Chapter 13: The Ruyi Sword (2)
"The room has been cleaned up, Lord Zhu, Lao Yu and Master Mo have said goodbye, my lord should rest early." After Sun Changxu finished speaking, he led Modo to leave with his hand.
After everyone left, Zhu Wenyu stretched his waist and said with a smile: "It's okay, let's sleep first, it's hard to worry about Lao Sun Tou and Lao Mo." Yun'er, Maya, will you go to the bath first? β
Who knew that after saying this, Tang Yun and Maya actually sat and didn't move, Zhu Wenyu felt strange, looking at Tang Yun, but he lowered his head and wept, and suddenly said: "Yun'er, are you worried about Xiaoli?" Don't worry, Mu Tou has sent her to the Tang Gate, and with the Tang Gate's detoxification skills, the poison in the Xiaoli Institute is not a problem. As for the hand injury, there is no way to do it, but fortunately, it is not killed, and when we finally meet, treat her well in the future and take more care of her. β
"Xiaoli has been serving me for almost five or six years, just like my own sister......" Tang Yun's tears couldn't stop flowing.
Zhu Wenyu sighed and said: "Okay, okay, Yun'er, it's useless for you to cry, take care of Xiaoli more in the future, and in the future, I will find Du Feng's bastard to avenge Xiaoli, and I will let him know what Lao Tzu is like to be ruthless." Now you better wash it up. As he spoke, he patted Tang Yun on the back.
"Hmm." Tang Yun agreed, crying while going to his house.
Zhu Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at Maya, who was still bowing her head and silent, and said, "By the way, Maya, I have felt that you are not right for many days, and you don't like to talk as much as before, what's wrong?" Under the weather? What's on your mind? Tell me about it. β
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Maya hurriedly disguised.
"Still say no? If you had been chattering and flying into the sky before, you have been like a stuffy gourd these days, and you can't say a few words with me and your sister Tang, what kind of mess are you thinking about? Tell me about it, your old brother Zhu is in charge for you. Zhu Wenyu put one hand on Maya's shoulder.
"I didn't ...... No...... Nothing on the mind. Maya waved slightly and took off Zhu Wenyu's hand.
ββ¦β¦ Do you miss your master? Zhu Wenyu asked.
ββ¦β¦ Well, yes,...... I kind of thought about it. Maya nodded.
"No wonder, you haven't seen Master for so long. Homesick, right? Zhu Wenyu smiled.
ββ¦β¦ Well, Brother Zhu, will you leave for the capital tomorrow? β
"yes, let's leave tomorrow, it's better to leave early, there's nothing else to do here anyway." Zhu Wenyu said while moving his arms.
"That'...... Then I won't go with you, I'll go back to Master first. β
"Oh? You're not going? Don't come with me to the capital? It's very fun in the capital, I still have a house, there are a lot of people, and it will be fun if there are many people. Zhu Wenyu said in surprise.
"Hmm...... No, you ...... You and Sister Tang can go together, too...... It's also more convenient. Maya burst into tears as she said this.
Maya lowered her head, Zhu Wenyu naturally didn't notice the tears flowing in her eyes, and still said to herself: "Well, it's okay, it's okay for you to go back to Master, I'm also relieved." I'm going back to the capital this way, and I don't know if I'll encounter any more troublesome things like the killers of the Tianyi Alliance, and I'll be less distracted when you go back. In this way, Maya, you go back to your master in Chengdu first, and if I come back from the capital and then enter Sichuan, I will find a way to tell you. I will definitely come back, I have to go to Tangmen to see Xiaoli's injury, and I have to find Du Feng's old bastard, this bastard has lost half of Lao Tzu's life this time, I have to give him some color to see, otherwise Lao Tzu will lose a lot, and I want the young master to suffer such a big loss and swallow it in my stomach? Hehe, it's not that easy. Although Zhu Wenyu said this in his mouth, he actually understood very well in his heart, in the future, he and the Tianyi Alliance may have to fight, and the strength of the Tianyi League will have to be weakened.
After a while, Tang Yun came out after washing, and changed Maya to take a bath, Tang Yun took a dry cloth and wiped her hair that was still dripping with dew and asked Zhu Wenyu: "Brother Yu, what's wrong with Maya?" Always so sullen and don't speak, like a different person? β
"She? I asked her just now, maybe she misses Master, right? Zhu Wenyu was still thinking about the Tianyi Alliance in his mind, and replied casually.
"Miss Master? I don't think so, maybe I'm in love with you, hehe. Tang Yun couldn't help but joke.
ββ¦β¦ Ah, what? What do you say? Zhu Wenyu obviously didn't hear clearly, and suddenly asked after a while.
"I didn't say anything, I said Maya didn't think about her master anymore, but the little girl was a doll, I can't figure out what she was thinking, who knows?" Tang Yun tilted her head and wiped her wet hair with a towel, she herself was only two or three years older than Maya, but she was called Maya Little Doll.
"Oh, I don't know, I don't know, maybe I still miss Master." Zhu Wenyu said absentmindedly.
On the second day, a servant brought Zhu Wenyu and Tang Yun's own horses, Maya didn't ride a horse when she came to Danling, and Sun Changxu also prepared one.
Since the disappearance of Zhu Wenyu and others, their horse Sun Changxu did not dare to be sloppy in the slightest, and they were washed with good grass and good materials, and they were full of spirit after a month of fattening and strength.
Sun Changxu and Mo Duo strongly persuaded Zhu Wenyu to send some soldiers to escort along the road, Zhu Wenyu couldn't resign, so he had to say: "Lord Sun, Lord Mo, don't hide it from the two of you, your soldiers are just powerful, and they have no martial arts, if they really run into a tricky opponent, not only will they not be useful, but they also have to be distracted by me to protect them, if they are ordinary people, Yun'er and I can easily send them away, I understand the kindness of the two of you, and the affairs of the soldiers are still not needed." Sun Changxu and Mo Duo thought about it, this is also true, and Zhu Wenyu has a gold medal, so he can mobilize local soldiers and officers wherever he goes, and he doesn't need an attachΓ© to escort him at all, so he just asks for it.
Zhu Wenyu and others turned over their horses at the gate of the county ya, arched their hands towards Sun Changxu and Mo Duo and others, and the three horsemen galloped eastward, running more than ten miles on the official road to a fork in the road, Zhu Wenyu slowed down his horse pace, turned back and said: "Maya, you are going to Chengdu to take the north road, and you and Sister Tang have to go east, I'm afraid we have to separate here." β
"Well, I know, Brother Zhu." Maya bowed her head on her horse.
"Go back and accompany your master, don't run around, be careful of Du Feng's bastard looking for your fork. If there is a chance, you and Sister Tang will go to Chengdu to see you. β
"yes, I know." Maya didn't seem to care about any of this at all, and bowed her head.
"Then you go, ah." Zhu Wenyu raised his hand.
"Hmm. Then I'll go, Sister Tang. Maya said.
"Well, go ahead, Maya, be careful along the way." Tang Yun said.
"Got it, sister, you guys have a good journey."
"I've never seen her like this, this little girl doesn't know what's going on, Brother Yu, do you know?" Watching Maya beat the horse away, Tang Yun turned around and asked Zhu Wenyu.
"Hehe, you are sisters, you don't know, how can I know? Drive!" Zhu Wenyu raised his whip and let the horse go east, and Tang Yun hurriedly caught up.
According to Sun Changxu's guidance, Zhu Wenyu planned to take the waterway down the Yangtze River, cross the Three Gorges, and go all the way east until Yingtian. It takes about more than a month to travel along the road to get to the capital.
Zhu Wenyu and Tang Yun have never walked through the Three Gorges from the waterway, they have heard that the Three Gorges are densely covered with dangerous shoals, the Yangtze River runs through the mountains in nine meanders, the two sides of the waterfront are often thousands of high cliffs, the mountains are steep, the mountains are cloudy and mist, unpredictable, and there is also the Wuxia Goddess Peak, which looms in the clouds and mist, occasionally revealing the true face, but it is the green cliff and dangerous peak, the weather is thousands, it is really a wonder in the world, Zhu Wenyu has heard people talk about it in the capital, and has already intended to visit, and today has this opportunity, and he is excited inexplicably. Since Zhu Wenyu went out of the capital, first went north to Rizhao, Shandong, and then went west along the Yellow River, crossed Henan, entered Sichuan, and today can go east along the Yangtze River, and the two famous rivers in the world have to travel, it is really rare, Zhu Wenyu and Tang Yun can't wait to immediately put their horses and run to the Yangtze River.
Danling is not far from Chengdu, and it is said that Maya has been going to Chengdu all the way since Danling County broke up with Zhu Wenyu and Tang Yun. Maya always felt that there seemed to be a big stone pressing in her heart, it was really uncomfortable, it turned out that she had been stuffy in her heart when she was together, and when she was separated from Zhu Wenyu at this time, tears finally couldn't stop pouring out, as if she wanted to vent the depression in her chest with tears. Along the way, it was to let the horse run wildly, not stopping, the grain of rice did not enter, to the moon and the stars were scarce, when the unitary time was just over, it had arrived at the place of Chengdu Prefecture, the horse galloped wildly for a day without stopping, and it was already exhausted foaming at the mouth and running slower and slower, just saw the city wall of Chengdu Mansion, and finally could not support it, the front hooves were soft, this Sun Changxu and Modo specially selected the good horse for Maya was so tired that he was paralyzed to the ground.
Maya was still in tears, and she didn't pay attention to the horse, and as soon as the horse fell to the ground, Maya stretched out her hand and patted the horse's back, and the man jumped up, and let the horse collapse to the ground, but Maya fell in front of her, and did not look back, and still rushed forward with light skills.
The city wall of Chengdu Mansion is approaching, how do you know that Maya does not go straight to the city, turn along the road, but run in the other direction outside the city, and then run more than 20 miles, has reached the western suburbs outside the city, only to see the countryside, at the foot of the low slope, there is a big house, more than a high wall, the houses inside are lined up one after another, the lights are on, it is a solid and wealthy Zhuang family.
Maya didn't stop, she ran closer, didn't care about the main gate and the side door, performed light skills, kicked her left foot on the outer wall, her body jumped up, and her hand on the wall was on the wall, and she had already climbed over the outer wall and fell into the courtyard.
"Who?!" Someone in the courtyard asked.
