Chapter Seventy-Four: Zhou Yun's Past
"Why are you looking for me to come out?" asked Zhou Yun.
"Pack up and get ready to go to the Yuanlong Empire. Sikong Yu said.
"Why go to the Yuanlong Empire. Zhou Yun asked.
"Do you want to save Song Yu, if you want, go to the Yuanlong Empire. Sikong Yu said.
"Do you want to trick us all into going to the Yuanlong Empire, and then kill us in the Yuanlong Empire?" Zhou Yun said, her eyes clearly filled with deep hostility.
Sikong Yu's face was full of black lines, but she had to admit that her worry was still a little reasonable. Sikong Yu said: "No, whether you believe it or not, if you want to do it, Song Yu can only go to the Yuanlong Empire." ”
"Is there no other way?" Zhou Yun said.
"Maybe, but I can't think of it. Sikong Yu said.
Zhou Yun didn't speak, Sikong Yu didn't bother her, his eyes looked up at the sky, it was dark now, but today's night was different from the past, today's night was still dark, but the moon in the sky was round, like the face of a lover. Around the moon, there are still stars in the sky, and there are many more stars today than in the past, and it seems that many of them may fall from the sky at any time.
At this moment, Sikong Yu's heart was full of joy, because he was going to the Yuanlong Empire tomorrow, and he would be able to see Sima Miaoyin when he went to the Yuanlong Empire.
Thinking of Sima Miaoyin, Sikong Yu's heart couldn't help but be filled with a sweet emotion.
"Okay, I'll clean up. Tomorrow to the Yuanlong Empire. Zhou Yun said.
Sikong Yu's thoughts were interrupted by Zhou Yun's words, he looked at Zhou Yun, and he could see that there was fear and loneliness in her eyes. He could understand her fears, but he couldn't understand her loneliness.
At this time, Zhou Yun said again: "Can going to the Yuanlong Empire really cure Song Yu?"
Sikong Yu said: "I don't know this either. To treat Song Yu, you need the Nine Turns of the I Ching Pill, even if you search the entire Tianwu Continent, there are not many people who can practice this kind of pill. ”
When Zhou Yun heard Sikong Yu's words, the loneliness in her eyes became even stronger. In the darkness of the night, she was as helpless as a frightened rabbit. Sikong Yu couldn't help but feel a little pity when he saw it.
Sikong Yu asked, "Who are you from Song Yu?"
Zhou Yun lowered her head and was silent, but Sikong Yu saw that there was another emotion in her eyes, a sad emotion.
Sikong Yu didn't ask anymore, lest the girl cry.
But there are more questions in Sikong Yu's heart, why can such a vulnerable person become the city lord of Dudan Province? Where is this Zhou Yun sacred, her strength is not weak, but what is the relationship between her and that Song Yu.
Sikong Yu thought about these questions and couldn't figure it out. When he was just about to leave, Zhou Yun opened his mouth and said, "I am one of Song Yu's lovers. ”
Sikong Yu said: "Does he have many lovers?"
Zhou Yun bit her lip and nodded. The loneliness and sadness in his eyes are exposed. Even the dreary darkness of the night could not completely hide the sadness in her eyes.
Sikong Yu originally wanted to ask, but he really didn't understand why a girl like Zhou Yun with a high level of realm and a good appearance would be desperate for a guy like Song Yu. But when the words came to his lips, he still didn't ask. Because he didn't feel the need to ask.
The feelings between people and the connection between people cannot be explained clearly. Maybe you've known someone all your life, but you've never said a few words to him in your life. Maybe you've only known someone for a day, but you have a feeling of seeing each other late, and you want to tell him all your secrets, and you want to know all his secrets.
Zhou Yun returned to her room and began to pack her clothes, she folded her clothes into neat squares, and then put them in the Qiankun bag. As she was packing her clothes, she saw a skirt, a skirt with holes.
Then her thoughts involuntarily returned to that day, the day she met Song Yu for the first time-
The sky was as black as splashing ink, and in the black clouds blue lightning swam in the sky like blue snakes. Raindrops the size of soybeans fell from the sky quickly and crackling.
There were only two people in the empty street, one on his knees, letting the rain hit her hair, hit her face, and wet her clothes. There was also a person lying on the ground, her body was already cold, and it was impossible to get up from the ground again.
The girl had an alcoholic and gambling father, who said it was the father, but the girl had never met the man a few times. He was always drunk every time he saw him, and his mouth emitted an unbearable foul smell.
The man knocked desperately on the door and said, "Open the door, open the door, open the door!"
The woman hurriedly whispered: "Zhou Yun went back to your own room, I didn't tell you not to come out, did you hear?"
Zhou Yun nodded.
After Zhou Yun returned to her room and closed the door, the woman went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, the man was like a puddle of dirt on the woman, with a foul smell of sweat and a mouth full of alcohol. Most women can't stand the smell, and when they meet this kind of man, they will hide as far as they can like the plague.
But the woman seemed to get used to it, as if it was something she had to face every day, as normal as eating and drinking.
The woman helped the man to a chair next to the table, and the man vomited as soon as he sat down. The woman couldn't help but want to vomit when she saw the vomit, but she held back.
She disposed of the vomit, then fetched another basin of water and said, "You can wash your face first." ”
The man washed his face with a towel, and the cold water made his chaotic thoughts and emotions a little.
The man said, "Do you have any money?"
The woman said, "No." ”
The man smiled and said, "I know, if you have money, you can give me some, you see I haven't even eaten a meal today." ”
The woman said, "I don't have any money here, and I still have to raise this daughter." You fathers know how to fool around outside. ”
The man continued to smile and said, "Just give me some money, don't worry, I will pay you back as soon as I earn the money." ”
The woman said, "I don't have any money, you've never made any money." ”
The man stood up and said, "You really don't have any money!"
The man didn't wait for the woman to speak this time, and once said, "What about Zhou Yun?"
The man said: "Our Zhou Yun has grown up, and he can sell it!"
The man knocked on Zhou Yun's door and said, "Open the door! It's Dad!"
The woman stood up and said, "Do you still have a little humanity, why don't you even let go of your own daughter!"
The man turned his head and said, "My daughter, how do you know that it's my daughter, you are also a meat businessman, how many men have you slept with, how can you be sure that this girl is mine, maybe you gave birth to that wild man." ”
As he spoke, he slapped the woman in the face, and the woman was hit on the ground by his palm, and her head hit the edge of the chair, red blood flowing. Tears had already appeared in the woman's eyes, but the woman did not cry.
The woman stood up, turned around and took out a few silver coins from the pocket of one of her clothes and said, "Don't you just want money, you can take it and go." ”
The man took the silver coins and threw them into the air, and then, with a "ping-pong-pao-pao-pao" sound.
The man said, "Didn't you say you don't have any money, what is it?"
As he spoke, he slapped the woman in the face again.
Although Zhou Yun in the room didn't see anything, he knew what was going on when he heard the voice. Tears welled up in her eyes.
"Stinky bitch, women are cheap, I have to be hard. The man said viciously.
"Let's go. The woman said in a voice that bordered on pleading.
The man looked at her, and a trace of blood was already oozing from the corner of her mouth. Two buttons also fell off her clothes, just in time to see her looming snow-white breasts.
The man said, "I don't want to go now." ”
As he spoke, he grabbed her clothes and tore them apart with both hands. said: "You want to make Lao Tzu feel refreshed." ”
The woman resisted desperately, her tears could not be held back any longer, and the tears slowly slid down her cheeks.
The man slapped the woman again and scolded: "You were originally doing this line of work and pretending to be reserved!"
At this time, Zhou Yun walked out, shouting with tears in her eyes, with all her strength: "Don't bully my mother!"
The man looked at Zhou Yun and smiled: "I didn't bully your mother, I am your father, how could I bully your mother." ”
The man watched Zhou Yun's body slowly stand up and walked towards Zhou Yun. He said, "Come here, come to Daddy." ”
Zhou Yun looked at this man, her eyes showed fear, and she kept retreating until she leaned against the wall, and there was no way to retreat.
The man said, "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, I'll make you comfortable." ”
When the man was about to approach Zhou Yun, the woman suddenly picked up a kitchen knife and slashed at the man's back.
The man screamed, his eyes showing an incredible look, he couldn't imagine that a woman who had always been obedient to him would have the courage to kill him.
With the last of his strength, the man said, "If you kill me, you won't survive." ”
The woman looked at the bloodstained kitchen knife and said to Zhou Yun, "You have to live well." ”
After saying this, the woman picked up a knife and stabbed herself in the neck.
The man fell to the ground, and the woman fell to the ground.
Zhou Yun lost her father and mother all at once.
Zhou Yun faced this major change, there was no sadness, no pain, no emotion in her eyes, as if all the perceptions in her body died with the death of her parents.
She carried her mother out into the street, and she herself knelt beside her mother, who she wanted to bury. But she didn't have any money, so she came up with a solution, which was to sell herself to bury her mother.
But as soon as she knelt down, the sky began to darken with clouds, which had been noon, but at this moment it seemed as if it was night.
Thunder began to thunder in the sky, lightning flew through the clouds, and then in an instant, the sky was like a huge bag that had broken because it was filled with too much water to bear, and in an instant the raindrops fell desperately. "Crackling" on this empty street.
It's like playing a sad symphony for this gray world.
Suddenly, a carriage stopped in the rain, there was a man and a woman in the carriage, they were wearing luxurious clothes, and Zhou Yun at that time could not have imagined that he would one day wear such clothes.
The man plucked a beaded flower from the woman's hair and put it on Zhou Yun's mother's head, and asked, "Is it beautiful?"
Zhou Yun nodded.
Then the man got into the carriage and left.
Soon after the man left, the weather cleared, and the sun shone through the clouds and on Zhou Yun's mother's face. In which one of them, this woman lying on the ground is like the most beautiful and beautiful woman in the world.
Then five men came and carried her mother away.
One of them said, "Where do you live now?"
Zhou Yun said: "I don't have a place to live. ”
The man said, "Are you willing to come to the Hundred Flowers Sect." ”
Zhou Yun nodded.
Zhou Yun withdrew from her thoughts, and thinking of these was like a dream.
Zhou Yun packed up his things and went to see Song Yu who was still lying on the hospital bed, Song Yu was almost recovered now, but he still couldn't drive the true qi in his body, as long as he drove it, he felt a piercing pain, all over his body.
Zhou Yun said, "How is today?"
Song Yu said: "Lao Tzu is very good, it will be better to slaughter that kid from Sikong Yu!"
Zhou Yun ignored his excited tone and said, "You go and clean up, tomorrow we will go to the Yuanlong Empire." ”
A hint of alertness flashed in Song Yu's eyes and he said, "What are you doing in the Yuanlong Empire?"
Zhou Yun said: "Give you treatment." ”
Song Yu said: "Give me treatment, do you think you can still control it when you go to the Yuanlong Empire?"
Zhou Yun said: "Then what can I do, do you just let you be like this, and then hold your two girls all day long." ”
Song Yu quieted down, and the expression on his face began to become serious. This kind of serious expression is rarely shown on Song Yu's face, and Song Yu has always been a cynical image in Zhou Yun's impression. It seems that as long as there is a young and beautiful girl for him to hold every day, he can always be happy.
This serious expression appeared on his face only once, when the Ibo Empire attacked the province of Dudan. He did not hesitate to defect to the Ibo Empire.
Zhou Yun asked why he turned to the Yibo Empire, didn't he feel a little pain in his heart when he defected?
Song Yu smiled: "I was originally from the Yibo Empire. ”
Zhou Yun said, "Didn't you pick it up in front of the sect master?"
Song Yu said: "That's designed. ”
Zhou Yun could hear it, and his tone didn't look like he was lying. As he said that, he laughed again, laughing. As if announcing his victory to the whole world with laughter. But Zhou Yun saw that there was no smile in his eyes, and there was even a slight look of pain.
Song Yu asked, "Are you going to follow me?"
Zhou Yun said: "What if I don't follow?"
Song Yu was silent for a while and said, "Then I'm afraid you won't feel good." ”
Zhou Yun said: "You don't actually have to ask, no matter who you are, I will follow you." ”
Song Yu said, "Okay, I'll go." ”
Zhou Yun stood up, kissed him on the lips, and said, "Rest early." ”
After saying that, he walked out.
The next day.
The sun in the sky slowly rises from the horizon, sprinkling a warm golden glow on the earth. The sun shone on the earth, and also on the faces of Sikong Yu and his group. Mornings are always fresh and lovely, and Sikong Yu thinks of his father again when the sun shines on the earth. His father, Sikong Yan, said: "Morning represents hope and warmth." ”
Situ Yun asked, "Are you all ready?"
Sikong Yu said, "It's ready." ”
The others nodded.
Situ Yun took out the chain of spatial transfer and recited the incantation, and his body swayed with the incantation. Then a blue ball of light appeared from the spatial transfer chain, and the blue ball of light enveloped Sikong Yu and them all in it. Then it disappeared in an instant.
At this moment, the province of Dutan is calm and sunny, as if nothing had happened just now.
Yuanlong Empire, the imperial city.
A blue light flashed, and Sikong Yu and they appeared in front of a magnificent building. There were two men guarding the front of the building, both of them wearing armor, and each of them was as straight as a gun.
Zhou Yun was surprised: "Have we arrived at the Yuanlong Empire?"
Situ Yun said, "Yes. ”
Song Yu asked Zhou Yun and said, "How do you know that we have arrived at the Yuanlong Empire?"
Zhou Yun said: "Look at their armor. ”
Song Yu looked at the armor of the two guards, which was indeed the armor of the soldiers of the Yuanlong Empire.
Situ Yun said, "You follow me." ”
Situ Yun walked up to the soldier, took out a token and said, "I want to see His Majesty the King." ”
The soldier said: "Go in, the king said, if the second young master Situ comes back, he can go in directly, and there is no need to report." ”
Situ Yun pointed behind him and said, "What about them?"
The soldier said, "Yes." ”
Situ Yun said, "Let's go, let's go in." ”
Situ Yun and the others walked in, and at this time the Chinese martial arts officials in the main hall were in the early dynasty.
Situ Yun came in with Sikong Yu and them like this. Situ Yun walked in, knelt down and said loudly: "Minister, Situ Yun, see His Majesty the King." ”
Song Yu whispered: "I heard that the king of the Yuanlong Empire is a woman, I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be a woman." ”
Song Yu wanted to say something, but he suddenly stopped talking, and there was already a deep fear in his eyes, which he couldn't hide no matter how he tried to hide it. No matter how much he suppressed it in his heart, he couldn't suppress it. It was as if he had seen the most terrible thing in his life, a fear that could not be described in any language.
Now Song Yu could feel that this King of the Yuan Dragon Empire was looking at him, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes. He would never believe that there was someone in the Tianwu Continent who had such a powerful power, as long as he looked at you, it would make you scared and make you afraid.
So Song Yu stopped talking, because he was afraid that if he spoke again, his little life would not be saved.
The king of the Yuanlong Empire said, "Get up." ”
Situ Yun said, "Your Majesty King Xie. ”
The king of the Yuanlong Empire said again: "Aren't the two newcomers introducing themselves?"
Zhou Yun said: "Little woman Zhou Yun...... Ippo Empire people. ”
Song Yu slurred: "Under Song Yu, a native of the Yibo Empire. ”
Song Yu lowered his head when he spoke, but his afterglow skimmed the king of the Yuanlong Empire who was sitting at the top from time to time, he was afraid that the woman sitting on the throne might be unhappy, and he could make him disappear in an instant.
After Song Yu and Zhou Yun introduced themselves, the audience was in an uproar, and everyone looked at the two of them with strange eyes, as if they had seen some incredible rare beast. There was a little curiosity in his eyes, but most of all fear.
An old man with a white beard was the first to say, "Kill them!"
Then another black-bearded old man said: "Your Ibo Empire has destroyed the Gad Empire, and now you want to destroy our Yuanlong Empire, the old man will definitely not let you succeed!"
The King of the Yuanlong Empire said, "Quiet. ”
After these two words came out, the audience was silent at all. Her voice was not loud, but it had a strong majesty. It was as if this majesty was in her blood, and she didn't have to be loud to silence the audience.
The king of the Yuanlong Empire said again: "Sikong Yu, do you want to explain. ”
Sikong Yu said, "I'll take the two of them to find something." ”
The King of the Yuanlong Empire said, "What is it?"
Sikong Yu said: "Nine turns of the I Ching Dan." ”
The king of the Yuanlong Empire said, "Which of the two of them needs the Nine Turns of the I Ching Pill?"
Sikong Yu was just about to speak, but Song Yu preemptively said, "I." ”
At this time, Song Yu's legs were trembling, but his eyes were looking straight ahead, looking directly at the face of the woman who was tall. As if it was a provocation, as if to tell her, I'm not afraid of you.
The king of the Yuanlong Empire said, "You are from the Yibo Empire?"
Song Yu said, "Yes." ”
King of the Yuanlong Empire: "You are from the Yibo Empire, but you came to ask me that the Yuanlong Empire wants the Nine Turns of the Yijing Pill, is there no alchemist on the Yibo Empire's side?"
At this time, Zhou Yun said: "Yes, but we can't get the Nine Turns of the I Ching Pill." ”
The King of the Yuanlong Empire chuckled and said, "What you can't get in the Yibo Empire, can you get it in my Yuanlong Empire." Amusing. ”
Zhou Yun said, "Isn't it possible that the alchemists of the Yuanlong Empire can't practice the Nine Turns of the I Ching Pill?"
The king of the Yuanlong Empire said: "If you refine it, of course you can refine it." But why should I give you the pill. ”
Zhou Yun said: "This is not something I should think about, I have an agreement with this prince of the Gad Empire, as long as he can govern Song Yu well, we will withdraw from the Dudan Province of the Gad Empire." But he said that to treat him, he would use the Nine Turns of the I Ching Pill, and we knew that there were people in the Yuanlong Empire who could refine the Nine Turns of the I Ching Pill. ”
At this time, Sikong Yu's face was full of black lines, how ugly his face was. The air was already filled with the smell of gunpowder when the two women talked, and he couldn't have imagined that Zhou Yun, who was humbled to the dust in front of Song Yu, was like a lion in the face of Sima Yuchuan at this time, ready to deal a fatal blow to the creature that violated her territory at any time, even if the person who violated her territory was ten times stronger than her, she would never back down.
