Chapter 5 Life is like a dream

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, it is almost the end of the new year.

In Jinyang, the largest capital city in the north, the flavor of the New Year is particularly strong.

Although Jinyang is the capital of the Southern Qin Dynasty, although the Southern Qin Dynasty was built by the Hu people, the customs have changed greatly after years of integration of Sinicization.What's more, this place is mostly populated by Han people, so as far as I can see, the streets are full of couplets, spring flowers, and New Year's goods for sale, which is no different from the Xiang Dynasty in the Central Plains in the past.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, there was a noodle stall on the corner of the street that was unusually quiet.

Its quietness is not something special in itself.But because at this moment, a very special boy has stepped into.

I saw that young man was wearing a water orchid brocade robe, a black fox cloak, and a gold-plated jade crown on his head. He looked like an ordinary person.But he strolled into such a simple, crude and even dirty outdoor noodle stall. How could it not be surprising, attracting attention, and making people quiet in astonishment?

But this tranquility does not come from this alone.After all, in such an imperial capital, it is not uncommon for children from rich families to experience life in the city out of curiosity.This tranquility came more from the boy himself.

If it is said that there are exiled immortals in the sky, their appearance should be like this; if there should be nobles in the world, so should their aura.

Its eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose are all exquisite, and the end is:

Drunk ink books far away from the mountains, between brows leisurely,

The golden wind meets the jade dew, where the pupils shine brightly,

The ghostly ax carves the cliff, as if it were a miracle,

The flowers on Moshang are like brocades, and they forget their way home.

Therefore, all the people sitting there were stunned when they saw the young man.At a glance, it seems that the heaven and the earth have been scanned.

Such a young man should have an unworldly elegance.But at this moment, he yelled loudly: "Boss, bring me two bowls of beef noodles, add more peppers, and add an egg. Another pot of wine, and a plate of spiced nuts."

His voice was neither high nor low, and the speed of his speech was neither too slow nor too fast. No matter what content or tone he spoke, it was as sweet as a silk plucking, and as melodious as a jade chime striking each other, making one feel like a piece of beautiful scenery. .

It's just that the voice is like a person, and a person is like a god.

But his greeting was so familiar, it immediately surprised and confused everyone around - it seems that this young man is still a "regular visitor" here, not a newcomer on a whim.As a result, the rustling discussions became more and more one after another.

On the other hand, the stall owner on the other side was not surprised or confused when he saw the boy, with a smile on his face.It's just that the smile on the boy is a little more naive.

After putting it on, he said to the boy with a smile: "Little brother, why did you come so early today? Didn't you sneak out this time?"

The young man was dissatisfied when he heard the words: "Uncle Chen, I didn't sneak out! Didn't I say that? I'm a knight-errant, and I regenerate my energy during the day and fight for justice at night, so you only see me at night. "

Uncle Chen's fat face trembled, and he said with a wry smile: "You child, you should read less legendary storybooks and read more Four Books and Five Classics." While talking, he put a plate of beef on the table and continued: "It's rare Come once during the day, and I will give you a plate of beef with Uncle Chen's own sauce. After eating the beef, remember, next time you come to my noodle stall during the day, don't dress so ostentatiously."

less

Nian chuckled, "I'm so rich and beautiful, it's not appropriate to wear other clothes."

Uncle Chen said with a helpless smile: "You, you made my stall look weird."

The young man glanced around with his eyes like peach blossoms: "It's okay, next time I come back, I'll 'disguise'. Speaking of this human skin mask, the 'A, B, and C' in the world are the best. Speaking of 'A, B, C'..."

Uncle Chen waved his hand to interrupt the boy's words: "Uncle Chen, I still have to make noodles. I'll listen to your story when I come later next time."

Hearing this, the young man quickly retorted: "It's not a story, they are all my best friends. Hey! Uncle Chen, you still miss me a bowl of noodles."

Uncle Chen walked back and said: "Hasn't Xiaotian come yet? The noodles are not good in the morning if they are cold."

The boy replied loudly: "How did you know he was coming? I ordered the two bowls of noodles for myself!"

While he was talking, a boy with a bun on his head ran into the noodle stall out of breath, rushed to the side of the boy, and grabbed him by the hem of his clothes.

"Too...too...Master, I have found you!" His words once again aroused the attention and discussion that had just calmed down.

The young man smiled awkwardly, slapped the boy on the top of his head, and said in a low voice, "Le Tian, ​​it's not the 'Master' but the 'Master'! Am I that old? I've taught it so many times, why can't I remember it?"

The boy named Le Tian said "Ouch", and looked at the boy with his small mouth flattened, with infinite grievances on his face.A pair of bright eyes are even more watery.The two dimples on the cheeks are cute.

Seeing this, the young man immediately reached out to rub the top of Letian's head, and asked softly, "What's the matter? Does it hurt?"

Le Tian shook his head with tears in his eyes: "If young... young master can go back... home quickly, even if he hits Le Tian a few more times, it won't hurt Le Tian."

His one was just "a lot of thunder and a little rain", but he didn't use much strength.But knowing that he was pretending, he still couldn't stand the child's pitiful appearance, so he compromised and said: "Le Tian will not cry, how about we go back after eating this bowl of noodles? Look, there is also Uncle Chen's beef. "

Le Tian immediately burst into tears when he heard the words, and there was no trace of sadness in an instant.Jumping on the bench, he immediately began to eat noodles happily, but he didn't know that what he ate was the boy's noodles, and his noodles were still boiling in the pot.

The young man smiled indifferently, and looked at Lotte with tender eyes.At the same time, he gave Uncle Chen a look of "hurry up".

From the time when the teenager stepped into the noodle stall until now, there has always been a pair of eyes that are as quiet as a flat lake watching secretly in the dark, taking a panoramic view of everything calmly.

The owner of those eyes was another boy.

Different from the "all-eyes" young man in Chinese clothes, this young man is so ordinary and low-key that even the people sitting next to him can quickly ignore him.

At this time, he was sitting alone in a corner of the noodle stall, wearing a white coat, a bamboo hat, a package, alone, and a bowl of noodles.It is as quiet as the fine snow falling quietly at midnight, and as quiet as the green stream in the mountains in the early morning.

He hides himself under the hustle and bustle, among the crowd, among the mundane, turning zero into nothing.Keep everyone from paying attention to him, so that he can pay attention to others.

He looked at the handsome young man, wondering how could there be such a person who loves to laugh and can laugh so much in this world?Every ounce of smile seems to be kind, gentle enough to easily melt away all hostility.

Such a person should have many friends and deserve to be regarded as a friend by many people.

Didn't expect to meet such an interesting person during the investigation in Nanqin?It was a worthwhile trip!

After drinking the last sip of weak tea in the cup, the boy in white took a last look at the boy in fine clothes, then put down a few copper coins and left quietly.

Three days later, the youth in Chinese clothes appeared at the noodle stall again.

It's just that this time, it's not a day full of people's voices, but a quiet night.

Every time he came at night, he was Uncle Chen's last guest, and this time was no exception.

He ate the last bowl of hot noodles before closing in the cold air, and the young man helped Uncle Chen put away the stall contentedly, and told him about his amazing experience with excitement.

Uncle Chen was just a common man, so he couldn't understand his wild and unconstrained anecdotes, but he still listened with a naive smile, without any perfunctory or impatience.

At this time, white snow suddenly fell slowly in the dark red night sky, and the snowflakes fell bigger and bigger, and more and more, the whole capital city was wrapped in a layer of glistening veil in a short while.

Seeing this, the young man was in a good mood, and after hastily saying goodbye to Uncle Chen, he jumped onto the roof tiles with his toes lightly, and then quickly swept across several houses with a sweep of several feet like a startled bird.

Wherever he passed, he did not leave a trace of footprints, nor did he make the slightest sound.Unexpectedly, at such a young age, he could perform one of the three great light skills in the world: stepping on the snow without a trace.

He was extremely fast, and soon reached the edge of Yuemei River.Unexpectedly, on this snowy night, he encountered someone practicing martial arts on the river.

At this time, the moon is shining on the river, the river is frozen, the ice is covered with snow, the plums are falling on the snow, and there are people on the plums.In the hands of the people, dancing a silver chain.

The silver chain penetrates several inches into the ice, bringing up an undercurrent under the ice.The undercurrent flowed down, melting the fine snow, the fine snow turned into water droplets, the water droplets dripped onto the plum petals, and the plum petals were crossed by the silver chain, shattered into a fragrant fragrance, dyed red by the moonlight.

At this moment, red and white snowflakes and rain intertwined, people can no longer tell whether to fall in love with the flawless, or should be intoxicated with the beauty?

Or should I praise the amazing talent of the chain dancer?

The young man couldn't see the man's face clearly, but saw a white shadow walking across the ice under the moonlight. The silver chain in his hand was swaying freely, drawing an elegant arc with dazzling light, and he manipulated the rain of flowers with ease, making people I just want to sigh: Peerless!

The more the boy looked at it, the more amazed he became, and the more amazed he became, the more eager he was to try it.With a sudden leap, he has stepped onto the river.

The young man in white suddenly saw the person in the middle of the night, and he did not show any surprise or panic.Every move is still the same, but it is no longer romantic, but all greeted to this "uninvited guest".

During the fight, he glanced at the person who came, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows, thinking: Is it him?

It seems that "Where do we not meet each other in life"!

Although meeting the other party is considered an "acquaintance", but he did not show any mercy when he started.

On the contrary, the moves are more fierce and the speed is faster.

It's just that although each of his whips is as fast as the wind and lightning, and the angle is tricky, it is hard to guard against, but he always avoids the vital points, obviously just wanting to make the opponent retreat.

But how could a young man in a fancy dress be Yi Yi's generation?

He has excellent lightness skills and elegant moves.Although the boy in white was fast, he was faster than him.

Every time he saw the silver whip, he was about to hit him, but he easily dodged it at the last second.It seems to be dangerous, but in fact it is easy to handle.

With a light hook on his lips, he led the silver whip up and down to walk around his side, causing snowflakes to rain all around again.And he was in it, his eyes full of joy.

At this time, he suddenly slipped out a jade flute from his sleeve and put it between his lips.He played the jade flute while making moves to deal with it. His martial arts cultivation was so high that one could not have expected it.

Seeing this, the white-clothed boy was also startled and frowned slightly.

The sound of the flute is curling, following the ups and downs of the whip, rising and falling; the broken flowers are long, stumbling with the falling snow, the fragrance is overflowing and fragrant.

This situation, this scene, at this time and this night, is already distorted.

The white-clothed boy was not a dull person, he sighed lightly when he saw this, put away his offensive, and the silver chain in his hand danced freely in conjunction with the Chinese-clothed boy, presenting the boundless moonlight to the person who made a fool of himself.

After a song is over, the chain dance stops.

The young man in Chinese clothes took back his jade flute and smiled softly: "My surname is Guang, and each name has a silk character."This smile seemed to melt away all the coldness in the world, with the warmth of the rising sun and the warmth of the spring breeze, enveloping the person in front of him.

The white-clothed boy who had a dull expression couldn't help but smile lightly: "My name is Gu An." Even though that smile was fleeting.

But his smile is like the begonias blooming in early spring in the south of the Yangtze River, and when he is not smiling, he is like the plum blossoms in the deep winter of the north.

From then on, the young man named Guangbo will never be forgotten in this life.
