June rain [gl]

June day, baby face.The sky was still clear in the morning, but it was overcast before noon.Seeing that the storm was approaching and it was difficult to travel, Lu Lin said to Yang Tan: "The heavy rain in June comes and goes quickly. Your clothes are thin, and you are easy to catch the wind and cold when you get wet in the rain. It is better to find a house to take shelter first."

Yang Tan nodded: "What the heroine said is true."

Although it was expected, Lu Lin felt relieved.

Since she escorted Yang Tan to the south, she has experienced all kinds of hardships, but this former lady of the general's mansion has never said a word "no", let alone complained.Lu Lin was born in martial arts, and suffered a lot from peeing, and he still doesn't understand the minds of girls his age, let alone such a rich lady.Moreover, Miss Yang just suffered the pain of losing her father and home not long ago, although she managed to save her life in a hurry, it is useless to grieve in her heart, she must be more moody than before, and it is difficult to deal with it.I thought it would be a hard job, but unexpectedly, apart from her frail body, she would be short of breath after walking for a few miles, so she was very relieved in other places, and often took care of her itinerary for her.Since she is so friendly, Lu Lin is not willing to treat her badly, even if Yang Tan doesn't mention it, he still pays attention to her everywhere.She has no father and no mother, although she doesn't understand Yang Tan's mourning, she also knows that it is a major event in life.

Seeing that Yang Tan was silent and seemed to be preoccupied, Lu Lin coughed lightly and said: "Miss Yang, don't worry, this road is all a wild trail, and it's not easy to find it. The narrow place only allows two people to walk side by side, so there is a pursuit." Bing, you won't be able to catch up with the two of us for a while."

Yang Tan raised his head in surprise, and smiled gently at Lu Lin: "Yes."

Lu Lin said again: "The sun is shining, and General Yang's grievances must be washed away."

Yang Tan smiled again, still very polite: "Thank you, lady."

Lu Lin pursed his lips, and said again: "On the day of the search, Miss Yang happened to be at the Sixth Prince's place, and she escaped a catastrophe, and this is how she is today. It can be seen that Miss Yang is a lucky person, and she will surely meet the evil this time." Huaji."

Yang Tan still smiled: "Auspicious words for a heroine."

Seeing that she didn't believe her, Lu Lin hurriedly said: "The sixth prince has already made arrangements, and someone will meet him as soon as he enters the Chuan Shu Garden. Although Lu only has one sword, he can stop a hundred pursuers, and he will definitely protect Miss Yang. "

Only then did Yang Tan raise his eyebrows to look at Lu Lin, and said with a smirk, "The sixth prince's arrangement is naturally appropriate."

Lu Lin was encouraged by her, and said more seriously: "Although Yang's mansion was sealed, Miss Yang's relatives were only detained, and did not lose their lives. As long as they are still alive, there is still hope. The sixth prince will also speak to the emperor, Gain opportunities for the young and old of the Yang family."

Yang Tan looked at her, and suddenly smiled: "The rain is about to fall, female hero."

Lu Lin was startled, only to realize that there was indeed a bit of coolness on his face.Now that the strong wind is blowing and the heavy rain is coming, Lu Lin didn't dare to delay any longer. Lu Lin made a decisive decision, turned around and walked against the mountain road, and climbed to the top of the mountain.The mountain road was rugged, Yang Tan struggled to follow, his foot slipped in a hurry, before he exclaimed, Lu Lin grabbed his hand and pulled him up.Yang Tan was panting and startled, while thanking: "Thank you, heroine." Lu Lin didn't answer, and didn't let go of his hands, and dragged Yang Tan away.Yang Tan was startled again, and subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but he was not as fast and strong as Lu Lin, and he didn't move even after struggling.Yang Tan groaned in pain, Lu Lin woke up and raised his voice: "This mountain is deserted, and the products are abundant. There must be a place for hunters to rest on the top of the mountain. If you don't hurry up, heavy rain will pour on the road. This dirt field is unbelievable."

Yang Tan understood immediately, and hurriedly gathered his energy, followed quickly, and bowed his head in response: "Thank you for your enlightenment."

As soon as I reached the top of the mountain, I saw a simple thatched hut with a straw roof and wooden walls.Yang Tan hesitated and dared not trespass, Lu Lin said "Excuse me", pushed the door open and entered.There is no one else in the house, only a table, a chair, a bed and a stove, and the occupant is only one person.Yang Tan walked in slowly, looked at it, and said: "Sure enough, it's the place where the hunter lives temporarily. The heroine's expectations are not bad, it's really admirable."

Lu Lin smiled heartily: "I'm used to running outside, I didn't learn the serious ones, but I learned a lot about the messy ones, Miss Yang laughed."

But Yang Tan turned around, looked at her fixedly and said: "Women don't have to be overly modest. What do you mean by 'serious', and what do you mean by 'not serious'? My father doesn't let me touch swords and soldiers, he only teaches me to read military strategy, Jingshiziji. Jingshiziji is naturally 'serious', but how can it help you and me at the moment? On the contrary, the martial arts and wisdom of the female hero can save your life."

Lu Lin had already sat down on the couch at this time, but Yang Tan was still standing, and when Yang Tan looked up and down like this, his heart trembled for no reason.Lu Lin shifted his gaze and said with a smile: "Miss Yang was joking. Although Lu has not read many books, he also knows that war depends on strategy. In the face of strategy, what is the courage of a man? What about Lu's cleverness?" Can it be called "wisdom"? General Yang teaches Miss Yang to practice the art of war is wisdom, and the six princes mediate the court is wisdom. Martial arts is only the power of one person, but strategy can lead the power of thousands of people. Although Lu can protect Yang Miss Yang's order is also assigned by the Sixth Prince, without the Sixth Prince, this martial art would be useless. Miss Yang should respect and thank you, and should not be to me, but the Sixth Prince."

Although she gave up the tables and chairs in the room early, Yang Tan didn't sit down for a long time. Hearing her words, he was even more thoughtful and had no intention of taking a seat.Just listen to Yang Tan said: "I dare not forget the great kindness of the Sixth Prince. Listening to the meaning of the heroine, could it be that the Sixth Prince also has great kindness for the heroine?"

Lu Lin smiled and said: "In this world, Lu is the only one who has received the favor of the Sixth Prince! The Sixth Prince has the kindness of nurturing and nurturing Lu, just like reborn parents. In order to repay this kindness, Lu is willing to be the Sixth Prince's sword and imitate the dogs and horses Thanks for your help." She urged again: "After the rain, the mountain road will be more difficult to walk, if you don't take advantage of this time to rest, you may not be able to walk later."

I don't know if he listened to her words, or if he was really tired, Yang Tan bent over and sat down on the chair, but instead of facing Lu Lin, he turned to face out of the window.The rain outside the window was quite fierce, and the bean-sized raindrops were dense and chaotic, like a thick bead curtain, which only covered everything in front of the eyes behind the rain curtain, and the eyes were only gray.Although he couldn't see anything, Yang Tan still looked out of the window, as if he could catch a glimpse of the scene from the sound of the thundering rain and the cold wind blowing against his face.

Seeing her staring out the window in a daze, Lu Lin hurriedly got up and closed the window more tightly.I wanted to take off my coat and put it on the window crack, looked at the riddled window, then at the thinly dressed Yang Tan, but put the coat on Yang Tan, saw her looking up, and smiled at her , Said: "If you catch a cold, you can't walk anymore."

Seeing her pinching the corners of her clothes, her red lips slightly parted, and her eyes flickering, Lu Lin waited deliberately, but he didn't want to hear a word "thank you" for a long time, but he looked at her expression, and he didn't seem to be displeased, so he touched her more and more. No brains.Lu Lin thought for a while and said, "My clothes are dirty, I should take them off. If you think the wind is too strong, why don't you sit inside? The couch is also very comfortable and not hard. It will smell earthy outside, The fragrance is the most fragrant after the rain. Isn’t it better to smell after the rain?”

Yang Tan didn't answer a word, instead he laughed out loud.Lu Lin felt even more inexplicable, but it was not easy to ask again.Just listen to Yang Tan said: "You and I travel together all the way, your clothes are dirty, but mine are clean? What's more, the situation is critical now, it's not like in the past, if I still care about these things, it's not worth your journey to protect me."

Lu Lin nodded yes, but was even more surprised: "If that's the case, then why aren't you happy?"

Yang Tan was also surprised: "When did I get upset?"

Lu Lin wanted to ask her why she stopped thanking her, but when she was about to leave her mouth, she felt stupid and it was not worth asking, so she just opened her mouth and said, "It's nothing, I may have misunderstood the meaning."

After letting it go and closing it, Yang Tan became interested, and asked: "Would you be wrong? What would you be wrong about? Could it be... I didn't say thank you just now, so you just pretended that I was unhappy and didn't want to thank you?"

Although Lu Lin didn't answer a word, his expression was quite uncomfortable. Yang Tan knew that he had guessed it, and found it even more funny: "You really think so? You and I have been together for some time, but you still think so... No wonder no wonder." After saying that, he actually laughed.It's not a faint smile like usual, nor a chuckle just now, but Yinling's smile also makes people feel comfortable after listening to it.

Lu Lin was secretly annoyed, but with her relaxed smile, most of the annoyance had gone away.Although Lu Lin guessed that she must be depressed due to the family changes, he was only guessing. It was only now that she knew that although she spoke and smiled freely, she never let go of her heart. Only this smile was genuinely relieved.Lu Lin said: "No wonder what? What do you think?" But it was the old look.

Yang Tan just smiled: "You and I have only known each other for a few days, and you care about me so much, which shows that you are a person who values ​​love and righteousness. No wonder you think so much about the kindness of the sixth prince." Lu Lin couldn't find any mistakes, so he assumed that what she was referring to just now was exactly what she was referring to, and explained: "General Yang is such a hero, everyone in the world respects and admires him, and if he can share Miss Yang's worries, he is serving General Yang. It's just that I have admiration for General Yang, and I'm entrusted by the Sixth Prince to do my best, it's really not a matter of love and righteousness."

Yang Tan raised her eyebrows: "Isn't half of it for me?"

As soon as she said this, even she was surprised.But now that he has spoken, he doesn't care about the surprise.There was no sign of abnormality on Yang Tan's face, and Lu Lin couldn't tell whether she was joking again, or if she was asking this question seriously, no matter what it was, it was already difficult for her to answer, because she never thought about it.

At some point, Lu Lin sat back on the couch.Yang Tan still looked at her with a smile, there was encouragement, expectation, and inspiration in this smile, but it was of no benefit to her at this time.Lu Lin felt that his head was in a daze, and his thoughts were mixed together. Although he wanted to answer well, he couldn't make sense of it.When he wanted to answer casually, he couldn't open his mouth.

Her heart was in turmoil, but Yang Tan was in a calm state of mind, but it was just hidden under a smile.She wanted to wait for Lu Lin to answer and change randomly, but unexpectedly Lu Lin couldn't answer, and she couldn't wait, the more she waited, the turmoil in her heart became deeper, like boiling water, turning the river and the sea, she didn't know what to worry about, what to wait for why.She suddenly said: "Your martial art was taught by the sixth prince? He is also proficient in martial arts?"

Lu Lin didn't expect her to change the subject suddenly, he was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "The sixth prince is busy with government affairs, how can he have time to teach me? It was the sixth prince who led me to worship as a teacher, and the master taught me martial arts."

Yang Tan said: "Then you just said that the sixth prince has the kindness of nurturing and nurturing for you. What do you mean? Just to invite you to worship as a teacher, I'm afraid it can't be called the kindness of nurturing and nurturing?"

Lu Lin replied: "Lu has no father and no mother. If he hadn't been taken in by the sixth prince, he might have starved to death early on the street, or would have become a beggar. Although Lu's martial arts were taught by his master, the foundation of life and the principles of life are not It was passed down by the Sixth Prince. Although the Sixth Prince is not Lu’s biological parents, Yu Lu’s kindness is far better than his biological parents.”

Yang Tan bowed his head and said nothing, suddenly asked: "Your honor's surname is Lu?"

Lu Lin was stunned, and said: "I don't know, I only heard from the sixth prince that he picked me up by the roadside."

"Then the name Lulin?"

"It's the woods beside the road."

Lu Lin only said it as usual, Yang Tan listened, but it was funny and sad at the same time: "A person wants to use his life's name, but he decided so hastily? My name is Yang Tan, because my father hopes for my life. Like red sandalwood, elegant and precious, and cherished by others. The sixth prince treats you so well, why doesn't he give you a good name?"

Lu Lindao: "It's just a name, it's just a title. Whatever Lu is called is still Lu. For example, Ms. Yang never called Lu by her name, but only called 'Nvxia'. Lu still knows that Ms. Yang is calling Lu. The address It doesn't matter what it is, as long as the caller and the called person know who they are calling, that is enough as a title."

Yang Tan's eyes moved slightly: "Then how do you like others to call you?"

"This..." Lu Lin thought for a long time before saying, "I never noticed it."

Yang Tan sighed: "'A tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it', there is nothing wrong with calling you Lu Lin... I will also call you 'Lu Lin' from now on."

Lu Lin nodded: "Miss Yang thinks it's convenient."

Yang Tan said again: "Don't just call me 'Miss Yang' or 'Miss Yang', just call me Yang Tan. I like this name very much."

Lu Lin saw that her words were sincere and did not seem to be playing, so he responded straightforwardly: "Okay."

Changing the title is like changing the identity. There is no more general daughter, no escort, only Yang Tan and Lu Lin.The two chatted casually again, both of them were indescribably at ease.When Lu Lin looked at Yang Tan, the more he looked at her, the more pleasing he was, and he put aside the previous "Miss Jiao" theory.She has grown up so big, she has never had a female companion of the same age, and now the two of them are about the same age, Yang Tan is only four months older than her.Yang Tan asked her to call her sister, how could Lu Lin call her?After she repeatedly refused, Yang Tan smiled again, and said: "If you don't call me, don't call me, sister and sister, it's too vulgar." Lu Lin knew that it was a joke, but he took it seriously, so he was very upset Ashamed, I only said there would be no next time.But Yang Tan explained again: "It's because I didn't speak clearly, so I can't blame you."

Yang Tan's eyes were full of tenderness, he looked at her and said with a smile: "It's good that you are like this, you don't need to change." Lu Lin's heart was warm, and she sighed again: "Everyone is a smart person, so it's boring." How do they know the benefits of stupid people?"

No matter how hard Lu Lin could tell the truth from the falsehood, he also knew it was saying that she was stupid, so naturally he had to argue with reason.It can be seen from Yang Tan's expression that he doesn't seem to be belittling her, but rather praises her.She just shook her head and said, "Although I'm not smart, I'm not stupid either. Among the brothers, even the master praised me for having the best understanding and the best bones. No matter how good a stupid person is, who wants to be a stupid person? If I If you can be smarter, you will definitely be able to be the right-hand man of the Sixth Prince, not a swordsman."

She hung her neck and waited for Yang Tan's reply, but Yang Tan smiled and didn't answer, instead he looked out the window and said, "The rain is about to stop."

Lu Lin stood up suddenly, the long sword still in his hand.She glanced at the rain curtain outside the window, and said seriously: "Leave as soon as the rain stops, the longer the delay, the more dangerous it is." There was no trace of tenderness in the conversation.

Yang Tan was not shy either, and replied, "Okay."

Neither of them spoke out to invite each other, but the two had developed a different kind of tacit understanding: when on the road, they were business-like, and there was a difference between master and servant;Although there is no third person present, and there is no need to hide anyone, there must be a clear distinction.Although Lu Lin didn't know Yang Tan's intentions, he didn't want to ask.For her, it should be so.Escorting Yang Tan is an order from the Sixth Prince. Since it is a duty, one should not have a personal relationship with Yang Tan. It is a taboo to be unclear about public affairs.Therefore, even though she had made Yang Tan a sister with a different surname in private, she was still polite and courteous in official affairs, and never exceeded the rules.

Although polite, but never neglected.Seeing that Yang Tan was inconvenient to travel, and there were chasing soldiers and tigers watching behind him, before he left the mountains, Lu Lin took a thousand-mile horse to the market.Because Yang Tan was not good at riding and shooting, the two rode together, with Yang Tan in front and Lu Lin behind.Since Lu Lin wanted to hold the reins, he had to pass Yang Tan's waist with both hands.As soon as Lu Lin tightened the reins, his arms tightened, and his slender waist naturally stuck to his forearms.Miss Qianjin grasped it gracefully, and she was incomparable to a rough martial artist.In summer, the clothes are thin, although there is a layer, the warmth is not diminished, and the exquisiteness is still there, which makes people daydream even more.The road surface was red and hot, and the sweat on his forehead was as big as beans. He only thought it was caused by the sun's poison and the heat. He opened his mouth and asked Yang Tan, whether he was thirsty or not, and whether he was hot or not?

Yang Tan smiled: "Lao Xia is worried, but I'm a little tired, I wonder if I can use the body of the woman to lean on?"

Lu Lin hurriedly replied: "Anything you want." He straightened his chest and back straight.Yang Tan leaned back slowly, leaning against her arms, leaning his head on her shoulder.Although the place touched was as warm and cool as water, Lu Lin felt that the fire was scorching like tongues of fire, which only made her face hotter and her mouth dry, and she dared not move rashly.Thinking that her body was too stiff and uncomfortable, Yang Tan twisted her body and rubbed against her.Lu Lin was afraid that she would fall off the horse, so he quickly put his hand on her waist.Yang Tan didn't move anymore, opened his eyes and said with a smile: "It's comfortable like this." Lu Lin didn't know how to respond for a while, but he couldn't see Xu for a while, Yang Tan closed his eyes again, his breath was steady, and he seemed to be asleep.Lu Lin held the hot potato in his hand, but he had nowhere to throw it, so he had to bite the bullet and hold it in his hand.When it was late, the two got off their horses to rest, Yang Tan called her: "Your hand..." Halfway through speaking, he laughed again.Only then did Lu Lin realize that the hand was still on Yang Tan's waist, and he didn't move at all. He quickly withdrew his hand and looked away, his face flushed again.Seeing her like this, Yang Tan smiled and said, "Where did you come from being so shy? Aren't you and I both girls? I have one, but what don't you have? Sure enough, I'm still a little girl."

Lu Lin blushed, and argued: "I have never been so close to a woman like you in the past... You are Miss Qianjin, different from others, I am naturally, naturally a little..." When I looked up, I saw Yang Tan His expression darkened, and he hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that!"

Yang Tan was teased by her and smiled again: "What do you mean?"

"That's... that's what you think!"

Yang Tan turned his head to look at her with interest: "What do I mean? Why don't I know?"

Lu Lin was running around in a hurry, but the more anxious he became, the more he couldn't figure out the reason, and he couldn't speak: "This, that... It's not that I don't treat you as my own... I mean, I'm rough-skinned and thick-skinned. Thin skin and tender meat... Anyway, there is no other meaning!"

She usually speaks quickly, rides swiftly, strikes a sword swiftly, moves like the wind, and people are like the wind, but when she becomes anxious, she is like a strong wind, blowing the grass under her feet.Yang Tan looked at her with a smile, and felt that this person and this scene were very funny, but it was so funny that she couldn't hold any worries in her heart.She tilted her head and smiled, "You don't have to. I already knew how you treated me. I can tell whether you are sincere or not. "

Lu Lin stopped suddenly, with a happy face: "Really?"

Yang Tan nodded and smiled: "Naturally."

Lu Lin became happy, and hesitated again: "Then why were you unhappy just now?"

Yang Tan laughed and said, "When did I get upset?"

Lu Lin argued: "You look like you are just unhappy, isn't it just unhappy?"

Yang Tan sighed: "Unhappiness is not necessarily unhappiness. There are thousands of kinds of happiness, and there are thousands of kinds of unhappiness. Unhappiness is dissatisfaction but unwilling to speak out, brooding. I am not dissatisfied with you, let alone It's just a matter of my own heart just now, and it has nothing to do with you."

Lu Lin didn't believe it, and asked, "What's on your mind?"

Yang Tanliu frowned slightly, as if unwilling to talk deeply.Lu Lin didn't even have this bit of vision, so he turned and went to the depths of the woods: "I'm going to hunt some rabbits, and you gather some firewood."

Yang Tan responded lightly.Under the warm yellow sunset, the road and forest gradually drifted away, and the slender figure almost disappeared into the shadows of the mountains and forests.Yang Tan stood up suddenly and shouted: "Lu Lin—"

Lu Lin was startled, and turned around, his expression full of confusion.

Yang Tan put his hands behind his back and smiled: "I'll tell you. It's just a few more days."

Although Lu Lin didn't understand why he had to wait, Yang Tan always had a reason for saying this.The Sixth Prince also often said "the time has not come", and it is appropriate to apply these words to Yang Tan now.For the next few days, everything was normal.If Yang Tan didn't mention it, Lu Lin didn't ask either.She has always been calm and patient.

On the fifth day, it was close to Sichuan and Shu.At night, Yang Tan was itchy and couldn't sleep well, so Lu Lin took her to the mountain stream to bathe, and lit a torch to drive away the leeches.Things are most likely to happen at night, Yang Tan didn't dare to stay too long, wrapped up his clothes after a hasty wash, and climbed ashore wet.While poking the fire, Lu Lin felt pity: Although it was midsummer, Yang Tan's lips were pale, his eyes were dark, his dirty clothes were half-wet, and his hair was messy. The daughter of the gatekeeper?Thinking of this journey, Yang Tan followed him to eat and sleep in the open, with the ground as his mat and the sky as his cover, without a good meal or a good night's sleep, his heart became more and more sour.Lu Lin sighed and comforted: "It will only take two or three days at most. Once you enter Sichuan, you won't have to suffer anymore."

Reflecting the light of the fire, Yang Tan's face turned even paler: "There are still two or three days?"

Lu Lin saw that her complexion was not good, so he hurriedly said: "If you hurry up on the road, it will be done in a day or two."

Yang Tan lowered his head and said nothing more.She didn't speak, and Lu Lin had nothing to say, only concentrating on poking the fire.After the firewood is stripped, there is a soft sound from time to time, making the night more silent.Lu Lin lost his mind for a moment, remembering all the things on the road, and smiled lightly.Hearing a sneer suddenly, Lu Lin was startled, drew his sword and stood up, glaring, "Who?"

The man didn't answer, but laughed even louder.It was only at this time that Lu Lin heard clearly that it was not a sneer, but a miserable smile, which made one's scalp tingle.

It wasn't until the laughter was enough that the owner of the laughter said, "I don't want to go to Sichuan."

Lu Lin was stunned.She really didn't expect that the laughter came from Yang Tan, let alone that she would say such a thing.Yang Tan's eyes were surprisingly bright at night, like two balls of fire, burning so much that Lu Lin couldn't sit still.She asked: "Why? Sichuan and Shu are the territory of the sixth prince, and only there is safety."

Yang Tan stared at her, and curled his lips when he heard the words: "The sixth prince's site? Safe?"

She didn't show any extra expressions, but her tone was clearly mocking.Lu Lin seemed to have been slapped, and argued loudly: "Of course the Sixth Prince's territory is safe. Now only the Sixth Prince can protect you."

Yang Tan turned to look at her.In the past, when she turned her head so far, she was gentle and intimate, but today she is indifferent.Yang Tan looked at Lu Lin, blinked, and smiled gently: "That's really thanks to the sixth prince."

She looked as usual, but Lu Lin was furious: "What do you mean!"

Yang Tan laughed and said, "I don't mean anything."

"You don't mean anything, why do you want to slander the Sixth Prince so eccentrically!"

Yang Tan was surprised, looked at her, and said with a smile, "When did I slander you?"

"You, you..." Lu Lin was so angry that he couldn't speak, "What dissatisfaction do you have with the sixth prince! If you have something to worry about, just say it!"

Yang Tan said: "That's right, I'm not only dissatisfied with him, but also bitter."

She was so straightforward that Lu Lin didn't know what to say.She looked at Yang Tan in silence for a while, then bent over and sat back.Seeing that she was no longer excited, Yang Tan smiled: "Why are you not in a hurry?"

Lu Lin frowned, but his tone was calm: "The Sixth Prince has his reasons, and you have yours. I believe in the Sixth Prince, and I also believe in you."

Yang Tan stared at her fixedly, and didn't speak for a while.It wasn't until Lu Lin raised her eyebrows in doubt that she smiled at Lu Lin Nuan Nuan and said softly, "I promised to tell you what's on my mind."

"Ah."

"Today I will tell you."

"it is good."

"My father loved me very much. As long as I wanted anything from a young age, he didn't lack for me. Except for not allowing me to practice martial arts, he never asked me for anything, and everything was according to my heart. I don't know needlework, I don't know Female precepts and female training, Miss Beppu laughed at me for being incompetent, but my father hugged me and laughed. He said that his daughter, how can it be compared with such a chick, is what I can do. I believe him and know that I am better than others. Those people are more fortunate, they are birds in a cage, but I can see the sky. I am waiting for the day when I take off, and I am waiting for the day when I can travel across the world and see the whole world."

Yang Tan's eyes were full of longing, but they returned to darkness in just a moment.Lu Lin reassured: "Life is still very long. When the situation is stable, where can't you go? If you want to see the sea, you can look at the sea, if you want to see the mountains, you can look at the mountains, if you want to be happy, then you can be happy. At that time... I can also accompany you .”

But Yang Tan didn't hear it, and just followed the previous words and said in a low voice: "Later, I found out that my father lied to me. I am also a bird in a cage, but this cage is bigger, and I can't fly to the end even if I spend my whole life. But he You didn't lie to me, he is also a bird in a cage, and he didn't fly to the end. If you don't fly to the end, you won't be able to find the cage. If you fly to the end, there will be no way to survive. My father has already flown to the end, and I will be next."

Lu Lin frowned: "What kind of cage is not a cage? Don't think about it. General Yang's death was caused by a sycophant. Now there are six princes protecting you, and I will protect you. No villain can harm you. You can rest assured." Live well, don't worry about the cage, when things are over, I will accompany you no matter how high or far you want to fly, and no one can hurt you."

Yang Tan smiled and shook his head.

Lu Lin frowned: "You don't believe me? I, Lu Lin, always do what I say and never break my word."

Yang Tan raised his head and smiled, "You misunderstood. It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I don't believe in myself."

Lu Lin folded his arms and raised his eyebrows: "What does this mean?"

"I don't believe in myself. If I can pretend that the cage is not there, I can learn from that moth. I know that I am destined to die, but I have to move forward fearlessly."

"Lu Lin, I'm afraid."

Yang Tan looked at Lu Lin, his already pale face turned sad, like a camellia after rain, more touching than a sunny day.Lu Lin had no intention of appreciating it, her heart was already clenched, Yang Tan only frowned, and the pain made her speechless.

Yang Tan's brows couldn't be smoothed out.She said, "Lu Lin, I'm afraid of death, and I'm also afraid...of being in a cage for the rest of my life."

Lu Lin was in so much pain that he had no time to care.She didn't know what kind of cage it was, and she couldn't separate her mind to think about what kind of cage it was. She only knew that Yang Tan was in pain, and she was in pain too, the pain was heart-piercing.

Enduring the pain, she gritted her teeth and said, "Then go out."

"What?" Yang Tan was surprised.

Her brow relaxed a little.Lu Lin's pain eased slightly, he breathed a sigh of relief, and repeated unconsciously: "Then get out of the cage."

Yang Tan smiled wryly: "I can't get out. Not only me, you can't get out either."

"Then I'll take you out!" Lu Lin said loudly, "I'll take you out!" She didn't know where her courage came from, but she became more and more determined: "As long as you have a sword in hand, ordinary people can't stop me."

Yang Tan looked at her blankly, his eyes rippling like water, and suddenly he smiled again: "If it's the Sixth Prince who stands in your way?"

"What?" Lu Lin was puzzled.

Yang Tan smiled slightly, but he spoke more firmly: "I am in the game, and I am destined to be just a pawn in the hands of a high-ranking person. Now the one holding the pawn is the Sixth Prince whom you are willing to use as your sword. It is not me, but Fear of my father is just his pawn. No matter who dies, this game of chess will not end. What do you want?"

Lu Lin was shocked, and opened his mouth to refute: "The Sixth Prince wants to protect you, how could he use you as a pawn! General Yang was also killed by a traitor, what has he to do with the Sixth Prince!"

Yang Tan shook his head and said with a smile: "What's the difference between being killed by him and not being killed by him? It's just an excuse, and he will be the winner after all. If the sixth prince hadn't confronted the traitor you called tit for tat, how could my father be reduced to a bargaining chip? Killed by a traitor? On the day my father was murdered, it was he who asked me to pay a visit at home, so I was able to escape. If he hadn't known about the rumors, how could it be such a coincidence? It's no different from a murderer if you don't save yourself The purpose of saving my life is to use the name of the daughter of my unjust minister and a righteous man to win over a loyal man for his use, in the name of doing justice for the heavens. You have followed him for many years, don’t you know his methods? Killing people with a knife , Fisherman's profit is really a trivial skill, not worth mentioning, there are other means, since you often praise him for his superior strategy, how can you be completely unaware of it?"

Lu Lin wanted to refute, but Yang Tanyue said that her heart became more confused and her hands and feet became colder.All kinds of past events reappear in the mind, and each scene is so meaningful that it makes people dare not think about it.She calmed down and was about to sort out her thoughts, but she heard Yang Tan say: "You said that the sixth prince picked you up by the roadside forest. It just so happens that you have a very good bone. An orphan with no father taught him to pick it up, and it just so happens that you are all good materials for martial arts. It just so happens, why are there so many coincidences? Have you never thought that your background may have something else to say?"

Lu Lin took a step back suddenly, and retorted loudly: "It's absolutely impossible!"

Yang Tan sneered, and was about to press again, but saw Lu Lin's lips were pale and his expression was in a trance. Although he still had a long sword in his hand, his momentum seemed unabated, but he was like the end of a crossbow. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and finally couldn't bear it: "That's all... It's just my random guessing, it's not based on anything, it's nothing." She gathered her clothes, got up and went to the haystack, she couldn't walk two steps, but she stopped and didn't look back, Only softly said: "It's a good thing not to feel that you are in a cage, Lu Lin. You and I each have our own cages. It is enough to fly together for a while and sing for a while. Ask for other things..." She smiled lightly : "That's silly."

Lu Lin stood leaning on his sword, lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "It's better to be stupid, you said so."

Yang Tan couldn't help laughing, but smiled softly: "Yes. Although it is a stupid thing, I am very happy to hear it. You make me happy, but I make you sad. I am sorry for you."

Lu Lin opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he had nothing to say.What can she say?Say you're not sad?That's a complete lie.She knows that she doesn't want Yang Tan to be sad, but Yang Tan is smiling, but she is clearly sad; she knows that she doesn't want to doubt the sixth prince, but Yang Tan's words are too true, as long as she is not a fool and a coward, she will definitely not No longer deceiving herself; she knows that she is extremely uncomfortable, although she doesn't know what a cage is or is not a cage, but the depression that wants to shout but has nowhere to shout, wants to hit but has no one to hit is all gathered in her chest, swelling her whole body to burst open.She was sad, so sad that she wanted to stab herself through with a sword, and vent all her anger, so that she could feel more comfortable.

In the end, she just frowned, squatted on the ground, and said sullenly, "Oh."

There was another sigh from Yang Tan's side, and it disappeared like smoke.After hearing no answer for a long time, Lu Lin raised his head, and Yang Tan's figure also disappeared with the wind.That night, Lu Lin was only by the fire, and when he was tired from squatting, he sat on the ground with his legs spread apart.If there is no firewood, add more firewood, and if there is no fire, start a fire.The Xueliang sword blade was dyed black, but she didn't care about it, and continued to poke the fire stubbornly and earnestly.She didn't want to go to sleep, it seemed that as long as she was awake and the fire was still burning, there would be no nightmares, let alone troubles.

The firelight illuminated Lu Lin's face.She remembered that when she was a child, she was afraid of the dark, and her seniors and brothers laughed at her for being a delicate girl. It was the sixth prince who lit a lamp for her and told her that as long as the lamp was on, Xie Song would not dare to approach her.Since then, she has been accompanied by a lamp every night, and she has a good night's sleep.She usually doesn't tell anyone about this, just because she is shy. She told Yang Tan a few days ago, but she didn't want to but listened to Yang Tan. She was also afraid of the dark when she was young.If Lu Lin met her confidant, she hurriedly asked her whether to light the lamp or not, but Yang Tan replied that her father taught her that she should not be afraid of the shadow when she is upright, so why worry about evil when she has a clear heart?Lu Lin sighed with emotion, as expected of General Yang, what a hero.

Thinking so wildly, the sky also dawned.Lu Lin hadn't slept all night, so his spirit was naturally bad. Yang Tan was preoccupied and rarely spoke.The two of them were speechless all the way, neither knowing how to speak nor willing to speak.

Time always passes more slowly when there is silence.Although there were only two or three days left for the journey, it seemed like half a month.Lu Lin wanted to look at Yang Tan more, but he didn't dare to.The same is true of Yang Tan.Only the slender waist is still brushing against Lu Lin's forearm from time to time, but it can no longer stir up the ripples of the past.

Yang Tan still often leans against Lu Lin's arms, most of the day like this.It's obviously a very intimate behavior, but it's normal to do it now.Lu Lin lost those hot faces and dryness, and even the joy in his heart returned to the still water, without waves.She held Yang Tan in one hand, and the path in front of her eyes stretched to the sky, as if the two of them would ride together without end.

There are endless roads, and there are endless people.After stopping and stopping until the fifth day, I finally arrived outside the city of Shuzhou.

The terrain in Shuzhou is difficult, and the circulation of materials is not smooth. In the past, there were often trucks and horse teams, and there were constant traffic.Lu Lin and Yang Tan were sandwiched between the chariots and horses, walking slowly with their reins relaxed.

Yang Tan knew that it would be difficult to see each other after this farewell, and he wanted to ask a few more words, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only sigh at the end, and groped aside to hold Lu Lin's hand.She said softly, "Thank you."

Lu Lin's heart was already calm, but now there would be turmoil again. He frowned and said, "I can't help you with anything... there is nothing to be thankful for."

Yang Tan smiled: "It's not your duty to help me, and I don't want you to help, so why bother about this."

Yang Tan said again: "If you have time to come to Sichuan in the future, you must come to me."

Lu Lin replied: "Naturally." After a pause, he added: "I will definitely come."

The city gate was already in front of him, Lu Lin wanted to go straight to the other garden of the sixth prince, but Yang Tan said he wanted to see the city wall.The two dismounted one after another, Yang Tan took his time and walked towards the city wall.She opened her hand, her white fingers caressing the blue and black bricks inch by inch, caressing them, her expression and behavior carried a deep nostalgia that Lu Lin didn't understand.

Yang Tan suddenly said: "My mother is from Sichuan and Shu. After marrying my father, she went north and left her hometown and never came back. When she was young, she often talked about anecdotes about Sichuan and Shu, saying that when I grow up and the truce ends, I will fight with you. My father took me back to my hometown to worship my ancestors. I have dreamed about the scene when I came here countless times, but none of them was the same as today." She pressed her cheek against the wall and smiled like a child: "Mother lied to me, The wall isn't hot at all, it's still wet."

Lu Lin looked at her and never said a word.

Yang Tan leaned on the wall and straightened up, patted lightly, making several muffled sounds.She looked up at the top of the city wall and sighed, "It's really high." She turned to Lu Lin and said, "Okay, let's go."

Lu Lin lowered his eyes and remained silent.When Yang Tan got off the horse and was perplexed and urged, Fang raised his head and said, "Let's go."

"what?"

"It doesn't matter where you go." Lu Lin said to himself, "Let's go. I'll take you away." After she finished speaking, she stared at Yang Tan with burning eyes, asking her for an answer.

Yang Tan looked at Lu Lin, without a trace of a smile on his face, his expression could even be called indifferent, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

She said lightly: "It's enough to say something stupid once, Lu Lin."

The light in Lu Lin's eyes suddenly went out.She lowered her head again, helped Yang Tan onto the horse in silence, and walked to the other garden in silence.

After giving his name and surname, the servants of Bieyuan rushed forward and welcomed Yang Tan in.The servant approached courteously and invited Lu Lin to come in to have a rest. She reasoned that she had to go to the Sixth Prince's business as soon as possible so that there would be no delay, but her feet did not move at all.She stood outside the door for a long time, watching the slender figure disappear into a lonely black shadow, which was locked behind by the heavy wooden door.In the end, there was nothing left except for the red-red wooden door and the bright brass nails, but she still stood there watching.

On the way back, Lu Lin was extremely tired and unable to drive the horse, so he let the horse walk forward.The land in Sichuan and Shu is very humid. Although there is a scorching sun on the top, there is no discomfort at all, and it has the effect of dispelling dampness and detoxification.Lu Lin was warm all over, and he was also lazy and drowsy.

Suddenly there was laughter in the distance accompanied by the sound of bells, the laughter was like silver bells, extremely sweet.Lu Lin was awakened by the laughter, and looked up, only to see a girl in red, holding a whip and riding a horse.Her long hair is tied behind her head with red silk, fluttering in the wind, with bells hanging around her horse's neck, richly dressed, smartly dressed, heroic, chatting and laughing constantly with her female companions, walking under the scorching sun, her skin is like snow, her hair is like splashed ink, The clothes are like peonies, which is a good scene.

Lu Lin reined in his horse and avoided the side of the road, watching the group pass by.

While the sand was flying, Lu Lin squinted his eyes and looked at the girl in red, thinking in his heart that if Yang Tan was learning martial arts, it must be so.

The author has something to say: This article was conceived very quickly, but it took a month intermittently to finish it. Except for some objective reasons, the main reason is that I am too dove. Documents are too lazy to open.In the end, I was stuck before the deadline and finished writing. I really thank the host for being willing to wait for us.

When I was halfway through writing it for a friend, she said that it could actually be called "Bird in a Cage". I said that the concept of "Bird in a Cage" does run through the whole thing, but what this article wants to express is more about the relationship between these two people.The encounter of two people may not change their lives, but like a rain in June, the two were trapped in it at that moment, and everything in that rain was real.No matter what happens in the future, there will always be such a rain-soaked love in the hearts of these two people.
