Chapter 201: Sorry, Lu Youyi
The killing of the Fated Man is not a matter of urgency, the most important thing now is Chi You's injury and Teng Bi's body.
"Is that stone statue heart that I took away of any use to you?" Jiang Luo suddenly asked.
Chi You raised an eyebrow and nodded.
River continued, "Would having the last Primordial Heavenly Pearl have made up for your soul?"
Chi You looked Jiang Luo over and suddenly laughed, "Yes."
Jiang Luo nodded calmly and told Chi You to take a good rest, he went out and made a phone call to make an appointment with Wen Renlian.
When Chi You woke up, he didn't have to worry so much. Jiang Luo set the meeting place at a location far away from the Dragon Vein near Dawu Mountain, Wen Renlian suddenly lowered his voice, "Jiang Luo, Chi You brought a few people don't know where to go, except for Taoist Master Wei He and a local tour guide, just Ge Wuchen was carried back by Ge Zhu alone. "
"You still don't know, Ge Zhu and Ge Wuchen have resolved their misunderstanding and made up. Ge Zhu said that he secretly followed you to an ancient tomb and saw Ge Wuchen disappearing in front of you. Ge Zhu was so anxious that he searched the tomb for a long time before he found Ge Wuchen, and when he found Ge Wuchen, Ge Wuchen went crazy, hugging a stone and crying out Ge Zhu's name, probably recognizing the stone as Ge Zhu. I don't know what happened to the two of them in the tomb, but Ge Zhu's eyes were red with tears when he came back."
I guess this news is too explosive, Wen Renlian, who usually has a tight mouth, couldn't stop at all, "You don't know where you went, Taoist Master Wei He and Ge Wuchen, they just stayed with us. After that, we followed Ge Zhu to look for that ancient tomb, but the tomb collapsed without knowing what happened, do you know how it collapsed?"
"By the way, what about that Teng Bi?" Wen Ren asked, he looked back at Lu Youyi who was picking mushrooms with Ye Xun and walked a little further away, "Where did he go, is he with you? If he is with you, I feel relieved, I am afraid that he is still in the mountain, and will bump into Lu Youyi when he comes out cold.You don't know, when you went up the mountain together before, Lu Youyi almost saw him, fortunately I blocked Lu Youyi's binoculars, so that he didn't see Teng Bi."
Jiang Luo's brain went blank for a moment, he suddenly felt sad and asked in a low voice, "When we went up the mountain, you guys saw it too?"
Smeller even said, "Right."
Jiang Luo: "If we don't block it, will Lu Youyi be able to see Teng Bi?"
Smells even affirmed, "Right."
Jiang Luo did not know what to say, he saw a lighter on the kitchen stove, walked over and took the lighter in his hand, and struck the fire one by one.
Snap, snap.
The fire rises and goes out.
Jiang Luo's throat was clogged, and he suddenly realized how much Lu Youyi would be devastated if he told him about Teng Bi's death.
The most unacceptable thing in the world is a mistake.
Who can know?
Who could have known that the glance Wenren Lian blocked up would be the last glance Lu Youyi might see of Teng Bi?
The mistake of missing it by mistake when you could have seen it, can cause an instant emotional breakdown.
Jiang Luo felt he had some idea of what Teng Bi's last words, "If ...... forget it ......" meant.
"If only I could have seen him one last time ......"
"How nice it would be if I wasn't dead yet ......"
"If only I had apologized sooner ......"
These four short words contain all that Teng Bi has not said.
Jiang Luo s voice was a little muffled, "He wasn t with me ...... and wouldn t have come out in the cold. When I go back ...... I will talk to you guys."
Wenren Lian heard something a little off in his tone, and he murmured, "Good."
Jiang Luo hung up the phone, stood still for a while, and went to ask the host family to borrow a pack of cigarettes.
The host's eldest son and his daughter-in-law were talking in private in the house, when he heard the knock on the door and ran out, his face turned red with shame, one hand grasped his pants pocket, one hand put the cigarettes into Jiang Luo's hand and stammered, "No, no need to return it."
Jiang Luo's sadness could not help but dissipate a little, and when he returned to his room, he met Chi You's gaze. Jiang Luo walked to the bedside and sat down casually, opened the cigarette box and looked at it, couldn't help but laugh, there is only one last cigarette in it.
He lit the last of his cigarettes and took a ghostly drag. The smoke wasn't a good one, it burned quickly and tasted choking, and in one puff he managed to smoke off a section the size of a fingernail.
Chi You reached out, his pale fingers touched the cigarette, and Jiang Luo gave it to him.
After they finished a cigarette together, Jiang Luo suddenly climbed onto the bed and pressed down on Chi You, the two equally brilliant faces staring at each other through the smoke.
The smoke obscured the subtle expressions on Jiang Luo's face, as well as the scowl on Chi You's face.
The same can be done to cover the vulnerability of a man's heart that he doesn't want to show.
"What happened after I died?" Jiang Luo asked, approaching the smoke.
Chi You slowly exhaled the last of the smoke from his mouth and shadowed, "I fished you out, and Teng Bi gave you his last breath of life."
Jiang Luo paused and whispered, "Speak more clearly."
Chi You and Jiang Luo looked at each other.
The emotions in the eyes of the young man with black hair were all captured by Chi You. Perhaps Jiang Luo himself didn't realize how many wounds and self-reproaches were hidden in his eyes.
Chi You extinguished the cigarette in his hand, raised his left hand and pressed Jiang Luo's head, Jiang Luo's face through the choking smoke with a spicy flavor. Chi You didn't say anything and kissed him directly with the smell of smoke.
*
The next day, Jiang Luo and Chi You arrived at the meeting place on time.
Teng Bi's great sword was in Jiang Luo's hands, and before he left, he asked his host family to borrow a piece of black cloth, and carefully tied up the great sword using the black cloth as a sheath, just as Teng Bi had done before.
From a distance, Jiang Luo saw Wenren Lian and his men gathered together.
His eyesight had become much stronger than before, and from such a distance he could make out the anxious or relaxed expressions on the faces of his companions as he swept past them all, finally settling on Lu Youyi.
Lu Youyi was standing with Ye Xun, and the two of them watched the way Ge Wuchen and Ge Zhu's brothers were getting along with great interest, their eyes all glittering with gossip. Ge Wuchen's handsome face was dark, but he forcibly held back a compassionate and kind smile.
Soon, the people on the other side of the street saw them as well. Ge Zhu and Lu Youyi warmly raised their arms in greeting, and Ge Wuchen stood up respectfully when he saw Chi You.
"You're finally here," Lu Youyi said in a loud voice, "where have you been for the past half month, we've been searching the mountains and couldn't find you."
Jiang Luo and Chi You had already walked in front of them when they finished speaking.
After Wenren Lian and the others saw that Jiang Luo was not injured, they explicitly and implicitly set their sights on Chi You.
In the past half a month, Ge Wuchen had been brainwashing them day and night, saying things like Chi You and Jiang Luo were born to be together, trying to get everyone to join him in bringing Jiang Luo and Chi You together, and his frantic rhythms had also affected Ye Xun's senses, so that Ye Xun could actually see some resemblance of a good match when he saw Jiang Luo and Chi You standing together. When Ye Xun saw Jiang Luo and Chi You standing together, they could actually see that they were a good match.
Looks need not be said, both people are first-class excellent. Height is also in line, they stand together as if the sharp light flashing sword and gun, each other inspired by each other's most attractive pair, collision but also match.
I heard that Chi You is fighting against the Lian family for Jiang Luo. Compared to the past when you loved Jiang Luo so much that you wanted to kill him, now Chi You is obviously not willing to kill Jiang Luo. As long as Chi You doesn't kill Jiang Luo, Ye Xun and the others won't stop Jiang Luo and Chi You from being together.
After all, before Chi You became a ghost, he was someone they admired. Anyway, Jiang Luo is no longer a mere human being, so he and Chi You are a good match.
A circle of people gawked at Chi You and Jiang Luo with interest, and Lu Youyi, who had cried several times over the love story between the two of them, heatedly smiled and poked Ye Xun.
Ye Xun coughed up his throat and asked cooperatively, "You were alone for half a month?"
Seeing their relaxed and happy appearance, Jiang Luo felt that what he wanted to say suddenly became incredibly heavy. He laughed bitterly in his heart, Teng Bi, how nice of you to come over and talk to him yourself.
If you apologize to Lu Youyi, Lu Youyi will beat you up.
I told him that his carefree look might be completely shattered by me.
Jiang Luo really can't say, he meaninglessly pulled up his lips and smiled casually.
Ge Wuchen came out and greeted Chi You, looked around and asked strangely, "Master, why isn't Teng Bi following you and Jiang Shi Zhu?"
The smile at the corner of Jiang Luo's mouth instantly froze.
Lu Youyi, who was squeezing Jiang Luo's eyes, froze, "Teng Bi?"
He knows that the dead guy's first name is Teng Bi.
The smile on Lu Youyi's face slowly tightened, and his anger began to burn, as if everything was in slow motion. His eyes flashed with fire as he clenched his fists and rolled up his sleeves, raging, "Where's Teng Bi! Tell him to get his ass out here for grandpa, I'm going to beat him up!"
Ye Xun looked on calmly, and instead of stopping Lu Youyi, he added fuel to the fire and coolly said, "Is a beating enough?"
He supports Lu Youyi to beat up Teng Bi. It won't kill him anyway, so Lu Youyi can take it out on him.
But Jiang Luo was silent, not saying a word.
The evil spirit glanced at Ge Wuchen without expression.
The sudden silence spread quickly from them to everyone.
Lu Youyi's fist froze in mid-air, all the anger high or low, he looked at Jiang Luo who didn't say anything, and then looked at Chi You who didn't say anything, and hesitantly said, "Is he gone? Jiang Luo, what kind of expression is that."
Jiang Luo finally moved, and with heavy steps he walked step by step to Lu Youyi and raised the knife wrapped in black cloth in his hand.
"Lu Youyi," his voice trailed off, "do you recognize this knife?"
Lu Youyi recognized it at a glance, he didn't know what was going on but the atmosphere made him a little uneasy, he withdrew his hand awkwardly and said anxiously and honestly, "Recognize, it's the Dead Ghost's knife."
He paused and couldn't help but ask, "How did the dead ghost's knife get to you?"
Jiang Luo opened his mouth, "...... He asked me to give you this knife."
Lu Youyi's eyes widened, Jiang Luo shoved the knife towards him, and Lu Youyi subconsciously took it. The coldness of the knife passed through the black cloth to Lu Youyi's hand, Lu Youyi became even more uneasy, he forced a smile and said: "Does he want to give me the knife to make up for his sins? I won't agree to that, when he ate my food and stayed in my house before, he had already given me this knife as a deposit because he didn't have a dime on him. Although this knife is he is using, but has long been my, with the knife to make amends this is not reuse to take advantage of me? Jiang Luo, you quickly call him out, I don't want the knife, I'll just beat him up to take out my anger."
Jiang Luo felt for the first time how it was so hard to speak, he couldn't bear to look at Lu Youyi's expression and looked down at the weeds on the ground, "He also had a sentence he asked me to bring to you."
"He said 'I'm sorry, Happy New Year'."
Jiang Luo pursed his lips, "I'm sorry, Lu Youyi."
"Teng Bi is dead."
