Chapter XXXVIII
After a night of rain, the weather suddenly became much colder, the sun was very soft at dawn, there were a few hints of cicada-like clouds in the clear blue sky, and the maple leaves on both sides of the trail were blown off by the wind.
Lin Yunmo locked himself in Qianshan Dusk's room and didn't go out for a day and a night, Bai Xiyu was very worried, made a few side dishes that he liked to eat on weekdays, and went to the ink garden.
When Li Ji saw Bai Xiyu, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "How is Mo'er?" Bai Xiyu asked in a low voice, Li Ji shook his head helplessly.
Bai Xiyu pushed the door and walked in, the sun shone on the auspicious cloud pattern brocade carpet, the fine dust danced wantonly in the warm light, but the place where the sun couldn't shine was dark and gloomy, and Lin Yunmo was sitting in front of the twilight makeup of the thousand mountains.
"Mo'er!" Bai Xiyu shouted worriedly, walked to the table, and put the food box in his hand on the table.
"Is there something wrong? Lin Yunmo asked in a hoarse voice, and in the darkness he exuded a coldness that was thousands of miles away.
Bai Xiyu sat down on the stool in front of the table, and her heart ached, "You have been in the girl's house for a day and a night, and you don't eat or drink, do you know that your mother is worried about you!" After a pause, she then comforted: "My mother made some side dishes that you like to eat, you can eat a little more!"
Lin Yunmo was silent for a long time before saying, "Mother, I'm really not hungry and don't want to eat!"
"The girl's mother is also very sad, if you want to cry, cry happily, such a lost soul, my mother is really uncomfortable to watch!" Bai Xiyu's heart was sour, with tears in her eyes, for so many years, she has always regarded Lin Yunmo as her own, and she has paid far more effort than her own son Lin Feng.
In the darkness, Lin Yunmo finally stood up, he slowly walked to Bai Xiyu, his face was haggard, full of sadness and despair, those originally bright eyes were full of bloodshot at the moment, kneeling in front of Bai Xiyu's knees and crying: "It's all my fault, I didn't protect her well, I, I'll never see her again, mother, tell me, how can I not think about her?"
Bai Xiyu couldn't help but cry when she saw his heartbroken and sad appearance: "Child, she has no chance with you after all...!"
The sunset is about to set in the west, the sky is covered with a golden sunset, Chang Gung Star flashes with a cold light is already in the western sky, Lin Yunmo walked out of the house of Qianshan Dusk, the roses wrapped around the flower wall are gradually withering, but there is still a faint fragrance of flowers floating in the air, he holds the pearl flowers that were once given to Qianshan Dusk in his hand, and looks gloomily at the sunset fading away, and the gloom is shrouded.
"Master!" Li Ji stepped forward, seeing Lin Yunmo's thin cheeks and painful appearance, he couldn't bear to continue.
"How?" Lin Yunmo looked at Li Ji with a hint of expectation.
"Our people searched until the bottom of the cliff and found nothing, and further down, it was... It's a sinkhole!" Li Jiyi said through gritted teeth.
Hearing this, Lin Yunmo's heart sank suddenly, the heart-rending pain spread boundlessly, the hand holding the bead flower tightened violently, and the jade petals on the bead flower were like sharp blades, piercing deeply into his palm, and blood dripping to the ground along his fingers.
"Master..."Li Ji was shocked, "Go and look for it again, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death!" Lin Yunmo covered his hand and commanded in a cold voice.
When Duan Zhijun took the dragon and phoenix jade pendant to Lin Yunmo, it was already half a month later, and Qianshan Twilight was still uncertain about life and death, Lin Yunmo looked at the jade pendant in a daze for a long time, and tied it back to his waist without saying a word.
Duan Zhijun quietly looked at Lin Yunmo, since the accident of Qianshan Dusk, Lin Yunmo's temperament has become more ruthless and cold-blooded, and he is silent, Su Wenya has suffered a catastrophe because of this, and was thrown into Yixiang Building by people who were stunned, and was played with by a group of beggars who took turns to be drugged. This scene was seen by Lin Feng, the prince who came looking for her, and after returning to the house with shame and anger, he immediately took a letter of resignation, and completely swept Su Wenya out of the mansion.
In the early autumn, the weather began to cool a little sooner or later, this is an eventful autumn, the northern neighbor of the North Underworld without warning on the border of as many as 200,000 soldiers, the border town of Geumcheon is eyeing the border town of Geumcheon, the war is about to break out, Qizhou is already in danger.
Weizong has succeeded to the throne for many years, has always been peaceful, the sudden emergency war report made him panic, weighing in three, he decided to send Duan Wang Lin Shuo in command, the third prince Lin Qianmo as the general three days later to the border of Qizhou.
Gong Jin left after announcing the holy decree, Princess Duan Bai Xiyu frowned even more with the heavy holy decree, Lin Yunmo had never been on the battlefield, I don't know what Wei Zong'an's heart was, but Lin Shuo said disapprerovingly: "With this king here, Xiyu don't worry!" Bai Xiyu said: "The prince should also take care, this holy decree came too suddenly, I was not prepared at all." Lin Shuo smiled and patted her hand and said, "Don't worry, this king and Mo'er will return safely!"
Before Lin Yunmo walked to the Mo Garden, Li Ji suddenly ran over with a greeting post, and said in a low voice: "Master, Yu Bo, the lord of Tianyu Country, didn't want to see you!", Lin Yunmo took the post with a gloomy face, and said after a while: "Let him come to the Mo Garden." ”
Li Ji led Yu Bowei into the Duanwang Mansion through the side door, Li Ji quietly looked at Yu Bowei, the lord of this Tianyu country, he was tall and generous, with three wisps of beard, a pair of black eyes full of calculation, a regular clothes with his hands behind his back, and seemed to be walking leisurely on the gravel path. When the Northern Underworld was about to start a war, he learned that his opportunity had come, especially after learning about the Holy Decree, he couldn't sit still. He had seen Lin Yunmo many years ago, and the mage beside him at that time had said that it was unspeakably precious, so he remembered it in his heart, and only then did he come up with the idea of the second princess Yulanqiong crying in the palace and recognizing King Duan as her father-in-law, and his ultimate goal was Lin Yunmo.
Uncle Yu didn't arrive at Moyuan, after some greetings, Lin Yunmo asked bluntly: "Why did the Lord of the Jade Kingdom come, please speak up!", Uncle Yu laughed and said: "Your Royal Highness is really refreshing, the old man came to Moyuan today to make a deal with His Highness!
Lin Yunmo glanced at him coldly, and said coldly: "Tell me about it!"
Yu Bowei's eyes rolled and said: "Your Highness is about to go on the expedition, the little girl Lan Qiong is not talented, and she is willing to be a maid who serves with the army!"
"What if I don't agree!" Lin Yunmo said coldly.
"You will agree, because the old man knows the whereabouts of that woman!" Yu Bowei smiled like a fox.
