and the next morning, I got up and saw him sitting there. Seeing that he is in such a low mood, isn't it raining that he is in a bad mood?"

After speaking, he took a bite of the fruit, and his eyes lit up, this fruit was much sweeter than the one just now. Bai Hua chewed the flesh and cast an approving look sideways to the people behind him.

Ze Huang tinkered with the herbs, and he didn't look up when he spoke. "Every year when the rainy season arrives in June, he is like this, he is good to get used to it, as you said, he is fine again when the rain stops. ”

Curiosity was instantly aroused, Bai Hua threw away the kernel, rubbed his hands on his clothes casually, and trotted to Ze Huang's side.

"Tell me about it. The former was full of gossip, and the latter had a smile in his eyes, and then gave a look.

Bai Hua pondered the eyes handed out by Ze Huang, looked to the side, and pointed with his finger again, Ze Huang nodded his head. Bai Hua grabbed a handful of herbs that couldn't be named and put them on the table, Ze Huang picked up some and threw them into the medicine cup, just didn't pound them twice and stopped the movements in his hand, looked at Bai Hua with some confusion and asked: "Xiaobai, have you recovered your memory? It stands to reason that your body has almost recovered.. It's the body that hurts, not the head, and this amnesia has been seven or eight days, isn't the dosage of herbs wrong?"

Bai Hua's heart trembled, turned around and grabbed another handful of herbs and handed them to Ze Huang.

"I remember a little, but I always feel that it is fragmentary, so I didn't tell you, in fact, I will try very hard to remember every day before going to bed. ”

Ze Huang nodded thoughtfully and continued to pound the herbs.

"It's best not to remember before going to bed, and to think hard in the morning. ”

"Aren't you going to tell me about Chiyan, tell me about it..."

Bai Hua immediately changed the topic. Ze Huang patted the herbs on his hands, stood up straight, and gestured with his eyes again. Bai Hua followed his eyes and saw the teacup on the table, bit his lip and rolled his eyes and stepped forward to pour two cups of tea.

Ze Huang nodded approvingly, took a sip, and felt that he had almost whetted his appetite, so he put down the teacup and said quietly: "Actually, Chi Yan used to like a fire realm woman..."

Ze Huang paused, Bai Hua leaned closer again, and asked seriously, "Then what?"

"Dead. ”

"And then?"

"It's gone. ”

"Gone?"

Ze Huang leisurely crossed Erlang's legs, but his face was serious, looking at Bai Hua, who was a little stunned, and the smile on his mouth was deeper. It wasn't until the stunned person's fists clenched and he was about to raise his hand that Ze Huang felt that it was not too kind to laugh in front of him, so he turned his face sideways and continued to laugh. Bai Hua felt like he had been tricked, there were cold stars in his eyes, and the strength of his fists made his joints gurgle, and finally squeezed out four words from between his teeth:

"You dare to trick me!!"

This person who was serving tea and pouring water just now to listen to the story, but now he was gritted his teeth and his eyes were full of anger, Ze Huang finally couldn't help laughing. After laughing for a while, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and continued: "Haha, I, I remember." ”

Bai Hua glared at Ze Huang, although he didn't believe it, he still let go of his fist and chose a comfortable position to sit down. Ze Huang looked at the rain outside the window and seemed to start recalling.

"At that time, we created the Four Realms, and at the beginning, many of the creatures that bred in the Four Realms were born naturally from the interweaving of the four seasons, some of them were fierce, some of them were timid, and they were not as peaceful as they are now. The situation of chaos in all walks of life can be imagined, and the apostles with spiritual power such as us cannot be quelled. Of the eight of us, four of us went to garrison all walks of life, and Chi Yan was in charge of guarding the Fire Realm at that time, and he was guarding it for one hundred and fifty years. ”

Bai Hua swallowed the tea and nodded. At first, the Four Realms were chaotic for decades, so at that time, I hid in the Water Realm, at least there was a little more harmony.

Retracting his thoughts, Bai Hua pointed to the people in the pavilion in the distance, and said, "Isn't there too much of the opening you talked about earlier, can you go directly to the point?"

The most important beginning of this story is attractive, why doesn't this Xiaobai understand? Ze Huang sighed and jumped directly to the point: "This woman's name is Spruce, and at that time she was specifically responsible for taking care of Chi Yan's daily life, Chi Yan was originally a casual person, but because he couldn't withstand those enthusiastic Fire Realm people, he kept her by his side by default. In fact, this spruce, in addition to its softer appearance, this temperament... It's as reckless as somebody..."

Ze Huang glanced at Bai Hua with slanted eyes, took a sip of tea, and handed her the empty cup, Bai Hua hurriedly refilled the cup and handed it to him.

"At first, I knocked over a few tea bowls and fed a few Chi Yan's beloved kingfishers, and then I accidentally burned all the places where Chi Yan lived..."

"Is that going to work? ”

Bai Hua was quite surprised to sketch the appearance of this woman in his mind. Ze Huang continued unhurriedly: "It was only because of that fire that their story progressed. That day, Chiyan came back late from patrolling the enchantment, and wanted to go back to the room quietly, but unexpectedly, the courtyard where he lived was a sea of fire, and everyone was busy putting out the fire, but he didn't see the spruce, Chiyan searched around and didn't find it, and in the end he took the dying man out of his room. “

Bai Hua carried the pot, and when the speaker finished drinking, he refilled the tea, "You continue." “

When Chi Yan carefully examined the injury, he realized that the black spruce was holding in his hand was actually the Danqing he had painted a few days ago. Chi Yan suddenly remembered the love he had shown for the Dan Qing when he finished painting, and the spruce was standing behind Chi Yan at that time. As for what the cause of the fire is, no one cares, but I know that this woman rushed in for the sake of a pair of danqing, regardless of life and death. Later, the two of them were together according to common sense, but the ending was bleak. At least it was a big blow to Chi Yan. ”

"The end?, the woman died of illness?"

"No, the woman is dying, and in this rainy season in June, Chi Yan took her hand and accompanied her on her last journey. Chiyan is also a god, and she is just an ordinary clansman. ”

"I can't see that he's still an infatuated species. ”

It is true that one is slowly getting older, the other is watching her grow old, and the only thing that has not become only love. ”

Bai Hua shook his head regretfully, looked at the infatuated man in the lake pavilion again, and then got up and walked out.

"Xiaobai, it's raining so hard, where are you going?"

Bai Hua turned around and touched the tip of his nose, grinned and said:

"I'm going to catch a few fish and come back, and while it's okay if you don't eat, I think it's better to eat something when you're sad, at least to divert your attention. ”

After saying that, he put his hands on his head and disappeared into the rain. Ze Huang put down the teacup, walked to the medicine cup and continued to pound the medicine.

"If he can eat, you can do it. ”

Fire Realm

The rootless water in the sky has been falling non-stop, and a man in a dark ink brocade coat in the octagonal watchtower on the wall of the fire world stands facing the outside of the city, as if looking at the rain and misty mountains in the distance.

A white-robed envoy bowed down and stood behind the man, and said, "Netherworld Heavenly God, the embroidery chief of the weaving royal workshop has come to report, and it will be ready to be made in time. I think this rain will not stop for a short time, you have just come back from the Fire Cliff, it is better to rest for a few days, and wait for the rain to stop before leaving. ”

"It's okay, I'll leave tomorrow. ”

"Then I'll send someone to bring it later. ”

The white-robed messenger shook his body respectfully and exited the watchtower. It was pouring rain, and on the huge city tower, only one person was left in the netherworld.

"Ten days, it's here!"
