But in the rivers and lakes

The rain fell until midnight, the sound of water dripping from the eaves of the pavilion, and the mountains and forests were silent. Shen Yun leaned on the pillar and closed his eyes to rest. At the dawn of the East, they started their journey again.

The rain-soaked mountain road was muddy and slippery to walk on. Both of them slowed down at the same time. There was an obvious trace of wheels rolling on the ground. Judging from the depth, it seemed that they were walking in a hurry.Shen Yun was not sure if this was Luo Sheng's carriage, but he knew that Luo Sheng would not just let it go.Mu Yun chose to walk behind him, squinting his eyes and staring at the man who was walking silently. They didn't talk, they just walked on the mountain road one after the other.At about three o'clock in the morning, they arrived at a small town. Looking at the bustling crowds of people, Mu Yunze smiled and said, "Brother Shen, let's rest here for a while before leaving."

Shen Yun didn't speak, but nodded slightly.Mu Yun chose to get off his horse, and pulled the rein to lead the way. Shen Yun was so preoccupied that he didn't pay attention to his movements. When Mu Yun chose to stop in front of a shop, he looked up at the sign on the door, " The four gold characters "Yuelai Inn" were shining brightly under the sun, he was taken aback for a moment, Mu Yunze had already tied the horse to the post, and went straight in.The waiter came out from the shop and greeted warmly: "You two guests, are you staying at the shop or resting?"

Shen Yun thought that Mu Yun chose to go in just to find a place to fill his stomach, but there are many places to fill his stomach, but he chose this most luxurious-looking inn, of course he would not just rest his feet.Mu Yun chose to look back at Shen Yun, and asked with a smile: "We got some rain last night, and we got a lot of muddy water on the mountain road just now, why don't we just rest in this inn for a day today, and go on the road tomorrow, Brother Shen How do you feel?"

Shen Yun had regained his composure, and said, "Mr. Mu is the master."

The shop clerk had sharp ears, and when he heard their conversation, he said with a smile on his face: "The guest officer happened to be lucky today, and there happened to be two upper rooms left in the shop, do you want to book it for the guest officer?"

Mu Yun chose to take out a piece of silver and gave it to him: "Let the kitchen boil two buckets of hot water and bring it over, and then prepare a table of wine and vegetables." The waiter's eyes were stared straight at the white money, and he hurriedly took it, nodding and saying yes Bow down and welcome them to the guest room upstairs.This inn is quite elegant and clean, the floor boards make a loud clacking sound when you step on it, and the two upper rooms are next to each other. The waiter opened the door graciously and said: "The two guests will rest inside for a while. Come right away."

Mu Yun chose to see Shen Yun standing still at the door, and said: "Brother Shen, if you don't like this room, I'll ask them to change it."

Shen Yun shook his head and smiled: "No need, this room is very good."

Mu Yun chose to say: "After the food and wine are ready, I'll have a drink with Brother Shen." After finishing speaking, he walked into the room first, and gently closed the door. Shen Yun looked at the closed door. The wooden door with flower lattice, sighed softly, and then walked in.

Since it is called the upper room, the supplies and furnishings are naturally not bad, brand new bedding, warm tea, spotless tables and chairs, and a pot of Phalaenopsis is placed on the case. This room adds a lot of life.Shen Yun sat on the chair for a long time, he didn't seem to be able to hear the bustling sounds coming in from the window, and he couldn't see anything in the room, his eyes were empty and quiet, and he didn't know where to cast them.There was a knock on the door at this moment, Shen Yun paused for a moment, got up and opened the door, the shop waiter smiled brightly like a flower outside the door: "Guest officer, the young man next door just ordered me to send it over, you See if you like it."

He was holding a set of hemp-colored clothes, soft and textured fabrics, although there were no embroidery patterns, it could be seen that they were of great value.Shen Yun didn't ask anything, just reached out to take it, and thanked him.The waiter said again: "The food and drink will be ready soon, you can come down and use it after you change your clothes."

Shen Yun nodded, and closed the door again. It was obviously a very light piece of clothing, but he held it as if it weighed a thousand catties.He looked down, and after a long time, he sighed again.He found that he seemed to be sighing a lot during this period. It had been a long time since he had experienced such a negative life. He laughed at himself, it was just a piece of clothing, wouldn't it be possible to kill him if he put it on?

It is true that a piece of clothing cannot kill a person, it is a person who can kill a person.

When Shen Yun came down from upstairs, Mu Yunze had already changed into a moon-white brocade robe and was sitting at the table waiting for him. Cloud patterns embroidered with silver silk were shining brightly on the cuffs. He had no hair tied, only A brocade belt was loosely held, a few strands of broken hair were hanging down on his shoulders, his brows were still so gentle and handsome, but Shen Yun felt that he looked like another person.Seeing him approaching, Mu Yun chose to take a cup and poured wine, and said with a smile: "This is the inn's self-brewed Zhuangyuan red. I just tasted it. Although it is not as delicious as Dukang wine, it can still be tasted. Brother Shen Might as well try it."

The cup is a delicate white porcelain cup, and it looks even more beautiful when it is filled with clear liquid. Shen Yun is not polite, he took it up and drank it in one gulp, sighing: "It is really good wine!"

Mu Yun asked with a smile: "In the eyes of Brother Shen, is there any kind of wine that is not good?"

Shen Yun took the jug and poured himself another full glass, Fang said: "There is only one kind of bad wine in the world, and that is poisonous wine."

Mu Yun chose to say: "If they knew it was a glass of poisoned wine, I'm afraid no one would be willing to drink it." When he was talking, Shen Yun had already drank two glasses in a row, and he seemed to only see the pot of wine in his eyes , while pouring it again, said: "But sometimes the poisoned wine is in front of you, but you have to drink it."

Mu Yunze raised the cup in his hand and said, "Brother Shen, you must know that most poisoned alcohol is fatal."

Shen Yun took a sip and said, "But there are many things in this world that are more terrifying than death."

Mu Yunze looked at him with clear eyes, seeming to be worried, but also seemed to be puzzled: "Brother Shen seems to have something on his mind."

Shen Yun raised his glass and said with a smile: "In front of fine wine, I never worry about it." He said it calmly, and there was no moment of hesitation in his eyes. Mu Yun chose to look at him for a while, and then his face gradually revealed a smile. He raised his glass and said: " I offer a toast to Brother Shen."

The wine is good, and the taste of the food is not bad. Shen Yun drank a lot, and the waiter in the shop has poured three pots back and forth. Mu Yunze only smiled and looked at the person in front of him, not intending to stop him.Drinking is meant to have a good time, and this pleasure includes drinking a lot, but also drinking to your heart's content. Mu Yun is in a good mood. Although he rarely drinks, he is very willing to be with him at this moment.It was already past the meal time, and there were only a few people sitting in the big hall. The waiter was busy clearing the tables, when a girl in a goose-yellow blouse rushed in, and she shouted before she could sit down: "Second brother, do you have any food or drink?"

The shop waiter looked back, with a startled expression on his face, the girl in front of her was petite, her complexion was crystal clear like jade, her delicate oval face was embedded with a pair of shining big eyes, her cheeks were crimson, and her lips were as pink as peach blossoms in early spring Nen, although she is not a stunning beauty, but she has a lively expression and picturesque eyebrows, making her look extraordinarily charming.Following her was a young man in black casual clothes, very handsome, he shook his head helplessly at the girl and said, "It's only been a long journey, and you've been yelling for hunger all the time, maybe you didn't have it in your last life?" Have you had enough?"

The girl said with a charming smile: "Anyway, we have to eat sooner or later, why pick the time! Brother, you wait here first, I'll go and bring Yunyun over!"

The young man stopped her: "Yunyun is in this situation, she shouldn't appear in front of people."

The girl glared at him: "What's the situation? What's the situation with Yunyun? She hasn't done anything shameful, why can she just stay in the carriage! I don't care, she is my sister, and I want to have dinner with her !” After that, she passed the young man and ran out of the shop like a gust of wind.The shop clerk stood there at a loss, the young man watched the pale yellow figure disappear at the door, with a doting smile on his face, he took out the silver coin and said, "Do as the girl tells you."

Mu Yunze looked at the young man, seemed to find him familiar, and asked, "Brother Shen, do you recognize this person?"

Shen Yun didn't pay attention to this matter at first, but after hearing Mu Yunze's words, he couldn't help but glance back. The young man was looking for a seat to sit down, and he didn't pay attention to the gaze from here.A look of surprise floated in Shen Yun's eyes: "Qi Chenyu..."

Shen Yun has met this person once or twice in the Jianghu. He is the eldest disciple of the Tang Sect in the middle of Sichuan. He can be regarded as a first-class master of hidden weapons in the Jianghu. , has become quite famous.Mu Yunze thought for a moment before matching the names: "So it's from the Tang Sect."

The girl who left has already brought another woman by the hand. She changed her frizz and took the woman's hand carefully and said: "Yunyun, be careful, there are steps here, don't get caught "The gentle tone seemed to be talking to a child, and the woman held by her walked with her head hanging down. Judging from her stature, she was not much different from her age, and four well-dressed attendants followed behind. He looked at the girl with obvious respect.

Qi Chenyu stood up and raised her hand to signal to them, the girl walked there, when passing by Shen Yun's table, the girl who kept her head down suddenly stopped, and slowly raised her head, revealing a haggard and pale face .Shen Yun was stunned there, he never thought that the lifeless woman in front of him was actually Tang Yunyun who amazed everyone at the Sword Passing Conference!
