Chapter 4 The moon is dark and the wind is high
Twilight Mountain Jingyan quickly wrapped his arms around Yu Yu's shoulders and took her into his arms, "Are you okay?" Still not feeling well? Yu Wu immediately understood his intentions, leaned her weight into his arms, and nodded.
I didn't think that in the next second, Twilight Mountain Jing hugged her horizontally, and for a moment she smelled a fragrance of sunken wood, which was very good, and her face was completely buried in the crook of his arm, and with the cover of the hat, others couldn't see it at all.
"Excuse me, my sister has been in poor health since she was a child, and she is going to take medicine." Twilight Shanjing said and went straight past Li Jinnian and his party, and walked upstairs with Yu Yu in his arms.
After entering the room, Du Shanjing put Yu Wu on the edge of the bed and sat down, only to see that her face was dyed with a faint layer of crimson because of the lack of breath of Fang Cai, so he turned around and opened a crack in the window to ventilate, and poured her a cup of hot water, "Warm your hands, drink it when it is warm, I will ask someone to cook medicine." Seeing him like this, Yu Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and joked with a chuckle: "I didn't expect Yu Gongzi to be so skilled now." ”
Twilight Mountain Jing smiled and replied casually, "Actually, it's not just now. However, he didn't continue, just wrapped up the medicine bag and immediately went to boil the medicine.
Yu Yu got up and closed the door, coughed lightly, walked to the window, looked out through the small crack that opened, and saw a carriage parked in the backyard, and Wang Po and her husband were guarding the side of the car, it seemed that the wheel was cracked and had not been repaired.
The room where the medicine was cooking was also in the backyard, and Yu Yu saw the figure of Twilight Mountain Shadow flash into the pharmacy, worried that she would be discovered by them, so she sat back on the bed to rest.
When Dusk Shanjing came back, the charcoal fire in the room was also burning, Yu Wu took off her cloak and put it aside, and when she looked back, she saw that Dusk Shanjing didn't know where to take a bag of candied fruit and bake it on the fire, and said with a smile: "Later, after you drink the medicine, eat another candied fruit, and it won't be bitter." ”
Yu had never eaten candied fruit, and such things were uncommon in their place, but she felt that the fruit brought back by her father was also equally relieving.
But she still took the hot candied fruit and thanked him, "Thank you." ”
"No, you've said thank you all along the way."
Yu Yu smiled lowly, "I know, but I still want to thank you, and just now, thank you too." ”
"You're welcome." Twilight Mountain View responds as she fiddles with the charcoal fire.
Estimating that the medicine was almost cold, Yu Yu drank a large bowl of medicine in one gulp, and said with a smile: "But I didn't expect you to react so quickly just now." ”
"Maybe I did have a sister once, and I picked it up at once." "She used to be in poor health, and she couldn't get out of the house in the harsh winter, and finally she died in the wind and snow when she was eight years old." "Died in the palace with yellow tiles and red walls, under the heavy palace gates.
“... I'm sorry. Yu Wu's voice was low and she whispered, and subconsciously put the candied fruit into her mouth and took a small bite, and a sweet taste suddenly bloomed on the tip of her tongue.
"It's okay, I'm not a person who lived in the past." Twilight Shanjing smiled, looked up and saw that she was eating candied fruit, so she smiled and asked, "Is it delicious?" ”
"Hmm!" Yu Yu nodded vigorously and said with a smile, "I haven't eaten anything so sweet." ”
"It's good to like it, there's a lot more there, but you can't eat too much, it'll give you a toothache." Twilight Shanjing said with a smile, feeling that the wind was getting stronger outside, he walked to the window and closed the window a little smaller, his eyes drooped, and he saw the princess below, her eyes were slightly dark.
When they borrowed the medicine from the back kitchen, they heard the two of them discussing in a whisper, and one said: "On such a cold day, that little girl must not be able to stand it, it is really hard, she should not have taken this trip with Li Yuanwai a long time ago." One said: "Everything has been done, what is the mercy here, let me tell your wife, let's take money to do things, don't have a heart that shouldn't be." ”
Although it was only two short sentences, judging from Fang Cai's strange reaction, Du Shanjing had a rough idea of the matter in his heart, but Yu Yu didn't say it, and he didn't plan to ask.
Seeing that the sky had darkened, Yu Wu was already a little sleepy, the road up the mountain tomorrow was not easy to walk, she still had to recuperate, and was about to tell Twilight Shanjing that she planned to rest, but when she looked up, she saw that he was about to go out with a mattress, she wondered: "It's so late, where are you going?" ”
"Oh, I saw that there were people down there who were still drinking, so I went down and drank two cups, and by the way, I slept underneath." Twilight mountain view returns.
"Sleep below, but below..."Yu Wu was interrupted by a smile before she finished speaking, "It's okay, it's also warm down there, after all, there are people guarding the store, they will burn charcoal, I'm in good health... I mean, I don't know how late it will be after drinking, you don't have to worry about me, just close the door and sleep in peace. After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Yu Yu to speak again, and went out with the mattress in his arms.
The room fell silent, Yu Yu took a deep breath, got up to extinguish the candle, and lay down on the bed.
Even if he knew that he had to take care of his energy, he couldn't sleep over and over, and through the thin layer of underwear, Yu Yu carefully touched the traces of the book.
There are still too many unknowns ahead, not to mention that I don't know if the Taoist priest is a liar, so many years have passed now, even if it is true, whether the person remembers this matter or not, and whether he recognizes it is another matter.
After all, the Qingyun Gate's Immortal Ascension Conference has not yet arrived, and if you go so rashly, you will knock on the mountain gate, and it is inevitable that there will be some...
She shook her head, trying not to think about it, but the more she deliberately forgot it, the more her thoughts were entangled in such things, and she couldn't sleep anymore.
In the second half of the night, listening to the movement, the wine party downstairs seemed to have ended, and the night became quieter and quieter, but Yu Wu still couldn't sleep, and remembered that it was so big below, what could a little charcoal fire warm up?
However, before she could think about it, she suddenly heard a sound of footsteps outside the corridor, which sounded sneaky, and Yu Wu immediately grabbed the quilt and listened carefully, but fortunately, the footsteps were not directed at her room, but towards the door in the southeast corner.
The room in the southeast corner... Yu Yu quickly went through the layout she saw today in her mind, there were guards guarding the southeast door, if she guessed correctly, it seemed to be Li Jinnian's room, only she would put on such a big show.
Now the night seems to be even quieter, Yu Wu thinks that the breathing is too noisy, and listens to the movement outside with bated breath, but only hears a little muffled sound of falling to the ground, and then there seems to be a blocked exclamation.
Yu Yu only needed a little thought to guess what was going on, but she didn't dare to think about what would happen to a young lady who was like a flower and jade in this dark and windy night.
On the table downstairs, Twilight Mountain View sat on the table, with his back against the pillar, one foot on the edge of the table, one foot on the ground at will, the moonlight did not light his dark eyes, he held a copper coin in his hand, threw it high in the air and caught it, with the slight sound of struggle upstairs,
Throw-catch-catch
Throw again - pick up again -
From the time he entered the door, he could see that this group of people was not a good person, they had swords on their bodies all the year round, they were not from the court, they were all born in the flesh, most of them were doing business in marginal areas, and after drinking two pots of wine, they knew that they were open-minded and bullied the soft and afraid of the hard.
However, he didn't plan to let them make too much trouble, almost, he would naturally take action.
Twilight Shanjing caught the copper coins falling from the sky again, and was about to leave, when he glanced at the end of his eyes, and suddenly saw smoke drifting out of Yu's room, and before he could go up, he saw a cloth wrapped in charcoal fire thrown out of the window, and at the same time as the sound was made, the fire quickly jumped up.
"It's on fire, put out the fire!"
