Chapter Seventy-Two: Ten Years

This expected stubborn and resistant look and tone of voice in vain reminded Nan Ling of the Wangshu White Snake possessed by the moon bone.

He froze in place for a while, looking at the man's black and white eyes, he suddenly slapped his thigh and stood up, said no word, and turned around to leave.

He didn't have a negative expression on his face, but raised his eyebrows with a very interesting look, and then took out half a string of sugar gourds wrapped in oiled paper from his arms with a smile, and bit it on his own, eating as he walked, so comfortable. The beggar-like man looked at his back in a daze, Nan Ling's good temper and forbearance made him feel inexplicably angry, and he couldn't help but stand up and scold: "Neurotic!"

He was furious in his heart, although this guy saved himself. Maybe it was the way he grinned that made him feel uncomfortable, or maybe it was the nonchalant smile that reminded him of the person he hated so much.

Hearing this, Nan Ling turned around suspiciously with half a sugar gourd fruit in his mouth, swallowed the fruit into his mouth, and responded vaguely, "What?" The man gritted his teeth and continued to scold: "I said you are insane!"

Nan Ling didn't look at him, just laughed, left him with a dashing back monk and waved his hand in greeting, and disappeared around the corner.

The man looked stunned in the direction in which Nan Ling had disappeared, snorted, and muttered in a low voice, "Sick." And he went in the opposite direction. Under the bridge, the empty flask was on the cold ground, and the passing wild cat sniffed it, and let out a piercing meow, and fled into the darkness.

Vertical day.

"Mengsheng...... Mengsheng.......Where are you going......"

Lying on the ground covered with messy grass and broken stones, Yu Mengsheng, who was curled up, felt a biting coldness.

He was babbling something in a daze, as if he were having a nightmare. He clenched his fists tightly, his brow tightly locked even in his sleep. After a few moments, he couldn't help coughing.

At first, it was just a slight cough, but then it became more and more uncontrollable, and the shock made his chest hurt, and his throat was itching, and the pain was like a huge beetle pouting his chest with its sharp and stiff six claws, and he could even feel the shape of his lungs through this violent cough. The tremor was so strong that he finally opened his sleepy eyes.

He sat up and looked around blankly, the morning sun was shining, the joyful birds were chasing me and frolicking in the branches, the crowds were walking through the streets against the golden morning light, and the big rooster singing was shaking his big red crests and staring around with round riveted eyes.

He had a headache, his mouth was so dry that he felt so bad that he couldn't remember what he had done yesterday.

That's right - I drank too much yesterday, mixed into a green house, and then was thrown out, and was found when I walked to the river to steal roast chicken, and then ...... Then he was caught by a neurotic dressed in black, and he was taken away inexplicably....... thinking about this made him a little unhappy.

Yesterday, that guy, is his head abnormal? Talking inexplicably, he ran with himself without saying a word, a big man was too happy to eat a sugar gourd, hippie smiling, I'm afraid it's a nervous disorder!

He shook his head, touched his stomach, and was a little hungry, so he thought about where to get some food. But he has wandered around all the places in Qingshuihe Town, and many people have remembered him, and when they see him, they are like seeing a mouse, picking up a broom or something like that, and catching up, and then going, is it impossible to find death?

He looked around at the ruined house, which was covered with a thin layer of light in the morning sun, like syrup. This is his home. It's not so much a house, it's better to honestly confess that it's actually just a ruin.

There were no walls on all sides, only a few old whitened pillars and broken foundations, and he used the thatch he had collected to set up a small tent in the corner of the foundation, and spread some dry wood in it to keep warm. In this way, it is a warm "home".

Yu Mengsheng is actually very satisfied with his masterpiece, although on a rainy day, this "home" will be washed away by heavy rain, and it will have to be rebuilt. But he is also satisfied, at least he has a sustenance in his heart, at least he doesn't have to be cold and starving.

But yesterday I drank too much, and I remembered that I was easy to dispel sorrow again, and then I couldn't help crying in front of that strange person.

It's just that he doesn't know himself, he hasn't seen himself, maybe because of this, he doesn't care about shedding tears in front of him.

He had secretly made many vows that since then, even if he wants to live a life of wandering the world without a fixed place, he will never shed a single tear again. But after really living this kind of life, he still can't control his emotions, thinking about it, he misses her too much.

The one who laughs with crooked eyes is easy to dissipate.

He couldn't help but recall the scene of his first encounter with Yi Xiaochou.

At that time, he was still a weak young man, powerless and defenseless. The self-sustaining family has a big business, and he is a little frivolous when he learns to be rich and has five cars. was determined to achieve something great in the world, until he met her.

The first time I saw her, it was on Yifu.

As the two major local families, in order to ensure the family's monopoly interests in local resources, the Yi family and the Yu family must have a couple of men and women marrying among each generation. This generation is Yu Mengsheng and Yi Xiaoshou.

He had never seen such a girl who didn't know how to be polite, although her face was pale and weak, she spoke and acted like a wealthy lady who was pampered and arrogant. Although he was born in the Yi family, which is also a famous family, because she is a young daughter, she is favored by her elders, so she is a blessed land, never takes Yu Mengsheng in her eyes, and often bullies him.

However, her eyes are crooked when she laughs, she is very good-looking, and her body is not good, although Yu Mengsheng does not spare her, she can only let her bully. Yi Xiaochou always dislikes him for being clumsy, but he always likes to ask him to pick fruits for himself to eat, or catch crickets and the like, Yu Mengsheng climbs up every time, if he accidentally falls down, Yi Xiaochou will always laugh, and there is no appearance of everyone at all.

Once, it was snowing heavily, and Yi Xiaoshou came to Yu Mengsheng to build a snowman and have a snowball fight with her, but Yu Mengsheng couldn't stand her coercion and temptation, so he accompanied her. But I didn't think about it, I was easy to get rid of my sorrow, and I had a high fever due to cold, and I almost died. Yu Mengsheng remembered that she sat on the edge of her bed with tears in her eyes, and kept apologizing to her, but her pale face was easy to dissipate but grinned, asking him to take her next time.

What a stupid girl who doesn't want to die.

That's all he had at the time.

On that day, Yi Xiaochou suddenly pulled him up to the roof to look at the stars, the night sky was bright and vast, and faint meteors crossed the night sky, beautiful and dreamy. The night breeze was slightly cool, a little cold, Yi Xiaoshou obediently got into his arms, Yu Mengsheng's cheeks were flushed, he was stiff and rigidly holding Yi Xiaoshou's weak body, his brain was chaotic, and he couldn't think of anything.

He looked down at her resting with his eyes closed in his arms, the long eyelashes and delicate side face were a picture he would never forget in his life.

"When you grow up, you have to watch the stars with me. Yi Xiao's cheeks were slightly red, and he whispered.

That year, they were sixteen years old.

The name Yi Xiaochou is strange, it was given by her grandfather. Because her mother had a difficult birth when she gave birth to her, and finally near-death required to sacrifice herself to keep the child, so the name is easy to dispel sorrow, and it means to know the difficulties of life, not to live up to the life that her mother used her life to exchange for her, and grow up happily.

And it is easy to eliminate sorrow when born, that is, it is weak and sick, and it has never been better. After the easy to dispel the sorrowful father Yi Zhiqiu spent a lot of money to drag someone to invite a Dao aunt, the Dao aunt closed her eyes slightly, gently clicked a little easy to dispel the sorrowful Tianling cover with her hand, sighed, Dao This woman was born with too feminine physique, and it was her mother who exchanged her life for life to save her life, so she would unconsciously attract the yin and evil qi between heaven and earth.

Yi Zhiqiu's eyes were full of sadness, and he asked what to do.

That Dao Gu was expressionless, as if she was not moved by all kinds of joys and sorrows in the world, and said in a cold voice, she knows an elder of the Immortal Family Sect who specializes in accepting such female disciples, if she is willing, she can let her go to the apprenticeship with her sorrows, maybe she will be saved.

That was the last time he heard the news of Yi Xiaoxiao.

In the next eight years, he only knew that Yi Xiaochou was taken by that Dao Gu to a place called Huayin Valley to practice, and he was far away from the world. When I saw her again, she had already become a fairy who had escaped from the dust, and Yi Xiao's eyes were also so cold and emotionless when she looked at him.

He smiled dejectedly and decided not to.

But then he sighed again, even if he didn't want to, what use could it be? I swore a poisonous oath many times, always saying that I wanted to wander the world, I wanted to wander the world, and from then on I had no worries, and I played life. In fact, he still circled around Huayin Valley and never left. I'm so cowardly, let Xiao Sorrow know, I'm afraid I'm going to laugh at him again, right?

He looked around and realized that he was not in his "little home". I have been depressed for a long time, but yesterday I cried unexpectedly so much that when I came back, I was so dazed that I didn't even know that I slept at the door of my house. Yu Mengsheng smiled dejectedly, leaned against a pillar, and tilted his head and closed his eyes.

Unknowingly, ten years have passed, and this is the first time he has returned to Qingshuihe Town.

Time flies, and no one knows why he always wanders around the town, or that he is trying to save Yi from sorrow.

He has broken through the barrier of Huayin Valley countless times, but he came back with a wound, he has cried silently in the night countless times, gritted his teeth countless times, and has been disappointed and desperate countless times, and now, only the obsession that penetrates into the bones still drives him to wander here like a ghost, not daring to approach, refusing to leave.

Overhead, a wildflower grows from an old wooden pillar and sways gently in the breeze. The thin petals couldn't bear the weight of the silver dew in the early morning, and with a slight tilt, the crystal dew dripped on Yu Mengsheng's face. Dew slid down the inner corner of the eye like a tear.
