Chapter 21 Gusu Water Town
The scenery of Gusu Water Town is extremely beautiful, and in this beautiful and quiet heavenly beauty, there is a well-known force of rivers and lakes, Lost Butterfly Town.
"Zhuang Shengxiao dreams of butterflies, and hopes that the emperor will trust the cuckoo in spring. ”
These people who live in a corner are not caught up in the disputes of the rivers and lakes, and they just live the most ordinary life with peace of mind on weekdays. But the rivers and lakes will never forget what they have done because of their indisputability with the world, so Misty Butterfly Town has always been in the ranks of evil sects, and the people in Misty Butterfly Town have not tried to wash away the reputation left by their elders.
"Ahh
"What's wrong?" a handsome man in his thirties sat beside him with a smile and handed over a porcelain bowl, "Freshly peeled lotus seeds, do you want to eat them?"
Zhao Qingyan grabbed a few grains and threw them into his mouth, squinting his eyes in enjoyment: "It's so delicious." ”
"Eh!" the man couldn't stop it, watching him chew the lotus seeds carefully without changing his face, and smiled bitterly, "The lotus heart is still there, and you are really not afraid of hardship." ”
Zhao Qingyan reached out and grabbed a few more grains and stuffed them into his mouth: "It's not bitter, it's not bitter, it's very sweet." ”
The man said helplessly: "Don't you look like a child? Is it so difficult to peel off the lotus heart? ”
Zhao Qingyan yawned: "For me, there is no taste of 'bitter', I have already practiced it." By the way, Jiang Wuyan, you're really casual these days, don't you mind if I have time to come and live for a few months, right?"
Jiang Wuyan said: "Of course I don't mind, I am idle every day." It's a pity, you definitely can't be idle, and you probably won't be able to stay for a few months. ”
Zhao Qingyan turned over, leaned on the side of the boat and reached out to touch the water: "Probably, I say to myself every day that my heart is like stopping water, but in fact, my heart is more troublesome than anyone else." ”
Jiang Wuyan smiled and said: "You are still young, even if you have experienced too much and your heart is more tired than others, you will inevitably have young mental strength." After a few years, I will see it and let it go, and it will not be like this. ”
Zhao Qingyan looked at him with a light smile: "Is it a good thing to be impetuous?"
Jiang Wuyan said: "I don't think it's a bad thing. Each age has different experiences, and if you live old and quiet early, how boring will it be?"
Zhao Qingyan watched the water flow through his fingers, lowered his eyes and asked, "You say, what kind of life is not in vain? Deviant and pointing to the sky? Or do you dance and write and keep your heart?"
Jiang Wuyan was silent for a while and asked, "Can you still find your true heart?"
Zhao Qingyan said: "I don't know, probably, there is more." ”
Jiang Wuyan stretched out his hand to support his face: "You can actually forgive Tang Xiaoyu, I think it's incredible." If it weren't for him, with your qualifications and family background, what kind of life would you not have?"
"Qualifications, family background, are you talking about this?" Looking from the side, Zhao Qingyan's chin was thin, his skin was pale, and his face was a little colder, "I don't know what kind of life I would have had without poisoning, but I know that after I was poisoned, there was not much life, so I could let go of everything and experience my life." Only forgiveness...... The people who survive are the ones who don't hate him, right?"
Jiang Wuyan looked at him quietly, and suddenly said after a while: "Yunmo." ”
"Huh?" Zhao Qingyan looked back at him, his eyes were shallow, and his clean face was a little youthful and youthful that had not faded, and he looked so simple and gentle in this piece of peace.
Jiang Wuyan asked, "Do you want to kill someone?"
Zhao Qingyan was surprised: "Kill whom?"
Jiang Wuyan said: "When Zhu Yankai had a seizure, did you want to kill someone?"
"Of course, how can you not want to?" Zhao Qingyan stretched out his arm a little, "Zhu Yankai is eroding his mind, it will make people violent, so he definitely wants to kill someone." ”
Jiang Wuyan smiled bitterly: "Self-cultivation...... It's just nonsense. ”
Zhao Qingyan sprinkled water on his face and narrowed his eyes: "Self-cultivation can't really avoid the madness of seizures, at least it's useful." The fact that these people who are still alive are peaceful in temperament means that they are useful. ”
Jiang Wuyan looked at his hand and muttered, "I always feel like I can't hold on." ”
Zhao Qingyan looked back at him and laughed: "I hurt my subordinates, I can't think of planning to die?"
Jiang Wuyan sighed: "Yes, I always feel guilty to death." Probably the same as Tongxuan, he pretended to be dead because he was afraid of hurting important people. I want to play dead now and find a quiet place to stay. ”
Zhao Qingyan turned over and lay on his back, his right hand hanging outside, and his fingertips swept across the water from time to time: "Is there a cleaner place than you?"
Jiang Wuyan asked rhetorically, "No?"
Zhao Qingyan put his hand on his eyes to block the sun: "I used to think that the Qi Wangfu was the most quiet place, but then I found that the Light Wind Palace was more quiet, and then I felt that your Lost Butterfly Town was the real quiet place." I can't think of a quieter place to be. ”
Jiang Wuyan half-joked: "It's good to become a monk and avoid the troubles of the world." ”
Zhao Qingyan curled his lips: "How boring it is to be a monk, it may not be quiet here." How chic is it to be idle and panicked, and your subordinates to accompany you to play chess and discuss swords? If it weren't for the fact that my relatives are all in Bianliang, I would definitely stay here for the rest of my life. ”
Jiang Wuyan said in a low voice: "I really don't want to bother them. Looking at Zhao Qingyan, who didn't answer, he asked, "You're not worried at all?"
Zhao Qingyan said lazily: "Don't worry, I can generally restrain myself from hurting people when I'm crazy now." And...... Although I don't know how long it will last, at least now my father and uncle will not hate to alienate me because I am crazy. To be honest, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone, I don't have to worry about it. ”
Jiang Wuyan didn't know if he heard it or not, he looked into the distance for a while, and suddenly said, "How many years can you last?"
Zhao Qingyan roughly calculated: "If it doesn't go well, it will start hurting people in one year, and in two or three years, it will be completely out of control, and it will go crazy in five or six years, right? ”
Jiang Wuyan asked, "It's not going well?
Zhao Qingyan said: "Find a way to detoxify." ”
Jiang Wuyan smiled: "You are confident, I may not be able to wait." ”
Zhao Qingyan moved his hand to look at him, with a bit of seriousness in his eyes: "You're not really going to seek death, are you?"
Jiang Wuyan's gaze moved back from a distance: "Not for the time being, when I hurt the people around me again, I will change places and live in seclusion, if I still can't support it...... Let's talk about it. ”
Zhao Qingyan muttered: "Early, Tang Xiaoyu can be safe and sound, what are you afraid of? Drink blood, kill and kill people and get through." ”
Jiang Wuyan was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "By the way, have you seen Tang Xiaoyu?"
Zhao Qingyan replied casually: "No, someone asked for me, and I was too happy not to see him." ”
Jiang Wuyan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's okay." ”
Zhao Qingyan fished his hand out of the water, and pressed it on his forehead with the coolness: "It doesn't matter." ”
Jiang Wuyan frowned and asked, "It doesn't matter, how can it be indifferent? We can all not hate Tang Xiaoyu, but you are the only one who can't not hate him......!
Zhao Qingyan sat up and interrupted: "Okay, don't say it." Hate this thing, and when it reaches a certain point, it becomes numb. It's not that I don't hate him, it's that I don't have the mood to hate. He hurt me, but he also saved me. It is difficult to determine whether it is right or wrong. Right or wrong, what can I do? Can I kill him? No. Then I told myself over and over again what he had done to me, wasn't that self-inflicted?"
Jiang Wuyan said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I said too much. ”
Zhao Qingyan smiled absently, reached out and grabbed the lotus seed that had been forgotten because of his words and stuffed it into his mouth: "What are you sorry for? Don't be so serious." ”
Jiang Wuyan watched Zhao Qingyan still put the lotus seed with the lotus heart directly into his mouth and ate it, feeling a bitter and astringent taste in his mouth, and couldn't help but say: "I'm begging you, don't eat like this anymore, I'm disgusted when I see it." ”
Zhao Qingyan peeled off the lotus heart as he said, and asked with a smile on his face: "What's the matter? I eat your lotus seeds like this? I don't see it being more delicious than the lotus seeds from the lotus flowers raised in my house. ”
Jiang Wuyan said with a smile: "There are all famous varieties in your house that are hard to find, and they are delicious just thinking about it." ”
Zhao Qingyan wrinkled his nose: "Bitter!"
Jiang Wuyan was stunned for a long time before he understood what he meant, and he didn't know how to describe him: "You are really ......"
Zhao Qingyan said: "You have lotus seeds here in July, and I will not bear seeds until September." Hey, I said, will you come to my house at the end of September? You'll be fine here, right? Come and accompany me? There are many kinds of lotus seeds, you can eat them all. ”
Jiang Wuyan was stunned for a moment, unable to determine what he meant: "Are you really inviting me to go?"
Zhao Qingyan said: "Yes, it's quite boring for me to stay in the house every day, and Uncle Thirteen is busy, and only Lu Wei can accompany me over and over again." At the end of September, you're very idle here, aren't you? Come and stay for a while, play chess with me or something. At that time, the affairs of the puppet palace were all over, and there was nothing to worry about. Anyway, you're upset staying here, so it's good to change your mood, right?"
Jiang Wuyan looked at his hopeful eyes, and nodded in agreement: "Okay, then it's about the end of September, I'll go to you in two months, and I can stay there for about a month, right?" ”
Zhao Qingyan smiled leisurely: "Then it's a word, I also want to enjoy a comfortable day." ”
Jiang Wuyan glanced at him: "You, a person who can run to me to hide from me and enjoy leisure with the slightest trouble, actually dare to say such vicissitudes." ”
Zhao Qingyan sat up, grabbed the tea on the side and took a few big sips: "Don't say it so bluntly, there are also reasons why I am a little worried about you." ”
Jiang Wuyan knew that he had been running around for a few days to get here, and it was definitely not for enjoyment, that is, to tease her: "Write a letter next time and send it, you are not in good health, don't run around like this." ”
Zhao Qingyan waved his hand again and again: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm also here to relax, this is a good haven." It will be very boring to feel at home, and I will feel uncomfortable. ”
"Haven't you taken refuge?" Jiang Wuyan pondered carefully, "Isn't it too far?"
Zhao Qingyan let out an exaggerated long sigh: "That's no way." Aside from the home of the three of you, I don't have much to go anywhere without restrictions. Lu Wei moved to Bianliang, and the breeze ran to you to pretend to be dead, so I can only come here?"
Hearing him talk about the Light Wind Palace, Jiang Wuyan suddenly remembered something: "Speaking of which, there will be no danger on Ran Xingchen's side, right?"
Zhao Qingyan said: "No, I sent a lot of guards to Qingfeng Palace in the name of Ouchi needing him to assist in the investigation. ”
Jiang Wuyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." ”
Zhao Qingyan smiled and said: "That's the son of the breeze, where can I care? I'm tired, I'll sleep for a while." I'll stay for a few days and then go back, you don't want to rush me. ”
Jiang Wuyan looked at him funny: "No, you can stay if you want." ”
"Thank you. Zhao Qingyan turned over, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
