Chapter 66: Grass Night Talk

After five days of tiring travel, we finally arrived at the foot of Kent Mountain, camped and rested, and planned to enter the endless mountains the next day, after entering the grassland, every night I could see those bright and extinguished bloody eyes in the darkness everywhere, just as Xiao Lianshan predicted, the Fusang people have been following us like a shadow, I always looked at the impenetrable darkness with worry, and the blood-red eyes were unscrupulously bright and extinguished around us. ``し

I thought Yoshida Hanzo and the rest of the Fuso people must have been watching our every move in a corner eerily from some corner, and I subconsciously touched my arm, rolling up the clearly visible lines on the cuffs and the scar on my shoulder, as if to warn me that another dangerous battle was about to break out.

The man in the ghost market told me that now that he had the ability of Zongling Qifei, I could summon the god king who almost killed us in Huangquan, but he forgot to tell me how to use Zongling Qifei's ability.

But at least it should be safe now, the silence before the death battle often makes people more anxious, and the Fuso people are still counting on us to find the exact location of Genghis Khan's mausoleum, and they will definitely not rush to do it before this, so Yun Duruo and I sat leisurely on the grass, probably the beautiful night of the grassland made us hold hands and walk far unconsciously.

Yun Duruo and I looked up at the endless sky side by side, the stars twinkling like diamonds set in the night, she was still very weak, her head rested on my shoulder, the silence everywhere The night breeze was refreshing, I hadn't felt so comfortable for a long time.

"Do you remember the guy we met in Ghost City?" I looked at the stars and put my arm around her shoulder, asking thoughtfully.

Yun Duruo nodded weakly, turned his head to look at me and asked curiously.

"What's wrong?"

"He seems to be waiting for someone."

"Yes, it's still a woman, so I guess I have a close relationship with him." Yun Duruo said with a faint smile and wistful. "Seeing that he is not very old, but he is quite affectionate, I really don't know if the person he is waiting for will wait."

"I always felt like he had been waiting for a long time." I took a deep breath and said softly.

"Actually, I'm more curious about why he and the man separated." Yun Duruo said regretfully.

"But I envy him."

"You envy him? What envy him? ”

"I remember that he said that he had promised the man he was waiting for, to take her back to the place where she was born, and to build a hut under the shade of spring water, willows, flowers and trees, under the eaves were shiny wind chimes, and she lived a life of sunset and sunrise, and every time he came home he could hear the pleasant wind chimes, sounding in the spring breeze with the fragrance of distant mountains and trees, and then he saw the man standing by the house waiting for him, elegant as the wind, smiling like a flower." I pondered the man's words as if I could see the picture he painted.

The night wind swept through the wind chimes that rang Yun Duruo's wrists, which he had woven with his own hands, in fact, I knew that the man had always woven his hope.

"Why did you talk about this all of a sudden?" Yun Duruo asked me suspiciously.

"I envy him for being able to see through the world, and stay with the people he cares about, I may have been too persistent before, and I really plan to go back when this case is dealt with." My eyes fell on the wind chimes on her wrist. "Will you come with me, as he said, we also hang wind chimes under the eaves, and when we hear the wind chimes when we go home, I know that you are waiting for me."

"Can you really let it go?" Yun Duruo asked with some joy.

"Of course......," I said, rubbing my eyes, which were no longer clear, helplessly. I don't know what will happen to this eye disease in the end, I can let it go, but you have to think clearly, maybe I won't be able to see anything in the future. ”

"No...... With me, you won't be invisible. Yun Duruo hesitated and replied.

I smiled and touched her head, and when my hand was lowered, it touched the bag that Yun Duruo straddled diagonally, and it was bulging with something.

"What do you take with you for a long journey?" I asked curiously.

Yun Duruo took out the horn from the bag that the ghost market gave me, I forgot about it after Xiao Lianshan's birthday, although the horn under the moonlight was old and broken, but the moonlight shone on it with a thick light, this horn was repieced, and it must have been broken apart.

"Why do you carry this horn?" I asked, confused.

"I don't know, I always feel that this thing is so special, I inexplicably like it, I originally wanted to find a chance to give it to Uncle Xiao, but I forgot about it when there were many things."

"Don't give it to him, except for the utensils of the Qin Dynasty, if you give him gold and silver, he may not take a second look, and if you give it to my dad, he will take a look at it at most and put it away, since you like it, keep it."

"I'll keep it...... This is not good, after all, the meaning of that person to give it to you is obvious, he wants you to give it to Uncle Xiao as a gift. Yun Duruo looked at the horn in his hand and said cherishedly.

"I guess you like this horn, that person is just casually polite, you still take it seriously." I smiled disapprovingly, pointing to the horn. "The horn is for blowing, since you like it, you might as well blow it, I haven't heard the sound of the horn yet."

Yun Duruo's eyes lit up and he stood up happily, put the horn to his mouth and blew it hard, the low horn sound came out of the horn, and spread for a long time in the vast grassland, so thick the horn sounded as if telling a story, telling us with solemnity and vicissitudes.

The quaint sound of the horn made me look sideways, I don't know who once held the horn and sounded, Yun Duruo took the horn from his mouth and couldn't put it down.

"Maybe this horn once commanded thousands of troops, and I really like this horn."

"Then you can keep it and see if you can blow out one or two soldiers in the future." I stood up from the ground with a helpless wry smile, and I was worried about Yun Duruo's body in the cold night of the grassland, so I helped her back to the camp.

As soon as I walked to the door of the tent, I saw Xiao Lianshan standing there alone, looking around with a solemn face, as if he was looking for something.

"Dad, why are you still outside in the cold night?" I walked over and asked sincerely.

"Just now...... Did you hear the trumpet just now...... The sound of a trumpet. Xiao Lianshan looked around with a strange expression. I vaguely hear it. ”

"Uncle Xiao......"

"Dad, you heard me wrong, how can anyone blow the horn here?" I interrupted Yun Duruo's words, looking at her posture, I probably wanted to take out the horn, I think she likes it so much, if I really take it out, I won't be able to ask Xiao Lianshan again.

"Really...... yes, how did that trumpet sound appear here? Xiao Lianshan nodded hesitantly and took his gaze back.

I took off my clothes and draped them on his body, and asked Yun Duruo to rest first, if I have time to be alone with him, I want to accompany Xiao Lianshan to say a few more words.

"Dad, why did you suddenly ask about the trumpet?" I helped him to a grassy knoll.

Xiao Lianshan looked blankly at the night in the distance, his eyes fell into the impenetrable darkness, and he suddenly smiled faintly.

"I used to have a trumpet."

"......" I looked back at Xiao Lianshan in surprise and asked in surprise. Dad, how do you have a horn, how come you never heard you mention it. ”

"Many years ago, when I was about your age, someone once sent me a horn, and whenever that horn sounded......"

"Dad, what happens when the horn is blown?" I saw that Xiao Lianshan stopped halfway through his speech and asked curiously.

Xiao Lianshan didn't speak for a long time, and kept looking into the distance without saying a word, as if his thoughts were stuck in a long memory, and Xiao Lianshan came back to his senses after a long time, and actually smiled helplessly at me.

"I used to be quite majestic, and you won't believe it, but ...... But I don't think that horn will be sounded again. ”

"Dad, look at what you said, in my heart you have always been very majestic." I think Xiao Lianshan suddenly felt a little heroic twilight, and said with relief.

"Hey...... You don't understand it. ”

"Then tell me, why will your trumpet never blow again?" I asked seriously.

Xiao Lianshan fell into a long silence again, and finally sighed heavily, took off the clothes I had put on for him, and put them on me lovingly.

"When you find Genghis Khan's mausoleum, there will inevitably be a fierce battle, promise me! Take care of yourself, and leave me alone if you're in danger. ”

"Dad, what did you say, I promised my mother that I would take care of you." I suddenly found that Xiao Lianshan was really old, and he talked a lot, and he didn't talk like him.

"I've lived most of my life, and I thought I was living through, but now that I think about it, I don't really understand anything." Xiao Lianshan slowly took my hand and said meaningfully. "I used to think that man will win the day, and then I met and after some things and knew what it means to be inviolable, don't blame Dad for suppressing you all these years......"

"Dad, how can I blame you, I know everything you do is for my good." I smiled sincerely.

"When people are old, they talk a lot, so don't bother me." Xiao Lianshan turned around and patted me on the shoulder, and said earnestly. "It's because I didn't live thoroughly, thinking that I could change something on my own, but I couldn't change anything, even he couldn't do it, let alone my ......"

"He? Who is he? I asked, surprised.

"Hey, don't talk about it, you should be able to meet him if you have the chance." Xiao Lianshan shook his head lonely, and suddenly said meaningfully. "When you come back with me, I'm too old to walk and tell you about my youth, I'm sure it will surprise you."

"Are you saying that you and your mother found the Ming Fourteenth Tomb together?" I asked with a faint smile and interest.

"You really think I have that ability, I didn't find the Ming Fourteenth Tomb at all, it's just that someone left it for me and your mother." Xiao Lianshan sighed silently and said in a low voice.

"By the way, last time you took me and Xiaoxiao to see Aunt Li and Aunt Qing, seeing that they are not very old, why can they know so many things?" I suddenly remembered the two women with extraordinary temperament I saw in the Agarwood Pavilion.

"......" Xiao Lianshan hesitated for a moment, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he could see that he didn't intend to tell me, took a deep breath and looked at the night in the distance and said in high spirits. Everything is destined, when I was young, I never dreamed that I would be lucky enough to see the rumored Ming Fourteen Tombs, now you and I were the same age at the time, you and my father and son are going to open the Genghis Khan Mausoleum, I Xiao Lianshan can see two treasures in this life, and there are no regrets in this life. ”

After Xiao Lianshan finished speaking, he looked around with emotion, as if he was waiting and thinking about something, and I only heard his intermittent words.

"I don't know if he's coming......"
