Chapter 118: Brother and Sister Reunited
On the official road from Chencang to Weizhou, a horse-drawn carriage was galloping.
There were two people sitting in the trunk.
Bai Yunfei's face was expressionless, unusually cold. Across from him sat a man dressed in black, and the light in the trunk was dim enough, but his face was still covered with a black scarf, revealing only a pair of eyes as sharp as a vulture.
Bai Yunfei stared at the man in black, as if he could see something from his face, but unfortunately the face of the man in black was surrounded by a black scarf, and he didn't even have a single expression.
"You never show your true colors?" Bai Yunfei's voice was also unusually cold.
"Never!" The man in black said in a deep voice, sounding like a middle-aged man.
"I heard you've never missed?" Bai Yunfei's face stretched slightly.
"Of course, those who do our job can't miss, not even once!" The voice of the man in black was also cold.
The tone of the two of them sounded similar, without the slightest emotion.
"Okay, you can take your money and go." Bai Yunfei's eyes had slowly closed, and he seemed tired of saying one more word.
The carriage was still galloping, and suddenly a black shadow flew out of the trunk, and I saw him grasp the wheel with one hand, and take advantage of the momentum to bounce up again, and the carriage galloped past, and the black shadow had landed firmly on the ground.
……
April 16, fine, windy and mild.
"Cloud car" has arrived in Weizhou, Xiao Ding and others found a comfortable inn, Zhou Ziheng instructed Xiao Er to take care of the carriage and horses, prepaid for three days, tomorrow is the new head of the Kongtong faction of the ceremony, this to Kongtong is only more than ten miles away, naturally there is no need to use the carriage and horses.
After a tiring journey, everyone entered the room early after dinner, and they all wanted to sleep comfortably.
Ye Rongqiu's eyelids have been beating non-stop for the past two days, making her inexplicably upset, she is lying in her clothes, but she can't sleep for a long time. April has entered the summer, and the sound of frogs and insects in the middle of the night is the most disturbing dream, especially this inn is still built against the mountain.
Suddenly, she heard a small sound by the window, and then jumped into a grasshopper and landed in front of the bed.
The grasshopper didn't move after it landed, it didn't seem to have any intention of flying away at all, Ye Rongqiu didn't want to care about it, and he couldn't sleep anyway, so he stared at the grasshopper to see when it was going to leave.
The more Ye Rongqiu looked at it, the more wrong it became, she suddenly turned over and got up, and she didn't even have time to put on her shoes, so she pressed the grasshopper in her hand.
It turned out to be a fake grasshopper, woven from a thin-stemmed weed.
Ye Rongqiu's face suddenly changed, she walked to the window lightly, and listened carefully, but there was no sound outside the window. She stared blankly at the "grasshopper" in her hand, stunned, and her thoughts flew far away.
She remembered that they were still in Baiyun City, and her father and mother were still around, and she had a good time every day, once she caught a grasshopper in a tree, and she was reluctant to throw it away, so she took it home and locked it in a box to play, but when she opened it the next day, she found that the grasshopper would not move, and she kept crying. Finally, her brother Ge Ye Tianxun used a thin-stemmed weed to weave several grasshoppers and gave them to her, and she laughed happily.
This secret is known only to the two siblings.
The "grasshopper" in Ye Rongqiu's hand was exactly the same as the one she remembered.
Suddenly, she noticed that there was something in the belly of the "grasshopper" that should not be there, and she hurriedly pulled it out to see that it was a rolled-up note, with few notes and few words.
"See you in the back mountains". There were only those four words on the note.
Ye Rongqiu hurriedly put on his shoes, opened the door gently, and after dodging out, he gently closed the door.
The moonlight on the sixteenth was exceptionally bright, and it was the second watch, and there was no one around.
Ye Rongqiu didn't dare to perform light skills, she was afraid that the sound of the clothes brought up by the strong wind would alarm others, she tiptoed through the corridor, lifted it slightly, and jumped over the wall.
There is a path outside the wall that leads directly to the back mountain, and Ye Rongqiu started his light work, like a white elk under the moonlight, and rushed towards the mountain.
This mountain is not high, not big, the top of the mountain is flat like a platform, there is a hexagonal pavilion on the mountain, Ye Rongqiu also vaguely saw a figure in white clothes like snow standing outside the pavilion, her heart almost jumped out.
Ye Rongqiu stopped five feet away from the man in white, who was facing away from him.
"You're finally here, Qiu'er." The man in white didn't look back, but he could hear his voice trembling.
This call made Ye Rongqiu seem unbelievable, although she was mentally prepared, she was so surprised, she choked, covered her face tightly with her hands, and didn't let herself cry, but the tears had already slipped down her cheeks.
Qiu'er is called this, only her grandmother, father, mother and brother Ye Tianxun will call her like this!
"You, are you really, really a brother?" Ye Rongqiu was so excited that he couldn't speak.
The man in white slowly turned around, looked at her and smiled, "It's really me, Tianxun." ”
Bai Yunfei, this man in white turned out to be Bai Yunfei!
Ye Rongqiu didn't seem surprised, she threw herself into Bai Yunfei's arms, hugged him tightly, "Brother......" called her brother, and she couldn't say anything else.
Bai Yunfei gently patted Ye Rongqiu's shoulder, and two lines of tears slowly flowed out of his indifferent eyes.
Long......
The brother and sister slowly separated, holding hands and sitting in the pavilion.
"It's been eleven years, I thought you were ......" Ye Rongqiu thought of all the bitterness in the past eleven years, and couldn't help but feel sad again.
"You think I'm no longer alive, do you?" Bai Yunfei said with a smile.
"Well, I cried for a long, long time when you were taken away that day. I pray every day that God will bring you back sooner. Ye Rongqiu nodded and said, tears still on his face.
Bai Yunfei gently wiped the tears from her cheeks and smiled: "Didn't I come back, proving that God was moved by your sincerity." He seemed to be natural and calm only when he was talking to Ye Rongqiu, and he would have this kind of warm smile on his face.
"Our brother and sister will never be separated again, right, that day in Hangzhou City, you saw me and suddenly left, I thought I really recognized the wrong person, after all, it has been eleven years, we will all have some changes, but since that day, I have always had a feeling, you must still be alive, I didn't expect it to be you, didn't you recognize me that day?" Ye Rongqiu's mood gradually calmed down, and she talked more, after all, this is her brother who has been separated from the eleventh institute.
"Of course my brother recognized you, but it was inconvenient to talk at the time, and I was too excited, because I didn't expect to be killed, and I suddenly met my long-lost sister." Bai Yunfei actually joked with Ye Rongqiu, and he didn't seem to have laughed so happily for a long time.
Ye Rongqiu suddenly thought of something, she looked at Bai Yunfei's face, and asked seriously, "Is it really you going to take over the Kongtong faction tomorrow?" ”
Bai Yunfei looked at Kongtong Mountain, which was faintly visible in the distance, and said lightly: "Yes, it is really me who takes over as the head of Kongtong." ”
