Master Luo Cao

Fu Yunshu realized that he was dreaming.

He was still dazed at first, and walked alone through a secluded long corridor, on which wisterias were planted, with large clusters of purple flowers hanging from the top, he pushed aside and continued walking, as if he was going deep into a field. Hazy dream.Then he stopped before a closed door.

A brass lock hung above it, blocking Fu Yunshu's way.

However, the energy of a person in a dream is always inexhaustible. He just raised his hand, exhaled, or did nothing, and the copper lock would "click" and automatically unlocked. When it fell to the ground, the vermilion-lacquered wooden door opened , Fu Yunshu lifted his foot across the threshold and walked into the room.

The room was empty, and there was nothing there—that would be wrong to say, because there was something on the wall.

That is a painting.

And Fu Yunshu finally woke up in a daze, as if he was in a dream.

Perhaps it was because of the story he had heard from brother Kou before going to bed that he had a dream at night and came to the Nuan Pavilion of the scholar surnamed Li.

There was a thick fog in the warm pavilion, and the surroundings were all white. Only the road leading to the painting was clearly visible.Even in his dream, Fu Yunshu could still hear his heart beating violently. He hesitated whether to take a closer look, but he was a little scared after all... If it was really like the story told, the one on the painting was a bird. A cannibal fox.

But on second thought, it was just a dream.

Fu Yunshu tried his best to calm down and make up his mind, let him be a monster, so what if he just took a look?As soon as this idea came up, the road leading to the scroll was instantly shortened. He only took a step, and the face of the person in the painting was already clearly visible.

After just one glance, Fu Yunshu's eyes widened in astonishment, and the corners of the person in the painting slightly raised his mouth, as if smiling at him.

When this kind of thing happened, he should have fled in fright, but why did the scholar surnamed Li willingly stay and accompany him day and night?

The moment he saw the face of the person in the painting, Fu Yunshu suddenly understood.The surrounding mist whizzed away, and the sky and the earth were empty. He stood opposite the person in the painting, stared at him for a long time, and smiled at the person, calling: "Zhao Yu."

The end of the hangover is that the next day the mind has not returned to normal, and the head begins to burst into pain. Fu Yunshu only feels that there is an iron weight tied to his head, and he almost pulls his hair off, baring his teeth He grinned and yelled a few times, before opening his eyes, his upper body was supported by an arm, and a familiar voice said: "Brother Fu, wake up."

Fu Yunshu opened his eyes, the person in front of him was Kou Luoche!He was still holding a bowl in his hand, seeing that he was awake, he brought the rim of the bowl to his mouth and said: "Drink this hangover soup."

Fu Yunshu took the bowl, obediently drank up the hangover soup, then slammed his mouth and said, "Why did you bring it here now? Why didn't you give it to me last night?" He frowned, winked and patted his forehead, "Have a headache .”

Kou Luoche laughed dumbfounded, and said: "You slept like a dead pig last night, you couldn't force your mouth to get in, so you can blame me?" Even though he said so, his hands still stretched out to his sides resignedly Gently rubbed the temples, and asked: "Is this better?"

Fu Yunshu squinted his eyes in comfort, and involuntarily tilted his head towards Kou Luoche, humming and said, "That's right, brother Kou has a bright future in this line of work."

Kou Luoche said with a smile: "Then why do you want to be a master? Why don't you show mercy and accept me as a full-time massager for you?"

The moment before his head was about to touch Kou Luoche's shoulder, the little county magistrate suddenly woke up, straightened up quickly, brushed off Kou Luoche's two hands that were pressing on his head, laughed twice, and said, "Thank you, Brother Kou, Just get here."

Kou Luoche didn't insist either, the corners of his lips were curved, he looked at Fu Yunshu playfully and said, "Is your head not hurting anymore?"

Naturally, his head still hurt, Fu Yunshu covered his forehead with one hand, and lowered his head.It's just that what is more disturbing than this is the weird and chaotic dream last night.He suddenly said, "Brother Kou."

"Huh?" Kou Luoqi asked, "What's wrong?"

"I..." Fu Yunshu lowered his eyes and said falteringly, "I had a dream last night... It's related to the story you told me."

"Oh?" Kou Luoche asked with great interest: "Is it related to the story of the fox fairy? What kind of dream is it?"

Fu Yunshu said: "I dreamed that I went to the Nuan Pavilion of the scholar surnamed Li and saw that painting."

Kou Luoche asked: "Did you see the fox fairy up there?"

The eyeballs slowly turned half a circle, Fu Yunshu suddenly smiled and said, "I see."

Kou Luoche asked: "How does it look?"

Fu Yunshu raised his head, stared quietly at Kou Luoche for a while, and said, "It's beautiful."

Kou Luoche said with a smile: "I'm afraid that you will be fascinated like that scholar surnamed Li."

Fu Yunshu smiled flatly, remained silent for a moment, and said, "Brother Kou, why do you think I have such a dream?"

"Think about it every day and dream about it at night, brother Fu." Kou Luoche approached slowly, stretched out a finger to poke Fu Yunshu's fair cheek, and said in a low voice, "Which beauty are you thinking about during the day?"

Fu Yunshu's eyes were as calm as water, and Kou Luoche looked at each other for a long time, and he said, "I'm thinking of you."

Startled for a moment, Kou Luoche couldn't help laughing, his phoenix eyes turned crescents into a smile, and the hand that poked Fu Yunshu's face moved to his forehead, flicked lightly, and said: "You will pay back when you grow up." After speaking, he stood up , straightened the folds on the clothes, and said: "If you still have a headache, lie down for a while, Aunt Li has prepared a lot for you earlier."

Fu Yunshu said: "I will accompany you to eat together."

Kou Luoche looked at him quietly for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I've already eaten."

"... Oh." With both hands twisting the quilt in the palm of his hand, Fu Yun Shumu pushed the door away with Kou Luoche's back, and then fell heavily into the soft quilt.

My head hurts even more.

Fu Yunshu bared his teeth and rubbed his temples with his hands, but no matter how he rubbed it, he couldn't do it right. Although the strength and technique were similar, the effect was very different.Boredom and bewilderment came to his heart together, and Fu Yunshu was submerged in an instant like a tide. He knocked his head on the bed board heavily, and then sighed heavily.

"What's the matter, sighing like this early in the morning." A warm palm suddenly touched the back of his head, scratched his hair lightly, and said, "I heard that people who sigh often tend to lose their hair."

Fu Yunshu immediately covered his hair, a carp jumped up and looked at Kou Luoche in surprise, "You...why are you back again?"

Kou Luoche didn't speak, but turned around and pointed at the table.Fu Yunshu leaned over and saw a basket on the table, with several plates in the basket, filled with pastries of various colors, and a porcelain pot beside the basket.While Fu Yunshu was staring at it in a daze, Kou Luozai stood up, lifted the lid of the porcelain pot, and poured it into the cup. It was fragrant and thick white syrup.Fu Yunshu sniffed and said, "Is it soy milk?"

Kou Luoche asked: "Do you like to drink sweet or salty?"

Fu Yunshu said: "Salty."

"Unfortunately," Kou Luoche walked towards him with a cup, "I only brought sweet ones." Saying that, he stuffed the cup into Fu Yunshu's hand.Fu Yunshu took it with disgust, lowered his head, took a sip, and said, "You put away the candy, why are you asking me?"

Kou Luoche said: "I don't know whether you like sweet or salty, so I brought one of the same flavor, at least half of the probability is that you like it."

Fu Yunshu said: "It's a pity that you bumped into the other half."

"It's okay," Kou Luoche said, "At least I won't make mistakes in the future."

Maybe it was the hot soy milk that made Fu Yunshu's face hot, and his earlobes turned red involuntarily. Holding the cup, he turned his head and looked aside, seeing that Kou Luoche also poured himself a cup of soy milk with a piece of sugar cake to eat, so he He said sullenly, "Haven't you eaten all of them?"

Kou Luoche said: "Don't you want to accompany me?"

Fu Yunshu lowered his head, staring at the steam in the cup, "...If you don't want to, you don't have to force yourself like this."

"If I have the cheek to go to the dining room to eat again, I'm afraid that Aunt Li will hit me with a feather duster." Kou Luoche gnawed on the sugar cake and said, "Actually, I'd rather eat it again."

The two were silent for a while, Fu Yunshu drank the soy milk silently, Kou Luoqiao finished eating the sugar cake in his hand, and took another piece for Fu Yunshu.Seeing the little county magistrate being gentle, biting the candy cake, he suddenly said, "Brother Fu."

"Huh?" Fu Yunshu held the candy cake and turned to look at him.

Kou Luoche looked at him quietly and said, "Did you really dream of me last night?"

"..." Fu Yunshu scratched his flushed face awkwardly, then nodded vigorously.

"This is troublesome." Kou Luoche said.

The warm soy milk in his hand seemed to be cooling down in an instant, and Fu Yunshu froze. His fingers holding the cup of soy milk trembled, and he said after a while, "...why?"

"If you want to reciprocate this matter, it will be troublesome." Kou Luoche's face suddenly enlarged in front of Fu Yunshu's eyes. He leaned forward, stared at him closely, and said solemnly: "I also have to dream about Brother Fu again." OK."

Fu Yunshu tightly held the cup in his hand, even his finger bones were faintly white, he choked for a long time before saying: "This is not something you can dream about..."

"I think about it every day and dream about it at night," Kou Luoche said with a smile on his lips, "I can only look at Brother Fu today and miss you over and over again."

Fu Yunshu immediately felt that he had become a boiled crab, red from head to toe, too much sugar was added in the soy milk today, he swallowed, only to feel the sweetness in his throat.Fu Yunshu coughed to cover up, and said: "Your words... Fortunately, it's just you and me right now, if others overhear..."

Kou Luoche said: "So what if it is heard by others?"

Fu Yunshu puffed up his cheeks, snorted softly to show his dissatisfaction with Kou Luoche's behavior of knowingly asking, and asked, "What do you think they will do when they hear it?"

Kou Luoche smiled and said, "They must think that I like you."
