Mu Hanzhong

The emerald green colored glass cup, which is four inches high and one inch wide at the mouth, glows with a faint luster under the interlacing of candlelight and starlight.The thin colored glass covering it was gently picked up by slender and slender white fingers, and a white mist slowly rose from the mouth of the cup.

In the warm apricot yellow tea water, the tea leaves are firm and straight, with uniform length, standing vertically in the water waves, and countless tiny air bubbles are produced from the bud tips and rise to the water surface.Soon, the tea leaves slowly sank again... Repeatedly, three ups and downs, and finally clustered on the bottom of the cup, like spring bamboo shoots unearthed, or chrysanthemums blooming, it is wonderful, "The tea shines on the people upstairs, and the king breaks the shadow of the lake."

The long black hair was curled up and fluttered with the raised veil, and the melodious young voice floated out of the half-opened casement, echoing under the soft and faint starlight outside the window.

Holding the glass cup to his nose, he took a deep breath of the mellow fragrance, and the young man sighed, "Brother Han Zhong, since you're here, let's taste this gold inlaid jade."

Following his words, a young man in white appeared outside the door.

Elegant posture and calm demeanor.

The night wind blew up his loose black hair, and on his jade-like face, thick eyelashes drooped slightly, covering the thousands of amorous feelings in the uplifting phoenix eyes, leaving only a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, gentle and clean Cheng Che, "It's not my intention to visit so late." Wu Ye slowly walked towards the boy on the soft chair on the other side, and stopped in front of him, "But there is Junshan Silver Needle, if I disturb you a few more times , I am also very happy to be a brother.

"Hehe, brother Han Zhong was joking." Si Huang Hanlian put away the scroll in his hand, got up and saluted, and after welcoming Wu Ye to the chair next to him, he rolled his eyes lightly and smiled purely Come out: "...Why didn't you see them who came in with Brother Han Zhong?"

Wu Ye's eyes sank, but before he made any response, the two people outside the door who heard Han Lian's questioning had already walked in cautiously, with Wu'er at the front and Shuang'er at the back.

The two secretly raised their heads, and at a blind spot that Wu Ye couldn't see, the bright young man who was smiling just now had a stern look on his exquisite face.Glancing at them with a frown, Si Huang Hanlian quickly turned his head and continued to speak to Wu Ye, "I heard that Brother Hanzhong is unparalleled in chess. Han Lian has always wanted to ask for advice, but he has never had the chance."

"Since this one is here, I will guide Han Lian to play a few games. Wu'er, go get the chessboard!"

After all, without waiting for Wu Ye's response, he directly ordered the two people beside him.

"Yes." Wu'er saluted hurriedly, turned around and walked to the place where the chess board was placed in the study.The expression on Shuang'er's face changed quickly, and she took another glass cup from the side and started making tea.

During this period, Wu Ye remained silent.

The emerald chessboard was taken out and placed on the desk. Wu Ye stretched out his fingers to rub it lightly, and after a while, nodded slightly to Si Huanghanlian.

According to the national chess system, the white goes first.

But Wu Ye, who is guiding the chess and playing the black chess, is naturally merciful, focusing on guiding and enlightening.Facing Si Huang Hanlian, who is good at layout and leak-proof, for a while, the chessboard was delicately maintained, and the two sides were safe and sound.

Several clusters of candle flames on the copper candle holders swayed in the blowing wind, candle tears gurgled down from the thick candle stems, making subtle noises.

Wu Ye, who had always maintained the same expression, suddenly sank in his eyes.

On the chessboard, Bai Zi... finally made a move!

The smile deepened imperceptibly, and Wu Ye picked up a sunspot, seemingly casually placing it in a corner.

A drop of sweat slowly slid down the young man's white and smooth skin, and landed on the emerald chessboard with a bang.

There, black and white intertwined, it can be seen that a fierce battle has just been experienced.Both sides have mutual gains and losses, but only a cursory look shows that there are only winners and losers.

——The middle dragon was slaughtered...

Rao Sihuang Hanlian, who has always been calm, self-sufficient and scheming, has been unable to maintain his previous calm mask.

"Concession." Wu Ye threw out two words lightly, picked up the glass cup beside him, and took a sip of tea.

The people waiting to stand on both sides bowed their heads deeply, motionless, like two puppets stuck in time.

"—As a chess guide, originally, I would not fight for victory or defeat." Wu Ye lowered his eyes, playing with a sunspot with his jade fingers.

"original?……"

"Then I dare to ask, what did Han Lian do? To make you so angry, Brother Han Zhong?"

Quickly recovering from the loss just now, Si Huanghanlian blinked his eyes and put on an innocent and innocent boyish expression, "It's just a game of chess, and it's going to be like this."

Dissatisfied, complaining, and slightly angry, Si Huang Hanlian seemed to really know nothing, he was just an innocent and troubled boy.

"Do you really need to explain the reason for my brother?"

Wu Ye curled his lips lightly, raised his eyes and said lightly.

After a while, Si Huanghanlian laughed softly.

"The color and taste of Junshan tea are similar to Longjing, and the leaves are slightly wider and greener than it."

Si Huang Hanlian focused his eyes on the cup, and sighed softly, "The world praises Longjing better than Junshan. Unexpectedly, Brother Hanzhong loves this fine nectar and jade liquid just like me."

Wu Ye didn't speak.

The black agate chess piece flipped and moved flexibly in his fingers, reflecting the jade-like moist and transparent skin, emitting a soft light.

"People always want to hold in their own hands the things they appreciate and are fascinated by. This is human nature. Hard training is not good, and it cannot be avoided."

Wu Ye slowly raised his eyes.

Si Huanghan looked back innocently.

But at the next moment, he almost lost the glass cup in his hand.

Staring closely at his eyes, unfathomable and full of murderous intent, in the boundless and deep dark night, it makes people feel cold all over, as if they are in a snowstorm.

Deathly silence.

Without any words, just a look, Si Huang Hanlian couldn't smile anymore.The deep meaning in those eyes was so sharp and profound, like a spear, it was nailed into his brain that could not be refused.

The wind suddenly picked up, and the broken leaves outside the window struggled feebly in the wind, but they couldn't escape. They were swept up into the air, and then fell heavily.

The white mist at the mouth of the cup dispersed under the blowing of the wind, and was changed from the original direction.

The fingers holding the glass cup moved slowly, and the clear and clear voice of a young man resounded faintly.

"...Han Lian knows." The young man lowered his head slightly, and put the cup on the small table beside him, a rare serious expression appeared on his delicate face.

Wu Ye glanced at him quietly, then stood up quickly, brushing the emerald chessboard with his wide sleeves, sweeping over the interlaced black and white chess pieces.

The door was opened, and the raging wind rushed in, blowing up his white clothes and long black hair.

Wu Ye turned his head slowly, his thin lips parted slightly, and his almost inaudible whispers melted into the wind.

"... If you insist on continuing, don't blame me... I am heartless as a brother..."

The wind is uncertain, but the people have gone.

In the quiet room, candles were burning quietly.

The water-blue butterfly was finally able to fly out from the corner without any scruples. At this moment, it was happily circling, flying around in and out of the study.

His fingers tightened again and again, and Si Huanghan's gaze was fixed on the chessboard for a long time.

... There is no way out.

Attacks that I thought were hidden before... were all blocked without knowing it...

The belated panic mixed with cold sweat dripped down his neck and down his spine.

Suddenly, a smell made the person who frowned and thought suddenly turned his head.

"!"

I saw the charming woman who was smiling and talking just a moment ago, now leaning against the wall and slumped to the ground, the bright blood slowly overflowed from the small wound on the slender neck, dyeing the green veil red.Beside her, another corpse still maintained the expression before death, its eyes were wide open, and there was strong fear in the blue eyes.

Late at night, the stars were covered by clouds, and the sky and the earth were quiet.On the street that has been bustling for a long time, there are only pedestrians returning late in twos and threes, and only scattered vendors on both sides of the street are clearing up their stalls.

The white figure walked unhurriedly on the street. The owner of the noodle shop who was clearing the benches and tables by the side of the road looked curiously. Unexpectedly, the tall young man turned his head to meet his gaze the next moment.

In just a moment, the young man turned his head back and continued his journey.

It wasn't until the young man walked a long way that he recovered from the great shock. Uncontrollable fear spread over his heart, his body backed up involuntarily, and finally fell to the ground with a thud.

That face is as handsome as a god, but without a trace of expression, just one look from the cold eyes can make people lose their souls...

"Lord."

A deep male voice sounded.

Wu Ye stopped in his tracks and looked back to where the sound came from:

"What are you running out for?"

The usually gentle voice seemed to be wrapped in a layer of ice, without any emotion, it successfully made Nan Xiaohuan shudder.

"Subordinates... worry about the Lord..."

Nan Xiaohuan lowered his head, retreated behind Wu Ye, and stood still half a step away.Then, he raised his head slightly uneasy, the aura of the person in front of him...was somewhat similar to the one in Shunyu Palace before this...

A few strands of tremors and tremors gushed out from the depths of the heart, which was the instinctive tremor when life was threatened.

The long eyelashes trembled, and there was nothing in the black and white pupils.

With a heart move, the words blurted out without thinking:

"Lord..."

This sound, like an electric shock, brought Wu Ye back to his senses.

Hearing the voice of the person behind him, Wu Ye really pulled back his thoughts from the previous immersion.

He froze for a moment, then turned to look.

In the faint light, the man's figure was tall and firm, on his handsome face, in those long, cold and indifferent eyes, at this moment, there was undisguised care and worry.

...It seems that no matter when, as long as he turns around, he can see this person.

"Hmm!" The handsome face rapidly enlarged in front of him occupied more than half of the field of vision, and the cool wind suddenly rushed past his ears, Nan Xiaohuan let out a sound of shock, and the next moment, his warm lips pressed against him.

With one arm around Nan Xiaohuan's waist and the other pressing down on the man's subconsciously raised arm, Wu Ye pressed him firmly against a wall, and eagerly kissed him.

Lips and lips, tongue and tongue, breath and breath, intertwined with each other...

And the heart in the chest was also beating violently and powerfully.

……

Nan Xiaohuan was caught off guard and could only let the people on him do whatever he wanted.

Not as gentle and loving as usual, this kiss is full of aggression, as if it wants to sweep over all his consciousness and rob him of all his breath, not letting go of every inch, every inch will be imprinted with that person...

Nothing will stay, everything will be... taken away by this person.

Such a thought inadvertently flashed in his mind, and Nan Xiaohuan's heart flashed with panic. He opened his eyelids with difficulty, and saw the beautiful face of the man who lightly closed his eyes...

Dazed for a moment, Wu Ye took the opportunity to deepen the kiss.

The air in his lungs disappeared, and Nan Xiaohuan instinctively wanted to push the person on him away.But after being aware of his intentions, he was hugged even tighter by the hand around his waist, and at the same time, a breath came from the lips where the two met.

Like falling into the water and catching a straw, the person whose brain has gone blank greeted him according to the needs of his body...

The clouds move away and the stars shine.

After the kiss was over, under the light and darkness, Nan Xiaohuan leaned against the wall in the dark and gasped for breath.

A blush covered his cheeks, and there was water vapor in his eyes.

The water-stained lips reflected the breathtaking water under the starlight. Wu Ye, who was still maintaining the posture just now, looked down and his heart beat violently.

...I don't want to think about anything anymore, I just want to follow the real thoughts that come up from the bottom of my heart at this moment.

Kiss him, kiss him hard, from now on, I don't want anyone to touch him.

His own...forbidden place.

The lips covered it again, and opened the mouth forcefully, sweeping the gums, teeth, and tongue with the tongue...

This time, neither of the two who kissed closed their eyes.

Wu Ye didn't want to do it at all, but Nan Xiaohuan forgot in shock.

Those black eyes, which concealed deep desire, stared at him motionlessly, and Nan Xiaohuan saw his figure in them.

——As if in the eyes of that person, he was the only one.

The emotions that flashed through my mind were hard to identify...

The next moment, he lowered his eyes slowly, raised his hand that was originally on the wall, and gently stroked Wu Ye's shoulder.

After the fifteenth day, the three of Wu Ye returned to the barracks.

That day was a clear sky, endless.As far as the eye can see, the wild is full of greenery, and everything is full of vitality.

Pedestrians looked sideways, and saw a jet-black and a snow-white horse, with long tails, strolling leisurely on the trails in the suburbs.They were followed by another steed half a distance behind them, and they were picking up their speed with small steps, trying to catch up.

Pulling the rein, the strolling horse raised its head and neighed for a while, then stopped.Wu Ye let out a long sigh of relief and jumped off the horse.

They left the city early in the morning, and now, they have traveled more than half of the distance.The scorching sun above the head is baking the earth, people are tired, and horses are also tired, and they all need a good rest.

Yi Lei, who was following behind, arranged a place for the three of them to rest under a big tree, and took out the lunch that Qing Yan had prepared earlier from the horse and put it away, then came over and invited Wu Ye to go over.

Throwing the reins to Yilei, Wu Ye came under the tree and ate something to fill his mouth. Over there, the two who tied the horse came over side by side.

Yi Lei saw the leftover food: "My lord only eats this little, is that enough?"

Wu Ye nodded: "The weather is too hot, I have no appetite."

Nan Xiaohuan untied the long sword at his waist and put it on the stone. Hearing this, he silently handed over the water bag he had been holding in his hand: "My lord, this is the sour plum soup prepared by Sister Qingyan."

Wu Ye couldn't help raising his eyebrows, took the water bag, thought it was warm, but as soon as he took it, the cold touch penetrated the skin into his parched body.

Turning his head and giving Nan Xiaohuan a light glance, Wu Ye already understood it.

At such a high temperature, even if you refrigerate it after cooking, the contents of the water bag will lose their coolness after more than an hour on the road.And the contrary fact, there can only be one explanation.

Is the internal energy used on this without any waste?

Taking a sideways look at Nan Xiaohuan, Wu Ye unscrewed the lid, raised his head and drank a few sips, only to feel the coldness go down his throat to the depths of his body, accompanied by a touch of pleasure.

I was a little irritable because of the weather, but I couldn't help but feel better.

After resting for a while, Wu Ye got up, walked to the horse that was grazing, untied the horse's reins, and got on the horse.

"Xiaohuan, accompany me around here."

He said with a smile.The man standing behind him got up from the stone, whistled, and the snow-white horse had already spread its hooves and ran to his side.

The breeze whistled in my ears, and the scenery receded sharply, full of green, with thin golden veils sprinkled from the sky, it was too beautiful to behold.

The breathing behind him was clearly discernible in the sound of the wind.

Wu Ye suddenly turned his head diagonally to the rear, and said with a smile:

"See that hill in front? Let's go over there and have a look."

Along with the wind, the voice floated into Nan Xiaohuan's ears.

"Yes."

He replied in a deep voice.Over the past few months, he had gotten used to the sudden interest of the man in front of him.

"drive!"

Wu Ye in front of him suddenly accelerated, and Nan Xiaohuan could only ride his horse to keep up.

Xi Yilei, who was under the big tree beside him, looked at the two under the dazzling sunlight, and unconsciously, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

……

At the foot of the mountain, the two abandoned their horses.

Wu Ye adjusted his clothes, looked up, and hooked his fingers at the person who was a step away.

Nan Xiaohuan walked up to him.

Wu Ye naturally stretched out his hand, and pinned the strands of hair that had been blown by the wind behind Nan Xiaohuan's ear.

He did it so smoothly that Nan Xiaohuan was stunned for a while, unable to move.

This kind of action is often done by the person in front of me when I am on the bed, but now... it is not...

He was stunned, and before he could say anything about his subordinates who were at odds with him, the person in front of him suddenly smiled at him.

The next moment, his left hand fell into the other.

"Let's go."

The smooth and slender hand held his hand neither tight nor loose.

At that moment, Nan Xiaohuan could almost hear his heart suddenly stop for a moment.

The hill is not high, and within a quarter of an hour, the two reached the top of the hill without any internal effort.

The sun is high...

Standing on a high place, you can only hear the sound of wind and birds, other than that, the world is peaceful and leisurely.

The touch in the hand is so real.

Wu Ye looked at the distant scenery, and when he subconsciously stretched out his hand that was confusing and troubled before, everything became clear in an instant.

It turns out that I still can't treat him as a pure bed partner...

Turning his head slightly, he looked at the person beside him.

Because of his actions, the man could no longer stand in his usual position.Just stand side by side with him.

There was no trace of fluctuation on the cold and handsome face, his long eyes were slightly closed, and he didn't know where to look.

"Xiaohuan, look at me."

Rarely serious.

Nan Xiaohuan slowly moved his gaze.

The two looked at each other.

It was not the usual kind of eyes full of reassurance, those black eyes were shining brightly, shining with unknown determination and firmness.

And there was nothing in those crystal clear eyes, except his miniature.

No words, just eyes.Full of tenderness and fascination, without the slightest concealment.

Just like that, it hit Nan Xiaohuan's heart naked.

My heart was in a daze, my body couldn't move, and even I couldn't speak.

A smile slowly unfolded on that beautiful face, as if condensing all the brilliance.

Wu Ye slowly approached Nan Xiaohuan, and finally, his lips stayed by Nan Xiaohuan's ear.

"..."

Low voices sounded softly.

After a while, Nan Xiaohuan silently clenched his fist on the other side, and slowly turned his head away.There was a lot of red around the ears.

"Hahaha……"

Seeing his appearance, Wu Ye laughed happily.

Laughter drifts in the wind, spreading far, far away...

There is still a long way to go.However, the light ahead is faintly visible, and everything is changing silently...
