Chapter 712: Promise Becomes Dead
"Zhengtang, the boat is ready, Hongda and Liu Shu will take people to wait in the west of Yashui, and you will take Rou'er away directly after you find her. Throwing the long sword in his hand at the promise, Feng Yuan smiled at him, and then leaned towards the plum tree, so leisurely that it was out of place with the things beside him.
Although Guiyunzhuang was dispersed, the shadow thorn in Xu's hand was still waiting for dispatch, Hongda and Liu Shu found a boat and leaned on the edge of Yashui to wait to meet everyone. Feng Yuan calculated that he would make a final effort to make Leng Qiuzhi leave with everyone, so he had been waiting here, waiting for the promise to die, waiting for him to leave this place that had bound him for more than ten years.
"You go and find it, I'll stay. Promise drew his sword and glanced at the cold-glowing blade, then walked in the direction of the gate.
"You know, Rou'er has never listened to me, so you'd better hurry up and decide if you're going to take her with you, or if the three of us die here together. Feng Yuan smiled and raised his eyebrows at the promise, looking cynical. He was telling the truth, from childhood to adulthood, Leng Scarlet Rou only listened to the words of one person in this Guiyunzhuang except for her own father, and just now she ran out of Changhaotian in a sad state, Feng Yuan was outside the door, but she couldn't call her at all.
The promise paused, then frowned and turned back.
"The army of the imperial court is already at the foot of the mountain, if you don't look for it again, I don't mind dying here with you, after going down to the Yellow Spring, our brothers can still drink a Meng Po soup together, cross the Nai He Bridge once, maybe, reincarnate in the next life and really become brothers." After Feng Yuan finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile, with a teasing between his eyebrows and no fear.
Xu Yu sighed helplessly, he knew Feng Yuan's temper, and he also knew that he did what he said, so he made a compromise with a sigh, and went straight to the south with a single move.
The courtyard to the south used to be home to the man Rou'er loved the most, and she was disheartened at the moment and would definitely go there.
"Zhengtang!"
Feng Yuan called again, promising not to look back, but seemed to have guessed what he would say next.
"Once you find her, leave, don't come back. β
Between his eyebrows, he promised not to respond to Feng Yuan's advice, but suddenly lowered his head and smiled, and then he disappeared like a sharp arrow.
Feng Yuan looked at his departing back and exhaled lightly, then put his index finger to his lips and made a loud whistle, and with that whistle, countless black shadows sprang out around the courtyard, gathering around him in the blink of an eye.
"Delay as much time as possible, no matter what, let the eldest lady leave safely!"
"Yes!"
Although Leng Qiuzhi is unkind, this Guiyunzhuang is still a mortal enemy with a blood feud with the Great Jin, and these people who stayed behind are all shadow thorns who promised to be trained single-handedly, and they are not visible on weekdays, very low-key, but at this moment they have become the last remaining and only force in Guiyunzhuang, if Leng Qiuzhi is aware of the spring, I don't know if he will feel relieved, or will he feel ashamed......
"Rou'erβ"
Before the gate was closed, the fire had begun to catch fire outside the courtyard, but the man inside was motionless, and it was eerily quiet.
Xu Yu ran into the house and saw Leng Scarlet Rou sitting at the table with his back to the door, he reached out and grabbed Leng Scarlet Rou's arm to force her to turn around, then stroked her cheeks, looked down at her, and said softly: "Liangchen is waiting for you in Yashui, Doctor Huo has also gone, you are obedient, obediently follow me." β
Leng Scarlet's somewhat dull eyes moved slightly because of his caresse, and then her eyes lifted and looked at him blankly: "Let's go...... Where to...... The world is so big, there is no place for me to be cold and soft. Brother Xu, don't care about me anymore...... Let me...... Fend for yourself......"
Mourning is greater than heart death, now that Guiyunzhuang is gone, Daddy is gone, all the qiΔ is gone, what is the point of living in this world.
"You still have me, and Shaoqing, don't you want to go to him, if you don't want to, why do you come here and take the wood carving he gave you. Stretched out her hand to hold Leng Scarlet's hand, showed the wood carving in her hand in front of her, looked at her with a smile, and said softly: "No one can live for others for a lifetime, some things have to be let go when it's time to let go, Rou'er, the path your father chose should not be borne by you, Guiyunzhuang is gone, it doesn't mean that you have lost a qiΔ, your happiness is in your own hands, you have to rely on yourself to fight for it, I believe that Shaoqing left as a last resort, if you love him, go to him!"
Tears fell from her eyes, Leng Feirou looked down at the wood carving that Bai Shaoqing gave her, and murmured: "The world is vast, where can I find him." β
"As long as you have a heart, you will definitely find it!"
"Really...... Can you find it......"
"Of course. Ten fingers retracted, held Leng Scarlet soft hands and the wood carving in his hands, promised to smile and signaled, and pulled her out of the room slowly.
The fire spread rapidly, the beams of the house that were overwhelmed were broken behind him, and the qiΔ that once carried a short but beautiful memory gradually disappeared in the flames, leaving nothing behind.
"Bang bang. The knocker knocked, You Han walked quickly to the door and glanced through the crack in the door, then pulled the door latch open, and said loudly: "Little Hou Ye, Big Brother Bai is here." β
Bai Shaoqing stepped inside, handed the burden in his hand to You Han, and said as he walked: "Listening to General Su go back and talk about what happened, Hou Ye was very uneasy, and said that let the little Hou Ye stay here to accompany Gongzi these days, and I brought two sets of his change of clothes over." β
"Really?" You Han was overjoyed when he heard this, and said to Bai Shaoqing: "Everyone is busy, Gongzi is still sleeping, Xiaohou Ye is on the side of Gongzi Xi Hao, and Big Brother Bai is here, please." β
Bai Shaoqing answered and just took a step, when he heard the knock of the knocker behind him, You Han couldn't help laughing when he heard it: "It's strange, it's so lively today, I don't know who is coming." After he finished speaking, he went to open the door, Bai Shaoqing stopped and looked back, and when the door opened, he saw that it was a ghost wing entering the door, and he still looked like a dusty servant, so he turned around curiously and asked: "It's strange, you seem to have gone far away." β
Ghost Wing wiped the beads of sweat from his face and smiled at him, and said, "I've been out for a few days, has Brother Bai just entered the door?"
"Send a few clothes to the little marquis, and bring them to see you by the way. After Bai Shaoqing finished speaking, he let go and said, "You go first, look at your sweaty appearance, it's really hot, hurry up and take a shower to cool off." β
"Okay. They were already very familiar with each other, so they didn't need to be polite, and the ghost wings walked quickly through the corridor towards the courtyard where they lived, and Bai Shaoqing then went towards the south courtyard where Xi Hao and lingering lived.
This courtyard is now very lively, and it is flawless to be quiet, so except for a few guarded dragon guards, the rest of the people are all gathered in the south courtyard, and as soon as they enter the courtyard gate, Bai Shaoqing is stunned.
The courtyard is now densely dried with medicinal herbs, and even the air is filled with a strong smell of medicine. Xi Hao was bending down to select good products, and the rest of the people were all gathered in one place, not knowing what they were looking at.
"This flower is really strange, this should have been made, but it still maintains such a bright color, which is pleasing to the eye and can't put it down. β
"The ghost grows in the miasma where the miasma is pervasive, it blooms once every ten years, when the flowers bloom, the mosquitoes in a radius of dozens of miles where it grows are wiped out, but the miasma is getting more and more intense, if ordinary people are close at this time, they will die. Xi Hao leaned over and picked up the medicinal herbs and whispered softly. As soon as those words came out, the few people gathered around the Netherworld all stepped back, and their hearts shivered.
"Don't be afraid, as long as you don't eat the flowers after you pick them, you'll be fine. β
"Don't scare them, Bai Ze has been in his arms all the way, if it was poisonous, he would have died a long time ago. Lan Mian walked out of the house, and sent the medicine bowl in his hand to Xi Hao, Xi Hao glanced at it, nodded, and said, "It's almost, strain out the medicinal juice, and then add it to the boiling medicine." β
"Good. Lingering looked up, saw Bai Shaoqing standing behind the person, and hurriedly turned around and said to the house: "Bai Yan, Shaoqing is here." β
"Oh?" Bai Yan answered in the house, and before Bai Shaoqing walked in front of him, he had already stepped out of the door, and asked urgently: "But there is something in the barracks, and Daddy will let me go back?" Because he was in a hurry when he came, he ran directly from the plank road to the city, so he did not go to Meng Changlong to make it clear, and when Su Chong left, he specially asked him to bring a message to inform him of the matter, and when he saw Bai Shaoqing coming at this moment, he thought that his father called him back, so he was a little anxious.
"No, Hou Ye asked me to bring a few clothes to the little Hou Ye, saying, let you accompany the son these days, don't worry about the other end of the plank road. β
Bai Yan's heart warmed when he heard this, and before he could speak, he heard Xi Hao laugh beside him: "Daddy is still afraid that you will have no clothes to wear here, and he specially asked Brother Bai to come and send this trip." β
After hearing this, he couldn't help but glance at Xi Hao, shook his head and said: "You stupid and stupid, that is, I want you, if you change someone else, I'm afraid that I will already dislike you." β
"Why. Xi Hao pursed his lips dissatisfied, glared at him, and said disappreciably: "How stupid am I." β
"Listen to what Shaoqing has to say. After speaking, he glanced at Xi Hao provocatively, and then raised his chin slightly, signaling him to continue listening.
"Hou Ye asked me to see the situation of Mr. Xi Hao, and asked me to ask what the current situation of the Flawless Son is, and he wanted to get an exact and detailed reply. β
As soon as Bai Shaoqing's words were finished, Xi Hao suddenly understood.
Giving clothes is just an excuse, what Daddy wants to know is the current situation of himself and Flawless, presumably he was very anxious after hearing what happened today, but he couldn't get out, so he found a reliable person to find out the situation.
"After Brother Bai goes back, tell sΓΉ daddy, just say that we are all right, and then tell sΓΉ him, the flawless medicine needs is found, I will definitely be able to make him better, please don't worry about daddy!" Xi Hao's heart was moved, and he didn't care about lingering and teasing himself, and said to Bai Shaoqing, as soon as the words fell, he saw another person turn into the courtyard gate, and said as he walked: "It's so lively, what interesting things have happened in the past few days when I'm away?"
"You're back!" Yun Lan saw Ghost Wing enter the door, and greeted him, Ghost Wing nodded, and the two exchanged glances, but they didn't continue to talk, and others looked at them and didn't ask.
They were originally the tigers of Da Zheng, and they were ordered by Lord Zheng Zhe to follow Gongzi, and all their actions were ordered by their emperor, so others never asked them a word. In the past few days, Ghost Wing has never delved into what he is doing and what purpose he has, and now that he is back, naturally no one asks him how he has done.
"Speaking of what happened, I heard something big on my way back. Ghost Wing pulled up his cuffs and helped to dustpan the medicine in the medicine sieve, selected a few mixed ones and put them aside, and said, "Do you remember Guiyunzhuang where we went?" β
When Flawless was trapped in Guiyunzhuang, Yun Lan had taken Ghost Wing and Tiger Ben to reinforce him, and the battle of Changfeng Forest was still vivid, unforgettable, and when he said it, Yun Lan couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart and asked, "What's wrong?"
"When I came back, I passed through Mengcheng and saw tens of thousands of soldiers and horses passing through Mengcheng, and after inquiring, I realized that I was going to exterminate the army of Guiyunzhuang in the north. β
"Click-" With a sound, Bai Shaoqing's hand knocked over the sieve, he looked at the ghost wing in a daze, and then stepped forward and grabbed his shoulders and shouted, "You say it again, what are you going to exterminate?"
Ghost Wing was a little dazed by his grasp and roar, but seeing that he looked anxious, he locked his eyebrows and repeated again: "It was said that the imperial court sent the army to exterminate Guiyunzhuang, and the right general Li Qiongchi led the troops, it was already four days ago, and I think it has arrived now!"
