"Where are we going?"

Lian Hongyu walked ahead without saying a word, her pace was not fast, and she even hesitated a little, so that Huo Ting, who had been following her all along, became more and more confused.

Compared with the joy when Lian Hongyu found her at the beginning, now there are only more and more doubts and uneasiness left. Lian Hongyu didn't say anything, just brought her to such a desolate mountain forest .

It's not entirely true to say that it's wild, because the town is not far away, and the voices of people in the city can still be vaguely heard.

"Do you really know the whereabouts of my brother?" Huo Ting had asked the same question many times, but the other party remained silent.She waited patiently for a while, but in the end she couldn't hold back, and stopped in front of Lian Hongyu with a few quick steps.

She had all kinds of guesses, but in the end she couldn't make sense, such as whether Lian Hongyu deliberately tricked her into this barren mountain, but when she thought about it carefully, there was no enmity between them, so why bother?Besides, even if practicing Hongyu really wanted to do something to her, with her martial arts, why bother so much trouble?

Lian Hongyu, who was forced to stop, raised her eyes at this moment, and glanced at her lightly.

Huo Ting: "..."

But then the other party's line of sight staggered away from her body, and looked directly at a certain place on the other side.Huo Ting blankly followed her gaze and looked back, but saw nothing, except...

Except for some old wooden monuments, most of them are crumbling here and there, because the weeds are too high, and they are even a little unclear.

"Here..." Is it a cemetery?

Lian Hongyu walked past her and continued to walk forward.

Huo Ting didn't immediately follow her, her heart beat fast, her eyes were astringent, the constant shock and panic made her unable to move.

"Don't go any further..." she said, paused, then raised her voice towards Lian Hongyu's figure that never stopped, "Don't go any more!"

"Tell me, where is my brother?" Her eyes gradually turned red, no one would have a good impression of a place like a cemetery, especially in this situation, it is hard not to associate it.

What Lian Hongyu didn't say was that her associations were all correct.

Lian Hongyu stopped again, she turned her back to Huo Ting so that no one could see her face, "He is right here."

"..." Huo Ting's mind was buzzing, "You, what did you say..."

"I said, he is here." Lian Hongyu said every word clearly. "He died and was buried here."

Huo Ting felt that her legs were a bit weak, she staggered a step, and managed to stand up straight with the trunk of the tree.She clenched her hands tighter and tighter, rubbing against the rough bark, and soon there were many small bloody holes.

"You lied to me, it's impossible..."

Lian Hongyu naturally disdained to explain these right and wrong, she brought Huo Ting here to fulfill a promise, she told her the truth, whether she believed it or not was Huo Ting's own business.

"His tomb needs to go a little further. If you want to see him, follow him."

Huo Ting: ...

It's not that Lian Hongyu has never seen anyone sad, but even if she is crying, it seems nothing special.But looking at Huo Ting now, she felt a lot of emotions.

The feeling is not because Huo Ting is so sad, on the contrary, it may be that the siblings have not seen each other for a long time. Although she is sad, she is not sad to a certain extent. On the contrary, it is Lian Hongyu herself who suddenly remembered many years ago. Kneeling in front of this tombstone.

For the only time in her life, she cried until she was exhausted, and even collapsed and despaired to the point that she wished she could die together.

Huo Ting looked at the two words on the tombstone for a long time, wept silently, and then dried his tears silently, repeating this, a long time passed before he knew it.

It was rare for Lian Hongyu to wait patiently aside, but he was not waiting for Huo Ting.Her gaze also fell on the word "Huo Huan" on the tombstone, as if these two words summed up endless memories and deep meanings, and could remind her clearly of every bit, every moment of that year.

It's just that thinking about it now, my heart is still like water, and it's boring.There was only a faint sense of uneasiness, which was pressed deep in my heart, but it didn't hurt or itch when I tossed it.

"How did he die?"

It wasn't until Huo Ting asked this question that the long silence in the air was broken, but Lian Hongyu didn't answer, as if he didn't want to say it, or didn't want to recall those things at all.

"Killed by the enemies?" Huo Ting asked again, her voice was a little choked up, she gritted her teeth as if she was ready to take revenge.

"Enemies?" Lian Hongyu shook his head, "A person like him should have many enemies."

Huo Ting turned to look at her, seemingly surprised, "You... know him?"

Some things were originally not intended to be said, but suddenly a corner was torn open, and the airtight space was suddenly injected with air. No matter how hard you tried to block that corner, it was destined to be unstoppable.

Lian Hongyu has nothing to hide. Even if she is not a frank and chivalrous person, she is never afraid to admit what she has done.

"Acquainted," she said, even intimately.

Huo Ting was even more shocked, "Then...?"

"Not only did I know him, but I personally buried him here."

"...?" Huo Ting couldn't help but widen his eyes, and the guess that popped up in her mind immediately blurted out without hesitation, "You killed him?!"

Her crime was not a small one, but when Lian Hongyu's head was charged so suddenly, the other party was neither surprised nor annoyed, as if she had already endured it without much digestion.

Lian Hongyu didn't even twitch her eyelids, she just looked at the tablet thoughtfully, "Yes, it's not."

"...What do you mean?" When he said this, Huo Ting subconsciously took a step back, and his body naturally showed a trace of defense, even attacking.

She thought that Lian Hongyu only helped her out of promise, but she didn't expect that this matter itself had such a deep connection with Lian Hongyu.

"If you want to hear it, I can tell you."

"I would like to know."

Lian Hongyu nodded, she is not a person who likes to tell stories, so maybe this kind of thing will only happen once in this life.

She didn't want to go to Zuixianlou, just because that was the place where she met Huo Huan back then. At that time, they were also just diners, sitting at two adjacent tables, and no one knew the other.

Maybe it was at that time that she would still talk and laugh with people, she looked innocent and easy to bully, and then a drunken man came to strike up a conversation and start a fight.In fact, she could handle it at first, but Huo Huan was so chivalrous and courageous, he must have done a lot of things when he saw injustices, so he was so familiar with the road, and instantly protected her by the side.

A young talent, a love affair, sometimes it only takes a moment to look at each other, and it is already out of control.

But she had some scruples, plus she was thin-skinned, so she ran away immediately.It was later that I found out by accident that Huo Huan was actually stubborn and couldn't find her, so he thought of a crooked trick, staying in the Zuixian building as a cook, most likely planning to sit on the sidelines and wait for rabbits.

She immediately felt it was very funny, what if she was just a passing traveler and never went to the Zuixian Tower again in this life, this fool would have to wait until the end of time.

But then I thought that if she really didn't go, there would be no stories between them, but for Huo Huan, it would be a better result.

He is a chivalrous man with strong bones, helping the poor and the weak, and doing good all his life.As for her, the demon girl of the Tianji Sect, everyone shouted and beat her, and everyone got her and punished her.

The time they were together was the happiest and most tormenting period for Lian Hongyu. She liked that man to the core, but she was always afraid that he would know her identity and Abandoning her mercilessly, even... to eliminate harm for the martial arts.

In the end, what she was worried about was not fake at all.

The happy time didn't last long, and Huo Huan finally knew her identity. Lian Hongyu would never forget his appearance at that moment.

"I can see that he wants to kill me, at least... he has that idea."

"So you killed him first??"

Lian Hongyu shook her head, "I never thought of killing him." Even if her superiors knew about it, she just wanted to protect Huo Huan with all her strength.Speaking of this, she has to thank Yi Tianli.

"That is how the matter?"

"He is very tormented. He wants to kill me but can't do it. He wants to love me but can't convince himself. In his heart, all the people in the world, martial arts justice is still in the first place after all. My existence is his ink dot. But such dots became his true love."

There will inevitably be a battle between her and Huo Huan. Even if it's not about life and death, they are destined to cut off their robes and part ways.That battle didn't take too long. When they drew their swords, their hands trembled.

It is really a joke to say it now, although both sides are ready to take the other's life, but in the end, both are giving the other a chance, giving the other a chance to kill themselves.

Neither of them wants to win, neither of them wants to hurt the other.

So when Lian Hongyu's sword pierced the man's body, she was even more shocked than Huo Huan, and she was a million times more dazed.

"I didn't intend to kill him, but he still died in my hands."

At that time, Lian Hongyu only felt that the sky had collapsed and the whole world was dark. It seemed that it was raining that day. She hugged Huo Huan and cried in the rain with great grief.At that time, she had already lost all will to survive. She wanted to die and go with him, but she kept thinking about the last words Huo Huan said to her.

He said: Let's live, lest we meet again in the underworld, and he should be in trouble again.

She held the knife on her neck for a long time, but even if the knife edged a deep gash on her neck, she didn't wipe it away.

It was Yi Tianli who finally snatched the knife from her hand, and then handed her something called "Broken Qiongjiu".
