Prologue: Sunset
"Don't miss it when you pass by, today's storytelling session is about to start again. The speaker's clapper made a loud noise on the table, startling the group of diners downstairs.
"Storyteller, you are looking for death, it is so scary, it scares all my flesh!" one of the guests, whose faces were stained with rice grains, stood up angrily and pointed to a piece of fat that had fallen to the ground.
"That's right, eating, isn't it scary. ”
"We're talking about business, if you have something to say, let's talk about it, if you have a fart, don't delay the uncle to make money. ”
“......”
Almost all the people in the next son were dissatisfied, and the whole hall was pointing fingers at him.
The storyteller looked at the full house, his face couldn't help but blush, his legs trembled slightly, and the story he had originally thought of was forgotten at once.
"Yo, what are you shaking, but hurry up and talk about it, weren't you angry just now?" a man saw the storyteller's face blush, so he mocked while sipping melon seeds.
The storyteller swallowed and thought to himself, I have confidence in my story, and I am not afraid that the officials will not like it. He picked up the clapper again and knocked it hard, as a way to cheer himself up, and the tension on his face slowly eased a lot.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are blessed today, I just thought of a good story and was about to share it with everyone. ”
"Then hurry up, don't waste time!" another guest interjected, and the rest of the group followed.
"Good, good!" the storyteller hurriedly waved his hand, suppressing all the commotion of the crowd.
Then, he held the fan on his waist and turned it on, his eyes blinked, and his voice was deliberately low and low, full of mystery. "It's a long story, listen to me talk to you slowly!"
Li Feng pushed Mo Yu and walked slowly under the sunset, and they walked along the dirt road, the grass on both sides was covered with a pale red tulle, and they nodded gently with the wind.
Mo Yuyi was dressed in simple clothes, sitting in a wheelchair, with a brown blanket on his legs, and his white hair fluttering gently in the breeze. Although he is old, he does not have the sense of twilight vicissitudes on his face, on the contrary, he seems to be very energetic.
At sunset, the afterglow stained half of the sky, like a faint red wine spilling on the curtain, gradually spreading. The light was infinite, and the golden light was faint, reflecting their cheeks and their white hair.
"Time flies so fast, I feel old in the blink of an eye. Li Feng said softly, "It feels like I haven't seen the sunset for a long time." ”
Yu Yi listened to Li Feng's words and couldn't help asking, "What's the matter, suddenly so sad?"
"I've lived for more than 50 years, but I feel like I've never seen it properly. Now that I think about it, I kind of regret it. ”
"This place now is not what we used to be, time is very fast, and this place is ......changing all the time," Yu Yi glanced at Li Feng's side face and teased, "It's strange to say, this is not like Li Feng who roamed the rivers and lakes with me at the beginning." ”
Li Feng smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Do you still feel young?" Watching the new generation of children grow up, I began to realize that time flies so fast, and our generation may really have to quit." ”
"If there is still an enemy, I can still go up. Yu Yi said with a smile.
"Look at your legs, if you don't take good care of them, you're really going to be crippled, who will take care of you?" Li Feng was disgusted and gently pinched his arm.
"You, who else could it be?"
"It's been so many years of old husband and wife, are you still..."Still unable to stand the ridicule as back then, Li Feng blushed and stopped talking.
Yu Yi raised his right arm and pointed to the scenery in front of him: "In the past, I liked to lie here alone, looking at the ink bamboo forest in the distance, and looking forward to the outside world. At that time, it was still a hillside, and there was often fog at night, so it was a beautiful thing to see the starry sky there. Later, I actually destroyed this place with my own hands..."Yuichi stopped, sighed, and in his mind, it seemed that there was a stone tablet on the hillside, like a girl staying there.
Yu Yi shook his head with a wry smile, and then said, "I used to think that the black dust was too small, so I always wanted to look outside. But the truth is, I don't know anything about my hometown. I don't know when I finally found out that the black dust is very big, but it is only a small place in the continent. The continent is huge, but it is only a part of this world. I can't see it at all in my life, but it's better to be familiar with my hometown. ”
In front of me is a paddy field, the water surface is like a mirror, the green shoots are strong, reflecting the glow. A few peasants had just finished their work, carrying hoes, humming a little song, and drinking a pot of wine, and were at ease in the fields, with smiles on their faces.
"I didn't expect such a big change in more than ten years. There was a little more heaviness in Yu Yi's words, but soon, he changed the topic and asked, "Who put this place in order?"
"It was Jo'er and Shen'er, their idea. It's not just here, the whole black dust has been cleaned up quite well. ”
Mo Yu smiled for a while: "Zhushen, this kid's future is limitless, plus Qiao'er, Mo Sect handed it over to them, we can rest assured." ”
"Yes, like the sunset, even if it eventually sets over the mountain, it will rise again tomorrow. Li Feng sniffed the oncoming flowers, looked at the sunset, and muttered.
"Can you accompany me to the cemetery in a few days, my father and mother, as well as the eldest brother and second brother, the eldest sister and the second sister... It should be reported to them as well. Mo Yu reflected the sunset on the horizon at a glance, and the faces of those deceased relatives appeared in his mind.
"Okay, I'll accompany you. Li Feng pushed him, and his gaze stayed on the western sky.
"Let's go back. Yu Yi looked at Li Feng and smiled with satisfaction, his gaze was still as gentle as before.
She nodded, and pushed Mo Yuyi towards the way home.
Under the sunset, although the figures of the two are simple, they are still warm.
Mo Yuyi closed his eyes, felt the breath of the wind, and the green years of the year came to his mind......
When the storyteller finished, he picked up the teacup next to him and took a sip to wet his chapped lips while moistening his throat.
And the audience below was immediately dissatisfied.
"Hey, what are you talking about, no head or tail, fooling me?"
"What you say in this book, it's not cool, it's not explosive, we can't get into the story at all, garbage!"
"That's it, what Li Feng, it sounds like a man, it's not interesting at all, return the money!"
"Return the money, return the money!" The people below inexplicably united, and they raised their left hands in protest towards the storyteller in the center of the second floor.
"Bad plot, I didn't say anything, return the money, return the money!"
The complaints of the crowd grew louder and louder, and the boss hurriedly ran out from behind, looked at the boiling people below, and then looked at the new storyteller, and instantly understood what was going on. He walked up to the crowd, raised his hands and pressed them down, signaling them to calm down.
"Boss, who are you looking for, you talk so badly, return the money quickly!"
"Everyone!" the boss raised his voice and saluted them with his fists in his hands, "Xiao He is new and has no experience, but his story is quite exciting, I believe him." ”
He turned around, put his palm on Xiao He's shoulder, and said, "This guy is stupid, he may not be able to speak well at first, but looking back, it will make everyone's eyes shine!"
"Really?" muttered someone in the crowd, "what is a newcomer?"
"Newcomers aren't necessarily bad. Xiao He muttered in a low voice.
"Okay, okay, everyone, believe me, you continue to listen, it is estimated that there will be a breaking story in a few back and forth, if you like it, support it, if you don't like it, you can also leave, I'm sorry for delaying you so much!"
Seeing that the boss had said this, the three or two people who were the only ones left at the bottom glanced at each other, walked back to their seats, endured their irritability, and continued to listen to Xiao He.
"Come on!" the boss gently squeezed the storyteller's shoulder.
"I will!" Xiao He promised.
