Chapter 39: The Tracking of the Water Moon (I)
On the mountain road of Daofeng Mountain, where Mo He and the others passed in the afternoon, a man wearing a hat, a black veil covering his face, wearing a wide robe, and carrying two katana swords on his back was walking carefully in the night. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Behind the black veil was a small and thin face, and she looked carefully back and forth, for fear of being discovered by the people who appeared behind or those who were going to chase in front.
This person is Shui Yue, who met Mo He a few days ago.
When I saw a few dark shadows sitting on the ground in the distance, I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart and rested gently against the mountain wall.
The few dark shadows sitting on the ground in front of them were the five of them.
Shui Yue looked at the way several people were chatting, and felt very warm, but the distance was far away, and the other party's voice was deliberately lowered, so she couldn't hear their voices clearly.
Even if she heard them clearly, she couldn't understand what they were saying, and she just wanted to hear the voice of the man with black hair and black eyes with a long iron spear.
Every time she heard that man's voice, Shui Yue's heart felt warm, and if she couldn't hear her, her heart would feel empty.
This feeling had come from the morning seven days earlier, when she had escaped a group of Assassins and entered a forest overnight.
Worried that she would soon be followed, she did not stop and walked alone in the woods.
She had traversed the forest, and was about to look for a way to walk, when she noticed someone resting directly in front of her.
She quickly hid herself, cautiously checking the other party's situation.
A man who looked like a merchant was sitting in a carriage with his horse unmounted for breakfast.
A little girl with blond hair and two cupola ponytails is cooking on a fire, but her attention is focused on the food in the merchant's hands.
A man with short brown hair and a ponytail is waking up a man with dark hair and a linen cloak lying down.
The merchant beckoned the little girl to eat, and the little girl turned her head to ask the black-haired man's opinion.
The little girl went to eat the food given by the merchant, but seemed to want to eat it again.
"Shaanna! That was Mr. Hofdent's last ration. You can't take it again. The black-haired man looked helpless and shouted at the little girl.
Shui Yue noticed the black man's black eyes, and her heart throbbed, and the memories of her childhood instantly poured out, filling her entire mind.
When she was a child, she was always bullied by other children because she was a girl. The girls of the Water Moon Country have been bullied by everyone since they were children, except for her mother, who comforts and cares for her, no one else cares about her life or death.
No one looks at her squarely, they just think of her as a stray wild dog on the street, and sometimes even worse than a stray wild dog.
But once, she was chased and beaten by a group of boys who used her as a training object with a wooden knife.
She was knocked to the ground, her head curled and trembling with her hands on her bloodied head.
"Stop!" Suddenly, a boy's voice rang out.
The child who was beating her didn't move, and then the fight, the crying, and finally the surroundings fell silent.
"It's all right! I've all chased them away. The boy's voice was close at hand, and he was crouching beside him.
She hesitantly let go of the hand holding her head, wanting to sneak a peek at the boy who was talking to her.
As a result, I saw a pair of big black eyes staring at me......
It's those eyes, the same eyes as they are.
Since avenging her mother's revenge, she has long lost much nostalgia for life in her heart, but the assassins have been chasing her, and she has followed her instinct to run away and kill the other party.
This glance instantly shattered the ice wall in the heart of the frozen water moon, and it turned out that there were still such warm eyes.
She knew that this person was definitely not the boy she was back then, but that glance made her whole person wake up from her chaotic escape life.
She stared eagerly at the dark-haired man, only to see his attention and warn.
Afraid of being discovered, Shui Yue hurriedly hid in the bushes and did not dare to move.
After a while, she heard the sound of the other horse's carriage leaving, so she waited a little longer, estimating that the other party had gone far before she came out of the bushes.
Since then, her heart has been feeling empty.
When she found herself in the direction of the other party's departure, she finally understood, because her heart had been taken away by the black-haired man.
Soon at noon, she caught up with them, and saw them resting with the rest of the group in the distance.
The feeling of emptiness finally stopped, but then there was a feeling of panic, she knew that the black-haired man was looking at herself, and it was okay for others to stare at her, but the black-haired man's eyes were staring at her, and she was both happy and scared in her heart, and finally couldn't help but look at each other through the black veil that covered her face.
As a result, the black-haired man found his gaze again, showed an apologetic expression, and then looked away.
At that moment, there was a trace of loss in her heart, but then she felt satisfied, at least she could see him next to her, didn't she?
After following all the way to the gate of a city, Shui Yue knew that he would ask for money to go in.
However, she had no money, and the clothes and hats on her body were all stripped from the assassins who were chasing her, and occasionally she would find some money, but they were all exchanged for food in the villages and towns she passed by.
So she hid aside for the time being, and when a nobleman entered the city, she quietly hid under the carriage and followed the carriage into the city.
After she entered the city, she had long been unable to see Mo Hehe's figure.
She doesn't know how to speak the language of the country, she can't even speak the continental lingua franca, she can only understand a few simple continental lingua franca, the city is so big, there are so many shops, hotels and bars, she can't communicate with people, so she can't know where Mohe went and which building they entered.
That night, she ran around frantically, climbing onto the rooftops of several tall buildings to look around.
No, nothing, although the city is very bustling at night, but in her eyes the city is so deserted, without seeing him, everything in the city is meaningless to her.
She felt cold and crouched down. She felt helpless, holding her legs in her hands, she felt so sad that she buried her head between her legs and cried.
Tired, she curled up and slept on the roof of a three-story building with a phoenix feather on its sign.
When Suzuki woke up, the sun was already high.
The warm sunlight didn't make her feel warm, she only felt cold, her heart pierced a hole, and the wind was passing through the hole and through.
She forgot her hunger and thirst, and sat on the roof in a daze, watching the passers-by below.
In her heart, she prayed to the gods of the Shuiyun Kingdom who she once hated, praying that she would see that person again, even if she gave her own life.
It's a pity that the gods of the Water Cloud Country didn't fulfill Shui Yue's wish, and Shui Yue sat until noon and didn't see that familiar figure.
The thunder in her stomach and the discomfort in her throat reminded her that she had to find some food and water.
These are not a problem for the usual water moon, and you can get food by sneaking into a kitchen casually.
She refused to eat and drink, she closed her eyes and sat cross-legged on the roof of Fengyu's bar, intending to end her meaningless life by going on a hunger strike.
The sounds around him gradually blurred, and he could only hear his own breathing, and his heart was so empty, there was nothing there.
There was a bang, not far away.
Shui Yue was startled by this sound and opened his eyes, and then he saw a white cold air in the sky two streets away.
The explosion was supposed to be there, and the patrols around heard it and headed that way.
Looking at the way the patrolmen were desperately running towards the sound, Shui Yue suddenly felt so embarrassed.
These patrolmen are supposed to patrol the streets all year round, and will run desperately to check whenever there is a sound.
What about himself? But he gave up after only one night, and couldn't he chase after the sound like these patrolmen? Can't he keep chasing this man with black hair and black eyes and a shining silver iron spear?
Shui Yue stood up against the wall, she made up her mind to pay attention, she would track down this man in this life, as long as there was a person with black hair and black eyes holding a silver iron gun, she would chase him, and one day she would find him, the person who made her feel that her heart was no longer empty.
