But in the rivers and lakes

They lost their horses by the waterfall, and the mountain road was difficult to walk on foot. They reached the foot of the mountain at sunset. As far as they could see, there were green hills and no houses. After walking along the road for a while, they saw a deserted earth temple. The Buddha statues, doors and windows are all in dilapidated condition, the walls are mottled and covered with cobwebs, barely enough to keep out the wind and rain.Shen Yun built a fire inside, and Su Lianmo sat on the ground, clutching his stomach and wailing: "Just now we should go to the pool to get the things back, but now it's good, the horse is lost, and the luggage is fine, so we can only sit on this barren hill The wild hills starve and freeze."

Shen Yun dropped the wooden stick, stood up and walked out of the house, Su Lianmo yelled at him: "What are you doing, are you still losing your temper if I say a few words?"

Shen Yun didn't turn his head and said: "I'll go hunt some wild game and come back."

The most indispensable thing in this mountain is naturally birds and animals. When Shen Yun came back with two hares that had been disemboweled and washed clean, Su Lianmo once again felt that he had found the right helper, at least he didn't have to worry about being hungry. ah!Roasting wild game is Shen Yun's specialty. Even if he doesn't even have a grain of salt, he can still roast two rabbits until they are fragrant and oily, making Su Lianmo salivate just looking at them.

After Meimei filled his stomach, Shen Yun sat down against the wall and closed his eyes to rest. Su Lianmo fiddled with the fire and said, "Why don't you ask?"

Shen Yun didn't open his eyes: "Ask why?"

Su Lianmo said: "Don't you want to know what happened 25 years ago?"

Shen Yun was silent for a long time before saying: "That's your business, I don't need to know."

Su Lianmo looked at him and said, "But you are walking with me now, shouldn't you know the cause and effect?"

Shen Yun said: "If you want to say it, you will naturally say it. If you don't want to say it, why should I ask." He heard Su Lianmo walking towards him, and the footsteps were getting closer and closer, as if he was right in front of him. The eyebrows moved slightly, and finally opened his eyes, and saw that face that became more and more exquisite under the firelight was close in front of him. Anyone who saw this face would not be able to think of the coldness when he killed someone.

There was a smile on Su Lianmo's face, he looked very happy: "It doesn't matter if I say it or not, because you will always know in the future."

He sat down next to Shen Yun, and said with a long sigh of relief: "When we get beyond the Great Wall, we still have a lot of things to do."

Shen Yun didn't make another sound, and the breathing of the people beside him gradually became steady, as if they had fallen into a deep sleep.Shen Yun opened his eyes and saw that his head was against the wall, his long eyelashes covered his eyelids, the firelight reflected his face flickering, making his face pale, he took off his robe and covered him, Su Lian moved a moment, unconsciously approaching his arms, seeking a more comfortable place to sleep.Shen Yun froze and wanted to push him away, but when his hand touched the thin shoulder, he couldn't bear it.

25 years ago, Feiyu Villa...

It was a completely unfamiliar past, but Shen Yun could still imagine its tragedy. The boy in his arms, who had not yet reached the weak crown, had lived with this hatred for so many years.The Akasaka Sword is just a short distance away, and Shen Yun even has the treasure map at his fingertips, but he feels that no matter who owns these two things, it will be an unending disaster...

Su Lianmo slept comfortably all night. When she woke up in the morning, she saw Shen Yun undressing in the house. He opened his eyes wide and asked, "Did you conjure this up last night?"

While tidying up the saddle, Shen Yun said: "A horse dealer happened to pass by before dawn, so I bought two horses from him."

Su Lianmo patted the bay red horse, and said with satisfaction: "You have a good eye, it's a good horse."

Shen Yun threw the reins to him: "Going forward is the pastoral area, we can ask people about the distance."

Seeing that his movements were a little stiff, Su Lianmo asked strangely, "What's wrong with your hand?"

Shen Yun didn't look at him, got on his horse and said, "Let's go."

Su Lianmo rode behind him, always feeling that his right arm was weird: "You can still press your hand like this after you sleep?"

Naturally, Shen Yun would not answer him. The two rode on horseback for about two hours, and an empty meadow gradually appeared in front of them, with herds of cattle and sheep, and herdsmen waving whips could be seen everywhere.They were very curious about the two Central Plains people who suddenly appeared, and they kept casting their eyes. Shen Yun turned his chin, stopped an uncle in his fifties, and asked him the direction of Tianshan Mountain.

The uncle looked him up and down, and asked in unauthentic Chinese: "Young man, what are you doing in Tianshan?"

Su Lianmo said with a harmless smile on his face, "We came from it. I heard that there is a goddess on Tianshan Mountain. I want to see it."

The uncle smiled without malice: "The legend of the goddess has been circulating here for hundreds of years. I didn't expect you people from the Central Plains to be interested."

Su Lianmo said solemnly: "Naturally, it is said that as long as you find the goddess, you will have your wish come true. We also want to try our luck to see if the goddess can give us two bachelors a pair of young ladies who are as beautiful as flowers and jade. "

The uncle was amused by him: "Young man, if you want to find a wife, why go to Tianshan Mountain! We have a lot of beautiful girls here, as long as you are willing to stay, are you afraid that you will not find a wife?"

Su Lianmo sighed regretfully: "There is a saying in our Central Plains that fate is destined, if there is fate, we will meet each other thousands of miles away, but if there is no fate, it will be useless to stand opposite each other."

The uncle thought he was an honest person, so he actually nodded his head: "The young man is right. Since you want to go to Tianshan Mountain, you should start early. If you make it in time, you may be able to arrive before dark." The uncle pointed them in the direction, and specially presented them with a jug of goat's milk wine and half a bag of roast beef. Su Lianmo tied them to the horse and said happily, "The herdsmen outside the Great Wall are really hospitable."

Shen Yun is used to his unorganized behavior: "If you like it, you can stay here and be your son-in-law."

Su Lianmo sat unsteadily on the horse and said, "In my life, I will never marry a wife and have children."

Shen Yun was startled, but turned to look at him, and saw that the noon sun was strong, shining brightly on him, those peach-like eyes were calm and unwavering, as if the words he just said were very ordinary.They walked in the direction that the uncle pointed for nearly four hours. It was not until the sunset on the western mountain that they saw the towering mountain in the distance, surrounded by white clouds and billowing with mist.

The sky was getting dark, and it must be too late to go up the mountain now, and they didn't have any fresh water or dry food, so they first found a herdsman's camp nearby to stay overnight.The herdsmen were hospitable, not only provided them with accommodation, but also prepared rich food. The goat’s milk wine tasted sweet and delicious, and the mutton tasted delicious. Listening to the singing from outside the tent, Su Lianmo felt quite Said enviously: "In fact, such a day is quite carefree."

Shen Yun said: "If you want, you can do the same."

Su Lianmo was taken aback, and his face turned cold: "Why, Shen Daxia, who understands righteousness, wants to persuade me to put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately?"

Shen Yun took a sip of wine and said, "What kind of life you want to live is naturally up to you to decide."

Su Lianmo sneered: "I've thought about this kind of life."

Shen Yun said: "It's good that you don't regret it."

Su Lianmo stood up, and the goat's milk was poured all over the table because of his action: "If I regret it, it's because I didn't kill them all!"

Shen Yun never engaged in these useless arguments, raised his eyes and said: "I said, these matters are all up to you to decide."

Su Lianmo picked up his skirt, and unexpectedly said: "Shen Yun, don't forget what you promised me, even if the next place is a dead end, you still have to go with me."

Shen Yun smiled: "You and I are already at a dead end."

Su Lianmo laughed, let him go and walked out of the tent: "You are right, so I will not let you go."

The night outside the Great Wall is extremely cold, and there is endless darkness as far as the eye can see. Su Lianmo's white clothes are flying in the wind, covered with a layer of cold light by the moonlight. Standing in the silence, his heart seems to be suppressed A boulder, so heavy that he couldn't breathe.

A flute sound was brought over by the wind. Su Lianmo looked at the source of the sound and vaguely saw a graceful figure standing under the moon.Su Lianmo walked towards the figure, the sound of the flute gradually slowed down, and when it came to an end, he said, "The night is getting darker, why is the girl playing the flute here by herself?"

The woman didn't turn around, but said: "Isn't the young master looking at the moon here alone?"

Su Lianmo has always been very cunning in dealing with women, he said with a smile: "From this point of view, both of you and I can be regarded as fallen people."

The woman sighed faintly: "Young Master, have you heard anything from the sound of the flute?"

Su Lianmo said: "Young lady is a sad person."

The wind blew the woman's black hair, making her back more graceful and slender, her voice seemed to be filled with endless sadness: "I used to love someone very much, and I would do anything for him, but now I realize , my existence is just a pleasure for him to play, and he has never had me in his heart."

Su Lianmo said sympathetically: "Since the ancient times, there have always been infatuated women who betrayed their hearts. When a girl meets someone who is not good, she should rein in the precipice. There are so many good men in the world, and a girl will always meet someone who treats you sincerely."

The woman shook her head: "It's a pity that I can't forget him. Even if he treats me like that, I still hope to be with him for a long time."

Su Lianmo sighed: "Since he betrayed you, why should the girl be so stubborn?"

The woman said: "Perhaps this is my fate. For me, not having him is worse than dying. He promised me that as long as I can accomplish one thing for him, he will marry me as his wife."

Su Lianmo said: "If he wants to marry you, he should have married a long time ago. Why wait until now, girl, do you believe such deceitful words?"

The woman still turned her back to him, and her voice was full of yearning: "Of course I want to believe it. In order to be with him, I am willing to do anything. Young master, can you do me a favor?"

Su Lianmo is also a rare kind-hearted at this moment: "Girl, let's talk about it."

The woman stretched out her hand and waved to him: "Come over here, come over a little and I'll tell you..."

Su Lianmo moved towards her, step by step, getting closer and closer to the woman: "Girl, what do you want me to do?"

"I think……"

The woman spoke in a low voice, turned her body around abruptly, and pointed at Su Lianmo with a cold light, her resentful voice suddenly became sharp: "I want to kill you!"
