Ling Tianyun didn't ask anything more, and he didn't want to know what the young man had said to the innkeeper later. Maybe that's the real reason why that room hasn't been inhabited for so long, and why people haven't been cleaned inside. None of this matters, although the story is a bit poignant.

The shopkeeper may have been a little drunk, and he muttered in a daze: "General Wu Zixu had white hair overnight, and the little one always thought it was impossible. I saw that the boy that day, but it was a real night, and the black hair on his head turned white. It can be seen what a heavy blow the woman's death was to the young man. ”

Ling Tianyun also looked solemn, deeply sorry for what happened to this young man, and at the same time admired the woman's infatuation with that young man. Even if you don't hesitate to die, you have to protect the person you love the most, this love is full of anger, you can sing and cry, but you have to make people sigh. Thinking about it, it's been more than ten years, and the boy has become a man in his thirties. I don't know where the man is now, why he hasn't been there for so long.

Ling Tianyun really wanted to ask the shopkeeper again about the two warriors who broke into his room tonight, but seeing that he was a little drunk, he still dismissed asking again.

"Guest officer, you can rest, the little one may be drunk high tonight, and he talks a little too much." The shopkeeper stood up apologetically and walked out the door with a shake. Even the dishes and chopsticks in this room had forgotten to clean up, but fortunately, Ling Tianyun didn't care about them.

After the shopkeeper left, the whole room fell into silence again. At this time, Ling Tianyun's thoughts were like a tide, and for a while, the woman who had been interviewed suddenly appeared in his mind, and the white-haired young man appeared in his mind for a while.

Although Ling Tianyun didn't know much about the love between men and women, he could still feel the young man who turned white and black overnight for love, and he could also feel that his lover left in front of him, but he couldn't do anything, that pale sense of helplessness, that heart-wrenching sense of loneliness.

Asking what is the love in the world, only making life and death promise each other, is this the highest state of love? He whispered in his heart what he would do if the same thing happened to him. No, I will never let the person I love the most leave me, even if it is the enemy of the world, and I will not let such a tragedy happen again. Although he has not yet met the woman he likes, he still secretly swears that no matter what happens in the future, he must do it.

Immediately, Ling Tianyun showed a dejected expression again, and couldn't help but laugh. I don't have the woman I like now, why do you think so much. Maybe I have too much emotion in my heart for this story, but it's nothing to think about, who can say for sure what will happen in the future.

A wave of sleepiness hit, Ling Tianyun shook his head and didn't think about those things anymore, he fell asleep on the bed.

On the second day, the sky was gray and hazy, the wind was blowing, and the temperature here was a little lower than that of Whitewater City.

Ling Tianyun slept soundly, and in a daze, he seemed to hear a knock on the door, and he reluctantly got up and opened the door. At first glance, it was the shopkeeper last night, and I saw him carrying a basin of hot water for the guests to wash and standing outside the door.

"Guest officer, this is hot water for you to wash, and I'll send you some early." Seeing Ling Tianyun open the door, the shopkeeper said to him with a courteous smile on his face.

Woken up by the knock on the door, Ling Tianyun no longer felt sleepy, he asked the shopkeeper to bring in the basin of hot water for washing, and the junior put down the hot water and withdrew.

After Ling Tianyun finished washing, it didn't take long for the shopkeeper to come up early. Breakfast is a few meat buns, a bowl of millet porridge, and a little pickles.

The shopkeeper put the breakfast on the table and turned around to leave, but was stopped by Ling Tianyun.

"Second brother, two samurai came last night, do you know?" Ling Tianyun remembered what happened last night and asked the shopkeeper about it.

The shopkeeper thought for a moment and replied, "Those two people came from Lanzhou last night." It is a martial arts hall in Nalanzhou, called Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo, and two martial artists from it. It is said that he is chasing a female snitch, but it is not clear why he is chasing the little one of the female snitch. Didn't scare you last night, did you? ”

"Lanzhou Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo, why haven't I heard of it in Xia." Although Ling Tianyun was in Baishui City, Baishui City was separated from Lanzhou, and Lanzhou basically had no Jianghu power. How could a Zhongshan martial arts dojo come out, he couldn't help but wonder and asked the shopkeeper.

"The small one is also heard, the Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo is said to have opened a month ago, and there are more than a dozen martial artists under the door of the dojo, all of whom are excellent in martial arts. It is said that there are forty or fifty disciples, and I heard that the tuition fee of the martial arts dojo is expensive, and it costs forty or fifty taels of silver a year. The shopkeeper replied.

"So have you ever seen a snitch?" Ling Tianyun asked again.

"Where did the little one see the female snitch, the two martial artists also asked the little one last night, the little one originally wanted to come up and take a look, but the two martial artists were very domineering. Broke into the guest officer's room, but fortunately did not cause any damage to the guest officer. The shopkeeper explained to him.

"Second Brother Lao is worried, those two martial artists only searched my room, and went out without finding the female snitch, and did not cause any losses to Zaixia." Ling Tianyun smiled and comforted the shopkeeper.

"It's really fortunate this time, in the future, it's better for the guest officer to stay away from the people in the Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo, so as not to get into trouble." The shopkeeper kindly reminded the other party.

When Ling Tianyun heard this, he asked him in confusion: "Why is this, could it be that this Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo specializes in evildoers." ”

"Alas, who said it wasn't, the people in this Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo have their own martial arts, and there are many people. On weekdays, they have done a lot of hurtful things, and they are all fierce, even more hateful than the horse thieves on the mountain. ”

Ling Tianyun was shocked when he heard this, there was still such a force in this Lanzhou City. As soon as he raised his sword eyebrows, he couldn't help but be furious, and asked the shopkeeper again: "Such wicked people, why does the government ignore them and connive at them to do evil, is there no royal law?" ”

The shopkeeper sighed and said: "The guest officials don't know, where can this government manage them, the government itself is in danger of protecting itself, there is a nest of horse thieves in the Qingyun Mountain in the north of Lanzhou City, who often rob nearby, but never hurt people." This government has no energy to suppress horse thieves now, and it will take care of those wicked people. It is said that as soon as the Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo opened, it gave a batch of generous gifts to the Lanzhou City Government. Now the government has turned a blind eye to such wicked people, and will not care at all. ”

"How can anyone stand up and clean up such wicked people?" Ling Tianyun was already in flames at this time, he couldn't help but shout loudly, and his right hand slammed on the small wooden table, almost slapping the table apart.

"Shhh, the guest officer whispered, maybe there are some of them in this inn. Let them hear you, and you're in trouble. When the shopkeeper heard Ling Tianyun say this, his face couldn't help but change. He hurriedly stopped Ling Tianyun, and at the same time, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he couldn't stop wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Although Ling Tianyun was angry, he did not lose his mind, he knew that this shopkeeper was for his good. He gradually calmed down, and let out a long breath of turbidity, as if he had vomited out the resentment in his heart. He smiled apologetically at the shopkeeper, and said calmly: "Don't worry, it's okay, how far is the little second brother from Lanzhou City." ”

As soon as the shopkeeper heard him ask, he couldn't help but be puzzled, he thought that Ling Tianyun was going to Lanzhou City to find those wicked people, he persuaded Ling Tianyun: "The guest officer is about a hundred miles away from Lanzhou City, if you want to go to Lanzhou City, it's best not to mess with the people from the Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo, otherwise you will have to worry about your life." ”

"Little second brother, don't worry, I'm going to Daizhou next, and I just happened to pass through Lanzhou City. He is not a reckless person, and he will not collide with the people of the Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo. Ling Tianyun's heart warmed, knowing that this shop's junior two was for his good.

"That's good, the guest officer is going to Lanzhou City today. It's dark today, it may be raining, and if the guest officer wants to go, he needs to get up early. lest he be drenched in the winter rain, although the guest officer is young and strong. But when it rains in winter, it is inevitable that there will be serious illnesses. When the other party heard him say this, he breathed a sigh of relief and suggested to him kindly.

"Thank you for your concern, by the way, does the little second brother know who created the Zhongshan Martial Arts Dojo, and why was the female snitch hunted down by those people?" Ling Tianyun asked the shopkeeper about the doubts in his heart. Regarding the conversation of the shopkeeper, Ling Tianyun felt that this person was not an ordinary inn junior second.

"The guest officer is holding up the small one, and the small one is in the remote Baishi Town, where do you know these things." The shopkeeper hurriedly replied, but Ling Tianyun finally felt that this person must have hidden something, but the other party refused to say that he was not good at asking again.

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he exited the room, and Ling Tianyun didn't ask anything more, and ate breakfast indiscriminately.

After having breakfast hastily, Ling Tianyun went downstairs to pay the rent. Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper didn't accept it again, saying that the broken silver given to him last night was enough. In the inn, some guests came down from the upstairs guest rooms one after another, and left after paying the rent.

Ling Tianyun saw that the shopkeeper no longer collected his rent, and he was not reluctant, so he put away the broken silver. With his bags and saber on his shoulder, he jumped on the white horse that had already been led out by the shopkeeper and left White Rock Town.

He rode his horse all the way along the official road towards Lanzhou, the gray sky was covered with dark clouds, and a biting cold wind blew. That wind lifted Ling Tianyun's black wind, flying behind his head at will.

On a wide official road, Ling Tianyun was the only one galloping on his horse, he looked at the gray sky, maybe it wouldn't be long before a winter rain fell. As the saying goes, the winter rain is as cold as silk, and the winter rain is nothing on the body at first, but the winter rain slowly penetrates from the skin into the bones, and there will be a trace of cold like a needle into the whole body. The chill lurks in the body, and when it happens, it feels like a mountain of sickness.

Ling Tianyun patted the horse's back, and the white horse seemed to understand what he meant, and immediately accelerated and galloped forward. On horseback, he remembered the woman who had broken into his room last night, and according to the shopkeeper, this woman was a female snitch. What could make the two martial artists of the First Martial Arts Pavilion fight hard to hunt down. Thinking of this, his mind appeared again with the delicate figure of the green and emerald gown, a pair of proud twin peaks flickering in front of his eyes, and a pair of black eyes like jewels kept looking at him.

He couldn't help but wonder why he still had the figure of the woman in his mind. Perhaps he didn't know that the appearance of the woman who had a relationship with him, like a small pebble thrown into the calm mirror-like lake, had already caused ripples in his heart. made his clean and clear gaze begin to be a little confused.

Sitting on the back of the horse, Ling Tianyun, who was galloping on horseback, his eyebrows were tightly locked, and the lingering shadow had been haunting his mind like a magic barrier. The figure slowly changed from vague to clear, the delicate resentment and words, the delicate crimson cheeks, and the body as light as a swallow slowly intertwined in his mind.

In the cold wind, a faint fragrance from under his neck penetrated into his nostrils, and only then did he begin to wake up. The figure was submerged by another figure, with a few small freckles on his delicate face, and his expression of wanting to speak was always looking at him timidly. This figure is the one who gave the sachet to him, but for Duo'er, he has a feeling of inexhaustibility and incomprehension in his heart. He and Duo'er get along a lot, but they don't talk much about each other, so they know each other well. But he finally thought that he only had brother and sister feelings for Duo'er, and had no other thoughts.

Ling Tianyun felt that since the appearance of this unknown woman, his firm brother-sister affection for Duo'er seemed to have become a little strange again. Why this is happening, he can't say.

Although he has not yet come into contact with my fair lady, the gentleman is good, the love realm of the talented and beautiful. But the sachet that the flower gave him before parting, and the softness of the strange woman's clothes, rippled in his completely unopened heart.

He calmed his mind and stopped the jumbled thoughts.

As soon as the reins were raised, the horse sped up again, and galloped swiftly on the sparse official road, like a white lightning bolt.
