Taoyuan Village is a fishing village. Fishermen make a living by fishing, and fishing depends on the weather. Therefore, Taoyuan Village has the most niches for statues, with a stone carving in three steps and a pair of earth carvings in five steps.

Xie Qiushi took out a statue from a wooden niche like a bird's nest to play with. He saw that the statue had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a solemn treasure appearance, a beautiful beard hanging down to the ground, a pagoda in his left hand, and a long sword in his right. Letter: "Ziwei Emperor Qin Lingche".

Xie Qiushi grabbed Yan Xiao's clothes, pointed at the statue and rolled over with laughter, Yan Xiao also smiled, holding his arm, for fear that he would fall to the ground laughing.

Everyone looked sideways, Xie Qiushi didn't realize it, he turned his head and said: "What is written on the one over there?"

Before Yan Xiao could answer, he leaned over to look at it, and saw that it was a statue of a goddess, with willow eyebrows and starry eyes, looking forward and looking like a god, with exquisite facial features, but somewhat familiar, as expected, the plaque was titled "Yan Zhumei, Immortal of the Netherworld" ".

Xie Qiushi said "Oh", put the statue back into the niche, looked at many fairy statues along the way, and said with a smile: "The people in Taoyuan Village are really casual, there are all monsters and ghosts with bull heads and horse faces-why do everyone prefer Pay respects to Qin Lingche, and don't come to pay respects to me, Xie Qiushi."

Yan Xiao sensed the faint disappointment in his words. At this moment, a high-pitched horse murmur sounded in the distance, and the dust was flying. On the country road, a tall white horse was galloping, and the person on the horse had not yet appeared. , the voice came first: "Long time no see! Brother! Xie Qiushi!"

The person who came was Yan Zhumei, the Fairy of Youming. She had long hair and was wearing a light riding outfit that looked like a Hu suit. She jumped off the horse and at the same time pointed a gun at Yan Chicheng's chest.

Xie Qiushi gave an exaggerated "Hey", and then walked away with a smile. The two of them had a lot of competitions on the back cliff of Yingtai Mountain, and he was responsible for cheering and cheering from the side. .

Yan Chicheng's withered heart hadn't been revealed, and the jade flute was still hanging on his waist. He clamped Xiao's body between his fingers, and fought against each other, only defending but not attacking. After a long struggle, Yan Zhumei stopped the offensive.

"You are not interested." Fairy Youming said.

Yan Chicheng said "hmm", but didn't answer why.

Yan Zhumei didn't ask, and said bluntly: "If you have no fighting spirit, let's drink! There is a gazebo ten miles ahead, where you can enjoy the scenery and enjoy yourself. How about going there?"

Yan Chicheng naturally had no objection, but Xie Qiushi leaned forward eagerly: "What good wine have you prepared?"

Zhu Mei said: "The people below gave it to me. I didn't taste it carefully. It was nothing more than Huang Tang'er. I can't tell the difference?"

Xie Qiushi laughed loudly, and said straightly: "I can't taste the difference, but since there are good things, I always don't want to shorten my own."

Yan Zhumei led the horse and walked in front, without any magic tricks, and spread slowly along the ridge of the field.At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, it will be the busy season for farming. I don’t know why there is no one farming in this field. The grass is covered with dry grass and no one is tending it. Only a few young men who carry burdens pass by occasionally, peeking at them with vigilant eyes, and then speed up their pace to leave. go.

The three entered the mountain and walked slowly to the Luoxia Pavilion, which is adjacent to the mountain waterfall. It is said that in autumn, the maple trees on the mountain are like fire, and the maple leaves flow down with the water, like red clouds flying down into the sky. It is called "Luoxia Pavilion".Xie Qiushi lived in Wuling for less than half a year, and although the summer heat is fading away, it is a pity that the maple trees have not yet turned red.

Zhu Mei saw his regret, and said with a smile: "If you want to see Hongfeng, it's not easy."

After finishing speaking, she raised her hand and knocked on the table, a gust of autumn wind blew by, and the frosty forest was dyed in an instant, like a rouge world, the half-dry waterfall suddenly became huge, rushing for thousands of miles, the jackdaws on the branches were frightened, and swarmed The team rushed out, sending out a series of desolate tweets.

Xie Qiushi said "Hey", clapped his hands happily, leaned against the railing and sat with one leg up, shaking his fan while drinking. The eyes are like emerald green.

The two siblings were sitting in front of the stone table, Yan Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked at his sister, suddenly said: "You are very close to the ghost way."

"See it?" Yan Zhumei raised the wine cup and drank it down, "There are not so many rules and regulations here, it is really a good place for success and defeat, and for making achievements."

Yan Chicheng was silent for a moment, then turned his head to look at Xie Xiqiushi, and said, "One day, you may face each other with swords."

Yan Zhu smiled brightly and said: "So what? Although I have sparred with him many times, I have never tried to fight to the death. Thinking about it like this, I still have some expectations - you are familiar with his temperament, and if you really do it, he will not be against you." I show mercy."

Yan Chicheng didn't say much anymore, but the haze between his eyebrows never dissipated. He thought of the deep snow on Yingtai Mountain, Xie Qiushi's nightmare, and Xie Qiushi's blank eyes that day.

Xie Qiushi said, "What if I don't want to do these things anymore?"

With a stab in his heart, he involuntarily raised his eyes to look at Xie Qiushi, only to see that Xie Xianjun noticed his gaze, beckoned to him, and smiled like a spring flower - I don't know if it was an illusion, but he just felt that the smile didn't reach his eyes.

Xie Qiushi raised his glass: "Yan Xiao, if you don't want to drink, would you like to sit here with me?"

His cheeks were flushed, obviously he had drunk too much, Yan Chicheng walked forward slowly, did not sit down, but just pressed the back of his cold hand to his forehead.

"What?" Xie Qiushi pouted.

"You are not in high spirits." Yan Chicheng said, "If you are not happy, stop laughing."

"I'm used to laughing." Xie Qiushi stuck out his tongue and said dizzily, "I feel awkward if I don't laugh."

Yan Chicheng looked at him quietly, and asked after a long time, "Why aren't you happy?"

Xie Qiushi didn't answer, he leaned forward and fished out a red leaf from the stream. The palm-sized leaf was bright red. He stared at the emerald red leaf and said in a low voice, "This leaf shouldn't be red at this time, and neither should it be in autumn." It came so fast, Zhu Mei was too impatient."

Yan Zhumei smiled nonchalantly: "You have sharp eyes." She also picked up a maple leaf from the stream, but the difference was that the leaf had withered and died from the stem to the leaf.

Yan Chicheng was startled, then looked at the maple forest, only to find that half of the maple trees had turned red prematurely, while the other half had withered and died prematurely.

Zhu Mei said leisurely: "Don't worry about it. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, if we don't come to appreciate it, what's the point of staying for a long time?"

Xie Qiushi was noncommittal, just staring at the sunset waterfall for a long time, then suddenly screamed, jumped into the waterfall, pulled out his fan and said loudly: "Yan Zhumei! Come out and do two tricks with me, relieve boredom!"

Yan Zhumei shouted: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders!"

The two fought back and forth with the strength of wine, the red one was red, the white one was snowy white, fighting fiercely among the mountains, rivers and forests, Xie Qiushi felt that the stagnant breath in his chest had finally dissipated, but he didn't stop. .The two fought until the sun set on the western mountain and the moon rose in the sky. Fang went to the pavilion to drink wine and take a breath. After a while, he changed into weapons and intertwined together. Until dawn, both of them were tired. Sit on the ground and talk about Taoism.

Yan Zhumei has always been infatuated with martial arts, and Xie Qiushi is struggling to compile the formulas. The two simply used the strength of wine to argue about the exercises. Occasionally, they quarreled fiercely, only to remember that there was Yan Xiao beside them, and they each pointed out. Ya Li mouthed Yan Chicheng's comment.

"Your fan technique, no ordinary person can practice it." Yan Zhumei pointed at the crooked handwriting on the paper, and laughed while turning the pages, "Even I have to study for a year or so before I can learn it well. .”

Xie Qiushi snorted twice, although he was unwilling, but he was more proud: "You are just a fool, pretending to be a world-class genius! I am very merciful, and I allow you to take this calligraphy back, and try to figure it out. Wait for the future of Wuling. He is promising, you should reward him on behalf of the Immortal Monarch."

"Your words seem to be telling the funeral." Yan Zhu raised her eyebrows and said, she flipped through the booklet quickly, and stopped at the last page, "...What is this?"

"Hmm..." Xie Qiushi also leaned over and stared at the messy formation diagram for a moment, "Your mountain maple leaves, one piece is withered, one piece is red, one piece is red, and one piece is withered; Trapping one person, killing one person, killing one person, trapping one person, orderly profit and loss, punishing evil with the right way, never ending without death."

"It's a deadly gadget!" Zhu Mei only felt it was funny, "How did you think of writing this?"

"Ordinary people are fragile, but they don't obey the destiny," Xie Qiushi looked at the far-flung stream in Taoyuan, his thoughts seemed to be entangled by the fallen leaves fluttering in the wind, and he said lightly, "They met opponents like you and me. , if you want to shake the tree, you have to sacrifice your life for righteousness."

Yan Zhumei was dumbfounded when she heard the words, she suddenly understood Yan Xiao's sullenness all the way, she couldn't help shaking her head and sighed: "Xiaoyao is like you, you actually start to think about ants, I really don't know whether it's joy or sorrow.——Forget it, come, have another drink, don't let me tonight Get drunk!"

Early the next morning, the three said goodbye by the stream.

"Where is this going, do you have any plans?" Zhu Mei asked.

Xie Qiushi shook his folding fan lightly: "Juntian Dao is not far from Dongling, right? I plan to play along the way."

Yan Zhu's eyebrows showed suspicion: "Going there so early? Could it be that the Emperor of Heaven has given you an edict?"

"Autumn can come a month earlier," Xie Qiushi laughed and shook his head, "Why should I have to wait for Qin Lingche's order."

Zhu Mei was thoughtful, and didn't ask any more questions, and waved her hand to beckon a small boat.

"Go along the stream, cross Dongling, and you will be able to reach Juntian Mansion." Fairy Youming waved her hand generously, "I will send you a boat and a servant, so that you can travel along the way. When I get the outer suburbs of Dongling, I still have a piece of real estate , the name is 'Yemeng Bieyuan' - I don't like to live in one place for a long time, if you want to rest, I will give it to you too."

"It's easy to talk about." Xie Qiushi was not polite, "It's my reward for practicing with the big sister for a night."

Zhu Mei frowned in distaste, obviously she didn't like this title very much, she took out the exercises written by the two of them last night from her bosom, kept the first half of the volume for herself, and tore off the second half of the "Evil Killing Formation", Slapped it back into Xie Qiushi's hand.

"The world is changing. When we meet again, we don't know whether it's an enemy or a friend." Yan Zhumei said, "Even if one day I really want to live forever, Zhu Mei will not regret making you as a friend."

"To each other." Xie Qiushi tilted his head, and didn't seem to care much about what she said. He jumped onto the boat with the wine jar in his arms, and winked at Yan Xiao, "Yan Lang, should you follow me or follow me?" sister go?"

Yan Chicheng tapped his toes and stood beside him. The brother and sister looked at each other across the boat, neither waved goodbye nor said "Take care" to each other, as if everything was kept silent.

Yan Zhumei didn't watch them off, just drove away like when she came, and disappeared without a trace very quickly.

The servant at the bow of the boat started to shake the scull, and the boat went down the stream. One of them went east, the other went west, following the water and the wind, each traveling far away.

Xie Qiushi was stunned for a while, then lay down, Yan Xiao knelt and sat in the stern, he also moved back and nestled on the other party's knee.

The red leaves are still flying all over the sky, Xie Xianjun's black hair is loose, and the white waves and flying leaves are like jewels adorning his body, but the smile on his face has dissipated like a dead leaf: "Yan Xiao."

Yan Chicheng looked down at him.

"I had a good time drinking and fighting." Xie Qiushi said softly, "But I always feel that my heart is very disturbed. Do you know why?"

Yan Chicheng paused with his fingertips, and finally just smoothed his smooth black hair.

"Do you know why?" Xie Qiushi repeated stubbornly.

Yan Chicheng held the back of his head, lowered his head and kissed his lips deeply, he heard his hoarse voice:

"I know."
