Chapter 651: The Nightmare Returns
The wind is still blowing.
The clouds and mist on the mountain swept past Qin Ruolan's beautiful face.
Her gaze also seemed a little trance-like, as if she had suddenly returned to many years ago.
She said softly: "He was not the same at that time as he is now. β
ββ¦β¦β
"He had a lot of expressions on his face, and a lot of emotions, unlike now when he can't show people, I've seen him laughing, I've seen his frustrated look, evenβ"
At this point, she didn't say any more.
There seemed to be some memories that she didn't want to share.
After being silent for a while, Qin Ruolan let out a faint breath and said, "At that time, he was much more real. β
ββ¦β¦β
Nanyan didn't speak.
But, she is not without feelings.
Because, she clearly felt a little tingling in her chest, which was a feeling that she had been familiar with these days.
Almost unconsciously, she clenched her hands hard to control herself and not tremble.
Don't be defeated.
Indeedβ
Zhu Feng and Qin Ruolan have a past.
She was right, she had seen more of Zhu Feng's appearance.
At least Nanyan himself, he didn't see Zhu Feng when he was a teenager, probably at that time, he was more impulsive and much more agile.
Unlike now, any emotion is hidden under that grim face.
If you want to see his sincerity, you must first go through enough tempering to make people bruised all over your body before you can reluctantly go to his heart.
Yourself, isn't that what it is?
However, Qin Ruolan seemed to have done it easily.
She tilted her head, looked at Nanyan, and said, "But, how many people can accept the real him?" β
Nanyan took a deep breath and said calmly: "The current him is not fake. β
ββ¦β¦β
"I know, he doesn't care about wearing a mask on people."
ββ¦β¦β
"Everything he says and does, it's true."
ββ¦β¦β
"So, what's the difference?"
Qin Ruolan's eyes flickered slightly.
She seemed to have been stabbed in the chest by something, and the tingling sensation was clearly reflected in her eyes.
She raised her head and looked at Nan Yan's somewhat stubborn expression.
After a while, he laughed indifferently.
"That's right, he's true now."
She said, but, without waiting for Nanyan to speak, she continued: "However, there is a big difference between the real and the real. β
ββ¦β¦β
"You must feel that you know him very well, and even, you must feel that you are special to him."
ββ¦β¦β
"But I'll tell you, I used to be special."
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
Nanyan's heart sank fiercely.
Qin Ruolan looked at her indifferently and said, "I know that these days, you have followed him to the north and south, been on the battlefield, and even helped him during the Battle of Beiping. β
ββ¦β¦β
"I've done these things, too."
ββ¦β¦β
Nanyan's breathing became heavier and heavier.
At this time, for some reason, she suddenly thought of what Aunt Tongyun had said to her when she was in the palace in the past-
Niangniang and Concubine Ning are quite similar in temperament.
Not apathy, but that kind - that kind of heart.
In this palace, there are not many people with such a heart.
β¦β¦
Nanyan clenched his fists hard.
When she spoke again, although her expression was still very calm, her voice was already trembling a little unconsciously: "What are you telling me by saying this?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Qin Ruolan looked at her quietly for a long time.
Then, slowly, he said, "It's nothing." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I'm just trying to tell you this."
ββ¦β¦β
"I just want you to know."
Nanyan stretched out her hand and lightly covered her chest, feeling a slight pain in her heartbeat, she took a deep breath and said, "If this is your purpose, then you have achieved it." β
ββ¦β¦β
"Now, can you tell me where the emperor has gone?"
Qin Ruolan glanced at her, and then said lightly: "Because, he hasn't found the ship of the people of the country, he is worried about whether they have entered the depths of Xingluo Lake, or even arrived at the Tiangang Chain Dock." β
Nanyan frowned, and subconsciously glanced behind him.
The fog is thick and the lake is also full of smoke.
It was impossible to see farther, much less to see what she wanted to see.
Qin Ruolan said: "So, the emperor has already sent troops. β
"What? The emperor has already sent troops? β
"That's right."
ββ¦β¦β
"He wants to get people back sooner."
"But he didn't have a map of the lake, and he didn't know where the islands were."
ββ¦β¦β
"What if, what if there's danger?"
Qin Ruolan looked at her lightly: "What do you think, what are we talking about in the past two days?" β
Nanyan's throat was slightly stalked.
Qin Ruolan said: "My father once spent his youth here. β
ββ¦β¦β
"It's been many years, but he remembers."
ββ¦β¦β
"Since I was a child, he told me about what happened here, so I know how many islands there are, and I also probably know what forces are distributed in the Tiangang Dock."
Nanyan was speechless.
It turned out that for the past two days, the two of them had been studying the geographical map of the lake behind closed doors.
Qin Ruolan bent down, picked up the bamboo basket on the ground, and said calmly: "Guifei Niangniang, you are not the only one who can help him. β
ββ¦β¦β
"Me too."
ββ¦β¦β
"I've done a lot of these things."
Nanyan's throat stumbled, and he became more and more speechless.
Qin Ruolan didn't seem to be interested in saying anything more, and turned around lightly: "Let's go." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I've said what I want to say."
However, Nanyan never moved.
Qin Ruolan frowned slightly, turned his head to look at her, only to see Nanyan take a deep breath, slowly raise his head, and say, "You go first." β
ββ¦β¦β
"It's over, let people pick me up again."
ββ¦β¦β
"I'd like to stay here for a while."
ββ¦β¦β
Qin Ruolan felt that she was a little strange, but at this time, she actually didn't want to get along with Si Nanyan anymore.
Walk separately, maybe it's good.
So, she turned around lightly and went down the mountain.
As for Nanyan, she stood in place, watching Qin Ruolan's back disappear into the mist, and then slowly turned around and walked to the other side.
I walked until the tree I was holding on to that day.
Looking below, the vast surface of the lake.
The scenery hasn't changed at all.
Even in the grass behind him, the sound of Si Xi Suo was the same as that day.
Her brows furrowed, and she heard a voice behind her: "We, meet again." β
Nanyan turned away.
In the mist, the face that had appeared in her nightmare last night appeared from the clouds again, like a nightmare again.
