The villain!Come fight monsters with me!
Chapter 24 The Summer Solstice
a. Star ice
The green shade is transpiring, a dream for years.
--------
It is summer vacation at this time, although Minghuai is covered with ice and snow for half a year, the rare summer is still unbearably hot, Xu Liuyun thinks so, it is because he has not been to other places in summer .
Compared with other countries, the summer here is still very cool, especially at night, when there is a rippling cool breeze all around.At noon that day, Xu Liuyun crawled on the sofa without a word, his long silver hair wrapped him like a fine knitted blanket, he was still sweating profusely while holding the fan on the coffee table.
Ming Chen was also very surprised, he came down from upstairs to check if Xu Liuyun was dead.He walked over to the edge of the couch and kicked him with his shin in jeans.Xu Liuyun was so uncomfortable that he didn't even have the strength to curse, it was really too hot!
He struggled to crawl over and grabbed Ming Chen's trouser leg, and said weakly, "I/...I want to eat Xingxingbing."
Star Ice is a popular local cold drink. It is a kind of ice that Internet celebrities love most. It was made by Chen Xinghe. It quickly became popular throughout Minghuai State, and quickly occupied one market with its natural, pure, and additive-free advantages. .The price of Star Ice is also ridiculously expensive, 60 Minghuai coins for a cup.The use value of Minghuai coins is similar to that of our RMB here.
Ming Chen said in fear: "Xing Xing Bing...isn't there only one on Yun'an Street, and it doesn't deliver food."
Xu Liuyun was so hot that he collapsed. He sat up and took off his white shirt.
Rubbing his upper body, he frowned and said, "Hurry up, Star Ice is the best. I've never eaten such delicious ice cream in my life."
If Xu Liuyun must choose one favorite food in summer, it must be Star Ice, with its pure and clean taste.Mingchen regretted that he came downstairs to visit him, so he went out to buy Xingxingbing with a grudge temporarily.The streets of Huaiyuan will rotate and move at any time, just like on a huge turntable, which makes people get lost.It is said that the designer of the city at that time was a road idiot. He deliberately designed it in this way in order to cover up his physical defects.The traffic in Huaiyuan was also extremely messy, cars, carriages, and huge strange creatures crowded the streets at the same time.
There are no real houses on both sides of the street, and they are all in spiritual power spaces. The spiritual power lamps are hung on the tall broad-leaved trees on the side of the street, and you can enter from the trunk. This place is commonly known as the "spiritual room".Although it's hot, it's not unbearable, but hair like Xu Liuyun's may really be unbearable.Mingchen sat in a tricycle under the sun, and queued for two hours in the spiritual power space of the 'Xingxing Ice Shop' on Yun'an Street, and finally bought a box of Xingxingbing.
Even the ice cream imported from Jinguo is not so expensive. Ming Chen has never eaten Star Ice, so Xu Liuyun is crazy to spend 60 yuan for this.Star Ice is packed in a transparent glass tube. The finely crushed ice cubes look like ice cubes frozen in pure water that have been crushed.
When Ming Chen returned with the glass of Star Ice, Xu Liuyun seemed to have turned into a puddle of liquid, paralyzed on the sofa in a melting posture, with his arms resting on the back of the sofa, his hair hanging from the armrests of the sofa to the ground, Both legs and feet were also hanging on the ground.
He put Xingxingbing on the table and said coldly: "It doesn't look delicious." Xu Liuyun solidified again and rushed over, picking up his favorite Xingxingbing: "What do you know, this is an alien The ice cream made in the same way is a new type of healthy food that interesting people will eat. It contains the power of the stars, and many stars love to eat it.”
He took a bite out of it with a spoon, chewed it crisply, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.He sighed: "Xing Xingbing is delicious, I want to post it on Moments. After one bite, it is instantly cold from the stomach to the back."
Ming Chen: "Then you are probably dead."
The sweat on Xu Liuyun's forehead seemed to have dissipated a lot, he pushed to Mingchen: "You should try it too."
Mingchen was doing his homework on the second floor calmly and naturally, but after going out for a run, his back was soaked.Xu Liuyun tied up his hair with a rope, feeling the cool breeze blowing all around, making him very comfortable, his feet resting on Mingchen's lap.
Ming Chen looked down at those smooth feet, was forced to gouged out a mouthful, then took another mouthful, three or four times in a row.Xu Liuyun leaned over and opened his eyes wide: "Save some for me."
Ming Chen recalled the feeling on his taste buds, and was very puzzled: "This, isn't it just ordinary ice cubes, without even adding sugar?"
Xu Liuyun: "What, the spiritual power of the stars is added to it, and there is no artificial product added at all. The refrigeration is entirely the effect of the spiritual power of the stars."
Ming Chen had never heard of Xing Xing's spiritual power: "What the hell??"
Xu Liuyun: "A professional and responsible conjurer absorbs the essence and light of the stars under the stars, and it takes 49 days to absorb the spiritual power of the stars."
Mingchen: "Do you think conjurers will take it under the stars to dry in spring? This is just a glass of ordinary ice."
Xu Liuyun: "Didn't you taste the taste of the stars? It has a slight tea fragrance. And it doesn't heat up immediately after eating it."
Ming Chen wanted to remind him that the reason why he tied his hair up was that he wasn't hot, but he was lazy and didn't want to say it, the weather was so hot that people didn't bother to speak.He turned his back to the fan, shaking his clothes with sweat.The fan whistled, blowing away a trace of tiredness.After Xu Liuyun finished eating a cup of Xingxingbing ice, it was completely cool. He lay down beside the fan and fell asleep lazily. He dreamed of a large pond covered with lotus leaves. The pond was covered with ice-like stars, shimmering shimmeringly.He was sitting on a lotus leaf, floating and sinking, while Ming Chen was tragically salvaging stars to make star ice with his trousers on.In the dream, Mingchen fished with a large fishing net, and the stars leaked through the mesh like rain. Mingchen wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and his eyes were red with anxiety.
Xu Liuyun was still intoxicated in his sweet dreams, while Mingchen supported his thighs with his arms, bowed his body and lowered his head, blowing on the fan.At this moment, Ming Chen temporarily forgot everything, just wanted to cool himself down quickly, his brows stretched out, the red line between his forehead faded away, and his expression was very calm, he should have been a quiet and shy person with a voice All young people.
The night supervisor works overtime in the office, and the electric fan always blows away the documents that are sorted out at hand.The humming of cicadas in the afternoon disturbed him, so he picked up his mobile phone and flipped through Moments in boredom, and drank the leftover coffee next to him.The coffee was brewed at lunch time, and it was put aside, and I don't know how many times it has been visited by flies and mosquitoes.The takeaway lunch box was also thrown aside, and the documents were all greasy. He had been working overtime here for two consecutive days, day and night, and his hands were shaking at this moment.
He looked at the state of his colleagues and friends, most of them complained about the hot weather, Ming Huaiguo did not have an air-conditioning system, and cursed at the inspector's office.Night inspector:. . . . .
The actual highest authority center of the Minghuai Kingdom is the priesthood, which is a country where religious power is supreme, and people believe in the Minghuai religion and obey the high priest.The Supervising Office is an armed department, and it usually handles all kinds of trivial matters, and by the way, take the blame.
The night inspector was used to watching, and accidentally turned to a friend's news, and sprayed a mouthful of coffee on the screen.On the screen is a photo that has been retouched. On the tea table is a cup of exquisite and expensive star ice, with a pair of feet up beside it, with a text saying: "The weather is fine, the years are the same as before, and everything is still as cool and pleasant as before. Strongly recommend everyone cloud The Xingxingbing on Ann Street, take a bite and immediately cool down. But everyone had better prepare a sunscreen umbrella to queue up. Ah Chen went to buy it at noon, and now it’s almost three o’clock to buy it, and now he’s still hot blowing a fan (Crying and smiling face) (Crying and smiling face)." Ye Duzha wiped the screen with toilet paper with a dark face, he was most annoyed by this kind of superficial hairy, but in fact he was showing affection in the circle of friends, it was extremely disgusting.
He knew that Xu Liuyun and Ming Chen had always had a good relationship, seeing the brotherhood in the circle of friends, Ye Ducha couldn't help but feel a little lonely and pitiful.It seems that if there is a friend by my side, the hot summer will not be so hot.
Supervising Ye was overwhelmed with emotion. Thinking of his only blood relative, he couldn't help but ran to Yun'an Street and arranged a large box of Xingxingbing to deliver to his father.Night Supervisor's father is a powerful figure, but the relationship between father and son is not good.Everything was happy when my mother was still alive, and then it was different.Night Inspector had always wondered if he had a mental problem.
A few days later, when the night supervisor was still tired of working overtime, the phone rang.It's dad.
"Did you receive Xing Xingbing?" Ye Ducha sent more than 20 boxes at a time, not wanting to make Dad feel stingy.The other side said coldly: "Don't send me these things in the future." Ye Duzha stopped, and he, who was always a straight and tough guy, didn't know what to say for a moment, feeling aggrieved like a child in his heart.After all, it was a long queue all afternoon in the weather of more than 30 degrees, and then went to the express delivery point to pack in sweat. .
The night inspector reluctantly responded.The other side said: "Juexiao, Dad told you, when you are a supervisor, you should be a supervisor, don't meddle in those things that shouldn't be meddled, and stay away from rebellious officials and thieves. Young people have no sense of propriety, you can't handle those things well. " Yedu looked at the pile of scrolls and coffee stains on his desk, and listened to the pretentiously kind tone from the microphone, wanting to say that he really had intentions to be a good supervisor, but he was never good at expressing himself, After a long while, he said coldly: "I've grown up, so I don't need you to take care of me anymore." The other side sneered: "Oh, don't let me take care of you? Can you let me take care of you? Look at how old you are, even a daughter-in-law No, you are so ugly and have no money, you still have to rely on me?" Ye Ducha was poked in the heartache, and roared: "I said I don't care! I don't need you to give me money!" Father and son The people broke up unhappily, and the eyes of Inspector Ye were red, and he saw his own appearance in the reflection of the glass, with loose hair and stubble, vicissitudes and embarrassment.In a rage, he turned over the scroll and decided to continue working overtime tonight, so as to get some results.
The night inspector's stubble covered his chin, his hair was disheveled, what's worse, his nose was a bit crooked, and his night clothes were covered with bloodstains and stains.He had a normal nose when he was a child, and one summer, he sneaked open his father's locked drawer, which contained a photo of his dead mother.Because his father strictly forbids him to mourn his mother, there is no picture of his mother in the house. When he was young, he saw his mother holding the picture and cried.For the next month, he sneaked over at night to sleep with the photos in his arms.The photo frame is made of wood, carved with exquisite patterns. The photo is a half-length photo of my mother. It was taken at Minghuai Bridge, with the little fishing lights of Minghuai River behind. She is wearing a red seahorse wool sweater, with curly black hair, fair skin, and eyes It is as gentle as the stars, and there is a poem written by Dad next to it.The mother in Ye Ducha's memory is just like this in the photo. Every time he sleeps with the photo in his arms, it is as if he is still in the gentle arms of his mother and father. He sleeps between them, and feels very happy and safe in his dream.
When my father came back from a business trip and saw this scene, he picked up the seven or eight-year-old night inspector from the ground, and slammed it on the ground.Ye Duzhan's nose hit his mother's photo frame, and he bled profusely. Since he didn't seek medical treatment in time, his nose has been crooked to the left since then.When he was a child, he always hoped that his nose would grow better as he grew older.Later he was sent abroad to Saga Country, where there was a Longteng Assassination Squad in Asan City, where he spent his childhood and youth in the Assassination School.
B. Kite
In this life, what is the reason for love?
—————————————————————————————
Minghuai people have a special love for kites, and here is also the hometown of kites, which is rich in all kinds of kites.The Minghuai Plain is thousands of miles away, and the wind is flying, and kite flying can often be seen in the sky.However, in recent years, due to the prohibition of the priesthood, people are prohibited from flying kites in the city, and can only go to the countryside.
Summer is a good time to fly kites, the wind is strong and it blows very cool, especially at night, when the night sky is full of luminous kites.
Xu Liuyun went to a bar on Yun'an Street that night. It was past two o'clock in the middle of the night, and there was no one on the street. Xu Liuyun was wearing wooden clogs, wearing a black robe with dark patterns, long silver hair draped around his body, and a tailband. With slight waves.He took out a bamboo bone fan and fanned it, humming a song, looking chic and happy.
All the shops on Yun'an Street have been closed, and the spiritual lamps on the trees along the street have been dimmed, and the street has become unusually wide.A huge white-haired tiger slowly squeezed past Xu Liuyun, Xu Liuyun stroked its beard, maybe Xu Liuyun was born lazy and harmless, the tiger shook his head and ignored him.There are always these strange beasts on the streets of Huaiyuan, and they are often complained by citizens. There are often records of strange beasts hurting people and being sent to the hospital for rescue, but the management here is a vegetarian. until someone is talking about me?), so there is no clear management clause up to now.
Xu Liuyun turned around and walked into a place where the spiritual power lamp was still on. It was a bar on Yun'an Street. He walked straight towards the tree trunk and entered this spiritual power space.It was already two o'clock in the middle of the night, and the bar was still very lively. Xu Liuyun walked into the innermost sofa and took out two cans of fruit wine from the transparent drink cabinet.The price here is ridiculously expensive, and it costs 100 yuan to listen to it.There is a black old-fashioned TV set next to it, and there is a broadcast of the kite competition on it.
It was the time of the annual kite competition, Ming Huaiguo was reporting on this grand event, many young people stayed up all night and came to the bar to watch the kite competition, and the luminous kite competition at night was undoubtedly the most exciting.There are often news reports of young people dying suddenly while drinking and watching kites, but the bars are still overcrowded.
The boy at the bar asked Xu Liuyun with a smile: "Will you place a bet? Team Huaiyuan vs Team Mingxi, the final match is here!"
Xu Liuyun smiled and bet 1000 yuan on the Mingxi team, and the young people around talked a lot. The Mingxi team basically had no hope, because Chen Xinghe, the strongest manufacturer in China and a famous Internet celebrity, would join the Huaiyuan team this year.
"The Mingxi team can't win!!" A bald young man was very excited, stood up and shouted, "Why are there any idiots betting on Mingxi?!!"
"That's right, long live Huaiyuan." Voices came one after another to support the Huaiyuan team. Seeing this, the bald young man rushed to Xu Liuyun with enthusiasm, and said angrily, "Don't bet on the Mingxi team, you might as well give me the money."
The bald man was wearing a white T-shirt with the words Huaiyuan team must win written on it.Xu Liuyun leaned on the sofa indifferently, as if Huaiyuan was the hometown of these people, and Mingxi was his hometown, but I don't know when these two areas have been separated to such an extent.Probably after the War of the Candle. . .In the battle of Mingzhu, Huaiyuan supported Mingxi District with millions of supplies, and Huaiyuan people have always been dissatisfied.
Xu Liuyun drank ice wine and said slightly drunk: "Okay, I'll give it to you. Boss...give him the money."
The little brother came over with a smile: "Haha, I'm drunk. Brother Zhang, you can bet whatever you want."
"No!" The bald man said angrily, "Give me his money, and I'll keep it in Huaiyuan!"
Xu Liuyun has a poor capacity for drinking, and he is extremely sleepy at the moment, he shook his head and said, "Give it to him, give it to him, hahahaha."
He felt that this man's crazy behavior was very amusing, and was about to watch a play when he suddenly felt his heart suffocate, and the thread of black energy in his body trembled indistinctly.Xu Liuyun clutched his chest. For some reason, his consciousness became a little chaotic. The dark power overflowed from his fingers without warning, and a terrible curse was attached to the thousand-yuan bill.
Xu Liuyun made a clever move, trying to suppress the ray of black air, but just as he touched it, it dissipated out of thin air.He sat up abruptly, snatched the money smeared with black air from the boss, and rushed out the door in embarrassment.
When I got home, the living room on the first floor was pitch black, the yard was lonely with stars and snow, and the blue-feathered parrot never spoke.The snow of the stars is an illusion created by spiritual power. Even in summer, the parrot is very smart and will not make a fuss or lose its temperature. Instead, it will look at the fake snow with indifference.Xu Liuyun walked upstairs in the dark quietly, and sneaked into Ming Chen's room quietly like a thief. The other party was already asleep, the electric fan was blowing vigorously above his head, and the blanket was also pressed under his body.Xu Liuyun stood in the shadow of the moonlight at the door, wearing a black robe, sweating profusely but didn't feel it.The black air was faintly visible, as if it was conscious, and he couldn't catch it. He didn't know what happened.Xu Liuyun felt no pain, only a boundless emptiness.The fine stars and snow kept coming in from the window, and he stood there all night without knowing it until the sky was bright.
Before Ming Chen woke up, Xu Liuyun turned around and left. He didn't know how to bring up this matter. He hoped that those hidden dangers were hallucinations.Xu Liuyun's mind was as messy as star debris floating around, but his heart was as quiet as the thick snow in the yard, no matter what happened, just let him bear it alone.
Chen Xinghe is debugging his luminous kite. This is his first year to participate in this competition. As an Internet celebrity, he is enthusiastically sought after by fans.
The shape of the luminous kite is a beautiful peacock with a long tail, and countless small colored light bulbs are tied to the tail, flashing rhythmically.Before the competition, Chen Xinghe's pink hair was wet from busy preparations. He was busy retouching the picture and posted it on Weibo: "The latest luminous kite I developed has a magical effect when flying. Everyone is waiting to watch the live broadcast. I love you guys. , I have a surprise for you.”
There were four to five hundred replies within a second. Chen Xinghe smiled softly, his pink hair was slightly curled, and he was frantically arranging his kite while swiping his phone.A girl with purple hair rushed over from the side, with a sweet and lovely face.Chen Xinghe was taken aback, the girl was wearing a volunteer's clothes, and said with bright eyes: "Master Chen Xinghe!!! I finally met you, you are my idol, you see this golden eagle is according to Made from your design drawings, can you use this pen to draw an eye for me? Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Wen Ya from Huaiyuan High School, and this time I came to be a volunteer specially to meet you!!" Wen Ya Talking incoherently, she was very nervous. Before she came, she put half a bottle of hair oil on her hair.Chen Xinghe gently encouraged: "Of course, you did a great job." He put down the kite in his hand, and carefully carved an eye for the eagle.Wen Ya was completely melted, she didn't expect Chen Xinghe to be so good in person, she hugged the little eagle excitedly, and put it on her head like a baby: "Come on! Chen Xinghe, we all love you!"
Chen Xinghe bid farewell to her politely and gently, and was sweating profusely to tidy up the kite. The assistant ran up and said, "Brother Chen, hurry up, it will start in 5 minutes." Chen Xinghe tied the rope and patted the kite. A huge flat kite tied to a rope: "Ayu, you have to behave well."
Qi Zhaoyu looked indifferent, he was Chen Xinghe's mount a long time ago, Chen Xinghe stayed at home all day, Qi Zhaoyu rarely performed his duties, this time he was temporarily pulled to serve as a kite.
Chen Xinghe rubbed his long brown curly hair, took out the peacock's favorite frog and fed it to him.Qi Zhaoyu turned her head away with a look of disgust: "I won't eat this thing."
Chen Xinghe rubbed his hair, and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, just do your best in a while. I know it's your first time, and it's my first time too. When I see my opponent, I will blow your tail off." The organ on the top, you seize the opportunity to shoot your opponent down."
The rule of the kite contest is that two kites compete in the air, and the one that falls first loses.There are all kinds of kites over the years, such as robotic kites, bionic kites, spiritual kites, and chemical kites. . .But the most powerful is last year's champion holder, the architect representative group from the Mingxi team.
Many iconic buildings in Minghuai are designed by them, such as the Boundless Monument, Abyss Mirror, etc., and they are currently building a new dragon altar.Their kite is very delicate, all carved out of ice, in the shape of a swallow, called "Minghuai Shenbing", its entire edge is very sharp, cutting iron like mud, it is difficult to get close, and it easily won the championship last year.
Chen Xinghe was a little nervous, and hurriedly repaired the mechanism on the peacock's tail.The feathers on Nanazhaoyu's tail are highly poisonous. If they touch them, they can instantly wipe out the other party. These colorful lights of his will explode automatically in the air, and the peacock tail feathers will be directed and collectively shot towards Minghuai Shenbing. Melt each other alive.Chen Xinghe tied up the little colored lantern tightly, and instructed: "When you fly into the sky, you will start releasing the poison, don't care how he attacks you, just hide, and watch the signal colored gun below me."
Qi Zhaoyu said coldly: "Where I pass, not a single blade of grass grows. To serve the king, I will die." Chen Xinghe was slightly relieved, and walked to the competition field with the flattened Qi Zhaoyu.
"The following is the most exciting match, and it is also our much-anticipated final. The blue team is Chen Xinghe, the controller from Huaiyuan, and the colorful bird treasure of the kite. Ming Huai Shenbing. Please take your place, the high priest will give you the highest honor tonight! The third round of the final, the night light kite competition begins now! Fly your kites!"
What the host said was full of enthusiasm, and there were thunderous cheers in the venue, each cheering for the team they supported.A huge balloon of "Chen Xinghe, I love you!" was released from the auditorium, and pink cheering sticks were shining everywhere.There are also some calm viewers who are not confused by idols and believe in the strength of architects.
Qi Zhaoyu was tied up and let go, Chen Xinghe kept pulling the rope underneath, running in the huge and empty arena, panting from exhaustion.Minghuai Shenbing was like a ray of light, controlled by the remote control, and followed Nanazhaoyu closely.
"Ah, Minghuai Shenbing took the lead and wanted to cut off the tail of the colorful bird treasure! There are beautiful lights hanging on the bird treasure here, and the lights show the number 520! But this seems useless in actual combat , caught up, caught up!!!!" The field commentator stood up excitedly: "Shen Bing's wings are about to hit Bird's shoulder, scrape, scrape, scrape!! Great! It's scratched! Birdbao is injured Can he still hold on? The referee has already started counting down the seconds, and it can be seen that the peacock is completely skewed.
When Chen Xinghe reached the critical moment, he became very calm. He steadily fired the flare gun into the air, and at the same time pressed the detonation button in his hand. !"
"It exploded! It exploded! It exploded! The peacock's tail suddenly exploded in the air! What a high-end technology, it is indeed from the hands of the first-class builder Chen Xinghe, such perfect control, such a huge range!" in the auditorium He also let out a burst of exclamation, stood up in surprise and looked at the huge pink fireworks that suddenly appeared in the sky, blooming beautifully in the night sky like a small mushroom cloud, the ice and snow in the empty stadium reflected the pink light, For a time, the entire arena was illuminated.
Under the shocked eyes of the people, Nanazhaoyu fell straight down with a broken thread, and his tail feathers were blown bald by the fireworks.
Oops, Chen Xinghe forced himself to stand still, he only pressed the explosion button just now, and forgot to press the launch button at the same time.The good tail was blown bald like this, and turned into a few wisps of smoke in the night sky.
------------------
"Uh huh, I didn't mean it, don't do this!" Chen Xinghe was thrown to the ground by the airflow from Nanazhaoyu's tail, and he said desperately: "Didn't I give you a bonus of 100 million before? Don't be so angry, eat more and it will grow in two days." Qi Zhaoyu said coldly: "I bet on you."
Chen Xinghe: "So what? Wait, wait, you're not stupid enough to bet all 100 million, are you?" Qi Zhaoyu lowered his eyes coldly, soared into the sky, and left in the dust.
Chen Xinghe looked up at the moment when the brilliance disappeared in the night sky, and was stunned for a moment. The little frog next to him was jumping and screaming.In many cases, as an alien, Chen Xinghe missed his home planet very much.The private messages on Weibo kept scolding him, saying that he cheated people and asked him to pay for their gambling money.Chen Xinghe was not angry either, his existence was like the most brisk melody, he admitted his mistakes and apologized to everyone with a smile.An identical girl with pink hair came from the side, hugged him gently, and asked, "He flies so high, can he take me back to my home planet?"
The green shade is transpiring, a dream for years.
--------
It is summer vacation at this time, although Minghuai is covered with ice and snow for half a year, the rare summer is still unbearably hot, Xu Liuyun thinks so, it is because he has not been to other places in summer .
Compared with other countries, the summer here is still very cool, especially at night, when there is a rippling cool breeze all around.At noon that day, Xu Liuyun crawled on the sofa without a word, his long silver hair wrapped him like a fine knitted blanket, he was still sweating profusely while holding the fan on the coffee table.
Ming Chen was also very surprised, he came down from upstairs to check if Xu Liuyun was dead.He walked over to the edge of the couch and kicked him with his shin in jeans.Xu Liuyun was so uncomfortable that he didn't even have the strength to curse, it was really too hot!
He struggled to crawl over and grabbed Ming Chen's trouser leg, and said weakly, "I/...I want to eat Xingxingbing."
Star Ice is a popular local cold drink. It is a kind of ice that Internet celebrities love most. It was made by Chen Xinghe. It quickly became popular throughout Minghuai State, and quickly occupied one market with its natural, pure, and additive-free advantages. .The price of Star Ice is also ridiculously expensive, 60 Minghuai coins for a cup.The use value of Minghuai coins is similar to that of our RMB here.
Ming Chen said in fear: "Xing Xing Bing...isn't there only one on Yun'an Street, and it doesn't deliver food."
Xu Liuyun was so hot that he collapsed. He sat up and took off his white shirt.
Rubbing his upper body, he frowned and said, "Hurry up, Star Ice is the best. I've never eaten such delicious ice cream in my life."
If Xu Liuyun must choose one favorite food in summer, it must be Star Ice, with its pure and clean taste.Mingchen regretted that he came downstairs to visit him, so he went out to buy Xingxingbing with a grudge temporarily.The streets of Huaiyuan will rotate and move at any time, just like on a huge turntable, which makes people get lost.It is said that the designer of the city at that time was a road idiot. He deliberately designed it in this way in order to cover up his physical defects.The traffic in Huaiyuan was also extremely messy, cars, carriages, and huge strange creatures crowded the streets at the same time.
There are no real houses on both sides of the street, and they are all in spiritual power spaces. The spiritual power lamps are hung on the tall broad-leaved trees on the side of the street, and you can enter from the trunk. This place is commonly known as the "spiritual room".Although it's hot, it's not unbearable, but hair like Xu Liuyun's may really be unbearable.Mingchen sat in a tricycle under the sun, and queued for two hours in the spiritual power space of the 'Xingxing Ice Shop' on Yun'an Street, and finally bought a box of Xingxingbing.
Even the ice cream imported from Jinguo is not so expensive. Ming Chen has never eaten Star Ice, so Xu Liuyun is crazy to spend 60 yuan for this.Star Ice is packed in a transparent glass tube. The finely crushed ice cubes look like ice cubes frozen in pure water that have been crushed.
When Ming Chen returned with the glass of Star Ice, Xu Liuyun seemed to have turned into a puddle of liquid, paralyzed on the sofa in a melting posture, with his arms resting on the back of the sofa, his hair hanging from the armrests of the sofa to the ground, Both legs and feet were also hanging on the ground.
He put Xingxingbing on the table and said coldly: "It doesn't look delicious." Xu Liuyun solidified again and rushed over, picking up his favorite Xingxingbing: "What do you know, this is an alien The ice cream made in the same way is a new type of healthy food that interesting people will eat. It contains the power of the stars, and many stars love to eat it.”
He took a bite out of it with a spoon, chewed it crisply, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.He sighed: "Xing Xingbing is delicious, I want to post it on Moments. After one bite, it is instantly cold from the stomach to the back."
Ming Chen: "Then you are probably dead."
The sweat on Xu Liuyun's forehead seemed to have dissipated a lot, he pushed to Mingchen: "You should try it too."
Mingchen was doing his homework on the second floor calmly and naturally, but after going out for a run, his back was soaked.Xu Liuyun tied up his hair with a rope, feeling the cool breeze blowing all around, making him very comfortable, his feet resting on Mingchen's lap.
Ming Chen looked down at those smooth feet, was forced to gouged out a mouthful, then took another mouthful, three or four times in a row.Xu Liuyun leaned over and opened his eyes wide: "Save some for me."
Ming Chen recalled the feeling on his taste buds, and was very puzzled: "This, isn't it just ordinary ice cubes, without even adding sugar?"
Xu Liuyun: "What, the spiritual power of the stars is added to it, and there is no artificial product added at all. The refrigeration is entirely the effect of the spiritual power of the stars."
Ming Chen had never heard of Xing Xing's spiritual power: "What the hell??"
Xu Liuyun: "A professional and responsible conjurer absorbs the essence and light of the stars under the stars, and it takes 49 days to absorb the spiritual power of the stars."
Mingchen: "Do you think conjurers will take it under the stars to dry in spring? This is just a glass of ordinary ice."
Xu Liuyun: "Didn't you taste the taste of the stars? It has a slight tea fragrance. And it doesn't heat up immediately after eating it."
Ming Chen wanted to remind him that the reason why he tied his hair up was that he wasn't hot, but he was lazy and didn't want to say it, the weather was so hot that people didn't bother to speak.He turned his back to the fan, shaking his clothes with sweat.The fan whistled, blowing away a trace of tiredness.After Xu Liuyun finished eating a cup of Xingxingbing ice, it was completely cool. He lay down beside the fan and fell asleep lazily. He dreamed of a large pond covered with lotus leaves. The pond was covered with ice-like stars, shimmering shimmeringly.He was sitting on a lotus leaf, floating and sinking, while Ming Chen was tragically salvaging stars to make star ice with his trousers on.In the dream, Mingchen fished with a large fishing net, and the stars leaked through the mesh like rain. Mingchen wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and his eyes were red with anxiety.
Xu Liuyun was still intoxicated in his sweet dreams, while Mingchen supported his thighs with his arms, bowed his body and lowered his head, blowing on the fan.At this moment, Ming Chen temporarily forgot everything, just wanted to cool himself down quickly, his brows stretched out, the red line between his forehead faded away, and his expression was very calm, he should have been a quiet and shy person with a voice All young people.
The night supervisor works overtime in the office, and the electric fan always blows away the documents that are sorted out at hand.The humming of cicadas in the afternoon disturbed him, so he picked up his mobile phone and flipped through Moments in boredom, and drank the leftover coffee next to him.The coffee was brewed at lunch time, and it was put aside, and I don't know how many times it has been visited by flies and mosquitoes.The takeaway lunch box was also thrown aside, and the documents were all greasy. He had been working overtime here for two consecutive days, day and night, and his hands were shaking at this moment.
He looked at the state of his colleagues and friends, most of them complained about the hot weather, Ming Huaiguo did not have an air-conditioning system, and cursed at the inspector's office.Night inspector:. . . . .
The actual highest authority center of the Minghuai Kingdom is the priesthood, which is a country where religious power is supreme, and people believe in the Minghuai religion and obey the high priest.The Supervising Office is an armed department, and it usually handles all kinds of trivial matters, and by the way, take the blame.
The night inspector was used to watching, and accidentally turned to a friend's news, and sprayed a mouthful of coffee on the screen.On the screen is a photo that has been retouched. On the tea table is a cup of exquisite and expensive star ice, with a pair of feet up beside it, with a text saying: "The weather is fine, the years are the same as before, and everything is still as cool and pleasant as before. Strongly recommend everyone cloud The Xingxingbing on Ann Street, take a bite and immediately cool down. But everyone had better prepare a sunscreen umbrella to queue up. Ah Chen went to buy it at noon, and now it’s almost three o’clock to buy it, and now he’s still hot blowing a fan (Crying and smiling face) (Crying and smiling face)." Ye Duzha wiped the screen with toilet paper with a dark face, he was most annoyed by this kind of superficial hairy, but in fact he was showing affection in the circle of friends, it was extremely disgusting.
He knew that Xu Liuyun and Ming Chen had always had a good relationship, seeing the brotherhood in the circle of friends, Ye Ducha couldn't help but feel a little lonely and pitiful.It seems that if there is a friend by my side, the hot summer will not be so hot.
Supervising Ye was overwhelmed with emotion. Thinking of his only blood relative, he couldn't help but ran to Yun'an Street and arranged a large box of Xingxingbing to deliver to his father.Night Supervisor's father is a powerful figure, but the relationship between father and son is not good.Everything was happy when my mother was still alive, and then it was different.Night Inspector had always wondered if he had a mental problem.
A few days later, when the night supervisor was still tired of working overtime, the phone rang.It's dad.
"Did you receive Xing Xingbing?" Ye Ducha sent more than 20 boxes at a time, not wanting to make Dad feel stingy.The other side said coldly: "Don't send me these things in the future." Ye Duzha stopped, and he, who was always a straight and tough guy, didn't know what to say for a moment, feeling aggrieved like a child in his heart.After all, it was a long queue all afternoon in the weather of more than 30 degrees, and then went to the express delivery point to pack in sweat. .
The night inspector reluctantly responded.The other side said: "Juexiao, Dad told you, when you are a supervisor, you should be a supervisor, don't meddle in those things that shouldn't be meddled, and stay away from rebellious officials and thieves. Young people have no sense of propriety, you can't handle those things well. " Yedu looked at the pile of scrolls and coffee stains on his desk, and listened to the pretentiously kind tone from the microphone, wanting to say that he really had intentions to be a good supervisor, but he was never good at expressing himself, After a long while, he said coldly: "I've grown up, so I don't need you to take care of me anymore." The other side sneered: "Oh, don't let me take care of you? Can you let me take care of you? Look at how old you are, even a daughter-in-law No, you are so ugly and have no money, you still have to rely on me?" Ye Ducha was poked in the heartache, and roared: "I said I don't care! I don't need you to give me money!" Father and son The people broke up unhappily, and the eyes of Inspector Ye were red, and he saw his own appearance in the reflection of the glass, with loose hair and stubble, vicissitudes and embarrassment.In a rage, he turned over the scroll and decided to continue working overtime tonight, so as to get some results.
The night inspector's stubble covered his chin, his hair was disheveled, what's worse, his nose was a bit crooked, and his night clothes were covered with bloodstains and stains.He had a normal nose when he was a child, and one summer, he sneaked open his father's locked drawer, which contained a photo of his dead mother.Because his father strictly forbids him to mourn his mother, there is no picture of his mother in the house. When he was young, he saw his mother holding the picture and cried.For the next month, he sneaked over at night to sleep with the photos in his arms.The photo frame is made of wood, carved with exquisite patterns. The photo is a half-length photo of my mother. It was taken at Minghuai Bridge, with the little fishing lights of Minghuai River behind. She is wearing a red seahorse wool sweater, with curly black hair, fair skin, and eyes It is as gentle as the stars, and there is a poem written by Dad next to it.The mother in Ye Ducha's memory is just like this in the photo. Every time he sleeps with the photo in his arms, it is as if he is still in the gentle arms of his mother and father. He sleeps between them, and feels very happy and safe in his dream.
When my father came back from a business trip and saw this scene, he picked up the seven or eight-year-old night inspector from the ground, and slammed it on the ground.Ye Duzhan's nose hit his mother's photo frame, and he bled profusely. Since he didn't seek medical treatment in time, his nose has been crooked to the left since then.When he was a child, he always hoped that his nose would grow better as he grew older.Later he was sent abroad to Saga Country, where there was a Longteng Assassination Squad in Asan City, where he spent his childhood and youth in the Assassination School.
B. Kite
In this life, what is the reason for love?
—————————————————————————————
Minghuai people have a special love for kites, and here is also the hometown of kites, which is rich in all kinds of kites.The Minghuai Plain is thousands of miles away, and the wind is flying, and kite flying can often be seen in the sky.However, in recent years, due to the prohibition of the priesthood, people are prohibited from flying kites in the city, and can only go to the countryside.
Summer is a good time to fly kites, the wind is strong and it blows very cool, especially at night, when the night sky is full of luminous kites.
Xu Liuyun went to a bar on Yun'an Street that night. It was past two o'clock in the middle of the night, and there was no one on the street. Xu Liuyun was wearing wooden clogs, wearing a black robe with dark patterns, long silver hair draped around his body, and a tailband. With slight waves.He took out a bamboo bone fan and fanned it, humming a song, looking chic and happy.
All the shops on Yun'an Street have been closed, and the spiritual lamps on the trees along the street have been dimmed, and the street has become unusually wide.A huge white-haired tiger slowly squeezed past Xu Liuyun, Xu Liuyun stroked its beard, maybe Xu Liuyun was born lazy and harmless, the tiger shook his head and ignored him.There are always these strange beasts on the streets of Huaiyuan, and they are often complained by citizens. There are often records of strange beasts hurting people and being sent to the hospital for rescue, but the management here is a vegetarian. until someone is talking about me?), so there is no clear management clause up to now.
Xu Liuyun turned around and walked into a place where the spiritual power lamp was still on. It was a bar on Yun'an Street. He walked straight towards the tree trunk and entered this spiritual power space.It was already two o'clock in the middle of the night, and the bar was still very lively. Xu Liuyun walked into the innermost sofa and took out two cans of fruit wine from the transparent drink cabinet.The price here is ridiculously expensive, and it costs 100 yuan to listen to it.There is a black old-fashioned TV set next to it, and there is a broadcast of the kite competition on it.
It was the time of the annual kite competition, Ming Huaiguo was reporting on this grand event, many young people stayed up all night and came to the bar to watch the kite competition, and the luminous kite competition at night was undoubtedly the most exciting.There are often news reports of young people dying suddenly while drinking and watching kites, but the bars are still overcrowded.
The boy at the bar asked Xu Liuyun with a smile: "Will you place a bet? Team Huaiyuan vs Team Mingxi, the final match is here!"
Xu Liuyun smiled and bet 1000 yuan on the Mingxi team, and the young people around talked a lot. The Mingxi team basically had no hope, because Chen Xinghe, the strongest manufacturer in China and a famous Internet celebrity, would join the Huaiyuan team this year.
"The Mingxi team can't win!!" A bald young man was very excited, stood up and shouted, "Why are there any idiots betting on Mingxi?!!"
"That's right, long live Huaiyuan." Voices came one after another to support the Huaiyuan team. Seeing this, the bald young man rushed to Xu Liuyun with enthusiasm, and said angrily, "Don't bet on the Mingxi team, you might as well give me the money."
The bald man was wearing a white T-shirt with the words Huaiyuan team must win written on it.Xu Liuyun leaned on the sofa indifferently, as if Huaiyuan was the hometown of these people, and Mingxi was his hometown, but I don't know when these two areas have been separated to such an extent.Probably after the War of the Candle. . .In the battle of Mingzhu, Huaiyuan supported Mingxi District with millions of supplies, and Huaiyuan people have always been dissatisfied.
Xu Liuyun drank ice wine and said slightly drunk: "Okay, I'll give it to you. Boss...give him the money."
The little brother came over with a smile: "Haha, I'm drunk. Brother Zhang, you can bet whatever you want."
"No!" The bald man said angrily, "Give me his money, and I'll keep it in Huaiyuan!"
Xu Liuyun has a poor capacity for drinking, and he is extremely sleepy at the moment, he shook his head and said, "Give it to him, give it to him, hahahaha."
He felt that this man's crazy behavior was very amusing, and was about to watch a play when he suddenly felt his heart suffocate, and the thread of black energy in his body trembled indistinctly.Xu Liuyun clutched his chest. For some reason, his consciousness became a little chaotic. The dark power overflowed from his fingers without warning, and a terrible curse was attached to the thousand-yuan bill.
Xu Liuyun made a clever move, trying to suppress the ray of black air, but just as he touched it, it dissipated out of thin air.He sat up abruptly, snatched the money smeared with black air from the boss, and rushed out the door in embarrassment.
When I got home, the living room on the first floor was pitch black, the yard was lonely with stars and snow, and the blue-feathered parrot never spoke.The snow of the stars is an illusion created by spiritual power. Even in summer, the parrot is very smart and will not make a fuss or lose its temperature. Instead, it will look at the fake snow with indifference.Xu Liuyun walked upstairs in the dark quietly, and sneaked into Ming Chen's room quietly like a thief. The other party was already asleep, the electric fan was blowing vigorously above his head, and the blanket was also pressed under his body.Xu Liuyun stood in the shadow of the moonlight at the door, wearing a black robe, sweating profusely but didn't feel it.The black air was faintly visible, as if it was conscious, and he couldn't catch it. He didn't know what happened.Xu Liuyun felt no pain, only a boundless emptiness.The fine stars and snow kept coming in from the window, and he stood there all night without knowing it until the sky was bright.
Before Ming Chen woke up, Xu Liuyun turned around and left. He didn't know how to bring up this matter. He hoped that those hidden dangers were hallucinations.Xu Liuyun's mind was as messy as star debris floating around, but his heart was as quiet as the thick snow in the yard, no matter what happened, just let him bear it alone.
Chen Xinghe is debugging his luminous kite. This is his first year to participate in this competition. As an Internet celebrity, he is enthusiastically sought after by fans.
The shape of the luminous kite is a beautiful peacock with a long tail, and countless small colored light bulbs are tied to the tail, flashing rhythmically.Before the competition, Chen Xinghe's pink hair was wet from busy preparations. He was busy retouching the picture and posted it on Weibo: "The latest luminous kite I developed has a magical effect when flying. Everyone is waiting to watch the live broadcast. I love you guys. , I have a surprise for you.”
There were four to five hundred replies within a second. Chen Xinghe smiled softly, his pink hair was slightly curled, and he was frantically arranging his kite while swiping his phone.A girl with purple hair rushed over from the side, with a sweet and lovely face.Chen Xinghe was taken aback, the girl was wearing a volunteer's clothes, and said with bright eyes: "Master Chen Xinghe!!! I finally met you, you are my idol, you see this golden eagle is according to Made from your design drawings, can you use this pen to draw an eye for me? Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Wen Ya from Huaiyuan High School, and this time I came to be a volunteer specially to meet you!!" Wen Ya Talking incoherently, she was very nervous. Before she came, she put half a bottle of hair oil on her hair.Chen Xinghe gently encouraged: "Of course, you did a great job." He put down the kite in his hand, and carefully carved an eye for the eagle.Wen Ya was completely melted, she didn't expect Chen Xinghe to be so good in person, she hugged the little eagle excitedly, and put it on her head like a baby: "Come on! Chen Xinghe, we all love you!"
Chen Xinghe bid farewell to her politely and gently, and was sweating profusely to tidy up the kite. The assistant ran up and said, "Brother Chen, hurry up, it will start in 5 minutes." Chen Xinghe tied the rope and patted the kite. A huge flat kite tied to a rope: "Ayu, you have to behave well."
Qi Zhaoyu looked indifferent, he was Chen Xinghe's mount a long time ago, Chen Xinghe stayed at home all day, Qi Zhaoyu rarely performed his duties, this time he was temporarily pulled to serve as a kite.
Chen Xinghe rubbed his long brown curly hair, took out the peacock's favorite frog and fed it to him.Qi Zhaoyu turned her head away with a look of disgust: "I won't eat this thing."
Chen Xinghe rubbed his hair, and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, just do your best in a while. I know it's your first time, and it's my first time too. When I see my opponent, I will blow your tail off." The organ on the top, you seize the opportunity to shoot your opponent down."
The rule of the kite contest is that two kites compete in the air, and the one that falls first loses.There are all kinds of kites over the years, such as robotic kites, bionic kites, spiritual kites, and chemical kites. . .But the most powerful is last year's champion holder, the architect representative group from the Mingxi team.
Many iconic buildings in Minghuai are designed by them, such as the Boundless Monument, Abyss Mirror, etc., and they are currently building a new dragon altar.Their kite is very delicate, all carved out of ice, in the shape of a swallow, called "Minghuai Shenbing", its entire edge is very sharp, cutting iron like mud, it is difficult to get close, and it easily won the championship last year.
Chen Xinghe was a little nervous, and hurriedly repaired the mechanism on the peacock's tail.The feathers on Nanazhaoyu's tail are highly poisonous. If they touch them, they can instantly wipe out the other party. These colorful lights of his will explode automatically in the air, and the peacock tail feathers will be directed and collectively shot towards Minghuai Shenbing. Melt each other alive.Chen Xinghe tied up the little colored lantern tightly, and instructed: "When you fly into the sky, you will start releasing the poison, don't care how he attacks you, just hide, and watch the signal colored gun below me."
Qi Zhaoyu said coldly: "Where I pass, not a single blade of grass grows. To serve the king, I will die." Chen Xinghe was slightly relieved, and walked to the competition field with the flattened Qi Zhaoyu.
"The following is the most exciting match, and it is also our much-anticipated final. The blue team is Chen Xinghe, the controller from Huaiyuan, and the colorful bird treasure of the kite. Ming Huai Shenbing. Please take your place, the high priest will give you the highest honor tonight! The third round of the final, the night light kite competition begins now! Fly your kites!"
What the host said was full of enthusiasm, and there were thunderous cheers in the venue, each cheering for the team they supported.A huge balloon of "Chen Xinghe, I love you!" was released from the auditorium, and pink cheering sticks were shining everywhere.There are also some calm viewers who are not confused by idols and believe in the strength of architects.
Qi Zhaoyu was tied up and let go, Chen Xinghe kept pulling the rope underneath, running in the huge and empty arena, panting from exhaustion.Minghuai Shenbing was like a ray of light, controlled by the remote control, and followed Nanazhaoyu closely.
"Ah, Minghuai Shenbing took the lead and wanted to cut off the tail of the colorful bird treasure! There are beautiful lights hanging on the bird treasure here, and the lights show the number 520! But this seems useless in actual combat , caught up, caught up!!!!" The field commentator stood up excitedly: "Shen Bing's wings are about to hit Bird's shoulder, scrape, scrape, scrape!! Great! It's scratched! Birdbao is injured Can he still hold on? The referee has already started counting down the seconds, and it can be seen that the peacock is completely skewed.
When Chen Xinghe reached the critical moment, he became very calm. He steadily fired the flare gun into the air, and at the same time pressed the detonation button in his hand. !"
"It exploded! It exploded! It exploded! The peacock's tail suddenly exploded in the air! What a high-end technology, it is indeed from the hands of the first-class builder Chen Xinghe, such perfect control, such a huge range!" in the auditorium He also let out a burst of exclamation, stood up in surprise and looked at the huge pink fireworks that suddenly appeared in the sky, blooming beautifully in the night sky like a small mushroom cloud, the ice and snow in the empty stadium reflected the pink light, For a time, the entire arena was illuminated.
Under the shocked eyes of the people, Nanazhaoyu fell straight down with a broken thread, and his tail feathers were blown bald by the fireworks.
Oops, Chen Xinghe forced himself to stand still, he only pressed the explosion button just now, and forgot to press the launch button at the same time.The good tail was blown bald like this, and turned into a few wisps of smoke in the night sky.
------------------
"Uh huh, I didn't mean it, don't do this!" Chen Xinghe was thrown to the ground by the airflow from Nanazhaoyu's tail, and he said desperately: "Didn't I give you a bonus of 100 million before? Don't be so angry, eat more and it will grow in two days." Qi Zhaoyu said coldly: "I bet on you."
Chen Xinghe: "So what? Wait, wait, you're not stupid enough to bet all 100 million, are you?" Qi Zhaoyu lowered his eyes coldly, soared into the sky, and left in the dust.
Chen Xinghe looked up at the moment when the brilliance disappeared in the night sky, and was stunned for a moment. The little frog next to him was jumping and screaming.In many cases, as an alien, Chen Xinghe missed his home planet very much.The private messages on Weibo kept scolding him, saying that he cheated people and asked him to pay for their gambling money.Chen Xinghe was not angry either, his existence was like the most brisk melody, he admitted his mistakes and apologized to everyone with a smile.An identical girl with pink hair came from the side, hugged him gently, and asked, "He flies so high, can he take me back to my home planet?"
