20demayo Chapter 178
Chapter 178
Rose is gone.
Mo Xiaofeng turned off the lights in the downstairs lobby, stepped on the wooden ladder and went upstairs to the attic.
The sound of his footsteps returned to the empty corridor, as if stepping on his own heart step by step.
The surrounding windows were closed, and the building was pitch black.
There were faint sounds of firecrackers outside the building, but this afternoon was the quietest time of the year in the busy alley.
Mo Xiaofeng felt like he was walking in the abyss of hell. Qingping Tower was like a cage. Locking him up was not to lock up his freedom, but to prevent him from going out to do evil...
Hell is so cold, Mo Xiaofeng couldn't help shivering, but he was still walking upwards, stepped up one step at a time, looked up at the top of his head, and saw a beam of light from the attic.
Mo Xiaofeng couldn't help clenching his hand holding the railing, and even his steps became much lighter.
He heard some voices, walked around the corner, in front of the small platform outside the attic, under the roller shutters was an open elegant room, only a small one, with a small square coffee table and cushions there.
As soon as Mo Xiaofeng raised his head, he saw that Gu Chen was sitting there with Tang Xiao, gossiping about family affairs, and he seemed to be waiting for him, the cup on the small table and his cup.
Mo Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect them to be here, the corners of his eyes were slightly sore for a moment, and he hurried over.
The slightly chilly air around entered his lungs, and Mo Xiaofeng realized that he had returned to reality from the nightmare.
Gu Chen stretched out his hand to take Mo Xiaofeng's hand and led him to sit down by the brazier, and handed him the teacup on the table to warm his hands. He took a sip and realized that it was the sweet fragrance that his uncle liked.
His stomach warmed up, and he could faintly smell the burning fragrance in his nostrils, and Mo Xiaofeng really felt that he was alive.He is still alive, it's great to have his uncle by his side...
In the evening, Gu Chen and the others were going back to the Tang residence. Tang Xiao, as the head of the Tang family, had to open an ancestral hall to worship on the first day of the first lunar month as usual.
If they go back early tomorrow morning, Gu Chen won't be able to sleep for a few hours.This guy was so lazy that Tang Xiao simply took him back for New Year's Eve.
Gu Chen asked Mo Xiaofeng to go with him. After all, Mo Xiaofeng also went to Tang Zhai to accompany him last year.
It's just that Mo Xiaofeng refused this year, he said he wanted to stay alone, take a rest and sleep earlier, because he drank too much wine today.
Although Gu Chen was a little unhappy, everything was Mo Xiaofeng's responsibility after all, and he ordered him to go over to eat glutinous rice balls with him earlier in the first day of the junior high school, and let this guy do it.
After overeating at noon, Gu Chen actually wanted to eat noodles at night.He didn't eat the ones made in the small kitchen, so he clamored for a bite of noodles, and asked Tang Xiao to cook them for him himself.
The majestic red door owner tied a small apron and was busy in the kitchen for a while, Mo Xiaofeng also rolled up his sleeves and washed the leaves of vegetables there.
This scene is quite a bit like New Year's Eve in the Jiangyu area. The standard outfits of the men in the family, "wear the most flowery apron and press the biggest pig", the momentum is really well-done!
After dinner, seeing the snow getting bigger and bigger, Mo Xiaofeng hurriedly urged them to leave quickly.
There were only sporadic freezing rain in the afternoon, but I didn't expect a snowfall in the evening.
Although it is not the first snow this year, it is really rare to see snow in Jiangyu, and today it is the kind that will not melt immediately when it falls on the ground.Maybe when you get up tomorrow morning, you can lay a layer of snowman!
Gu Chen and Tang Xiao left, but left "Second Master Tang" with Mo Xiaofeng.
On a day like Chinese New Year, if there is not even a living thing around, it feels really bad.
The sound of falling snow will not be as loud as in the north, but it turns into the sound of rain after it falls.
At night, Mo Xiaofeng sat alone in the elegant room in front of his attic door, burning a bonfire and drinking wine alone.
Gu Chen can't drink, but Gu Chen's private collection is top-notch.What they drank at noon today were all their [Sky Demon]'s private collection, and at this moment Mo Xiaofeng even brought out a jar of [Ice Soul] from Gu Chen's warehouse.
This is one of the four secret wines of [Tian Yao].
Bingpo, Shenchen, Wangu, Huangquanyin, these four secret wines have never been rumored, and it is more appropriate to say that they are wine or medicine.
The ice cork is brewed from hundreds of flowers, using manjusawa as a guide, medicines such as Datura and Tiannanxing, and poisonous insects as supplements. Countless secret methods are used to make it, and only one liter of finely brewed pure wine can be merged into a drop of it!
Its most precious part is its function!Falling asleep after quoting, you can see the people, things, and things you want to see like weaving a dream.
But that was not my dream, or even what I thought!
As if pulling the soul of a person back from the underworld, in the dream you can talk to that person and ask everything you want to know!
Some people say that it is drunk and everything is false, while some people regard it as the psychedelic sage used in divination, which can help people understand the past and predict the future!
This wine is indeed fragrant, but it tastes bitter.
Because of the taste and efficacy, it is nicknamed "Mengpo soup" by the industry!
Gu Chen quit drinking, and he left these things to Mo Xiaofeng, but he was not allowed to drink too much.
But today maybe the weather is just right, or the snow is falling beautifully, Mo Xiaofeng opened an altar, intending not to get drunk and not return home!
Not long after, Mo Ruhuai made a video call, calling his brother sweetly and saying all kinds of auspicious words.
Mo Xiaofeng's eyes were always curved, responding to each of them dotingly.
"Brother! Are you bringing someone back for the Lantern Festival?"
"What's the matter? Don't want to see him or don't want to see me?"
Mo Xiaofeng raised the corners of his mouth, still in the mood to joke with her.Mo Ruhuai saw that his elder brother was very happy today, so he boldly started talking poorly.
"No, how is it possible! I don't care about Lantern Festival, isn't it coming to Valentine's Day, I have to ask if there is any gift for me?"
"You should ask Dad for it, you are not my little lover!"
"I don't care! You can't have a new love and forget the old love!"
Mo Ruhuai's gossip continued, and he even asked gossip, what did Mo Xiaofeng prepare for his "little sister-in-law"?
New love, old love?Little sister-in-law?Mo Xiaofeng was instantly amused by this guy, that bastard knew he had such a name, wouldn't his lungs explode with anger!
Mo Xiaofeng looked at the wooden box on the coffee table, and raised his hand to switch the screen to a different angle.
He opened it again, except for the watch and the yellowed paper inside, the partition of the hidden compartment inside was gently opened by Mo Xiaofeng.
The place where the paper is placed inside has been replaced with a new thing, which is an ordinary key.
"The key? What the hell...wait a minute! Is this key from...there?"
Mo Ruhuai froze repeatedly from surprise to surprise.
She really didn't expect her brother to be able to identify a person like this one day!
In other words, her brother is completely relieved! ?This is so good! ! !
Mo Ruhuai wanted to scream up to the sky, she finally waited for this day!
"Do you think he will like it?" Mo Xiaofeng was a little uncertain, after all, what he gave Hong Tingyun didn't reach his heart.
"How could you not like it! Brother! This is the best gift in the world! 'Little sister-in-law' must like it very much, okay?"
On the other end, Mo Ruhuai was still beaming, while Mo Xiaofeng just poured the wine from the glass into his mouth in one gulp.
It should be enough for that guy to be angry for so many days, right?Can he wait for that call tonight?
Mo Xiaofeng didn't know, but on this day, he was more or less looking forward to the wish coming true.
Not long after hanging up the phone, Mo Xiaofeng leaned on the soft cushion and closed his eyes in a daze.
Fireworks are being set off everywhere tonight, and before twelve o'clock, gorgeous fireworks are lit up everywhere, especially those set off by the riverside as a celebration, the colors are gorgeous and very beautiful!
"boom!"
A dense explosion of fireworks exploded in the nearby sky, Mo Xiaofeng Qianmian opened her eyes, and looked at her phone, but less than two hours had passed.
Gu Chen said that "Bing Po" can help sleep, but he really didn't fall asleep just now.
Wearing a white shirt, the suit jacket was lightly draped over his shoulders.
Perhaps because of the alcohol, his body was a little hot, Mo Xiaofeng unbuttoned his neckline, and walked to the outside platform with the wine in his hand.
The falling snow hadn't piled up, and there was a gloomy chill on the wet ground.
The fireworks above his head were so beautiful, like a fleeting meteor. He looked up at the lightly falling snow all over the sky at this moment, and couldn't help thinking of those nights spent with Hong Tingyun on Longchi Mountain.
Maybe the stars are not visible at this time, but they are there, and they will never leave until the end of all lives.
Another burst of fireworks exploded above his head. Mo Xiaofeng raised his head and drank the wine in his hand. Just as he put the cup on the wall, a row of wet footprints landed on the wall. At this moment, a restless little paw was He grabbed the cup and was about to push it downstairs.
Mo Xiaofeng burst out laughing, he hugged Erye Tang from the fence and pressed it to his chest, complaining, but he took the cold and wet paws on his clothes carefully and carefully. Wipe dry.
"Aren't you so afraid of the cold? What are you doing out there? Are you afraid of me jumping off? Hehe——"
As soon as the words finished, a heavy bell rang in Mo Xiaofeng's ears, and then another.
The fireworks all over the sky seemed to never stop, and the brilliant colors filled the entire dark night!
It was twelve o'clock, Mo Xiaofeng didn't wait for Hong Tingyun's call, but he still spoke silently to the sky at this time.
"You son of a bitch, happy new year." In the new year, please give me more advice.
Xiao Hei was a little confused by the fireworks exploding above his head, struggling to escape from Mo Xiaofeng's arms and find a place to hide.
Mo Xiaofeng was afraid that he would really lose it in a while, so he quickly took off his coat and wrapped it inside, hugging it tightly in his arms and being careful not to hurt it.
The little black cat finally calmed down a bit after being packed into a ball, but its big watery eyes reflected sparkling fireworks, and it could only look at Mo Xiaofeng innocently and resentfully, as if it was accusing the other party's behavior, as if Who is bullying it like that.
Mo Xiaofeng suddenly realized why this guy was so similar to that bastard Hong Tingyun. Could it be that all the idiots in the world belonged to the same family?
Mo Xiaofeng kissed the little thing's forehead, then looked up at the fireworks in the sky, murmured that it was so beautiful in the falling snow.
Maybe tomorrow after the snow stops, it will be a sunny day...
"Meow!--"
Suddenly, Xiao Hei in his arms let out a shrill cry, and even began to struggle vigorously.The sound was so heart-piercing that even the fur on its back stood up!
Mo Xiaofeng's heart skipped a beat, and he looked behind him instantly.At some point, there was a group of guys in black standing on a platform not far away, staring at him in the falling snow!
