Peach Blossom Button

Chapter 131

As soon as this hand touched the air, Tao Mo froze in place.

What about "Thousands of Machines"?

At this moment, he just felt as if his whole body was frozen, he couldn't move at all, and his heart suddenly fell into an ice cave.

Is it possible...

At this moment, a bag of things was thrown to his feet, and then, a girl's crisp voice came from behind: "You are walking quite fast!"

He looked down, and the dirty cloth bag was the culprit that made him lose his mind!He hurriedly bent down, grasped the cloth bag, and stretched his hand into the cloth bag.

"Hey, say something!" Lanyue folded her arms around her chest and raised her eyebrows slightly, "I'm walking so fast, it's easy for my old lady to chase after me! I don't even know if I lost the things I brought..."

The girl was still chattering behind her, and Tao Mo finally carefully rewrapped the worn-out scroll, put it in his underwear and put it away. He turned around and solemnly bowed to Lanyue.

He originally thought that "Thousand Jilu" was stolen by Lanyue, but unexpectedly the thief came after him and returned the original. He was grateful and surprised at the same time, and all these emotions finally turned into these four words .

"Thank you girl."

Lanyue was slightly taken aback, she stretched out her fingers to play with the ends of her hair a little unnaturally, and couldn't help but glance to the side: "No, it's okay, didn't you pay for the hairpin for me..."

"One is to admire the girl for repaying her kindness, and the other is to repay the favor of picking up the stars and saving the siege." Tao Mo replied frankly.

When Lanyue heard it, the faint smile on her face disappeared immediately, she snorted from her nose, raised her eyebrows and said: "You are really boring."

Tao Mo was stunned, then tilted his head slightly: "What do you mean, Miss?"

Seeing the puzzled look of the black-clothed swordsman in front of her, Lanyue couldn't help but click her tongue: "You are really a fool!" But she quickly waved her hand, "Forget it, don't call me 'girl' , It sounds strange. My name is Li Miaomiao, you idiot, report your name quickly, and let my old lady hear your silly name!"

It's really strange that she is obviously a beautiful girl, but she wants to call herself "Old Lady" with that crisp and juicy voice.

Tao Mo was surprised, but he replied honestly, "Tao Mo."

"Oh!" Lan Yue suddenly smiled, her smile was different from the girls Tao Mo usually met.The girls I met usually smiled quietly, with the corners of the mouth slightly turned up, without showing any teeth. Even Xie Sanniang's wild laugh was crazy, not at all like the smile of the girl in front of her.When she smiled, two small canine teeth were immediately revealed, as clever and cunning as a cat.

"Okay, I got it," Lan Yue smiled and looked at the confused swordsman in front of him, "It's up to you and your brother to repay your brother's kindness, but it's different with me. The kindness of the silver hairpin, I, Li Miao Remember it!" After finishing speaking, the girl turned around, and the apricot-colored skirt burst open like a flower, and then, there was a ringing of bells in her ears, and the moon fell lightly on the treetops by the street. The black-clothed swordsman under the tree waved his hand: "There will be a time later!"

Before it was Tao Mo's turn to say anything, she tapped her toes and jumped into the dense canopy of trees, never to be seen again.

Tao Mo stood under the tree and watched the girl leave.It wasn't the first time he had contact with the Moon Lancer, but only this time, he felt that the girl looked like an old friend.

The lively and smiling girl in the peach blossom forest, although her appearance is different, her frowns and smiles are almost carved out of the same mold as Lanyue.The fuzzy long-term memory in Tao Mo's mind seemed to be wiped away by water, and it began to become clear little by little.He still remembered that the girl who seldom laughed was jumping up and down excitedly because she picked up an old hairpin embedded with red stones in the forest.

But after that?After that, I don't remember what happened to the girl, whether she was buried under the ruins together with the fire, or... Tao Mo suddenly frowned, stretched out his hand to press on his temple, he suddenly felt dizzy and nauseous, something he hadn't experienced in a long time After the opened memory was suddenly clear, even more terrifying memories flooded up.The street scene in my eyes suddenly turned into a dazzling flame, and in the peaceful afternoon, there were screams of killing and screams of despair.The moment he stepped into the memory, Tao Mo seemed to be in the cruel sea of ​​flames many years ago again, and he became the frail child back then, screaming and running away amidst the chaotic sound of horseshoes and the light of knives.In front of his line of sight, a knight on horseback in black armor rushed forward, and the long knife shining with silver light went straight to his face and slashed at him. For a moment, Tao Mo's feet couldn't help but staggered, he staggered two steps, his body He leaned back in vain.

At this moment, a pair of slightly cold hands grabbed Tao Mo's shoulders.

"A Mo, what's wrong with you? What happened!"

The familiar voice from next to his ear dragged Tao Mo back from the blood of terrifying memories again.The black-clothed swordsman suddenly came back to his senses, and he blinked vigorously. Before him was the ordinary street scene of the imperial capital. There was no big fire, let alone black-armored soldiers.The only one who was there was the person who appeared at an unknown time and suddenly helped himself up who had almost fallen.

With a long sigh, he straightened up from the man's arms, turned his head and asked, "Why are you here?"

Bai Wangyan withdrew his hand, frowned slightly and looked at Tao Mo: "I haven't come back for so long, I'm afraid something will happen to you."

"How do you know I'm here?" As soon as the words came out, Tao Mo shut up immediately, and he suddenly realized what a stupid question he had asked.

But Bai Wangyan just shook his head, he raised his head and caressed Tao Mo's cheek, his movements were gentle as if he was stroking some extremely precious collection, but there was a cold spring in his peach blossom eyes.Afterwards, the scholar in white said softly, "Go back."

Tao Mo had seen many expressions on Bai Wangyan's face before, but the smile in his eyes was now covered by deeper thoughts, and his gaze was much more greedy than usual, as if he wanted to engrave his whole body. In the eyes, it can no longer be erased.

But in the face of such a strange situation, he just opened his mouth and didn't ask any questions. He just silently followed behind Bai Wangyan and quickly left the slightly indifferent Dongshi City. The ginkgo trees with crooked necks were left behind.

If you have your own concerns, and you are afraid that you will accidentally slip up, you will naturally have nothing to say along the way.

After Bai Wangyan returned to the inn, Tao Mo felt so depressed for the first time, the usual silence at this moment was like a punishment, and he couldn't breathe.He stretched out his hand and pressed it on his chest, where "Thousand Jilu - Volume [-]" was hidden, there was a vague heat in his palm.

Because of the uneasiness in his heart, he had the illusion that the book was burning.

But Bai Wangyan didn't seem to notice his strangeness at all. After returning to the inn, the scholar in white made tea as usual, pulled over the chair, picked up the scroll on the table and read it.For someone as perceptive as him to be able to remain calm under Tao Mo's clumsy silence, he obviously had already guessed Tao Mo's next move.

But Tao Mo didn't think of this, his heart was full of uneasiness and panic, and the scroll hidden in his chest was burning like a raging fire.

"Wangyan," Tao Mo finally called out to Bai Wangyan. He stood awkwardly by the door, frowning tightly, pressing his chest with one hand, and locked the door with the other, "I have something to say to you. explain……"

Bai Wangyan raised his head, his eyes were extremely calm: "Okay."

With the other party's permission, Tao Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and handed the warmed-up old scroll to the white-clothed scholar: "This is what Xie Sanniang entrusted to me to keep before leaving."

Old, with yellowed curly edges and blackened blood marks engraved on it, such a "Thousand Jilu Volume [-]" was presented to Bai Wangyan by Tao Mo, but the white-clothed scholar seemed not interested in it. , He raised his eyes to glance at the ancient scroll, and wrote lightly: "Put it away, this is something entrusted to you by others."

"I went to Dongshi to find it." Tao Mo continued.

Bai Wangyan shifted his eyes from the scroll to Tao Mo's face, he raised his head to look at Tao Mo: "Did Lou Yueming invite you to drink this morning?"

Being abruptly changed from the subject, Tao Mo froze in front of Bai Wangyan with the hand holding the scroll, and replied with a little surprise, "Yes."

"I heard that there is a restaurant in West Market that serves very good wine," Bai Wangyan said, "Do you have a good time tonight?"

Confused by Bai Wangyan's words, Tao Mo frowned and asked, "I'll go tonight. It's just that "Thousands of Machines"..."

Bai Wangyan said indifferently: "Put away the things entrusted to you. It's just that this thing will definitely cause trouble, so it's better to deal with it as soon as possible."
