We walked into the crowd, and not far away were a few strangely dressed men hurriedly approaching. When passing by us, I subconsciously pricked up my ears, and I heard them say, "First put the jade princess Bring me back to Cangdu", I looked at Liang Yi in surprise, presumably he heard it too, winked at me, and followed quickly.
"Why are you following me?" Liang Yi looked at me and scolded.
"Of course I'm following them with you." I whispered to him.
"What I meant just now was to let you go back to Wen's house first." Liang Yi lowered his voice a little while looking ahead.
The corner of my mouth twitched when I heard this, thinking that we have walked together for many years, but at the critical moment, I found that this tacit understanding has not been established at all. I cleared my throat and shouted at him in a low voice: "Why can't I go!"
Liang Yi didn't seem to bother to talk to me anymore, he stretched out his hand and pushed me behind him, then quickened his pace. I looked at his back with dissatisfaction, jumped to his side quickly, and gave him a contemptuous look at the face he was looking at, and I felt Liang Yi let out a deep breath from his chest.
We followed those men in cross-dresses, and saw them go to Wenfu and whisper to each other for a while, then walked into the alley next to it and came to the back mountain. At this time, the sky suddenly became gray, and large black clouds gathered above the head. On the edge of the cliff not far away, a figure stood upright. I shook my head and looked intently, but the figure suddenly disappeared.
"Not good." I heard Liang Yi whisper, and then quickly ran towards the cliff.
At this time, the raindrops fell down with a patter, and I was so excited that I stood up and called Lisha's name loudly. However, no one responded to me. I was blinded by the rain. At this moment, I felt a sound behind me. I turned my head and saw Wen Ruojing walking towards me with difficulty holding an umbrella.
"Where's Liang Yi?" She anxiously asked about Liang Yi's whereabouts as soon as she saw me.
I struggled to open my eyes wide, and pointed towards the direction of the cliff, "He's over there!"
After finishing speaking, I followed her gaze, and I clearly saw Liang Yi passing in that direction, but there was no one there. I jumped up in fright and rushed over to call out Liang Yi's name, but the only answer was the clear sound of rain hitting my ears.
Wen Ruojing followed me with difficulty, I ran to the cliff, glanced down cautiously, and immediately shrank back far away in fright, I turned my head and looked at Wen Ruojing crying, "Liang won't fall anymore Go." She couldn't help shaking her head when she heard the words, with a sad expression on her face. I struggled to get up and continued to call out Liang Yi's name loudly. At this moment, I heard a faint answer sounded in the distance. I ran quickly in the direction of the sound. Wen Ruojing followed behind me and couldn't stop. Coughing, I turned my head and looked at her, only to see that the corners of her mouth were blood red.
I was so frightened that I stopped, and looked at her pale face that I was at a loss for a moment. In the panic, two figures ran past us quickly. I looked closely and saw that they were dressed strangely. Two of them were also followed. I saw an object falling from one person's body. I hurried over to pick it up. It was a jade pendant with the word "Yu Ning" engraved on it. It must be the personal pendant of Princess Nanyang.
Wen Ruojing said from the side: "The two people from Cangdu just now, what's your problem with them?"
When I found Liang Yi, the rain had almost stopped, I saw him leaning on a big rock, his face was slightly pale, and there were bloodstains on his arms. I was still standing there, but Wen Ruojing quickly walked forward, took out a handkerchief and wiped Liang Yi's forehead gently and attentively.
When I walked up to them, Liang Yi slightly opened his eyes, saw Wen Ruojing, and asked weakly, "Why are you here?"
"You're injured, I'll take you back to see the doctor." After she finished speaking, she helped Liang Yi up, and Liang Yi glanced at me to signal for me to follow, then she supported him, and the two walked back slowly with difficulty.
I wanted to reach out to help, but felt that something was wrong, and I felt a little sore for a moment. I stood there for a while, and then walked back slowly with heavy steps. At this time, I heard a rush of footsteps not far away, and I quickly found a place to hide. The footsteps moved from far to near, walking around, as if looking for something.
I subconsciously touched the jade pendant in my pocket, the footsteps were getting closer, and I heard a voice: "How can you lose such an important thing, if someone picks it up, our whereabouts will be exposed! "After that, another person sneered and said: "Those who know our whereabouts will not live."
I was dripping with cold sweat when I heard this, and was thinking about the escape route when a pair of strange boots suddenly appeared in front of me. I slowly raised my head, and the man in different clothes had already spotted me. We both stared at each other, and after I realized it, I ran away immediately, but the man picked me up and said to another person not far away: "It's that kid just now."
I have never encountered such a life-threatening moment in my life. I tried to break free from the man, but found that he was still standing still, and I was sweating profusely. I thought about it, looked straight at the other man, and asked loudly, "What do you guys think?"
"Is the jade pendant in your hand?" The man looked at me with a secretive expression for a long time, and finally spoke.
"It's not in my hands!" I met his gaze and said firmly.
He suddenly laughed, and I was so hairy when I laughed, I looked at him vigilantly, but I heard him slowly say: "If the jade pendant is not in your hands, why are you hiding here sneakily, and you still think about it when you see us?" Run?" I was about to say something when I heard that, but he chuckled again and said, "If you don't hand it over, don't blame us for the search, little girl."
I looked at him in shock, but I didn't expect him to see my true identity at a glance. At the same time, I thought, if I hand over the jade pendant, then I will die; if I don't hand over the jade pendant, they will still find it , I still have to die anyway. The man's eyes were sharp, I thought I must not be able to run away, so I took out the jade pendant and threw it on the ground.
"Hmph, the little girl still wants to lie to us." The man who restrained me sneered, and I pulled the corners of my mouth in frustration, "I didn't lie to you, the jade pendant is indeed not in my hand, I put it On me." As soon as I finished speaking, the man beside me had already pulled out a shining knife, and I didn't faint, but this was not a good thing.
I closed my eyes, suddenly a gust of wind blew up, I heard the sound of the knife falling to the ground, and then the restraint on my body was suddenly loosened, and I was brought into a familiar embrace, I even smelled the habitual smell on him very keenly. I opened my eyes and saw that familiar side face with tears in my eyes. I hugged him tightly and cried loudly.
He patted my back lightly, and I leaned on his shoulder and cried, "Lisha, I finally found you!"
"No, I found you." He whispered in my ear.
I brought Li Sha to Wen Mansion to look for Liang Yi, but I heard that Wen Ruojing fell ill and Liang Yi was watching over her. Lisha asked me what was the relationship between the two of them, I thought about it for a while and smiled and said, "Bosom friend."
"Li Sha, shall we go back to Fuxin? I promised Liang Yi that I will go back to Fuxin after I find you." I looked at Li Sha expectantly. He stroked my head, as if agreeing.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Liang Yi finally came out of Wen Ruojing's room. He looked tired and his face was still slightly pale. When he saw Li Sha, he didn't show any expression, he was not surprised, and he didn't even show a trace of joy. I wanted to make him happy, so I stepped forward and said, "Liang Yi, we can return to Fuxin in a few days."
"Will it be?" He looked up at the gray sky, said nothing, and walked away.
We stayed in Wen Mansion that night, and I had no sleep all night. Early the next morning, I went back to my old woman's house and brought out both my and Liang Yi's luggage. Without looking at me, he said, "Go back to Fuxin, I decided to stay here."
When I heard the news, I felt like I was being shocked by an electric shock. In fact, I already had a faint premonition in my heart, but I still couldn't accept what he said. I fell down on the stool in despair, tears streaming out. I think I really don't understand Liang Yi. Is it because he doesn't value our hometown and relatives as much as I thought, or did I underestimate Wen Ruojing's position in his heart? I really don't understand how much he longed to return to Fuxin, how unwilling he was to leave his mother-in-law, why he has become so indifferent now that he can go back with great difficulty.
"Liang Yi, you can't be with Wen Ruojing. I asked about it today. She is seriously ill and she won't live long." I said to him with red eyes.
"I've already decided." Liang Yi never looked at me, speaking in an extremely indifferent tone.
"Why?" I stood up excitedly, "I always knew that you wanted to go back to Fuxin more than I did. Now that you can go back with great difficulty, why are you doing this all of a sudden? Because of that Wen Ruojing? How many times have you guys met?" , she can get good care and treatment without you, why do you have to leave us and stay here with her!"
Liang Yi finally looked at me, but his eyes suddenly became cold, "Wen Yi, from the beginning to the end, you always think about yourself. Forgive me for not being with you this time. I will return to Fuxin, but not now."
At this moment, I suddenly felt that I didn't know the person in front of me. The Liang Yi who grew up together and never had any secrets, suddenly changed in an unstoppable way. I was like a fish struggling on the shore, unable to withstand the scorching sun after all, and fell into dying despair.
Maybe Liang Yi is right, I always think of myself first. Just like he was injured, I forgot to ask the reason, and forgot to ask what he went through. Like behind his decision, I never thought about it from his perspective, never tried to understand his bondage.
