Ye Xiaotian went up the river, An Guowei saw his figure from a distance, and said to An Nantian: "You avoid it."
An Nantian turned his head to take a look, agreed knowingly, and quietly avoided in the forest.
Ye Xiaotian walked slowly to the hanging boulder, and saw an old man wearing a bamboo hat cross-legged fishing, with a leisurely expression, he stopped in his tracks.
But he stood there for a while, seeing that the old man hadn't caught any fish yet, he felt bored, and was about to walk away, when the old man suddenly turned around and smiled at him, "Little friend, it's true that you scolded me very frankly just now, but today you If you are happy with this mouth, you will inevitably make people suffer in the future."
Ye Xiaotian looked at the wrinkled white-bearded old man with some surprises, and said: "The old man is very good at seeing and hearing. The old man knew what just happened in the Qiyun Pavilion so quickly."
An Guowei smiled and said: "Hehe, the old man's grandson is also there. It's about the future of the younger generation. How can the old man not be more thoughtful?"
Ye Xiaotian smiled relievedly: "So that's the case, then it's no wonder. It's just that the people in the pavilion have nothing to do with my future, so I don't have to worry about it, and I don't have to be nervous, just scold me if I curse, what can they do to me?"
An Guowei chuckled, and said: "In that pavilion there is a famous Confucianist, and a Guizhou student of politics. My friend is a scholar, and a scholar has two futures, one is seeking fame and fortune, or the other is poetry. Heirloom, Cui Xiang's first words can make you notorious among scholars. Wang Xuezheng shook his head and you would never even think about stepping into the officialdom. If you offend them, you will die if you enter, and you will die if you retreat, what can you do?"
Ye Xiaotian smiled and said: "I can't advance or retreat, so I'll just go to the side."
An Guowei was stunned, and Ye Xiaotian said again: "If you can't go left or right, I'll set up a ladder to climb up, or dig a hole in the ground and drill down, can a living person be suffocated by urine?"
An Guowei laughed heartily, and said: "Interesting, interesting, you young man is very open-minded. It's just that you are a little naive."
Ye Xiaotian said: "I think it's just that you can't see through, old man."
Ye Xiaotian glanced at the fish basket next to An Guowei, and asked with a smile, "What is the old man going to use for this fish?"
An Guowei didn't know why he suddenly asked about this, and he replied casually: "A few fresh fish, but they are not too big. Going back to cook fish soup and drink a few glasses of old wine, it will be very pleasant."
Ye Xiaotian said: "Seeing that the old man has an extraordinary bearing, your mansion must be quite big. There are fish watching ponds in the larger mansions, and there are many koi in the fish watching ponds. The old man wants to drink fish soup, so why go fishing here? ?”
An Guowei felt that the young man was getting more and more interesting, so he replied with a smile: "The koi are for appreciation, how can you eat them?"
Ye Xiaotian said: "That's it. The old man has never raised the fish in this river. Today, I put bait to catch them, and they will inevitably end up in a wok. It's not inedible, but the old man raised it every day, but he refused to use it to make soup. Why
Because the fish scales are beautiful and pleasing to the eye. So, what kind of usefulness you have to others, others will treat you with that kind of treatment. If you are only useful to others, even if you show your favor by shaking your head and tail, you will inevitably end up in a wok. You have a whole body Jin Lin, the person who feeds the fish will naturally come. "
An Guowei took a deep look at Ye Xiaotian, and felt that his words were more tasteful from the outside to the inside, and there seemed to be layers of mystery in it, as if he was aspiring, and he seemed to know his identity. This is why there is such a metaphor, and I can't help feeling dark in my heart.
But what kind of person An Guowei is, even a resourceful and resourceful person like Yang Yinglong, who would call him an old fox when talking about him, An Guo's mind only lost for a moment, and then he regained his clarity. He knew that it was impossible for Ye Xiaotian to know his identity, so naturally it was impossible for him to figure out his intentions. He thought it was just Ye Xiaotian's self-confident words.
An Guowei nodded and said, "You kid, you're interesting!"
Ye Xiaotian smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "What else can the old man teach you?"
An Guowei tossed his beard and smiled, and said, "No, you can visit your scenery, and I'll catch mine."
Ye Xiaotian bowed to the ground and said, "That's it, junior farewell!"
An Guowei turned around, raised his fishing rod, and without turning back, Ye Xiaotian walked past him calmly.
An Guowei looked at the fish float gently undulating in the flowing water with a smile, and thought: "This young man is not a thing in the pond, maybe he can cultivate it well. In the future, with his identity, he may be able to make a contribution to the changes in Guizhou. To great use!"
Ye Xiaotian walked away slowly with a calm and calm look, thinking: "An old man pretending to be an outsider will appear here out of nowhere? Who in the whole Guiyang Mansion would care about me so much? Only Yingying's family! This The old man is most likely Yingying's grandfather, and today he is here to meet his grandson-in-law, hehe! I don't know if I pretended to be a wolf with a big tail just now. Seeing his smiling face, I should have passed the test... "
※※※
Yingying found Yaoyao who was having a great time with the big man and Fuwaer, and they went down the slope together to find Ye Xiaotian. Yingying was a little absent-minded along the way, although she thought that Zhan Ning'er was lying to her to make her let go, but she still listened to these words in her heart.
"Is it real or fake?"
Yingying is a girl who can't hold her breath, this question is like a thorn, deeply pierced in her heart, if she doesn't ask clearly, she might even affect her eating and sleeping. When she and Yaoyao came down the mountain, Ye Xiaotian was wandering by the river alone.
When Ye Xiaotian saw them coming, he went up to them with a smile and said, "Yaoyao, I see that you are sweating from running. I have been with the big man and Fuwaer for a long time, and even you are a bit wild. Go to the river to wash your hands. Face."
Yaoyao obediently agreed, and walked towards the river, Fu Wa'er hurriedly followed, while the big man stood aside, grinning at Ye Xiaotian.
Yingying bit her lip and said straight to the point: "Brother Xiaotian, I have something to ask you."
Ye Xiaotian said: "Hehe, I rarely see you with such a serious face, what's the matter?"
Yingying asked solemnly: "Brother Xiaotian, have you heard that there is a Gu God Sect in the Forbidden Land of Seedlings in the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains?"
Seeing Yingying's strange expression and this sudden question, Ye Xiaotian's heart skipped a beat, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared: "Yingying, you heard someone say something, didn't you?"
Yingying stubbornly said: "You answer me."
Ye Xiaotian was silent for a moment, raised his head slightly, smiled lonely at Yingying, and said softly: "That's right! I know Gu God Sect, I have been there, and somehow... I became their venerable, I don't want to do it None of them..."
Ye Xiaotian's smile was a bit bitter: "I persisted for a long time, and they didn't want to lose both, so they gave in and promised me a 20-year period, allowing me to live freely in the world for 20 years. After 20 years, they will I'm going back to the mountain to be Venerable Naluoshizigui, I don't want to go, but..."
Ye Xiaotian lowered his head slowly, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I kept this matter from you. At first, I thought you were just a peasant girl. I have been husband and wife with you for twenty years, and I will give you a fortune. You gave me children, and I owe you nothing. Later, I liked you from the bottom of my heart, not only for your beauty, but also for your frankness and liveliness. I really can't bear you... But in the end , I was too selfish."
Yingying murmured: "So it's true..."
Ye Xiaotian lowered his head in shame, and said: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. You go, I won't blame you." Ye Xiaotian turned around slowly, unable to bear to see her leave.
But after a while, Ye Xiaotian suddenly felt a soft and fragrant body gently approaching him, a pair of soft arms wrapped around his waist, and his back stiffened involuntarily.
Yingying gently pressed her cheek against his back, and said softly: "You love me, don't you?"
Ye Xiaotian nodded vigorously, and said loudly, "Yes!"
Yingying showed a sweet smile, and said softly: "I have heard the love stories of my great-grandmother since I was a child, and I am very envious. I often imagined that I was the girl living on the high snow mountain, until one day, there was her The man she likes appears in front of her, praises her for her beauty, and is willing to stay with her forever, then go with him without hesitation, no matter who he is, no matter how difficult it is to be with him, as long as each other I like it, just like a snow lotus flower that grows beside the spring in a snowy mountain. It has grown quietly for many years, just to wait for the destined person to pick it up and cherish it..."
Crystal tears slowly welled up in Yingying's eyes, and she whispered: "When I was sitting on the small bridge and you regarded me as a pear seller, our fate had already begun. When you kissed me in despair When I was with you, his heart belonged to you, you let me go now?"
Ye Xiaotian turned around inch by inch, slowly turned around, looked at Yingying in disbelief, and said ecstatically: "Yingying, you... you know that I can only be with you for twenty years, are you still willing?" Follow me?"
Yingying nodded vigorously, and said: "One day is worth twenty years with someone you like. Twenty years is not as good as one day with someone you don't like! Besides..."
Yingying's slender and long eyebrows raised like a drawn sword: "Is Gu Shenjiao amazing? Want to grab a man from me? Huh! Twenty years later, my uncles who have more than 20, more than one hundred Brothers, at least hundreds of nephews, they will be crushed to death by the crowd!"
"Yingying!"
Ye Xiaotian embraced Yingying emotionally, and said excitedly: "You are really my baby! You are the cutest girl in the world! Don't worry, I, Ye Xiaotian, am not a soft persimmon at the mercy of others. I will definitely give up on the matter of the Gu God Sect." I'll figure out a way!"
On the hillside, among the trees, a beautiful figure stands alone.
"My sister's tea,
My sister's tea contains oil and salt,
Lai Kee with oil and salt tea,
It is good to have affection and intention.
Brother's tea,
Brother's oil tea is delicious,
As long as my lover doesn't dislike me,
I have been drinking tea with my brother for sixty years. "
The low and melodious singing sounded softly in the forest on the hill, so low that only the singer himself could hear it.
"Brother Xiaotian, I have learned a song for you very hard, but unfortunately... I will never be able to sing it to you again."
Seeing the pair of figures hugging each other by the Nanming River, Zhan Ning'er left in tears.
