New Year's Day · III · Red City, a water town
Yanjiang City, the most famous water town fairyland in Kyushu, pavilions and buildings, the river runs through, countless beautiful buildings are built in this riverside water town, when it comes to the night, countless talented and beautiful people, boating on the river, the building lights, all night long, Yanjiang water town, full of flowers, drunk gold fans.
Countless talented and beautiful people linger in this water town, countless emigrants swim on the Yanjiang River, in the past few decades in Kyushu rare world road stability, Yanjiang City has become more and more prosperous, the riverside lights all night long, countless flower boats float on the river, the lanterns are embellished, which vaguely reveals the posture of the face, leading people to reverie.
At this time, it is the end of winter, even in the warm south, the whole Yanjiang City is covered with light snow, compared to the height of summer, the whole city is much more deserted, but even so, there is still no lack of lively scenes on the streets.
There was a sudden commotion on the spacious street, and several tall horses galloped past in the distance, causing pedestrians on the side of the road to quickly retreat and marvel at the same time.
That's the mark of the City Lord's Mansion, what can be worthy of such a stirring of the City Lord's Mansion?
Passers-by shook their heads and didn't know, but at this time, a middle-aged man riding in front of him was full of anxiety.
Even if he is the city lord of Yanjiang City.
is in charge of such a prosperous city, and naturally has a matching position of strength, and can make him so anxious, he doesn't even have time to change his clothes, and he rides a horse in his usual clothes, there is only one answer.
The Emperor of the Town is coming!
In 337, the first year of Kyushu, a news came out that shocked the entire Kyushu continent.
The God-Emperor is gone.
The entire Kyushu was instantly in a panic, and several forces that did not dare to act under the peerless force of the God Emperor were immediately ready to move, and after the initial action, everyone found out.
The God Emperor really didn't show up!
As a result, several forces jumped out of the water and began to plunder unscrupulously, spreading panic and war on Kyushu, which had been calm for thirty years, contradictions and interests were about to erupt, and huge sect families collided with each other!
Just when hundreds of ordinary people and mortals were eager for the appearance of the God Emperor, it was the Zhenyu King who stood up, and the Zhenyu King, who didn't know how to open the Yunshan Divine Palace, relied on the power left by the God Emperor to calm the turmoil in various places in one fell swoop.
In 347, the first year of Kyushu, the king of Zhenyu led several forces to suppress Youzong.
The world is peaceful again, although the God Emperor does not reappear, but the appearance of the Zhenyu King once again brought peace and stability to Kyushu.
Countless people regard him as the heir of the Divine Emperor and the new master of the Divine Palace.
The King of the Town has since become the King of the Town.
That's why the Yanjiang City Lord was so anxious to greet him, and he couldn't wait to break through the Martial King Realm at once and fly over directly!
Outside the city, a group of hundreds of iron horsemen is galloping towards the gate of Yanjiang City, bringing up smoke and dust all the way, led by two people, a young and handsome face, but showing a resolute and calm slightly behind, and the person riding in the front, purple dragon pattern shoulder armor, a majestic purple gold robe, the back of the wind lifted cloak, majestic and burly figure, resolute face, this elite master of all the iron horses of the Martial King Realm - Zhenyu Huang - Xuantian!
"Father, here we are. The young man said.
"Hmm. The man agreed, pulled the reins and stopped the horse, and the iron riders behind him also stopped in unison.
Then the city lord of Yanjiang, with a look of hurry, led several people to ride fast horses and drove out of the city gate, and the city lord of Yanjiang even had his hair scattered.
He hurriedly dismounted and stepped forward, saluting respectfully.
"The Emperor of the Town, the big man is coming, the villain is disrespectful, rude. ”
The man and the young man jumped off their horses and said calmly, "It's okay, it's a sudden visit, you don't have to be in such a hurry." ”
The city lord of Yanjiang instantly put his mind at ease, and said that the Zhenyu Emperor was fair and selfless, rigorous and generous, it seemed to be true, such a man who had already reigned at the apex of the entire Kyushu was so generous.
He breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Since the Zhenyu Emperor is here to visit, I will take you on a good tour of this Yanjiang City." ”
Immediately, leading the two to the city, the iron cavalry dispersed without stopping and stood outside the city.
As soon as you enter the city, the prosperous scenery is indeed as people say, Yanjiang is indeed the most prosperous place in Kyushu, whether it is the size of the city or the flow of people.
"Your Excellency the Emperor of the Town, why don't you go to the City Lord's Mansion to rest first, how about it? The Yanjiang City Lord proposed, and at the same time, he couldn't help but look at the Zhenyu Emperor, and looked at this king up close, which made people even more impressed.
"Well, that's fine. The man was about to turn around and walk forward with the young man when he caught a random glimpse of a man out of the corner of his eye.
Then he froze.
As if his mind had been taken away, he looked in the direction of the alley.
There......
There was a beggar.
His hair was a little messy, his clothes were in tatters, his feet were bare, his hands were tucked into his torn sleeves, and he was curled up, sleeping quietly in the early winter sun.
The man was stunned for a long time, his pupils gradually contracted, his lips slowly opened, and he moved wordlessly, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
The young man tugged at him from behind and whispered, "Father." ”
The man came back to his senses, and the city lord of Yanjiang hurriedly led the way, and the group walked towards the city lord's mansion.
The young man was amazed, and just now, his father's hand was clenched tightly, and his nails were pressed into the flesh, and blood flowed out.
......
"Your Excellency the Emperor of the Town, the room has been arranged, if you have anything, just call me directly. The city lord of Yanjiang said respectfully, and then retreated with interest.
Only the man and the young man were left in the palatial hall, the man's eyes were a little distracted, and the young man finally couldn't help but say to the man facing his back: "Father, what's wrong with you, that's just a lowly beggar....."
Syllable!
The young man tilted his head in disbelief, not understanding why the man suddenly slapped him, from childhood to adulthood, he was always aiming for his father, trying to do his best, and never disappointed his father, but his father was .....?
The man's resolute face flashed with obvious anger, and he slowly withdrew his hand: "Although you don't know and don't blame you, but you said the wrong thing!"
"The child knows his mistake and asks his father to forgive him. The young man immediately bowed his head and said with some understanding.
That beggar is some acquaintance of my father?
"Father, who is that man...", the young man asked cautiously, it was the first time he had seen his father lose his temper like this.
"That person," the man was in a violent trance, and then closed his eyes as if he couldn't believe it, "It's my eldest brother." ”
As if hearing something fantastical, the young man's eyes widened in horror, and he couldn't believe what he had heard.
Father's big brother?
Isn't that ...... Be.....
The world doesn't know, but he still knows what happened when his father was on a rampage, and his father who has won many battles actually has a big brother behind him, with white clothes fluttering, few people know that when he was born, that person came once.
And that person is more familiar with his other identity-
God-Emperor.
"Father, you.... You.... Said...."The young man said in a trembling voice, that is the God Emperor, if there is another person who can make him worship more than his father, it is the God Emperor who has been deified by the world.
"There's no way I'm mistaken. The man opened his eyes with great complexity: "Yu'er, this is also the reason why I hit you for the first time! I don't allow anyone to insult my eldest brother!"
"The child understood. The young man nodded silently.
He knew very well that the person who admired the Emperor the most and was even willing to die for him was his father.
"Beggar?" said the man, turning his back to the young man, "You may not know that I was a beggar in the first place. ”
The young man suddenly studied, beggar? Father was once a beggar? This is impossible!
He looked at the man in disbelief, hoping for a negative answer.
The man looked at him and laughed, "What's the matter? ”
"That's about sixty years, isn't it?" the man's eyes were a little confused, and he remembered something: "At that time, I was just a teenager, begging for food in a city all day and turning over other people's leftovers to survive. ”
The young man could only be silent, he never thought that his magnificent father would have such an experience.
"I thought I'd just go on like this, and then starve to death in an unknown winter. The man said softly, as if the memory was just yesterday: "Once, I was lucky enough to find a lot to eat, and when I was about to hide, I found that there was another beggar in the place where I slept, also in his teens, and he should not be much older than me." ”
The young man's expression gradually became startled, and he vaguely guessed the identity of the person.
He was looking at the sky like that, not knowing what he was thinking, and then the sound of hunger in his stomach brought him back to his senses. The man smiled, as if it was a very good memory: "Maybe it was out of sympathy or something else, looking at this man who was not much older than myself, I gave him some extra food." ”
The man stopped suddenly, slowly chasing his memory back to that early winter day, a corner of the city, and handed a steamed bun to the man.
"Give!"
The man seemed to look at himself with some surprise for a long time, and then lowered his head and seemed to smile bitterly, which was difficult to understand.
"You don't have enough to eat yourself, why did you give it to me?" his eyes seemed to be looking for something, longing for some answer.
"If I can't eat, I won't care about you, but if I can eat enough, I can help you. At that time, he took out another steamed bun and munched on it.
"Can you help if you can?" he muttered to himself, looking at the somewhat dirty steamed bun in his hand.
In the end, he laughed, tears flowed out, and he also chewed the steamed bun in a big gulp, and asked himself with a smile:
"I ask you, do you have any ....."
The man suddenly came back to his senses, looked at the young man and said, "Maybe it's the return gift of that steamed bun, and he asked me if I had any wishes." ”
The young man listened nervously, as if the fog was about to lift.
"I said casually at the time that I wanted to be one of those big people who stood up to the sky, and I didn't want to be a beggar in this small city for the rest of my life. The man recalled his answer.
"Then he said I'll take you out and become a big man who stands up to the sky, would you like to?" I thought it was a joke at the time, and said casually, if you can do it, I'll call you big brother no problem!" The man's eyes flashed with an indescribable light, which seemed to be yearning, as if worship.
The young man swallowed, as if he was listening to the Arabian Nights, he had read many rumors since he was a child, but none of them could compare to this, because the person in the story, his father was by his side, standing at the apex of Kyushu!
"Later, you may have guessed, he really took me out of that small town, taught me literacy, took me everywhere, he seemed to know everything, seemed to be able to guess everything in advance, it seemed that any martial arts exercises could not stop him, he taught me how to behave in the world, taught me the history of the rivers and lakes, taught me martial arts exercises, and even taught me some tricks and ghost strategies. The man said slowly.
"Then I willingly called him big brother, and traveled around with him, dealing with all kinds of people, at first my eldest brother took me, and then he asked me to try it with what he taught me, I don't know how many times I was deceived, how many times I was in a desperate situation, and every time it was the eldest brother who wore white clothes to save me at the last moment, and the enemy was leveled lightly. ”
"Big brother always likes to hide behind his back, so most people only know that there was a talented Xuantian at that time, oh, by the way, the name Xuantian was given to me by the eldest brother who took me out of that small city, and he said that if he was angry, he could go straight to the nine heavens. ”
The young man listened silently to all the past, the deepest memories that his father hid in his heart.
"But at that time, some people knew about the existence of the eldest brother, such as the Snow Dust Fairy back then, who had been chasing the figure of the eldest brother. The man smiled silently, as if he was a little regretful.
The young man was stunned, and the head of the largest sect in the north, Ying Xuechen, the name of the first beauty in Kyushu, was really like thunder.
"The more I cultivate, the more I find that the gap between me and my eldest brother is getting bigger and bigger, but it doesn't matter, I plan to chase the figure of the eldest brother in this life, and when I become a person like the eldest brother, I will definitely be a big man who stands up to the sky. The man smiled as if he had felt his former self.
"However, now that I have become the first person in Kyushu, a big man who stands up to the sky, I still haven't caught up with my eldest brother. The man said with a distant look in his eyes.
"Later, I became the king of the town, and the eldest brother found a seclusion in the mountains, I thought it would be okay to do this, when I got tired of it, I also built a thatched hut on the edge of the eldest brother's thatched hut and lived with your mother, at that time you didn't make a sound, I thought so, it seems that it is not bad for four people to live in seclusion in the deep mountains. ”
Mother, father, who is that person, and who is the other person!?
"But before I could realize it, the person who was like a child to my eldest brother, like a relative, died. The man closed his eyes and frowned, as if he didn't want to remember.
The young man opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound, he didn't know what to say at this time.
"That's it, after telling you this, I finally have the courage to meet my eldest brother. ”
As if he had figured something out, the man's figure flashed and disappeared from the hall.
The young man is left alone to savor the story hidden behind the brilliance of the two men.
.......
.......
In the alley near the city walls, where the sun was sinking and blocked by the houses, the figure of a nap was finally awakened by the cold wind, and he rubbed against each other and froze his feet, and stretched his hands out in the tattered sleeves of his coat, as if that would make it warmer.
He suddenly felt something, and looked towards the entrance of the alley, where a figure with a dark purple cloak and a tall body seemed to block out a lot of the cold wind.
The man seemed to have been standing there for a long time.
As if he couldn't hold back the emotions in his heart anymore, the man looked at his extremely poignant scene at the moment, and finally spoke with an inexpressible emotion in a sentimental and trembling voice:
"Big brother!"
No one knows how much emotion a call contains, and there are only two people in the alley at the moment.
He blinked his eyes, and it took a while to come back to his senses, looked at the man, and smiled, it was the old man he hadn't seen for a long time:
"Long time no see, Xuantian. ”
The man had actually arrived a long time ago, but he couldn't bear to wake him up, but he suddenly reacted, he had been here for so long and there was no reason why the eldest brother didn't find out, could it....
He sensed the other's body, empty, nothing.
"Big brother, you... Could it be—" Xuan Tian said in disbelief.
"Ah, you said that my cultivation is good, but I think it's in the way, so I abolished it. He said nonchalantly, as if he had just lost something insignificant.
Xuan Tian opened his mouth, unable to answer, the only one in Kyushu who surpassed the strength of the Martial Emperor, just understated himself.
Sure enough, it's still the big brother I know, the big brother who can give up all external things.
Xuan Tian wanted to speak, wanting to ask him why he disappeared ten years ago, why he abolished his cultivation, and why he didn't tell himself where he was.
Ten years ago, in the Yunshan Shrine, the eldest brother who didn't say anything in the face of his own inquiries disappeared directly, and now ten years later, the eldest brother who everyone in Kyushu regards as a god is actually sleeping on the street like a beggar!?
He has countless feelings that he wants to vent, but looking at the indifferent smile of the other party, the faint joy of meeting the old people, but forgetting everything.
"Big brother, you.... Over the years... Are you alright?" the last thing came out was only such a dry greeting.
"Well, that's good, but it's a pity, I originally wanted to go back to that small city, but when I destroyed the Heavenly Demon Sect, that small city was destroyed by them. He shook his head, as if feeling a little sad that he would never go back.
"Big brother!" mentioned that back then, Xuan Tian could no longer hold back the surging emotions, he stepped forward and grabbed the other party's shoulder.
"Why?
Xuan Tian's eyes began to damp, looking at the desolate appearance of the person he admired the most at the moment, he was extremely sad, and shouted hoarsely in a low voice:
"Why did you disappear from Yunshan, why did you abolish your cultivation, why did you become a beggar again!?"
"Why is all this!?"
I couldn't hold back my tears anymore, Xuan Tian couldn't cry for a while, this resolute man couldn't help it after all, tears crossed his face, and his hoarse voice of tears finally whispered with great difficulty:
"If you are tired, big brother, you can tell me if you want to live in seclusion, if you don't want to take care of Kyushu anymore, big brother, you can put it down!"
"Why not... Tell... Me. ”
Why didn't he tell him all this, he used to be extremely expecting that one day the eldest brother God Emperor would be tired, and he wanted to open it, and he was with the Snow Dust Fairy, and he took his wife and son to live with the eldest brother.
That kind of expectation......
Faced with the mighty man's screams holding back tears, he patted the other party's shoulder.
"Big man, what are you crying about!"
He looked at this man who had been following him almost all the time from decades ago, from a boy who didn't know anything to a man who stood up to the sky, and a lot of things had really happened in the past few decades.
"Xuantian, do you remember how you answered me when I asked you?" he said softly.
Xuan Tian raised his head, closed his eyes, and the memory seemed to be vivid, as if it were the next day.
"Yes. ”
"At that time, you were still a hairy boy who didn't know anything," he smiled softly, "and then in return for the steamed bun you gave me, I felt that no matter what this young man said for a while, I would help him achieve it." ”
Xuan Tian looked at him, his face didn't seem to have changed much from before, and he said extremely confident words plainly, he would not forget that it was because of his temporary kindness that he changed his life.
"Actually, you always feel that I changed your life and changed the trajectory of your life," he looked at Xuan Tian, and then revealed with a light smile: "Actually, no, that steamed bun changed my life." ”
"At that time, I didn't believe in anything, I didn't believe that there was anything in this world that gave me the motivation to live. He looked back gently, looking at Xuantian with a blank face, he smiled softly, at that time, he was still immersed in the stars and moons on the phoenix platform in his previous life, the failure of the mechanism, the betrayal of relatives, looking up, the whole world was the enemy.
At the beginning of this life, I didn't have any motivation to live.
"But what changed me at that time was the steamed bun you gave me, and I looked at the sky and thought to myself, sure enough, no one really did anything to me, just like I was going to starve to death at this moment. He said slowly, telling the other side of the story.
"But sometimes the world is so wonderful, it's so coincidental, just when I think so, you give me a steamed bun. ”
"Xuantian, you may not know, you have always felt that you owe me, I saved you, but in fact, in this life, the person who saved me from despair and discouragement is you. He looked at the man in front of him and smiled with great joy.
"You made me believe again that there are still many things in the world that are worth touching and people that are worth met. ”
"If I can't eat enough, I won't care about you, but if I can eat enough, I can help if I can, your words made me understand a lot at once. He still chuckled.
"Big brother, you still remember. Xuantian's trembling body said.
"Well, I remember, I remember, back then, I took you around on an adventure, you didn't know anything about the world at the time, you were always fooled by Xuechen to bring her to me, and then you were always deceived, and when you learned martial arts, you occasionally didn't open your mind, so I walked out of that small city with you, and then I met a lot of people, a lot of things. He smiled.
Well, and the young man who called himself master since he was a child.
"I'm not that God Emperor anymore, what Kyushu needs now is you, the Emperor of the Zhenyu Domain. ”
He said softly, and then smiled lightly in a congratulatory tone:
"Xuantian, you have done it, you have fulfilled your wish to become a big man who stands up to the sky. ”
"So you just gave me the position of the God Emperor, and then changed back to the original way again?Don't want anything?" Xuan Tian couldn't bear to close his eyes, big brother, my wish has been granted, so you are going to disappear?
Hearing Xuan Tian's words, he smiled faintly, did not answer, looked up at the sky and looked at the sky with slightly snowy snow in early winter, and suddenly reacted to today's day.
"Xuantian, can you fulfill my wish this time?"
"Big brother, as long as you want to see, I will achieve it even if I work hard. ”
......
......
In the City Lord's Mansion, a purple thunderbolt flashed, Xuantian's figure appeared, and the young man hurriedly greeted him.
"Father?"
"Call the lord of the city to me. ”
After a while, the Yanjiang City Lord hurriedly came and walked into the hall, but it didn't take a moment for the Yanjiang City Lord to come out more urgently, and immediately called his henchmen.
"Quick! Go and inform the various chambers of commerce immediately, the people of the family will come to see me! The sooner the better! And announce that the Emperor of the Town Domain will come to our Yanjiang City today and be exempted from paying taxes for one year! Everyone will stop working from now on and prepare for a celebration for me!"
"Declare to everyone that today is the biggest festival in Kyushu set by the Emperor of the Town!!"
"I want to see the most lively and prosperous scene in the whole Yanjiang City before nightfall, full of red brocade decorations!"
"And find me some of the best maids to follow Xuanyu Gongzi to meet someone!
"Hurry, the sooner, the better!"
The city lord of Yanjiang almost roared and issued a series of orders, and then hurried to meet with various families and chambers of commerce, if you want to reach the red makeup of the city before nightfall, you must need the power of those family chambers of commerce.
In the hall, Xuanyu looked at his father puzzled: "Father, ...... are you?"
"You don't have to worry about anything, go and stay with the eldest brother, remember, if there is anyone who doesn't open his eyes..."
"The child understood. Xuan Yu replied, and then left the hall.
"Big brother. ”
......
Yanjiang City, the most prosperous city in Kyushu, the river runs through the city, and the Yanjiang River in winter should be getting more and more deserted, but one by one the news seems to ignite everyone's enthusiasm!
Exemption from conscription taxes, celebrations?
The major chambers of commerce and families have come up with all kinds of treasures, and those who are capable can get them?
What makes countless people yearn for the most, the emperor of the town is here?
One after another, the news that it was great news for everyone came one after another, and the entire Yanjiang River seemed to wake up suddenly, and the light snow drifting in the sky could not cool people's hearts at all, but added a little joy.
The awakened Yanjiang River suddenly radiated with astonishing vitality! Countless red silk brocades were taken out by the people and decorated on the pavilions and pavilions, the warm pavilions at the doors of the buildings and the carved balustrades and jade pillars were painted in warm red by the people, and there were countless shouts and shouts on the streets, and countless hawkers shouted from street to alley!
Like a little red ink dripping on the picture scroll called Yanjiang, the whole Yanjiang River was decorated in a warm red color in just one afternoon, like a red city, and an indescribable festive atmosphere peculiar to the festival slowly permeated.
Crackling!
The sound of firecrackers continued to sound, the smell of fireworks spread all at once, everyone's faces were filled with happy smiles, on the river, several flower boats that are usually difficult to see were also decorated with red silk, floating on the riverside, countless swaying and beautiful figures faintly in it.
At this time, in a pavilion, the maid with a beautiful face and a beautiful figure asked Xuanyu cautiously:
"Young Master Xuanyu, that man said he didn't need our service and drove us out. ”
"Well, I see, you guys go down. Xuan Yu commanded lightly, and a row of maids who were as beautiful as flowers retreated respectfully.
Xuan Yu was waiting for that person a little nervously, the person who was waiting for the legend was really the beggar he saw at the city gate?
When night fell, it was night outside the window, but the city was still bustling and noisy, the bathroom door suddenly opened, and a figure dressed in flowing white clothes stepped out leisurely.
Xuan Yu's eyes slowly widened, was this really the shabby and lowly figure at the city gate?
The white clothes printed with plain patterns are extremely elegant, and the beautifully embroidered white silk ribbon is tied around the waist, which is obviously just loose and casual wear, but it gives people an indescribable temperament, Xuanyu thinks that his appearance is also outstanding, but he has a feeling of shame in front of this person.
The man walked out casually, looked at Xuan Yu, and smiled: "The last time I saw you, you were just born. ”
"Xuan Yu has seen the Divine Emperor Pavilion...."Xuan Yu hurriedly turned pale and wanted to salute.
He casually supported him, shoulder-length black hair, and said with a chuckle: "According to the seniority, you should call me uncle." ”
Xuan Yu was stunned, and then said a little nervously:
"Uncle. ”
The man nodded, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled, seeming satisfied.
"Let's go. ”
"God...... Big.. Uncle, this dress. Xuanyu took out a brocade box, and a blood-red gauze was placed inside.
"Oh, the color is a good match for today. The man smiled, the coat made of blood silkworms, there should be only such a thing in this world, he grabbed it casually and wore it on his body, outside the white clothes, a layer of red gauze light cage, the sense of elegance faded, and was replaced by the temperament of a prodigal son of red dust.
"Let's go, take me well.... Look at the city. ”
The man said softly.
On the street of Yanjiang at the moment, the pavilions on both sides are all full of red makeup, people are a little crowded and noisy, suddenly the crowd disperses, a team of incomparably luxurious teams comes, pedestrians give way, and then look curiously, who is the person who dispatched such a big battle?
"Uncle, this is the bazaar, and all the big chambers of commerce are here. Xuanyu introduced carefully, and he was still nervous, and he calmed down inexplicably beside this man.
"Hmm. The man raised his head and looked at the exquisite pavilions on both sides, the crowd around him, the windmills on the hawker stalls, the pedestrians buying and selling, and the children looking at the sweets, showing the happy eyes of the festival.
"Xuanyu, do you have a sweetheart?" the man laughed and talked about the things that he always loved to care about as an elder.
Xuan Yu was embarrassed for a while, he didn't expect that this person, who was a legend before he was born, was so casual and friendly, and even cared about these things about him.
"I haven't paid attention to the children's private affairs. Xuanyu had no choice but to say truthfully.
Bang!
A firework shot out and exploded across the night sky.
The man looked up and looked at him quietly, and then said to him with a smile: "Your father is sometimes very rigid, you don't have to be like him, force yourself to be like him." ”
Xuan Yu opened his mouth and smiled bitterly, just a few words, he saw through himself, and then he also spoke, talking about himself slowly, like confiding in the elders, in front of this man, it seems that he can let go of his restraints and say all the suppressed words.
"At this age, you have done well enough, much better than your father used to be, he must not say anything, but he regards you as his pride. ”
Since he was a child, Xuanyu has also heard countless compliments, but he can be indifferent, but listening to this man's praise, he is still excited.
He began to talk about his childhood experience, in order not to disappoint his father, he worked hard, did not dare to relax, and his children's private affairs were not just thought, the man listened silently, and walked in the most prosperous area of the Yanjiang River.
Occasionally, the man would laugh and point out his mistakes, give him some advice, and by the way tell him about the stupid things his father had done, and the whole celebration seemed to have seen the man in the flowing white and red gauze clothes.
Against the backdrop of the red gauze, countless girls trembled and watched the man disappear into the crowd.
On a towering pavilion, Xuan Tian looked at the figure of the red veil in the street where the red lights were shining in the distance, and slowly spoke:
"Aren't you really going to see your big brother?"
And beside him, there was an incomparably beautiful woman, with a perfect face, beautiful eyes looked closely at the red figure in the distance, revealing a somewhat poignant smile:
"What can I say when I see him? Do you still want to pester him like a little girl back then? Now I am so satisfied to be able to look at him from such a distance. ”
Xuan Tian was silent for a while, speechless, silently looking at the figure in the distance, the figure who traveled in the red dust.
"Xuanyu, what is that?"
The man looked at an empty flower boat in the middle of the river, and the open-air hall directly responded to the night sky.
"It's a flower boat used in a singing dance concert, so there shouldn't be anyone at this time. Xuanyu replied.
"Take me up. The man said, and countless people on the riverside exclaimed, and a red yarn flew over the river with a glowing long sword and landed on the flower boat.
Xuan Yu dispersed the Xuan Li that controlled the long sword, and watched the man's red yarn fluttering on the unmanned flower boat, with some subtle premonitions, as if something was about to happen.
No matter what the young man thought, the man held the long sword and watched the red candle illuminate the empty cruise ship, and the lively red mortal world across the river seemed to be two worlds.
He silently looked at the world across the river, and his past life was slowly re-enacting in front of him.
Then, as if tired of the memories, the man shook his head and smiled, looked at the long sword in his hand, pulled it out casually, and danced.
"Resentment is born, and then start from the beginning, it is difficult to let go of the past. ”
He groaned softly, the blade of the sword danced like flowing water, the moonlight was rising, the stars were twinkling in the sky, and the earth was noisy, on this seemingly isolated ship, wearing a red light veil outside the white clothes, a figure danced with a cold sword light, and stumbled up!
"If you don't think about it, you can't forget it, can you look back and tell you to die?"
He held his sword high, facing the moonlight, singing words written on the fly, and dancing in the center of the flower boat with leisurely steps, and the red gauze was like a phantom of his sword dance.
"Eh, look, that person is so beautiful at the sword dance!" On the nearby cruise ship, the eldest lady of the unknown family exclaimed, and the surrounding girlfriends also looked at it.
"Really! That's handsome!"
"Get over!
The cruise ship approached, and the movement caused by it also attracted people from other cruise ships, looking at the fairy-like figure, many people were intoxicated for a while!
More and more people were attracted by the figure, the wanton and free sword dance, people gathered around the river, and some boarded the cruise ship to see the peerless sword dance.
The tip of the sword provoked a fire candle, flicked it at will, and lit the curtain, and the man kept dancing his long sword, picking up a candlestick, and the fire reflected his red clothes and the smiling face.
The flames were everywhere, like a stage covered with flames, and on that stage, only the man ignored the growing flames around him, the red veil fluttered, and the blade of the sword was still there.
"Uncle!" Xuan Yu looked at the growing fire, he was anxious, and just wanted to make a move, a hand stopped on his shoulder, and he looked back.
"Father?"
Xuanyu looked at his father looking straight at the burning boat, his eyes did not blink, as if he wanted to remember this scene forever.
In the flames, the man looked at the people by the river, saw the burly figure at a glance, stopped the sword dance, and waved his hand at him, which was regarded as a farewell.
Xuantian, I'm leaving, you have to be good by yourself.
Will you be able to die this time?
The end of the world may be waiting for me!
The man smiled with some satisfaction, and let the flames engulf him on the sinking pleasure boat.
"Big brother, you're good to go. Xuan Tian closed his eyes, not wanting tears to flow, Xuan Yu couldn't accept it and looked at the burning building boat.
That man, dead?
On top of a tall tower in the distance, the perfect woman turned around, and a string of tears fell on her beautiful face, leaving only the woman's voice floating in the vast night.
"You used to avoid me, avoid me, and now you finally use death to never see me again?"
"Wind Dye, I hate you!"

Hundreds of years later, when the later generations of Kyushu habitually celebrated this day of the year as the biggest festival to celebrate with lanterns, and named New Year's Day according to the name that has been handed down, people found the historic site "Kyushu Lu" from the ruins.
And turning the ancient page, the page that recorded this festival found the handwriting of the young emperor Xuanyu at the end, and only one sentence was handed down across hundreds of years.
"Even if the background is extremely small, but the splendor of that person's life, even death, chose to be in the flames of the red ship. ”
"Maybe on that night, the red city of the water town, the red clothes that seem to represent the red dust have been eternal. ”
Countless descendants have questioned, who is the person who can make the great young emperor sigh so much?
It's a pity that everything was submerged by time, buried in the Hongcheng Water Town that night, buried in that long and vast history.....
