Chapter 472 [Song of Autumn in the Desert] (Part 2)
Zhou Mo said: "Okay!"
Visa held a jade flute, and a melodious flute sound sounded in the quiet night. This "Autumn Thoughts in the Desert" is a tune recorded in the soul-stirring book. It is one of the eight soul-stirring magic sounds. The sound of the flute reached his ears.
, a vast desert seemed to appear in front of Zhou Mo's eyes. He saw a huge full moon rising from the edge of the desert. In the picture in his mind, a lonely traveler walked in the desert. Looking down from a high altitude, the traveler's face
The figure is so lonely and small.
Even though Hu Xiaotian had already practiced the soul-fixing technique in the soul-stirring book, he still did not dare to take it lightly. Visa played the magic sound at a close range. Logically speaking, he and Zhou Mo were affected by the same thing. The biggest difference is that
He was already prepared. Hu Xiaotian had previously ordered the servants at home not to approach the garden at will, in order to prevent them from being disturbed by the magic sound.
Although Hu Xiaotian was fully prepared, he was still cautious, boosted his energy and held on to Yuanyi, and his inner breath quietly moved according to the "Bodhi Heartless Zen Method".
Zhou Mo was already listening to it. He held the glass of wine in his hand and stood still for a long time without realizing it. His whole body was immersed in the sound of music. Sometimes the sound of the flute was desolate and distant, and things were soft and gentle. Sometimes he was like a lonely traveler.
Telling about one's vicissitudes of life sometimes seems like a resentful girl pouring out her heart.
Zhou Mo finally drank the glass of wine, his eyes became confused, as if his spirit had drifted away from his body along with the sound of the flute.
Visa saw that the time had come, and after two gentle changes of tune, he stopped playing the flute, stared at Zhou Mo's eyes with a pair of ice-blue beautiful eyes, and said softly: "Are you tired?"
Zhou Mo looked at Visa blankly, his eyes dull and his expression indifferent, he said: "I'm tired."
Visa said: "Why put so many things on your mind? Why don't you want to share your concerns with us?"
Zhou Mo murmured: "Some things cannot be said." He clenched his fists and felt that the scenery in front of him was blurry. He seemed to be falling asleep at any time, and a potential voice reminded him not to sleep.
can not sleep.
Visa said: "Don't worry, there are no outsiders here, they are all your friends and your brothers."
Zhou Mo shook his head vigorously: "I'm sorry for him, I'm sorry for him..."
Hu Xiaotian's heart sank and he glanced at Visa. Taking this opportunity, he wanted to ask Zhou Mo for his secret.
"Who are you sorry for?"
Zhou Mo said with difficulty: "I'm sorry, third brother..." As he said this, he heard an explosion in the night sky, and a colorful firework bloomed in the night sky. The sound of the fireworks was extremely loud.
Let the earth tremble.
Zhou Mo's burly body visibly shook. In an instant, he regained some consciousness. He suddenly reached out and grabbed the wine jar on the table, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp. A wave of heat rose up in his abdomen. Zhou Mo
He was born with a taste for wine. At the critical moment, the explosion of fireworks brought his confused consciousness back. The remaining consciousness allowed him to see the jar of wine, as if a drowning man grabbed a life-saving straw. It was precisely because of the effect of wine on him.
Importance, he had just relied on wine to slowly find himself again. Zhou Mo felt that his blood was warmed by the alcohol, and his numb consciousness gradually began to recover.
The outline of Hu Xiaotian's face opposite him also began to become clear again. Zhou Mo tried hard to recall everything that had just happened, but he couldn't remember it clearly. An unnatural smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Third brother, what just happened?
"
Hu Xiaotian secretly cried out that it was a pity that someone set off fireworks at this time, resulting in a failure. Otherwise, Zhou Mo should have told the truth by now. Hu Xiaotian said with a calm expression: "You just said you were sorry to me!"
Zhou Mo was shocked in his heart, and his smile became harder and harder: "Yes, this matter has always been on Brother Yu's heart. If I hadn't been negligent at the time, Princess Anping would not have left."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "People's hearts are separated from each other. How can we know what others think?"
Zhou Mo sighed, yawned and said, "I'm sleepy. It's time for me to go back. Third brother should also rest early."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and did not say anything to persuade him to stay.
Zhou Mo stood up, clasped his fists, and strode outside. Hu Xiaotian looked at Zhou Mo's back with an unprecedented strangeness and coldness in his eyes. He could almost conclude that Long Xiyue's farewell in Haizhou without saying goodbye was set up by Zhou Mo.
Hu Xiaotian secretly hated himself. Why did he trust Zhou Mo instead of Long Xiyue? He actually doubted Xiyue's feelings. An unprecedented sadness and guilt in his heart was like an invisible hand clenching tightly. Hu Xiaotian
I feel severe pain in my chest, almost out of breath.
Wei Sa saw something strange in his expression, and hurriedly rubbed his back gently, saying apologetically: "Master, it's all my fault that Wei Sa is not good at studying. He didn't help Master with such a simple thing."
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with you, it's my fault! It's all my fault!"
Huo Shengnan came back at this time. Seeing Hu Xiaotian's pale face, he thought something serious had happened to him and hurriedly came over to ask.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I'm fine!" He asked Visa to go back first.
Huo Shengnan looked at the dishes and chopsticks on the table and whispered, "Brother Zhou is leaving so soon?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Yes, maybe he has no other choice except leaving."
Huo Shengnan looked at him in astonishment: "What happened?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "You will know later."
After Zhou Mo returned to Shence Mansion, he immediately started to pack his bags. When he went out, he met Xiong Tianba. Xiong Tianba couldn't help but be curious when he saw Zhou Mo's appearance: "Master, you came back so late? Didn't you go there?"
Have you been drinking at Third Uncle’s house?”
Zhou Mo pursed his lips and said, "Your third uncle has some urgent matters for me to take care of. I'm leaving now."
Xiong Tianba smiled and said: "You are going out to do some business, why don't you take me with you? I'm almost bored staying here in Kangdu. Master, can you take me with you?"
Zhou Mo looked at Xiong Tianba with a silly smile on his face, and suddenly felt infinite emotion in his heart. He reached out and patted Xiong Tianba on the shoulder and said: "Little naughty boy, you can't go. After I leave, you must remember to listen to your three words."
If you tell me, you must protect your third uncle." After saying this, he felt sad for a while, and he couldn't say any more, so he walked away.
Xiong Tianba said: "Master, where are you going? Even if you are leaving, there is no need to be in such a hurry. Can't you leave before dawn tomorrow?"
Zhou Mo walked quickly towards his mount. Before he could reach the mount, he saw a man walking in from the courtyard gate. The man was dressed in black and had a tall figure. Under the moonlight, his handsome face was a little pale.
The expression on his face was full of disappointment and regret. Who else could it be if it wasn’t Hu Xiaotian?
Zhou Mo stopped and looked at Hu Xiaotian quietly, the smile on his face was full of bitterness: "The third brother is here!"
Hu Xiaotian said: "The wine hasn't been finished yet, why do you want to leave in a hurry?"
Zhou Mo sighed and said: "What should go will always go, and what should come will always come." His eyes fell on Hu Xiaotian's left shoulder, and a black sword hilt was exposed on the shoulder, which was the hidden edge of Hu Xiaotian's big sword.
Xiong Tianba also noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere, and said in shock: "Third uncle...master...you..."
Zhou Mo interrupted him and said, "You have no business interrupting me when I'm talking to your third uncle!"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, naughty boy, go outside and wait while I discuss some matters with your master alone."
Xiong Tianba blinked. Although he felt that something was very wrong, he did not dare to disobey the two of them. He walked outside, still looking back from time to time as he left.
After Xiong Tianba left, Hu Xiaotian glanced at Zhou Mo's mount and said, "Where are you going, brother?"
Zhou Mo said: "There are some private matters that I have to deal with quickly."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "What can make you leave overnight must be something important."
Zhou Mo looked at Hu Xiaotian and suddenly sighed and said, "When did you start doubting me?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I thought that even if my relatives could betray me and my lover could abandon me, my sworn brother would never abandon me, but the reality gave me a loud slap in the face and humiliated me to the bone.
"
Zhou Mo said: "Vissa is actually a Soul Capturer, and you used Soul Capture to deal with me." His voice was calm, without any anger.
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "How could I know your secret if I didn't use this method." Although Zhou Mo woke up in time, his consciousness was controlled by Visa for a short time just now. Zhou Mo himself didn't know that he was losing consciousness.
What exactly was said at that moment? Hu Xiaotian wanted to take advantage of this to make Zhou Mo mistakenly think that he had revealed the secret.
Zhou Mo sighed and said, "I'm sorry for you."
"Why should I do it if I know I'm sorry? You were obviously the one who harmed Xiyue, but why did you weave such a lie to end your life for me?" Hu Xiaotian felt a sting in his heart, not only because of Zhou Mo's betrayal, but also because of him
Misunderstanding of Long Xiyue, I don’t know whether Xiyue is dead or alive now. She has been missing for so long, but I believe Zhou Mo’s words and give up searching for her. If Long Xiyue has any shortcomings, I will regret it for the rest of my life.
.
Zhou Mo said: "When did you start doubting me?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I have never thought about doubting my sworn brother. This time I went to Xichuan and had several encounters with the horse bandits in Tianlang Mountain. Suddenly I found that Tianlang Mountain's strength is mediocre. With your martial arts
The elite men who led the 200 Tiger Head Battalion should not have been defeated so miserably."
Zhou Mo nodded.
Hu Xiaotian added: "Looking back now, the meeting between you and me is too coincidental. You and my second brother know everything about me, but I know almost nothing about you. Xiao Tianmu volunteered to accompany my father.
Go to Luosong to open up a maritime food transportation channel. It seems that you have been preparing to evacuate since then. I thought you came here all the way from Xichuan to save me and help me. But now I understand that your purpose is basically the Minister.
"
Zhou Mo didn't say anything, and looked at Hu Xiaotian quietly, with eyes that couldn't tell whether he was sad or guilty.
I drank too much yesterday and had a headache all day long. I barely managed to write a chapter. I feel ashamed and will try my best to avoid this happening in the future. (To be continued...)
