falling dust

As Ching Ming was approaching, it had been raining for the past few days, and today it was accompanied by thunder and lightning, and there was nothing to be seen ten steps away.

Yun Shi took the oil-paper umbrella that Shang Yuji handed over and walked out of Luoyu Pavilion, when she suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the rain, the rain was too loud and she couldn't distinguish it, so she didn't try to figure out what it was Yes, and walked into the rain.

At this time, a woman walked towards me in the heavy rain. The woman did not hold an umbrella, and she was thin. The rain slid into her clothes along her pale neck, and her whole body was already soaked, but she didn't seem to notice it. The giant sword fit the body, and the weird sound was the sound of the giant sword being dragged on the ground in her hand.

Yun Shi watched her walk forward past him, her delicate but pale face was expressionless, like a lonely soul aimless.

When the woman was about to pass her, Yun Shi pushed the oil-paper umbrella in his hand forward and put it on top of the woman's head.

The woman didn't notice it, she was still walking forward, Yun Shi didn't know where she was going, but seeing her dripping wet with those lifeless eyes made it unbearable to just stand by and watch.

When she reached the Luoyu Pavilion, she grabbed the woman, and the woman turned around to look at her at this moment, with a trace of doubt in her dull eyes, but Yun Shi saw a trace of guard in her eyes.

She couldn't help but lower her voice and said softly: "Come on, your clothes are already soaked, it rained so much in March, it's very cold, I'll take you to change."

The woman stood still, just looking at her without blinking, as if she had some purpose in distinguishing the clouds.

Yun Shi also looked back at her, his eyes were clear and clear, without any distracting thoughts.

After a while, the woman nodded very lightly, Yun Shi smiled with his eyes bent, and dragged her into Luoyu Pavilion.

Seeing her gone, Shang Yuji returned to his own doubts, and saw the woman behind her with a sudden tone: "Go, go to your Purple Bamboo Garden."

There were only a few bamboo houses in the Purple Bamboo Garden, Yun Shi led the woman into one of the rooms, took out a set of water-colored clothes from the closet and put them on the bed, and said with an apologetic smile to the woman: "The humble house is simple, and shelter from the rain is okay. You change your clothes first, and then decide to stay."

After that, she went out of the bamboo house, took the oil-paper umbrella placed at the door, and walked into the bamboo forest. The rain continued, hitting the bamboo leaves, and the noise was just like her current thoughts.

Shang Yuji saw her from a long distance, his face turned cold suddenly, and he stepped forward to put his umbrella on top of her head.

Seeing that there was a trace of unresolved melancholy in her raised eyebrows, her heart softened, and her face eased a little. He handed her the warm soup in one hand and blamed her: "Don't be in a daze, give me the soup first." That girl drank it, I'll bring you another bowl."

Yun Shi knew that she blamed him for not taking care of his body, so he took the bowl from her hand and said with a smile: "Sister, don't blame me, I was distracted just now."

Shang Yuji just felt sorry for her for not caring about her body, so how could she really blame her? When she pulled over the cloud, she wiped a stream of rainwater from her forehead to between her brows, and when she looked up, she saw the woman in the water-colored dress at the door. The shape is as tough as black bamboo, which complements the purple bamboo forest.

She smiled at the woman, and pushed Yun Shi, "Go, don't make anyone sick."

Yun Shi approached the woman, handed over the steaming soup in his hand, and said softly, "Warm up while it's hot."

The woman stretched out her hand to take it, and without hesitation, she drank it in one gulp. Yun Shi saw that when she raised her hand, the cuff slipped off, revealing a dazed red streak winding upwards on her white forearm.

Before she could see clearly, the woman had finished drinking and looked at her in surprise.

Yun Shi smiled awkwardly, took the empty bowl from the woman's hand and said, "The rain is not going to stop, girl, let's avoid it here first, and make plans when the rain subsides."

The woman glanced at Yu Zhong, and walked towards the house without making a sound, as a tacit consent.

"If you need it, you can find me in the front yard." Seeing that she was not good at speaking, Yun Shi stopped disturbing her, turned around and walked out of the yard.

The rain has stopped at night, and the black sky is shining with dots of stars. Occasionally, a star breaks through the night and goes to the sky. The cold moonlight shines on the earth to illuminate the quiet night. The bamboo in the bamboo forest is blown by the breeze from time to time. There was a rustling sound.

Suddenly a black shadow shuttled nimbly among the bamboo groves, and in the blink of an eye he had arrived at the front of the house. He put his ear on the window and listened for a while, to make sure that the people inside were breathing evenly and fast asleep.

Only then quietly opened the window, looked into the room by the moonlight, saw that the person on the bed was unaware, and then jumped into the room with very light movements without making a sound.

Hei Ying pulled out the dagger tied to his calf to be on guard, and moved gently towards the bed.

As soon as he reached the bedside, Hei Ying suddenly felt something strange behind him, and suddenly turned his head to the side of the dagger, only to hear the sound of "dang" metal collision.

Heiying only felt that the person on the opposite side was holding a very heavy weapon, which made his wrist numb from the shock. He threw away the dagger and drew out the long sword on his back without hesitation. Darkness.

But only that blow made no sound to the opponent, and Heiying frowned slightly. Now he was aware that the opponent was in the dark, and he didn't know when the opponent would attack again. Thinking of this, he stabbed forward with his sword in the air, taking advantage of the situation From moonlight into darkness.

Hei Ying was not discouraged by the sword's stabbing, and now he was not afraid of the opponent in the dark. Suddenly, the sound of piercing the air came from the side, and he swung his sword to block it. He couldn't help being surprised that the opponent could find his position in the dark.

Shocked, Soi Ying took out a few hidden weapons from his waist and threw them at the door, breaking open the closed door, and the moonlight poured in, illuminating a thin figure under the moonlight.

Jiang Lian stood against the light with her sword in her hand, her exquisite lips were tightly pursed, and she was looking at this unexpected visitor with raised eyebrows.

Seeing the black shadow sizing him up, Jiang Lian frowned, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, he raised his giant sword and slashed.

Although the gigantic sword is mighty, Jiang Lian's unyielding brute force was not the sword moves she fought with the black shadow for so long.

Although she knew that the shadow's changing move was intended to cause her to consume her physical strength rapidly, Jiang Lian had no way to deal with it for a while. Although she was carrying a sword, she didn't know the sword move.

As time passed, Jiang Lian was exhausted, and the black shadow spotted her in the neutral position, and the long sword attacked her with a killer move.

Just when Jiang Lian was unable to escape, a beam of silver light came from a distance, flashing across the eyes and forcing the sword back.

She clearly saw the word Xuezang on the beam of silver light through the moonlight.

There seemed to be a voice from a long time in her head, "If Xuezang hadn't been unsealed, I would never use it again in this life," the voice was absolutely mournful, her heart suddenly ached, and the mist in her eyes immediately lingered.

Seeing that Jiang Lian's expression was different, Yun Shi pulled out the trembling Xuezang sword from the hilt, and wanted to make a quick decision. The silver light in the room shone, and after a while there was only a muffled groan, Xuezang came out through the body and stabbed the vital point.

During the fight just now, the black shadow saw her looking sideways and knew that she was worried about the woman. At this moment, he quickly shot a few hidden weapons and went straight to Jiang Lian. , took the opportunity to turn around and jump over the window to run deep into the bamboo forest.

Yun Shi didn't go after him, but went to check on Jiang Lian, seeing her expression was dull, her eyes sparkling, Yun Shi didn't know why this woman was acting like this suddenly, so he only called out softly: "Miss?"

After a few words, Jiang Lian turned his eyes to her, with deep sadness in his eyes, Yun Shi was taken aback, and then looked at her softly.

After a few breaths, Jiang Lian restrained his emotions and thanked her, Yun Shi only felt that the voice was not what she should have at her age, the voice was cold and remote and had experienced the vicissitudes of the world, as if it had come through centuries.

"What's the girl's name?" Yun Shi asked when he saw her looking at Xuezang in his hand.

Jiang Lian frowned and thought for a while, her lips moved slightly, and Yun Shi heard her say two words "Jiang Lian" in a very soft voice.

"You can call me Yun Shi, Miss Jiang, where did you get hurt just now?" Seeing that she said her name, Yun Shi returned to his cold appearance, only a little less indifferent than yesterday.

"I'm fine." Jiang Lian turned his eyes to the bamboo forest outside the window. The night was as dark as ink, the wind had already stopped, and the bamboo forest was quiet.

"He's coming for you!" Jiang Lian said with certainty although his tone was calm.

Yun Shi smiled helplessly: "It was my negligence. Someone just broke in not long ago. I just thought it was Xiaoxiao who came from somewhere, but unexpectedly they were in the same group." She apologized: "Miss Jiang was shocked."
