Meng Yunzhong stayed with me in the wooden house until dusk, and then left, because You Ruojun's body was still very weak, and he couldn't sit idly by. But this is finally a good start, I wonder how You Ruojun would react if he knew?

I took advantage of the time to go back to Xiaozhu to look at Yunjin, it originally thought that I would come back very late, so it seemed very excited, and even it seemed to feel the fluctuation of my mood, so it had a good time with me.

At night, the town loses its hustle and bustle and returns to its former tranquility. The houses are quietly lined up on the side of the street, and there is occasional candlelight, but it still can't hide the deep sleep.

I sneaked into Meng Jun Villa again and found Meng Yunzhong's room, I stayed outside the door, looking at his sleeping face through the slightly open window, and I always felt that his sleeping face seemed to stretch a lot.

But that's not what I'm here tonight.

I continued to walk into the inner courtyard of the house until I saw the bushes that seemed darker at night.

"Sister You, have fallen asleep so early?"

I entered You Ruojun's room, deliberately using not light steps, she suddenly woke up from her sleep, and was greatly surprised to see me standing in front of the window.

"What are you doing again?" said her anger and nervousness, which was still of no color but pale.

"I'm just here to see if you're getting better?"

She still glared at me fiercely, as if to express her indignation at my deliberate schadenfreude.

"I wish you were doing well. If you're well, maybe Brother Yun Zhong will come to me. I smiled, then changed to a hesitant expression, "But, in the bottom of my heart, I don't want you to get better, otherwise, this game wouldn't be so fun." ”

I shook my head with a feigned regret, but caught a glimpse of her rising rage. I approached her face with interest, which was slightly distorted by anger, until I could feel her hasty snort. She suddenly raised her hand and seemed to want to slap me in the face, but I grabbed it easily. Her hand stopped in mid-air, even if she had the intention of struggling, she didn't have the ability to struggle at all, because she was still weak. Because of jealousy, I still think this scene is very interesting, even if I feel a little unbearable and sympathetic, but for some reason, I can't soften my heart against the woman in front of me, as if I was born to oppose her. Especially looking at her eyes, I seem to see a lot of recklessness and unscrupulousness, as well as boundless jealousy, which is far more terrifying than my mood at the moment.

"Don't tell him I've been here, or there will be no need to continue the bet. If you are well and want to see me, I will be waiting for you at any time where we first met. I whispered in her ear, squeezing her wrist dangling in mid-air. I knew she must have felt a lot of pain because her face was more distorted.

She was so angry that her whole body began to tremble, her face turned pale, and her breathing was loud and rapid, while I gradually moved away from her distorted face and continued to smile slightly, but subconsciously wanted to see something else from her anger.

From the moment she fell ill in bed, my intuition told me: You Ruojun doesn't seem to be an ordinary infatuated woman. Whether it's her identity as a demon catcher or her strange disease, there are many mysteries, but I can't see it clearly yet, but I vaguely feel that the mystery on her body is worth digging into.

I looked at her really unbearable expression, and then looked at the resentment that she could barely take back, I used my sleeve to draw a curve over her, and a white mist gradually dispersed with my sleeve, wrapping You Ruojun's whole person. There was another soft sound, and the candlestick at the head of You Ruojun's bed had fallen to the ground, but the faintly shaking flame was not extinguished, but shook slightly, and burned more violently.

"Sister You, don't say I didn't give you a chance, just help you once. If you don't have a place to live, I wonder if Brother Yun Zhong will accept your marriage contract because of this? or...... Is there another courtyard in this house that suits your physique?Demon Catcher......"

I looked at her frowning brow, as if I had already poked at one of her secrets, maybe not many people knew her true identity, right?

"You...... You slut! Get out of here! I don't want to see you even if I die!!" she was so emotional that she was almost already growling.

"Don't worry, Sister You, how could I be so cruel to kill you? I set up an enchantment for you, no matter how big this fire burns, you will be fine. ”

From the bottom of my heart, I really don't want her to die so soon, and since she's a mystery, why should I blindly kill her until the mystery is revealed? Maybe she's not a bad person, she's just on a different side of mine. She is nothing more than obsessed with her love for Meng Yunzhong, but this love is too arrogant and self-deceiving.

I left Mengjun Villa, but stared at what happened from afar. The fire in You Ruojun's room was full of fire and gray smoke, which naturally caused a commotion in the house, putting out the fire, saving people, and in the end, it was Meng Yunzhong who carried You Ruojun, who seemed to have fainted, away from this almost burned courtyard, she was naturally unharmed, but she still left the somewhat distorted expression when I left.

Xu thought of You Ruojun's weak body, so Meng Yunzhong and his brother-in-law Bo Yi did not hastily place her in an ordinary room, but vacated Meng Yunzhong's room and let her cultivate quietly. Meng Yunzhong moved to a nearby courtyard for a while.

When Meng Jun Villa gradually returned to calm, leaving only a wisp of smoke rising from You Ruojun's residence, I realized that the night was already very deep, and then I remembered the silk scarf that Yunjin had found for me.

I took out the silk scarf that I had been carrying with me, the silk scarf actually emitted a faint glow at night, it seems that the owner of this silk scarf is indeed a person with some spiritual power, but after tasting it, this taste is not a monster, presumably it is an evil demon who has lost its humanity. It's just that this is a bit perverted, but it makes me a little confused, women's silk scarves are smoked with a strong smell of men's bodies, at least in this town, there are no signs of this abnormality. But immediately, the impression of a person flashed in my mind - the elegant young master of Fu Yuanwaifu. After this thought, there was a thick evil aura emanating from the young master.

I looked back at Meng Jun Villa, which was sleeping again, and left those shrubs that could gather spiritual power, but I was afraid that You Ruojun's illness would be a little deeper. So, I sneaked in the direction of Fu Yuanwaifu.

I bypassed the courtyard on the outer floor of the Yuanwai Mansion and came directly to the inner courtyard where the eldest young master lived.

Strange to say, every house in this mansion was very deep and quiet, and there was nothing unusual in the slightest, and even the demonic aura that I smelled from the young master during the day disappeared completely. When I entered the young master's bedroom, I stood outside his tent, but the evil spirit around me was gone, and he only had a sleeping face, very peaceful and stable, no matter how I looked, I could not see any signs of being bewitched by demons and depleted of spirit. What puzzles me even more is that there don't seem to be other women living in this young master's courtyard, so this silk scarf on my body can't be this young master's, right?

I left the Yuanwaifu in a huff, and I found nothing, but for some reason, the more unremarkable it was, the more uneasy and suspicious it became. Perhaps, some clues have been deliberately covered up, which can only show that the opponent I faced this time did have some truths. Since he was playing a game of hide and seek with me, why should I be anxious? Wait quietly, there will be a time when the fox's tail will be exposed.

When I returned to Zhuoyun Xiaozhu, it was close to dawn, and when I saw the clouds welcoming me, I felt a little tired. Yunjin also seemed to stay awake all night, but when it saw me, it was still very excited, and I suddenly complained a little about why I didn't come back earlier.

"Yunjin, go and rest, you don't have to wait for me like this in the future. ”

Yun Jin rubbed me with his huge forehead, so attached to it.

"By the way, is the owner of the silk scarf a man or a woman?"

Yun Jin whined, I thought, since this silk scarf was brought back by it, it must know some clues, although it can't speak, but I can guess from its reaction.

"Men?"

Yun Jin seemed to understand what I meant, its head left my body, took a step back, stared at the silk scarf with wide eyes, but exhaled in its mouth, and I asked tentatively again:

"Yes, woman?"

This time, Yun Jin didn't react just now, but lay down quietly.

"Where did you find her? Is it the town's Fufu Waifu?"

Yun Jin stood up again, making that "poof" sound.

I put away the silk scarf and frowned, could it be that my intuition was wrong? Where did the demonic energy on the young master's body come from? Maybe it was just an ordinary demon? Who was the silk scarf that Yunjin found for me? Thinking about it, I only felt a slight tightness in my chest, and then I remembered that it had been nearly a day since I left the Cangrong Sword.

Yun Jin also sensed my discomfort, and hurriedly walked to my side, deliberately pushing me towards the room, I approached the sword of Cangrong on the one hand, but said to Yun Jin on the other:

"Tomorrow night, take me to the place where you found this silk scarf. ”

I slept a lot more peacefully this night, but I still couldn't help but remember the origin of this silk scarf, and I tossed and turned in my dreams, it was still the peaceful and peaceful Yuanwai Mansion, but there seemed to be nothing else except for the strange quiet. Just when there was a sudden fluctuation in the mansion, I immediately felt a wave of anxiety, the silence suddenly shook in the night, even if it was just a light, it was enough for me to know the strangeness hidden under this silence, but the air shrouded in the mansion was too blurry for me to see clearly, so I thought about it getting closer a little bit...... It was as if I had found a hole somewhere, and there was chaos in the hole, but there was a faint figure in it, and I got closer and closer, and a ribbon was winding around the hole, and if I got closer, I might be able to see it clearly...... But in an instant, there was a sudden shock in front of my eyes, and the mansion in front of me suddenly disappeared, and the figure was scattered, but I felt a pair of eyes looking at me, and there was a coldness in those eyes, and I could see a throbbing pain in my chest......

When he opened his eyes, Yun Jin had already poked his head out of the door, and it turned out to be just a dream.

I was still a little uncomfortable, even my breathing became a little short, that look refused to dissipate in my mind for a long time, I thought about it, I always felt that the look was very familiar. I cleared my mind and still had some muddy thoughts, but more than that, I continued to think about the hole that appeared in the Yuanwai Mansion in my dream, and the figure.

"Woo ......"

Yun Jin called out to me outside the door, and I came back to my senses and walked up to it and touched its forehead.

"Yunjin, these days, I may not be able to accompany you. If you feel lonely, go to the neighborhood and have fun. In the surrounding forests, there are still many small demonic beasts. ”

I comforted it, but I felt a little cruel.

After saying goodbye to Yunjin, I went to the wooden house. Even if Meng Yunzhong hasn't moved here yet, if he comes over and finds that I've been there, it will inevitably look abnormal. And he also said that he would take the time to come and talk to me every day.

The morning breeze on the cliff is slightly cool, which makes people feel refreshed. I cleaned the wooden house roughly, and made a stove, and since there were people living in it, it was natural that people should be popular. The nearby orchard had been abandoned for a long time, and I shaved the dead wood and weeds to give the neighborhood more life again. Even if it is impossible to go back to those days when there were no impurities at all, at least, no matter those bets or transactions, Meng Yunzhong is still willing to live here with me.

After a busy morning, I didn't even use a trace of spiritual power, and when I returned to the wooden house and made a few side dishes and put them on the table, I actually laughed at myself a little, and I couldn't tell whether what I was doing now was real or for acting. Or maybe, after reuniting with Meng Yunzhong, I was so blind that I forgot my hatred, forgot everything that happened not long ago, and even forgot the difference between myself and Meng Yunzhong.

Quietness will only allow you to constantly consume energy to reverie. It's just that this reverie not only did not make me clear up the chaotic thoughts in my heart, but on the contrary, made me more entangled and confused. It's all because I'm not an ordinary person, and I'm not an ordinary demon. In the end, I had no choice but to abandon my choice, my fate, my vows, and admit that I was once again mired. No matter how carefully designed and provocative my mind is, I can't hide it, I just want to possess this emotion and possess this person. If You Ruojun is too persistent, then how can I be obsessed with hatred, obsessed with contention, obsessed with memories......

The food on the table was still steaming, but my mind seemed to have gone through a reincarnation, until Meng Yunzhong appeared in my sight, I suddenly woke up from deep thought, and in a trance, I stood up and walked towards him.

"Brother Yun Zhong, are you here?"

He looked at me, and then at the food on the table, but he still couldn't stretch his brow, presumably because of last night's incident.

"Have you already had lunch?" I asked him, pretending to be nonchalant.

"No, come, let's eat together. He managed to squeeze out a smile and walked with me to the table and sat down.

"What's wrong? Is it because of Sister You's illness?" I asked tentatively, putting food in his bowl.

Sure enough, he immediately became melancholy again, and his reaction really aroused a trace of jealousy.

"Last night, there was a fire in Ruojun's room. ”

"Ah, is Sister You hurt?" I pretended to be surprised.

"Fortunately, the house was destroyed, and no one was fine. It's just that her body is already weak, and now she is even more unconscious. ”

"Then, isn't there any medicine that can cure her illness?"

He sighed faintly and said, "Even if there is, it will have to wait for some time." ”

"Why?"

"Ruojun's illness...... It's weird, and it happens once a year. The first time I fell ill, my brother-in-law and I searched for medicine everywhere, and finally found a cure for her in Fu Yuanwaifu. Only this time, the medicine has not yet been baked, and if you are not allowed to take the medicine, the disease will not be good. ”

"What kind of medicine has such an effect? What kind of disease does Sister You have?"

Meng Yunzhong shook his head heavily: "Her illness is very strange, and no one has been able to give a definite diagnosis so far, but when she became ill, she was weak all over her body, and when it became serious, she would have wrinkles on her face, as if she was dying." ”

I secretly thought about it, but the wrinkles I saw on You Ruojun's face that day were real. It's just that I still have a lot of questions, but I don't know where to start, and even if I do, maybe even he won't know.

"That's it, let's eat quickly, wait for the medicine to be prepared outside the staff, and she will be fine if she takes it." ”

Meng Yunzhong frowned when he saw me, and kept putting vegetables into my bowl with some pity.

"Brother Yun Zhong and Sister You must be very close, right?"

In order to lighten the mood, I smiled and changed the subject. In fact, I just wanted to hear more about You Ruojun's past, and I also wanted to know what kind of memories Meng Yunzhong had with her.

"Could it be that you are pro-plum sweethearts and have made a marriage contract since childhood?"

Seeing that Meng Yunzhong didn't speak, I asked. He looked up at me with a heavy expression and a little helplessness.

"Not really. ”

A short answer, but with a deliberate evasion.

"That's it, there must be many unforgettable memories between Brother Yun Zhong and Sister You, if you don't want to say it, I won't ask. ”

I smiled awkwardly, but it seemed a little bleak.

"Why do you think that?"

Looking at my gaffe, he changed his previous melancholy, but looked at me with a wordy expression, as if he wanted to see me through. Suddenly, I felt that he was indeed a person that I couldn't figure out.

I shook my head, am I going to tell her that I'm jealous?

"So what do you want to know? I'll tell you. ”

"Brother Yun Zhong and Sister You, why should I, an outsider, know about it?" I deliberately tilted my head to the side.

He finally smiled with relief, and I laughed too, as if this smile was really so simple that it was just a small talk after dinner.

"A few years ago, Ruojun saved my life and my brother-in-law's lives, and also carefully helped my brother-in-law build Mengjun Villa, so ......"

Listening to his abrupt explanations, I also began to have some associations, but I still wanted to hear him continue.

"I lost my mother when I was young, but I was fortunate to meet my brother-in-law, we depended on each other, and learned art together, and later, I made some names in the rivers and lakes. But once I was poisoned by someone else and almost died, but I happened to be rescued by Ruojun, and then helped me and my brother build Mengjun Villa. My brother was originally interested in her, but she married him as a brother and sister, but she insisted on making this marriage contract with me. My brother was very indulgent to her, and because of my brother's insistence, I could only agree, after all, my brother and I both owe her life. ”

I listened to him thoughtfully, but I didn't find any loopholes in his narrative, it seemed to be just a story of repaying kindness and long-lasting love, but I was faintly worried in my heart, but I didn't know what I was worried about. But there is one thing I know very well, with Meng Yunzhong's character, he doesn't seem to be able to let go of this wishful marriage contract easily.

At this moment, I felt a faint pain in my heart, and suddenly remembered the wedding room that Cang Li had built for me, as well as the bright red wedding dress, even though I didn't understand the concept of marriage for mortals, I still had palpitations because of it. It's just that I don't know if Meng Yunzhong will be like me, no matter what, he will get rid of the marriage that he refuses to accept. But even if he gets rid of it, does he have to bear the guilt of being like me now? You Ruojun and Cang Li didn't know when they were a little more similar, and suddenly felt that the ending of this bet would not be good.

I was silent, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at me silently.

"Brother Yun Zhong, in fact, I have a question I want to ask you, but I dare not ask. ”

I looked up at him, and I met his eyes, and there was some hesitation in his eyes, perhaps guessing what I was trying to ask, but I didn't avoid it.

"Just ask, it's okay. ”

"If Sister You had to marry you, would you agree?"
