Chapter 50: The Death of the Butterfly

After confessing to Lin Qingji, Luo Die felt that the whole person was a lot more relaxed, and there was no estrangement in the bottom of her heart, and the relationship between the two who tried a secret was even more sweet and harmonious. , only occasionally there will be sadness and reluctance in the eyes that others are incomprehensible.

In their spare time, the two chanted poems and painted together, and played tea together.

At dusk, the two will play music in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, the sunset dyes the whole sky red, like painting a wide and gorgeous colorful watercolor painting, the lotus flowers in the lake are in full bloom, the wind blows the jade Tingting, and from time to time a few naughty fish jump out of the water.

The breeze blows, the broken hair of the butterfly sitting in front of the piano flutters on both cheeks, the white dress flies, like a fairy showing the gentle color of dust, and the sound of the piano pours out from the fingertips, and the melodious flute sound, like a gurgling spring to soothe the troubled soul.

Lin Qingji held a jade flute to his lips in a moon-white robe, and between his fingers, the melodious flute sound floated out repeatedly, and the flying corners of the robe and the skirt of the beauty beside him were intertwined, like a pair of beautiful people.

The gentle remnant sun casts a slender shadow for the two of them, and there are more than enough shadows, and at this moment they just want to live peacefully and peacefully.

But it is not easy to stay out of the whirlpool in the center of the vortex, because calm is only a prelude to the storm.

More than ten days later, after Lin Qingji finished dealing with the matter at hand, he saw that the weather was rarely cool and pleasant, and he thought that a Taoist friend he had met during his trip a few days ago was meditating at the Xuanmiao Temple outside Luoyang City, so Lin Qingji took Lin Yi and the two to ride in the direction of Xishan in the afternoon of this day.

Halfway up the mountain, the horse stopped, and sniffed uneasily with white gas from his nose, and the two who noticed the strangeness also tensed their nerves, and looked around, both of them have practiced martial arts for many years, and such a strong murderous aura is not unnoticed, and after glancing at each other, they tacitly held their hands on the long sword at their waists.

After hearing the life story of the falling butterfly, Lin Qingji knew that the next days would still not be peaceful, because he did not want to embarrass the falling butterfly, so many days of investigation and secret visits to find the whereabouts of the Dongying people, but every time there was a little clue, along the way to find out when the Dongying people changed places and there was no trace, three days ago, there was no news and the clues were broken, and I had long expected that someone in Luoyang City would answer so it was so difficult to investigate, but I didn't expect the other party to be so tightly arranged.

Lin Qingji, who had no clue, could only lure the enemy with his body, since they wanted to kill themselves, then create an opportunity for them, and just so could they also feel how capable the enemy was in the dark.

In the past, at this time, the cicadas and birds in the forest were endless, but now the ears of the two of them are so quiet that they can even hear a needle falling, which is too weird.

"Are you not going to take my life? I, Lin Qingji, have the head here, even if I have the ability to take it, what kind of hero is it if I cower and dare not show up? ”

In response to Lin Qingji, there were a few cold arrows that broke through the air, and Lin Yi shouted: "Son, be careful!" ”

The two of them drew their swords and waved to deal with the rain of arrows rushing towards them, and then they saw more than a dozen black-clothed and masked light figures flash out from the dense forests on both sides, and slashed towards Lin Qingji and Lin Yi together.

The sword wind is fierce, the sword light flickering, and the black shadow follows like a ghost, and the sword skills are not like the kung fu of the Central Plains martial arts, although I have expected it in my heart, but the other party's knife skills are unpredictable, tricky and weird, so strange that people can't figure out what way to fight back next.

Not only that, the speed of this sword technique also frightened Lin Qingji, and in order to be afraid that the enemy would be on guard, he only took Lin Yi to follow him alone this time, so the two of them coped with more than a dozen people, even if the martial arts of the two of them had reached the realm of Xuanhua, they still felt struggling, and after two quarters of an hour, they already felt that it was difficult to persevere, both of them had suffered more or less skin trauma, and the bright red blood droplets stained the white robe were extremely dazzling, making Lin Qingji, who had a messy bun, lose his usual chic appearance, and look a little embarrassed and depressed.

The sound of horses' hooves in the distance gradually approached, and a petite figure of pale cyan crouched on the horse and flew up and down with the wind, the woman's gentle face was covered with sadness, and her hand whipped down, and the horse under her galloped forward like mad in pain.

After the butterfly arrived, when he saw Lin Qingji and Lin Yi, who had gradually fallen behind, his face suddenly turned into a ball and pleaded: "Father-in-law, sisters, please stop, please." ”

Everyone was fighting hotly, and there was no time to take care of it, Luo Die saw a knife fall on Lin Qingji's leg and cut a blood mark, and jumped into Lin Qingji's side to join the battle with a gritted tooth, because Luo Die came prepared, he looked for an opportunity to throw out a puff of smoke and dust, and several people in the battle did not expect Luo Die to suddenly come to such a hand, and after inhaling the smoke and dust, they all slowly stopped, bent over with a knife and coughed.

Luo Die helped Lin Qingji limp and walked in the direction of the horse, and was looking down to take a look at Lin Qingji's leg injury, only to see a cold light coming from behind, and Luo Die, who didn't have time to think about it, jumped behind Lin Qingji, and the sound of a knife into his chest and the muffled snort of Luo Die, and a few poignant voices shouted: "Little sister!" ”

The man with the knife was also stunned for a moment, but it was only a fleeting heartache flashed in his eyes, and then he pulled out the knife with a sharp hand.

As the knife on his body was withdrawn, Luo Die's chest was suddenly stained with a large area of scarlet, warm blood slowly flowed out, and Luo Die's mouth murmured: "Father-in-law... You promised... promised his daughter a life for a life, but why are you still unwilling to let him go......"

The man in black who was fighting with Lin Yi also froze when he heard the situation here, and Lin Yi stabbed a sword into the opponent's chest, drew his sword and slashed at the man in black who killed the butterfly, but the man in black only lost his mind for a moment, and when Lin Yi's sword was still about five inches away, it flashed quickly, and the sword that could have only hit the chest was only inserted into his right arm, but the man in black also lost the long knife in his hand in pain.

Lin Qingji looked at the falling butterfly covered in blood, tears fell in his eyes, his face was full of wetness, he picked up the falling butterfly and walked towards the red brown horse with difficulty, and said softly: "Falling butterfly, don't be afraid, hold on, I will definitely not let you have anything to do." ”

The face of the butterfly in his arms was as pale as paper, but he smiled like a flower, and his eyes were full of tenderness: "Don't waste your efforts, I have already taken the Hundred Flowers Poison Pill given by my father-in-law, this poison is unique to Dongying, and after taking it twenty-one days later, I died of poison, and now I have penetrated the internal organs, and I have no skills to return to the sky, I thought that my father-in-law would keep his promise, but I didn't expect that I was too naΓ―ve, I'm sorry!" ”

Luo Die's eyes were full of guilt, and hot tears slowly slipped down and fell on Lin Qingji's hands and clothes.

"How can you be so stupid, without you by your side, this prosperous world is just a dream bubble, why, why, why does God want to do this to me?" Lin Qingji's forehead was protruding, there was nothing better than watching his beloved die in front of him, but he couldn't do anything about it, this feeling of helplessness made Lin Qingji feel that life was worse than death.

"To be able to come to Luoyang, and... Acquaintance with you, these days are the happiest days of Falling Butterfly's life, before... In the past, there were only murders and endless tasks, but Luo Die was also willful once, thinking... I want to live for myself once, although the time is short, and I die without regrets, but... I'll never have the chance to play the piano with you again... Common... Let's play a song. ”

The smile on Luo Die's face was as bright as a summer flower, although it was painful and difficult to say it all, but when she thought that Lin Qingji had told her that she liked to see her smile the most, she didn't want her son-in-law to remember her dead face in the end, so she could only do her best to maintain the only smiling face with her last bit of strength, hoping that her loved ones could always remember her bright smiling face.
