Chapter 724: Into the Valley
It was the first time that Mu Ran felt that Bai Qing in front of him was so unfathomable, and although Su Yu beside him had been silent, what he thought in his heart was exactly the same as Mu Ran, his peach blossom eyes squinted slightly, and he looked at Bai Qing who was chattering in front of him quietly, and the people in front of him didn't seem to notice the strangeness in Su Yu's eyes and Mu Ran's eyes, they were still excited, and the depths of his eyes were shining as dazzling as stars.
"The Valley of the Wicked is a bitter cold place, the white girl has golden branches and jade leaves, why suffer?" Mu Ran finally said coldly, although she didn't make it clear, but the meaning in those words was obviously obvious, even if they had the same purpose, they could be divided into whips, and they would not leave together.
It's just that Mu Ran said this, Bai Qing was not angry, she still flashed her eyes excitedly, and she didn't know if she understood the meaning of Mu Ran's words, and she still said with a smile, "Miss Chu, you also look up to me Bai Qing too much, after all, Tubo is not a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, not to mention, I said that I am Princess Bai Qing, do you believe it?" When she said this, there was a faint hint of cunning in her eyes, although it was fleeting, she was still clearly seen by Mu Ran and Su Yu.
The two looked at each other, even if they didn't say anything to each other at this time, but looking at this, as if they understood everything, Mu Ran smiled coldly, it seems that this Baiqing girl is not simple, but despite this, they can't get through.
"Bai Qing heard that there was once a brave and warlike general in the Valley of the Wicked, named Chu He. I don't know if Miss Mu Ran has heard of it?" Naturally, he saw the cold alienation in Mu Ran's eyes, but Bai Qing was still not in a hurry, but instead walked a few steps closer. She said so meaningfully, and even slowly spread out her palm as she spoke, and in her palm, at this moment, there was a transparent white jade, shining in the sun, but Mu Ran trembled.
With such a precious jade, Mu Ran naturally knows it again. Isn't it her brother's personal belongings, Mu Ran went to the Valley of the Wicked, but she just heard that Chu He had appeared in the Valley of the Wicked. Who knew that now Bai Qing actually took this thing out like this, Mu Ran, who was shocked by surprise, looked at Bai Qing who was still smiling in front of her in disbelief, and the cold light in the corners of her eyes was tight, "Bai Qing." You ......"
Call it by its first name. Almost full of murderous aura, Bai Qing, who was still smiling lightly before, couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart at this time, restrained the smile on the corner of his mouth, and put away the white jade, Bai Qing's expression was still unfathomable, he looked at Mu Ran so calmly, was silent for a moment, and then continued to say slowly. "So now, you two...... Can you come along?"
Mu Ran then understood. In fact, this Bai Qing had already come prepared, and now she said that it was a threat or a conspiracy, but she didn't seem to have a choice, "What do you want to do?"
"It's just to invite the two of you to go with Bai Qing. Seeing that the plan had succeeded, Bai Qing continued to grin, the expression was very innocent, but the smile was clearly hidden, Mu Ran only looked at her coldly, at that moment, the depths of her eyes were already surging, but suddenly there was a knife hidden in her smile, "Bai girl is with you, naturally it is better." ”
She agreed very happily, and Su Yu on the side didn't say anything more, just shook the folding fan in her hand, and looked at Bai Qing's eyes, which were even more unpredictable.
In any case, the threesome seems to have been settled like this, Bai Qing seems to be very happy, and he has been pouting in the Yuexian Tower, Mu Ran didn't want to pay much attention to her, but just began to worry about everything that was ready to leave Jingzhou, this day passed quickly, and it was the next day in a blink of an eye.
Qi Xiu had long known the news of Su Yu and Mu Ran's departure, but Su Yu didn't seem to be willing to make a big fuss, and in the depths of the palace, Qi Xiu looked at the young man in front of him who was stretched like jade, "Thank you." Although his face was indifferent and unfazed, but deep down he was still turbulent, he knew in his heart that if it weren't for Su Yu's great help for so many years, he would naturally not have sat in such a high position just over the years, thinking of this, Qi Xiu was actually very grateful to Su Yu in his heart, but the majesty of his Ninety-Five Dignity, it was rare to be able to remove all the nobility at this time and have a long talk with Su Yu.
Su Yu didn't have any expression, but he smiled faintly, he had his own purpose when he helped Qi Xiu at the beginning, so at this moment, the mood was still very calm, he and Qi Xiu have always been commensurate with you and me, even at this moment, there is no exception, and Qi Xiu frowned, just because he suddenly had a strong premonition at this moment, it seemed that this time Su Yu left, he would never come back.
He clearly knew that a man like Su Yu would definitely not be able to stay in Jingzhou forever, or rather, even if it was a dignified Jingzhou in Kyoto, he would not be able to keep Su Yu, and he would leave sooner or later, just because Su Yu's value was never more than that, but Qi Xiu really didn't expect that this day would be so fast.
He handed over the token to Su Yu, this world is so big, now since he is the Ninety-Five, this world is so big, with his protection, Su Yu will naturally be able to enter and exit freely, and it will also save a lot of trouble, although in fact, Qixiu himself knows it very well in his heart, for Su Yu, this is just a superfluous move.
Sure enough, Su Yu just rejected him indifferently, "Su Yu doesn't need this, the emperor, now that the dynasty has been decided, the people's hearts are unstable, Su Yu is not here, I am afraid that Su Yu will no longer be able to help the emperor, and ask the emperor for forgiveness!"
"It's all brothers, why be polite!" Qi Xiu was very moved when he saw Su Yu say this, and sighed deeply, patted him on the shoulder, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and since Su Yu didn't accept his token, Yu Qi Xiu's heart also knew about Su Yu's decision, he didn't want to say anything, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more bitter, and he picked up a glass of thin wine from his side, "Okay, Su Yu, I have always treated you as my own brother, and now that I have traveled far away, let me give you a glass for my brother!" After saying that, Qi Xiu had already picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
Su Yu also smiled and drank, he never regretted knowing Qi Xiu, let alone regretting that he had raised him step by step to the throne of the King of God, after all, who is the Ming Jun and who is the Dusk Jun, even if it is not himself, the ministers of the court, and even the people of the world, are very clear. Handing over this world to Qi Xiu was the most correct thing he had done, and it was also the greatest relief after Mu Ran left.
The day of leaving Jingzhou, the drizzle, farewell to the previous day's sunny day, the streets and alleys are still left with the snow of the past, the air is damp and cold, the city gate, people come and go, so lively, an inconspicuous carriage is parked in the corner at this time, Mu Ran sits quietly on the carriage, occasionally lifts the curtain, you can see not far from the city gate, Yuexian Tower is as lively as in the past, but only she knows in her heart that there, there will never be those two quiet figures.
"Miss Mu Ran, you also said that the Valley of the Wicked is not a good place, after all, Chu He has only appeared a few times, why should you be obsessed, after all, the people there are not very easy to deal with!" Bai Qing said this, he seemed to be a little worried, and couldn't help sighing, Mu Ran was shocked to find the clue, maybe Bai Qing felt that it would be dangerous for him to go there alone, so he had to work with himself and Su Yu, Bai Qing was actually worried about his own safety!
Seeing Bai Qing's thoughts, Mu Ran was indifferent, but just said quietly, "But there are also rumors in the market that once you enter this valley, you will never suffer, is Miss Bai Qing still afraid?" The faint sarcasm in her words was obvious, and Bai Qing didn't know if she had listened to the meaning of Mu Ran's words, she just smiled and took the words, "But I also said that after walking the road of three lives, I will never look back, and I don't know if I really don't look back, or I can't go back." "That bitter cold place, Bai Qing has never heard of it, it seems that the people who went in never came out, and when she thought of this, she also had a faint sorrow.
"Heh, if the white girl is afraid, why risk going there?" Mu Ran looked at Bai Qing lightly, looking at the girl with a pale face but still pretending to be calm at this time.
"Naturally, there is a reason to go, isn't Miss Mu Ran too?" she raised her eyebrows and looked at Mu Ran, in fact, the two of them each have their own goals and have their own hardships, since this is the case, it is better to form an alliance, but she doesn't understand, Chu Muran, who has always rejected people thousands of miles away, still doesn't know the pros and cons at this time, and doesn't understand that in fact, at this time, it will be much better for them to form an alliance than to be in danger alone. It's just that when Bai Qing thought so, she seemed to have forgotten that Mu Ran had Su Yu after all, but herself, that was really fighting alone.
It was when the two of them were talking that Su Yu finally got into the carriage, and before he sat down, he already faintly felt the strangeness of the air around him, and she frowned, she gently put her hand on the back of Mu Ran's hand, "Let's go." ”
"Hey, do you have to be like this, you and me, I'm still here!" It's just that Su Yu is like this, but Bai Qing is not convinced, she feels that if she really watches these two people show affection all the way, she has not yet reached the Valley of the Wicked, and she will naturally become blind, thinking of this, she is a little angry.
However, Su Yu didn't seem to care what she thought, looking at Bai Qing's annoyed appearance, Su Yu instead showed a faint smile, "It seems that the white girl insists on joining us?!"
Isn't she afraid that something will happen?!Hearing Su Yu say this, Bai Qing blushed even more, stuck out her tongue, and calmed down unexpectedly, but she didn't know what she was thinking about. (To be continued......)
