Chapter 84

At the mention of Mei Ru, Yunkong's hand holding the stick froze slightly, and then lowered his eyes and continued to sweep the weeds in front of him.

What a speechless!

This monk Yunkong looks harmless on the outside, but he is both good and evil in action.

Obviously, he reminded himself to be careful of his sibling "Mei Ru", but he had the audacity to pick up the dead Mei Ru under the emperor's nose; Now it seems that he wants to save himself, but at the critical moment, he uses himself as a shield, although he explained, but who knows the real reason!

She suddenly remembered Nangong Nuo's words, saying that Mei Ru was not dead, and letting her go was just the emperor's plan. Think about it, in the palace where the master is like a forest, let alone people, even a bird may not be able to fly over, with your three heads and six arms, and with a person, it is a god to be able to escape!

Thinking of this, her heart moved, "My sister, she's still alive, right?" ”

As if he hadn't heard, Yunkong climbed a steep slope, stretched out his hand to pull Meishuang up, and then looked at the situation below the mountain with the help of the umbrella-like tree on the slope, and then said, "Tired, right?" Take a break"

Meishuang stood under the tree and looked around.

The sun is setting in the west, and the red sunset is approaching the top of the mountain. The scenery below the mountain is unobstructed, and smoke begins to rise from the scattered villages in the distance.

As soon as she saw the smoke curling, Mei Shuang suddenly felt that she was hungry again, and the few fish she ate at noon had already been consumed with the climbing.

Turning his head, he saw Yunkong take out a wrapped oilcloth from his arms and hand it to her.

Meishuang opened it and saw that it was actually a fish roasted at noon, and said that this Yunkong was quite careful, and he was not polite at the moment, so he took it and was about to eat, only to see Yunkong waving his hand again.

"What's wrong?" Meishuang said strangely.

"You take it first, and then bake it after you go up the mountain, and if you eat something cold, you will easily get sick."

"So what are you going to do now?" Mei Shuangxin said, isn't this deliberately greedy for me?

Yunkong smiled slightly, "It's just to sue you, that's all you can eat tonight."

Mei Shuang looked at the three fish in her hand, half the size of a palm, and was speechless, "You mean that tonight's dinner is one person and a half fish?" ”

"No, it's all for you."

"That's not enough, besides, are you iron? I haven't eaten anything since the morning. Alas, how did this day come to be? It's almost like a pause and a pause. ”

Speaking of this, Mei Shuang couldn't help but think of the diligence of the adolescent Lin Yuan in the Lin Mansion, and thought that the various pastries were very comfortable in her stomach. Now, Yunkong has walked towards the mountain, and Meishuang does not dare to delay too much, and follows closely. This mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is almost evening, and I don't know if there are big insects and beasts.

After walking for a while, I could finally see a ruined temple in the mountains.

The sky was already a little dark, Mei Shuang stood in front of the crumbling ruined temple, and said in her heart, is this the rhythm of going up the mountain and falling into the grass?

In the last rays of the sunset, Meishuang saw the ruined temple the size of a house.

It is located on a huge rock jutting out of the wooded mountain recess, surrounded by dense forests, and the stone courtyard wall is only one person high, and the gate is dilapidated, and the two decaying door panels can barely be closed.

Mei Shuang looked at the dilapidated temple that could collapse as soon as the wind came, and then looked at the cold grilled fish in her hand, and her heart was plucking out the cold. Is this where you can live in the future?

Thinking of the unlucky daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion since she became a woman, she didn't have a day of peace. Now it's good, do everything possible to leave the palace and fall to this step.

Yunkong, Yunkong, since I met you, I have been unlucky!

However, to be able to find such a place in such a labyrinthine mountain road, I must have been here before.

"This is your place?" Meishuang asked.

Yunkong stepped forward and pushed open the rotten gate, and said lightly, "First be here for a few days before going down the mountain." ”

Meishuang asked as she followed, "Won't your people over there find here?" ”

Yunkong replied crisply, "No." ”

"Yunkong, can you tell me the truth and bring me here, what kind of heart do you have?"

As they spoke, the two of them entered the house.

Looking at the dilapidated plum cream outside, I didn't expect it to be much better inside, but I didn't expect that although it was simple after coming in, it seemed to have been cleaned up. There are three rooms in total, the main room is a pot stove, and the left and right sides are a bedroom. Moreover, there is a futon in the bedroom.

Meishuang was a little surprised, "Has anyone ever lived in such a place?" ”

As he spoke, the courtyard door was pushed open, and a young shoulder came in with a bundle of firewood on his back.

Mei Shuang looked at the person carefully, and her eyes widened in amazement, "Vanilla? Are you here? ”

Isn't it? Isn't this the girl who cried heartbreakingly when there was a fire at home, and was always worried about Meishuang? However, the small fishing village was so far away that she and Yunkong arrived here quickly.

But she seems to have arrived early, dare she fly here?

Vanilla put down the firewood on her shoulder and smiled at the stunned Meishuang, "As soon as you walk on your front feet, I'll rush here."

Seriously, if she hadn't seen the vanilla with her own eyes, Mei Shuang wouldn't have believed that this little girl who looked like she was only a teenager could get here in such a short time, and she was familiar with the way to the mountain.

So, when I looked at this little girl again, I immediately felt like a master in the world.

When she was stunned, Vanilla put the firewood in front of the pot, went out of the yard again, groped around a well for a while, and after a while took out a bunch of sweet potatoes and turnips, then washed them with the well water, and quickly took them back and put them in the pot.

Meishuang was dumbfounded, and was about to ask Vanilla if she wanted to help, when she heard Vanilla say, "Childe, you can talk to this young lady, I'll cook first." ”

Meishuang was jaw-dropping again. What a good girl, not only is she the leader in housework, but she is so intimate.

However, Meishuang was not in the mood to talk to Yunkong, Vanilla was cooking, she ran to the courtyard gate alone and sat on a big rock in a daze against the dense jungle.

The night gradually covered the earth, the moon slowly climbed into the sky, and the whole mountain was silent, a little frighteningly quiet.

Yunkong let Meishuang sit outside, and didn't come out of the house until it was almost time to eat, standing behind Meishuang and calling softly.

When Meishuang heard her call for dinner, she didn't bother to pay attention to him, and she made herself to this ghost place as if she was a guest.

After calling a few words, seeing that Meishuang didn't agree, Yunkong knew what Meishuang was thinking, but he couldn't figure it out and was unhappy.

So, he walked over and sat down next to Meishuang.

"For now, you are safest only if you follow me and stay here." Yunkong said lightly.

Why does this sound so unpleasant? Mei Shuang held her cheeks, glanced at Yunkong, and said disapprerovingly, "Tell me, old man, if I hadn't met you under the bridge at that time, would I have just waited for dawn to get on the boat and have gone to Jiangnan at this moment?" Good guy, this since I met you, this road is as dangerous as it is, and now I can only stay in this halfway up the mountain, and I have become a fugitive with you, do you say it is safe? ”

Yunkong pursed the corners of his lips and pondered for a moment, "Do you think it was a chance to meet you by the river?" ”

Mei Shuang's heart moved, "So, you've been eyeing me for a long time?" ”

"Naturally, someone sued me, but it was a little late to sue me, so when I arrived at the river, I saw you fall into the river"

"Someone sued you?" Meishuang said, "So, your people have been eyeing me for a long time?" ”

"It's not them," Yunkong shook his head, "Although they have been looking for you, if they had known your whereabouts for a long time, I'm afraid you wouldn't be sitting here." ”

Yunkong's words made Meishuang's back burst into a chill, "Who is it, don't sell it, you don't want to say it, Yunkong, this can directly affect your future cooperation."

"Does that man in black in the grove know? The one behind you and me was the one who told me about your whereabouts in advance, and then pretended to fight with us before the government arrived, and planned to pretend to lose the battle and let us go, so that he could explain to the government, but he didn't expect that those people had a very good sense of smell and could actually find there."

"Those people? Is it one of yours? Meishuang was very surprised, how many groups of people were mixed in here.

"That's right!" Yun Kong said, "In addition to them, there are at least two groups of people inside. One group is sent by the government, which is open, and the other group is in the dark, it seems that they don't want the government to find you, but they don't seem to want to hurt you."

Mei Shuang pondered quietly for a while, and suddenly asked a sharp question, "Then why did you sue you?" Don't you hurt me if you know? ”

Yunkong raised his thick eyebrows, this woman is really careful.

"Since they are so sure that you will not hurt me and let you take me away, it means that either they don't know you well enough to know that you are Queen Meiru's person, or they sent me to the wolf's den in a daze; Either you know your details at all, that's why you are so relieved. Of course I'm guessing the last one."

In the end, Meishuang suddenly thought, "Yunkong, you can't be playing Infernal Affairs, right?" ”

"What?" Yunkong didn't understand.

"Okay, Yunkong, I won't ask anything else. If you are from Queen Meiru's side, your current behavior is tantamount to betraying her, including the previous time you reminded me to be careful in the Jokhang Temple, I only ask you, Meiru, does she know? Also, did you let me be here just to avoid Mei Ru's pursuit? ”

Yunkong didn't make a sound for a long time, so he simply got up and looked into the distance.

The moonlight shines through the clouds through the dense forest, casting a dappled spot on the open space in front of the courtyard.

Meishuang also got up and stood not far from Yunkong, quietly waiting for Yunkong's answer.
