Chapter 11 Concentric Knots

The man crouched down, his fingers on Feng Yin's neck quickly, Feng Yin felt a pain in his neck and coughed violently, but now he could make a sound.

Before Feng Yin could calm down, his voice came again, "You are from the demon clan, how can you be in this place?"

Feng Yin didn't know what he was talking about, and he didn't care about it, he just wanted to escape from here immediately, but he didn't dare to move again for a while, so he shrank back vigilantly, and carefully replied while calming his breath: "I'm from the town, not a monster." ”

The man didn't reply, but looked coldly into Feng Yin's eyes again, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes.

Feng Yin stood up cautiously by holding on to the trunk of the tree, plucking up the courage to take a few steps forward slowly under his gaze, and did not stop until he reached the light, and asked in a trembling voice, "I... Can you go, you said, you won't hurt me. ”

He stared at Feng Yin's eyes and didn't speak, and Feng Yin didn't dare to move again, and the two just stood quietly, stalemate.

Suddenly, he took a step forward and reached out to touch Feng Yin's neck, Feng Yin felt his cold fingers touching his skin, his heart was shocked, he turned his head to dodge, and immediately raised his eyes in anger to glare at him, only to find that his brow was slightly furrowed when he stared at him, but it only returned to normal in an instant.

Seeing Feng Yin glaring at him, the man seemed to be a little displeased, and immediately turned his back and said coldly: "You go!"

Feng Yin was relieved when he heard this voice, and he didn't bother to ask him why he was rude to touch him, so he hurriedly took a step and ran towards the door desperately, for fear that he would regret it, and he didn't dare to relax a single step.

When she finally ran out of the arch, she shouted, as if she had been greatly wronged in her voice, but she stubbornly refused to let go of her emotions: "Uncle, uncle, uncle...... Uncle, where are you?"

Wu Jifeng panicked when he heard the voice, thinking that something was happening, and hurriedly rushed to the wind, and asked while running a little anxiously: "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Feng Yin ran in front of him and threw himself into his arms, panting incessantly from the violent running, his arms tightly wrapped around his waist and did not let go, and his body trembled slightly and invisibly.

Wu Jifeng stroked her back to help her breathe, poked his head into the courtyard, and wanted to see if something scared her, but he was too far away and couldn't see anything. I had to ask again: "What the hell is going on?"

Feng Yin finally took a breath, turned his head to look at the arch, recalled the cold touch of the hand that choked his neck, and suddenly a stir, his heart beat badly, so he buried his head in the uncle's chest again, and replied sullenly: "It's okay, it's just ...... There are rats, scared. ”

Wu Jifeng breathed a sigh of relief, laughed and stroked the back of her head and comforted: "Rats don't dare to bite, what are you afraid of." Said and smiled self-deprecatingly, "It can't happen either, I asked Li Ji and them to check before you go in, and there is nothing in it." ”

Feng Yin's heart gradually settled down because of the uncle's comfort, but he didn't want to stay here any longer, after all, the madman-like man was still inside, he was so dangerous, who knew if he would suddenly come out. So he let go of the hands that were hugging the uncle, raised his head and urged: "Let's go back quickly, I'm sleepy." ”

Wu Jifeng smiled and patted her head, let her pull herself to run on the cobblestone road, and said helplessly: "I'm so energetic even when I'm sleepy!"

Feng Yin retorted without looking back: "I have to drink a big bowl of bitter medicine when I go back, and I feel good when I think about the bitter taste." ”

Wu Jifeng's smiling black eyes dimmed the moment he heard this, and he pursed the corners of his lips tightly.

Helping Feng Yin to sit on the horse, he carefully helped her put on the cape and hat behind her back, and then raised the reins and walked back.

Inside the wall, a man dressed in black stood under a tree, his eyes slightly squinting and staring in the direction where Feng Yin had fled, his keen eyes like a goshawk bursting with a cold and dangerous light.

Suddenly, a few slightly flirtatious laughter came from the tree, followed by a joking voice: "If you think the little girl is disturbing you drinking, just slap it out, why scare her like this." ”

The man in black didn't look at him either, and replied coldly: "I should have knocked you out with one palm." ”

The man in the tree was not angry, and one flew down and landed beside the man in black.

The man was dressed in snow-colored white, with black hair like a waterfall, and his figure fluttering.

He raised his head and poured a sip of wine, glared at the man in black, and said, "It's not that I deliberately peeked, it was you who didn't drive me away, don't you just don't mind if I join in the fun, but it's rare that someone actually came here in the middle of the night to make a wish." After that, he poured another sip of wine, but the words changed and he smiled lightly: "But why are you willing to show up, I can't see my face clearly on the tree, could it be that there is some fragrance on this girl's body, I didn't smell it?"

The man in black glanced at him and didn't speak, reached out and grabbed the wine bottle in his hand, raised his head and poured most of it into his mouth, his eyes revealed a little vague sadness, and he said sadly: "My mother, at that time, she often wore white clothes, and she circled under this tree. ”

The flirtatious smile on the man in white faded instantly, and he looked up to the sky and sighed, "Miss, I just want to see him." ”

The black-clothed man's voice seemed to be soaked with deep hatred, and he took another sip of wine and said, "But he never came until she died." ”

The man in white had deep eyes, turned to look at the ginkgo tree, and asked softly, "Do you really believe that she is no longer there?"

The man in black also looked at the tree, his eyebrows tightened, but he didn't speak.

After a short silence, the man in black raised his head and poured the wine from the bottle, threw the white bottle to the ground, and commanded the man in white: "Go and check this child, I want to know who she is." ”

When the man in white heard this, his wide white sleeves covered his face, "hehe" Yile, and said with a smile: "The little girl has offended which fairy and provoked you, the devil." ”

The black-clothed man's eyes glowed with a deep inky glow in the moonlight, and he said playfully: "She is a blood pupil, how many blood pupils can be found among ordinary people?"

The man in white was stunned and wondered: "But I don't think she has any skills, she doesn't even have strength." ”

There was a hint of coldness in the man's leisurely voice, "Her pulse is very weak, and she has no strength." ”

The white-clothed man's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he smiled: "That's interesting, the blood pupils are weak, and it's really worth checking carefully." ”

The man in black closed his eyes and tilted his head to take a deep breath, and ordered, "Go ahead, don't bother me again tonight." ”

The man in white looked back at the ginkgo tree behind him, and there seemed to be reluctance in his eyes, but he finally turned around, bent down and replied, "Yes." With that, he took a few steps back respectfully, jumped and flew out of the courtyard.

The man in black stretched out his hand and stroked the trunk of the tree and turned it around, wanting to feel the breath she had left behind many years ago, and only after taking two steps, he felt something under his feet, and opened his eyes impatiently to glance at it, and it turned out to be a concentric knot.

I picked it up with a frown, and it was still warm to the touch, not like it had fallen from a tree, could it be the child?

Originally, according to his temper, this kind of thing was thrown away, but somehow, he suddenly remembered her appearance in white clothes and bowed her head and made a sincere wish, which inexplicably coincided with her figure many years ago in her mind, she said, "I wish to stay away from chaos and live a dull life."

Looking up at the bow ribbon she had tied, the coldness in her eyes dropped a little. If only she could let go of her obsession back then and just want to be bland.

Reaching out and touching the smooth ribbon on the branch, he moved the corner of his lips slightly, this child, there are not so many delusions. Looking down, the concentric knot, which was still warm, had been placed in the sleeve.

In the general's mansion, Feng Yin frowned and drank the bitter medicine that her mother-in-law had warmed, and suddenly remembered the strange man in black under the ginkgo tree. The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, so I hid in the quilt and wrapped my whole body tightly, praying silently in my heart: Bodhisattva bless, I don't want to meet this violent weird again.

After hiding for a while to suppress his fear, he poked his head out and saw that the statue of Guanyin with kind eyebrows was not far away, and Feng Yin relieved himself and lay down well. I was really tired, and I fell asleep after lying down for a while.

After a deep night's sleep, Feng Yin only had a strange dream in the early morning, dreaming that he had just hung a concentric knot on a tree, and when he turned around, he saw a man dressed in black looking at him coldly. As soon as I was nervous in my dream, I ran away with my legs, and when I shook, I was woken up by myself.

Recalling the dream, Feng Yin breathed a long sigh of relief, fortunately, it was just a dream.

But I felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't remember what was wrong? What the hell was it, I was hanging a concentric knot, and then I saw the crazy man, and then I ......

"Ah, that's right!" Feng Yin exclaimed, and suddenly changed his face, it was a concentric knot, it was a concentric knot given to him by his uncle!

I didn't see it when I changed my bedclothes last night, could it be that I fell off?

Thinking of this, he immediately got out of bed and rummaged through the clothes he wore yesterday, but no matter how he looked for it, he couldn't find the shadow of the concentric knot, and Feng Yin sat on the stool with some frustration, it seemed that it really fell somewhere.

I can't help but feel a little annoyed in my heart, although it's useless, but anyway, it's also given by my uncle, why did I lose it!

The mother-in-law heard the movement and walked in from the outhouse, and said with a smile: "It seems that I was really tired from playing yesterday, and I slept until the sun reached my buttocks." ”

Hearing this, Feng Yin came back to his senses from his loss, his face turned slightly red, he hurriedly put on his clothes, and asked again, "Has breakfast been delivered?"

The mother-in-law put down the scriptures in her hand, walked over to straighten the collar for Feng Yin, and said slowly: "You forgot, Mr. Ji is coming to check the pulse today." ”

The wind groaned "Ao" before I remembered that I needed an empty stomach before taking the pulse. It took some effort yesterday, but I woke up a little hungry this morning, so it seems that I can only endure it first.

When Mr. Ji came, Feng Yin was accompanying her mother-in-law to bow her head and chant sutras, and as soon as the little maid accompanied Mr. into the house, her mother-in-law got up to greet her.

Feng Yin knows how to be polite, so she also walked over behind her mother-in-law to greet her, bowed her head and greeted, "Hello Mr. Ji." ”

Although he had seen it so many times, when Feng Yin looked up, he still saw Mr. Ji's frowning brow and obviously deliberately avoiding his gaze. If he guessed correctly, it only means that he doesn't like himself, even if he has been taking care of his body.

Feng Yin tried to ignore the thoughts in his heart, and sat silently at the table as usual, and stretched out his right hand.

Mr. Ji didn't speak, and as soon as he sat down, the two fingers of his right hand gently pressed on the pulse of the wind roaring.

Usually, Mr. Ji takes the pulse as if he is going through the motions, and his finger is on the pulse and then moves away after a while. But today, after the fingers were on the pulse, the eyebrows were together, and his eyes looked straight into Feng Yin's eyes, with obvious surprise.

He never took the initiative to look at Feng Yin, so when Feng Yin saw him staring straight at him, he was stunned for a moment, and blurted out, "What's wrong?"

He didn't answer, moved his fingers on the pulse, and closed his eyes.

After a while, he opened his eyes, put his finger on Feng Yin's neck and stopped, Feng Yin suddenly remembered that the man had done the same last night, and his heart was unhappy for a while, and he frowned. At this time, Mr. Ji's fingers left Feng Yin's neck. Feng Yin noticed that his eyebrows were relaxed, and he guessed that it should not be a big problem.

Mr. Ji didn't speak, nodded to his mother-in-law, and then turned around and left.

Feng Yin was a little sullen in his heart, and he was like this, he didn't speak every time, this divine doctor's medical skills were clever, but his temper was really weird.

The mother-in-law shook her head and smiled at Feng Yin's somewhat gloomy little face, thinking that she was still uncomfortable about taking medicine, so she comforted: "One day I will no longer take that bitter medicine, be patient and wait." ”

Feng Yin didn't bother to explain, just leaned lazily on the table, tapping his index finger on the table in a daze.

Not long after breakfast, the sun came out. The warm sunlight was shining in the courtyard, looking very comfortable, Feng Yin thought that such a good daylight could not be wasted, so he wanted to go to the "Red Plum Courtyard" to bask himself, and since he had promised his uncle yesterday that he would no longer practice martial arts, he had to tell the "master" about this matter.

But before he reached the gate of the courtyard, the gate was pushed open from the outside, and the little guy who led the way for Mr. Ji in the morning walked in with a serious face, and seemed to be startled when he saw Feng Yin in front of him, and was stunned for a moment, but he immediately calmed down for a moment, frowned slightly and deliberately took a step back, bowed his head and said, "Miss, the general, please go to the hall." ”
