Part 2: The Sword Drifts (30) Choice
Ning Yuan looked at Ling Yu lying on the bed, his face was ashamed, and he whispered to Bai Qi: "Can you go out and find a place?" ”
Bai Qi thought for a moment and nodded slightly. After explaining a few words to Chunyun and asking her to take care of Ling Yu, Bai Qi followed Ning Yuan out. The two found a restaurant and called Xiao Er to order wine and food.
The two of them just sat there, neither of them speaking. Bai Qi waited for Ning Yuan to say first, but Ning Yuan was thinking about what to say. When the wine came up, Ning Yuan didn't speak first, and drank a few bowls of wine by himself. Bai Qi didn't say anything, just sat on the side and looked at Ning Yuan coldly.
"There are things I think you can guess even if I don't say them. I joined forces with Lingyu, even if I couldn't win Duanmu Ming, it wouldn't be so easy to lose. Ning Yuan suddenly looked up at Bai Qi and said, the sadness on his face became thicker and thicker.
Bai Qi looked at Ning Yuan and continued to be silent, just waiting for him to continue.
"All I can say is that there are things I can't tell you the truth. But there is one thing I have to say to you, Duanmu Ming is the grandson of the current Hun King, you really shouldn't let him go in the ring today, this person has a brutal personality, and if you hurt him, you will be in big trouble in the future. Ning Yuan looked anxious.
"Finished? Then let me tell you, I have enough trouble in Bai Qi, and I am not afraid of a little more now, I just want to remind you that the Huns are ambitious, you should be careful in the future, don't fall into a reputation for eternity. ”
Ning Yuan heard Bai Qi's words, picked up the wine jar and poured a big sip, and shouted without wiping it after drinking: "What can I do?" Who called me Zhang Churen? Who called me a disciple of the Ning family? ”
Bai Qi snorted coldly when he heard this, took out a piece of broken silver and threw it on the stage and said, "Little Er, settle the bill." ”
Stepping out of the tavern, Bai Qi strolled helplessly on the evening street, watching the pedestrians on the street coming and going in a hurry, what they were most concerned about might be how many meals a day could be safely obtained, right? Now that the Central Plains is torn apart, how long can this short-lived Gou'an last?
Bai Qi suddenly remembered what a politician had said in his previous life, "There are only eternal interests between countries, but there is no friendship." "Interests are an important factor in determining relations between countries at all times. Today, Ning Yuan can betray his brother who has just formed a righteous relationship for the benefit of Zhang Chu, precisely because the interests of the country are at work.
It seems that the Huns and Zhang Chu have come together, and this short-lived peace may be about to disappear. Faced with such a complicated situation, Bai Qi couldn't help but ask himself, what should he do? What can you do? God gave him a chance to be reborn, and played a huge joke on himself, the moment he wanted to live was so far away from him. Bai Qi suddenly found that his current situation was like the catkins flying in the sky, gone with the wind, and he was dazed and nowhere to be found.
"You've been following me since you came out of the tavern? How long are you going to follow? Bai Qi stopped and turned back slowly.
"I originally came to thank you for the last time, but I never had a chance to thank you for the last time. Seeing you coming out of the tavern today, I was not in a good mood, and I wanted to come up and talk to you, but I was afraid that you would be unhappy, so I came along. "Following Bai Qi is Nalan, the Tatar girl. Seeing Bai Qi turn around, Nalan generously explained his intentions.
Nalan in front of her didn't wear a veil anymore, and the sunset shone on her smiling face, and her little face was reddened. Bai Qi finally saw the smiling face that made him throb, a smiling face that looked innocent. On this smiling face, Bai Qi didn't see pretentiousness and hypocrisy.
Nalan is very beautiful, Bai Qi has to admit it, but unfortunately the current Bai Qi seems to have no intention of being a beautiful woman. Bai Qi owes too much to other women emotionally and morally, and Bai Qi, who owes a lot, doesn't even dare to think about whether there should be something between himself and Nalan.
"Is that all? I should go back if there is nothing else, and you should not follow me anymore, it is dark, and Qizhou has not been peaceful these days. Bai Qi tried his best to make his tone indifferent, but unfortunately it looked a bit of a failure, in the face of an innocent girl like Nalan, it was difficult for Bai Qi to harden his heart.
"My name is Nalan! Your name is Bai Qi, right? Nalan didn't answer Bai Qi's question directly, but smiled brighter, as if she wanted to use her smile to infect Bai Qi's emotions.
"It's okay, I'm leaving!" After Bai Qi finished speaking, he turned around and walked away without looking back.
"The girl on the prairie loves heroes the most! I'll remember you! White Seven! Nalan looked at Bai Qi's lonely back in the sunset, and suddenly shouted loudly. Bai Qi paused for a moment before continuing to move forward.
"If you have time, you must come to the grassland!" Nalan shouted loudly again, and this time Bai Qi did not pause, but walked faster. Nalan watched Bai Qi's back disappear around the corner of the street, and then he took out a gauze towel from his arms, covered his face again, and muttered to himself: "Mom! He saw me, but he didn't know why I let him see my face. I'm going back to the prairie tomorrow, can I see him again? ”
No one knows what the young girl is saying to herself? Pedestrians only saw a masked girl with a beautiful figure, standing alone on the street, staring at the street in front of her for a long time, attracting the gaze of countless passers-by.
Bai Qi walked forward quickly, as if he was going to get rid of something, and soon arrived in front of the Yuxiang Building. A familiar figure flashed through Bai Qi's eyes, and after a closer look, an acquaintance was looking inside outside the Yuxiang Building. Bai Qi wondered in his heart: "What is she doing here?" ”
"What are you looking at? It's not Ning Zhiyuan inside! Bai Qi stood coldly behind Rong Su and suddenly spoke. Rong Su was obviously frightened by Bai Qi, turned around quickly, and pulled out the sword with his hand.
Rong Su held a sword in one hand and stroked his chest with the other, panting and looking at Bai Qi.
The two looked at each other for a while, and then Rong Su, who had come to his senses, spoke: "He... Is he okay? ”
"He? Which he? Bai Qi was a little confused and asked rhetorically, isn't Ning Yuan, whom Rong Su likes, good? Although Rong Su didn't know it, Ning Zhiyuan's real name was Ning Yuan.
"I'm asking the big man." It turned out that Rong Su was asking Ling Yu, and Bai Qi couldn't help laughing.
"Want to know what he's like? Then follow me in. After Bai Qi finished speaking, he took a few steps to Yuxianglou, Rong Su was a girl after all, and she stood there and hesitated for a long time without deciding.
"What are you doing standing there stupidly? Come in! Bai Qi poked his head out of it and shouted again, and Rong Su hurriedly followed.
Seeing that Bai Qi brought a woman back, Chunyun's face was obviously stunned, but fortunately, Bai Qi quickly pointed to Lingyu on the bed and said to Rong Su: "He's there, if you want to see yourself, I don't think he can die." ”
Hearing Bai Qi say this, a smile suddenly bloomed on Chunyun's face, and he stepped forward and said to Rong Su: "His body is strong, it's not a big deal." ”
Rong Su walked to the bed, and saw that Ling Yu's face was fine and his breathing was normal, so he turned back to Bai Qi with confidence and said, "Please tell him that it was me who was wrong in the ring that day, and I'm sorry for him." I'm going first, and I'll come to see him tomorrow. ”
Bai Qi smiled when he heard this: "It's better for you to tell him this in person." ”
Rong Su glanced at Bai Qi a few times, and suddenly asked, "Are you Bai Qi?" The seventh child of the Bai family? Bai Qi smiled bitterly when he heard this, knowing that he was so famous in the ring, there were not a few people in Qizhou City, and his whereabouts were exposed. Fortunately, this is still within the territory of Later Wei, and Daqi can't do anything to him.
"It's me? I am the white seven you said. ”
Rong Su said with a hint of apology on his face when he heard this: "Bai Qi, I'm sorry." After speaking, Rong Su hurriedly walked out of the room. Bai Qi was confused when he heard this, where is this? What did Rong Su do when he apologized to himself?
It was almost dark, and there was no moon this night. Bai Qi sat alone at the window, his head blank.
The autumn night was as cold as water, looking at Bai Qi sitting there, Chunyun suddenly felt that Bai Qi was so far away from him, and he couldn't touch him from afar. A breeze sent a cool autumn, and Chunyun couldn't help but shiver.
"Seventh brother, it's not early, it's time to rest." Chunyun felt that he had a lot of things to say to Bai Qi, but he could only say this to his lips.
Bai Qi turned his head to Chunyun and smiled apologetically: "I'm fine, you're tired for a day, go and rest." ”
Chunyun really wanted to tell Bai Qi that he didn't feel tired, compared to the previous days of welcoming guests and laughing every night, being with Bai Qi was like being in heaven. It's a pity that Chunyun didn't dare to say these words, and he didn't have the courage to say them, for fear that if he said this, the fate between him and Bai Qi might be broken.
The night was already very deep, and Bai Qi was still sitting there. The world is about to be chaotic, where should I go? In the end, as he originally hoped, he lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, attached to the mountains and rivers, and the obscure old mountains and forests. Or do you obey the heavens and take advantage of the arrival of this troubled world to create a great cause?
The night passed like this, and when the sun illuminated the world again, Chunyun could no longer see Bai Qi. There was a letter left by Bai Qi on the table, along with Chunyun's deed of sale in Yuxiang Building, and Bai Qi left.
Leaving some silver tickets, as well as explaining that Chunyun helped take care of Lingyu's letter, Bai Qi left like this. Bai Qi's departure took away all Chunyun's thoughts, and Bai Qi's departure also marked the birth of a new Bai Qi.
On the day Bai Qi left Yuxiang Tower, the sun was very good, and there was not a trace of clouds in the sky.
