Heroes of the Fantasy World

Chapter 289 Yuyi Academy
(7)

It was three o'clock in the night, and the sound of people in the academy, which had already been turned off, was silent. I don't know when it started, suddenly a room was lit up again, and after a while, there was a cloud of smoke. Spread out.

This is New Year's Eve, when it was supposed to be a time of reunion and sacrifice, but Murong Yan was still troubled by the fact that the lover in her heart did not return all night.This is not the first time she has parted with Bai Feng, and she has survived even under more difficult circumstances.

But now, Murong Yan can always feel in her heart: in this hard-won peace, there is a hint of something bad, a hint of crisis hidden.

Lying in the comfortable and safe lofty room she had been away for a long time, she had been thinking about where the anxiety in her heart came from.

"Obviously I have settled my life and planned my future, so there should be no worries. But...my intuition has always been very sensitive." Murong Yan was thinking in this way, unconsciously feeling horrified, and immediately wanted to get up and ignite all the lights in the house Lighting candles, trying to let a corner of light in the house fill the inner anxiety.

At this time, she was wrapped in a thick fur and her hair was disheveled. She stared at the snow outside the window with a bloodless face, and suddenly remembered her mother's teachings in her mind-wandering: "If you feel confused, you might as well go to divination and pray... "

"But what's the use of divination and prayer?"

"This will strengthen your belief, Yan'er..."

This conversation originated from Murong Yan's ignorant period. At that time, she was facing the snow outside the house as she is now, but she was still accompanied by her mother, and she could still act like a baby on her lap.

After reminiscing, she immediately took out her medicinal herb bag, took a few ounces of yarrow, piled them into several incense burners, and placed them in the four wind directions of southeast, north, and west.

In this way, a strange scene in the middle of the night was created just now.

I saw this Xianbei witch carefully unfasten the copper bell on her feet, and then tied it on one hand, shaking it regularly, moving jade steps lightly, and dancing by herself.

Murong Yan was intoxicated by the sacred feeling of burning incense and praying, and kept asking in her heart: "What should I do?"

When he was young, Bai Feng, who had been outside for a day, was about to go back to the academy to rest with a lantern in his hand. When he caught sight of the academy, he saw something strange coming from his own gate. Not only was the fire full of light, but also thick smoke was billowing. He immediately thought it was a fire. Immediately after climbing over the wall and entering the room, a familiar and strong aroma hit the nostrils.

He looked in through the window outside the house, and knew that Murong Yan was doing something unbelievable again, he couldn't help laughing at himself for being stupid, and immediately wanted to sneak in through the window to play tricks on her.

I saw her tiptoeing, walking in the opposite direction of Murong Yan's dancing steps, gradually approaching from behind her, and when the witch was not paying attention, she stretched out her arms and hugged her, and asked softly: "Yan'er, are you Are you waiting for me to come back?"

Murong Yan was startled, she threw herself into the opponent's arms, and replied: "Brother Feng, tell me, what did Mr. Zhao talk to you about, and why did you delay until midnight?"

"Yan... Yan'er?" Seeing her crying, Bai Feng immediately panicked, hugged her and sat beside her, and couldn't help but reflect on herself: "Brother Zhao and I just went to meet various guests. Sometimes he looks like a doorman, sometimes he looks like a guard, and he can't sit with him in public, drinking and laughing."

"What kind of guests are we meeting?" Murong Yan asked.

Bai Feng replied: "It's just merchants from all over the world, and there are some high-ranking people in Yuyi Town. Yan'er, I haven't drunk alcohol, let alone go to ask flowers and ask Liu, do you doubt me?"

"No, no, no... There are more important things, which are related to your life and death!" Murong Yan angrily broke away from Bai Feng's arms, and sat in front of her, looking as if she couldn't get a satisfactory answer. It looks like it's about to happen.

"Also..." The young swordsman hesitated for a moment, and after all he didn't dare to look directly at the opponent, but seeing Murong Yan tied the string of copper bells hanging around his ankles in his palm, he couldn't help asking: "Yan'er , why is this string of copper bells wrapped around the palm of your hand?"

"You don't need to know about this, just tell me the truth, Zhao Kuo, what kind of important thing is he planning with you?" After thinking over and over again, as if he was planning the right words or lies, he gave an answer after a while.

"Brother Zhao, he told me that we were glued together all day long, as if we had a bond that could not be blocked by floods and heavy snow, so Patriarch Zhao Wei was willing to be a matchmaker for a while, intending to match us up, so as to save us from having long nights and dreaming, and breeding some gossip. If both of us are willing, the wedding date will be on brother Zhao's birthday, and then double happiness will come, and Yuyi Town and the Zhao family will have smooth sailing in the future!"

After hearing this, Murong Yan changed her face instantly, looked at Bai Feng in surprise and suspicion, and asked again: "Then... what did Brother Feng say?"

"I thought that Yuyi Town is full of internal and external troubles. Is it too much work for Yan'er and me? So, I declined Brother Zhao's kindness." Bai Feng said with a smile, just Wanting to grab the opponent's hand, she wanted to caress it, but Murong Yan sent her whole body towards her, leaned tightly into the opponent's arms again, and said.

"Brother Feng's concern is indeed good. Yuyi Town is our home, how can we delay the future of Yuyi Town because of some trivial matters. Besides... between us, why are we afraid of long nights, dreamy dreams and gossip?"

Seeing the beauty in her bosom finally snickered, Bai Feng finally heaved a sigh of relief, like a "sinister thief" who had escaped a catastrophe just now, so taking advantage of this big expression, he held her hand that was still wrapped around the copper bell, She said softly: "Yan'er, your mother, she will definitely protect us."

"Yes, I will tell her." Murong Yan laughed secretly, stood up suddenly, bowed and respected flatteringly: "Sir, you must be tired, right? This concubine will serve you to bed."

"Hahaha." Bai Feng said with a hearty smile, "Yan'er, you are still making fun of me."

After the two joked, Murong Yan helped Bai Feng take off her coat, and very respectfully served her to bed.The young man who returned late at night received excellent care, and naturally fell asleep very quickly.

At this moment, Murong Yan secretly extinguished all the lamp flames, took only one candlestick that was still lit, and walked out of the door alone, heading straight to where Zhao Xiaomei, who was temporarily staying in Yuyi Academy, was.

Seeing that Murong Yan came here boldly, the little girl was naturally very suspicious.Her face was sleepy, and she never expected that Murong Yan would entrust her with anything.

Then, Murong Yan expressed her doubts about Bai Feng and Zhao Kuo to her younger sister, and privately asked her for help, saying: "Brother Feng's behavior is so abnormal, he must be hiding something. He is not a prodigal son, so, it is only possible You are doing something very dangerous. Younger sister, you are the only one here who can enter and leave Zhao’s house freely, please..."

Regarding this good sister's request, the little girl naturally agreed without saying a word.However, as a daughter, it is difficult for her to get in touch with the daily affairs of the Zhao family, let alone confidential matters?
The little girl didn't know how to explain it for a while, but she had to grit her teeth and take one step at a time.She was so depressed that she was half asleep and half awake until dawn.
