Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, the bright moon hangs high, and the streets of large and small towns are lit up at dusk, looking forward to the reunion of relatives from afar. And in the distant Cangyang, the cold and iron-black city is still bleak and deserted.

In an exquisite courtyard in the city, a woman in a gorgeous long dress lies on a couch, her black hair scattered like a waterfall and falls to the ground. The woman was extremely enchanting, with phoenix eyes and willow eyebrows, and a touch of cinnabar on her forehead, only to see her stretch out her green and jade hand, pick up the wine on the small table in front of her, take a sip, and then cover the red and glamorous little mouth with her long sleeves, eating and smiling.

In front of the small case where the wine is put is a cherry tree with fallen flowers, and there is a man under the tree, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, very heroic. However, the man didn't seem to be in such a good mood, even in the face of such a beautiful woman, he had no intention of drinking, and his eyes were full of sadness.

"What's the matter, the slave's wine doesn't taste good today?" There was a laziness in the woman's voice, and the crispy people's bones were about to be soft.

"The second child is dead. There's a mess going on in Raven Ridge. ”

"Oh, your little Crow's Ridge is still being targeted, why don't you go and see it with you?" the woman smiled indifferently, but there was a look of concern in her eyes.

When the man heard the woman's concern, his heart warmed slightly, and he shook his head and said, "No need, if that adult finds out about your relationship with me, probably we will both die." ”

The woman lightly covered her red lips, and there was indescribable flattery in her eyes.

"Who doesn't know this Gray Stone City, Lord Chaohu's favorite thing is the slave family, if he finds out that you, a bad boy, drink here in the slave family every once in a while, I'm afraid you're going to be unlucky, but the slave family has nothing to do. ”

The man smiled and stopped answering, and the courtyard fell silent.

The woman seemed to feel a little sleepy, yawned lightly, and said, "The slave family will not keep you anymore, go and have a look, and act carefully." You're not your brother, you can't win and run faster than anyone else. If you are really defeated, you can remember to keep your little life, if you die, but no one will drink with the slave family, and the slave family will be bored for a while. ”

"Don't worry, you can't die. The man nodded, his figure blending into the night......

Two days later, on an ordinary night, Yongye, who had been in a coma for several days, opened his eyes, and the first thing that caught his eye was the bright moon in the sky, and then there was a sharp pain all over his body.

"Not dead?" Eternal Night subconsciously raised his hand and touched his chest, and the fist-sized hole was healed, replaced by a hideous scar.

Eternal Night quickly adjusted to the pervasive pain in his body, and when he got up, he found that his hands, feet, waist and abdomen were covered with bandages, and he was surrounded by sleeping wounded and soldiers, and the adjutant was lying on the ground, snoring like thunder.

On the small slope not far away, there was a young girl who was looking up at the moon in the sky.

The girl, naturally, is the daughter of the mayor of the town. Eternal Night hesitated for a moment and walked over.

"Where is this?" Eternal Night's voice startled the girl, and when the girl turned her head and saw that it was Eternal Night, she became even more nervous.

"It's a ...... blocking the mountain"

"Blocking the mountain?" "Yongye then asked, "You can return to Shuanglian Town in half a day at the speed of the march, how can you go around such a big circle, delay for four or five days, and run to the blocking mountain?"

"Because ....." The girl looked at the eternal night with some fear, and did not dare to say the reason, a pair of big watery eyes flickered, which was endearing.

But Yongye never paid attention to this, he took the girl's words and said: "Because you want to take me, the marching speed is too slow, and I was even outflanked by the pursuers of the Raven Ridge, and I had no choice but to flee to the mountain, wanting to go around in a circle and return to Shuanglian Town." ”

The girl lowered her head, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

"Why don't you throw me away, you're a bunch of idiots. Eternal Night cursed, and his eyes fell on the girl's body.

The girl in front of her washed away the dirt on her face, and she was unexpectedly clean and beautiful, especially the pair of big eyes, which were very eye-catching. Now she looked at the eternal night, a little scared, a little curious, and a little ...... I can't tell what it means.

This kind of meaning makes Eternal Night very uncomfortable.

"What's your name?" Eternal Night wanted to say something to distract the girl, but as soon as she said it, she realized that she had asked a very unreasonable question.

Because the girl in front of him heard this question, she was obviously unprepared, and her face quickly flushed. The girl lowered her head and replied in a very small voice, "Ruonan." ”

"Oh. Eternal Night answered, and then there was no more.

The girl named Ruonan still had her head down, and she had waited for a long time and had not heard anything more from Eternal Night, so she quietly looked up and found Eternal Night sitting beside her, looking at the rolling mountains in the distance. Like the water and moonlight shining on the angular face of the eternal night, it made him look much softer, and those black eyes were no longer breathtaking.

After thinking for a long time, Ruonan grabbed the corner of his clothes and asked in a low voice, "This general, I don't know your name yet." ”

"Eternal Night, besides, I'm not a general, I'm a centurion. ”

Eternal Night's answer is very realistic, and it is also very unkind, in the military system of the Sunset Empire, only partial generals and above military ranks will be called generals, and partial generals, at least the cultivation of the middle realm of the world.

Ruonan nodded lightly and said softly, "Thank you, Lord Eternal Night, for saving your life." ”

"Don't thank me, thank me, you go and thank the dead warriors. Eternal Night withdrew his gaze from the distance, and glanced at Ruonan with some coldness, and Ruonan's face also darkened significantly.

"How many of us died this time because of your stupidity. Go back and tell your town elder that the fifty taels of gold should be the burial expenses of the deceased, and if he dares to give one less, I will stab him in half, and then hang it on the official road to feed the wild dogs. Yongye's tone was rarely angry, Ruonan heard this, and his face turned pale with fright, thinking about the weak father in his family who was born in the imperial examination, where was the opponent of these soldiers, and thinking that his father, who had always been very fond of him, because of the trouble he had caused, I don't know what kind of work and anxiety had become, his nose was sore, and a layer of mist surged up in his big eyes that seemed to be able to speak, and he actually cried "woo" beside Yongye.

This cry reminded the already ugly face of Eternal Night a lot..... Headache stuff.

For example, it was not easy to get rid of it, the little tigress in the yard who looked at him every day and liked to cry and coquettish......

"I ..... Don't cry. Eternal Night looked at Ruonan, who was crying more and more sadly, and felt that not only was his whole body aching, but even his head was about to explode.

The answer to the eternal night is a cry that grows louder and louder.

"Why don't you rest your head on my shoulder, and it will feel better?" Eternal Night's words were abrupt and laborious, as if he had gritted his teeth.

Ruonan stopped crying, and looked at Yongye with some surprise with her big red and swollen eyes, who sat there straight, staring at the mountains in the distance that had long been integrated into the night with a serious face, not knowing what to think.

Eternal Night is thinking, but don't lean in.

Then, his shoulders sank, and the unique scent of the girl's body came, and there were a few strands of dishonest hair, which tickled his face.

The face of the eternal night changed from black to white, from white to red, from red to purple, and from purple to black. In the end, she can only helplessly comfort herself, as long as she doesn't cry, she will do the rest. Ruonan's psychology is even more subtle, thinking that the young man in front of him is indifferent on the outside, but he is a little considerate on the inside, and he doesn't hate himself as much as he appears.

Ruonan rested his head on the shoulder of Eternal Night, and neither of them spoke, but looked ahead in tacit understanding, but it was clear that their minds were not on the scenery in front of them.

After leaning on it for a long time, Ruonan naturally changed to a slightly comfortable position, but the body of Yongye beside him suddenly tensed.

"What's wrong?" asked Ruonan curiously.

After a while, Yongye squeezed out one word, "It hurts." ”

Ruonan was shocked to realize that he was pressing the wound of the eternal night, and said nervously: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”

Eternal Night shook her head, feeling powerless.

Suddenly, Ruonan remembered something and asked, "Does your hand still hurt?"

Eternal Night felt that the wounds in other parts of his body were obviously much more serious than the knife wound on his hand, so he replied, "It doesn't hurt." ”

Ruonan was slightly surprised, but his heart was even more moved, guessing that because this injury was for himself, he wouldn't feel pain. So in the eyes that looked at the eternal night, the inexplicable meaning was even stronger. Then her thoughts turned, and she thought of the man who said that he would take care of her all her life a few days ago, and after tricking her to Cangyang, he showed his original hideous face, and her heart was sad, and tears were about to gush out.

Yongye looked at the girl who was about to be normal and cried again for some reason, and suddenly her head grew bigger, so she imitated the tone of her second senior brother on weekdays, and said with a stiff face: "Don't cry, I'll tell you a story." ”

"Poof", Ruonan burst into tears and laughed.

Yongye was stunned for a moment, and asked strangely, "Why do you all laugh when I tell a story?" ”

"We?" Wakanan wrinkled his nose with an inquiring look in his eyes.

"Yes, so is my little sister, as soon as I said I wanted to tell a story, she couldn't stop laughing before I even started telling it. ”

"You still have a little junior sister, what does she have to do with you?" Ruonan visibly became alert, like a kitten that smelled danger.

Yongye was even more strange, first wondering that the focus of what he had just said didn't seem to be the little junior sister, and then wondering that since he said that it was his little junior sister, of course it was the relationship between the senior brother and sister, how could this kind of question be answered.

I didn't know how to answer, so Eternal Night didn't answer, and Ruonan saw that Eternal Night didn't mean to continue to explain, so she pouted and slammed her head on Eternal Night's shoulder.

Unconsciously, a beam of light pierced the eastern sky, and the sky finally glowed with a touch of fish belly white. The subordinates of the eternal night woke up one after another, rubbing their sleepy eyes, and were surprised to find their commander sitting on the hillside, leaning against a young girl on his shoulder, so they looked at each other, thinking about whether they should wake up or not.

Yongye looked at the rising sun, frowned and pushed the sleeping girl on her shoulder, then got up, kicked the adjutant who was snoring "seriously" on the ground, and said expressionlessly: "Don't pretend, get up, I want to return to Shuanglian Town today." ”

The adjutant smiled wryly, patted the ashes off his body, and turned back and shouted for the team to pack up and set off.

The uncle, who had been in a coma for several days, woke up, and everyone silently thought in their hearts to be cautious, so as not to touch his moldy head on the first day.

Yongye looked around, as always, and said plainly: "The environment around the camp has not been cleaned up, and there are snakes and insects, which is not good for the wounded, and no one is sentry at night, if the enemy comes, we don't know how to die, the most important thing is that we are retreating, and the whole army will not wake up until midnight, and there is no military style at all." Full penalty of one month's salary. ”

There was a constant wailing in the mountains.

Eternal night deaf to deaf ears.

The girl in the morning light coiled up her long hair and glanced at Yongye suspiciously, thinking that it would be better to see the little junior sister with her own eyes in the future......
