Twilight Cloud Returns

Wei Yao was lying on the horse's back, covered in blood, and unconscious.

Su Heyue's anxious expression was beyond words, "Ayao, you have to hold on, we are going back to Liangzhou soon, back to Qinghe Garment Factory, and never come back to this ghostly place..."

When she saw someone in the night outside the city gate, she was immediately alert.

Yun Chuxiu stepped forward, Su Heyue saw clearly that it was the General and Young Master Qing, they were in peace, and they seemed to be leaving Guyong City.

But she, A Yao, Wu Zhiqiu and others kidnapped Mr. Qing and concealed her true identity.No matter which one, it was enough for her to die.

Unexpectedly, after escaping a disaster, there is another catastrophe ahead.

She turned her head to look at A Yao who was beaten unconscious by Mo Chun, her heart slumped, she protected him behind her back, and said as if dying: "The bitch is willing to pay for her sins with death, and only asks to spare my husband's life."

After finishing speaking, he took out a dagger from his cuff. This dagger was given by Cha Er when he sent her to escape from the royal court, so that she could use it for self-defense. She didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

When the tip of the knife was only a few feet away from her neck, Yun Chuxiu decisively flew out of the feather fan at her waist, preventing her from committing suicide.

Su Heyue was puzzled, and wanted to speak in disbelief, but he heard him say coldly: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, and leave with this general as soon as possible."

A group of people swung their whips at high speed, and unknowingly, they had reached the depths of the desert.

The sun was rising in the east, and Wu Qing's face turned pale due to the bumpy road.

They had penetrated deep into the desert, and even if Mo Chun found out, it was too late to send troops to chase after them.

When Yun Chuxiu saw the discomfort caused by the exhaustion of the Wuqing boat, she immediately stopped the trip and rested on the spot.

He hugged Wuqing down, the little hands shrunk inside the cloak were like ice cubes in winter.

Yun Chuxiu tested the temperature of his forehead with her hand, but it was hot.

He immediately nervously called Yunying's younger brother, who knew a little bit about medicine and could even diagnose the pulse.

Brother Yunying took his pulse and said solemnly: "Young master, although this subordinate is not proficient in medical skills, he still knows a thing or two about cold symptoms. Mr. Qing, this is a relapse of an old disease, and the wind and sand all the way are bitter and cold. The disease is very dangerous.”

"Young Master, although my subordinates have brought some medicinal materials, they can only temporarily relieve Mr. Qing's symptoms. If you want to recover, you still need to rush back to Liangzhou City as soon as possible."

Wuqing, who was lying in Zhihuan's arms, could hear the words clearly. He gently tugged at Zhihuan's sleeve, and said with a weak smile, "How could it be so dangerous? The illness I brought on since I was a child, the habit of After a few days of recuperation, it will be back to normal..."

Wuqing is not trying to comfort Yun Chuxiu, he is indeed telling the truth.

When he was in Huishan Temple, Wulu always liked to make fun of him, Dao Wuqing was in the body of the delicate young master, but he didn't have the life of the delicate young master.

As a result, it was inconvenient for younger brother Yunying to say anything.He just felt that there was nothing wrong with the recurrence of the cold syndrome from the pulse, but he always felt that something was wrong, and it was the best policy to go back to Liangzhou City as soon as possible and ask Xinglin Sage Hand to take a look.

On the other side, Wei Yao's blood also temporarily stopped, but the injury was too serious and weak.

Yun Chuxiu was always skeptical of Wei Yao who appeared suddenly, but now that he was seriously injured, he couldn't ask questions, and it was impossible to throw him in the desert, so he had to wait and see what happened. I hope he was thinking too much.

Su Heyue took good care of Wei Yao and came to thank Yun Chuxiu.

Yun Chuxiu sat on the sandstone and said: "If you want to thank you, you should thank Young Master Qing. It is because he has a heart of compassion. I am grateful for your rescue along the way, which is also considered a blessing."

Su Heyue looked aside at Wuqing, who had another attack of cold, feeling extremely ashamed.

She thought, maybe there is always such a kind of people in this world who keep doing good deeds in mind all the time.And this kind of people will always complete their merits and virtues in the scriptures, and become immortals and Buddhas.It's just that I don't know whether Mr. Qing can have the blessing of becoming a god-like existence in the hearts of the world...

The weather in the desert is turbulent, often the sun shines brightly for a second, and the wind and rain blows suddenly.

Yun Chuxiu and his party dare not stay here for a long time.

Cloud Shadow fetched a compass and a map.Follow the path provided by Yafu, and naturally he can reach Liangzhou the fastest.

It's just that Yun Chuxiu can't let go of his guard against Yafu.

Although Yafu successfully escaped from Guyong City this time, it can be said that Yafu did his best with the excuse of ignorance.If he had really protected Wuqing, he would not have taken the risky move to tie him to the Huns in the first place.

Before he arrived in Guyong City, what happened in it caused Yafu to have a major change in Wuqing, and he even did not hesitate to challenge Mo Chun...

Yun Chuxiu couldn't figure it out.

As the saying goes, the heart of defense is indispensable, he thought over and over again, and finally delineated a place on the map with his fingers, and said with firm eyes, "Detour to Eagle Mountain."

The terrain of Eagle Falcon Mountain is steep, and ferocious birds and beasts haunt it all the year round.These birds and beasts live in the desert. Due to the scarcity of living things and the nature of hunger, they gradually eat the passers-by.The human flesh changed their temperament drastically, making them surly and irritable, and eager for human essence and blood even more.The bloodthirsty bright red eyes are the characteristics of these birds and beasts.

Before the disaster between Da Zhou and the Xiongnu, the caravans between the two countries were in disbelief. They even called Eagle Mountain the "Mountain of Death" and named the birds and beasts "Death".Encountering these manic bloodthirsty "Reapers" means that life has come to an end.

Seeing that the young master chose such a frightening place, Yun Ying turned pale with fright, and her tongue knotted involuntarily: "Young... young master, this is death... the mountain of death..."

Yun Chuxiu replied calmly: "Because it is the mountain of death, Mo Chun would not set up an ambush here if he wanted to intercept and kill us in the desert."

After he pointed to Eagle Falcon Mountain, "Cross the top of the mountain and go for more than a hundred miles to the border of Liangzhou, which is more time-saving than the route provided by my father."

As Yun Chuxiu spoke, his eyes involuntarily rested on Wuqing who was wrapped up in the cold, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.In addition to the above reasons, there was another reason he failed to say—that is, Ah Qing's cold didn't allow them to continue on the original path.

For him, he is willing to go to the mountain of death.

Yunying suddenly realized, and went down to prepare to detour to Eagle Falcon Mountain.

Yun Chuxiu picked up Wuqing in his arms, and then got on the horse himself.

The yellow sand blown by the strong wind rushed towards his face, he covered his mouth and nose, and said to Wu Qing behind him: "Ah Qing, hold me tight."

Wuqing weakly lay on Zhihuan's broad arms, his tall body blocked the hurting flying sand and rocks for him.Wuqing pressed close to his back, feeling sleepy invaded his body, so he could only murmur: "No matter when and where, I will never let go..."

Yun Chuxiu rubbed the fluff on the brim of his cloak and hat, and at this moment still did not forget to play tricks: "Let go of me and tie you to my side for a lifetime..."

Yunying led the team at the front, and Su Heyue and Yun Chuxiu rode side by side. The further they went, the more they felt something was wrong. She said suddenly: "General, are we going to Eagle Mountain?"

Yun Chuxiu didn't answer, just kicked the horse's belly, and walked forward past Su and Yue.

About evening, they arrived at Falcon Hill.

The warm sunset is reflected behind the mountain, and the whole mountain is covered with a warm orange color that does not match the desert.

The mountain walls on both sides are bare, and there is not even a dead tree that can shelter from the wind and rain. It really is a barren land without a blade of grass.

But the surrounding area is quiet, not to mention the bloodthirsty birds and beasts known as the god of death, not even a grasshopper can be seen.

Yunying breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that perhaps the stories compiled by those passing businessmen added mystery to the journey.

He found a shelter from the wind and managed to survive the night here.

A group of people leaned against the rocks to rest.And Wei Yao, who had been silent all day like a dead person, finally made some movement. He coughed heavily and regained most of his consciousness.

Su Heyue carefully fed him some water, his brows and eyes were full of concern, "Ayao, are you feeling better?"

Wei Yao supported his forehead, pretending to be in great pain, "Where is this..."

Su Heyue held his hand tightly, and said in a broad voice: "This is Eagle Mountain, after we climb over this mountain, we will go home..."

Wei Yao forcefully forced a smile, and said weakly, "Go home...go home...go home and live a peaceful life..."

On the other side, Wuqing was lying in Yunchuxiu's arms, only to feel that sometimes his body was as cold as an ice cellar, and sometimes it was scorching hot as if rolling over kerosene.

For some reason, he had a hunch that maybe this time it wasn't a cold at all, maybe it was some rare internal disease.His cold little hands stuck out from his cuffs, tightly grasped Zhihuan's palm, and said, "Zhihuan...I miss Huishan Temple so much...I miss Yulan Bieyuan..."

Yun Chuxiu thought that he was just missing him, so she whispered close to his ear and comforted him softly: "We're going back soon. As soon as I return to Beijing to report on my duties, I'll take you back to Huishan Temple right away, okay..."

But before he heard the answer, Wuqing's head that was resting on his arm suddenly dropped.

Yun Chuxiu suddenly panicked, "Ah Qing!"

Yun Ying's younger brother rushed over upon hearing the sound, and quickly caught Wuqing's pulse, with a cloudy expression on his face, "Young master... this..."

"Speak straight!"

Yun Chuxiu hugged Wuqing tightly, transferring her internal energy to him.

"Young Master Qing is suffering from a fever..."

Yun Chuxiu was puzzled, "Didn't he suffer from cold since childhood, why is he suffering from fever now?"

Brother Yunying took his pulse again, and after a moment of contemplation, he shook his head and said, "Young master, please forgive me for being incompetent. Mr. Qing suffers from a combination of cold and heat. I have never seen such a strange disease since I started to practice medicine..."

Yun Chuxiu's expression was gloomy, as if a long hole had been torn open by a ferocious beast, and it hurt.

His voice became hoarse for a moment, and he said, "What kind of treatment is there?"

Brother Yunying said: "I still have a few medicines, supplemented by the young master's internal strength, it will not be a problem to make it to Liangzhou..."

After hearing these words, Yun Chuxiu felt a little relieved.

At midnight, everyone fell into a deep sleep.He held Wuqing firmly in his arms, and whispered: "Ah Qing, you said that no matter when and where, you will never let go of me..."

The wind whizzed by all around her ears, and Yun Chuxiu covered Wuqing's clothes again.

In the quiet night, no one responded to him, he held Wuqing's hand, and closed his eyes anxiously.

The next day, just after waking up, several red-eyed birds and beasts landed on the smooth mountain walls on both sides, making rough and unpleasant calls, which woke everyone up.

Not far away, the sound of horseshoes rattling became clearer, and the stones on the ground trembled with the regular trampling.

An unexpected guest has arrived...
