08 Gloomy heartbreak
"What's next for you?" Chengfeng was very worried about Jielan going deep into the tiger's den, afraid that she would make some dangerous moves, and then let herself be in prison.
"I remember that the two women just now mentioned that Heimu County was building a cemetery on a large scale, saying that it was built for the ancestors, and the previous prince of Heimu County has been dead for nearly ten years, why do they plan to rebuild the cemetery here, and they are still so excited, not to mention that it is a very disrespectful thing to move the remains of the ancestors, why is he so rash, so I think there must be something wrong with this, I have to find out." Jielan is not afraid of anything, she just wants to find out as soon as possible whether Heimu County has the heart of rebellion, if there are troops, and whether there is an alliance, because since the city lord of Jin Xuan intercepted the letter, indicating that someone is contacting them, then it is very likely that other cities and counties have reached an alliance with them and are ready to attack the royal city, if it is really as Jielan expected, then this war must be a cruel and difficult war.
"I want to go to the cemetery and explore, whether it's as I think or not, I have to know what is going on." Jielan knew the danger, but she didn't hesitate.
"Do you know who you are now, and if you get found out there, what will happen to you?" Chengfeng frowned, because he knew that even if he persuaded her, he might not be able to persuade her.
And sure enough, Jielan said categorically: "I have decided, since I have come here, I must complete what I have to do, whether it is dangerous or will be discovered, I must go." Jielan's resolute words had already made Chengfeng abandon even the idea of persuasion.
Chengfeng saw that Jielan's attitude was so resolute, so he no longer persuaded him, and only said: "Since I have come to this Heimu County, then I will accompany you for a while, but when you get there, you must not come nonsense, otherwise, I will forcibly take you back to the royal court." ”
Seeing Chengfeng's serious appearance, Jielan felt a little funny, and only said: "Don't worry, I will behave in a proper manner, do you want to prepare some dinner for you, I'm afraid you will be hungry all the way." ”
"No need, you can rest, I'll be outside guard." After Chengfeng finished speaking, he went out of the house, closed the door himself, and then leaned against the door, guarding there like a door god.
Watching his slender figure being reflected by the light on the door frame, Jielan's heart actually throbbed a little, she always remembered that during her journey from Chiyan City to Wangcheng, Chengfeng was silently guarding the side every night, and every time before going to bed, as long as she could see his figure, no matter what kind of danger she was in, she would feel extremely at ease, and she would always feel that no matter what happened, as long as he was there, everything would not exist.
For some reason, the corners of Jielan's mouth couldn't help but show a comfortable smile, and the originally restless mood actually became unusually calm, she liked this feeling, and she also wanted to go on like this.
Jielan took Qi Xue's hand beside her and said, "Let's rest, otherwise we will be listless tomorrow." Then they got into bed and lay down to rest.
Although the black pig was also indoors, it was still rude to watch Jielan go to bed, he turned his back and sat on a wicker chair, with his back to Jielan and them, and then sat cross-legged, ready to guard them indoors.
Jielan looked at the two people she trusted the most, one inside and one outside, and there was a trace of sweetness flowing in her heart, she thought that tonight's dream would be unusually beautiful.
The night is like a lotus, in this noisy and lively place, Chengfeng is still firmly outside the door, guarding the woman he wants to protect the most, during this time, the accumulated lovesickness and worry finally retreated at this moment, but when he saw the man who was still drunk in the hall, the worry in his heart was even stronger, he couldn't help sighing, and suddenly understood that even if the two of them were close at hand, if they didn't have the heart, they seemed to be far away from the world.
When Tianling saw Chengfeng guarding in front of Jielan's door, they thought it was the person who came to kill Jielan, and immediately ran over, all secretly lucked spiritual power, and wanted to do something with Chengfeng.
Ling Tian was calmer and asked, "I don't know who you are?" Why are you here? ”
Chengfeng didn't know who these two people were, thinking that they were just disciples who came to have fun, so he felt that he didn't need to talk to these two about Jielan, so he turned his face sideways, looking cold and silent, and didn't take the other party in his eyes.
Seeing this person's arrogant appearance, Xuan Yin was even more angry, and worried that he was a master sent by his father, so he said: "Show your identity, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind to you." ”
Chengfeng saw that the two wanted to entangle, so he said coldly: "Before annoying me, I advise you to leave." ”
Xuan Yin and Tian Ling felt both a little awe and a little annoyed by Chengfeng's compelling momentum, and both wanted to make a move with Chengfeng, but they didn't dare to act rashly until the matter was clarified.
Jielan in the house heard the argument outside the door, and knew that something was wrong, so she had to tidy up her clothes and leave the house immediately, and when the door opened, the faces of Tianling and Xuan Yin came into view.
And Xuan Yin saw that Jielan was safe, and her tense heart also settled down. And Jielan saw that the atmosphere between Xuan Yin and Chengfeng seemed very tense, so she knew that something had happened between them, and hurriedly said, "What's wrong with you?" ”
When Xuan Yin heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Jielan's arm, and said, "Are you okay?" ”
Jielan's arm was suddenly grabbed by Xuan Yin like this, and she couldn't help but blush her cheeks, and Chengfeng and Qi Xue were stunned when they saw Xuan Yin and Jielan's intimate behavior, and they looked at Jielan in a daze, and she was even more shy and embarrassed. Jielan hurriedly broke free from Xuan Yin's hand, turned sideways, and said, "How can I be fine, don't you think I'm fine?" ”
Xuan Yin was immediately confused, pointed to Chengfeng beside her, and said, "Then who is this person and why is he staying here?" ”
It turned out that a few people were disgusted because of this matter, and it seemed that they were all provoked by Dao Ming before she was fine, she hurriedly walked to Chengfeng's side, pointed at Chengfeng and said: "Actually, he is the same as you and me, it is the Blood Demon White Demon Chengfeng, they suddenly came here last night, and you have all stopped, so I didn't introduce you to know each other in advance, which caused such a misunderstanding." She pointed at Xuan Yin again and said: "This is Xuan Yin, the second son of this Heimu County, the black devil with the power of hell, and this one is Tian Ling, the demon servant of Jin Xuan, the city lord of Jinzhao City, who has been with me all the way for some reasons, and I will slowly tell you the reason later." ”
After hearing this, several people were very surprised by the identities of the two parties, but they didn't expect that Jielan's line actually knew so many people again. When Tian Ling and Xuan Yin heard that the other party was actually the White Devil Saint Venerable Chengfeng, they were in awe for a while, and they no longer spoke ill of each other, but said: "I have always heard of your reputation, but I didn't expect to meet here today, but I am really lucky." ”
Chengfeng nodded slightly at the two of them, but in his heart he was still thinking about what kind of relationship Xuan Yin and Jielan had, because he could see from Xuan Yin's eyes that he was very worried, and that kind of emotion was unusual. Chengfeng himself didn't know why he was a little mindful when he saw this Xuan Yin, and he didn't want him to be so intimate with Jielan.
Jielan only said: "I am going to build a cemetery now, Xuan Yin, you are the second son of this county, you must know where to go here, if you are willing, take us there, if you want to go back to the county court, we will meet again in the future." ”
"To the cemetery?" Xuan Yin became worried, and hurriedly said: "What are you going to do there, it is the place where the ancestral cemetery is built, outsiders are not allowed to enter, if you trespass without permission, if you are caught, you will be executed on the spot." ”
Jielan naturally knew the danger, she only said: "You don't have to ask about this, I think you should go back to the county court, after all, it is never a way to escape outside, and you can't never see your relatives forever, right?" ”
Xuan Yin was silent, his heart sank, and he didn't know what to say.
Jielan pulled Qi Xue and said, "Let's go!" She saw that Xuan Yin had no intention of going all the way with her, so she said: "Thank you for taking care of you these days, we will say goodbye first, and we will meet again in the future." After she finished speaking, she pulled Jielan and walked downstairs, while Chengfeng and Tianling followed Jielan and walked out together.
And Xuan Yin watched Jielan's back gradually disappear, thinking about saying goodbye, I am afraid that there will be no chance to see each other again, I can't help but have a trace of dull pain in my heart, he covered the wound on his right arm with his left hand, and the wound has almost healed at this moment, but Xuan Yin suddenly felt that the wound was aching faintly, because he always felt that there was still Jielan's temperature in the wound, and this temperature spread to his heart, making his heart ach faintly, but even so, did he have to let her leave his side, But do you want to follow her to the cemetery? If my father knew that he had done such a rebellious thing, I am afraid that I would really break with my father, and I am afraid that I would have no place in this Heimu County.
When Jielan walked to the hall, she saw that the drunk man last night was actually lying on a flower table and sleeping drunkly, and the women who surrounded her last night had already entered the room to rest, leaving him alone to lie there, it seems that he slept here alone for one night, for some reason, Jielan actually felt a little pity for him, but thinking about this kind of fun-seeking man, why should she be pitiful, she sighed, and asked the black pig to pay the silver tael, and then asked the black pig to pick up the clothes for the man to put on. The black pig didn't know why Jielan did this for the man, but if Jielan was kind-hearted, he must have pitied him, so he acted according to his words, and after the black pig finished his work, Jielan asked the old bustard about the place to build the cemetery, although the old bustard was shocked why they asked about it, but since the other party gave so much silver, naturally everything was said, Jielan knew the direction, and they went out of the house with Chengfeng.
