The man in the felt hat was a strangely dressed young man, and he touched his beard, took off the felt hat, and seven or eight small braids, which had been tucked together in the hat, fell down.

The young man's name is Huangfu, he came from outside Xishu, I don't know why, but yesterday he followed Yang Huzi into the imperial capital, Guo Xiaojiu guessed in his heart that he should have something to do with the person in the carriage.

"Coming?" Guo Xiaojiu turned around, he looked at Huangfu, and Huangfu also looked at him.

After a long time, they walked towards each other, like ordinary friends meeting, but they were not friends.

Even the enemy, their only intersection is above the head of Longdong City, and the emperor owes Guo Xiaojiu a drink.

Today, I don't know if the emperor came to pay off the wine he owed last time.

"I didn't expect to see you in this place. Huangfu still spoke strangely.

At this time, the two of them have already faced each other, Huangfu is shorter, but his hair is tied up very high, and at a cursory glance, it is not much different from Guo Xiaojiu's height.

"I didn't expect you to appear in the Imperial Capital City. The corners of Guo Xiaojiu's mouth rose slightly, and he said with a smile.

After two more sentences, Huangfu seemed to feel a little embarrassed, he nodded at Guo Xiaojiu, and stopped talking a few times.

"You still owe me a drink, I happen to have a wine shop in the West Market now, why don't you go over and sit down and return that drink by the way?" Guo Xiaojiu's hand was already tightly gripping the handle of the knife, and if he was not careful, the saber would come out of the sheath.

"Not necessarily. The emperor replied with some determination.

A branch seemed to be unable to bear the weight of the unmelted snowflakes, and suddenly broke from the branch and swayed to the ground.

The branch just landed on the ground between Guo Xiaojiu and Huangfu, and the branch flicked a few times, and the snowflakes on it scattered in all directions.

The wind rose, and the two of them shot almost at the same time, right in this alley.

Guo Xiaojiu didn't choose to draw his knife in the end, the two of them intersected with their fists and feet, and they had fought more than ten times in the blink of an eye, regardless of each other.

After the two palms collided, they took three or four steps back and opened up the distance again.

I don't know who put away his hand first, a smile appeared on his face, and the other party also closed his hand.

Huangfu didn't seem to have any mustard this time, and patted his shirt lightly: "Someone wants to see you, so I'm looking for you." ”

As if he had known that this was the result, Guo Xiaojiu nodded slightly, which was regarded as an answer.

Huangfu put on a felt hat, covered his face, and pulled his hair up, unable to see his original appearance, he turned around and began to walk towards the alley.

Rubbing lightly on the handle of the knife, Guo Xiaojiu gritted his teeth, but still made up his mind, it is better to go and see it first, than to go back to the wine store and think quietly.

The cold eyes behind the curtain of the carriage seemed to feel extremely familiar to him, but he was not sure if he had seen it somewhere.

The two of them walked out of the streets and alleys one after the other, not along Suzaku Street, but along a small road, towards Yanping Gate.

After walking far away, it was not until he saw the outline of Yanping Gate that Huangfu glanced back and made sure that Guo Xiaojiu was following him.

In the blink of an eye, they had reached the bottom of the city, and the sergeants defending the city blocked the way. Huangfu took out a token from his bosom, and couldn't make out what was written on it, and several sergeants defending the city hurriedly and respectfully moved out of the way.

Huangfu beckoned to Guo Xiaojiu at this time, Guo Xiaojiu's feet sped up a little, and the two went out of the city side by side.

Outside the city was a wilderness, and Huangfu continued to move forward, Guo Xiaojiu always holding his hand on the scabbard.

After walking out for a long time, the emperor slowly stopped, raised his head, and looked at a pavilion that stood by the stream, and among them was a beautiful young girl, looking at the riverside.

Huangfu turned around, made a gesture of invitation to Guo Xiaojiu, and turned his back and stopped looking.

Looking at the back, Guo Xiaojiu's fists clenched gently, and his feet slowed down a little, wanting to escape, but now that he has come here, if he wants to go back, he will definitely be stopped by Huangfu, so he can only go forward.

Standing in the pavilion is a girl in a black dress, the girl is not tall, that is, the height of an ordinary woman in the Tang Dynasty, but from the back, it is already a lot more amazing and moving than those dancing girls who are a little beautiful.

Guo Xiaojiu walked into the pavilion, did not speak immediately, stood behind the woman, but breathed a sigh of relief, and sat on the stone bench.

The woman looked at the stream, and he looked at the grass and trees on both sides of the stream in the distance.

There was a bird that had not migrated to the south, slipping on the frozen water, as if it had seen a fish under the water, pecking gently on the ice.

Unfortunately, the birds can't cut through the ice, and the fish can't be eaten.

The girl in the black dress seemed to feel a little, and then she slowly turned around, holding a folding fan in her hand and wearing a hairpin on her head. She is very beautiful, and she doesn't need this kind of ordinary woman's decoration at all, but she still chooses to wear it on her head.

"I'm a lot like it. The woman in the black dress said slowly.

"Woe Girl. Guo Xiaojiu spat out his words lightly, but he didn't know how to say it.

He knew what the water meant, so he looked at the birds, the ice, and the fish that swam in the ice.

The girl is a disaster water, she once accompanied Guo Xiaojiu into the disaster water of the Soul Castle, and she also lent Guo Xiaojiu the disaster water for his life for ten days when Guo Xiaojiu's oil ran out of oil.

No one knows how she did it, but if it weren't for her, Guo Xiaojiu wouldn't have been able to sit under the gazebo and sit behind her today.

"Long time no see, Guo Xiaojiu. There was no expression on his face, and his eyes were very cold, like looking at an ordinary stranger, but he only knew the other person's name and surname.

I don't know how long the two of them were silent, Guo Xiaojiu finally sighed, he had already let go of the hand holding the scabbard, he believed that the disaster water would not hurt him.

"Thank you, you don't owe me anything. Guo Xiaojiu lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at the expression on Wo Shui's face.

The moment he heard this, Wo Shui felt that a thunderbolt suddenly sounded in his head, could it be that there is really no one in the world who is worthy of her love, even if it is him Guo Xiaojiu?

Misfortune held the folding fan tightly in her hand, and in order to hide her trembling hands, she carried her hands behind her back. In order not to let Guo Xiaojiu see that her eyes were already full of tears, she twisted her head away.

He said she didn't owe him anything. That is, the last bit of contact between him and her will be severed by him.

"I owe you and will pay it back to you later. Guo Xiaojiu seemed to see that the mood of the troubled water suddenly fell, and hurriedly explained: "I now have a liquor store in Chang'an, and when I make enough money, I will return it to you immediately." ”

Originally, when she heard Guo Xiaojiu's previous sentence, she just breathed a sigh of relief, and the latter sentence made Wo Shui's whole heart ache together, how much did she owe him in her previous life? In exchange for such torture in this life? Between her and him, is there only money?

"You don't owe me either. Woe Shui's voice was muffled, and she suppressed the selfish thoughts in her heart.

He never belonged to her, he belonged to the woman who dared to take him from thousands of miles of yellow sand to the white-clothed gate of the Tianshan Mountains.

Since there is nothing left to talk about, let's forget all about the past.

Woe Shui turned around and continued to turn her back to Guo Xiaojiu, she looked at the stream flowing under the ice, she didn't howl and cry, just whimpered without any sound.

Today, she just wanted to know if he had her in his heart, but she was still disappointed.

She said that she hated him, but loved him even more. It was, and it is, and it is now.

Looking at the back of the troubled water, Guo Xiaojiu's fists were clenched tightly, and he also remembered those days, not how happy or happy they were, but she was her, not someone else.

She is still wearing the hairpin given by Guo Xiaojiu, and she is still holding the black folding fan in her hand.

During these times, she may have thought about him countless times, and suppressed the idea of going to him countless times. Guo Xiaojiu thought of this, and he felt that what he owed her now was more than just the ten days.

"I left the imperial capital in three days. Woe said suddenly.

Guo Xiaojiu didn't answer, he looked at her back, stunned.

"Let's go. Woe Shui's shoulders were already visibly trembling slightly, but he still mustered up the courage to say such a sentence.

After hearing this, Guo Xiaojiu slowly got up, and in the wine shops in the city, there were still Ning Buji waiting for him to go back.

He began to walk in the direction of the city, to escape, and he walked faster and faster, without looking back.

She felt a pinprick pain in her heart when she heard the footsteps fade away, and she hurriedly turned around to keep him, but he was already far away.

Her tears burst down the embankment.

The ice slowly broke through a crack, and the birds hurriedly flapped their wings, their paws reaching under the water, caught the fish, and flew away into the sky.

"When you left, my heart was gone, but you didn't take me. Woe looked at the broken ice and wept.

"In this world, for young men and women, the most rare thing is to pick up the stars with bare hands, love but can't, there are thousands of people in the world, and it is rare to meet me. ”

From now on, I hope to never meet him again.
