Book Title: Adela Longman

Introduction to this book:

Yun Buyi died of a terminal illness, woke up again, and became a spiritual herb in the world of immortals.

It looks like a mimosa but has the power of a devil.

The body is indestructible and invulnerable. It can freely extend its branches and leaves, control its body size, and has almost infinite spiritual power. A single purification level A can cancel the opponent's flash-increasing move.

It communicates with immortals and ghosts, and makes friends with gods and ghosts.

The God who created the world in his previous life, his achievements will last forever. The beginning of this life is a mimosa, with endless freedom.

After thousands of sails, Yun Buyi looked back at those years and realized that every life of his life had become a legend.

Literary edition copy:

In my previous life, there were three disasters and eight disasters, but in this life, there will be nothing but fantasy.

There are three or five friends, encounter one or two strange things, watch the fireworks in the world, and spend the long time.

Chapter One

When the age is dim, there are only a few clouds and smoke, the sky and the earth are chaotic, and the sun and the moon move side by side. The number of days is not determined, the great road is difficult to achieve, and all things are born without nourishment.

From time to time, a giant tree appears, its height and width are unknown, breaking through the chaos, dividing the sun and moon, and finally seeing the thick earth and high sky, and the flowing water to record the years.

It's death.

"The Great Wilderness Sutra Volume 1: The First Division of Heaven and Earth"

It was a late autumn day and the night was so cold that the moonlight was like water-soaked ice, so cold that it reached the cracks in one's bones.

When the weather is cold, the nights are also long. It is clearly the time of sunrise, but the night is still thick and dark, like an iron curtain covering the head.

But the new watchman doesn't care about this. He will go home when the time comes, whether it's daylight or not.

The watchman hunched his shoulders and rubbed his hands, then walked from the end of the road into a winding and narrow alley. Many houses in the alley had already turned on their lights. Walking forward six or seventy meters, light smoke and aroma wafted from the breakfast stalls that often set up stalls under the locust trees.

He trotted forward and saw the young man raised his eyelids under the bright lights and handed him the two plain steamed buns that had been wrapped in advance.

Well, the old rules.

The lamp was dim, casting a tangled shadow on the man's hand. When the watchman took the bun, he missed it clearly, so he took his hand back.

It's really early to go out to the stall today. The watchman didn't pay attention. He leaned against the stall and ate his breakfast by the fire. There have been some weird rumors in the city recently. Are you afraid of running into them?

If you can't chance it, you also need luck to meet a ghost. The man said the words in an understatement that no one who went out at night would dare to mention. The husband glared at him in shock, but he didn't take it seriously. Besides, the young master of the Qin family always walks around at this time. With him here, ghosts Don’t be afraid even if you come.

That’s right

The watchman gnawed two buns in one breath, rubbed the cold fingertips, and licked the oil off them.

At this time, a young man's clear voice sounded not far away: Ayi, why are you twitching? Do you have epilepsy?

The moonlight shines into the darkness like silver frost. A handsome young man in a white robe and a silver belt walks slowly, holding a water-blue ice-cracked porcelain basin in his arms. Fertile soil is pressed into the basin. Each plant has only three leaves, shaped like a mimosa. The spiritual grass drooped its branches and leaves, twitching from time to time.

Ling·Mian·Cao Yunbu Yi resisted the urge to vomit: If you call me aunt again, I will beat you!

There are three wonders in Luo'an City. One is the sunset at Songtao Lake, the second is the snow falling on Guizhu Creek, and the third is the young master of the Qin family walking on the grass.

Luo'an City is located in a prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River, where merchants and wealthy families gather. The Qin family is nothing, and the head of the Qin family, Qin Fang, is just an ordinary person who started from scratch and became the richest man in the city.

Qin Lifan was the only son of Qin Fang. He was pampered since childhood and wanted the stars but not the moon. Maybe it's because there are few people in the family and there aren't that many messy things. He doesn't grow crooked despite being so pampered. Apart from not being interested in studying, his temperament can be said to be lovable.

He pleases people of all classes in the city.

Young Master Qin loves to go out for a walk. Every time he goes out, he behaves like a philanthropic boy. He spends a lot of money wherever he goes, including restaurants and teahouses in the city, small businessmen and hawkers, and even beggars and homeless people in the ruined temples outside the city. There was no one in the Han Dynasty who was not unkind to him, so when he walked on the road, even if he just called out, it would have the effect of raising his arms and waving his pole to start an uprising.

Until one unknown day, the young master dug up a spiritual grass from the suburbs and suddenly closed the door and thanked the guests for three whole months.

Three months later, Qin Lifan finally resumed his habit of taking a leisurely stroll. This time, there was a pot of green and diseased spiritual grass in his arms.

This spiritual grass that looks like a mimosa but can talk and has spiritual power is called Yun Buyi. He has a soul from another world.

As expected, Qin Lifan changed his title smoothly and continued the previous question: What's wrong with you? Not feeling well?

kind of.

The aunt who endured this harsh words put three leaves on the edge of the porcelain basin, like a little person lying there with her head and hands hanging down, wilted.

He felt an inexplicable nausea, as if he was in a pile of dead fish that had been soaked for more than ten days. His whole body was soaked in a damp and stinky smell. If there was something in his stomach, he would have to vomit it all out.

Qin Lifan's expression suddenly changed when he heard him say he felt uncomfortable and was so haggard, and he was about to turn around and run home in a hurry.

I hope you hold on! I'll take you back right away and let Dad take a look at it for you!

Yun Buyi was hit in the head and face by the wind brought up by his turning around. The cold air of the autumn night diluted the nausea a lot, and he also cheered up a little.

Don't be busy. He lifted a leaf, and the branch quickly stretched and lengthened, and patted Qin Lifan's face like a small hand. He bought the buns first. Your father and I both wanted to eat them.

Qin Lifan stopped, looked at him and then looked back at the breakfast stall, his expression indescribable.

Yun Buyi scratched the middle leaf with the right leaf, as if he knew what he wanted to say, and nodded calmly: Yes, even if I die suddenly from discomfort, I have to eat this bun before I die.

The young master of the Qin family rolled his eyes gracefully.

In front of the breakfast stall, after the watchman left, a few more customers came and gathered around in twos and threes.

As soon as Qin Lifan approached with the grass basin in his arms, the greetings started to come one after another, like the autumn tide in Songtao Lake, one after another.

There was a young man dressed as a scholar who was probably a social terrorist. After saying hello, he reached out to give Yun Buyi a high-five. Yun Buyi was very considerate. He lifted up the leaf and patted it with him, then lowered it lazily.

The stall owner packed breakfast for other customers. He raised his eyelids and looked at Yun Buyi. The light reflected on his fair face, revealing a small mole under his right eye, which was as bright red as a drop of blood.

Young Master, Mr. Lingcao, what do you want?

Hearing this, Yun Buyi reached out from the branch and clicked on the steamed stuffed buns stuffed with bean paste, mushrooms and fresh bamboo shoots, and cabbage and pork.

Qin Lifan put down a gold ingot, smiled and asked the stall owner to pack twenty pieces each, and signaled that he did not need to change.

For the sake of gold, the stall owner packed more quickly: Mr. Qin, there are only ten cabbage and pork fillings left.

Yun Buyi waved his hand, and Qin Lifan said: Then make ten more corn and pork fillings.

After wrapping the buns, two strings of oil-paper buns were picked up by Yi Cao and each person picked up a string, then turned around and left.

At this time, Yun Buyi discovered that the breakfast fire was burned with unknown firewood. It was not pungent, but had a warm and strange fragrance, like rosin, but lighter.

The strange thing is that when he smelled this aroma, he was not nauseated at all. Instead, he felt a faint sense of peace of mind, as if he had smelled this smell before he became conscious, in a reassuring place. Under circumstances.

However, once out of the range of the aroma, the nausea returned.

Yun Buyi lay on the edge of the basin and twitched silently. He wanted to ask Qin Lifan to go back to the breakfast stall and ask the stall owner to get some firewood, but he was so sick that he couldn't speak.

Dad! Dad!

Dad, hello!

In the study, Qin Fanggang had just fried last year's plum blossoms in water when he saw his silly son rushing in in the wind and rain, shouting and screaming, and those who didn't know thought there was a ghost chasing him behind him.

Qin Junzi raised his eyes reservedly and saw his silly son's beloved spiritual grass lying haggardly and twitching by the basin, as if he was suffering from epilepsy.

He sighed inwardly, rolled up his sleeves and washed his hands in the basin. While wiping the water droplets from his fingers with a kerchief, Qin Lifan happened to rush in front of him holding the basin.

Qin Fang put down the silk handkerchief, and Xuedui's hand tapped the leaf in the middle of Yun Buyi's head: What's wrong?

Yun Buyi raised his head, and the tiny lines on the leaves somehow created an aggrieved expression: I feel sick, but I can't vomit it out.

Um. Qin Fang nodded, pinched him with his fingertips, and paused. He must have eaten something dirty.

dirty stuff? Qin Lifan was stunned and looked down at him, "What have you eaten?"

Yun Buyi was even more innocent than he was and didn't understand: I didn't eat anything. I just ate a plate of roasted lamb chops, two roasted lamb legs, a large bowl of lamb soup and drank two pots of spring stuffed rice last night.

Qin Lifan:

Qin Fang:

Why don't you hate me to death?

The chef in the house is a trustworthy person, his craftsmanship is good, and he will not tamper with the food.

Qin Fang took his son to sit down, put the porcelain basin on the table, put two bunches of steamed buns aside, scooped out a spoonful of boiled plum blossom snow water, blew it to cool, and poured it on Yun Buyi's roots.

Yun Buyi felt a warm current penetrate his whole body, and the refreshing fragrance of plum blossoms rushed to the top of his head, forcefully dispelling the lingering nausea, making his mind clear and relaxed.

While he was enjoying himself, he heard Qin Fang asking someone to call the cook, and he immediately raised his head nervously.

The meat is for me to eat, it has nothing to do with him, don't punish him!

Who said he should be punished? Qin Fang was angry and funny. I wanted to ask him where he bought the mutton. Since there was nothing wrong with the food he cooked, the problem could only be with the ingredients.

Yun Buyi breathed a sigh of relief and lazily twisted his body around Qin Lifan's shoulders and neck. It was obviously a piece of grass, but the way it rubbed against people was like a petty cat.

But Qin Lifan happened to do this, patting his slender branches and green leaves with a soothing meaning.

Qin Fang squinted at the two of them, and saw some illusion that they had been dependent on each other for a long time.

After a while, the cook arrived. He was probably brought over from the stove, with a spatula in his left hand and a green onion in his right hand. His confused expression revealed a clear sense of stupidity.

The cook is from the south. He is young and has a thin voice. When he opens his mouth, he speaks Wu Nong's soft words: Master, Master, what do you want me to do?

Qin Fang nodded his chin and said, "Well, this guy ate too many mutton dishes last night and felt very uncomfortable when he got up in the morning." I know it's not a problem with your craftsmanship, but I just want to ask where you buy the mutton used for cooking?

The cook thought for a while: all the ingredients in the house are purchased and brought to the kitchen by a dedicated person. The mutton is right. The mutton was not on yesterday's purchase list. The housekeeper passed by the market when he went home to look after the children and saw an old man selling it. I bought fresh mutton. I saw that the meat was of good quality, so I bought half of it. It happened that Master Lingcao was greedy, so I took out half of it and made it for him to eat.

Yun Buyi leaned on Qin Lifan's neck and heard him ask: Where is the remaining mutton?

Still in the kitchen.

Hearing this, Qin Fang put out the fire on the stove, stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go and take a look."

Chapter two

The kitchen is located in the backyard. A winding path leads to the deep end of the grass and trees. The morning light shines on the old locust tree and casts a clear shadow, hitting the moss marks on the eaves.

When the cook walked into the kitchen, there was another small door on the right, which was a small warehouse dedicated to storing ingredients. He took out the key and was about to open the door, but a smell seeping out of the crack in the door made him stop.

At that time, most of Yun Buyi's body was hooked on Qin Lifan's shoulder, leaving only one branch to put on the steamed stuffed bun with mushrooms and fresh bamboo shoots. If it touched, a piece would be missing, as if there was an invisible mouth chewing one bite at a time, not forgetting to share. A humanoid straw frame for himself, Qin Lifan.

Qin Fang regarded himself as a gentleman and advocated staying away from the kitchen and not entering the kitchen. He only put his hands outside the door while Shi Shiran looked in.

The cook's pause caught the attention of the three of them.

Yun Buyi gnawed on the bun and asked vaguely: What's wrong?

It smells like rotting meat.

The cook said, and hesitantly opened the door of the small warehouse. The next moment, a rotten stench of dead branches and leaves that had been soaked in wet mud for hundreds of years spurted out. It was so thick and thick that it seemed to form an entity, and it breathed directly at the door. The two of them slapped each other in the face and beat them until they staggered.

The strong nausea felt like a wave crashing down. Yun Buyi threw the bun away and lay down on the edge of the basin and started twitching again. If he had eyes, he would have been turned to the sky by now.

Qin Lifan and the cook retched, then quickly exited the kitchen while covering their noses.

However, the stench like a biochemical weapon could not be dissipated by the wind, and still followed them like a shadow, chasing them, making the two of them look hideous and miserable.

Seeing this, Qin Fang shook his sleeves and hooked the two of them behind him as if he was well prepared. He then waved his sleeves and took out a jar of plum blossom snow water, and poured the still hot water into the kitchen door.

The moment the snow fell to the ground, it seemed as if wind was blowing from the snow-capped mountains. The cold fragrance came on the wind and filled the air with steam, forcibly suppressing the rotten stench in the air.

He saved Yun Buyi's life, and also saved the lives of his son and the cook.

Yun Buyi reluctantly stopped the discomfort of wanting to vomit but could not, and spread out three leaves in the basin, and the twitching of his body gradually calmed down.

He raised his head and looked into the small warehouse. Under the candlelight, he saw a ball of dark muddy water where the mutton was originally stored. It squirmed and shrank slightly like a living thing, emitting a stench that hit his soul.

Yun Buyi was startled, and suddenly stood up a branch, with fine needle-like hairs standing on the stems and leaves, like a small animal that had been provoked to explode.

Qin Lifan even jumped directly into his old father's arms holding the porcelain basin.

Dad! That's that's

The cook listened to what he said for a long time with no result. He couldn't help pinching his nose and asked angrily: "What is that?"

Qin Fang's nose twitched. Although he disliked the smell of his son, he still hugged him.

With his eyelids lowered, he looked at Yun Buyi, who was full of hair, and asked, "Does it look familiar?"

certainly. Yun Buyi's tone was cold. When I was brought back by Li Fan, I was wrapped in this thing.

Yun Buyi suffered from illness in his previous life and had a rare free day, so he rushed to the temple nearest to the hospital without stopping, knelt in front of the Buddha and made a wish.

In the next life, you can be a cow, a horse, or grass on the roadside, and don't be a human again. You won't be able to die happily.

We, the Buddha, were merciful and fulfilled his wish.

So as soon as he closed and opened his eyes on the operating table, he traveled to this world and became a weak grass in the mud of the deep mountains and forests, suffering from the wind, rain, sun and the putrid smell of the swamp every day.

fine.

Yun Buyi had a death wish at that time. When Qin Lifan dug him out, he was using his spiritual power to fish out a broken blade sunk in the mud, trying to chop off a hundred of his grass roots.

Fortunately, Qin Lifan arrived in time, and he happened to be destined for this wild spiritual grass, so he took him home, washed it, planted it in a porcelain pot worth thousands of gold, and stayed with him for three full months before he could adjust his mental state. Normal, it saved his life.

After escaping from the sea of suffering, Yun Buyi no longer sought life and death, gradually adapted to the current life, and learned about the situation of the world from Qin Lifan.

The place he lives in is an imaginary dynasty named Tianyi. Tianyi's 2G network speed is not good, but the dynasty with the same pronunciation as its name has a long history and has been passed down for three hundred years. The contemporary emperor is diligent and loves the people, but does not like pleasure. It is estimated that he can continue to be a king for dozens or hundreds of years.

Beyond the mortal dynasty, there is a world of fairies, demons, and ghosts. The two are like two parallel lines. Most of the time, they are clearly distinct. Occasionally, they intersect, leaving behind some beautiful and mysterious legends, such as those used to scare children who refuse to sleep at night. Ghost stories, and some existence that exists and is acceptable in both worlds.

The head of the Qin family, Qin Fang, and his child Qin Lifan are the descendants of immortals from one side, and Yun Buyi's true body, spirit grass, is one of the creatures that exists in both sides at the same time.

God cooperated and fate brought them together to meet each other in this vast world.

Yun Buyi found out that he was a spiritual grass after meeting Qin Lifan. The variety was unknown. He was born with spiritual intelligence and could practice cultivation. His body was invulnerable. Most of them were cultivated by wealthy families. He had the responsibility of looking after their homes and courtyards, so he was not bad at all. On the street, it is not uncommon.

Luo'an City is a prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River. There are many wealthy merchants, so there are naturally more spiritual herbs than other places.

Yun Buyi is a little bit more special than his kind. He can speak and has slightly stronger spiritual power. In addition, he is often taken for walks on the streets by Qin Lifan. He is already a wonder in Luo'an City. The people look at him as if they were looking at the street. As a child, this is one of the reasons why he skipped the psychological imbalance stage of identity change and quickly accepted reality.

Despite this, Yun Buyi always had a problem in his heart that he never mentioned to others, which was the swamp where he once lived.

In the early days of time travel, Yun Buyi was tortured by the swamp environment to the point of intermittent coma and continuous madness. He only felt that the swamp was hot and sticky, and the smell filled the sky, as scary as hell, but he did not find anything weird about it.

Later, he was taken away from there by Qin Lifan. After he regained consciousness, he realized that something was wrong with his condition at that time.

The stench of the swamp seems to be no ordinary odor. Compared with the damage to the sense of smell, the smell is more like an erosion and attack on the spirit and soul. That's why he became like that and used it unconsciously. A force that he didn't even know existed tried to commit suicide.

Yun Buyi didn't like to escape. After realizing that something was wrong with his previous state, he immediately asked Qin Lifan to take him back to the swamp to find out what happened.

However, the strange thing is that the mountain is still there, but the swamp is gone.

To be precise, the place where the swamp was originally turned into a purple bamboo forest. There are trails in the forest and many people pass by. Everyone who passes by here says that this is a bamboo forest and there has never been a swamp.

Not to mention the swamp, the soil on this mountain is so solid that even if it rains heavily for three consecutive days, it will not accumulate a larger muddy puddle.

Qin Lifan was greatly shocked. Yun Buyi was so shocked that the grass stems almost became lignified and numb.

Since then, Yun Buyi has been paying attention to the news about the swamps around Luo'an City, consciously or unconsciously. Qin Fang and Qin Lifan also made inquiries for him, but to no avail.

To this day, this muddy water appears in the kitchen and in their eyes.

Are you sure that thing looked like mutton yesterday?

Qin Lifan's trembling question made Yun Buyi come back to his senses. It was okay if he didn't come back to his senses. As soon as he came to his senses, he realized what he had eaten yesterday. The roots were violently twitched, and the grass blades were wilted on the porcelain basin. The edges look like dried seaweed.

The cook's face turned green because he also drank a bowl of soup.

Yes, yes! He stammered, "I cut the meat, roasted it, made the soup, and tasted it!"

Before he could finish speaking, he couldn't help but ran to the side and supported the locust tree and vomited.

Yun Buyi looked at his hunched back, feeling envious of his father for a moment.

He also wanted to vomit happily!

Qin Fang stared at the black mud, frowning and not knowing what he was thinking. Suddenly, his neck tightened. He looked down and saw that the debt collector Mimosa stretched out its branches and wrapped itself around him, trying to strangle him with a force that might have caused him to die. Tied around his neck, the three blades of grass curled up pitifully at their tips, lowering their heads and begging for help:

I can't survive, please help me!

Qin Fang:

At this time, his wrist was also grabbed by someone, and he shook it slightly. When he turned his head, he met the round dog eyes of his silly son.

Dad

Qin Fangqiang maintained his aloof and gentlemanly demeanor, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, shook it open, and threw it forward without any fireworks.

The handkerchief fluttered and fell onto the muddy water. The four corners were neatly retracted, wrapping it up completely and returning it to Qin Fang's hands.

Qin Fang sighed while holding the cloth, and looked at Yun Buyi: Will you still be greedy in the future?

Yun Buyi lifted the middle leaf and whispered: "Greedy."

He had missed so many delicious meals due to illness in his previous life, and it was really difficult for him to control his mouth.

Glancing at his stupid son who was snickering, Qin changed his question expressionlessly: Will you eat randomly in the future?

Yun Buyi shook his head without hesitation: No, no!

Qin Fang hummed softly, tapped his branches with his fingers, and waited for him to take them back before leading them back to the study.

Of course, before leaving, he left a jar of plum blossom snow water for the cook and let him take a sip. The rest was used to clean the kitchen and small warehouse, thus saving the life of the child who was about to vomit and collapse.

After all the fuss, it was already bright.

The golden maple leaves hung brilliantly at the window in the sunshine. Qin Fang asked Qin Lifan to move Yun Buyi to the desk under the window, while he went behind the bookshelf to get a handful of dry firewood, added it to the bottom of the stove, and rekindled the fire to boil water. .

Basking in the autumn morning sun, Yun Buyi slowly absorbed the plum blossom snow water that had just been poured into the basin. He stretched out his rolled branches to catch a maple leaf and played with it. A dense feeling of laziness and joy oozed from his bones, which made him energetic. Relaxed, sleepy.

The fire under the stove started to burn, crackling along the wood grain of the dry wood and dead branches, and hazy smoke like mist and clouds floated up.

When Yun Buyi was confused, he suddenly smelled the fragrance drifting in the wind and felt slightly familiar. With a little thought, the body that had been lying down with Feng Ye in his arms straightened up again.

Qin Lifan went to take a shower and change clothes. He and Qin Fang were the only ones in the study.

Qin Fang rolled up his sleeves and cleaned his hands. When he heard a hissing sound, he didn't even raise his eyelids.

what happened again?

Yun Buyi didn't answer. He took out a grass stem and swam towards the small red clay stove on the other side of the table. Before he could get close, he was pinched by a wet hand.

Qin Fang was helpless: Can you be more calm and have some consciousness of being a grass? The spiritual fire I lit can burn everything, and is it something you can get close to?

Yun Buyi wrapped his arm around his wrist: Qin Fang, what kind of firewood did you use to boil the water? I've smelled this scent before!

The small mountains that grow beside Songtao Lake smell like rosin after being exposed to the sun for a while. Some children from high-ranking families thought the scent of pine was too cold, so they used Xiaochongshan instead. Ordinary people couldn't afford it. Where have you smelled it?

Qin Fang didn't take it seriously and asked casually, assuming that he happened to smell it when he passed by while walking on the street, or when Qin Lifan took him to visit a wealthy family.

Yun Buyi pointed to the steamed buns not far away: a breakfast stall in Jioling Lane.

Qin Fang:?

Shao Zhongshan early?

Whose child is trying to bully a young man into poverty?

third chapter

The sun shines into Zi Ling Lane, and the clear shadows under the old locust trees look like a natural jade screen.

The stall had been closed early, and the young stall owner hid the table, chairs, and stove behind a tree. He was surrounded by acquaintances and neighbors, and he was not worried about being walked in by passers-by. He carried the remaining dry firewood on his back and a drawer of steamed buns stuffed with cabbage and pork that he had reserved specially, and walked back home in all directions.

The firewood door was ajar, and the sound of him pushing the door woke up the black cat sleeping under the eaves. The cat raised its head and followed him into the house with a pair of green eyes. It didn't lie back to its original position until the door was closed.

After a while, the door opened a crack, and a porcelain bowl was handed to the black cat. There were several meat balls in it, which were the fillings of peeled buns.

The man closed the door again, his shoulders slumped slightly, and he turned around and took a few steps forward. A beam of sunlight slanted at his feet from the side window. The light and darkness were clearly separated, and he was firmly blocked in the latter. .

He looked forward, and there was a tablet placed under the wall opposite the door. There was no name written on it, but there were incense, candles, and tea fruits. There was thick ashes in the incense burner, which showed that the incense must be burning day and night in front of the tablet, and he was particularly attentive.

The man stepped forward to collect the tributes that had already cooled down, placed the nine buns on three plates, and lit the incense candles again. Immediately he took an iron basin, folded the dry firewood he brought home into long and thin sections, lit them one by one, and put them into the basin to burn.

For a moment, the room reverberated with the crisp sound of broken branches and burning. The light smoke drifted away with the scent of pine, and the clouds and clouds generally surrounded the memorial tablet. It was not like a memorial ceremony, but like what was recorded in ancient books, when ancient emperors used incense to bring back souls. The scene of the beloved wife falling into a dream and renewing their relationship.

Although the legend is just a legend, this scene is just a likeness.

Meow

A soft meow sounded outside the door. The man who had been silently burning the branches came back to his senses. He turned around slightly and saw that the ajar door had been pushed open by the black cat at some point, and the round cat's head rubbed into the crack of the door. , emerald-like eyes stared straight at him.

Whether it was an illusion or not, he seemed to see worry and helplessness in the cat's eyes.

you

Knock knock knock

The man's expression moved slightly, and he was about to say something, but was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

His eyes flashed, and he returned to silence. He stood up, opened the door, stepped out, and closed the door again. His movements were light and fast, and even the cat, which was famous for its agility, could not react.

But the black cat was not interested in the things in the house. He sat by the door with his tail curled up, watching him walk towards the wood door, holding the dead vine that served as the handle and pulling it open.

There was a soft creaking sound, and the wind and sunlight blew the golden dust into the threshold, covering the moss marks around the man's feet.

Black Cat narrowed his eyes and saw two figures, one tall and one short, standing outside the door.

Gao Qingjun Duanfang held a square handkerchief in his hand and slowly wiped his fingers, like wiping a delicate jade.

She is short and charming, and the hair tie opens two symmetrical corners on the top of her head, like light butterfly wings or short, pointed cat ears.

The latter held a valuable porcelain basin in his arms. A mimosa plant in the basin was swaying in the wind. The leaves on both sides were rolled up against the stem in the middle. The arrogance of holding his head high and his chest akimbo?

The black cat blinked in confusion, then retracted its four paws and crouched into a ball under its belly.

Mimosa is a creature that cats really can’t understand.

Master Qin, Mr. Lingcao. The man looked at the visitor outside the door with a confused look on his face, Master Qin?

As soon as the three words Master Qin came out, Yun Buyi couldn't help but laugh out loud. The image of Qin Fang in his mind suddenly had a beard and a general's belly, and the comedy effect was full.

Qin Lifan covered his mouth and laughed, only to be suppressed by Qin Fangheng's glance, his round eyes full of smiles.

Qin Fang endured it again and again, but in the end he didn't lose his temper. He patted himself calmly and corrected patiently: "If you are not a member of my Qin family, please call me Mr. Qin."

Feel sorry. The man lowered his eyelids and bowed his hands to apologize. I wonder why the three of them came to the place?

His manner of saluting was elegant, and his words were refined, which was incompatible with the pyrotechnic status of a street vendor. It could even be said that he was completely different from the person he was when he left the stall.

Yun Buyi was often taken by Qin Lifan to buy steamed buns from him, but it was not until this moment that he noticed this trait in him.

However, Qin Fang was not surprised. He stared at the small mole under the man's eyes for a while and said suddenly: The eldest son of the Yu family?

The man's eyelashes fluttered and fell back: Mr. Qin recognized the wrong person. I am just a breakfast vendor in Jiaoling Lane. My surname is not Yu. My name is Aqi.

As he said this, without waiting for Qin Fang to say anything else, he put his hand on the door and closed the door to thank the guests.

Hey, kitten, please move your position.

When the three people at the door were about to enter a stalemate, a clear and deep young voice suddenly came from the door. The man who called himself A Qi twisted his head as if he was electrocuted, and saw a branch of Yun Bu Yi swimming to the door without knowing when. , standing up in front of the black cat, speaking human words.

The black cat stared at him cross-eyed with its two big eyes, its ears pressed down to both sides, looking surprised and novel.

Ah Qi didn't seem to realize that he should step forward to stop him at this time, so Yun Buyi ignored his gaze and went straight around the black cat's left ear, hung a piece of it down and waved it in front of the cat's eyes, and discussed with it:

I smell it. Xiaochongshan is being burned in the house. The smell is very fragrant. Now give me a bowl of rice and I can eat three bowls of it. How about you let me go in and smell it again, just as an appetizer before dinner?

Meow

The black cat twitched the tips of its ears and couldn't help but stretched out its hands to pull at his branches, but its buttocks were firmly squatting at the door and wouldn't move.

Yun Buyi still wanted to fight for it, but Ah Qi came over aggressively. He originally wanted to grab his branches and leaves, but when he reached out halfway, he was worried about Qin Fang and Qin Lifan, so he turned a corner and picked up the black cat and put it into his arms. .

The moment Maomao fell into his arms, Aqi was startled, and then he glanced at Hengyun with a stern look. The small mole under his eyes became scarier and scarier as his anger surged, almost turning into droplets of blood.

Mr. Qin, please take care of your spiritual herbs. Aqi said in a deep voice, even if you are the richest man, you should not allow it to do whatever it wants in the homes of ordinary people!

Well, what you are saying is that I am not disciplined well.

Qin Fang smiled and knocked on the main stem of Yun Buyi. The movement was light and the sound was crisp. He couldn't have mastered this technique without ten years of experience in knocking wooden fish.

Who taught you to break into a house without any reason? Come back quickly. Xiaochongshan's thousand gold can be exchanged for one, and it's not a rare thing. If you like the taste, I'll just ask someone to buy a car.

Listen to what this disgusting ghost said. Is it human?

Yun Buyi's two leaves huddled in the basin clacked against his fingers, but the one that swam out floated into the air, looking at the black cat in A Qi's arms.

The black cat looked at him for a moment, blinked, and curled the corners of his eyes slightly, like two arcs of laughter.

After getting the answer, Yun Buyi used a branch to make a smiley face in the air, then returned to the door and wrapped it around Qin Lifan's shoulders and neck.

how?

Qin Lifan pressed his leaf against his and shook his eyes.

Two branches stick out from the pot, O on the left and K on the right.

Although I don’t know the origin of this pattern, Yun Buyi has used it before, which means it definitely means it.

Seeing this, Qin Lifan nodded and walked behind his father.

Qin Fang had been observing A Qi secretly. When he saw his expression relaxed, he didn't want to say more and was about to close the door while holding the cat, so he took advantage of his walking to say the last words:

I will go to Songtao Lake this evening. If necessary, you can find me there.

Before he finished speaking, the firewood door slammed shut, and the rising ashes choked him with a cough.

Qin Fang sniffed, and sure enough he heard the laughter of two little heartless kids behind him.

The banks of Songtao Lake are covered with pines and cypresses. There are many small islands of sand and sand in the lake, and they are covered with small emerald-colored mountains that are half a person tall. Under a sunny day, the wind blows and the shadows of the trees fall on the waves all over the lake. The sound of wind and water is heard, seamlessly.

It was evening, the sun set into the water, and the lake surface was filled with sparkling golden light. The water waves surrounded the green trees and green mountains, and people walking there felt like they were entering a painting.

Qin Fang bought a awning boat, folded a handkerchief and made a little man stand on the bow of the boat, and let him drive the boat across the lake.

Yun Bu Yi rolled his eyes inwardly, hung his whole body on Qin Lifan, swept away the whole plate of Yun Pian Cake that Qin Fang was about to grab, and started eating.

I just smelled outside the door, and there was indeed the smell of Xiaochongshan in the house, as well as the stench of black mud. The former is heavier, but the latter has a distinct presence that is difficult to ignore, so I still discovered it.

Qin Lifan nodded: Yes, I noticed it too. The smell is really special, as if a person is about to die, and the soul has been rotting into mud in the body for many days. It is not just a simple smell, but also an impact on the spirit.

The term "spiritual god" is not commonly used by mortals. It was a habit he picked up when he followed Qin Fang and lived in a place where immortals lived.

To be honest, it was not a pleasant day. Even the occasional inertial recall made Qin Lifan feel depressed.

Yun Buyi glanced at him, stretched out a branch and touched his head, and asked Qin Fang: What did you call that Aqi just now? The eldest son of the Yu family?

Qin Fang picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake: Yes. He looks very much like the eldest son of the Yu family that I have met before. Yu Qifang, please don't look at me like that. Although his name is a bit feminine, that person is a real man.

Yun Buyi: Where is the remaining one point of the nine-point statue?

Clothes, temperament. Qin Fang nodded at the hem of his clothes. If one day I take off my brocade clothes and put on coarse linen clothes, and then I restrain my sharpness and hide my character like he does, the final result will be like him. I have met him several times before, have you ever noticed? Do you think he looks good?

Yun Buyi thought for a moment and gasped.

Not to mention the time when he bought steamed buns before, even during the meeting just now, he didn't notice at all that this man had a delicate and beautiful face, and the only thing he paid attention to was the mole.

Qin Lifan looked at him and smiled awkwardly.

Qin Fang chuckled: Don't be sorry, you didn't notice it, it means that they are disguised well, not because you are blind.

Unexpectedly, the fierce Baba took away the half-eaten sweet-scented osmanthus cake and threw it into the lake to feed the fish.

Qin Fang didn't take it seriously and replaced it with a new one. This time he became serious: We don't know what black mud is now, so we can't rush into it. Let's call him Aqi. If he is really from the Yu family, there are many ways to escape, and even I can't catch him. If I scare him and scare people away, the clue will be lost.

After Yun Bu Yi finished eating the Yun Pian cake, he picked up the teapot and poured it evenly into the basin: "I know, so I found another breakthrough."

Qin Fang had already expected it: Do you think that cat will definitely follow my words and come here?

Yun Buyi slipped under his sleeve and took out a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake: It will, we agreed with our eyes. And, who said it was an ordinary cat?

The moment he looked at the black cat, he was sure that he heard its heartfelt voice.

Save him, please.

It was a human voice, with the texture of a half-grown boy, somewhat similar to Qin Lifan, so similar that he couldn't bear to refuse.

However, rather than saying it was a voice from the heart, it would be more appropriate to say that it was an obsession.

Yun Buyi's real body has two talents, one is to see or hear the obsession of living beings, and the other is to purify filth. Because its purification ability is still in its growth stage, it can only be used part-time as an air purifier and sewage purifier in a short period of time. The first talent is to reach full level at birth.

Therefore, the voice that can be heard by him will only be the former.

He was thinking about it when suddenly there was a sound on the bow of the ship, and a black cat with green eyes stepped into the cabin, shook its wet fur gracefully, raised its head, and happened to meet him face to face.

Qin Fang and Qin Lifan stared at the cat, and the cat stared at him.

After a while, the black cat walked forward, tilted his head, and rubbed against Yun Buyi's largest leaf.

Yun Buyi:

My damn thing is not toilet paper! I'll beat you again!

Chapter Four

After a while, Yun Buyi put a leaf on his hips, and stretched out another leaf to rub the black cat's fur. The middle leaf was twisted to one side, protruding a mouth that looked upright.

Unfortunately, even if he was willing to help, the leaves were still too small. Seeing that the black cat couldn't clean it after rubbing it for a long time, Qin Lifan borrowed a handkerchief from his old father who was watching the fun and wiped the fur on the cat's back.

Probably sensing that he meant no harm, the black cat moved to his feet and squatted down, tilting his chin slightly, allowing him to move.

Qin Fang held his chin up and lowered his eyes, smiling mockingly or sighing, he didn't know whether it was mocking or sighing: Ha, the little kitten knows how to enjoy it.

Yun Buyi shook off the water drops on the leaves and passed around Qin Lifan's shoulder. The tip of the branch dangled in front of the black cat's eyes.

Hey bro, look at me. His tone was cheerful, don't just enjoy it, remember what you came here to do?

The Qin family father and son were used to hearing his strange accent, so they didn't even raise their eyes, but the black cat stared at him unblinkingly with its round eyes open, with both curiosity and scrutiny in its eyes.

He was evaluating whether Yun Buyi was trustworthy, and he even made no secret of the thought that someone who was not of my race would have a different heart.

But facing the two human races, it seemed to have no such concerns.

Yun Buyi saw through the cat's thoughts at a glance. The branches were wrapped around its neck, and the leaves stood up in front of it, assuming an intimate and dangerous posture.

The black cat's body visibly stiffened for a moment, and the tense muscles were almost a precursor to launching an attack.

But it brought the tip of its nose close to Yun Buyi and took a sniff, then suddenly relaxed.

Meow cough.

The soft meow was followed by a cough. The black cat raised its paw and lightly touched the grass stems of Yun Bu Yi, and uttered a low and sweet human voice: Sorry, it's about my life, I have to be so cautious. Please forgive me if there is any offense.

After saying that, it stood up and saluted Yun Buyi's real body with clasped fists in the basin.

Needless to say, this ceremony was a bit cute. Besides being cute, his charm and demeanor are also somewhat similar to that of A Qi.

Just like a mold.

Yun Buyi had a branch wrapped around the black cat's neck. The two empty branches were supposed to drink tea and eat snacks, but he was not surprised by the scene in front of him.

Creatures without spiritual intelligence will not have obsessions, no matter how smart they are.

Obsession belongs exclusively to people. It is born from people's love, hate, anger and ignorance, and is destroyed by people's love, hate, anger and ignorance.

So the moment he heard the black cat's voice, Yun Buyi knew its identity. It was a human, at least it should have been.

Qin Lifan put away the handkerchief with some cat hair stuck on it and put it into his sleeve, ready to take it back and wash it clean: Do you believe we are willing to help you?

The black cat nodded, every little movement extremely graceful: After transforming into a raccoon slave, my perception of good and evil has become very keen. I can feel that you have no ill intentions and sincerely want to know my troubles and solve my difficulties. Although these are all for other purposes, that purpose does not conflict with me and will not harm us.

It paused and looked helpless: I guess you have already guessed the reason why I asked for help.

Yun Buyi sighed: You guessed it, it has something to do with your master, ahem, and Aqi, right? You want us to save him?

Black Cat looked at him deeply: Yes. He is practicing a kind of evil magic. If he is not careful, he will drag the entire city of Luo'an to hell with him.

When Qin Fang heard this, he raised half of his eyebrows: "Tell me about going to hell in detail."

Before he finished speaking, Yun Buyi's branch hit his knees, and he immediately changed his words: talk about the magic in detail.

Qin Fang's unfunny joke made the black cat dumbfounded, but because of this, it was able to loosen the tight string in its heart and ponder it carefully for a while before speaking slowly.

It all started half a year ago, when I just fell ill and died.

The Yu family is the largest aristocratic family in the imperial capital of Xuanchen. It has been inherited for more than 500 years and has survived two dynasties. Our ancestors have produced countless princes and generals, and there are so many imperial edicts and imperial plaques in the ancestral hall that a separate courtyard is needed to place them. It is a legend in the human world.

However, no matter how legendary a family is, there will always be times when it declines. Yu Qifang and Yu Hengluo were unlucky and happened to catch up.

There are only a few members of the Yu family of this generation. Their fathers were on the wrong team because they participated in the struggle for the right to inherit the throne. After the emperor ascended the throne, they retired and died. The only person who can be the head of the large family is the eldest son Yu Qifang. Therefore, he fell into the trap early. He took over the position of head of the family from his father and took care of family affairs single-handedly.

Yuhengluo is his younger brother. The two grew up together, supporting and caring for each other. They live and die together and are each other's most important people. Yu Qifang decided to take charge of the family, so naturally Yu Hengluo would not be left alone.

He was not good at chores and had no understanding of people, but he was a martial arts prodigy, so he became his brother's deputy, responsible for protecting his safety. He also handled some dirty and dangerous work, shouldering all the troubles behind the scenes. .

The head of the Yu family is a brilliant gentleman and a wise adviser. The head's deputy is his sharpest knife and the only haven where he can let go of his guard and responsibility.

They are of one mind and therefore indestructible.

The Yu family was originally in decline, but with the support of the two of them, they could barely maintain some of the glory of their ancestors. However, Yu Hengluo's death six months ago was like a thunderbolt. Not only did it cut off half of the backbone of the Yu family, but it also caused Yu Qifang to break down and run away. After leaving all the family property to her nephew, she took his body away with her. Never seen again.

Black Cat said: Half a year ago, a branch of the Yu family in Yuanzhou sent a letter to the main family, saying that strange diseases occurred frequently in the family and most of the people died, and asked the main family to send someone to investigate and send some supplies. Because things were urgent, I personally asked Ying to go there with supplies. Unexpectedly, I found out after I arrived that this branch had died three years ago, and not even a dog was left. It was impossible to report to the owner's family. Send a message for help. Before I had time to investigate clearly, I and the rest of the people traveling with me contracted a strange disease and died within three days.

Later, about two months ago, I woke up from this raccoon slave's body. When I opened my eyes, I saw my brother lifting me out of the muddy water and carrying me home. It looked at one of its front paws, its pads contracted, and its sharp claw tip poked out.

Before I could think clearly about whether to tell him my identity, I discovered that he had set up a memorial tablet for me in the house. The incense was burning day and night, but his name was not engraved on it. And in the dark room under the memorial tablet, there is my body sealed in an ice coffin.

As soon as she recalled the scene when she saw her body, Yu Hengluo felt mixed emotions. She felt sad for her brother's decadence and persistence, but also felt a little secretly happy.

After dying for so long, the people he misses are always thinking about him. This is undoubtedly a huge comfort to the deceased who has returned from the netherworld and is homeless.

Because of this, he didn't want to recognize Aqi, didn't want to arouse the sadness that he had finally calmed down, or even experience the pain of eternal separation between heaven and man again.

Yuhengluo felt that this was inappropriate, so she looked up with some guilt to see Yun Buyi's reaction. Unexpectedly, she was caught off guard and met two pairs of excited eyes and a leaf that was straightened and tilted forward. She thought for a moment that He is a craftsman who plays, plays and sings on the stage, and they are the onlookers watching the music off the stage.

One of the non-human people even showed that he was ready to reward money at any time. It was really

As soon as Yuhengluo thought about it, he suddenly lost any sadness at all.

Yun Buyi rubbed one leaf against the bottom of another leaf: You said he practiced sorcery, what was the specific situation?

I am not sure. Yuhengluo shook his head. After practicing the evil spell, there would be a blood mark somewhere on the body. When used, a black mist would surround the body, resembling rotten sludge and emitting a foul odor. I don't know why he practiced this technique. I only know that as he practiced it longer, his temperament became more and more weird. In the past, he was gentle and kind to others, and he would not be as cold and rude as he was to you just now.

The black mist looks like mud and emits a foul odor.

The two looked at each other and quickly refined the key points. Then Qin Fang asked: Is the evil magic harmful to his body?

nature. Yu Hengluo sighed. Maybe you can't tell, but his soul has been eroded to the point of disgrace.

Qin Fang frowned and hesitated several times, but didn't say anything.

Yun Buyi took back the branches and leaves wrapped around Yu Hengluo's neck, crossed his arms and thought for a while: I have a guess, but it may not be right. You said he practiced this kind of evil magic to save you?

absurd! Yu Heng Luo instantly became hairy, and he refuted this outrageous idea without thinking. After death, people either enter reincarnation or dissipate into heaven and earth. It is a taboo of heaven to resurrect the dead. People who have had this idea since ancient times have fallen. A fate that is beyond redemption. My brother is extremely intelligent and does not have such delusions!

It was so nervous that it seemed that it was not the object to be resurrected, but a defeated dog and cat that had failed to resurrect and jumped out of defense.

Don't rush to conclusions. Yun Buyi glanced at the sky. It was very good. God gave him face. It was getting dark soon. We might as well visit your brother's house at night to see what he was going to do.

Yuhengluo pressed his ears.

Qin Lifan smiled and held his chin: Don't you dare? Still not willing?

Yu Heng stood up and ran out of the cabin with small cat steps:

Walk!

Yun Buyi high-fived Qin Lifan.

The stimulating method is really useful!

The willow branches above the moon shine like water.

Aqi stood on the porch for a long time without waiting for the black cat to come back, feeling an indescribable loss in his heart.

The plush and warm feeling when I hugged it before still remained in my arms, but now there was only a cold feeling.

Just like he was holding his little brother's cold bones.

Seeing that the hour was approaching, the black cat was still missing. Aqi could not wait any longer, so he had to leave the firewood door open and turned back to the room.

The night was dark, and he didn't notice a slender shadow swimming through the weeds in front of the courtyard, climbing up against the wall and under the window, and sticking a piece of green leaf into the crack of the window, like an eye in the dark, watching his every move quietly. .

He sat in front of the empty memorial tablet for a long time, until all the incense and candles were burned out, then he propped up his rusty limbs, carefully but clumsily removed the tablet and the incense burner, and uncovered the wooden floor, revealing a rectangular hollow underneath.

An ice coffin was tightly embedded in the cavity. Under the ice shrouded in cold mist, there was a skeleton with all flesh and blood gone, as white as jade.

Aqi didn't dare to open the coffin lid, just as he didn't dare to set his eyes on the skeleton, for fear that if he accepted the reality, he would wake up from the dream of self-deception.

He just stretched out his hand to cover the ice coffin in a dull and indifferent manner, using his internal energy to

The next second, thick black mist spewed out of his body, twisted into strands in mid-air, and became entangled, surrounding him like a giant python.

When the fog is too thick, it takes on a glossy and dark color like sludge. The majestic stench is like firecrackers on New Year's Eve. When it explodes, it fills up a whole house. It is smelly and harsh to the eyes. Even the soul is suffocated by this stench. There was a slight burning sensation.

Yun Buyi, who was on the windowsill, raised his body angrily.

That’s it!

It was this unlucky thing that made him go crazy and almost kill himself with a knife!

I have been looking for you for so long!

After the stealth was over, Yun Buyi suddenly exerted his strength, smashed through the window, rushed into the house like a runaway husky, and hit Aqi with a powerful and heavy blow in front of the door.
