his brother

His brother was clearly that fat fat Yao Xiaoshan, and he provoked the hooligans on the street to drag him into a fight. The two of them had bruised nose and face together, but he was always punished by his aunt to kneel under the patio, and the guy was lying on the bed groaning and screaming in pain. How did it become Fulan? Qi Yin watched Fu Lan enter the door, and her aunt and uncle took the account book he brought back to look at it. The young man stood in the room, with a cold and white profile and a silent look, it was Fu Lan.

A black cat walked around to Qi Yin's feet, Qi Yin's eyes lit up, she picked it up, and whispered, "Master Cat."

The black cat ignored him and licked the fur on his body.

With a bang, a cup of tea hit Fu Lan's forehead, and the tea dripped onto his head. Qi Yin shivered in fright, stretched her head to look inside the room, and saw her aunt pointing at Fu Lan, her fingers trembling with anger, "I'm missing you! There's only so much money at home, let you take some out to do business, Give me everything! I owe you a debt in my previous life, and raising a loser like you, I will pay my debt in this life!"

The title of money-losing goods was originally his exclusive, but now it has become his brother. Qi Yin was a little ashamed.

"Forget it, let's take it as a lesson." My aunt smoothed things out.

"Buy a lesson for 300 taels, the lesson of daring is gold!" Auntie tapped Fu Lan's forehead and scolded, "If I knew earlier that I was a fool, I should have killed you when you were born! Look at Xiao Yin. , smart and shrewd, more worry-free. No matter how many matchmakers come to be matchmakers, girls all over the street want to marry into our family. Look at you again! I think the stupid aunt who begs for food across the street is a good match for you, you two make a pair Got it."

Girls all over the street? Qi Yin couldn't believe it. In the past, he was sluggish, and he was under the fence. The maid and the little girl who washed dishes in the back of the restaurant didn't look down on him.

"I have someone I like." Fu Lan said.

"Which girl is that?" Auntie said, "What's the use of your liking, it's strange that people want to marry you as a fool!"

Fu Lan lowered her eyes and said, "I like Xiao Yin."

Well, this must be the idiot who didn't run away. Qi Yin squatted under the eaves and sighed. With Fu Lan in Qi Yin's heart, he felt at ease, as if there was a needle in the bottom of his heart, he was not afraid of the waves.

The aunt hated that iron was not steel, and said: "You are really stupid when you say that you are stupid! Who told you that you are not a baby girl, Xiaoyin is a good one, and she will never dislike your incompetence. When you marry Xiaoyin, you will spend the rest of your life. With someone to rely on, why should I worry about you so much!"

"If you can't marry, you can." Fu Lan said.

The aunt was so angry that her eyes darkened, and she almost didn't succumb to it, "You are deliberately trying to piss me off, don't you? Go, kneel there for me, and don't get up until noon!"

My aunt helped my aunt into the room to rest. Fu Lan was kneeling upright at the bottom of the patio, and the sunlight shone on his tall and thin shadow, like an independent ink bamboo. He has always been like that. When he is alone, he seems to be independent from the dust, and everything in the world has nothing to do with him.

Qi Yin stretched his head to see that there was no one in the courtyard. He quietly rubbed against Fu Lan's side, and while helping Fu Lan wipe his face, he whispered, "Where did you go last night? You will be invisible as soon as I turn around. Now, I thought the monster took your fancy and kidnapped you. What should we do now, where are we? Do you have any mistakes?"

Fu Lan said nothing, lowered his head and took out a handkerchief cake from his arms and placed it in Qi Yin's palm.

"What's this?"

"Jinling's plum cake." Fu Lan said.

Qi Yin took a bite, and still had a little warm, sweet taste, which he liked. While eating, Qi Yin said: "Actually, I have some ideas. I think we are in a fantasy world. The people here are all my old friends, but it's very strange. My cousin was Yao Xiaoshan. Now It’s become you. My aunt didn’t like me at first, but now it’s as good as my own son. Apart from these, everything at home is exactly the same as I remember.”

Feeding some more pieces of cake for the black cat to eat, Qi Yin clapped her hands and said, "Illusion comes from the heart, I think the key to cracking this illusion is probably me. What do you think?"

Fu Lan looked at him, blank eyes in his black eyes, as if he didn't know what he was talking about.

Qi Yin suddenly felt that something was wrong. Fu Lan and he went down the mountain together, and disappeared as soon as he turned his head. Plum blossom cakes are only available in Jinling. From Wutang to Jinling, Yu Jian said that it would take an hour. Could it be that this guy somehow went to Nanjing to buy plum cake for him? Qi Yin felt uneasy and asked, "Brother, are you Fu Lan?"

Fu Lan nodded.

Qi Yin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. Where the hell did you go last night?"

"Go home from Jinling." Fu Lan said, "Mother told you that you are awake."

mother? He actually called his aunt "Mother"

"..." Qi Yin looked at him in disbelief, "What's your first name, even your first name?"

Fulan replied, "Yao Fulan."

Done. Qi Yin grabbed her face and wailed in her heart. It turned out that this Fulan was also fake. The real Fulan didn't know where to go, and most likely she was trapped in another illusion. Qi Yin hurriedly picked up the black cat and shook it vigorously, "Master Cat, if you say something, you won't be fake, will you?"

The black cat was meowing and waving its paws in the air. This is a real fat cat with a big face, not a demon.

It turned out that in this fantasy, he was really alone.

Qi Yin was a little discouraged, looked up at Fu Lan, the guy looked down at him, looking ignorant.

"Forget it," Qi Yin scratched her hair vigorously and said with her head drooping, "Brother, accompany me to a place."

Fu Lan hesitated for a while, and then he had to kneel.

"I can feel at ease when I see you." Qi Yin tugged at his sleeve, "Come with me, brother."

Fu Lan looked down at the fingers that Qi Yin was pulling on his sleeve, and that inch of fingertips perched on the sky, as if they were transparent. Fu Lan nodded and said, "Okay."

The sun fell from the horse head wall, and the yellow leaves fluttered like dead butterflies. Qi Yin stood across the street and looked at Feng Xian, she was still the same as before, with black crow's hair, the inferior jade hairpin was a little green and yellow, showing through crow's black bun, like a flower in her hair. Their women are like this, to be strong, and to be dazzling in the dust. Unlike him, it doesn't matter if he accepts his fate and rolls in the mud.

Feng Xian is not married, so this has also changed. He deliberately wandered into the pharmacy, Feng Xian pursed his lips and smiled, quietly pointed to the back alley. Qi Yin clicked her tongue secretly, this illusion is really exciting, Feng Xian is really interested in him.

Go out the door, turn to the back alley, and let Fu Lan guard the alley. Feng Xian stood there, and when he saw him coming, he pouted and hit him on the chest, "My friend, I haven't seen you for three months, I thought you were really dead. They all said that you forgot something, did you leave me behind? already?"

Qi Yin was a little embarrassed, took a few steps back, and said, "I really forgot a lot of things, that..." Qi Yin scratched the back of his head and tentatively said, "Have we had friendship before? I don't seem to remember much. clear."

Feng Xian glared, "Have you forgotten our oath?" Her eyes were red, and she raised her hand to grab the flesh on Qi Yin's arm, "You dare to forget! You dare to forget! Marry me as a concubine, but I just didn’t agree. I stayed up every day waiting for you to wake up. I was looking forward to it during the day and at night. I didn’t dare to go to your house to see it, so I could only go to the Niangniang Temple to ask for your safety. …”

Qi Yin was in pain from being pulled by her, but she couldn't cry out. This girl looked gentle, but she didn't expect that she belonged to a dominatrix. Qi Yin shrank her arms and said hurriedly, "Don't dare to forget, don't dare to forget, let go first!"

Feng Xian bit her lip and said, "If I don't give you a bit of ruthlessness, you will be bullied by me. I am a big girl, and I have given you my whole heart. If we get out of the way, you won't do it. Marry if you want!" Feng Xian gritted her teeth, suddenly unbuttoned her belt, pulled her clothes, revealing her round and tender breasts, and slammed into Qi Yin's arms.

Qi Yin had lived for so many years, the first time he saw this battle, he was stunned. Someone grabbed his back collar. This man was very powerful. He was pulled back and fell into the arms of the person behind him. After the rain, the smell of the mountains enveloped him, and when Fu Lan kicked her leg, she kicked Fengxian into the bamboo baskets piled up by the wall.

Fu Lan grabbed his wrist, turned his head and ran away. The two ran to the edge of the river and jumped into a awning boat. Qi Yin picked up the bamboo pole and propped it up, and the boat swung into the heart of the wave. Turning his head to look, he could no longer see Feng Xian's shadow. Qi Yin had lingering fears, this world is definitely going crazy, Feng Xian didn't even want the name of the girl's family in order to marry her.

The Wu Peng boat passed the culvert and swayed forward. Jia'an has blue tiles and white walls, and women who make clothes squat on the waterfront steps to beat their clothes. The old kraft paper red lanterns are reflected in the clear water, like a red sun. Suddenly a package was thrown into Qi Yin's boat, Qi Yin picked it up, it was a water chestnut in a net pocket, looked up, a girl pursed her lips and smiled, "Qi Xiaolang, I heard that you are cured, come together when you have time. Pick the water chestnut!"

Qi Yin scratched his head shyly and agreed.

"Mr. Qi, look here!" Some more melons and fruits were thrown into the Wu Peng boat, and the girls on the river bank gathered together and waved to him. The boat was only a few steps away, and the Wu Peng boat was almost full. It was the first time that Qi Yin was so popular, and she was a little flattered. She turned to see Fu Lan standing at the stern of the boat, silent like a transparent person.

He grabbed Fu Lan's neck and shouted at the girl on the shore: "Hey! Sisters, who do you think is more handsome than this young master!"

"Of course it's you, Qi Xiaolang-Jun," the girls shouted, "Jianmei, star-eyed, suave, we like you just like that!"

Qi Yin squeezed Fu Lan's face with both hands, "Look at this thin skin and tender meat, do you really not like it?"

"I don't like it!" the girls shouted, "We just like Hei Zai!"

Qi Yin: "..."

Black you uncle.

Qi Yin was speechless. It used to be a little white face, and a sissy style prevailed, but now they have turned over as a salted fish.

The boat left the river and entered the Wujiang River. The girls looked as if they had eaten aphrodisiacs and watched him go away with their faces flushed. Qi Yin didn't feel happy, and she shivered with goose bumps. When she turned her head, she found that she was still pinching Fu Lan's face. Qi Yin's hands trembled, and he hurriedly let go.

"I also think you are more handsome." Fu Lan whispered.

"Dude," Qi Yin said helplessly, "Do you think I'm more handsome even if I have a pockmarked face?"

Turning his head, he saw the Wujiang River in front of him. The section in their town was called Wujiang River. It went straight forward, merged into the Yinghe River, then merged into the Yangtze River, and finally ran into the vast sea. The water was gray, the spray and foam were white, and the sky and the heart of the river were the same color. In the distance, the white walls and black tiles are scattered all over the place, like pebbles thrown down in the mountains.

Qi Yin remembered how Feng Xian had been pestering him earlier, and the girls, and said with a little headache: "Feng Xian has also changed. She was married to her boss, that old man, have you seen him? The family is rich, and there are five shops in the largest street in the town. They are all owned by him. Every month they collect rent and they are soft. I used to think that Feng Xian liked me, but in fact, other than 'three packs of medicine', Nothing else was said other than the words "A total of one penny"."

Fu Lan's face was full of confusion, as if she didn't understand.

Qi Yin lowered her head and smiled, and said, "Now that I think about it, Feng Xian probably doesn't even know my name. Brother, do you know why I know this place is fake? Obviously everyone made it clear, My head was hit by a carriage, and I was lying at home for three months. Nine-headed strange birds, cultivators, and so on are all nonsense in my dreams. But why, I know this is an illusion?"

"Why?" Fu Lan asked.

He squatted down with his head down and touched the cold river water. There was a clear sadness on the boy's face in the water. He said, "Because here, my aunt likes me, my aunt likes me, my grandmother likes me, Feng Xian likes me too, and everyone likes me."

In the East, there are dream tapirs, weaving dreams, and strange fragrances. The Qing style was taught in the demon catching class, and Qi Yin took every class seriously and remembered it clearly. Lan Xian has a blurred orchid fragrance on her body. Every time he sees her, he follows a demon. He used to think that he was jealous, but now he thinks that the fragrance is a bit evil. Coupled with this dream that seemed to be both real and illusory, Qi Yin only now realized that the girl who looked like a white velvet flower turned out to be a demon.

Only God can see the demonic energy, and Fu Lan is honest, because he always sees things that are indecent, so he doesn't let his spiritual sense out on weekdays. The Taoist priests like Feng Huanshan are half-hearted, and this monster has walked up and down the mountain in such a grand manner for so long. Qi Yin thought gloomily, it is one of the Four Great Immortal Mountains, this Thief Mountain is probably not as good as the third-rate Immortal Sect.

He remembered that the old fat man in the Qing style said that the dream tapir is difficult to deal with, and those who are deeper in Taoism can weave thousands of acres of dreams, and it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false while living in it.

He raised his eyes and looked at the gray water, which stretched to the horizon without end.

But he knows very well that everyone here likes him, so this must be fake, a dream, his dream.

"Don't you like this?" Fu Lan asked softly.

"I like it," Qi Yin shook his head, "I'm not stupid, everyone likes me, why not. When I was a child, I used to think that I was the reincarnation of a great god, and when the thunder struck me a few times every day, I suddenly had an epiphany and thought of it. I am the precious son of Fuxi Nuwa. I come to this world and go through a calamity. These sufferings and hardships will end one day, and I will return to the sky to live a good life. So I have golden light on my head, auspicious clouds under my feet, flying in the sky. And go.

But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that when my aunt and the others saw me, they turned out to be gods. They cried bitterly and apologized in front of me. It is worshipped in the main room, and three sticks of incense are offered every day. Then I smiled especially fakely and said forget it, forget it, I never cared about it, you are still my aunt or my aunt, I will keep you rich and live a long life. So I ascended to immortal and left a story on the ground. "

"But you didn't dream of becoming an immortal." Fu Lan said.

"Yeah," Qi Yin let out a long sigh, "Later I grew up, and suddenly I understood, what's the use of being an immortal, auntie and the others worship God because of their desires, who would like muddy things? I just "..." Qi Yin put on his sleeves, the wind got into his clothes, and it was refreshingly cool, "I just sometimes, very occasionally, can't help but think, if only I were the son of my aunt and aunt, and that's the case. , they will like me."

Jiang Feng blew quietly, and both of them were silent.

"Xiao Yin," Fu Lan said suddenly, "I'm very stupid, I don't understand many things you think. Your liking is conditional, your son likes it, not your son doesn't like it. Your liking has a time limit, in the past I like it, I don’t like it now, or I didn’t like it before, but I like it now. But my liking has no conditions, no time limit, I like Xiaoyin, no matter who you are, whether it is in the past, present or future, I like it.”

Qi Yin was stunned.

At that moment, it was as if the sky was shining, and the gray world suddenly took on color.

Fu Lan stared at him intently and earnestly, those black eyes were as quiet and peaceful as ever, as if thousands of wind and rain could not disturb his quiet eyes. Qi Yin suddenly felt that these eyes were so familiar, as if in the depths of his memory, in the drizzle in the south of the Yangtze River, in the white snow in the countryside, there were the same pair of eyes that once stared at him.

For the first time, he couldn't tell whether this was an illusory dream or a reality that could be touched.

He shrugged the tip of his nose, restrained the slippery ache in his nose, and gave a charming smile, "Brother, let's go home."
