Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Good Offices Begin

At night, Yufu arranged for Yun'er and Zhong Yu to sleep together, and she and Zhou Yi took turns guarding Yue Zhong.

During the third watch, Yufu called Zhou Yi outside the door and whispered: "Although Yun'er is three months younger than you, she is now a big girl in her twenties. As he spoke, he paused again and looked at Zhou Yi's expression, "Your brother and sister should get closer, she has inevitably fallen into her heart over the years, and you have to untie it." ”

Zhou Yi turned his head to look at the stars in the sky, his eyes did not blink, as if he was smiling, and he looked preoccupied.

"Mother, Yi'er understands what you mean," he said to Yufu solemnly with a twinkle in his eyes, "Now is not the time to talk about the love of children. ”

He sighed, and the remaining smile on his face faded.

"I endured nine years of 'losing' my father's life, the emperor has eyes, he is still alive, Yi'er should escort her mother back to her hometown, ending all these years of life away from home. As he spoke, La Yufu sat on the bench outside the door together, "Now the third uncle's life and death are unpredictable, the Nine Dragons Jade Flute in his hand will bring us death at any time, the top priority is for us to go back safely, as for Yun'er, she must be more worried about the third uncle's injury than I am now, so my mother must not mention what she doesn't want to do in front of her." ”

Yufu shook her head, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she raised her hand to caress Zhou Yi's hair, "You are always like this, I can't talk about you, let it be you." But you have to be clear that it's a matter of time. ”

"Since this matter can be sooner or later, let's solve the problem now. ”

"Hey, maybe I'm old, and I've been thinking about your life's events for the past two years. ”

"Mother, where is Yi'er, Yi'er is still young, and her mother's face has not diminished, why are you old? You worry about Yi'er's lifelong affairs, which is caused by the entrustment of your father and the oppression of Baiheshan's heavy responsibility. Now that Baihe Mountain is in a desperate situation, after we reunite with our father, the burden in your heart has fallen, and you won't think about these nihilistic problems. ”

When Yufu heard this, she couldn't help laughing, but after laughing, she still looked at him with a calm face, "Even if you don't make it clear today, you can't be fearless, Yun'er is weak, you have to take care of her more." ”

Zhou Yi stood up in front of her, pretending to be deeply moved, "What the mother teaches is that the child should remember it. ”

As he spoke, a look of sorrow hung on his eyebrows, and when he turned his head, he looked at the undulating mountains in the distance at night, "I heard Yun'er say that it was the people of the Six Hanging Peaks who besieged the third uncle, and it seems that this place can no longer stay for a long time." ”

Yufu said: "Then when your third uncle gets better, we will leave here." ”

Zhou Yi shook his head, and didn't seem to agree with his mother's statement: "It's business as usual, and there may still be some hope of living, but once we leave in a hurry, they will inevitably guess that the third uncle is with us, and then it will be troublesome." Yuan Fu once said that Yaogui is Wu Ye's old friend, and most of the people from Liuhang Peak can find here, and most of them are also running to Longyun Village. Over the years, I have had frequent interactions with my brothers in Longyunzhai, and if I leave at this time, I will inevitably arouse their suspicion. The current situation is delicate, and the mother doesn't have to worry about it, just let Yi'er mediate with them. ”

When Yufu heard this, she was worried, "The more you say this, the more uneasy I am." It's better to return the Nine Dragons Jade Flute to Liuhang Peak, with your friendship with Yaogui, he will not embarrass you. ”

Zhou Yi said: "The Nine Dragons Jade Flute is indeed a bane in our hands, but if we return it to Wu Ye, I'm afraid we won't get the peace we want." ”

"Why?"

Zhou Yi sneered: "What kind of person Wu Ye is, and what kind of people he has, my mother must know something." At the beginning, the third uncle relied on a few rumors to make the entire Liuhang Peak unrecoverable, so that his reputation for disobedience and killing his brother is known to the world, and he has continuously sent killers to hunt down us and the third uncle over the years, presumably not only for the sake of being in the Jiulong Jade Flute. Those who dare to take risks in troubled times, he can't swallow this evil breath no matter what. ”

Yufu looked worried, and asked again: "Then what should we do to protect your third uncle to the greatest extent?"

Zhou Yi said: "Mother don't worry about it first, now they haven't suspected us, Yun'er said, the group of people who besieged the third uncle today, not a single one was left alive, if her words were credible, they wouldn't find it in a short time, after all, they didn't know my identity yet, and once the third uncle's whereabouts were exposed, it was common sense that they would leave here immediately." ”

"I'm afraid that some of them will see it, there is not a single family within a radius of more than ten miles here, they can't find your third uncle and Yun'er, and they will come back sooner or later. ”

Zhou Yi half-squinted, with a cold and disdainful look.

"Then it depends on whether Longyunzhai will send someone over tomorrow. ”

Yufu was shocked, and hurriedly asked: "This matter is extraordinary, if they want to come to search, won't your third uncle be arrested by them?"

"No, isn't there still a cellar, it's shady there, and it's just a good time for the third uncle to recuperate there these days. ”

"Most of the people who have been to that cellar Longyun Village know that it is not safe for your third uncle to hide there. ”

Zhou Yi smiled: "It's okay, mother, think about it, who will it be if someone from Longyunzhai is coming?"

"Yuan Fu?"

"Of course! The hibiscus drunk that his mother has brewed over the years is not for him to drink for nothing. Yuan Fu is a person who values love and righteousness, he is different from those friends who drink and meat, if the people of Liuhang Peak arrive in Longyun Village, Yuan Fu will tell me as soon as he gets the news, and remind me not to take in any fugitives. Zhou Yi's smiling expression disappeared immediately, "It depends on whether he will come tomorrow." ”

When Yufu heard this, she had this in her heart and couldn't sleep peacefully all night.

==***==

During the fifth watch, Zhou Yi lay alone on the haystack in the fence yard, looking up at the stars in the sky, and couldn't help sighing. At that time, it was steaming, and Zhou Yi was damp, and as soon as he got cold, he couldn't help coughing again.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps approached, and a person walked by, Zhou Yi looked up and saw Yun'er walking slowly.

"Sister Yun, why haven't you slept yet?"

Zhou Yi turned over and pulled her to sit on the edge of the haystack, Yun'er was originally a little restrained, but remembering that the market was like this when she was a child, and Zhou Yi was her brother who was like a brother, so she didn't care, so she sat down next to him.

"Are you feeling better than you used to be?"

I haven't seen her for many years, and opening her mouth is the question she is most concerned about in the past, which makes Zhou Yi a little embarrassed.

"In the past few years, I have been scared in the wind and rain, but those symptoms have improved, and I am no longer as squeamish as I was when I was a child. ”

Yun'er smiled knowingly, then stopped talking, stretched out her hand, and handed Zhou Yi a two-foot-long thing wrapped in coarse cloth. Zhou Yi stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and saw that it was a jade flute with green light, the dragon on the flute was awe-inspiring, majestic and gentle, obviously the Nine Dragons jade flute that the world dreamed of, but the golden pill above the dragon's eyes had long since disappeared.

It is this Nine Dragons Jade Flute that almost the entire Baihe Mountain has been cut off, and the world can't ask for it, and at this time he went to play with it in his hands and asked the world for what he wanted, which was really ridiculous.

"Where's the Jin Dan above?"

"When my father got it from the Six Hanging Peaks, Jin Dan was no longer there. ”

Zhou Yi was slightly stunned, obviously, the Nine Dragons Jade Flute in his hand was already a pure disguise, and what could really constitute the bane of the rebellion like the one back then was returned to others at this moment, and it was an unknown guess where the rivers and lakes would go in the future.

"It's been a long time since I've heard you play the piano, I really miss it, you play a tune, right?"

Zhou Yi smiled slightly, didn't say much, watched a blurred starlight in the distance continue to flicker, on a whim, leisurely blew a melancholy song of nostalgia, the sound was curling, and spread throughout the entire home.

Gradually, the east turned white, and when Zhou Yi turned around, he saw that Yun'er was already lying on the haystack and sleeping, and his thoughts were all on 'Mo Li'.

==***==

After dawn, Yue Zhong still did not get better, so Zhou Yi carried him into the cellar and instructed Yun'er to take care of him below.

Sure enough, as soon as I had breakfast, I saw a fast horse running from the east of the mountain col, followed by a team of people and horses not far behind. The man at the head of the horse officially Yuan Fu, along the creek to the home pass, jumped off the horse, ran across the wooden bridge, and shouted as he ran: "Brother Zhou Tong!"

At that time, Zhou Yi was lying on the haystack waiting for him, holding a straw in his mouth, and when he looked up, he thought: "Sure enough, it's still here! It seems that the killer of the Six Hanging Peaks yesterday survived." ”

Zhou Yi then got up to greet him, and before he could speak, Yuan Fu had already entered the fence courtyard.

"Brother Yuan Fu, I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you have time to come to the cold house today?

As he spoke, he put his arm on his shoulders and walked inside.

Yuan Fu stopped and said, "Big brother, I'm not here today to beg for wine. ”

"Oh?" Zhou Yi turned his head and smiled slightly, pretending to be ignorant, "You come to me, what else can you do?"

"Big brother, I'll just say it straight, I brought my brothers to go through the motions today, the lord of Yaozhai asked us to search for people nearby, I'll tell you first, if you encounter any wandering outlaws, you must not provoke!"

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, but he was taken aback on the surface, and hurriedly asked why. Yuan Fu said: "The six hanging peaks I mentioned to you before, the owner there Wu Ye is an old friend of our village owner, recently Wu Ye sent Brother Dongguo to come here to hunt down and kill an enemy, just yesterday, the brothers almost succeeded, and let the other party run away." Now that Brother Dongguo has settled in Longyun Village, he wants our village owner to help, no, I will hurry over and inform you. ”

As he spoke, the team also arrived outside the door, Yuan Fu looked back a few times, and whispered to Zhou Yi: "This is a terrible deal, don't be kind!"

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Do you think I have this kindness to help the world?"

Yuan Fu glared at him and said seriously: "I'm serious, don't joke, if you really make trouble, I can't cover you, I heard that Wu Ye's daughter Wu Xin is also here, she is a ruthless master, you listen to me, more is better than less!"

Zhou Yi immediately stopped smiling, arched his hand, and saluted, "Brother sincerely tells you, Zhou Tong is grateful! Don't worry, I won't trouble you." ”

When Yuan Fu heard this, his face relaxed, and he said with a smile: "That's good, I'll talk about this first, I won't bother today, and I'll come to ask for your wine another day." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and left, Zhou Yi went out to see him off, and asked by the way: "Is it possible to chase and kill an enemy and move the people so much?"

"Hehe, I really can't hide it from you, we came out to find someone mainly to find a baby, and we don't have to do it to kill people. ”

"Why?"

Yuan Fu shook his head and sighed: "That person is also a hero, it's a pity! He was poisoned with arrows, and he can't live for a few days, but what Wu Ye wants is the Nine Dragons Jade Flute in his hand!"

"What!"

Zhou Yi was startled and almost fell. Yuan Fu was a little confused and asked him why he was like this, Zhou Yi pondered for a moment in a daze, and said: "It's nothing, I've heard of the Nine Dragons Jade Flute, and I know how powerful it is, so I panicked!"

Yuan Fu laughed, said goodbye to Zhou Yi, and led everyone away.
