Chapter 48 Xunyang River mourns

In the early morning, a scream suddenly came from the quiet suburbs of Xunyang City, startling the crows in the woods to scatter and fly away, and a whirlwind blew, mixed with some dead leaves and weeds, hitting people's cheeks, as if rejecting the arrival of these uninvited guests. Yun Meng slowly opened his eyes, but what he saw was Yu Weng lying on the ground, Yu Weng at this time the fingers of both hands were deeply clasped in the soil under him, his mouth was spitting hot air, one by one, but he didn't know what to say, only the handle of a knife was exposed on his back, and the blood had already stained the cotton robe red.

"Who is it? Who hurt Yu Weng? These words immediately popped out of Yun Meng's mind. Yun Meng immediately looked behind Yu Weng again, there was indeed a person standing there, a person who couldn't explain clearly, a person who regarded him as his own brother, but he had betrayed him many times, Qing Yao.

Qing Yao stood on the ground, his mouth slightly open, his eyes revealing horror, and his hands trembled from time to time. Obviously, it was Qing Yao who stabbed Yu Weng from behind just now and saved Yun Meng. "But why did Qing Yao save himself? Isn't he missing, why is he in Jiangzhou again? At this time, Yun Meng had doubts in his heart, but there was more anger, the person in front of him, who regarded him as a sibling, had always felt that he was so simple, kind, and had a childlike heart, but in fact he was the deepest hidden, staring at his eyes all the time, he took advantage of his trust in him, and was deceiving and lying from beginning to end. Looking back now, in fact, Brother Yin noticed it early on and hinted at himself many times, but he was so stupid that he didn't pay attention to it at all. Now this person is standing in front of him, but he has just saved himself, why is this? Yun Meng's mind was extremely disturbed, and he thought that he would definitely die, so he accepted everything calmly. Who knew that things took a turn for the worse, and he was actually rescued by Qing Yao, who had killed him, contradictions, and his mind was full of contradictions.

Qing Yao seemed to have recovered from the fright, walked around to Weng, walked quickly to Yun Meng, and said in a low voice: "Childe, please go with Qing Yao quickly." ”

Yun Meng took a few steps back, but his eyes stared coldly at Qing Yao.

Qing Yao's eyes didn't dare to look at Yun Meng, he lowered his head and took two steps forward, and said again: "Childe should not stay here for a long time, if there is anything we have to say, okay?" ”

Yun Meng took a few steps back, but at this time, there was a little more complexity in his eyes, Yun Meng thought to himself, "What are you going to do, do you still have to lie to me, what is your purpose?" ”。

Qing Yao saw that Yun Meng didn't pay attention to him at all, so he simply "pounced" and knelt on his knees, his eyes were full of tears, and said: "Qing Yao is sorry for Childe, Qing Yao is guilty, and Qing Yao also knows that Childe hates me now, and he will not believe me anymore." However, this time I really came to rescue Childe, and I asked Childe to believe me one last time. When he arrives in a safe place, Qing Yao will definitely give his son an explanation. After speaking, he kowtowed to Yun Meng three times in a row.

Yun Meng couldn't control himself anymore, and went up and waved his hand to hit Qing Yao, but at this moment, he heard Qing Yao shout "Childe be careful", at the same time, Qing Yao flew up and suddenly pressed Yun Meng under him, Yun Meng was caught off guard, and also fell hard, fortunately, there was only some dirt on the ground, and there were no stones, so it was just a little painful. Yun Meng was pressed under Qing Yao and couldn't move, so he stared at Qing Yao fiercely with his eyes, Qing Yao frowned slightly, and then got up first, and wanted to help Yun Meng, but Yun Meng pushed his hand away and stood up by himself. Qing Yao smiled awkwardly, pointed at Yu Weng with his finger and said: "This old thief, just took advantage of my unpreparedness to hurt Gongzi with a secret weapon, but fortunately Qing Yao found out, and he knocked down Gongzi in a hurry, Gongzi is not strange." After speaking, he walked in front of Yu Weng and kicked him a few times, confirming that he was indeed out of breath, and raised Yu Weng's arm, and indeed found that he had a sleeve quiver tied to his arm, presumably the hidden weapon just now was also the last thing he sent before he died.

Yun Meng also had a trace of regret, it seemed that Qing Yao really came to save himself. Suddenly remembered that Yu Weng mentioned that Yin Yuan was in trouble just now, so he didn't delay any longer, and staggered towards the riverside with Qing Yao, Qing Yao wanted to reach out to help Yun Meng a few times, but Yun Meng pushed him away.

When the two arrived at the river, the sky was already bright at this time, but it was still gray and foggy, and there was a small canopy docked on the riverside.

The boat traveled eastward for about an hour, because it was down the river, and the current and wind helped, and it was about to leave the Xunyang River. Since getting on the boat, Yun Meng has been sitting on the bow of the boat looking at the river, without saying a word. Qing Yao shook the oar for a while, and when he saw that there were no pursuers behind him, he let out a long breath, helped the side of the boat to the bow of the boat, squatted beside Yun Meng, and said softly: "Childe, don't worry, we have already left the Jiangzhou territory, and the pursuers should not catch up." ”

Yun Meng turned to look at Qing Yao and found that Qing Yao's face was a little pale, but he didn't care. Qing Yao also looked at Yun Meng, then lowered his head again, and said: "Childe, Qing Yao is ashamed, but Qing Yao also has hardships, and he has also been deceived, please believe me." It is true that Qingyao was ordered by the head of the family, and since the son was practicing in Yilu in Zhongnan Mountain, he began to spy on the son, and every time the son's actions were reported to Yu Weng, he was transferred to the head of the family because of Weng. If the head of the family has any instructions, then Weng will convey it to Qing Yao. Qingyao was born in a poor family, lost his father since he was a child, and when he was seven years old, he was separated from his mother in the escape, and almost starved to death, but fortunately he was rescued by the head of the family and was taken in by the head of the family. The head of the family is kind to Qingyao and takes care of me very much. The instructions of the head of the family, how dare Qing Yao disobey, at first Qing Yao was like the family wanted me to do other errands, what did the son do, what books he read, when to get up, when to rest, etc., many things were not careful, and he was young at the time, no matter how big or small, he reported it truthfully. But as day after day, year after year, Qingyao grew up with his son, got along with him for a long time, and gradually developed feelings. Childe treats Qingyao as a younger brother, there has never been a difference between master and servant, and he has never avoided Qingyao when he does anything, Qingyao can not know. In particular, after I accompanied my son to Jiankang, everything I experienced made Qing Yao feel that Childe did the right thing and did it fairly, but he began to think that the head of the family had some problems in handling some things. But despite this, Qingyao still didn't dare to disobey the head of the family, and continued to report his son's every move to him, because the head of the family told me that he knew the whereabouts of Qingyao's mother, and as long as I obediently continued to do errands for him, he would let me go to reunite with my mother. And ......" Qing Yao stopped, as if he was tired, closed his eyes and rested for a while, then opened his eyes again and continued: "There are ......" Only this time Qing Yao's voice was softer and the speed of speech was slower, Yun Meng looked at Qing Yao, and his eyes seemed to ask Qing Yao what was wrong. Qing Yao coughed twice, shook his head, and continued: "There are other things, Childe should almost already know. Qing Yao sometimes thinks about it, he actually did so many bad things, and actually framed his son, so he feels that he is not a human being, and Qing Yao is not enough to atone for his sins even if he dies. Qingyao stopped again, took a long breath, and said: "This time I went to Shouchun Qingyao was originally a hundred unwilling, but Yu Weng found me and said that the head of the family had agreed, as long as he finished this last thing, he would let me go, so Qingyao framed Gongzi and Mr. Yin with a clear conscience." Yun Meng never made any reaction, just sat in place and listened to Qing Yao tell the past, and then simply turned his face to the river, because the more Yun Meng listened, the more depressed he felt, coupled with the words that Xie Ping, Xu Hong, and Yu Weng said to himself, Yun Meng really wanted to yell at the river a few times. Suddenly, Yun Meng found that Qing Yao was no longer talking, so he turned his head to see what was wrong, but found that Qing Yao had fallen on the deck for some reason. Yun Meng hurriedly squatted down and hugged Qing Yao, and found that Qing Yao's face was like white paper, his breathing was weak, his eyes were slightly closed, and then he touched a large piece of Qing Yao's back that was wet, and then pulled out his hand and saw that his hands were full of blood, thinking that just now, it must have been Qing Yao who blocked the hidden weapon shot by Yu Weng in order to save himself. Yun Meng was suddenly anxious, he wanted to call Qing Yao but couldn't say it, he could only shout "ahhhhh By the way, there are still things in the cabin that Xu Hong asked me to hand over to you, Xu Hong, he, he is good, people, it is him, that day, he released me, and later, and then asked me to rescue, Gong, Gongzi......" Qing Yao spoke intermittently, and his eyes were almost weak. Yun Meng couldn't control his tears anymore, and they dripped down and onto Qing Yao's face......

In the end, Qing Yao also left, Yun Meng wiped his cheeks for him with river water, his face was white and bloodless, but in Yun Meng's eyes, it was so pure. Yun Meng changed into a cotton robe without blood stains on his body for Qing Yao. Then the boat was rocked to the river, abandoned the boat and landed on the shore, Ren Xiaozhou carried Qingyao's body to the east with the river, Yun Meng stood by the river and watched the boat leave, step by step The cold river water soaked his knees, Yun Meng still did not notice, his eyes were red, his face was sad, his long hair was scattered, and he was swinging in the cold wind. This may be the best destination for Qing Yao, although he grew up in deception, he has always had good wishes in his heart, although his existence is not glorious, he dares to exchange his life for his dignity as a human being.

"The water of the waves is clear, and you can wet my hair. The water of the waves is turbid, and you can wet my feet. Slowly, the boat swayed and finally disappeared into the fog, never to be seen again.
