In the Moon Palace
The shadow of the moon is reflected in the clear pool, and the sound of dripping water makes the Moon Palace seem even more peaceful and quiet.
A white figure appeared in the moon palace. The white clothes had a faint glow under the moonlight. The hem of the clothes was embroidered with cloud patterns, flowing like yarn, like a dream.
The man's face was cold and refined, like an immortal falling into the mortal world. The moonlight was scattered on his body, and he emerged from the mortal world like an immortal in a painting, making people unable to return to their senses for a long time.
Mr. Yue was wearing moon-white outer clothes and holding a food box in his hand: "If you don't eat, do you want to starve yourself to death?"
When Mr. Yue sat down, he saw a girl sitting on the trestle, dressed as a palace lady. The girl's face was as delicate and pretty as a flower, full of vitality.
But with sadness in her eyes, she glanced at the food Mr. Yue took out, but made no move.
"If you don't eat, do you want me to feed you?" Mr. Yue said teasingly.
Mr. Yue picked up the chopsticks, and the girl was slightly startled, fearing that he was really feeding her.
Mr. Yue smiled slightly, picked up a piece of lettuce, put it into his mouth, chewed it a few times: "It's not bad, are you sure you don't want to eat it?"
As he said that, he picked up a piece and wanted the girl to taste it, but the girl dodged it.
Mr. Yue raised his eyebrows slightly.
The girl then picked up her chopsticks, took a bite, and smiled with her eyes turning into crescent moons.
Mr. Yue suddenly realized that he disliked himself!
"Yesterday, Zhenggong caught a jackdaw. It seemed to be calling, jackdaw!" While eating, Mr. Yue said unintentionally.
The girl was startled slightly and forgot to chew. She turned to look at Mr. Yue. She knew that Mr. Yue would not lie to her, and there was no need to lie to a little kid imprisoned at the palace gate. Her eyes were filled with tears in an instant. , hesitantly said: "Is he dead?"
"who?"
"That jackdaw!"
"Is he your jackdaw?" Mr. Yue asked. Although it was a question, his eyes were full of certainty.
"yes!"
"Is he the one who made you commit suicide if you were caught?" Mr. Yue said disdainfully.
"He is my savior, and I am the coffin..." Yunque slowly explained his life experience.
Mr. Yue's eyes became darker and darker, and the look he looked at Yunque changed again and again.
Skylark is a coffin child, and the so-called coffin child is a posthumous child born from a coffin. She was adopted by an old beggar. When she was eight years old, the old beggar was beaten to death, and she was taken back to Wufeng by a passing Jackdaw.
Although Wufeng's training is very difficult, Jackdaw Si has been trying his best to protect them. He is like a brother and a father to them! Like a teacher and a friend!
"So, is he dead?" Skylark's voice was trembling. Jackdaws are different from ghosts and monsters. When jackdaws are caught, they will bite the poison sac in their mouths immediately, and the blood will seal their throats.
When Skylark asked this question, he was just praying for that one-in-a-million possibility.
"Do you want him to die?" Mr. Yue asked.
"Of course I don't want him to die, but..." But if I hope he doesn't die, will he not die? Now, even I can't help myself, like a bird in a cage, imprisoned in the Moon Palace.
"As you wish!" Mr. Yue's voice was light and smiling.
Yunque was originally immersed in sadness and thought she had heard wrongly. She raised her eyes in shock and met Mr. Yue's smiling eyes.
"Can you say that again!"
"As you wish!" Mr. Yue's eyes were warm and full of smiles. He said every word, and he moved closer as if he was afraid that Skylark couldn't hear clearly.
"In front of that little poisonous kid from Zheng Palace, is it possible for him to die if he wants to? It's not like you haven't seen Gong Yuan Zheng's methods before!" Mr. Yue said, with admiration in his eyes. It's a once-in-a-hundred-year experience for the palace gate. The poison genius really lived up to his reputation.
The poison in Skylark was solved by looking through the antidote to the poison stored in Zheng Palace in the Elders' Courtyard.
He has dedicated his life to researching antidotes and tonics. The existence of Gong Yuanzheng has filled him with challenges. Gongmen does not need so many poison geniuses. On the contrary, he prefers to study some interesting medicines, such as anesthesia that can cause bleeding, trial herb, and the heart-eating moon... and the soul of cold water that can improve the health of palace women!
"Then how is he now?" Yunque was a little anxious. These days, she survived the lunar eclipse night, believed Mr. Yue's words, and told her the purpose of coming to the palace.
For the first time, she felt so clearly that she could escape Wu Feng. However, the appearance of Jackdaw Si brought her back to reality. Wu Feng would not let a Wu Feng assassin who knew Wu Feng's secret escape from Wu Feng's control.
There is one jackdaw shop today, and there will be countless jackdaw shops tomorrow, endless, until she is captured back to Wu Feng, or killed on the spot!
Just like Wu Ming, more than twenty years later, Wu Feng still did not give up tracking Wu Ming. He came to the palace gate himself, in addition to stealing the Baicao Extract, he also had another purpose, which was to find Wu Ming.
Mr. Yue looked at Yunque's anxious face, and frowned slightly, and said with some thought: "He was poisoned by Ayao, and now he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead."
Yunque's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she begged: "Can you take me to see him? Just for a glance."
Mr. Yue lowered his eyes: "No, people from the back mountain cannot go to the front mountain at will. If I happened to save you that day, it was already a violation of the palace rules."
Got punished.
"Will Gongmen kill him?" Yunque knew that Mr. Yue was powerless and stopped begging. She closed her eyes and said calmly.
"The palace gate is not as cruel as you think, it just depends on how he chooses!" Mr. Yue received Gong Yaozheng's letter today and knew Gong Yaozheng's plan, but the letter did not say whether Jackdaw Si had agreed or not.
Skylark opened his eyes and remembered all the things he had done in Wufeng. Jackdaw picked up the little girl and watched the sunset, because Wufeng's windows only opened to the west. He said that jackdaws only belong to the night and cold winter, and will never see the sunrise or spring. Hope that one day, she can go and see it for him.
Tears flashed in Yunque's eyes: I have seen the dawn of escaping from Wufeng, will you accompany me? I don’t want to watch the sunrise for you, I want to watch it with you!
Winter is almost over and spring will soon come. Jackdaw, you will definitely survive this winter, you will!
"Don't worry, didn't you say you still have a sister? For your sister, Jackdaw Si will not give up his life easily." Mr. Yue finally couldn't bear to see Yunque sad.
Although Gong Yaozheng's letter to him did not clearly state whether Jackdaw Si had betrayed Wu Feng, but he told Gong Yaozheng to tell Yunque about the matter, and he understood that Jackdaw Si was already involved!
Hearing this, Yunque looked into Mr. Yue's eyes, which were clear and reflected his own reddish eyes.
She reached out to pick up a fallen leaf, stood up, and walked to the desk behind her.
After thinking for a while, I picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the fallen leaves: "Commit yourself to begging."
"Last night was the Lantern Festival, and there were no lanterns in Wufeng. In the past, every Lantern Festival, my sister and I would guess crossword puzzles together."
Mr. Yue stepped forward and looked at the fallen leaf. He knew in his heart that it was the word "thank you".
"Begging" means "begging", and committing one's "body" to "begging" is not the word "thank you"!
Mr. Yue's eyes were full of smiles: "You're welcome!"
Skylark said nothing, turned back to the trestle, and fiddled with the water in Bitan with his hands, causing ripples on the surface...
Mr. Yue looked at Yunque with more and more gentle eyes. He thought that he must have fallen in love with this girl.
She is so simple and kind, even if she is in the mud, she still blooms like a spotless lotus. The kindness in her heart has not diminished at all. Even as a Wufeng assassin, her hands have never been stained with the blood of an innocent person.
Even if she had killed someone, it was to protect herself. If she didn't kill someone, people would kill her!
She and her sister were training day and night in the absence of a front to make themselves stronger, win in battles again and again, and try their best just to survive! The rights that everyone should have when they are born have become so precious and out of reach for them.
And in the dark and without front...
Yun Weishan sat on the bed in the training room, looking at the cold light coming from the window, feeling faintly worried in his heart.
After entering the palace gate, Yunque lost his voice, and Jackdaw Si didn't come back last night. Wu Feng sent news that Jackdaw Si was arrested by the palace gate!
She didn't know if this was intentional, maybe it was just to enter the palace gate and look for Skylark.
Deep in Wufeng, in the leader's hall, a figure appeared on the screen: "Has Jackdaw Si been arrested?"
The hoarse voice was hard to tell whether it was male or female, but it was just extremely difficult to hear.
"According to the news from Jackdaw, it is like this, but... it may be that he was exposed in order to enter the palace gate!" Jackdaw Qi stood under the stage, looking up at the black shadow on the high platform. Although he and Han Ya Si usually doesn't deal with him very much, but he doesn't want this old friend to die yet.
"No matter what he is for, if he doesn't come back within three days and brings back any useful news. Then he doesn't have to live anymore. You know what to do!"
"Understood!" Jackdaw Qi curled his lips and smiled, with an evil smile, and turned around to leave.
But only he himself knows that there is some truth or falsehood in this smile. Jackdaw Si, I hope you won’t embarrass me!
After all, you are missing from Wu Feng, although it’s not a big deal...
Three days later…
The palace gate was peaceful as if nothing had happened...
Gong Ziyu was confined to the Yu Palace and could not leave the palace. Ziyi couldn't get the situation of the palace gate out of him...
Gong Yaozheng brought a skylark bracelet to Jackdaw House. The bracelet had a skylark pattern on it.
Jackdaw Si sat in the dungeon and took over Skylark's bracelet tremblingly: "Is she okay?"
"She knows that you were arrested by the palace gate, and she hopes that you will live well."
"I believe you, bring the poison!"
"What poison?" Gong Yaozheng looked questioning.
"The poison you wanted me to take that day." Jackdaw Si said with an expression that said, "Don't pretend to be stupid."
"This!" Gong Yaozheng took out the pill.
Then, with Jackdaw Si's shocked expression, he ate it in one bite: "This is Baicao Extract, do you want it?"
Jackdaw Si's pupils trembled slightly, and he was speechless for a moment.
"What do you want?" As smart as Jackdaw Si, now he doesn't know what kind of medicine Gong Yaozheng is selling in his gourd.
Gong Yaozheng took out the bottle, stuffed it into Jackdaw Si's clothes, took the bracelet from Jackdaw Si's hand, and threw it down hard, causing the bracelet to fall apart.
Jackdaw Si hurriedly picked it up, and just as he picked up the bracelet, the sound of a sharp blade piercing his flesh came. Jackdaw Si turned around in disbelief, and the sharp blade penetrated his heart.
Gong Yaozheng quickly fed a pill into Jackdaw Si's mouth. Jackdaw Si swallowed the pill, but couldn't hold on anymore and fell down.
The blood dyed the straw in the dungeon red, and the strong smell of blood made Gong Yaozheng cover his nose in discomfort, and ordered with a look of disgust: "Drag him out and throw him away!"
Then, he walked out of the dungeon without looking back, wiped the blood on his hands with a handkerchief... and threw the handkerchief into the fire, burning it up...
After a while, Jackdaw Si's body was thrown out from the path of the palace gate, and was randomly thrown into the jungle outside the palace gate...
A mysterious whistle came from the jungle, startling the jackdaws in the jungle, flapping their wings and flying away...
