Chapter 32: Meeting the Dead Again
After Ling Yun and the others finished eating, they left in a carriage, and after leaving Taiyuan Mansion for a few days, they did not meet other towns, and lived in some abandoned temples or courtyards every day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 On the way, I met many refugees who had fled, and they were forced to break up their wives and families by the Jin soldiers, and many elderly people had already starved to death halfway through. After Ling Yun saw it, he couldn't bear it, so he took out the dry food he was carrying and distributed it to these refugees. But far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and the food has been robbed in a moment, but there are still many refugees surrounding them, making it difficult for them to move an inch. There were too many refugees, Ling Yun stepped out of the carriage and said, "Don't worry, we have limited dry food to bring, and there is only so much, now we are in a hurry and please make a way for us to go." "The refugees have been begging and refusing to let them go. Ling Yun said: "Look, the sun is about to set, if you stop us like this, everyone will have to sleep on the streets." You'd better find a place to stay so you can get some rest. Seeing that Ling Yun and the others were indeed out of food, the refugees had no choice but to move out of the way and let them leave. After Ling Yun drove the carriage away, Feng Ying asked, "Peak Master, you have given all the food to these refugees, what can we do in the next few days, if we can't meet villages or towns, let alone those refugees, even we will starve to death." Ling Yun didn't think too much about it at that time, and couldn't bear to watch the people starve to death in front of him. We still have some effort to hold on for a while, but these people are powerless and hungry for so many days, and we should give them food. Feng Ying didn't say anything more, being in troubled times was more helpless. A voice came from the carriage: "Brother Ling is benevolent, when I see those refugees, I think of my father and uncle, who also died because of the war, I really hope that the war can end as soon as possible, so that the people can have a place to stay, and no longer live these turbulent lives." Ling Yun heard that it was Mengxue's voice and comforted: "Don't be too sad, we all have too many involuntary bodies in troubled times, but we just need to have a clear conscience." Sooner or later, one day, I believe that the imperial court can drive out the Tartar humiliation and restore my Central Plains. "Mengxue lost her parents due to the war since she was a child, and later met Ning Yuanshan and was brought into the mansion, and then sent to learn spiritualism, this time she was sent to get rid of Ling Yun. She heard that Ling Yun drove away Jin Bing to protect Taiyuan Mansion before, and now she saw Ling Yun's attitude towards refugees, and she couldn't help but have a little more affection for Ling Yun, he is not like the rumored demon who kills people without blinking, but punishes evil and promotes good, which is really the work of chivalrous people. But she couldn't disobey Ning Yuanshan's order, and she was a little confused for a while. Liu Ruyan saw Meng Xue thinking about things and asked, "What are you thinking about?" Meng Xue came back to her senses: "It's nothing, I just think that there are not many good people like Brother Ling who care about the world, and I am very happy to meet you." Mu Xinyue and Mengxue sat in the carriage and didn't know what to say. If it weren't for Liu Ruyan accompanying her, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been able to stay anymore. "You see, there seems to be a ruined temple ahead, let's settle there tonight." Feng Ying's words broke the embarrassment for a long time. Ling Yun looked around, and indeed only this ruined temple was the most suitable for resting. Ling Yun stopped the carriage and led the horse to the temple, which had been abandoned for a long time, the pillars were covered with cobwebs, and the Buddha statue in the middle of the temple was covered with dust. There was a lot of thatch on the ground, and it seems that this was indeed the place where many travelers stayed. He cleaned up briefly, wiped the dust away, and made room to sit. Meng Xue and the others also walked in, and Ling Yun stepped forward: "I've wronged you, we can only rest here tonight." Meng Xue smiled: "Being able to follow Brother Ling, I don't feel wronged." Mu Xinyue looked at the two of them and felt a little uncomfortable, seeing Feng Ying and Wu Mingzhi cleaning up the house, and hurriedly said, "Brother Feng, Brother Wu, I'll help you clean up." Liu Ruyan wanted to fight for Mu Xinyue, but the words were not spoken yet. Ye Tianwen hugged Liu Ruyan and said, "I went out with Ruyan to get some water, we rushed for a day, and we also quenched everyone's thirst." Pulling Liu Ruyan and walking out, after walking out of the temple, Liu Ruyan broke free from Ye Tianwen's hand. Why don't you let me say that the two of them kissed me and I have considered Sister Mu's feelings? Ye Tianwen put his arm on her shoulder and said, "Emotional matters can't be forced, if Xinyue really likes Brother Ling, she should tell him directly, instead of being like now, she may just want to be by Brother Ling's side and watch him be happy." Let's not get involved in their affairs, let them solve it themselves. Liu Ruyan nodded and said, "Okay, I hope Sister Mu can understand it as soon as possible, and don't fall deeper and deeper." "If only you could think so, we told her about it, and she didn't listen to it at all. I can only wait for her to see it slowly. Ye Tianwen hugged Liu Ruyan and said. Ye Tianwen always felt that a pair of eyes were secretly peeking at him in the dark, which was very uncomfortable, but he looked around but didn't find anyone. "What's wrong?" Liu Ruyan asked. Ye Tianwen shook his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, maybe I'm too careful, let's go fetch water." ”
The two of them walked in talking and laughing, but found Ling Yun and the others sitting on the thatch and looking at each other silently. The scene was a little embarrassing, Mu Xinyue and Meng Xue picked up the kettle at the same time and handed it to Ling Yun's eyes: "Brother Ling, drink water." As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they couldn't help but look at each other. Ling Yun took Meng Xue's kettle and said, "Thank you." Mu Xinyue retracted her hand in embarrassment, sat aside, and curled up. In order to resolve the embarrassment, Ye Tianwen said: "It's early autumn now, and the night is a little cool, let's build a fire to keep warm." As he spoke, he grabbed some thatch and started to make a fire. Sister Xinyue, how can this thatch last all night, you can go with me to find some firewood. Feng Ying said. Mu Xinyue nodded, and the two walked out together. Feng Yingying said earnestly: "Sister Xinyue, what do you think of Brother Feng's usual treatment of you." "Ever since I went to Lingyun Peak, it was Brother Feng who has been taking care of me, and Brother Feng has been very kind to me." Mu Xinyue said absentmindedly. "Okay, what Brother Feng told you, do you listen or not." Mu Xinyue hesitated a little: "Brother Feng naturally won't harm me, I'll listen to what you say." Feng Ying said: "I have always known your feelings for the peak master, but you have also seen it these days, the peak master's eyes are only that Mengxue girl, and he is not as good to you as before." He also feels your love for him, and he wants to distance himself from you. This shows that he has no childlike affection for you, so why should you hang yourself on him. According to me, the jade unicorn before is good, he is very good to you, he has you in his heart, you have to look away, and cherish the people who are good to you. Mu Xinyue said: "Thank you Brother Feng for caring about me so much, in fact, I don't know that Brother Yu is interested in me, but how can I give up my feelings for Brother Ling for so many years." I can also see that Brother Ling is really moved by Miss Mengxue, and he looks at her differently. I will slowly give up my feelings for Brother Ling, don't worry, Brother Feng, I won't let myself be trapped by love. Said and laughed: "I'm so beautiful, are you still afraid that you won't find Ruyi Langjun?" One day I will definitely bring my future husband to you, let you check first, if he can't even pass you, why marry me. Feng Ying also laughed: "This is the Xinyue I know, okay, I'll wait for that day, when the time comes, I will definitely check for you." If that kid dares to treat you badly, I'll break his legs. Mu Xinyue nodded, tears already rolling in her eyes. Turning around, he said, "Okay, don't talk about me, let's hurry up and find some firewood and go back, don't let them wait in a hurry." Feng Ying knew that it was impossible to make Mu Xinyue give up her feelings for Ling Yun for a while, but he had to wake her up and not let her be obsessed, otherwise she would be hurt in the end.
It was getting dark, and the early autumn weather was a little cool, and they all gathered around the fire to keep warm. Usually they chatted happily, but after one more person, everyone didn't know what to say, and even Liu Ruyan, who usually talked the most, snuggled up to Ye Tianwen's side and was silent. Suddenly, a cough broke the silence that had been maintained for a long time. They looked out the door, and when they saw someone coming, they were surprised at first, then delighted. Liu Ruyan stood up and said happily: "Brother Yu, how could it be you, haven't you already left?" How could it be here now. "The person who came turned out to be a jade unicorn, which surprised everyone. Jade Qilin smiled: "I didn't know where to go, so I stayed in the Drunken Immortal Building. But I was really worried about one person in my heart, so I found it. Saying that, she looked at Mu Xinyue, Liu Ruyan leaned into Mu Xinyue's ear and whispered: "Sister Mu, you see that Brother Yu cares about you a lot, and you are also kind to him, don't always be cold." "Mu Xinyue is indeed a little moved, and the jade unicorn is also a talent, both civil and military. Ask yourself, he is indeed no worse than Ling Yun, but Mu Xinyue can't love him. Maybe getting along with Ling Yun day and night on weekdays made her obsessed too much. She said: "Since you are here, sit down and keep warm, you have rushed over with all your might, hurry up and rest." When Yu Qilin heard Mu Xinyue say this, he didn't mention how happy he was, usually Mu Xinyue didn't have a good face for himself, but he didn't expect to care about himself so much today. He was a little uncomfortable, and said hesitantly: "Okay, everything is up to Miss Mu." Liu Ruyan deliberately pushed Mu Xinyue to the side of the jade qilin, so that the two of them could get closer. Ling Yun's words at this time surprised everyone. "Brother Yu has come all the way to find Xinyue, I'm afraid it's Xinyue, you are infatuated with Xinyue, and we all see it in our eyes. Xinyue has followed her master since she was a child, and now that her master is not by her side, I will make the decision for her, I promise her to you I don't know what you think? Although the jade qilin was very happy in his heart, he thought about it, Ling Yun was actually willing to marry Mu Xinyue to me, I must also know Mu Xinyue's feelings for him, he Lingyun didn't want it to give it to me, did he think Mu Xinyue was a cargo? Has he considered Mu Xinyue's feelings? He looked at Mu Xinyue and saw the loss and helplessness in her eyes, which made people feel distressed. Jade Qilin smiled: "Thank you Brother Ling for your kindness, but I really can't accept it." Ling Yun couldn't believe it, everyone saw the Jade Qilin's intentions for Mu Xinyue, but he didn't accept this marriage. Liu Ruyan pushed the jade unicorn: "You are stupid, what you have always dreamed of is in front of you, why don't you accept it." Ling Yun also puzzled: "Yes, isn't this what you've always wanted?" Yu Qilin said solemnly: "I have always been obsessed with Miss Mu, but I hope that one day she will fall in love with me from the bottom of her heart, not your words." It's disrespectful to her, and it's disrespectful to me. What I want I will get through my own efforts, not handouts from others. If I accept your kindness, I believe that Miss Mu will definitely look down on me, and even I will look down on myself. Ling Yun was silent, and Mu Xinyue looked at the Jade Qilin, her eyes full of gratitude. Everyone's favorability towards the Jade Qilin has also increased a lot, and Meng Xue said: "It's all to blame Brother Ling for not thinking about it, I didn't expect that Yu Gongzi was so affectionate to Sister Mu, which really makes me admire." I apologize to you on behalf of Brother Ling. The Jade Qilin stopped her and said, "Why did Miss Mengxue say this, Brother Ling is also kind, how can I blame him." It's just that only I know about feelings, and I understand Brother Ling's kindness. Liu Ruyan said with a smile: "It's still Brother Yu's thoughtfulness, I hope you can impress Sister Mu's heart as soon as possible." Mu Xinyue pushed Liu Ruyan and told her not to say any more. Mu Xinyue said: "Yu Gongzi is really a righteous gentleman, Xinyue's rudeness to Gongzi in the past has made amends to you here." The jade qilin said: "Let it pass in the past, the future is the most important, I know that Miss Mu does not have a place in my heart, but I believe that one day I will occupy a place in Miss Mu's heart." Please also ask Miss Mu to call me Brother Yu with Ruyan in the future, I can call you Xinyue? Mu Xinyue did not refuse or agree, Liu Ruyan said impatiently: "Sister Mu agrees without speaking, she will call you Brother Yu in the future." Mu Xinyue still didn't speak, and the jade qilin smiled happily knowing that she had acquiesced in her heart. Feng Ying saw that Mu Xinyue had someone who loved her to take care of her, and her previous worries also disappeared. Everyone slept soundly that night, but they didn't know what kind of disaster awaited them next.
