Chapter 7: Cold Rain in the Night
"That kid named Leng Xun is clearly not your opponent, you are good, you fought with me for a long time, but you released water to make wedding clothes for others. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Wei Qing smiled and poured himself another glass of wine, drank it all in one gulp, and complained angrily.
Ye Jinyi couldn't remember how many times Wei Qing smiled and repeated, so she had to smile helplessly and pour wine for Wei Qing Xiao without saying a word.
And Wang Shu sat on the side to practice calligraphy, and he also pursed his lips and smiled from time to time.
"Since you don't want to win, why bother with me, otherwise, I will be the final winner today. Wei Qingxiao couldn't help it after all, put down the wine glass in his hand, raised his head and twisted his eyebrows to look at Ye Jinyi.
Wei Qing smiled, you don't really want to marry Chu Yuntang. Ye Jinyi poured herself a glass of wine, took a sip, rubbed the cup with her fingertips, and smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth, "Although, I don't know why." ”
Wei Qing smiled and heard this, raised his head and looked at Ye Jinyi carefully, Ye Jinyi was just drinking quietly at this time, as if everything that happened in this world had nothing to do with him, and the silver mask on the left side of his face covered half of his face, as if it also covered the way for others to peek into his heart.
But even if he couldn't peep, Wei Qingxiao clearly realized that Ye Jinyi had an unfathomable city, which was enough to see through the deepest secrets in a person's heart.
"What about you, since you're not here to recruit relatives, why are you here for?"
Hearing Wei Qingxiao's question, Wang Shu also stopped the pen in his hand and looked sideways at Ye Jinyi, which was also the question he was puzzled about.
Why did Jinyi suddenly appear outside Luoyang City this morning, and happened to meet him, this is too much of a coincidence.
Ye Jinyi was stunned, and most of the wine in the cup suddenly spilled.
At this time, it had been four full days since he left Tokyo, and Ren Xiaodu's situation was still not optimistic, and he, even if he knew where there was blood jade to save Ren Xiaodu, he couldn't act rashly, he could only wait for the opportunity.
And the timing is tonight.
He put down the cup, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and carefully wiped his fingers, raised his head without changing his face, and said calmly: "My father is seriously ill, and he came to Luoyang only to ask for medicine. ”
The sky is getting dark, and everyone who came to visit the competition in the cliff villa during the day has already gone down the mountain.
It was Chu Yuntang, who was worried about the things during the day, and resolutely left the three of them in Jinyi to stay in the cliff villa for the night.
Wei Qingxiao is naturally very happy, for him, the world is home.
And Ye Jinyi and Wang Xu, because of the ambush during the day, for the sake of safety, also temporarily lived in the Cliff Villa.
After dinner, Ye Jinyi went up to the listening platform alone, the night was thick, and people stood on a high place, which inevitably gave a little chill.
He sat on the carved railing, looking at the brilliant lights in the night of the cliff villa, but his heart was inexplicably blocked, like a scene in the daytime, as if an old disease was faintly attacking.
The more beautiful the place, the more likely it is that the ugliest past lurks behind it.
The brighter the place, the more it is impossible to see the hidden and unknown dangers in the darkness around you.
This may be the true portrayal of this huge and gorgeous cliff villa.
The night is getting deeper, and the danger is getting closer.
Chu Xiu didn't sleep, just reclining on the couch in a room to read a book, but looking closely, this room should be a women's boudoir.
The furnishings in the room are a little old, but they are clean and tidy, and the dust is not stained.
There was a faint sound of hurried footsteps coming from a distance, but it stopped at the door.
"Owner, something happened to the queen. The guard stopped outside the door and said, not daring to step further.
Chu Xiu raised his eyes, glanced at the figure outside the door, put the book in his hand on the table, and walked out of the room gently, as if he was afraid of disturbing something, he stood at the door of the room and said coldly: "What's the matter?"
The guard seemed to hesitate a little, and after thinking for a long time, he replied, "Miss Yu's tombstone ・・・・・・ destroyed." ”
"Hmmm. A powerful internal force emanated from Chu Xiu's palm and shot straight towards the guards.
The guard was beaten more than a foot away, fell to the ground and could not get up, spat blood, and it didn't take much effort before he fell to the ground and lost his breath.
Chu Xiuping's face suddenly turned cold after hearing those words, and his originally gloomy face became even more angry, and his black eyes became more and more gloomy.
At this time, he was like a bloodthirsty demon about to erupt, as if a raging storm was brewing, trying to destroy everything around him.
He wanted to kill, he wanted to.
The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the leaves that have turned slightly yellow are rattling on the branches, and some of the leaves can no longer withstand the ravages of the wind, and they are blown off by the wind, sweeping away the cloudy and unpredictable world.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the stars that were still faintly visible were now tightly obscured by dark clouds coming from nowhere, which made people panic for no reason.
"Tonight, it's going to rain heavily. Ye Jinyi stood on the listening platform, looking at the fading stars, feeling the hunting wind roll up his white robe, and muttered.
Chu Xiu stood in the cemetery and looked at the tombstone in front of him, the tablet engraved with "The Tomb of the Beloved Wife Jade Zhanyan".
The monument was still standing upright in the dirt, but it was broken in two lengthwise from the middle.
His fists clenched tighter and tighter, the sword in his hand tightened tighter, his eyes closed, his breathing became heavier and heavier, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and sweat slid down his forehead, but it was quickly dried by the wind.
There was a slight cool rain falling in his hair.
It's raining lightly.
"Owner, after careful inspection, the fracture of the tombstone is extremely uneven, but there are no other cracks around the fracture, and it can be concluded that it was broken by internal force. Today, there are many people in the village, and I am afraid that it is not easy to check. There was a circle of guards next to the tombstone, and they reported the inspection to Chu Xiuyi.
"Since you know that there are many people in the village, where are you today?" Chu Xiu opened his eyes and spoke word by word, and the anger on his body was so heavy that he didn't dare to look at it directly.
"The subordinates are afraid that the eldest lady will go on a business trip, so they have been protecting ・・・・・・ uh" Before the guard finished speaking, he fell to the ground with his eyes wide open covering his bloody neck.
At the same time, the other guards covered their necks at the same time, looked at Chu Xiu in disbelief, and fell to the ground in a hurry.
"Show your face with your blood. The sword in Chu Xiuping's hand was dripping blood, and the blood fell to the ground drop by drop, but he didn't know if the green grass would be born in the coming year.
He dropped the sword in his hand and walked to the broken tombstone, resting his head lightly on the tombstone. He's whimpering, he's crying, like a kid who has done something wrong.
The deep and heavy anger disappeared, leaving only the grievances and confusion that came from nowhere.
He was afraid that Yu Zhanyan would be angry, he was afraid, very afraid.
"Zhanyan, I'm sorry. Chu Xiuping, who has always been cold and arrogant, seems to have taken off all his usual disguises at this time, and has become extremely humble and pitiful, just because he is afraid that a deceased person will be angry.
The rain was heavy, wetting his hair, his clothes, and the scarlet blood left on the sword.
But as if unconscious, his slender fingers slid lightly over the words on the tablet, very carefully, very gently, as if he were caressing his lover.
Ye Jinyi was still standing on the listening platform, obviously thinly dressed but didn't seem to feel cold, but gently closed his eyes, felt the cold wind, felt the cold rain of Xijing hit his face, as if he was enjoying it, and read three words in his mouth: "Jade, Zhan, Yan." ”
After reading it, he suddenly opened his eyes and laughed, laughing very happily, laughing so much that he couldn't stand up straight on the railing, the corners of his eyes were moist, I don't know if it was rain or tears.
"Jade spreads her face. Wei Qingxiao stood in front of the window, also looking at the pouring rain outside, silently reciting these three words, as if thinking.
At this time, he was no longer cynical, and gently slapped the bone fan in his palm again and again, his eyes were very cold, like the cold and biting ice and snow in the far north.
Suddenly, his eyes tightened, and he put his finger between his nose and sniffed, as if he smelled something unusual.
