Chapter Ninety-Four: A Change of Life
If there is one thing that makes Tokyo famous for its spring scenery, it is the snow cherry trees planted on both sides of the main street, which are some years old, and the canopy of the trees stretches for miles on both sides of the street, and the canopy of the trees is higher than the buildings visible on the street. Probably named after the flowers, the snow cherry blossoms are extremely beautiful flowers, the flowers are clustered, the flowers are as white as snow, and they often bloom in the late spring nights, and the gorgeous flowers that fill the branches of the trees look like the shape of the trees piled up with snow from a distance, and the fairy magic is breathtaking.
Then, with the first rays of sunlight shining on both sides of the streets of Tokyo the next morning, it is as if the whole world is lit up, and people rush out of their homes to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the flowers, and sigh as if the main street has been renewed overnight and covered with snow.
The great surprise and visual impact are very strong and spectacular, just like the poem written by Cen Shen "Suddenly like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms", the same is the excitement of people in the face of the beautiful scenery, the difference is that the poem uses a metaphor to describe the snow scene, but here is the real spring breeze, blowing the flowers of thousands of trees overnight, like snow is eye-catching.
In the past, when there was no pox epidemic in the city of Tokyo, the spring and moonlit nights could always attract some literati and artists to gather under the trees, patiently waiting for the flowers to bloom, admiring the flowers to the moon.
At this time, it is a good time for the flowers to bloom, and the silver-like moonlight is evenly distributed in the streets and alleys, full of snow white, but under the trees there is no longer the idle and elegant figure of the ink and literati.
The trees are full of flowers, and only the branches of the nightingale are alone to enjoy, singing with a silent moonlight as if composing the most poignant song.
The night was quiet, and the singing nightingale seemed to have a premonition of change, and flapped its wings towards the full moon, and the wind of the wing feathers shook off the petals of the branches, and the snow fell one after another.
Under the snow cherry trees, a group of people galloped in the shadows of the trees, like a bolt of lightning across the sparsely populated streets, running fast all the way.
The leading man's face was gloomy, and he stepped on the horse and struck the horse on the hind buttocks, and the speed of the gallop increased suddenly.
The moonlight squeezed down from the dense flowers, and fell to the black hair that was buttoned like silk in the jade-inlaid silver crown, and he was dressed in a crescent moon robe hunting in the wind, and his figure was extremely upright and perfect with a rhino horn belt tied around his waist, and under the rhino horn belt was a fine mutton fat white jade, and a black tassel fell at the end, mixed with a few mischievous petals flying wantonly.
The bumps on the horse's back caused a violent cough from time to time, the man frowned, his good-looking eyes were a little more irritable, and the jade chopstick-like fingers curled slightly, blocking his lips, but he still couldn't resist the surging cough.
Because of the fact that he has not recovered from vaccination, Helian Che's body is still very weak, his thin lips are bloodless, and his whole person seems to have lost weight in just a few days, and he seems to be about to fall off the horse when he coughs.
On the flying horse that followed, Chen Thirty couldn't bear it, and tried to persuade him to stop several times, but he couldn't say anything when the words came to his lips.
At this time, everyone knew that if he didn't find Ye Lingyi, who was robbed by Tang Luo, how could he give up?
According to the groom who was feeding the horses at the time, he witnessed Tang Luo robbing Ye Lingyi and knocking him unconscious, snatching the groom's horse, and galloping away all the way outside the city gate.
But why did Don Luo do this? Ye Lingyi has no power and no power, and there is no reason to use it to extort money, and Chen Thirty heard that the robber is an attendant next to a great man, which means that he will not rob people for money. After thinking about all kinds of reasons, I felt that it was unlikely, and there was only one left...... Is it for the sake of robbery?
After thinking about it, I rejected this speculation again, since he is the attendant of a big man, he naturally has to take into account the reputation of his master, how dare he do something so blatantly to touch the master? Unless he really doesn't want to mess around, he plans to break the boat.
Chen Thirty couldn't figure it out, so he glanced forward, only to see that in the mottled shadows of the trees, the eyes behind the silver mask were silent and cold, as if they were going to eat people.
In the vast wasteland outside the city, a dozen tombs were lonely and silent in the moonlight, and the graves were already overgrown with weeds.
In front of the grave lay a beautiful woman, unconscious.
The cool breeze blew and made the woman frown.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a round of silver disk full moon above my head, the starry sky was low, the moon was as bright as day, and there was no trace of smoke and clouds.
Rubbing his soft back to prop up his upper body, he suddenly saw a man in a strong suit kneeling beside him.
Facing the tomb Ying, Junmei's face was full of pain.
Now the woman was completely dumbfounded, where is this? Why is she here? Didn't Tang Luo pretend to hold her hostage in exchange for freedom?
"I've changed my mind."
Just when Ye Lingyi was in shock, Tang Luo said something thoughtlessly.
Ye Lingyi looked at him in a daze.
Tang Luo also put his eyes on her, but those eyes were unreservedly conveying a variety of emotions to her, full of pain, hesitation, struggle, and resentment, flashing one by one.
Ye Lingyi didn't know why, she was stunned for a while, and then she remembered and asked, "What are you talking about?" Also, what is this place? Why did you bring me here? Didn't you say it wouldn't hurt me? ”
"yes!" The corners of Tang Luo's lips hooked up a smile, and the handsome face was full of mockery, "Do you think I'm hurting you?" I'm here to save you! ”
Where does this begin?
Ye Lingyi looked at Tang Luo blankly and shook her head: "You're crazy!" ”
With that, she got up to leave.
But he was held by a man who was on one knee.
He looked up at her, the stars and the moon were clearly reflected in his eyes, he looked so beautiful, but the look in his eyes became sad little by little: "Do you know who is lying here?" ”
Ye Lingyi looked at the surrounding dozen graves, large and small, frowned, and replied very bluntly: "Dead man!" ”
"Dead man......" Tang Luo repeated her words, lowering his head and laughing, his laughter full of resentment.
Looking up again, his expression was full of viciousness, and he said fiercely: "It's all the people I killed with my own hands!" ”
Ye Lingyi looked at Tang Luo, who was like a madman, frowned and shook his hand, but he failed to extricate himself from his hands.
"Everyone only said that the blue wolf was a killing machine cultivated by Empress Liang, killing people like hemp, but they didn't know what a pathetic person was standing behind the killing machine!" His voice suddenly calmed down a lot, and his powerless appearance seemed to be narrating the old past: "Over the years, Empress Liang has really asked me to kill a lot of people, in order to achieve her various goals, I began to do whatever it takes, whether the other party is an old man, a woman or even a child waiting to be fed, as long as she asks me to kill, I will kill!" Because I don't know what reason I have to continue to live other than killing for her! Only killing...... Only killing can prove that I am really alive, when I look at those who were killed by me staring fiercely before they die, pinching my neck and cursing me for not dying well, I feel that they are right, yes, I should have died a long time ago, if I died in that fire with the Tang family, now I don't have to survive, every day like a dog wagging his tail and begging for mercy, in order to exchange for a little bit of pitiful value in Lianghou, his hands are covered with blood and karma! ”
Tang lost her mind slightly, her expression was no longer as serious and rejecting as she had seen in the past, but like a child who had done something wrong, tormented by self-blame and guilt.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Ye Lingyi sensed that something was wrong, and squatted down to look at the man.
The eyes that lost focus gradually refocused, looking at her, he suddenly smiled: "I really envy you, obviously you are also dying in a ghost place like Cangzhi Mountain, but you are more optimistic and comfortable than the rest of us, you must not know that I think you are very kind from the first sight of you, as if I knew you in the past, somewhere in my heart I think you are like another me, not a walking corpse like me now." ”
"Tang Luo?"
Once a person who has never talked much opens the conversation box and starts to talk endlessly, it really gives people an extremely bad premonition.
"I'm fine, I'm just tired." The smile on the man's face was full of exhaustion, looking at the sky, and said slowly: "I don't want to go down this road anymore, I don't want to kill people anymore." ”
"What the hell are you talking about?"
The more confused she became.
Tang Luo didn't look at her again, and said lightly: "You go!" Get out of here! I think you'll be better off than I am! So I brought you out, hoping that you can escape from that hell, go far away, never come back, never return to the bloody storm! Go to live an ordinary life, and live an ordinary life. ”
Looking at him when he mentions ordinary life, the longing and despair in his eyes are very deep.
The sense of foreboding in Ye Lingyi's heart became stronger and stronger.
"I hope that when I die, you will bury me with them, and I will make amends to them when I go to the ground." In the end, Tang Luo smiled gently at her, suddenly let go of her hand, pushed her away, and quickly took out a sharp weapon from his arms.
The moonlight was bright, and the light passed in front of her eyes.
Ye Lingyi woke up suddenly, and the secret path was not good.
Thankfully, she was quick to react, and she raised her hand to shoot down the short knife he had dropped at her.
Angrily pushed the man to the ground and shouted, "Are you really crazy or drunk?" Somehow brought me here just to see you kill yourself? What kind of nerves do you have? ”
Tang was slightly stunned, and let out a foolish chuckle for a moment, as if the pain and sin that had been suppressed for many years were now only left as an outlet for catharsis.
As Empress Liang explained, if the matter is revealed, he can only die.
In fact, he could have assassinated Empress Liang again, and with his kung fu, it would not be difficult to succeed.
It's just that compared to the order given to him by Empress Liang, Tang Luo actually needs an opportunity to free himself.
On the one hand, he was forced to end his meaningless and sinful miserable life, and on the other hand, he felt that he could save her from hell with a bad life, which seemed to be a very profitable deal.
So he kidnapped her in order to take her away from the place where people eat people and don't spit out bones, and away from the powerful people who trampled on their bodies.
Deep down, he regarded her as another self, so exchanging his death for her life was like seeing the hope of rebirth in the dark, although this was a very crazy thought, but he didn't feel any pity for doing so, and the moment he raised the knife, he didn't have any real sense of death, but felt that the heart that was liberated was unusually relaxed.
