"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Su Xingchen said.
Tao Jingyi turned around and walked downstairs, and bumped into the oncoming man carrying a teapot, and all the hot tea was poured on her body, as if she didn't notice it.
"Sister!" Su Xingchen's face changed slightly, and he pushed the waiter away with a palm, "Are you blind? Pour such hot tea on my sister."
Su Xingchen was so angry that he carried the teapot and was about to splash the remaining tea on the waiter's face.
Tao Jingyi was sobered up by his yelling, and saw Su Xingchen's nervousness at a glance, and quickly grabbed his hand: "Xingchen, don't be foolish!"
Fortunately, she was quick, otherwise all the tea would have been poured on the guy's head.
The man knelt on the ground, crying and begging for mercy.
This movement attracted many people to watch, and there were whispered discussions among the crowd.
Tao Jingyi's complexion changed slightly, he quickly grabbed Su Xingchen's hand, and left the restaurant as if fleeing for his life.
"Sister!" Su Xingchen grabbed her, forced her to stop, took her hand, and checked her injury.
"I'm fine." Tao Jingyi withdrew his hand, "The clothes are thick and not ironed, only a little splash on the back of his hand."
It's a lie that it's not hot, it's just that the earth-shattering feeling just now made her ignore all the pain. Now standing downstairs, being blown by the wind, I was shocked to feel that my body was wet, and there was a slight tingling pain in the place where the tea had been scalded.
"What happened that made sister so panic?" Su Xingchen asked.
Tao Jingyi shook his head, turned around and walked towards the city gate. No wonder when she and Su Xingchen entered the city just now, so many people surrounded the city gate. It's just that their speed was extremely fast at that time, and they didn't notice the situation above the city gate for a while.
She walked slowly at first, and after a few steps, her steps gradually became messy, and she simply ran wildly.
Su Xingchen followed behind, and quickly understood where she was going. It's just that he still doesn't understand why Tao Jingyi wanted to see Duan Hongying's dead body. Could it be to relieve the hatred in his heart?
The destruction of Hongfeng Villa was all thanks to Duan Hongying. It was understandable that she wanted to see the end of her enemy with her own eyes, so Su Xingchen didn't stop her.
He followed behind Tao Jingyi, only five steps away.
The number of people at the gate of the city was more than three times that of when they came, and the road was completely surrounded. After Tao Jingyi plunged into the crowd, he disappeared.
Su Xingchen's pupils contracted, and he quickly shuttled through the crowd, shouting: "Sister!"
Relying only on the belief in her heart, Tao Jingyi squeezed into the sea of people, and after a while, she came to the front row. Sure enough, as the man said, Duan Hongying's face was completely disfigured, one arm was broken, and she was hung on the city gate.
Duan Hongying stared wide-eyed, with a look of unwillingness. Tao Jingyi raised his head and looked at her from afar. Thinking about how majestic she was sitting at the pinnacle of the underworld, calling the wind and calling the rain, how could she have imagined her end today.
No one survived from the puppet villa...
Duan Hongying's body was hung on the city gate for public display...
I'm afraid Mr. Gui has already been defeated by Duan Shizi...
What that "Brother Wu" said vaguely echoed in her ears, Tao Jingyi could only feel the sun was scorching the sky in front of her eyes, her body swayed, and she almost couldn't stand still. Fortunately, a hand was stretched out from the side in time to support her steadily.
"Girl, be careful." said the deep voice.
Tao Jingyi came back to her senses, the dizziness in her mind faded a lot, she quickly raised her head and looked at the man, the man had already walked away, and his back gradually disappeared into the sea of people.
"It's him." Tao Jingyi recognized that the man was the man who bought flowers on the street just now, and there seemed to be some scent of osmanthus in the air.
She frowned slightly, and that extremely familiar feeling came to her heart again.
With his back to Tao Jingyi, the man walked out of the crowd. His right hand was tightly clenched into a fist, with nails embedded in the palm, and the slight pain reminded him to stay awake and not lose his composure.
The autumn wind that rushed towards him occasionally lifted his sleeves. Under the sleeves, on his wrists, the scars left by sharp weapons have obviously faded a lot after years of polishing.
"Huh, that person seems to be an acquaintance." On the second floor of a restaurant not far away, the young man in white put down his wine cup and looked in Tao Jingyi's direction.
The blue-clothed swordsman sitting opposite him raised his eyes calmly, followed his gaze, and glanced. Just after taking one look, there were tiny waves in his usually calm eyes.
Probably in order to calm down the undesired mood swings, he picked up the wine cup in front of him and brought it to his lips. Suddenly, a hand pressed down on his wrist.
"Nephew Dongfang, you are still seriously injured, it is best not to drink alcohol." Duan Wushuang laughed.
Zhao Nanping, who was sitting next to him, said: "Your Majesty Wu Shuang's words are wrong. Mr. Dongfang's complexion is ruddy. It seems that his injury has already healed. It is only a few glasses of wine. With Mr. Dongfang's skill, it is not a problem."
Duan Wushuang glanced at Zhao Nanping, paused, and followed her words: "Master Nanping is right, nephew can do whatever he wants."
Duan Wushuang and Zhao Nanping were all staring at him. During the battle in Emerald Valley, he accidentally fell off the cliff. After returning, he became colder than before, and his skill was much more refined than before. He must have had some adventures under the cliff.
"Hey, it seems that there is no one I want to wait for today." Duan Wushuang sighed softly.
"Send someone to follow that Miss Tao Tao, maybe we can find what we want." Zhao Nanping said.
She was slapped by the fake Duan Wushuang at the beginning, and she was full of resentment in her heart, but she was seriously injured and had to recuperate in the mansion. It was not until Duan Wushuang led the elite soldiers to destroy the doll villa that the news came back to the mansion. After thinking about it, she suddenly realized what was going on. .
Duan Wushuang, who escaped from the Doll Villa, seemed to have grown up overnight, and his temperament changed a lot, so he came to her on his own initiative and proposed the covenant.
Zhao Nanping has long been interested in Duan Wushuang, so he formed an alliance with him to help him do what he wants to do.
After Zhao Nanping put forward this suggestion, Duan Wushuang raised the wine cup and said with a big laugh, "It's still the Princess who knows my heart, I will toast the Princess."
Zhao Nanping smiled knowingly: "Nanping will definitely support whatever your son wants to do."
Only Dongfang Yue remained expressionless from beginning to end, entering a state of selflessness, as if everything that happened around him had nothing to do with him anymore.
The common people had seen enough excitement, they all gradually dispersed, and the number of people on the street suddenly decreased a lot.
"Sister! Sister!" Su Xingchen's voice woke up Tao Jingyi, who was in a daze, and Tao Jingyi realized that he was staring at the direction the person left, in a daze for a long time.
"What happened?" Su Xingchen asked with concern.
"...It's okay." Tao Jingyi replied with a guilty conscience, feeling as if something in his heart had been punctured.
Su Xingchen raised his head and glanced at Duan Hongying's corpse hanging above the city gate, with a hint of pleasure in his eyes, he put his arms around Tao Jingyi, and said softly, "Sister, let's go home."
"No, no..." Tao Jingyi didn't know what to think of, and murmured in a low voice, the look in his eyes was empty and helpless, with an absent-minded expression.
"Sister, what are you talking about?"
Tao Jingyi raised his head: "Xingchen, I can't go home with you."
"Where does sister want to go?"
"Tianshan School." Tao Jingyi knew that if he didn't make it clear, Su Xingchen would definitely not let him go, and she didn't want to lie to him. She didn't believe that Duan Feibai died in Duan Wushuang's hands like this. The original book set him as invincible, and the only one who could kill him in this world was himself.
He won't die so easily, he must have returned to the Tianshan faction, and she will go back to find him!
As for whether she went back for Duan Feibai, or for his Qinjian...
She couldn't figure it out for a while, maybe after seeing Duan Feibai, everything would be answered.
The corners of Su Xingchen's lips pursed, and the sharp light in his eyes flashed away: "You want to go back and find Duan Feibai?"
Tao Jingyi didn't speak, his expression clearly acquiesced.
"Why? Sister, he was the one who killed you! Do you know how much I hated Duan Feibai in the days when you died!"
But he couldn't appear in front of Duan Feibai, because he stole the bones of "Sister", Duan Feibai has been looking for his whereabouts everywhere. He could only hide in deep hatred like a tortoise, fearing that Duan Feibai would **** his "sister" back.
"Xingchen, I'm sorry for you." Tao Jingyi stood on tiptoe, put his hand on the top of Su Xingchen's head, and stroked it gently, "Just this time, the last time, okay? I promise you, after I find Duan Feibai , I will return your elder sister to you."
Su Xingchen was filled with anger, this anger burned his liver and gallbladder, and he wished he could take Tao Jingyi back directly, break her legs and lock her in a place where no one else could find her, and make her belong to him forever .
Life belongs to him, and death also belongs to him. Even if her tombstone was stained with dust, he, Su Xingchen, could only brush off the dust.
But just when he was on the verge of going mad, that soft white hand stroked the top of his head lightly. All his anger, all his paranoia, and all his madness were gently brushed away by this hand. Go, instantly collapsed, the whole army was wiped out.
Facing his elder sister, he will always be completely defeated, and he doesn't even have the ability to resist.
"Sister..."
"I'll return your elder sister to you, I promise, no one will be able to separate you again." Tao Jingyi said softly.
Although Su Xingchen didn't quite understand what Tao Jingyi said "return your elder sister to you", he vaguely understood that it was a promise.
"Really?" Su Xingchen had a disbelieving expression on his face, "I want my elder sister to promise me to stay with me, for the rest of my life, never to be separated, and even if they die, they will be burnt to ashes together, and no one can separate them. "
Tao Jingyi nodded, and repeated his promise: "For the rest of my life, we will never be separated. Even if we die, we will turn into ashes. I am in you, and you are in me."
She promised this sentence on Su Xiyan's behalf. She believed that Su Xiyan must be willing to love Su Xingchen so much.
Su Xingchen laughed happily. He took Tao Jingyi's hand and led her away from the crowd: "I believe what Sister Sister says, Sister Sister will not lie to me."
