Fang Yuan never told Xia Xiaoyun that there was another flower under her shoulder.
Fang Yuan didn't say it before because she was afraid that she would have more excuses to pester him.
The two had a good relationship, and he didn't want to tell her, because he didn't want her to recall that terrible past.
But now, when Fang Yuan encountered inexplicable 'muscle weakness', he suddenly thought of the flower.
"What flower?"
Xia Xiaoyun was stunned and turned to look over.
Fang Yuan didn't answer and hurried into the bathroom.
Xia Xiaoyun leaned against the door with her arm and watched him quickly take off his coat, dip a towel in water and wipe it under her left shoulder.
At first, she didn't understand what Fangyuan was doing.
But when the enchanting and familiar flower slowly "bloomed" in her sight, she first looked incredible, then turned pale, her knees softened, and collapsed on the ground along the door frame.
Like Fang Yuan, Xia Xiaoyun suddenly had more flowers on the other side of her right shoulder, which also gave her great psychological pressure.
After returning to the mainland from Lop Nur, she wanted to find out why the flower appeared and what it represented.
However, due to her avoidance of the dark world, she didn't dare to go to the big hospital for examination. She just hoped that when she woke up one morning, this thing would disappear by itself.
Like a nightmare.
Maybe it was a nightmare.
On New Year's Eve, Xia Xiaoyun saw the strange woman who kept moving forward forever.
Any phenomenon, even if it is particularly scary, will weaken as long as it is experienced for a long time.
So Xia Xiaoyun was not too afraid that night and asked Chen Wanyue about it.
Chen Wanyue gave the answer.
"What did she say? Why didn't you tell me -- "
Fang Yuan picked Xia Xiaoyun up from the ground and walked towards the sofa. Just a few steps later, she suddenly jumped down from his arms and screamed, "don't touch me, don't touch me!"
Fang Yuan was stunned. She just opened her mouth to say something, but her whole body trembled like chaff, covered her face with her hands, sobbed and knelt down on the floor.
"Xiaoyun, what's the matter? Can you stop crying first?"
Fang Yuan reached out and subconsciously helped her.
As soon as her finger touched her shoulder, she raised her hand and opened it.
Fang Yuan had to stand there and looked at her puzzled. I don't know why she was so excited and afraid.
Xia Xiaoyun covered her face with her hands and cried for a long time before she stopped slowly.
Fang Yuan also sat down and looked at her cross legged.
Xia Xiaoyun finally dried the tears on her face. When she looked up, she suddenly smiled pale.
It looks sad and beautiful.
Fang Yuan's mouth moved, but he didn't say anything.
Xia Xiaoyun looked at the other shore flower under Fang Yuan's left shoulder. After looking at it for a long time, she blurted out two words: "brother -- brother?"
"What?"
Fang Yuan raised his hand and pulled his ear. He didn't hear clearly on the surface, but he sank into the ice cave. It was cold. He didn't dare to think about it any more. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and held it in his mouth. The lighter lit it several times, but it didn't light.
He was annoyed when he released the murderous devil in his heart. He suddenly raised his lighter. When he was about to hit the ground, Xia Xiaoyun stretched out her hand and took away his lighter.
With a crackling sound, the flame lit up and gathered in front of the cigarette.
After fear and crying, Xia Xiaoyun recovered her palpitating composure.
Affected by her, the mania in Fangyuan's heart gradually subsided and leaned over to light a cigarette.
The pungent smoke turned in his lungs and slowly vomited out of his mouth and nose, he felt better.
"I, I can take a sip?"
Xia Xiaoyun looked at the cigarette and wanted to smoke.
Fang Yuan hesitated before shaking his head: "your current state is not suitable for smoking."
When people smoke a little, they will know that it can calm their mood and play a role in calming their habits.
Therefore, Fang Yuan is worried that she will become addicted to smoking in her current state.
Xia Xiaoyun didn't insist. She just smiled and lowered her head: "this flower on you will appear inexplicably after you go to Lop Nur?"
"Yes."
Fang Yuan's answer is very concise.
"Then why don't you tell me that you know I have such a flower."
Xia Xiaoyun looked up and said, "it's deliberately covered up so that I can't see it."
Fang Yuan was silent for a moment before he said, "I don't want to mention that past."
"Me too. But there are some things that you can't escape no matter how you escape. Alas. "
After youyou sighed, Xia Xiaoyun looked away and said, "now I know that she suddenly appeared that night just to tell me about the flower... She had expected the problems we are facing now."
Fang Yuan didn't interrupt and listened silently.
"Have you ever heard of the legend of the Siberian people?"
Xia Xiaoyun suddenly asked this question.
The legend of the Siberian people was told by the goat.
If you didn't meet Katyusha in the dark world, Fang Yuan would only think it was a legend.
Her seemingly abrupt words made Fang Yuan's subconscious fear stronger and said bitterly: "I've heard of it. Behind the authentic Siberian, there is a birthmark of a black skull. "
"Just like the other shore flower under our shoulders."
Xia Xiaoyun slowly raised her hand and gently stroked the flower under Fang Yuan's left shoulder.
Even the most stupid person can hear what Xia Xiaoyun wants to say after she mentioned the legend of Xibo people.
Since the people of Sibo's lineal family have black skeletons on their backs, it is possible that there is another family. All lineal members have a flower on the other side.
Fangyuan and Xia Xiaoyun both have a strange other shore flower (now Fangyuan can be basically sure that this is not a vascular disease, let alone a skin disease, or a birthmark. The only thing he can't understand is why he didn't have it when he was a child, but it suddenly appeared after he went to the dark world. This is like the Black Skull birthmark on the back of the xiber people.
Then it proves that the relationship between them is likely to be -- brother and sister.
Worst of all, people from the same lineal family may be aunts and nephews, or uncles and nieces.
But no matter what kind of relationship, they can't be lovers.
But before that, they had done what lovers can do -- even if there was no substantive relationship, Xiaoxia's "efforts" last night had violated human relations.
So she was so afraid, even disgusted, full of unspeakable guilt when she saw that there was such a flower on Fang Yuan's body.
Naturally, I hate Fangyuan more. Why hide this flower?
If she had seen the flower earlier, she would never have done anything that violated human relations.
Fang Yuan finally clearly felt Xia Xiaoyun's inner pain at this time. He didn't know how ugly his face was at this time. He could only hear how ugly his voice was. He was still laughing: "Oh, ha ha, I suddenly thought of a sentence I saw on the Internet."
"May all lovers in the world be brothers and sisters."
Xia Xiaoyun also smiled, but tears flowed down again.
Back in time, new year's Eve a month ago.
When Xia Xiaoyun asked Chen Wanyue about the origin and meaning of the flower that suddenly appeared on her, she was told a very sad and beautiful story.
Many, many years ago, there was a remote small country.
The name of the country's leader is not important in this story.
Importantly, according to the folklore of small countries, the reason why the Lord of the country can become the Lord of the country is not sent by heaven to lead everyone to become rich through hard work, but from the underworld: a role similar to the Tibetan Bodhisattva.
Entrusted by Yan Jun, this man created a small country. Like the messenger sent by heaven, he can let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and love him from the bottom of his heart.
His family is called Huazu -- it's called this name because there will be such a beautiful other shore flower under the shoulders of men, women, young and old.
Just like the popular mascot, the other shore flower is the mascot of this small country. This flower is embroidered on the national flag, officials and warriors' corners.
After the founding of the small country, in order to make the country rich and strong, the head of the Huazu clan recruited sages from all over the world to help him govern the country together.
The leader of the country who is respectful and virtuous can always attract officials from the dragon -- three talented people, one man and two martial arts, come to the leader and do their best to help him.
More than ten years later, with the help of these three people, the Lord of the country took care of the country in good order and let the people live a good life.
To thank these three people, the Lord betrothed his three favorite princesses to three people respectively.
Let their descendants take the formal oath to be the first members of the three families and become the first members of the flower altar forever.
The three are very grateful to the Lord, proud to be a member of the flower family, and vowed to help the Lord from generation to generation.
That's what they said, and so did subsequent generations.
However, in a certain generation, the literary ministers most valued by the monarch of that generation were dissatisfied with always becoming other people's ministers -- just like in Chinese history, many royal families who fought each other for the throne launched the change of the court.
Wen Chen's palace change did not succeed, because after a bloody and bitter battle, the other two descendants of military generals loyal to the Lord finally smashed the plot of Wen Chen's descendants and forced him to flee the small country.
But in that court change, the descendants of the suddenly troubled Wen Chen almost slaughtered the legitimate family of the Lord of the country, leaving only a little prince who had just reached the full moon.
Before the Lord died, he handed the little prince over to two generals and begged them to raise him as their own children and help him to reproduce the glory of the flower ancestors in the past.
The two generals naturally agreed with tears and did their best.
But the problem is that after the change of the court, the Huazu and the small country were completely damaged. In addition, the great power in the Central Plains was strong and soon destroyed the country.
After the subjugation, the descendants of the Huazu came to the Central Plains.
They didn't expect to recover their homeland, and didn't even want to hunt down Wen Chen. They just wanted to be a rich man and live well.
God met their demands.
There is a poem that says it well: in the old days, the swallow in front of Wang Xie's Hall flew into the homes of ordinary people.
The descendants of the Huazu and military generals who settled in the Central Plains, with the change of dynasties, the sea changed into a fertile land, and finally completely disappeared. Many, many years later, the descendants of the Huazu were scattered for various historical reasons.
Perhaps because of water and soil and other reasons, the descendants of the Huazu are not suitable to live in the Central Plains, so people are not prosperous.
In this way, the descendants of Huazu lost contact completely.
But their descendants still maintain the most obvious characteristics of the flower family.
That is, under the shoulder, there is a flower on the other side.
This is the only proof that they are the direct descendants of the flower family.
