Darkness of Rebirth

After a sleepless night, Dark Cloud quietly watched the night outside Dongfangdu's house, and did not return to his room until the sky turned white.On a winter night, the night was as cold as water. Although he had internal strength to resist the cold, his whole body was still as cold as iron. He dragged his exhausted body back to his room and lay down on the bed without taking off his clothes.Unexpectedly, after lying down for a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Yun'er, are you awake?" Dongfang Du, who had slept in Chu Mi's arms all night without dreams, woke up early.First he knocked on Dongfang Lingwu's door to wake him up, and then knocked on An Yun's door.

When An Yun heard that it was Dongfang Lingwu, he braced his tired body and opened the door.Dongfangdu, who was waiting outside the door, did not hear any response from An Yun in the room. He thought that An Yun was still asleep, and was wondering whether to let An Yun continue to sleep or keep knocking on the door to wake her up, so he heard it. The door opened.

Seeing An Yun's dull eyes and exhausted face, Dongfang Du couldn't bear it, and suppressed the pain in his heart, "Are you tired from the journey yesterday? Why don't you sleep a little longer." After speaking, he turned and wanted to leave.

"Du", An Yun looked at Dongfang Du who didn't want to stay with him for a while, suddenly felt empty in his heart, couldn't help calling Dongfangdu to stop, looked at Dongfangdu's back, and asked, "Last night, Did you sleep well?"

Dongfangdu froze on the spot, didn't answer for a while, and finally turned around with a gentle smile on his face, "I slept well."

'Is that gentle smile because of your senior sister? Dongfangdu's smile hurt An Yun's heart, An Yun stared blankly, lost in thought.

"Yun'er, is there anything else you want to ask?" Looking at the dazed dark cloud, Dongfangdu suppressed the pain in his chest, "If you don't have anything to ask, you can go back to bed and sleep for a while. I'll ask the waiter Make some food and bring it to you later."

It was clearly the words of concern with a gentle smile, but An Yun couldn't feel the slightest warmth, shook his head, said "no more", turned around and walked slowly behind the screen, lay down on the bed, and didn't even close the door.

Seeing An Yun return to the bed without turning his head, the smile on Dongfang Du's face faded instantly, he sighed silently, and gently closed the door of An Yun's room.

It was still early, and there was only the waiter in the lobby wiping the table boredly, and there was no customer.Dongfangdu, who went downstairs, glanced at the lobby, and finally his eyes fell on the waiter, who was buried in wiping the table, and he didn't even notice that there were customers standing at the stairs watching him work at this time.

"Xiaoer, does the inn have breakfast?" Dongfangdu asked seeing that the waiter hadn't turned around.

"Guest officer, why do you wake up so early?" The shop waiter heard the voice behind him, turned around quickly, saw that it was Dongfang Du, and greeted him with a smile on his face, "What would you like to eat, guest officer?"

Dongfangdu thought that Anyun Suxi was light and mostly had porridge for breakfast, so he asked, "Is there any porridge?"

"Yes, yes," the shop waiter nodded, "the back kitchen has just cooked a pot of millet porridge."

Dongfangdu asked the shop waiter to serve four bowls of millet porridge and four dishes of side dishes, and brought them upstairs himself.Dongfangdu standing in front of the door of Anyun's room, stared blankly at the door of Anyun's room for a long while, looked down at the porridge on the tray, and finally turned around and walked towards Dongfang Lingwu's room.

Dongfang Du pushed the door open and entered Dongfang Lingwu's room without knocking. Seeing that she was already up and washing up, he said, "Lingwu, I put the porridge and side dishes on the table. You can wash them up after you finish washing them." have eaten."

Dongfang Lingwu, who was twisting his facekerchief with both hands, turned his head and saw the tray in Dongfangdu's hand, and asked suspiciously: "Why are you doing the work of the waiter in this shop? Are you planning to deliver breakfast to us one by one?"

Dongfang Du smiled shyly, "I'll send it to Senior Sister first, eat it quickly, the porridge won't taste good when it's cold." After speaking, he turned and went out.

Seeing that there were three bowls of porridge on Dongfangdu's tray, "Why don't you send it to Anyun first, isn't her room the closest?" Dongfang Lingwu murmured suspiciously, and then the corners of his mouth raised, "It seems that I am the most important thing. I knew that the porridge would be delivered to my room first." Hanging the wrung facekerchief on the shelf, she walked to the table and sat down, drinking the porridge with a smile on her face.

Dongfangdu turned his head to look at the dark cloud room next door, turned back to his own room, put the tray on the table lightly, turned his head and saw Chu Mi who was still sleeping on the bed, walked to the bed, bent down, Leaning close to Chu Mi, he said softly, "Senior Sister, it's time to have breakfast. I'll bring you breakfast in your room."

Chu Mi opened his eyes slightly, looking at Dongfangdu who was close at hand, as if he had returned to his old life. How long has it been since he was awakened by Dongfangdu in the morning?It has been more than a year.This year, Chu Mi wandered alone in the rivers and lakes.Ever since Dongfang Du returned to the palace, Chu Mi has never been with senior brother Fang Huiting again, and the three of them suddenly became one person. 'It seems that it has been a long time since I left Wuya Mountain, I really want to go back soon. '

Chu Mi raised his hand and touched Dongfang Du's cheek, with a real touch, "It's so good, so good." She smiled slightly, and such a day was what she wanted most.

Dongfang Du turned his face away, straightened up, and said with a smile: "Senior sister, get up quickly. I'll have porridge with you later." After speaking, he walked to the table and brought two bowls of millet porridge and side dishes to the table, " There is also a bowl of porridge, I will send it to Yun'er, and I will be back in a while."

Holding the tray in both hands, he walked step by step towards the dark cloud's room. At this time, there was only a bowl of millet porridge and a side dish left in the tray.Stopping in front of Anyun's room door, taking a deep breath, Dongfangdu raised his hand and tapped twice, pushed the door and walked in, gently placed the tray on the table without making a sound.

There was no sound coming from behind the screen, and through the screen, I couldn't see the appearance of An Yun on the bed at this time.In the past, it seemed that dark clouds suddenly appeared in his room, just squatting in front of his bed and looking at him like a child.

Dongfangdu clenched his hands and walked towards the screen step by step.After hesitating for a moment, he finally chose to bypass the screen and walked to An Yun's bed.

An Yun hugged the quilt sideways, buried her face in the quilt, did not take off her clothes, and did not turn her head to look at Dongfangdu, which meant that she was sleeping peacefully, otherwise Dongfangdu wouldn't even be unresponsive in front of her bed.Dongfang Du imitated An Yun's past appearance, squatted down, rested his hands on the edge of the bed, and looked at the person on the bed quietly.

"Yun'er" called out softly, but the person on the bed didn't respond at all, "It turns out that this is how it feels to squat down and watch the one you love sleep." This is the first time Dongfang Du has squatted on the bedside like An Yun. Before, "It turns out that the reason why I grabbed the edge of the bed with both hands is because I wanted to get closer but couldn't."

How many times, An Yun grabbed the edge of the bed with both hands and looked at Dongfang Du's sleeping face, how many times he just watched quietly and then left quietly.There are countless times, Dongfangdu himself does not know, how many times An Yun would secretly look at him who has fallen asleep.

After quietly looking at An Yun's back for a long time, he sighed softly and said slowly and helplessly, "Yun'er, I'm so contradictory. What do you think I should do with you?" An Yun fell asleep peacefully, Dongfang Du's brows were slightly frowned, his eyes were full of entanglement, reluctance or pain, as if he was asking An Yun and himself.

It was quiet again, and after a while, Dongfangdu sighed silently, got up slowly, looked longingly at the dark cloud on the bed, turned around, and left without looking back, but he didn't know that at the moment she turned around, For a moment, An Yun turned his head, his eyes filled with tears.

"I know you are brooding about the past life, but I really never thought of killing you, why don't you believe me? I would rather die than take your life." Tears could not stop falling , "You are the prince, and I am the secret guard. I want to be with you, but I feel that I am not good enough for you. I want to quietly guard you all my life, but I never thought that in the end, you will die in my hands. Do you know how painful my heart is? Do you know that the contradictions and entanglements in my heart were more serious than yours. "

"Did you never believe that I love you?" You closed your eyes, "Yeah, for seven years, I only said that I like Brother Du, but I never told you that I love you, how would you know that I am If you love you, how would you know that I went to kill you just to protect you and give you a chance to escape..."

An Yun wanted to tell Dongfang Du these words, but she was afraid that she would ignore her if she knew that she had followed her and that she was not the 13-year-old child.If he explained, Dongfangdu would turn around and leave after only one sentence, never to see him again in this life.

Several people finished their breakfast, paid their bills, left the inn, and rushed to Wuya Mountain.Two days later, I finally arrived at the foot of Wuya Mountain at the junction of Yongzhou and Yuzhou.

Wuya Mountain is just an ordinary mountain, and there is only one way up the mountain, and Wuyazi has set up nine interlocking gossip mazes at the only intersection. Only the four masters and apprentices know about it. array method.

"Lingwu, get off the horse, you can only walk up the mountain." Dongfangdu, who turned over and jumped off his horse, raised his head and said to Dongfang Lingwu. After speaking, he turned his head to look at Chu Mi and An Yun who had already dismounted, and turned back to help Dongfang Lingwu dismounted.
