Chapter 174 [No Mercy] (II)
The bright light penetrated from above, illuminating Fukuyama Uji's eyes, and when his eyesight regained slightly, he could immediately see that it was a gap that was wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, and unless his body could be deformed, there was no possibility of passing through this gap at all. This vicious woman calculated every step correctly, and even figured out his psychology, so she was able to successfully put herself in the current predicament.
Fukuyama Uji yelled, "Her death has nothing to do with me, it was Hiraoka Renji who killed her......" For the first time in his life, he was so afraid. The whole thing is completely a trap, there is no Jizhou Ding at all, and Songxue Liangzi set a trap to eradicate himself.
Songxue Ryoko said: "You all have to die!"
Luo Lie was swept down by the rushing and roaring water, but he was not injured, he fell like a slide, through a black hole, and fell into a pool of stagnant water, and the water was actually lit with fire, and some floating objects were burning on it.
Luo Lie immediately judged that this was the toad cave they had first entered, and he never imagined that he would be swept here by the current. By the light of the fire, he found the location of the rock in the waterhole, quickly swam to the rock and climbed up, looked around, and did not find Lan Ximei's figure.
Recalling the scene just now, Lan Ximei's fall into the water was no accident, and Luo Lie even began to suspect that she had deliberately attracted herself here.
It's not far from the exit, where did Lan Ximei go? After jumping into the water to rescue Lan Ximei, what happened above? Luo Lie raised his head and looked at the rushing water, and the current naturally couldn't give an answer. There was a scorching smell in the air, and the scattered floats were all dead corpses of poisonous insects, which were still burning, presumably ignited by someone who had passed through here later.
Leave or go back? This question did not make Luo Lie have any entanglement, he had to go back, because there were still companions trapped on it, Bai Yunfei and Lu Weilin, he had to find them and leave with them.
When Luo Lie was looking for a way to return to the top, he heard a faint voice coming from above: "Luo Hunt ......" The voice was intermittent, but Luo Lie could still tell that it was Lu Weilin calling him. A warmth rose in his heart, and Lu Weilin also did not give up on himself.
Two days later, Zhengyangmen was shrouded in the afterglow of the setting sun, Luo Lie was wearing a black robe and a white civilization hat, he had been waiting here for half an hour, and the reason why he came here was because of an unsigned letter, the letter was sent after Luo Lie left to enter the underground palace of the Old Summer Palace, so when Luo Lie saw this letter, he was already out of trouble.
Although there was no signature, Luo Lie could still deduce from the handwriting and the agreed place that the letter came from Lan Ximei, and there were only two simple poems on the letter - the willow tops on the moon, about after dusk. The date of the payment office is today, and the address is not written, Luo Lie judged that it was Zhengyangmen.
Luo Lie arrived early, and there were many puzzles waiting to be solved in his heart, and the only person who could give the correct answer was Lan Ximei.
Night fell quietly, but Lan Ximei still did not appear, Luo Lie lit the fifth cigarette, and finally saw the little girl selling flowers walking towards him, and the corners of his lips flashed a knowing smile.
The little girl laughed when she saw him, revealing two snow-white front teeth like a little white rabbit: "Hello Mr. Luo!"
Luo Lie nodded, snuffed out the cigarette in time to avoid choking the child, and said gently: "Selling flowers again?"
The little girl sighed very old and said, "The world is hard, and it is not easy to live. ”
Luo Lie smiled and handed over a big ocean, but the little girl didn't answer his big ocean, but handed him the bouquet of flowers: "Someone has given money." ”
Luo Lie took the bouquet of flowers and said with some surprise: "What about people?"
"Gone!"
Luo Lie said again: "What did she say?"
The little girl said, "She said, you can't do without what she gave you." ”
From this sentence alone, Luo Lie can conclude that the flower giver must be Lan Ximei, the corners of his lips can't help but show a helpless smile, take the bouquet of flowers, but feel a little relaxed in his heart, he realized that it was because of the news that Lan Ximei was safe, Luo Lie suddenly found that he still cared about her, at least in his heart and did not want her to suffer accidents.
Lan Ximei's safe escape means that Fukuyama Uji will never have a chance to see the light of day again. People will make different choices at the moment of life and death, some people choose to protect themselves and abandon others, while some people never abandon their companions, and different choices determine their different lives.
Luo Lie still didn't wait for Lan Ximei, but this didn't matter to Luo Lie, he just needed to know the news that Lan Ximei was safe, although Lan Ximei used herself to some extent, but in the end she was still the one who left.
Luo Lie doesn't like hatred, because he has long understood a truth, hating someone will definitely not make you happier.
This was the last night Luo Lie stayed at Zhengjue Temple, and the work here had been completely stopped, and Zhang Changgong and Arnold did not return after the night attack on Yamada Hospital, and went to Mukden as originally planned.
When he returned to Zhengjue Temple, he saw a car parked in front of the door, and Luo Lie recognized the car as Ye Qinghong's at a glance, and he had seen Ye Qinghong drive it.
Before he came to the car, Ye Qinghong had already pushed the car door and walked down.
After not seeing her for many days, Ye Qinghong was a lot haggard, but this did not make her beauty lose points, but added a pitiful taste. I don't know if it's Luo Lie's illusion, I always feel that Ye Qinghong's eyes lack the stubbornness and indifference of the past, and her gaze has softened a lot.
Before Mu Sanshou died, he revealed the place where Ye Qinghong was detained, after they got out of trouble, Lu Weilin went to the rescue as soon as possible, originally he invited Luo Lie to go with him, but Luo Lie still didn't go after thinking about it, and many times it was better not to see each other.
But some are destined to meet.
Ye Qinghong looked at Luo Lie with some resentment, but soon her attention was attracted by the bouquet of flowers in Luo Lie's hand: "Give it to me?" Although she understood that Luo Lie didn't know that she would come.
Luo Lie smiled and handed over the bouquet of flowers in his hand, borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, if Lan Ximei saw the scene in front of her, she would definitely be angry, maybe she would draw a knife and fight to the death with herself.
Ye Qinghong smelled the fragrance of flowers, and then said, "I came here to say goodbye to you today." ”
Luo Lie sighed, he didn't feel particularly surprised, but the news of Ye Qinghong's departure still made him feel faintly lost in his heart. There is a banquet in the world, they came together because of a conspiracy, looking back on the whole thing, each of them is a chess piece, but they are much luckier than Mu Sanshou and others, at least they have survived until now.
Luo Lie pointed inside: "It's better to go in and sit down." ”
Ye Qinghong shook his head: "I don't want to go in...... paused and said: "There is ...... I've sold it here. ”
Luo Lie nodded, Ye Qinghong should have no interest in the secrets of the underground of the Old Summer Palace, maybe she had already understood all of Mu Sanshou's conspiracy.
Ye Qinghong was unhappy with Luo Lie's silence, bit her lip and said, "Don't you ask me where I'm going?"
Luo Lie said: "I was about to ask, is it going back to Europe?" His guess was well-founded, although Mu Sanshou was dead, but the many affairs left behind him had not had time to explain, and Ye Qinghong had to deal with it.
Ye Qinghong sighed and said, "I really can't hide anything from you." In fact, she had doubts in her heart, and she wanted to seek answers from Luo Lie before coming here, but when she saw Luo Lie, she dispelled her thoughts, because she understood that Luo Lie would not tell herself.
Lu Weilin didn't say a word about what happened on this expedition, and maintained a surprising tacit understanding with Luo Lie in this matter.
Luo Lie remembered the sparrow who had gone to Europe a few days ago, she should be on the cruise ship now, it was not a good choice to leave, and now China is full of dangers and cannot give them a stable life.
"What are your plans?"
Luo Lie said: "It's okay to be light, I'm going to go around." ”
Ye Qinghong said: "It's better to ......" Her words were not finished, she wanted to invite Luo Lie to go to Europe with her, but when the words came to her lips, she felt unspeakable.
Luo Lie had already guessed what Ye Qinghong meant from her expression, and said with a smile: "Are you coming back?"
Ye Qinghong felt that her pretty face was a little hot, and replied with extreme certainty: "I'll be back soon, I don't like Europe." ”
Luo Lie nodded.
Ye Qinghong said: "Your remuneration ......"
Luo Lie said: "I didn't help you find the true Seven Treasure Wind Shelter Talisman, and it was useless, so that matter will be stopped from now on." "He's not a money-conscious person, and too much money is just a burden for him.
Ye Qinghong suddenly felt empty in her heart, and for a while she even had the idea of staying in the country, for fear that she would say goodbye to this life and this life. She and Luo Lie started because of a revenge plan, and now that the song is over, they have nothing to do with each other, Ye Qinghong found that she had an inseparable attachment to Luo Lie, but her self-esteem made her unable to confess.
Luo Lie is still friendly to herself, but there is an indescribable politeness in this friendliness, Ye Qinghong is disgusted with this feeling, she finally mustered up the courage to say: "If I am in trouble in the future, will you help me?"
Luo Lie stared at Ye Qinghong quietly, he didn't answer, because he knew that the answer meant a promise, and he also understood what kind of hope this promise would bring to Ye Qinghong, his young life had already carried too much heaviness, and he wanted to live freely in the next few days, and he didn't want to carry too many constraints.
Ye Qinghong nodded, turned around and walked to the car, her nose was sour at the moment of her back, tears were almost about to flow out, she forcibly held back her tears, I don't know when she became so fragile, she didn't shed tears in the days when she was imprisoned by Mu Sanshou, and she didn't shed tears when Lu Weilin went to rescue her, but at this time she couldn't control her emotions.
Luo Lie looked at Ye Qinghong's back, although he couldn't see her face, but he could feel her disappointment and sadness at this time, and the moment Ye Qinghong entered the car, he finally spoke: "I believe I can find you." ”
Ye Qinghong turned around, the night still couldn't hide the tears in her beautiful eyes, she didn't hide it, because she knew that tears were a woman's weapon, and showing weakness in front of her sweetheart would not make her humble: "I will come back!"
Ye Qinghong's departure is to come back better, but Luo Lie's departure is to fulfill a promise in his heart, when he left Pale Mountain, he had already decided that after the matter at hand was over, he would go to Ganbian Ningxia and go there to meet Yan Tianxin, he wanted to thank Yan Tianxin for his grace and take the opportunity to visit Ganbian customs.
Some roads are destined to be walked alone, and a lonely journey can make people calm, but calmness will not allow you to completely heal the scars in your heart.
