10. Affection
Lu Yunchun stood outside the gate of Xuanwu Villa again, he never dreamed that he would return here so quickly, he looked up, the door was closed and it was vaguely the scene of that day, but he felt as if he was in a different world. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This is the only lair of the Baicao Sect that he knows, and the only place where he can take revenge, and now that his family is ruined, whether someone else kills him or he kills someone else, it doesn't matter to him anymore.
He climbed over the wall and went in like last time, and everything seemed to be no different from the past, every flower and plant, every time he entered the courtyard, and when he entered the seventh entrance, it was still the epiphany, but it had not yet begun to wither.
Xiao Xuan's window slowly opened, revealing Ruan Fangzhi's face that seemed to be a little sad, and after a few days of not seeing her, her complexion seemed to have decreased a lot. Seeing Lu Yunchun, there was a reproachful look in her eyes, but she didn't say anything, because someone had already spoken, it was a woman's voice, very soft and very pleasant, and said, "Ah Ruan, there is a distinguished guest coming, why don't you open the door to greet you?" ”
Hearing this voice, the expression on Ruan Fangzhi's face immediately changed, all the blame and worries disappeared in an instant, and the familiar smile appeared on her face again, but it just looked, but it was always a little fake. She turned around and called respectfully, "Sect Master! ”
Lu Yunchun never dreamed that he would have such good luck, if he could die with the Hundred Herbs Sect Master, it would be considered a blessing!
The door was open, and it was a room larger than the living room, with no tables and chairs, but only an incense case in the center, and a peculiarly shaped green plum branch was inserted into the jade vase on the table. There was a middle-aged woman in white clothes and a yellow belt standing next to the incense case, her eyebrows were lightly swept, but it was difficult to hide her natural beauty.
Lu Yunchun was stunned, how could this Hundred Grass Sect leader have a familiar feeling? He barely restrained his resentment and said coldly, "You are the sect leader of the Hundred Grass Sect?" ”
The woman smiled and said, "I am Wu Danyue, the leader of the Hundred Herbs Sect, what, don't you believe it?" ”
Lu Yunchun said coldly: "I don't care whether I believe it or not, it's all the demons of the Demon Sect anyway!" ”
Ruan Fangzhi said coquettishly: "Don't be rude to the sect leader!" ”
Wu Danyue only smiled lightly and calmly, and said: "Ah Ruan, don't be rude to the guests, let's kill his whole family, he should hate us, it's just human nature!" ”
Lu Yunchun didn't expect her to say that the murder and arson were so lightly talked about, and her blood was boiling for a while, and she couldn't speak.
Wu Danyue smiled leisurely: "The son seriously injured my own child, and abolished his martial arts, the emphasis in the rivers and lakes is to return a tooth for a tooth, and blood for blood, so I repaid the favor and ruined your family." ”
Lu Yunchun was furious, and said in a trembling voice: "You female devil! ”
Wu Danyue also ignored it, and said: "But I heard that Gongzi is a masterpiece of a generation, and I also want to see with my own eyes what the person who seriously injured my son looks like, so I gave you a chance to find here, and now you have seen me, and you know these many causes and effects, but death is also blinding!" ”
Lu Yunchun shouted angrily, and was about to rush up with his sword, but his true qi couldn't be raised, so he felt a burst of weakness and fell to the ground softly.
Wu Danyue sneered: "In front of me, if you still want to draw the sword, you can't help but underestimate the Baicao Sect!" I just want you to watch the big revenge in front of you, but you can't take revenge, not even desperately, this kind of death is interesting, right? Her eyes finally showed a look of resentment, and she said coldly: "Whoever calls me unhappy for a while, I don't want to call him happy!" She raised her eyes to look at the epiphany in the courtyard, revealing a confused look, and said leisurely: "The epiphany that belongs to you is going to be thanked, but unfortunately you don't have the strength to look back, you will be poisoned by my dark incense, you will slowly die weakly, and you can't even move your hands and feet, but you can talk and vent!" ”
Lu Yunchun gritted his teeth and didn't say a word, he didn't want this woman to be proud, so he didn't want her to see his anger and vomiting blood. For the first time in his life, he knew that hating someone could be as deep as loving someone, and he could even feel deeper pain and humiliation.
Wu Danyue was slightly surprised when she saw that he didn't speak, and smiled: "I haven't seen such a stubborn and interesting man for a long time." I'm going to have to see how hard your bones are! ”
Suddenly, a woman outside the door said softly: "You, you let him go!" ”
Lu Yunchun's heart was shocked, but when he looked at Wu Danyue's face again, his face seemed to have changed a little, and even his voice trembled slightly, and said, "You are here too?" ”
Bilian walked in with her head down, she was also restraining the excitement in her heart, but she finally raised her head, looked directly at her mother, and said lightly: "I thought I would never come, but I can't help but come, you, you just let him go!" ”
Wu Danyue shook her head and said, "This is impossible!" After a slight pause, he said curiously: "Why do you want to help him?" Do you know that if he hurt your brother, your father will come and fight against me? ”
Bi Lian said softly: "He is no longer in the same world as you, and he will never be right with you." ”
Wu Danyue's body was shocked, her eyes showed a sad look, and she said in a trembling voice: "He! ”
Bi Lian said: "He died, didn't you ever think of it?" She raised her head slightly, looking at her mother's familiar but unfamiliar face, she had some pleasure of revenge, but she felt more pathos, why, it became like this?
Wu Danyue was in a trance, at this moment, it seemed that she didn't even exist anymore, but didn't she expect that there would be a day? But why are you still speechless? I don't know how long it took, but she was able to barely regain her calm on the surface, but there was a lot more struggle in her voice, asking, "Where is he buried?" ”
Bi Lian's head hung down slightly, and said, "He has broken his bones and ashes, and he no longer exists between heaven and earth." ”
Wu Danyue trembled again, and said angrily: "You are so ruthless? ”
Bi Lian raised her head and asked rhetorically, "Why can't I be ruthless?" This was my father's wish when he died, do you remember the vow he made? In this life, he has a negative teacher, a negative teacher's kindness, and would rather die after death, and never be reborn! ”
Wu Danyue's nose was sour, remembering the poisonous oath he had made for himself in front of his master who was regarded as his biological father, and now he said that his former beloved no longer existed in this land of heaven and earth, and he couldn't help but tremble his heartstrings, and he couldn't speak.
I only heard Bi Lian's voice and said softly: "When he swore a poisonous oath, he didn't expect that the person who made him willing to make this poisonous oath still abandoned him, leaving him alone to be crushed and scattered, and he would never be reborn." ”
Lu Yunchun didn't understand why she wanted to lie to Wu Danyue, but she had already guessed that there must be an unusual relationship between them, and she was at a loss in her heart, and she didn't know what kind of taste she should have.
Bi Lian leaned down and gently helped Lu Yunchun up, there were no tables and chairs in this room, so it was not good for a while? I had to hold him again, lean on top of myself, and said, "I want to take him away, will you let him go?" ”
Lu Yunchun leaned on her so close for the first time in his life, smelled the faint fragrance on her body, was sad and a little annoyed, and said in his heart: But I didn't expect to ask her to save her today! Thinking that she was hiding all kinds of deceptions from herself, her heart swelled with anger, and she said angrily: "I don't need you to pity me, I have already told you, the two of us have exhausted their love, and there will be nothing to do with each other from now on!" It was I who was blind, and I ...... that day."
Wu Danyue said lightly: "Did you hear that?" There are some things that cannot be changed. ”
Bi Lian raised her head and looked at her mother pleadingly, Wu Danyue said, "Do you know that he has harmed your brother's life as well as death, and he is like a waster?" Such a person, you want to save him! And I, I ordered his whole family to be killed, and you are the daughter of his enemy, and this grudge will never be resolved. ”
Bi Lian's face turned pale, but what was even more painful was Lu Yunchun, in an instant he understood the truth that Bi Lian was hiding, she turned out to be the daughter of the Hundred Herbs Sect Master, such a weak and gentle Bi Lian turned out to be the daughter of the biggest cult leader in the world! So is she also the enemy of the extinction? Wu Danyue's words suddenly threw him into a bottomless abyss that was deeper and colder than just now, and said in a trembling voice: "You!? ”
Bi Lian turned her head, couldn't bear to look at his expression, and said in a low voice: "Childe, I'm sorry, I once told Madame that I ......" She sighed in her heart, she also knew very well what was the use of talking about this matter now? The dead will never live, because even the mistakes can no longer be remedied.
Lu Yunchun wanted to say something, but what he let out was a howl like a wounded beast, at this moment, he really hated to die early, instead of living, but he knew such a truth.
Wu Danyue said: "Have you seen it all?" ”
Bi Lian held back her tears and said firmly: "I don't care what he thinks, even if he hates me to death in his heart, I still want him to live well, so I must take him away!" ”
Wu Danyue looked at her daughter, her resolute appearance reminded her of her original self, who said that her daughter's temperament was weak, everyone was wrong. "Why are you bothered?"
Bi Lian said: "When you apostatized for your father, your grandfather also asked you, why bother? Six years ago, when you abandoned us with your younger brother, my father also sighed: If you know today, why did you suffer in the first place? Mother, how have you ever wavered in your determination? ”
Wu Danyue stared at her daughter, six years later, she had changed her daughter so strangely, she inevitably felt some mother's relief in her heart, but too many things can be justified, but she can no longer go back. The mother's heart and the sect leader's heart struggled in her heart, but when she remembered her pale son who was wrapped around mian on the hospital bed, her heart hardened again, this person destroyed her beloved son, that is, she destroyed herself, and he was not an ordinary person, and if he stayed, sooner or later it would be the aftermath of the Baicao Sect, and he must not be let go. said coldly at the moment: "The past, there is no need to mention it, I am very happy when you come back, but I will not let him go." ”
Bilian shook her head and said, "No matter what, I'm going to take him away." ”
Wu Danyue said: "Can you take him away?" ”
Bi Lian gritted her teeth and said, "I always have to give it a try!" ”
Wu Danyue said: "Do you know that you are going against your biological mother!" ”
Bi Lian said sadly: "It was my own mother who forced me to do this!" ”
Wu Danyue's heart softened and asked, "Why are you doing this to him?" ”
Bi Lian was silent, not knowing how to answer, and after a long time, she said softly: "Then why did you have to like your father back then?" ”
Wu Danyue said in a low voice: "But you have also seen our ending, Lian'er, there will always be different kinds of people in this world, and they are reluctant to be together, only everyone is suffering." ”
Bilian caught a glimpse of Lu Yunchun out of the corner of her eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile, this smile was full of joy and desolation, but no one could understand it, and said softly: "I didn't expect to be with him, he hated me to death in his heart, how could he still be with me?" I know it very well. ”
Wu Danyue was slightly shocked by her words, and a thought suddenly appeared in her heart, and said: "Lian'er, it's okay if you want me to let you take him away, but I want you to promise to join my Baicao Sect and inherit the position of my sect leader, your younger brother is now abandoned, and there is no successor to the Baicao Sect at the moment, and you are the only qualified person." ”
Bilian's body was shocked, she didn't expect her mother to say such a thing, and she was so confused for a while that she didn't know how to answer. Lu Yunchun's chest was also pounding, and he didn't know whether to expect her to agree or not to agree, thinking in his heart: If she doesn't agree, I will die, but what if she agrees? I naturally think that the Hundred Grass Sect is a crooked sect, but this is her mother's religion, and it is the most powerful and wealthy sect in the world, if she can become the sect leader, what kind of honor will it be? She has her mother to take care of, so naturally she can only live a better life than before, but why don't I want her to be the head of the sect? Am I not wanting her to live well? Or are I afraid that if one day she is the leader, I will have to be her enemy? If I don't die this time, will I kill her? Alas, her mother killed my whole family, what is there to say about that? But it's none of her business, God, how did she get me into such a situation?
Wu Danyue said again: "I don't have to hide it from you, you should know that when he came in, he smelled the fragrance of herbs, then the epiphany, and finally smelled the fragrance of green plums when he entered the room, and now many poisons in his body contain each other, although he will not die for a while, but it is also difficult to get rid of the poisoning because of the excessive drama, although you have never seen it, but you should have heard of such a poisoning method called sparse shadow and dark incense, the method of detoxification, I have not learned." Even if you take him away, he will only live for three more days. ”
Bi Lian was silent for a while, and said slowly: "Before my father died, he once asked me to swear a poisonous oath that I cannot use martial arts in this life and this life, and I cannot be in the company of the Baicao Sect in this life and this life, and I will harm the decent martial arts, otherwise I will be destroyed by heaven and earth, and I will not be able to live beyond my life after death." ”
Wu Danyue showed a wry smile on her face and said, "Then you don't want to?" ”
Who knew that Bilian shook her head and said slowly: "I naturally want to agree, even if Lu Gongzi wants to die, he shouldn't die here, die in the family of the enemy he hates." So, Mother, I'm still going to take him away. ”
Wu Danyue was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, and said, "So, what about the poisonous oath you made?" Aren't you afraid? ”
I don't know how long it took for her to hear Bi Lian answer softly: "I am my father's daughter, and it is very appropriate to inherit my father's fate." ”

Outside the door of Xuanwu Villa, the carriage had already been prepared, and it was Ruan Fangzhi who sent them out, this laughing girl seemed to have sadness in her eyes, Bi Lian gently held Ruan Fangzhi's hand, her hand was so cold, Ruan Fangzhi couldn't help but tremble, Bi Lian gently asked: "Miss Ruan, thank you for taking care of my brother!" I was in such a hurry that I couldn't even see him! She laughed slightly and said, "I don't know how he is going to blame me!" ”
For some reason, Ruan Fangzhi has always felt that this smile is full of despair and sorrow, which makes her want to cry.
The carriage was galloping on the official road, and it seemed that the destination had already been chosen, Lu Yunchun couldn't help it, and he didn't want to speak, but after two hours, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "I'm going to die, can you ask me where I want to go?" ”
"You're not going to die!" Bilian said softly.
Lu Yunchun suddenly felt a sadness in his heart, and after a while, he asked, "Why did you agree?" Why? ”
"If I don't agree, Mother won't let me take you away." Bilian finally turned her back, but Lu Yunchun saw her pale tears rippling on her cheeks, and her heart ached for no reason, "Why?" Why lie to me? He finally couldn't help but ask, but then he felt regret.
Bi Lian turned back to look at his eyes, and said sadly: "Childe, please believe that I am not intentional, I am not intentional!" ”
Shocked by such a look and expression, Lu Yunchun forgot to speak for a while. "If," Bilian said softly, but she didn't say any more, there was no if.
The carriage galloped without stopping for two days and one night before stopping, Bilian gently hugged Lu Yunchun out, as if holding a rare treasure, her face appeared a rare flush for several days, and her eyes also showed excitement, Lu Yunchun didn't know what it was for, he was going to die, but she was not depressed, so this became a not very reasonable explanation.
The two horses, who had been over-spurred, stopped and fell to the ground not long after, foaming at the mouth, and in order to come to this place, they were exhausted to death.
The valley here is the most beautiful valley Lu Yunchun has ever seen in his life, looking at it from a distance, the seemingly endless grassy slopes are full of all kinds of flowers, there is no harsh winter slaughter, it seems that the early spring has arrived in advance, there is a faint sound of flowing water in the distance, the sky here seems to be extraordinarily blue, and the clouds are extraordinarily leisurely, but here it gives Lu Yunchun an indescribable feeling, not liking nor disliking, but awkward, because there is no trace of life here, Originally, there should be a sika deer in the flowers and green grass, or there should be a running hare, but there is nothing here, only the beauty of tranquility.
"Is this the place you chose for me to be buried?" Lu Yunchun deliberately pretended to be careless, if she thought that she could escape like this, then it would be better to face it earlier.
"You're not going to die, Childe." Bi Lian's voice was still so gentle, she lowered her head and looked at the man in her arms, such a close gaze made Lu Yunchun's heart beat violently a few times, he was afraid that this would be detected by Bi Lian, and he couldn't help but hate himself a little.
Bi Lian carried him slowly towards the hillside, and said slowly and softly: "Behind this hillside, there is a valley, there is a strange man living in the valley, he knows the most exquisite medical skills and martial arts in the world, he will definitely be able to save you, and he once swore that if anyone can do the conditions he asked, he will meet this person's requirements, no one has done it, but this time, I have to do it." ”
Her soft voice was unusually soft, and Lu Yunchun almost felt like she was telling a myth, but her eyes revealed her seriousness. She walked very slowly, and every step seemed to be difficult, but her expression seemed to be very happy, and for some reason, Lu Yunchun was a little scared.
"When I was 10 years old, I used to be here with my father! He used to like me very much, but my father was reluctant to give me to him. She said in a low voice, smiling slightly, Lu Yunchun had a strange feeling, it seemed that there were only two of them left in this world, this feeling was really strange and profound!
"Childe, if you learn his martial arts, then your mother will never be able to hurt you."
"Childe, that's all I can do. Do you still blame me in your heart? ”
Her face became more and more pale, although her expression was still the same joy, which made Lu Yunchun's heart ache, and she almost couldn't help but comfort her. But I heard her whisper and said: "Many things are difficult for people, but I don't want to embarrass you, sometimes I really envy some people, who can live peacefully in the days favored by God, but we have to endure so many ......"
Her footsteps suddenly staggered, and Lu Yunchun in the bump finally saw the most shocking scene in his life, the green leaves and delicate flowers were densely covered with blue knife tips, shining with light, Bilian's feet were already bloody and blurred, dragging out a long blood mark, along the way, she actually walked from the tip of the knife!
At this moment, Lu Yunchun almost stopped breathing, and he shouted like a five-year-old child: "Bilian! Bilian lowered her head to look at him, and smiled gently, this smile was naturally a little sad, but more proud and satisfied, for a long time after that, this smile tortured him day and night. But at this moment, he had fainted.
※※※
When he woke up again, the fire in the bamboo hut was blazing, and an old man stood by the window with a scroll in one hand, and tapped gently with the other.
He searched the room for the familiar figure, no, he managed to sit up, but then he fell heavily on the bamboo bed, and he was almost shocked to find that he could actually move!
Hearing the sound, the old man's eyes turned, "I think you should wake up too!" His voice still had Wu in it, but it was very soft.
"You?" After being stunned for a moment, Lu Yunchun suddenly recalled what Bi Lian said, the strange people in the valley?
"It's your master!" The old man put the scroll in his hand on the bamboo table, approached the bedside, and said, "You haven't done the apprenticeship yet, but it doesn't matter, I have already admitted it, and I will worship the teacher when the poison is exhausted!" ”
His attitude made Lu Yunchun a little overwhelmed, as if everything was a foregone conclusion, but he told him afterwards, and after a while, he asked sneeringly: "What about Bilian?" ”
The old man said lightly: "She's dead!" He reached out and grabbed Lu Yunchun's pulse, closed his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something.
"Dead?" Lu Yunchun asked in a daze, can't believe that he told him in such a flat tone that a life is gone, and Bilian is dead? No, he said to himself in his heart, this new master must be joking with himself, to see if he is still so annoyed with her, to see if he will die because her mother also hates him, no, just try himself.
"You can't get too excited, or it will affect your recovery!" The old man opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes seemed to shoot out of the essence, and he said almost mockingly: "What can she do but die?" She can't be the leader of her mother, if you come back alive, you will have to be enemies with her own mother, maybe you will have enemies with her, and she will send you here, what if she doesn't die? ”
Lu Yunchun's whole body was cold, and he muttered: "Impossible, death, impossible!" Master, don't play such a joke with me and tell me what happened? Why is all this? How so? ”
The old man's face that had gone through the vicissitudes of the world finally showed a look of pity, and said: "She did not hesitate to go up the knife mountain for you in order to ask me to agree to her pleading," the old man paused, as if he didn't think of it, "I used to hear people swear a false oath of the mountains and seas, and they all said that they would not hesitate to go up the sword mountain and go down the sea of fire for the other party, in fact, the oath was more broken than paper, I didn't expect that someone could really do this, I thought that no one was willing to do this for others, so I said I would agree to everything, I don't believe that there is such an outlier in the world." , It turns out that there really is......" The old man's voice seemed to come from afar, but he heard it so clearly, "The tip of the knife is quenched with poison, she has no luck to resist at all, she will not be able to send you soon," the old man lowered his eyes, and seemed to be a little frustrated, "Since I was a child, I said that she was not born well, she was a blessed person, so she let her father give up for me to stay in this valley, but her father was reluctant, she finally came, but it was such a result?" The old man shook his head, sorry.
Lu Yunchun heard it quietly, and his heart had turned to ashes and was no longer beating, so everything was quiet.
※※※
Spring came and went, but the valley was full of falling flowers.
Lu Yunchun often stands in front of Bilian's grave, like her father's grave, this is a tomb without a tombstone, which is the easiest to be forgotten by people and time, but she has built the most gorgeous tomb in another person's heart, this is the longest place that is not easy to forget?
Lu Yunchun thought: Why is there such an outlier in the world? Was it for the original poisonous oath? If you don't become a sect leader, you won't be ruined from now on, but why do you have to be so decisive in your choice? She is loved, but hopeless, and her fate seems to have been attached to tragedy at birth. But what about yourself? Is this the best way to live in such a numb life now? The excitement and joy, anger and sorrow that I once had, seem to have died and withered, and sometimes, struggle is worthwhile, and sometimes, it is meaningless to get, I don't think I know? Can everything be re-chosen? Since you can't, it's better to be so numb, right? It turns out that the most helpless thing in the world is the past that can never be recovered......
※※※
Lu Yunchun will not see it, there is a small bamboo hut in the hidden place where he often stands, and a woman in a wheelchair often looks at his figure quietly, although they can no longer say a word, but every time she always thinks bitterly and happily: At least, the last thing I heard him say was that he was calling my name......
