Onmyoji's Secret

Chapter 396
That night, because it was getting late, we, the master and apprentice, stayed at Cai's house and planned to return to Qingcheng Mountain the next day, and then went to Mengding Mountain after clarifying the specific situation.

I was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, my mind was a little messy.He thought about Xia Yuanyang's affairs for a while, and the Yun family for a while, and finally couldn't fall asleep, so he got up from the bed and prepared to go outside to get some air.

Walking out of the door, the corridor was silent, and the others had probably already fallen into a wonderful dreamland.I tiptoed down the stairs. This is a villa of the Cai family in Dujiangyan. Outside the house is a rather large garden, and there is even a small swimming pool in the corner, which is really luxurious.

When I walked downstairs, I was surprised to find that the door of the villa had been opened, and the bright moonlight came in from outside.

I was a little puzzled in my heart, and walked quietly to the door to see who was outside.

My body moved slightly, and I walked out of the room a few steps, and a faint crying sound came from not far away, which sounded tear-jerking.

I frowned slightly, and then Moonlight saw a figure of a woman squatting beside the swimming pool, her head was buried in her knees, she let out bursts of sobbing, and her body was still trembling slightly.

"Cai Yawen."

I pursed my lips and walked forward.

"Gone...you all left. I was left alone. I was the only woman left in the Cai family in the past... Do you know? Those white-eyed wolves who eat inside and outside are already plotting to murder me, and then seize Everything about our Cai family. Huh... I killed Lao Song with my own hands today, but I still can't stop them. The sun of the sky... woo... I am so tired, I really want to let go of all this, I just want to be an ordinary woman..."

Hearing the weeping sound in my ears, a pity welled up in my heart.I never thought that Cai Yawen, who has always been cold and strong, would have such a weak side. Her parents, brother, sister-in-law and all members of the family all died in this disaster. As the eldest lady who has made great efforts to provoke the Cai family's burden, perhaps only she can feel the pressure and pain clearly in her heart.It's just that with her strong personality, she buried all the pain in her heart, and still put on that cold mask in front of me and her subordinates.

I sighed softly and stepped forward to comfort her.

But before she got close, she heard her talking to herself again: "Do you know, he came back from Yunnan, and he brought back that woman. Hehe, I heard that he went to Yunnan this time to save her, senior sister and junior brother, Hehehe, what a match made in heaven... Maybe if I had been more ruthless and let Lao Wu and the others delay for a while, the ending now might be another one."

"You often say that my temper is the same as you were when you were young. You said that if I were a man, I might be able to lead the Cai family farther. But you don't know, my cruelty is only forced out by you. At the age of eight, you forced me to kill my favorite dog. At the age of ten, you took me into the ancient tomb and asked me to remove things from the corpse with my own hands. At the age of 12, you held my hand and killed The betrayer of the family... Hehehe, do you know the fear when I watched the blood-stained knife being drawn out of my body? I hate these things. For you, I used a mask to disguise myself and make myself cold-blooded. But I am also just a woman, what I like is a soft doll, not a cold sharp knife. What I long for is a warm bed, not a gloomy ancient tomb! We traveled all over the world together, thinking that one day, he would marry me on a tall horse..."

Cai Yawen's shoulders moved more and more violently, and her bare feet stretched into the swimming pool, causing ripples and trembling circles, just like her mood at the moment.

"I'm so tired, I really want to follow him no matter what...but... now he has her..."

I felt uncomfortable when I heard it, and wanted to say something, but I opened my mouth but couldn't make a sound for a long time.

The bright moonlight stretched my shadow long, and gradually, it overlapped with hers.

Whoa!
Water splashed everywhere, Cai Yawen turned around abruptly, she raised her head and looked at me blankly.

The moonlight was like water, shining softly on her face.

There was a touch of melancholy on the delicate facial features, the originally cold eyes became blurred with tears, the skin exposed under the pajamas was as white as frost and snow, and there was a seductive luster on the thin lips.At this moment, what was in front of me was clearly a woman who was so weak that it made people feel distressed, not the cold Miss Cai family in the daytime.

I swallowed, my face turned red, and I stammered, "That...I..."

Cai Yawen reached out to wipe away the tears from her eyes, her eyes became serious again.

"When did you come here? Don't you know that it's impolite to eavesdrop on what others are saying?" Cai Yawen said coldly, as if the woman who was squatting by the pool crying just now was not her.

I bit my lip and said softly: "Miss Cai, I'm sorry, I just..."

"Miss Cai?" Cai Yawen's face became colder, and there seemed to be a kind of flame burning in her eyes.

The corners of my mouth twitched slightly, and I said in a low voice, "Ya...Yawen, I'm sorry. I...I understand your feelings very well. I also feel very heartbroken for what happened to you."

"Hehe...understand me?"

Cai Yawen's voice was as cold as ice. She walked towards me step by step with bare feet, tears dripping from her cheeks, and the shadow behind her became darker and darker.

"Understand me? Why do you understand me? You are the proud son of heaven, you are a disciple of Taoist real people. You have parents who love you, you have family members to accompany you, and you have the best childhood! And me? I have nothing! I Being raised as a machine since I was a child, my childhood was full of darkness. My favorite father took me to rob graves, take me to kill people, and take me to experience all the darkness! Even so, they all died! All I was killed by that damn bastard! You know spells and martial arts, and you are accompanied by the legendary real dragon. But I dare not even close my eyes when I sleep, afraid that someone will cut me off in my dream head."

"Hehe...heartache? You can be with the one you love, but what about me? I can only stand aside, look at them, and let my heart break into pieces!"

Cai Yawen burst into tears and kept yelling at me with a hoarse voice that made people feel distressed.

My throat was choked up, and I couldn't speak, watching her walk to my side step by step.

With a cold hand on my face, she sobbed: "You know what? I really want to kill her, go in with a knife, and then she disappears in front of me forever. What I want, I don't want to give it to you." other people……"

I trembled and looked at the woman in front of me with some horror.

Cai Yawen smiled sweetly. The mist at night drifted like a veil covering her face. Her open red lips looked like the most beautiful roses, and there was a faint charm in her curved eyes.

"Why, does your heart hurt? Even your body froze."

She leaned on my chest and hugged me behind her hands.

Tears soaked my clothes.

I bowed my head, and a wisp of fragrance came into my nose, a very special smell, like a rose, a rose with thorns.

"I...I love her..."

I murmured in a low voice, wanting to push her away, but seeing her appearance, I couldn't bear it.

"I know."

The voice was still cold, with an inexplicable flavor: "The way you look at her...I understand..."

The night became more and more bleak, a gust of wind blew from outside the courtyard, sending chills down the spine.

The woman in my arms trembled, I sighed, reached out and patted her on the shoulder, and said, "It's getting late, go back and rest."

She raised her head and glanced at me, the tears had stopped, only her eyes were slightly red.

Her expression calmed down again, and she said: "Remember your promise, kill that bastard, and avenge our Cai family."

I froze for a moment, then nodded solemnly, and said solemnly, "This is a man's promise."

A cold feeling spread on my cheeks, I touched the two red marks on my face in astonishment, and looked at her receding back, desolate and lonely.

The moon was obscured by drifting dark clouds.

On the second floor, the window was slowly closed with both hands, and the snow-white clothes were like blooming white lotuses...
