Silver Moon Halberd

Chapter 62 Extra Story 5 "Previous Dust"

Yao Hezhi still remembers the first time he saw Qingyan.

The 16-year-old boy seemed out of place among the tall and mighty warriors.Yao Hezhi frowned imperceptibly, and then his eyes passed over the other party, locking on the strongest man in the queue. What he wanted to choose was a personal bodyguard, not a pleasing vase.

Seniority is orderly, Yao Hezhi decided on his favorite candidate before it was Yao Xingzhu's turn, and the younger brother who worshiped the strong took away the weakest boy.

This surprised Yao Hezhi very much.

Because of looks?He shook his head secretly.How could the arrogant and arrogant younger brother be deceived by his appearance?Or was that young man really superior, because he underestimated him?Just when he couldn't figure it out, a room robbery and murder broke the tranquility of Taihe City, and his father ordered his brother to lead the troops to chase after him.

More than a month later, one day late at night, in a small town hundreds of miles away from the city, Yao Hezhi finally found the trace of the murderer, and was waiting to catch the murderer, but unexpectedly, the door of the room opened from the inside, and a figure walked out slowly.

The stunning young man has flying black hair, his blue shirt is soaked in blood, a scimitar is shining red in one hand, and a black head is in the other.Like ghosts and gods under the moon.

Looking at the boy for a moment, Yao Hezhi couldn't help holding his breath.

In this game of hunting down the murderer, he was taken over by Yao Xingzhu.When the father rewarded his younger brother, he thought his face must be extremely ugly, not because he was jealous that his younger brother had won a precious mink fur bed sheet, but because he was annoyed that he judged people by their appearance... The boy standing behind his younger brother should have been belongs to him!

Yao Hezhi spent three months looking for skilled craftsmen to forge a golden knife. The scabbard is inlaid with seventeen lapis lazuli.

The day he sent the golden knife coincided with Qingyan's 17th birthday.

Rumors spread in the city all of a sudden, that the Youdao prince disregarded the suspicion of melon fields and plums, and spent a lot of money for the Pomeranian's smile;

Yao Xingzhu was naturally furious, and all his anger was directed at Qingyan.One time, he was finally punished for a trivial matter and wanted to drive him out of Taihe City.After hearing about this incident, Yao Hezhi, as an older brother, couldn't help dissuading him a lot. Firstly, it would be out of style to get angry for a guard.Second: Qingyan has done a lot of meritorious deeds, and he can just send him to another place to take up a post after paying off his merits.

Speaking of this, why doesn't Yao Xingzhu understand what his brother means?So he "gifted" Qingyan to him as a favor.

Yao Hezhi secretly laughed at Yao Xingzhu's youthful vigor, without provocation, it would be a shame to let Qingyan follow such a narrow-minded person.And he will not let Qingyan just be a small follower around him, he wants to train Qingyan, cultivate Qingyan, and in time, when he is firmly seated as the city lord, Qingyan will be his most powerful right arm.

Since Qing Yan followed him, they slept in separate beds and ate at the same table; they handled the internal affairs of the city, observed the people's sentiments, and resolved the disputes among the people. They were inseparable.

In addition to his outstanding skills, Yao Hezhi admired Qingyan's intelligence, calmness, courage and fearlessness.Qingyan is a rare talent, and the only feasible way to gain a person's loyalty is to treat each other with sincerity.He respects and trusts Qing Yan, he can almost entrust his life to Qing Yan.

Time flies.Half a year later, on the occasion of Yao Hezhi's 21st birthday, Yao Xingzhu gave him a jar of wine called "Huai Qun", saying that this wine can melt thousands of years of ice into spring water, and turn hundreds of years of steel into soft fingers.Some people think that he snatched Qingyan from Yao Xingzhu because he was greedy for beauty, maybe Yao Xingzhu also thought the same, but he didn't care about other people's unreasonable speculation, Qingyan knew what he would do to Qingyan.

After the birthday guests dispersed, Yao Hezhi set up a banquet in the courtyard and invited Qingyan to celebrate together.There were two jars of wine on the table, one of which was Huai Qun, and he wanted to pour it out with his own hands in front of Qing Yan.Qingyan was thoughtful and good at observing words and expressions, Yao Hezhi could understand it with a single expression or movement, but this time, he obviously misunderstood the other party.

The moment Yao Hezhi reached out to the wine jar, Qingyan raised it up first.

Dazed for a moment, Yao Hezhi snatched it away, his face clouded!

Qing Yan didn't know why, but instinctively knelt down in front of him.

Looking down at the young man, Yao Hezhi pursed his lips and swallowed the words in his mouth.He knew that Qing Yan had been wandering around since he was a child, and he was in danger, and he went to Taihe City just for a stable life.He knew that he shouldn't be angry with such a cautious person, but the young man's unconditional obedience made him feel even more disappointed.

Sighing, Yao Hezhi put down the wine jar and turned to leave.After a long time, he realized that Qing Yan had secretly hidden the wine under the bed.

Qing Yan owed him a glass of birthday wine, and refilled it on his 22nd birthday.At that time, the hibiscus flowers were blooming, and the color of the flowers was bright red. The young man was sitting on the bushes with drunken eyes, and when the wind blew up occasionally, the petals would fall one after another, falling on his hair like a waterfall of ink.This situation made Yao Hezhi suddenly recall the moonlit night when he was arresting fugitives outside the city two years ago, the moonlight was like silk, and the young man was like a drop of blood on the silk, it was shockingly beautiful.

Year after year, hibiscus flowers bloom again.

Qingyan stopped in the courtyard, with a golden knife hanging from his waist, and the moment the knife was drawn out, a golden light suddenly appeared.His sword is unrestrained and neat, his figure is as light as a swallow, and he looks like a martial artist like a dancer.He attacked Yao Hezhi with a flash of saber light, but when Yao Hezhi was just a few feet away, he turned around and closed his blade, and faced the opponent again, a bright hibiscus flower appeared in his outstretched left hand.

This is Qing Yan's 23rd birthday gift to him.

Many years later, Yao Hezhi will still miss this past and regret not being able to spend his 24th birthday with the other party.

Just because his father died of illness that year, the sibling rivalry was on the verge of breaking out!

A will from Qianning has become the target of contention.

Why did the father entrust the will to the Ye family?It's not that Yao Hezhi has no doubts, but it's normal for brothers to fight each other.

He secretly bought a group of killers, just to be the first to stop the will.If the heir is himself, he will "return the property to the original owner" and secretly escort Young Master Ye to Taihe City safely. If it is not himself, he will destroy the will and let the "truth" disappear!But he never expected that the person he sent would be intercepted and killed by Yao Xingzhu on the way; and two months later, the news of Chanyilou's success also reached his ears.

He knew very well that if he lost in this final competition, he would not only lose the position of city lord.Ambition, dignity, years of hard work will be in vain.

How can he be willing?

He has to give it a go!

After everything was arranged, Yao Hezhi took Qing Yan to a remote courtyard, and pointed him to a secret road leading to the outside of the city.

Yao Hezhi had an uncle named Yao Qiutong who treated him very well during his lifetime, but when he was three years old his uncle went crazy, and died of a serious illness half a year later.This secret way was told to him by his uncle, saying that no one but himself knew it.

After hearing this, Qing Yan lowered her eyes and clenched the golden knife in her hand.The golden scabbard is inlaid with nineteen lapis lazulis of the same age as him.

Yao Hezhi smiled faintly, and patted the boy on the shoulder.

The outcome of this life-and-death situation is unpredictable. If something unexpected happened to him, how could Xingzhu Yao let the people closest to him go?

Yao Hezhi has played many roles in his life, a respectful and humble son, a mature and prudent elder brother, a shrewd and capable eldest son, but only in front of Qingyan, he is Yao Hezhi, an ordinary person who cares about gains and losses.He has always been unsmiling, maybe not gentle enough, he gave all the tenderness he had to the young man.

In fact, he is bound to win.He almost won.

If it weren't for the "Yellow Spring" thrown into Yao Xing's main wine glass, it would be replaced by his glass.

Only then did Yao Hezhi realize how thoroughly he had lost!

Qing Yan has been wandering around since he was a child, and he is precarious, but he went to Taihe City not for a stable life, but to repay the master he had devoted his life to.

At the age of 12, Qing Yan accidentally killed a son from a rich family who was trying to bully him, fled into Taihe City in a hurry, and ran into Yao Xingzhu who was out of the city for fun.Yao Xingzhu gave him a bowl of porridge when he was at his worst, and gave him a roof to shelter him from the wind and rain.

Four years later, he entered the inner city as a bodyguard, and under Yao Xingzhu's arrangement, he came to Yao Hezhi's side.

From the very beginning, from the first moment Yao Hezhi saw Qing Yan, he fell into the carefully woven net.

In the dark dungeon, "Yellow Spring" eroded Yao Hezhi's body bit by bit. He could smell the rotten breath emanating from his body, and he could clearly feel the pain of festering flesh.Huang Quan was originally used by him to deal with his own younger brother, so there is no complaint about the ending now.

He numbly waited for his body to rot away, but Yao Xingzhu thought he was not worthy of liberation.

There is no solution to the "Yellow Spring", once it is in the body, it will definitely kill a life. Although "Yellow Spring" is unsolvable, it can be crossed with others.When Qing Yan entered his body for the first time, he almost wanted to bite his tongue and commit suicide. He would rather give up his life than linger on in humiliation.However, Yao Xingzhu's words made him fall into despair: If he dies, ask Qing Yan to taste the taste of Lingchi instead of him.

During that time, Yao Hezhi hated everyone!He hated his father who made his brothers fight each other, hated his younger brother who never ceased to die, hated himself who hadn't seen the people around him clearly for three whole years, and even more hated Qing Yan!Why did Hate Qingyan be at the mercy of Yao Xingzhu, why didn't he escape from the secret path!

Is it for his own good to get rid of the poison on his body?But his life is better than death, only Yao Xingzhu wants him to live, to live and suffer!

That's all, that's all...

He admits that he has lost everything.

Just when he had accepted that he would live like a walking corpse for the rest of his life, Qing Yan came to the dungeon alone, picked him up and left without saying a word.Maybe it was to change to a more secret place, maybe Yao Xingzhu came up with a new trick, Yao Hezhi didn't care to ask, but Qing Yan led him all the way to the remote courtyard, and secretly said out of the city.

A carriage was waiting outside the city, and beside it stood a stranger.

It wasn't until he got into the car that Qing Yan explained the whole story to him.It turned out that apart from the ten large ships promised in the will, Young Master Ye had other purposes for his trip; he secretly contacted Qing Yan to set up this game, just to hold enough bargaining chips to force Yao Xingzhu to hand over the shipbuilding blueprints.

With a gloating smile, Yao Hezhi looked at the young man wearily: "Why save me?"

Qing Yan looked back at him, and suddenly leaned close to his lips and pecked lightly.

Regardless of guilt or pity, what Qing Yan gave him was a kiss... Yao Hezhi slapped Qing Yan on the cheek with all his strength.Qingyan was beaten to the point where his head was turned away, and the blood on his face faded away. Amid Yao Hezhi's stern laughter, he opened and closed his mouth but couldn't utter a single word.

They rushed all the way to Miaojiang, crossed mountains and ridges, and traveled across mountains and rivers.During this time, Huang Quan was completely transported into the body by Qing Yan.

At first, Yao Hezhi could calmly order the young man to go away, but when he realized it was useless, he cursed loudly, his voice became hoarse, and he began to struggle in vain.Qing Yan suppressed him and moaned impatiently.It was not the first time they had intimate contact, but it was the first time Yao Hezhi ejaculated because of a low moan.Qing Yan was startled, and immediately quickened his movements, kissing him passionately.Yao Hezhi's heart almost jumped out of his chest, his whole body was hot, and his mind was in a mess.That's how he felt when he thought about death in a hazy way.

When it was about to reach Miaojiang, Qingyan's viscera were shattered and his internal strength was lost.

Yao Hezhi thought that his heart had become as cold as a stone earlier than in that dark dungeon, but he didn't want to be deceiving himself.

He has lived for 23 years. In order to gain his father's approval, to prove his ability, he has worked hard for power, fame and fortune, and even killed brothers, but what has he gained in the end?

Only endless remorse, endless pain!

Holding the unconscious person in his arms, his left eye was open, and his heart died along with the increasingly weak body in his arms.

When they arrived at their destination, they were greeted by a poisoner named Sosa.

Sosa burst into tears and knelt down in front of Yao Hezhi.

It turned out that before they arrived, a letter written by Young Master Ye was rushed into Miaojiang. Sosa knew that he had made a big mistake after reading the letter.Back then, he was arrogant and rescued Yao Xuefeng only to prove his skill in poison medicine, including using "Tianhusi" to verify blood relationship.Unexpectedly, the spirit of the day planted the bitter fruit of today!

From the other party's mouth, Yao Hezhi learned more truths, although they were no longer important.

He was originally a tall and handsome man, even though his appearance was destroyed, his speech still retained the confident demeanor of the past.He quickly learned the Miao language, and taught the local people how to speak and write Chinese.When he went to Lutian, he attacked water and soil, helped build dams and canals, and led the people to plant new crops.

The simple folk customs and friendly neighbors made his heart seem more and more peaceful.

With the bamboo basket on his shoulders, Yao Hezhi stepped on the mud barefoot and walked towards the bamboo house in front of him.It rained last night and the ground was extremely slippery. He walked cautiously and slowly.

His right eye was destroyed, his eyesight was not as good as before, but his body recovered, he could carry it with his hands and shoulders, and his strength was still there.

Walking outside the house, he unloaded the basket, which contained the bamboo shoots dug up today and a few duck eggs given by Miss Si Luo.Enough for a day's meals.After tidying up his things, he went to the water tank, scooped up a ladle of water and poured it down, and then threw the water ladle back into the tank, the rippled light reflected a distorted and ugly face with gray hair.

For a long time, he felt that the days seemed like years, but after getting through, the time became faster.Unknowingly, his temples have been stained with years of wind and frost.Siluo in cardamom age would call him Uncle Hezhi sweetly and softly, and he smiled kindly and called Siluo little girl.Because of laughing a lot, there are deep and shallow lines in the corners of the eyes.

Looking at himself in the water, Yao Hezhi shook his head mockingly.

Turning around and entering the room, he took out the bamboo chair, then returned to the room and took out the Qingyan inkstone and placed it on the chair.He planted a few hibiscus trees outside the courtyard, and the flowers were in full bloom. He picked one and pinned it gently in Qing Yan's hair.

Qing Yan closed her eyes tightly, sleeping so peacefully.

Caressing Qingyan's cheek lightly, Yao Hezhi's expression was so calm that it was almost indifferent.The fingertips went from the eyebrows to the eyes, from the nose to the lips, and then landed on the flowers on the sideburns.After staying for a while, his hand moved to Qingyan's arms. Lying in the other's arms was a scimitar. From 17 to 19 years old, the lapis lazuli on the scabbard also changed from seventeen to nineteen.He originally planned to have a lapis lazuli inlaid on the scabbard every year on the other party's birthday, but he is no longer the prince of Taihe City, so he has no ability to realize it.

"Today is my 34th birthday," holding Qing Yan's hand. In his eyes, Qing Yan still looks like a teenager. "Next year today, I hope you can spend it with me. As for your birthday, I will wait for you." Wake up, I'll stay with you again."

Gradually lowering his tone, and pressing his forehead against the back of Qingyan's hand, Yao Hezhi murmured: "I'll spend with you, your 20th birthday..."

Ten years ago, in order to atone for his sin, Sosa injected the poison of Qingyan into his body in exchange for blood, and died of the poison in less than half a month.Before his death, Sosa once said that if Qing Yan did not wake up for ten years, it would be impossible to wake up again.

Time flies so fast...

The ten-year period has come.

Yao Hezhi has too many things to say in his heart, but if Qingyan doesn't wake up, he has nowhere to confide in.His heart was never at peace.

"Ha!" With a deep smile, he changed his tone and said sternly, "If you don't wake up today, I will bury you tomorrow, and then go to Taihe City to take back everything that belongs to me!"

Yao Hezhi raised his head slowly, his left eye was bloodshot, and his expression was extremely sad: "Aren't you most afraid of me and Xingzhu Yao killing each other? Why don't you wake up and stop me?"

The sleeping face has neither sadness nor joy, no worries and fears, and it has been "indifferent" for ten years.

After gazing for a long time, finally, he slowly lowered his head again, and said in a voice that could hardly be softer: "You lied to me again...you never have me in your heart..."

Suddenly, a tear fell from the tightly closed corner of the sleeping person's eyes, like the most crystal clear dewdrops, falling on the hibiscus on the sideburns.
