Flower Moon

Chapter 36 So confident?

In the evening, Hua Ling counted the time and set up a brazier at the door of the house, prepared grapefruit leaves and wormwood, boiled the bath water, and waited for Tao Yue'er to go home with peace of mind.But in the middle of the night, Tao Yue'er was still not seen.

This was the first time that Tao Yue'er didn't come home on time.

Hua Ling finally couldn't help it, put on a cloak, held a plain paper lantern, and searched all the way in the direction of the prison.

Hua Ling walked back and forth three times, but she never saw Tao Yue'er.I searched for vendors along the road to inquire, but no one said that they had seen her.

Hua Ling was completely anxious.

Where can Tao Yueer go alone?

"Hey, isn't this Young Master Hua, are you finally willing to go out?"

There was a teasing laugh coming from behind, Hua Ling didn't put it in her ears at all, and she didn't think he was calling her, so she kept walking and went straight forward.

But how could the owner of the voice let him go so easily?

Ji Hanyu quickly walked up to Hua Ling, stopped him, and pushed him up and down heavily: "Tsk tsk, let me see, you still pretend to be so weak and helpless."

Only then did Hua Ling realize that he was talking to herself.

Two beauties came over and stood by Ji Hanyu's side - he was drinking flower wine upstairs just now, and when he saw Hua Ling, he became interested for a while.

It's not that he has any interest in Hua Ling, he just thinks of Tao Yue'er beside him for no reason.

"Why aren't you waiting at home?" Ji Hanyu asked.

"Wait for what?"

"Waiting for Tao Yue'er to dress and feed you!"

Hualing's celestial appearance is very dazzling in the crowd.Although thin and thin, he is not a person who does not discriminate between grains and grains.

Hua Ling didn't bother to pay attention to him, so she just bypassed him and went elsewhere.

Ji Hanyu didn't want to make things difficult for him, he wanted to continue drinking by himself, but seeing his nervous appearance made him a little strange.

Could it be that something happened to Tao Yue'er?
Ji Hanyu untied the money bag from his pocket, handed it to the two beauties, and dismissed them.Then he followed Hua Ling, and kept saying beside him: "Where are you going? Did something happen to Tao Yue'er?"

"Have you met him?" Hua Ling heard the doubt in his tone, and guessed that Ji Hanyu must have met Tao Yue'er today.

Ji Hanyu nodded generously and said, "I sent her off outside the city in the afternoon, but within a few miles, there was a decree from the Holy Majesty to pardon the world. I thought she was fine and left."

"Then why didn't you bring him back?!" Suddenly, Hua Ling stopped walking, furious.

He grabbed Ji Hanyu's collar with his hands, and he was quick and ruthless, without giving anyone the slightest chance to take precautions.

Ji Hanyu was startled, and asked him back: "Why should I save her?"

Although Tao Yue'er is very docile and cute, they just met by chance, so they have no obligation to save others, right?
Although...he really wanted to save her, Tao Yue'er was still not that important compared to Immortal Lord Penglai.

Ji Hanyu glared at Hua Ling, and said with a broken smile, "Besides, since you care so much about her, why didn't you go and send her?"

"I..." Upon hearing this, Hua Ling felt that she had gone too far.

Ji Hanyu has no obligation to guarantee Tao Yueer's safety, they have no friendship, and even have old enemies, how could he ask Ji Hanyu to save Tao Yueer?
Hualing let go of Ji Hanyu, turned her eyes away, ignored him, and continued to pick up the lantern and go looking for Tao Yueer.

Looking at his cold back, Ji Hanyu moved his shoulders, and suddenly felt that Hua Ling's skill might be stronger than his face powder.

If it was a coincidence that he was fascinated by the fragrance powder last time, but if he confronted head-on, could he win?
He's not quite sure.

The long sword behind Ji Hanyu clanged again, Ji Hanyu sighed, and said: "I know I shouldn't approach him, but this time the situation is special, I will definitely not associate with him again in the future."

Ji Hanyu finished talking as if talking to himself, caught up with Hua Ling, and asked him, "Is Tao Yue'er missing?"

Hua Ling walked away on her own, ignoring him, but judging from his look, her guess was not wrong.

Ji Hanyu said: "I'll look for it with you."

Hua Ling still ignored him.

Ji Hanyu couldn't help but take out a Xuan Qingzong's signal flare from his arms and handed it to him: "If you find Tao Yue'er, report to me. If I find it first, I will also notify you."

Hua Ling glanced at him, but left without answering.

"Oh, so confident?" Ji Hanyu was so angry that he jumped, but he also knew that now was not the time to argue with him, so he put away the signal flare and walked in the opposite direction of Hualing.

In the middle of the night, Ji Hanyu found Tao Yue'er in the woods outside the city.

It's not that he and Tao Yue'er have a good heart, it's because Tao Yue'er planted thousands of miles on her body when she was about to go to Muzhou.From now on, no matter where Tao Yueer goes, he can find her by looking for Qianlixiang's unique fragrance.

This is what he did not tell Hua Ling.

Maybe he didn't want Hua Ling to find Tao Yue'er in his heart, let alone inform her of her whereabouts.

When Ji Hanyu found Tao Yue'er, Tao Yue'er was sitting on a rock by the stream with her arms around her knees.She buried her face between her legs, looking dejected and dejected from the back.

Ji Hanyu felt that the person in front of him was more like his former self.

Although Tao Yue'er is about the same age as her, she is not half as mature in her dealings with others.

Ji Hanyu sighed, walked to her side, and patted her on the shoulder: "Why are you here?"

Tao Yue'er raised her head in astonishment, as if she hadn't expected that someone would appear in this wilderness, and this person could be regarded as an acquaintance.

"Why are you here?" Tao Yue'er's eyes were red, and there were still wet tears on her face.

Ji Hanyu sighed again: "I'm also a fallen person in Tianya, I don't ask about your past, and you don't care about me."

"Oh..." Tao Yue'er heard the words, thought it was true, nodded, and buried her head again.

"You really don't want to ask anything?" Ji Hanyu laughed.

Tao Yue'er raised her head with a confused look on her face: "What do you want me to ask?"

"Don't you think we are destined?"

Tao Yueer shook her head: "I don't think so."

After Ji Hanyu appeared, nothing good happened. The first time he met him, Shui Sheng was driven into a frenzy; the second time, the epidemic turned him into ashes;And this is the fourth time... She can't imagine what will happen next.

"Why do you have such an expression on your stomach? Am I that annoying?" Ji Hanyu said helplessly.

Tao Yue'er glanced at him indifferently, and wanted to turn her head away and ignore him.But Ji Hanyu was one step ahead of him, raised her chin, stared at her forehead, and asked in puzzlement, "Did they torture you?"

Tao Yue'er's eyes turned red, and she knocked off his hand: "As you can see, from now on, I will be a thief who everyone shouts and beats! No matter if I have done it or not, this brand will always remain on me face!"

"You care about it?" Ji Hanyu frowned.

"Can I not care?" Tao Yue'er became even more angry, and said immediately, "It's a stain on my life, a stain that doesn't belong to me at all, but was imposed on me by others!"

"If you don't care, then it's not a stain. If you really don't want to see it, you can cover it up." After Ji Hanyu finished speaking, he took out a kit from his bosom. Inside the kit was a wipe The forehead, the forehead is a crimson brocade with black patterns on it, and there is a piece of suet white jade in the middle of the forehead.

Ji Hanyu tied the forehead between Tao Yue'er's foreheads, which happened to cover her tattoos. He smiled and said softly, "Look, you won't be able to see it this way."

Tao Yue'er caressed the brocade on her forehead, the silky texture was the finest silk she had never touched before, and it could be seen that it was expensive and definitely not something ordinary people could have.

"It's too precious, why can't I have it." Tao Yue'er said, wanting to take off the forehead.

"I've given it to you," Ji Hanyu stopped, "I have [-] forehead wipes like this, so don't worry about it, it's just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that it's best to take off this white jade, it...may bring you disaster."
