Life is as short as a spring dream

Chapter 4 Flowers are all over Zhu, wine is full of Ou

This rainy night reminded Huamanzhu of three years ago.At that time, he followed his little senior brother down Mount Ji, and there were many rivers and lakes. They wanted revenge wholeheartedly, but they had no clue.Later, Ren Pingsheng inquired about Yunshui Tower, and heard that it was a place that could solve all the mysteries in the world, but the price was often too high for people to pay.

The two teenagers rushed to Yunshuilou on a starry night. On the way, they once hid from the rain in a ruined temple just like tonight.That night, Ren Pingsheng took Hua Manzhu's hand, knelt in front of the dusty Bodhisattva and swore that no matter what the price was, he would find out the truth and avenge Jishan's family.

Hua Manzhu still remembers the day when they finally entered the gate of Yunshui Tower.The host, Du Yu, who seemed to be in control of the world, looked at the two of them from above.

The price Du Yu wanted them to pay was to belong to Yunshui downstairs.Killers, spies, and even thieves, no matter what Yunshuilou wants to do, they must obey.

Ren Pingsheng agreed without hesitation.Hua Manzhu held Ren Pingsheng's hand tightly, the young man who always relied on his junior brother for advice in everything, this time, he still followed him.

But Du Yu didn't give them an answer immediately.According to the rules of Yunshui Building, only after completing the tasks can they exchange for information.

"The clouds disperse and the bright moon shines in the sky, and the bright pearl appears when the water dries up." The couplet on the gate of Yunshui Building has since become the greatest hope in the hearts of Ren Pingsheng and Hua Manzhu.

Before falling asleep, Hua Manzhu gently held Ren Pingsheng's hand.His little brother also held his hand gently.In this world, the two of them are each other's only relatives.

The task this time is relatively easy, but it is to go to Hangzhou to take a life.Three years have passed, and Ren Pingsheng is no longer the flying young man who, despite his high martial arts skills, never got blood on the tip of his sword.He didn't know how many people he had killed, and he didn't know when Du Yu would give them news, but other than that, he had nowhere to go.Only Hua Manzhu, under Ren Pingsheng's insistence, never took a human life.

However, Lian Renpingsheng knew in his heart that no matter how much he protected Hua Manzhu, he would never be that silly little junior on Mount Ji again.

Grown up and wiser.Except for Ren Pingsheng, Hua Manzhu will no longer be defenseless against others; no matter how kind-hearted his mind is, his mind will often produce twists and turns of calculations.They obeyed Yunshuilou for revenge, so apart from hatred and Yunshuilou's orders, good and evil in the world seemed to have nothing to do with them.

It was early winter when we returned to Yunshui Building, and the weather was getting colder and colder.Hua Manzhu kicked the quilt in the middle of the night and caught a cold, sneezing all the way.While Ren Pingsheng called him a pig, he wrapped him in a cloak.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard gate, a bright yellow figure jumped out of the room, accompanied by an extremely cheerful shout: "Xiao Zhu! Xiao Zhu!"

Ren Pingsheng's face darkened suddenly.

Hua Manzhu was very helpless, and was about to comfort Ren Pingsheng when he sneezed again.

After such a short time, Ou Ying had already jumped in front of Hua Manzhu, and was taken aback when he saw him wrapped up like a rice dumpling.

"Xiaozhu, are you sick?"

Hua Manzhu was busy wiping his nose before replying, Ren Pingsheng had already pushed Ou Ying aside politely, "Don't get in the way! Why are you here again!"

"I'm here to see Xiaozhu. I heard that you have come back these two days, and I have been waiting for a long time!" Ou Ying was not affected at all, and followed behind with a smile on her face.

"Look at what he does!" Ren Pingsheng was so tired of this girl, "Why are you doing nothing all day long!"

Ouying nodded cheerfully.

"..." Ren Pingsheng was speechless, "I'll go find Du Yu in a while, he must be short of people."

Ouying sat down on the chair, shaking her feet happily: "It's useless to find him, he won't give me work, I'd better play with Xiaozhu, right Xiaozhu?"

"He doesn't need you to accompany him!" Ren Pingsheng glared at him.

Hua Manzhu didn't say a word, Ouying and Ren Pingsheng were about to fight.After another sneeze, Hua Manzhu finally whispered, "Yingying, go back first, don't catch the cold from me."

Ren Pingsheng's face was even darker, but Ouying rushed forward with great vigor: "Don't be afraid, you are so worried about me, of course I will take care of you!" She tilted her head and thought, and finally turned around to leave, "Xiao Zhu Just wait, I'll go find the old man and give you the medicine to cure the cold!"

"My senior brother has..." Before Hua Manzhu finished speaking, Ou Ying's figure had disappeared.

However, the Buddha finally left.Hua Manzhu looked at Ren Pingsheng tremblingly, and sure enough, he looked ready for a storm.

Ren Pingsheng frowned: "Reluctance?"

Hua Manzhu quickly shook his head.

"Afraid that she will catch the cold?" Ren Ping came over with a smile on his face, pinched Hua Manzhu's nose, "I'm with you every day, why don't I see you worried?"

Hua Manzhu didn't dare to answer "Brother is in great health" and could only let him hold his nose and scold.When Ren Pingsheng lost his temper, the tip of his nose was as red as a pepper.Ren Pingsheng snorted coldly, shook his hands and went back to the house.

Hua Manzhu was really wronged, senior brother and Ou Ying were not at odds, and every time he saw Ou Ying, he would get angry, but Ou Ying always wanted to come to him, and ran away after getting into trouble, leaving Hua Manzhu alone to bear Ren Pingsheng's anger.

After thinking about it, Hua Manzhu went to the kitchen to get something to eat, and then entered the house to apologize to Ren Pingsheng, although he didn't know what the hell this crime had to do with him.

Ren Pingsheng was still the same, lying on the couch with his hands on his pillow, eyes closed and speechless.Hua Manzhu wanted to approach him quietly with food, but he couldn't hold back a sneeze and sprayed it all on the plate.

Seeing Ren Pingsheng's disgusted eyes, Hua Manzhu had no choice but to throw the plate of snacks aside, and squatted in front of the couch to beat Ren Pingsheng's legs.

"Brother, don't be angry, I'll make you something delicious tonight."

"Don't eat."

"...Can I make braised pork?"

"not good."

"Brother, don't be angry..."

Ren Pingsheng simply ignored him.Hua Manzhu lowered his head and complained softly: "I didn't ask her to come to me..."

Before he finished speaking, Ren Pingsheng stretched his legs to avoid his hand, and simply turned over to face out of the window.

Hua Manzhu was stunned for a moment, and had no choice but to climb onto the couch and kneel halfway, desperately trying to pinch Ren Pingsheng's shoulders and neck.

After pinching twice, Ren Pingsheng turned over and stared at him with a frown: "Why are your hands so cold?"

"Uh..." Hua Manzhu put his hand on his face, as if it was a little cold, "Then I'll cover it for a while and give you a massage."

"Shut up." Ren Pingsheng exerted all his strength, and Hua Manzhu fell into his arms. Ren Pingsheng pulled a blanket over his body, tucked it in again, and asked, "Have you taken the medicine?"

"Eat." Hua Manzhu laughed.

"What are you laughing at, eat and sleep for a while, what a pig."

"Okay." Hua Manzhu turned to face Ren Pingsheng's chest, feeling that the quilt in early winter really warmed his heart.

After Huamanzhu fell asleep, Ouying came again with a pile of medicinal materials, but Ren Pingsheng kicked her out before she could say a word, and grinned her teeth angrily when she left.

The next day, Ren Pingsheng went to see Du Yu alone.The mysterious landlord is drinking tea leisurely in the house.

"Hey," Ren Pingsheng served a cup of tea unceremoniously, "Can you just stop your precious niece, who is flying around like a fly in front of my eyes all day long."

Du Yu's old god is here: "You are passionate, Yingying is going to see Xiaozhu, what has it to do with you?"

"Who said Huamanzhu is willing to see her?"

Du Yu clicked his tongue and put down his teacup: "You really care more than I do. Everyone in the Yunshui Tower doesn't know that Yingying has already said that she wants to marry Xiaozhu."

Ren Pingsheng also put the teacup on the table: "I am his elder brother, and his elder brother is like a father. If he wants to get married, he has to listen to me. Ou Ying has no chance!"

Du Yu looked at him with disgust: "The two children are in love with each other, what's the matter with you, a villain, blocking you here?"

"Hey hey," Ren Pingsheng knocked on the table impatiently, "What kind of mandarin ducks are messed up, my junior brother has no interest in your wild girls at all." Before Du Yu could refute, Ren Pingsheng continued, "You Speaking of you, why are you an uncle? Girls don't know how to be reserved at all, and they will definitely not be able to marry in the future."

Du Yu snorted: "I can't control her, if you want to occupy your little brother, you can find a way to do it yourself."

Ren Pingsheng was taken aback for a moment, always feeling that Du Yu seemed to have something in his words, and that half-smile face was particularly hateful.

"Master, don't talk nonsense with you, the next task."

"Next," Du Yu poured another cup of tea, "Not yet, let's rest."

Ren Pingsheng squinted at him.

"Yingying said, it doesn't matter if you work, but you always have to take Hua Manzhu with you. She is afraid that her sweetheart will be tired, so she insists on forcing me to give you two a vacation."

Ren Pingsheng got up and left.

"Do you still know how to be polite? An didn't even invite one?" Du Yu blew his beard and stared.

"Go to the side." Ren Pingsheng didn't bother to talk to him.Du Yu, who is in his 30s, is in charge of the entire Yunshui Building. He seems to be unpredictable, but in fact he is very serious.However, he and Ren Pingsheng have one thing in common, they are especially afraid of Ou Ying.Oh no, Ren Pingsheng is not afraid of her, but annoying her.

I heard that Ou Ying is his sister's child, but his sister has never appeared, and no one knows who she is.Three years ago when Ouying saw Huamanzhu for the first time, she couldn't look away like a bandit seeing Bao, and she made up her mind to marry him from then on.It's fine that Hua Manzhu can't avoid her, but also because she is treated coldly by Ren Pingsheng, it's really miserable.

Therefore, when Ren Pingsheng returned to the yard and found that Ou Ying was pestering Hua Manzhu to practice light kung fu with her, the coldness all over his body almost made Hua Manzhu shiver, so he hurriedly asked Ou Ying to take a rest on the grounds that the wind chill had not healed. Win back.

But Ouying is not so easy to pass: "It's okay, I will make medicine for you when you rest, and I will relieve your boredom when you wake up. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Today I will be here with you!"

Ren Pingsheng snorted coldly and closed the door with a bang.

"Yingying," Hua Manzhu said with a sad face, "stop making trouble, my senior brother will be angry."

Ou Ying raised her brows: "What's so angry about him! A gentleman, a lady is so cute. I just like being with you, so what's the matter with him?"

Hua Manzhu blushed a little again, but Ouying always spoke without any scruples, and he was used to it, so he had no choice but to reply: "Don't talk nonsense, although you are young, you are still a girl, you can't always be like this."

Ou Ying's eyes were full of light: "It's not young, if you agree, we can get married this year!"

Rao Huamanzhu was already used to Ouying's boldness and boldness, and his face was almost cooked at this moment, so he could only wave his hands in a panic, hesitating and hawing, not knowing what to say.

Ou Ying saw that Hua Manzhu was about to refuse, her mouth was quickly flattened, and she was about to cry.

Hua Manzhu was very helpless: "Yingying, stop messing with me..."

"Who's messing with you!" Ou Ying said loudly, crying, "I know, that senior brother of yours doesn't agree! He's playing a mandarin duck, a bad guy!"

Hua Manzhu's complexion also sank, and he said seriously: "My senior brother is not a bad person, so don't say that about him!"

Ou Ying shrank her neck, and the little girl couldn't stop crying when she felt wronged, and ran out crying as soon as she stomped her feet.

Hua Manzhu sighed, at this time he didn't dare to light Ren Pingsheng's gunpowder keg, so he could only go back to his room alone, the warmth of yesterday's bed was out of reach, and he suddenly felt infinitely desolate.
