Looking at the bright moon

It was a moonless and windless night, and the clouds were as thick as cotton wool that hadn't been torn apart, pressing down on the sky in clusters.The air is humid and hot, as if carrying a weight, pressing down on one's chest is very oppressive.

Two guards were standing outside the closed barn, smoking boredly. Not long after, two more guards slowly came out from the side moon door to meet them.A few people met and greeted each other, they probably knew each other well, and the two guards at the gate said: "Why did you come to change shifts today when the time is not up?"

The other party replied: "Li Er has something to tell you, you go quickly."

The two guards did not suspect him and left immediately.One of the guards outside the barn immediately took off his hat and saw that it was the skinny man who delivered the food earlier.He took out a key from his pocket, quickly opened the lock, quickly tore off the iron chain wrapped around the handle, and got into the door.

It was pitch black inside, the thin man took a few steps forward, and when he could vaguely see something, he immediately found Sheng Huan, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Sheng, let's go."

The person was shocked by his slap, and turned his head abruptly.As soon as the two met each other, the thin man immediately realized something was wrong. This was a strange and beautiful face, but the figure was similar to Sheng Huan, which led him to recognize the wrong person.The thin man's eyes froze, his face tensed, and he quietly put his hands behind his waist.He had just grasped the dagger, and before he took it out, he heard a low and clear voice: "Don't do it, you take him out, don't worry about me."

The thin man looked at the young man, and then at Sheng Huan who was sitting on the other side. He had a shrewd mind and quickly guessed Sheng Huan's intentions. His expression changed immediately, and he said in surprise, "How can this be done! Mr. Sheng, it's a relationship I can't tolerate you messing around with my life, so hurry up and follow me!"

After saying that, he stretched out his hand to grab Sheng Huan, but Sheng Huan hid back and insisted: "I won't go! Take him away quickly!"

The thin man couldn't stop stamping his feet in anxiety, and begged in a low voice: "Mr. Jingyuan has repeatedly told me to bring you to him completely. If I mess up, I will be severely punished! Young master!" , I beg you, just treat it as saving me, okay?"

Hearing his sincere words, Sheng Huan couldn't help biting his lips, feeling a little ashamed in his heart.But he had already made up his mind, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "If you don't agree, I'll lure others here now!"

He threw away such a threat, so the skinny man couldn't evade it, he gritted his teeth, sighed bitterly, and said: "Mr. Sheng, you are too stupid." After speaking, he grabbed Wen Yongtang and walked out.Wen Yongtang remained silent, and when the skinny man pulled, he followed obediently without struggling.

Another person poked his head in and asked, "Are you all right?"

The thin man replied: "Okay!" He stared at Yongtang with fierce eyes, pointed to the man outside the door: "Go and change clothes with him, and follow me honestly later, don't make a sound, Do you understand me?"

Yongtang was so frightened that he shrank back, and his face was ugly, but he still didn't say anything, and obediently changed clothes with the other person.

When he was about to go out, Yongtang suddenly turned his head and glanced at Shenghuan who was left behind.The other person's figure melted into the darkness, but he knew that Sheng Huan must be looking at him at this moment, looking at him with the straightforward and unshakable eyes just now.Sheng Huan was also afraid. When they were talking, he could sense the unconcealed tremor in the other's voice, but the moment Sheng Huan made his decision, he didn't hesitate at all. It was also at that moment that Wen Yongtang found out. A secret of carnival.

A secret they hid together in their hearts.

A muffled thunder rolled across the sky, there was a faint flash of lightning in the thick clouds, the leaves rustled, and at the same time there was a coolness on Yongtang's face, and the wind picked up.

The thin man locked the man together with Sheng Huan, and led Yongtang through the moon gate. There were several people guarding outside, so the thin man let him lean on him, stretched out an arm to wrap around his waist, and half dragged and half hugged him. take him outside.Yongtang's face was buried in the skinny man's shoulder, when he heard someone startled: "Yo, what's going on?"

"I don't know either. He complained of a stomachache not long after dinner, and now he can't stand still. I'll take him back first." The thin man laughed a few times: "Brother, please guard the gate for me first." , I’ll go back as soon as I go.”

The other party laughed and said: "You are more delicate than a big girl, go ahead."

Yongtang was carried out by the thin man, his legs became weak from nervousness, and his body trembled uncontrollably.After they walked for a while, the thin man pushed him away. At this moment, Yongtang's face was pale, and his hair was completely wet with sweat.Seeing his appearance, the thin man couldn't help but spat mockingly: "Look at you so cowardly."

They stood at the end of a long corridor, leading to a garden in front of it, which was illuminated by light bulbs, and there were many figures inside, and there seemed to be many guards.The thin man pulled Yongtang, walked to a white wall facing the garden gate, squatted down, and said to Yongtang: "Hurry up, step on me."

Yongtang looked at the high wall, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and stepped back timidly: "I, I can't go up."

"If you can't go up, you have to go up!" The thin man burst out with blue veins on his forehead, and said in a low voice: "Do you still want to live!"

A purple-red lightning tore through the clouds, briefly illuminating the pitch-black sky, making it especially terrifying against the current scene.Yongtang sobbed a few times, he was afraid of falling, but he was even more afraid of being caught by the kidnappers, in desperation, he had no choice but to climb onto the thin man's shoulders, let the other party take a deep breath, and lift him up.

Yongtang tremblingly climbed up, saw the darkness underneath, and couldn't tell whether it was mud or grass.As soon as he poked his head out halfway, there were a few rustling sounds from below, which made Yongtang scream out of shock, unable to stand anymore, and fell on his back.

"Who is it!" Someone shouted in the garden immediately, and several beams of light hit here at the same time.The skinny man cursed secretly, grabbed Yongtang, threw him against the wall with all his might, and shouted: "Go quickly! Run to the west, don't take the main road, there is a door there—"

There was another burst of thunder, and Yongtang was holding onto the wall with both hands and feet, almost crying: "I will fall to my death!"

Several hurried footsteps were approaching here, the thin man pulled out a gun from his belt, and kicked the wall hard: "Go!"

Yongtang loosened his hands and fell from the wall like a sack.He wanted to yell, but the fear of weightlessness forced his mind to go blank, leaving only one sentence.

I will fall to my death!

The next moment, he landed heavily on the ground with only a slight sound.Desperately, Yongtang touched his body, it was soft, full of overwhelmed wormwood, it was like a thick layer of blanket.His hands and feet were still weak, but he still staggered to prop himself up because he still remembered the pursuers on the other side of the wall.There was another flash of lightning above his head, and Yong Tang suddenly heard a few indistinct loud noises from a distance, which were gunshots.

Before those few voices were finished, there was also a thunderous shout from the opposite side of the wall: "Stop! Who are you!"

Then there was a bang, the gunshot was very close, as if the person who fired the gun was standing behind Yongtang.Yongtang was startled and jumped up, like a frightened sheep, he ran forward like a frightened sheep.

Where is east and where is west, he has no idea at all.The gunshots behind him quickly became as dense as a torrential rain, and together with the thunder that exploded, shook Yongtang's eardrums.There are people shooting far away, and people shooting nearby. It seems that gunshots are everywhere in this world.Yongtang has no time to think about the life and death of the skinny man, and he has no time to look back to see if anyone finds him. His back seems to be pushed by a pair of invisible hands, and he can only run forward with all his strength.

Ever since he was a child, what Yongtang feared the most was the sound of gunshots. Back then, he hid in a corner and watched his father get shot three times in a row and died in front of him.That scene is like a vivid nightmare, even though 11 years have passed, it is still deeply imprinted in Yongtang's mind.From then on, when Wen Mingyu wanted to teach him how to hold a gun, he cried and vomited, making the other party helpless, and finally gave up.

As soon as Yongtang thought of Wen Mingyu, he brought up the grievances he had suffered in the past few days, and couldn't help sobbing softly while running.

Not long after, Yongtang saw a door in the distance, it was half open, and there was no light outside the door.

He remembered the thin man's words, and ran towards it ecstatically, but when he got closer, he stopped suddenly - there were four people standing at the door, patrolling around with flashlights.One of them just turned around, and the bright light shone on his face, and that person immediately shouted, "Who?"

Seeing the man pull out his gun, he strode towards him.Yongtang's throat was dry, and he hurriedly backed away. Unexpectedly, before the other party approached, there was another gunshot, and a flower of blood exploded on the top of the man's head, and he collapsed limply.

In just a moment, the remaining guards were knocked down one by one, and a group of people got involved from outside the door. They kicked away several corpses, and at the same time saw Yongtang who was standing there dumbfounded.

"Master!" The leader immediately shouted, "Why are you here?"

The sound of thunder rolled rumbled among the clouds, and then the bright lightning flashed, and all the sounds were extinguished by the rainstorm in an instant.Sheng Huan sat in the warehouse, not hearing a gunshot for a long time, and couldn't help licking his dry lips, with heavy worries in his heart.

Why did the gunfire stop? Did Yongtang escape, or were they captured?

He remembered that when he persuaded Yongtang before, the other party didn't trust him very much at first, and couldn't listen to him at all. Gave him a slap in the face.

"You must escape alive, or wait for Wen Mingyu to rescue you tomorrow, and we will all be blown to death on the mountain together!" Sheng Huan knew that his expression must have been terrifying at that time, Yongtang was so frightened that his eyes widened and he remained motionless. looking at him.

Sheng Huan sneered: "Or, you just dare to sit here and watch Wen Mingyu die for you, expecting him to take care of you like this in the next life?"

Hearing this sentence, Yongtang opened his hand suddenly, blushing with anger, "You better not lie to me." He took a breath, his face was still angry, but there was water rolling down from his eyes : "If you lie to me, I won't let you go!"

They stared at each other for a while, Yongtang looked away first, raised the back of his hand and wiped his face indiscriminately.Sheng Huan seemed to see something familiar in the other party's eyes, he wasn't sure, but he recalled the other party's hostility of unknown origin in the past, if that was the case, they could all be explained.

Sheng Huan stared at Yongtang, feeling ridiculous, and felt sorry for him in the same predicament.

He stared blankly at the small window, and whenever the lightning flashed, the heavy rain outside the window would be reflected.What was Wen Mingyu's situation during the days when he was imprisoned by Sheng Yunye, and how did he escape?He had his hamstring picked, and he was able to kill the guards and escape. Sheng Huan curled up his legs unconsciously, stroking the veins behind his heels with his fingertips, a layer of cold fear slowly soaked in his heart, thinking: Then he must It hurts.

At that time, he wanted to prevent Wen Mingyu from going up the mountain with all his heart, but when he sent Yongtang away, Sheng Huan seemed to realize the consequences of doing so, his back was sweating all the time, and he couldn't even sit still.But if he had to choose again, Sheng Huan would still let Yong Tang go.Wen Mingyu had given him a lot of help, but he never found a chance to repay him.Perhaps this little kindness is nothing to that person, but if he hadn't met Wen Mingyu, Sheng Huan might still be trapped in that dark past, becoming a person worse than Sheng Yunyi.

What's more... His life was given by Wen Mingyu, and if you give it back to him now, maybe he won't have to be so embarrassing when he sees the other party in the future.

If he can still see Wen Mingyu.

The barn suddenly lit up and was illuminated by electric light. Sheng Huan was waiting for the thunder that was coming, but when he heard a "bang", the two doors of the barn opened suddenly, and the cold night wind immediately swept the rain into his face. Breaking in with the wind were several angry kidnappers.The young man walked in the front and grabbed the two people in the barn to look at them. His hands were trembling, his face was twisted, and he held up Sheng Huan's face to look over and over again.

The next moment, he threw Sheng Huan away and shouted with all his strength, "Wen Yongtang!" The young man went around the barn again, grabbed Sheng Huan, and with a little light, Sheng Huan saw the whites of his eyes. Covered with bloodshot eyes, he looked like a lunatic: "Where did Wen Yongtang go!"

At the same time, at the foot of Fengsong Mountain, a car sped across the empty road, turned around the end of the mountain road, and when it merged into Chengmen Avenue, there were already several cars parked quietly in front of it, as if waiting for its arrival.When the two sides met, the car stopped suddenly, the tires splashed a large amount of muddy water, and the door opened quickly.

A tall man in black got out of the car in the heavy rain and shouted, "Master!"

A few people got on and off the other car in front, a few held umbrellas, and the rest opened the door. Wen Mingyu stepped out of the car, and heard the other party report excitedly in a subdued voice: "Master, we brought the young master back. He's in the car!"

Wen Mingyu's expression changed, and he immediately strode towards the car parked there.He walked fast, causing those people holding umbrellas to lose their footing. In an instant, Wen Mingyu was drenched, but she didn't care, opened the car door and got in.

Yong Tang just huddled in the back seat, wrapped in a blanket, closed his eyes tightly, his face was pale, maybe he passed out.As soon as Wen Mingyu leaned over, Yongtang immediately opened his eyes, and at the same time he saw him, the person rushed over, crashed into Wen Mingyu's arms, and wailed, "Uncle!"

He cried so much that his body trembled, and his fingers tightly grasped Wen Mingyu's skirt, looking extremely aggrieved.Wen Mingyu's throat choked up, she couldn't ask anything, she could only keep silent, stroking Yongtang's head over and over again.

At this moment, the driver suddenly said: "Third Master, we encountered some accidents on the way to save the young master."

For some reason, when Wen Mingyu heard these words, Wen Mingyu's heart skipped a beat, as if foreshadowing something.He patted Yongtang, and asked in a deep voice: "What accident?"

The driver said: "It stands to reason that you sent Huang Shaotong's men to attack Huang Shaotong and attract his attention. There should be only one place where there is gunfire." Mansion, but found two gunshots. And, and the young master escaped by himself!"

"We met the young master just after killing the gatekeepers. He was alone, standing not far from the gate." The driver scratched his hair with a puzzled expression on his face: "We think this is a bit strange, so we I want to tell you something special."

Hearing his description, Wen Mingyu understood what was going on, besides the people he sent to rescue Yongtang, there was another group of people hiding in the small mansion, and it was they who rescued Yongtang.

He couldn't guess the identities of that group of people for a moment, he was about to call Yongtang to ask, but found that the other party had already passed out in his arms, without a sound.

Wen Mingyu couldn't bear to wake up the other party at this time, he didn't stay any longer, and asked the driver to drive the car back to Longyuan directly.Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the city gate, the driver suddenly cursed, slowed down, and said angrily: "You don't want to die!"

The bright headlights illuminated the dark street, Wen Mingyu raised her head in response, and found a small black figure kneeling in the middle of the street not far ahead, looking in their direction.

This scene seemed familiar, before the driver could say anything, Wen Mingyu gave the order first: "Stop!"

Jiang Li's eyes were pierced by the car lights and he couldn't open them. He raised his arms to block the light in front of him.Not long after, he heard the sound of brakes and the soft sound of footsteps stepping into the muddy water.The lights of the car went out suddenly, and there was only the faint light of street lamps left in front of him.It delicately illuminates the land in front of Jiang Li.

Several men held umbrellas, surrounded a young man in a black suit and overcoat, and walked slowly in front of him.Jiang Li was instructed to come here, and he guessed the identity of the young man without looking carefully.He was so afraid that he kept shaking, walked a few steps on his knees, moved to the young man, kowtowed to him a few times, and cried: "Mr. Wen, I am Shenghuan's friend, please. Please Save Shenghuan's life."

Through the loud rain, Jiang Li heard a hoarse and soft voice: "Speak clearly."

"Xiao Sheng was kidnapped a few days ago!" He couldn't help raising his head, tears fell from his eyes mixed with rain: "I've been waiting for him for several days, but he hasn't come back, Mr. Wen, only you I can help him!"

A shrill lightning flashed, and amidst the roaring thunder, Jiang Li saw Wen Mingyu's face clearly.It was a delicate pale face, the eyes were darker than the sky in the rainy night, and the light of the rain was reflected in it, looking at him coldly and bitterly.
