Chapter 164 Zhou

The boring Dragon King's torture of his poor subordinates once again played a [-]% effect, at least until Qin Gentian took the initiative to leave the Dragon Palace and return to Fancun that night, he was too much teased by him just now, and he couldn't directly run amok with him in anger Jieshi all had a gloomy expression and an aggrieved look of unspeakable suffering.

And in his heart, he didn't really take those random questions that were asked before really seriously, at most, Qin Gentian, who was smiling but not smiling, just deliberately teased the serious and serious officials in front of him with those strange words.

So after he faded from the dragon form under Chishui Lake and regained his human form, as soon as he landed, he resumed his usual normal human appearance in front of Jin Suoyang and rushed step by step to the village on the mountainside.

During this process, even though he almost guessed it in his heart, at this relatively late time point in front of him, let alone Jin Suoyang, who is used to going to bed early and getting up early like an old man, even the local village does not keep the old age at all. The accustomed Yang Hua and others may have already laid down and slept early.

It's one thing to just know it in your heart, but it's another thing to go back to that special person no matter what, and it's another thing to feel a little bit at ease just looking at it from a distance in front of the window.

Thinking of this, he lowered his head and squinted his eyes, recalling the warmth in his palm that he missed so much. Qin Gentiana didn't say anything, and walked straight to the village along the snow-covered mountain road and the moonlight above his head.

Along the way, above the wild forests in Dongshan Mountain, there was a moderate amount of snow falling, and the white flowers quietly fell from the top of the head, but it did not affect the speed of Gentiana chinensis moving alone on the snowy ground too much.

But when the road happened to be close to the frozen cliff of Chishui Lake, and when he accidentally raised his eyes from the other side of the mountain, he paused his gaze strangely.

Qin Gentiana, who looked at the strange cliff not far away that seemed to have always existed, but seemed to appear suddenly, didn't take the initiative to say anything.

Immediately afterwards, the pale man who was looking behind the wild forest suddenly rolled his gray eyeballs strangely, and then lazily ticked at the apparently empty snow field behind him. Mouth.

"Where did you come from, what are you doing hiding there, get out immediately."

"..."

"Little girl, I advise you not to pretend to be deaf and dumb, but also to be a little more sensible. If you continue to follow me like this, I don't guarantee that I won't be on a whim later, and I will strip you off. I ate you alive in this snow."

"!!"

Having said that, Gentiana Qin licked his miserable white lower lip as if very 'sinister' and 'greedy', and was quite sure that the moment his voice fell, the method of stalking people was quite unsophisticated. There was also a little beast who smelled like a young girl's powder, and ran away from behind Ye Linzi, scared by himself.

Then Qin Gentian, who had something to leave in a hurry, suppressed the momentary doubts and thoughts that surfaced in his heart, and after confirming that there were no very sneaky creatures following him after the cliff, he raised his eyebrows and thought. Next time I have time, I will take a closer look and continue to lift my feet and walk forward slowly.

He didn't know that as soon as he left here, behind the wild basswood bushes beside the cliff on the other side, there really was a big gray tail carefully holding two or three withered leaves, trembling in fear. Then a pair of wet, timid little fox eyes popped out in fear and took a look at the back of the man who had gone away.

And until he was sure that Gentiana Qin, who had gone far away, could no longer hear something, there was a girl's voice who sounded quite aggrieved, and then he started talking to himself.

"Zhang Changsheng, you... a heartbroken man whose conscience was eaten by a dog... it was you who caused me to fall into this kind of crappy place... but the country people here... why are all of them so fierce and scary ... Ah ... how do I do the bad things that bad guys do the river water on the other end of time ... quietly tell them ... and ... where should I go to find you ... it's all you, it's all, it's all, it's all, it's all, it's all, it's all, it's all You, let me stay in this wretched place... I waited for so long in vain and you didn't come... You couldn't go back to your home after Chinese New Year... It's still so cold... Acho... Acho..."

The little fox girl's sobs and sneezes, which became more and more aggrieved as she talked, finally turned into a whistling north wind on the snow and dissipated the snowflakes on the mountain.

No one noticed that after the little gray fox finished speaking, it turned its head, wagged its tail, jumped into the bottom of a bright red cliff, and disappeared completely.

On the other side, Qin Longjun, who didn't know that the person he had inadvertently used to scare away just now was Zhang Changsheng's rotten peach blossom, walked in the dark all the way along the familiar dry well at the entrance of the village, and slowly approached the gnat in the night. A small wooden building at the end of the horse village.

As far as the eye can see, there is a soft winter snow at the end of the courtyard wall of my house and Fan Xi's house on the night of the New Year's Eve. There are many firecrackers and fireworks sticks left by the village children after playing on the snow, and some The dark and dirty ones also belong to the footprints left by children after trampling on them.

At the end of the road, there are a few snowmen with funny or vivid expressions, and a red radish stuck in the nose or on the head. From a distance, the round, white and fat appearance looks festive and cute, very full of the first month. There is a lively atmosphere.

However, at the beginning, he didn't notice these strange snowmen at the door. Just as Qin Gentiana bent over to the door and was about to slowly bypass the obstacles, push the door lightly and walk into his own house, he was inadvertently at the door. Among the snowmen made by the children themselves, I saw a rather out of place, and even a slightly creepy existence.

And it was almost clear at a glance that this place was placed here in the middle of the night, and it was a piece of cloth tied on the top of this ghost thing that could scare people alive. All of a sudden, his face darkened.

[Listen up to me!This is the dragon god snowman that I, Fan Abao, made for my future daughter-in-law, Yang Hua, haha!Who is not afraid of death, if he dares to reach out and touch it casually!When I wake up tomorrow morning, I will knock out all your teeth, hear you?hum! 】

Dragon God himself: "????"

It was immediately clear who this ghost thing came from.

Qin Gentian, whose face was cloudy and uncertain at the time of a shameless gangster who snatched his daughter without permission at a young age, paused for a while, and just looked at himself with a stinky face and suppressed his temper. The head at the door of the house had two red tasseled radishes carved with a knife on each of its heads, and its stout body was disgustingly lumped together like a huge and deformed earthworm...'Unknown creature', and asked himself uncertainly Answered a sentence.

This is... a dragon?This is actually a dragon?This is clearly... a... pig...

I don't know why, when he said the answer in his heart that he couldn't help but sneer, Qin Gentian always had a strange illusion that he was insulting himself.

Before he could show his distaste, Qin Longjun stood at the door of his house and enjoyed "appreciating" this ghost thing that was seriously infringing on his portrait rights, and kicked it to pieces in a childish way, so that he could live alive tomorrow morning He was mad at the bastard next door named Fan Abao, who was daydreaming daydreaming all day long.

Quite suddenly, before he had time to pay close attention to the movement behind him, he felt a slight movement at the end of his own wall, accompanied by a suspicious coughing sound.

At first, I thought it was the little thing of unknown origin that had been quietly following him in the mountains before, but after sensing the familiar and cold aura close at hand behind me, Qin Gentiana, whose back was stiff for a moment, turned strangely. turn around...

——and watched helplessly a handsome figure who was just as white as those little snowmen, who had been sitting silently in a dark corner just now, and who was so directly ignored by him, took pictures slowly Patting the snow on his knees, he looked a little hesitant and puzzled. He nervously raised one foot and glanced at the strange behavior of the 'deformed dragon'.

"What are you... doing now?"

"..."

"Do you... hate this snowman, Gentiana Qin?"

Gentiana:"……"

……

"You... just sat there all the time?"

"Ah."

"Where do these pastries come from?"

"...I bought it at the foot of the mountain, is it delicious?"

"Well...not bad."

On the night of New Year's Eve, the red moon still hangs quietly above Dongshan.

The snowflakes by the wall slowly fell on the eaves outside one by one, and they sat together under the wall with a very familiar atmosphere in Fan Xi's house. They hadn't seen each other for several days before, and the atmosphere was also quite weird at the moment. Silently holding a bag of cakes and snacks, I sat in front of the snow and looked at the moon above my head.

In the package of pastries, there are red barley barley that Dongshan people like to eat, rice wine steamed buns, and some persimmons sprinkled with sugar. They were all bought by Jin Suoyang when he was at the market at the foot of the mountain during the day. It was used to make a supper for the two who could no longer eat the New Year's Eve dinner and could only hide here and talk quietly.

And Jin Suoyang had actually been waiting at the gate of Qin Gentian's house for two or three hours before that. In the afternoon, he came back early from the county seat in the car of the old tower, and stayed in the village since then. Back and forth to help Fan Xi prepare the New Year's Eve dinner, and never went out.

He ate dinner at Fan Xi's house with clay dolls, Fan Abao and Yang Hua, although the atmosphere of the reunion dinner was not very lively with only four or five people present.

He himself is really not the kind of person who talks a lot, is eloquent, and can enliven the atmosphere, but the big guys who have gotten along well these days, reunite and have a hearty meal on this special Chinese traditional festival. The feeling of dinner seems to be good.

After dinner, he patiently helped the elderly Fan Xi to comfort Yang Hua, who was obviously angry at waiting for her father to come back today, and went upstairs to sleep.

I was going to lie down and sleep well, but after I found that I couldn't sleep because of tossing and turning, I went downstairs to sit in front of the room with a frown, and waited for the return of someone who promised to go home tonight. home.

This strange insomnia caused by someone or something after a long time made Jin Suoyang a little upset for a while, but since he came out of the house in the snow in the middle of the night and waited for someone to come back, he didn't do it anymore. Turning back to hide it, just waiting silently like a large snowman surrounded by ice and snow on the only way home from the entrance of the village.

And during this process, Jin Suoyang, who was watching the snow falling on his head in a complicated mood, didn't do any other chores to help the old people in the village to relieve boredom as usual, so that he missed the opportunity for someone to come back.

Just taking advantage of the fact that no one around him disturbed him at this moment, I took out the peculiar Miao silver bracelet that I bought at the foot of the mountain in the afternoon and wrapped it in a cloth handkerchief to have a look, then lowered my head and frowned as I recalled So he pondered for a while alone the story he had heard from the mouth of the old and gentle silversmith's wife.

"So the dragon turned back in the past... Is there any special reason?"

[Yes, it is said that the 'Longhuihui' came from the Li nationality back then. I heard that in the past, skilled silversmiths would only hit a pair of dragonhuitou in their lifetime. one. 】

"..."

[Afterwards, no matter whether they are forced to separate due to fate or they each go to different places and it is difficult to meet again, as long as the other party still carries this thing in their hands, even if they are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, they can get their sweetheart back and talk about this thing The allusions and origins, in fact, there is such a story in our local area. 】

"story?"

[It is said that there is such a legend in the Li nationality in the past. A young Li nationality from a poor family picked up a dragon that was scarred by a thunderstorm by the river in Lishan one day. The dragon's horns and scales were priceless at that time. , if killing the weak dragon in front of him can bring a lot of wealth to the young man, but the young man whose family can be said to be poor at that time did not choose to do that, but left the injured dragon and brought it back home. 】

"..."

[He washed the dragon's wounds with clean water, picked herbs from the mountains and fed them carefully until the wounds on the dragon's body gradually healed. They also forged a deep friendship during these interactions. One day, a flood broke out in the south In order to save the boy who was almost killed in the flood, the injured Long Fei flew into the sky and used magic to save many people. But because of this, the true face of the dragon was also revealed by those He saw clearly the mortals he had saved from the flood one by one, which forced him to choose to leave Lishan, and also had to leave the Li nationality boy who rescued him and took him in. 】

"..."

[This makes the two people who are deeply in love at this time and can no longer be separated very sad, but since then the fate of each side of the sky seems to be doomed, because everyone understands that the sky and rivers are the destination of the dragon. Ordinary mortals simply cannot use their own strength to change this point, and on the day they exchanged the pair of dragons left for each other and were forced to separate from each other, the dragon that returned to the Dragon Palace even made an appointment with the young man of the Li nationality. Such a reunion agreement related to a lifetime with each other. 】

"What agreement?"

[... Long said, after I parted from you, it will never rain again in the morning on the top of Mount Li, and I will leave the rain on the clouds at noon and dusk, waiting for you to come home from chopping firewood. After being drenched by the rain, rain will be given to the world, but if one day in the future, you see it raining from the sky early in the morning on the top of the mountain, this is the dragon crying on the cloud, which also means that you and I will meet again soon The day is coming, I finally came back to find you...]

……

——【And this...is the story of Long's last moment of determination to turn back for his sweetheart at the last moment when he is about to leave the world...that is, the story of the so-called Dragon Turning Back. 】
