The moon stars are scarce, the white moonlight is reflected on Zhou Ping's face over the window railing, and the two of them are lying in their own quilts, their thoughts are chaotic, and they are all unable to sleep peacefully.

"Do you think I'm a very casual woman?"

Cheng Ying, who was lying on the bed, turned her back to the direction where Zhou Ping was and asked in a low voice.

"Nope. Zhou Ping's answer was very concise and crisp.

The two were silent for a long time, Cheng Ying sat up from the bed, simply pulled her hair, looked at the mottled wall, and asked softly, "How did you and her meet?"

Zhou Ping naturally knew who Cheng Ying was asking, he pondered for a moment, and replied, "When I was young, her father adopted me, and I grew up with her, studied together, and practiced together......"

Hearing this, Cheng Ying smiled and nodded, "It turned out to be a childhood sweetheart, no wonder ......"

"If you had met me first instead of her, would you have chosen me?" she asked softly.

"There is no if in this world, if there is an if, if I really change because of this so-called if, then am I still in front of you now?"

Zhou Ping is not prevaricating, how can there be so many ifs in this world, since the wood is already in the boat, it is far more useful to think more about your future than to feel sorry for yourself in the face of a if, isn't it?

Today's Cheng Ying seems to have changed a person, she didn't scold and mess around like usual, but looked at the mottled wall in front of her very calmly, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Do you remember the first time we met?" Cheng Ying smiled slightly, lowered her head and said, "You forcibly broke into the north city gate in order to catch up with the entrance test of Chang'an Immortal Academy, and I chased and killed half of you in Chang'an City with a knife!"

Zhou Ping was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, "At that time, the situation was indeed urgent, and you were ruthless enough, and you chased me for more than a dozen streets......"

mentioned the first meeting that day, the two laughed together, and extended on this topic, the two gradually opened up the conversation, from the first time they met to the same battlefield, Cheng Ying never mentioned a word about the relationship, just chatted about the past of the two.

It turns out that even if they are not lovers, the two have gone through so much and experienced so many ......

When talking about Cheng Ying buying cigarette pouches today, Cheng Ying suddenly asked, "Zhou Ping, I remember that when you and I first met, you kept staring at my cigarette pouches, why do you like cigarette pouches so much?"

Zhou Ping sat up slowly when he heard this, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a touch of imperceptible sadness.

"Because of one person, one person who changed my life. ”

Seeing Zhou Ping sitting upright like this, Cheng Ying gradually put away the smile on her face, and sat up to listen to Zhou Ping tell about the past.

"For as long as I can remember, I have lived with a yellow dog in a small town on the border of the southern country, begging every day, originally I thought I would live my life in a mess, but when the Yama army led by him appeared in my world, everything changed......"

Cheng Ying frowned slightly, and there was a little more distress in her eyes when she looked at Zhou Ping, no matter how she would have thought that the first day of the Tang Dynasty in front of her was actually a little beggar.

"That person's name is Zhou Zhen, nicknamed Old Tobacco Bag, when I first saw him, he was sitting on the steps smoking, he listened to my harmonica playing well, and specially gave me two steamed buns, to be honest, it was the best steamed bun I have eaten in my life. ”

As he spoke, Zhou Ping pointed to the cigarette pouch that Cheng Ying put on the table and smiled, "His cigarette pouch is too similar to yours, when I first saw your cigarette pouch, I thought for a moment that he was back, hehe......"

Cheng Ying followed Zhou Ping's gaze and looked at the old cigarette pouch and pot on the table, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, it was just a stall with more than ten pennies.

"And after that, was this old cigarette pouch the one who took you out of the town?" Cheng Ying continued.

Zhou Ping narrowed his eyes lightly and slowly shook his head, "At the beginning, their troops were almost ambushed by the beast clan, and I saved their lives, so the old cigarette pouch discovered my talent for knowing beast language, and not only began to teach me to learn and practice, but also gave me the name Zhou Ping." ”

"Maybe you don't know yet, this old man whose real name is Zhou Zhen is the father of Zhou Ping, the soul seed of ten thousand lives twenty years ago, and on that day, he gave me this name, so that I, a little beggar who can only beg along the street, have a name and roots!"

Cheng Ying was silent, she didn't expect Zhou Ping's fate to be so troubled, and even a name was so hard-won.

"Later, those orcs who ambushed them began to attack the city, aren't you curious that when I was in Cloud City, I had already guessed that the wolf clan would dig a hole in the ground and sneak attack?"

Zhou Ping looked at Cheng Ying, paused, and then said word by word, "Because I suffered this loss many years ago, and that city was so broken back then!"

"Tens of thousands of people in the city, hundreds of Yama army soldiers, except for me, escaped under the protection of the old cigarette pouch and the ancestors of the Yama army, and the rest of the people ...... All slaughtered!"

"And the initiator of all this, the one who led the beast clan to attack the city, is the three-eyed white tiger!!"

Having said this, the doubts that had been hidden in Cheng Ying's heart were finally solved. No wonder Zhou Ping has a soft spot for cigarette pouches, no wonder he wants to kill the three-pupiled white tiger so much, it turns out that this is the case!

"Just when I was about to be killed by this three-eyed white tiger, Uncle Chu Li, who was the commander of the Yama army, appeared to save me, and I was adopted by Uncle Chu because of this, and I embarked on the path of cultivation little by little......"

Zhou Ping didn't have much emotional fluctuations, not that he had let go of the hatred in his heart, but that he had grown up, and he knew how to hide something in his heart and control his emotions.

The two sat opposite each other for a long time, Zhou Ping let out a sigh of relief, and took the lead in speaking, "It's not early, we have to get up early tomorrow morning and rush back, let's go to bed early." ”

After that, Zhou Ping lay down again, turned his back to Cheng Ying, and didn't make a sound.

Cheng Ying also lay back in the bed, as soon as she closed her eyes, all in her mind were the figures of Zhou Ping and her brother's shabby cigarette pouch.

When she was recuperating in Changning City, Zhou Ping's eyes were so indifferent when she looked at her, and when she wanted to give Zhou Ping the newly bought cigarette pouch, he still refused without hesitation.

On the one hand, he is a childhood sweetheart who has been quiet for years, and on the other hand, he is a guy who smokes, drinks, scolds, and fights, and no matter how stupid he is, he should know how to choose......

If there is any if, if he really changes his heart because of an if, is he still the person he loves?

Time won't come back, love is love, love is not love, the world is fair, I gave the two of them an unforgettable memory in this life, didn't it?

The next day, Zhou Ping woke up early, he really rarely slept on weekdays, unless he was extremely tired or upset, Zhou Ping would sleep to relieve his nervous spirit, and last night's sleep obviously belonged to the latter.

The corner of the quilt was obviously stuffed for him, and he didn't have to think about it to know who did it, there was no trace of Cheng Ying on the bed, Zhou Ping simply tidied it up and pushed the door open.

Seeing Cheng Ying sitting on the stone grinding plate in the courtyard, smoking a cigarette pouch with Erlang's legs crossed, Zhou Ping smiled at her and asked softly, "Get up so early?"

Cheng Ying pressed the corner of her eye, and the redness in her eyes was clearly visible.

"Ye didn't sleep all night!" Cheng Ying's voice was a little hoarse, judging from her words, this girl might have really squatted here and smoked all night.

"You take this!" she threw a cigarette pouch and pot at Zhou Ping, and said hoarsely, "Originally, the master bought it for you, you can not smoke it, but you must keep it for the master!"

After last night's conversation, Zhou Ping's mentality towards Cheng Ying seems to have changed a little, this time he did not refuse, but pinned the cigarette bag and pot in his hand to his waist.

"You gave me such a good gift, I'll treat you to a few more good meals when you get to Chang'an City!" Zhou Ping said with a smile.

"No need!" Cheng Ying knocked the cigarette pouch pot in her hand on the sole of her shoe, and then said hoarsely, "Acquaintance with you is already the best gift God has given me." ”

Just when Zhou Ping wanted to say something, Cheng Ying suddenly said, "You turn around, I have something to say to you." ”

Although he didn't know what she was going to say, Zhou Ping granted her wish and turned around with a confused expression.

At the moment when Zhou Ping turned around, the cigarette pouch pot pinned to Zhou Ping's waist came into Cheng Ying's eyes, looking at the small indentation on the cigarette pouch pot because of perennial use, Cheng Ying finally couldn't suppress her emotions, and tears poured out of her red eyes like a burst.

She opened her mouth slowly, her voice trembling but resolute.

"Zhou Ping, I decided not to love you anymore!"

The back in front of her was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.

"Good. ”
