【Yanlu】Ghost

The next day, Lu Shaolin served Yan Yu with tea and medicine as usual, as if nothing had happened.

He was afraid of disturbing Yan Yu's recovery, so he even talked a lot less than before.If Yan Yu is in good spirits, I can chat with him a few words, and when I have free time, I just lean on the head of the bed and look at him with my arms propped up.

Yan Yu originally wanted to persuade him not to do this, but he was seriously injured, and the decoction had added a lot of soothing herbs, so he felt drowsy all day long, so he couldn't help but feel sleepy, not knowing what was going on tonight evening.

The only thing that remains the same is that every time he wakes up slowly, Lu Shaolin's eyes reflect the skylight and candlelight.

It was like this for several days.

When he woke up again, Yan Yu felt much better, and the wound on his chest was no longer as painful as before.He knew very well that Young Master Lu was running out of days, and he couldn't waste his days in this way, so he stood up regardless of the time.

Lu Shaolin, who was standing by, saw him and quickly stepped forward to help him.

"It's still early before dawn, and the Taoist priest won't sleep for a while?" He smoothed down his sleeves without any trace, glanced out the window and said with a smile.Yan Yu sharply caught the newly added bloodstain on Lu Shaolin's wrist, and his heart sank.

Seeing that Yan Yu was silent, Lu Shaolin thought that Yan Yu was lost in sleep, and on a whim, he leaned over and covered his eyes with cold hands, and hummed softly.Yan Yu had never heard Lu Shaolin's singing before, and in the days to come, he would never have such an opportunity again.

The voice was very soft and slow, using Wu Nong's soft language that Yan Yu couldn't understand. Although he couldn't figure out the meaning, it was probably a nursery rhyme to lull people to sleep.

The singing sound flowed between Lu Shaolin's teeth, like warmed sweet-scented osmanthus wine, swaying slowly, quietly sinking together with the watery night outside the window.At the end, Lu Shaolin moved his hand away, saw Yan Yu's eyes were still clear, and smiled awkwardly, "Why are you still awake, I think I sang too badly."

Without waiting for Yan Yu to answer, he said to himself,

"When I was a child, if we kept making troubles in the middle of the night, my mother would sing this song for me to listen to. I heard from my father that as long as she opens her mouth, I will stop making trouble."

"Strange to say, I've always remembered the tune, but her face..."

Lu Shaolin was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously raised his hand, as if he wanted to grab something.He snapped back to his senses, saw the empty hands, met Yan Yu's concerned gaze, and quickly turned away.

"Where is Brother Yan? I thought you would be safe and rich in this life, why are you wearing this Taoist robe again?"

"It was not what I wanted." Yan Yu recalled the past, looked at Lu Shaolin who was half surprised and half puzzled, and unconsciously softened his expression.

"When I was young, I was weak and sick, and almost died. Even though I was famous in the world, it didn't help. Until I was five years old, I ran into a foreigner who said that I must be doomed. I have to take refuge. Although my family can't bear it, there is nothing I can do about it. Since then, I have practiced with Master.”

After finishing speaking, he sighed again, "Although that expert has attained the Tao, he really misjudged one thing. There is something in fate, no matter how hard you struggle, you can't avoid it."

This was the first time Lu Shaolin heard Yan Yu say so many words in one breath, and for a moment he forgot how to answer.After being stunned for a while, I finally thought about asking, "What is the doom?"

This question was sincere, Lu Shaolin was afraid that there would be troubles after he left, and he couldn't care less about Yan Yu's safety.

Yan Yu didn't answer, shook his head for a while and said in relief, "It's okay, what happened in the past is already over."

Lu Shaolin didn't doubt that there was him, but Yan Yu didn't want to say more, secretly heaved a sigh of relief and let go of his heart.

Naturally, he couldn't hear Yan Yu's wry smile in his heart at the moment:

The world is so big, there is nowhere to avoid the word "love" alone.

Speechless for a while.

The two sat like this for a while, Lu Shaolin was afraid that Yan Yu would catch a cold, and was about to get up to get his coat, but Yan Yu stared at the opened corner of the night outside the window and said bluntly, "Is there anything I want to do, I can do it with you One thing?"

He avoided mentioning the deadline that was approaching day by day, but how could Lu Shaolin not understand the meaning of it.In this way, it seemed that he was asking his own last wish.

Lu Shaolin couldn't help smiling, thinking that this person really couldn't learn to be tactful at any time, his eyes rolled, and he immediately became flustered, "There are so many, I'm afraid Brother Yan will be too busy."

"The first thing I think of is naturally the Longjing shrimp and West Lake vinegar fish from my hometown in Lin'an. I also think of the carp baked noodles and Daokou roast chicken in Luoyang City, and the beggar chicken that the little beggar made for us back then. , really... It's a pity that Miss Nian is no longer alive, otherwise I would like to go to Chengdu to taste the Mapo Tofu she made herself..."

"Not only these, Mingqian Longjing in Piaoxianglou, the fine wine brought back by Brother Fu from outside the customs, the top girl in Yichunyuan, the spring dawn on the Su Causeway in West Lake, the remnant snow on the broken bridge...there are all kinds of things, Brother Yan may be with me ?”

He intended to provoke Yanyu to say no.

Seeing that Yan Yu was silent, Lu Shaolinfang smiled again, "Since it can't be done, why does Brother Yan need to ask me about my failed wish? What is Lu thinking, Brother Yan is always the clearest?"

For a long time in the past, those human scenes really made him nostalgic.But until now, even if he didn't go anywhere, as long as he opened his eyes every day and saw this face, as long as he opened his mouth to call and could hear this person's voice, he would have nothing else to ask for.

Unexpectedly, Yan Yu was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "I'll go for you."

Seeing that Lu Shaolin was puzzled, he continued to explain, "I will see for you the scenery you miss, and I will taste the unforgettable delicacies for you. If there are any children left by the old people you miss, I will listen to them for you. story."

Lu Shaolin became anxious immediately, and stepped in front of him, "Are you crazy?! Talking nonsense! Don't you still want to practice?! And the messy precepts of your Taoism?! If you don't want it, you don't want it all?!"

Yan Yu had expected it a long time ago, and said calmly, "Cultivation is for cultivating the mind. I already know my mind, so why do I need to cultivate again? After this matter is over, I will go back and return to my order, and then I will be kicked out of the teacher."

Lu Shaolin didn't expect Yan Yu to be more eloquent than himself when he was serious, he couldn't answer for a while, and could only squeeze out a trembling voice from his throat.

"Brother Yan...why did you come here..."

Yan Yu looked as usual.

"In the past few days, I often dream that I promised you many things in the past, but in the end I didn't promise anything. Now, it has nothing to do with the past and present, and it's always time to fulfill it."

As he spoke, he gently pinched Lu Shaolin's jaw and pulled him closer to him.Then, a warm kiss fell on his lips.

"Go out for a walk, wherever you want to go, I will accompany you."

After a long time, I heard Yan Gui's helpless sigh.

"it is good."

Over his shoulders, the night is coming to an end, and the day is dawning.
