Chapter 18: The Battle of Momo
Some people are like this, they don't need any words, they can know what the other person means at a glance. Nangong Mo knew that Bai Mo wanted to go to see Yi Li, and Bai Mo knew that Nangong Mo wanted to talk to him, so he followed Nangong Mo downstairs.
The two came to the corridor connecting the backyard and the front yard, Nangong Mo took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, smoked one and handed it to Bai Mo, Bai Mo glanced at Nangong Mo and pulled the corner of his mouth, stretched out his hand to take it, took out a lighter from his pocket to light it, took a deep breath, and spit out a puff of blue-gray turbid smoke, adding a trace of melancholy under the dim light.
Nangong Mo put the cigarette in his hand and did not light it, put the cigarette case in his other hand, took out the lighter, opened and closed it in his hand, and the sound of the lighter tinkled rhythmically throughout the corridor.
Bai Mo took a second puff of cigarette, spit it out casually, stretched out his hand and waved the smoke in front of him, and then leaned on the railing of the cloister, raised his eyebrows and looked at Nangong Mo: "What, do you want to warn me to stay away from her in the future?" ”
Nangong Mo regained a warm smile on his face, the corners of his mouth opened a just right arc, glanced at Bai Mo and turned his face to look at the camellia in the distance, his voice was warm with an imperceptible smile: "In your eyes, I am such a vulgar and immoral villain?" ”
Bai Mo laughed and swallowed the clouds, his face was full of inquiring banter: "Today Gong Mo said that you are a slave of money and power, with a mercenary businessman's face, didn't you deny it?" ”
Nangong Mo didn't laugh angrily, turned around and looked at Bai Mo calmly, and said with a smile: "Du Fu once wrote in "Danqing Presents General Cao": 'Danqing doesn't know the old generals, and wealth is like a floating cloud to me', Confucius's "Analects" once said: 'Rice and water are sparse, and the pillow is bent and pillowed, and the joy is also in it. Unrighteous riches and nobles are like clouds to me.'" What kind of person do you think my Nangong Mo is? ”
Bai Mo smiled disappreliantly, and let the smoke ethereal ethereal ethereal from his mouth wrap his whole face, with a cynical attitude, in front of Nangong Mo, he looked like a child who had not grown up, "You are neither of these two people." ”
Nangong Mo became interested, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Really?" ”
Bai Mo nodded, coughed dryly a few times, and turned his face away: "A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way." Ability is worthy of ambition, and the city is worthy of means. When you go to the battlefield alone, you can retreat from the enemy. ”
Nangong Mo chuckled, turned his back to Bai Mo and looked at the flowing water under the corridor, and said with a smile: "In history, the king of Chu retreated because of Duke Wen of Jin, pursued with victory, and was proud to defeat the enemy in Chengpu, so who will I be?" ”
Bai Mo dropped the cigarette butt in his hand, stepped on it and extinguished it vigorously, stood up and walked to Nangong Mo's side and stood side by side: "I don't know." She asked me the same thing, and I said I didn't know. ”
"Didn't you know me for a long time?" Nangong Mo asked, he remembered the time when he drove Yi Yan away from L Hospital, and Bai Mo asked outside the door, he is Nangong Mo? Come.
"How can I know the famous NMZ prince in Nandu, but that stupid girl wrote all three words Nangong Mo in her diary, and asked her who she was, she never said, I thought it was just a name from which novel magazine, who knew that there was such a person." In Bai Mo's disapprehensive tone, he tried his best to be unwilling, and Nangong Mo heard it.
"She's not having a good time in Whitewater." Nangong Mo said a declarative sentence, and his tone was full of guilt and distress.
Bai Mo didn't care and sneered: "Who cares if it's good or not?" She doesn't care herself, it's useless for the who cares. Bai Mo said with anger, and kicked hard at the foot of the railing of the cloister.
Nangong Mo turned a deaf ear and raised his eyes to look into the distance, "For so many years, you have been very good to her, so good that she can trust you wholeheartedly and maintain it in every way, even if she knows that you have a connection with Gong Mo Nanyu behind your back, she has never debunked it, and would rather be a fool." In that case, do you still plan to stay in Southtown? Or are you going to do justice for her in the way you think is good? Nan Yu and Gong Mo haven't figured out their own affairs for so many years, why do you think they can help her get justice? ”
Bai Mo's expression stiffened for a moment, then he sank his face, put away the cynical and disdainful smile on his face, and turned his head to look at Nangong Mo: "I should have known that she was so smart, she shouldn't have been kept in the dark for so long." I once thought that as long as I cornered her, she would give up revenge and give up all her obsessions to return to Linjiang County with me. Bai Mo sighed lightly and smiled: "I didn't expect it...... If you know these things are related to me, then she must know about them too. That's why you were able to promise each other, but I didn't expect that I ended up empty. ”
Nangong Mo lit the cigarette in his hand and took a puff, the smoke spread out in front of him, and he didn't look at Bai Mo, "You conspired with Bai Chutian, Gong Shaohan assisted from the side, and the plan went so smoothly again and again, did you never suspect anything?" ”
When Bai Mo heard this, he squinted his eyes and looked at Nangong Mo, and only laughed out loud after a while: "It turns out that that person is you, I should have thought of it a long time ago." ”
Nangong Mo raised his hand and took a second puff of cigarette, but did not answer.
Bai Mo smiled self-deprecatingly, "My Bai Mo skills are not as good as others, I admit defeat." Unexpectedly, you even deceived Gong Shaohan. We all have the same purpose, we all want to protect her, so it doesn't matter who wins or loses. Nangong Mo, I can assure you that if it weren't for life and death, I would never see her again in my life. ”
Listening to Bai Mo's assurance, Nangong Mo chuckled, "You are smarter than Bai Chutian, I am more willing to help you than him." You don't have to promise me anything, if you want to see her, it's also your business, I, Nangong Mo, am not narrow enough to interfere in her life and thoughts. ”
"Aren't you afraid that I'll dig into your corner?"
"You don't have that chance." Nangong Mo sneered lightly, "Gong Shaohan is not a good person, if Bai Chutian doesn't have two hearts, it will be a rising tide, otherwise he will only be cocooned and self-bound." ”
"It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. I Bai Mo is not so big to be able to persuade others to get lost and know their way back, I have understood the methods of the eldest young master of Nangong, if he Bai Chutian does not understand and comprehend, he will come to the world for nothing. ”
"Can she still live?" Nangong Mo glanced at Bai Mo slowly, restrained his expression, and asked in a low tone.
"I don't know. Master went to Jiangbei Zhouguan on the morning of the first day of the new year for this matter, the witch Gu on her body has melted into the blood, Master once told me to get rid of the witch Gu needs to collect three things, one is snow wolf gall, the second is the spirit snake grass, and the third is the blood of a living person. The snow wolf gall is in Ju'er's body, the spirit snake grass is nowhere to be found, and the master returns to the boat official just to live human blood. But even if the Gu poison is cleared, her heart and cranial nerves are also seriously damaged, unless she continues to develop antibodies to BHC, which is equivalent to continuing to experiment with her, which is unfair to her. ”
"Does she know herself?"
"I don't know."
"Don't tell her that identity." Nangong Mo threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, patted the non-existent dust on his body, and turned around and turned to open the white ink, "Spirit snake grass, I will find it." After speaking, he walked past Bai Mo to the front yard.
Bai Mo's sonorous voice came from behind him, "Even if she finds the Spirit Snake Grass, she won't agree, she would rather die by herself than die by Ju'er." What's more, the blood of a living person cannot be obtained at all. Nangong Mo stopped his steps and pondered for a long time before he spoke: "What is living human blood?" ”
"The blood of a living person must be the fresh blood of a minor girl born when she was the seventh son of the seventh month of the seventh month of Miaojiang, and to remove the Gu poison, it must be two living people who exchange blood for blood, she will not agree."
Nangong Mo asked in a hoarse voice, "The living exchange blood for blood?" ”
"Yes."
Nangong Mo didn't speak, raised his steps, and strode away with a cold frost, Bai Mo stood in place and looked at Nangong Mo's back as he straightened his back and left, and a sigh rose in his heart.
He kept saying that he loved Yi Li, but because of his own selfish desires, he still calculated her, compared to what Nangong Mo did for her, Bai Mo was willing to bow down as he said.
Bai Mo has always thought that love must be equal, and one party must give back to make the relationship balanced, and he even thought of besieging Yi Li, but now he knows how correct it was for him to give up that idea at a critical moment.
If there is someone who can make Yi Yan live regardless of everything, that person can't do it except Nangong Mo.
Countless times Bai Mo wanted to give up, he wanted to stop, but in the past there was no strong desire to give up today, he was finally relieved, no matter how hard he tried, no matter how much he calculated, it was not his, no matter how much he did, no matter how hard he tried, it didn't belong to him after all, as Yi Yan said, some people can only look at each other from a distance across the crowd in this life, and they can't be with each other for a lifetime.
Perhaps, he should really do what he promised Nangong Mo just now, unless he lives and dies, he can never see Yi Yan again in this life, and he can also do what he said, love others from now on, so that he will never want to have anything to do with Yi Yan for the rest of his life.
Bai Mo lifted his steps and followed Nangong Mo back to the front yard from a distance, and saw Nangong Mo open the door of Yi Li's room at the door, and then closed the door, Bai Mo smiled bitterly, reached out and wiped his face, suddenly his feet were weak, and he couldn't lift the start to take a step forward, he thought, now it's time to go up and pretend that he doesn't care about anything and then go back to the guest room to sleep, say goodbye to Yi Yan early tomorrow morning, and leave Nandu. Or turn around and leave now, and just say goodbye without saying goodbye.
After hesitating for a while, he still picked up his steps and went upstairs. When he passed by the door of Yilip, he stopped for a long time, raised his hand and wanted to knock on the door, but he still flexed his fingers and put it down hesitantly. Now, he has a dislike with Yi Li, even if Yi Li doesn't say it, he can't rest easy if nothing happens, thinking that Yi Li came out of the court alone because he lost the case, and when he stood on the side of the street alone, his heart tightened, he shook it, pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled bitterly, and said to himself in his heart, forget it.
Bai Mo, you are a bad seed.
Su Jia looked at his face coldly, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, knowing that the person in Bai Mo's heart was Yi Lip, he didn't say that Yi Lip was bad, and only said that he Bai Mo was a bad seed.
