Half-dead paulownia

Xiao Jinmo looked towards the direction of the Anling Imperial City with solemn eyes, and said lightly, "I would like to let him know a man named Xiao Jinmo again." This time I didn't give up.

Guiyue looked at Xiao Jinmo in surprise, he never thought that he, who used to let go of everything, would persist so persistently now.

"Okay, then I am willing to accompany you all the way." Guiyue finally did not stop Xiao Jinmo, because he saw the determination.

"Guiyue, in fact, you don't have to do this. Let me go alone in the future. Some things should be let go. This protection of redemption is too heavy for you and me." Xiao Jinmo said in a low voice. sound.

Guiyue glanced at Xiao Jinmo with deep eyes, got up and moved her muscles, as if she was tired from sitting for too long, "No matter what you think of my concern for you, I will continue to do so, maybe I'm used to it .”

Xiao Jinmo heard Guiyue's response and didn't say anything more. Under Guiyue's seemingly indifferent expression, she didn't know how much helplessness and bitterness was hidden.

(in the woods)

Pieces of dead leaves were ruthlessly rolled down by the autumn wind, flying lonely in the forest, without purpose, without hope, floating in this desolate world.

"Duguao, I have been deceiving you all this time." Ye Lan looked at Duguao who had been turning his back to him, and didn't know how to speak.

"Tell me, is this a dream?" Duguao said with a trembling voice, "If it's a dream, let me wake up quickly before I turn around again."

"It turns out that you are just like me, afraid of losing and desperately longing for it." Ye Lan couldn't help showing a somewhat gratified smile, and walked forward slowly, wrapping her hands around Duguao's waist.

Finally, it was no longer a frosty expression, Duguao's nose burst into sourness, and he tightly held the hands resting on his waist, "Shouldn't this dream never wake up?"

"Just keep sleeping like this." Ye Lan leaned her head against Duguao's back.

"But I still need to solve one thing." Dugu Ao said suddenly affirmatively: "When the matter is settled, as a repayment to you, no matter where you go, I will accompany you to grow old together." , gently separated Ye Lan's hands.

"Duguao, do I want you to accompany me now?" Ye Lan suddenly had a nervous tone, trying to persuade her to keep something.

"I must fulfill the responsibilities and commitments that a man should have. Only I can solve this matter, and it must be resolved by me." Ye Lan, who has always been reluctant to look back at her thoughts, "Ye Lan, here Wait for me, I will definitely take you away before sunset, and make up for those broken thoughts in the past."

"I'll wait for you, I'll always wait for you." Ye Lan finally let go completely, because he knew that Duguao's intention to go was already decided, without any exhortations, and without much nostalgia, just a faint sentence, but contained With the blessings that permeate the muscles and bones.

Looking at the back of Duguao leaving, Ye Lan understood everything, he was looking for Luo Shengchuan, maybe there was a reason why he had to go, how could he keep Duguao's footsteps with that determination?

Seemingly moving forward, but every step I want to stop and look back, even if it is just a glance, but I leave even faster after riding the horse. Without determination, because Luo Shengchuan must personally catch it, it is to avenge Ye Lan and settle his many years of grievances. This is the grand wish he made when he woke up and knew Ye Lan was dead, so he thought desperately. To take revenge on Anling Yuhao, now that the truth is revealed, he also needs to give an explanation to the person who was accidentally injured because of being deceived, so at this moment it is not only revenge, but also debt repayment.

Dugu Ao also knew one more important thing, that is Luo Shengchuan's hiding place. He knew that he had no way out, and he would not return to Yanchikou, so only that place would go, and that was because he saved Luo Shengchuan back then. Luo Shengchuan's place, I remember what he said at the time, the scenery here is beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there is even an uninhabited house, it seems that there must have been people who liked this place, and I will also retire to this good place in the future.

Thinking of this, Duguao couldn't help speeding up, he and Luo Shengchuan should settle the new and old accounts together.

Finally, I came to the dangerous place without stopping. Looking around, there is no vitality of spring, but it is not the depression and indifference of autumn. cheerful.

At a glance, I can see the small wooden house that still exists. It seems that many years have not destroyed it, but it looks stronger than before. Maybe more people have passed by here and repaired it.

Duguao cautiously walked towards the wooden house step by step, quickly judged whether there were people around, and finally pushed open the wooden door slowly, guarding against attacks from others at any time.

Looking inside quietly, there is nothing but a dilapidated table and a simple wooden bed. There seems to be a spider web at the door, as if no one has lived in it for a long time.

Duguao was secretly curious, could it be that he guessed wrong?But in his doubts, he suddenly discovered the mark left on the wooden table, because it was a deep mark made by a sharp sword, and there was too much dust in the room, which would cause marks to be left on anything placed.

Just when he realized it, his waist was already pressed against by a cold vessel, but it was too late for Dugu Ao to understand.

"Why, brother Dugu is really attached to me." Luo Shengchuan's sinister voice came from next to my ear.

"Compared to what Master Luo is obsessed with, what is my point?" Dugu Ao was not afraid of Luo Shengchuan's threat at this moment.

"Since Mr. Dugu said so, it seems that I have to continue my persistence." Luo Shengchuan suddenly exerted force, and the sharp sword pierced Duguao's body mercilessly, and at the critical moment, Duguao quickly fell forward, turned over at the same time, and shot a dart.

Luo Shengchuan had no time to dodge, and was stabbed between his left eye, "Ah!" A shrill roar sounded, and his hands hurriedly covered his left eye, but blood also flowed down like an eruption.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dugu Ao forced out the sharp arrow stuck in his body, took the arrow stained with his own blood, and stabbed Luo Shengchuan's chest without the slightest hesitation.

I saw him dodge quickly, pull out the dart viciously, let the blood run down his cheek, and leap into the air, Ling Fei kicked the arrow in Duguao's hand into two pieces.

The formal contest between the two began outside the house. The two fought on equal terms, and their fierce attacks could not hurt each other.

Luo Shengchuan suddenly rushed towards Duguao like crazy, the power in his hand glowed with black light, although he dodged quickly, he was finally pushed far away by Luo Shengchuan's evil internal force, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

When Luo Shengchuan attacked violently again, Dugu Ao spun up, gathered all his strength in the palm of his hand, and stood on top of Luo Shengchuan's head, a powerful and rapid force swept away from above, hitting the vital point directly.

When Duguao stood in front of Luo Shengchuan panting, although he stopped all movements, he could still see the wound on his left eye still dripping blood under the bloodless face, and his hands were still clenched into fists .

In just an instant, Luo Shengchuan fell down slowly. Duguao picked up the broken broken sword and walked to his side, looked at him who was breathing weakly and said: "This is your thing, it must be returned to the original owner. .”

"Du??? Duguao, the old man misjudged you that day." Luo Shengchuan said weakly.

"I shouldn't have saved you that day." Duguao said coldly.

"Haha???" Luo Shengchuan ninja was in great pain, but still sneered: "Kill me, let that secret go with me forever."

Duguao couldn't help being a little surprised, "Don't play tricks with me, do you think I will still trust you?" Although he said so, the dagger he raised in his hand still didn't stab.

"Ye??? Ye Lan's biological parents, don't you want to know?" Luo Shengchuan cunningly told Ye Lan, this is indeed Duguao's fate.

There was a moment of silence, Luo Shengchuan looked at Duguao who was hesitant, and couldn't help touching the front of his shirt with trembling hands, "If you show him this thing, I don't believe he won't understand." Before he took out the object, But it's so true.

At this moment, Duguao was even more hesitant, as if this Luo Shengchuan really knew something. From the moment he knew Ye Lan was an orphan, Duguao knew that his greatest wish was to find his parents, but there was no clue at all. , I can only pray for God's favor, but after searching hard, now I got the news from Luo Shengchuan, how could this make Duguao give up?

At the moment when he nervously stared at Luo Shengchuan taking out objects from his arms, Duguao's eyes instantly darkened, as if his eyes were fascinated, and he couldn't open them due to the stinging pain.

"I said that even if I die, someone must be buried with me." Luo Shengchuan's ghostly words sounded, and another broken arrow pierced deeply into Duguao's heart, and his last breath dissipated in the air. this wilderness.

I just felt that my chest seemed to be hollowed out by something, and all the memories were slowly dissipating, and I couldn't see the last glimpse of the world with my closed eyes. Resentment, I vaguely remember who is waiting for me, who is obsessed with who I can't let go of, that familiar name, that familiar figure, before I have time to engrave my thoughts, I look at the world.

Ye Lan, forgive me for passing by your side in this life, forgive me for not fulfilling all the promises I made to you, you and I will miss it after all, if meeting me is a mistake in itself, then don’t have any more in the rest of your life I???The situation is changing, the sky was clear just now, but now there is a gust of wind, which makes the branches and leaves in these autumn days more frenzied, stirring up uneasiness, and the bright red flowing on the golden leaves is also shining, telling my own The vicissitudes and tenacity have dyed the melancholy and despair of the whole place.
