Chapter 58: The Choice

Although it was not yet there, Yun Shu was already sleepy. She had been running around during the day, and she hadn't even slept in the afternoon, and now she was carried all the way back by the Taoist chief.

"Are you sure you're going back? Don't you see the fireworks? There won't be any fireworks tomorrow." ”

She was so sleepy that she only hummed a few nasal sounds softly from her nasal cavity.

"Okay, okay, then don't lie about it tomorrow. Rong You, help seal her ears. ”

He put the latter sentence very lightly, and Yun Shun was obviously asleep. The street is too noisy, so she can sleep more peacefully. The two of them returned to the empty inn, and the bored boss who was sitting behind the counter was still a little surprised: "Dao Chief, you are back so early?"

"The apprentice is sleepy. He obviously didn't want to talk nonsense and went straight upstairs. Rong He turned a corner and returned to the boss, and put a tael of silver on the counter: "Boss, I will ask you about something." ”

Only then did the boss realize that the person in front of him was a man, and when he saw the silver, he laughed all over his face: "Rong and Gongzi are very attentive today, just ask if there is anything!"

"Who is that team outside today? ”

"Outside-" He rolled his eyes twice and patted his head: "That's Xie Yuan, the general of Zhenguo, who has been on the border a few years ago, and brought all his family members over, and this time he came back as if he had won the battle." ”

"And what about the man in the sedan chair?"

"Naturally, it's his wife and daughter. ”

"Gone?"

"No, what else do you want to hear from the guest officer?" The boss looked puzzled: "I'm a small ordinary person, and I don't know a lot of things." Hmmm—"

He scratched his ears and cheeks and thought for a long time, and finally added: "His wife's name is Gu Zijin, and his daughter's name is Xie Wanyan, who is twelve years old this year. ”

“...... Twelve years old?" Rong He seemed to have heard something extraordinary, and hurriedly asked, "When did General Xie go to the border?"

"Six years — maybe seven years ago? ”

After listening to the boss's words, Rong He did not have a relieved expression on his face. He just remained silent, nodded, and slowly went upstairs.

"It's weird. The boss was still thinking to himself. He didn't know what he was saying that had made the guest's mind even more confused. Rong You's footsteps were a little sluggish and he went upstairs, pushed open the door, and saw the Taoist chief sitting by the window, turning his teacup in his hand. The sky was full of lights and shadows, sprinkling a warm light on his figure. Yun on the bed slept peacefully at will, and smacked his lips, not knowing what he dreamed of.

"I saw it," he suddenly opened his mouth softly, "I saw the little girl in the sedan chair, she was really like Yun Xian." ”

The Dao Chief's tone was as if announcing his own death, and Rong You's heart trembled, and then he sank sullenly.

"Then you—" He opened his mouth, as if the mouth was not his own, "yes, not necessarily, right? there are so many people in the world who look alike......

But the Taoist chief did not speak. Rong He has known him for so long, and he has never seen him show such a helpless and sad expression. He suddenly remembered Zhen Dan's words again, could it be that the appearance of this incident meant that Yun had another chance to leave Qingxuan?

"Let's assume first, no matter what Yun is thinking, if she is really the general's daughter, will you let her go?"

"I ...... I would, that's her parents. The Daoist's voice was filled with some indescribable emotion.

"So now with Yun at will, what if she doesn't want to leave?"

The Taoist seemed to understand something at once, and jumped down from the window. In fact, he has always lived a very transparent life, but when he meets people around him, he will fall into some strange circles that others can't understand. He placed the teacup in his hand on the table, and pulled out his bronze mirror from the palm of his hand. There is no human face in the mirror, but chaos. He shook the mirror, and said to Rong He eagerly: "I'll go to the general's mansion to put a little ghost, I must know if Yun Qian is their daughter." You stay here and wait for me!"

"I'm not going to stay here - hey!"

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, the Taoist chief jumped out of the window. He ran to the window and looked down, the road was still crowded with tourists, but the shadow of the Taoist was gone. He retreated to the table, quietly looked at Yun Xian who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and said to himself, "Little Nizi, you have to be fine." ”

There was an exclamation from the street, it was a sign of fireworks. Large fireworks burst one after another in the night sky full of bright lights, which looked particularly brilliant in this Jinling City full of laughter. In any case, the night sky will be lit up by countless fires tonight. But the people under the fireworks have their own hearts.

The clouds were asleep at random, and the sound of fireworks could not be heard.

Rong He stood by the window in a heavy voice, the brilliant fireworks reflected in his eyes, swallowed up by the darkness, and there was no trace of it.

The Taoist had just come out of the general's mansion and walked on the bustling streets, but it seemed that he was the only one walking.
