Chapter 448: A Tomb
Under the twilight, this courtyard is dark and cold, no one lives for a long time, the courtyard is covered with dry grass, and the three main houses are like black holes.
Red Candle carried Liu Yunxiang on her back first and asked her to sit on the front steps of the house.
"I'll go clean up first."
After saying that, the red candle was weaved in, Liu Yunxiang wrapped the cloak on his body, and looked up to see Chongming still standing at the door, staring at the tomb, his eyes were ruthless, violent, and a little scared.
That's right, it's scared, his expression is tense, his hand is clutching the door, motionless, as if he is facing a life-seeking ghost from the underworld instead of a tomb.
Liu Yunxiang was suddenly very curious, who was buried in this tomb that could make a murderous evil ghost afraid.
The wind was strong again, howling, and then snow began to fall.
The red candle lit the candle, and the light cast from the door illuminated the area in front of the door, and Liu Yunxiang sat where the light could be obtained, and the light was bright in the dark. The snow seemed to be warm and cold, and it was white when it fell beside her, and dark white when it fell on Chongming.
The snow fell heavier and heavier, and after a long time, Chongming moved, walked into the courtyard step by step, walked to the grave, and then sneered. He was laughing at the people in the grave, like a madman.
"Mother, I didn't expect it, I came to see you alive again."
Liu Yunxiang's heart trembled, this tomb belongs to Chongming's mother?
Chongming's mother is the good lady of the first prince, the first prince was framed by the current emperor for rebellion, and the first emperor was furious and imprisoned the masters of the East Palace.
The first prince and several ministers who were usually good friends secretly sent the pregnant Liangdi to the north of the town and asked General Yan for shelter. But he was chased and killed by the pursuers halfway, and when this Liangdi fled, he did not go to the north of the town, but was exiled outside the gate.
After that, she didn't know, in short, many years later, the child born to this Liangdi, the orphan of the first prince appeared, and then returned to Zhenbei Pass, and Jing'an Hou secretly sheltered him.
It's a re-eye.
Liu Yunxiang saw Chongming bending down to pull off the barren grass on the grave one by one, and spoke to the grave while pulling it out: "My son has been to Darong, and the world has long forgotten his father, and of course no one remembers you and me." ”
"When we were in the tribe, they called us foreigners, but when we returned to Darong, I still seemed like an alien, and it seemed that I shouldn't go back at all."
"Actually, it doesn't matter, what I want, I'll take it myself. It's not interesting for others to give it. ”
After the red candle was cleaned, he came out and carried Liu Yunxiang in, and after putting her on the warm floor, he went out to light the fire and warmed the collapse. After a while, Liu Yunxiang finally warmed up.
Red Candle brought another bowl of hot soup and handed it to her.
Liu Yunxiang hated the red candle for aiding the abuse, but she at least let go of Zijin and took care of herself these days, so compared to Chongming, she didn't hate the red candle so much.
"Is this the mother of Chongming in this tomb?" She asked.
Red Candle sighed, "Yes." ”
"When did she die? Sick? How could it be buried here? ”
After asking three questions in a row, Liu Yunxiang waited for the red candle to answer, but she was silent for a moment, but shook her head.
"Actually, I don't know."
"You don't know?"
He seemed to be very taboo about his master's past, and he did not allow anyone to ask about it. It was also when I came back from Darong that year, when we passed Fengdu, the master took me here to pay respects, and I learned that the master's mother was buried here. ”
What Chongming said in front of the grave, Liu Yunxiang faintly guessed that Chongming did not have a good relationship with his mother, and even he hated his mother.
Due to the heavy snowfall, the road was closed and the city gate was closed, so they could only wait for the New Year to be warmer before they could go out of the border pass.
The new year is at the end of the year, and other people's homes are lit up for the New Year, and they are lively, but they don't care about the New Year, and they can't be lively, just like the usual dead silence.
But on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chongming asked Red Candle to make a few dishes and set a table in the open room.
Liu Yunxiang naturally refused to eat at the same table with him, but he threatened with Yan'er, and Liu Yunxiang could only sit down. The door opened, the cold wind poured in, and when I sat in my seat, I could see the grave outside.
Liu Yunxiang wrapped his cloak and sneered: "The thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve is a reunion of relatives to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, what are we." ”
Chongming was in a very good mood, and he was not angry when he heard this, and poured her a glass of wine.
"Last year was quite lively, but we were in the cage, and this year the damned ones are dead, and the living ones have escaped from the cages, so we should celebrate."
Liu Yunxiang directly picked up the glass of wine and poured it at Chongming, splashing it on his face.
"Damn it's you!"
Chongming laughed out loud as he wiped his face, "This sounds familiar. ”
He looked at the grave in the courtyard, "My mother said the same." ”
Liu Yunxiang frowned, "You ......"
"I don't mind having an extra grave at home." Chongming narrowed his eyes and poured another cup for Liu Yunxiang, "My mother really lacks a companion, after all, she died in a foreign country, maybe she became a lonely ghost, and she was trapped in this courtyard forever, she was also very lonely." ”
Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but shudder when she heard this, a courtyard in all directions, surrounded by high walls, no one would ever know that she was here......
Liu Yunxiang subconsciously looked at the tomb in the courtyard, and sure enough, there was no tombstone.
Chongming was still smiling, but the coldness in his eyes was even worse, Liu Yunxiang had no intention of finding it unhappy, so he drank the wine in his hand, took two simple bites, and let the red candle carry her back to the back room.
Lying on the Luohan bed by the window, Liu Yunxiang thought of Yan Dusk, his heart was like a knife, and he thought of his son again, and he was worried.
Chinese New Year's Eve, the family should have been reunited.
The next day, Liu Yunxiang got up.
Red Candle served her to freshen up, "Madam, I cooked porridge, bring you a bowl of it." ”
Liu Yunxiang nodded, he usually got up and could hear the sound of Chongming practicing his sword in the courtyard, but not today.
"Where's your master?" She asked.
Red Candle said: "The master has gone to the medicine shop." ”
Chongming has several small porcelain bottles on his body, and the bottles are full of poisons, and he has killed a lot of people and used a lot of poisons along the way.
He is very powerful in martial arts, but he can use poison and never use his hands.
Liu Yunxiang turned his mind and said, "Red Candle, I want to eat steamed buns, you go to the street and buy some for me." ”
Red Candle was silent for a moment, "Then you stay at home, I'll be back soon." ”
After the red candle finished speaking, Liu Yunxiang was a little hesitant, she did coax the red candle, and as soon as she went out, she escaped, but this was too easy to deceive.
Although Liu Yunxiang had doubts, he hurriedly put on his cloak and dragged his legs out.
In order to facilitate the transportation of goods from the south to the north, they Lingyun founded a dart bureau in Fengdu, and she had to find a way to use the dart bureau to send a message to Wei Tian, so that he would know what was going on, and know what kind of person Chongming was, so as not to fall into his trap.
Liu Yunxiang climbed to the front of the courtyard with difficulty, and with a gentle push, he actually pushed it open. She was surprised and happy in her heart, and hurriedly climbed out, but not far away, she saw a person blocking her, and she looked up to see that it was Chongming.
He was staring at her, his eyes dark.
