Su Xingchen found his horse, hugged Tao Jingyi, and galloped all the way in the direction of the Tianshan School. A few days later, the two arrived at the Tianshan School.
The two of them traveled all the way, and they didn't have time to change their clothes, so they went directly to the Tianshan School and asked to see the head of the Tianshan School.
The boy guarding the gate replied respectfully: "I'm sorry, both of you, the head of the gate is busy with work recently, so I'm afraid I won't have time to meet outsiders."
Tao Jingyi was silent, and said: "Tell him, I am Tao Tao, and after hearing this name, he will definitely meet me."
Unexpectedly, the boy guarding the door gave her a strange look: "Your surname is Tao?"
Tao Jingyi nodded.
"To be honest, the head of the sect has indeed ordered that if a girl surnamed Tao comes to inquire, there is no need to inform her, just come in directly, Miss Tao, please come down."
Tao Jingyi was surprised: "He really said that?"
My heart was full of joy, since Duan Feibai gave the order, it proved that Duan Feibai was fine.
The boy led the two of them into the hall all the way, and the doormen came to offer hot tea and melon and fruit snacks. Tao Jingyi held the teacup in his palm, absently using the lid to gently scrape the tea leaves on the water.
Su Xingchen sat next to her, the corners of his lips curled up tightly.
About a quarter of an hour later, a person hurried into the hall. Tao Jingyi hurriedly put down the teacup, stood up, looked up, but couldn't help being disappointed.
It was a strange man who came in. Although he had a handsome face and was dressed in white, he was not the Duan Feibai she was looking for.
The man in white smiled all over his face, raised his hand towards Tao Jingyi, and said loudly, "This must be Miss Tao."
"You are..." Tao Jingyi's eyes filled with doubt.
"Wuyouzi is the acting head of Tianshan." The man in white introduced himself politely, "Before leaving, the head has ordered that if there is a Tao girl coming, he must be well received."
"Duan Feibai, no, where did Head Duan go?" After all, it was his territory, and it was difficult to call him by his first name, so Tao Jingyi changed his words. She heard the meaning of Wuyouzi's words and couldn't help asking.
"I don't know, the master didn't tell me." Wuyouzi shook his head, "According to the master's intention, Miss Tao may not come, or maybe it will be a long time before she remembers that the Tianshan faction is looking for him, so Didn't say anything more."
Tao Jingyi was startled.
"However, I won't let Miss Tao make this trip in vain. The headmaster left something behind, saying that if I am lucky enough to wait for Miss Tao, I will definitely hand over this item to her." Wuyouzi took out a piece from his sleeve. A long wooden box, this wooden box is small and exquisite, with exquisite patterns carved on it.
Tao Jingyi took the box over and carefully opened the lid. Inside the box lay a broken mahogany hairpin, but nothing else.
"Broken hairpin?" Tao Jingyi was dumbfounded.
She had seen this hairpin before, when she and Xia Mingyuan went to his house to steal a piano and sword, she had seen it under his pillow.
Duan Feibai never left this hairpin, and he always took it out to observe before going to bed, because after rubbing it for too long, the original breaks gradually became smoother.
Tao Jingyi held the hairpin in his hand, only feeling heavy, and there was a warm touch in the tentacles.
"What's the meaning of this hairpin..." She murmured in a low voice, not understanding why Duan Feibai left a broken hairpin before leaving.
"The hairpin is a token of love between a man and a woman, and breaking the hairpin is naturally the meaning of breaking love." Wuyouzi said, seeing Tao Jingyi's face change slightly, he quickly added, "This is just my own speculation. I hope Miss Tao don't take it to heart."
"Broken hairpin, broken love." Tao Jingyi's body froze for a moment, and his eyes froze when he looked at the broken hairpin.
"Nonsense, there is no love, there is no need to break the love!" Su Xingchen snatched the hairpin from her hand, fell to the ground with a "slap", and grabbed Tao Jingyi's hand, "Sister, let's go, if we don't see it, we won't see it again." .”
Tao Jingyi was in a daze for a while, and was dragged away by him, staggering away all the way. After they left, Wuyouzi picked up the broken hairpin on the ground, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.
The boy who served the tea came in to tidy up, and couldn't help asking: "The headmaster obviously didn't mean that, why did the acting headmaster lie to that girl?"
In fact, Duan Feibai left a sentence. If Tao Jingyi is willing to tie up her hair with a broken hairpin, it means that she agrees to continue her relationship.
The boy didn't understand why the head of the generation said that.
"Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by the beauty pass, and the head of the sect is the same, but that Miss Tao can't be the wife of the head of the house." Wuyouzi sighed.
In the past, Duan Feibai could be stabbed by her in front of the heroes for her sake, which almost ruined the reputation of the Tianshan faction, so what about the future?
No one can guarantee what Duan Feibai will do for Tao Jingyi.
The wind is blowing, the chill hits the face, the mountains are everywhere, and the grass is dying. As far as the eye can see, a piece of snow can be seen faintly on the top of the mountain. The snow on the mountain never melts all year round, and the coldness seems to be brought to the bottom of my heart by the wind, and it keeps getting cold until the whole heart is frozen.
On the standing rock, Duan Feibai stood alone with his hands behind his back, staring intently at the two figures that were drifting away in the decaying grass, his eyes were as dark as a cold night.
"My aunt is dead, and you don't even want me anymore." His voice was blown away by the wind little by little, and gradually disappeared. He stared at Tao Jingyi's receding back, his heart seemed to sink into a bottomless abyss .
Stepping on the dry grass all over the ground, Tao Jingyi, who was walking down the mountain, suddenly turned his head.
"What's wrong, sister?" Su Xingchen was alert.
Tao Jingyi looked up the mountain suspiciously: "I seem to have heard someone talking."
Su Xingchen frowned: "These are all wilderness, there is no one else but us."
Tao Jingyi stood still, "Xingchen, I feel panicked and sad, as if I'm about to lose something."
"Sister?"
"The Puppet Villa was destroyed, Duan Hongying died, and Duan Feibai committed suicide..." Tao Jingyi silently recited the plot in the original book, her heart seemed to be hit hard by something, and then, she suddenly understood what, His expression became white, "Duan Feibai committed suicide!"
According to the plot of the original book, after the destruction of the Puppet Villa, it was the plot of Duan Feibai's suicide.
Tao Jingyi showed panic, turned around and ran away: "Duan Feibai, Duan Feibai, wait for me! Be sure to wait for me!"
"Sister!" Su Xingchen hurriedly followed. He had always boasted that no one could beat his lightness kung fu, but at this moment Tao Jingyi seemed to have sprouted wings and was running very fast.
Not long after the boy guarding the gate saw him off, he just took a nap, and the girl Tao who was supposed to have gone down the mountain appeared in front of him again out of breath.
"Miss Tao, what happened?" Seeing that her expression was not right, the gatekeeper quickly asked with concern.
"Duan Feibai, he didn't leave!" Tao Jingyi grabbed his sleeve, barely able to catch his breath. She flew back all the way, and she swallowed a lot of cold wind into her stomach, and now her stomach is icy cold.
"Take me to the highest place of your Tianshan sect, it will be too late!" she said quickly.
"The highest place of the Tianshan School..." The boy scratched his head and thought for a while, then a flash of light flashed in his mind, "Zuwangya! Yes, it's sitting on Wangya!"
Zuowangya is covered with snow all the year round, and it is still late autumn at this time, and there are already snowflakes on the mountain. The gatekeeper boy was well aware of the severe cold, so he found some warm clothes for Tao Jingyi and Su Xingchen before he dared to take them up the mountain.
Tao Jingyi's expression was tense, and he walked up the mountain road, wishing he could give birth to the wings of a bird and fly directly to Zuo Wang Cliff.
In the original book, after the Doll Villa was destroyed, Duan Feibai was disheartened and decided to bid farewell to this world. He chose the highest place of Tianshan School to spend his last days in this world.
The snow was flying all over the sky, and he was lying alone in the snow, gradually being submerged by the white snow without leaving a trace.
Everyone in the world thinks he is a master of piano and sword and retreats to the mountains and forests, but they don't know that he is heading towards self-destruction.
Thinking of the ending in the original book, Tao Jingyi's heart was pounding, almost jumping out of her chest. She wrapped her fox fur tightly and quickened her pace.
After about an hour, I arrived at Zuowangya which the boy said. The howling wind blows, the snowflakes fill the air, and the vast expanse of white snow on Zuowang Cliff is deserted.
The boy murmured in a low voice: "The head of the sect clearly confessed that he has gone far away, so why did he run to Zuo Wangya alone?"
Tao Jingyi's feet stepped on the snow, making a "creaking" sound, leaving a row of deep footprints where she walked.
Snowflakes were flying all over the sky, and after a while, her body and hair were covered with crystal snow particles.
Su Xingchen followed her, lest she slip and fall off the cliff.
"Sister, why are you so sure that Duan Feibai is here?" The strong wind blew away Su Xingchen's voice, and when it reached Tao Jingyi's ear, his voice was already very small.
Tao Jingyi didn't answer him.
The icy snowflakes were blown into Tao Jingyi's skirt by the wind, and the biting cold made her shiver uncontrollably. Every time she took a breath, white gas came out of her mouth.
The chill pierced through her body like a cold arrow, the body temperature dissipated little by little, and her body gradually stiffened.
In front of her eyes was the ultimate snow-white, she opened her eyes wide, even if she was blinded by the wind and snow, she did not dare to close them.
She didn't dare to miss any place, for fear that Duan Feibai was lying alone somewhere.
"Duan Feibai!" Tao Jingyi cupped his hands to his lips and called out his name loudly. When she opened her mouth, the cold wind and snow particles poured into her mouth.
Her cheeks and nose were flushed red from the cold, and her lips were a little pale. While rubbing her hands, she stomped her feet and kept yelling "Duan Feibai".
"You are here, I know you are here! Duan Feibai, please answer me, okay!" Tao Jingyi's eyes were slightly red, standing in the middle of the snow, looking at a loss.
"Master! Master, are you really here?" Seeing Tao Jingyi's serious face, the boy also yelled.
However, the only answer to them was the whistling wind and the rustling snow.
