Chapter 36: The Rumors Will Die (2)
It was night, starless and moonless, and the sky was as dark as ink. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Now that they got what they wanted, Duan Chengcheng, Shen Yu and the others naturally didn't dare to stay in Mingyue Palace for longer, and they all went down the mountain.
At the bottom of the mountain is the water of the Black Lake, which is far apart from each other, and it is not easy for people to cross it. In addition, there is a weak undercurrent in the middle of the lake, and the buoyancy is already weak, so if you want to cross to the opposite bank safely, you must have a bamboo raft made of black bamboo here to cross.
However, it was late at night, and there were no ferries on the shores of Blackwater Lake. They had no choice but to spend the night in the mountains until dawn before leaving.
The night is quiet, and the insects are chirping.
As the night progresses, the cold air in the mountains becomes heavier and heavier, the mist rises and swirls, and the huge mountain forest is dark and hazy. Two bonfires were faintly lit by the lake, and the light of the fires swayed in the deep dark forest, which was extremely eye-catching.
Several injured women in black were healing and resting on the side, there were wild beasts in the infinite mountains all the year round, in order to prevent changes, the rest of the people went to various main roads in the forest to take turns on duty.
Duan Chengcheng sat by the campfire, the jumping firelight illuminating her pale face, fine beads of sweat on her face, layer by layer condensed into drops, and quietly slipped down her cheeks. She exhausted her true qi in the battle with Gongzi Xuan, and suffered extremely serious internal injuries, and she still felt extremely painful at this time. But she just stared at the brocade box in her hand silently, her expression was indifferent and ordinary, and she didn't look unusual.
Shen Yu added some firewood to the side, and turned his head to look at Duan Chengcheng from time to time, seeing that her face was terrifyingly white, but she just stared at the brocade box in her hand in a daze. I didn't prepare to heal my wounds, and I didn't want to say a word, so I was a little too quiet.
He took a small white porcelain vase from his sleeve and handed it to her, "Take one and you'll feel better." ”
When Duan Qingcheng heard the movement, he finally took his attention away from the small brocade box and looked at the thing that Shen Yu handed over, "What is this?" ”
"Heart Protector." He said.
She took the pill, took one pill and took it, and after a little pranayama, she raised her eyes and looked at Shen Yu, "Thank you!" ”
Seeing that she thanked her so seriously, Shen Yu just shook her head and smiled, "We have lived together, so you don't have to ......be polite with me."
Duan Qingcheng glanced at him lightly again, looked at the white porcelain bottle she had just taken from Shen Yu's hand, and his eyes were slightly pale.
"With such a precious Heart Protecting Pill, it's not easy to find one from the rivers and lakes, but you have so many?" She looked at him, and the meaning of her words couldn't be more obvious.
There are more than a dozen pills in that bottle, and the Heart Protecting Pill is a miracle medicine that is hard to find in the rivers and lakes, where did he get these?
Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, and quickly pointed to several women in black on the side and explained, "It's not mine, it's ...... from them."
"But you're their young master, aren't you?" Duan Qingcheng smiled indifferently and handed him back the white porcelain vase.
"This ......" Shen Yu took the porcelain vase, and saw that she was asking tightly, and there was no reply for a while.
Duan Tingcheng's eyes were slightly cold, seeing that he still didn't tell the truth, he just shook his head and said: "I really can't think about it, with your identity as the young master of Tianji Building, what benefits can you get by taking great pains to approach me and the first village in the world?"
"So you know everything......" he pouted sheepishly, fiddling with the fan in his hand in a boring way.
She looked at the woman in black on the side, her eyes were calm, but there was an obvious sense of precaution, "They are all the secret guards of Tianji Tower, if even they can't recognize them, then wouldn't my Duan Allure walk on the rivers and lakes in vain?" ”
"Okay, I'll admit it." He nodded and explained, "But that was many years ago, and this time I accidentally exposed my whereabouts on a momentary basis, and they chased after me......"
Duan Qingcheng ignored his explanation and only looked up at the dark sky, "Then can you tell me what your purpose is for approaching me?" ”
"Why do you think I must have a purpose in approaching you?" Shen Yu looked at Duan Qingcheng, as if he was angry but not angry, and seemed to be smiling rather than laughing.
"Don't blame me for being too ruthless," she said: "After walking the rivers and lakes all these years, the people who dare to come close to my Duan Allure City are either profitable to kill me, and few people have no purpose......"
Seeing her like this, Shen Yu was speechless for a while. Also, the whole Jianghu has been in turmoil because of her all these years, and she has to guard against forces from all sides every moment, and it is understandable that she has become indifferent and ruthless over time. He didn't know if he had a purpose, but she seemed to have forgotten that he existed.
He looked at her and sighed helplessly: "Actually, you were quite cute when you were a child, not as indifferent as you are now......"
