In the lobby of the east courtyard, several young people looked a little sad.
Zhu Mingyu looked at everyone and asked in a low voice: "Is it because of this? Is Li Fenglan too suspicious?"
Bai Shuyu said, "It's my fault. If she had shown up earlier, she wouldn't be like this."
Amber said: "Sister Lan has been smashing for so long, she must be tired now... She didn't eat in the afternoon, so I'll bring her something to eat."
Jade suddenly said loudly: "No one is allowed to see her! Let her think for herself! She must not only be angry because of this, but also for other reasons. If she doesn't say it, how will we know? She has been willful since she was a child. After Mu Yun left, I always thought someone owed her something."
Fu Xiaohu found it a bit puzzling: "Although she has been unruly and willful since she was a child, she has never been so unreasonable. Jade, do you want to ask her again? Tell her carefully, maybe she will be willing to tell her."
"I've said all my good things this afternoon, but she doesn't listen... Forget it, it's getting late, let's all rest. Maybe her anger will subside tomorrow."
Jade is not good at expressing herself, and she doesn't like to show weakness to anyone. It is obvious that she can explain things by opening her heart, but it is more difficult than climbing to the sky in front of Jade. Everyone knows that she cares about Li Fenglan. Although she says that she is his "cheap sister", she is willing to listen to her every time something goes wrong.
Of course, this is not Jade's fault. Li Fenglan's "rejection of others" emotion displayed by others might not have been handled as well as Jade's.
On the way back to the room to rest, Jade walked in front, silent, and Bai Shuyu followed her, looking embarrassed.
When passing by Li Fenglan's small courtyard, Feicui glanced inside. No lights were lit, and there was no sound. She gave a cold "hum" without stopping.
Bai Shuyu asked tentatively: "Jade, do you blame me for this?".
"I don't blame you, she just found an excuse to get angry. She would have gotten into trouble with me even if you hadn't come."
"I think you should have a good talk."
"He is as stubborn as a donkey. No wonder Zhu Mingyu's donkey has a good relationship with her. They are the same kind."
At this moment, the aura on Jade's body is quite unapproachable.
Jade suddenly asked: "Did you really only talk about that?"
"Yes." Bai Shuyu felt that there were still many doubts about Li Fenglan's life experience. If he told Jade at this time, there might be some unexpected misunderstandings. I hope Li Fenglan won't mention this matter when she gets up tomorrow, and I hope she can take the overall situation into consideration.
"Then what..." Bai Shuyu asked, "The Li family didn't prepare a place for me either. I'd better go back to my hiding place."
Jade suddenly turned around and plunged her head into Bai Shuyu's arms. Bai Shuyu quickly hugged her.
He asked softly: "What's wrong?"
"I think...we all thought less. I have a very bad feeling."
"What premonition?"
"When she talked to me in the afternoon, she was very strange, as if...as if we didn't know each other at all. She had been angry with me before, and she had also fought with me, but she had never been like this today. I always felt like I I really lied to her."
"Don't worry, you are hiding it from her at most, and I asked you to do it. It has nothing to do with you, so don't take it too seriously."
"No, she is serious, more serious than ever... I can't figure out what happened to her. You are smarter than me, can you think of it?"
Bai Shuyu patted Jade's back gently, looked up at the crescent moon in the sky, and whispered, "No."
…
The next morning, Li Fenglan still didn't come out of the house. The worried Amber couldn't bear it anymore and ran to Li Fenglan's courtyard to try to persuade her.
"Mingyu! Sister Jade!"
Amber ran out of the yard in panic, calling out to the others.
Zhu Mingyu and others came over after hearing the sound, only to see Amber's anxious face, as if he was about to cry.
Jade grabbed Amber's hands and calmed her down: "Don't worry, what's wrong?"
"Sister Lan, she's not in the house!"
After hearing this, Feicui rushed to Li Fenglan's courtyard.
, and others hurriedly followed.
Li Fenglan's house was in a mess, with broken wood chips and broken porcelain everywhere. Her bed was tidy and the quilt was folded well. Jade opened her closet, and sure enough, her luggage was gone.
This time I didn't even leave a letter.
It seemed that she should have left last night. Jade suddenly felt a little guilty. If she had gone inside to take a look when she passed by the courtyard last night, she might have been able to stop her.
It was Bai Shuyu who reacted faster.
"Brother Zhu! You go and notify the Western Courtyard and ask them to send some people out to search. I also brought some people to Yangzhou this time to search together."
"Forget it," Jade looked at the empty wardrobe and whispered, "She wants to run away, no one can catch up... Forget it."
After saying that, he turned around and left the house alone. Amber hurriedly followed and said with a cry: "Sister Feicui, what should we do? She left in anger this time. What if she does something stupid? She doesn't know martial arts."
Jade said calmly: "It's okay. She is very good at Qinggong. No one can catch up with her."
Amber still refused to give up: "Then we can't just leave her alone."
Jade stopped and said to Amber: "Amber, we are not children anymore. We are responsible for what we say and what we do. If she can run twice, she can run ten times. If she really wants to leave, none of us can stop her. Can’t live.”
She turned around and said to Zhu Mingyu and others: "Everyone, please go back and clean up. Let's go back to Luoyang."
…
In the small attic of the Li family, Li Fengyao and Bai Shuyu stood side by side. It rained again in Yangzhou. This time the rain was heavy and pouring, accompanied by lightning from time to time.
After a thunderclap, Li Fengyao said, "Boy from the Bai family, stop beating around the bush and just tell me what you have to say."
"Li Fenglan is indeed not your daughter. As for whose child it is, we in the Bai family no longer care... Now our alliance with Changfeng Tower is in jeopardy. Without Li Fenglan, Changfeng Tower will be in trouble."
"so what?"
"Senior, if the Bai and Li families join forces again, what will the Jianghu people think?"
"Let them think what they want, but how are you sure that I will agree to join forces with your Bai family?"
"I know that senior has something that restricts our Bai family. That map is not the so-called Li family underground palace map, nor is it the lifeline of our family. To be honest, my primary goal is to save our family, and the secondary goal is to revive it. Bai family. If you are willing to let our family go, the Bai family is willing to help the Li family."
"Humph," Li Fengyao smiled, "You are more tactful and tolerant than your father. Boy, I can't trust you either. People like you are willing to lower your status to achieve your goals. However, I don't have any good choices at the moment. I can ally with you."
"Thank you, senior."
"Don't be so quick to thank me. Tell me what you're going to do next."
"Yeyu Xiaozhu does not have any location map, but we can still grasp the whereabouts of several of their leaders, and the headquarters of Yeyu Xiaozhu in Luzhou has also been surveyed by us. As long as we have enough manpower, it will not be a problem to annihilate them in one fell swoop. .”
Li Fengyao nodded: "Yes, the Bai family is quite capable now. I can also provide you with some manpower, but even if Thorny Gate is added, without the power of Changfeng Tower, it probably won't be enough."
"I will find a way to get Changfeng Tower to take action."
"Then what do you want from me?"
"Senior, please don't ask questions knowingly."
Li Fengyao smiled again: "When the time comes, it will depend on how your Bai family behaves... If nothing happens, just leave. I feel uncomfortable staying with your Bai family."
Bai Shuyu smiled slightly: "To each other."
…
"Sir, open your eyes wider." An old man with gray beard and hair stood in front of Mu Yun, with a medicine box in his hand. He looked like a doctor.
Mu Yun was a little impatient, but still opened his eyes wide.
The old doctor looked at it for a long time and nodded: "It should be that his head hit a hard object, causing amnesia. Let me prescribe some medicine for the young master."
Mu Yun stood up and said, "Let's go."
After saying that, he walked out of the house and ignored the doctor.
During this time, many doctors came to treat him, giving him injections and prescribing medicines. But he had never drank before, and the servants didn't force him. It seemed that as long as he didn't leave this gate, no one would do anything to him.
After leaving the door, Mu Yun suddenly became confused and said to himself, "What am I going to do?"
Maybe he has been depressed recently, and he keeps forgetting things.
Chen Wu teased: "What trouble have you gotten into recently? You forget about things."
Mu Yun rubbed his head and thought for a moment: "I remember... yes, sword."
He remembered that he was going to clean his sword.
During this time, he polished the bell on his wrist and the long sword given by Li Fenglan countless times. The brass bell had been polished until it was shiny.
Sitting on the steps, he pulled out his long sword, fumbled around with his left hand on his body, and muttered to himself: "That's weird, where did you put it?"
Chenwu asked: "What are you looking for?"
"Fine cloth."
"Didn't you just hold it in your hand?"
"That's right...where did you put it?...Oh, I found it."
It turned out that he had put it on the steps. He picked up the fine cloth and gently wiped the sword body while his mind was wandering.
Not long after, a maid came over with some decoction and said softly: "Sir, it's time to take the medicine."
Mu Yun said without raising his head: "Pour it out. You won't need to boil medicine in the future."
"My slave knows." The maid said nothing, turned around and poured the soup into the flowers.
After wiping the sword for a long time, Mu Yun was stunned again: "What are you going to do next?"
Strangely, his forgetfulness seemed to have gotten worse in the past two days, which made him frown slightly.
Until sunset, Mu Yun still didn't think of what he wanted to do. He just walked aimlessly in the room, trying to remember what he wanted to do.
Just as he was thinking about it, a servant brought his dinner. Seeing dinner, Mu Yun heard a "gurgling" sound from his stomach.
"Why do you get hungry so fast? You ate a lot at noon." Chen Wu said listlessly.
Mu Yun asked, "Have we had lunch?"
Chenwu was stunned for a while: "I must have eaten it. I remember eating it."
"That's not right. I said I had no appetite at lunch, so I didn't eat."
"Isn't it yesterday at noon that I lost my appetite? No, it should have been at noon the day before yesterday... Forget it, it doesn't matter when, let's eat quickly."
They were indeed hungry, so they no longer struggled with whether to have lunch or not. Let's fill their stomachs first.
Today's dinner is quite sumptuous, one soup and two dishes.
He took a sip of the soup, which was as delicious as before. Perhaps it was the influence of forgetfulness that made Mu Yun a little paranoid now. He tried hard to remember things and everything he could think of, for fear of forgetting again.
He began to think about the past, the times when he was with Li Fenglan. For example, the Changfeng Tower site, or the small town in front of Tongguan. I remember that he hugged Li Fenglan for the first time in that small town. No, it was Chen Wu who hugged him. It should have been the second time for him... No, it was also Chen Wu who hugged him the second time.
He thought again of Chen Wu smelling Li Fenglan's mouth, and then being kicked by her on the face. It was really painful at that time.
Thinking of this, he smiled unconsciously. The taste on her mouth was very good, with the aroma of wine and a vague medicinal aroma, just like what she smelled now.
Wait, are you hearing about it now?
He suddenly stopped eating and stared blankly at the food in front of him. Then he was stunned... "What did I just... think of?"
Wait, wait, I seem to have forgotten something very important, what is it? I just thought of it, why did I forget it?
Chen Wu suddenly said anxiously: "Did you think of something just now?!"
"Yes, I did think of something."
"I feel it! It's very important! You are
Didn't you forget? Think about it again! "
Mu Yun knocked on his head, with a somewhat painful expression on his face, and murmured to himself: "I did think of something... What happened? Why did I forget it again?"
Chenwu said loudly: "I forgot too! When you were thinking about that just now, I couldn't help but think about it! But I am just like you! I also forgot! Let's think about it. You thought about Changfeng Tower first, and then you thought about it. Um, what's the name of that town?"
"Yes, this is it...then what? I thought you hugged her twice."
"Yes, she kicked us the first time!"
"No, she didn't kick us the first time, she pinched us the first time."
"Oh, yes, yes...then why did you kick us?"
"Because you smelled it on her mouth."
"Yes! That's it! That's what you just thought of!"
"Then what?"
"Yeah...then what?"
The two fell into a long silence, both trying to think back. At this time, they heard their only son "Gulu" again. Mu Yun unconsciously picked up the spoon and wanted to take a sip of the soup, but as soon as the soup reached his mouth, he remembered!
"Yes! This is it!" Chenwu shouted happily.
Mu Yun felt that his hands were shaking, so much that he couldn't hold the spoon.
"There is... medicine in the soup..."
Chen Wu's voice also became a little trembling: "This medicine is the same as what we smelled! What is it called... it's called... it's called..."
"Sad."
"Yes! That's it! The medicine that makes people stupid!"
"So, we have taken this medicine many times during this period without knowing it?"
"No wonder! No wonder you always forget things!"
"But why? If we become stupid, what good will it do to them? Aren't we Si Ye? Aren't we the sons of the big leader? Does he want us to become stupid?"
"Mu Yun, there is only one possibility."
Mu Yun nodded and smiled, feeling as if he could see the sun through clouds.
"Chenwu, let's go."
"Well, fight out!"
