The moon hung high in the sky, and the moonlight shone through the window, illuminating the dimness of the room.

Yan Xi hugged the little black cloud in his arms, let him lean on his lap, and tried his best to let him sleep comfortably.

The occasional snoring sound in my ears signaled that it was a normal night.

They were locked up in a cell underneath the Li Mansion, with long chains locking the door to prevent people from escaping.

Xiao Heiyun woke up in a daze and saw Yan Xi thinking, and couldn't help but pause. I am obviously dead, why can I still see Sister Yan Xi? Could it be that my sister is also dead?

Xiao Heiyun tried to pinch himself, it hurt a lot, it seemed that he was really not dreaming.

"Do what?"

Asked in one sentence, Xiao Heiyun could feel that Yan Xi's temper was very bad.

"I ...... Sister...... I'm sorry. ”

"I'm sorry, what are you sorry for me?" Yan Xi lowered his head and looked at Xiao Heiyun seriously, his eyes were like a deep pool, making it difficult for people to get a glimpse of what was inside. Faced with such a face, Xiao Heiyun suddenly felt a chill in his back.

"I shouldn't have rushed out and let Li Gongzi hurt me......" Xiao Heiyun became smaller and smaller the more he spoke, and in the end he was almost silent.

"Do you feel that you have nothing to worry about, but you owe me. So you want to repay with this life, and I will pay for my life-saving kindness to you?"

"No...... No...... Such. ”

"Isn't that so?" Yan Xi said calmly.

"I'm just afraid that my sister will be hurt, and I definitely didn't seek death, my sister is so good to me, I can't watch my sister being attacked. If my sister wants to punish me...... I admit it. ”

Yan Xi sighed, straightened Xiao Heiyun's face, and looked at him seriously. "I'll tell you at the end, I'm an immortal, even if everyone else is in danger, I'll be fine, if you don't care about your own life next time like this time, then I can't keep you by my side, you can leave. ”

"I ......" He had always wanted to stay by Yan Xi's side, but seeing her being assassinated, he couldn't do it. In the constant entanglement and leaving, Xiao Heiyun chose Yan Xi.

"Sister, don't be angry, I will never do this next time. ”

"Really?"

Xiao Heiyun nodded aggrievedly, "If I don't care about my own life, I'll leave my sister's side." ”

Yan Xi knew that Xiao Heiyun was for her good, but she was a god, he was just a child, how could she let him use his life to protect her. His life should be in his own hands, not for a single person. He was too tired to do so, and she couldn't afford it.

Yan Xi saw Xiao Heiyun's pitiful appearance, and felt that he was indeed a little embarrassed by him, so he reached out and touched his head. "Little Black Cloud, you have to remember that your life belongs to you and not to anyone. ”

In the wing room of the Li Mansion, the little boy was already asleep. Yun Ji and Mrs. Yun sat at the table, preoccupied.

The lights swayed in the wind, like the struggle of people's hearts.

"What are you going to do?" Lady Yun was the first to break the peace. "Do you really want Bai Er to enter the capital with the general to meet the emperor?"

Yun Ji frowned, "At this time, the situation is not in our favor, what can we do?"

"If Bai Er knew the refining method of the Life-Preserving Pill, he would certainly be fine. But because of this, the Yun clan has no use value, and the emperor will never allow a person who knows the secret to live. But if Bai Ergongzi didn't know the refining method of the Life-Saving Pill, how could the general let them go so easily? The only way now was to rescue Bai Ergongzi and Xiao Heiyun and let them leave quickly. ”

"Madam, I understand what you said, but doing so is undoubtedly offending the general. Although my Yun clan will not die, they will not live long. ”

Mrs. Yun's face was full of sorrow, "Then just watch Bai Er and Xiao Heiyun die, or the entire Yun clan will be wiped out?" Xianggong is not the time to hesitate now, whether to save or not to save is only between your thoughts." Besides, don't forget that the little black cloud has a life-saving grace for our son. ”

No matter how Bai Er was explaining, they could still see at a glance that his so-called younger brother was Xiao Heiyun. Because the medicine of the Yun clan is not available everywhere, the reason why it is not debunked is because Bai Er did not want to hide it from them. The same name, similar face, without any concealment, he just wanted to tell them that the current little black cloud was the person he was protecting, and no one could touch him.

"That's it, even if the Yun clan perishes in the future, it is the destiny of heaven, and I can't complain about others. ”

Yun Ji sighed lightly and made up his mind.

For several days, Yan Xi and Xiao Heiyun were locked in their cells. Li Wei is also a person who cherishes talents, with good wine and good food every day, and gold and silver treasures are constantly sent in, just waiting for Bai Er to relax.

A pile of gold was piled up next to the cell, and the sun reflected a blinding light on it.

Xiao Heiyun jumped out of bed, picked up the silk quilt on the bed, and covered all the gold to block the dazzling light.

When he turned around, Yan Xi was still meditating, and Xiao Heiyun didn't dare to disturb, so he tiptoed back.

"Just ask any questions. ”

Yan Xi opened his eyes and looked at the little black cloud standing aside.

Xiao Heiyun didn't dare to talk to Yan Xi in the past few days, one was that he was apprehensive about the question Yan Xi asked, and the other was that he could see that Yan Xi's face was not good, and it seemed that something big had happened.

Xiao Heiyun hesitated for a moment and opened his mouth. "Sister, when are we going to get out?"

"It's coming. ”

"Soon? Is the general going to let us out, or is he going to take us to the capital?"

Yan Xi said, "It's not, it's a person who can't wait." ”

At ten o'clock in the evening, the little black cloud took the quilt back, and Snail slept soundly on the bed. Suddenly, the sound of chains slashing woke him up from his dream.

Xiao Heiyun raised his eyes and saw several black-clothed people cutting the chains with knives, and after a few clicks, the chains broke and fell to the ground.

"Childe, please come with us. One of the men in black rushed in and said to Yan Xi.

"Let's go?"

"It's Patriarch Yun who wants us to save you, it's too late, and I ask Gongzi to come with us quickly. ”

Yan Xi glanced at the man in black, turned around and picked up the little black cloud and fled with the man in black.

I met many officers and soldiers along the way, but fortunately, the men in black were well arranged. The path blocked the pursuit of the officers and soldiers.

By ten o'clock in the morning, everyone had left the town.

Yun Ji and Mrs. Yun were in the carriage, and when they saw someone coming, they hurriedly jumped out of the carriage.

"Bai Er Gongzi, this is the carriage we have prepared for you, from here all the way to the north can go out of the customs, this is the token. After Mrs. Yun finished speaking, she stepped forward and handed the token to Yan Xi.

Yan Xi didn't accept it, "I know what Patriarch Yun and Mrs. Yun have in mind, you want me to go, because you are afraid of losing your value in the eyes of the general or the emperor." ”

Hearing Yan Xi say this, Mrs. Yun stopped in mid-air with the hand holding the token.

Yun Ji obviously didn't want to talk nonsense either, and faced Yan Xi. "Yes, that's what we're for. So is Childe going or not leaving?"

"Let's go. Yan Xi said, "But not now." ”

Yun Ji said, "What do you mean?"

"It means ......," Yan Xi handed over the little black cloud he was holding in his hand to Mrs. Yun's hand.

"Brother......" Xiao Heiyun obviously became afraid, pulling Yan Xi's sleeve and unwilling to let go.

Yan Xi looked up at Yun Ji, "Please also ask the two of you to take care of him for me, what you are worried about, I promise it will not happen." But if something happens to him, Bai Er will definitely spare it. ”

"What do you want to do?" Mrs. Yun didn't understand what Yan Xi meant, but watching his every move was definitely not a simple matter.

Yan Xi said, "The two of you thought that they could rescue us so easily, but the methods of the great general Li Wei were not recognized by the six relatives. If we leave now, I can guarantee that the Yun clan will not survive tomorrow. I believe that the two of you also know this outcome, so why let us go? The only explanation is that letting us stay is the same result, or worse. You're gambling, betting that you still have the value to use. But I don't like to owe favors to others, so take care of him for me, I'm sure you all know who he is, but now that he's the one I want to protect, you two should make the wisest choice. ”

Mrs. Yun was holding the little black cloud in her arms, and she could feel that the little black cloud's body became cold at the moment when Yan Xi said she was leaving, which was a manifestation of great pain.

"Second Master Bai, you don't need to ......"

"Mrs. Yun, can you promise me, take care of him?" Yan Xi's eyes were full of sincerity and determination, so that Mrs. Yun couldn't refuse.

"Brother, I don't want to ......" Xiao Heiyun's eyes were red, but he tried his best to endure it and didn't let the tears fall.

Yan Xi said, "Little Heiyun, be good, my brother is going to deal with things, it's too dangerous to take you there." You stay with them, and your brother will come back to you. ”

"I ......"

"Promise me to live well, and if I don't see you when I come back, we'll never see each other again. ”

Xiao Heiyun slowly let go of the hand that was holding Yan Xi, and his fingers turned white.

After all, it was the same ending, and she still had to separate from him in the end. Why, it was not easy for him to find someone who was good to him, but he still couldn't escape such a fate.

The brilliance in Xiao Heiyun's eyes gradually disappeared, and the wisps dissipated into the endless darkness with Yan Xi's back when he left.

Mrs. Yun looked at Xiao Heiyun's sad appearance, reached out and patted him on the back, "Your brother is not a mortal, you don't need to worry too much about him, he doesn't let you go for your own good." ”

At ten o'clock in the morning, Li Wei came out of the town with a bunch of people and horses, but saw Yan Xi leaning against the tree on the side of the road, looking at them leisurely.

"The general's speed is not slow, but unfortunately it still made me wait for a long time. ”

Li Wei thought that the assassin had robbed people, and his face sank to the extreme, but the moment he saw Bai Er, he suddenly opened his mouth and laughed.

"It turns out that Bai Gongzi didn't go far, I thought that Bai Gongzi didn't like our Yu Town, so I took a step ahead and was about to get Bai Gongzi back. ”

Yan Xi approached Li Wei with a wicked smile, "How can it be?" The general is like hospitality, gold and silver treasures, and countless beauties, if I have no problem with my brain, of course I have to choose the general." People, once they have tasted enough sweet days, who wants to live a hard life?"
