Chapter 28 Chapter 27
There were sparse sounds of firecrackers in the distance, hardly audible, but Huamanlou could always hear them. He leaned against the stone wall, opened his eyes, the fire in front of him was reflected in his eyes, and a little brilliance.
It's New Year's Eve...
After so many years, he has long been used to this endless, never-fading darkness, and he even made this darkness into colors.
The faint fragrance of bamboo branches wafted in the air, and it became colder and colder. Huamanlou stretched out his hand towards the outside of the cave, and fine snowflakes fell on his palm.
It's snowing.
Huamanlou chuckled, auspicious snow heralds a prosperous year.
"The friendship between bamboo and horses, knowing each other and relying on each other; mountains, seas and heaven and earth, only the king and you are happy. Life and death are in harmony, here is one; joy and sorrow, never give up and never leave..."
Huamanlou's voice murmured in a low voice, calm and distant, soothing and long.This is like an ancient poem Yao, which has been circulated for thousands of years, but no one has ever heard of it.
Lu Xiaofeng's steady breathing was nearby, and his fever finally subsided slowly.
Lu Xiaofeng was already seriously injured, but just now he was startled and anxious, and passed out directly, and then developed a high fever, Hua Manlou hurriedly fed him a bottle of Baihuasan, feeling a little regretful in his heart, thinking that maybe he had gone too far.
Hua Manlou was very glad that he was not late, but touched the broken cuff, thinking that Lu Xiaofeng almost lost his life, he felt panic again.
When Lu Xiaofeng landed on the ground, he hugged Huamanlou firmly and let himself hit the ground first. Thinking of Huamanlou's heart ached, he couldn't even sing.
Hua Manlou walked slowly to Lu Xiaofeng's side and sat down, groped for Lu Xiaofeng's face, and pressed her forehead against his.
It's not hot anymore.
"What should I do? Little Phoenix, if you disappear again, what should I do?"
Everyone only saw that Hua ManLou lived happily and contentedly. Although he was blind, he lived more comfortably than most people who could see, but who knew what kind of fear and helplessness he was living in? Adapted to what it is today.
From then on, the world was only dark. When my mother suddenly became seriously ill and barely woke up, my aunt and Xi'er died, Lu Xiaofeng disappeared, and all the people who had been with him disappeared.
The father who has been away all year round is finally at home every day, taking care of his mother and being with him.The eldest brother and the second brother came back to take care of the family business, and the remaining brothers often came back to play with themselves, but except for Hua Ruling, Hua Manlou could hardly imagine the appearance of other people.
In the past, the Hua family seemed to be rarely so lively except for New Year's Eve, but Huamanlou was still very lonely, as if thrown into a barren mountain in the dark, he couldn't see, couldn't find the way, and didn't know where there was hunger. Wolves stare at each other, and there are cliffs hanging high somewhere.
Huamanlou stayed by Mrs. Hua's bed every day, but he couldn't stay there after all, and his world was completely darkened.
Hua Ruling asked someone to teach him astronomy and geography, and personally taught Hua Manlou how to practice martial arts, and Hua Manlou was very obedient.He is very talented, even if he can't see it, he can still remember it firmly if someone else reads it once.
But Huamanlou is always walking around alone, and several family members can't stand it. He fell into the water several times and almost drowned. Eyes with no trace of aura, he could only sigh helplessly in the end.
He was clearly a young boy with curly hair, but his face only had the look of a yellow-haired old man in his twilight years. This child hadn't smiled in a long time.
Hua Ruling has been looking for the Lu family army who disappeared without a trace overnight. There is news that Lu Xiaofeng is also among them, but he can't find it anywhere, and his life and death are unknown.
Hua Manlou in the opposite study heard Lu Xiaofeng's name, stumbled over, his face was pale, and asked timidly: "Lu Xiaofeng, are you still alive?"
Hua Ruling walked over, squatted down, hugged the little Hua Manlou, and said with a smile: "Of course he's still alive, he's alive and well, can dad bring him back?"
Hua Manlou nodded, stretched out his hand to hook Hua Ruling, and finally smiled.
Hua Manlou in the cave remembered what happened at that time, and suddenly felt sad, thinking that Lu Xiaofeng who was lying down now was a big bastard and a big idiot, and thinking of Sikong Zhaixing calling Lu Xiaofeng "Lu Sandan" every day, he couldn't help laughing , but very bitter.
Hua Manlou murmured: "More than a year ago, you quietly led Shaman to live in seclusion, then sent me a letter and disappeared. You finally found someone with the same heart. As a friend, I naturally want to bless you You. But this time, you left quietly and went to work hard by yourself, do you really regard me as a friend?"
On the second day, when the sun shone into the cave, Lu Xiaofeng woke up, and there was a thin layer of snow outside the cave.
Lu Xiaofeng felt much better physically, his self-healing ability was always different from ordinary people, otherwise he wouldn't be able to live for so many years.
He sat at the entrance of the hole, holding a rabbit leg and chewing slowly.Hua ManLou was not there, but he had carefully covered the fire with sand to prevent Lu Xiaofeng from being burned. There were a few green bamboos on the fire with food and water on them.
After Lu Xiaofeng finished eating the rabbit legs, he clapped his hands and whistled towards the sky, and a white pigeon landed in a short while. Lu Xiaofeng took out the white paper from the pigeon's feet, pulled out a small piece of charcoal from the fire, and wrote a few words: Words, let the pigeons take them away.
After a while Huamanlou also came back, Lu Xiaofeng saw from a distance that Huamanlou was in rags, the original snow-white clothes were no longer the original color.He holds a small pile of firewood in his right hand and a pheasant in his left.
The seventh son of the Hua family, who was always breezy, now looks like a little beggar in a mess.
Lu Xiaofeng pursed his lips, not knowing what he was thinking, and then he showed a big smile, and greeted Huamanlou with confidence: "Morning, Huamanlou!"
Hua Manlou stopped in his tracks, froze for a moment, then continued to walk over without saying a word.
Lu Xiaofeng smiled and stood up to meet him, his movements were very clumsy, Huamanlou accurately dodged and walked straight to the cave, Lu Xiaofeng turned around with difficulty, followed Huamanlou, continued smiling and said: "I'll go there Pick up the chicken in the small river next to it.”
Lu Xiaofeng said that he was going to pick up the pheasant, Hua Manlou raised his hand to move away, Lu Xiaofeng persevered, and continued to laugh: "But..."
Before Lu Xiaofeng finished speaking, Hua Manlou turned around, he had already put down the firewood, and the pheasant was held in the other hand, the right hand that was holding the firewood was now holding the pheasant's neck.
"You taught me these things before, and I can do them. You'd better go back and rest now, otherwise, I don't mind picking up an extra chicken."
Hua Manlou was talking in a deep voice, and the hand holding the chicken's neck was hard.Lu Xiaofeng looked at the chicken, swallowed his saliva with a pale face, touched his own neck, then obediently went back to sit by the fire, really as quiet as a chicken.
Hua Manlou doesn't say harsh words, but once in a while, Lu Xiaofeng is a little scared, besides, he was wronged in the first place, and now he feels very guilty.
Lu Xiaofeng sat on the side, watching Huamanlou bustling around, drooping four eyebrows, a little listless, opened his mouth a few times, but seeing Huamanlou's face was as black as charcoal in the fire in front of him, Lu Xiaofeng had no choice but to put Mouth closed.
He remembered the last time he had a fight with Zhu Ting, and the proprietress poured wine for him, why was he so embarrassed this time?
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help sighing.
"What are you going to do next?"
Hearing Hua Manlou's questioning, Lu Xiaofeng regained his spirit immediately and sat up straight.
Lu Xiaofeng: "My injury should be better tomorrow, let's go to Yingtian Mansion to find Jiang Tongwu first, this time I was planning to go to him first"
Hua Manlou: "But it's been half a month since I met Brother Jiang last time. Are you sure he's in Yingtian Mansion?"
Lu Xiaofeng: "The woman's corpse case has not been solved, he can't return to the capital, and Maeda Shichu was kidnapped, the people from Huajiantang will definitely inform him."
Hua Manlou: "Maeda Shichu was taken away?"
Lu Xiaofeng: "That's right, I chased all the way here, and, besides, how many old acquaintances did I meet?"
Hua Manlou: "Who else is there besides Lu Huanong?"
Lu Xiaofeng: "The Honest Monk and Xue Gu Youren"
Hua Manlou turned his face away, and said in shock, "Didn't Xueguyou drown in the sea? The body has also been confirmed again and again, are you sure you made a mistake?"
Lu Xiaofeng: "If you only talk about his appearance, I'm not sure. After all, too many years have passed. It's just the madness when he used the knife yesterday. I won't admit it."
Hua Manlou pursed her lips and said nothing.
Lu Xiaofeng: "Xue Guyou is a sword idiot, just like Ximen Chuuxue is a sword idiot. He is very crazy about sword skills and everything that can block his sword. without his madness"
Hua Manlou frowned, and said slowly: "Is it really the Japanese who made a comeback? Or..."
Lu Xiaofeng leaned against the stone wall and said softly: "Maybe we have been tricked from the beginning."
Huamanlou fell into deep thought when he heard the words, and frowned slightly. Suddenly, Lu Xiaofeng jumped to the side of Huamanlou, and Huamanlou was startled.Lu Xiaofeng leaned close to Huamanlou, and took the branch of the pheasant in his hand.
Lu Xiaofeng: "I was wrong, this time I was really wrong, I promise I won't lie to you in the future, we will live and die together from now on, life and death will not be at the same time, from now on I, Lu Xiaofeng, will go to heaven and earth, even if I go to hell, I will die together." Pull you, don't be angry, okay?"
Lu Xiaofeng's tone reminded Hua Manlou of when he was a child, every time Lu Xiaofeng annoyed Xi'er, he coaxed him like this, he was really happy and angry, and finally he laughed angrily.
Seeing this, Lu Xiaofeng lightly bumped into Huamanlou and said: "Hey, you laughed, you are not allowed to hold on to this matter anymore, if you don't speak, you will really suffocate me to death."
Hua Manlou: "Why didn't I fall to kill you?"
Lu Xiaofeng: "It's not thanks to the dude who arrived in time. If I fell directly from the top of the cliff, I would be a dead bird right now."
While talking, Lu Xiaofeng bowed to Huamanlou, and said with a playful tone: "Thank you, Mr. Hua, for saving my life~"
It's just that Lu Xiaofeng's opera accent is even worse than his singing, even Hua Manlou couldn't help rubbing his ears, Lu Xiaofeng saw that Hua Manlou was silent, and wanted to do it again as soon as he raised his hand, Hua Manlou hurriedly stretched out his hand and pressed it, coldly He said with a straight face: "Don't thank me in a hurry, wait until this matter is settled, let's take it easy"
Lu Xiaofeng's forehead twitched, and he clutched his chest, indicating that the pain in his ribs had worsened. Hua Manlou just took the pheasant and roasted it, and ignored him, so Lu Xiaofeng had no choice but to shut up in embarrassment.
The author has something to say:
I ate chicken drumsticks for lunch today, and then I thought about Lu Xiaoji, it would be good to let Huahua threaten him, otherwise this chicken is too skinny (? ̄▽ ̄)?
