Chapter 20: The Man in the Shadows

didn't have time to reach out to help, Guan Jingtian fell to the ground, unconscious, Ruoxin was stunned and amused, and hurriedly squatted down to check his situation.

Mo Mo, who was waiting in the side hall, vaguely heard the exclamation of his young master, and then the dull sound in the lobby, and hurried to the outside of the hall in a hurry. Looking inside, seeing Guan Jingtian fainting on the ground, Mo Mo ran into the lobby with his skirt up, and shouted anxiously: "What's wrong with the young master?" ”

Bai Ruoyin glanced at her lightly, and then his gaze moved to Ruoxin's face again, and the expression in his eyes was thoughtful.

And Ruoxin only let go of Guan Dashao's wrist after making sure that Guan Dashao was only fainting because of a temporary disobedience in qi and blood, and there were no other symptoms, and turned her head to greet Mo Mo with a smile, "Mo Mo girl, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

At first glance, seeing Ruoxin and Bai Ruoyin appearing together, the indifferent reaction was the same as Guan Da Shao's reaction at the beginning, and he took a breath, and the whole person suddenly fell to the ground. But fortunately, Ruoxin told her earlier than Wanchun County that after being stunned for a long time about the situation between herself and Bai Ruoyin, Momo slowly returned to normal.

"Come, help me help your young master up." Holding one of Guan Dashao's arms, Ruoxin summoned Mo Mo to help him from the cold ground to the chair and sit down, seeing that even if Guan Dashao fainted, his face still had a ghost-like frightened and somewhat confused expression, Ruoxin thought of his reaction just now, it was really funny, and stretched out her fingers and flicked Guan Dashao's forehead.

"Ruoxin girl, why are you in the capital?" His eyes looked at Bai Ruoyin and Ruoxin's faces several times, Mo Mo temporarily suppressed the shock in his heart, turned his head to look at Ruoxin and asked.

After a flick, the tender skin on the eldest young master's forehead became red, Ruoxin smiled and withdrew her hand, and replied: "Wanchun County said goodbye to you that day, and I came to the capital, and I came here today to see the old man, but I didn't expect to meet you." ”

Mo Mo nodded, glanced at Bai Ruoyin, caught a glimpse of the cold expression on her face, and a sense of awe rose unconsciously in her heart. In Wanchun County, she once went to Baijia Village with the young master to find Bai Ruoyin, and the moment she saw it, she almost thought that person was Ruoxin. It's just that the two people with the same face give people a very different feeling, and only the stubborn young master admits death and insists that Bai Ruoyin is Ruoxin.

Mo Mo lowered his gaze and said, "Today, the white girl invited the young master over. ”

When Ruoxin heard this, she turned her head to look at Bai Ruoyin. Bai Ruoyin just glanced at her with an indifferent expression, then turned around and walked towards the back of the lobby, and said at the same time, "You come with me." ”

Mo Mo stayed in the lobby to take care of Guan Jingtian, and Ruoxin walked to the back of the hall with Bai Ruoyin.

Out of the lobby, I saw a spacious garden, but there was still a piece of green bamboo planted in the garden, which looked a little colder.

After walking for about a cup of tea, the two turned a corner from the bluestone road, Ruoxin saw a small building built by the lake not far away, and guessed that it was Bai Ruoyin's current residence. Although the overall construction of the Xianwang Mansion was simple and casual, the small building seemed to have obviously taken a lot of effort, and Bai Ruo naturally did not care about the advantages and disadvantages of the living conditions because of his indifferent temperament, so thinking about it, it was probably prepared by the master.

Ruoxin smiled self-deprecatingly, Master had been looking forward to it for a hundred years, and had planned everything since she was born, and now she finally got what she wanted, allowing Bai Ruoyin to return to him. Although he lost his body, like a wandering ghost, he had to look for a way to survive everywhere, but I am afraid that if I come a thousand times, Master will still make such a choice.

Since I was a child, I followed the master and saw the master's strong feelings for Bai Ruoyin's love and hate, and now that I think about it, I love it too much, so it turns into hate. Inheriting Bai Ruoyin's memory, and also remembering Bai Ruoyin's relentless injury to Zhongyang a hundred years ago, she didn't know what Bai Ruoyin, whose soul was awakened, was thinking in her heart now, even she couldn't avoid sensing a touch of melancholy, although it was just a memory that clearly remained in her mind but did not belong to her.

......

Huang Fuxian sat in the study, with an open window in front of him, and through the green bamboo forest, he just saw Bai Ruoyin and Ruoxin walking towards Xiaozhu. The two figures, one red and one white, look a little weird because of their same appearance.

Leaning lazily on the quaint carved back chair, Huang Fuxian's expression did not change, his eyes stayed on the two of them casually, and he smiled meaningfully.

Holding the tea cup in one hand, holding the lid in the other hand and gently removing the tea leaves on the tea water, the tea has been cold, more bitter than when it was just brewed, but he loves such a way of drinking, the more bitter the more astringent, he drank in the mouth, and felt that the aftertaste was endless. Bringing the teacup to his lips, Huang Fuxian took a sip, heard Hui Chun enter the door, and whispered behind him, "Master." ”

"Hmm." Slowly swallowing the slightly bitter tea, Huang Fuxian responded lightly.

Hui Chun bowed his head and said, "Master, yesterday, the elders of the Bu clan collectively asked the priest to ask her to take back the soul and three spirits on the young lady now. ”

"Oh?" Huang Fuxian's originally lazy demeanor had a hint of interest, "These old things have never changed their temperament. ”

Since returning to Beijing, Bai Ruoyin has been re-appointed as the protector priest, and the Bu clan has also regained the identity of the protector clan a hundred years ago. He knew the thoughts of those elders, although Bai Ruo was awakened by the memory of the high priest a hundred years ago, but now that he has lost that soul and three spirits, his ability is far less than it was at the beginning. As long as Ruoxin's soul is recovered, then Bai Ruoyin can reinvigorate the Bu clan, rebuild the glory and status of the Bu clan in Dongheng a hundred years ago, and also eliminate the hostility of the current royal family towards them, so that he can get out of the still dangerous situation.

The corners of Huangfu Xian's lips lifted slightly, and he smiled slightly with sarcasm, and then asked, "How does Ayin answer?" ”

The priest did not say anything, but said that she had a decision in her heart.

Rejuvenation paused, and then continued: "Master, the third prince of Ke Lan has already set off to return to China in the morning. ”

Huang Fuxian pondered for a moment, nodded lightly, and finally glanced at the two people who walked into Bai Ruoyin's bedroom, and lazily looked away, "Continue to send people to follow, and report back if there is any situation." ”

"Yes."
