death of mountain god

Zhou Li didn't want to expose his carnivorous nature, but his body preceded his reason, and he moved to the side of the freezer step by step and hesitated. When his right hand was about to move, Shen Yuntan held it down: "Dinner should be light."

Having said that, he packed a perch in tin foil when passing by the restaurant downstairs to chat about his appetite.

When arriving at Zhou Li's house, the speed of the car slowed down, Shen Yuntan slightly turned his head to look at him: "Didn't you say you want to go back to get the wine?"

Zhou Li glanced up with a guilty conscience, probably because there was a ghost in his heart, and he always felt that Lao Zhou had set up a high-powered telescope in front of the window to spy on him.

"Then I'll go up there, you wait for me." Zhou Li shook his hand and reluctantly got off the car.

Shen Yuntan stretched out his five fingers in a daze, as if the body temperature that had just attached to him hadn't disappeared for a long time.

A child who had just finished school was looking out the car window. He saw the man in the car smiling from the corner of his eyes, as if he had seen through something, and ran away with his schoolbag in his arms.

Zhou Li controlled his expression a few times according to the phone screen, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

He Wenjun was chasing an ancient costume TV series with excessive skin whitening and whitening. She pointed to the refrigerator: "Are you hungry? There is beef brisket made at noon in the refrigerator. There may not be a few pieces of beef brisket left. The tomato soup is delicious. Warm it up by yourself." It's supper."

Zhou Li quickly ran to the kitchen, lifted the lid on the table and saw that there were quite a few, steaming hot, he took a few mouthfuls, and said inarticulately: "Thank you, Mom."

Before he could sit still, he poked his head and asked, "Mom, where did my dad put his wine? I'll take a few sips for my savior."

Zhou Xiaoshan sat in front of the TV on time and waited to take over: "Did you agree to watch the news at seven o'clock?"

"Isn't it different for you to use a computer?" He Wenjun sat firmly, watching the life and death of the hero and heroine on TV with excitement: "You have already watched thirty episodes, so I can finish it all in one sitting?"

Zhou Xiaoshan could only shake his head and sigh, looking at his unfulfilled son: "Go to the top cabinet in the kitchen, find it yourself, don't take the blue bottle, it was opened a few days ago."

"Hey——" Of course Zhou Li knew where to put it, and immediately stepped on the stool when he got it right, stretched out his hand to scoop it up, and moved down the white gift box that he had been looking forward to for a long time.

While carrying the wine, he bid farewell blithely: "I won't come back later if it's too late, so there's no need to keep food."

Shen Yuntan kept staring at the iron gate of the community, until a well-proportioned and handsome man slipped out on a skateboard, a few strands of hair were blown up by the wind, and his eyes were fixed on the man's forehead, corners of eyes, lips, and neck.

Zhou Li knocked on the car window with his inhuman thoughts, put the gift box on the back seat, and sat back beside Shen Yuntan without hesitation.

Shen Yuntan said abruptly: "Is your teahouse short of people? I can help."

Um?Zhou Li was surprised: "Aren't you doing art? Why come to the teahouse when you have time?"

Before Shen Yuntan could answer, he suddenly realized again: "Our teahouse personnel are quite special, and indeed there are not enough people... But don't worry, Lao Chen can handle it."

Shen Yuntan fell silent, and took Zhou Li to the car to go upstairs, and the reaction arc slowed down when he approached the door: "I...Zhou Li, what am I yours?"

Zhou Li stared at a pair of innocent eyes, and blurted out: "Boyfriend."

Shen Yuntan put the key into Zhou Li's hand, and held his hand to open the door: "Then can I open the back door for my boyfriend? I'm very poor."

Shen Yuntan opened the door with one hand, and held the watermelon in the other, simply put his chin on Zhou Li's shoulder, and vowed not to give up until he reached his goal: "I want to go."

Zhou Li's ears were soft, and he said what he said: "Okay, okay, I'll go and tell Chen Heng right now."

Only then did Shen Yuntan get up and open the door. As a room for a man living alone, he tidied it up enough, as if it was waiting for inspection every day.

The walls are clean and white, the floor is light-colored, and wooden shutters are Japanese or Nordic. The entire wall in the living room is full of display cabinets. Each frame has a kind of potted plant. Common and rare ones are posted with small cards like a museum, and there is little dust. , should be cleaned frequently.

Zhou Li changed his slippers and walked over: "Yun Tan, are these all living plants?"

"Yes, but I can't keep it well." Shen Yuntan threw the fish into the oven and smiled at him: "I'll turn on the TV for you."

I found an animal documentary at random. At the beginning, I put a miniature camera on the meerkat. Zhou Li watched with great interest for a while. The little thing shrank its neck and made fun of the researcher. The picture truly shows the underground world.

Maybe it was hypnosis from the documentary, Zhou Li was a little sleepy, he leaned his head on the sofa to support his eyelids, and suddenly heard something rustling in the ground, he got up and called Shen Yuntan, wanting to ask what was going on.

As soon as he took a step, the floor cracked open, Zhou Li was horrified, this is a residential building, he jumped down recklessly, unexpectedly, the small potted plants on the display cabinet grew with the wind, and the vines swished around his feet , hanging him alive in mid-air.

This scene seems familiar, Zhou Li thinks carefully, isn't that a trap set by the mountain ghost?He yelled: "Shan Gui, I have already asked the black beast to draw your blood, and I will send it over immediately, please stop, don't hurt the innocent."

A dull voice came from the ground: "Innocent? Who is innocent in this world?"

After he finished speaking, he started laughing, the cracks on the ground became wider and wider. Zhou Li looked out the window and saw that the opposite building had collapsed in half, and there were twisted and stretched branches sticking out of the ruins. He thought that his parents were still at home, his eyes were red , I just want to kill the mountain ghost.

He cut open his wrist with spider silk and drenched it with blood, then chopped off the vine with a wave of his hand, and fell straight through the floor.

The underground is dark, a bit like a meerkat's cave. He slashed at the roots of the surrounding plants: "Mountain ghost! You come out. Master is right. Monsters are inherently evil. As long as I don't die, I will kill you one day." .”

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt that something was wrong. The old monk had never had any prejudice against monsters, so how could he say that monsters are inherently evil?

Before he could think deeply, someone behind him suddenly covered his eyes: "Don't move."

The voice just now... was not a mountain ghost, but Shen Yuntan!

Zhou Li thought about the tragedy of his parents, and was about to question him, when he suddenly realized that he couldn't make a sound. Shen Yuntan's left hand turned into vines and bound his limbs, and he was able to slowly open his eyes.

Zhou Li took a closer look, and found that he was lying on an old-fashioned carved mahogany bed, without restraints, only Shen Yuntan smiled at Yan Yan: "Zhou Li, are you hungry?"

He still couldn't speak, and watched Shen Yuntan crawl up to him and hug him, biting his lips...

Zhou Li woke up suddenly, and found that he had fallen asleep leaning on the sofa, and had a ridiculous dream. Shen Yuntan's magnified face was in front of him, and asked him: "Are you hungry?"

With a lot of thoughts, Zhou Li hugged him in one breath: "Yun Tan, I had a nightmare. I dreamed that you were a monster and wanted to eat me."

Shen Yuntan thought to himself, don't worry.

He stroked Zhou Li's back: "Look, we just bought fish. You like tomatoes, right? I also made tomato and mushroom soup."

Zhou Li was indeed a little hungry, and his daydream was very lucid. He looked at a flat floor, and then glanced at the TV. Shen Yuntan saw that he fell asleep and paused the TV. It happened to be a scene in the meerkat cave.

He got up and stretched his sleepy waist, and said with a smile, "I just dreamed that you caught me in the meerkat's hole."

Shen Yuntan put his arms around his shoulders and said seriously: "Dreams are just projections of reality. If you think about it carefully, you can think of the corresponding images, right?"

Plants, vines, and darkness are the subconsciousness of mountain ghosts. The meerkat cave is the content of the TV before going to bed. As for the bed...

Zhou Li glanced at the white gift box at the door, feeling a little ashamed in his heart: "It seems to be real."

In fact, I only slept for more than ten minutes, and the time in the dream was always extraordinarily long, but how would the spider silk and blood react?The old monk never said it was possible to do this.

Shen Yuntan's craftsmanship is quite good. If it wasn't for the lack of time, he would handle the perch by himself. Even if he didn't know where Zhou Li's fault came from, the two of them would have to exchange cups for a long time.

The wine was weak, Shen Yuntan didn't care, he let him refill the glass, and he did as he said, without disappointing.

Seeing that the timing was almost up, Zhou Li replaced his own with freshly squeezed watermelon juice while he was unprepared, and muttered: "Yun Tan, do you think this wine has a different taste?"

He sniffed it carefully. The smell was not wine or watermelon juice. It was very familiar. I just touched it not long ago. When did it come...

Oh, by the way, when he was at the mountain ghost, someone saved him once. Zhou Li forgot to dilute the wine and was more likely to get drunk. Once his thoughts diverged, he didn't know where he went.

When he was conscious again, it was late at night, he got up and supported his heavy head to go to the toilet, turned around a few times to find the toilet, reached out to take off his pants as soon as he entered the door, and stretched his hand twice, huh?He looked down and saw that his pants were gone.

He admired his naked body in front of the mirror for a long time, then washed his face, rinsed his mouth with water, and completely woke up.

Zhou Li saw his clothes on the sofa, they were neatly folded, he put on his pants and hurriedly searched for someone in the dark, for fear that he might have lost his mind and did something.

Seeing vaguely a figure on the bed where he just slept, Zhou Li choked speechlessly.

Just as he was lying on the bed regretting, the desk lamp suddenly turned on, and Shen Yuntan approached his slightly wet hair: "Are you awake?"

Zhou Li nodded, watching his expression.

"Why is your face red?" Shen Yuntan moved closer and pressed his forehead against it, "Well, I don't have a fever."

Zhou Li's breathing was rapid, as if he was hungover and insane, he aimed at Shen Yuntan's lips and kissed him.

It is warm and soft to the touch, with a bit of sandalwood aroma, which really lives up to its name.

"That day, you pulled me out of the mountain ghost's house, right?" Zhou Li's face was covered with a thin layer of light-colored light, and his eyes were like spots of paint.

Shen Yuntan heard the words and hugged her up, avoiding his gaze: "It's me."

Zhou Li tilted his head, followed his eyes again: "What the hell are you?"

Shen Yuntan let go of him, his eyes were confused, what is he?Not a human, nor a demon, neither a race nor a place to return to.

Zhou Li saw the shadow of a tree floating on the body of the person in front of him, with lush branches and leaves, "What kind of tree is this?"

"Sandalwood, a sandalwood tree from long ago."
