Darkness of Rebirth

On the day of Lantern Festival, the entire capital city was very lively in the morning, and there were countless young men and women coming and going on the road, much more than in the past.Lantern Festival night is the first full moon night of the year. It is a good day for seeking a mate, and it is also a good day for lovers to date.Dongfangdu accompanied Anyun to eat glutinous rice balls, which symbolized reunion, and went to the street to enjoy the lanterns together.

Changyue Hotel is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Jingzhou City. As soon as you go out, you can see all kinds of lanterns, and every few feet away, there will be performances such as dragon and lion dances. The applause made the whole street look even more lively.

After walking for a short distance, Anyun noticed something strange. Banlan, who used to follow every step of the way, did not follow them at this moment, which made her heart ache, "Du, why didn't Banlan follow us?" Come out together?" Thinking about it carefully, it seems that I haven't seen Ban Lan all day today.

The crowd was surging, to prevent An Yun from being lost, Dongfangdu added some strength to her hand, and then replied: "Ban Lan is with Gu Hongyi." He comforted An Yun He smiled aggressively, trying to reassure her.

"Really?" An Yun asked softly, feeling that it was not that simple.If Ban Lan was only with Gu Hongyi, there was no need to separate from them.I haven't seen Banlan all day today, could it be that I made arrangements for last night's affairs?Bursts of heart palpitations made An Yun become trance-like, and the figures overlapped, making it hard to see clearly.

Dongfangdu led Anyun for a few steps, and heard passers-by say that Qingshuihe was setting off river lanterns. He turned his head and was about to talk to Anyun, but saw that she was not quite right, and her eyes were looking straight ahead without focus. A preoccupied look.

"Yun'er, what's the matter?" Turning around to face An Yun, she pressed her right hand lightly on her left arm, "Are you feeling unwell? If you're feeling unwell, I'll take you back."

An Yun was about to shake his head and say it's okay, when he suddenly remembered what happened last night, he nodded and said, "Go back." Staying in the inn is safer than staying outside, in a place where fish and dragons are mixed, if something happens, you can't use your sword Fist.

After coming out for a while, Dongfangdu returned to the Changyue Inn with dark clouds, and as soon as he entered the lobby, the innkeeper smiled and greeted him: "Mr. Ling, Mrs. Ling, why are you back so soon? I heard that Xi There was a lantern riddle guessing conference held on the street, didn't you go there to play?"

After finishing speaking, I realized that the faces of both of them were not very good, one was worried, and the other looked solemn, what's wrong?

The innkeeper was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively: "But Mrs. Young Master is not feeling well? Why don't you ask someone to invite the doctor to come and see Mrs. Young Master?"

Dongfangdu looked at Anyun with pity, then turned to the innkeeper and said, "No need, just bring a pot of water to my room." After a pause, he added, "Don't put tea, boil it Washed warm water is enough." After speaking, he led An Yun upstairs.

After entering the room, Cai Xu helped An Yun to sit down at the table, and the innkeeper personally delivered a pot of water.

"My lord, the white water you want doesn't add any tea leaves, and the temperature is just right." Smiling, he handed the high-six-petal Ru porcelain pot in his hand to Dongfang Du, "If you have any other orders, lord, just call the younger one. "

Dongfangdu held the porcelain teapot in one hand and closed the door with the other before turning back to the table.Passed the two upside-down teacups with water, poured half a cup of warm water, handed it to An Yun, and said softly, "Yun'er, have a glass of water." Gently put the porcelain teapot on the table, in the dark cloud He sat down next to him and gazed at her tenderly.

An Yun took the teacup, took a sip, and placed it on the table.

"Du, I always feel flustered in my heart, my heart beats very chaotically, and I always feel that something bad is going to happen." Turning my head to look at Dongfangdu, my eyes were a little dim, and I stared at Dongfangdu for a few times in a daze , continued: "The matter of poisoning has not been investigated yet, Anfeng's death has remained silent, and someone hired Qingqiu Building to rob you tonight..."

One wave of ups and downs, one wave after another, I'm afraid things won't be so easy to solve.

Dongfang Du smiled, and reached out to hold An Yun's hand, "I'm here for everything, you don't have to worry, besides, you are the Pavilion Master of Huangquan Pavilion, it's not the style of Pavilion Master Yun to be so timid." She was not there For the past four years, An Yun has been the cold-faced pavilion master of Huangquan Pavilion. He is ruthless towards people and merciless in killing people. How come he becomes a little woman when he is by her side?

"Yun'er, there are my people inside and outside the inn." Not only her people are there, presumably An Yun's disciples of Huangquan Pavilion are also secretly protecting them.An Yun's Huangquan Pavilion disciple would kill anyone in the world except her and himself.

But even knowing that there were so many people inside and outside the inn, An Yun's heart was still beating wildly.An Yun grabbed Dongfang Du's hand with his backhand and pressed it on his chest, "My heart is still in turmoil. Something unexpected will happen tonight." There will be no palpitations for no reason!

Sitting in the room like this, there is always an illusion of waiting to die. Dongfang Du thought about it and said, "Yun'er, if you are really worried, we will go back to the palace right away." Going back to the palace will make Anyun stop worrying so much, right? ?

As soon as he mentioned going back to the palace, An Yun's heart beat faster and faster, "Don't, don't go back to the palace." In the past few days, the palace is more dangerous than outside the palace. In the event of an accident, staying in this inn is the safest.

There was a lot of voices outside the inn, but it was very quiet inside the inn, especially the second floor of the inn, which was even more terrifyingly quiet, as if there was no one else except the two of them.

Just when Dongfangdu wanted to ask why he didn't want to go back to the palace, there was a sudden rush of footsteps going upstairs, and then the door of Dongfangdu's room was knocked, "My lord, please open the door!" It was Banlan's voice, The voice was anxious, and it seemed that something major had happened.

Why did Banlan come back suddenly?While An Yun was wondering, Dongfang Du had already stood up and opened the door.

"Come in and talk." Dongfangdu let Banlan enter the room sideways, then locked the door, turned to face Banlan, and asked, "Banlan, what happened?"

As soon as Ban Lan entered the room, she didn't care about the dark clouds, and said directly: "My lord, I have dispatched a hundred Muzhen guards and fifty Jin Zhen guards, and they have arranged around the inn."

If this is the case, there is no need to panic and worry.

Sure enough, Banlan took a breath and continued, "Jin Zhenwei is good at tracking and anti-tracking. The leader of Jin Zhenwei said that there is no suspicious person around the inn..."

Dongfangdu frowned, and immediately thought of something, without waiting for Banlan to say the next thing, he said directly: "Send an order to Zhenwei, let them stand by around the palace!" Then he turned to Anyun and said, "Yun'er, let's go back to the palace immediately !immediately!"
