Chapter 1 Biyun Nunnery
There is no trace of wind in the middle of summer noon, the sun is always so bright and dazzling, everyone or cat in the wing room lunch break, or find a shady place to escape the heat, a huge Biyun Nunnery, quiet no sound.
Fu Tingyun wore a moon-white cotton shirt and a bamboo hat, and slowly walked west along the weedy and thorny wall in the backyard of the nunnery.
The heat of the sun-scorched ground shook and roasted her sweat like rain, and her clothes were soon soaked with sweat, damp and sticky to her body, and the low thorn bushes hooked her skirt from time to time, and a few steps from the unkempt weeds would "buzz" out of a cloud of black crow worms, and she would squat down to untie the skirt hanging on the thorns, and then take out a handkerchief to wave the unknown insects, looking very embarrassed.
Fu Tingyun had no time to care, looked around, and finally stopped under a big locust tree.
The tree was thick and thick, and I don't know if it was a strong wind or a lightning strike, and it had broken in the middle. The other end of the treetop fell beside the wall, and it died and rotted into a nest of insects and ants, and new branches grew again at the base of the tree, which were already the thickness of the bowl, and the branches and leaves grew lushly and obliquely outside the wall.
That's what I saw on the second floor of the Scripture Pavilion that day!
Fu Tingyun was overjoyed in his heart, and there was a faint smile on his solemn face.
She kicked the newborn branch hard.
The leaves rattled and the branches were still firmly attached to the wall.
Fu Tingyun smiled with satisfaction and picked the bamboo hat, revealing the black and dense green silk.
She tucked the corner of her skirt into the sweat towel around her waist, and then carefully stepped on the branches of the tree and climbed up the tree.
The bright sunlight fell on her face through the leaves, and on her hands and skirt, forming dappled lights and shadows.
Fu Tingyun had no distractions and quickly climbed the wall.
She plucked the leaves that blocked her view.
Without warning or warning, a young man's face suddenly appeared from behind the leaves.
They were so close, face to face, nose to nose. She could even smell the sweat on his body and feel the heat on his lips as he breathed.
"Ah......" After a moment of sluggishness, Fu Tingyun exclaimed in shock, instinctively retreating to avoid it, but forgetting that she was standing on a hanging tree at the moment - she stepped into the air and fell into the grass under the tree.
The wall is so high, how can anyone appear at the head of the wall?
She wanted to get up in a daze, but her eyes were black for a while, her neck suddenly tightened, and the person was instantly dragged up and pushed against the wall.
Fu Tingyun's breathing suddenly became difficult, and the rough wall made her back extremely painful.
"Let go of me!" She wanted to shout loudly, but all she heard was a whimper, she wanted to kick hard, but the strength of her whole body seemed to be taken away, and her hands and feet were limp and unable to exert her strength.
It's over, it's over...... In the silent afternoon, in the remote and deserted backyard, the man climbing the backyard of the nunnery...... She's dead!
Like a mirror in my heart, I can't move.
The hand around his neck loosened, and a thin stream of air poured in.
Fu Tingyun inhaled greedily.
The man's low and eerie voice sounded coldly in her ears: "If you dare to make a little noise, I will immediately break your neck." ”
His voice was neither high nor low, dull and smooth, without a trace of ups and downs, but it was more intimidating and coercive than those loud roars and shouts.
Fu Tingyun's whole body was weak, and he nodded vigorously, for fear that the person would not believe it, and in the eyes of others, he just bowed his head slightly.
The hand on the neck slowly relaxed, with a few hints of temptation.
She collapsed on all fours, coughed uncomfortably with her hands on her throat, and remembered the man's words, and hurriedly held back her cough, looking up at the other in horror.
The man in front of him was no more than in his early twenties, tall and tall, but he was very thin, loosely dressed in a tattered short brown that could not be seen, his deep-set eyes were surprisingly bright and sharp, his chapped lips were tightly pursed, and his eyes stared at her like a falcon looking down on a chick, indifferent and a little fierce.
Fu Tingyun's heart sank.
Glance at his feet quickly.
He wore no shoes, and his trousers were pulled high and low, revealing his tanned skin.
Her heart kept sinking.
A cruel and ruthless man like him, even from humble backgrounds, would have been employed by debt-collecting gangsters or wealthy merchants, but he was so poor that he could not even afford to wear straw sandals...... Unless, he can't see the light!
She couldn't help but tremble!
Is it a wanted Jiangyang thief? Or is it a fugitive who is burdened with human lives in the murderous township?
Whether it was the former or the latter, she stumbled into his whereabouts...... I'm going to be killed!
Her whole body went limp, and her eyes couldn't help but fall on the big hands with sharp bones and iron pincers.
Fu Tingjun still remembers the feeling when it pinched his throat!
No, if he wanted to kill someone, he could have strangled her directly at that time, so why threaten her with words.
She thought of the temptation when he let go of his hand, and a flash of inspiration flashed to her.
Or, he has some scruples!
Fu Tingyun's heart slowly came alive, and the strength returned to her, and she quickly thought of countermeasures.
If his guess is correct, since he is a person who can't see the light, he definitely doesn't care about carrying an extra life...... Most of them were afraid that the body would be found after killing someone or that the deceased's relatives would attract the attention of the government and expose his traces......
At this time, more hesitation is more danger!
"Strongman," she didn't hesitate, enduring the discomfort in her throat, and said in a hoarse voice, "I am the daughter of the Huayin Fu family. Biyun Nunnery is my family's family temple. Due to the hot weather, I took my maidservant to Biyun Nunnery to escape the heat. I heard that there are a few stone tablets in the backyard of the former dynasty calligraphy, and I want to see them, but every time I am in a hurry, I don't have a chance. This time I came to live in the nunnery, thinking that I had a chance, but the nurse felt that the weather was too hot, and she was afraid that I would suffer from heat stroke, so she didn't let me come, so I quietly came to see it when there was no one......
His face was still expressionless, and a trace of hesitation seemed to flash in his eyes.
Fu Tingyun was secretly happy, and her voice became softer and softer: "Men and women don't kiss, if the nurse finds out that I am alone with a man, I am afraid that I will be blamed by her......" She lowered her eyelids and made a look of frustration, and the corner of her eyes peeked at his expression, "If she told her mother, she would inevitably implicate the strong man......"
He pursed the corners of his lips and suddenly interrupted her: "You say, you are the daughter of the Huayin Fu family?" The flat tone makes people unable to hear the joy and anger.
"Yes!" Fu Tingyun was busy kneeling and sitting on his knees, his hands crossed on his knees, "I'm ninth in the family." ”
He let out an "oh", and his slightly raised tail note was a little indescribable mockery: "It's that there are five archways in front of the door, except for the archway of Enfeng Prince Taibao and Zhuangyuan and Di, the other three are the Fu family of the chastity archway?" ”
Fu Tingyun immediately realized that he was quite disdainful of the Fu family.
The corners of her eyebrows were slightly raised.
Although the Fu family has never produced feudal officials in these generations, they are respected as before with their innocent and rigorous family style.
He actually looked down on the Fu family!
She wanted to speak, but she stopped.
It would obviously be unwise to argue with him about this at this time.
If a person like him knows what courtesy, righteousness and shame are, where can he still end up in such a situation? Tell him that he is loyal, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, but he is afraid that he will play the piano to the cow, and it is better to tell him that if he lets her go, she can give him a sum of money without alarming others...... Luckily, I brought some jewelry...... If it is exchanged for silver, it will also look like one or two hundred taels...... Although it is not enough to make him happy, at least it can solve the current dilemma...... I don't know if he will get an inch after she puts forward this condition...... She came in a hurry, and no matter how much she had, she couldn't get it out......
Fu Tingyun was a little undecided.
The man said, "You said this is the Fu family's family temple?" ”
Fu Tingyun hurriedly gathered his thoughts: "Hmm! ”
"Then you should know where the kitchen is, right?" He said lightly, "You find a secluded path to avoid the people in the nunnery and take me to the kitchen!" ”
Go...... Kitchen!
Fu Tingyun was very surprised, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he stood up with the stump of the old locust tree.
Maybe she got up too violently, or maybe she hit somewhere just now, she had Venus in front of her, closed her eyes and rested for a while, then she relieved herself and slowly headed east.
He silently followed her, out of the backyard, into an alleyway.
There were no trees planted in the alley, the sun shone directly overhead, and the white flowers shone brightly, which made Fu Tingyun dizzy, but it was not as good as the gaze of the person behind her, as if a hole had burned out of her body, making her honestly afraid, not daring to think more, and not daring to take a wrong step.
Fortunately, I didn't meet anyone on the road, and the kitchen in the southeast corner was dark and silent.
He searched in the kitchen for a while, gathered steamed buns, wheat cakes, pickles, and even half a bowl of leftover rice that he hadn't finished and wrapped it in his shirt.
Fu Tingyun lowered his head when he undressed.
Her face burned badly.
It was the first time she had seen a man stripping in front of her when she was so big.
The country horseman, sure enough, is very vulgar!
"Let's go!" But in the blink of an eye, he stood in front of her with clothes wrapped in food in one hand and a clay jar the size of a bucket of rice in the other.
Walk? Where to go? It was just a courtyard away from where she lived......
The thought flashed, and her face turned pale.
He asked her to go back to the backyard with him!
No, no, no...... He didn't need her anymore, she went back to the backyard with him, and that was to find death...... You can't go with him anyway...... In the courtyard next door live a few nuns who cook, and at this time, it should be during the lunch break...... She's so confused...... She should have taken the opportunity to run away when he was looking for food......
"Strong!" Fu Tingyun quietly stepped back, while trying her best to make her tone appear gentle and submissive, "You already know the way out, the sun is so big outside, I've been basking in the backyard for so long, I can't bear it, I won't send you out......"
The heel has touched the threshold.
"Help!" She ran away.
It's just that as soon as the word "help" was shouted, her throat tightened again, and she was pinched by the neck and pushed against the landing pillar in the center of the kitchen.
My whole body hurts like I'm falling apart.
She desperately tried to break his hand that was holding her neck, staring at his face as if this was the only way to express her hatred.
He looked at her calmly, a little careless, as if he were pinching an ant to death. It was as if the killing in front of him was as ordinary and ordinary to him as eating and drinking!
Fu Tingyun trembled like falling into an ice cave...... Dying like a fish thrown ashore...... Gradually, I can't breathe...... plunged into darkness......
