Chapter 6 Chapter Six Seeing Cui Nong Again

"I'm Bai Yiling." Hearing these words, Fu Hongxue could only sigh. What else could he do besides sighing?Bai Tianyu obviously has no daughter, and Bai Baiyu's only orphan, originally seemed to be Fu Hongxue, but later turned into Ye Kai. Because of this matter, Fu Hongxue suffered for five or six years, and only after that did he gradually reduce his grief. No matter what, there is one thing that Fu Hongxue absolutely believes in and knows, that Senior Yubai absolutely has no daughter during the day, and his only son is Ye Kai. Last night Ma Kongqun suddenly announced that he would find a husband for Bai Baiyu's only daughter. Fu Hongxue believed that Ye Kai was more surprised than him by this matter.

Fu Hongxue also believed that Ye Kai must have the same mentality as him to keep watching, to see what kind of tricks Ma Kongqun was playing this time?So when this person who was supposed to be Ma Fangling said that he was Bai Yiling, Fu Hongxue immediately put away his surprised expression, and then asked her. "Are you Bai Yiling?" Fu Hongxue said, "Has anyone said that you look like Ma Fangling?" "It's more than a resemblance. Some people say that we are twins." Bai Yiling laughed: "I think you must have been shocked when you saw me just now. You thought you saw a ghost, didn't you?"

"Is ghost as beautiful as you?" This sentence is a standard Ye Kai style, Fu Hongxue can actually say it, and he can't blush, and his ears are not red. As long as she is a woman, she must like to hear others say she is beautiful - this is probably one of women's weaknesses, right?Although Bai Yiling looked fine on the surface, her heart was already "sweetened", and she thanked Fu Hongxue for this compliment with a very faint smile. "Did you really kill Ma Fangling?" Bai Yiling stared at him. "What do you think?" Fu Hongxue said. "You are indeed a murderer." Bai Yiling said, "But I have a feeling that you didn't kill Ma Fangling."

"If Ma Kongqun felt like you, the world would be peaceful." Fu Hongxue said lightly. "You didn't kill people, why do you admit it?" Bai Yilian said. "Who said I admitted it?" "Then why don't you deny it?" "is that useful?" "At least you have to try." Bai Yiling said, "I believe Uncle San is not an unreasonable person." "There is no evidence to prove that I didn't kill the person." Fu Hongxue suddenly thought of Murong Mingzhu who was killed. "There is also no evidence to prove that you killed the person." The wind lifted her hair, like a goldfish in the water wagging its tail.

Fu Hongxue thought for a while, then suddenly asked her: "Can you take me to Ma Fangling's room?" "What are you doing?" "I want to go and see if there are any clues?" Fu Hongxue said. "Okay." Bai Yiling laughed: "But you have to keep up with me." She pinched the horse's belly with both feet, let go of the rein, and gave a soft cry, and the white horse immediately let go and galloped out. Looking at the flaming figure leaving, Fu Hongxue slowly lowered his head, looked at his right foot, and there was another layer of helplessness in his eyes.

Pink. All the decorations are pink, even the curtains are pink. This was the first time Fu Hongxue left a woman's boudoir. When he arrived, Bai Yiling was already waiting for him in the room. He could have arrived before her, but he would rather walk slowly, maybe because of Bai Yiling?Or want to torture your feet?There was a faint virgin fragrance in the room, did it already exist?Or did it float out of Bai Yiling?Fu Hongxue didn't dare to think about this question. He straightened his mind and carefully looked at everything in the room. A polished bronze mirror was placed on a table full of rouge powder boxes, and a few powder puffs were piled up in a mess, and there was also a money orchid with pink flowers on the table.

The quilt on the bed was well folded. Obviously, someone had tidied up this room, so the clue that Fu Hongxue was looking for had already been covered up?Bai Yiling sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Fu Hongxue with great interest. "I don't know what kind of clues you are looking for, but I know that if there are clues, they would have already been found." Bai Yiling said, "Is my guess right?" "A hundred secrets always have a sparse one." Fu Hongxue said lightly, "Dead people can talk, let alone the scene of a murder." "How do you know this is the scene of the murder?"

"Look at the bluestone slabs here, they are very clean, obviously they have been cleaned not long ago." Fu Hongxue pointed at the floor, "If you don't clean the other rooms, why do you only wash the floor in this room?" "Because there's blood on the floor?" "yes." Fu Hongxue squatted down, reached out to touch the bluestone slab, and suddenly found a gray-white hair in the crack of the slate. He picked it up and looked suspiciously. "Ma Fangling is about twenty-two years old this year?" Fu Hongxue said. "Twenty." Bai Yiling said, "Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"A twenty-year-old man may have gray hair, but a twenty-year-old woman..." Fu Hongxue shook his head and put away that gray hair. Of course Bai Yiling also saw the gray hair that Fu Hongxue picked up: "Do you think this gray hair belongs to the murderer?" "Maybe, maybe not." Fu Hongxue smiled, stood up and turned around to leave, Bai Yiling was startled, and asked, "The search is over so soon?" "As you said, everything that should have been found was taken away." Fu Hongxue said calmly, "It seems that this hair is the only clue."

After he finished speaking, he walked out without looking back, and Bai Yiling looked at the back of him leaving, thinking. Thirty thousand matang seemed to be still sleeping in the silence. It seemed that Murong Mingzhu had died in Fu Hongxue's room. No one had found out yet. If they were to know, they would definitely think that he killed him. ——There are indeed many things like this in the world. As long as people think that you have done one thing wrong, then even if you are right, they will also think that you are wrong. excuse. Who was the figure that Murong Mingzhu saw?Since he knew that the murderer was not Fu Hongxue, why didn't he say it in the morning?Was the murderer there?Murong Mingzhu's death was obviously silenced by the murderer who was afraid that he would leak the secret, so why didn't the murderer kill him last night?Why stay until the afternoon?The murderer entered Ma Fangling's room, but she did not scream. Obviously, the murderer was someone she knew well. Maybe the meeting last night was an appointment they had made.

If it was an appointment, why did the murderer kill her?For what reason did you kill her?The room between Ma Fangling and Fu Hongxue was not very far away, but because Fu Hongxue was thinking, his pace involuntarily slowed down. It was so slow that he could hear another footstep, which came from the reception area on the left side of the corridor. Although the sound of the footsteps was slight, they were broken steps, and usually only women would walk like this. As soon as this thought came up, Fu Hongxue smelled a faint fragrance, as light as a lotus flower. What a familiar scent! Along with the scent came a mournful sigh. "Ugh!" The sigh was not long, but it had already tightly grasped a certain "tentacle" deep in Fu Hongxue's heart. This voice...how could it be her?Fu Hongxue's face was blushing because of doubt?Or is it the tentacles deep inside being touched?On the rice paper by the window, a slender figure was slowly reflected, and this figure called softly: "Xiao Fu." What a distant sound?But so close?What an unreal sound?But so real?How long?Probably thousands of years, right?The memory in front of Fu Hongxue's eyes returned to ten years ago like a knife coming out of its sheath. In the same border town, in the same place, Fu Hongxue, who was only eighteen years old at that time, came here with a cursed knife and eighteen years of hatred. That night, just that night... After returning to his room that night, Fu Hongxue lay on the bed without lighting a lamp. He had been completely used to darkness since he was a child. Suddenly a hand reached out in the darkness and took his hand. This is a warm, smooth, soft hand. Fu Hongxue lay quietly, letting this hand hold his hand—the hand that didn't hold the knife. Then a voice sounded from the darkness, a dreamy voice, whispering like a whisper: "Xiao Fu, I have been waiting for a long time." It was a soft, sweet, youthful voice. It was a girl's voice. "You have waited for a long time?" Fu Hongxue said coldly. "That's right." The dreamy voice sounded again: "As long as you can come, no matter how long I wait, it's worth it." At that time, Fu Hongxue didn't know who she was: "Have you prepared everything?" "Everything is ready." The girl said, "Whatever you want, just say it." Fu Hongxue didn't say anything, and his body didn't move. The girl's hands were lighter, and her dreamy voice was softer: "I know what you want..." The girl's hands groped in the dark, and found Fu Hongxue's button. Her hands were light and gentle... Fu Hongxue suddenly felt completely Naked, there is no wind in the room, but his skin shrank and trembled as if in a phoenix. "You have always been a child, now, I want you to become a real man." The girl's voice was like a dream: "Because there are some things that only real men can do..." The girl's lips were warm and moist, and she kissed Fu Hongxue's chest lightly. Her hand seemed to still retain the warmth of that hand on Fu Hongxue's body. There was no wind in the corridor now, but his body was already trembling. Lotus in spring. Fu Hongxue stared at the figure on the window, and that dreamy voice sounded as gentle in the sunlight as it did in the dark. ——The gentle and light hand, the warm and moist lips, the secret and sweet desire... These were originally far away like illusory dreams, but at this moment, at this moment, they all suddenly became real up. Fu Hongxue clenched his hands tightly, and his whole body was already trembling with tension and excitement, but his eyes were fixed on the figure on the window without blinking, and his indifferent eyes were suddenly filled with fire-like enthusiasm. The figure on the window seemed to feel the enthusiasm in Fu Hongxue's eyes, and shuddered for a moment. After a while, that dreamy voice sounded again: "Ten years, have you forgotten me?" How could it be possible to forget?She was Fu Hongxue's first woman, and she was someone he gave wholeheartedly to. Although she later found out that everything she had done to him was a lie, how could he take back what he had paid? ——If you have paid like him, then you will know whether you can get it back. The feelings you give are like poured water, which can only be stopped and never taken back. San Fu Hongxue's body no longer trembled, and his fiery eyes gradually dimmed, replaced by pain. It is a pain that comes from deep in the bone marrow. She was the person I didn't want to see the last ten years, but every time I dreamed back at midnight, it was her. Cui Nong. This name was as far away as a floating cloud in the sky, but it followed Fu Hongxue like a shadow. There have been pains, of course there have been joys, there have been troubles, there have also been sweets, how many sweet hugs have you had?How many gentle caresses?Although all of this has become a thing of the past, but the unforgettable and dream-like emotions after the passion, are attached to his bone marrow like maggots, gnawing at his bone marrow day and night. How many times he wanted to anesthetize himself with alcohol, but could he really anesthetize?Can you really forget?What if you can never forget it?What if I can't forget?So what?Life, what kind of life is this?The reason why people suffer is because human beings are emotional animals. You only have real pain when you're really in love with someone. ——This is one of the greatest tragedies of mankind. The sun is already westward, and the dusk is hazy. Wanmatang seems to be covered with a veil, and the figures on the windows are as hazy as the ink in the painting. "You shouldn't have come ten years ago, and you shouldn't have come again ten years later." The figure said softly, "Why do you still come?" why?Fu Hongxue asked himself countless times, why did he come here?This is not his hometown, and there are no relatives here. There are only memories here. Painful memories! He came here just to taste that painful memory?Fu Hongxue would never admit it. But what about admitting it?So what if you don't admit it? "Although the Wanma Hall ten years ago was destroyed by you, the Wanma Hall ten years later reappeared to destroy you." Her voice was still so soft even though it was separated by the window: "Go, get out of here quickly, Xiao Fu, everything here is absolutely beyond what you can imagine." Walk?Ten years ago, in exchange for ten years of pain. It was only in the past ten years that he deeply realized that besides hatred, there is another emotion more terrifying than hatred in this world. Hatred makes him want to destroy only his enemies, but this feeling makes him want to destroy himself and the whole world. It took ten years of pain to let him know one thing. Between men and women, there is something that must be said. If you don't say it, how will others know?will understand? "I made a mistake ten years ago." Although there was pain in Fu Hongxue's eyes, his voice was calm: "I don't want to make another mistake today." The meaning of this sentence is: "Ten years ago, I let you go by mistake, how can I let you go today?" "you can not--" Obviously, she also knew what Fu Hongxue meant and what he was going to do, but she had no time to stop it. As soon as the window was broken, Fu Hongxue's people had already entered inside, but no matter how fast he moved, he couldn't be faster than Cui Nong. As soon as Fu Hongxue settled down, Cui Nong disappeared like a ghost, leaving only a faint scent in the reception area. If it wasn't for the presence of this fragrance, Fu Hongxue would have thought that just now was another mirage dreamed at midnight. The afterglow of the setting sun passed through the broken window and stayed on Fu Hongxue's face. At this moment, he no longer felt sad or excited, and his face once again looked like it was carved from the ice and snow on the distant mountains. —a kind of ice that never melts. His head was lowered, as if he was looking at the place where she was standing just now, and he seemed to be thinking. At the same time, Ye Kai was also thinking. Although his people have returned to Wanmatang, they are meditating on the roof. Clover was sitting on Fu Hongxue's roof, next to the roof tile that was pierced by a gun, his eyes were fixed on the hole, and everything in the room was under Ye Kai's eyes. Murong Mingzhu, who was stabbed on the ground by the gun, has disappeared at this moment, and the room has been cleaned cleanly, there is no trace of a fight at all, except for this hole in the roof. Where did Murong Mingzhu's body go?Did Ye Kai move it away?If it was Ye Kai, why did he remove the corpse?If not, then who?Fu Hongxue didn't even think about these questions. He left the reception area and went back to the room. Of course, he also saw that the room had been cleaned and Murong Mingzhu's body was gone. He lay on the bed without even frowning, and as soon as he lay down, he saw Ye Kai's eyes. Ye Kai saw Fu Hongxue coming in from the hole, saw him lying down, and saw Fu Hongxue seeing him, but Fu Hongxue didn't even show any surprise. Ye Kai really had to admire him. "Are you human?" Ye Kai didn't know when he got off the roof, but when he walked in from the door, he stood by the bed and stared at Fu Hongxue. "Are you a dog?" Fu Hongxue asked without answering, and only Fu Hongxue would answer with such a sentence. "There has been such a big change in your room, and the corpse suddenly disappeared, are you not surprised at all?" Ye Kai said. "Only dogs are interested in corpses." Fu Hongxue said lightly, "Even if I'm not a human, I can't be a dog, right?" "When you saw me on the roof, you knew that I must know where Murong Mingzhu's body went?" Ye Kai found a chair and sat down: "Why don't you ask me?" "I knew you would tell me, why did you ask?" Fu Hongxue said. "What if I suddenly ask and don't want to tell you?" Ye Kai said. "Then it was useless for me to ask." Fu Hongxue suddenly smiled, "Then you are not Ye Kai." Hearing this sentence, Ye Kai also smiled: "It seems that you know me very well." "each other." Ye Kai smiled again, took out a jug of wine from his arms with a smile, opened the lid of the jug, and took a sip to his mouth, the aroma of the wine immediately filled the room. "After I left Xiao Farewell, I suddenly remembered that I had something to ask you, so I walked towards your room. Before I got to your room, I heard an improbable sound coming from the room. Sound." Ye Kai said: "It was a sound of splashing water, so I immediately went up to the roof, and as soon as I went up to the roof, I found the hole, from which I saw Gongsun Duan moving Murong Mingzhu's body." "Gongsun Duan?" Fu Hongxue was slightly taken aback. "Yes." Ye Kai said: "Of course I followed Gongsun Duan as soon as he left the room, but on the way, I saw you and a woman walking into Ma Fangling's room." "You must not have guessed who this woman is?" Fu Hongxue said. "I couldn't guess it at first, but when I saw her face, I knew why Ma Fangling must die." "Oh?" Fu Hongxue said, "Why did Ma Fangling have to die?" "Because Ma Fangling is not dead, Bai Yiling cannot appear." Ye Kai said. Fu Hongxue looked at Ye Kai, waiting for his explanation. "Although the dead are resurrected, the youth of the living cannot stay forever." Ye Kai said: "Ten years ago, only Ma Fangling was left alive in Wanmatang. Leave a little mark on her face." Fu Hongxue nodded in agreement. "But this time Ma Kongqun and the others look exactly the same as ten years ago, not at all old." Ye Kai said: "If things are to be the same as ten years ago, Ma Fangling must die, but although they have some I know the secret method of resurrection, but I can't make the traces of time disappear." "That's why Ma Fangling had to die." Fu Hongxue said, "That's why Bai Yiling exists." "It should be like this." Ye Kai took another sip of his wine: "I not only heard the conversation between you and that Bai Yiling, but also saw your back. Then she pulled out her own hair and threw it on the ground, then picked it up, saying that it might be left by the murderer." ——It turned out that the gray hair picked up from the crack in the stone slab was pulled out by Fu Hongxue himself. Why is he doing this?What is the purpose of doing this? "I think you must know why I did this." Fu Hongxue said with a smile. "You see that the room has been tidied up so clean, of course you know that there will be no clues left, so you create some clues for the murderer." Ye Kai said: "Of course you know that this clue will definitely reach the murderer. ear, then the murderer will definitely want to cover up the clues with a guilty conscience, or kill you." Ye Kai smiled, and said, "As long as he moves, you can grab his tail." "As long as that murderer is as smart as you, my hair will be sacrificed in vain." Fu Hongxue sighed. "Don't worry, even if he is so smart, he will definitely move." Ye Kai said, "Because he can't take risks." Fu Hongxue thought for a while before saying, "What happened later? Did you see what happened to me in the corridor later?" "I'm the same as you, I only hear voices." Ye Kai said: "In the place where I hide, I can only see the situation in the corridor, but I can't see the inside of the reception area." Fu Hongxue fell into deep thought again. Ye Kai glanced at him, and immediately said: "People can be resurrected after death, and of course the voice will be similar." "That's her voice." Fu Hongxue said, "I can assure you, it's her voice." "Even if she recovers, what can you do?" Ye Kai said, "She doesn't want to meet you, she must With her difficulties in mind, why do you have to torture yourself?" "Who said I was torturing myself?" Fu Hongxue's face was calm, but his heart was already bleeding. Of course Ye Kai knew how he felt in his heart, but so what?Emotional matters cannot be helped by a third party, let alone such unforgettable emotions. Five friends have been together for ten years, and no one else understands Fu Hongxue's feelings better than him. On the surface, he seems to be a very indifferent and aloof person, but in fact, he is more infatuated with emotions, more enthusiastic than anyone else, and desires love more than anyone else. He was trained as a tool of revenge since he was a child, and after a long time, he has built a wall deep in his heart. Although his own emotions can't break free, others' emotions can't get in at all. So the more indifferent and lonely he is, the more he is like this, the more empty his heart is, the indescribable loneliness, the indescribable emptiness, especially when the night is deep and quiet, he is so lonely that he is going crazy. He often can't sleep all night, so he often stares wide-eyed, looking at the endless darkness outside the window until dawn. He also wanted to find a partner who could talk to each other, comfort each other, and understand each other, but he was still afraid to give his emotions. Recently, he often regrets why he was so cruel to Cui Nong. Maybe he has always loved Cui Nong, but he himself refuses to admit it. Why do people always cherish the emotions they have got, but regret it after losing them? ——This kind of pain is the oldest and deepest pain of human beings. Thousands of colorful clouds shot in from the window, illuminating Fu Hongxue on the bed into both light and dark sides. Looking at him, Ye Kai's eyes showed pain again. The person in front of him should have nothing to do with him at all. He might have been a very ordinary person, but due to the selfishness and hatred mistakes of the previous generation, , He became a tool for revenge on behalf of others. Although Ye Kai told the secret later, the misfortune has been left on Fu Hongxue's body. No matter how much Ye Kai makes up for it, it cannot be undone... A sip of wine, half of it flowed into his throat, and half of it overflowed from the corner of his mouth. After wiping his mouth, he spoke again, but what he said had nothing to do with the corridor. "Gongsun Duan is supposed to be a grumpy and strong person, but this time Gongsun Duan is different." Ye Kai said, "Did you feel it?" Fu Hongxue was listening. "Murong Mingzhu died in your room. Instead of making it public, he quietly removed the body and cleaned the room." Ye Kai said, "And when Ma Kongqun questioned you in the morning, he didn't even say a word, even Later, when I forced you out to fight, Gongsun Duan didn't come out." Ye Kai stared at Fu Hongxue, and then said, "What kind of abnormal behavior do you understand?" "I'm listening." Fu Hongxue said. "Today's Wanmatang is definitely not so pure just to kill us." Ye Kai said: "Wanmatang's reappearance must have a bigger conspiracy." "Conspiracy?" Fu Hongxue said, "What kind of conspiracy?" After Ye Kai took another sip of wine, he said, "How much financial resources will it take to restore Wanmatang to the Jianghu? Don't talk about restoring such a large and so many houses to their old appearance overnight, just take Ma Kongqun and the others as examples." , Are they really resurrected after death?" Ye Kai smiled to himself, and said: "Don't talk about you, I don't believe it, but you and I can definitely see that these people are definitely not disguised by others, they are indeed those people back then .” He added: "I went to Xiao Bieli's place in the morning, and his opinion was that these people died and came back to life because of the comet that appears every seventy-six years." "Comet influence?" "He said that in the space we live in, there is a mysterious force in the dark, and this mysterious force is affected by the comet that appears every seventy-six years." Ye Kai said with a smile: " Then this mysterious force manipulated these dead and resurrected people." Ye Kai stared at him: "Do you believe it?" Fu Hongxue pondered for a while before speaking: "Xiao Bieli's words are quite similar to his." "Him?" Ye Kai said, "Who is he?" "Yan Nanfei." "Yan Nanfei?" Ye Kai was startled: "Is that Yan Nanfei, Gong Ziyu's successor?" "Yes." "Isn't he dead?" Ye Kai said, "He died under your knife five years ago." "So many people in Wanmatang can be resurrected at the same time, let alone only one Yan Nanfei." Fu Hongxue said lightly. Say. "It's true." Ye Kai smiled self-deprecatingly: "When did you meet him? What did he say?" After Fu Hongxue went back to his room last night, he heard the singing, and chased him out. When he arrived at the small hill, he encountered those strange phenomena, and then Yan Nanfei appeared, and talked about those mysterious things. In the end, he still couldn't escape the process of dying, and he slowly said it out. . The sun was setting and the earth was gray, and there were already lights flickering in the distance. The brightest star in the northern part of the sky was already blinking. The oil lamp in Fu Hongxue's room hadn't been lit yet, and the two of them were immersed in the twilight. After listening to Fu Hongxue's narration, Ye Kai fell into deep thought, his brows were slightly furrowed, and a ball of light slowly condensed in the depths of his pupils. After Fu Hongxue finished speaking, he just looked at Ye Kai quietly, waiting for Ye Kai's conclusion after thinking about it. I don't know how long it took, when the ray of light in Ye Kai's pupils disappeared, he slowly raised the jug, took a sip, and said: "The beam of light shot out from the hill condensed into a Yan Nanfei." , No one would believe this kind of thing unless they saw it with their own eyes.” "I couldn't believe it when I saw it with my own eyes, let alone heard it." Fu Hongxue said. "In the place where we live, there is another world. This kind of saying is quite similar to Xiao Bieli's saying that there is a mysterious power in the dark." Ye Kai smiled. "According to Yan Nanfei, people who want to enter the 'Fourth World' must die before they can enter." Fu Hongxue said, "This means that all people in the 'Fourth World' are dead and resurrected. " "Like Ma Kongqun and the others?" Ye Kai took another sip of wine: "It seems that we have to accept this fact." "What fact?" "There is a mysterious force in the dark, and there is a 'fourth world' in the space we live in." Ye Kai said with a smile: "Otherwise, what better reason is there to explain what we are encountering now? Everything?" It seems that this is probably the only best conclusion so far. Ye Kai looked at the sky outside the window, it was already dark, it was time for dinner, and it was also the time for Bai Yiling to meet everyone. "I don't know what new tricks Ma Kongqun has for this dinner tonight?" Ye Kai stood up: "According to the situation in the afternoon, Bai Yiling probably chose you." Ye Kai didn't wait for Fu Hongxue to speak, and immediately said, "But don't be happy just now, maybe you will be upset." After finishing speaking, Ye Kai hurriedly slipped out with a smile, he believed that Fu Hongxue's face must be very ugly now.He can make any jokes, but he can't talk about things between men and women. Seeing Ye Kai's back disappearing outside the door, Fu Hongxue sighed softly, and said softly to himself: "You are wrong, if I can't bear this kind of joke again, can I still live till now?" "You're wrong too." Ye Kai's face suddenly appeared at the door again, and he smiled and said, "Don't you think that the small hill is the key to all the secrets?"
