Chapter 40: Clearing the Portal

Traitors have been the most despicable and hated people since ancient times, because people cannot accept that a person who was originally in their camp and trusted by them suddenly chooses to betray one day because of other interests. What's more, this person may still get along day and night, which will make the hatred deeper. Because of this, there is a word on the rivers and lakes called "cleaning the portal", but perhaps, the person who betrayed you in your mouth did not stay by your side sincerely from beginning to end.

The people of Yunzhou City don't seem to know that on a certain night here, there was a vicious battle and many people died, maybe this is not something they need to care about at all, what they care about is only Changle Palace, this place where singing and dancing was leveled, and Yingying Yanyan was closed overnight, leaving no one behind, as if it had never been opened, and suddenly disappeared.

It's been two days, but no one has seen Wuxin in these two days. For since he came back that night, Wuxin has shut himself up in the house, not eating or drinking, and not opening the door to anyone who calls him, nor letting anyone in. Everyone didn't know what was going on, and they didn't know what to do, so they could only wait anxiously.

Today, finally someone couldn't wait, regardless of everyone's dissuasion, and regardless of whether he would blame unintentionally, he broke in directly, this person is Ruyi.

When the door was pushed open, Wuxin, who was sitting in front of the window, did not blame as he imagined, nor did he look back, he still sat there quietly, he already knew who came in, and only she dared to break in so directly, and only she couldn't lose his temper with her.

Ruyi walked behind Wuxin gently, looked at the thin, lonely back in front of him, and said slowly: "What's wrong with you? There was a hint of complaint in his tone, but it was unusually gentle.

Wuxin didn't talk immediately, took a deep breath, and after a while, he said lightly: "I'm thinking about the road I'm taking, whether it's right, whether it's worth it, whether I should go in the future, and how to go." ”

Ruyi listened to Wuxin's words, frowned slightly, and asked slowly with a hint of doubt: "Then have you figured it out?"

Wuxin smiled, smiled very relieved, couldn't help it, and then said: "Originally, I haven't figured it out, and I don't know how long I will think about it, but the moment you suddenly pushed the door in just now, I suddenly understood and understood." ”

"What?" Ruyi continued.

"Whether it's right or wrong, worth it or not, I've already embarked on this path, and I'll continue to do so, because I don't want anyone I care about to be hurt by anyone, it was, it is, and it will be, even if I encounter a powerful enemy, I won't stop, I will break him, and then continue to walk until I die. Wuxin said lightly.

Although his voice was very soft, every word was categorical, and every word made Ruyi's heart be hit hard. At the moment when Ruyi pushed open the door just now, he heard the voices of everyone outside the house, and he also felt the care that Ruyi cared about himself in his heart. He knows that these people are the people he cares about, and they are also the people he must sacrifice his life to protect.

Ruyi stepped forward, stretched out her right hand and put it on Wuxin's shoulder, and grabbed it hard, this was the first time she was so bold and so uncontrollable. I only heard her say slowly: "No matter which way you go, how you go, I... We will all be with you, but you must not die before any of us. Finally, his voice began to tremble, and his right hand, which was gripping Wuxin's shoulder, became even harder.

Originally, she wanted to say that I would accompany you, but after all, it was not so straightforward, she didn't know if she had heard her words or not, whether she could understand her own mind, because Wuxin had fallen asleep, so she fell asleep with her head slightly sideways, leaning on Ruyi's body, at this moment, they were so close and so close.

Wuxin was too tired, he hadn't slept so quietly for a long time, the moment he closed his eyes, there was still a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, he smiled very comfortingly, very unscrupulous, he heard the words of Ruyi, and understood.

Another two days have passed, Shangguan Fengyun's injuries have improved, and he has roughly described to everyone what happened to him after he came to Yunzhou City, and he also expressed his doubts.

Cheng Yuan disappeared, and from the moment Shangguan Fengyun was fascinated, Shangguan Fengyun never saw him again. This made everyone wonder, how could a housekeeper who had followed his master for decades suddenly disappear, and his life and death were unknown. Shangguan Yunjie had already decided to go and find out in person, because he suspected that Cheng Yuan's disappearance had some connection with Red Feather.

But he didn't want to wake up yet, as if he had made up for all the sleep he had lacked at once this time.

Ruyi sat closest to Wuxin's room, with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking. She heard Lin Xuan's footsteps walking around the door of Wuxin's room, heard the conversation between Shangguan's father and son, and heard the sound of Nangong Chu's folding fan constantly opening and closing while staying here, but she was always worried about the person who had been concerned about her from beginning to end.

After falling asleep on her that day, she put Wuxin on the bed, originally she was reluctant to separate the two of them like that, but for a person who has not had a good rest for too long, the bed is the best gift she can give.

"Squeak......", a clear grinding sound came, and the door opened. Wuxin finally woke up. Everyone in the hall raised their heads and looked at the man who could be described as a "sleeping god". But everyone's hearts secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart that had been carrying it finally slowly fell.

"I'm hungry. Wuxin said something that made everyone laugh when he took the first step out of the door, and everyone laughed from ear to ear. It turned out that he would also say that he was hungry, and everyone thought that he was beaten with iron, because he had not eaten or drunk for four days.

After a short laugh, Ruyi and Lin Xuan ran to the kitchen almost at the same time, this was the first time Ruyi had lost her temper so much, as if she was afraid that she would be one step later than Lin Xuan. The remaining three looked at the two girls who were running to the kitchen, and then looked back at Wuxin.

Shangguan Fengyun looked like "I completely understand", but Nangong Chu and Shangguan Yunjie had a look of envy and jealousy, and their eyes were full of "hostility".

"Who the hell are you?" Wuxin ignored the strange eyes of everyone, stared at Nangong Chu who was sitting on the side and asked, Wuxin was not in front of him when Ruyi introduced Nangong Chu that day, so he didn't know Nangong Chu's identity yet.

Nangong Chu shook the folding fan and said triumphantly: "I am the senior brother of Ruyi's childhood sweetheart, and I have watched her grow up since I was a child. ”

"Oh. Wuxin answered lightly, found a place to sit down, and didn't talk again. In fact, he had already guessed that Nangong Chu was probably related to the Phantom Sound Pavilion or the Furong Hall, otherwise it would not be possible to always know his whereabouts so clearly.

He also knew that Ruyi had been secretly sending people to follow him, but he knew that it was not surveillance, but he was not worried about himself. It seems that she has to be careful in the future, otherwise it will make Ruyi even more worried, especially when she was seriously injured like Wan Qinggang, she must be worried.

Nangong Chu saw that Wuxin ignored his words, and didn't even care about it, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, he originally planned to use those words to deliberately stimulate Wuxin, but he didn't expect Wuxin to care at all, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he shook the folding fan stupidly and stopped talking.

After a while, both girls rushed back, and one walked in with a large bowl of noodles, put it in front of Wuxin, staring at Wuxin tightly, as if they were looking forward to which bowl Wuxin would choose.

But in the eyes of the other three, none of them would touch these two bowls of noodles, because it was obvious how hastily these two bowls of noodles were made, and there was still flour that had not been wiped off at the mouth of the bowl, as well as noodles of different lengths and thicknesses, which were not at all what a person who could cook could make.

But Wuxin still ate it, and the two bowls of noodles were eaten clean, although the appearance was not good, but this was almost the best thing he had ever eaten, and there was not even a mouthful of soup left, and the other three men on the side were dumbfounded.

Looking at the unintentional satisfaction, Lin Xuan and Ruyi both smiled with satisfaction, although there was a priority when they were unintentionally eating, but he ate both bowls of noodles, and the food was very fragrant. In fact, this is the first time for the two of them to cook, and they are forced to teach them on the spot by the chef of the inn, although the process is a bit "complicated", but fortunately it is completed.

After Wuxin finished eating, he had a brief greeting with everyone. When he heard about Cheng Yuan's disappearance, he also felt strange in his heart, and he was a little relieved to hear that Shangguan Yunjie was going to investigate in person.

"Do you know where to start?" said Wuxin, looking at Shangguan Yunjie.

Shangguan Yunjie shook his head and said slowly: "It's not sure if he has anything to do with Red Feather, it's possible that he has really been killed by Saibei Shuangying, but I can't let go if I don't find out, so I plan to go to his hometown, Cheng Yuan is a filial person, and he will go back to his hometown to visit his elderly mother at this time of year, I once sent someone to check, and it is indeed true." "In the rivers and lakes, you must always know the people around you, not deliberately to investigate who to monitor or monitor, but for the safety of each other.

"I'll go with you. Wuxin said lightly.

"But your injury ......" Shangguan Yunjie wanted to refuse, but suddenly knew that he couldn't refuse, but he was still worried about the unintentional injury.

Wuxin smiled, shook his head, and said slowly, "It's okay anymore." "Although he was stabbed by the golden knifeman, but after all, it was the other party who was injured unintentionally when he fled, and he didn't use all his strength, although he looked dangerous, but after a few days of rest, he was almost fine.

So, after unintentionally asking Nangong Chu to escort Shangguan Fengyun and Ruyi back to Phantom City, he took Lin Xuan and Shangguan Yunjie to continue on the road together. Originally, he wanted Lin Xuan and Ruyi to go to the Phantom City together, but Lin Xuan was unwilling to live or die, so he stalked her to the death, and took her with him in desperation.

Soon, the three of them were on the road at the same time after separating from Ruyi and others. I don't know when we'll see each other again, and I don't know what kind of dangers I'll encounter on the road. But there are some things that must be done, and no matter what kind of danger and enemies he encounters, Wuxin will no longer be afraid of it, because he knows what is most important to him, and his heart is stronger than ever at this moment.

What should come will come eventually......
