Volume 2 Corruption Chapter 144 Indifferent to Things
Suddenly opened his eyes, first heard a harsh sound, and looked sideways, the warriors were holding the yellowed book and turning the pages and pages, and looked down at their hands, which was also a yellowed book.
"The samurai, who were almost as good as he was wounded, followed me into the library and looked through the records of a hundred years ago, looking for anything about the mountain."
··· ···
"Captain, the bookshelves here have been flipped through, and there is no record of a hundred years ago."
··· ···
"The palace people who manage it said that there are still a few records from a hundred years ago here, but I don't know where they have gone, so let's find them together."
"Yes."
A large number of memories surfaced in front of him, and the flickering candle flame on the machine next to him woke up Cai Wenxi, looked around at the stacked bookshelves around him, saw that there was no light outside the window, snapped the book in his hand and threw it aside, and stretched out his arm to pat the warrior in front of him.
"Have I been here all along? Have I been going through these books with you lately? ”
Staring at the samurai who looked back, he was surprised to see that the captain had been here, and had been flipping through the books with the samurai, and his tense body loosened, like melted ice cream, slowly curled up into a puddle.
The warrior next to him was also attracted by Cai Wenxi's words, and he didn't understand what was wrong with Cai Wenxi, so he moved his steps to this side, and looked at Cai Wenxi with his head down, looking sluggish.
"Captain, but you've been here for a long time, and you're not feeling well? The sun has also set, so it is better for the captain to go back and rest. ”
Pinching the cotton pants on her legs, recalling the touch on her hands, she clearly touched it, touched the temperature, it couldn't be an illusion, why, why?
She couldn't figure it out.
"I'm really a little unwell, so I'll stop here for today, and I'll continue tomorrow, and you can go back and rest."
Spit out a sentence lightly, her back was still hunched, and she slowly walked out of the library with her eyes down, the cold wind from the shop failed to make her react, and the warriors stared at this weak figure, packed up the books in their hands, and looked at each other, their faces wrinkled.
What happened all of a sudden.
Slowly entered the courtyard gate, and several warriors who had been approved by Cai Wenxi who had previously told Shi Nan that they were wrong were in the courtyard, and when they raised their eyes to see Cai Wenxi coming, they all moved and stepped forward, looking at their faces were blue, I don't know if they were frozen or something bad.
Fixing in front of Cai Wenxi's eyes, he just gave up his hand and spoke, and the people in front of him walked away without squinting, and he almost didn't listen to a faint sentence mixed into the cold wind.
"I have no intention of doing anything today, but I will speak to me again tomorrow."
Several warriors were stunned, followed Cai Wenxi's figure, their faces were stunned and puzzled, Cai Wenxi had never looked like this since he entered the Mountain Lord's Palace, and they were so shocked that they forgot to speak again, and watched him enter the door and enter the darkness.
The other samurai who went to read the books followed, turned their heads to the captain, and asked the captain directly what was wrong, and heard these few who were also a little puzzled to answer the captain that he was unwell, and felt even more strange, this is a person who can bring injuries out of the mission, and to what extent is this body uncomfortable to let him ignore everything.
Seeing a few samurai who went to flip through the books today, they went back to the room one after another, looked at the dark paper window in Cai Wenxi's room again, and retracted their gaze and whispered together.
"Since the captain is unwell, then let's hold the soldiers first, Jiangbei has been stupid by our poison, although Shi Nan is awake, he is alone, it is useless to say anything, let's just take turns staring at Shi Nan's side now, don't let him make a moth, you can also go to explore his tone tomorrow, maybe it is really as we guessed, it was Shi Nan who sent the lives of a team of warriors in a hurry."
Several samurai nodded in unison, their eyes resolute, and they quickly settled down, and scattered to their own business.
After Cai Wenxi returned to the room, she threw herself directly on the bed, ripped up the quilt and covered the whole person, the charcoal basin in the room had long since rested, and the temperature in the house was not much warmer than outside, but Cai Wenxi did not go to light the charcoal basin, and the candle flame was not lit, but only curled up quietly in the quilt.
She's had enough, she's really had enough.
His eyes were closed, his face was expressionless, and his breathing was gradually weakening and flat.
Perhaps, in her first dream, she should have killed herself, or everyone.
—— ——
It's nightfall.
Cai Wenxi opened her eyes on the bed in the inn, the curtains were placed, and all the moonlight that was coming through the window lattice to illuminate her was cut off, she lay flat, looking at the top of the bed in front of her in a daze, it was dark, and she couldn't see anything clearly.
"I heard that Miss Today is not feeling well, so I'll take a look... Miss has gone to sleep, so let's be tomorrow morning. ”
There was a faint sound of dialogue in her ears, Cai Wenxi didn't need to tell who it was, Quege and Zhu Xiuyun, no, now I want to call him Xiuyun, I can't help but think about Zhu Xiuyun's actions recently, I am concerned about her, and I will always take the opportunity to say hello when I stay and pack up every night, but my identity is limited, so I can only come to say hello.
There is no interest in being in a daze, sit up leisurely, chirp, I haven't drunk for some days, remember that this inn is a circular layout, the middle of the roof is an empty circle, sit on the corridor railing to drink and admire the moon, think about it is very comfortable.
Suddenly got up and strode out of the door, but he didn't meet Magpie Song at the door, so he came to buy wine by himself, went down to the first floor with a wave of his long arm, the best wine here, give her two jars, and looked at the innkeeper with a good look, turned around and took out two small jars, so that Cai Wenxi muttered that this wine was too little, and took out a silver ingot from his purse and slapped it on the stage.
"Two more altars."
Put the wine jar on the ground and prop up the pillars and sit on it, remove the lid and drink directly from the jar, coo, a lot of it flows out along the corners of the mouth, smile a little, stretch the sleeves to wipe the corners of the mouth, as for the placket, it doesn't matter.
Holding the wine jar in his arms, leaning on the pillar beside him, he raised his head to look at the stars above his head, and simply counted them, counting them for a long time, and he was dazzled.
Lowered his head, had a headache, dizziness, closed his eyes, raised his hand to press his temples, slowed down, held the wine jar and came to drink again, so that the palace people in the corridor were shocked that this Lingli county lord was originally a drinker.
A familiar figure appeared on the opposite side, Kaba's eyes widened, tonight Zhao Hexuan actually changed out of his court clothes and changed to his own clothes, and after a slight shock, he couldn't stop slandering, it was rare to take off his official uniform, and he couldn't change to something that he didn't often wear on weekdays, or that black robe, even if it was her, the clothes were also black, white and gray.
"Brother Zhao! Come, come, I invite you to drink. ”
Xu was drunk because of the wine, Cai Wenxi didn't care much about anything else, raised her arms and greeted Zhao Hexuan, so that she couldn't help but sigh when she saw it, and came with her back hand, and told everyone on the corridor to go to rest first, and only when she saw that everyone retreated before she came to talk to Cai Wenxi, there was a lot of helplessness between the words.
"Why are you in the mood for drinking today, you can drink less when you go out, lest you get drunk and make others laugh."
Zhao Hexuan leaned forward and got closer to Cai Wenxi, staring at Cai Wenxi's movements with a look in his eyes, taking advantage of the fact that he had drunk a large sip of wine and looked up, he snatched the wine jar from her hand, quickly stepped back, raised his eyes and saw Cai Wenxi turn her head and sneer, leaned back and grabbed a new jar in his hand, joking that Zhao Hexuan was stupid by her, and he didn't see the three jars of wine on the ground.
I lifted the lid and continued to drink, looking at the stars in the sky again.
Zhao Hexuan came over leisurely with the wine jar in his hand, learned that Cai Wenxi also sat on the railing, followed by looking up at the sky, with a faint smile on his face, and did not shy away from it, he drank the wine jar that Cai Wenxi had drunk, frowning slightly, it seemed that he was not very happy.
"I'm so good, I saw that there were three jars on the ground, but I grabbed them for myself to drink, I don't have as much wine as you, but I can't drink one jar."
The faces of the two of them are reflected with silver and white starlight, a little silver and white flashes under the ink blue, and the gray and white crescent moon hangs quietly in it, so it seems that it has been a long time ago to admire the moon and watch the stars, and the sporadic guests on the first floor have also returned to their rooms to rest, and their ears are becoming more and more quiet, as if the two of them are the only ones left between heaven and earth, at such a time, how can Zhao Hexuan let go, the brilliance in his eyes flashed, turned his head to Cai Wenxi's side face, and spoke softly.
"Speaking of which, I expressed my heart to you last time, and you haven't given me an answer yet, what do you mean to me?"
The tone is getting weaker and weaker, and the body is stiffer, and the expression is complicated, expecting Cai Wenxi to reply, and being afraid.
The person in front of him closed his gaze and turned his head to look, his eyes were so deep that he couldn't guess it.
"I like it, but I'm not sure, you know, we grew up together, and I don't have the intention of marrying now, if you don't have to marry me, it's better to pay attention to the girl next to me, who is more beautiful than me and more gentle and virtuous, grab a handful."
