Chapter 406 Dragon Slayer Boy (1)
Just as Fang Zhao's hands were hanging down, Fang Zhiqiang also felt a violent chill, as if a huge piece of hail fell from the sky, hitting his heart without bias, cold and painful.
The sound of the flute stopped abruptly. Fang Zhiliang suddenly opened her eyes, unable to hear the breathing in her ears, and unable to feel the warmth in her brother's eyes.
The inside was quiet. Fang Zhiliang was stunned for a moment, steadily holding his trembling hands, put Yu Xiao to his lips again, and steadily finished the second half of the song.
"The mooncakes are ready, fragrant and sweet." Zhou Nianping walked into the inner room with a plate of mooncakes.
Mu Changfeng and Lin Yuan each held a bowl of vegetable porridge and followed closely behind. When they saw Fang Zhao's appearance, they were stunned at first, and then sadness arose.
Zhou Nianping shook his hands and the plate of mooncakes fell to the ground.
He rushed in the kitchen, afraid that it would delay the time and that Fang Zhao would go on the road hungry.
He tried his best, but he was still one step late. The mooncakes were still hot, and the vegetable porridge was filled with the hot white air, so Fang Zhao could not eat it in one bite.
It's just a little bit worse, even if Fang Zhao can drink a small sip of vegetable porridge, it's good.
"Brother, what else do you want to listen to? I can play it for you all night." Fang Zhiqiang asked softly.
Fang Zhao could no longer hear it, and could no longer answer. His eyes were half open and half closed, and a faint bitter smile was stiff at the corner of his mouth.
Fang Zhiqiang was not sad at all. She placed the jade flute on the wooden table beside her, held Fang Zhao down, tidied up her collar and sleeves, covered her quilt, and gently brushed her right hand on his eyes, and the eyes finally closed completely.
"You are all hungry, eat your fill first, and then talk about what's going on in the future." Fang Zhiqiang took out the sewn clothes and placed them on the head of the bed.
From beginning to end, her expression remained calm, her movements were orderly, gentle and slow, just like treating a sleeping person.
"I also want to ask you to scrub him and change into new clothes. Oh, by the way, I've been busy these days and forgot to make a pair of new shoes. Who can find me a piece of fabric?"
Lin Yuan took a package and said, "I bought a pair in the town."
"I think it's more thoughtful than before. How can someone who just left doesn't wear new shoes to go on the road? Thank you."
"My cousin shouldn't have told me the word "Thank you."
"Can you help me get a coffin?"
"It's ready soon...it's ready."
Fang Zhiliang said "Yes" and said, "Everything is ready, just wait to be buried in peace."
Lin Yuan whispered: "Is it good to return my cousin's cousin to Xianzhuang?"
Fang Zhiliang had this idea for a long time. Since her grandfather and grandmother didn't know that Fang Zhao had died at this time, she shouldn't have sent the coffin back to Yulong Pavilion or Wunu Gorge. She was isolated from the beautiful mountains and rivers of Xianzhuang, which was a good place.
"Cousin, cry if you want to cry, don't keep it in your heart." Lin Yuan was nervous and observed Fang Zhiliang's expression.
"There is no banquet that never ends. What's so sad?" Fang Zhiliang sat down calmly and gently stroked the jade flute on the table. "Whether it is a person or a thing, if it is a fate, it is my own, if it is a fate, it is lost. It should not be forced."
"Cousin, you are not confused, are you?"
"Hehe, life is rare and confused. You eat quickly and don't be hungry." Fang Zhiliang stretched and closed her eyes.
Lin Yuan turned around and looked at Mu Changfeng, full of fear and worry.
Fang Zhiliang's reaction was too strange. Lin Yuan would rather she cry loudly than see her almost numb calmness.
"There is no big deal about eating, come here and eat with me." Zhou Nianping's reaction was even more incredible. Not only did he not cry, he laughed twice, then sat on the ground immediately, picked up the mooncake, and bit off half of it in one bite.
Lin Yuan reached out to snatch it, "You are crazy, your mooncakes are dirty."
Zhou Nianping pushed Lin Yuan away and said, "Every needle and thread, I always have difficulty in material resources. Every porridge and meal should be thought to be hard to come by. A boy doesn't even understand this principle. Be careful that I will beat you up."
Lin Yuan watched him swallowing voraciously, and was at a loss. He looked at Fang Zhiran, who was leaning against a chair and closing his eyes to sleep, fearing that the two of them would be unable to bear the gains and losses.
Mu Changfeng pulled Lin Yuan to the outside, "They were both overly sad and confused. Let them be confused first. Let them be separated from each other sooner or later."
Lin Yuan was also heartbroken, but he learned to endure after experiencing the storm.
He lowered his head and sat on the threshold, saying, "I never thought that Senior Brother Zhou would be so sad."
Mu Changfeng sat down next to him and said, "I have always known that Senior Brother Zhou values his relatives, but I never expected that he would be so sad. A person who usually looks so inappropriate is better than anyone else when he is sad."
Lin Yuan looked back inside and said worriedly: "My cousin is already dead. Now that her cousin has passed away, will it stimulate her to think about it?"
"No." Mu Changfeng replied firmly, "Senior Brother Fang's departure deepened her hatred. She wouldn't be unable to think about it if Xue Honglian didn't die."
"Did you expect it long ago, so you've been so calm?"
"Hate is a powerful force that can destroy a person and inspire a person's will to survive. I believe my cousin is the latter."
"Will my cousin become a real demon?"
"No." Mu Changfeng replied without any doubt, "If the senior sister would become a real demon, she would not have the intention to let the old man spend his old age in peace. At that moment, I clearly saw her compassion."
Lin Yuan's heart fell to the ground and said, "For several days, my cousin is the most worried about. Once she has a mistake, the saddest thing is my mother and grandmother. They have been separated from their lives and deaths and have reached the limit of their endurance."
Mu Changfeng hugged Lin Yuan's shoulder and said, "Senior brother is becoming more and more steady. By the way, where did you find the old man's body?"
"Under the cliff." Lin Yuan remembered the scene at that time, and felt pity. "He broke into pieces and hurt my relatives badly, but I couldn't hate him."
"Before his death, the old man only wants to be a selfish and careless person in the next life, and he will follow the trend. His life experience is no longer a personal tragedy, but a tragedy in this world. He has condensed too many people alone, and has a tragedy in integrity and affection, but he has ended up with a tragic ending of a family that has been destroyed."
"We can be together, not in conjunction with each other. It is so difficult to say lightly. I understand Master Tai's original choice, but I feel disappointed."
Mu Changfeng smiled sourly, shoulder to shoulder with Lin Yuan, head to head.
Lin Yuan said: "Once upon a time, my mother often said that it is the most difficult to be a good person forever. At that time, I didn't understand, and thought my mother was confused because of eye disease. The more she experienced, she gradually understood that what my mother said was right. It is difficult to be a good person, and it is the most difficult to be a good person forever. Sometimes I feel very unconfident in myself. Will I eventually be passionate and completely cool down in the last half of my life?"
