Lu Qingjiu took a nap, and felt that his fatigue was swept away. Seeing that it was getting late, he got up to make dinner.
Yin Xun came back quite late, and when he came back, his expression was very resentful. Lu Qingjiu thought he was given an injection, so he didn't think much about it. He didn't know how his poor little son was threatened.
After Jiang Buhuan left, they resumed their peaceful life as before. The farm work at home would never be finished, and the two little white pigs raised at home had grown into big pigs. These two little white pigs were bought together when the little black flowers came, but the little black flowers still looked like little pigs, and the little white pigs had become big pigs. In order to keep them through the winter, Lu Qingjiu has not forgotten to ask Yin Xun to burn a pot of charcoal for them every day, and cook a pot of hot pig food. A pig pulls the big one.
"So what do you want to say to them now?" Lu Qingjiu asked Yin Xun, the big white pig has almost grown up after a year of raising it, and the meat will grow old if you keep it, so he plans to find a good time to kill the pig. to eat meat.
"I want to say." Yin Xun said, "I hope their meat tastes a little better."
Lu Qingjiu: "..." He thought of Xiaohua who died young.
Since they decided to eat pork, the task of slaughtering the pigs fell into their hands. The village was small and there were no slaughterers at all. The villagers slaughtered the pigs they raised by themselves. Although Lu Qingjiu had killed chickens before, he had never done anything with an animal as big as a pig. After asking his neighbors about the process, he was very hopeless.
"It seems to be about tying the pig to the stool and stabbing it down." Yin Xun danced with a borrowed pig-killing knife beside him, "The blood came down with a hurrah..."
Lu Qingjiu: "...Are you coming? I'll press it for you?"
Yin Xun whispered, "But I haven't killed it before. This pig is heavier than me."
Lu Qingjiu: "…"
The two looked at each other for a moment, and then their eyes floated to the same place - on Bai Yuehu who was sitting in the yard.
Lu Qingjiu slowly walked over to Bai Yuehu with a pig-killing knife: "Hu'er."
Bai Yuehu opened his eyes: "Killing pigs?" He had heard the conversation between the two just now.
Lu Qingjiu: "Um... um."
Bai Yuehu said: "Okay." He sat up from the chair, reached out and took the knife in Lu Qingjiu's hand, got up and walked towards the pigsty. Looking at it, Lu Qingjiu hurriedly grabbed a basin and followed behind. Pig blood is a good thing, and it tastes good when used to make blood sausages.
Bai Yuehu arrived at the pig sty with a grim expression, stretched out his hand and took the pig out. Other people have to have a few big men to hold the pig to kill the pig. He doesn't need it at all. Like a small animal as helpless. Then the red knife went in and the white knife came out. With that resolute and indifferent expression, Yin Xun, who was watching, felt an inexplicable chill in his neck, and involuntarily took a few steps back.
Bai Yuehu is a very competent pig butcher. After killing the pig, he did not forget to divide the pig meat. The pork was quickly divided into several large pieces in his hands. Lu Qingjiu took a pig leg and gave it to the next door. Li Xiaoyu's house, the rest is going to make a pork dinner.
Different from the pork bought in the town, their pork is very good in quality and very fragrant. Lu Qingjiu took out the pork belly, stir-fried the pork belly, stewed a pot of pig's feet soup, and marinated four pig trotters and Pig ears and pig head meat are used for salad dressing. All in all, every part of the pig body is used to the best of its ability.
The fat on the pigs fed with grain is much less than that of pigs fed with feed, but it is very fragrant. It is put in a pot to refine oil, and the remaining oil residue is sprinkled with white sugar, which is another side dish.
After killing the pigs, the family was as happy as the New Year, and even Xiaoheihua got a big boiled bone stick, which they gnawed with relish.
It's April, the weather is getting warmer, and the clothes are becoming less and less. In the evening, Lu Qingjiu brought the pig ears and feet that had been marinated during the day to the yard, and took a few bottles of cold beer. The three of them ate in the yard. chat. The pork trotters and pig ears have become soft and glutinous after being marinated in brine. If you like spicy taste, you can also dip them in chili noodles mixed with sesame seeds and spices.
The weather is very good today, the moon is very round, and the atmosphere in the yard is very good. Bai Yuehu doesn't like drinking very much, but he is still very interested in luwei. Yin Xun talked about some strange things he encountered after he became a mountain god, such as some parents who didn't want their children and deliberately took their children up the mountain to throw them away, or helped them find a way to get them down the mountain safely.
Lu Qingjiu wanted to frown when he heard it, and was about to say why there are such irresponsible parents, but suddenly there was a loud noise from the horizon. The sound seemed to be the collapse of a mountain, and the shocked Lu Qingjiu's ears were buzzing. Bai Yuehu, who was sitting on the rocking chair with a calm expression, suddenly changed his face, saying, "You stay at home and don't move."
"What happened?" Lu Qingjiu asked hurriedly.
Bai Yuehu shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, I'll go take a look first." He stood up, a black mist rose around him, and then disappeared in front of Lu Qingjiu.
Lu Qingjiu had never seen Bai Yuehu's expression so solemn before, he said, "What's the matter?"
Yin Xun said dumbly, "The sky seems to be broken..."
Lu Qingjiu: "The sky is broken??" He looked in the direction Yin Xun was looking at, and found that the innocence seemed to be broken. In the sky that had already darkened, an extremely long red glow appeared. It penetrated the sky, leaving a dazzling trace in the sky, but there seemed to be black clouds moving in the glow, as if something was about to pour out of it, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun were stunned together. Although they didn't know what that ray of light meant, obviously, it was not a good thing. Black clouds continued to overflow from the ray of light, and the whole sky seemed to be leaking. .
Yin Xun's uneasy feeling grew stronger and stronger. He said, "Sake, let's go back to the house."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Okay."
The two left the yard, returned to the house, and closed the doors and windows.
The red glow gradually expanded, Lu Qingjiu watched from a distance, waiting for its change. Yin Xun was a little more sensitive than Lu Qingjiu, so he didn't dare to look outside anymore, but huddled in the corner of the room, his body shaking slightly involuntarily. Lu Qingjiu looked at him and asked worriedly, "Are you all right, Yin Xun?"
"No... I'm fine." Yin Xun said in a trembling voice, "Sake, you... do you know... The year your parents had an accident, there was a ray of light like this in the sky."
Lu Qingjiu was stunned.
"Then it was the continuous heavy rain." Yin Xun lowered his head, "I can't feel anything." He was originally the mountain god in the mountains. Every grass and tree on the mountain, all changes can emerge in his heart, but this glow As soon as he came out, his perception of the mountain seemed to be blocked by a strange force, and everything he could see was nothingness.
Lu Qingjiu thought of his parents' death. He had always thought that his parents' death was an accident. Although he returned to Shuifu Village with doubts because of Laoshu's words, he didn't find anything special. It was not until his birthday that he opened the wooden box left to him by his grandmother that he knew that the death of his parents was not an accident.
Outside the Water Palace, there are other realms. What does the alien realm mean? Does it refer to the world that Bai Yuehu took him to? Or somewhere else
The sky was supposed to be dark, but the dazzling rays of light illuminated half of the sky. In such a vision, the entire Shuifu Village fell into silence. It seemed that no villagers were interested in the strange scene in the sky. All the doors were closed, like dead graves.
Although he didn't know what happened, Yin Xun fell into an unspeakable fear because of his instinct. He was afraid of the rays of light, to be precise, he was afraid of what was about to overflow in the rays of light.
Lu Qingjiu was slightly better than Yin Xun. He sat next to the window and stared at Xiaguang intently. The range of Xiaguang became larger and larger, and more and more black clouds poured out of it. Then, it seemed that something approached Xiaguang and blocked the crack with its body.
Because of the backlight, Lu Qingjiu couldn't see what it was, but from the outline, it seemed to be a dragon-shaped creature.
Lu Qingjiu stared at the sky, he guessed the identity of the dragon-shaped creature... It was obviously his lazy tenant, Bai Yuehu.
Just what is he doing, and what does Xiaguang mean? Lu Qingjiu's unease was surging in his heart. He knew that Bai Yuehu's injury had not completely healed. If he fought again, would Bai Yuehu's body really be able to support it? Lu Qingjiu was very worried, but he was just a mortal, and there was very little he could do, and he even had to distract Bai Yuehu to protect him.
I don't know what Bai Yuehu did, but the glow of the sky began to dim, and the sky gradually returned to its usual calm.
As Yin Xun expected, big raindrops began to fall, pouring like a splash, forming a huge curtain that enveloped the entire world. The rain was so heavy that the big Lu Qingjiu couldn't even hear Yin Xun's whispers, and couldn't see what happened to the red glow after the dark clouds.
Yin Xun, who was huddled in the corner, suddenly straightened his waist and said, "Bai Yuehu is back."
Lu Qingjiu was surprised. He didn't expect Bai Yuehu to come back so quickly. He looked out again, and sure enough, he saw Bai Yuehu's figure in the rain curtain.
Standing outside the door, Bai Yuehu waved gently to Lu Qingjiu, as if to signal him to go out.
"Are you going out?" Yin Xun felt a little uneasy, "It seems dangerous outside..."
"It's okay." Lu Qingjiu said, "Bai Yuehu is here."
Yin Xun hesitated when he heard the words, but in the end he didn't say anything, and Lu Qingjiu pushed the door out. Lu Qingjiu actually had some truth in what he said. After all, if someone really wanted to hurt Lu Qingjiu, only Bai Yuehu could protect him.
And he is just a weak mountain god.
Seeing Lu Qingjiu go out, Yin Xun showed a wry smile.
Lu Qingjiu walked into the yard, it was still raining in the sky, but the rain fell on Lu Qingjiu but was bounced off by an invisible force, Bai Yuehu stood at the door of the yard, his black eyes drowning in the night, let him Some people can't see clearly. He saw that Lu Qingjiu's footsteps stopped in front of him, and then extended his hand to Lu Qingjiu: "Come with me."
Lu Qingjiu nodded and held Bai Yuehu's palm.
Then there was a whirlwind, Lu Qingjiu felt his body fly up with Bai Yuehu, and when Bai Yuehu stopped again, a familiar scene appeared in front of him - a huge deep pit.
This deep pit was where Bai Yuehu brought Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun to when he was telling horror stories. However, compared to before, the deep pit in front of him had undergone tremendous changes.
On the edge of the deep pit, a huge hole was knocked out, and the giant dragon trapped in it disappeared, leaving only a pool of foul-smelling silt.
"He escaped." Bai Yuehu said, "Maybe he will come to you."
"Looking for me?" Lu Qingjiu was a little shocked, "What did he come to me for? Does he want to eat me too?" Although Bai Yuehu said that this dragon did not eat his parents, this is Bai Yue after all. The words of the fox family, and if he didn't do this, why did he suffer such a cruel punishment without defending
It was still raining around, and the crackling rain obscured Bai Yuehu's voice. I don't know if it was Lu Qingjiu's illusion, but he could hear a hint of pity in Bai Yuehu's tone: "I'm just guessing like this. … after all… "
Lu Qingjiu said, "What after all?"
Bai Yuehu said, "Nothing."
Lu Qingjiu felt that Bai Yuehu was obviously hiding something from him, he said, "Yuehu, is there anything you haven't told me?"
Bai Yuehu looked back at Lu Qingjiu and admitted it frankly: "Yeah." He paused for a moment and whispered, "I don't know how to tell you."
Lu Qingjiu sighed: "This dragon is very powerful, right?" Trapped in such a pit, his eyes were dug out, but even so, he escaped from the pit.
"Naturally, it's very powerful." Bai Yuehu said, "He was trapped inside because he didn't want to come out."
Lu Qingjiu: "Don't want to?"
Bai Yuehu: "He thinks he is wrong."
Lu Qingjiu: "Wrong? He was imprisoned because he ate my parents..." He said this, a little sad, "Why did he do this." He thought of the scene of holding a funeral for his parents back then. At that time He is still in college, but he is only a half-year-old child. It was the death of his parents that made him mature quickly, but if he had a choice, he would rather not grow up like this.
Bai Yuehu hesitated, but in the end he didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand and gently pressed Lu Qingjiu's shoulder.
Lu Qingjiu said, "Does he want to eat me again now?"
Bai Yuehu: "I don't know."
Lu Qingjiu smiled bitterly: "The glow of the sky just now..."
Bai Yuehu said: "Xiaguang is just to attract my attention and give him a chance to escape." He sighed again, "If he wants to leave, there is always a way."
Lu Qingjiu lowered his eyes: "What can I do?"
Bai Yuehu: "Don't be afraid, I will definitely protect you."
Lu Qingjiu felt frustrated: "But I was supposed to protect you, wasn't it? What does this kind of protection mean? I'm just an ordinary human, and I can't even help you when you are hurt."
"No." Bai Yuehu's voice softened, "You have power you don't know."
Lu Qingjiu: "I don't know the power?"
Bai Yuehu said, "Yes." But I hope you never know, he looked at Lu Qingjiu's sad eyes, and silently added this sentence in his heart.
However, Lu Qingjiu only took Bai Yuehu's words as perfunctory comfort, smiled reluctantly, and stopped talking.
Bai Yuehu seldom communicated with people. At this time, when he saw Lu Qingjiu's forced smile, although he felt a little uncomfortable, he didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only turn his head to the end and drop a slap on the top of Lu Qingjiu's hair. A soothing kiss.
Lu Qingjiu fell into silence as he looked at the deep pit in front of him.
Bai Yuehu said: "Let's go back."
Lu Qingjiu nodded.
So Bai Yuehu brought Lu Qingjiu home again. Lu Qingjiu was very confused. He didn't say hello to Yin Xun when he got home, so he went back to his room to rest alone.
Yin Xun saw Lu Qingjiu's dejected appearance, and dared to ask Bai Yuehu what happened.
"The imprisoned dragon escaped." Bai Yuehu said calmly, "Maybe come to find Lu Qingjiu."
"What???" Yin Xun looked incredulous, "Escaped? How did you escape!" Thinking that his friend's life might be coveted by the powerful Dragon Clan, he became nervous, "Sake, Sake isn't dangerous, is it?"
Bai Yuehu: "I'm here."
Yin Xun said, "I know... but..."
"No but." Bai Yuehu interrupted Yin Xun roughly, "As long as I am alive, I will protect Lu Qingjiu for a day."
Yin Xun gritted his teeth, "But can you promise to stay by Lu Qingjiu's side forever?"
Bai Yuehu said coldly, "Why not?"
Yin Xun was dumbfounded. He could naturally see that Bai Yuehu was serious when he said this.
"It's getting late, you should go back to continue the incense." Bai Yuehu concluded their conversation.
It was still pouring rain outside. Yin Xun chose to leave. He didn't have an umbrella, and he couldn't keep the rain off, so he walked back home step by step. The village was as quiet as a grave. Yin Xun pushed open the door of his house and saw the burning candles and countless memorial tablets.
Yin Xun looked at the tablet with a smile on his face, but this smile was uglier than crying.
It rained heavily all night, as if to wash away the color of the whole world.
Lu Qingjiu sat in his bedroom, looking at the black, scarred scales. This is probably the giant dragon that was imprisoned in the deep pit, so what kind of mood did his grandma leave behind the scales
The grandfather who has never been mentioned, is it the dragon? But if so, why did he devour his own child and cause an irreparable tragedy
Lu Qingjiu couldn't understand, and no one could give him an answer.
He looked up from the window and saw only the darkness shrouded by the rain curtain. The heavy rain seemed to never stop, just like the day his parents died - the huge mountain collapsed, and human beings were so small in it that they even found The corpse has become a luxury.
Lu Qingjiu felt the tightness in his chest so he clipped the scales into his notebook and put them on his bedside table. The wooden box with the character lock was locked again, and it should only be opened on the day of the birthday. Fortunately, the contents of the wooden box have been taken out.
At least after three o'clock in the morning, the insomniac Lu Qingjiu barely fell asleep, but the quality of sleep was very poor, and he even dreamed of the imprisoned dragon.
The dragon's horn was broken, but the eyes were still there, a pair of beautiful black eyes. With a sad look in his black eyes, he stared at Lu Qingjiu, as if he was looking at someone else through him.
"Who are you?" Lu Qingjiu couldn't help asking in the dream.
The black dragon opened his mouth, revealing half of his tongue.
Lu Qingjiu said, "You... can't talk?"
The black dragon nodded.
"Why did I dream of you, are you trying to tell me something?" The dream and reality became blurred, and Lu Qingjiu couldn't even figure out whether he was awake or dreaming.
Heilong was silent, and the sadness in his eyes was even more serious. He gently rubbed Lu Qingjiu's arm with the broken dragon horn, and his movements were very light, as if he was afraid of scaring Lu Qingjiu.
Lu Qingjiu felt pain in his heart, and somehow thought of Bai Yuehu. If he guessed correctly, the prototype of Bai Yuehu should also be the black dragon in front of him. If Bai Yuehu became like this, he wouldn't even dare to go. Just thinking about it makes my chest tight.
Dragons, such arrogant creatures, how could they be willing to let them turn into the crippled appearance in front of them, they should be myths flying proudly in the sky, even in death, they should be magnificent.
"I don't understand what you want to say." Lu Qingjiu said, "I..." He wanted to say something, but everything in front of him suddenly disappeared. He woke up from the dream and saw Bai Yuehu's worried expression.
"You've had a nightmare." Bai Yuehu said.
Lu Qingjiu blinked, only to realize that he was extremely cold all over his body and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He whispered, "I dreamed of a black dragon."
Bai Yuehu looked at Lu Qingjiu quietly, without interrupting.
"His horn is broken and his tongue is gone." Lu Qingjiu said, "It looks so miserable." He wanted to tell Bai Yuehu that he was fine with a smile.
But Bai Yuehu said, "Stop laughing."
Lu Qingjiu was stunned.
"Don't laugh if you don't want to laugh." Bai Yuehu stretched out his hand and hugged Lu Qingjiu, his warm body brought warmth to Lu Qingjiu, who had froze, "It doesn't matter what expression you make."
Lu Qingjiu let out a breath and closed his eyes: "I'm a little tired."
Bai Yuehu said: "Go to sleep when you're tired, I'm here."
The two slept on the same bed, and the person beside him hugged him tightly, making him seem like a baby, in the warm amniotic fluid. Lu Qingjiu closed his eyes again and quickly fell asleep. This time, he didn't dream again, and he didn't see that black dragon with sad eyes again.
When I woke up the next morning, the rain had stopped outside, the sun was hanging in the blue sky, and it was another warm scene of spring.
The Bai Yuehu beside him disappeared, maybe he had gone to the ground to grow vegetables.
This seems to be just an ordinary morning that can no longer be ordinary. Yesterday's heavy rain and visions seemed to be just a grotesque dream.
It would be great if all that was really just a dream. Lu Qingjiu sat up and saw Yin Xun put his head in from outside the door. Yin Xun grinned at him, showing the cute tiger teeth at the corners of his mouth, with a bright smile like a flower. Sunflower chasing the sun: "Ji'er, good morning."
"Okay." Lu Qingjiu also laughed. He was infected by Yin Xun's smile. After sorting out his emotions, he quickly cheered up, "What would you like to eat?"
Yin Xun said, "Anything is fine, but I kind of want to eat beef and rice noodles."
"Then eat rice noodles." Lu Qingjiu said, "Go and pick some fresh vegetables from the field."
"Okay." Yin Xun responded with a smile.
An ordinary day begins with an ordinary morning.
The author has something to say: Bai Yuehu: Don't be sad, let's eat something delicious.
Lu Qingjiu: You can still cook
Bai Yuehu: Do you want to eat Yin Xun with cold salad
Lu Qingjiu: ... taste it
Yin Xun: Please be yourself two of you
