Volume 1 Troubled Boys Chapter 34 Shadow in the Night
After everyone left, the fourth uncle told Luobei that these people were all people who came to treat the disease, and although their words and behaviors sometimes looked a little weird, they were not bad people, but after experiencing the torture of illness, they would be roughly different from ordinary people, and I don't know how many of these things have been seen in this courtyard, so everyone has long been used to it.
Luo Bei understood, because he himself was not like this, thinking of Sister Xiaochan who had not woken up after being poisoned, he was often alone in a daze.
He asked the fourth uncle how he could help the gods heal his wounds, and the fourth uncle smiled and told him to go and have a good night's rest tonight, and he didn't have to do anything, and he didn't have to think about anything, and he would talk about it tomorrow.
Therefore, Luo Bei came to the arranged room with his heart, this room is not big, not far from the front hall to the direction of the door, all the facilities in the room are complete, the furnishings are not gorgeous, but the simplicity is delicate and delicate.
At this time, he knew that there was such a small world in this big courtyard, not only the room was well arranged, but also a small courtyard after going out, surrounded by a fence surrounded by bamboo, in which many bonsai were placed, outside the fence was a circle of very lush green bamboo, the bamboo leaves were fresh and tender, and it looked very pleasant.
Especially at night, under the moonlight and quiet silver light, such a small courtyard looks even more elegant and pleasant.
Luo Bei sat on the steps in front of the door, looking at the silver moon in the sky, holding his chin with both hands, remembering the time on the mountain.
The moonlight on the mountain is a little different from here, cold, but also unique.
He was suddenly a little confused, because he couldn't do anything now except wait for Wan Ruhai to come out, he could only watch the kind-hearted divine doctor seriously injured, and Sister Xiaochan was still in a coma.
"Ouch......" he sighed softly, his eyes showing tiredness.
Suddenly, a noisy sound came, and Luo Bei followed the sound and saw that there was still a light in a courtyard not far away that was the same as his residence.
It seems that there are two people arguing about something, one of them is a male voice and the other is a female voice.
At this time, the man's voice suddenly raised, but his voice was a little weak, and before he could say a few words, it turned into a burst of coughing sounds.
The two courtyards are not far away, but they are not close, so although Luobei can hear the sound of the quarrel, he can't hear what the quarrel is.
The man coughed, and the woman's voice became much lower, as if she was a nervous man.
Although he couldn't hear what he was saying, from the sound, Luo Bei could guess that it should be the Kang brothers and sisters.
The wind grew louder at night, and dark clouds rose in the sky, obscuring the moonlight.
The green bamboos in the yard danced in the wind, and at this moment, it was like the woods on the mountain.
When the wind rises, the clouds drift away, and the shadows of the trees sway like a dream.
Luo Bei felt a little envious from the bottom of his heart, even if they quarreled, the relationship between brothers and sisters would not be hindered in the slightest, and in the end they would all become caring for each other, what could be more sincere and enviable in this world than such emotions.
At this time, there was a soft sound on the eaves, and Luo Bei subconsciously felt that a black shadow floated from above.
When he looked up, he saw a guy who had been out of his sight for a day.
Da Bai jumped lightly from the eaves to the low wall, and then jumped up to the top of the fence from the wall, and in this way, he came to the steps where Luobei was sitting.
It raised its cat's paw and scratched its ear, then let out a low cry, and walked towards the house without paying any attention to Luobei.
Luo Bei smiled bitterly, he really had nothing to say to this guy, it seemed that he had never put himself in his eyes, even to a master like Yun Cang, he also had a bad face, but they had walked all the way together, and he had a good impression of Toad Yue.
He's used to it, and he can't look at this guy with common sense.
If you don't see it with your own eyes, it must be hard to imagine that it is really unbelievable that active, lazy, intelligent and full of likes and dislikes should be concentrated in a single cat.
Luobei was dumbfounded.
It was getting late and the clouds were getting thicker.
He looked at the sky, the moon was already hidden above the dark clouds, and he thought that the fairy in the cold palace should probably go back to rest.
"There should be a rain tonight, right?" let the new rain of early autumn dry and wash away all the dust along the way, and tomorrow may be a new beginning......" he said to himself, and then got up.
The moment he opened the door, he found that the Kang brothers and sisters, who were still arguing just now, were silent, so he turned his head sideways and looked at the room next to him.
He frowned slightly, as he saw a black shadow outside the window of the room where the Kang siblings lived.
The shadow was almost level with the eaves above its head, and it was motionless against the window, like a ghost suspended in mid-air.
Luo Bei couldn't help but feel a cold sweat on his back, in the dead of night, a black shadow floating by the window, anyone could not help but be afraid.
But at this moment, a sharp sound came from the woods behind the house, and in a blink of an eye, it disappeared into the dark shadow, so fast that Luobei didn't react at all.
I saw the black shadow swaying slightly.
Perhaps hearing a sound outside, the lights in the Kang siblings' room suddenly went out, and within a few seconds, a slender figure popped out of the door.
Luo Bei could vaguely see that it was Kang Yu, the younger sister of the pair of siblings, she was wearing a tights and holding a long sword in her hand, looking around angrily.
He was attracted by Kang Yu's actions, and when he turned around, the black shadow floating by the window had disappeared without a trace.
Luo Bei didn't believe it, but in the blink of an eye, the black shadow had disappeared without a trace, and he rubbed his eyes, not knowing if he was dazzled.
But it's impossible to think about it carefully, looking at Kang Yu's appearance, he should have found something.
What exactly?
The dark shadow disappeared, and naturally no one could give an answer.
Kang Yu held the long sword tightly in her hand, and seeing that there was no one around, she stood on the steps in front of the door, but her body turned not far from the small courtyard where they lived.
It was also an almost identical yard, but there was not a glimmer of light.
After standing for a while, Kang Yu returned to the house, and Luo Bei heard the sound of her slamming the door tightly.
Luo Bei quietly looked at the elegant and chic small courtyards in the compound, and thought to himself, after all, there were still too many things hidden under the quiet night.
At this time, he remembered the conversation between Yuncang and Toadyue, they said: In such a troubled world, theft and even burning, killing and looting are already very rampant, and human lives are becoming less and less valuable, this is the truth of life in troubled times.
But Luo Bei really can't think of it, even if the world is difficult, who can bear to disturb the peace here?
I don't know how many people the gods have treated, the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Jin, or the Liao Kingdom, and then they can keep a piece of pure land in such a war-torn place.
Could it be that the people who came were not aimed at Wan Ruhai, but the Kang brothers and sisters? But......
Luo Bei really couldn't figure it out, but now that he thinks about it, the scene just now is really a little scary, and even the black shadow hanging now seems to be still in front of Luo Bei's eyes.
At this time, the wind outside gradually subsided, the raindrops slowly fell, and this rain finally came.
It didn't take long for the raindrops to become thicker and thicker, gradually turning into a large net of rain.
The drizzle was like silk, hitting the ground, and among the bamboo leaves, it sounded together.
In this otherwise quiet night, a peculiar piece of music was suddenly added.
Luo Bei returned to the house, Da Bai jumped up from the bed, jumped into his arms, probably not seen for a day, a person and a cat became very intimate.
After making a fuss for a while, Da Bai finally stopped, lying in the middle of the bed without any scruples, and after a while, he closed his eyes like a person, I don't know if he really fell asleep?
Luo Bei could only lie on the edge of the bed, only to find that the candle had not been blown out, so he had to get up again, he walked to the window, and saw that it was already raining heavily outside.
Cuizhu swayed with the wind in the rain, an autumn rain and a cold, the wind blew in through the half-hidden window, and a chill made Luobei shrink.
He looked back at Dabai, who was already asleep, then closed the window, blew out the candles, and then walked to the bed in the dark.
Lying on the bed, closing my eyes, the sound of the rain outside gradually became clear, and in the showers, there seemed to be a string of crisp wind chimes.
It is crisp and clear, even in the sound of wind and rain.
The sound of wind chimes gradually blurred in Luo Bei's mind, and then the sound of wind and rain gradually blurred, until everything became blurred, and he had already fallen asleep.
......
In the middle of the endless desert, although there is no scorching sun like fire during the day, after nightfall, the cold wind can almost cut the bones hidden in the clothes.
The desert is like the sea, the yellow sand that was silent and quiet at the last moment, in the cold moonlight, will suddenly become a turbulent undercurrent, even if it is a thousand troops, if you don't know how to survive here, you may be killed in the loess at any time.
Under a mound, two men sat around the fire, one dressed in black, the other dressed in white.
These two people are the ones who sent Luobei to Kaifeng and said goodbye without saying goodbye.
It is hard to imagine that in a few days, the two of them came from Kaifeng City to the desert in the extreme west.
Yun Cang held a wooden stick in his hand, picked up the fire to make it burn better, and filled in some dry wood that he didn't know where to find it.
"The desert is so big, it seems to be the same everywhere, where is the Eye of the Desert and the Heart of the Sea? It can't really be like what Fang Jingzhou said, this statement itself is false, right? This moon will be full soon!" Yun Cang said with some unconfidence.
Toad Moon raised her head and looked at the moon in the sky, her eyes shining like moonlight.
"I believe he ......"
"How can someone like him lie......"
Toad's voice was low, but it was unusually firm and unquestionable.
Yun Cang sighed faintly, over the years, the two of them have traveled almost all over the mountains and rivers, but that legendary place still seems to be a mystery, where is the mystery, if it weren't for the girl in front of him, he might have really given up.
Sometimes he also thinks, isn't it really bad to give up? he can go fishing leisurely, and Toad Yue doesn't have to hide her heart all day long, maybe she can also have a vigorous love, after living for so many years, even if they have a special physique and a life length that ordinary people can't match, they should easily live a more meaningful life for themselves!
Yun Cang smiled, laughing helplessly, although Toad Yue never said it, but he knew that that person had planted a seed in her young heart, which took root and sprouted, even if that person's gaze never really stayed on her, but for her at the age of a hero, he had become everything.
What's more, he is really unparalleled in the world......
In the sea of sand, the boundless yellow sand is quietly rolling, like the calm sea before a storm.
The cold wind is like a knife, but Yun Cang and Toad Yue, who are sitting in the sand dunes, don't seem to be affected at all.
Isn't it a kind of ruthlessness that the moonlight droops from a thousand feet of heaven and shines on every inch of the earth, and has never changed since eternity?
Toad Yue took out the emerald flute from her arms and blew it softly on her lips.
The flute sound is intermittent, facing the sea of sand and the cold wind, like a seabird sailing against the wind.
I don't know if I'll be able to get through that dark reef before the storm comes.
Or, in the midst of the wind and rain, sink to the bottom of the sea with the storm and the waves, and return to the blue.
......
