Chapter 32
Chapter 32
The red tiles on the high wall, the heavy door door and the red paint are bright, with a creak, the red door is pushed open, the night wind blows in from the open door, the wind blows the gauze hanging in the room, the candlelight on the table flickers, glowing The candle flame swayed the white figure lying flat on the bed, and then resumed its original shape after the door was closed and continued to burn around.
Bright red brocade quilt and brocade pillow, black hair scattered on the pillow, smudged with dusty white clothes, golden tassels scattered around the waist, slender hands clasped unconsciously on the abdomen, crystal clear skin glowing with warm colors under the candlelight, slender eyelashes under the eyes Casting a fan-shaped shadow, with a straight nose and cherry-colored thin lips, Nalan Mei is as delicate as porcelain jade and as quiet as a virgin.
Zhou Jin stood beside the bed, inspecting Nalan Mei from top to bottom, his eyes revealing a strong fascination, after so much effort, he still got it, he looked at it for a while, laughed and reached out to touch the golden hair around his waist. The belt, just for a moment, the hand was frozen in the air, and even the smile was frozen at the corner of the mouth, and the sharp blade stretched out from behind, icy his neck.
Young Master Zhou was taken aback, and opened his mouth to call for someone, but he heard a cold voice that seemed to come from hell behind him, sending a chill down Young Master Zhou's back, "It's best not to move, my sword has always been disobedient, in case I miss it and cut it Breaking your neck would be bad."
"Okay, okay, I won't move." Zhou Jin maintained his posture, suppressed the trembling of his heart, swallowed, and asked cautiously, "I don't know what the hero is doing here late at night?"
"Shut up!" The man behind him was all in pitch black, with a handsome and handsome appearance, his skin was pale due to not seeing the sun all day, his eyes as black as shining stones were full of fierce murderous aura, and his whole body exuded a cold and dead air.
"Yi, don't scare him, I still have questions to ask him." The person on the bed gently opened his eyes, and the bright eyes were shining like water.
Zhou Jin stared at him dumbfounded, her eyes full of disbelief, isn't this man intoxicated?how come? …
Nalan Mei smiled slightly, got up slowly and got out of bed, arranged her clothes gracefully, and turned her eyes to him when she was in order, and understood the surprise in his eyes, Nalan Mei explained to him softly, "Young Master Zhou, How can there be a scent in the dungeon? Anyone with a brain would think that there is something weird in it." After a pause, he said, "I just want to know your purpose by pretending to be unconscious." He became lustful.
Yi turned his eyes cold, and the air seemed to have cooled down. Zhou Jin also knew that she had offended someone she shouldn't have offended today. He poured water by himself, with a relaxed look as if he was at home.
Yi raised his foot and kicked, Zhou Jin's legs softened and knelt in front of Nalan Mei, Zhou Jin was about to struggle, when the sword in Yi's hand was on Zhou Jin's bosom, Zhou Jin froze and dared not move, Nalan Mei lightened Smiling, he said to Yi, "Yi, you can't do this, invite Master Zhou to take a seat."
Before Zhou Jin could speak, Yi pulled him up, stretched out his legs to hook the stool, and pressed him down suddenly. Zhou Jin sat stiffly on the stool, and Yi stretched out his hand, Zhou Jin couldn't move at all. Looking at Nalan Mei with bony eyes.
"Yi, you step back first, I have something to ask Master Zhou alone." Nalan Mei put down the teacup in his hand, his eyes were gentle, but it put an invisible pressure on Zhou Jin, he whispered: "As long as I know, I will Tell you."
Yi's figure disappeared in an instant, and only Zhou Jin was panting slightly in the quiet room. Nalan Mei was silent for a while, and organized a few questions that he needed to ask clearly, "What is the relationship between Master Zhou and the state inspector?"
Zhou Jin calmed down, her eyes rolled bonyly, as if she was thinking about something, Nalan Mei looked at him and reminded him, "Master Zhou, Yi is right outside the door, no one will come near, no one Knowing what you said, you can say it with confidence." Another meaning is that even if Zhou Jin called someone at this time, Nalan Mei would have enough time to kill him.
Zhou Jin obviously also understood the meaning of Nalan Mei's words, thought for a while, and then said, "I heard from my uncle that he once rescued Inspector Ning, and then we met. It was not long ago that Inspector Ning came to find out that Inspector Ning He is Prime Minister Ning's nephew, I don't know the rest."
Nalan Mei was silent for a moment thoughtfully, and then asked, "Master Zhou, do you know why the State Inspector is looking for your uncle?"
Zhou Jin thought for a longer time this time, and said after a while, "It seems to be for some Shenmiaomen, I heard from my uncle that one of the halls of Shenmiaomen is located in Shangyuan City, let us find it no matter what method we use. "
"Did Governor Zhou say that Inspector Ning is looking for Shenmiao Gate?" Shenmiao Gate changes its address at any time, and it is not easy to find it. This week, the young master can't find it even after several years, so he is not worried, he is worried. What is the purpose behind this, what is the purpose of Prime Minister Ning You looking for Shenmiaomen?
Zhou Jin shook her head and said, "This uncle didn't say anything. He only said that Inspector Ning confessed that once he found it, he would do his best to eradicate it, and he would explain other things after finding the Shenmiao Gate."
Nalan Mei smiled, and didn't ask any further questions. If I continued to ask, it would probably be nonsense. Obviously, Zhou Jin and Zhou Taishou didn't know much about the inside story. If you really want to find out, it's most appropriate to ask Ning Zhong directly. , but he didn't have that thought.
"Master Zhou, I believe you are a smart person, so I believe you will not speak out about today's conversation."
Zhou Jin nodded cleverly. Once Prime Minister Ning You knew what happened today, Prime Minister Ning You would definitely not let him go. He didn't know much, but it was enough to let him die once. He didn't want to bring disaster on himself. There are only the two of them here, as long as neither of them speak, no one will know.
Nalan Mei smiled at him, flicked his fingers, and Zhou Jin fell to the ground with a muffled grunt. At the same time, Yi's figure fell, grabbed Zhou Jin and was still facing the bed, and then faced Nalan Mei, whispering, "Young Master!" Lord, the prefect is fine."
Nalan Mei nodded and said with a gentle smile, "Yi, thank you for your hard work."
Yi's stern face was covered with light tenderness, he shook his head, "Thank you, Young Master, for your concern, this is what subordinates should do."
"Yi, is there no news about the funeral?" Nalan Mei asked him, the last time he sent the funeral letter back to Jinyang, there is no news until now, is it delayed by Qing, delayed on the way, or, what happened? …
Yi shook his head, with a rare melancholy expression, and there was a little worry in the melancholy. Nalan Mei saw it, and his eyes flickered, "Yi, if you are worried, go back to Jinyang and have a look."
Yi raised his head, hesitation flashed in his eyes, and then was replaced by firmness, "Young master, I will not leave."
"Yi, don't worry about me, don't forget, I taught the martial arts of the four of you." Nalan smiled charmingly and shook his head and said, "Yi, I know you are worried about the funeral, and I am also. If you go, I will You can also relax a little bit."
"Young master, I will not leave." Yi said firmly again.
"Yi, if something happens to Zan, don't you regret it?" Nalan Mei reminded him softly, "Zan is your lover."
Yi shook his head. As for Zun, if they couldn't stay together during their lifetime, they could still embrace each other after death. But the young master, he was the one the four of them had sworn to protect even if they risked their lives. The young master went to look for him alone, maybe Xing would not blame him, but Xing would blame himself, what he was most afraid of was Xing blaming himself.
"If something really happened to Zan, it would be my fault. Yi, I will not be able to forgive myself." Yi raised his head in astonishment, Nalan Mei stared at him, and said seriously, "Yi, find Zan, and then talk to him." Come back together, this is an order."
"Yes." Yi lowered his eyes, "Thank you, young master."
Nalan Mei watched Yi disappear, got up and opened the door, the cold wind blew in, the candle trembled a few times and then went out, the room was dark, Nalan Mei turned back and closed the door.
He has always believed in the four of them, not only in the superb martial arts of the four of them, but also in their own mastery of self, calmness in cultivation, agility in defense, calmness in ease, and quick wit in burial. They all use their respective characteristics flexibly. Protect himself and the people around him, so he believes that nothing will happen to the funeral.
There was no courage in the sky, only a few cold stars, he slowly took a breath of air, his white robes were raised behind him, a gleam of light slipped through the darkness, and he walked forward slowly.
He still has a lot of uncertainties about those killers and Qi Yanguo. The longer Qing spends there, the more things will develop as he expected, but now there is Ning Youxiang, and many things seem to have exceeded his expectations. He was a little uneasy, always feeling as if he had overlooked something...
Stepping out of the gate, just a few steps away, he saw a figure leaning against the tree not far ahead. The figure seemed to hear the sound, and he turned his head slowly. blue halo.Murongyou leaned against the tree with his arms folded, his posture was lazy, and he looked like he had been waiting for a long time.
Nalan Mei was stunned for a moment, then walked towards him with light steps, Murong You's bangs covering her brows were stained with a thin mist, it seemed that she really had been waiting for a long time, was she waiting for him?He guessed like this, and said naturally, "Leader Murong, let's go back, Jun Lian and the others should be very worried about us."
Murongyou looked at Nalan Mei with some deep meaning, a slight smile curled up on the corner of his lips, and it disappeared in an instant, almost unfathomable, he straightened up, moved his stiff body in the same posture, He walked straight forward, his back was tall and graceful, and his slender fingers hooked back, "Let's go."
Nalan Mei followed up, her soft breath diluted the condensed temperament exuded by Murong You. On this road without courage, Nalan Mei and Murong You walked quietly side by side, white and dark clothes corners fluttering Together, two slanted shadows are faintly drawn on the ground.
"Leader Murong, are you angry?" There was a suppressed silence, Nalan Mei slightly turned to look at the people around him, this person was a little strangely silent today.
Murongyou glanced at him lightly, and finally said, "The first time we met, I called out the master of the cold family. If I didn't investigate first, how would I know Han Feng, the master of the Nianhua sect?" His voice was lazy, and he didn't care much. attitude, "Deliberately leaking words to arouse the interest of the deity, and now the deity is also interested in you according to your wishes, now you can talk about your purpose of approaching the deity."
Nalan Mei stopped to look at him, and Murongyou realized that his movements stopped and turned around, the eyes of the two collided in the air, and the night froze at this moment.
Nalan Mei smiled softly, as expected, she could see it, but that's fine, many things should be discussed as soon as possible, he looked directly at Murong You, his eyes were calm and clear, "I didn't intend to murder President Murong, just I want to use the power of leader Murong to break Shenmiaomen out of this catastrophe, and I don't want Shenmiaomen to become cannon fodder for the people of the Jianghu to break away from the leader of the martial arts like chasing Yuezhuang."
Murongyou raised her brows and looked into his serious eyes excitedly, as if she was considering the credibility of his words, and also seemed to ask him why she wanted to help him.
Nalan Mei also noticed this, but he didn't have any reason, just because the one standing in front of him was Murong You, the leader of the martial arts alliance, Murong You, who has the power to rule the world with martial arts. Murong You, in front of such a person, all the reasons are not reasons.Nalan Mei stood upright, brushing her hair away from her cheeks, reflecting the seriousness in his eyes, she pondered for a long time and said, "Leader Murong, I hope you can trust me."
Murongyou stared at him steadfastly, his eyes were dark and unfathomable.After a long time, he chuckled but said nothing, and continued to walk forward. Nalan Mei stood where he was, watching Murong You's figure walking further and further away.Soon, Murongyou's indifferent voice drifted over from afar, pulling the corner of Nalan Mei's mouth into a comfortable arc.
"I will trust you just once!"
Who would have thought that this unexpected decision would change their lives, tightly intertwining their originally distant destinies, and weaving them into a poignant and lingering love.
After a long time, when they look back, they may feel pain, resentment, helplessness, and regret, but no matter what happens afterwards, it is undeniable that in this brave night, the distance between them has been quietly narrowed...
