Chapter 50 Theft
Yun Yue left without any delay. Moreover, this time, there were two old men who were walking with him, one wearing gray clothes and a cube of gray beard, the other was wearing white clothes and black hair, and looked fairy-like. They were strong. If it weren't for the wrinkles on their faces and just looking at their backs, they wouldn't be sure that these were the two old men.
The two of them had cold faces and sharp eyes. From time to time, a ray of light shot out, making Dugu Xiao feel uncomfortable all over.
In other words, Dugu Xiao had never seen these two people, otherwise he would have discovered that these are the two people who secretly said they wanted to protect Dugu Xiao in Li Pinghai’s mansion!
Dugu Xiao was full of questions. This time he followed Yun Yue to the Xianzhan, which seemed not the final destination. He also observed Yun Yue's reaction when he returned home, and the extraordinary atmosphere there was no place to be crowded with people, but it was a bit deserted. No matter how you look at it, it didn't look like the legendary ancestor inn.
Dugu Xiao felt something was wrong, but before he could ask, he fell into a crowd again and began to rush on the street.
This time, the few people did not use the teleportation array, but still squeezed out of the city. Xianren Inn is located in the core area of Tianxing City, far from the city gate. Just walking out of the city took a whole half of a day. When the few people successfully left the city, the sky was already covered with stars and the night was getting darker.
The two old men said calmly to Yun Yue, "The rest depends on your own, Miss." After that, they hid into the night.
Yunyue was very calm about this and continued to rush on the road in silence. Dugu Xiao couldn't help it and asked, "What's going on? You have a bad relationship with your father?"
Out of politeness, Dugu Xiao didn't ask too badly. Since he chose to follow her, he should believe her. However, not to mention that the environment in Xianzhan is a bit strange, when his baby daughter returned home, Yunyue and her father only spent half a day together, and it was her father that Yunyue went to find.
As a father, it is impossible for him to know that Yunyue will go back in the next few days. It would be fine if he didn't send someone to greet him, but he was still waiting for Yunyue to find him by himself. So Dugu Xiao boldly speculated that the relationship between the father and daughter was not good.
"It's nothing. My father asked me to practice just to see if I have the ability to share his worries. Now that I have graduated, I naturally have to take over some family business." Yun Yue spoke silently, unable to hear joy and anger in her words.
"Then where are we going now? What happened to those two people just now?" Dugu Xiao knew the truth and did not ask about the topic, but asked about where to go next.
"Go to Shuang'an City, where it is well-connected, let's help with the appointment affairs there," Yun Yue replied.
"What delegated affairs?" Dugu Xiao said in confusion.
"Except for the army and the emperor's personal personnel, others are not allowed to use teleportation arrays to transport things. Not all shops have warriors in charge, so some of their valuable goods will be handed over to us to help transport them to avoid accidents. Our task is to safely deliver the things entrusted by the employer to the safely" Yun Yue explained.
Dugu Xiao nodded thoughtfully. In this way, the matter Yunyue was going to take over was similar to the ancient escort agency. If you could not go directly, you could only ask someone with strength to help transport it. I think this errand would not be boring. The two old men just now should be the ones who helped Yunyue handle these affairs.
"Then what you carry is," Dugu Xiao stared at the burden on Yun Yue and asked.
"Well, I'll pass by on the way to Shuang'an City, so I'll take it there."
Yunyue answered, but Dugu Xiao felt that it was not that simple. Is this a test for her father? See if she has the ability to take over such a business?
Thinking of this, Dugu Xiao suddenly felt that Yunyue's father could create a first inn with another person and manage the entire immortal inn alone. It was not just a talk. It was really not simple. It was just that he was so strict with his children. Is it really good? Isn't he afraid of destroying his family affection with Yunyue?
What such a wealthy family does cannot be imagined by common sense. No wonder Yunyue has always been cold. With such a strict father, even if he is lively, he will be forced to be like this, right?
Knowing Yun Yue's difficulties, Dugu Xiao began to be vigilant all around him. It was already dark, and Yun Yue had not yet broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm. Although he could clearly distinguish the direction, he was still a little short of trying to understand the crisis and deal with emergencies, so he could only do it himself.
Feeling that Yun Yue had been using her subtle spiritual power to sense the front, Dugu Xiao couldn't help but sigh, thinking that in the late stage of the Transcendence Realm, he was useless except for his strong strength, but everyone else could use spiritual power at that time, and it was really more annoying than others.
However, if we were to this day, how many of the peers of the past could compare to themselves. Many things in this life cannot be generalized, only for a while.
"Just just walk with peace of mind, just leave the rest to me," Dugu Xiao said.
Yunyue did not respond, but Dugu Xiao felt her steps and seemed to pause for a moment. He thought she was following her advice, but he did not continue to speak and followed her forward.
Yunyue still had the stubborn temper. She didn't know if she was angry with her father or something, but she had no intention of stopping. The night was getting darker and darker, and she was almost out of sight, but she was still moving forward.
Although her cultivation level is not high, it is really useless to use it to rush. At this time, the two of them have completely left Tianxing City. The road conditions on the official road are flat, and Yun Yue is walking steadily. Judging from her posture, she seems to want to go directly to Shuang'an City.
Seeing her working so hard, Dugu Xiao advised her to take a break several times, but Yun Yue refused.
Just like that, two days later, another late night, Yunyue was already walking in a ragged way, but she was still insisting. Dugu Xiao couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed her and said, "Okay, let's take a break. We are humans, not machines. If we continue like this, our bodies will collapse. Do you want to sleep for ten or eight days as soon as you get there?"
"I..., um"
When Dugu Xiao saw Yun Yue's tired eyes accompanied by stubborn eyes, he knew that she still wanted to persevere and did not give her the chance to finish her words, so he knocked her out.
Dugu Xiao sighed heavily after catching Yunyue's collapsed body, then found a remote place, put her down, pillowed her bag under her head, and then lay down not far away.
Later, Dugu Xiao felt it was inappropriate, so he went to find some dry branches, set a fire next to Yunyue, took out a piece of clothing and covered her, and then lay down again.
Dugu Xiao leaned against a huge rock and looked at Yun Yue's flawless face, which was a little dazzled.
It is said that when a person is doing something seriously, it is the most attractive, but Yun Yue can no longer be described as serious at this time, she is simply trying hard!
She does have a unique charm in this way, which makes people want to pity and help her.
This is the person who can really make a living by relying on his face, but she works so hard, so why is she working hard for?
Born in a family with indifferent family affection, her life has long been planned by her father. In fact, she can wait for marriage with peace of mind and ignore anything.
Do you want to resist? You don’t want to accept the arrangements of your family and don’t want to marry someone she doesn’t like? Then her life is no different from herself. What is she living for? In this meaningless world, use her blood and sweat to prove her father’s stupidity?
Dugu Xiao sighed deeply, why are the people he met so stubborn and willing to persist for those meaningless things, Li Qingshui, Yun Yue, and the same is true for that, including Xianshiyin.
What is the meaning of life? What is the answer to life? Experience the sufferings of the world, feel the helplessness of life, and use your life to persist in things that will eventually return to dust?
They still have persistence and pursuit, and even death is so meaningful. But what about themselves, why is they living? Is it just to see them persist, but nothing can be changed?
Dugu Xiao moved his finger stiffly, took out the wine, and wanted to drown his sorrows, but finally hesitated to let it go back.
Drinking is a mistake. There are countless cases in front of me. Even though I have a lot of alcohol now, it’s nothing to drink, but just in case, let’s just forget it.
But without wine, the melancholy in my heart will not be vented. This night is destined to be a sleepless night.
Dugu Xiao looked at Yun Yue in the distance and was stunned. She must have been exhausted, otherwise she would not have been sleeping so sweetly, but her spirit had been tortured to pieces, so why can't she sleep?
Psychological fatigue is indeed far more terrifying than physical fatigue!
"It would be great if someone could give me a stick and knock myself out." Dugu Xiao sighed secretly, but could only toss and turns to adjust his posture and could not sleep.
The night passed like this, and the sky was already white. Dugu Xiao finally felt a little tired and closed his eyes. I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly he heard a slight sound and was immediately awakened.
Dugu Xiao opened his eyes vigilantly, and Ling Nian had already searched around, and found that Yun Yue had just turned over and there was no abnormal movement around him. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
But he was awakened and the sky was getting brighter. Dugu Xiao did not continue to rest. He got up and moved his muscles and bones. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong with Yun Yue's sleeping posture. He observed it with his spiritual thoughts and was shocked to find that the bag that was pillowed by Yun Yue was missing!
Dugu Xiao rushed over and woke Yunyue up, "Hey, wake up, don't sleep."
"Well... it's you... what's wrong..." Yun Yue opened her eyes immediately. After seeing that it was Dugu Xiao clearly, she closed it again and asked tiredly.
"Did you touch the burden under your head? The burden you brought is gone!" Dugu Xiao said in a deep voice.
"What!" Yun Yue sat up straight and hurriedly turned around to check. After finding nothing there, she frowned and asked, "How could this happen?"
Dugu Xiao had a calm face and couldn't figure it out. He really couldn't think of how the burden would suddenly disappear. Logically, if someone came here, he would definitely notice it. It was impossible that there was no abnormal movement at all, and he disappeared inexplicably.
Yun Yue saw Dugu Xiao's expression and confirmed that this was not a joke. She immediately said, "Go and check the surroundings quickly and meet here at noon."
"Okay" Dugu Xiao didn't delay, and took action immediately.
This is the official road, with only two directions in front and back, and there are small woods on both sides. The trees are not dense, and you can see it very far at first glance. Dugu Xiaochi was exploring the road ahead, including both sides for dozens of miles, but except for walking normally, there was no stranger vehicle, no notice was found.
When Dugu Xiao returned to the agreed location, he was also rushing back with a frown when he saw Yun Yue. Needless to say, the result of the two people's investigation was strange, but where did the bag go?
