Chapter 642: Death Without Turning a Blind Eye
Yu Shu tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep, and will fall asleep The sky is about to dawn again.
Zhao Xiaozhu was the earliest, knocking on the door one by one to wake them up, and even the horses tied to the outside were fed with forage once, which was really rare.
Yu Shu went to the courtyard to fetch water to wash her face, and saw that Mr. Yanye's door was closed, close in front of her, cold water was splashed on her face, she was excited, and instantly sobered up, hesitated all night, and only then did she become confused.
She took the risk of following Jingchen out of Beijing, just for Yunhua Yizi, seeing that she was only one step away from the truth, she looked ahead and backwards, maybe she would miss the opportunity.
She wiped her face, saw Xue Rui and Zhao Xiaozhu leading the horse from the outside to the door, looked back at the stone puddle next to the water tank, lifted a breath, stomped on it with one foot, and then let out a painful cry, and sat on the ground with numb calves.
"Ahh
Xue Rui heard the cry and hurriedly ran in, Zhao Xiaozhu followed, and saw her fall on the slippery stone slab.
"Ashu, where did you fall?" Xue Rui squatted down to help her.
Jing Chen, who was packing up incense and candles inside, heard the sound and ran out.
Yu Shu frowned and made a painful look, covered his foot and neck and said, "The ground is too slippery, I twisted my foot, hiss, it hurts." β
Seeing this, how could Xue Rui be suspicious, so he picked her up and sent her into the house, Jingchen raised his hand and put it down again, and silently followed in.
Yu Shuwei was on her feet, she couldn't walk the road, so she naturally couldn't ride a horse, although Xue Rui didn't worry about leaving her behind, but there was no other way, the mountain road was dangerous, and it was impossible to go far with two people on a horse.
Xue Rui has always been suspicious of Mr. Yanye. In the current situation, he intended to persuade Jingchen to worship another day, but before he could speak, he was blocked back by Yu Shu's words:
"It's all my fault that I was careless, I came here, but I can't accompany you to give my aunt a stick of incense, big brother, you help me confess my sin in front of my aunt's grave, Jingchen, I'm sorry."
Jingchen shook his head. There is only worry in the eyes. No complaints.
Speaking of this, Xue Rui couldn't speak, thinking about the ring on her hand, and looking at Yu Shu's face. Smoothed her hair. Road:
"Stay here. Let's go back quickly. β
Zhao Xiaozhu interjected: "Don't worry, there is food and vegetables at home, Brother Xiaoyu." When you wait for my master to wake up, tell him that we won't come back at noon, so you can make a meal as soon as you heat it up, and I'll cook something delicious for you in the evening. β
Yu Shu was secretly relieved to see them walk out of the road one by one, she finally coaxed and deceived her, and stayed according to Mr. Yanye's instructions.
It's not that she's really so honest, people don't let her say it, she really sews her mouth, but according to her understanding of Xue Rui, she really showed her the message that Mr. Yanye gave her last night, then he said that he wouldn't let her stay alone.
They walked with Jing Chen, but they each had their own purpose, she didn't know what was most important to Jing Chen, but she believed that for Xue Rui, her life and safety were the first place.
As for her, the most important thing is to solve the mystery of "The Book of Xuannu Liuren".
After Xue Rui and the others left, Yu Shu sat on the bed alone, estimating that they had gone far, the courtyard was quiet, and after waiting for a cup of tea, there was still no movement outside, she couldn't sit still anymore, got out of bed and put on her shoes to find someone.
When he came to Mr. Yanye's door, the door was actually open, and in the morning light, he was still sitting under the window of the cave, with his hair scattered, his coat, and a clay sculpture in his hand, motionless, as if he had sat there all night.
The way he meditated was unbearable, but Yu Shu didn't have the patience to wait.
"Sir." Yu Shu strode up to him, handed him the piece of paper that had been placed at the head of her bed last night, and asked:
"This is the handwriting of the gentleman, dare to ask what is your purpose in making me stay so secretly?"
His body moved, as if he had turned back from a dream, put back the clay sculpture in his hand, covered the box, and walked in the air-dried stone inkstone, picking up the pen and writingβ
'Can you answer me a question first?' β
"Just ask." Yu Shu sat down opposite him, glanced at the paper, and looked at his expression, she was mentally prepared that it would not be so easy to get an answer. When he ran his pen and ink, a question jumped on the paper, but Yu Shu, who was ready to accept her difficulties, was confused.
- 'Who are you?' β
He didn't ask Jingchen, Xue Rui, or what they meant, but he asked who she was.
Yu Shu looked up at him and found that he was looking at her with the same look, and it was the same yesterday, he looked at her as if he had guessed her details.
That question is just for verification.
In his bewildering eyes, Yu Shuqiang calmed himself, put his hands on his knees, and replied with a glance: "My surname is Yu, a single name is a Shu character, a person from Yiyang, Zhaoqing entered Beijing in the thirteenth year to catch the exam, a Dayan female operator, a fourth-class Yi Shi, and now serves in Si Tianjian." β
Her confession, without a single lie, can be described as exhaustive, but she did not see the word "satisfied" on Mr. Yanye's face, on the contrary, he sighed silently and picked up the pen again.
- 'Your face, I have only seen in my life, specious, good and evil, I take the liberty of thinking, your life should be no parents, no sisters, brothers and sisters, life does not know the time, death does not know the period. β
These inferences are "damaged" enough, but they are too unreliable, which makes Yu Shu, who was originally waiting, suddenly laugh, and was about to shake his head to deny it, but he was stunned again, and a thought suddenly came to him:
Her mother is still alive and has a younger brother, but strictly speaking, it is not her real "relative", but the blood relative of the unlucky little girl who died in the Ji family ancestral hall.
If you count her origins, her parents, and her younger brother are indeed not in this world.
Also, don't use the eight characters of her birthday, isn't this called "I don't know when I was born"?
She died in her last life and was reborn as a human being, but she also responded to the sentence "death is unconscious".
After such an association, one by one, Yu Shu suddenly felt a little out of breath, she hid the deepest secret, even Xue Rui never told it, but at this time it seemed to be naked in front of Mr. Yanye. So that she has nothing to hide.
But for what, she obviously has the black ring given by the Qingzheng Taoist, but the other party can calculate her details!?
Yu Shu was shocked for a while, his face inevitably showed a little, and he fell into Mr. Yanye's eyes, and finally breathed a long sigh of relief, no matter how frightened she was, he wrote a sentence on the paper and pushed it over-
I asked, what doubts do you have? It doesn't hurt to be straight. β
Yu Shu was confused. I couldn't hold my breath after a few breaths, so I had to twist my thighs, silently suggesting that I was all cranky just now, so I didn't say anything thoughtless.
"It's true. We came to Anxian this time to find someone. Dare to ask if you recognize this person. Maybe I know his whereabouts. β
- 'Who are you looking for?' β
"Yunhua Yizi, who died twenty years ago." Yu Shu bit word by word.
Then, I saw the man on the other side write three words on the paper in a hurryβ
I am. β
At this moment, Yu Shu didn't know how to describe his mood. Even though she had a gut feeling that he was Yunhua when she saw Mr. Yanye, the impact brought by his own admission still made her stand up in a frustrated manner, and almost knocked over the wooden box on the side of the stone table.
Mr. Yanye, no, he should be called Yunhua now, he reached out and pressed the wooden box, pushed it into the table, looked up and smiled at her, and a few thin tail lines appeared in the corners of his eyes.
This smile strangely made the excited Yu Shu relax, and his thoughts returned to his mind.
This person is really Yunhua, great!
Yu Shu had a hundred questions in his heart, and when it came to the end, he didn't know where to start, and when he saw the wooden box he was holding in his left hand, he had a flash of inspiration and blurted out:
"Sir, can you lend me this box?"
Yun Hua hesitated for a moment, then pushed the box towards her, nodded, and let go of his hand.
Yu Shu hurriedly took it, lifted the lid, and saw that there were several clay figures there, ranging in height and size, pinched one by one lifelike, counting, from left to right, a total of four, look carefully, the two slender bodies are in the shape of a woman, and the two small ones are in the shape of a child.
She observed for a long time before speaking out again: "Mr. told me yesterday that this is your family, so is this Her Royal Highness the Princess?" β
She pointed to the one with a long skirt and long sleeves and a pleasant smile among the two female statues.
Yunhua nodded.
"And what about this, it's your sister?" She pointed to another slender woman with sideburns hanging her head, and there was a vague guess in her heart.
Yunhua shook his head and wrote-'All are insiders. β
That one must be the poor match she heard the storyteller say in the teahouse. Yu Shu silently mourned for the two women who had paid for life by mistake.
"Are these two children the sons of the gentleman?"
Yunhua nodded.
Jingchen is the child of him and the princess, and the other one is Jingchen's brother who has no chance to meet.
"Since the gentleman is not dead, why did he hide here incognito for 20 years, not to see his relatives, but to see things and people like this? Since you brought us here, you must have recognized Jingchen as the son of you and Princess Luyue, father and son met each other, but they didn't recognize each other, what is the reason? Yu Shu has a preconceived good impression of Yunhua, but when he thought that this was a man who did not achieve his goal by unscrupulous means, and even did not hesitate to abandon his wife and children, he calmed down and asked aggressively.
Yunhua hung his head and wrote: 'Someone wants my life. β
Yu Shu raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. is afraid of death to hide?" β
She spoke with contempt, but Yunhua was not angry, still with clear eyebrows and constant eyes, writing-
'I am a man who deserves to die, and it is not a pity to die, but my last wish has not been fulfilled, and I am not willing to die. β
Yu Shu's eyelids jumped, and her heart finally jumped to the point, she didn't want to ask directly about the "Xuannu Liuren Book", just waiting for Yunhua to open his mouth, his last wish, eighty percent was that he failed to complete the old man Qingzheng's instructions to destroy the "Xuannu Liuren Book".
"What are your last wishes?"
Yunhua didn't raise his head, and the pen was on the paper.
It's a big piece of white paper, most of it is full of words, leaving only a few lines of open space, his writing is small, the calligraphy is scribbled than before, Yu Shu got closer to see clearly.
- 'I have an eldest son, and I do not know where he has fallen, and I cannot find him in my life, and I cannot look at him in death. (To be continued......)
