"Where are we going?" Sitting on horseback, Hongdou spent her first "picnic". Seeing that the sky was gradually turning from dusk to darkness, and they were still running in the woods, she tried her best to hold up her heavy eyelids. , and let weariness not sweep the mind.
"Find an inn to rest first, and if it's too late, we'll have to sleep in the wilderness." Bai Yunhe rode his horse with his right hand and rested his left hand on Hongdou's waist. After a long time of tossing, he understands that red beans can't stand the bumps of the journey.
It's all because of Yanguan's nagging and delaying their schedule. It is quite difficult to get to Bianjing today.
Red Bean, who was leaning against Baiyun's arms, gradually took a nap.
Closing the open shirt, he wrapped Hongdou's delicate body, preventing the cold wind from penetrating in the slightest.
Not far from the forest, there was a faint flame of fire, like a hunter resident in a remote wilderness.
The only solution for now is to live with Orion for one night.
He drove his horse forward to the front of the wooden house. A woman and two children were sitting in the narrow courtyard in front of the door, looking at them curiously.
He jumped off the horse with a light movement, and did not wake up the red beans like running clouds and flowing water.
"Madam." Bai Yunhe smiled gently, softening his handsome face.
"This son, what's your business?" The woman replied with a small smile and asked politely.
"Because of the delay, my niece and I may not be able to enter the Bian capital tonight, can we disturb the night?"
"Young Master is serious, and going out is already a lot of inconvenience. It's just a one-night stay, no problem." The woman promised boldly, and then said: "However, I am afraid that I will trouble you to share the same room with another son who is staying. Get a room."
"What a coincidence, is there anyone else?"
The woman took the child and led Bai Yunhe into the wooden house. "A few moments ago, a handsome and lively young man came to stay for the night. This is my husband." She introduced the burly man sitting at the table.
"Excuse me. My surname is Bai, Bai Yunhe."
Only when Bai Yunhe reported his name, the wooden door of the room on the left slammed open with a bang, awakening Hongdou, who was dreaming again and again, and scared the two timid children into tears.
A man with a jade-like face and a similar age to Bai Yunhe stared at him in surprise and joy.
Bai Yunhe's smiling face instantly became cold when he saw the appearance of the person who came.
"Baiyun—it's really you!" The man rushed towards Bai Yunhe, his tone full of excitement and ecstasy.
The narrow room didn't provide much room for escape. Bai Yun put his hands together and hugged the red beans, forming a dilemma of being unable to advance or retreat, and was embraced by the man.
"I miss you so much! I didn't expect God to hear my prayers and prayers! Baiyun, oh... I miss you so much!"
Bai Yunhe secretly used his internal strength, and was about to shake the man who was entangled in him away, but before he exerted any force, Hongdou's pair of slender hands pushed the man away first.
"Go away! Smelly man! You're crushing me!" Hongdou muttered, her nose soft.
The man was startled, looked at Bai Yunhe, and then at Hongdou, a thin mist of water appeared in his eyes.
"You... Are you married?" He shook his voice, his pitiful expression as if he was the object of Bai Yunhe's ruthless abandonment, but Hongdou became a little fox spirit instead.
"How can you treat me like this? I, I've been waiting for you! You have no conscience... woo..." The man choked and complained, his face buried in his palms, his shoulders trembled, and he cried so hard Not so sad.
Bai Yunhe put down the red beans and raised his hand to tighten the man's collar.
"Fengshangyi, put away your singing skills!" He responded coldly, as if he was used to this kind of drama.
The man named Feng Changyi raised his head, there was no wetness on his face, only a grinning mouth.
"Don't be so ruthless, you used to call me 'Shangyi' kindly before. I really miss you." When Bai Yunhe was not paying attention, he squeezed his cheek and kissed him, tsk tsk. .
The blue veins protruded in front of Bai Yun's forehead, increasing the strength of pulling on his collar. "Do you think that hanging your left arm on your body is an eyesore? I'd be happy to tear it off 'by the way'." Whispering whispered in Fengshangyi's ear, and the bloody threat was not heard by others in the room.
"I'm joking, I'm joking." Fengshangyi put away the rogue's smiling face, and did not forget to wipe off the saliva mark on Bai Yunhe's face with his sleeves. The joke is enough, and he knows the truth.
"So the young masters are old acquaintances?" the woman asked in surprise.
"Yeah." Fengshangyi raised his voice and emphasized, "And it's a very familiar, very familiar old acquaintance."
"Madam, is he another sleeper?" Bai Yunhe ignored Feng Changyi and turned to the woman.
The woman nodded.
"It's disturbing. Hongdou, let's hurry." Bai Yunhe took Hongdou's little hand and walked out of the room.
Ask him to share a room with Fengshangyi and share a bed, he would rather die by breaking the heavenly spirit!
"Baiyun! Baiyun! Don't go -" Feng Changyi saw them on their horses and left, she hurriedly returned to her room to pick up her luggage, and bowed to the simple and kind hunter, "Brother Qiu, sister-in-law, thank you for your kindness tonight, I want to go first. It's a step away." It's a God-given fate to meet Bai Yun again, and he will cherish it.
After Feng Changyi thanked him again and again, he hurried to Bianjing with Bai Yunhe's footsteps.
"Second uncle, that weirdo is catching up." Hongdou's sleepy early education style clothes were completely frightened, and he was only full of curiosity. "Who is he?" It actually made the second uncle out of control.
"God of Plague. Whoever gets caught is unlucky." Bai Yunhe said angrily.
"Baiyun—" Calling from far to near and the sound of horses' hooves caught up to the two.
Damn! Bai Yunhe cursed. If it weren't for the overworked horses, he would have been able to get rid of Fengshangyi's entanglement early on.
"Baiyun, are you going to Bianjing? I'll go with you." Fengshangyi rode a horse with them.
"Who are you?" Red Bean asked.
"I'm Baiyun's number one admirer." He boldly declared, sending a few adoration.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Bai Yunhe scolded.
"It was originally... Little girl, who are you?" Seeing that she was very close to Bai Yun, and Bai Yun looked overprotective, he couldn't help but be suspicious. "You are his... daughter?"
Hongdou laughed twice, "Yes, so you have no hope."
"Impossible! How could Baiyun have a daughter as old as you, and I don't even know? Are you twelve years old?" Feng Changyi looked at the red beans in the dark night.
"I'm already in my hair! Uncle!"
"It's too heavy to call uncle, just call brother." Feng Changyi didn't change his smile.
"Shameless, return my brother!" Hongdou shook his head.
"Little girl, what's your name?" Feng Changyi continued to ask Di Hongdou.
"I won't tell you!" Hongdou made a face at him, arousing more and more interest in Fengshangyi.
"This little girl really looks like a Yanguan." She has a similar temperament and a more like tone.
"You know my little godfather?"
Fengshang raised his eyebrows. The little girl is very tender, and she speaks casually.
"Oh? Yanguan is your little godfather, and Geng Jie is probably the third godfather, right? Where's the eldest? He probably won't adopt a daughter."
Hongdou stared at Fengshangyi in amazement. Not only did this man know the second uncle, he even knew the head of the King of Hell's Sect.
"Don't waste your lips talking to the God of Plague. If you are tired, sleep for a while." Bai Yunhe coaxed.
As long as the red beans fell asleep, he could brutally chop the wind clothes and clothes to ashes, and discard the corpse in the wilderness, so as not to be an eyesore and dazzling!
"I'm not tired. Second uncle, he knows everyone in Hell's Sect." Hongdou lowered his voice and bit his ears with Bai Yunhe, "And he said he was your admirer..." She paused, suddenly realizing the old question in her heart crux!
Fengshangyi is a man! The second uncle is a man! But he is actually pursuing the second uncle? !
"You have the habit of breaking your sleeves!" Hongdou shouted at Fengshangyi with understanding.
Feng Changyi shook his head and corrected: "I just happened to fall in love with a man." He confessed frankly, without pretense.
"Just happened to fall in love?" The unaware Hongdou couldn't understand.
"Little girl, if I fell in love with you today, I would also fall in love with you. So it doesn't depend on your gender, but on 'you'."
"So what you fell in love with was purely the 'person', the second uncle. If he was a girl, you would go after him with all your might?"
"That's right. It turns out that Baiyun is your 'second uncle'?" Haha... He has fallen into his trap again, and lying to little girls is his best skill.
"Second uncle, ride the horse over, I'm going to kick him!" He dared to deceive her again and again!
Bai Yunhe, who seldom spoke and galloped hard from beginning to end, suddenly pulled the reins.
He lowered his head and smiled. "You can dismount and give him a kick because—
We have arrived in Bianjing City. "
***
The more it gets late at night, the more lively the capital city of Bian.
Three years after Qiande, the government lifted the curfew restrictions after the third watch, so a unique and novel "ghost market" appeared in Bianjing City.
The name of the so-called "ghost market" comes from the fact that every five watch, all cake shops, pasta shops, stalls, groceries, gourds, tiles and taverns are all open with lights.
Thanks to Fengshangyi, they thought they would not be able to reach the capital of Bian tonight, but they arrived, which shows Baiyunhe's determination and perseverance to get rid of Fengshangyi's entanglement.
The three people stepped into the brightest restaurant on the street, "Yingbin Building". Asked for three connected upper rooms, Hongdou fell asleep as soon as it touched the pillow, and Fengshangyi stayed in Baiyunhe's room. He also ordered to bring several kinds of wine, vegetables and tea, ready to have a long talk with Baiyunhe.
"The little girl is sleeping? 'Second uncle'." Feng Changyi sat at the table, biting his chopsticks, and half teased.
Bai Yunhe sat on his right and poured himself a cup of tea.
"We haven't seen each other for several years, so I can't help but smile." Feng Changyi wanted to press Bai Yunhe's cheek with his right hand, but he waved it away.
"It's really ruthless." Feng Changyi continued to ask indifferently: "Why don't you ask me how I have been in the past few years? And how did I get my right arm back?"
Bai Yunhe's attention fell on his intact right arm, "Which expert has such great medical skills?"
"I'm lucky, the legendary silver-haired genius doctor taught me to meet him. It's as easy as mending a rag, and I'll take it back in three or two times." Fengshangyi patted the scar on his right shoulder.
"Since you got it back, take good care of it, don't keep doing stupid things and let people tear them away in anger." Bai Yunhe sipped warm tea, his tone full of sarcasm and banter.
"Please, don't say it as if it has nothing to do with you, you broke it." Fengshangyi gave him an angry look.
"Blame me?" Bai Yunhe narrowed his eyes.
Fengshangyi hurriedly shook his head and palms. Even if he really thought so in his heart, he could never admit it in front of Bai Yun, he knew the horror of Bai Yun turning his face and not recognizing anyone.
"Let's be honest, are you out of Hell's Gate this time for a mission?" Feng Changyi simply changed the subject and didn't keep revolving around sensitive old events. "If you are on a mission, why bother with a little girl?"
As soon as he mentioned the little girl in red, Bai Yunhe's cold face softened unexpectedly, making Fengshangyi jealous.
"Yanguan said that it would be good for Hongdou to see the world. As for the task, she knew only a little about it, and there would be no surprises."
Fengshangyi pursed her lips, and said without fear of death: "You really think of her as a daughter so innocent? How can you be the second uncle's favorite child, who is afraid of falling when you hold it in your hand, and afraid that it will melt when you hold her in your mouth? already?"
If being a daughter had this privilege, he would rather abandon his dignity and call Bai Yun "Father"!
"What else can you be a daughter if you're not? Erase the filthy thoughts in your mind!" Bai Yun closed his eyes with the flames before his anger, smashed the teacup between his palms, and rubbed his fists fiercely, making it clear that as long as Fengshangyi said more One sentence, he will abandon the gentleman's demeanor and beat him with his hands.
"You can't even talk about it..." Fengshangyi pouted in grievance.
"You can't even think about it!" Bai Yunhe cut off his complaints mercilessly.
Red beans are daughters. This thought made him unreservedly release the coldness and ruthlessness in his heart, release it bit by bit, melt it gently, and turn it into a heart full of affection. Doting on her and loving her is because she felt that she was abandoned by her parents when she was young, and she was helpless. Besides, in terms of doting and caring, he couldn't even compare to half of Yanguan.
Regarding Hongdou, he never had a single thought, and he would never allow others to slander their feelings.
Fengshangyi wrinkled her nose, "If you don't want to, don't want to."
Why did Bai Yun get out of control and get angry when he got involved with red beans? What about his elegant demeanor before
Feng Changyi looked at him for a long time, changed his snarky and amused appearance, and said sternly: "Baiyun, you have changed a lot."
Bai Yun closed his eyebrows and moved slightly, but he didn't intend to ask Feng Changyi why he said this.
"I have known each other for more than ten years, except when you were drunk, I have never seen you without your icy smile." Fengshangyi shook the teacup in her hand, "Your smile seems to be laughing at everything that catches your eye. The people and things in my eyes are so ruthless and sarcastic... Do you know why I am so infatuated with you?"
Bai Yunhe shook his head. He has always treated his sworn brothers equally, and can bicker and hurt each other, but he rarely allows his brothers to further probe into the depths of his heart; he does not think that his attitude towards Fengshangyi will make him fall in love.
"Because of your eyes." Feng Changyi raised the porcelain cup and bowed to Bai Yunhe, "The eyes you gave me are as cold and emotionless as you give everyone in the world... You make me feel, in your eyes, I'm just no different from an ordinary person, not a... monster." He spat out the last two words, his eyes dimmed. "Even my parents looked at me with full of fear, but you are different... Even if it's as cold as ice, to you, I'm just a humble dress, neither unique nor scary."
sad. He searched and searched, just for a pair of fearless eyes...
"Faced with a guy who can't even hold a sword, what's there to be afraid of?"
"Oh, don't keep making fun of me about this, okay?" Fengshangyi pulled out a smile and replied witty, "But, I just like the way you look down on me—" He raised his lips and prepared to Kiss again.
"Bad!" Bai Yunhe raised his right foot and kicked Feng Changyi's **, and heard the wailing like killing a pig smoothly, and also stopped his fluffy feet.
"I... I... I am... Really... Really... Good..." It hurts!
Fengshangyi burst into tears in pain, unable to say a word, paralyzed on the edge of the table.
"Okay, so ruthless... You actually kicked... "
Woo... Baiyun's "feet" is really fast, ruthless, and accurate!
***
In the early morning of the next day, Hongdou stepped on a brisk pace and knocked on the door of Baiyunhe.
"Second uncle, are you awake? I'm so hungry!"
"Wake up." Bai Yunhe's clear and warm voice came from the room, the door opened, and a slender figure in a white shirt stepped out.
The slightest rays of light scattered softly and brightly around him, setting off his refined appearance.
For the first time, Hongdou looked at him insane...
"Red beans?" he whispered.
"Ah?" She opened her mouth slightly blankly, a little dazed.
"Didn't you say you're hungry? Go downstairs and have breakfast." Isn't this little girl still awake? She looks confused. Bai Yunhe shook his head with a smile.
Hongdou snapped back to his senses and hurriedly lowered his head, unaware that his cheeks were flushed.
"Oh... By the way, where's the one named Feng? Do you want to wake him up?"
"No, no. I'm awake too." Another male voice emerged from Bai Yun's body, Feng Changyi.
"Why do you sleep in my second uncle's room?" I booked three rooms last night, why do I have to squeeze with my second uncle
"Let's meet again after a long time, talk for a long time, and warm up the old love together..." Feng Changyi looked happy. As everyone knows, he let Baiyun kick him last night, and the pain subsided for nearly two hours. He also lay on the cold floor and shivered all night, and Baiyun didn't even give him a sheet!
Ignoring Fengshangyi's nonsense, Bai Yunhe took Hongdou's soft weed and led her to the cafeteria on the first floor.
A few side dishes of clear porridge, fed the hungry red beans.
After breakfast, Bai Yunhe led Hongdou to visit the most famous temple market on Xiangguo Temple Street in Bianjing.
Since good men and women go to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings on the first and fifteenth days of the new year or on certain days, the crowd of people in the river drives the smart businessmen to set up stalls, walk around the rivers and lakes, perform juggling, and the shouts are endless, and it is very lively.
"I think this area of Bianjing looks familiar, as if I've been here before." Hongdou holds a bag of fried chestnuts with sugar in his right hand, and holds Bai Yunhe's arm tightly with his left hand, and he has to peel the chestnuts. He is very busy!
"You have never been out of Hell's Gate, how could you have been to Bianjing?" Bai Yunhe protected Hongdou's petite body to avoid the crowd rubbing shoulders colliding with her.
Hongdou remembered correctly, she had been to Bianjing, because eleven years ago, he picked up her frozen like ice cubes outside the pub in Bianjing. The childhood memory was too vague, not to mention that the memory was so hurtful, so he chose to deceive her to respond.
"That's right. Second uncle, do we want to go to the temple to burn incense?" She saw the scene of the cigarette rising to the sky, and the expressions of the believers who worshiped devoutly. She looked eager to try.
"Baiyun doesn't worship gods, doesn't believe in Buddhism." Fengshangyi, who was always trailing behind, held snacks in both hands, and his busy chewing mouth did not forget to annotate.
As a killer, is it possible to pray to the gods and Buddhas to be more relaxed when beheading people
Bai Yunhe looked at him lightly, lowered his head and smiled at Hongdou. "Do you want to go up?"
There are hundreds of stone stairs to climb from the temple to the shrine. The more you go to the top of the mountain, the less crowds. Because the people who visit the temple market mainly play and buy and sell, there are only a few people who really worship incense and pray for blessings.
"Yeah." Red Bean nodded sharply.
"Okay, let's go up."
Fengshangyi opened his mouth wide and watched in amazement as the two walked up the stone steps of the temple step by step, arm in arm.
Bai Yun really wants to go up to burn incense and say goodbye?!
"Feng, do you want to come up together?" Hongdou turned around and called to Feng Changyi, who was full of dementia.
Feng Changyi woke up like a dream, nodded and shook his head again, "I want it! Sister Hongdou, just call me brother Shengfeng in the future."
Hongdou grinned and gave him a bad smile, "In terms of seniority, maybe I have to call you 'Uncle'!" If you want to take advantage of her, don't even think about it!
Away from the hustle and bustle of the crowd, the smell of incense is slightly choking, and the old pine trees standing side by side, straight to the sky, make the ancient temple even more solemn.
"I'm going to ask for a lottery." Hongdou happily released Bai Yunhe's arm, imitating the actions of other pilgrims, kneeling in front of the Buddha statue earnestly, and muttering words.
Bai Yunhe and Fengshangyi retreated to the well beside the ancient temple, Bai Yunhe's eyes never left Hongdou's body, his eyes were focused and careful.
He had never seen Baiyun put a person's figure in his eyes in such an exclusive way.
Baiyun said that Hongdou is a daughter - deceiving himself.
Fengshangyi slowly retracted the gaze that fell on the two of them, and kicked the gravel on the ground one after another.
"Baiyun, when will your 'Command of the King of Hell' be executed?"
"tonight."
"Wait for Little Red Bean to fall asleep?"
Bai Yun nodded. Although he could not care whether Hongdou would understand his bloody mission this time, he didn't want to let Hongdou see what he looked like when he killed people, or even how ruthless he was covered in blood when he finished killing people.
He only hoped that he would be the nerd second uncle in her mind all his life.
"You don't want her to know your true face?" Feng Changyi saw through his mind and smiled. "Don't use your annoying eyes to see through other people's **." Bai Yunhe reminded him coldly. He didn't know how incredible Feng Changyi's powers were, but when his beautiful eyes showed light, it always made people feel uncomfortable.
"Haha..." Fengshangyi narrowed her eyes and spread her hands harmlessly, "Actually, what I saw through wasn't just about you."
"What do you mean?" Bai Yunhe smiled.
"It doesn't matter, Red Bean is here." Feng Changyi took advantage of the situation to divert his attention.
Hongdou carried a small bag of items and ran towards the two of them with joy.
Bai Yunhe caught the fiery red figure that was rushing towards him, his eyes swept lightly towards Fengshangyi's smiling handsome face, and he felt bad about his words that he hesitated to speak.
Hongdou chirped and spread the signed poem in front of Bai Yunhe, Bai Yunhe took back his mind and was about to take the pale yellow paper sign.
Suddenly, a soft voice like the wind blew past his ears.
"Baiyun, don't put too much emotion on it."
Bai Yunhe raised his head abruptly, but Fengshangyi seemed to have nothing to do, snatched Hongdou's autograph poem, and started a fight with Hongdou.
He was certain that Fang was the voice of Fengshangyi.
What is he implying
Afterwards, the sudden dark clouds covered the sun, and the torrential rain washed away the crowds, but it couldn't wash away the indescribable depression in Bai Yunhe's heart.
