The morning light is thin, the river surface is hazy, the painting boat is swimming slowly in the smoke, and the boat is light and snowy.

At this hour, there are very few people boating on the lake, and there is just such an aimless 'swing' in the smoke, and the men and women in the boat are all single-shirted and thin-sleeved, ignoring the frost and snow on the shore.

"Jin Yu is my subordinate, I can't 'hand' it over to you and dispose of it by your gentleman's building, I owe these few life debts and count it on my head, if you want to do it, I will never dodge." Helian Ming was cooking tea, his tone was as light as water, and he smiled elegantly and softly on his lips, "Wasn't it the same way that year?" You ran recklessly to settle accounts, and 'forced' me to 'fight' with you, but in the end, it became you who instructed me to do the trick, and then you were scolded by the master and came to me again. At that time, I thought, you are really easy to bully. ”

Although the past many years ago was warm, it couldn't make Wen Moqing feel a little moved, even if he sat face-to-face with Helian Mingyan, the look in his eyes was still cold.

"The warmth and harmony of the past and Helian Ming are gone, what's the use of memories? Now that you and I are hostile, all we should have is a contest. ”

"Yes, it's hard to get rid of it, and I can't erase what I've done, and I don't intend to erase it. You just treat me with affection, but I want to bear you when I like it, and I can't treat you sincerely. "Helian Ming poured tea for Wen Moqing, and the familiar fragrance came to his nose, which was Wen Moqing's favorite 'jade' fox snow. Su Bai took a cup of tea and sipped gently, and after half a cup of tea, Helian Ming said softly: "I know that it is no longer possible with you in this life, it is a great gift that you don't hate me, and I can't be greedy for your attachment, but there is a sentence in my heart that I don't vomit and feel unhappy, even if you are tired of me, I have to say - you are too attentive to that 'girl', no matter what the reason, it is not a good thing, after all, her identity is mysterious and too scheming, and she will not rely on you for a long time." ”

Wen Moqing finally had a slight expression: "She is not scheming, but her style of acting is different from that of ordinary 'women', and it is difficult for others to see through." ”

"But it's true that you care more about her, and you shouldn't deny that."

"If that's a concern, I don't have anything to say." Wen Moqing played with the round lid of the teacup and made a popping sound, crisp and a little harsh, "I don't know much about her so far, but I just believe that she didn't lie to me based on my feelings, and her various reactions can also show that she really doesn't know anything about Qinglian King, not that I don't doubt her identity." Although I don't care about implicating others in killing the Qinglian King, she is an exception, if I can prove that she is clean, maybe I will bring her into the Gentleman's Building. ”

Helian Ming was slightly surprised: "You want her to be a member of Junzilou?" However, the entry conditions of the gentleman's building are not so simple, right? ”

"It's naturally not easy to enter the Gentleman's Tower, but the person who can win the favor of Bi Xiao and General Night at the same time is definitely not a very person." A flash of faith flashed in her eyes, Wen Mo unconsciously 'revealed' a smile, and did not hide the slightest from Helian Ming, who was still a hostile identity, "Yan Liwu is a very special 'woman', she is smart, bold, thoughtful, and has many ideas and opinions that are amazing, but it is a pity that her eyes are limited, and she always positions herself as an ordinary mortal who wants to live a life like a crane in the clouds. ”

Hearing Wen Moqing's explanation, Helian Ming was relieved, and sighed lightly: "I didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of her, I thought you were 'bewitched' by her and moved your heart - that kind of smart 'girl' is the easiest to attract your attention, I remind you that it is also because she is different, it is inevitable to worry." ”

Wen Moqing didn't respond to Helian Mingyan's so-called worries, sat in the boat and drank a few cups of tea, her eyes always fell on the 'mysterious' and 'meng' scenery outside the painting boat, until the pot of tea was completely empty, and then she suddenly spoke: "This is the land of the Great Abyss King, I don't want to see your people running to cause trouble again." ”

"Jin Yu and they will return to China with the caravan in the middle of the month, and I still have some 'private' matters to deal with for a few more days, and I probably won't set foot in Zhongzhou for half a step after that." Pouring the residual tea in the cup into the river, Helian Ming's eyes darkened slightly, and his tone suddenly hesitated, "Moqing, you...... Can you stay with me for a few more days? I've missed too much and don't want to regret it anymore. ”

The painting boat shook slightly, and Zhou Gong turned around and waved his hand into the boat, indicating that he had landed.

The gloomy ink 'colored' clothes stroked the table top of the small table, rolling up a slight cool cold wind, and the silent and departing figure carried countless nostalgia, but he didn't look back from beginning to end, leaving only Helian Ming, whose face and temperament were like fairies, smiled silently, tasting the too cool words left by the warm ink love.

"The friendship between you and me was broken as early as that year when you said goodbye, and today's farewell will be the end, I hope that in this life, there will be no more connections."

In this life, there is nothing to do with it.

In the empty painting boat, Helian Ming looked out of the boat, Zhu 'lips' moved lightly, repeating these heart-wrenching eight words over and over again, and gradually his eyes were slightly red.

"The county lord...... Is the county lord crying? For that kind of man, it's really not worth it. Jin Yu, who entered the boat from the outside, saw Helian Ming wiping the corners of his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh faintly, waving his wide sleeves as if to erase all the traces of warmth and ink. Helian Ming smiled and shook his head lightly, which made Jin Yu even more displeased: "The county lord has missed him for five years, missed him for five years, and returned to Zhongzhou just to see him, but he ignored the county lord's infatuation, and instead went to and fro with an enemy, what does this kind of man want him to do?" Jin Yu didn't understand the county lord's heart, and felt that the county lord was ruining himself. ”

Helian Mingyan's eyes were still staring at the direction of Wen Moqing's departure, and his faint smile was poignant and soft: "I was the one who took him first, he hated, he resented, and thought about it, isn't it a matter of course?" Five years, Jin Yu, five whole years, I heard that when he waited day and night by the river in the rain and snow, my heart was about to break......" Raising his hand to wipe away the tears that rolled down, Helian Ming took a deep breath, still smiling: "I never expect to ask him for forgiveness, as long as he lives well, my life will be at ease." ”

Jin Yu's expression was sad, and there was a hint of hatred for iron and steel: "It's okay, in the future, I will completely forget that he will never see each other again, and it has nothing to do with the county lord who he wants to be good to, lest the county lord always have to worry about him in his heart." ”

"I don't want to see him again, but who can control fate?" Helian Ming crouched on the edge of the boat, leaning down and scooping up a handful of river water. The river water was bitterly cold, and it was clear and clear in her hands, like a 'wave' in her eyes: "Jin Yu, I'm really a little 'confused' now, isn't that 'girl' really worried?" If not, then who is she? I thought I would be able to return to China soon, but now it seems that I will appear in front of Moqing again soon. ”

Wen Moqing returned to Yuejun Inn with a not-so-good mood, and as soon as she entered the lobby, she saw Bi Xiao and Yan Li gathered at the table in the corner and didn't know what to talk about, with a solemn and serious expression.

"Is she in trouble again?" Almost subconsciously, Wen Moqing knocked a shudder on Yan Li's head.

"No, it's not Liwu who caused trouble, it was someone else who caused her." Bi Xiao covered his mouth and chuckled, "Just now in the market, there was a disciple who spoke disrespectfully, and he beat people to the ground with a few moves of 'heroes saving beauty', and he was in the limelight, and his majesty and heroism were not inferior to that of his senior brother." ”

Wen Moqing is not worried about whether Bi Xiao suffers, but raised his eyebrows and looked at Yan Liwu suspiciously: "I thought you would only scare people with some 'flowers' and embroider 'legs', it seems that I underestimated the boss laughing, at least you are better than the hooligan street ruffian." ”

Of course, Yan Liwu could hear Wen Mo's affection as if he was praising and depreciating, squeezing out a disdainful sound from between his teeth, and still looking at Bi Xiao: "Come, go on, I don't have the heart to pay attention to boring people now." ”

Wen Moqing, who suddenly became a "boring person", did feel bored, so she turned over the teacup and poured it full, sat on the side and listened to the two of them talk intentionally or unintentionally, listening to it, and feeling more and more wrong.

"The things you 'handed over' to me for safekeeping are naturally very important, the last time I went to Dingyuan Palace, I stored them there, and now I can't get them back for a while. But when it comes to the 'flower' pattern on it, I have an impression, at that time I felt that the thing was like a hairpin and not like it, so I looked at it a few more times, and I realized that the two patterns really have great similarities. Bi Xiao stared in thought, as if she was thinking about something.

"I remember it clearly, and I can't be mistaken. But how could Jiu'er's fucking thing have anything to do with sneaking up on that person? Could it be that the person is Jiu'er's mother? It is possible depending on her age, but since she is alive, why didn't she go back to her hometown to find Jiu'er and Jiu'er's father? ”

Bang, the teacup was heavily placed on the table and made a loud noise, and Yan Liwu and Bi Xiao turned back in unison.

"What's the sneak attack? Someone just attacked you? ”

He didn't know who Jiu'er was, and he didn't know what Yan Liwu and Bi Xiao's mouth were like hairpins and what they weren't, but he heard the word "sneak attack" clearly, and immediately realized that in such a short time as he went to see Helian Mingyan, something bad had happened.

Bi Xiao waved his hand, trying to show that the two were not injured: "It is an inexplicable middle-aged 'woman' who looks like a village 'woman', but her shot is very sharp and tough." In fact, I don't know what happened to Liwu and I, the man came up and scolded Liwu for being a demon 'girl', and shot mercilessly, fortunately, her kung fu was generally no match for us, and she quickly fled. ”

"I should have guessed that it wasn't safe for you to take her out." Wen Moqing sighed tastelessly, not to blame Bi Xiao, but just a little worried.

Yan Liwu didn't directly say to Wen Moqing about the pattern he saw, seeing that he was clearly worried but pretending to be relaxed, he thought about it, and gently tapped the table with his cheek: "Lord Shizi, I have a small request, I don't know if Lord Shizi can agree." ”

"Say."

Not surprisingly, Wen Moqing still answered these four simple and neat words.

Yan Liwu raised his 'lips' slightly, and his eyes lit up: "Before returning to Qinglian Palace, I want to go to Dingyuan Palace." ”
