Chapter Twenty-Four: Seeing Through His Disguise

Ling Miao glanced at Yun Huang, although she was embarrassed at the moment, she still raised her head proudly, "I Ling Miao doesn't like any woman who is close to him. Do you know why I've been targeting you, because the night you came ruined my good deeds. But if it comes to you and Qingluan, I hope that the one who suffers is her!"

Ling Miao's words still shocked Yun Huang somewhat, as far as she knew, Ling Miao's affection for Xiao Yun was so deep that even if she was snubbed, she would not make such a move regardless of her image. Come to think of it, Xiao Yun did something that she couldn't accept.

That day, she didn't go to Xiao Yun.

In the next few days, the only person who appeared in front of her was Xing'er, and it was rare to see someone who made her feel comfortable, and the two sat in the courtyard chatting with each other.

Suddenly, Xing'er glanced around mysteriously and said softly: "Yun Huang, I have a confidential matter to tell you, and I guarantee that you will be relieved." ”

"Have you found out who framed me?"

"It's not!"

When Yun Huang heard this, he was a little disappointed.

"Let me tell you, Ling Miao was drunk and crazy a few days ago, do you know why?"

"Why else? ”

"No, no, no. ”

"Oh, don't sell it. ”

"A few days ago, a few distinguished guests came, and the city lord took her to socialize. I heard that during the banquet, a young man kept hinting that he had a crush on Lingmiao, and everyone thought it was a drunken talk and didn't take it seriously, who would have thought..."Xing'er suddenly choked up, approached her and whispered: "Who would have thought that the city lord would personally send Lingmiao, who pretended to be drunk, to that person's room." ”

"Ahem..."Yun Huang was drinking tea, and was shocked by her words, and she coughed non-stop when she couldn't get up or down on a sip of tea.

"Are you alright?" Apricot hurriedly patted her on the back.

Yun Huang was half smooth, and looked at Xing'er in disbelief, until he looked at her all over his body, and then said, "How do you know? Who else knows?"

"No... No, just a few of us know. Don't look at me like that, my eyes are so terrible. ”

"Nothing. Xing'er, this matter is rotten in the stomach, don't talk to others, you know?"

Xing'er was so frightened by her that she nodded hurriedly.

Xiao Yun was with Qingluan these days, until Zhao Wu came to report that Yun Huang insisted on leaving the City Lord's Mansion, and they couldn't stop him from coming to ask for instructions.

Hearing this, Xiao Yun rushed over to persuade her to no avail, and locked her up again in a fit of anger. Zhao Wu didn't know what happened between the two, but he just wondered what the city lord suddenly went crazy about, locked her up and let her go, and let her go and shut her up.

A few days later, Xiao Yun finally showed up. He looked at Yun Huang's expression and sat down opposite her, still with that signature smile on his face.

As soon as Yun Huang saw his smiling face without a trace of smile, a chill passed through his heart, and his tone was much colder in an instant, "The city lord is here, it's really a disappointment!"

Hearing this, the smile on Xiao Yun's face froze significantly.

"If you're here to drink with me, don't talk nonsense, if not, please get out immediately!"

Xiao Yun didn't respond to her, and took out the plaster to change the dressing for her, but she waved his hand away without appreciation.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you drink so much?"

Yun Huang raised his eyes to look at his patient appearance, and said, "How long are you going to lock me up? ”

"When did I say it was about you?"

"Isn't that calling me imprison??"

"You're too careful, I just want you to take care of your injuries. ”

Yun Huang was stunned for a moment, knowing that she couldn't ask anything more. After a change of words, he asked again: "Xiao Yun, what kind of person am I in your eyes?"

"It's not smart, but it's attractive. A soft color flashed in his eyes as he answered, but he quickly covered it up. After a pause, he asked rhetorically, "I don't know, what kind of person am I in Yunhuang's heart?"

Hearing this, Yun Huang turned his hand around the wine glass and stopped. smiled abruptly, and then the corners of his lips hooked an intoxicating arc, but his eyes were as cold as an ice cave.

"What kind of person are you? You are too fake and hypocritical, you don't like it, but you want to pretend how happy you are, you don't want to be merry but you show mercy everywhere, you don't want to laugh amorous but you don't like to laugh at people you don't love. Also, when you see a woman who has the value to come over and take the initiative, you can embrace her into your arms and make an affectionate look. Are you really affectionate?"

After she finished speaking, she drank a glass of wine, and then said: "You say that you are flattering the master to take care of me, but in fact, you know that I have a way to seal the fox king, so you went to great lengths to keep me, right? So you began to be kind to me, and even did not hesitate to send the first dragon bell for me, showing affection to me in front of the heroes of the world, and mending my wishes. Until I am grateful and willing to help you. ”

"Who told you these words? Lingmiao? or Qingluan?"

Yun Huang staggered to his feet with the help of the table, vigorously waved away his outstretched hand, and laughed abruptly. "They all know, but I don't. Even this so-called collusion with foreign enemies may be your means, right? Scold... A person like you will never reveal his true side in front of others, will always hide in the depths like a cunning fox, and will always show people with a mask. And everything outside of your mask is just a disguise to confuse others. However, you have deceived others, have you deceived your own heart?"

The drunkenness made her eyes as misty as fog, making it difficult to see. She didn't know that every time she said a word, Xiao Yun's smile was a little lighter, her eyebrows were a little higher, and her heart sank a little more. She didn't know that every word she said was like a knife that cut through his disguise layer by layer, until his heart was exposed without any protection.

On the other hand, Xiao Yun was no longer in his usual posture, his slightly squinted eyes were cold, his hands were clenched into fists, and his knuckles were white. He just stared at Yun Huang like this, as if he wanted to see her through.

Yun Huang felt the chill of slaughter, stared at the person with frost on his face, and after seeing his expression clearly, her face hung a smile like a flower, and her eyes were red from drunkenness, and there was a rare and fine light in her eyes, she said: "Look, this is the real you!"

"You're drunk!"

"I'm drunk, but I'm drunk! I'm so stupid, I treat you with a sincere heart, but in exchange for you to calculate me so much. ”

After some venting, the drunk Yun Huang collapsed on the table, and was then sent back.

After a while, Qingluan, who came over at some point, walked to the table and sat down with a good footwork, took a cup and poured wine. She looked at Xiao Yun, who was drinking alone with a gloomy face, and said curiously: "What's the matter?

Xiao Yun looked into the distance with confused eyes, and said after a long time: "Am I wrong, she is really different!"

Qingluan turned the wine glass in his hand and said with a playful smile: "What's different, it's just one of your stepping stones!"

Listening to Qingluan's words, Xiao Yun didn't say anything more, he fixed his gaze on the wine glass, all he thought was what Yun Huang had said, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became, this kind of complex emotions that he had never had before made him feel numb.

After a long time, he got up and walked in the direction of the Yunhuang Courtyard, and said as he went: "Stepping stones? You may all be right, but one thing is wrong, my heart with her may be true!"

The moon hung high like a silver disc, a ray of light shone into the room through the window lattice, and the reflection of a person was imprinted in front of the bed, and the reflection quietly looked at the woman who was not sleeping peacefully, and the ripples in her eyes were endless.

The sleeping woman did not have a peerless appearance, but she was like an orchid of the cliff proudly standing alone in the pure land that belonged to her, and existed beside him like air. Occasionally, a small act can stir his heart. As he got along with her more and more, unconsciously, she was like a long stream of water, penetrating into her calm heart, stirring when she was still and without fluctuations! Sometimes it was clear that it was in front of him, but it seemed to be as far away as a thousand mountains and rivers from her.

After a long time, he sighed deeply, and still whispered to himself: "Why do you want to be so special, if you were like them, you wouldn't make me so embarrassed!"

Yun Huang in his sleep may have dreamed of something unhappy, and his eyebrows frowned tightly. Xiao Yun subconsciously stretched out her hand, wanting to soothe her sorrow, but she was afraid of waking her up. In the end, he tucked the quilt into her before leaving her room.

Outside the courtyard, the moonlight stretched the shadows of the two people standing side by side. One of them closed his eyes as if in pain, grinding his teeth lightly, and spat out two words from between his teeth for a while. "Look for death!"

When the words fell, the window sash that blew suddenly in the night breeze rattled, and the night sky was still bright and starry, and in an instant, black clouds covered the moon, and the sky fell into darkness.

The impermanence of the world and the creation of people, you will never know at the time. At that time, it looked calm and waveless, but when I looked back, there was a turbulent undercurrent.

After the battle of Qiuyan Cave, a battle without gunpowder officially began. Forces from all sides began to stir and hibernate in Jingzhou. The demon clan Bai Zhi also took the opportunity to intervene, although she did not launch a real offensive, but the demon soldiers fought and destroyed it.

On the other side, the Ninth Master coveted the position of the city lord of Chutian Capital, and he gathered the gangs that opposed Xiao Yun to gather outside the city, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to benefit himself.

The most unexpected thing is that there are many of the world's first gangs.

I don't know when the sect started, and gossip began again. Say that all these things are caused by her. Everyone began to point the finger at Yun Huang again. Yun Huang was inexplicable, but he still put aside his personal grievances and fought side by side with Xiao Yun wholeheartedly.

After a few defensive battles, the situation became very stale, not to mention the war, and you had to work hard to guard against sneak attacks.

On this day, after the last of the harassing enemies had been driven out of the city, they all sat down on the ground tiredly.

Yun Huang lay on the ground regardless of it, closed his eyes and said to himself, "Hey, I've damaged so many arrow towers, it's not a way to go on like this." They are numerous, and they wear down our city defenses every day with wheel warfare, and in the long run, they can wear down the people of the city until they die of exhaustion. In its current form, our fortifications simply cannot keep up with the speed of their destruction, and if there is no assistance, I am afraid that the city defense will not last long!"

After a while, I saw that she stopped talking. Xiao Yun thought she was tired and fell asleep, so she took off her coat and prepared to cover her. No, before he could put his hand down, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at him motionlessly, her eyes were a little terrifying.

"What's wrong?"
