Chen Jue said: "If you die, you may not be able to meet again in your next life. I will explain it here in this life, are you willing?"

"There is nothing to be willing to give up, this is what I should do." Xu Mingshi replied.

It is because I don’t know that I may not meet him again in my next life, so it is important to do things in this life well.

He experienced many things in his life, no matter how much fun he experienced, and no matter how much prosperity he enjoyed, but in the end, what stopped in his mind was the snowy winter. He sat with this family in the octagonal pavilion covered by the curtain, hugging his clothes and fire, watching the white snow fluttering, drinking and chatting in the pavilion that the cold wind could not invade. Shen Qingxuan made witty words, and even if the simplest thing was said from his mouth, there was a lot of interest. He was young and youthful, and his mind was not stable. He was often amused and laughed loudly. He accidentally sprinkled the wine in his hand everywhere. At that time, Chen Jue called him "Uncle Xu", a child who was innocent and innocent between his eyebrows and eyes. He ran around the pavilion. While running, he saw Uncle Xu laughing wildly. He had no image, and couldn't help but laugh; Yi Mo was taciturn, but he smiled, filling the empty wine cups they had.

It was the most common winter day. The plum blossoms in the yard were in full bloom, and Shen Qingxuan invited him to enjoy the flowers.

There was not much enthusiasm. It was just that the snowflakes were flying, the plum blossoms were fragrant, the stove was hot, the peanuts were roasted by the stove, the wine cup was filled and then filled again.

However, the flowers are in full bloom and the scenery is in full bloom.

At that time, they didn’t know that the road ahead was so bumpy and tragic, nor did they know that there would be so many separations. They didn’t have the ability to predict, and the road ahead was unknown, and they were drunk together today.

At that time, they thought they would be friends for life. Until today, they realized that this fate was so long. The love and friendship did not decrease with the passage of time, but were polished by time and became more and more profound.

Death is terrible. Even though he is already a dead old man, he is still afraid of the coming eternal darkness.

But love and righteousness resolutely constitute the source of death.

When you still have the strength to extend your hand, you will be able to help your friends, not to win good reputation and praise, but just to maintain things even if you lose your life and be worthy of being a part of the world.

That is help, support, care, and friendship.

It is precisely because of such things in the world that there are people who pursue these things that can be beautiful and continue to be beautiful.

His idea was settled, but Chen Jue thought about it over and over again. His vision was always beautiful, but the process was repeatedly cruel and twists and turns. He exchanged Xu Mingshi's life for Yi Mo back, and Chen Jue was not willing to do it, both in love and reason.

"It's about the father. It's about what he meant," Chen Jue said: "If a father can't make any decisions, then it's up to his father to decide."

Xu Mingshi said: "You can't agree?"

"No." Chen Jue answered with confidence.

"Chen Jue," Xu Mingshi looked at him and asked, "Are there one thing in the family that you made up your mind for over the years?"

Chen Jue was stunned when he heard this, thought for a while, and finally shook his head. This time, he shook his head, with a lot of shame.

The children of ordinary families have become the pillars of the family early on, giving advice, setting directions and making suggestions for the family. But he has never had such a time.

When Shen Qingxuan passed away, he was still young, so he followed Yi Mo. Yi Mo was weak in nature and rarely got involved in disputes between right and wrong. If he was involved, he insisted on intervening without saying anything else. He just needed to follow behind him. He grew up like this, but he never stopped following the pursuit, nor had he ever thought seriously that there would be a day to stop. He was wherever they were. Even if he stayed for a short time due to the emperor in the middle of the journey, he did not break off contact with Yi Mo during the short separation. Such a stay was not because he could be separated, but because he knew in his heart that he would go back soon. This was a habit that lasted for a hundred years and had become a habit.

But Xu Mingshi asked: "What will you do after they die?"

"I'll go find them." Chen Jue instinctively wanted to answer like this, and he whipped it back to his mouth and swallowed it back in his stomach, because he remembered that there was another person, and he also promised to go find him and look for him. Before he found that person, he could not go to find his father and father.

He moved inexplicably, and Chen Jue stood in a daze, not knowing what to do for the first time. What if he couldn't find it? Give up was not his principle of doing things, and there was a promise first. Promise was like a vow, and it should be done with blood! So he could only search until he found it and finished it and could only find the reincarnated father and father. They must not recognize themselves.

What's the point of being a demon? Chen Jue thought, this is not the first time he had this idea, but it is the first time he had such a clear idea.

Xu Mingshi looked at his expression and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was actually just a child.

No wonder Shen Qingxuan refused to die with Yi Mo, no wonder Shen Qingxuan would rather stay with a snake than live. He could see his child very clearly, so he could not let it go.

Yimo took care of him so thoughtfully over the years that even Yimo forgot that the mature young bird should have left his nest and left his nest and found new reliance and bondage, but he kept him by his side.

So there are only three people in Chen Jue's world, Yi Mo, Shen Qingxuan, and that emperor.

If they were not here and the man would not recognize him, it is still unknown what Chen Jue would do in the future.

Xu Mingshi hesitated and said, "You make a decision. You are their child, and no matter what decision you make, you are qualified to do it."

Chen Jue hesitated, but after a long time, he still did not nod.

It was during this stalemate that Liu Yan came back.

Seeing them from outside the door was obviously delighted. Liu Yan put down the small bamboo basket on his back and showed them the mushrooms that were almost filled with, "I picked so many, and I cooked a pot of fresh soup to drink at night."

Since he had returned, Xu Mingshi no longer asked Chen Jue, but just shook his head secretly.

Seeing that they looked wrong, Liu Yan asked, "Is something wrong?"

"Something." Xu Mingshi walked around Chen Jue, "Let's talk."

Pastry and tea were arranged on the stone table, and Chen Jue took the bamboo basket to the kitchen to wash mushrooms, leaving the space for them.

Liu Yan sat down first, his eyes clear and sharp, as if he knew something. However, Xu Mingshi, who didn't know where to start for a moment, was silent under his eyes and carefully speaking.

Since he hadn't thought about it, Liu Yan spoke and asked, "What's going on with Yi Mo?"

Xu Mingshi was stunned and nodded.

"If you don't say it, I can guess one or two." Liu Yanding looked at him and said, "You don't have to do anything, it's great now."

"Is it good?" Xu Mingshi then spoke, "Actually, I know what you think. But have you thought about it? You can keep him this year, what about next year? What about the year after tomorrow? If he really has a female snake he likes and wants to follow it, what should you do?"

"No." Liu Yan said quickly.

"What are you so sure about?" Xu Mingshi smiled, and after a moment of silence, he said seriously: "He is now a snake. Even though he has a kind heart and knows that you treat him well, he may not necessarily want to pursue a life that is more suitable for him. He will leave you, sooner or later this day."

After saying that, Xu Mingshi repeated it again with certainty and said, "You understand it in your heart."

"Isn't the mountain the only one, I'll be the mountain." Liu Yan still had the calm expression: "Where he goes, where I go. If he wants to stay with others forever, I will accompany him. If I really can't stand it, I will kill the thing that he nostalgic and let him return to me?"

Liu Yan picked up his eyelids and said slowly: "I want to tie him up after all, no matter whether he is willing or not. It was like this three hundred years ago, and it was still like this three hundred years later."

Xu Mingshi said: "There is a better way right now, isn't it?"

"What price do you have to pay?" Liu Yan asked, showing no surprise. It seemed as if everything was known and sophisticated. He always lived soberly and self-consciously, grasping any small movements and pondering the slightest traces, so as to summarize the whole picture and make the most appropriate choice. It may not be the best, but it is the most suitable.

He asked: "What price do you have to pay? Xu Mingshi."

"I'm old and I don't have a few days to live." Xu Mingshi did not answer directly, and gave a tactful answer that was not deceitful. "He is my friend, confidant, and brother. I should do this for love and righteousness."

"Then," Liu Yan said: "After you die, will you be reincarnated and go to find your little white rabbit?"

"Of course." Xu Mingshi carefully covered the loss in his eyes, "I gave up cultivating immortals just to find her. If I had the luck, I could protect my husband and wife for a lifetime... If I were more careful at the beginning, I would not let her die without a complete body."

"You make me think about it again." Liu Yan said, "You have to make me think about it."

Xu Mingshi sighed, "Then think about it again."

Liu Yan sat on a bamboo chair and said that if he wanted to think about it, he would sit until dark. No one came to disturb him. There was only one snake. When he woke up, Liu Yan was not there and then he slept again. When he woke up, Liu Yan had not returned. When he slept again, he felt that the quilt was no longer warm, so he crawled out, swam past the threshold, and found Liu Yan sitting alone in the courtyard.

He climbed up along Liu Yan's ankle so naturally, as if the intimacy between a snake and a person was natural.

Liu Yan stretched out his hand, he wrapped himself in his arms, he raised his head, licked the person who was hugging him, and rubbed him again, then found a place he used to, curled up again and continued to become lazy.

As the sky gradually darkened, Shen Jue came over with the food and said, "Dad, I haven't eaten for a day."

Liu Yan nodded, looked at Xu Mingshi in the blue light through his side, and asked in a deep voice: "Xu Mingshi, why did you hide me?"

Both of them were stunned in front of him.

"I thought about it carefully. With your temperament, you should tell me about this matter happily." Liu Yan stood up in the black snake and walked slowly towards him: "You know, I also know that you are old and may not live through this year. In these few days, you can do the last thing. You will be happy to tell me that Yi Mo has a way to return to the human form."

"But you didn't." Liu Yan said: "Why?"

"You have hidden something and said nothing, so you told me hesitantly, even worried that I would disagree?"

"What's the matter that makes you fearless even if you die, but you hide it from it and dare not say it?"

Liu Yan asked questions one by one, without showing any sign of the mountain or showing any water, and every sentence reached the vital point. Xu Mingshi almost burst into cold sweat.

Seeing this, Liu Yan stopped asking. He said, "Let's just let it go for this."

He stopped asking because many things did not need to be clear and thorough. He just wanted to ensure that he was not confused. Perhaps one day Yi Mo would really leave him and look for a better place to rely on him, but before that day came, Liu Yan did not regret his decision at this moment. Life and death are insignificant things. Xu Mingshi values ​​love and friendship. If he wants to die for Yi Mo, he will be sad, but he will not stop everyone. Everyone has the method and freedom to express his feelings. But if he puts his friends in a situation that is more terrifying than death, he cannot do it.

His happiness can be built on death, but not on pain.

"Xu Mingshi," said Liu Yan: "There is nothing wrong with the death of one's life. Live well, we will support you. On that day, we will wash and comb you and change your clothes, so that you can find your little rabbit cleanly and decently."

"She is waiting for you." Liu Yan said softly, his voice soft and his tone was gentle.

After a long time, Xu Mingshi said: "...what did you ask me to say?"

What do you say? What a person wants for a lifetime is nothing more than such a person in the world who knows yourself more than you.

Fortunately, he is still your friend, your confidant, and your brother.

He understands you and cares about you. Even if you are old and useless, he still pitys you like this old.

Even if he is already in prison, it will not prevent him from standing there like a tall ancient tree, sheltering you from the wind and rain, and protecting you with all his might.

This is Shen Qingxuan. He was a friend he made when he was young and frivolous, and he benefited from it for his whole life.

How many people in the world come and go, go and return, but this is the only one Shen Qingxuan.

Unique, Shen Qingxuan.
