Volume 2 Rain Lingling Chapter 95 Birds, Ice and Fish

The person wearing a felt hat was a weird young man. He touched his beard and took off his felt hat. Seven or eight small braids that were originally tied into the hat drooped down.

The young man's name is Huangfu, who came from outside Western Shu. For some reason, he followed Yang Huzi into the imperial capital yesterday. Guo Xiaojiu guessed in his heart that he should have something to do with the person in the carriage.

"Come?" Guo Xiaojiu turned around, he looked at Huangfu, and Huangfu also looked at him.

After a long time, they walked towards each other, just like ordinary friends meeting, but they were not considered friends.

Even the enemy, their only intersection was that Huangfu owed Guo Xiaojiu a drink on the top of Longdong City.

I don’t know today if Huangfu came to pay back the wine he owed last time.

"I didn't expect to see you here." Huangfu still spoke in a strange way.

At this time, the two of them had already faced each other. Huangfu was shorter, but his hair was very tall. When he looked roughly, he was not much different from Guo Xiaojiu's height.

"I didn't expect you to appear in the imperial capital." Guo Xiaojiu said with a smile.

After a few more sentences, Huangfu seemed to feel a little embarrassed. He nodded at Guo Xiaojiu, and he wanted to speak but stopped several times.

"You still owe me a drink. I happen to have a restaurant in the West City. Should I go over and sit there and return the drink at the same time?" Guo Xiaojiu's hand was already tightly holding the hilt. If he was not careful, his sword would be unsheathed.

"No need." Huangfu answered a little decisively.

A branch seemed to be unable to withstand the unmelted snowflakes, and suddenly broke from the branches and fell to the ground swaying.

The branches just fell on the ground between Guo Xiaojiu and Huangfu. The branches blew a few times, and the snowflakes on them scattered.

The wind blew, and the two attacked almost at the same time, right in the streets and alleys.

Guo Xiaojiu did not choose to draw his sword in the end. The two of them fists and feet intersected. In the blink of an eye, they had fought more than ten times, regardless of each other.

After the two palms collided, they took three or four steps each and set aside again.

I don’t know who stopped first, and a smile appeared on my face, so the other party stopped.

Huangfu seemed to have no grudges this time, so he gently patted his clothes: "Someone wants to see you, so I'll come to you."

It seemed like I had known this was the result, so Guo Xiaojiu nodded slightly, as a response.

Huangfu put on a felt hat, covered his face, and tied up his hair. He couldn't tell what he was originally looking. He turned around and began to walk out of the alley.

Gently rubbing the handle of the knife, Guo Xiaojiu gritted his teeth and made up his mind to go and take a look first. It is better than going back to the wine shop and thinking quietly.

He seemed to feel extremely familiar with the cold eyes behind the carriage curtain, but he was not sure if he had seen it somewhere.

One by one, one by one, the two walked out of the streets and alleys, not along the Zhuque Street, but along a path towards Yanping Gate.

After walking a long way, Huangfu looked back and confirmed that Guo Xiaojiu was following behind him.

In a blink of an eye, the soldiers guarding the city had already arrived, and the soldiers guarding the city blocked the way. Huangfu took out a token from his arms and couldn't see what was written on it. Several soldiers guarding the city hurriedly and respectfully made way.

Huangfu waved to Guo Xiaojiu. Guo Xiaojiu accelerated a little, and the two left the city side by side.

Outside the city was a wilderness. Huangfu continued to move forward, and Guo Xiaojiu always held his hand on the scabbard.

After walking for a long time, Huangfu slowly stopped, raised his head, and looked at a pavilion. The pavilion stood against the stream, among which there was a beautiful young girl looking at the riverside.

Huangfu turned around and made a gesture of invitation to Guo Xiaojiu. He turned his back and stopped looking.

Looking at the back, Guo Xiaojiu's fist clenched gently, and his feet slowed down a little, trying to escape, but now he has already walked here and if he wants to go back, he will definitely be stopped by Huangfu, so he can only walk forward with a tough bullet.

Standing in the pavilion was a girl in a black dress. The girl was not tall, which was the height of an ordinary woman in the Tang Dynasty. However, from her back, she was already much more stunning and charming than those dancers with some beauty.

Guo Xiaojiu walked into the pavilion and did not speak immediately. He stood behind the woman. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the stone bench.

The woman looked at the stream in a daze, and he looked at the plants and trees on both sides of the stream in the distance.

There was a bird that had not migrated to the south, sliding on the frozen stream, as if it had seen the fish underwater, pecking gently on the ice.

Unfortunately, birds cannot chisel open the ice layer, and fish cannot be eaten by them.

The girl in the black dress seemed to feel a little, so she slowly turned around, holding a folding fan in her hand and a hairpin on her head. She was very beautiful and didn't need such an ordinary woman's decoration at all, but she still chose to wear it on her head.

"I'm very similar to it." The woman in black dress said slowly.

"Miss Huo Shui." Guo Xiaojiu spoke lightly, but didn't know how to continue.

He knew what the disaster was, so he looked at the birds, ice layers, and fish swimming under the ice layers.

The girl is a disaster. The disaster that once accompanied Guo Xiaojiu into the Wandering Soul Castle was also the disaster that lent Guo Xiaojiu to his life when Guo Xiaojiu was exhausted.

No one knows how she did it, but if it weren't for her, Guo Xiaojiu wouldn't have been sitting under the pavilion and behind her today.

"Long time no see, Guo Xiaojiu." Huoshui's face had no expression and his eyes were very cold, as if he was looking at an ordinary stranger, but he only knew the other party's name.

I don't know how long the two of them were silent, but Guo Xiaojiu finally sighed. He had already let go of his hand holding the scabbard. He believed that disaster would not hurt him.

"Thank you, you don't owe me anymore." Guo Xiaojiu lowered his head slightly, not daring to see the expression on Huoshui's face.

The moment he heard this, Huoshui felt a sudden thunder suddenly sound in his mind. Is there really no man in the world who deserves her love, even Guo Xiaojiu?

Huoshui tightly held the folding fan in his hand. In order to cover up his trembling hand, she put her hand behind her. In order not to let Guo Xiaojiu see her eyes full of tears, she turned her head elsewhere.

He said that she didn't owe him anymore. Even if the last connection between him and her would be cut off by him.

"I owe you, and I will pay it back to you in the future." Guo Xiaojiu seemed to see that Huoshui was suddenly depressed, and hurriedly explained: "I have a restaurant in Chang'an now. When I make enough money, I will pay it back to you immediately."

I had just breathed a sigh of relief when I heard Guo Xiaojiu's previous words, but the next words made the whole heart scared. How much did she owe him in her previous life? Only in return would she suffer such torture in this life? Is there only money between her and him?

"You don't owe me either." Huoshui's voice was very depressing, and she suppressed the selfish thoughts in her heart.

He never belonged to her, he belonged to the woman who dared to take him from thousands of miles of yellow sand to the white-clothed door of Tianshan Mountain.

Since there is nothing to talk about, let’s leave all the past behind.

Huoshui turned around and continued to turn her back to Guo Xiaojiu. She looked at the stream flowing under the ice, without crying loudly, but without any sound.

Today, she just wanted to know if he had her in his heart, but she was still very disappointed.

She said that she hated him, but loved him even more. In the past, now, it was all like this.

Looking at the back of Huoshui, Guo Xiaojiu's fists were clenched tightly. He also remembered those days. It was not so pleasant or so happy, but she was her, not someone else.

She was still wearing the hairpin given by Guo Xiaojiu and still holding the black folding fan in her hand.

During these times, she might have thought about him countless times and suppressed the idea of ​​finding him countless times. When Guo Xiaojiu thought of this, he felt that what he owed her now was not just the ten-day situation.

"I will leave the imperial capital in three days." Huoshui suddenly said.

Guo Xiaojiu did not answer. He looked at her back and was stunned.

"You go." Huoshui's shoulders were already trembling slightly, and he still had enough courage to say this.

After hearing this, Guo Xiaojiu slowly stood up, and Ning Buer was waiting for him to go back in the tavern in the city.

He began to walk in the direction of the city, escaping, so he walked faster and faster without looking back.

When the Huoshui heard the footsteps gradually fading away, she felt her heart hurt like a needle. She hurriedly turned around and wanted to keep him, but he had already walked away.

Her tears broke down.

The ice layer was slowly broken through a gap. The bird hurriedly flapped its wings, explored its claws under the water, grabbed the fish, and flew towards the distant sky.

"You left, so did my heart, but you didn't take me away." Huoshui looked at the broken ice layer and cried.

"The most rare thing in this world is to pick stars with bare hands and not be able to love. There are so many people in the world that they can hardly meet me again."
