Chapter 78
It was about to rain, but she was riding very slowly. People kept speeding up and passing her on the road.She was just as slow as a madman, looking for her lost soul in this world.

You can go back to the restaurant if you go a few dozen miles further. Nearing a mountain, Gou Yue changed her direction and walked up the mountain road.

The mountain road was narrow, and she didn't know who she was competing with, insisting on walking on such a narrow path.

In the end, the horse was so tired that it refused to take another step forward.

The mountain breeze is cool and cool, and the moon is wandering around wildly.

It seems that the more uninhabited the land is, the more it should be her destination.

Looking at the dried blood on her hands, she remembered that she had just had murderous intentions, but the murderous intentions were fleeting and did not stay for long.Whether she wanted to kill him or his brother, Mo Du, she couldn't come to a conclusion for the moment.

Gou Yue knows how to use the back of a knife to deal with others, but when Yin Hen confronts Qin Suo, she actually lets Yin Hen get stained with his blood.

That was the child who had been galloping with her on the grassland since she was a child.

The day he appeared in front of her was also the day she was forgiven.

She hated King Chu for forcing Yan Boya to kill her mother, and she desperately wanted to kill the most noble man on the grassland.

It was said that the Lord of the Royal Court was a child protected by the gods. Who dared to take his life? A little seven-year-old girl took a dagger and wanted to stab him in the heart to avenge her mother.

Naturally, he failed.

The King of Chu wanted to kill Gou Yue, so Mo Du interceded for her. Hu Jie was willing to cut off his arm and personally took the amputated arm to the King of Chu to apologize, but he still refused to forgive. Just when he ordered her to be killed, three-year-old Qin Suo ran out.

He told the King of Chu a dream, saying that Nan told him that he already had his own Ban Nan. Usually Chu people have a Nan to accompany them, but the king's youngest son is the most noble child of the royal family. God protects the master of the grassland, and also To protect this ungrown child, he gave the royal court's youngest son Bannan.

She was the child of a Yan man and a Chu man. Gou Yue remembered that he forgave her with hesitation and told her to serve Qinsuo loyally.

She didn't want to stay in the tent with the little prince with a runny nose. She wanted to practice martial arts and learn how to ride a horse.

Later, they did become masters together.

He has hatred, and she has hatred.

Gou Yue didn't like the name of her sword, but Zhao Bufan said that this sword should be called Duan Feng.

A good knife that can cut iron like clay is actually called Duan Feng.

Sure enough, in Yunshan, she fought to the death and broke the edge completely.

Gouyue squatted on a stone in the mountain stream. The rain was about to come, and there was no one in the mountain. The stream flowed very fast. It is common for mountains to have rising water beside streams.

This place is dangerous now.

She also knew it in her heart.

But Gou Yue refused to go up the mountain road and stayed here.

It took her a while to figure out why she didn't want to go back.

She was disturbed by the loss of her soul, but she didn't want Wen Yuanzhi to notice something was wrong from her expression.

Wen Yuanzhi must know why Zhenhun is so important to her.

It was definitely not a coincidence that Yaotai took her to see Zhenhun. She disappeared without a trace soon after. Either she had escaped or was eliminated by Wen Yuan's plan.

The more she cares about Zhenhun, the easier it may be for him to see that she has already recovered her memory.

Should I tell him?
Or should you listen to the master and no one should believe it?
Gou Yue washed the blood on her hands by the water. The blood dried, and the blood scabs made her palms tremble.

It's funny to say that in the past, she worked for Mo Du and killed so many people, and she never questioned it once. Now whenever she thinks about killing, an emotion that she doesn't know is excitement or fear mixed with guilt will overwhelm her body, making her He became less like himself.

She washed herself by the water until the end, only to feel more and more blood on her hands.

Looking up again, what was flowing down the stream was not clear water, but thick blood.

The Yanchu soldiers fell in the grass, and the blood flowing out was like an endless stream.

She shouldn't be weak, Mo Du said, she was born to be a killer, a general, and an executioner.

And those who can take away people's lives should not be afraid of blood.

It was getting darker.

Showers are coming.

Gou Yue hit the water surface, shattering his own reflection mercilessly, as if he never wanted to look at himself again.

Another punch, and she hit it hard into the gravel, one punch after another. She couldn't count how many times she punched the bottom of the water.

Till the water drops her blood.

Her fists were dripping with blood.

She finally asked herself in a low voice, why am I still alive?
They were all dead, but she was still alive.

Just when she was about to self-destruct, someone called from behind her, "Gouyue?"

Turning around, he saw Wen Yuanzhi.

She hurriedly turned her face away and walked towards another mountain road, as if she hadn't seen anything.

Wen Yuanzhi saw that there was blood all over the stone and hurriedly rushed up. He asked people all the way if they had seen her. When he finally found her, he saw her from a distance punching the broken stone with her fists at the junction of the stone and the water. stone.

He said, "Don't walk so fast, you know, I can't catch up with you."

Gou Yue stopped and cold rain fell on her head.

Finally it rained.

The rain fell on the dull sky, but it made people breathe a sigh of relief, as if a hole in the tightly woven fishing net had been broken, and fish were swarming in all directions.

"Turn around and ask me to take a look."

Gou Yue remained motionless.

He walked forward and came to her, only to see that her face was full of tears.

A pair of eyes that were so bright before now have a lot of sadness in them.

"Gouyue..." He choked when he called her name. The tip of his nose was sore. He lowered his eyes and saw the blood on her hand flowing along her fingers.

The rain above their heads fell faster and faster, making their hair and clothes all wet.

After returning from the Ordinary Hall, until Zhenhun appeared, something was wrong with Gou Yue. Although she would be unhappy in the past, she was always happy a lot, but now, since the day he came, she didn't show much smile.

Wen Yuanzhi had some guesses in his mind, but he couldn't tell the truth after all.

If she wanted to tell him, she would.

She didn't want to talk to him, preferring to hide her pain.

When the rain fell, the mountains and fields were wet. He stretched out his hand to wipe her tears, but he could never wipe away the wetness on her face.

The raindrops were hitting the mountains, forests, and rocks. It was like the sound of war drums and the clatter of war horses. He seemed to hear thousands of troops approaching.

Was it the same sound that fell in her ears?
He lowered his head slightly and pressed his forehead against hers, then covered her ears, as if all her worries disappeared.

Unexpectedly, the moment he approached, Gou Yue burst into tears.

He pressed his forehead against hers and heard the sad cry coming from deep inside her body, and suddenly felt that she was broken into pieces.

He worked so hard to put her back together, turning her into a new little girl who could laugh, act coquettishly, meddle in other people's business, and get up when she saw injustice on the road.

In just a few months, she didn't know what she had suffered.

He closed his eyes and stayed with her in the heavy rain.

The mountain wind mixed with the rain.

Seeing her walking so far and then circling back to the same place again, suffering all the torture of life and death, Wen Yuanzhi's heart was riddled with holes.

He wanted to tell her, I am willing to walk with you so that you will no longer be alone.

If only she just hooked up with the moon, then she would silently accept all his love.

Gou Yue raised her head and clung to his shoulders, coveting the little warmth between his lips and teeth.It stopped after just a light kiss.

She couldn't express her grievances to him. It would have been better if he was not Wen Yuanzhi. He had never seen her past and had nothing to do with her.

The words couldn't be uttered but turned into tears, and when he opened his mouth, he wanted to vent his unwillingness and resentment.

He put his hand on her back and patted her gently, as if she was still a naive child who made small mistakes and caused trouble that was not worth mentioning.

Wen Yuanzhi pulled her under a stone wall to take shelter from the rain. There was a protrusion there, just like half of an umbrella, with grass half a person's height on the side.

He took her hand and said, "I'm injured and I want to go home."

"Yeah." She said softly.

"This is a pill to drive away the cold. You have lost so much blood and the mountain rain is cold, so be careful if you get cold." He stuffed the pill into her mouth.

She bit it between her lips and teeth, but did not swallow it.

He said, "Why, are you afraid of being poisoned?"

She leaned forward to kiss him, pressing him between the stone walls, and the bitter taste of the pills spread in their mouths.Gou Yue's hands went deep along his rain-wet sleeves and touched his shoulders. He noticed her thoughts and said hurriedly, "No, it can't be done here."

She backed away a little and told him to take a breath, "There won't be anyone, I can hear you."

A thread in his mind suddenly snapped. Is there any way to refuse her?He never can.

Afraid that the stone wall would scratch her back, he placed a hand on her lower back.

After the rain stopped, the two of them calmed down their breathing.

Gou Yue put on her clothes and said, "I panicked for a moment because I couldn't complete this small task and was afraid that the master would blame me."

Wen Yuanzhi didn't say anything else, he tore off a piece of cloth and temporarily wrapped her hand.

The horse that Gou Yue came out with was still tied up in the mountain. She asked, "Did you see my horse and guess that I was in the mountain?"

Wen Yuanzhi asked her to get on the horse first, and then he got up, "I drew a portrait of you and asked you along the way. At that time, I thought you would come back and you should be near us, so I went out to look for you."

it's getting dark.

Gou Yue realized that this was not the way back.

"Ayuan, where are you taking me?"

"Get weapons."

The blacksmith sat at the door for a while and was about to go in.

I saw two guests arriving.

Outside the shop, there was a flag fluttering in the night wind. It was washed white and it could be seen that it had been there for a long time.

It says "Two Sons of Blacksmith".

Lifting the curtain and going in, there was a blacksmith wearing a cowhide vest. He held a long knife under his thick arm and dipped it into the water. Suddenly, hot air flew out with a puff.

The waiter at the door led Wen Yuanzhi and Gou Yue around the man and walked inside.

There is actually a private room inside.

At first glance, the furnishings showed that it was a woman's wing, and the crystal lamp placed beside the bed made Gou Yue think it was a woman's bedroom.

"What did you bring me here for?" Gou Yue was confused.

He said, "I was supposed to bring you here to get weapons tonight, but you are missing a handy weapon."

Since Duan Feng disappeared, none of the weapons in her hand could be held for long.

He took her to sit down and said, "Wait a moment."

"Why, the master is not here?"

"Yes, we came in a hurry. I originally made an appointment with the owner here to come later, but now it's early."

Not long after it was over, I heard someone knocking on the door.

After receiving the consent, a woman wearing a dark green skirt walked in with a peach blossom on her forehead.

The Jingui woman is the one who least likes to apply powder among the women in Jiangnan. She has no rouge or lipstick except for the flower patch on her forehead. Her face is like a peeled egg with hibiscus emerging from the clear water.

Wen Yuan said, "This is the Peach Blossom Lady, the best craftsman in the Golden Chamber who is good at making weapons."

She stepped forward and saluted, "I have met these two noble men."

He took out a box from behind the bedside, and after opening it, it was filled with various weapons.

After searching for a while, she handed a dagger to Wen Yuanzhi, "Here, this is it."

Gou Yue took the dagger and asked, "What is this sword called?"

Peach Blossom Lady said, "Changning."

Gou Yue smiled, "The dagger is called Changning?"

She said, "I didn't choose the name, it was your friend."

Wen Yuanzhi nodded, "I took it."

"Why is it called Changning?"

The broken edge was broken that day. Later, he turned back and found that there was another mystery hidden in the broken edge. There was also a piece of material for making a weapon.

There are constant breaks, and no one will notice.

It was just that the situation was urgent and she probably didn't have time to observe Duan Feng.

No one would have thought that he would find her broken sword and forge a Changning sword.

Zhao Bufan is a far-sighted person. Perhaps on the day of forging, he thought that it was easy to break if it was too strong. Like her temperament, this broken edge would definitely break one day.

However, Duanfeng can regenerate and become Changning.

He understood what Zhao Bufan meant and told her to cut off her sharp edge and return to her original state.

"Three streets away from here, there is Changningfang. It is said that the wine there is mellow. When I came to play swordsman, I borrowed the name of Changningfang."

Gou Yue snorted, "No wonder it's called Changning. If the long street where drinks are sold is called Turtle, then my sword must be called Turtle Sword."

He couldn't help laughing, "When will I be named a turtle?"

Gou Yue thanked the woman.

She looked at Gou Yue for a long time, "Girl, there is no need to thank you, just use this weapon properly."

Gou Yue unsheathed the sword. For some reason, she always felt familiar, as if she was holding a broken edge.

"The moonlight is just right, why not go have a drink?" he said.

Gou Yue said, "Let's find a place to eat by the way. I'm hungry, and how about you."

"Same feeling."

Unfortunately, restaurants often don’t have delicious food. It seems that the more delicious the food, the less flavorful the wine will be.

She told him to sit down and wait.

Wen Yuanzhi stood up to follow, and she said, "I'll come as soon as I go."

After saying that, he left.

At this time, it was already too late to visit the blacksmith. There were only two or three people drinking in the wine shop, and he was the only one sitting alone.

He waited a long time.

Gou Yue smiled and said, "I'm back."

Wen Yuanzhi's eyes lit up.

"where did you go?"

She lowered her voice, "Didn't you just say that the food here is not good?" She added, "The wine is pretty good."

I opened the paper package, and inside the first package was a chicken with lotus leaves.

When I opened it, the fragrance filled my nostrils.

The second paper bag contained fried fish, wrapped in paper and extremely crispy.

"See if it tastes good or not."

Wen Yuanzhi picked up a piece and said, "It's really good."

Gou Yue stretched out her hand and said, "Show me the picture you drew."

"what?"

"Don't pretend to be stupid. Didn't you say you drew a picture of me and asked people about it?"

He had no choice but to take it out and said, "Take it."

Gou Yue opened the portrait and couldn't stop laughing, "Did you remember the wrong person when you drew it? I am so beautiful?"

Wen Yuanzhi asked, "If my drawing is not accurate, how can others recognize you and give me directions?"

She smiled and picked up a piece of fried fish. She wondered if the seasonings were not mixed thoroughly when dipping it into the batter. It was too salty. She picked up another piece, but it was still too salty to swallow.

"Is the fried fish delicious?" Gou Yue asked.

He picked up another piece and said, "It tastes just right."

She didn't respond and nodded slightly, as if she was looking at his face and thinking about something, and then thought of what Yao Er said.

Then she suddenly smiled and said, "Although the food outside is delicious, it is not very clean. Do you know that Yao'er is very good at cooking? She must have thought that I would have nothing to eat when I came back, so she was making delicious food for me. , let’s go back and eat.”

After that, he drank all the wine in the wine cup on the table, "Let's go, it's too late to go back, she will be worried."
