Chen He left the old dog town, and the grass for the firefly still walked forward, and then stepped on a certain night sunk in the corner of the light, and stood on a black eaves with snow at the end of the town.

Then he carried the wine gourd towards the corner of the eaves, and it was not until he stood on the edge of the roof that he sat down and looked at this human town with a smile.

The large lake outside the town seems to be illuminated by lights that are not very far away, and the sea of flowers swaying in the wind in the distance.

On the street of the town, a young girl carrying a basket was walking towards this direction on the street.

Once upon a time, the basket was filled with a lot of fresh fruit.

And now it's some food.

For example, tofu, fish from the lake that people in the town near the lake bought from the town, and some cabbage that is stored for the winter.

The girl, who had no name like everyone else in the town, slowly walked to this place with a basket and looked up at the young man drinking on the eaves.

"Do you want to come together for the New Year?"

Such a human story does not evolve over a long period of time, but depends on the ideas of a certain teenager.

The girl may not have known what the New Year was before, but now she seems to have suddenly understood how to celebrate the New Year.

So I very earnestly invited this young man who seemed to have nowhere to go.

Cao Weiying shook his head with a smile and said, "No, you guys have a New Year, I'll just watch you celebrate the New Year." ”

The girl was probably a little puzzled and said, "Can you still watch us celebrate the New Year?" ”

Cao Wei Hotaru nodded, took a sip of wine, and said, "I have to take a good look at it to be able to determine if you are really going to celebrate the New Year." For example, I've found a problem right now, you need to have a name. ”

The girl carried a basket and tilted her head on the long street under the eaves, and said, "What do you need a name for?" ”

The grass chuckled softly and looked at the town with the lights on earth.

"Knowing your name, I can tell you Happy New Year."

The girl thought about it for a long time, but probably didn't think about it.

"Is it the New Year after tomorrow?"

"It's the New Year, and after tomorrow is the New Year."

"Okay, then I'll go back and think about it today."

Cao Weihotaru smiled and said, "Okay." ”

So the girl took the basket and left the town in the light of the night.

Cao Weiying is still sitting on the eaves, at the intersection of the snow on the eaves and the world under the eaves, drinking peach blossom brew, quietly watching the story of this world.

It's been a long time.

A teenager also came over.

It was the South Island with an umbrella and a fish.

Nandao found this place all the way, only to see the grass for fireflies sitting on the roof overlooking the town.

"What are you doing sitting on here?"

Kusa glanced at the boy, then at the fish in his hand.

"Look at how they celebrate the New Year, what are you doing with a fish?"

"I see." Nan Dao didn't say much, just raised the fish in his hand, and said with a smile: "Today we are fishing in the snow, this is Lu Xiaosan caught, although this kid is naughty, he has not forgotten you, let me bring you one, isn't it very moving." ”

Cao Wei Hotaru smiled softly and said, "As long as he doesn't call that dog Cao Wei Hotaru, I'm already very moved." ”

Nan Dao thought about Lu Xiaosan's little earth dog that he picked up from Heavenly Town, laughed softly, and then stepped on the roof, and the two sat on the edge of the roof together.

At night, the town was lit with many red lanterns, like red fires lit here and there were dots in some pitch-black charcoal, and then the fire slowly grew larger, until the long street in the lights turned into a red river.

And the town turned into the sea.

Nandao put the fish aside, one foot hung down under the eaves, one foot stepped on the ridge of the roof, sat under the umbrella with his hands and looked at the situation of the town, and said softly: "This should be their first New Year." ”

Grass nodded for Hotaru and said, "Yes, with the first time, there will be a second time." ”

Nandao watched quietly for a long time, and then said softly: "I don't know if this is my first New Year. ”

The grass drank wine for Hotaru and turned to look at the boy under the umbrella.

Nandao looked away.

"The town outside Nanyi City is gone."

Nandao said very calmly.

"I've been there for fifteen years, and then in April, I come back there and there's nothing—I'm supposed to have celebrated the New Year, but sometimes I'm not sure, and the town that represents memories of the past is like it never existed, and it inevitably makes people feel like there was nothing at all."

Minamijima chuckled softly, took his flask from his waist, and drank the peach blossom wine that he had drunk for many years in his memory.

"Sometimes I think, in fact, there is no Nanke Town, it's just that I was sitting on the riverside guardrail outside the Sword Sect of the Human World, and accidentally had a dream, and then I took the dream seriously very blankly - if someone has amnesia and wakes up and is dreaming, will they take the world in the dream as real, thinking that they are people who have strayed into this world without this world?"

Cao Weiying smiled and said: "The dream has never been the world, and it has not been many years in a thousand years. The matter of butterfly dreams has always been an unanswerable question. But yours is clearly not. ”

Nandao frowned and said, "Then how to answer?" ”

Cao Wei Hotaru tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "Look at the world." ”

Nandao looked at the town, but still didn't understand what it meant.

The grass is a firefly, so he said it more clearly.

"The chances of people having the same dream are very small."

Nandao then remembered a story from March a long time ago.

An empty flask.

- This is a wine jug that your father sent you, saying that you want to practice hard.

These are the original words that Yun Hu didn't know at the beginning.

The story is simple.

There was an old drunkard named Qing Xiang who went to the town and came back with a jug of wine, but he couldn't hold back and drank it himself, so he sent a jug of wine over.

Nandao's mind was like a thunderclap.

Yes.

The world is vast, the world is thousands, and the years are long.

But even in all the dimensions of time and space, the probability of people in the world having the same dream is still very small.

How could he be so coincidental that he happened to have the same dream as Qing Xiang?

Nandao looked at the world in a daze.

Yes, the town of Nanke does exist.

It's just that when Nandao figured it out, he fell silent again.

The thunder turned into a fine snow.

As a result, the originally quiet town began to slowly fall with fine snow, which made those warm lights pave a layer of hazy color.

Celebrate the New Year in the snowy world.

However, Nandao didn't have the heart to look at these things, just turned his head to look at the young man in green clothes beside him.

"So why did that town disappear in the first place?"

Cao Weiying just held the wine gourd in his hand, drank the wine in small sips, and said very calmly: "You are walking on the road to the twelfth floor, don't you understand?" ”

Nandao fell silent.

As if adding fuel to the fire, the grass patted Nandao's shoulder with a smile and said, "You did have a story about a small town, but now you are alone, boy." ”

It's just unexpected, but the young man sitting on the ridge of the town's fine snow roof didn't have any emotion, just broke free from the silence and quietly watched the wind and snow in the town.

It is the wind and snow of the town that is approaching the New Year, and the lights are full of noise and laughter.

"Yes."

Nandao said softly.

"Where has he gone?"

Cao Wei tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "Cut my heart and step on the gate of heaven?" I didn't pay attention to the story of the blacksmith in the East China Sea. ”

The world has not paid attention to it.

Probably only a white-clothed sword cultivator who used to sleep on his stomach on the stream bridge in the Sword Sect's garden knew something.

Nan Dao said slowly: "No wonder I always feel chaotic in my life. ”

It turns out that my father is actually the twelfth floor boss in the world?

Even people like Bai Fengyu back then just stopped before cutting my heart.

The devil knows what kind of existence that Tokai blacksmith is.

But the world has never heard of anything.

"But you're right, I'm really alone now in the sense of blood." The South Island is also very calm.

If you want to become an immortal, you must forget yourself, and my heart will not die, and there is no way.

The people on the twelfth floor, in the end, are naturally alone.

The night above the roof fell silent.

Something clicked down.

But it was the fish that Nandao had put aside before, and it was probably frozen by the sudden fine snow, and it staggered and fell.

The two are back in the story of the present.

"Do you grill fish?"

Nandao looked at the grass and said.

The grass thought for Hotaru and said, "I haven't roasted it for many years, I don't know if the roasted can still be eaten, won't you?" ”

Nandao said sincerely: "I won't, I'm a little waste in the world." ”

People in the world are always versatile, and teenagers have only learned to write neatly until now.

Grass laughed, jumped off the ridge, and bent down to pick up the grass carp with its mouth covered with rattan.

"It doesn't matter, there are people in town who will."

Nandao also jumped down.

"There's a grilled fish seller in town?"

"No, but they also sell roast chicken, they can roast chicken, they always grill some fish, but I don't know if they are closed."

The grass was carrying the fish and headed for the long street where the town's roast chicken shop was located.

The two of them made their way through the snow and stopped in front of the shop.

The shop was indeed not closed, but the shopkeeper looked at the fish carried by the grass and said with a sad face: "I have a stove, and the chicken can also be roasted, but I have never grilled fish." ”

Cao Wei Hotaru smiled and said, "Do you want to smear spices on your roast chicken to get rid of the earthy smell on the chicken?" ”

"Yes."

"Then you can put some spices on the fish, and get rid of the fishy smell on the fish."

The shopkeeper looked at the grass for fireflies suspiciously, and lifted the fish over.

"Do you want to keep the scales?"

"Do you like fish scales?"

"I don't like to eat."

Cao Weiyi sighed and said, "Then what are you keeping for?" It's impossible to expect it to be over the fire with fish scales and still be alive and kicking with you for the New Year. ”

"Hahahaha."

The shopkeeper began to draw inferences about the fish.

Cao Wei Hotaru and Nan Dao stood under the eaves, and stared at the roast chickens inside, so Cao Wei Hotaru walked in and took two out.

Nandao looked at the roast chicken in Caowei's hand, very dazed.

"Can you eat so much?"

Cao Weiyi wrapped the roast chicken there and said, "Bring it back for the little boys to eat." ”

"Where's the grilled fish?"

"I'm eating alone." Cao Weiying said, raised her eyebrows and looked at Nandao and said, "This is Lu Xiaosan's filial piety to me, you don't plan to get a piece of the pie." ”

“......”

Nan Dao was silent, if he really couldn't win, he would have to give grass a chance to firefly.

I see that you are alone in the town, come to accompany you, and you still want to do this to me?

Grass laughed softly and handed the two roast chickens in his hand to Nandao.

"When you leave, you can go to the Zhenkou wine shop to get some wine, I made a lot of peach blossom brew this time, although Chen Heshun left some, but there should be a lot more."

Nandao said curiously: "Chen He has been here?" ”

Cao Wei Hotaru smiled and said, "Yes, and this time he came to the town to buy tofu to make food for his new friend." ”

“......”

Nanjima felt that the grass was a firefly, as if she always wanted to arch the fire.

It's just that the boy didn't care, he just remembered the day he first met Chen He in March this year.

That day, Chen He very politely invited himself to drink and chat.

At first, I thought he thought he had something strange about himself to be like this.

Later, I realized that Chen He was probably such a person.

Chic and at ease.

"That's good, of course."

Nandao said with a soft laugh.

When Chen He fished himself out of the Heavenly Prison, he left Nanyi City without looking back, as if he had made up some determination.

In fact, the South Island was clear at that time.

The intersection of the two may end there.

What kind of feast is there in life?

Only after that, the rivers and lakes met by chance.

Nandao didn't care about the grass waiting for the grilled fish behind him, but carried two roast chickens and went to make peach blossoms.

Cao Weiying stood under the eaves of fine snow, smiling at the back of the young man who was leaving quickly.

Yes.

Of course, you have to be chic.

Unless the little boy is filial piety to his own fish scorched.

Cao Wei Firefly smelled the burnt smell and turned his head to look at the shop.

As it turns out, grilled fish may indeed not be the same as grilled chicken.

......

The sword was casually inserted in front of the grass house.

Although there is no night on this autumn waterfront, you can know the current time by looking at the world from afar.

It's just that whether you know the time or not is probably not that important.

Someone bought tofu and went back to make it for a friend.

Someone exchanged fish for roast chicken, and walked into the small building in exchange for the little teenagers cheering, "Uncle Shi is so handsome!" ’。

But Qiushui just sat quietly by Qiushui.

One autumn water against another.

There seems to be a lot of noise in the distance, beyond the twilight, over the mountains and forests, and falling on both sides of this autumn water.

Probably laughter in the night.

Qiushui didn't think about useless self-complaining words such as 'but the excitement is someone else'.

Just sit quietly and look at the long river in front of me that carries the twilight to the endless deep ocean in the distance.

I vaguely heard the sound of something every year.

So Qiushui also planned to catch some fish.

It was only then that the idea began to arise, and a fish jumped out of the shore and bounced its tail on the bank of the river full of maple leaves.

Qiushui smiled to himself.

"I'm just thinking about it, even if I really eat you, I won't have more than enough every year."

Autumn water is not every year.

This is the last year.

Today is the last day.

But she was as serene as she had sat quietly on a high cliff for thousands of years.

Wait for the years to pass, wait for everything to pass.

There may have been a lot of movement in the world because of this woman's descent from the cliff.

But for Qiushui, it's just going to die, so go through the world, return to the homeland, return to the place back then, and spend the last time quietly.

So the fish with the glow on its scales fell back into the long river.

In the twilight of the world, a sword light came, and then fell into the hands of the woman sitting by the autumn water.

It's a piece of green bamboo.

The bamboo leaves that can be so green at this time in the world will naturally only come from the Grinding Sword Cliff.

Qiushui quietly looked at the bamboo leaf with some sword marks in his hand, and then pinned it next to the peach blossom behind him.

Green bamboo and peach blossoms see white snow.

Bamboo leaves are naturally just ordinary bamboo leaves, perhaps asking a question.

When will that sword return to the cliff.

Qiushui quietly looked in the direction of the East China Sea, and then said softly, as if talking to himself.

"This sword is left on the cliff, you can't keep it."

So Qiushui brought it all the way, brought it to the edge of Qiushui, and inserted it in front of the grass house.

Come down the cliff and see the little girl with the soul of the great priest, or see the goddess who has been revived in Daze.

In fact, it is not necessary to carry this sword.

But Qiushui still brought it all the way, even the moment the sword left the cliff, the cultivation of the entire Great Dao in the world was more or less injured.

It's just that Qiushui has to do it.

She stood in the ancestral courtyard of the Hanging Wind Courtyard for a long time.

The arm bones of the green hanging sucptus are missing.

What is the use of the arm bones of such a scholar who has never practiced?

Sometimes it doesn't work, sometimes it works.

For example, this scholar is the first person after Tsing Yi to be able to pull out this sword.

Of course, Qiushui can also pull it out, but this is a different concept, Qiushui draws his sword, but he can't suppress those sword intents, such a vast and powerful sword intent may destroy the entire world.

But the scholar drew his sword as if he were drawing an ordinary sword.

In other words.

Qinghangxue is the only person who once recognized the owner of this sword after Tsing Yi.

So what is the use of the arm bones of the green canopy?

Qiushui didn't think about it, but calmly led the sword through the world.

She is going to die in Qiushui, and she is going to leave her sword in Qiushui for a short time.

She died here, and no one dared to touch the sword.

......

In a card hall in the East China Sea.

The people who played cards went back for the New Year.

However, the two people still got together on a table of mahjong.

The two sat opposite each other, and the two teenagers who came out of nowhere and were very similar to the two filled the vacant seats of the two who went home for the New Year.

The man sitting in the corner touched the cards and looked at his own cards and said calmly: "Your cards are still playing badly." ”

Later, the man in white said lightly: "It doesn't matter, winning or losing at the poker table never proves anything." ”

"It's the same under the table."

"We'll find out then."
