moonlit night

When Yunya woke up again, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

He opened his eyes, stared at the pile of splendid gold curtains on top of the bed in a daze for a while, and then realized that he was not lying in the familiar Ling Jueding Wosi room.

The dizziness is gone, and the previous heat has completely subsided, but the body is still a little sore.Yun Ya lifted the brocade quilt and turned over to get out of bed, looked down to see that the inner clothes were neatly dressed, and the pure white Taoist uniform she was wearing earlier was also neatly folded on the bedside, there was nothing wrong with it.

But he couldn't remember what happened after he sank into the river that night.

He got dressed, walked out of the screen, and saw Ji Ditang sitting outside, reading an ancient scroll with great interest.Hearing Yunya coming out, Ji Ditang raised his eyes from the scroll, raised his eyebrows and smiled at him: "Yo, are you finally willing to wake up?"

Yunya looked away unnaturally, as if she was afraid of being dazzled by that smile.He coughed lightly and asked, "You brought me here last night?"

"What about last night?" Ji Ditang seemed to like seeing him in such embarrassment, he shook his finger at Yunya, and said, "Do you know? You slept for two days and two nights."

"Two days and two nights!" Yunya's eyes widened, she panicked immediately, and said to herself: "It's broken, you have to teach me again when you go back to the mountain."

"Eldest brother?" Ji Ditang chuckled, "Don't worry, he's too busy to take care of himself right now, and can't take care of you."

"Too busy to take care of yourself?" Yun Ya frowned, "Nonsense, my elder brother stands upright, no one can trap him."

"I admit that he is really great, but that doesn't mean that no one can trap him." Ji Ditang said meaningfully, "Men can't, what about women?"

"Woman?" Yunya frowned even deeper, and began to think about which woman in this world would be stronger than his elder brother, "Is Qin Shengzun? It can be seen that Shengzun's temperament doesn't seem to care about the younger generation. I will definitely not provoke her for no reason."

Suddenly, when he recalled something, he was surprised and said, "Hong Ling! Is that maidservant Hua Jianjiu's cultivation so advanced? Why didn't I see it? No, even I can't see through her cultivation, that means... ..."

"No, no, no, Ah Ya, your thinking is wrong." Ji Ditang stood up, walked up to Yun Ya and stood still, his eyes implied probing: "Actually, sometimes, to trap a person, you don't have to be better than him. High. In addition to relying on the sword in your hand, you can also rely on this."

As he spoke, he tapped his forehead, and then Yunya's chest. Seeing that the other party was still unclear, he couldn't help but hooked his lips: "Forget it, you're too young, don't think about it. Come here, I'll give it to you." Have a good look."

After finishing speaking, Ji Ditang turned and left, Yunya followed him out of the door and came to the front yard, his eyes lit up when he touched the thing supported by the jasper frame in the center of the courtyard.

"The house is full of broken copper and iron, and there is nothing to give away, so as not to make people laugh." Ji Ditang smiled and said, "However, when Yu Shi visited a while ago, he asked them to shoot a good gun. Let's just leave here It’s also idle, and you just came, take it yourself, and play casually.”

It was a very handsome gun indeed.The tip of the gun is extremely sharp, with a cold and sharp luster, while the body of the gun is extremely heavy, it feels heavy in the hand, and every pattern fits the palm of the hand, as if it was tailor-made for Yunya.

Yun Ya couldn't put it down, played with it over and over again, and hurriedly asked: "Does it have a name?"

"Broken mountains and rivers." Ji Ditang looked at him, and said playfully: "I have a pearl, which has been locked away by the dust for a long time. Once the dust is gone, the light will shine, and it will break through thousands of rivers and mountains."

Yunya suddenly looked up at him, feeling that this verse didn't match Ji Ditang's previous style, and the man in scarlet clothes added slowly: "It was taken by the person who shot this gun. I don't understand what he thinks. But I think things like names are not really important, if you don’t like it, you can change it.”

Yunya frowned and thought for a moment, then finally turned her eyes back to the gun body, and said nonchalantly, "Forget it, as you said, it's just a name. However, Pavilion Master Langxuan has always been uninterested, so why not?" Will you give me such a good magic weapon for no reason? Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"So, it seems that you know me very well." Ji Ditang raised his eyebrows slightly, "However, it's not for no reason. I have a happy event, you must want to know."

"happy event?"

"It's a happy event. Ah Ya, you can finally take revenge." Ji Ditang smiled slightly, "Just yesterday, someone told me that your enemy has not restrained himself for several years, and finally he was rejected by your sage, and he was demoted again and again. It's useless to spend your wealth. You can only watch the trees fall and the monkeys scatter, and you are sentenced to exile in the Western Regions to serve the torture. How similar is it to your family when you end up in such a mess? You go to the west at night, just to beat the dog in the water. Blood, come to sharpen your gun."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Yunya, trying to capture even the slightest bit of joy from the other person's face.When he said these words, he naturally wanted to make his young man happy, but Yunya didn't have the same intention as Ji Ditang.He fell silent uncharacteristically, lowered his head, his shoulders trembled slightly, as if trying to suppress some turbulent emotions, and then murmured: "Yesterday? How could it be such a coincidence?"

"Actually, there are signs of this matter, but I have never told you. I am afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty in the end, and you will be happy. I will wait for the matter to be finalized before I tell you," Ji Ditang asked, "What happened yesterday?" gone?"

Yun Ya's eyes wandered for a moment, she pursed her lips, but did not speak.Ji Ditang walked towards him, resting his index fingers on both cheeks, cupped the boy's face, and asked softly, "What's the matter? My dear, don't hang on to me, tell me quickly."

Yunya raised her head and looked at Ji Ditang, when she suddenly heard the phrase "heart", she almost choked her throat with saliva.He suddenly recalled some images vaguely, which seemed to be related to the person in front of him, but they flashed by and quickly scattered in the depths of his memory, and he could not find them again.Yun Ya has a big heart, although she felt a little strange, but she really couldn't think of it, so she gave up and stopped forcing herself to think about it.

It's just that Ji Ditang's move was too intimate for the two of them.However, when Yunya was in Langxuan Pavilion, he had seen Ji Ditang teasing with countless beautiful servant girls and demon boys, and his level of Meng Lang was even worse than he is now.So he only hesitated for a moment, and took this as Ji Ditang's unique way of pressing questions, forced a smile, and answered with lowered eyes:

"I hate myself for being cowardly and incompetent back then. I wanted to defeat that person at his peak and kill him, as if this... would prove that I didn't lose back then."

Speaking of this, Yunya couldn't continue talking, so she had to try her best to suppress the violent ups and downs in her chest, then closed her eyes, and then said with a wry smile:

"Pavilion Master, is it ridiculous to think so? I have been cultivating hard on the mountain for five years just to wait for such a day. But now that this day is finally coming, I am not as happy as I imagined. You know Is it? I don't want to kill him, I want my mother to close her eyes. But...

"

Back then, Yunya watched his mother's face being engulfed by flames, and he was covered by the servant beside him, and he did not witness that person's eyes completely closed.So he always felt that that woman was waiting for him to kill his enemy, otherwise those eyes would have been staring at him in the fire.

Even after so many years, he still hasn't gotten out of the karma created by the fire.In order to get rid of the heavy pressure in his heart as soon as possible, he worked hard day and night to practice and track down, but the more he checked, the more he understood the strength of the enemy.In the process of deciphering the truth, Yunya discovered that his enemy was not just that one person, and tracing back from that person, the source was so deep that he dared not think about it.

So Yun Ya once fell into a deep daze, he wanted to kill all those people, but what's the use of killing them all?My father will not survive, and my mother will not be able to escape the fire that year. Maybe it will cause trouble for Kunwu Mountain and Shimen.

The more he thought about it, the narrower it became, as if he had entered a dead end, so Yun Ya kept procrastinating and did not make a move.He once thought that if he won the leader at the Zhegui meeting, he would go and take the dog's head of that enemy as a sacrifice to the spirit of his parents in heaven, and then he would leave the teacher's door and go wandering around the world.But the leader fell to another family, and the enemy became a lamb at the mercy of others. No one would blame him for his death. Even if he killed the whole family of that man, he would not bring any trouble to Kunwu Mountain.

But is this really the result he wants?

Yunya didn't continue talking, and Ji Ditang didn't let go of his face.This person seemed to fall in love with the soft touch of his cheeks, and began to rub it back and forth until Yunya's entire face turned red, as if drunk.

Yun Ya finally couldn't bear it anymore, slapped his hand away, and said angrily: "Hey, you! Are you finished?"

Ji Ditang didn't care, and just spread his hands and said, "I'll avenge you, and you'll be my sword, didn't you agree a long time ago? Could it be that Mr. Yun will change his mind when things come to an end?"

Yunya immediately became vigilant: "Who do you want me to kill for you?"

Ji Ditang said seriously: "Mozun, Cang Jue."

"Mozun Cangjue." Yun Ya was startled, then narrowed her eyes, gritted her teeth and said, "Pavilion Master Ji, if you want me to die, just say so, there's no need to be so devious."

"I didn't tell you to kill him now, it won't be too late after you practice for a few more years." Ji Ditang took a few steps back, returned to his previous romantic appearance, and said with a smile: "Just write it down first, so I can remind you later. You still owe me a debt. Come, come, Mr. Yun, let me toast you first, and wish you a smooth sailing westward journey and a triumphant return."

Yun Ya hadn't thought about the meaning of these words, Ji Ditang had already waved his hand, and threw the luminous cup full of fine wine at him.Yunya turned around and picked up the tip of the spear, raised her hand to take it off, drank it down in one gulp, then showed the empty cup and raised her eyebrows:

"Thanks."

The process of taking off the enemy's head was too simple to repeat, Yunya stood in the fierce wind that cut his face like a knife in Moxi, and wiped the blood off the gun expressionlessly.He put the head into the jade box, then turned around and cast a distant glance in the direction of the Northern Border Demon Territory.

Although Yun Ya had never met Demon Lord Cang Jue before, she also knew that the gap between herself and him was like a chasm.He didn't know why Ji Ditang chose him, and why he was so sure that he would have the ability to kill the Demon Lord in the future, but since he said that, he had to do it even if he died.If he couldn't do it, he would use this life to pay him back, presumably it would be the same.

So in the years that followed, Yunya was blindly obsessed with cultivation.The matter of revenge was complete, he became more and more focused, and his cultivation base improved even faster than before. In less than ten years, he has become a cultivator in Kunwu Mountain, second only to his master and senior brother.

This situation did not change until Yue Qingchen entered Kunwu Mountain and became the nominal second disciple of his master Hui Xiaojun.But in name and in name, Yue Qingchen is not in the mountains all year round, either in Beiming or traveling around Kyushu.Yunya seldom sees him, and although he speaks with disdain when mentioning him, it is only because some people think that he is young and entered the teacher's school late, even if he has a high cultivation base, he should not be ranked above himself. It's trivial things that don't really dislike him.

What's more, the incident in Xiaoxiang back then has always been buried in Yunya's heart, making him feel that this kid is a loner all day long, and he doesn't pay attention to what he does in his daily life. He didn't know what kind of miserable situation he would end up in if he acted righteously.Therefore, Yunya automatically put the responsibility of looking after Yue Qingchen on her own shoulders, on the surface she only watched indifferently, but secretly blocked a lot of trouble for him.

Among the many troubles, including the large number of suitors.

Once before the New Year's Eve, Yue Qingchen rarely returned to the mountain.He was walking on the half-mountain road with a sword in his hand, and met Yunya who was walking towards him with a gun in his hand.He turned sideways expressionlessly, wanting the other party to pass first, but Yun Ya paused on the spot, looked up and down at the young man in white, tilted his head and spit out the grass stalk he was holding in his mouth.

"Ancestor, you are willing to come back." He looked at Yue Qingchen with a smile that was not a smile, "Do you know? The number of people asking for marriage proposals this year has reached a new high, and they are all famous masters of various sects. Oh, there is a No, Nan Qiong, the suzerain of the Hehuan Sect, has no sense of shame. He has come to beg for marriage several times, and even sent car after car of dowries, as if he was determined to win it. Isn’t it funny? The love of Longyang and the habit of breaking sleeves are on the rise? Sister Yu is going crazy, and I am going crazy, so you came back just in time, and I will leave this mess to you to deal with."

Yue Qingchen glanced at him coldly, then walked past Yunya.When passing by, he said softly: "I will deal with it."

"Yue Qingchen," Yunya turned around to stop him, and said lazily, "Tell me, why do you attract men like this?"

The young man in white had already walked a long way, and when he heard the words, he suddenly turned around, and finally a trace of annoyance appeared in his cold eyes that had been silent all year round.When Yunya saw it, he burst out laughing, the gun on his shoulder was shaking and almost fell into the mountain stream, but he caught it with quick eyesight and quick hands.

Yun Ya originally thought that if Yue Qingchen came back, this person would be complete, and the entire Kunwu Mountain would spend this New Year's Eve in a happy and peaceful atmosphere.Unexpectedly, he still failed to pass this festival.

On the eve of New Year's Eve, Shanzhong noticed that the sky was filled with blood, thinking it might be an ominous sign.That night, someone beat the Drum of Resentment on the hillside.Yunya woke up from the trance, hurriedly put on her clothes and put on Ling Jueding, and saw Ye Zhiqiu standing on the edge of a lonely cliff like a pine and a cypress, with a dignified expression, and every word seemed to be stained with blood:

"Junior Brother, a Taoist friend from Xingluo Dao came to report that a member of the Hehuan Sect raped and murdered 33 women in Jiongzhou, and left their corpses in the wilderness. And just the evening before yesterday, the Wugou Sect was brutally slaughtered by the Hehuan Sect. Nan Qiong will include the suzerain More than 120 people, including the daughter, were all taken back to the Wushan Palace, and their lives and deaths are unknown. Zi'an, you are in charge of the criminal law, and I want to entrust this matter to you, how do you plan to deal with it?"
