Fireworks, silver flowers, and sleepless nights.
The sound of fireworks and firecrackers didn't stop. Because it was close to midnight, they were getting more and more frequent in the starry sky where Fang Yan was and thousands of miles away.
Lu Chaoge didn't speak again, and neither did Fang Yan.
Lu Chaoge was focused on watching the fireworks, and Fang Yan was watching the fireworks with her on the other end of the phone.
At this time, words had become a superfluous and inappropriate way of communication.
She was really lonely during the festival alone, so he accompanied her on the phone.
For him, he could only do this much.
For her, this was enough!
Time passed by, and the fireworks were set off one after another.
They wanted to continue like this.
Until the sky fell and the earth cracked, until the seas dried up and the rocks rotted, until the mountains became flat, until the sky and the earth merged, until the smartphone ran out of battery —
Yes, just as Fang Yan thought that they were going to continue in this wonderful state for a long time, the phone placed by his ear began to heat up, and there was a "beep beep beep" sound of battery alarm.
According to Fang Yan's experience, he knew that the phone's battery was about to run out.
The battery life of today's smartphones was too short.
When their new energy technology, the Rubik's Cube, was popularized, this problem could be solved. A battery could be used for half a month, and the wife would have to worry about the problem of her husband not coming home.
"Is the phone out of battery?" Lu Chaoge, who was on the other end of the phone, also heard the beep sound. She said with a smile, "Fang Yan, thank you for watching the fireworks with me. I'm very calm now, and I don't feel very lonely — the fireworks tonight are really beautiful. "
Fang Yan nodded. After nodding, he remembered that Lu Chaoge couldn't see him at all, so he quickly said, "The fireworks tonight are very beautiful."
"Then that's it," Lu Chaoge said. "I think you must be very busy tonight."
"I'm not very busy," Fang Yan said. He didn't do much tonight. He just chased away a killer, saved a family's life, received a few messages, made a few phone calls, and was despised by Fang Yingying and Fang Haohan.
Dang dang dang —
The old bell in the east of the village was rung by the bell keeper, which meant that the old year had passed and the new year had arrived. It meant that Swallow Fort had protected Hua Xia for another year. It meant that Hua Xia had been blessed with good weather and a bumper harvest. The country was prosperous and the people were at peace.
Saying goodbye to the old year and welcoming the new year was indeed something worth ringing the bell to boast about.
"Happy New Year," Lu Chaoge said.
"Happy New Year," Fang Yan said. After thinking for a while, he added, "I'll be returning to Flower City soon."
"Yes, the students are about to start school."
"See you in Flower City."
"See you in Flower City."
Fang Yan hung up the call with Lu Chaoge. He was about to go back to his room to change the battery when the phone in his hand rang again.
Fang Yan looked at the caller ID and answered the call again. He smiled and said, "Jiang Qin, Happy New Year."
"Mr. Fang, Happy New Year," Jiang Qin's sweet voice came through the phone. "Mr. Fang, who are you talking to? I've been calling for half an hour. Your phone has been busy — I didn't know you were a talkative person before. "
Fang Yan smiled and said, "I've been calling my friends to wish me a happy New Year."
"Hmph, I wanted to be the first to wish you a happy New Year," Jiang Qin said, feeling wronged. "Am I the first person to wish you a happy New Year?"
"No," Fang Yan said honestly. The first person to wish him a happy New Year was Lu Chaoge. Their phone call went from last year to the new year.
"Ah?" Jiang Qin shouted with dissatisfaction, "Who was earlier than me? Who took my first place? "
Fang Yan smiled and said, "What's the big deal about being first and second? It's fine as long as you get it. Are your parents there? Give them the phone. I'll wish them a happy New Year — "
After Fang Yan changed the battery on his phone, Yuan Lin happened to call. Fang Yan also wished her parents a happy New Year.
Fang Yan was going to take some time to give Xia Tian a call, but he didn't expect Xia Tian to call him.
"Mr. Fang, are you busy today?" Xia Tian's voice was very lazy, as if she had just woken up and was lying in bed.
"No matter how busy a teacher is, he's not as busy as a celebrity," Fang Yan said with a smile. "Why do I feel like you're sleeping?"
"Yes. After dinner, I felt sleepy, so I lay in bed and slept. I was just woken up by the sound of firecrackers outside and thought that the new year had arrived. I turned on my phone and gave you a call for a happy New Year. "
"It's only midnight, and you've been asleep?" Fang Yan's face was full of surprise. "Tonight — how do you have time to sleep?"
According to Fang Yan's understanding of the life of a celebrity, wasn't the New Year the busiest time for them?
Gala, running, cocktail parties, all kinds of etiquette.
Even if they didn't attend the Spring Festival Gala of Hua Xia TV station, they would attend the New Year's Eve Gala of the local TV station. Even if they didn't attend TV programs, they had to attend some New Year's parties.
With Xia Tian's popularity and popularity, how could she have time to lie at home and sleep in?
"I don't want to attend any gala this year. I rejected all the activities." Xia Tian giggled, sounding very happy. "I just want to have a meal with my family, and then lie in bed and have a good sleep. I've been busy outside for a whole year, and it's really tiring. After dinner, I turned off my phone. No one can find me, and I can't see or hear any messages or phone calls. This trick really works, and now I'm in a much better mood. It seems that all the hard work of the year has been compensated in this sleep. "
"Rich people are so willful." Fang Yan said with a smile. "If I knew earlier, I would also turn off my phone and sleep like you."
"You can't turn off your phone. If you turn off your phone, I won't be able to call you. "Xia Tian said. "I haven't had time to ask, what is your relationship with that little girl?"
"Little girl? What little girl? "
"The little girl I saw." Xia Tian said with a smile. "It's rare to see a little girl like that. There's only one in our Yanjing city for hundreds of years. The little princess of the Qin family — — Tsk tsk, Mr. Fang, I found out that your way is very wild. It's not easy for us to meet, but we're standing at the entrance of the club to wait for you. "
"She's my student." Fang Yan said.
"That's all?"
"That's all." Fang Yan said.
Lanshan Valley also called to pay their New Year's greetings, and the willow tree sent a greeting message.
Fang Yan was much busier this Spring Festival than in previous years. Unknowingly, there were so many people around him.
Fang Yingying and Fang Haohan prepared firecrackers in advance and set them off on bamboo poles, which was called 'Welcome the New Year'.
After welcoming the New Year, Fang Yan personally went to the kitchen to cut two plates of braised meat and walked to the backyard with them. He knew that the old drunkard must not be asleep at this time.
The old drunkard was indeed not asleep. He was making wine in the yard.
The old drunkard liked to drink and also liked to make wine. Every year on the first day of the New Year, he would brew a jar of wine, which was called 'New Wine'. The new year would have a new beginning. Perhaps, this also represented some of the persistence and hope in his heart.
Fang Yan and the old drunkard sat opposite each other and drank. Each of them had a big bowl, and they drank a bowl of wine in one gulp.
Fang Yan ate and drank at the same time, while the old drunkard only drank and didn't eat. It was as if drinking could fill him up, and things like meat and vegetables were unnecessary to him.
"Who is it?" the old drunkard asked. The old drunkard drank all day, but it didn't mean that he knew nothing about the family.
On the contrary, because of his presence, because of him, the Fang family had always been peaceful.
Tonight, when Fang Yan went out to catch the murderer, the person who protected the Fang family was this old drunkard who didn't even want to eat with others during the New Year's Eve dinner.
"I only have some clues, but I can't be sure yet," Fang Yan said in a deep voice. "However, this time, they want to wipe out the Fang family. There are only a few opponents who can be so generous — a fox will always show its tail, and a fly will always be unable to resist eating sh * t again. Since they are doing this, they can't blame us for not stopping until one of us is dead. "
"Just kill them," the old drunkard burped and said calmly.
Fang Yan smiled and said, "In the past, you were the one who supported the family, but now, I will. Don't worry, we won't fall. Just drink your wine and leave everything else to me. "
"I will drink the wine that I should drink, and I will kill the people that I should kill," the old drunkard said with a clear voice, like a knife burning in a bowl. "I'm only a cripple, not a dead person. Even a stray dog or cat dares to bully us, do they think the Fang family is nobody? "
"You're not a cripple, it's just that your meridians — —"
The old drunkard cut off Fang Yan and said, "There was a climber who was good at climbing the mountain, but when he was about to reach the top, he was kicked down. No matter how hard that person tried, they would only be able to climb to the middle of the mountain — — can you still say that person is good at climbing? "
Fang Yan's eyes were filled with fighting spirit, saying, "So, I made a decision"
The old drunkard looked at Fang Yan with a burning gaze, waiting for him to continue.
"I want to challenge Dragon God Hua Xia" Fang Yan said very seriously. "He broke two of your meridians, I cut off two of his dragon claws. That's fair "
Clang — — -
The old drunkard's finger tapped the side of the bowl, letting out a clear metallic sound.
"I've been waiting for these words for too many years" the old drunkard said with an excited voice. "A man's ambition is to leave the village, and not return until he becomes famous. There's no need for the red earth to bury one's bones, there are mountains of gold at the end of the world. Martial artists of our generation should have such lofty ambitions. "
"I want to avenge you. Our Fang family isn't that easy to bully "
"When do you want to challenge the Dragon God?"
"When my Heart of Taiji enters the Water Overflow realm, I will definitely fight against the Dragon God inside the red wall" Fang Yan said. "I believe that day will come very soon"
"— — -"
