Chapter 7 Chapter Seven Waiting

The feeling of waiting is always so long, what's more, the place where Wuji is waiting is a stone room sealed on all sides. When Tang Ao brought Wuji here, he walked on the dark and narrow stone road, and said to Wuji: "This looks like a prison cell, do you dare to stay here and wait?" For Wuji, there was nothing he dared to do. Risking his life to come to Tangjiabao was already an extremely daring act, so why would he be afraid to go to a small stone room?So Wuji snorted and said, "I have nothing to fear." Tang Ao said: "Aren't you afraid that I will lock you up here?"

Wuji said: "Since you have found out my identity, it is extremely difficult for me to leave Tangjiabao. It is you who said that I should go back. Now if you really want to lock me up here , I can only admit it." Tang Ao said: "Well said, let me tell you, this is the place where our Tang family discusses confidential matters. There are thick stones on all sides, and no one will overhear." Tang Ao brought Wuji into the stone room. There was a stone table and six stone chairs in the stone room. Someone had brewed a pot of hot tea on the table and placed it on it. Tang Ao said to Wuji: "Someone will bring dinner later. After you have eaten, that person will come to meet you. As long as you close the stone gate, no one will come to harass you. After you meet, You can talk for as long as you want, but remember, when you leave, you can only walk alone."

Wuji said, "What if we leave alone?" Tang Ao said: "I have already ordered you to join me. If you go alone, you will not be stopped from leaving Tangjiabao. If there are two people, you will be shot or killed, and no matter what method you use." Wuji said, "Who are you going to leave behind?" Tang Ao said: "You will know soon." Now, the tea has been drunk, the food and wine have just been delivered, but Wuji seems to have passed three days and three nights. During this period of time, he restrained himself from guessing who came, and let himself analyze Tang Ao's actions wholeheartedly.

Tang Ao is going to attack Dafengtang, which stronghold will he attack first?What method does he use to attack? Wuji imagined several defensive methods, various methods used in different strongholds, but he realized that the key point is not how to defend, but to know where Tang Ao will attack first?Because Wuji is leaving tomorrow, the first place to reach the stronghold is Panlong Valley, but he can also take a detour, and he can reach Shangguanren's castle first in half a day. This half day is a very terrible time, because if he goes to Panlong Valley first, and Tang Ao attacks Shangguanren's castle first, Guo Guanqun, who is in charge of the castle now, has not taken precautions in advance, and if he is caught off guard, the castle may be captured very easily .

If Wuji went to the castle first and Tang Ao attacked Panlong Valley first, wouldn't the consequences be the same?Moreover, does Shangguan Ren have a chance to notify the people in the place Tang Ao is going to attack? There is another thing that worries Wuji, he is afraid that the person who will come to see him later will be Shangguan Ren. He was worried that Tang Ao would also find out the real purpose of Shangguan Ren's coming to Tangjiabao, so he let him meet Shangguan Yan here, and then Tang Ao only let him go, not Shangguan Ren. Besides, Wuji couldn't think of anyone else who deserved Tang Ao's stay in Tangjiabao.

Wuji's heart was in a mess, he wondered if he would turn into a doll and be played with by Tang Ao. At this time, Wuji suddenly felt Houmei, regretted that he didn't study hard back then, he was too playful and too greedy for pleasure, he was very embarrassed, why didn't he pay more attention to tactics and strategies back then. Like now, Tang Ao has arranged everything well, and letting him return to Dafengtang seems to have no change in the situation of the battle. This means that Tang Ao is better than him in terms of tactics and strategy. Tangjiabao is really a terrible place, not as easy to deal with as he imagined at the beginning, he suddenly discovered the greatness of his father, and devised the plan of the white jade tiger to go undercover, but he wondered if his father's sacrifice was worth it, Because Tang Ao is such a powerful person, if he really finds out Shangguan Ren's intentions, or if he has doubts and doesn't trust Shangguan Ren, all sacrifices and plans will come to naught.

That kind of sacrifice is not as valuable as a vigorous fight to the death on the battlefield. Thinking of this, Wuji actually felt a little sad. At this time, he heard slight footsteps, and he knew that the person who was coming had finally arrived. After waiting for less than two hours, Wuji felt that the time was too long. For Wei Fengniang who had been waiting since the morning, the long time could only be described as the world seemed to stand still. Wei Fengniang's waiting mood and anxiety were recorded in her diary. The second day of May. Although I didn't go to bed until dawn yesterday, I didn't even feel sleepy at all. I tried to sleep by myself, but I tossed and turned.

The crowing of roosters in the distance sounded very annoying to me, because it meant that the day had just begun, but my heart was anxious to meet that person, who might be Wuji people. After three crows, I decided not to sleep anymore. I got up, walked to the dressing table, and faced the bronze mirror. I began to imagine that the person I saw was Wuji. I stared at the bronze mirror and watched the reaction on my face. I have repeatedly controlled my emotions, so that my expression in the mirror is as usual, and I practiced again and again until I think that if that person is really Wuji, my face will not change, just like seeing a stranger Same, I just stopped.

Xiao Donglou sent someone to ask me to have breakfast, but I didn't go, I pretended to be asleep and ignored it. I immediately regretted it, what if I was with that person at breakfast? I rushed out of the room and ran to the place where Xiao Donglou lived. I knocked on the door, and Xiao Donglou knew it was me, and told me to open the door and go in. I saw him and immediately asked him when he was going to meet the man. Xiao Donglou said to me in a mocking tone: "Look at Nai's anxious state, it seems that that person must be Zhao Wuji." I ignored his ridicule to me, I asked him again and again, when is it.

Xiao Donglou said: "Tang Ao just sent someone to inform me that he invited me to have lunch at noon, but he only invited me alone." I asked him why, and he said that he didn't know either. I asked him to make an appointment with Tang Ao when he had lunch. He said he would definitely do it. He looked at me for a while and asked me if I was okay last night Sleep well, I said yes, he wanted me to sleep well. How can I sleep? I sat by the window all morning, sometimes recalling the happy times I had with Wuji, and sometimes went to the mirror to practice facial expressions. As it got to noon, my heart beat faster and faster. I found that I was still so nervous, and I started to worry again, worried that I would still not be able to control my emotions.

I didn't have lunch, I was anxiously waiting for Xiao Donglou's reply. Time flies so slowly, fortunately, no matter how long the wait is, you will still wait for what should come. Xiao Donglou sent someone to tell me that Tang Ao wanted me to meet that person at night. Why is it 7 in the evening and why do I have to wait? It's a real torment. The wait in the afternoon was longer than in the morning. I thought of the afternoon when I was going to visit the church with Wuji. I was afraid it would be a long afternoon. Thinking of the tragedy that happened before the visit, I couldn’t help but worry. Will today’s waiting be worth the price again? As in that day, there will be tragedy. I was so anxious to death. Finally, when dusk came, the Tang family sent a servant to ask me to go, and my heart became tense again. The servants took me to a room and told me to wait there. Waiting again. Someone came, I thought it was the person I wanted to see, or the servant, he kicked the food in. I saw that there was only one pair of chopsticks. Why was there only one pair of bowls and chopsticks? What about after the meal? Did you take me to P and the servant said he didn't know anything. I was really anxious and angry, why am I in the mood to eat at this time 7 But I didn't ask the servant to kick the food away, he was just a servant, he just obeyed orders, I didn't even mean to blame him, I still Thank you softly. The dishes are very fragrant, very authentic Sichuan cuisine, but I really don't have any appetite. I wandered up and down the room. Suddenly, I heard a quarrel coming from the next door. I walked to the door, stretched out my hand, and walked to the next door. When I got to the window, I heard two people arguing, one was a voice I hadn't heard before, and the other I had heard. At first I couldn't remember who the voice was, but I immediately remembered that this person was a fat man named Tang Que. Here's what I heard them arguing about: Tang Que: I advocate the administration of Zhaojiazhuang first. Another entry: why? Tang Que: Zhao Jian died, and Zhao Wuji lost Cong again. Zhaojiazhuang must be in chaos. Attack Zhaojiazhuang first, and it will definitely be taken down. The first battle is won first, and it will be easy to win, which will improve morale. Another person: If we attack elsewhere, we will not be able to attack? Our morale is not high enough? Tang Que: That's not what I meant. Another person: Let me tell you, attacking Zhaojiazhuang is useless. Tang Que: Why didn't it work? Another person: Zhaojiazhuang belongs to the rear forces of the Dafengtang. The government will first govern the rear, so that the various strongholds in the front will be prepared. Moreover, our troops will be too tired after a long journey. Tang Que: Then where do you want to go to politics? Another person: The stronghold of Xianzheng Sikong Xiaofeng, firstly, the distance is short, and secondly, we have the most bribes there, and we should cooperate internally and externally, so it will be easier to capture than Zhaojiazhuang. I don't want to remember their conversation anymore, anyway, they have been arguing about where to attack, no matter where they rule first, it is a very serious matter for me, because every stronghold belongs to my husband's family Dafengtang. At the end of their argument, Tang Que said angrily: "Nai is my elder brother, I listen to Nai." I just found out that this person is Tang Ao. Sikong Xiaofeng's Fengbao is where Tang Ao is in charge, and the time is the fifth day of May. I already knew your secret, so I hurried back to the original room, picked up my chopsticks and pretended to eat, my heart was pounding, but luckily no one came in right away, otherwise my expression would definitely reveal the secret of my pleasure. Let me roughly calculate the distance. Today is the second day of junior high school, and it will take at least two days to get to Fengbao. Is there any way I can inform Uncle Sikong 7 I think of Xiao Donglou, he is the most capable person, I must go back to the inn to find him now, and ask him to help me inform Uncle Sikong. Will Xiao Donglou agree to my request? I think so, as long as I speak in a gentler tone, he will definitely listen. I quickly put down my chopsticks and was about to go out. I only walked halfway to the door, and the door was pushed open. I jumped in fright and screamed in fright. The man who pushed the door said sorry to me and said he should have knocked first. I looked at him, he was very strong, tall and handsome, with a heroic look between his brows. He said his name was Tang Ao. I was about to tell him my name, but he snatched it up and said that he knew I was Zhao Wuji Weitang's wife, Wei Fengniang. He also said that it was not his own intention to invite me, but Xiao Donglou begged him. I have a crush on Xiao Donglou, but what Tang Ao said later left me stunned. He said, Xiao Donglou originally wanted me to verify it, but there was a person who didn't know if it was Zhao Wuji, but he said that there was no need to verify it now, because that person had already admitted in front of him that he was Zhao Wuji. I hurriedly asked him what happened to Wuji. He smiled and said it was nothing, and asked me to see him. Oh, I was so touched by what he said, but I then thought, if he let my son Wuji, there might be some conspiracy. Tang Aojian, would I like to see Wuji. Of course I said yes, and then I immediately asked him what is the purpose of asking me to meet Wuji. He is very honest, he said it was purposeful and conditional. I asked him what the conditions were, and he said that after the interview, he could only let one of us leave Tangjiabao, and it was up to me to decide who to let go. I know what he means, he kills Wuji for my reasons, he must think that everyone will cherish their own life, let a person go, and make their own decisions, everyone will choose themselves. But I am not. Wuji is dead, Dafengtang was wiped out by Tangjiabao again, what's the point of watching me live? Go to Tangjiabao to attack the secret of the strong wind, as long as I see Wuji and tell him the news, he will rush to Fengtang and join forces with Uncle Sikong, and he will definitely be able to defeat Tangjiabao. Since letting Wuji go has so many benefits, why don't I choose him to go? So I said to Tang Ao, I will stay. Tang Ao repeatedly asked me whether I was a party member or not, and I said it was true. Then, he said he took me to see Wuji. He led me out of the room, turned right, walked 25 steps along the viewing corridor, turned left, walked 17 steps, stopped in front of a gazebo in the garden, walked up to the gazebo, turned a stone chair on the right, The stone table in the gazebo was slowly moved away, revealing a hole in the ground. He walked down first, and I went down after him. We walked up a total of sixteen stairs, turned right, and on the right was a very long stone path, with twelve torches inserted on both sides. I wonder if he Wuji is locked up here. He laughed and said no, Wuji himself agreed to come here, and said that this is not a prison cell, but a place where the Tang family holds secret meetings. The reason why he chose this place for us to meet is to show that our conversation will never be listened to by others. He laughed and said that letting other people listen to his love words is a terrible thing. i blushed o, Tang Aozhao watched me walk to the end of the stone path and turn left. There was another stone path with twelve torches inserted on both sides. However, at the end of the stone path there was a slightly open stone gate. Tang Ao looked at Shimen and said to me: Wuji is inside, I won't fight against you anymore. After speaking, he looked at me with a smile, then turned around and left. I stood and looked at Shimen, my heart beat faster and faster, and when I took the first step, my heart beat faster. Ah, Wuji, I'll see you soon. I finally walked in front of the stone gate, and I pushed the stone gate open. When I pushed the door, a thought suddenly popped up in my mind. Once I went in, would Tang Ao be mercury? Keep Wuji and me locked away? This thought just passed by in a flash, because I immediately told myself that Wuji and I could be locked up here forever, that was the blessing of my several lifetimes of cultivation. The doors were all pushed open, I thought I would pass out, but Feng found that I still had a considerable degree of composure. When I saw Wuji, the first thing I saw was his eyes. I found that the first time he saw me, he was stunned, and then excited, which means he didn't know it was me who came. Why didn't Tang Ao tell him, was it to make him suddenly excited? I didn't think about it anymore, because I saw Wuji smiling and standing up from the stone chair, and walking towards me, he stretched out his hand, and I stretched out Take my hand and walk towards him. I felt a shiver of pleasure when his hand touched mine. Smell, I feel how happy I am. Wuji took my hand and pulled me closer to him. He kicked me for a long time, and only when I blushed did he tell me that I lost weight. The same to you.I say. He smiled slightly, took my hand, and helped me sit on the stone chair. Then, sitting opposite me, he poured a glass of wine for me, raised the glass in front of him, and looked at me. I raised the glass and put it on my shoulder. If this was the cup of wine, it would be great. I took a shallow sip and put it down. Wuji looked at me with a bewildered expression, and then he asked me why I came to Tangjiabao. I told him everything after the farewell, and he also briefly told me about him. At this time, I remembered a very important thing, that is, I overheard what Tang Ao and Tang Que said. Said it to Mowgli. After Wuji listened, he pondered for a long time. I looked at his expression, and I knew that his heart must be at war and in pain. I comforted him and said that I would be fine if I stayed in Tangjiabao, because with Tangjiabao's reputation in the world, how could they bully me, a weak woman? Wuji also said that what I said was very reasonable, but he was still a little worried, what did I worry about. He said: I am afraid that Tangjiabao will use milk as a hostage. As long as we defeat the Tang family in Dafengtang, they will use you to threaten us in turn. I resolutely said to Wuji: Don't worry, if they want to use me as a hostage, you ask them to see me first before making a decision. Wuji asked me why. I said: When the time comes, for Dafengtang, for you.I will sacrifice, and I will not let the people of the Tang family succeed. In this way, you can put your whole heart and soul on the field and don't have to worry about me anymore. Wuji stopped talking, I saw his eyes were very sad, he picked up the wine glass and drank one after another. I didn't stop him, but when he had drunk the third cup, I said to him: Don't forget, you still have to report to Uncle Sikong. He immediately put down his wine glass and looked at me with eyes full of emotion. I smiled at him, knowing that my smile must be bitter. I couldn't help but picked up the glass and drank the wine suddenly, because it suddenly occurred to me that this night might be the last night that Wuji and I met. Wuji seemed to be infected with the grief in my heart. He picked up the jug and filled the wine glass again. I know that I can no longer show a sad expression, I must face Wuji with a strong attitude, let him feel at ease, let him not worry about me at all, so that he can wholeheartedly fight against Tangjiabao. So I suddenly laughed, and I tried to find some happy memories of the past to talk to him. At first, he was dumbfounded, but after a while, he was like me, talking about the happy events of the past. However, no matter how happy things are, there will be times when they end, especially our mood at the moment, after talking about the happy things, it looks particularly sad. Indeed, as soon as our words stopped, the whole stone room seemed to be filled with a strong atmosphere of melancholy. I don't know what to do anymore, I can't think of any way to make Wuji happy. I saw Wuji's expression, he seemed to be thinking the same thing as me, he seemed to be trying to find some happy topics to make me happy at this moment, a torch in the stone room was suddenly extinguished; the room was suddenly dimmed, This torch gave me a feeling, and I immediately said to Wuji: "It will be gone, and the sky is about to dawn, which means that a new day is coming again." Wuji just responded with a hmm. I couldn't help raising my voice, and said to Wuji: Don't you know what this means? Wuji looked at me a little bewildered. I said: That means you'll have to walk faster to get to Windhold in time, you know that? Wuji suddenly stood up, then sat down slumped, and said: This means we must break up. My tears rushed to my eyes, I tried my best to suppress it, and said to Wuji in a comforting tone: As long as there is fate, I believe we will be reunited. I also changed my tone of voice, it was choked up, I don't know how Wuji felt, because at this moment he stood up suddenly, looked at me with his back, and said: "Mistress, take care: Then, he didn't look back, His steps were so resolute, he walked towards the stone gate, and stretched out his hand to open the stone gate. He walked straight out like that, out of my sight. My heart was screaming, I almost couldn't scream out of my throat, I absolutely can't call him, once I call him, I know he will definitely turn back, once he turns around, he will definitely see my sad expression, I don't even dare to think about the consequences. But he just left? Will he walk out of my life from now on, I feel a colic in my heart, a burst of warmth, and I can't hold back my tears anymore. I lay down on the stone table and cried for an unknown amount of time. When I opened my eyes, I saw a pair of feet not far in front of me. There was a burst of ecstasy in my heart, oh, Wuji, you are still reluctant to part with me, but my ecstasy faded away, because I thought, Wuji shouldn't come back, he shouldn't abandon Dafengtang for the love of his children. I looked up, fortunately, it wasn't Wuji, it was Tang Ao. Tang Ao's expression is very awkward, he wants to smile at me, but how can he smile with my expression? But not smiling is not the way of hospitality, so his expression is really funny, but seeing him Such an expression, but I also have a trace of joy. He said to me in an embarrassing tone: I will take the milk back. I know that his so-called going back means going back to the inn, and definitely not leaving Tangjiabao. He wants to put me under house arrest so that he can use me when needed. I watched him leave the stone room and step onto the gazebo, and I found that it was dawn. When I was about to arrive at the inn, I suddenly thought of Xiao Donglou. With Xiao Donglou's martial arts, can he beat Tang Ao? I believe that if Xiao Donglou didn't rely on a stretcher to move, he would definitely be able to beat Tang Ao, hiding on a shelf, I'm not sure. However, it doesn't matter if you can't win, as long as you can try to take me away. Thinking of this, I suddenly found a new hope, I no longer feel sad, but a little happy. Tang Ao stood at the door of my room, pushed the door open, and said to me: Grandma, please clean up grandma's things: I asked him why? He said: Xiao Donglou passed away, and we prepared another more comfortable house in the garden for her to live in. When I heard that Xiao Donglou had left, I was dumbfounded. My hopes were dashed again. I couldn't help asking Tang Ao when Xiao Donglou left. Tang Ao said that he left before dawn, saying that he was rushing to find zombies to open his veins. Why did he leave without saying goodbye. Tang Ao said he couldn't find me. Why can't I be found. Tang Ao said: Because I told him that she and Zhao Wuji had already left Tangjiabao. I complained and asked him: Why did you lie to him? Tang Ao said: Isn't this very good? Let him die, will she be with him? I have nothing to say, Tang Ao is right, why bother breaking Su Donglou again? My heart absolutely belongs to Wuji alone, why let Xiao Donglou suffer again? However, I suddenly became brave and said fiercely to Tang Ao: I am happy, I like to have people by my side, can't I? Tang Ao suddenly laughed, and he said something that I didn't expect, he said: That's all right, I'm afraid she won't be happy. I looked at him inexplicably, and he said, "Actually, I didn't mean to let her move to the garden." Who do you mean. It means the ancestors.Tang Ao said: Actually, it's not entirely what the ancestors meant, it was Tang Hua who asked the ancestors to do this. Tang Hua?Who is Tang Hua. Tang Hua is my little cousin.Tang Ao said: Because he likes flirting by nature and rarely walks around the rivers and lakes, she must have never heard of his name. However, he accidentally saw her portrait a few days ago, and he became obsessed with it. It seems that you must find the grandma, and you just came, and he knew, so he asked the ancestor to keep her. Now she knows the reason why I wanted to keep her. I understand, I understand everything, why am I so unlucky? I packed my luggage silently, and went into the garden with Tang Ao again. This time he took me to a beautifully furnished room. He told me to take a break and said that Tang Hua would come to me later. I took this opportunity to quickly write down what happened yesterday. Who knows what will happen today?
