Facing Ji Yunhe's remarks, Lin Haoqing was unable to speak for a long time.
He looked at Ji Yunhe silently. The sun was just right outside the house, and when it came in, the time was a little off. He seemed to see the woman in front of him growing butterfly wings again, and she was telling him again, I want to Let's go, I will definitely fly over the sea this time.
Stubborn enough to make people laugh, and sincere enough to make people cry.
"Why?" After a long time, Lin Haoqing finally opened his mouth. These three words seemed to have no reason, making it impossible to answer, but Ji Yunhe quickly answered him.
"I feel sorry for him." The sunlight slanted on Ji Yunhe, wiping her eyes a little blurry, she seemed to have sharpness and tenderness at the same time, she said, "The freedom I didn't get in the end, I hope he can Lost and found. If my life has value, I want it to be on him."
Lin Haoqing looked at Ji Yunhe with a slightly disappointed look.
After many years, Lin Haoqing has finally become the person who only cares about himself.
Ji Yunhe, however, wanted to trade his life for the freedom of another person.
Time flies, and fate turns, they have become two different people in their own choices.
There is no right or wrong, no right or wrong, just looking back, the place is left in a mess and desolate.
Ji Yunhe stood up from the chair and woke up Lin Haoqing who was in a trance.
"How is it, Valley Master?" She smiled slightly and asked him, "Bento is my last wish. For the sake of so many years of entanglement, give me a ride."
Lin Haoqing was silent for a long time. In the warm sun of the late spring in the Valley of the Demons, he looked at Ji Yunhe's smiling face and curled the corners of his lips.
"it is good."
"Thank you."
Without further words, Ji Yunhe turned around neatly.
"Ji Yunhe."
Ji Yunhe turned his head slightly.
"When are you going to leave?"
Ji Yunhe pondered for a moment: "You can write a letter to the imperial court today and ask them to send someone to pick us up. Calculate the letter and the time when they came. It's time to leave in three days." Ji Yunhe smiled, "It's just right, you can still watch it. You take the position of the Valley Master of Lifengtang."
Lin Haoqing lowered his head.
"Come on, I'll write you a letter now."
Ji Yunhe waved his hand and walked into the sunlight outside the house.
She returned to the small courtyard. Luo Jinsang was still sitting in the courtyard drinking tea. Ji Yunhe told her, "Jin Sang, you really gave me a good idea when you came back this time."
"What? Lin Haoqing promised to give you the position of Valley Master? Can you let the merman go?"
Ji Yunhe smiled: "Yes, after three days, I can take the merman away. You go out of the valley first and go outside to find your monk Kongming. If you can find out about Xue Sanyue, it will be even better. You and They will meet and wait for me outside."
"Hey? You got the position of the valley owner, and if you don't become the valley owner, are you going to run away with a merman?"
"Yes." Ji Yunhe handed her the teacup and teapot, "I have used this tea set for so many years, and I quite like it. You can take it out for me first, use it yourself, and I will come to you to get it later."
As soon as Luo Jinsang heard it, he immediately responded: "Good. Finally, the great cause is promising!"
Ji Yunhe looked at her with a smile: "Get out of the valley quickly."
"Well, good. Then I'll go first, when will you be able to do it?"
"About... ten days later."
Luo Jinsang hid herself, took her tea set, and walked away. Watching Luo Jinsang walk away, Ji Yunhe glanced at the sunset that was already sinking. She took a deep breath and turned to go to the prison where Changyi was imprisoned.
When Ji Yunhe entered the prison, Chang Yi was playing chess with himself.
She drew the chessboard with him in the dungeon before, and she brought the chess pieces. She taught Changyi and played a few games. Changyi didn't have a plan and could always beat her, but she didn't get angry. Patience, learning the lessons of failure over and over again, is a good student.
Ji Yunhe walked into the dungeon, Changyi turned to look at her, his eyes were calm, and there was no resentment.
He said to Ji Yunhe, "I have played a few games with myself, and I have made great progress."
This student did not hesitate to praise himself.
Ji Yunhe smiled, opened the cell door, and walked in: "Really, let's play the next round together."
Changyi took the pieces back into the chess box and handed the white chess box to Ji Yunhe. Ji Yunhe took it. The two of them tacitly understood that they did not mention the matter of the Shunde Princess that day. There was no mention of Ji Yunhe's embarrassment and her emotional breakdown.
They played a game quietly. After this game of chess is over, it is already midnight.
Changyi still lost, but he "survived" longer than every time before.
"It's really improved." Ji Yunhe admitted his strength.
Changyi looked at the chessboard and was still thinking: "This step is wrong, and then the next step is wrong. I can't help it."
Ji Yunhe quietly waited for him to thoroughly study the defeat, summed up the reasons for his failure, and then looked at him and said, "Changyi, I think... Let me do you a favor."
Chang Yi looked up at her, her clear blue eyes clearly reflected Ji Yunhe's figure.
Under such gaze, even though Ji Yunhe had already made countless hints and preparations for herself before coming, she still hesitated at this moment.
She hesitated whether to deceive him or not, and whether what she was going to say next would hurt him.
But this is always the case in the world, and it is difficult to have both.
"Changyi." Ji Yunhe looked into his eyes calmly, and said calmly, "Would you like to... go to the capital and serve Princess Shunde?"
Chang Yi looked at Ji Yunhe quietly, without evading his eyes: "Do you want me to go?"
"Yes, I want you to go."
Chang Yi lowered his eyes and looked at the disastrous chess game on the ground.
On the simple chessboard engraved on the stone slab of the dungeon, there were many pieces, and he patiently picked them up one by one, white to white, black to black. While picking it up in an orderly manner, he answered without any confusion.
"If you wish, I will go."
Ji Yunhe had long guessed how Changyi would answer, and while sitting in this dark cage, listening to the plain and watery answer, Ji Yunhe couldn't help but tremble at the crisp sound of the chess pieces.
Looking at the long meaning of silence, she only felt that her heart was full of mixed feelings, and all the turbulent emotions finally stopped in her eyes.
"Changyi." The corners of her mouth curled up, "You are really gentle."
Chang Yi picked up all the pieces and looked up at Ji Yunhe.
"I don't want you to be tortured by this world again."
"Thank you."
Ji Yunhe stood up, and she turned her back: "Tomorrow, I'll see you again."
She walked out of the prison quickly. She didn't dare to stop for a moment, she kept walking, she kept walking, until she reached the depths of the desolate sea of flowers, and then she stopped when there was no sound.
At this moment, the sky is full of stars, she looked up at the vast starry sky, gritted her teeth tightly, and finally raised her hand, hammering two fists in her heart. He hit him so hard that he bowed his back.
You don't want me to be tortured by the world again.
And I don't want you to float in the world again.
So, sorry, long-term.
At the same time, thank you so much, Sansheng is fortunate to meet you...
