Chapter 103: Death to Atone

"That's good," Zhou Yi raised the corners of his mouth, and his face was full of expression, as if the aggressive momentum of the slave just gave him a chance to fight back. Brushing his sleeves and wiping the blood on the corner of his mouth, he asked awe-inspiringly: "I came this time to investigate the evil deeds that Hou Jing did back then, since you are from his mansion, don't tell me that you don't know anything!"

The slave was shocked, only to know that his words were too radical, and he had fallen into the trap set by Zhou Yi in advance, and if he wanted to excuse himself at this moment, he was afraid that it would be too late, and he blamed himself for forgetting his words in order to attack Yu Guangling. "It seems that Zhou Gongzi is not as honest as the girl said, and he still hides these secrets in his heart!"

Zhou Yi heard her words as if she was anti-guest-oriented, and sneered: "Why do you say this? My daily trivial matters are all in your girl's dreams, why did I come from, she doesn't know!" He sighed, his physical strength had recovered as before, "Before I left Beijing, I guessed that this Taiji Mountain must be a place of nine deaths and a lifetime! But when I arrived on the mountain, I found that this place is far away from the world, with the sky as a companion, and the earth as a neighbor, a master and a servant depend on each other for their lives, and live a paradise-like life." At first, I thought I had guessed wrong, thinking that there was no answer I was looking for, but what happened today made me have to admit the coldness of this world. As long as there are people, there will be a contest between the two and the other!"

"Humph......"

The slave snorted calmly, raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Yi, "Gongzi really only found out today that there is an unknown secret hidden on this mountain!" As he spoke, he looked sideways at Mengyan on the side, and saw that her expression was blank, and her compassion moved slightly, so he said: "The girl needs to rest, Zhou Gongzi doesn't want me to say everything you want to hear in front of the girl, right?"

"Okay, I'll wait for you on the stone bridge!"

The slave didn't answer, and walked back with the help of the dream, and the figure in the night was no longer the naughty little girl who was a few days ago.

"Summoning slaves, you can't fight my ......" Zhou Yi's voice was low, as if he didn't feel at ease about anything, and said to their distant figures.

The slave was slightly stunned, and he didn't look back, and resolutely went to the front yard.

When the sky is lonely, the original lively and festive day, at this time it has fallen so desolate, thinking that in the troubled times, everyone's fate can not be firmly grasped in their own hands, in vain!

Thinking of the black-clothed man who attacked Yu Xi just now, even Nian Sheng couldn't easily defeat him, this person's martial arts are very profound, and he must be the same person who kidnapped Dong Guo Xiu in the first place. Chasing here from the capital, the people in black have been hiding in the shadows, and today they took a bold move to save Mengyan, which shows how important Mengyan is to him. Taking advantage of this moment, he took a boat among the lotus bushes, following the traces of the fight between the man in black and Niansheng, looking for some subtle clues.

Suddenly, a heart-rending scream swept across the deep night sky and echoed by the lotus pond.

Zhou Yi was taken aback, turned around, and the shouting came from Mengyan's residence in the front yard! A bad thought flashed through his mind in an instant, and he flew forward, stepping on the lotus leaf, and went straight to the front yard.

==***==

It was the dead of night, the front yard was empty, and Mengyan was not in the room. Zhou Yi was sweating profusely, and when he thought that there was still a person hiding in this mountain who didn't know friend or foe to Mengyan, all kinds of bad thoughts came up together. He immediately went to the room and fetched his sword, and was thinking about it when he heard the mournful cry of dreams from the room where the slave was called not far away. Zhou Yi pulled out his sword and went straight to her boudoir.

As soon as I entered the door, the scene in front of me was like a sharp steel knife, and my head was slashed down. I saw the slave hanging on the beam of the house, there was no movement, Mengyan sat on the ground, tears streaming down his face, obviously he had worked hard to rescue, and he was already physically and mentally exhausted by this time.

Zhou Yi came back to his senses, the long sword in his hand was held out against Bai Aya, and the figure shook, and he had already arrived under the slave, and Aya broke off and took the slave in his arms.

At that time, she still had residual warmth, but her face was pale and unconscious, if she could be rescued in time, her life would naturally not be a problem. Zhou Yi didn't have time to appease Mengyan, so he put the summoner on the ground and pressed her chest and abdomen with both hands. After a few massages, I heard her snort in a low voice, and there was already a momentum of recovery. After another cup of tea, my eyes probed slightly, and it was obvious that there was no major problem.

From beginning to end, Mengyan didn't dare to disturb him to save people, however, once the slave was out of danger, the suppressed anger in her heart burst out instantly, and she pointed at Zhou Yi with tears in her eyes and reprimanded: "The slave has been on Taiji Mountain since she was a child, and she and I didn't tell the truth, are you satisfied!"

Zhou Yi lowered his head and was silent.

"I already knew the hatred between her and the Yu family, if it wasn't for Miss Yu suddenly going up the mountain that day, I would have told you about it, but if God is like this, what can I do? Let me tell you when Yu Xi is on the mountain, does she have a grudge against her father with the slave!" Mengyan burst into tears, crying silently, "She has been diligent and loyal all these years, and she has never troubled me, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't be alive now!"

"You should know my heart, even if you tell me, it doesn't matter. Zhou Yi answered in a low voice, and he had no confidence in his heart.

"Tell you?" Mengyan sneered bitterly, her eyes red and swollen from crying, "What is the purpose of your coming here! Just like the tone you forced her to ask by the lotus pond just now, if you don't get an answer, I won't give up, can I push my good sister into the fire pit?"

Zhou Yi frowned and sighed, arching his hand, "I wanted to find out a wicked person who disturbed the world, but I didn't expect that the situation would develop to this point, which was also something I never expected." But no matter what I say, I have an unshirkable responsibility, and I should have told you about this matter many times. If everyone had talked about it, things wouldn't have gotten back to this point. ”

"How can you say it? You and Yu Xi are the perpetrators of the old case, the other is the victim, Tai Chi is full of mysteries, even my life experience itself is a huge suspicion, do you want me to buckle myself with a suspicious hat for no reason!" said, holding the slave in his arms, crying incessantly, "Poor slave, she knows what I think in my heart, and she knows what I am worried about losing, if it weren't for the sake of protecting me, how could she say that she is Hou Jing's person?" She has taken such a big charge against herself, it is nothing more than to let me dissociate myself from the man in black!"

Her words were bloody, like a sharp knife piercing her heart, making Zhou Yi speechless. Although Mengyan explained his situation and those difficulties that he couldn't help himself so sharply, Zhou Yi still had many questions in his heart that he did not confide. At this time, the slaves were forced to die, and all the truth seemed to be hidden in this cloud of truth and falsehood with this severed white silk. But one thing can be seen, Mengyan didn't lie, she burst into tears like this, she was moved by her heart and emotion, and what she said was naturally what the slave told her, as for those hidden things, how could the slave tell her?

At the moment, he put the sword into the sheath, he personally went to the kitchen to stew lily chicken soup for the two, and when it was sent to the room, the slave was still asleep, Mengyan put his hands on his cheeks, sat quietly in front of the window, and mourned infinitely.

==***==

After taking care of it, Zhou Yi withdrew and went out, thinking that it was difficult to walk in the mountains at night, and it was extremely cold, how could Yu Xi's body be cold in this early spring?

didn't go far, and happened to meet Sima Chun, who was the only one by his side at that time, and obviously failed to chase Yu Xi back. However, there were no outsiders at this time, and Sima Chun asked bluntly in front of him when he had some words, "How dedicated Miss Yu was when she healed Mengyan's wounds, you don't have the slightest doubt, why did she suddenly kill this master and servant?"

Zhou Yi's heart was in turmoil, he shook his head and sighed, "Why do you want to ask me again, if it weren't for the slander of Mr. Yu in that book, she would never be like this." ”

Sima Chun glanced at him, and also breathed a sigh of relief, afraid of his shoulder, and said: "Since you know everything, why are you so decisive? Is it just to be able to stay here and investigate the case?"

Murong Xue snorted coldly, as if she had seen through the red dust, and said coldly: "These days, Zhou Gongzi is leisurely and complacent, and he doesn't seem to have found out why, but the girl Mengyan is gentle and considerate, knows the cold and knows the hot, and the good things of others are all buried in front of her! There will be no more pitiful person in this world than Yu Xi, who is upright and kind-hearted, but is ostracized and ignored by people everywhere, and she has no regrets, and repeatedly moths to the fire, why bother!"

Zhou Yi was so red in the face by her that she could only raise her hand to apologize. Sima Chun coughed, signaling that there was no need to blame him like this, in his heart, Zhou Yi was still a person who valued love and righteousness.

"What's next for you?"

"I want to chase her back, she's weak, it's still extremely cold weather in the north, and I'm really not at ease if she leaves like this......"

Murong Xue sighed and continued: "This is what you should say and do, don't you want to think about it, why did she come here? It's not that I'm worried about your safety! Later, she told me that she and Niansheng didn't stop for a day and a night in order to hurry, and she was already sick before you hit her into the water that night!"

Zhou Yi lowered her head, her eyes were red, and she was going to chase her immediately.

Murong Xue said again: "What's the use of going now, Brother Chun and I can't persuade her to turn back, she will only be more sad if you go! Fortunately, she has Niansheng to follow, and she will be able to reach Wuxiang Mountain in two days." As he spoke, he turned to look at the bottom of the mountain, his eyes were sharp and sad, "I'm afraid that in this life, it will be difficult for her to make herself happy again." ”

Zhou Yi hugged her fists and bowed to Murong Xue, "She can have a confidant like a girl, and she can also soothe the depression in her heart a little!"

"What's the use of me just understanding her? Zhou Gongzi really doesn't know the pain in her heart?"

"I know, but some things can't come reluctantly, Yu Xi is a peerless woman, I can be admired and loved, it is a great ......" Speaking of this, I couldn't help but think of Mo Li, and sighed: "It's a pity that ......"

Murong Xue hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, do you really plan to marry this Mengyan girl?"

Sima Chun sighed, "It's impossible!" ”

Zhou Yi let out a long breath, raised his eyebrows and looked up at the night sky, and said quietly: "Ten years ago, I made a covenant with Mo Li, she will not marry me, I will not marry her!

One sentence made the two of them feel sour in their hearts, and Murong Xue sighed for Yu Xi again. After being silent for a while, Fang asked, "Who is Mo Li, why haven't you ever mentioned her?"

Zhou Yi came back to his senses and said lightly: "Ten years ago, Baihe Mountain suffered a catastrophe, and I met her unexpectedly at that time, all of this seemed to be destined, I fled to the rivers and lakes, and I have been separated from her since then!"

"Then where is her home?" ...... now," Murong Xue hesitated, "Please forgive me, are you sure that she is still waiting for your original oath?"

Zhou Yi smiled helplessly, "I hope she's still alive!" His eyes were confused, and his words choked up, "If she is still alive, this time my mother and they will pick me up in Kanto, there will definitely be her ......"

Murong Xue's half-open mouth was just about to speak, but she was choked back by a gust of oncoming mountain wind...... The man in front of her didn't seem to be as she had just imagined, at least, his adherence to the Old Testament was moving.
