Chapter 55: The Love Story of the Rivers and Lakes: Maggots in the Snow and Pretty People in the Village
Character Background & Preliminary Summary: Xue Zhongmaggot and Village Qiao appeared in Chapter 44. They were Jianghu people invited to the platform by Cishu Xianfang. Later, because they were worried about offending the Kyushu government, they dove Rong Qingshu.

……

……

The dark clouds in the night left faint traces of horror, like Rahu, who devours everything, passing through Longyin City, but the people who were happy all night didn't know anything about it.

The lights in the world meander until the city wall, like a blocked molten steel flow, flowing along the straight edge of the city.

bustling.

Such a city seems like heaven and earth, but there is no place for maggots in the snow and the beauty of the village.

Kyoto is big, and living in it is not easy.

Maggots in the Snow and Village Qiao came from the frontier of the New Qin Dynasty. They had always heard that the most prosperous place in the world was Longyin City. They walked along the official roads and finally arrived at Longyin City during the Shangyuan Festival.

In the east wind night, flowers and trees are bloomed, and the stars are like rain.

Xue Zhongmaggot and Village Qiao Qiao finally saw the beauty of Longyin City, and they also got into trouble.

After traveling for a period of time, they came to the top of Baojin Tower to watch the night view one night, but they were caught by the Fenglei Guard of Kyushu Prefecture.

It's a royal building, ordinary people know that they can't get close to it, but you still climb to the top of the building, what is your intention?
Fortunately, Feng Leiwei did not embarrass the husband and wife after his investigation, and was released after a few days of detention.

Today was the last night of the husband and wife in Longyin City, and Qiao Qiao wanted to see Longyin City from a high place, so she chose a place like Wangjin Tower.

Maggots in the snow are good at using knives. He earned a small nickname "Fighting Knife in the Snow", but after losing a contest, his opponent joked that he was "a dry road in the snow", and the creature in that road It is maggots.

Slowly, the humiliating nickname Xuezhongmaggot replaced his original real nickname, Xuezhongmaggot accepted it optimistically, and said with a smile that he was just a tired person who people didn't want to provoke.

Probably because this nickname is really disgusting, since then, his wandering in the rivers and lakes has become much smoother.

When many people heard his nickname, they frowned and stayed away from him, as if he was really a maggot.

As for Village Qiao, she was once the most beautiful and virtuous woman in the village where she was born.

On a day when the grass was growing and the warbler was flying, the maggot in the snow, who was still a dude at that time, hid in the thatch by the river.

Listening to the birds chirping and preparing to hunt birds, I saw the village pretty picking wild vegetables for the first time.

The young man is ignorant, but he also knows what the impulse sprouting in his heart is, but he is shy to face her directly.

Since then, he no longer has nothing to do, and often wanders by the river, only hoping to see the village pretty again.

When I didn't see her, I looked forward to it.

When he saw her, he was flustered and didn't dare to meet her eyes, and passed her by pretending to be calm.

In his dream, it was her beautiful appearance. He missed her day and night, tossing and turning, seeing that the wild vegetables by the river were getting old, and the thatch growing taller than him. He had never spoken to her.

Finally one day at the family sacrificial ceremony, Xue Zhongmaggot, as the heir, presided over the ceremony in a solemn and elegant dress, and rang the bells and drums that resounded across the sky, the fields, and the river islands.

When he was proudly patrolling, he suddenly discovered that the beautiful girl was actually a slave plundered by the family.

She was standing in the queue waiting for the honorable him to step on their backs to show that they were just his beasts.

Never forgetting, is this just a memory?

Later, Xue Zhongmaggot desperately wanted to be with Village Qiao, but she was humble and came from a hostile village with a feud, so his love with her was absolutely not allowed.

In the end, Xue Zhongmaggot was expelled from the family by his father, and his mother secretly sent the village beauty out, letting Xue Zhongmaggot take the village beauty with him, and wandered around the world ever since.

The two of them depended on each other, but Qiao Qiao's health in the village was getting worse and worse. She had little self-cultivation in the days when she lived in no fixed place, and she became sick from overwork.

Maggot in the snow knew that his wife had a desire to visit Longyin City, and also heard that the water and soil near Longyin City contained spiritual energy, which was good for the body, so he tried every means to come here.

What they didn't expect was that the daily expenses of Longyin City were not something they could afford at all, and Maggot in Snow even had to go to the League of Legends to accept the task for the platform of Cishu Xianfang.

Finally... know that the people behind Cishu Xianfang have offended the son of Prince Langya, the future ruler of Kyushu Prefecture.

So I didn't dare to go, and I didn't get any money.

"Sincerely know that everyone has this hatred, poor and lowly couples are always sad."

Maggot in the snow looked at the bustling Longyin City that had nothing to do with him, looked at the fascinated and joyful expression on his wife's face, but knew that his wife's time was actually numbered.

For a couple who share hardships and hardships, once they say goodbye, what a sad thing... This poem probably means this.

Maggot in Snow couldn't help thinking that if he hadn't left the family, with the strength of the family, he would definitely be able to take good care of the village.

The lights in the world in front of me gradually went out, Xue Zhongmaggot and Cun Liqiao sat on the top of Wangjin Tower, leaning against each other, facing the prosperity and the night together.

My wife talked a lot tonight. The more she talked, the happier she became, and the more excited she became. From the day she met him, she recalled every bit of their journey.

"Why don't you talk about what happened when you were a child?" Xue Zhongmaggot felt as if a knife was piercing his heart, he knew that his wife probably couldn't hold on anymore.

Probably just want to let him remember the days we spent together in the last time, let him know that he treats her very well, no need to feel guilty, no need to be sorry, she is very happy and satisfied in this life.

"I seem to only remember... the days since you hid by the river and peeped at me..." Village Qiao smiled slightly. In the years when she didn't have a good life and lived a hard life, she was no longer what she was when we first met beauty.

She is not very old, but her hair is already mottled with snow, and the tenderness at the corners of her eyes is wrinkled, but when she smiles, she feels like a maggot in the snow as before.

"So, so am I...haha..." Xue Zhongmaggot laughed, gently embracing his wife's skinny shoulders.

He was suppressing the worry that it was difficult to breathe, his wife was even thinner, her palms were all skinny, and she was supported by some remaining zhenqi. When she absorbs... the maggots in the snow can't imagine.

He raised his head, his eyes became indifferent... If he is not accompanied by his wife, what is the point of his life?
So the smile on the corner of his mouth was as gentle and quiet as his wife's.

"Guanguan Juzhou is in the river continent. A fair lady is a gentleman."

Hearing the sound of people behind them, Xue Zhongmaggot and Cun Li Qiao turned their heads in astonishment, they couldn't help becoming vigilant, and saw three people standing behind them.

Two women in black, one on the left and the other on the right, looked like weapons blending into the darkness, they would descend on the target's head at any time, while the man who recited the poem was dressed in ordinary clothes, walking on the roof of the building, he seemed to be strolling in a garden, his breath was restrained, and he was even more invisible. Out of depth.

In short, the strength of the other party seems to far exceed that of the husband and wife.

Although the husband and wife were distracted and didn't have the energy to pay special attention to the surroundings at all, they still felt a little trembling at being able to approach so quietly.

"Wild waterweed, flow from left to right. My fair lady, I want it. If I can't ask for it, I think about it. You are leisurely, tossing and turning. You can pick it from left to right. My fair lady, you can pick it from left to right. You can pick it from left to right. .My fair lady, let the bells and drums sing."

Qin Shou'an finished reading the poem with a little emotion, cupped his hands and said apologetically to the couple: "This is a separate courtyard from home, and I didn't intend to eavesdrop on the two of you remembering the past... I dedicate this poem to express my apology."

It turns out that "Guan Ju", which has been passed down through the ages, is about the love between the people in the rivers and lakes and the love in the village.
-
Maggots in the snow... It's not Xia Hua's nonsense, there really was a hero in the ancient world with this name, and so did Qiao Qiao in the village.

Various requests.
