Yu Wu

He turned his head as if in a dream, and saw a familiar figure.

Under the tung blossoms of Feiyao Terrace, in the moonlight.I was watching him quietly.

That person wasn't Gu Mang—of course it couldn't be Gu Mang, and Mo Xi, who came back to his senses, almost sneered in his heart, what was he thinking.

The person who spoke was a man with gentle eyebrows. He was sitting in a wooden wheelchair, wearing plain cold clothes, and covering his disabled legs and feet with a thin taupe-colored blanket.

Mo Xi was slightly surprised: "Elder Qing Xu?"

Elder Qingxu, Jiang Yexue.He is Yue Chenqing's elder brother.

It's different from the carefree and silly boy Yue Chenqing.Jiang Yexue's life was very miserable.His mother left early, and later he was expelled from the Yue family because he insisted on marrying the criminal minister's daughter.

At that time, neither he nor the girl had any money, and their marriage was very simple, and due to the pressure of the Yue family, only a few people insisted on it - including Mo Xi and Gu Mang.

Mo Xi gave them a small courtyard.Gu Mang stared at the title deed, dumbfounded, and then told Jiang Yexue, brother, I'm poor, and I can't afford this.Everyone laughed, and Gu Mang puffed his cheeks amidst the laughter, and blew a song "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" for them with the suona.

But the good times didn't last long, Jiang Yexue joined the army with his wife, the war was ruthless, first took away his first wife, and later took away his legs.

Mo Xi didn't know how this man survived.Fortunately, Jiang Yexue, who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, finally managed to cheer up and found a position as an elder in the Cultivation Academy, teaching the way of refining weapons.But this action actually angered his biological father, the Yue family is the number one craftsman in Chonghua, Yue Juntian ordered the Cultivation Academy to remove Jiang Yexue from his teaching position——

"This rebellious son who was kicked out of the Yue family doesn't have our surname anymore, what face does he have to rely on the Yue family's ability to make a living!"

The palace lord couldn't hold back Yue Juntian, so he could only politely resign Jiang Yexue.

Mo Xi saw it at the time and decided to find him a place in his military aircraft department.Unexpectedly, before he could open his mouth, the next day the master of the Cultivation Academy begged his grandpa to tell his grandma to invite Jiang Yexue back. This time, it was useless for the Yue family to yell, the palace master only said, "Should a The old man reminded me by ear."

As for the identity of the old man who did not come out, it is still a mystery in Chonghua.

Jiang Yexue knew that she hated seeing each other with the Yue family, and this kind of big banquet would never happen in the past.That's why Mo Xi was so surprised to see him.

"How did you come?"

"I..." Jiang Yexue said, "I'll come and see Chen Qing."

"..."

When Jiang Yexue left, Yue Chenqing was still young, so she doesn't remember many things so clearly now, but as an older brother, she still can't let go of her younger brother.

Although Yue Chenqing didn't recognize him, to be honest, she didn't make things difficult for him like the rest of the Yue family.

"I also want to come to see you." Jiang Yexue paused and smiled, "I can't see you from the left and right. I think it's because it's too noisy inside and you can't bear it. So I came to look for you on the stage, and I was indeed rejected." I guessed right, you are really blowing air here."

"If you want to find me, just send someone a message, why bother to come out by yourself. The injury on your leg doesn't show the cold, I'll take you back."

"It's okay, it hasn't hurt for a long time." Jiang Yexue said, "I came here to thank you. Chen Qing is not sensible, thanks to you for taking care of him these two years."

Mo Xi was silent for a while, then said: "Your brother is young, it's not a bad thing to be playful. What's more, he has grown a lot after being away for two years."

Jiang Yexue smiled softly: "Really? Didn't he make trouble for you?"

"...It's just a little bit, but it still helps a lot."

Jiang Yexue sighed and nodded: "Okay, that's good."

After a moment of silence, the tassels on the Feiyao Terrace slowly fluttered in the breeze.

Jiang Yexue suddenly said: "Mr. Xihe, you have been away from the country for a long time, and you must not be very clear about many things that happened in the imperial capital."

He's always smart, transparent, and empathetic.

"The hall is too noisy, and I don't want to go back for a while. If Mr. Xihe wants to know anything, just ask me."

"...I don't have anything in particular I want to know." Mo Xi turned his head and looked at the imperial capital, where thousands of households have fallen into the stars, "I don't have any relatives in the city."

Jiang Yexue knew that he was awkward, looked at him, and was not in a hurry, just nodded.

After a while, Mo Xi coughed lightly, and really started to ask: "Have you been okay all these years?"

Jiang Yexue smiled and said, "Very good."

"Where is your majesty?"

"Everything is fine with him."

"Princess Mengze?"

"Wan An."

Mo Xi: "...That's good."

Jiang Yexue's eyes had some indeterminate colors: "Is there anything else you want to know?"

"Gone."

But after a while, Mo Xi drank the last bit of residual wine in the cup, looked at the bright night, and finally couldn't help asking.

"Where's Gu Mang?...how is he?"

Jiang Yexue looked at him as if sighing, "Oh, you made so many detours, you finally mentioned him".Said: "Naturally, life is not good."

"..." Mo Xi was silent for a while, then nodded his head slightly, his throat felt a little dry, "I think so too."

"If you want, go and see him. After living in that bullying place for so long, he...has changed a lot."

Mo Xi was stunned for a moment, unable to react for a moment, he frowned and asked, "Where is it?"

Jiang Yexue didn't expect him to have such a reaction, opened his eyes slightly, and was also stunned: "You don't know?"

"What do I know?"

Jiang Yexue: "..."

Neither of them spoke again.There was a sudden burst of lively laughter in the main hall, and drunken men and women were projected between the window grilles, and the figures overlapped and messed up.

Mo Xi came to his senses suddenly, and opened his eyes wide: "He couldn't have been sent—"

"...He has been in Luomei Bieyuan for two years..." Jiang Yexue never thought that such an important matter would not be revealed by Yue Chenqing.It turned out that he told Mo Xi himself, so he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

Mo Xi's face turned blue instantly.

Luomei Bieyuan...

what is that placeBrothel Fengyuechang!

Over a period of time, the human bones and blood sold can be eaten up.Warm people will change beyond recognition when they go in, and those with strong sex will be destroyed when they go in.

They sent him there?

They actually put him... put him...

Mo Xi's Adam's apple twitched. The first time, he didn't say a word, but the second time he said with difficulty: "...Wang Shu Jun arranged?"

Jiang Yexue paused, sighed and nodded: "You know, Mr. Wang Shu hates him."

Mo Xi fell silent, turned his head away suddenly, looked at the vast night in front of him, and said nothing again.

-

Since Gu Mang was escorted back to Chonghua two years ago, he had envisioned a lot of what would happen to Gu Mang.

At that time, he didn't know what the punishment awaiting Gu Mang was. He thought that if Gu Mang was locked in the sky prison, he might go over and take a look, and then say a few words sarcastically.If Gu Mang became a useless person, he would not sympathize with him, and maybe even trip him up a bit.

Even if there was something soft between them, after so many years, the hatred has accumulated too deep, and they can no longer reconcile.

The only time Mo Xi ever thought about drinking a jug of wine with him calmly was in the cemetery, Gu Mang was lying inside, he was standing outside, and he might still talk to him like before, in Qingshi A bouquet of red peony flowers transformed from spiritual power was placed in front of the tombstone.

At least that was the fulfillment of their final parting without quarreling.

But from a long time ago, Gu Mang was good at bringing all kinds of surprises to Mo Xi.Mo Xi never thought that even this time it would be the same——

Luomei Bieyuan.

Mo Xi was tormenting these four words in his heart, he thought of these four words over and over again, trying to get a little bit of comfort out of it.

But in the end, he found that he was just doing a futile act, and he didn't get any pleasure from it. On the contrary, he felt disgusted and angry.

He didn't know where his nausea and anger came from. Isn't this something that should please everyone?

"..." Mo Xi propped his elbows on the railing, he wanted to bend his fingers, but they were extremely numb.He turned his head to look at Jiang Yexue's facial features, but felt indescribably blurred.

There were dizziness in front of my eyes, and cramps in my stomach.

Gu Mang was sent to Luomei Bieyuan.

It has been two years.

Mo Xi felt that he should laugh wantonly at this moment, this is the right way, and it is in line with the bloody hatred between the two of them in people's eyes, so he really twisted his lips and teeth to try to pry out some comfort.

But in the end, there was only a sneer, thinly falling from between Sensenbei's teeth.

It seemed that the handsome face under the sun when we first met flashed before my eyes again, with black eyes smiling at him: "Hi, Junior Brother Mo."

It seemed that Gu Mang's brilliant appearance after joining the army flashed again, he was lively among a group of friends, he turned his head and blinked at Mo Xi, the tails of his eyes were long and slightly raised, and then he opened a gentle arc and smiled sincerely.

He also remembered the words Gu Mang said after he became the leader——

There is a grinning and glib tone: "Come on, I am currently serving in the army and voting for the king, and I will be promoted in the coming year to make my fortune."

There was an angry cry from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood: "Come on, let's go, all those who are not completely dead, cheer up for me! I will take you home!"

And persistently knelt in front of the Golden Temple to ask the king not to bury his soldiers hastily: "I want to ask the pharmacists to identify those corpses... Please, this is not a useless effort, every soldier's tombstone should be First and last name, Your Majesty, I don’t want any brothers who won’t be able to return home in the end.”

"They recognize me as the coach. Whether it's a human or a ghost, I will bring them back. I promised."

"What they want is not Ai Rong, they just want a name that should have been there."

And at the end, the unbearable howl of tears broke out in front of the palace——

"Slaves deserve to die? Shouldn't slaves be buried?!"

"They both bleed and died! They have no father or mother, and they don't have a name in the end. Why are the members of the Yue family, the Mo family, and the Murong family dead heroes? When my brothers die, there is only one hole to fill. Buried?! Why!!”

That was the first time Gu Mang cried in front of the hall.

He didn't cry on his knees, he curled up, crouched, and squatted to cry.

Just after the war, the blood on his body has not been washed, and his face is full of smoky marks, mottled by tears.

The God of War, who always represented hope on the battlefield, was beaten back to his humble original form in the Golden Palace, like a nameless corpse.

The court was filled with dignified clothes, and many people looked at this poor general with disgust. His clothes were ragged and filthy.

He choked up and howled like a dying beast.

"I said I would bring them back..."

"Please do me a favor, let me keep my promise..."

But it's probably useless to know.

In the end he stopped begging and stopped crying.

Just repeating, his eyes almost slack, as if he was whispering to the wandering soul: "I'm sorry, it's my fault, I don't deserve to be your coach."

"I'm just a slave too..."

When these sentences fell back into memory bit by bit, Mo Xi only felt a splitting headache.He couldn't help but increase his forehead with his hand, and covered his face under the shadow of his hand, which was icy cold.

The heart is clammy.

Jiang Yexue said: "Mr. Xihe... are you alright?"

No one answered, and after a long time, a voice with no emotion could be heard, cruising out of the shadows calmly: "Okay. Why is it not good."

Jiang Yexue looked at him and sighed: "You and I have known each other for so many years, why bother to stand up in front of me."

Mo Xi: "..."

The copper bells on the eaves are tinkling, and the slender bright yellow tassels are dancing in the wind.

"You and Gu Mang's names have always been mentioned together in the past. They practiced spells together in the Cultivation Academy, went to the battlefield together, and were sealed together later." Jiang Yexue said, "Now, you He is still high above, but he has already fallen into the dust. After so many years of being on par with each other, people say that he is the best of both worlds, but now you are the only one left. I don’t think you will be happy.”

He paused, then turned to look at Mo Xi.

"Besides, he was once your deepest friend."

Mo Xi hung down his thick long eyelashes, and replied after a while: "...I was blind when I was young."

"But after he betrayed the country, you still believe in him for a reason. You have believed in him for a long time."

"I'm pretty blind." Mo Xi said, looking at the cup in his hand, there was still a smear of wine in it, glowing with the color of the sun, he no longer wanted to continue this conversation.

"The wind is blowing. Elder Qingxu, let's go back to the main hall."

A few days after learning of Gu Mang's whereabouts, Mo Xi has been very irritable.

He originally wanted to restrain this unnecessary emotion, but as time went by, his irritability continued unabated.

Mo Xi knew that he had a heart disease.

Only Luomei Bieyuan has that potion of heart medicine.

Finally, one night, when it was dark, a carriage with heavy night veils slowly drove towards the north of the imperial capital.

Mo Xi sat in the chariot with his eyes closed, even though he was the only one inside under the curtains, he still kept his back straight, his handsome face was so handsome that it was almost extravagant without any expression, it was so stern and daunting .

"Master, the place is here."

Mo Xi didn't get out of the carriage directly, but raised the curtain and glanced out from the shadows.

It was the busiest time for the night market at this time, and two rows of extravagant Nine-Nine-Hanmei lanterns and candles were ignited with spiritual power outside the gate across the street, reflecting the bright red plaque hanging high——

Luomei Bieyuan.

"The dawn wind is frosty and clearer than snow, and once it falls into the dust and mud."

It is different from the usual cosmetic shops, a large part of them are prisoners of war obtained by the Chonghua Kingdom, their spiritual cores have been abolished, and they have become prisoners and molesties since then.

"Master, do you want to go in?"

Mo Xi glanced over and saw several acquaintances, and they were all the kind of dandies he usually disliked, so he frowned and said, "Go through the back door."

The carriages and horses stopped at the back gate of Luomei Bieyuan.

"You go back, you don't need to guard here."

After giving instructions to the coachman at the mansion, he stood on the spot and looked at the terrain several times, then tiptoed, skimmed the corner of the eaves, and sneaked into the night without a sound.

Before coming here, he had seen the filing drawings of Luomei Bieyuan, so it was not difficult to find the residences of the girls. Soon, he came to the flower pavilion in the side courtyard.He put on his cloak, entered through the main entrance of the flower pavilion like a normal guest, and walked past the rows of rooms with closed vermilion lacquered doors.

"Saintess Sha Xuerou who attends the fire of all ages"

"Qin Feng, maidservant of Wanku Fire"

"Tang Zhen, Lieutenant General of the Left Army of the Liao Kingdom"

"Blood Rain Left Army female officer Lin Huarong"

There is such a small wooden sign hanging by each door, on which are written the former states, official positions, and names of these people in detail. The guests find the most suitable catharsis object.

If there are guests looking for pleasure inside, the name on the sign is red, and if there are no guests inside, the words on the sign are black.

In Luomei Bieyuan, the nobles are the sky, as long as they are happy, they can do anything.

The smiles, the flattery, the flesh of those men and women.Even the lives of each of them are at your discretion.

Mo Xi glanced at it, and the hem of his clothes fluttered. He walked through rows of corridors. The sound insulation here is not good, and the movement of men and women in the room is really vivid. Faster and faster - where is Gu Mang?After walking through dozens of rooms, I still didn't see the sign.

Went up to the second floor and searched again.

Finally, at a remote corner, Mo Xi stopped.

A dark wooden sign with thin handwriting.

"Chonghua traitor Gu Mang"

In the entire other courtyard, there is the only card with the word "Chong Hua" on it.

Mo Xi's gaze seemed to be extremely heavy and heavy, and it fell on the small sign. At that moment, something seemed to be ignited in his black eyes, burning darkly.But that light quickly went out.

He raised his hand, and when his knuckles were an inch away from the door, he stopped again.

He suddenly realized that the words on Gu Mang's card were red.

have a guest.

The author has something to say: Mang Mang will be online tomorrow~~~

Mo Xi: Seeing him in this kind of place is better than not seeing him.

Mangmang: Shut up! ! !I want to play! ! !I want! ! ! !Come out! ! !I want--!

Mo Xi: ...Okay, whatever you want, I will give you.Stop it.
