"Congratulations," Qi Yin smiled at him, "Which is the bride from? I'll come to the door for a wedding drink another day!"
"His surname is Qi," the man said.
"It's a coincidence, it has the same surname as me." Qi Yin patted her butt and stood up, "Is the baby a relative? Where did you find it?"
The man nodded, "Wujiang."
What a coincidence, Qi Yin also lived in Wujiang when he was with his mother. This is also what the aunt told him. It is said that his mother was entangled by some unknown demon, and moved to many places. Later, the money was spent, and she came to go to the aunt. He still remembered his aunt's teasing smile when she said this, covering her mouth and saying, "I don't know what kind of luck your mother is, she will provoke some random things. Look at your aunt, I have lived so much. Age, don't talk about immortals and monsters, I haven't even seen a spirit monster."
"What's her name? I've lived here for a long time and know a lot of people. Maybe I can help you find it." Qi Yin said.
"Dog slave."
"Ah?" Qi Yin didn't understand.
"Dog slave," the man said, "his name is dog slave."
brat? Qi Yin was a little speechless, the girl's name was a bit casual.
"What does it look like, and what features do you have?" Qi Yin said, "Is there any mole on your face, and do you have any special preferences?"
The man thought about it seriously and said, "It looks cute and likes to suck my fingers."
"..." Qi Yin asked, "Do you smoke in the wild?"
The man nods.
Qi Yin stopped talking. The man didn't speak, maybe he didn't know what to say. The two looked at each other and fell into a long silence.
This is a terrible man. Qi Yin thought.
"There are not many people with the surname Qi here. There are two in the west gate and three in the east gate. You may find it if you ask." Qi Yin scratched her head and said, "Although I don't know whether to say it or not, I still talk a lot. Say something... don't tell anyone what you just said, it's not good for the reputation of the dog slave girl."
The man froze for a moment, as if he didn't understand what was wrong.
Qi Yin asked him to wait for a while, then walked into the door, took an old umbrella when he came out, handed him an old umbrella, and smiled, "I wish you the best of luck with your bride."
When Qi Yin laughed, she showed white teeth, with the vigor of a young man.
The man stared at him for a while, lowered his head to take the umbrella, and said softly, "Thank you."
The black cat jumped on the stone lion and jumped on his shoulders. One person and one cat walked into the Xiaoxiao wind and rain with umbrellas. Qi Yin remembered that man's clean black eyes, reflecting the wind, rain and water in Wutang Town, with a tranquil taste.
Guozhen is not good-looking, although he looks honest, he is actually a beast. Qi Yin shook his head.
"Hey, poor man, this old man hasn't given me anything to eat for so long." The black cat was so irritated, "The old man is hungry, Fu Lan!"
Fu Lan lowered his head and took out his purse, and poured out three copper plates in his palm, "I'm running out of money."
"You are poorer than him!"
Fu Lan ignored it and looked up into the distance. At the end of his vision stood a tall pagoda, which was the tallest pagoda in Wutang Town. He put away the green bamboo oil-paper umbrella, looked at it for a while, and disappeared instantly. There were crowds of people on the street, and roadside vendors were busy opening their flat-topped sheds. No one noticed that a man had suddenly disappeared. In the next instant, a little ink stain on the top of the tower gradually expanded, showing the appearance of a young man. Fu Lan was suspended at the top of the tower, and opened the umbrella again. The clear raindrops fell along the edge of the umbrella and fell to the distant and small houses and pavilions below.
He opened his right hand, and countless light blue little swimming fish rushed out from the palm of his hand and merged into the wind and rain. The fish swayed its tail in the wind, and through Xiaoyu's eyes, he saw the shops on Dongmen Street open one by one, the manure trucks rang the bells from house to house to collect manure water, and the farmers who bought vegetables carried load into the town. , a few drooping children are running wild in the rain... and the boy I just met, he is happily putting a snail box into the bed, there is a locked cage under the bed, and the stone egg shell inside stretches out a line crack.
"How?" the black cat asked. "Have you found the puppy?"
He lowered his eyes and shook his head silently.
"It seems that this town doesn't have one either." The black cat scratched the tip of his nose.
Fu Lan was silent for a while. He looked down at his palm and thought of the child again.
He is his little bride and also his little brother. He likes that child to call him brother, crisp and nice.
Raising his head, he saw the boy's house inadvertently. Fu Lan said, "There was a demon in that person just now."
"None of our business," said the black cat, "we are also demons, fools, and demons are our kind. Find a place to rest, and set off for the next town at night to find puppies. He is eighteen this year. Twenty years old, mortals marry at the age of weakness, we must find him as soon as possible."
Fu Lan put away her umbrella and leaned back, her black hair scattered in the wind and rain, as if she was about to fall off a tower. It was just the moment he fell, the black figure flashed, like an ink blot that quickly dissipated, and disappeared again in the blink of an eye.
When Qi Yin went back, the guest had already left, so he probably came to the house to deliver a letter. Lying on the bed, he counted his small treasury, plus the silver notes given by his grandmother, there were a total of ten taels of silver, enough for him to rent a small tile house outside and marry Feng Xian. The child is not in a hurry, anyway, he is still young, and it doesn't matter if he wants it in a few years later. He was happy in his heart, and even looked at the dilapidated attic much more pleasing to the eye. The rain gradually stopped, and I listened to the sound outside, only to find that the house was quiet, different from the past. His aunt is a loud voice. When the house is rarely clean, I don't know what medicine I took today, but it stopped.
After a while, Qi Yin got up and put on clothes to go out to buy food. When he was about to go out, his aunt leaned on the door frame and looked at him with a strange look in his eyes. When I walked to the mouth of the alley, I found that I didn't bring my purse, so I was busy and went back to get it. The house was very quiet, only the sound of people going upstairs, Qi Yin's steps were not consciously lighter.
In the upper room, the door is closed and the window is closed, and the skylight shines on the rhombus window, casting a few hazy silhouettes. Qi Yin counted, except for him and Xiaoyuan, the Yao family were all inside.
Surprisingly, he squatted under the window and listened carefully to the sound inside.
"Tell me, where did this kid get the shit luck! Dad, who has been missing for 18 years, has sent a letter again, asking him to go to Xianshan to cultivate, and send someone to pick him up tomorrow!" Extremely high, almost trembling to the sky.
Qi Yin was startled, almost screamed, and quickly covered her mouth.
"It's wrong, it's wrong, his father was killed when he was killing the demon, and it was Wufang Xianshan who took care of his father's child and asked him to go to Xianshan." My aunt sighed and said, "The poor boy, father has not yet It's gone when you see it."
"Isn't it all the same?" My aunt was so angry that her teeth were itching. "My little mountain is so talented, how come no one has come to collect it? I actually let this stupid boy take the lead!"
The heart that had just risen fell again, and Qi Yin froze in place.
Qi Yin couldn't explain how she felt in her heart, as if she was sad, but she didn't seem so sad. "Father" is still a stranger to him. Hearing a stranger die, there is no extra feeling except "Oh". It's just that there seems to be some kind of connection that is suddenly broken, like a very thin and very thin kite string, usually I don't feel like holding it behind my back, but on the day when it is broken, I suddenly feel empty, and there seems to be something missing in my heart. , leaking wind.
Did the demon die? Qi Yin looked down at his toes, he was still a hero.
"Mother, I also want to go to Xianshan." Yao Xiaoshan said.
"Hey, I want you to go too, but they said it plainly, only to pick up this kid Qi Yin." The aunt sighed and said, "Mother, what do you say?"
There was silence in the room for a while, and Qi Yin heard the clack of the old lady counting the beads, one after another, slowly.
The grandmother finally spoke up: "Xiao Yin, this child looks at Mian Shan, but he is actually very hard-hearted. When his mother died, he didn't shed a single tear, and he stood there as if nothing happened. When I was a child, I could say that I didn't know anything. But when he was eight years old, he slaughtered chickens for the first time, without blinking, he wiped the chicken's neck at once. His family was poor in his early years, and he was a terrible life. I brought it back. After raising it for so many years, I still have nothing to do. I can't pass the imperial examinations, and I can't earn any money. I wanted to give him some silver notes, let him marry a wife and start a family, and go out to work early. I didn't expect him to be like this. The good fortune." The old lady paused and said again, "It's just that you treat him so badly, if he cultivates immortality, I'm afraid he will leave and never come back."
"That's right!" Auntie shouted, "Look at my Xiaoshan, I became a scholar at only twenty, how come I don't have such luck!"
Qi Yin's heart froze inch by inch.
"Forget it, I'll give him money to marry him, which is worthy of him." The old lady said, "Well, Yu Niang, put some medicine in his food tonight, and let him sleep until tomorrow. At night you secretly Take away his eighteen sons of colored glass, lock the door and lock the window. When the fairy grows tomorrow, you can say that Xiaoshan is Qiyin. Xiaoshan is my grandson, and we will have a good life when Xiaoshan goes to Xianshan. , that Xiaoyuan is not a safe product, you can't live in peace at home, sell it as soon as possible, and you won't be upset if you don't see it."
"What does this have to do with Xiaoyuan..." Auntie said timidly.
"Shut up!" Auntie replied happily, "It's still our mother who has an idea, just do it like this!"
Qi Yin didn't listen to what they said later, he went out the door, kicked stones with a basket and walked on the road. The water on the bluestone road was gleaming, reflecting his vague shadow.
It turned out that the old lady was not not close to people, she just simply didn't like him. It turned out that he was not lost when he was a child, it was the old lady who wanted to lose him. That's right, why don't you go to a market two miles away to buy food? It's not that the food there is better, it's that they are afraid that he will find it himself. She looked at him with indifference and indifference.
That's right, he's not his grandson, so why should he be treated well
In fact, it doesn't matter whether he goes to Xianshan or not. He has long passed the age when he heard that the scholar said that the sword immortal subdues demons and subdues demons. When he was a child, his heart of showing off with the eighteen sons of Liuli was buried in the past years. The ordinary people are used to their lives, and becoming immortal and becoming a Taoist is far away from him. He can't imagine what it is like, and he can't give birth to much envy and expectation.
As for his father, he hadn't met him anyway, and he never thought of him when he was alive, so why did he rush to put on sackcloth and filial piety for that man, smashing tiles and holding spirits
He raised his head, the sun shines on his face through the horse head wall, slightly dazzling. He actually wanted very little, a grandmother who gave him silver money to marry, a virtuous and virtuous daughter-in-law, that was enough. Now that his grandmother was gone, he kicked out a pebble at his feet, and the pebble rolled down the steps of the pharmacy opposite. He saw Feng Xian standing behind the counter weighing herbs.
Forget it, there is a daughter-in-law anyway. He twitched the corners of his mouth and leaned against the wall.
He didn't want to go home and wandered outside until the sun went down. The sunlight of egg yolk spreads to the wall, and the shadow of the tallow tree is reflected on the wall, lonely and thin.
He unconsciously walked to the opposite side of the pharmacy again, his eyes swept away, and a familiar figure in black came into view. The man I met in the early morning was standing beside the notice board, the black cat was squatting beside him, and the wanted notice of the demon head Fulan was posted across from them. The man watched quietly, with no expression on his face, no sadness or joy. From Qi Yin's point of view, his black silhouette resembles a black bamboo, standing quietly in the setting sun.
Qi Yin walked over and greeted the man.
The man turned his head to look at him and nodded in response. This man doesn't seem to be very talkative, quietly like an ancient mirror.
Fu Lan's big head is drawn on the wanted notice. He is a pig demon with long hair on his head, two eyes as big as copper bells, and two long fangs sticking out from under his nose. Fu Lan's wanted notice has been posted for a long time. Today, she was soaked in the rain and soaked through the rain. The ink on Fu Lan's mouth was stained, as if she had drank a mouth full of blood.
More than ten years ago, the infighting of the demons hurt a lot of vitality. They huddled in a remote corner of the southern border of Bashu, and the Quartet was very peaceful for a while. However, a big demon, Fulan, popped out of this group of demons. Last year, he swept Jiu Gai and killed the previous demon king. Because of him, the demons stopped fighting and stopped fighting, and the demons regarded him as the co-owner of the demons, so they were prestige. Fulan has great ambitions and has repeatedly disturbed the human world. A few days ago, there was news that the village at the border between the human world and the southern border had been massacred.
There is a military advisor beside him who is the most cunning. Fu Lan can swept away Jiu Gai. This person is very important. He seems to be called Yu Sang, and it is estimated that he looks strange. Demons are like this.
"Fulan, stop! Today, the Sword Immortal Japan is going to do justice for the sky and cut off your pig's head!" A group of children rushed past the two of them, and the two of them looked over at each other. The boy pointed at the wooden sword.
"Hmph, I'm not afraid of you! My military advisor Yu Sang will protect me!" The child patted his dog, "Military advisor, come on!"
The local dog barked and barked at the other children, and everyone dispersed.
Black Cat: "… "
Qi Yin smiled and said, "Children love to play like this. I also played Fu Lan when I was a child."
It's just that he was forced to pretend by his classmates, and finally he was beaten with bruises and bruises by the "Jianxian".
The man did not speak.
"Have you found your daughter-in-law?" Qi Yin asked.
He shook his head silently.
Qi Yin probably had some idea in his heart. In fact, this kind of doll is very unreliable, and most of them have to blow it. Because once the status of the men and women is not equal, one party must want to regret the marriage. This guy brought a cat by himself and wore very ordinary ramie cloth, not like a rich man. The woman moved, probably to hide from him.
Alas, although he is a beast, he is also a miserable man like him. Qi Yin's heart was filled with melancholy of the same illness.
"Relax, in fact, my daughter-in-law doesn't want her family to be as high as her family, as long as she is virtuous and virtuous." Qi Yin pointed at the pharmacy, "I saw that girl, her name is Feng Xian, her father and mother farm, and there are two others. I have a younger brother and a younger sister, the family is poor, but the girls are nice, gentle and gentle, and don’t get angry with anyone. I plan to pick an auspicious day to propose marriage, and the dowry is already ready.” Qi Yin patted the man on the shoulder, Express consolation.
Fu Lan looked in the direction of the pharmacy and said, "Oh, is that the woman who kissed someone else?"
Qi Yin was stunned for a moment, then raised her head, just as she saw Feng Xian hiding from her boss's mouth, she turned her head and smirked. It was only then that he realized that Feng Xian's attire had changed, her hair was combed high, it was a woman's hairstyle, the inferior jade hairpins of the past were replaced by golden hairpins, and the tassel hung down and flickered in her ear. Shaking in a flash.
As if something was collapsing silently in his heart, Qi Yin stayed where he was.
Fu Lan remembered that Qi Yin had congratulated him this morning, and was considering whether to say something. He is not very good at speaking, and he only made a little progress after learning from the black cat for a long time.
"Congratulations," Fu Lan finally said, "I will also come to the door for a wedding wine another day."
