Chapter 28 Chapter 28: Yunmeng Goddess

Wu Zixu walked in pompously, seeing the two girls glaring at him with unfriendly expressions, they obviously didn't welcome him, and felt terrible.Until he faced them, he began to think about the real reason why he came here, why he dared not sleep, and looking for a chance to get close to the illusion beauty, were all untenable reasons. At this time, even he himself was confused, why did he come here to be an abrupt beauty?Could it be that he was bewitched by ghosts again? Baichun said displeasedly: "Our daughter's family is discussing matters of the heart. If Mr. Lang has nothing special, please go back to Fengzhu Pavilion immediately and have a good rest. Don't lose energy to paint tomorrow."

Wu Zixu knew that Baichun was really angry, and looked at the Wushuang woman sitting beside her. This woman stared at him with provocative eyes, and there was a look of contempt on the corner of her mouth, knowing that she wanted to let her go Taking action to solve a problem is tantamount to seeking a fish from a tree, so I hurriedly dispelled this idea. I just hate that I haven't thought of a way to "stay" for a while, so I had to say something casually to buy more time to think, and said: "Is it true that when I complete the seven pictures of beauties that satisfy the eldest lady, as long as I call the elder sister Wherever the young lady is going, the young lady will go there immediately, no matter what the young lady is doing, or seeing anyone?"

Baichun said unhappily: "Are you here just to ask these few words?" Wu Zixu smiled and said: "Missy give me an affirmative answer first, and then I will tell Missy the reason why I visited Qingzhu Pavilion at this inappropriate time." Then he said to Wushuangnv: "Ms. Shuangshuang can be our witness." Baichun couldn't help him, nodded and said: "Okay! If you can complete four paintings in three days, within the next two days, as long as Mr. Lang gives orders, Baichun will immediately obey the order, how about it? Do you dare to agree?" Wu Zixu said happily: "That's the decision."

Baichun said coldly: "Can you get out now?" Wu Zixu said: "There is one more thing to do, get out immediately after finishing it." Without waiting for Baichun to speak, he turned around and pointed to the "Chariot Goddess Picture" on the wall, and said: "I'm here to put the finishing touches on this painting, to write an inscription for this painting, the so-called 'must also correct the name', so that this painting can be passed down forever. " Baichun was at a loss for words, but because of his affection for sending the painting to him, it was hard to refuse his reasonable request.Although he knew that this was an excuse he came up with urgently.This guy must have seen Shuangshuang coming here by boat, and he became very lustful, so he used an excuse to get close to Shuangshuang.

Wu Shuang said indifferently: "What is Mr. Lang's question? Can you tell me first?" Baichun suddenly realized that she wanted to know more about this painting. Seeing the "reaction" of Wushuang girl, Wu Zixu was overjoyed immediately, his soul floated into the air, and he blurted out, "How about the goddess Yunmeng?" Wushuangnv and Baichun lost their voices at the same time: "What?" Then the two women looked at me and I looked at you, not understanding why the other party lost their composure like themselves. Wu Zixu also froze, completely unable to understand why their reactions were so strong.

For a moment, the three of them were speechless. The atmosphere was eccentric. Wu Zixu recovered first, opened his hands and said, "Goddess Yunmeng! Isn't the name beautiful enough? What's the problem? How poetic!" Wushuang's face turned pale uncontrollably, and she lowered her head.After her uncle sent her to the Baixi Troupe, she clenched her gums and practiced her skills hard, her will never wavered, and she thought she lived a braver and stronger life than others. Not as clear and distinct as before.The phrase "Goddess of Yunmeng" by Wu Dunpi set off a turbulent wave in her heart. The combination of illusion and reality made her, who is used to hiding her thoughts, couldn't help crying out in surprise, showing her fragile side.At this moment, she was in a state of confusion, but even though she had thousands of words to ask, she knew it was inappropriate to bring them up, because it would reveal her details.

Baichun stared at Wu Zixu and asked, "Does Yunmeng refer to Yunmengze? What is the connection between this place and the person in the painting?" Wu Zixu didn't understand why the two women reacted so strongly, especially the Wushuang woman, whose beauty changed drastically and she was almost speechless.Fortunately, he is the best at adapting to changing situations. He rolled his eyes and said: "Of course there is a direct relationship, otherwise how could such a name be changed. Ha! Please listen to me in detail. Before arriving in Yueyang, I used to travel by boat on the lake and passed Junshan Island, such a scenic spot, how can I miss it, so I climbed the mountain and went to the tomb of the second concubine at the east foot to worship Xiangjun and Mrs. Xiang. At night, I went to the nearby Xiangfei Temple to spend the night. The beauty in the painting. Just now I had an idea, and thought of the beauty in the painting, it is very likely that one of the two concubines came to dream. Hey! Yunmengze is the ancient name of Dongting Lake, and calling her the goddess of Yunmeng is even more ancient. Two Give me some advice from this beauty, isn't this name very appropriate?"

Seeing the change in his expression, Baichun knew that he was talking nonsense, but because she had made an oath to promise Qian Shichen not to divulge anything about Yunmengze, although she intuitively felt that what this guy said was related to Xiao Yunmeng, she did not. There is no way to accuse him of talking nonsense, and he was speechless for a while. Gu Yueming stepped into the courtyard gate of Qingzhu Pavilion with ease.On the grounds that he knew the way, he rejected Fatty Zhou's suggestion to send a servant girl to lead the way, and went to see Baichun alone. The main building of Qingzhu Pavilion was brightly lit, a man's voice could be heard faintly, and it was Wu Zixu who was vaguely discernible, and when he wanted to hear clearly what Wu Zixu was saying, the inside fell silent.

Gu Yueming climbed up the long steps, put his hands behind his back, and walked through the door leisurely. Three pairs of eyes shot towards him like six sharp arrows, one pair of eyes suddenly showed intense murderous hatred, and then turned and closed. Since Gu Yueming became the emperor's bounty hunter, he has become a thorn in the side of the underworld. He lives on the edge of life and death all the time, so he acts differently.This time, he used probing techniques, and suddenly appeared in front of the test subject. From his first and most direct reaction, he judged the true meaning of the subject's heart, and thus distinguished friend from foe.

Baichun was very surprised and exclaimed coquettishly: "Rare customers, rare customers, I really didn't expect Big Brother Gu to come." Gu Yueming cast his eyes on Wushuangnv, and at a glance, he recognized from the beautiful lines of the lower half of her face that it was the girl Jindu met. Her small mouth seemed to have said something to him that he couldn't remember. A deep imprint that will never be forgotten. He always felt that she was beautiful, but when he saw her whole appearance, he couldn't help being amazed.The most attractive thing is her pair of deep and mysterious eyes, which seem to hide endless secrets waiting to be discovered.

For Gu Yueming, this is an emotion that he has never had before. Even if it is an extraordinary and outstanding beauty like Baichun, he can still treat it as nothing, and he can't feel excited.It was this girl who appeared like a fiery ball of fire in his world of ice and snow, which warmed his heart. After the girl suppressed the hatred in her eyes, she lowered her head to hide the shock in her heart. Baichun left his seat, stood up and greeted him as a gesture of welcome. Wu Zixu looked a little embarrassed, and smiled at him a little anxiously: "Brother Gu, hello!" Baichun stopped and looked at Wu Zixu, shining brightly, obviously because Wu Zixu had become suspicious of Gu Yueming's acquaintance-like demeanor. In an instant, Gu Yueming grasped the delicate situation between the four of them. As long as he said a word, the whole structure of the relationship would collapse and never exist again. With a move in his heart, Gu Yueming frowned at Wu Zixu and said: "You bastard will never change, you were like this when you were in the capital, and you still can't change when you come to Yueyang." Turning to Baichun again, he said, "Don't blame Baichun, he wouldn't be able to draw such a picture if he wasn't like this." A few words relieved Wu Zixu, and indirectly explained his bewildered look because Gu Yueming broke his bad heart. Baichun was stunned, obviously because what Gu Yueming said was completely different from what she thought in her heart, and they couldn't be connected together. Wu Zixu let go of the big stone in his heart, immediately became angry, coughed twice and said: "Yueming understands me best, ha! Understands me best." Gu Yueming's eyes fell on Wu Shuangnv, pretending not to know her, and said: "This girl is..." Baichun glanced back at Wushuangnv, and said: "Sister Shuangshuang is like Mr. Lang, she is a guest in Hongyelou, and she will perform illusions at the tenth anniversary dinner. The girl is very good at this." ' The four words are well-deserved." Wu Shuang looked at Gu Yueming again, with a calm expression, and said, "Mr. Gu, please advise." Gu Yueming understood. The girl who called herself Shuangshuang was mistaken. The reason why she came to Yueyang has only one purpose, which is to kill herself to avenge Xue Tinghao, because she thought it was him Gu Yueming who forced Xue Tinghao to death. Her original plan was to set up a plot to kill him in Junshan Garden, but when she saw the invitation card for the 10th anniversary dinner of Hongyelou on the table, she changed her mind, and felt that it would be more beneficial to assassinate him by using illusions on such occasions as the dinner party Due to the situation, he went to Hongyelou to work as an illusionist. This enlightenment made him feel incomparably stimulated, and his life was full of interest. It is better to die at the hands of this beauty than to die at the hands of others. Is this a kind of destiny?From the moment he met her, he felt an unusual connection with her. Could it be that he was destined to die at her hands? Originally, he planned to meet her again and would explain to her the reason for Xue Tinghao's suicide to clear up the misunderstanding, but now he is a little bit reluctant to do that. well!Unless he wanted to die, who would have the ability to kill him under Gu Yueming's high vigilance?Of course he can't let anyone kill him. Even if he is impatient, he must first find Chu He and save Mrs. Hua Meng before he can have other ideas. But he really enjoys the chance to be killed, and that's the only way he can experience the true meaning of life. Thoughts raced through his mind with lightning speed, and he heard himself respond, "Looking forward to seeing the Twins perform at the dinner party." Baichun was stunned for a moment, her beautiful eyes shot a puzzled look, and she looked at Gu Yueming. Wushuang woman's eyes lit up, she stood up and said, "I don't have anything to do here, I want to go back to Yuzhu Pavilion to rest." After all, without waiting for Baichun to agree, he went out. Three people and six eyes watched her beautiful figure disappear outside the door, and each had a strange feeling. Baichun thought to himself: Could it be that Gu Yueming, who has always been lonely and ruthless, is attracted by this woman? Wu Zixu was thinking that in terms of attractiveness, both of them are not inferior to each other, if he wants to choose only one of the two women, it will be a huge problem. Gu Yueming had the urge to chase her out and explain everything to her, not to please her, but to hope that she would no longer live in hatred and her mood could be restored to purity. Baichun breathed a sigh of relief and called out, "Brother Gu!" Gu Yueming looked at her calmly, and said: "Bai Chunding is surprised why I came to visit suddenly, but don't be offended, I just want to appreciate Lao Lang's best masterpiece in his life again, nothing else." Wu Zixu's expression was filled with joy, on the surface it seemed that he had met a bosom friend, but in fact he hoped that Gu Yueming could see the miracle, he laughed and said, "Please, Yueming!" Gu Yueming moved to Wu Zixu's side, looking at the painting intently. Wu Zixu turned around and stood side by side with Gu Yueming, not looking at the painting, but paying attention to the changes in Gu Yueming's expression. Baichun looked at the backs of the two thoughtfully, stepped back, reached the bench, and sat down, unable to take her eyes off them. The night is as cool as water. There was a chorus of insects chirping outside the pavilion, the flowers and trees in the garden exuded a fresh atmosphere, the starlight and moonlight came through the window, and the hall was peaceful and peaceful. A strange feeling rose in Baichun's heart. The scene in front of me seems to have been seen at a certain moment in the past, and the impression is still very deep.Knowing that this must be an illusion, the two should have met for the first time in Qingzhu Pavilion. Wu Zixu waited patiently for quite a while, and couldn't help but ask, "How is it?" This sentence fell into Baichun's ears, thinking that Wu Zixu wanted to hear Gu Yueming's praise, but Gu Yueming knew that what he wanted to ask was whether the beauty in the painting had come alive like the first time he saw the painting. Gu Yueming didn't express anything, just sighed and said, "I'm leaving!" Wu Zixu thought he had something secret to say to him, so he hurriedly said, "I'm leaving too! Let me see Brother Gu for a ride." Baichun jumped up, and said happily, "Let me give brother Gu a ride too." Gu Yueming turned around slowly, and said lightly: "No one needs to see me off, I like to walk alone." After that, he moved towards the door. Wu Zixu looked at Gu Yueming's back, then at Baichun who was pouting his mouth, and suddenly yelled as if waking up from a dream: "Brother Gu! Brother Gu!" and chased out the gate. Wu Shuang Nu lightly shakes the scull, and the boat leaves the shore of the lake. Until now, she still couldn't calm down.Encountering the enemy who killed my uncle is only part of the reason.Fortunately, Gu Yueming couldn't recognize her, otherwise his plan of revenge would be in vain. From that night ten years ago, her life no longer belonged to her.Her father's reputation and innocence became her heaviest burden and the only reason to live.Only by returning her father's innocence can she confess to her mother's spirit in heaven, and cast aside the overwhelming burden from then on. The death of her uncle shattered all her hopes, and only hatred remained to support her. However, the most incredible thing happened the moment he caught a glimpse of Goddess Yunmeng just now.All of a sudden, when she "woke up", she was no longer in the Qingzhu Pavilion, but was standing on top of a mountain city, overlooking the boundless hills and plains below, and a river lay in the distance. The moon has not yet risen, the night is as gentle as water, and the mountain breeze is blowing slowly. Suddenly, she felt someone beside her, and looked in horror, the goddess in the painting came alive, standing on the wall about half a foot away from her, looking intently at the night sky, the long hair behind her shoulders undulating like waves, Like a raging flame. Wushuang girl opened her mouth to speak and asked who she was, but she couldn't make any sound.She seems to be there, but she doesn't seem to be there.Like being trapped in a dreamland, the dream is born from the heart, but the dream turns around and controls her heart. The goddess seemed to notice her existence, and slowly turned her head to look at her. Her eyes shone like gems. A heart-piercing misery filled Wushuangnv's heart, and then the world spun, and when she woke up again, she returned to the real world of Qingzhu Pavilion. If Wudun Pirates hadn't named the beauty in the painting Goddess Yunmeng, even though the illusion was so real and aroused her deepest feelings, she could still explain that she fell ill suddenly. But the word "Goddess of Yunmeng" said by the five escaped robbers, like a bolt of lightning piercing straight into her heart, was shocking, and completely shattered her consistent thinking and belief that had never been tested like this.Her world had been turned upside down, and it could never, ever be restored. The goddess of Yunmeng is the goddess of Yunmengze, the beautiful goddess who made the ancient city hidden and disappeared from the world for thousands of years. What does he have to do with her? There is only one way to find the answer, and that is to force Wudun Pirates to reveal the truth.
