Reunion
The eldest brother couldn't do it, so he asked Liu Muze: "Don't be afraid, kid, uncle will protect you. Tell uncle who he is to you."
"I don't know him." Liu Muzhe said.
The elder brother was furious when he heard this. Isn't this a human trafficker? He's also a pervert who molested children! The elder brother was also impatient. He didn't listen to any explanation and just started chopping.
Liu Muzhe took advantage of the chaos and ran away.
"You Liu, you have been bad since childhood!" The weirdo chased up and tied him tightly in his arms, dodging the attack of the eldest brother. Unfortunately, he had no weapons with him, so he was at a disadvantage when fighting with the man with a big knife with his bare hands.
He took aim at the sword on the next table, raised his toes and hooked it over: "Brother, can you lend me your sword?"
Fighting with swords is different. After just three or two rounds, the big brother's sword was directly knocked away.
Liu Muze was shocked when he saw the familiar sword technique. It was exactly the same as his master's. The talismans were the same, but even the sword technique was the same. This was too much of a coincidence. But the master clearly only accepted him as his disciple. Liu Muze asked, "Who are you?"
"At least I won't hurt you." The strange man smiled and rubbed his head, letting him sit on the stool and continue eating noodles. He said to the eldest brother, "Thank you for your help, brother. This child is indeed mine, but he has lost his memory and doesn't recognize me. We just competed, and my skills are not enough to kidnap children, don't worry!"
"Young brother, you are very strong. I admire you. Let me practice for a while and then I will compete with you!" said the eldest brother with a fist salute.
Liu Muze grabbed his hand and asked, "Do you know my master? Who are you to him?"
"I really don't know him. Let's eat first, and then I'll tell you slowly, okay?" the strange man coaxed.
Liu Muzhe was also hungry, so he immediately picked up the bowl and stuffed noodles into his mouth. He was very eager to know what the relationship between the man in front of him and his master was. Maybe his master asked him to take care of him, so that he would not have to wander alone anymore.
"Eat slowly, I'm not going to steal it from you!"
Liu Muze quickly finished his noodles, puffed out his cheeks and said, "Can you tell me now?"
The strange man picked him up and said, "I actually came from the future. You were already grown up by then, and I was your lover."
Liu Muzhe was confused and stared at him in bewilderment.
"Okay, I won't hurt you, okay? My main mission here is to take you to eat delicious food and play with you! Now that you're full, let's go play!"
Liu Muzhe didn't know the man's true origin and purpose, but he was sure that he had no ill intentions. Someone took him out to eat and play, and Liu Muzhe was extremely happy, following him happily.
"What's your name?"
"Ye Jingan."
Liu Muze was stunned. He seemed to have an impression of the name. He seemed to be a very important person. "Are you really my future lover?"
"Of course."
"But you are a man. How can two men get married?"
"You'll know later."
Liu Muze wanted to continue asking, but a bunch of large candied haws stopped him. Liu Muze loved candied haws the most, but they were very expensive, even more expensive than malt sugar. Usually only the children of wealthy families could afford them, so he could only dream about them.
Now that he was eating the candied haws he had been dreaming of, Liu Muzhe didn't have the confidence to think about anything else. He held up the candied haws that was as long as his arm, licked it twice, and looked at it for a few seconds, fearing that it would be eaten up quickly.
This strange man took him from the beginning to the end of the street, buying him all the delicious and fun things along the way. With his arms full of things, Ye Jingan asked, "It's almost time. Where are you going to sleep tonight?"
"The City God Temple on the eastern hilltop." Liu Muzhe said.
"Can you take me to see it?" Ye Jing'an said.
"Yeah!" Liu Muzhe took his hand and ran towards the City God Temple.
Ye Jing'an also knew that Brother Liu slept in a temple at night when he was a child, but when he arrived at the City God Temple, he was dumbfounded. This could not be called a temple at all. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a shabby thatched house. There were several big holes in the roof. How could people live in it?
Liu Muzhe explained to him that the City God Temple had been abandoned and no one would usually rest here at night, so it was relatively safe for him to live here alone.
Liu Muzhe was completely exhausted after eating and drinking today, so he lay down on a pile of straw to rest.
Ye Jingan stood there with a frown on his face. The straw was so thin that it was no different from sleeping on the ground. There was no blanket either. How cold would it be at night?
Liu Muzhe lay down for a while, then opened his eyes and saw Ye Jing'an standing at the door and refusing to come in. He quickly stood up and made the bed, thinking of asking him to sit for a while, but this man was generous and judging by his clothes, he should be a wealthy man, so he would probably dislike this dilapidated temple.
"I'm sorry, I don't have a home, and I don't have anything delicious to treat you."
"What are you sorry for?" Ye Jing'an hugged him tightly in his arms. "Blame me. I was eating at the restaurant upstairs when you were bullied. I didn't notice you and made you suffer."
Liu Muzhe didn't understand what he meant, but he was used to the strange way this weirdo spoke. But this weirdo was really nice, especially to him, as nice as his master.
"You..." Liu Muze hesitated for a moment before finally asking, "Will you leave?"
"What?" Ye Jing'an didn't quite understand what he meant by leaving.
"You are very good. I am happy to be with you. Will you leave me?" Liu Muzhe lowered his head and twisted his fingers. He actually knew the answer. Of course he would leave. His master once said that he would be with him forever, but he left in the end. What's more, he left a stranger he met by chance.
"I won't leave you, never." Ye Jing'an touched his face.
Liu Muzhe raised his eyes suddenly, then lowered them in disappointment. It was forever again. There was no forever in this world. They were all deceiving him.
"Brother Liu, look at me." Ye Jing'an held his face up. "I'm sorry that I couldn't protect and take care of you during this time, and that you suffered a lot. I know this lonely life is hard to endure, but you must live well, okay? There are two people who love you very much waiting for you in the future."
"Ah?" Liu Muzhe was completely confused. Before he could ask any further questions, he saw the body of the strange man in front of him gradually becoming transparent.
"Brother Liu, it's time, please wake up?" Ye Jing'an said with a smile.
"Don't leave!" Liu Muze threw himself into his arms, but his grasp was empty. The strange man gradually dissipated like a translucent white soul...
"Ye Jingan!"
Liu Muzhe sat up suddenly, took two breaths in shock, looked around hurriedly, and saw the figure he had been thinking about.
At this time, Ye Jing'an was sitting by the bed, maintaining the gesture of casting a spell. After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief and slowly opened his eyes. Seeing that Liu Muze had woken up, he smiled and asked, "Brother Liu, is the malt sugar delicious?"
Liu Muzhe was stunned for a moment, then suddenly rushed over and hugged him.
"Okay, okay, don't be sad. This spell has a limited duration and I can't always be with you. Next time I'll figure out how to extend the time." Ye Jing'an coaxed.
Liu Muzhe threw the man onto the bed, held his head and kissed him, silently confessing all the grievances he had suffered over the years. He wished he could swallow the man under him whole and never let him leave.
Ye Jing'an's face was soaked with tears. Seeing that Brother Liu was out of breath, he slowly pushed him away, wiped away the tears that had wet his eyelashes with his fingertips, and coaxed him, "Don't be sad, okay? It's all my fault. I made you suffer. Hit me twice to vent your anger!"
Liu Muze calmed down a bit, as if remembering something important. His face became slightly solemn as he asked, "Who are you?"
"Huh?" Ye Jing'an was stunned. Why did he suddenly lose his memory? "You just forcefully kissed me, why don't you admit it?"
Liu Muze added, "Are you Ye Jingan or Ye Chenyi?"
Ye Jingan understood, rolled his eyes twice, squinted and smiled: "Amu, how come you can't even recognize me? I'm so sad."
Liu Muze's expression changed: "Are you Ye Chenyi?"
"What's with that expression on your face? Don't you want me to come back?" Ye Jing'an raised his chin.
Liu Muze took a few steps back and asked, "What about Ye Jing'an?"
"I came back, and he died naturally." Ye Jing'an said.
"Dead?" Liu Muzhe stared at him blankly.
"Well, he was originally a tool in my reincarnation process, but he and I originally had the same soul and he was a part of me." Ye Jingan said.
When Liu Muzhe heard this, his face turned pale in an instant.
"Why? Are you unhappy that I'm back?" Ye Jing'an asked.
"Ye Chenyi, I'm sorry for you. I know I owe you a lot. You can ask me to repay you in any way you want, but I may leave after I'm done. The person I like is Ye Jingan, and I want to find him." Liu Muzhe said seriously.
Ye Jingan chuckled and wanted to remain serious, but he couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Liu Muzhe asked in confusion.
"Haha! I told you that Brother Liu likes me more!" Ye Jing'an hugged Liu Muzhe and kissed him twice.
"What do you mean? Who are you?" Liu Muzhe asked.
"I'm Ye Jing'an." Ye Jing'an said with a simple smile.
"Really?" Liu Muzhe suddenly became suspicious. These two people were good at talking nonsense, and no one could be trusted.
"You don't recognize me." Ye Jingan reached under him with a playful smile, "Let me see if it recognizes me."
"Are you kidding me?!" Liu Muzhe frowned, a surge of anger rising in his heart. He grabbed Ye Jingan's shoulder and bit it hard.
"It hurts, it hurts! I was wrong!" Ye Jing'an begged for mercy.
"How can you play a joke like that? I thought you were really dead!" Liu Muzhe said in surprise.
"I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't joke like this. But I really feel that I can't compare to Ye Chenyi. I'm scared. I'm not sure what you will choose." Ye Jingan's smile disappeared and he held his hand tightly, "I'm sorry..."
"Are you stupid? I've told you so many times, why don't you believe it?" Liu Muzhe was angry and helpless.
"I was wrong, don't be angry with me." Ye Jing'an coaxed honestly. He must have scared Brother Liu again just now, but he really didn't expect that Brother Liu would react so strongly after hearing that Ye Chenyi came back and he was dead.
Ye Jing'an pursed his lips slightly. It seemed that his position in Brother Liu's heart was far more important than he thought.
"What is going on? What about Ye Chenyi? Are you two the same person?" Liu Muzhe asked.
"Brother Liu, unfortunately, the former him will never come back." Ye Jing'an sighed, "In a sense, I am indeed him. My soul is reunited with his soul. I have his memories and merits, but I also have my own independent consciousness."
Liu Muze was stunned: "What do you mean?"
"I am Ye Jing'an. Even if I possess all his memories and abilities, I still cannot understand the decision he made back then. Ye Chenyi is nothing more than a familiar yet unfamiliar memory to me. We are different. I am more like the messenger he painstakingly selected to accompany you. Brother Liu, can you understand?"
Liu Muzhe nodded woodenly.
"Brother Liu, don't blame him. He has tried his best. This is the best result he could think of. He knew that your feelings for him were not wrong, and thought that you would drink the forget-me-not wine and ascend to become an immortal, but he didn't expect you to be so stubborn." Ye Jing'an was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It was a coincidence that he got the better deal.
"Well, although you are not him, you can be regarded as the continuation of his life. I am very happy that you can come back." Liu Muze smiled faintly, "After you told me that you broke up some time ago, I thought a lot. My feelings for Ye Chenyi and you are indeed different, but you are both the people I love. Ye Chenyi is my family, and you are my love. Thank you."
"Why thank you?" Ye Jing'an rubbed his face. "It's all my fault. I made you suffer so much. I won't do it again."
"You just lied to me!" Liu Muzhe was still brooding over the terrible incident that Ye Jing'an had just caused. When Ye Jing'an said that he was dead, his heart sank.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I won't do it again." Ye Jing'an took his hand and said, "Brother Liu, let's get married!"
"Well, I'll marry you."
"No, I should marry you."
"Then let's go out and fight, and whoever wins will be the boss." Liu Muzhe suggested.
Ye Jingan smiled secretly, and suddenly pressed the man under him: "Just fight inside the house!"
...Great Harmony...
