Chapter 81: Tenderness Like Water

Sima Chun then said goodbye to Dongguo Xiu and wanted to go back to the inn, because he was in a hurry, he no longer went to the secret road, turned over on the roof, and rose and fell along the scattered pavilions, and had reached the main street. At that time, it was past the third watch, and except for the street lamps swaying in the cold wind, the streets were lifeless and lifeless.

When I returned to the inn, the store had already closed, but there was still a candle in the guest room on the second floor with a faint yellow light. Sima Chun jumped up to the second floor, and was about to push the window, only to see the candlelight in the guest room next to him also light up.

"Who!"

Before he could finish speaking, a man pushed open the window and leaned out of his body, holding a long sword in his hand and pointing at him. The light was dim, but the man's face was faintly visible.

"Brother Yuan, it's me!"

"Oh, it's big brother, why didn't you knock on the door, but walked through the window?" Yuan Fu put away his sword and said with a smile: "It's too late, brother, let's rest, my sister-in-law may still be waiting for you......"

As he spoke, the window next to him opened, and Murong Xue poked out half of his face with a candle, "Come in, it's windy outside!"

Sima Chun nodded, and was just about to step in with one foot, but turned around and called Yuan Fu again: "There is something, I'll look for you later." ”

Yuan Fu scratched his head and was about to agree, but suddenly thought that the two of them had been running around for days, and they were already exhausted, and Murong Xue was in a weak state, so it was better not to interrupt them in the middle of the night. So he smiled and said, "Hey, I'm still very busy, you better rest first, what do you have to say, wait for tomorrow, ah?"

"It's a big deal, I'll come to you in a moment!" said him, stooping down and jumping into the room, closing the window tightly.

==***==

As soon as he came back, Murong Xue's tendons eased slightly, with a peach blossom-like smile on his face, while dusting him off the dust on his body, and on the other hand, he made a basin of hot water to burn his feet.

At this time, Sima Chun's heart was filled with a bad thought, after all, Zhou Yi had left the capital for more than half a month, and he had to wait for himself to rush over again, Zhou Yi had been on the mountain for at least half a month. If Taiji Mountain is a trap, the consequences will be unimaginable!

In a moment of thought, he poured himself a cup of hot tea and sat down on the chair next to the coffee table. Before the cup of tea was finished, Murong Xue brought a basin of hot water and put it in front of him, and before Sima Chun could speak, she was about to lift his slippers and wash his feet.

"What are you doing here?" Sima Chun was taken aback and asked with a frown.

"It's cold, you're running around outside, how can you rest without burning your feet?" Murong Xue Wan'er smiled, with a motherly smile on her face, "I can't do anything else with you, but I can still handle these trivial things." ”

Sima Chun put the tea aside, bent down and pulled her arms, and helped her up, without a trace of smile on his face, "Whether I am the Zoroastrian son who shines with infinite glory at the beginning, or the wandering and down-and-out tourist in the rivers and lakes today, I will always be Sima Chun to you! I will no longer let you wander away, and giving you happiness is the greatest pursuit of my life! You could have lived a comfortable life, but you ...... for me."

"Brother Chun, this is my choice, I have no regrets because of such a decision!" Murong Xue's eyes flashed with crystal tears, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her face was full of happy smiles, "I have always felt that I am luckier than Sister Yan, because I can be by your side and soothe your scarred heart when you are covered in bruises!"

Sima Chun twisted his head, two lines of hot tears welled up, turned his back, and said in a choked tone: "Xue'er, you have suffered in the past two years!"

Murong Xue leaned over and gently hugged his waist, her tone was extremely warm, and she comforted him: "Although you have been forbearance on the surface, I know that you are a bloody man, you should be so ambitious, and go down the unfinished road of your fathers, it is a blessing that I don't support your hind legs, not to mention, you still have a blood feud!"

Sima Chun shook his head and smiled bitterly, a warmth flowed by, and all the troubles were forgotten in an instant!

"Don't worry, I must give you a life you once longed for!"

"No! Brother Chun, don't care too much about what will happen to me in the future, you have your business, and what you bear is not only the expectations of Murong Xue alone, but also your father's deathbed trust, and the expectations of thousands of pairs of eyes of Zoroastrianism! The peace of the Western Regions is related to the peace of the whole world, and when Sister Yan desperately rescued her, not only because of her affection for you, but also because of her dissatisfaction with that evil torrent! If you are tired in your heart, just think about this, no one should be an obstacle on your way, including me!"

Sima Chun was extremely shocked in his heart, he slowly turned around, and saw that Murong Xue's eyes were firm, and his weak face was a little resolute that he had never had before!

"Cher, thank you!"

Murong Xue's expression was fluttering, and an inscrutable emotion flowed between her eyebrows, "You don't have to thank me, I am also selfish, and I also want to tie you firmly to my side! But I can't, my father taught me many times before his death, girls must learn to let go, a person with a wild nature, you can't catch it!"

Sima Chun was stunned, and when he heard her euphemistic tone and full of sadness, he wanted to persuade her. Murong Xue smiled slightly, raised her jade hand slightly, and pointed between his lips, "You go to Brother Yuan Fu, you will make a mistake if you go late." ”

Sima Chun couldn't help but sigh, there is such a virtuous woman in the world, how can God bear to destroy her!

The two looked at each other, knew each other, and there was no need to say it anymore.

==***==

Yuan Fu had just turned off the lights, and suddenly heard Sima Chunlai knocking on the door, and wondered in his heart, it seemed that he really had something important. So they lit a candle and welcomed him in.

"I'm going to Taiji Mountain, I'll leave tonight, I need to tell you something. Sima Chun stepped forward and directly showdown without saying anything, and he didn't seem to care about Yuan Fu's feelings at all.

Yuan Fu was dumbfounded, stunned in place for a long time and didn't come back to his senses. He lowered his shoulders and looked back to him weakly, "Please don't do whatever you want like this, okay?"

"Yuan Fu, you are Zhou Yi's best friend, right?"

He looked at Sima Chun's serious expression, and said that this sentence was clearly the prelude to bitterness, so he shook his head with a calm face and said, "It depends on what you want to say next......

"Zhou Yi is in danger, and he may ...... at any time"

Having said that, the two of them are like mirrors, Zhou Yi has always had many disasters, and his identity is so special, there are not a few people who are worried about him, Yuan Fu immediately asked: "What does my brother want me to do, say it!"

Sima Chun sighed and patted him on the shoulder, "This is the real Yuan Fu ......"

"Come on, this favor is owed to Zhou Yi first, and when he comes back safely, he will invite me to drink the best wine in the capital!" He twisted his head and let out a sigh, obviously very depressed in his heart.

Getting back to business, Sima Chun said: "Taiji Mountain is a place of nine deaths and one life, Zhou Yi is bold enough to go, it is easy to fall into the trap of others, I will rush over tonight, I hope he has not gone up the mountain yet!"

"How is it possible!" Yuan Fu immediately opened his voice and shouted loudly, "He has been off for half a month, even if he leaves, he should arrive at Taiji Mountain, how do you say you are chasing him?"

"That's exactly why I'm coming to you. With the fastest horse in the capital, it is difficult to reach Baihe Mountain before him, but there is one person who can. ”

"Who!"

"Yu Xi. She can control that divine beast, and she can travel thousands of miles every day, this is the only way. ”

When Yuan Fu heard this, he shook his head again and again and said: "Don't you see how stiff they were in Huaichu at the beginning, these two people who were originally very good, were stirred up by a magpie, and they became enemies who never got along! Especially that Yu girl, Brother Zhou was wrong first, and she refused to explain to her, I don't think she will save Brother Zhou." ”

"The more Miss Yu is like this, the more it shows that she cares about Brother Zhou, Huai Chu's incident is just an estrangement, and if she says it, nothing will be gone, but Taiji Mountain is a matter of life and death, Miss Yu understands the reason, if she is in trouble with Zhou Yi, she will definitely save him. ”

"Are you sure?" said Yuan Fu with an incredulous look.

"Don't worry, I'm sure. As soon as the tone of the conversation changed, he frowned again, "The only problem now is how to find her quickly!"

Yuan Fu patted his chest and said confidently: "This matter is on me, as long as she hasn't returned to Wuxiang Mountain, I can find her!"

"And be fast, time is already very tight, you can't hesitate for a moment!"

"Then let's go now!"

As he spoke, he took his winter coat and put it on as he walked, and before Sima Chun could leave, he had already arrived at the door.

"Oh, yes!"

As soon as he turned around, he took out a few ingots of silver from his arms, put them on the table, and smiled, "Just leave, I'm afraid the store will curse!"

After taking two steps, he turned back and thought that he had forgotten that the door was locked, so he jumped out of the window and said goodbye with his fists clenched.

After seeing Yuan Fu get on the horse and leave, Sima Chun did not hesitate and hurriedly went upstairs. As soon as he entered the door, Murong Xue had already packed his bags, wrapped himself tightly, turned around reluctantly in front of him, and said with a smile: "Is it good-looking?"

Sima Chun felt more and more that the woman in front of him had become an inseparable shadow in his life.

"I'll take you back to the window today, do you dare?" Sima Chun looked at her with a sly face, and a smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

Murong Xue hugged his arm tightly, looked out the window, and said calmly: "What are you afraid of, I wear it so thickly, it won't hurt if you fall!" The two looked at each other and smiled, Sima Chun took her in his arms, jumped over, and the two fell down. Facing the night wind, the two rode together and disappeared into the vast night.

==***==

After Zhou Yi left the capital that day, he hurried to Taiji Mountain under the stars. A month later, it has reached the boundary of Henan, and the main peak of Taiji Mountain is in the depths of Taihang Mountain.

At the end of the year, the people prayed for a good harvest in the coming year, so no one went up to the mountains to hunt at that time. Zhou Yi didn't know the trend of the mountains and rivers there, and he didn't dare to venture in, so he visited some old people in the Taihang area about the legend of Taiji Mountain.

On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, according to the climate of previous years, the hinterland of Taihang Mountain has already been covered with snow over the waist, but this year's heavy snow has not yet arrived. Still, the misty landscape is still the same. Coincidentally, in the afternoon of the same day, a gust of wind suddenly blew, Zhou Yi looked at the continuous foothills of Taihang Mountain, which could be a blue sky, which was an excellent time for climbing.

So, he abandoned his horse and walked up Mount Taiji alone.

(Murong Xue is very wise, if Yu Xi could have her strength, she and Zhou Yi would not have come to this point.) Good night, friends, when you see this chapter tomorrow morning, remember to vote for O(∩_∩)Oha!)
