Chapter 83 [Father of the Beast]
The man only ran with a mule and horse for a while, then grabbed the reins, got off the horse, and walked away with Ye Junyi in his arms.
The medicine that this person gave to Ye Junyi was not heavy, her consciousness did not disappear completely, and after walking for a while, she tried to open her eyes, only to see that this person was actually walking in an orange forest, she remembered that the last time Mama Li's coffin was placed in an orange forest in the mansion.
This person seemed to be very familiar with these roads, and walked quickly with her in his arms.
After walking for less than a cup of tea, I arrived in the thatched hut where Mama Li put the coffin last time. At this time, the sky was already white, and the man put Ye Junyi on the ground, she looked at this person with wide eyes, and saw that he was dressed in a black short coat with a black cloth covering his head. When the man saw her looking at him, he ignored him, and quickly moved away from the stove in the house, revealing a hole in it. He hugged Ye Junyi and got in, fired a cracker, and sealed the tunnel entrance.
The man in black walked in the dark tunnel with his shoulder against Ye Junyi, and when Ye Junyi was about to fall asleep, he finally stopped, opened a stone door, and walked in.
Ye Junyi was put down by him, and saw that he made another fire and lit up the two big oil lamps on the wall.
"Cloud-Male-Son"
Ye Junyi held back a mosquito-like sound from her throat, the man in black listened, paused, took out a small bottle from her pocket, opened it and put it on Ye Junyi's nose and smelled it a few times, her mind suddenly cleared up, and her hands and feet could move.
"Ahem," she choked a few times, felt her breathing a lot easier, took a deep breath, sat up, and looked at the man in black, "Yun Gongzi, what kind of place is this?" β
"Miss Ye, how do you know it's down?" The man in black turned his back to her and made a hoarse voice.
"That ....." Ye Junyi was born with a sensitive nose, she could smell the smell emanating from him, but it didn't seem to be ...... to say it, "Ahem, that, oh, Yun Gongzi, you seem to be familiar with the terrain here."
"Hmph, how can it be unripe," Yun Gongqiu said in a low voice, "I grew up here, this orange slope, I used to play here when I was a child, how could it not be ripe." β
When Ye Junyi heard this, he suddenly remembered that Xu Ziqian said that Yun Jie was the daughter of Mu Wangye, and this Jingguo Marquis was Mu Wangfu.
"Oh," Ye Junyi stood up and moved his hands and feet, "I heard my marquis mention it before, this Yasukuni Mansion was originally your home, I forgot." β
"No, that's not my home!" Yun Gong Qiu suddenly turned around and said excitedly, "When you first went down the tunnel, did you see those grass huts?" That's where I lived as a kid, and even, even sometimes, I stayed here, in this dark place. β
"Huh?" Ye Junyi was a little stunned, "You, aren't you Yun Jieyu's own brother?" β
"Hmph," Yun Gong Qiu smiled bitterly, "My mother is the concubine of Lord Mu. When she was pregnant with me, Princess Mu rushed here to guard the orange slope. Xu Houye wanted to tell you that Yun Jie is the only daughter of Mu Wangye. No one in this world knows that my mother and son exist. β
"Huh?" Ye Junyi was surprised, "Then Prince Mu doesn't care about your mother and son?" β
"Hehe," Yun Gongqiu let out a bitter chuckle from his throat, "Anyway, it doesn't matter." He was very afraid of Princess Mu, but he often came and came when she was away, and ......"
"Really?" Seeing him so sad, Ye Junyi comforted, "Since he often comes to take care of you, it means that he has your mother and son in his heart." β
"Caretake? Hehe," Yun Gongqiu heard her words, but he made a series of whimpering sounds, as if laughing instead of crying, "Yes, he often comes, in front of me, that is, to do that beastly thing to her mother......"
"How could heβhow could he!" Ye Junyi was shocked, she could see his sadness and helplessness from Yun Gongqiu's sadness at this time, and she whimpered when she spoke.
"Once, I pounced, grabbed his leg and bit him hard, he kicked me to the ground, and then pounced on me and continued to kick me," at this time, Yun Gongqiu fell into the memories of the past, "My mother saw it, grabbed him like crazy, and kept begging him, but he didn't show mercy, kicked me, and beat my mother well, almost beat my mother and son to death on the spot, and then, then, he, he continued to bully my mother, my mother was tortured to death, and he left her to leave." β
"It's unbelievable that there is such a father and such a husband in the world." Ye Junyi whimpered and sighed, "Then, what happened to your mother and son later?" β
"Hmph," Yun Gongqiu showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, "Later, the jealous Princess Mu came, she originally listened to the maid's report to catch the adulterer, but it was too late, and King Mu had already left." When they saw my mother and son, they had them throw us into the tunnel, lock us up, and starve us to death. β
"What a well-matched black-hearted couple!" Ye Junyi shook his head with a sigh, "Then what happened later, Yun Gongzi, what happened to your mother and son?" β
"Later?" Yun Gongqiu walked to Ye Junyi's side and sat down, that was where she had just laid, "Our mother and son hugged each other here, I cried and cried out for pain and hunger, and my mother held me tightly in her arms and kept singing a little song to me:
Green stone slabs, long streets.
An old wooden building, a wide shop.
The flaming red lantern hangs high.
Glutinous sugar gourd, lively and fresh!
The shopkeeper's abacus, yellowed smoke.
......
That little song was really good, and I fell asleep when I listened to it. When I woke up, I was sleeping on a large, warm bed. It was my two older sisters who saved me, and I haven't seen my mother since. It wasn't until a few days ago that Sister Xin'er reunited with me, and Fang told me that at that time, my mother covered me with all her clothes and fed me with her blood, so that I could survive. β
"She's a good mother," Ye Junyi comforted him, "she just needs you to live well in this world." β
"Yes, after my sisters rescued me and came back, they never mentioned my mother, in fact, I thought in my heart that my mother must be more than lucky." Yun Gong Qiu took off the hood on his face and lay down slowly, "In the past, no matter what happened to my mother, she never complained about it, and she always had a smiling face. She often said to Yes that in this world, the name is empty, so why bother to fight with others; Life is short, fighting and winning are just a cup of loess in the end. Since I survived that time, I have lived with her words, even if King Mu's mansion was copied, King Mu was investigated, and I was hunted down by the imperial court, I never moved half of my heart to fight with others. β
"And now?" Ye Junyi walked up to him and asked, "Why did you have the heart of fighting?" Do you want to avenge King Mu? β
"Revenge for him? Haha......" Yun Gong Qiu laughed wildly, rested for a long time, put his face on the ground, and said, "I heard Sister Xin'er talk about my mother a few days ago, and I just came back here. Mother, she is still here, waiting for me where I am lying now. β
When Ye Junyi heard this, he was horrified! Taking a few steps back, she looked around in fear, there was a smell of rotting corpses in this secret room, and she thought it was the smell of the basement.
"Heh," Yun Gongqiu sat up, "Miss Ye, don't be afraid, I took her out a few days ago to settle her." β
"Oh." Of course, she wasn't afraid of corpses, but it had been a long time since ancient times, and she always felt an eerie feeling here, so she shrunk her head into her clothes and tightened them.
"Is it cold? Miss Ye. Yun Gongqiu stood up, "I'll take you out if I'm cold." We've been here for a while, and Mother has seen you, and she hasn't spoken, thinking that you're a really good, very good woman. β
"Huh?" Ye Junyi felt that these words were strange, and in a blink of an eye, he looked at the dark secret room again, and the chill on his body deepened a little, "Yun, Yun Gongzi, your mother has been gone for a long time, don't you miss her anymore." β
"The girl is right," Yun Gong Qiu has returned to his polite appearance at the beginning, "It's really a little cold here, let's go out." β
So saying, he took a torch and walked out first.
Ye Junyi followed closely behind him, her eyes kept glancing around, she didn't take two steps, she suddenly wanted to leave, she was a doctor in the 21st century, in the past few days, she forgot the previous education, and actually believed that there were ghosts in this world? This cloud palace is stimulated, some nerves are not normal, what are you afraid of? She despises herself now.
In Ye Junyi's thoughts, Yun Gong Qiu had already turned out of the secret room, and the firelight weakened suddenly, suddenly, she seemed to feel that something in front of her shook for a while, and looked up to the front, but there was nothing to see, and Bian Yun Gong Qiu was gone, and the residual firelight was getting weaker and weaker. She scolded herself and hurried to keep up, but her eyes involuntarily glanced behind her hurriedly.
"Ahh
There's a huge shadow on the wall behind you!
Forbidden woman!
There's a face in the hair on the wall!
She screamed in fright, and immediately turned and ran forward.
"Miss Ye, Miss Ye, you are going in the wrong direction, come back, come back!" Yun Gongqiu was walking in front, and suddenly heard Ye Junyi's crazy footsteps, turned his head to look, but saw her running desperately in a different direction from himself, and couldn't help but be in a hurry, and hurriedly chased forward.
Ye Junyi, who was frightened, could hear what Yun Gong Qiu was shouting, in the dark, she rushed forward desperately, Yun Gong Qiu's voice came from the tunnel, but it increased her fear even more - there is really a forbidden woman in this world!
