Chapter 30 The Thirtieth Astonishing Disastrous Change

The four people in the room were all shocked when they saw this person jumping through the window, because none of them thought that this person was actually Yu Peiyu. Seeing the two sisters, Yu Peiyu also showed surprise on his face, he immediately slapped Zhu Lei'er's acupoints away, and said in a deep voice, "Quickly untie their acupoints and follow me." Zhu Lei'er didn't say anything, but first asked: "Do you recognize them?" At this time, Yu Peiyu had picked up the man in Tsing Yi and rushed out the door. Zhu Lei'er bit her lip, looking at the two sisters in a daze.

Only Yu Peiyu said outside the door: "Hurry up, hurry up, maybe Yang Zijiang will be back soon, I'll wait for you in the barn over there." Zhu Lei'er rolled her eyes, first picked up the clothes of the two sisters on the ground, threw them on them and then slapped their dumb holes, stared at them with a half-smile and said: "You are only allowed to go out when you are dressed. I don't like women who let my husband see their buttocks, you know?" The two sisters seemed to be startled, the elder sister didn't say anything, but the younger sister couldn't help but asked: "Your husband?"

Zhu Lei'er glanced at her from the corner of her eyes and said, "Do you know my husband?" The elder sister just nodded, and the younger sister said: "We recognize Mr. Yu, but we don't know who your husband is?" Zhu Lei'er's eyes widened, and said: "Young Master Yu is my husband, and my husband is Young Master Yu, don't you understand?" The younger sister sneered and said, "Oh, really, congratulations to you, I thought you were his daughter at first." Zhu Lei'er's face turned blue, and said: "I can see at a glance that you have long been harboring ill intentions for him, but I warn you, if you seduce my husband, I will kill you."

Although the barn was not damp, it was very dark, with rice piled on all sides, only one corner was empty. When Yu Peiyu brought the man in Tsing Yi there, he had already unlocked his acupoints. The man in Tsing Yi also stared at Yu Peiyu, and said: "Your Excellency took such a risk to come to rescue, you must have a good relationship with their sisters." Yu Peiyu was silent for a while, then said slowly: "Although I have a good relationship with them, it is not enough to sell my parents' flesh and blood for them." The man in Tsing Yi shook his body, took three steps back, and said in a low voice, "I don't understand what you're talking about."

Yu Peiyu sighed, and said, "Tang Jue, Second Master Tang, at this moment, do you still want to hide it from me?" The man in Tsing Yi clenched his fists tightly, his whole body trembling. Yu Peiyu sighed: "I have never been able to guess who you are, because I really never thought that Mr. Tang Er would betray his father and his family, but after seeing Jinhua Niang and his sisters, I finally understood, you are just because of Your father refused to agree to your marriage, so he didn't hesitate to do such a thing." He continued sharply: "Your exchange condition is to ask that person to announce his agreement to your marriage after returning to Tangjiazhuang, but you can't think of it. By doing this, you are not only sorry for your father, but also for the ancestors of your Tang family."

Tang Jue retreated step by step, and had already retreated to the corner, and suddenly hissed: "My father is dead anyway, I didn't kill him, but what I did was equivalent to bringing him back to life, my brother The sisters won't be sad, so I didn't do anything wrong, nothing wrong." Yu Peiyu said angrily: "Are you really willing to ask a stranger to be the father of your brothers and sisters? Are you really willing to see your brothers and sisters enslaved by a stranger? Don't you understand that he is the master of your Tang family? After the sect, the century-old reputation of the Tang Sect in Central Shu will be ruined."

Tang Jue's body seemed to have gradually shrunk. She covered her face with her hands and said in a trembling voice, "But do you know how much pain I will suffer if I don't see her? Even if I sink into hell and never recover, I still want to be with her." Together." He suddenly stared at Yu Peiyu again, and hissed: "Do you know how great the power of the word 'love' is? Do you know how many people in the world live only for love? And how many people die for love? ?” He continued with a wry smile: "Of course you won't know, because you never really loved someone, and you don't know what 'love' feels like."

Yu Peiyu couldn't help showing sadness on her face, and said with a wry smile: "Do you think I really haven't loved anyone? Really don't understand what 'love' is?" Tang Jue said: "If you understand, you shouldn't...you shouldn't blame me like this." Yu Peiyu sighed: "Perhaps I understand your difficulties better than others, so even if you elope with Jinhua Niang, I will never blame you, but you shouldn't do such a thing." Tang Jue smiled bitterly and said, "Elope? Do you think elopement is easy?" Yu Peiyu said: "If your emotions are really so deep, why can't you stay away from the world, find a quiet place, and live an ordinary life? Are you still reluctant to part with the prosperity of the world and worldly enjoyment? If you don't even want this Sacrifice, it is not worthy to talk about this 'love' at all."

Tang Jue said: "If it's someone else, of course we can do what you said, but we..." Yu Peiyu said: "What about you?" Tang Jue said: "Do you know what kind of methods the Tang family will use against their children who elope? Even if we escape to the ends of the world, they will definitely chase us back, not to mention the methods of the leader of the silkworm." Yu Peiyu said: "As far as I know, the leader of Tiancan has no objection to your marriage." Tang Jue said: "He didn't object, just because he knew that our marriage would never be successful, so his condition was that I must be married to the official matchmaker, otherwise he would not let Jinhua Niang meet me."

Yu Peiyu said: "But you can still escape." Tang Jue said: "That's right, we can escape, we may be able to escape the Tang family's pursuit, but we will never think about escaping the evil hands of the Tiancan Sect." He continued word by word: "Just because if Jinhua Niang rebelled against the Tiancan Sect, her whole body would fester and die within seven months." Yu Peiyu moved, "Why?" Tang Jue said: "Just because she has been under the silkworm gu by the leader of the silkworm, there is absolutely no cure for it." Yu Peiyu couldn't help sighing, and said slowly: "So you don't hesitate to sacrifice others for your own sake..."

Tang Jue said: "I'm not a wolf-hearted person, and I have my own plans for doing this." Yu Peiyu said: "What are your plans?" Tang Jue said: "I can help them succeed, or I can destroy him. Only I can expose his conspiracy. One day, I will make his conspiracy come to light." Yu Peiyu said: "One day? When do you want to wait?" Tang Jue said: "Of course we have to wait until our marriage is successful." Yu Peiyu said: "But have you ever thought of what he can do before you expose him?" Tang Jue said: "This..." Yu Peiyu sternly said: "Not only can he completely reveal the secrets of Tangmen's hidden weapons, but he can also use Tangmen's disciples as tools to kill people and do evil for him. So I don't know how many people will die because of this, including yours. Sisters included, before you reveal his secret, he has already destroyed all your homes." He continued word by word: "Besides, you simply can't live that long." Tang Jue was stunned for a while, and suddenly tears came to her eyes, and she murmured: "Am I wrong? Did I really do something wrong?" Yu Peiyu said: "Aren't you still willing to admit your mistake?" Tang Jue said: "That day my father asked me to change clothes with you, and put on my mask. Obviously, he wanted to hide it from the eyes of those who made hidden weapons, but in fact, he wanted me and my elder brother to split up to find the leader of the martial arts in your society, Yu Yu. Let the crane..." Yu Peiyu said: "I already know about this." Tang Jue smiled bitterly and said, "Of course he doesn't feel at ease entrusting this kind of matter to others. After all, I am his son, and I have always been a very obedient son, but before leaving, he still warned me repeatedly, asking me to do something about it. Go back when you're done, don't meet with Jinhua Niang, otherwise he will be punished according to family rules." Yu Peiyu said: "You didn't listen to him this time, did you?" Tang Jue said sadly: "If no one else tempted me, I would not dare to resist, but when I found Yu Fanghe, he told me that my father and elder brother were dead. He said that if the news spread Not only will there be chaos in Tangjiazhuang, but there will also be great fluctuations in the martial arts. In order to take care of the overall situation, he has to find someone to pretend to be my father, and maintain a calm situation first." Yu Peiyu said: "So you believed his words?" Tang Jue said: "I also think what he said is absurd, but he said that this way of doing things is really beneficial and has no disadvantages, and it is even more beneficial to me." Yu Peiyu said: "It seems that he not only promised to help you marry Jinhua Niang, but also promised to help you take over the Tang family." Tang Jue lowered his head, and said sadly: "At that time, I agreed to him on a whim, but afterwards I also thought that after I knew his secret, he was afraid that he would kill me to silence him." Yu Peiyu sighed: "Sometimes you are indeed a very cautious person, but sometimes you are too negligent. I'm afraid it's called..." He stopped talking abruptly, and did not say the words "Li Ling Zhi Faint", because he had already realized that this young man was also a very pitiful person, and he couldn't bear to stab him again. Tang Jue said: "Jin Hua Niang and I have always had secret communication methods, so after Yu Fanghe and I made an appointment to meet at Wang Hua Lou, we secretly informed Jin Hua Niang and asked her to come and meet me." Yu Peiyu said: "Your move is not wrong." Tang Jue said sadly: "But I have made the most important move wrong. As the saying goes: Life is like a game of chess. I have made an irreparable big mistake in my life, and I feel ashamed..." Before he finished speaking, Jinhua Niang rushed in, threw herself on him and cried bitterly: "You are not wrong, it was me who was wrong, it was I... who hurt you." Yu Peiyu looked at them, at this pair of lovers whose love had not wavered even in such a difficult and harsh environment. For a moment, Yu Peiyu didn't know what it was like. He didn't know if his emotions would be as firm as theirs if he was in their environment. He only felt that although what they did was hateful, their experience was worthy of sympathy, and their steadfast love was even more worthy of admiration. Zhu Lei'er walked quietly to Yu Peiyu's side and said, "Did you see what I wrote under the car?" Yu Peiyu said: "Yes." He was going to put on a straight face and teach her a few words, telling her not to act so boldly in the future, but seeing her now, he couldn't even say a word. Seeing Zhu Lei'er hanging her head and flicking the hem of her clothes, she seemed to be waiting to be scolded, and she seemed to be waiting for a few words of praise from him, Yu Peiyu could only say softly: "If I didn't see the words you left, how could I find them?" here." Zhu Lei'er smiled sweetly and said, "When did you arrive? Have you ever seen that respondent?" Yu Peiyu also smiled, and said, "No one can see the respondent." Zhu Lei'er rolled her eyes and said quietly: "Could it be that the respondent didn't come at all this time, and you scared Yang Zijiang away?" Yu Peiyu smiled and nodded, then lowered her voice and said, "That's why I'm afraid that Yang Zijiang will go and come back." Zhu Lei'er smiled and said, "Don't worry, he thinks that the respondent is staring at him in the dark, so he will never dare to speak again. By the time he finds out that he has been cheated, we will have gone far away." Although Tie Hua Niang stood far away, she kept staring at her sideways. Seeing them talking softly and laughing quietly, Tie Hua Niang bit her lip and turned her head. Facing the corner, she felt herself It has become redundant here, no one cares about her, and no one cares about her. Although the cries of Jin Huaniang and Tang Jue made her very sad, but the laughter of Yu Peiyu and Zhu Lei'er made her even more uncomfortable. She really wanted to die. Suddenly heard Yu Peiyu say: "Miss Tiehua, I haven't seen you for a few months, you seem to have lost some weight." It was fine if he didn't say this, but now that he said it, Tie Huaniang felt sore in her heart, and she couldn't help but burst into tears. "Since you know that I've lost weight, why don't you know who I'm losing weight for? Since you still care about me, why do you marry someone else?" She really wanted to throw herself into Yu Peiyu's arms and cry as much as she wanted, and she also wanted to bite Yu Peiyu's face hard a few times to taste whether his blood was cold or warm. For a moment, her heart was sweet, sour and bitter, and she didn't know what to say. Who knew that Yu Peiyu didn't wait for her to speak, and didn't come over. Instead, she went to Tang Jue's side. What he said just now The words seem to be just casual words for entertainment. The blood in Tie Huaniang's whole body sank to the soles of her feet, and her heart seemed to be hollowed out by someone suddenly, and she couldn't feel anything anymore. Yu Peiyu didn't seem to understand how much a girl's mood would change in an instant. He didn't pay attention to her at all, but he untied Tang Jue's acupuncture points and sighed: "I don't blame you, but you should I have my own plans." Tang Jue was silent for a while, then suddenly seemed to have made a lot of determination, stood up and said, "I'll go with you." Yu Peiyu said, "Where are you going?" Tang Jue said decisively: "Go back to Tangjiazhuang and expose his secret." Yu Peiyu smiled and said: "Yes, this is what a man does. As long as you are determined, there is absolutely no difficulty in the world that cannot be overcome, let alone something that cannot be resolved." Zhu Lei'er also became concerned, Yu Peiyu's struggle and struggle had finally paid off, and now there was finally a glimmer of light in the gloomy sky. Except for Tie Hua Niang, everyone's spirits lifted. Tang Jue wiped off the dirt on her face, as if she had made up her mind that from now on, she would never be sneaky again, and she wanted to be an upright person with her true colors. Jin Huaniang stared at him infatuatedly, although there were still tears in her eyes, there was a look of relief, there is no woman who does not want her lover to be a man. Zhu Lei'er smiled and said, "We've already wasted enough time, let's go quickly." Yu Peiyu said: "That's right, you can wait until the road to say anything." Suddenly heard a person from the barn say: "That's right, we can wait until the road to say anything." The sound reached their ears, and everyone's expressions changed. Although they also knew that this was definitely not a real answering bug, in their eyes, Yang Zijiang was almost as terrifying as an answering bug. Zhu Lei'er's face turned pale, and she said loudly: "Yang Zijiang, you don't need to play tricks, I know you are back." Jin Huaniang held Tang Jue's hand tightly, and said with a sneer, "You just ran away with your tail between your legs like a dog, do you still have the face to come back now?" Yu Peiyu said loudly: "Yang Zijiang, since you are back, why not come in and see me." Zhu Lei'er was talking to Jinhua Niang, there was not even a single sound outside, but as soon as Yu Peiyu finished speaking, someone outside responded immediately: "Yang Zijiang, since you are back, why not come in and see." Zhu Lei'er gritted her teeth and said, "Yang Zijiang, others are afraid of you, but Yu Peiyu is not. If you have the guts, come in." Jin Huaniang's eyes flickered, and she said, "If you dare not come in, you are not human." No matter what other people said or scolded, the person outside didn't even respond at all, but as soon as Yu Peiyu spoke, the same echo immediately sounded outside. They winked at each other, and suddenly rushed out together. The sun was shining on the earth outside, the yellow dog was still lazily lying in the corner, and there was a cloud in the distant sky, but there was not even half a person around. Yu Peiyu sternly said: "If you feel that I have teased you, why don't you come and fight with me right now." The echo said: "If you feel that I have teased you, why don't you come and fight with me right now." This time the echo had already come from the barn, but when they rushed back to the barn again, there was no one in sight. Zhu Lei'er rolled her eyeballs and whispered: "You stay here, the three of them and I will go outside to guard." Yu Peiyu nodded, and after they all went out, she said loudly, "Yang Zijiang, why don't you show yourself?" Sure enough, the echo sounded again outside the barn, saying: "Yang Zijiang, are you still not showing up?" The sound came from the east side of the barn, Yu Peiyu immediately flew out, and saw Zhu Lei'er, Tang Jue and Jin Huaniang sisters guarding one side each. Standing in the east was Tang Jue, who was looking around with surprise on his face at the moment, and Zhu Lei'er and the others also walked in. Zhu Lei'er said: "Did you hear the sound coming from here?" Yu Peiyu nodded. Jin Huaniang immediately took Tang Jue's hand again and said, "Did you see him?" Tang Jue's face turned pale, and he said in a low voice: "The voice originally came from behind me, but when I turned around, the voice was still behind me. I turned around quickly, and the voice disappeared, and the person seemed Disappeared." Jin Huaniang said: "This time we stand with our backs, let's see what he will do?" Zhu Lei'er sighed: "You are standing here, won't he go over there?" Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, all stunned. After a while, Zhu Lei'er suddenly said again: "I don't think this person may be Yang Zijiang." Tang Jue said, "Why do you see that?" Zhu Lei'er said: "Since Yang Zijiang knew that you were going to expose their secret, he would never let you live, but just now that person didn't attack you." Tang Jue gasped, and said, "If he's not Yang Zijiang, who is he?" Zhu Lei'er said: "It's not Yang Zijiang, of course it's a real respondent..." She was startled when she said this, and leaned against Yu Peiyu involuntarily. Yu Peiyu had been silent for a long time, and at this moment she suddenly said: "In any case, our plan will never change, no matter who he is, since If you don’t dare to come out to meet me, I’m not afraid of him, he imitates me, I don’t care at all.” ※※※ Although Yu Peiyu said so, his heart felt like a stone was pressed, although as long as he didn't speak, nothing would happen. But everyone knew that there was a mysterious and terrifying person following them secretly, spying on them, whenever and wherever, as soon as Yu Peiyu opened her mouth, the echo would immediately sound. This kind of mental burden can really make people crazy. At dusk, they found the most prosperous town, rested in the busiest inn, and went to eat when there were the most people. Yu Peiyu looked around, every table was full of people, he naturally wouldn't see Yang Zijiang, but what about the respondent?Are the answering bugs among these people?Yu Peiyu suddenly said loudly: "Listen, I'm talking again now, so you can say it too." His voice sounded like a gong, everyone in the restaurant was taken aback and turned their heads to look at him inexplicably. They also stared at others, because they wanted to see where the echo would come from this time. Unexpectedly, after a long while, there was not even a sound from around. Everyone was staring at them in a daze, as if they were crazy. The expressions on Yu Peiyu's and the others' faces were really like madmen's. They were both surprised and happy, and they couldn't help laughing.Naturally, others could no longer figure out why they laughed. Zhu Lei'er was so happy that she almost cried out, she barely lowered her voice, and said with a smile: "The respondent has left, did you hear that?" Jin Huaniang and Tang Jue rushed to say, "That's right, we heard that." Others were even more surprised. Why did they say "I heard" when they obviously didn't hear anything?Isn't this crazy what is it? Zhu Lei'er smiled and said: "From this point of view, he is really a response, because if he is Yang Zijiang, he will never leave." Yu Peiyu was obviously still a little worried, and asked tentatively: "Since he is coming to pester me, why did he leave suddenly?" Saying this sentence, there is still no echo around. Zhu Lei'er also waited for a long while before laughing and said: "Maybe it's because he doesn't want to trouble you, but because you borrowed his name, so he came to play a joke on you." Jin Huaniang also smiled and said, "That's right, now he thinks he's done enough joking, and he doesn't bother to follow you anymore." Naturally, they had a very happy meal, but Yu Peiyu still seldom spoke, not because he was still worried about answering people, but because he had few opportunities to speak. With three women at the table, there is no chance for a man to speak. Among the three women, Tie Hua Niang was the most silent one. She had been staring at Zhu Lei'er and Yu Pei Yu, as if she wanted to see if they were really married. When the meal was over, she saw it. Yu Peiyu actually asked for five rooms and said: "Today we must have a good rest, and tomorrow we will have the energy to go on the road and do things with energy." He suddenly smiled at Tang Jue and Jin Huaniang, and said: "Only your two houses are connected, and there is a door in between. Although I have asked for five rooms, I am not a stagnant old man." .” Jin Huaniang glanced at Tang Jue, and both of them blushed. After all, the two of them hadn't officially married yet. Jin Huaniang blushed and said, "Everyone have a good rest tonight, that door will never be opened. of." It was fine if she didn't say that, but when she said it, everyone laughed, even Tang Jue couldn't help laughing, Jin Huaniang blushed even more, and spat: "You are so proud, I will open that door first. Lock it up and see if you're still proud." Before she finished speaking, she laughed herself, and ran into her own room with a coquettish smile, closed the door with a "bang", and refused to come out again. Yu Peiyu patted Tang Jue's shoulder and said with a smile, "Tonight is not over yet, and I'm still growing. Don't worry, there are still many opportunities." He also walked into his room with a smile. Although they are still in trouble now, the most difficult and dangerous period has finally passed, and everyone is in a much better mood. Now it is Tie Hua Niang who is in the best mood. She suddenly smiled at Zhu Lei'er and said: "My elder sister and brother-in-law are not married yet, so they have to sleep separately, but you are already married, why don't you live together?" Seeing Yu Peiyu enter the house and close the door, Zhu Lei'er was already very upset, but when she heard this sentence, her face became even more ugly, and she said angrily: "You don't need to worry about our husband and wife." She also rushed into the house and closed the door heavily. Tie Huaniang looked at Yu Peiyu's door and at the moon in the sky, she suddenly sighed again, and said softly: "Tonight is really long, maybe it's too long..." ※※※ Sure enough, there were two doors in Jin Huaniang's room, one door was in the corridor, and the other door was naturally connected to Tang Jue's room. She lay on the bed without even taking off her shoes, tossing and turning, as if she wanted to fall asleep quickly, but she couldn't help opening her eyes to look at the door. There was no movement behind that door. Did Tang Jue really fall asleep?Could he really fall asleep? Jin Huaniang bit her lip, got up suddenly, and walked quietly to the door, she tiptoed, as if she was afraid of being seen. In fact, there was not even a fly in this room except her. Jin Huaniang herself also thought it was a little funny, she bit her lip and stared blankly for a while, reaching out her hand to knock on the door, but just as she stretched out her hand, she withdrew it again. Up to now, there is still no movement at the door. Jin Huaniang said bitterly: "If you don't come to me, do you want me to look for you first? I just don't want to look for you. Let's see what you do?" While muttering to herself, she was already lying on the bed again. This time she not only took off her shoes, but also took off her socks. She looked at her slender, white feet, and for some reason, her face gradually turned red. No wonder the business of this inn is good, they did tidy up the house very clean, even the bed sheets and quilt covers were newly changed, and they still smelled of soap. The clean sheets rubbed against her skin, the wind gently blew the window, and a faint singing sound could be heard from far away, which seemed to be about resentful women thinking about spring. God, how can you tell her to sleep. Her hand gently stroked her toes, her feet were really numb, but when the smooth toes touched her hand, it felt as if...as if... She couldn't tell what it felt like, except that she blushed even more. At this moment, there was a soft knock on the door, as if someone was knocking on the door. Jin Huaniang jumped out of the bed as soon as she turned over, she didn't even have time to put on her shoes, she wanted to open the door with her bare feet, but just as she stretched out her hand, she retracted it again. She bit her lip, giggled, and said, "I knew you couldn't help it, but the days to come will be long anyway, why should we be in such a hurry to sell official salt as private salt?" There was no sound from the door again, is Tang Jue angry? Jin Huaniang said softly: "It's not that I don't want you to come, but their ears are very sharp. If they heard it, wouldn't they be laughed at again?" In fact, she had long wished to open the door, but since Tang Jue made her wait for so long, she also wanted Tang Jue to be anxious. As long as Tang Jue begged her once - she didn't even need to beg her, just said a word, or knocked on the door again, and she would open the door. But after a while, there was still no sound from the door. Jin Huaniang couldn't help but asked, "Are you angry?" After another half hour, she couldn't help but said again: "Dead man, why don't you speak?" Her voice was getting louder and louder, but the door was getting quieter and quieter. Jin Huaniang suddenly realized that something was wrong, she couldn't care about anything else, she immediately unlocked the door and rushed into Tang Jue's room. ※※※ Tie Hua Niang was lying on the bed, smiling all the time. Her worries and concerns had already been swept away, because Yu Peiyu did not sleep in the same room with Zhu Lei'er. Although Yu Peiyu wouldn't sleep in the same room with her, as long as Yu Peiyu didn't sleep with others, she would be satisfied and happy. She herself also thinks that this kind of mentality is really wonderful, and it's a bit ridiculous, but she doesn't know that most women's mentality is a little ridiculous. When Jin Huaniang was talking, she also heard it, because after all, this is not a very elegant inn, and the walls of the room are not very thick. I heard Jin Huaniang saying: "...Why should we be in such a hurry...don't want to be laughed at..." She couldn't help laughing secretly.Secretly said: "Elder Sister is really good at playing tricks, she already wanted someone else to come, but she still pretended to be anxious." I heard Jin Huaniang saying: "Are you angry...why don't you speak?" Tie HuaNiang thought it was even more funny, and said to herself: "I didn't expect Tang Jue to have two tricks. If he puts on airs like this, the elder sister will not be able to resist going over." Then, she heard the door knocking. She knew that her elder sister finally couldn't help but pass by first. Although she was smiling, her face gradually turned red because she had already thought of... She blushed because she thought too much. But she never imagined that Jin Huaniang suddenly let out an exclamation at this moment. The cry was shrill and terrifying, and it was horrifying to hear. This was no longer the cry of flirting, nor the "voice" that Tie Huaniang had just imagined, she couldn't help but jumped up and rushed out. Zhu Lei'er was also lying on the bed, but she was crying quietly. She was indeed very sad, not because Yu Peiyu didn't let her sleep in that room, but because she felt that Yu Peiyu made her ashamed in front of Tie Huaniang. She doesn't really want to sleep with Yu Peiyu, as long as Yu Peiyu is willing to let her into that room, it doesn't matter if she would rather sleep on the cold ground. She would even rather go in and then climb out of the window, as long as Tiehuaniang can see her and Yu Peiyu walk into a room at the same time, she is satisfied. What Tie Hua Niang was saying, she didn't hear at all. But she heard Jin Huaniang's exclamation, and she also felt that the cry was very strange and terrifying, so she was also startled, jumped out of bed and rushed out. When Zhu Lei'er rushed out, the doors of Yu Peiyu, Jinhuaniang, and Tiehuaniang were all open, and she immediately heard Tiehuaniang and Yu Peiyu's exclamations coming from Tang Jue's room, and then , she heard Jinhua Niang's mournful cry, which was completely cracked. What happened in Tang Jue's room? Zhu Lei'er rushed in without even having time to think about it, and saw Tang Jue's body hanging by the bed, her originally pretty face had now become hideous and distorted, but there was neither blood nor scars on her body , only one hand was tightly clenched, and the veins on the back of the hand were exposed. Seeing that Jinhuaniang has fallen to the ground crying, Tiehuaniang is kneeling beside her, stroking her hair, murmuring comforting words, but her own tears have already flowed down. Yu Peiyu's face was pale, and he looked sad, surprised, and even more angry. His hands were also clenched into fists, and his knuckles turned white from the force. As soon as Zhu Lei'er rushed into the door, it was as if she had been nailed to the ground and could no longer move. There were gradually voices in the courtyard. It was obvious that someone had been woken up and wanted to know what happened here, but there was no one. I really came here to see, because most people who go out know the saying "everyone cleans the door by himself", and no one wants to meddle in other people's affairs and cause unnecessary troubles. At this time Yu Peiyu had already closed the door, his hands were trembling, and he could hardly even insert the latch, Zhu Lei'er couldn't help but leaned over and whispered, "How could he die?" Yu Peiyu only shook her head, but did not answer. He picked up Tang Jue's body and gently placed it on the bed. Tang Jue's body was not even scratched. How did he die? Yu Peiyu pondered, and instead asked Zhu Lei'er, "Is he poisoned? What kind of poison has he been poisoned?" Zhu Lei'er didn't answer either, but took a sip from the teapot on the table, shook her head, licked the teacup again, and shook her head. Yu Peiyu said: "Not poisonous?" Zhu Lei'er said: "No." Yu Peiyu's eyes flickered, and she suddenly wanted to push away Tang Jue's clenched hand, but Zhu Lei'er immediately stopped him, and said in a deep voice, "Let me do it." Tang Jue's hand was held so tightly, as soon as Zhu Lei'er pulled one of his fingers away, blood flowed out, but the blood was surprisingly black. She opened two more fingers, and found that he was tightly holding an iron-cast thorn flower in his palm, and the thorns on the flower had pierced into his palm. Zhu Lei'er heaved a long sigh and said, "What kind of hidden weapon is this? It's so powerful that even I might not be able to stand it." Yu Peiyu's face became more serious, and she said word by word: "This is the poisonous tribulus of the Tang family. When blood seals the throat, it can kill people in the blink of an eye." Zhu Lei'er was stunned: "The hidden weapon of the Tang family, could it be that he—he committed suicide?" Yu Peiyu said: "Three months ago he might have committed suicide, but now..." He didn't finish his sentence, but just looked at Jin Huaniang sadly. There was indeed no need for Tang Jue to commit suicide now. Zhu Lei'er suddenly said loudly: "It must be him, it must be Yang Zijiang." It was already dawn, and Jinhua Niang not only gradually calmed down, but she didn't even show any signs of sadness. She just took out a lot of money and asked the people in the shop to take it to visit the cemetery and buy coffins. As long as the price is fast, she will personally supervise every detail, and change Tang Jue's shroud by herself. No matter how others persuade her, she will neither rest nor ask others to help her. Yu Peiyu and the others sat by the window, watching her busy. Zhu Lei'er said leisurely: "Let her do something, if a person is very busy, he will forget his sorrow." Yu Peiyu said dejectedly: "I'm afraid her sadness will not be easily forgotten." Tie Hua Niang had been sitting with her head bowed, but at this moment she suddenly said, "Do you think it's really Yang Zijiang's murderous hands?" Zhu Lei'er said, "Who else is there besides him?" Tie HuaNiang bit her lip and said, "Why didn't he attack outside that barn?" Yu Peiyu smiled bitterly: "Maybe he thinks we can't escape from his grasp anyway, so he has to torture us for a few more days. He was cheated by me once, and he must get back even the principal and interest." Tie Huaniang was sad for a while, and murmured: "He is indeed this kind of person, and he is the only person who can do this kind of thing." She looked up at Yu Peiyu, and said word by word: "Maybe he is still following us secretly and has not left." Yu Peiyu said: "Yes." Tie Huaniang looked away from Yu Peiyu's face, and stared blankly at a solitary poplar in the yard, that lonely leaf looked so pitiful in the west wind. She lost her mind for a while, and slowly said: "I know that he will never be satisfied with just killing one person. He wants to kill one by one, slowly, until we are all killed." Zhu Lei'er's eyes just turned to the white poplar. After hearing this, she couldn't help shivering. She seemed to feel the chill of the west wind and the bleakness of the earth just like this lonely tree. . After a long time, Yu Peiyu smiled and said, "It's not easy to kill us all." When they thought of Jinhua Niang again, she was no longer in the yard. The west wind was more urgent, Yang Zijiang's indifferent eyes seemed to have merged with the west wind, watching them anytime and anywhere. Zhu Lei'er tightened her skirt and said quietly: "Where did your sister go? Do you think she will..." Before she finished speaking, Tie Hua Niang had already rushed out. Zhu Lei'er sighed, and said sadly, "Once Tang Jue dies, I'm really afraid Jin Huaniang will also..." Yu Peiyu didn't seem to want to hear her say the word "suicide", and cut off: "She seems very strong, and none of her sisters are that kind of weak and incompetent people." Zhu Lei'er said: "If she was sad, I would feel relieved, but she suddenly became too calm, a woman's sorrow will never pass so quickly." Yu Peiyu was very calm, he suddenly found that Zhu Lei'er seemed to have grown up a lot in the past two days, and suddenly became very sensible. 朱泪儿眼波流动，似乎已看出了他的心意，垂着头道：“一个男孩子通常要很久才能变成大人，但女孩子却不同，女孩子通常都比男孩子成长得快些，有时甚至在一夜间就长大了。” 俞佩玉还是沉默着，因为他不知该说什么。 他忽然想起有人曾经说过：“一个女孩子无论多大年纪，只要成了婚，一夜间就会变成大人。” 他不知道朱泪儿说的是不是这意思，也不敢问。 他实在不敢讨论这件事。 幸好这时铁花娘已回来了，金花娘居然也跟着走了进来，她已换了件衣服，不但是崭新的，而且颜色竟也很鲜艳，上面还绣着盛开的牡丹。 无论如何，这绝不是她现在应该穿的衣服，俞佩玉心里在奇怪她为何要换上它，眼睛也不觉盯在这件衣服上。 金花娘眼睛虽仍是红红的，脸上居然也抹了一层薄薄的粉，她在俞佩玉对面坐了下来，竟忽然对俞佩玉笑了笑，道：“你觉得我这件衣服好看么？” 谁也想不到她会在这种时候，说出这句话来。 俞佩玉也怔了怔，只有勉强笑道：“很好。” 金花娘微笑，道：“我母亲曾经告诉过我，一个人若是觉得很脏、很疲倦的时候，最好换上件新衣服，就会觉得舒服些的。” 俞佩玉叹了口气，道：“你真的觉得舒服些了吗？” 金花娘却似乎没有听到他这句话，只是轻轻抚摸着衣服上的牡丹，忽又向俞佩玉嫣然一笑，道：“这朵花是我自己绣上去的，这件衣服连小唐都没有看到我穿过，你……你还是第一个看到我穿这件衣服的男人。” 她轻柔地说着，朱泪儿在旁边简直听得怔住了，心想：“她为什么要对俞佩玉说这些话，难道唐珏刚死还不到半天，她就想来勾引别的男人了么？” 朱泪儿眼睛又瞪大了起来，她虽也知道这种可能并不大，但还是忍不住要这么想，还是忍不住要生气。 只听金花娘又道：“听说这里厨子最拿手韵菜是麻辣子鸡、东安鸭块、大蒜鲢鱼和回锅肉，我已吩咐他们送来了，大家都累了一天，应该好好喝两杯。” 她未来的丈夫刚死，她居然就要喝两杯了。 朱泪儿忍不住大声道：“你吃得下吗？” 金花娘笑了笑，道：“人死不能复生，我们又何必太难受，死者已矣，活着的人，就应该分外保重才好，否则死者在九泉之下也不瞑目的。” 这些话本该是别人说来劝她的，现在她反而说来劝别人了，朱泪儿也不禁听得目瞪口呆。 这时店伙果然已将酒菜全都捧来，金花娘自己上菜，自己倒酒，然后高举起酒杯，嫣然道：“来，我们大家先干一杯。” 俞佩玉迟疑着，他似乎已发现了什么，又似乎想说什么，金花娘倒酒的时候，他一直在注意着金花娘的手。 朱泪儿却在一直注意着俞佩玉的眼睛，她以为俞佩玉也许不会喝这杯酒，但俞佩玉却已举杯一饮而尽。 他嘴边的话，也随着这杯酒一举咽了下去。 金花娘道：“朱姑娘你……” 朱泪儿大声道：“你有心情喝酒，我却没有这心情。” 金花娘笑了笑，道：“无论如何，这杯酒我总是要喝的，朱姑娘你……” 朱泪儿冷冷道：“无论如何，这杯酒我都不喝。” 金花娘还是很温柔地笑着，凝注着手里的酒杯，琥珀色的酒，在阳光下看来浓得就像是血。 她温柔的笑容中渐渐露出了一丝辛酸之意，曼声道：“劝君更进一杯酒，西出阳关无故人……” 她将这杯酒很快地喝了下去，忽又笑道：“我怎么能说无故人呢？我至少还有小唐。” 铁花娘刚端起酒杯，酒杯已“当”地跌在地上，跌成粉碎，她脸上颜色也已惨变，失声道：“大姐你……” 金花娘柔声道：“我很好，我很快乐，我实在从来也没有这么快乐，因为我知道以后永远都要和他在一起了，再也没有人能分得开我们。” 朱泪儿这才吃了一惊，抢过她面前的酒杯，俞佩玉已耸然站起，金花娘温柔地拉住了朱泪儿的手，道：“你不用尝，这杯酒并没有毒。” 朱泪儿道：“但你……你……” 金花娘柔声道：“毒，已经在我心里，在我看到小唐死了的那一刻，我已……” 她没有说完这句话。 至少，她死得并不痛苦，活着才痛苦。 ※※※ 又将近黄昏了。 西风在呜咽，远处的流水也在呜咽。 朱泪儿望着新堆的坟墓，忽然放声痛哭起来，最后不停地说着：“我为什么不喝那杯酒？为什么不喝那杯酒？” 乌云掩去了落日，像是夕阳也在吝惜着它最后一抹颜色，不肯让人们在黑暗前享受最后一刻光明。 虽然没有雨，但天色却比有雨的时候更沉重。 朱泪儿流泪道：“原来她早巳抱定了必死之心，我为什么却看不出，为什么不知道？为什么还要怪她……” 俞佩玉只是望着面前的一抔黄土，想到那一双多情的男女，为什么多情男女的归宿总是一抔黄土？ 他悄悄擦了擦眼睛，道：“走吧？” 朱泪儿抬起头，嗄声道：“走吧？你难道只有这两个字可说？” 俞佩玉沉默了很久，黯然道：“我还有什么可说，我还能说什么？” 铁花娘忽然道：“至少我们不应该在这里流泪？” 朱泪儿道：“为什么？为什么？” 铁花娘四下望了一眼，似乎在寻找着隐藏在西风中，隐藏在暮色中的魅影，然后，她一字字道：“因为他若看到我们在痛苦流泪，一定会觉得很欢喜，我们为什么要让他欢喜？我有眼泪为何不能到别处去流？” 任何人都可以猜出她所说的“他”是什么人。 朱泪儿的目光，也不禁四下望了一眼，暮色中难道真有一双冷酷而带着讪笑的眼睛，在看着他们流泪。 俞佩玉用衣袖擦去了石碑上一点泥痕，道：“走吧。” 朱泪儿霍然站了起来，道：“走。” 连第一粒初星都还没有升起来，现在正是天地间最黯淡的时候，他们沿着呜咽的流水无言地走了段路。 俞佩玉走得撮快，而且每一步都踏得很重，他似乎想将脚下的泥土踩碎，将整个大地都踩碎。 唐珏终于还是死了。 俞佩玉惟一的希望又已断绝。 他几乎已完全绝望，要完全放弃，因为他无论怎么奋斗，怎么挣扎，对方只要轻轻一挥手，就将他的希望打击得粉碎。 乌云下的山岳，看来是那么庞大，那么神秘，那么不可撼动，他的对手却比山岳更强大，又如乌云般高不可攀，不可捉摸。 任何人遇着这样的对手，都只有自认失败。 朱泪儿虽已赶到他的身旁，却不敢说话，因为她很了解他此刻的心情，她不知该说什么。 也不知过了多久，俞佩玉忽然大声道：“我为什么要放弃？这次我就算已经失败，但下次我还有机会，下次就算又失败，还有再下次，是么？” 他这话虽是在对自己说的，但朱泪儿还是仰望着他，目光中充满了柔情，也充满了赞许，柔声道：“不错，只要我们没有倒下去，总有一天，我们要将他们打倒下去的。” 俞佩玉迎着风，挺起胸膛，道：“不错，一定有那么样一天。” 他接着道：“现在唐珏虽已死了，但我们还是要赶到唐家庄去，我们绝不能让那'赶骡子的'在那里作威作福。” 听到“赶骡子的”这四个字，朱泪儿也不觉展颜笑了，道：“对，我们一定要令他再回去赶骡子，铁姑娘，你说……” 她刚回过头去唤铁花娘，语声就突然顿住，就像是有呷双无形的，冰冷的手忽然扼住了她的喉咙。 铁花娘并没有在他们后面。 铁花娘竟忽然不见了。 ※※※ 他们沿着流水走过来，铁花娘本来一直跟在他们后面的，她似乎不愿插在俞佩玉和朱泪儿中间，又似乎怕惹朱泪儿讨厌，所以始终跟他们保持着一段距离，但这段距离并不算太远。 现在，朱泪儿极目望去，只能瞧见粼粼的波光银带般伸展到远方，已瞧不见铁花娘的人影。 朱泪儿的手脚都凉了，大声唤道：“铁姑娘，铁花娘，你在哪里？” 西风中也隐约传来一阵阵呼唤：“你在哪里？……你在哪里？” 但这只不过是朱泪儿自己的回声而已。 俞佩玉脸色也变了，翻身掠出，又掠回，拉起朱泪儿的手，再沿着流水向来路掠了回去。 黯淡的天空不知何时已有了星光，星光照着流水，流水映着星光，小溪旁比别的地方似乎亮得多。 但他们还是瞧不见铁花娘的人影。 朱泪儿的手已冷得像冰，但她却觉得俞佩玉的手仿佛比她更冷，她紧紧握住了他两根手指，道：“你想她……她会不会不告而别？” 俞佩玉道：“她为什么要不告而别？” 朱泪儿咬着嘴唇，道：“那么她……她难道已经被杨子江……” 俞佩玉忽然俯下身，自地上拾起了一只绣鞋，朱泪儿认得那正是铁花娘的鞋子，她的喉头立刻被塞住。 铁花娘在的时候，她只希望铁花娘走远些，越远越好，只要铁花娘瞧了俞佩玉一眼，她就觉得不舒服。 但现在铁花娘却“走”了，永远再也不会回来，朱泪儿却只觉得悲哀，她望着这只绣鞋，眼泪又已流下了面颊。 她在小溪旁挖了个坑，将这只绣鞋埋了下去，忽然道：“她也许只是自己走了，也许并没有遭杨子江的毒手。” 俞佩玉长长叹息了一声，黯然道：“也许。” 朱泪儿道：“她若是真的被杨子江害死了，我们为什么没有听到一点声音，她就算无力抵抗，至少总能发出呼喊才是。” 俞佩玉沉重地点着头道：“不错。” 朱泪儿道：“何况，人死了也有尸体的，而我们非但找不到她的尸体，简直连一点痕迹都看不到，难道她会忽然……” 说到这里，朱泪儿忽又掩面痛哭起来，嗄声道：“我何必自己骗自己，她明明遭了杨子江的毒手，我自己骗自己又有什么用？我早就知道杨子江绝不会放过她的，我知道他绝不会让我们活着到唐家庄，早巳决心要将我们一个个地杀死。” 俞佩玉沉默了很久很久，道：“走吧。” 朱泪儿跳了起来，道：“对，我们走，去找他。” 俞佩玉道：“我们不去找他。” Zhu Lei'er said: "Why?" 俞佩玉道：“我们等着他来找我们。” 朱泪儿咬着嘴唇，叹道：“不错，他既然一定会来找我们，我们何必去找他，可是……” 她仰面望着俞佩玉，道：“我们难道就在这里等着么？” 俞佩玉道：“我们到唐家庄去，无论怎么样，我们都非去不可。” 他的神情是那么坚决，无论什么人看到他的这种决心，都会知道世上绝没有任何事能令他决心动摇的。 朱泪儿也被他的决心感动了，也变得坚强起来，大声道：“对，我们活着要去唐家庄，死了变鬼，也要到唐家庄去。” 她说话的声音那么大，像是生怕那隐藏在暗中等着杀他们的人听不到，又像是要让天下的人都知道他们的决心。 俞佩玉赞许地拍了拍她肩头，拉起了她的手，再也不肯放开，因为他生怕一放开她的手，她也会像铁花娘一样忽然自地面上消失，虽然他也知道以他们两人之力，也未必是那可怕敌人的对手。 ※※※ 此后的路途走起来更艰苦了。 他们绝不敢有丝毫疏忽大意，因为他们都知道任何一个微小的疏忽，都可以造成致命的结果。 杨子江随时随地都可以自黑暗中一掠而出，以他那不可思议的武功，向他们作致命之一击。 可是，天已渐渐亮了，杨子江竟一直都没有现身。 他们中午时，在一个村落中停留了片刻，吃了些东西，又往前走，直走到黄昏，杨子江还是没有出现。 现在，距离唐家庄已很近了。 黄昏，他们到了个小镇，俞佩玉忽然道：“我们在这里歇一夜，明天早上再到唐家庄去。” 朱泪儿温柔的望着他，轻轻叹息着道：“你实在应该好好地睡一觉了，否则怎么有精神做事。” 小镇上的客栈生意并不好，店伙巴结地替他们找了两间上房，但俞佩玉瞧了朱泪儿一眼，说道：“我们只要一间屋子。” 朱泪儿的心跳了起来，那店伙看来是既失望，又惊讶，他怎么看这两人也不像是一对夫妻。 关起房门后，朱泪儿的心跳得更厉害，坐也不是，站也不是，似乎不知道该将自己放在那里才好。 俞佩玉小心地拴上门，又关起窗子，才对她温柔的一笑，道：“你睡吧。” 朱泪儿垂着头，鼓起勇气道：“你呢？” 俞佩玉笑道：“这两张椅子拼在一起，就是张很舒服的床了。” 朱泪儿咬着嘴唇，道：“你睡床，你比我更需要好好睡一觉。” 俞佩玉望着她纤弱的身子，凌乱的头发，和那双已微微有了些红丝的美丽的大眼睛。 他心里忍不住生出一种怜惜之意，心想：“杨子江说不定立刻就会出现的，此时此刻，我何必再守着那些死规矩，为何还要令她痛苦，为何不让她好好睡一觉，我今天晚上若和她睡在一张床上，难道我俞佩玉就不是君子了么？” 朱泪儿拿了床较薄的被，铺在椅子上，垂着头勉强一笑，道：“我在这里睡也很舒服，在我照顾三叔病的时候，就算站在那里都能睡得着的，我早就习惯了，你好好睡吧。” 俞佩玉忽然柔声道：“这张床很大，我们又都不是胖子，为什么不一起睡呢？” 朱泪儿手里刚拿起个枕头，枕头又掉了下去，她似乎想看俞佩玉一眼，却又没有勇气垂着头道：“你……你不怕……” 俞佩玉不让她说下去，抢着道：“我怕什么？你睡着了难道还会打人么？” 朱泪儿也笑了，脸上却泛起了一阵红霞，道：“我不会打人，做梦时却会踢人，小心我将你踢下床去。” ※※※ 那张床实在并不太大，普天之下，任何一家客栈里，都不会为客人准备一张很大的床的。 因为客人们也并不需要一张很大的床，若有男女两个人要睡在一张床上，他们只希望床越小越好。 俞佩玉实在太累，很快地就睡着了。 朱泪儿上床的时候，全身都紧张得像一张弓，她非但不敢去看俞佩玉，简直连俞佩玉盖的棉被都不敢碰。 前天晚上，她一心只想和俞佩玉睡在一起，但现在他们真的睡在一起了，她反而像是害怕得要命，用棉被紧紧地裹着身子，缩在角落里，耳朵贴在枕头上，只听得自己的心在“怦怦”地跳。 俞佩玉万一伸手过来，那怎么办呢？ 朱泪儿不敢想，却又忍不住要去想，一想，她全身都发起热来，实在再也盖不住棉被，却又不敢不盖。 幸好俞佩玉已睡着了，朱泪儿才敢悄悄将脚伸到棉被外透透气，但俞佩玉一翻身，她又吓得立刻将脚缩了回去。 但是看到俞佩玉就在她身旁，她全身都充满了幸福之意，她恨不得跳起来放声高呼，让全世界的人都知道今夜，但此刻若真有人来了，她又立刻会羞得躲在床下去。 这就是少女——少女实在是幸福的。
