Qingguan Nightmare Shadow

Chapter 65

Yunli: "Did something happen in the capital 'recently'?"

Luo Rong said: "Young Master Yun, if I say that the wizards in the capital are making crazy money these days, you should know what happened." Speaking of this, another woman's scream pierced into the garden, Luo Rong Shaking his head, let Yun leave to take care of him.Except for the door, he also locked all the windows, and said: "Recently, there have been a lot of strange things in this area. People who are disturbed have invited wizards to look at them. The wizards caught all female ghosts."

"What can you say?"

Luo Rong hesitated and said: "Someone said that many girls entered the palace one after another... and then these girls disappeared. The rumors are spread like this, but once the eunuchs and maids in the palace are caught 'spreading rumors', they all His head was beheaded." Due to various bad impressions of Jiahui, Yun Li casually said: "The emperor is very angry." Luo Rong immediately retorted: "No, those girls' appearances can be described as horrible, as a maid Even if it doesn't work, how could he be sent to the palace? The emperor has always hated dirt, and if scandals in the palace are spread, His Majesty will naturally be angry. What's more, the rumors are clearly fabricated out of nothing, and the good palace is passed on as a place for filth, fabricating 'scandalous events' out of thin air ..."

Yunli is not in a position to comment on Jiahui's status now; he only knows that the "before" emperor had some dirt in his heart.However, it is obvious that a transparent and pure heart cannot control a country, and Yun Li does not agree with Luo Rong's rebuttal.Yunli: "How do you know the girls are not good-looking?"

"It was told by the wizards who met those things face to face. The wizards said that Wandering Soul's face ranged from scars to bloody and indistinct." Luo Rong interrupted the topic and began to solve the accommodation problem for Yunli, saying : "There is a lot of dust in other places, and there are only two rooms that have been cleaned up. Mr. Yun, please sleep on my bed, and I will make a bed on the floor."

"I'm not used to sleeping with two people, so I'll make a bed on the floor in Su Tong's room." "Well, I'll go then. Mr. Yun, you sleep on my bed."

Yun Li took the quilt and quilt from Luo Rong, and said, "I'm an unexpected guest, I'm sorry that I drove you to sleep elsewhere." Luo Rong didn't argue with him anymore, and helped him spread the quilt, lit a lamp, In the end, I specifically asked to ignore the calls for help outside, and then I closed the door and went back to the room.

Yun Lifei wanted to be here, firstly because he wanted to sleep on Su Tong's bed, and secondly because he sensed the viewing mirror in the room.

The bronze mirror was held against the bag, and got out of the pillow. After flying for a long time, it couldn't find the right position. It hit the wall, and it might be broken if it was heavier.What happened before was just a matter of closing and opening his eyes for him, but when he took out the mirror and watched the eight years under the Nine Heavens flow like water, he truly realized the time. The elongated... sense of dread.

The picture in the viewing mirror turned so fast that it turned into a colored liquid.The bronze mirror didn't seem to know which piece to slow down, and Yunli didn't know when to make it still, so he just let the mirror hang in front of him, and he sat cross-legged on the quilt underneath without speaking. .

He has written a life book for hundreds of years, and he has always been calm in his heart when he sees the birth, old age, sickness and death of mortals through this mirror.

A pen can throw stones into a life book, causing large or small splashes in that person's life; immortals and gods only love to look at the splashes, and the people in the book don't know that a pool of water has accumulated in his life. Jingshui, from the beginning to the end, was not for him to go on a boat and swim quietly, but for a boulder thrown by Si Ming.

Yun Li stared at the mirror, feeling that he finally could no longer grasp the flow of this pool of water.

What's more, he hadn't seen which direction the water flowed for 12 years.

As if drunk, Yunli's mind became broken, and his eyes became blurred when he thought about it; he slept on the edge of the bed for a while, and at about midnight, the bronze mirror suddenly fell down, and the voice from the curtain said: "You lie on your bed Are you afraid of catching cold here?!" Yun Li rubbed his eyes and called "Master", maybe because he didn't recover well after being injured, and it would be difficult to fall asleep, so he pushed the mirror away and fell asleep again.

Mu Zhe knocked on his viewing mirror in Nuoyinge, annoyed: "Where have you been all these years? Hey, I'm your master, even if you have any adventures, you can ascend to the sky and become a god with the guidance of an expert, yes Shouldn't you also drink water and think about the source, anyway, report to me?!" The curtain covered the mirror "Dangdang", Yunli finally woke up, and said in silence for a long time: "I didn't get advice from an expert, but I was rescued by an expert."

Seeing that the apprentice was not in a good state of mind, Mu Zhe did not follow his answer and continued to ask, folded his arms and said, "I said, it was your enthusiasm that burned other people's hearts, and you left him here as a widower. But why do you look like you have been guarding the vacant house for eight years?" Yun Li's clear pupils dilated a little, and just as he was about to speak, Mu Zhe felt that he was almost alive, and said, "Where did you go? "

Yun Li rested his head on the edge of the bed, raised his eyebrows: "Nine Heavens."

If he doesn't explain things clearly tonight, Mu Zhe obviously won't let him go.Yunli cut out a few clips, and told Muzhe how he and Su Tong found the barrier, how the broken wizard sacrificed, how he was stabbed all over his body, and how he was rescued by his mother.Hearing this, Mu Zhe's astonishment couldn't be shared equally with everything for a while, and in the end he could only say: "How badly did you get hurt... are you okay now?"

"It's very serious, it's not good, maybe I'm going to die." Unaccustomed to Master's gentle care, Yun Li had no choice but to suppress the awkwardness in his heart in a frightening and irresponsible way.

Mu Zhe's face darkened for a while, and slowly showed the expression of "I really want to hit your head".Since then, the communication between the master and the apprentice has returned to the normal track, and they have been fighting each other for a while, and the behind-the-scenes cover follows the principle of equal transactions and recounts Su Tong's major events in recent years.

Mu Zhe said: "Ever since his army was forced into a dangerous situation, I led a few little immortals to lure him away. Whenever he was ordered to lead the army, he never brought a clear mirror."

Yunli: "Are you scaring people?"

Mu Zhe rolled his eyes and said, "He's not scared by you, how can he be scared by me?" Immediately she told Yun Li not to move, her eyes softened again, she observed Yun Li's brows carefully, and said while watching: "Because he asked Have I seen you, I said I don’t know... I think he thinks that if he doesn’t even know where you are as a master, it’s meaningless for him to hold this mirror. Others say that he has a celestial destiny, which is the same as his own understanding of destiny There are immortals, it’s different after all.”

"..."

Mu Zhe: "I raised you white and clean as a teacher, and you haven't been here for many days, why did you provoke dirty things? The imprint is gone, but that doesn't mean that those guys can't find you...you have Do you suspect anyone? Let me help you out with him, Master." Yun Li said that he could only think of Xu Zhen, and when Mu Zhe was pondering, he said again: "They opened my stomach and searched, as if they were looking for something."

"Looking for something? Can you swallow the gold?" Mu Zhe looked at Yunli from head to toe with scrutinizing eyes. The flicker in his eyes was not worry, but "Tell me, did you hide the gold behind your back?!" Yunli was unable to express his dismay at this conjecture, but fortunately, Mu Zhe tied up his unrestrained imagination in time, and changed his face into an expression of "I believe you are a good boy who is willing to share".

Mu Zhe said: "You have been away for so long and caused indelible trauma to my son-in-law's heart. You have to find a way to make up for it." "..." Then Yun Li realized that Mu Zhe didn't really want him to "find a way." ", she had already fermented a rancid idea in her heart.Mu Zhe said, "Come, come, get up", and then commented a few words on the layout of the room in Nuoyin Pavilion, and finally emphasized that red silk and red gauze are definitely indispensable if we want to recreate a warm and homely atmosphere.

Yunli: "..."

It just so happened that there was a knock on the door, and Yun Li put the viewing mirror back into the bag, and suppressed the sound of the curtain under the pillow.

It was not the door of the room that rang, but the gate of the garden.

The person who knocked on the door first knocked lightly, but after a long time no one answered, he knocked harder.Still no one answered the door, the visitor raised his voice and shouted: "I'm Jiang Yan. Luo Rong, did you go to bed so early?" At first the knocker didn't make a sound, and Yun Li thought that "the female ghost knocking at midnight" was also from the capital city. It's a big part of the strange matter, that's why Luo Rong didn't agree.At this time, after hearing the name from the people outside, Yun Li realized that the person coming should be the "Brother Jiang" Luo Rong said, and Luo Rong didn't seem to be in the garden right now.

Luo Rong asked Yunli to lock the doors and windows and not to worry about the noise, but he himself left the garden at this time?

Yun Li couldn't open the door to respond, so he just went out of the room and walked around the yard, and sure enough, Luo Rong was nowhere to be seen.Then Jiang Yan probably had nothing urgent, at this moment he thought that Luo Rong had already fallen asleep, so he stopped knocking on the door and turned to leave.After a short while of silence, the conversation between the two sounded outside the door again, and clearly entered the garden.

"Brother Jiang, why are you here?"

"I'm afraid it's too deserted for you to be alone. We're going to set off fireworks later, and I want you to come with me."

"I've never drank alcohol. Brother Jiang, you insisted on persuading me to have a drink just now. Now I'm dizzy and sleepy. The location of Mr. Su's garden is very good. When you set off the fireworks, I will open the window and sleep on the bed I can also follow the hustle and bustle. Don't be afraid of being laughed at, brother Jiang let me go back and relax."

The two laughed for a while, and Jiang Yan asked concerned: "Why were you walking on the street just now?"

Luo Rong: "It's cold in the room, and the charcoal is gone. I'll go get some."

"Have you got the charcoal?"

"How good is Uncle Hu, brother Jiang, don't you know? Here you go, just pretend."

The two said they were safe to each other, and they agreed to meet again on the Lunar New Year's day tomorrow, so they said goodbye for a while.

Yun Liben stood in the middle of the garden, and after listening for a while, he felt that Luo Rong's words were so loud that he intended to hear them.Feeling suspicious, Yun Li went back to the room and closed the door, and when Luo Rong entered the garden, he lit the lamp that had just been blown out, and went out with the lamp, "Did you go out just now?"

Luo Rong: "I wasn't there when Brother Jiang knocked on the door, I'm afraid I've disturbed Mr. Yun."

"No, I woke up when I heard someone talking outside."

Luo Rong believed that he had fallen asleep and woke up not long ago, so he stopped probing and said it was all right, Mr. Yun good night.Yun Li glanced at his "charcoal" package, and saw that the way the cloth was knotted was very special, it was tied around the arm, as if it was used for bandaging, not for packing things.There were no lights outside the garden, Jiang Yan looked at it in an extremely dark place, and would think that the cloth bag was held in Luo Rong's arms.

Luo Rong originally didn't want Yunli to know that he was out, but when Jiang Yan knocked on the door, he had no choice but to say that he had asked for charcoal when he went out.

Just about to go back to the house, Luo Rong paused and said, "It's probably cold in Mr. Yun's place, you go to bed first, I'll send some charcoal later." Let me tinker with the stove myself." Luo Rong said that the stove in Mr. Su's house hadn't been used for a long time, and there was a lot of dust, so he still needed a rag to wipe it.

Yunli: "Then there's no need, wrap the quilt tightly, it's the same if you can't even turn on the stove."

Now Luo Rong readily agreed, and went back to the house with the cloth bag in his arms.Naturally, Yun Li couldn't fall asleep, so he went back and lay down for a while, and he probably was almost done, so he groped to go under Luo Rong's window.After thinking about it for a while, Yun Li thought that peeping was justified now, so he took a clear look at the situation inside through the crack of the window.

Luo Rong's arm that was covered just now was full of fresh wounds.The cuts were in patches, both scratches and abrasions.

As if appropriate, the woman's distressed cry for help tore through the silence.

It was not the first time Luo Rong had suffered this kind of injury. He opened the box to look for medicine with ease, and soon came out a row of bottles and cans. After applying medicine layer by layer, the untied coarse cloth was replaced with clean white gauze.Treat the wound, blow on the lamp, lie down and close your eyes.

For the next few nights, it happened day after day.

But each time Luo Rong was injured in a different place, but he concealed it very well, and he had several gatherings with other civil and martial arts scholars in the past few days, but he was not found.Yun Li entered his room after he went out, and vaguely discerned a familiar and faint smell among the smell of medicine.Then he tried his best to convince himself that he smelled it wrong: this kind of nasty smell should not appear in the place where Su Tong usually lives.

Several times Yunli thought about telling the truth in person, but facing Luo Rong's "clear" eyes, what Yunli asked was "Is there any red silk here?" He was also surprised; immediately he realized that the "warm arrangement" dictated by Mu Zhe had been deeply rooted in his mind. In the past few days, besides paying attention to Luo Rong, he was also subconsciously thinking about the issue of "apologizing".

Fortunately, Su Tong came back before he took action, and suppressed his "ready to move" heart.

At night, the garden gate opened, Yun Li thought it was Luo Rong.Thinking of the facts, it doesn't matter what injuries Luo Rong got today before something more obvious surfaced.Yun Li was lying down with his eyes closed, but he only heard the door of the room open and close, the lamp was lit, and a person suddenly arrived.

Wasn't the sound of horseshoes just a dream?

Yun Li lifted the quilt, put on his coat, and admired the visitor as the most extravagant item, without taking his eyes off it.Su Juegui has indeed been carved by time into an appearance that can only be used for appreciation. There are two lonely stars in the dark pupils, and although the corners of the lips and the line of the jaw are perfect, they are sharp and cold, with a repulsive personality. The meaning of thousands of miles.The flickering fire light warmed the person a little, Yunli then stood up and took a step closer.

It seems that there is something to say, but it seems that there is nothing to say.

Strangely, when Yun Li took a step forward, a trace of panic flashed across Su Tong's face, and she hurriedly backed away as if afraid of something.He wrote a lot of complicated things with two dots of ink in his eyes, and Yun Li couldn't understand them. When he finally grasped the most surging emotion, Su Tong's face became calm.It takes strength to keep calm. Beneath the calm is pain pierced with ice edges. If you are not careful, you will step on the air and fall.

However, joy, anger, shock... these are not exaggerated.

Calm is the scariest thing.

Su Tong didn't want Yunli to approach, but quickly checked whether the doors and windows were closed, as if afraid that he would run away.He flicked on the lamp on the table, his hands were unsteady, and the oil almost splashed out.Then he started looking for something, but it seemed hard to find something, and he couldn't find it for a long time, so he looked back from time to time.

Yun Li was blindfolded, his brain spinning rapidly.Looking at himself, he saw that his clothes were disheveled and his hair was loose, and he found a reasonable explanation when he was dreaming: Su Tong probably regarded himself as a soul... Uh, then what is he doing?Scared by the "ghost" sprawled across his bed?So looking for magic tools, spells and other things to suppress yourself?

Impossible, impossible, this practice will damage the image of Sufu country.He, Su Tong, was surrounded by women's screams every night and didn't move. Now he was scared when he saw himself?I don't sleep well, and my appearance is not good at this time, but at any rate, I am still a beautiful and handsome immortal, and my appearance will not be reduced to a scary sequence.

Su Tong finally found a pen in the bedroom.

Ink is also there, but the paper is missing.

There were a lot of papers in the study, but he didn't want to open the door, so he tore off a corner of his sleeve.He hangs his elbows for grinding, his sleeves are folded to his arms, and on his bony arms, there are several scars from leading the soldiers on the border.Yun Li looked at the scar and lost his mind, until Su Tong studied enough ink and drew a few lines on the cloth with a pen.

Because of the slight trembling of the hands, the lines are not smooth, and the blocked places become black spots that destroy the picture.Su Tong didn't care too much, as if catching the mist that was about to dissipate, the speed of brushing became faster and faster.The lines are connected to each other and gradually join together to form; Yunli finally knows what he is doing.

How many times has Su Tong dreamed of herself?In the illusion, how hurried is he every time he walks?

Yun Li wanted to press Su Tong's hand to make him stop writing; but as soon as he moved, Su Tong got up and backed away, a little at a loss, and blew out the lamp on the table in a panic.He stored the content of the painting in his memory, and continued to draw the outline of Yunli in the darkness.

"I won't touch you... this time you wait until I finish painting before leaving."

The ice melted, and the snow melted; Su Tong's voice was a little damp and wet.

Hard things are broken, and the heart will always be stung by the falling scum.

When the last deal was settled, Yun Li felt that he had fallen into a desperate embrace.That embrace was already ready to fly away, and when Su Tong found that he hugged the dream shadow that was about to disperse at the touch of a touch, Yun Li felt that the opponent's hand was about to be embedded in his shoulder.

The flames spread, and both wanted to cast the other into their bodies.
