Darkness of Rebirth

Dongfangdu held An Yun in one hand and the rein in the other. He didn't speak along the way, but smiled lightly, looking down at An Yun from time to time.It is already winter, but there are birdsong in the forest from time to time, making the mountain even more silent.An Yun closed his eyes and quietly leaned against Dongfang Du's arms, enjoying the unprecedented tranquility.

At this moment, you are not a prince, and I am not a secret guard, but two people who love each other, roaming freely between heaven and earth.After being offended by himself, both of them were silent. At this moment, An Yun couldn't help but ask: "Du, in the future, will we have the opportunity to live such a life?" Unrestrained, no identity differences, no misunderstandings and entanglements, trust the horse freely, You can go wherever you want, and most importantly, they are not separated from each other.

"Yes. No matter what kind of life you want to live, I will be with you." The smile deepened, "Yun'er, after today, you will be fourteen." At the age of 14, there are some things that can be done.

"Huh?" An Yun opened his eyes and looked at her puzzled. Why did he suddenly talk about getting older?Then she thought that when she took the initiative last night, she rejected her with the sentence "You are still young", she felt amused, and couldn't help slandering her: "After a day, isn't it too young?" The corners of her lips were hooked, "Is sister Du trying to do something to Yun'er?"

After waiting for a while, he didn't hear Dongfang Du's answer. Instead, he heard "Drive ~", and Night Breeze below him raised his hooves and galloped.Looking at the blush on Dongfang Du's face, she knew that she was using this to cover up her embarrassment, so she chuckled, "Sister Du is getting cuter, Yun'er really likes it." If it wasn't for being on the horse right now, I really wanted to throw her down up.

"Woo~" As soon as the horse started to run, it felt the biting cold wind, fearing that it would be frozen in dark clouds, so after running for a while, Dongfang Du tightened the reins and stopped the horse.He stretched out his hand and pulled the cloak behind him, wrapping the two of them, "Yun'er, don't freeze." After a pause, he bit his lips, "Yun'er, I...I also like...you like this. " Shyly responded to An Yun's words just now.

One smiles shyly and the other smiles brightly. In each other's eyes, they are so happy, but in the eyes of some people, they are extraordinarily dazzling.

Dongfangdu looked at the bamboo house in front of him, and said softly: "Yun'er, here we are." Turning off his horse, he continued to say to the dark cloud on his horse, "Rest here for now, and when it gets dark, I will take you to see that place." The sky is full of stars." He stretched out his hand and helped An Yun off his horse.An Yun is not a weak woman, but she just likes to take care of her like this.

"Okay," An Yun replied with a smile, allowing Dongfangdu to help him off the horse, and led him into the bamboo house.

There is a small platform in the center of the bamboo house, with a brazier on it, and a small pile of firewood and a bag of charcoal beside it.Dongfangdu walked to the side of the bed, tidied up the bed a little, and said to An Yun with a smile: "Yun'er, sit down first, I will make a pot of charcoal fire." The gentleness in the smile made An Yun feel so happy.

In this season, very few people would come to this bamboo house, not to mention that it was a time of war, and no one would come here.However, someone came at this time, and I don't know if it was unintentional or intentional.

No one knows who the owner of this bamboo house is, nor when it was built. Anyone who comes and goes can enter this bamboo house at will. Therefore, even if Dongfang Du and his wife enter this bamboo house first, they cannot prevent others from entering.

"You two, I'm sorry to bother you. The little girl passed by here and wants to spend the night here." A woman dressed in red and wearing a gauze hat knocked on the door, pushed the door open and walked in, cupping her fists and said to Dongfangdu .She said she was staying overnight, but seeing her knocking on the door and directly pushing the door in, she knew that the bamboo house had no owner, and this inquiry was just a show.

Dongfangdu turned his head and glanced at Anyun, and exchanged glances with each other, and they knew what each other's plans were.Dongfang Du turned back and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, this bamboo house is not owned by the two of us, and the girl is herself." After speaking, he continued to play with the charcoal fire, and when the fire was hot, he got up and walked to An Yun's side.

"Young master, I don't know what to call you?" The woman in red sat down by the charcoal fire, took out a bag of wine from behind, pulled out the cork, took a sip, and asked Dongfangdu.

Because the woman was wearing a gauze hat, her face couldn't be seen clearly. Dongfang Du glanced at An Yun and saw that she was squinting her eyes and looking up and down at the woman in red, with a hint of guard in her eyes. He was slightly stunned before turning around and answering. : "Under Lingdu, this is sister-in-law, Lingyun." He introduced himself, and at the same time introduced An Yun who was beside him.

"So it's Mr. Ling, Miss Ling." The woman in red nodded, and said her name: "Little girl, Feng Hongchen." She raised the wine bag in her hand to the east, "It's a good fortune to meet you today, Why don't you have a drink together? Look at Mr. Ling's appearance, he seems to have known him before, I don't know if he has seen him somewhere."

"Thank you, Miss Feng, for your kindness. I was born unable to drink alcohol, and so is my sister. As for the familiarity, I'm afraid it's because I look ordinary. I've never seen Miss Feng before." Dongfang Du directly refused, and An Yun, from beginning to end, Neither spoke a word.But looking at An Yun's expression, he seemed to be nervous about something.

"That's a pity." Feng Hongchen withdrew his hand, put the wine bag aside, and stopped talking.

There are outsiders here, and they are no longer interested in watching the stars and the moon.Dongfang Du tilted his head and asked An Yun with his eyes if he should leave now.Dark Cloud hesitated, then nodded.The girl in red in front of her had a faint murderous aura on her body. Although she tried her best to hide it, An Yun finally noticed it.

Judging by her generous appearance, it seems that she didn't come to kill them, but in the same room, one must always be careful. In this case, it is better to leave early and go down the mountain to return to the general's mansion.

"Miss Feng, I and my sister-in-law are going to leave first, let's just say goodbye." Dongfang Du and An Yun stood up, and together they gave Feng Hongchen a farewell salute.

The corners of her lips hidden behind the veil hooked slightly, and she replied softly: "Farewell", neither stopping nor holding back, allowing Dongfang Du and An Yun to walk past her, opened the door and left Bamboo House.

However, when An Yun got on his horse, he realized something was wrong. "Du, we...we were poisoned..." I was always cautious, but after thinking about it, there was nothing unusual.The only suspicious person was Feng Hongchen, the woman in red just now, but the two of them didn't drink the wine she handed over, so how could they be poisoned?

"I didn't expect this medicine to work so fast." The woman in red also went out, standing at the door and looking at the two of them, even though there was a veil behind them, they could hear a hint of a triumphant smile in Feng Hongchen's tone , "However, this is not poison, it's just Ruanjinsan."

"You... came to kill us?" Dongfang Du's legs were weak, his hands rested on the saddle, and he frowned at Feng Hongchen.No injustice, no enmity, why kill her?

"It's not you, it's just you." Feng Hongchen looked at Dongfang Du, and smiled, "I can also send the girl next to you to the underworld together." He said it as if he was doing good deeds.

Both Dongfangdu and Anyun were powerless to resist at this time, Dongfangdu knew that he might not escape this time, so he raised his head and looked at Anyun reluctantly, as if he wanted to keep her firmly in his mind.

An Yun seemed to know what Dongfangdu wanted to do, she burst into tears instantly, shook her head and said, "Du, no..." Before he finished speaking, Dongfangdu smiled at him and slapped his horse's butt hard. Pain, he raised his hoof and ran out, "Yun'er..." knelt down weakly, watching An Yun leave.She shouldn't have sent Zhen Wei away just to be alone with An Yun, she regretted it!

Feng Hongchen took a look at An Yun, but instead of chasing after him, he raised his sword and walked slowly in front of Dongfang Du.When An Yun turned around, he saw Feng Hongchen drew out his sword, which first scratched Dongfangdu's legs, then kicked her to the ground, and stabbed her in the lower abdomen with the sword, but Dongfangdu didn't resist at all.

"No!" An Yun shouted hoarsely, she followed after all the hard work, and she didn't want this ending.

The sword that was stabbing at the lower abdomen suddenly deflected and pierced into the soil next to it. Unfortunately, looking at it from the angle of the dark cloud and the distance, it seemed that it really pierced the lower abdomen, and the heartache was like a thousand arrows piercing the heart. An Yun vomited blood from the pain, fell off his horse, and passed out.

"Dongfang?" Feng Hongchen looked at Dongfang Du under him in surprise, his heart began to tremble, "Dongfang? You are Dongfang? How could it be you!" Feng Hongchen lifted his gauze hat, and the smile on the corner of his mouth faded long ago .

"You...you are Gu Hongyi, sister Hongyi..." Before Dongfangdu finished speaking, he passed out.
