Go Home

Before entering the mountain, Ah Liu didn't pay attention to the Hei Mao Valley. After all, compared with the towering and steep Chaomu Cliff, the hill outside Chiba City is really nothing. Even without a guide, you should be able to come and go freely only with a map.

The sky was completely dark, and the mountains were silent, only the insects in the early summer were buzzing on the trees. When I first entered the mountain, the road was quite spacious, and there were even wood sheds built by the mountain people at a distance. But the deeper you go to the mountains, the more rugged your feet are, with thorns and vines all over the road, and strange-shaped branches stretch out on the road, woven into a dense net, and you will be scratched if you are not careful.

It turns out that there will be such a desolate boundary in the rich land of Jiangnan. Ah Liu felt that he had gained insights again, just as the ground of Riyue Villa, the first in the world, was not covered with gold bricks.

After walking in for a while, even the muddy road disappeared without a trace. The moon was bright in the sky, and the towering trees and long brooks illuminating the surroundings. A layer of black condensate floats on the water surface, and it is difficult to tell the truth. Is it algae or something else.

That golden beast would quite pick a place to run. Ah Liu changed the Golden Ring Broadsword to carry it on his shoulder, and continued to walk in. This time, even the sounds of insects and birds disappeared, only the sound of the wind passing through the canyon in the distance.

Fortunately, Dad did not come. A Liu bounced a fat black spider off his shoulder, and patted it in disgust. I searched for a high place and climbed up, trying to find out where Grandpa is. Who knows, just as soon as he put his hand on, he was grasped by the wrist and slammed up.

Lu Wuming covered his nose and mouth: "Don't shout!"

A Liu was in shock. After seeing who was in front of him, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with tears in his eyes: "Grandpa."

"Why are you here?" Lu Wuming asked in a low voice, "Where is Mingyu?"

A Liu replied in a lower voice than him: "Father is still in the Riyue Villa. I heard from the leader of Shen that Grandpa came to Hei Mao Valley, so I specifically asked for help."

Lu Wuming said, "Someone led you in?"

"No." A Liudao, "I only asked for a map from the housekeeper of the villa, and I came by myself, not long after I entered the mountain."

Lu Wuming was silent for an instant, and said, "There are ghosts hitting walls everywhere in this Hei Mao Valley."

Ah Liu was surprised: "Really?" I didn't feel it at all.

Lu Wuming also remembered what Lu Zhui had said, this... grandson, how lucky it is that even Tao Yuer's maze could not be trapped by the various rumors.

...

Ah Liu asked: "Where is the golden beast?"

Lu Wuming said, "You follow me."

Ah Liu was happily, beamingly agreed. After all, to be able to act with Grandpa, this kind of opportunity is not often available, and you must perform well.

Not a few steps away, Ah Liu said: "Grandpa."

Lu Wuming did not reply, "Huh?"

A Liudao: "Wait a moment, I picked up something."

Lu Wuming turned around.

A Liu was cushioned with a rag, holding something in his hand, glowing faintly.

Snow white, warm and delicate.

Although he had never seen it before, Lu Wuming couldn't be more familiar with it. It was the scabbard of the White Jade Butterfly, which happened to be a pair of the Lu family's heirloom dagger.

A Liudao: "Could it be that it fell from the gold-eating beast?"

Lu Wuming said, "You are quite clever."

Ah Liu was full of joy, and Dad often said that too.

Lu Wuming asked him to put the scabbard away, and the two of them continued to search the mountains.

At the same time, in a cave, the bat was shaking the clothes scattered on the ground like crazy. It was still cold in the mountains in early summer, but he was naked, as if he could not feel the cold at all. Until he checked the clothes on the ground seven or eight times and confirmed that the white jade dagger was not in it, he sat on the ground exhausted and looked at the mess before him.

As time passed away bit by bit, a thunderstorm suddenly exploded on the outer horizon, and the silver-white full moon had disappeared without a trace. It was replaced by the whistling mountain breeze and the crackling summer thunderstorm.

Bat Rumeng first woke up and got up indiscriminately, without even wearing any clothes, so he ran out like that.

Ah Liuye landed in an unknown place and temporarily found a shelter from the rain.

The rain crackled down and hit the eaves. Lu Chai sat up in surprise from his dream, got out of the bed and looked at the window.

"Lu Er is in charge." The steward who lived in the same courtyard saw the light in his room and told by the window, "Go back and rest soon. This thunderstorm will stop after a while."

"Where are the rest?" Lu asked. He only wanted to take a nap at night, but he fell asleep without thinking about it.

"The rest?" The manager said, "Miss Yue is in Mrs. Shen's room and she said she won't come back because of rain. Daxia Lu went to the Heimao Valley outside the city to catch the golden beasts, and A Liuxiang followed."

"Really?" Lu asked, "have not come back yet?"

"No news." The steward asked, "Is it necessary to send the people of Sun Moon Villa to find it? The owner of the valley left more than 30 nursing homes and said that he would be sent by the second master."

Where did you go? Lu Chai frowned slightly, then looked up at the sky again.

A flash of lightning pierced the sky, illuminating half of the sky.

The rain was extremely heavy and extremely wide, covering almost the entire south of the Yangtze River.

Xiao Lan leaned on the pillars of the Red Lotus Hall and closed his eyes to listen to the wind and rain.

Lu Zhui liked this very much. He didn’t understand before, so he just moved a chair and sat on the opposite side. Looking at his quiet profile, he felt like a rare and famous painting or a precious jade sculpture--but it was more vivid and agile, and the kiss was warm. , With crooked eyebrows, looks great with a smile.

Now I’m alone. When it rains, I close my eyes and follow him, listening to the wind and rain. Even if I don’t leave the tomb of Mingyue, I can think of what’s going on outside—everything in the world has been washed clean. The grass leaves are verdant, the trees are lush, and the whole mountain is full of this fresh earthy flavor, which is completely different from the tomb of Mingyue.

Xiao Lan seemed to understand why his Xiao Mingyu liked listening to the wind and rain so much.

"Young Master." The maid knocked on the door outside, "Auntie is out, please go over."

"Got it." Xiao Lan's thoughts were interrupted, and he looked up at the small, dark sky outside, before he picked up the black gold iron whip and turned around and left the Red Lotus Hall.

Encountered a pharmacist on the way, the other party crouched and said respectfully: "Young Master."

Xiao Lan asked, "Where is the pharmacist going?"

"Aunt is unwell, I just went to see it." Pharmacist said, "The young master shouldn't be angry with Aunt anymore. No matter what he thinks, at least he should accept it first."

Xiao Lan smiled, turning sideways to make way.

Aunt Gui was still by the Nether Pool, leaning on the recliner alone, holding back all the maids and disciples, looking at the plasma-thick hot spring water.

"Auntie." Xiao Lan came in, "I just ran into a pharmacist on the way here. I heard that my aunt was unwell?"

"Old sickness is not recent." Aunt Gui waved her hand, "It's fine."

Xiao Lan helped her sit up.

"I'm getting older, so my body is naturally not as good as it used to be." Aunt Gui sighed, "If you keep up, I can give you this Mingyue Tomb at this time, so I can feel relieved soon."

"Auntie thinks too much." Xiao Lan said, "It's just a minor illness, and it will be fine if you raise it well."

"You don't want this Mingyue Tomb?" Aunt Gui looked at him.

Xiao Lan said: "Auntie knows what I think in my heart, so why should I ask each other again and again."

"What do you think?" Aunt Gui shook her head, "What you think in your heart is nothing more than Lu Mingyu."

Xiao Lan was silent, not denying.

"Come on." Aunt Gui walked out, "I'll take you to a place."

Xiao Lan responded in a low voice and followed.

Passing through the long tomb passage, the two finally stopped in a small darkroom. It looked like it had been sealed for several years. The bed and cabinet were covered with a thick layer of dust, and the ground was covered with red. Some of the florets even spread to the wall.

The candlelight on the table is jumping, the light is dim, the whole house seems to have just risen from the ground, and it is covered with an old and strange feeling. If ordinary people are in this place, they will be shocked and flee. .

Xiao Lan said, "Where is this?"

Aunt Gui said: "This is where you made a mistake when you were young and came to think behind closed doors."

Xiao Lan shook his head: "I can't remember."

Aunt Gui opened the box and took out a small piece of clothing, but for some reason, it was covered with dark brown blood, and she looked a little shocking.

Xiao Lan said, "Mine?"

Aunt Gui gritted her teeth and said: "The clothes belong to Lu Mingyu, but the blood belongs to you. He has coaxed you around since he was a child, and he was willing to work for him, as if he had fallen into a demon. Let me tell you what is so good about the Lu family. ?"

Xiao Lan said, "Perhaps because he looks good and unforgettable, I like it."

Aunt Gui didn't expect that he would understate such a sentence, almost dizzy with anger.

Xiao Lan continued: "My aunt asked me to come today to see this blood suit?"

Aunt Gui said: "I want to tell you what happened between you and him in this Mingyue tomb."

Xiao Lan said, "Auntie finally wants to tell me?"

"Let's talk about it first." Aunt Gui dropped the blood coat on the table, "What did Lu Mingyu tell you?"

Xiao Lan smiled and said, "My aunt may not believe it, but he didn't really say anything, just let me think about it."

Aunt Gui asked again: "Then do you know why he refused to say?"

"Lan'er really thought about the reason for this question." Xiao Lan said, "In the end, I thought that maybe it was all turbulent things. Others said it was boring, and you have to taste it yourself."

Aunt Gui raised her hand to a palm.

Xiao Lan held her wrist with one hand, and the corner of her mouth raised: "It's the aunt who wants to ask, but she wants to punish Lan'er when she asks. Is it because she just wants to listen to lies?"

"Things that are not up to you!" Aunt Gui said angrily, "The pharmacist just came here, you think it's just for me to see a doctor? It's more for you. You know that the poison on your body has spread. If you don't get medical treatment, you will Was killed by the Lu family that you were thinking of?"

Xiao Lan said, "So speaking of it, aunt still wants me to kill Lu Mingyu?"

"You don't have to kill!" Aunt Ghost raised her hand and pressed the mechanism, her tone was cold, "Just stay in this Mingyue Tomb, and I will find a way to detoxify you."

The ground under his feet trembled slightly, and his sleeves were fluttering with his brows, and he leaped into the deep hole below.
