Outside the col stood a man on the bluestone, gorgeously dressed, with a cold and noble attitude.

It was a woman, watching them walk slowly.

Opposite the woman stood three men, three men with swords in their hands.

The three men drew their swords and stabbed out, stabbing quickly and fiercely, and more accurately.

The three men screamed like excited and hungry beasts in the night, and the beast that found food may have made its sounds.

The woman did not move, there was no sword in her hand, there was no sword or any other weapon, she just stood quietly, her attitude cold and noble, her eyes calm and steady.

It's a pity that she doesn't have a sword in her hand, and if she does, she will definitely fight with them.

The sword light swept to her side, and suddenly disappeared, and the three sword lights suddenly died under the other sword light, and the three people also died under that sword light.

Bai Yun saw that this man was holding a withered branch in his hand.

The blood slowly slipped from the dead branches, and it didn't fall quickly.

Bai Yun suddenly stopped, staring at this person quietly, this is a woman, and it doesn't seem to be a woman, "Are you waiting for someone?"

Ye Guyun raised his head, his eyes widened, this woman who was not a woman was what he had ever seen.

This man is a Westerner!

Guixi is not a woman, but she looks more like a woman than a woman, more feminine, he said, "Yes." ”

The corners of Bai Yun's mouth tightened, and he said, "Everything turns into a sword, and a sword returns to the west?"

"Yes. The Guixi people threw away the dead branch and walked towards Ye Guyun, and when he passed by Bai Yun's side, Ye Guyun had clearly seen that the muscles on Bai Yun's body were trembling and shaking slightly.

He didn't glance at Bai Yun, his eyes fell on Ye Guyun, and he said for a long time, "You come with me." ”

Bai Yun didn't speak, hugged Mei Niang and slowly left, disappearing in the night.

The Guixi people did not leave, waiting for Ye Guyun, Ye Guyun was looking at the hair that was blacker than the night, and the people who were lonelier than the night.

He nodded for a long time.

Guixi people walked in front, and Ye Guyun slowly followed behind.

Ye Guyun followed the Guixi people to the edge of the pool, the water in the pool was light and cheerful, the fish inside kept turning in circles with the bluestones, the Guixi people stopped and turned to stare at Ye Guyun, "You killed seven swords?"

"Yes. ”

"You killed well. ”

Ye Guyun didn't understand, but he knew that he must have something to say, although he didn't know what he was talking about, he already felt an inexplicable sourness.

The Guixi said, "Now that you have paid back your blood debt, what are your plans for the future?"

Ye Guyun was silent.

He felt empty, without a hint of being alive, and he almost wanted to say dead because he really didn't want to live.

He didn't want to live, because he was tired, and he was even more tired.

The kind of boredom and disgust that goes deep into the bone marrow and deep into the soul may not be something that everyone can experience.

Guixi sighed, "So you want to retreat to the mountains and forests?"

Ye Guyun nodded.

This may be the best way to understand life, and he no longer wants to ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, he thought of Ye Xiaofeng, and he suddenly wanted to wait for her in that place, and slowly grow old together, just like when he was a child, and slowly grow older.

Guixi laughed, "You can't do that." ”

"Why? Why should I stay on the rivers and lakes?"

"You have one. ”

"Please be clear. ”

The Guixi people didn't say anything explicit, just said a poem, he said, "The leaves fall and the disaster stars appear, and the seven swords return to the west." ”

Ye Guyun didn't understand, "Seven swords turned into the west?"

"Yes. The Guixi man said, "As long as you kill seven swords, I will find you to duel." ”

When he said this, his person seemed to be a sword, a sword that killed people invisibly, but there was no sword in his hand, nothing at all.

Guixi held a dead branch, and he suddenly stared at Ye Guyun and did not approach.

The sword in Ye Guyun's palm trembled slightly.

"Why are you dueling with me?"

Guixi didn't say why, but handed him a wooden box, and then stayed quietly not far away and waited to see the expression on Ye Guyun's cheeks.

The box was not big, and when the wooden box was opened, Ye Guyun's heart seemed to fall into a cold and bone-chilling pool.

He could barely breathe, he couldn't live.

This is actually a woman's head, Ye Xiaofeng's head.

"Why did you kill her?"

The Guixi people still did not answer this sentence, but said lightly, "After three days, there will be no life and no death." ”

After he finished speaking, he left, without looking at Ye Guyun more.

Ye Guyun didn't look up, staring at his head quietly, and he suddenly fell softly.

It was dusk when the bones were buried, and the remnants of the sun were red like blood flowing from his body, and he slowly walked along the path towards the White Mansion.

There are no guards in the White Mansion, and there is money floating everywhere.

It's quiet inside, there isn't even a ring, where is the mourning hall? Ye Guyun couldn't find it, he suddenly wanted to go and see Mei Niang, even if it was the last look, it was good.

A child walked over slowly, and suddenly said, "Your Excellency is Ye Guyun, one of the peerless twin swords?"

Ye Guyun nodded.

"Then please follow me. ”

Ye Guyun nodded.

The child was not talking, but walking in front of him, and the direction of his walk was the mourning hall, and there were more than a dozen paper figures standing outside, some tall and some short, some fat and some thin, which seemed to be more like people.

It is from here that the money is blown out, and a person sits cross-legged on the ground.

It seems to be a lot haggard than yesterday, and his appearance is a little older, he closed his eyes, Mei Niang was next to him, the clothes on his body were extremely beautiful and fresh, the phoenix color on his head trembled gently in the autumn wind, although she had closed her eyes, although she was dead, but the smile on his cheeks was still there, and her beauty had not withered.

"You're here. ”

"Yes, I'm here. ”

Before Bai Yun opened his eyes, he already knew that it was Ye Guyun who came.

Bai Xiaoye knelt quietly on one side, crying silently, there were no tears on his cheeks when he went to pick him up, but now when he faced his mother, he was already crying.

He wept but did not make a sound, because he was a man and would never cry out in pain.

"You shouldn't have come. ”

"Yes. Ye Guyun said again, "But I have to come, because I want to take a look at Mei Niang." ”

Bai Yun suddenly opened his eyes, stared at Ye Guyun coldly, suddenly sighed, and said for a long time, "This is Xiao'er, Bai Xiaoye." ”

"Bai Xiaoye?"

"Yes. Bai Yun said lightly, "This is the name given by Mei Niang." ”

Ye Guyun was silent, his heart was like a knife.

Why did she call the child's name Xiao Ye? Does she still remember that she is the daughter-in-law surnamed Ye?

Bai Yun sighed, "Finally, Mei Niang didn't see the wrong person, you still have feelings for her." ”

Ye Guyun nodded.

Bai Yun looked at Xiao Ye, Xiao Ye nodded, and suddenly walked out slowly.

The autumn wind swept up the money and floated on the child, he looked indescribably pitiful and poignant, Ye Guyun suddenly wanted to hug the child and say sorry.

"Why is there no one else here?" Ye Guyun finally couldn't help but ask.

"They're all gone, and they won't be back until three days later. ”

Ye Guyun didn't ask, this was someone else's sore spot, he didn't want to ask any more, he knew that forcing others was an extremely painful thing.

Bai Yun felt out two wine jars from the corner of the wall, the mud seal had not been opened, and he had obviously prepared it a long time ago.

There is no food, and they drink very well, because he can drink it without vegetables, they already want to get drunk, Ye Guyun wants to get drunk, and Bai Yun wants to get drunk even more.

Bai Yun smiled and said, "You don't hate me?"

"I have no reason to hate you, but I have reason to be grateful to you. ”

"Oh?"

"Thank you for taking good care of her, I can see that she has not been wronged in the slightest. Ye Guyun lowered his head and stared at Mei Niang, her beauty seemed to have bloomed in his heart, and his cheeks seemed to have been dyed with the kind of emotion that lingered to the bone but was tender like water.

He smiled and said, "He has what others have, children, family, husband, money, status,......。 ”

Bai Yun nodded, and he was also laughing, but his smile was like a hollowed sack, without a trace of strength.

He leaned in the corner of the wall, staring at Ye Guyun, and suddenly said a strange word, "Who is that woman?"

Ye Guyun knew who the woman he was talking about, the woman on the bluestone outside the mountain col, he didn't think about it, and immediately said, "Return to the West." ”

Bai Yun's face changed, and he continued, "There is a poem in recent days, I don't know if you have heard it. ”

"What about that?"

"The leaves fall and the stars appear, and the seven swords return to the west. ”

Ye Guyun's face also changed, "I've heard of it, I just heard it for a short time." ”

Bai Yun was moved, "That woman told you?"

"Not bad. ”

"He's a Guixi?"

Ye Guyun was surprised, "You also know the origin of this person?"

"Hmm. Bai Yun pondered, and said, "Know a little, he learned a long-lost sword book in the rivers and lakes." ”

"What sword?"

"Return to the West Sword Spectrum. ”

The cold sweat on Ye Guyun's forehead had slipped down, and he said, "A sword to return to the west?"

"Yes. There was also a faint look of fear in Bai Yun's eyes.

Ye Guyun held the money for his death, but he forgot to sprinkle it, and his expression seemed to have flown into the distance, beside the woman who was not a woman.

He suddenly said, "He asked me to fight a duel, and after three days, there will be no life, and there will be no death." ”

"You're definitely going to go. ”

"Yes, I have no reason not to go. ”

"You have a reason not to go, at least one. ”

Ye Guyun lowered his head and said, "I find him to duel, whether it is dead or alive, it is the same enjoyment for me." ”

He hurriedly took a sip of wine and said, "Even if I die, I am willing to die." ”

Bai Yun was deeply saddened, he understood this pain very well, this is a common disease unique to prodigal sons, they live, sometimes they don't know why, that kind of life is really disgusting, tired.

Suddenly, he took a deep sip of wine and said, "I understand you." ”

Ye Guyun was silent.

There are already two jars of wine empty in the back, they are all good at drinking, they all want to confide in each other about the pain in their hearts, the backlog of depression for many years, if they don't release it, they will never be comfortable, Bai Xiaoye stood quietly outside the door, carrying a basket, what was inside, they couldn't see.

Bai Yun nodded, he walked in and brought out a few small plates of appetizers, and then walked out slowly.

Ye Guyun smiled bitterly, "Your child is very smart. ”

"Yes. He didn't hide it, and he was deeply happy about it.

The child gradually walked away and disappeared into the night, he was finally overwhelmed by the night, Ye Guyun felt that the child was also extremely lonely.

Ye Guyun drank all the wine in the altar and suddenly stood up, "I should go." ”

Bai Yun nodded, he was still staring at the wine jar stupidly, as if he didn't want to move.

Ye Guyun looked at Bai Yun's appearance, and suddenly wanted to say a few words of comfort, but found that he didn't know what to say.

Ye Guyun strode out, and when he walked out, his heart suddenly had a feeling of being hollowed out, and that feeling was only felt at the moment when Bai Xue died.

On the road, Xiao Ye stood solemnly on the side with a lantern, he saw Ye Guyun passing, and said lightly, "Mr. Ye is leaving?"

"Yes. ”

"The younger generation has a few words to ask. ”

Ye Guyun smiled, "You say." ”

"It is said that my Lao Tzu's Lao Tzu killed your Lao Tzu?" Bai Xiaoye didn't look at Ye Guyun, and the lantern in his palm was suddenly inserted into the high wall by him.

Ye Guyun nodded, and the smile on his face had disappeared.

Bai Xiaoye said again, "It is said that you killed my Lao Tzu?"

Ye Guyun nodded.

Bai Xiaoye suddenly smiled and said, "This is a matter of course, to repay the blood debt, even my Lao Tzu did not have a trace of complaint against you." ”

Ye Guyun was silent.

Bai Xiaoye suddenly had an extra long sword in his palm, and suddenly said, "My mother died because of you, so is it only right for me to kill you?"

Ye Guyun was silent, silent and stinging.

He was indeed sorry for this child, and even more sorry for Bai Yun.

The sword was pulled out of its sheath, and a sneer appeared on his face, "Then it is only natural that I will kill you." ”

Ye Guyun nodded and exhaled deeply, "That's right, you came to kill me." ”

"I'm not my son, and I'm not that easy to talk to. ”

The sword stabbed out, a fast sword, the sword light flashed, and stabbed into Ye Guyun's body.

Ye Guyun gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain, maybe the stronger the stinging pain in his body, the stinging pain in his heart would be reduced.

Bai Xiaoye sneered, "Do you feel a lot of pain?"

"Yes. ”

Ye Guyun had fallen down in pain, and fell on the cold, hard ground, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said, "You did a good job, but why don't you prick a little more in front of you." ”

Bai Xiaoye gritted his teeth, "Wouldn't you die in that case, that would be really cheap for you." ”

Ye Guyun nodded in acknowledgement.

A person suddenly floated in the night, fluttering like a white cloud, a person like a white cloud, his shot was as mysterious as a white cloud.

White clouds!

Ye Guyun smiled bitterly, this person actually came over.

Bai Yun's hand suddenly grasped the blade of the sword, and blood slipped from the blade, including Ye Guyun's blood and Bai Yun's blood.

The sword "ding" shattered, Bai Xiaoye's body suddenly became unstable, and he sat on the ground, but the hatred in his eyes did not subside.

He stared at Ye Guyun coldly, if his eyes could kill, Ye Guyun would have died at least ten times.

"Konoleaf. ”

Bai Xiaoye gritted his teeth and lowered his head, "Yes." ”

"You are presumptuous. ”

Bai Xiaoye gritted his teeth, tears had fallen, "Yes." ”

Bai Yun sighed, "Go back quickly." ”

Bai Xiaoye turned around and left silently, not overly sad and lost control and lost his mind, and then collapsed.

Bai Yun gently pulled out the tip of the sword from Ye Guyun's body, exhaled deeply, and a look of guilt appeared on his cheeks, "You have more wounds." ”

Ye Guyun nodded and smiled bitterly, "You should let me die under his sword." ”

"Why?"

"Because Mei Niang did die because of me, I should die. ”

"You're wrong. Bai Yun's eyes were even deeper in pain, "She obviously doesn't have to die, it's me who didn't save her." ”

Ye Guyun nodded, staring at Bai Yun's eyes, and could see the pain and grief in his eyes, but he couldn't see why he was so painful.

He sighed and didn't ask Bai Yun, he never wanted to touch someone else's sore spot.

Bai Yun explained, "Maybe you will never believe that she lived to wait for you, and then died in your arms." ”

Ye Guyun was stunned.

"Maybe you don't believe it, when she is with me, she thinks about you. ”

Ye Guyun lowered his head and covered his chest, blood slowly emerging from his body, "But you ......." ”

Bai Yun suddenly interrupted him, "I'm used to it, I hope to let her die by your side one day, I know her mind very well." ”

The sadness in his eyes intensified, and he said, "I am happy for her to see her die beside you." ”

He smiled, bitterly sad, and said, "She will always think about others, never for herself." ”

Ye Guyun listened.

"He lives with me, he is righteous to me, but he is affectionate to you, so I want to die by my side, she will never do anything with you to be sorry for me, I believe in her very much. ”

Ye Guyun couldn't bear to look at the miserable sadness in his eyes, he suddenly turned his head, stared at the sky, slowly walked towards the door, and walked out.

He still had a few pieces of dying money sticking to him, and he threw it hard into the sky.

There was no light at the door, and Bai Fu seemed to have completely melted into the shadows of darkness, was this feeling what Bai Yun wanted? Could he be hoping to bury himself in this maddening, overwhelming darkness?

Is he deliberately torturing himself?

Ye Guyun walked along the path, and there was a person standing in the hexagonal pavilion with a lamp in his hand, staring at the path, as if waiting for something.

He saw Ye Guyun coming over, and suddenly greeted him.

He smiled and said, "Is it Mr. Ye?"

This person is fat, and his smile reveals the unique temperament of doing business, the kind of temperament that talks to people when he sees people, and talks nonsense when he sees ghosts, and he has a delicate temperament.

Ye Guyun also smiled, "Yes." ”

"That's great, please wait. The man whistled, and a palanquin strode in the forest not far away.

Several strong men smiled and pulled up the curtains, smiling.

Ye Guyun smiled, "Gui Gan?"

"There is a beautiful woman invited, how can the son bear to make her wait for a long time?" the man smiled, the smile was very mysterious, and said, "The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold." ”

"Which one is it?"

"Of course, the famous vinegar lady. There was a slight look of envy on the man's face.

Ye Guyun didn't know who Mrs. Vinegar was, and he didn't want to go, he suddenly wanted to find a place to rest, that was a gutter, and it was good.

He did not go in, but departed from the side.

This person suddenly followed behind Ye Guyun, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Vinegar is the most beautiful woman in the ten miles around here." ”

Ye Guyun nodded.

"There's no reason why you shouldn't go, you're also a man, why should you avoid such a good opportunity?"

Ye Guyun was silent.

He suddenly felt that the man was annoyed and wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible, but his wound was deep, and the blood flowed faster.

The people on the side were still smiling, "Your Excellency should go up." ”

"Why?"

"You are seriously injured, and you have a lot of enemies, wouldn't it be a pity if you encounter any accidents?" he said very tactfully, as if he was afraid of offending Ye Guyun, and said, "Mrs. Vinegar wants to find you by name." ”

"Why is she looking?"

"Because she has fallen in love with you, it is a blessing for you, and you need not be anxious. The man smiled and said, "When you meet, you will know how wonderful she is." ”
