Chapter 92: Distant Thoughts
People say that two people who love each other are very close to each other, and they are always worried about each other in their hearts, hoping to be reunited soon. Missing is often more painful than the other party's refusal to accept you, and for two people who clearly love each other but can't be together, this kind of longing is more unforgettable.
At the door of the Phantom Sound Pavilion, there was a person standing at this time, staring blankly at the end of the street, motionless, as if he had forgotten that his feet were unconscious, and he could no longer move his legs.
She had been standing here for a long time, so long that even she had forgotten the time, and only hoped that the person who had been away for too long would suddenly appear in front of her, even if it was still the same pretended indifference. This person is none other than the Pavilion Master of the Phantom Sound Pavilion, Ruyi.
"Still no news?" At this time, a figure came to the door of the Phantom Sound Pavilion, and asked softly while slowly walking up the steps, Shangguan Yunjie.
Ruyi shook his head and didn't speak, as if he couldn't lift up any strength. She had already sent all the eyeliners of the Phantom Sound Pavilion and Furong Hall to inquire about Wuxin's whereabouts, but she couldn't find anything, and Wuxin disappeared without a trace as if she had suddenly evaporated from the world.
The only thing that can be known is that he left Xuanzhou City unintentionally after the end of the great battle in Xuanzhou City, and there has been no news since then, no one knows where he went, whether he was injured, whether he was plotted. Nangong Chu also left the Phantom City as soon as possible and went out to find Wuxin's whereabouts.
Hearing Ruyi's reply, Shangguan Yunjie frowned, shook his head, let out a sigh, and then looked at Ruyi seriously and said, "He'll be fine, believe me, and believe him." You have to take care of your body, he must not want you to torture himself like this, maybe he will appear when it is time to appear. ”
To be honest, he was also worried about Wuxin's safety, because he had seen Hongyu's strength, which was not something that ordinary people could deal with, he didn't know what Wuxin had experienced and why he suddenly lost the news, but the only thing he could do was to stay by Ruyi's side and protect her, because he had promised Wuxin.
"He's going to be fine, right? He'll be back, right?" Ruyi suddenly turned his head, looked at Shangguan Yunjie, and asked with a hint of anticipation, his eyes a little flustered.
Shangguan Yunjie nodded affirmatively and said firmly, "That's right." He knew Wuxin's strength, even if he was really plotted by the enemy, he would definitely not be heard from so suddenly.
He had never seen Ruyi so helpless, as if he had lost his soul, and now he really understood that there was no one who could replace Wuxin's position in Ruyi's heart, including him, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.
"That's right, he'll be back, he'll be fine. Ruyi turned his head and no longer looked at Shangguan Yunjie, but he was still talking to himself, as if he was looking for a comfort in his anxious heart.
Shangguan Yunjie shook his head, motioned to the maid standing aside, and said softly, "Help Miss go in and rest." Then watching the two maids almost lift Ruyi away, I couldn't help but feel a tingling feeling in my heart, as if I had lost my most precious thing.
Standing at the door, looking at the pedestrians walking through the street, Shangguan Yunjie squinted his eyes with a look of vigilance, and his subordinates who had been sent out to patrol in the past few days told him that he suspected that a group of unknown people had infiltrated the Phantom City, but they disappeared in a blink of an eye, and they didn't know where they were hiding.
Shangguan Yunjie didn't dare to be careless, while arranging a large number of people around the Phantom Sound Pavilion to guard, while sending people to closely track down the group of unknown people, he didn't like this kind of situation that was not under his control.
In the depths of an alley in the Phantom City, there is a courtyard that looks like it has been abandoned for many years, and at this time, in a room in the courtyard, there is a room full of people, all wrapped in black, with their faces covered, unable to see their appearances, holding weapons in their hands, standing neatly in the center of the room.
"If we don't take action, the people of Fengyun Castle will soon find out here, and then we will be exposed. At the front of the group, a man looked ahead and said, his emotions a little excited.
Directly in front of this person, in a shadow, a faint figure could be seen, now with his back to the group of people in the center of the room, with his hands behind his back. Hearing the words of the person behind him, he hesitated for a while, and said slowly: "Still no news from him?" The voice didn't sound as flustered as the person behind him, and it seemed very calm, but it shouldn't be too old.
The man standing in the crowd nodded, and said anxiously: "No, our people are still investigating, maybe the boss is right, if you want to finish him off completely, you must use some extraordinary means, let's do it early, don't delay any longer, otherwise it will be exposed soon, and it won't be so easy at that time." ”
As soon as this person's words fell, the man with his back to him suddenly lowered his tone and said coldly: "I know what to do, I don't need you to teach me, let alone use the boss to press me, if you dare to talk to me like this again, I will kill you!"
The man standing at the front of the crowd was stunned for a moment, hurriedly bowed, and said in a trembling voice, "Yes." His body trembled, and he didn't dare to say anything more.
The mysterious man standing with his back seemed to sigh, and said slowly: "I just don't disdain to deal with him in this way, it's not a hero's doing, I prefer a fair fight with him." He paused as he spoke, as if he had thought of something, shook his head, and then continued: "Let's all go down, and prepare to do it tonight." ”
Hearing his words, the people standing in the room slowly withdrew from the room, and the person who had just spoken showed a relaxed smile on his face, took a long breath, withdrew, and closed the door by the way.
After everyone went out, the man who was originally facing away from the door slowly turned around and sighed softly, as if there was a trace of loss. This man's face was also covered with a black veil, but he was not wearing a black coat, but a colorful costume.
This year's winter seems to be colder than in previous years, and the number of snowfalls seems to be more than in previous years.
Ruyi stood in the attic of the backyard of the Phantom Sound Pavilion, leaning on the railing and looking out, looking at the snowflakes flying in the sky, through the not too high courtyard wall, looking among the rows of footprints, hoping to find a footprint that belonged to him.
The cold of the deep winter invaded everyone here, and she didn't seem to know the cold, she was still wearing that white dress, which seemed to echo the snow white of the sky, and gradually blended in, but at this time she seemed a little lonely, curled up, as if she urgently needed a wide and warm embrace.
The sky was getting dark, but it was almost the same as the day, the only difference was that the sun in the sky became the moon at this time, but the bright and bright moonlight on the white earth seemed brighter, as bright as day.
Winter nights are often even colder, and people have gradually returned to their homes, burrowed into their own bed, and gradually fell asleep.
However, there were still some people who did not sleep, and still walked back and forth on the streets, but only around the Phantom Sound Pavilion, these were all the subordinates of Fengyun Castle, and they only had one purpose now, and that was to protect the Phantom Sound Pavilion from any suspicious people from approaching.
A horse broke the silence of the night, walked along the white street with cheerful steps, stopped at the back door of the Phantom Sound Pavilion, and then got off the horse A person was Shangguan Yunjie.
Shangguan Yunjie has been living in the Phantom Sound Pavilion for the past few days, to be exact, he is just staying in the Phantom Sound Pavilion, not coming here to rest and sleep, he has not slept well with his eyes closed for several days, and he will come here at night every day after dealing with the affairs of Fengyun Castle to fulfill his promise to Wuxin. But even if there is no unintentional advice, as a friend, he has the obligation to protect the friends around him, and for friends, he and Wuxin are the same kind of people.
"Brothers have worked hard. After Shangguan Yunjie got off the horse, he looked at the people around him and said seriously, this is his heartfelt words, after all, on such a cold night, these people were deprived of the hot kang head they should have, and they should feel grateful in their hearts, although they are their own subordinates.
When everyone heard Shangguan Yunjie's words, the chill that originally invaded their whole bodies instantly dissipated a lot, and they suddenly felt that it was not so cold, and the young master personally accompanied them here every night, so they didn't have any complaints. It was also a kind of luck for them to meet such a master, but Shangguan Yunjie had never regarded them as subordinates.
The night is getting deeper, and I see that another dark night is about to pass safely, but Ruyi still has no sleep. Sitting on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at the place where Wuxin had stood more than once, the window that was always willing to be opened for Wuxin. It was as if I had gone back in time in an instant, and I remembered a lot of memories.
Strange to say, every time he came to his room, he seemed to only stand there, as if in this huge room, only that small area belonged to him.
Suddenly, a fierce fight erupted at the back door of the Phantom Sound Pavilion, breaking the original silence of the night. Shangguan Yunjie, who hadn't had a good rest for a few days, jumped up from a chair in the hall on the first floor in surprise, looked around in a panic, and then saw that someone had broken through the guards at the door and rushed into the courtyard.
Shangguan Yunjie didn't have time to think about it, wiped the remaining saliva from the corner of his mouth, and was about to rush to the door to support, but heard Ruyi's voice from upstairs.
"Who are you!?" Although I didn't see the person who spoke, this voice Shangguan Yunjie was very familiar, and it was indeed Ruyi's voice.
Shangguan Yunjie didn't have time to hesitate, his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he hurriedly rushed to the second floor. rushed to the door of Ruyi's room and kicked the door open.
But just as the door opened, Shangguan Yunjie was suddenly shocked, because there was a figure in a gorgeous costume in the room, approaching Ruyi step by step. I didn't have time to think about it, so I flew up and kicked the chair closest to the door out of the way, and flew to the back of the man!
I saw that the man heard the loud noise coming from the door, and he had quickly turned around, saw the oncoming chair, sneered, dodged sideways, and stared coldly at Shangguan Yunjie who suddenly appeared.
Shangguan Yunjie looked at the masked man who was already close to Ruyi, and did not dare to act rashly, because he was afraid that the other party would hold Ruyi hostage in his hands in a hurry, and it would be too passive and risky at that time.
Ruyi saw Shangguan Yunjie coming, and the originally slightly flustered mood gradually calmed down, and he felt a lot more at ease. The appearance of the masked man was indeed a little too sudden, Ruyi was looking at the window in a daze, and then the masked man suddenly jumped in through that window.
She thought it was unintentional at first, but after being surprised, she realized that the person who came was not the person she had been expecting, so she shouted in surprise, and it happened to be heard by Shangguan Yunjie downstairs.
"I advise you not to meddle in your affairs, I'm just here to take her away today, I don't want to make more trouble, don't force me to kill. The masked man looked at Shangguan Yunjie and said coldly, as if he didn't take Shangguan Yunjie in front of him dressed as a rich boy in fine clothes.
Shangguan Yunjie snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Don't think about it, you want to take him away, unless you kill me first!" After speaking, he glared coldly at the masked man, with a determined face.
He swore that no matter what, he would not take a step back......
