Chapter 3 Zuo Family Yunzhi
Chapter 3 Zuo Family Yunzhi
After the ghost catching incident, Tang Xiaozuo never saw Susu again.Everyone in the sect was talking about Susu being the inner ghost who sent news to the major sects to betray the Tianzhu sect, but Tang Xiaozuo didn't believe it.
"Why don't you believe me?" Protector You walked into the yard and interrupted the chat between Tang Xiaozuo and the maidservants, "The door master said that only the inner ghost will find ways to stay, because she has a purpose to stay here, otherwise it would be normal No one dares to enter the snake's basket."
"But I stayed too. Doesn't the sect master think I'm also an insider?" Tang Xiaozuo said guiltily.
"You are an exception!"
"why?"
"The head of the sect said you look too naive..." The right protector rubbed his chin thoughtfully, "But I always think it's not because of this."
Tang Xiaozuo rolled his eyes towards the sky: "What do you think is the reason?"
Guardian Right thought for a long time, and suddenly slapped his hands: "Maybe it's because the sect master likes you!"
"Hey!" Tang Xiao curled his lips left, "I'd rather believe that I'm stupid."
The right protector seemed to be sure that there was an affair between her and Feng Linran, but he regretted how Feng Linran would fall in love with an ordinary girl like her.
"Girl, you have no femininity at all. You have mediocre looks, mediocre aptitude, and even mediocre body."
Where to look!Tang Xiaozuo put his arms around his chest, puffed out his cheeks and glared at him!
You Hufa deliberately teased her, stretched out his hand, and lifted her bangs on the forehead: "Let me see if lifting your thick hair curtain will make you mature... huh?"
Tang Xiaozuo hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, but it was too late, he stroked her big hand, and her square forehead was completely exposed.
Protector Right was smiling, but suddenly froze his expression.
Tang Xiaozuo dodged in a panic, pulled down his bangs, and ironed them bit by bit with his hands.
The right protector was dazed for a long time before opening his mouth: "Girl, your forehead...why did you hurt?"
There is a scar on her forehead near the hairline, the size of a copper coin.Because the injury was so severe at the beginning, the whole piece of flesh was gone, and the bones were exposed, so it was difficult to scar later.After the new flesh grows, even if the master uses the best medicine, the scar will only become less obtrusive, but it can no longer be eliminated.
She always covered it with thick bangs, otherwise she would feel uncomfortable when she saw it.
"I accidentally fell off the cliff before, and it was hit by a rock." Tang Xiaozuo said sullenly.
There is no girl who does not value her own appearance. If it weren't for the master's wonderful hand Huichun and the enlightenment of her brothers and sisters in the same school, she might have been depressed a long time ago.
The Right Protector seemed a little apologetic, and said embarrassingly, "Forgive me for offending..."
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, Tang Xiaozuo tried to find a topic to calm down: "Guardian You, are you here for something?"
This is the courtyard where several of their maidservants live, and few people come here on weekdays, let alone the guardian.
Originally, it was just a casual question, but I didn't expect that the right protector was really busy: "I'm from the sect master, and I'll drop by to give you a message. Zuo Yunshu helped a lot in repelling several sects this time. Tomorrow The head of the door will go to Mingyue Villa to pay his respects, and he will take you with him."
"En." Tang Xiaozuo responded, then raised his head, "En?" What's the matter with her?
"Hmm, what, huh? Go back and pack a few changes of clothes, and maybe stay in Mingyue Villa for a few days." Guardian You sent her back to the house to pack her things, and left in a hurry.
Bright Moon Villa?
Tang Xiaozuo suddenly remembered that day, the way Zuo Yunshu looked at him was too inexplicable.
Although she was not very willing, Feng Linran took her and set off.
Originally there were two carriages, but one of them was filled with gifts from Feng Linran to thank Mingyue Villa, and it could no longer take people.Tang Xiaozuo originally thought that he was a maidservant and not qualified to ride in a carriage, but when he learned that he could ride in a carriage with Feng Linran, he didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune.
There was a small table in the carriage, and there were some fresh lychees and desserts on the table, which made her eyes almost glued to her eyes.But Feng Linran didn't open her mouth to talk about it, and she didn't dare to reach out to take it, so she could only watch eagerly.
Feng Linran focused on reading a book and ignored her at all.
Tang Xiaozuo was courageous, pressed the book in his hand, and said solemnly: "There is no limit to the sea of learning, and it is right to turn around. Sect Master, don't look at it, let's chat."
Feng Linran raised her beautiful phoenix eyes, glanced at her, and then picked up the book in his hand: "If you want to eat, take it yourself."
Hey, it would have been nice to have said that earlier, it's hard for her to hold back for so long.
She was eating with gusto, when Fenglin Ranzhi seemed to inadvertently ask, "Is the injury on your hand healed?"
Tang Xiaozuo, who was peeling the lychees, was taken aback for a moment, the crystal clear lychees almost rolled to the ground.She silently put down the lychee, raised her tightly bandaged hand, and reported the injury to him seriously: "The wound is about half an inch long and very deep. Because it was covered with dust, it was festered and healed slowly. Don't touch water, don't touch it. Dare to hold things, can't lift heavy things..."
"So that's why you've been lazy and didn't work these days?" Feng Linran glanced at her, "I think you're very good at peeling the fruit."
Tang Xiaozuo pretended not to understand, and handed the freshly peeled lychee to his mouth: "I've peeled the fruit very well, the door master, don't you want to eat one?"
Originally, she was just being courteous, but it was expected that a picky and clean freak like Feng Linran would not really eat the lychee in her hand.Never thought that when he leaned over and opened his thin lips, he actually took the lychee in her hand.
The warm breath lingered on her fingertips for a moment and then left. Seeing the white flesh and vermilion lips, Tang Xiaozuo's heart beat suddenly accelerated.
Feng Linran rolled the pulp into his mouth, and after a while gracefully spit out the core, feeling extremely comfortable: "Peel another one."
This peeling never stopped, the two of you took one piece, and the plate bottomed out after a while.Tang Xiaozuo was satiated, grabbed a corner of the car curtain and wiped the corners of his mouth and hands, leaned in the car and stared at Feng Linran.
It is said that love is born from the heart, if he is a bad person, how can he be so good-looking?
She stared intently, and Feng Linran didn't seem to feel uncomfortable.After reading for a long time, he yawned, and Tang Xiaozuo yawned too.The drowsiness struck, she shook her body, tilted her head and closed her eyes in a daze, and soon fell asleep completely.
I don't know how long it took, and suddenly there was a voice in my ear.
"Xiao Zuo, Xiao Zuo..." She heard someone calling her name in a daze, and she opened her eyes to look, but there was a blur of white in front of her eyes. Even though she tried her best to open her eyes wide, she could only see a vague shadow .
"Who is it, Master?" She endured the dazzling white light and walked forward. The image of the person in front of her was made of water, and it was vague and ever-changing.It was a kind voice, but suddenly it became vicissitudes again.
"Zuoyatou, Zuoyatou..." The voice was different, and the address also changed.
Who is calling her left girl?
Why do you call her the left girl?
She went up to the ball of white light to find out, but the road under her feet suddenly collapsed, revealing a bottomless pit.She lost her body and fell straight down.
Wake up!
It was a dream.
Consciousness slowly withdrawn from the dream and returned to reality, Tang Xiaozuo suddenly discovered something extraordinary.
She, she, she... She actually lay on Feng Linran's lap.
She was so frightened that she quickly straightened up and looked at Feng Linran.
Feng Linran also opened her eyes, her unclear eyes circled around her body a few times, and then threw a long leg in front of her.
"Leg is numb, rub it..."
It was already afternoon when they arrived at Mingyue Villa, Zuo Yunshu waited at the gate of the villa to greet her.
I heard that the old owner's health has not been very good, and he has been shutting himself out for the past few years.Zuo Yunshu, the young owner of the villa, took care of everything inside and outside the villa, so naturally the matter of receiving Feng Linran also fell on him.
Zuo Yunshu first took them to visit the villa, and introduced several well-designed small courtyards a few times.I don't know if it was Tang Xiaozuo's illusion, but she always felt that Zuo Yunshu was watching her secretly.Occasionally cast his gaze over, although it is calm, but there is always a bit of inquiry, so strange.
After visiting the villa, Zuo Yunshu and Feng Linran went to discuss matters elsewhere, and Protector You also went with them.After a while, the housekeeper in the villa came over and said that if she was bored, he could send someone to take her around the villa.
Just now, I took a walk around and looked at the flowers, but I really didn't appreciate them carefully. Anyway, Feng Linran and the others couldn't finish talking about things for a while.
The steward called a servant named A Ke.A Ke's simple and honest appearance makes people feel unguarded, and her temperament is quite similar.
Tang Xiaozuo mentioned the places he hadn't seen enough just now, and asked A Ke to take him there.A Ke nodded and took her to these places.
It was summer, when the vegetation was at its most exuberant, and Tang Xiaozuo admired the scenery here.Akiti said: "There is another courtyard where the gardenias are blooming just right, may Miss Fuling go and have a look?"
Tang Xiaozuo glanced at him: "Then I will trouble you."
A Ke smiled innocently and walked ahead to lead the way.Tang Xiaozuo paused, then followed.
The courtyard he mentioned is in the southeast direction of the villa.And most of the people in Mingyue Villa live in the north courtyard, and this other courtyard seems to be isolated from the outside.
But as A Ke said, several gardenia trees were planted in this yard, with pure white flowers dotted among the leaves, elegant and graceful.
"It's really beautiful." Tang Xiaozuo praised, but her heart suddenly beat so hard that she felt a little uncomfortable.It was obviously extremely elegant, but it gave her a feeling of oppression.She turned around, ignored A Ke, and walked out of the courtyard first.
"Miss Fu Ling," A Ke chased after her, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, why am I not good?" Tang Xiaozuo still had a smile on his face, but his eyes turned cold, "Why do you ask me if I'm fine? Why did you bring me here? Are you testing me? What do you want to know? Who sent you?"
Ever since he offered to bring her to this yard, Tang Xiaozuo always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of the reason.
She asked questions like a cannonball, which made A Ke unable to react in time, and looked at her blankly: "Girl, you, you misunderstood, I just think the flowers here are beautiful, and I want to bring you to watch..."
How could she expect him to tell the truth?
Tang Xiaozuo turned his head and left.
"Miss Fuling, Miss Fuling..." A Ke hurriedly followed her.
Tang Xiaozuo angrily went to find Feng Linran, but the villa was so big that she lost her way, going around in circles, getting more and more chaotic, and finally had to ask A Ke for help: "Which way are you going?"
A Ke wiped off her sweat: "Miss Fuling, come with me, I will take you to find the master of Fengmen."
"Ah."
A Ke led her through a garden and towards a rockery.
"Miss Fuling, let's go through the middle of the rockery, so we can save some detours."
Tang Xiaozuo nodded in response.
She also walked past this rockery just now when she followed Zuo Yunshu, so she didn't think there would be any problems.It's just that she never expected that when she was walking in the middle of the rockery, A Ke in front of her suddenly turned around, and before she had time to react, she pushed her into a cave.
There is a mechanism here. The moment she was pushed in, a stone door fell down, blocking the entrance of the hole tightly.
The inside was suddenly pitch black, and Tang Xiaozuo was so angry that he slammed on the door: "Bastard, there is no end! What do you want to do?"
But no matter how much she scolded, there was no sound outside, and it was quiet.
Tang Xiaozuo kicked and kicked, but to no avail.When she had vented enough, she groped and sat on the ground, holding back her anger and waiting for someone to rescue her.
If such a living person like her disappeared, I don't believe that Feng Linran will not come to find her.Even if Feng Linran couldn't come, the protector You, who treats her well on weekdays, would surely come.
After figuring this out, Tang Xiaozuo calmed down a little, and began to think about why A Ke did this.
He is a servant in the villa, and he has no enmity with her. It is impossible for him to target her for no reason. Someone should have arranged for him to do so.Now Zuo Yunshu is in charge of everything inside and outside the villa, big and small. Presumably Zuo Yunshu ordered him to do this, but what is Zuo Yunshu doing for it?
Tang Xiaozuo remembered the first time he met Zuo Yunshu that day, he said she looked like an old friend he knew.Could it be that he was confirming this?
But to confirm this, must she be locked up here?
It was dark and stuffy here, which made her very uncomfortable.
Tang Xiaozuo hugged her knees, blinked and still couldn't see anything, which made her very helpless.
Darkness can always remind people of some bad things, like she was sitting, and suddenly there was a girl crying intermittently in her ears.
When she pricked up her ears to listen carefully, the crying disappeared.But when she relaxed a little, the voice drifted over again.
After doing this several times, the hairs all over Tang Xiaozuo's body were about to stand on end.
"Fenglinran, Fenglinran, Fenglinran..." She began to keep chanting Fenglinran's name, hoping that he would hurry to save her.
Because she was too scared, she began to tremble, sweat, and her heartbeat was unbelievably fast, and she even felt that the blood on her body was slowly cooling down.
She touched every inch of the wall here, looking for a mechanism to open the stone door.In addition to some protruding stones, there are some strange lines on one of the stone walls.She thought it was an important reminder, so she squatted there and touched it for a while.
To her disappointment, those lines seemed to be randomly drawn by someone, and judging from the direction of the lines, it should be a child's handwriting, messy, without any rules to find.
But at this time, her auditory hallucinations became more serious, and the girl's crying began to change and become weird.
Just when she felt that she was going to be unable to hold on any longer, a ray of light suddenly shone on her feet. Soon, the ray of light slowly expanded and became bigger and bigger...
The stone door opened unexpectedly.
After the dull sound, the light outside made her feel dazzling.
Outside stood Feng Linran, Protector You, and Zuo Yunshu.
She couldn't see the expressions of the three of them clearly, but could only vaguely recognize that the person standing in the middle was Feng Linran.
Tang Xiaozuo took soft steps, staggered a few steps, and still chose the person in the middle.She grabbed Feng Linran's skirt, with two lines of noodle tears hanging down, and scolded through gritted teeth: "I'm lost, I'm gone, why did you come? Why did you come?"
Feng Linran supported her body, and she attached her whole body to him, because all her strength was spent on scolding him, and she was exhausted now.
"Are you okay?" A big hand held her face, and the warm thumb scraped the cold sweat off her forehead.
She didn't have the strength to answer him again, but someone answered for her—
"Oh, I'm dizzy, I'm dizzy, Miss Fu Ling is dizzy."
After Tang Xiaozuo opened his eyes, he picked up the pillow and wanted to settle accounts with Zuo Yunshu.
Her body was still limp, and she was about to fall when she got out of bed and took two steps.Feng Linran, who was taking a nap next to her, seemed to have a premonition, and hooked her with her long legs.
He pulled out the pillow in her hand, took a feather duster, stuffed it into her hand, and said, "Brother Zuo hasn't come here yet, but the one named A Ke is outside, you go and beat him first to vent your anger." .”
"Thank you door master!" Tang Xiaozuo walked out of the room angrily.
When A Ke outside saw her, his face changed abruptly.
"Fu, Fu Ling girl..." Seeing the things in her hands, A Ke almost cried in fright.
Tang Xiao left hooked his hands: "You, come here, eat our feather duster first!"
A Ke started to move with difficulty, but moved farther and farther, and then suddenly turned and ran away: "Miss Fuling, I will tell the young master that you are awake!"
He looks quite naive, but he runs fast.
After all, she was in someone else's villa, so she couldn't chase after him.Tang Xiaozuo had no choice but to return to the room resentfully, and put on his shoes.
The urge to hit someone came so violently that I hadn't had time to put on my shoes yet.
After a while, Zuo Yunshu came to visit her.
Feng Linran silently threw the feather duster out of the window, Tang Xiaozuo was still furious in his heart, looked at Zuo Yunshu angrily, and asked, "Should you give me an explanation?"
Feng Linran, who was sitting next to her, coughed and reprimanded her softly: "Pay attention to your identity, why are you talking to Brother Zuo!"
"It's okay, I was the one who tested Fuling girl first and made her displeased." Zuo Yunshu was not annoyed, he comforted Tang Xiaozuo a few words, even apologized to her, and then began to explain the reason why he did so.
Unexpectedly, behind this seemingly prank, there is actually a embarrassing past.At least from Zuo Yunshu's mouth, Tang Xiaozuo heard a bit of helplessness and sadness.
He said: "I used to have a younger sister named Zuo Yunzhi. As the name suggests, she liked gardenias very much. But maybe it was because of her biological mother's early death. Yunzhi has a gloomy personality and likes to hide in places where others can't find her." Her place. Since I was a child, I like to study the art of mechanics, so I made a stone door for her in the middle of the rockery. When she is unhappy, she likes to hide in it. Once I close the stone door, no one can find her. , only I know." Zuo Yunshu's eyes drooped slightly, with a hint of sadness on his expression.
"Five years ago, Yunzhi suffered a sudden illness and often appeared insane. Many doctors were of no avail. My father's friend, the old man Luqiu Ke, heard about this and sent a letter inviting Yunzhi to go to his ethereal island to recuperate. I never thought that the news would leak out, that someone followed Yunzhi's boat to board the Kongling Island..." He paused for a while, as if he was trying to keep calm amidst the pain of memories.
"Miss Fuling must have heard about the later incident. All the people on Kongling Island were killed by villains. Senior Lu Qiuke disappeared, and Yunzhi also disappeared in that disaster." He smiled bitterly. Come on, "Miss Fuling looks somewhat similar to Yunzhi. When I saw her for the first time that day, I thought it was Yunzhi who came back alive. I'm sorry for scaring her. What happened today is also to test the girl, whether it is really a little girl?" Younger sister Yun Zhi. Until now, I still think that the girl might be Yun Zhi, I don’t know how the girl feels now, can she think of anything?”
The past was sad, and his words were so earnest, no matter how much grievance Tang Xiaozuo had in his heart, it would be difficult to express it right now.But if she was asked if she was the Zuo Yunzhi he was talking about, she shook her head: "No, I didn't think of anything. I don't like gardenias, and I don't like that cave either. I'll go to the yard with gardenias , I only feel oppressed. In the cave of the rockery, I only feel fear..."
Her words were meant to reassure him of his doubts, but for some reason, she seemed to find that Zuo Yunshu's eyes on her became more complicated.
During dinner, it seemed that everyone was not in a good mood.The old owner Zuo never showed up, Zuo Yunshu accompanied Feng Linran, and the two drank a lot of wine.
Tang Xiaozuo also wanted to drink, but as soon as his hand touched the cup, he was snatched away by the right guardian next to him: "Little girl, how can you drink in public."
Tang Xiaozuo pursed his lips, and was about to refute him, but he lowered his voice and said with a smile: "I'll move a jar to your room later, you can drink it behind closed doors."
"Alright..." Tang Xiaozuo looked at him gratefully.
After this meal, Zuo Yunshu and Feng Linran were both drunk, and their handsome and beautiful faces were made even more attractive by the smell of alcohol.It was getting late, Zuo Yunshu ordered someone to take Feng Linran back to his room.Feng Linran waved his hands gracefully, then bypassed the right protector, grabbed Tang Xiaozuo to his side, and said to Zuo Yunshu, "It's enough for Fu Ling to help me go back, and I won't bother Brother Zuo's people."
Zuo Yunshu looked at her and Feng Linran with an expression of "I understand", which was very subtle.
The neglected Protector Right had an even hurt face. He had always been the one who did this kind of thing, but now Feng Linran left him alone, naturally feeling a little lonely, and the way he looked at Tang Xiaozuo also quietly changed, why? See how jealous it looks.
But what is there to rush to do this kind of physical work?
Although Feng Linran was not as heavy as the right guardian, he was a man anyway, and it was very difficult for her to lean on Tang Xiaozuo like this.
"Guardian Right, come over and help me too, I'm working so hard by myself."
The right protector was a little emotional, and said arrogantly: "The sect wants you to help, but I didn't let me. Don't you want to drink, I'll find you wine..."
"Hey, hey, can I stop drinking?"
However, the Right Protector, who pretended not to hear, has gone far.
Tang Xiaozuo had no choice but to accept his fate, wrapped Feng Linran's waist with one hand, took his arm with the other and put it on his shoulder, and walked heavily to the guest room that had been prepared earlier.On the way, she didn't forget to complain: "Master, can you take two steps by yourself, I'm dragging you like I'm dragging a big bear..."
This complaint, why do you feel a little bit heavier?
The room Zuo Yunshu prepared for Feng Linran was next to the room where she had been lying down just now.She managed to get to the bed, and threw Feng Linran on the bed as if in revenge...
Feng Linran, who had been blinded by drunkenness just now, suddenly became clear.The moment Tang Xiaozuo got rid of him, he swung his long arm around her body, spun around, and pressed her under him.
Tang Xiaozuo screamed in shock, and then he covered his mouth.
He... what does he want to do?You don't want to mess around after drinking, do you?
It's over, what are the techniques of close-up self-defense for women that Master taught her?Is it attacking the upper body or the lower body?
Tang Xiaozuo turned his head and screamed, pushing and struggling to get out from under him.
"Don't move!" Feng Linran leaned into her ear, without moving her body, "I just wanted to tell you..."
tell her what?
Tang Xiaozuo opened his eyes wide and tensed his body, always guarding against his next move.
Seeing that she was much more honest, Feng Linran let go of her hand covering her mouth, turned his face sideways, stared at her, and said after a long while, "You can't believe everything Zuo Yunshu says."
Tang Xiaozuo never expected that what he was going to say was such a sentence.
But why? "Why do you doubt Zuo Yunshu's words?" Tang Xiaozuo asked him.
"Have you ever thought that if that Zuo Yunzhi is still alive, besides Lu Qiuke herself, she is the only one who might know the whereabouts of that "Mysterious Ji Miao Jie"?"
A word to awaken the dreamer.
She always felt that Zuo Yunshu gave people a strange feeling, neither a bad person nor a good person.Listening to him talk about Zuo Yunzhi today, there is a detail that she just remembered now.
Zuo Yunshu said that Zuo Yunzhi likes to hide in places that others can't find, so he specially built a mechanism on the rockery.Does this mean that Zuo Yunshu is also an expert in tricks, and is he also interested in Luqiuke's "Mystery and Wonderful Explanation"?
Thinking about it this way, Zuo Yunshu is not an easy character either.
"But the sect master," Tang Xiaozuo pushed him, "Why do you say these words in such a posture?"
Feng Linran tilted her head, resting her pillow next to her ear, patted her head with her hands, and answered the wrong question: "I'm sorry, I'm late this afternoon..."
Tang Xiaozuo took a breath, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
(End of this chapter)
After the ghost catching incident, Tang Xiaozuo never saw Susu again.Everyone in the sect was talking about Susu being the inner ghost who sent news to the major sects to betray the Tianzhu sect, but Tang Xiaozuo didn't believe it.
"Why don't you believe me?" Protector You walked into the yard and interrupted the chat between Tang Xiaozuo and the maidservants, "The door master said that only the inner ghost will find ways to stay, because she has a purpose to stay here, otherwise it would be normal No one dares to enter the snake's basket."
"But I stayed too. Doesn't the sect master think I'm also an insider?" Tang Xiaozuo said guiltily.
"You are an exception!"
"why?"
"The head of the sect said you look too naive..." The right protector rubbed his chin thoughtfully, "But I always think it's not because of this."
Tang Xiaozuo rolled his eyes towards the sky: "What do you think is the reason?"
Guardian Right thought for a long time, and suddenly slapped his hands: "Maybe it's because the sect master likes you!"
"Hey!" Tang Xiao curled his lips left, "I'd rather believe that I'm stupid."
The right protector seemed to be sure that there was an affair between her and Feng Linran, but he regretted how Feng Linran would fall in love with an ordinary girl like her.
"Girl, you have no femininity at all. You have mediocre looks, mediocre aptitude, and even mediocre body."
Where to look!Tang Xiaozuo put his arms around his chest, puffed out his cheeks and glared at him!
You Hufa deliberately teased her, stretched out his hand, and lifted her bangs on the forehead: "Let me see if lifting your thick hair curtain will make you mature... huh?"
Tang Xiaozuo hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, but it was too late, he stroked her big hand, and her square forehead was completely exposed.
Protector Right was smiling, but suddenly froze his expression.
Tang Xiaozuo dodged in a panic, pulled down his bangs, and ironed them bit by bit with his hands.
The right protector was dazed for a long time before opening his mouth: "Girl, your forehead...why did you hurt?"
There is a scar on her forehead near the hairline, the size of a copper coin.Because the injury was so severe at the beginning, the whole piece of flesh was gone, and the bones were exposed, so it was difficult to scar later.After the new flesh grows, even if the master uses the best medicine, the scar will only become less obtrusive, but it can no longer be eliminated.
She always covered it with thick bangs, otherwise she would feel uncomfortable when she saw it.
"I accidentally fell off the cliff before, and it was hit by a rock." Tang Xiaozuo said sullenly.
There is no girl who does not value her own appearance. If it weren't for the master's wonderful hand Huichun and the enlightenment of her brothers and sisters in the same school, she might have been depressed a long time ago.
The Right Protector seemed a little apologetic, and said embarrassingly, "Forgive me for offending..."
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, Tang Xiaozuo tried to find a topic to calm down: "Guardian You, are you here for something?"
This is the courtyard where several of their maidservants live, and few people come here on weekdays, let alone the guardian.
Originally, it was just a casual question, but I didn't expect that the right protector was really busy: "I'm from the sect master, and I'll drop by to give you a message. Zuo Yunshu helped a lot in repelling several sects this time. Tomorrow The head of the door will go to Mingyue Villa to pay his respects, and he will take you with him."
"En." Tang Xiaozuo responded, then raised his head, "En?" What's the matter with her?
"Hmm, what, huh? Go back and pack a few changes of clothes, and maybe stay in Mingyue Villa for a few days." Guardian You sent her back to the house to pack her things, and left in a hurry.
Bright Moon Villa?
Tang Xiaozuo suddenly remembered that day, the way Zuo Yunshu looked at him was too inexplicable.
Although she was not very willing, Feng Linran took her and set off.
Originally there were two carriages, but one of them was filled with gifts from Feng Linran to thank Mingyue Villa, and it could no longer take people.Tang Xiaozuo originally thought that he was a maidservant and not qualified to ride in a carriage, but when he learned that he could ride in a carriage with Feng Linran, he didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune.
There was a small table in the carriage, and there were some fresh lychees and desserts on the table, which made her eyes almost glued to her eyes.But Feng Linran didn't open her mouth to talk about it, and she didn't dare to reach out to take it, so she could only watch eagerly.
Feng Linran focused on reading a book and ignored her at all.
Tang Xiaozuo was courageous, pressed the book in his hand, and said solemnly: "There is no limit to the sea of learning, and it is right to turn around. Sect Master, don't look at it, let's chat."
Feng Linran raised her beautiful phoenix eyes, glanced at her, and then picked up the book in his hand: "If you want to eat, take it yourself."
Hey, it would have been nice to have said that earlier, it's hard for her to hold back for so long.
She was eating with gusto, when Fenglin Ranzhi seemed to inadvertently ask, "Is the injury on your hand healed?"
Tang Xiaozuo, who was peeling the lychees, was taken aback for a moment, the crystal clear lychees almost rolled to the ground.She silently put down the lychee, raised her tightly bandaged hand, and reported the injury to him seriously: "The wound is about half an inch long and very deep. Because it was covered with dust, it was festered and healed slowly. Don't touch water, don't touch it. Dare to hold things, can't lift heavy things..."
"So that's why you've been lazy and didn't work these days?" Feng Linran glanced at her, "I think you're very good at peeling the fruit."
Tang Xiaozuo pretended not to understand, and handed the freshly peeled lychee to his mouth: "I've peeled the fruit very well, the door master, don't you want to eat one?"
Originally, she was just being courteous, but it was expected that a picky and clean freak like Feng Linran would not really eat the lychee in her hand.Never thought that when he leaned over and opened his thin lips, he actually took the lychee in her hand.
The warm breath lingered on her fingertips for a moment and then left. Seeing the white flesh and vermilion lips, Tang Xiaozuo's heart beat suddenly accelerated.
Feng Linran rolled the pulp into his mouth, and after a while gracefully spit out the core, feeling extremely comfortable: "Peel another one."
This peeling never stopped, the two of you took one piece, and the plate bottomed out after a while.Tang Xiaozuo was satiated, grabbed a corner of the car curtain and wiped the corners of his mouth and hands, leaned in the car and stared at Feng Linran.
It is said that love is born from the heart, if he is a bad person, how can he be so good-looking?
She stared intently, and Feng Linran didn't seem to feel uncomfortable.After reading for a long time, he yawned, and Tang Xiaozuo yawned too.The drowsiness struck, she shook her body, tilted her head and closed her eyes in a daze, and soon fell asleep completely.
I don't know how long it took, and suddenly there was a voice in my ear.
"Xiao Zuo, Xiao Zuo..." She heard someone calling her name in a daze, and she opened her eyes to look, but there was a blur of white in front of her eyes. Even though she tried her best to open her eyes wide, she could only see a vague shadow .
"Who is it, Master?" She endured the dazzling white light and walked forward. The image of the person in front of her was made of water, and it was vague and ever-changing.It was a kind voice, but suddenly it became vicissitudes again.
"Zuoyatou, Zuoyatou..." The voice was different, and the address also changed.
Who is calling her left girl?
Why do you call her the left girl?
She went up to the ball of white light to find out, but the road under her feet suddenly collapsed, revealing a bottomless pit.She lost her body and fell straight down.
Wake up!
It was a dream.
Consciousness slowly withdrawn from the dream and returned to reality, Tang Xiaozuo suddenly discovered something extraordinary.
She, she, she... She actually lay on Feng Linran's lap.
She was so frightened that she quickly straightened up and looked at Feng Linran.
Feng Linran also opened her eyes, her unclear eyes circled around her body a few times, and then threw a long leg in front of her.
"Leg is numb, rub it..."
It was already afternoon when they arrived at Mingyue Villa, Zuo Yunshu waited at the gate of the villa to greet her.
I heard that the old owner's health has not been very good, and he has been shutting himself out for the past few years.Zuo Yunshu, the young owner of the villa, took care of everything inside and outside the villa, so naturally the matter of receiving Feng Linran also fell on him.
Zuo Yunshu first took them to visit the villa, and introduced several well-designed small courtyards a few times.I don't know if it was Tang Xiaozuo's illusion, but she always felt that Zuo Yunshu was watching her secretly.Occasionally cast his gaze over, although it is calm, but there is always a bit of inquiry, so strange.
After visiting the villa, Zuo Yunshu and Feng Linran went to discuss matters elsewhere, and Protector You also went with them.After a while, the housekeeper in the villa came over and said that if she was bored, he could send someone to take her around the villa.
Just now, I took a walk around and looked at the flowers, but I really didn't appreciate them carefully. Anyway, Feng Linran and the others couldn't finish talking about things for a while.
The steward called a servant named A Ke.A Ke's simple and honest appearance makes people feel unguarded, and her temperament is quite similar.
Tang Xiaozuo mentioned the places he hadn't seen enough just now, and asked A Ke to take him there.A Ke nodded and took her to these places.
It was summer, when the vegetation was at its most exuberant, and Tang Xiaozuo admired the scenery here.Akiti said: "There is another courtyard where the gardenias are blooming just right, may Miss Fuling go and have a look?"
Tang Xiaozuo glanced at him: "Then I will trouble you."
A Ke smiled innocently and walked ahead to lead the way.Tang Xiaozuo paused, then followed.
The courtyard he mentioned is in the southeast direction of the villa.And most of the people in Mingyue Villa live in the north courtyard, and this other courtyard seems to be isolated from the outside.
But as A Ke said, several gardenia trees were planted in this yard, with pure white flowers dotted among the leaves, elegant and graceful.
"It's really beautiful." Tang Xiaozuo praised, but her heart suddenly beat so hard that she felt a little uncomfortable.It was obviously extremely elegant, but it gave her a feeling of oppression.She turned around, ignored A Ke, and walked out of the courtyard first.
"Miss Fu Ling," A Ke chased after her, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, why am I not good?" Tang Xiaozuo still had a smile on his face, but his eyes turned cold, "Why do you ask me if I'm fine? Why did you bring me here? Are you testing me? What do you want to know? Who sent you?"
Ever since he offered to bring her to this yard, Tang Xiaozuo always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of the reason.
She asked questions like a cannonball, which made A Ke unable to react in time, and looked at her blankly: "Girl, you, you misunderstood, I just think the flowers here are beautiful, and I want to bring you to watch..."
How could she expect him to tell the truth?
Tang Xiaozuo turned his head and left.
"Miss Fuling, Miss Fuling..." A Ke hurriedly followed her.
Tang Xiaozuo angrily went to find Feng Linran, but the villa was so big that she lost her way, going around in circles, getting more and more chaotic, and finally had to ask A Ke for help: "Which way are you going?"
A Ke wiped off her sweat: "Miss Fuling, come with me, I will take you to find the master of Fengmen."
"Ah."
A Ke led her through a garden and towards a rockery.
"Miss Fuling, let's go through the middle of the rockery, so we can save some detours."
Tang Xiaozuo nodded in response.
She also walked past this rockery just now when she followed Zuo Yunshu, so she didn't think there would be any problems.It's just that she never expected that when she was walking in the middle of the rockery, A Ke in front of her suddenly turned around, and before she had time to react, she pushed her into a cave.
There is a mechanism here. The moment she was pushed in, a stone door fell down, blocking the entrance of the hole tightly.
The inside was suddenly pitch black, and Tang Xiaozuo was so angry that he slammed on the door: "Bastard, there is no end! What do you want to do?"
But no matter how much she scolded, there was no sound outside, and it was quiet.
Tang Xiaozuo kicked and kicked, but to no avail.When she had vented enough, she groped and sat on the ground, holding back her anger and waiting for someone to rescue her.
If such a living person like her disappeared, I don't believe that Feng Linran will not come to find her.Even if Feng Linran couldn't come, the protector You, who treats her well on weekdays, would surely come.
After figuring this out, Tang Xiaozuo calmed down a little, and began to think about why A Ke did this.
He is a servant in the villa, and he has no enmity with her. It is impossible for him to target her for no reason. Someone should have arranged for him to do so.Now Zuo Yunshu is in charge of everything inside and outside the villa, big and small. Presumably Zuo Yunshu ordered him to do this, but what is Zuo Yunshu doing for it?
Tang Xiaozuo remembered the first time he met Zuo Yunshu that day, he said she looked like an old friend he knew.Could it be that he was confirming this?
But to confirm this, must she be locked up here?
It was dark and stuffy here, which made her very uncomfortable.
Tang Xiaozuo hugged her knees, blinked and still couldn't see anything, which made her very helpless.
Darkness can always remind people of some bad things, like she was sitting, and suddenly there was a girl crying intermittently in her ears.
When she pricked up her ears to listen carefully, the crying disappeared.But when she relaxed a little, the voice drifted over again.
After doing this several times, the hairs all over Tang Xiaozuo's body were about to stand on end.
"Fenglinran, Fenglinran, Fenglinran..." She began to keep chanting Fenglinran's name, hoping that he would hurry to save her.
Because she was too scared, she began to tremble, sweat, and her heartbeat was unbelievably fast, and she even felt that the blood on her body was slowly cooling down.
She touched every inch of the wall here, looking for a mechanism to open the stone door.In addition to some protruding stones, there are some strange lines on one of the stone walls.She thought it was an important reminder, so she squatted there and touched it for a while.
To her disappointment, those lines seemed to be randomly drawn by someone, and judging from the direction of the lines, it should be a child's handwriting, messy, without any rules to find.
But at this time, her auditory hallucinations became more serious, and the girl's crying began to change and become weird.
Just when she felt that she was going to be unable to hold on any longer, a ray of light suddenly shone on her feet. Soon, the ray of light slowly expanded and became bigger and bigger...
The stone door opened unexpectedly.
After the dull sound, the light outside made her feel dazzling.
Outside stood Feng Linran, Protector You, and Zuo Yunshu.
She couldn't see the expressions of the three of them clearly, but could only vaguely recognize that the person standing in the middle was Feng Linran.
Tang Xiaozuo took soft steps, staggered a few steps, and still chose the person in the middle.She grabbed Feng Linran's skirt, with two lines of noodle tears hanging down, and scolded through gritted teeth: "I'm lost, I'm gone, why did you come? Why did you come?"
Feng Linran supported her body, and she attached her whole body to him, because all her strength was spent on scolding him, and she was exhausted now.
"Are you okay?" A big hand held her face, and the warm thumb scraped the cold sweat off her forehead.
She didn't have the strength to answer him again, but someone answered for her—
"Oh, I'm dizzy, I'm dizzy, Miss Fu Ling is dizzy."
After Tang Xiaozuo opened his eyes, he picked up the pillow and wanted to settle accounts with Zuo Yunshu.
Her body was still limp, and she was about to fall when she got out of bed and took two steps.Feng Linran, who was taking a nap next to her, seemed to have a premonition, and hooked her with her long legs.
He pulled out the pillow in her hand, took a feather duster, stuffed it into her hand, and said, "Brother Zuo hasn't come here yet, but the one named A Ke is outside, you go and beat him first to vent your anger." .”
"Thank you door master!" Tang Xiaozuo walked out of the room angrily.
When A Ke outside saw her, his face changed abruptly.
"Fu, Fu Ling girl..." Seeing the things in her hands, A Ke almost cried in fright.
Tang Xiao left hooked his hands: "You, come here, eat our feather duster first!"
A Ke started to move with difficulty, but moved farther and farther, and then suddenly turned and ran away: "Miss Fuling, I will tell the young master that you are awake!"
He looks quite naive, but he runs fast.
After all, she was in someone else's villa, so she couldn't chase after him.Tang Xiaozuo had no choice but to return to the room resentfully, and put on his shoes.
The urge to hit someone came so violently that I hadn't had time to put on my shoes yet.
After a while, Zuo Yunshu came to visit her.
Feng Linran silently threw the feather duster out of the window, Tang Xiaozuo was still furious in his heart, looked at Zuo Yunshu angrily, and asked, "Should you give me an explanation?"
Feng Linran, who was sitting next to her, coughed and reprimanded her softly: "Pay attention to your identity, why are you talking to Brother Zuo!"
"It's okay, I was the one who tested Fuling girl first and made her displeased." Zuo Yunshu was not annoyed, he comforted Tang Xiaozuo a few words, even apologized to her, and then began to explain the reason why he did so.
Unexpectedly, behind this seemingly prank, there is actually a embarrassing past.At least from Zuo Yunshu's mouth, Tang Xiaozuo heard a bit of helplessness and sadness.
He said: "I used to have a younger sister named Zuo Yunzhi. As the name suggests, she liked gardenias very much. But maybe it was because of her biological mother's early death. Yunzhi has a gloomy personality and likes to hide in places where others can't find her." Her place. Since I was a child, I like to study the art of mechanics, so I made a stone door for her in the middle of the rockery. When she is unhappy, she likes to hide in it. Once I close the stone door, no one can find her. , only I know." Zuo Yunshu's eyes drooped slightly, with a hint of sadness on his expression.
"Five years ago, Yunzhi suffered a sudden illness and often appeared insane. Many doctors were of no avail. My father's friend, the old man Luqiu Ke, heard about this and sent a letter inviting Yunzhi to go to his ethereal island to recuperate. I never thought that the news would leak out, that someone followed Yunzhi's boat to board the Kongling Island..." He paused for a while, as if he was trying to keep calm amidst the pain of memories.
"Miss Fuling must have heard about the later incident. All the people on Kongling Island were killed by villains. Senior Lu Qiuke disappeared, and Yunzhi also disappeared in that disaster." He smiled bitterly. Come on, "Miss Fuling looks somewhat similar to Yunzhi. When I saw her for the first time that day, I thought it was Yunzhi who came back alive. I'm sorry for scaring her. What happened today is also to test the girl, whether it is really a little girl?" Younger sister Yun Zhi. Until now, I still think that the girl might be Yun Zhi, I don’t know how the girl feels now, can she think of anything?”
The past was sad, and his words were so earnest, no matter how much grievance Tang Xiaozuo had in his heart, it would be difficult to express it right now.But if she was asked if she was the Zuo Yunzhi he was talking about, she shook her head: "No, I didn't think of anything. I don't like gardenias, and I don't like that cave either. I'll go to the yard with gardenias , I only feel oppressed. In the cave of the rockery, I only feel fear..."
Her words were meant to reassure him of his doubts, but for some reason, she seemed to find that Zuo Yunshu's eyes on her became more complicated.
During dinner, it seemed that everyone was not in a good mood.The old owner Zuo never showed up, Zuo Yunshu accompanied Feng Linran, and the two drank a lot of wine.
Tang Xiaozuo also wanted to drink, but as soon as his hand touched the cup, he was snatched away by the right guardian next to him: "Little girl, how can you drink in public."
Tang Xiaozuo pursed his lips, and was about to refute him, but he lowered his voice and said with a smile: "I'll move a jar to your room later, you can drink it behind closed doors."
"Alright..." Tang Xiaozuo looked at him gratefully.
After this meal, Zuo Yunshu and Feng Linran were both drunk, and their handsome and beautiful faces were made even more attractive by the smell of alcohol.It was getting late, Zuo Yunshu ordered someone to take Feng Linran back to his room.Feng Linran waved his hands gracefully, then bypassed the right protector, grabbed Tang Xiaozuo to his side, and said to Zuo Yunshu, "It's enough for Fu Ling to help me go back, and I won't bother Brother Zuo's people."
Zuo Yunshu looked at her and Feng Linran with an expression of "I understand", which was very subtle.
The neglected Protector Right had an even hurt face. He had always been the one who did this kind of thing, but now Feng Linran left him alone, naturally feeling a little lonely, and the way he looked at Tang Xiaozuo also quietly changed, why? See how jealous it looks.
But what is there to rush to do this kind of physical work?
Although Feng Linran was not as heavy as the right guardian, he was a man anyway, and it was very difficult for her to lean on Tang Xiaozuo like this.
"Guardian Right, come over and help me too, I'm working so hard by myself."
The right protector was a little emotional, and said arrogantly: "The sect wants you to help, but I didn't let me. Don't you want to drink, I'll find you wine..."
"Hey, hey, can I stop drinking?"
However, the Right Protector, who pretended not to hear, has gone far.
Tang Xiaozuo had no choice but to accept his fate, wrapped Feng Linran's waist with one hand, took his arm with the other and put it on his shoulder, and walked heavily to the guest room that had been prepared earlier.On the way, she didn't forget to complain: "Master, can you take two steps by yourself, I'm dragging you like I'm dragging a big bear..."
This complaint, why do you feel a little bit heavier?
The room Zuo Yunshu prepared for Feng Linran was next to the room where she had been lying down just now.She managed to get to the bed, and threw Feng Linran on the bed as if in revenge...
Feng Linran, who had been blinded by drunkenness just now, suddenly became clear.The moment Tang Xiaozuo got rid of him, he swung his long arm around her body, spun around, and pressed her under him.
Tang Xiaozuo screamed in shock, and then he covered his mouth.
He... what does he want to do?You don't want to mess around after drinking, do you?
It's over, what are the techniques of close-up self-defense for women that Master taught her?Is it attacking the upper body or the lower body?
Tang Xiaozuo turned his head and screamed, pushing and struggling to get out from under him.
"Don't move!" Feng Linran leaned into her ear, without moving her body, "I just wanted to tell you..."
tell her what?
Tang Xiaozuo opened his eyes wide and tensed his body, always guarding against his next move.
Seeing that she was much more honest, Feng Linran let go of her hand covering her mouth, turned his face sideways, stared at her, and said after a long while, "You can't believe everything Zuo Yunshu says."
Tang Xiaozuo never expected that what he was going to say was such a sentence.
But why? "Why do you doubt Zuo Yunshu's words?" Tang Xiaozuo asked him.
"Have you ever thought that if that Zuo Yunzhi is still alive, besides Lu Qiuke herself, she is the only one who might know the whereabouts of that "Mysterious Ji Miao Jie"?"
A word to awaken the dreamer.
She always felt that Zuo Yunshu gave people a strange feeling, neither a bad person nor a good person.Listening to him talk about Zuo Yunzhi today, there is a detail that she just remembered now.
Zuo Yunshu said that Zuo Yunzhi likes to hide in places that others can't find, so he specially built a mechanism on the rockery.Does this mean that Zuo Yunshu is also an expert in tricks, and is he also interested in Luqiuke's "Mystery and Wonderful Explanation"?
Thinking about it this way, Zuo Yunshu is not an easy character either.
"But the sect master," Tang Xiaozuo pushed him, "Why do you say these words in such a posture?"
Feng Linran tilted her head, resting her pillow next to her ear, patted her head with her hands, and answered the wrong question: "I'm sorry, I'm late this afternoon..."
Tang Xiaozuo took a breath, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
