Chapter 650 Departure to Langzhong
Xi Yu approached Zhao Yun mysteriously and said in a low voice: "General Zhao, there is something unusual in the basement of the temple."
When Zhao Yun heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and asked: "Oh? Prime Minister. What is going on?"
"That basement holds some unknown secrets and treasures."
When Zhao Yun heard this, he felt a sense of curiosity in his heart, but he remained calm on his face and just nodded slightly to express his knowledge.
Xi Yu then said: "Let the other soldiers find a place to live outside, and you will live here."
Zhao Yun nodded and responded: "Okay, Prime Minister, my subordinates understand."
Then, he turned around and went out, ready to explain the situation to the soldiers.
Zhao Yun came to the soldiers with a serious and solemn expression. He cleared his throat and said loudly: "Brothers, the Prime Minister has ordered that you all go outside to find a place to live. I will stay in this temple."
The soldiers nodded and said, "Yes, general!"
Zhao Yun watched the soldiers leave in an orderly manner, and couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion in his heart.
He knew that these soldiers were Xi Yu's most loyal partners and would follow Xi Yu's footsteps no matter where they were.
Haishe was sitting in the room, looking a little sad. She looked at Shuang'er and said softly: "Shuang'er, since we have met Xi Yu, but he doesn't take us in, let's go."
Shuang'er heard this, with a trace of confusion and reluctance on her face. She couldn't help but ask, "Then where should we go next?"
Haishe shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile: "I don't know, but I can't just stay here shamelessly."
When she said this, a trace of despair and helplessness flashed in her eyes.
Shuang'er bit her lip, with tears flashing in her eyes. She gently held Haishe's hand and said with sobs, "But, where can we go? This is a shelter after all..."
Haishe sighed, patted Shuang'er's hand gently, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, there is no end to the road, we will always find a place to go."
After saying that, she stood up and looked firmly into the distance, as if looking for the direction of the future.
Haishe took a deep breath and walked to Tuobayu with some heavy steps.
She looked a little lonely and said softly: "Master Tuoba, I'm here to say goodbye to you. We are leaving."
Tuobayu was startled for a moment, then understood what she meant, looked at her and said slowly: "Oh? I'm leaving now."
Haishe nodded slightly and then said: "Yes, since we have come out, we will not go back to the Immortal Monument anymore. As for where to go, let's talk about it later." There was a hint of helplessness and confusion on her face.
Tuobayu smiled secretly in her heart. Of course she understood what Haishe meant and knew that she wanted to complain to herself that Xiyu didn't take them in.
"Well, I wish you a safe journey."
Haishe bit his lip gently, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, then turned and left. His back looked a bit desolate.
Tuobayu couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion in his heart when he looked at her leaving figure.
Haishe took Shuang'er's hand and slowly walked towards the Zen room where the old monk was. When they saw the old monk, Haishe had a touch of sadness on his face and said softly: "Master, we have come to say goodbye to you."
The old monk raised his head, a trace of exhaustion flashed in his eyes. His face was indeed much more haggard than the previous few days.
He nodded slightly and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Oh, you have to leave now."
Haishe nodded slightly, with a trace of reluctance in his eyes, and said, "Yes, Master, we have decided to leave."
Haishe bit his lip, his eyes full of apology, and said, "Master, thank you for taking care of me during this time."
The old monk smiled slightly, with a hint of gentleness flashing in his eyes, and said: "You're welcome, everything is fate, go ahead and be careful along the way."
Haishe and Shuang'er bowed deeply to the old monk, then turned around and left slowly.
The old monk looked at their departing figures, with a flash of loneliness and melancholy in his eyes.
Night shrouded the earth, and Xi Yu stood in an open space with a serious and determined expression.
He looked at Ouyang Linlin with sharp eyes. After everyone arrived, he cleared his throat.
Everyone immediately fell silent and looked at Xi Yu with focused expressions.
Xi Yu looked around at the crowd and then said: "Tomorrow, we are going to Langzhong." There was a kind of determination in his eyes.
When everyone heard the words, there was some confusion on their faces, but they all listened quietly.
Xi Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and continued: "I want to go to Langzhong to find someone. This is very important to us!"
His voice was steady and powerful, as if it carried an unquestionable power.
Tuobayu couldn't help but ask: "General, who are we looking for?"
Xi Yu glanced at her and said slowly: "No need to ask more questions now."
Tuobayu knew that since Xi Yu had made a decision, he must have his reasons, and they just had to follow his footsteps.
Xi Yu nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse and rest while he prepared for tomorrow's trip.
In the early morning of the next day, the sun shone on the earth, and Xi Yu heroically held the horse, preparing to get on the horse and set off.
Tuobayu hurried over, with an eager look on his face, and shouted: "Husband, wait for me, I hope to follow you."
Xiyu frowned, turned his head to look at Tuoba Yu, and said firmly: "It's really not necessary. The journey is difficult. You should stay here."
Tuoba Yu widened his eyes, unwillingly, and said quickly: "No, I will go crazy if I stay here! I can't stay here for a moment."
Her face was full of stubbornness.
Xiyu looked at her like this, sighed helplessly, hesitated for a moment and said: "Okay, then you follow, but everything on the road must be under my command."
Tuoba Yu immediately showed a happy face, nodded repeatedly, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I will listen to you, just let me follow." Her eyes were full of excitement and expectation.
Xiyu shook his head helplessly, then squeezed the horse's belly, and took Tuoba Yu on the journey to Langzhong together.
Along the way, Tuoba Yu couldn't help but be curious. She rode close to Xi Yu, tilted her head and looked at him, and asked with a puzzled look: "Husband, who are you going to find?"
Xi Yu looked straight ahead, his face calm, and said lightly: "Find a learned person."
Tuoba Yu was stunned for a moment, and wanted to ask more details, but seeing Xi Yu's unwillingness to say more, she had to curl her lips, shrugged and said: "Okay, then I won't ask anymore."
There was a trace of helplessness on her face, but she didn't hesitate anymore, and drove the horse silently to follow Xi Yu.
In the following journey, although Tuoba Yu was still a little curious, she really didn't continue to ask.
Occasionally, she would secretly glance at Xi Yu, with a thoughtful look in her eyes, as if she was secretly guessing who the learned person would be.
Xi Yu, on the other hand, remained calm and composed, with a stern face and a firm gaze on the road ahead, as if he only wanted to reach the destination as soon as possible and find that person.
The sun shone on him, making his figure more upright and resolute.
The two rode forward in silence, the sound of horse hooves clattering, raising a small cloud of dust, which was particularly clear on this quiet road.
As night fell, Hai She and Shuang'er walked into a slightly simple inn.
Hai She's face was a little tired and confused, and she slowly sat down on a chair.
Shuang'er stood aside obediently, looking at Hai She with some confusion.
Haishe sighed softly, looked ahead with a somewhat empty look in his eyes, and said leisurely: "Shuang'er, why don't we go to the temple to become nuns?"
When Shuang'er heard this, her eyes widened, her face full of astonishment, and she cried out: "Madam, how could you have such an idea!"
Haishe turned around and looked at Shuang'er, with a bitter smile on his face, and said softly: "I have been in the temple for this period of time, and I suddenly feel that maybe that kind of life is the most suitable for me."
A trace of confusion and melancholy flashed in her eyes.
Shuang'er hurriedly walked to Haishe, grabbed her hand, and said anxiously: "Madam, don't talk nonsense, we still have a lot of things to do, how can we become nuns like this?" Her face was full of anxiety and worry.
Haishe's face was full of pain, she looked ahead with a dull look, and muttered to herself: "Without Shididu, I really can't live at all..."
Tears rolled in her eyes, and they might fall at any time.
Shuang'er looked at Haishe distressedly and comforted him softly: "Madam, don't be like this. I know you are very sad now, but time will heal everything."
Haishe turned his head and looked at Shuang'er with tears in his eyes, and said with a choked voice: "Really? I feel my heart is about to break."
Shuang'er nodded vigorously and said firmly: "Yes, madam. You must believe that as time goes by, you will slowly get rid of the sadness. Although it is painful now, everything will be fine."
Haishe looked at Shuang'er silently. After a long time, he sighed softly and nodded slightly: "Okay, maybe you are right. I hope time can really make me get better slowly."
Her eyes still carried deep sadness, but there seemed to be a little more expectation for the future.
Shuang'er looked at Haishe and nodded slightly, feeling a little relieved, and then said: "Madam, you see, life is still long, and there are still many wonderful things waiting for us. Lord Shididu certainly doesn't want to see you depressed like this."
Haishe bit his lip, but couldn't help but let his tears fall.
"But I'm really confused now. My heart hurts so much when I think of him."
"Madam, I understand your pain, but we can't be trapped in the past. We have to look forward and try to find other good things in life. Maybe one day, when you look back, you will find that this pain has gradually faded."
"Shuang'er, you are right. I can't go on like this. I have to try to be strong."
Shuang'er smiled with relief.
"Yes, Madam, you can do it. No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, Shuang'er will always be with you."
Haishe held Shuang'er's hand tightly, with a touch of emotion in his eyes.
"Thank you, Shuang'er, I'm glad you're with me all the time."
The two of them leaned against each other, warming each other in the quiet night.
Hai She and Shuang'er were immersed in their emotions, and suddenly, Shuang'er seemed to notice something strange. She frowned and looked at the window vigilantly.
"Madam, something seems to be wrong."
Before Haishe had time to react, he saw a dark figure quietly coming to the window.
Shuang'er's eyes widened in horror, and just as he was about to speak out, he saw the man quickly piercing the window paper.
"Who!" Haishe exclaimed, with a look of horror on his face.
But it was too late, a strange smell began to pour in from the hole.
Shuang'er covered his mouth and nose, his face full of panic.
"No, ma'am, this smells weird!"
Haishe also quickly covered her mouth, but the smell still penetrated their bodies pervasively.
They tried to get up and escape, but their bodies gradually became limp and weak.
Haishe's eyes began to become blurry, and she shook her body, trying to stay awake.
"This...what the hell is going on..."
The twins were also swaying, and her face was pale.
"Madam...I...I'm so dizzy..."
Soon, the two of them could no longer hold on, and slowly collapsed to the ground, falling into coma, and the room became dead silent.
I don't know how long it took, but Haishe woke up. She felt that her head was extremely dizzy and her eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
She struggled to open her eyes, her eyes still a little confused, looking at the unfamiliar environment around her, and murmured: "Where...where is this?"
She struggled to sit up, and then she realized that Shuang'er was still lying quietly beside her. She quickly crawled to Shuang'er and shook her gently, her voice full of anxiety and worry: "Shuang'er, Shuang'er, wake up quickly."
Shuang'er frowned, let out a cry, and finally slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were full of fear and confusion.
"Madam, we...what happened to us?"
Haishe shook his head, with a solemn look on his face: "I don't know either, I just remember someone blowing air into the house outside the window, and then we passed out."
As she spoke, she looked around cautiously.
Shuang'er's face was still pale. She held Heshe's hand tightly and her voice trembled: "Madam, this is too scary. Who brought us here?"
Haishe bit his lip, thought for a moment and then said: "No matter who it is, we must find a way to escape. We can't just sit back and wait for death."
Her eyes gradually lit up with determination, and Shuang'er nodded vigorously.
The two supported each other and began to carefully explore this strange place.
Shuang'er frowned, her face full of pain, she covered her body, her voice trembled.
"Madam... I suddenly felt very uncomfortable, and my body was extremely sore... I... was I ruined by that man..."
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, his eyes filled with fear and helplessness.
When Haishe heard this, her heart tightened. She felt her body carefully and her face instantly turned pale.
"I...I feel the same way...Shuang'er, your guess...is probably correct..."
Haishe's lips trembled, and the tears in his eyes flowed uncontrollably.
"How could this happen...how could this happen..." Shuang'er couldn't help crying, and his body was shaking slightly.
Haishe bit her lip, her face filled with grief and anger. She hugged Shuang'er and choked, "It's all my fault... It's all my fault for not protecting you..."
"Madam...it's not your fault..." Shuang'er sobbed, "It's just that we were so unlucky...to encounter such a thing..."
The two hugged each other tightly and burst into tears. Haishe's face was stained with tears, and his expression was sad and desperate.
"How could we encounter such humiliation..."
Shuang'er also burst into tears.
"Madam...what should we do in the future..."
Their cries echoed in this silent space, filled with endless pain and sorrow.
Just as the master and servant were holding each other's arms and crying, there was suddenly a sound of slight footsteps. Haishe and Shuang'er stopped crying in horror and looked towards the direction of the sound with tearful eyes.
I saw a few tall masked men slowly walking over.
They exude a chilling aura.
One of the masked men stood in front of them and said in a low and cold voice: "Just stay here and don't try to escape or make any small moves, otherwise the consequences will be very serious and you can't afford it!" His There was a fierce light in his eyes.
Haishe's eyes widened in horror, his body shrank back unconsciously, and his voice trembled as he said, "You...who are you? Why did you catch us here?"
Shuang'er was also full of fear, clutching the corner of Haishe's clothes tightly, his teeth chattering.
The masked man snorted coldly and did not answer Haishe's words. He just glared at them viciously, then turned around and left with the other masked men.
Only Haishe and Shuang'er were left there, full of fear and confusion, not knowing what terrible fate awaited them.
After the masked men left, Haishe and Shuang'er hugged each other tightly, their bodies still shaking uncontrollably.
Haishe's face was full of tears, and her eyes were full of fear and confusion. She bit her lip and lowered her voice and said to Shuang'er: "Shuang'er, what should we do? These people look so fierce. We can really escape." ?"
Shuang'er tried to calm himself down.
"Madam, no matter what, we can't sit still and wait for death. We must find a way."
The two were silent for a while. Haishe seemed to have thought of something, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Shuang'er, if they really want to harm us, I will not let them succeed even if I risk my life."
"Madam, don't say that. We will definitely find a way. We will definitely do it."
Time passed by minute by minute, and every moment seemed particularly long to them.
Haishe looked in the direction where the masked man left from time to time, his heart full of anxiety and uneasiness.
Shuang'er racked her brains to think of a countermeasure, but she couldn't think of any good solution for a while. (End of this chapter)
