Tao Ran is happy

Prefect's House.

"gentlemen."

Looking up, Zhang He came, "Chang Ji."

"Why is Mr. here alone?"

I sat on the stone steps in the courtyard, smiled, "Yizhi followed others to get the invitation to enter the capital, I'm impatient with etiquette, so I'll just wait here." Then I asked, "Where are you?"

Zhang He helped me stand up, "There are 30 people ready, and they are waiting for the road."

"Yeah." He looked up at the sky.

Yesterday, I had divorced people in the village, everyone sighed, among them Xun Shi cried the most, he dragged his life and death and refused to let go, and he managed to get away with a lot of benefits.Today I was afraid of parting, so I came here early in the morning. I just saw Xu An and the naive and ignorant Xu Xiaobaozi. At this moment, I felt a little sad, "When Yizhi comes back, we will..."

A yamen servant next to me carried a tray and walked by. When I saw the things on it, I froze suddenly and said loudly: "Wait!"

The other party looked back.

He stared at the tray with wide eyes, and trembled slightly, "That's..."

"Back to Mr. Li," the yamen servant came over and looked at what I was pointing at, his tone of surprise was still respectful, "The criminal evidence left during the interrogation of the prisoners the day before yesterday."

"That man, that prisoner, is he still alive?"

The yamen servant looked at me even more strangely, but replied seriously: "I was seriously injured when I came here. I thought I wouldn't live for a few days and didn't even dare to use the punishment. I didn't want to be able to survive until now."

Zhang He also looked at me suspiciously, "Sir?"

I took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and said after opening them: "Li Rong, please take me to have a look."

"Mr. Li is polite." The young yamen servant was a little apprehensive, "you should obey orders."

The dark dungeon is full of damp, rancid, foul smell, moaning, cursing, and pleading for help filling the surroundings, bringing waves of oppressive heaviness, and the creepiness of the crutches hitting the ground, which cannot be dispelled by the torches on the walls. A coldness that seemed to seep into the bones.

It was in such a place that I met him.

I was accompanied by rats and insects in a stench and blood, and I didn't even have a bed or bedding, just curled up in the corner of the cell like that.

His hair was so scattered that I couldn't see his already ruined face clearly.

I wanted to ask him if he was okay, but no matter what, I couldn't say such hypocritical words.

I still wanted to ask why I persisted even after this happened, but I knew that I never even had the right to ask questions.

Tightly pursing my lips, I will ask for it from the yamen servant, the white jade that has already been cracked and dyed bright red is lightly placed on the prison door.

He exhaled deeply, stood up, and wanted to go out.

Although I don't have much strength, before entering the capital, I can at least use my power to ask for the people here to treat him well.

"Li Rong."

The person with his back to me didn't turn his head, but his voice was as hoarse as sand and stones rubbing against it. He was bleeding and scabbed, but it couldn't get better.

I can't find the high-spiritedness I've heard before.

I stood still.

The man was panting and coughing violently, his heart and lungs were trembling, and the sound of breathing seemed to be dying, but his tone was surprisingly flat, "That day, if I hadn't planned to cheat on that day, I would have done it immediately after discovering your identity." Be clear about your interests and treat each other with sincerity, you still..." He coughed harder, but he still struggled to make a sound, "You still..."

If that day, he just imprisoned me to prevent me from threatening his big plan, don't use scheming, don't insult me ​​and hurt me, treat him with courtesy, and befriend a gentleman...

I lowered my eyes and interrupted him, "There are so many ifs in this world."

The people behind were silent for a moment, but gradually laughed in the next moment.

Low, depressed, coughing and laughing, coughing while laughing, shaking the dark cell, heart-piercing and even the ropes wrapped around the viscera were affected by it, as his smile became more and more It was getting bigger and bigger, and the pain was getting bigger and bigger.

"Li Rong, you will regret it, you will definitely regret it."

A vicious smile finally appeared in his voice, "I really want to see it, I really want to see your expression at that time."

Lifting the crutches, she moved slowly step by step, her body seemed to be so tired that she no longer had any extra strength, "I'm leaving, take care of yourself."

As I approached the entrance, a bright light suddenly shone over me, causing me to raise my palm to cover my sight.

"Rong'er."

Stunned, he lowered his arms, and saw Gu Ning standing in the sun in a fallen green shirt, his body seemed to be filled with soft light, which made the cold and painful heart warm and alive.

"Let's go." He smiled softly and held out his hand to me.

I laughed too and took his hand.

"Ah."

The sky is slightly cloudy, the sun is hidden behind thick clouds, only a hazy piece of light shines through, and there is also cold humidity in the air.

The carriage moved forward slowly, Zhang He was riding outside, and occasionally heard Ma Quan talking and laughing with him.

I was obsessed with the bamboo flute that Gu Ning made by himself. I tried two notes, but no matter how I fiddled with my fingers, I couldn't hear it.

There was a touch of coolness on my forehead, I looked up, and saw Gu Ning smiling slightly, stroking my eyebrows, and then touching my cheek, "No hurry, take your time."

I threw away the bamboo flute, leaned down and lay down, put my head on his lap, hugged his waist, and rubbed it in his arms, "play the piano for me."

Gu Ning removed the hairpin on my head, and when the long hair fell down, he smoothed my hair with his fingers, "Okay."

Close your eyes, and the melody that you have memorized slowly plays in your ears.

That melodious and ethereal, like the most free and unrestrained dream, sent all the emotions, sorrows and joys.

I opened my mouth softly, and sang in a manly voice: "When the autumn wind rises, the white clouds fly, and the grass and trees fall yellow, and the geese return to the south. The orchids are beautiful, the chrysanthemums are fragrant, and the beautiful women are unforgettable. Panlou boats come to the Fen River, and the middle flow Xiyang Subo. Flute and drums beeping and oars singing, joyful and sorrowful. How old are you when you are young!"

Gu Ning's qin kept playing, and the phonology was still like a fairy. It was rare for me to get out of tune, and followed his qin, singing and singing.

The thunder roared, and the sky became darker. Zhang He knocked on the wall of the car outside, "Mr. Gu, it seems that the weather is going to rain, do you want to find a place to take shelter temporarily?"

Gu Ning hugged me who was nestled in his arms and said, "That's fine."

I dawdled to get up, "Is there a village nearby?" After just a while, I could already hear the sound of the pattering rain starting to fall.

Gu Ning lifted the curtain to look outside, and shook his head, "The forests here are quite dense, and it's not easy to find. I just hope that there is a temple or a mansion around... Be careful!"

I was yawning and listening to him halfway through what he was saying, when suddenly my head was pinned down and I fell flat on the mat and rolled to one side.

"Why..." Before he could ask, he heard screams from outside, and then an arrow shot into the carriage with a "buzz", and the wind that brushed his cheek was so sharp that it could cut the skin, nailing it to the The tail feathers on the car wall were still vibrating.

"Sir!" The carriage moved forward violently, and Zhang He shouted outside, "There is an enemy attack!"

Gu Ning pulled me out at once, "Abandon the cart!" Pushing me onto the horse, he grabbed Zhang He with a wave and threw the long sword out of its sheath, cut off the rope connecting the horse to the cart, and shouted, "Quickly enter the forest!" !"

The crackling of the raindrops became heavier, and thunder began to flash in the sky, "Yizhi!" Seeing dozens of people suddenly appear from the forest, I pulled the reins of the horse to stop the direction.

Gu Ning grabbed my waist and cut off the arrows that shot from the side with a sword, "This way."

"Damn! What's going on!" A few more screams sounded, and there were fewer and fewer guards around us. Ma Quan fell off his horse because of avoidance, and said angrily, "Who are these people!"

Zhang He swung his blade and chopped off the head of the rushing person, the blood spurted high into the sky at once, joined the mixed blood rain, and then fell down one after another, overflowing with blood.

"Don't talk too much, let's go!"

Suddenly there was a thunderclap, and the rain became heavier.

Bastard, in this kind of weather, gunpowder is not used at all.

Dozens of people suddenly rushed out of the side grass with sharp blades, and slashed at the leg of the horse that Gu Ning and I were riding. Gu Ning grabbed my belt to protect me and rolled to the side. I, who couldn't move my legs on my back, said, "Hurry up." I ran to the depths of the woods.

In the end, there were only a few people guarding behind us. I saw the blood, the blood of those people flowed into the river.

What's wrong……

What the hell is going on...

Obviously just now I heard everyone talking and laughing together, talking about the beauty and fun of the capital...

Gu Ning hid in a hidden beast cave with my back on his back, and Zhang He Maquan immediately followed in, bent down, and his muscles stiffened on guard.

There are still people outside, searching inch by inch.

As soon as I fell down, I let out a muffled groan, and fell to the ground with my right leg in my arms, sweating profusely.

"Rong'er!"

Gu Ning quickly came over to check, nervously said: "What's wrong!"

"It's okay," I panted, trying to force a smile at me, "When I jumped off the horse just now, I was frustrated."

Gu Ning also put his palm on my leg at this moment, seeing the blood stains on the already soaked trouser legs and the slightly distorted legs, he trembled slightly and did not dare to move.

"Yizhi, it's okay," I grabbed him, "That's not my blood," I tried my best to pretend nothing happened, and convinced him, "It's not my blood, I can walk."

"Really! I can walk!"

Gu Ning only pursed his lips and watched quietly.

"Yizhi..."

"Gu Yizhi!"

Gu Ning and I were startled at the same time and looked out.

"Gu Yizhi! Get the fuck out of me!" There was a loud shout from outside, the violent and cruel breath could be heard almost without distinguishing, and there was a deep-rooted hatred, "You shameless Get out of here quickly!"

This voice seems to have been heard somewhere...

who is it……

"Mr. Gu..."

Zhang He and Ma Quan turned their heads to look.

Gu Ning was silent for a while, then stood up with an indifferent expression.

I was so startled that I immediately grabbed his hand, and a deep sense of fear welled up in my heart, and I shouted, "What are you doing!"

Gu Ning paused slightly, turned his head to look at me, slowly pulled a gentle smile from the corner of his lips, and gently stroked my head, "Rong'er, you hide here, I..."

"I won't hide!" I became even more frightened, and grabbed his arm tightly, "What are you doing! I won't let you go!"

Gu Ning bent down, grabbed my wrist with both hands, slowly opened it, cut it behind the back, and held it with one hand.

"Yizhi!" I was not as strong as him, I was struggling to escape but I couldn't, I was already crying, "Yizhi!"

Standing aside, I cried to Zhang He and Ma Quan: "Bastards! You are blind! Let him let me go!"

Zhang He took a step forward, Gu Ning glanced over and stopped him.

He turned his head, raised his hand to stick to my face, and then slowly kissed my forehead. After a long pause, he raised his head, wiped away the tears on my face, and then moved his palm to my face. the back of my neck.

He looked at me and said softly, "Wait for me."

There was a pain in my neck, and I hid, but there was still a dark dizziness in front of my eyes, and I fell to the side powerlessly.

"Wait for me, Rong'er."

The strength in my hands gradually lost, I tried my best to reach out and grab his clothes, tears had already blurred my eyes and I couldn't see his face clearly, "Don't go..."

The slippery fabric slipped from the fingertips, never to be found again.

"Don't go..."

You said you would stay with me...

don't leave me...

Yizhi, don't leave me alone...
