Shang Ruyi opened his eyes wide, and looked at Xiao Yuansui's handsome face so close at hand, especially those eyes that were bright and restrained, and seemed to be smiling at the moment, but very alert, and his heartbeat also dropped.
??What is he doing? !
??But the next moment, the voice in her ears gave her the answer.
??A burst of heavy footsteps sounded in the tall and empty warehouse, and a fiery and fierce voice kept yelling: "What's going on? Where are the people? Where are the others?"
??It’s Lu Yong!
??Shang Ruyi's eyes suddenly flickered, and then he looked at Xiao Yuansui. His eyes were slightly bent, and he looked at her with a smile.
??The eyes of the two people met in such a short distance, and there was even a real feeling of touching each other - being looked directly into his pupils, Shang Ruyi suddenly felt a little numb. She subconsciously lowered her eyelids to avoid his gaze.
??Xiao Yuansui smiled silently.
??Lu Yong's yelling and cursing continued: "Damn it, why can't you see anyone?!"
??There seemed to be a few people behind him, one of them was Hua Ziying, who said coldly: "Brother Lu, please keep your mouth clean."
??"What's wrong with me scolding him? I promised you well yesterday. Today I'm going back to transport food. I can't even see anyone early in the morning. Isn't he a liar?"
??"Brother Xiao said it would take two days, why are you in such a hurry?"
??"You're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry..."
??Lu Yong was walking around while cursing, as if he was looking for traces of Xiao Yuansui. The footsteps and yelling were getting closer and closer, and he seemed to be gradually approaching them.
??Immediately, Shang Ruyi felt that the hand covering his mouth was a little hot.
?? He lowered his head and seemed to be carefully looking at Lu Yong's shadow on the road beside him, but at this moment, he seemed to feel something, and his eyes moved to look at the eyes of Shang Ruyi who was close at hand. ——
??It turned out that she also subconsciously held her breath.
??At this time, a smile suddenly appeared on Xiao Yuanshui's face, and the hand covering her mouth slowly loosened his grip, as if to comfort her, he mouthed: "Breathe - breathe - "
??Shang Ruyi’s face felt hot.
??At this time, Lu Yong had almost reached their side.
??Both people held their breath at the same time.
??Fortunately, Lu Yong did not go any further. He probably felt that the warehouse was too quiet and there should be no other people. He stamped his feet fiercely, turned around and walked out angrily. He walked far away and still His angry rants could be heard.
??The two people in the warehouse breathed a sigh of relief.
??Shang Ruyi immediately stretched out his hand to push away the body that was pressing on him. Xiao Yuansui seemed to have been prepared for it. He was pushed back two steps by her, but he did not stagger and fall, but stood firm.
?? He smiled, watching Shang Ruyi walk aside, patting his clothes and tidying up his appearance, looking very reserved, and said with a smile: "Thank you."
??Shang Ruyi's face was not very pretty, and he just snorted coldly.
?? Xiao Yuansui was very polite and still smiled: "Just now, if the young lady made any movement, Lu Yong would definitely find us, and then today's matter would be bad."
??Shang Ruyi smiled coldly and said: "Didn't Mr. Xiao say that I am a compassionate person? Just now, I was just the beauty of an adult. However, I understand why Mr. Xiao is willing to take me with him today. I came here to hang out and said so many specious things.”….
??She said and glanced at him: "So, you were trying to avoid him."
??「……」
??"You don't want to transport food to Wanggang Village anymore, do you?"
??Although Xiao Yuanshui had been very kind to her before, and even talked about everything, but when he talked about this matter, a gloom suddenly passed over his face.
??He chuckled lightly
, did not answer the question.
??Shang Ruyi felt a little more understanding.
?? She walked slowly in front of Xiao Yuansui, looked him up and down, and then said: "Before, Mr. Xiao valued my husband so much, saying that he had the ability to disturb the situation, but in fact, he also valued you. He values it very much. Especially this time, your move to occupy Xingluocang, in his opinion, is an act that aims at the world."
??"oh?"
??Xiao Yuansui's eyes flickered.
??Then Shang Ruyi smiled faintly and said, "It's just that he has been worried that the young master will be burdened and his tail will not fall off."
??As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yuansui's expression became condensed again.
??But, it was only for a moment, and a calm smile immediately appeared on his face, and he said: "I can make Master Yuwen take notice, and I will not waste my life. Well, I have been gone for so long today, I must be less Madam is also tired, let’s go back.”
??Shang Ruyi looked at his eyes that were obviously darker, smiled lightly and said, "Okay."
??So, the two of them turned around and walked back.
??When he walked out of the huge wooden door, Shang Ruyi looked back again. This silent granary, which can manipulate the hearts of many people in the world, is as quiet as ever at this moment, but he doesn't know how many turbulent emotions are there in this silence. Undercurrents surge in places invisible to humans.
??……
??After leaving the warehouse, neither of them spoke anymore, and just walked in silence until they reached the small door.
??Shang Ruyi had nowhere else to go, so naturally he could only go back to the previous courtyard. Xiao Yuansui had his own things to do, and he had to avoid Lu Yong. Obviously, the two of them wanted to go somewhere else. The road should split off right here.
??However, when he reached the door, Shang Ruyi's footsteps slowed down.
??Xiao Yuansui seemed to have sensed that she was hesitant to speak. He turned to look at her with a gentle smile in his eyes and said, "Young madam, do you have anything else to say to me?" ?」
??「……」
??Shang Ruyi glanced at him and hesitated for a while.
??Xiao Yuanshui said: "Young Madam has something to say, but there is no harm in saying it."
??Shang Ruyi thought for a while and said: "Actually, it's nothing. I just thought that when the young master arrived at Wanggang Village, he must have met many new friends. They must all respect the young master and be very loyal to him."
??Xiao Yuansui smiled and said, "I am indeed lucky."
??Shang Ruyi hesitated again and said, "Well, Mr. Xiao, do you still remember your old friend?"
??「……!」
??These words obviously surprised Xiao Yuansui. He looked at Shang Ruyi and said, "Who is the young lady referring to?"
?? Before Shang Ruyi could speak, he immediately said: "Green silk?"
??Shang Ruyi's eyes lit up and she immediately raised her head to look at him: "Mr. Xiao, do you still remember her?"
??The expression on Xiao Yuansui's face became a little complicated: "Young Madam has always lived in Dongdu, and I have very few old friends left in Dongdu. Besides, Young Madam is a woman, and she is usually a woman. Think about it.”….
??Speaking of this, he chuckled and said, "Does Madam have any news about her that you want to tell me?"
??Although she brought up the topic herself, at this time, Shang Ruyi hesitated again. After hesitating for a long time, she said softly: "She, she was caught by Wang Shaoji."
??Xiao Yuansui's expression remained unchanged, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.
??After a long silence, he sneered: "He finally got what he wanted."
??After saying that, he looked at Shang Ruyi again, his face had returned to a calm expression, and said: "However, young madam, don't worry about Lu Xiao, she is a person who knows how to keep herself alive. The world is like young madam. In this way, there are not many people who are trapped in the enemy camp and surrounded by wolves, but still maintain their integrity."
??Shang Ruyi thought for a while, and it seemed to be the same thing when Lu Xiao came to give the divine arm bow.
??She has to let herself live.
??In order to survive, people in the world will inevitably have to do a lot of things they don't want to do, and even do it with a smile. But no one knows, when she smiles on her face, is it the smile that fills her heart, or the smile on her face? tears.
??Shang Ruyi sighed softly and said, "No, when I talk to you about her, I don't mean to say how miserable she is."
??"oh?"
??"I just feel that she is alone and has no one to rely on after Mr. Xiao fell into the grass, which is very pitiful."
??「……」
??"One day, if Mr. Xiao can see her again——"
??"how?"
??"Even if you don't forgive her, give her some mercy."
?? Xiao Yuanshui showed an unexpected expression, looked down at her for a while, and said with a half-smile: "Young Madam seems to know her very well? Are you familiar with each other?"
??"No, I only met once."
??"Then why did you speak for her?"
??"As Young Master Xiao said just now, I am a woman and I think about women more."
??「……」
??Xiao Yuansui looked at her in silence for a while, and finally smiled lightly and said, "I won't accompany you anymore."
??After speaking, he cupped his hands and turned around to go to the meeting hall.
??Looking at his tall and handsome back, Shang Ruyi felt a little heavy in his heart for a moment, but he couldn't say anything else, so he could only sigh and turned around and left.
??On the way back, I felt that the people passing by on the road seemed to be busy.
??Some people were forming groups in a hurry, and some were running out with bundles of swords and bows. When they passed by Shang Ruyi, their eyes would stop at her with hostility.
??She didn't care, but when she was passing by a yard, she heard a sharp whooshing sound coming from inside.
??This voice is not unfamiliar to her.
??This is the sound of arrows piercing the air, but this sound sounds extremely light and fast. It is different from the sounds she heard in the military camp in the past, or even when Yu Wenye was practicing archery.
??So I walked over and stood at the door and took a look. I saw that the yard over there was very spacious. There was a row of archery targets on the east side of the yard. A lot of arrows had been shot on them, and they all hit the bullseye; To the west of the courtyard, stood a familiar tall and upright figure, it was the master archer Hua Ziying.
??He was only wearing a single suit. Although he was very thin, there were obvious traces of knotted muscles under the thin clothes.
??At this moment, he took a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his head and threw it aside. He looked back at the archery target on the opposite side, then loaded a few arrows into the quiver behind his back and walked to the first target. A target place.
??Suddenly, the atmosphere in the courtyard condensed.
??Shang Ruyi couldn't help but hold his breath and stared at him closely.
??I saw him take a deep breath and suddenly start to walk straight ahead. When he took the first step, he pulled out an arrow with his backhand, drew the bow - stringed - and released the arrow, all in one go. Immediately, another arrow appeared on the bullseye of the target. One more arrow!
??Good archery skills!
??Shang Ruyi couldn't help but cheer in his heart.
??However, Huazi Ying did not stop.
??After shooting the first arrow, he kept walking forward at a steady pace. The hand holding the bow was as steady as a rock. Only his right hand kept drawing arrows, pulling the bow, shooting, and whoosh. The sharp sound of whooshing is endless, like a urgent and urgent war song!
??When he stopped again, there was already one more arrow hitting the bullseye in the row of arrow targets. No one was missed!
