Chapter 86
It is said that there is a high mountain three hundred miles to the north where the border between Dachu and Dayan is connected. There is snow on the top of the mountain that has not melted for hundreds of years.

Being able to find snow lotus here is Gou Yue's biggest expectation these days.

She had never met Yu Zhouzi. When the Kongshan Sect sent Wen Yuanzhi back, Li Xianchen brought a message from his master.

Some of the poison in Wen Yuanzhi's body has been detoxified, and he will wake up soon. If you want to prevent him from coughing in the future, you can go find the snow lotus that still has its root system.

She originally wanted to return to Dachu territory and find Xuelian for him, but the snow mountain behind Haizi has troops stationed all year round. Nan on the snow mountain is not disturbed by the people below, so it is really difficult to go up.

She had no choice but to focus on this snow-capped mountain.

Wen Yuanzhi couldn't bear the bumps, so she had to walk slowly.

In the ice and snow, her long eyelashes were covered with a thin layer of ice and snow.

Going up further, people can still rely on their internal strength to hold on, and she also transfers some internal strength to Wen Yuanzhi from time to time. However, it is really difficult for the horse to pull the rear cart, and foam is spitting out from the corners of the mouth.

There was only the sound of falling snow everywhere, as if they were the only two people left in the world.

Gou Yue lay in the carriage and stopped driving the horse forward. The carriage stopped on the ice and snow, with a lake covered with thick ice underneath.

She closed her eyes, held Wen Yuanzhi's hand, and listened to his breathing, so that she felt more at ease.

Wen Yuanzhi was covered in thick white tiger skin, and her slender white fingers were tightly held by her. She didn't know when it was, but she fell asleep for a long, long time.

For the first time, there was nothing in her dream.

It's just blank, nothingness, no sudden rain or wind, no desert grassland, and no palace in the Central Plains.

She is at ease.

When she woke up, a pair of eyes as dark as ink jade were looking at her with a smile.

Gou Yue thought he hadn't woken up yet, so she touched a strand of white hair on his temples. Since he fell into coma, there had been a strand of white hair on both sides of his temples.

"I'm sorry, but actually you don't have to do anything for me." Gou Yue said softly.

He held her hand and put it to his lips. He looked at her blankly at first, then smiled, "Oh, what did you say I did for you?"

Gou Yue thought she heard wrong, until she felt the warm breath on his lips and sat up suddenly, "You...when did you wake up?"

Wen Yuanzhi covered her with tiger skin and said, "Since you fell asleep."

Gou Yue turned her head to one side. When he fell asleep, she could stroke his hair gently. Now that he woke up, his eyes were still as warm as before, but she couldn't help feeling guilty about the white hair on his temples.

She has always been obsessed with him, she thought to herself.

She also wanted to smile at him, and then blame him for not taking good care of herself, and why she was poisoned for no apparent reason, and yet she had to bother saving him.

But she didn't dare to look up at him, for fear that he would see the tears in her eyes.

If only she had just hooked up with the moon, then she could still joke with him as she did in Mei County, argue with him, play tricks, break promises, hook up with him at night, and talk to him again outside the door. Farewell, say goodbye tomorrow.

that would be nice.

But why does she have to think of those unforgettable past events in the past, why does she still hate Mo Du, and why does she still feel ashamed of the private soldiers who died to save her?
Forgetting is sometimes a gift. If you can't remember, there will be no pain. Living with a new identity, no responsibility or hatred has anything to do with her.

However, she was grateful in her heart for Modu's arrow, which completely stopped her from thinking about it.

When she was a child, Mo Du protected her, fed her, taught her horse riding and archery, and took her to catch bugs at night. He was several years older than her and taller than other children of the same age. He often held her in his arms, When he was around, no one dared to bully her and call her a bastard and a slave.

The little concubine and the eldest concubine said when she was 13 years old that she would definitely have a place in the future as a silent concubine.

She didn't understand the love between men and women at that time, but she just thought that being with Mo Du was the best thing in the world.

Everyone said that Mo Du was concerned about her, especially when they came back from Ruozhi. She protected him for several years in Ruozhi, and her martial arts became even better. The king and concubine liked her very much for some reason. She was obviously the child of Yan Ren and Chu people. Logically speaking, she is the most despised bloodline in the Imperial Court of Chu, but the king and concubine told her that if Modu takes over the king's tent in the future, she will be the concubine, and let a girl with the blood of the Yan people do it. Concubine, Gou Yue couldn’t believe it.

In the year when Modu invaded Liangzhu, the king's concubine became the empress dowager, and Modu's biological mother, Concubine Yundana, was named the empress dowager. The empress dowager proposed more than once that Modu should take the concubine first, even if Even if a queen is not established, she must first recruit concubines to fill the harem.

She called Gou Yue to dress her up, but Mo Du did not touch her. He said that she was an eagle in the sky. If she became a concubine, she would only be staring at the sky surrounded by palace walls in a daze. .

She thought that thinking about her was love.

If a man refuses to think about the woman he loves and wants to trap her, then he is not sincere.

In addition, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager often told her that she was the only one in Mo Du's heart. She heard the lies so many times that she began to believe them, and she believed them unswervingly.

In fact, thinking about it many years later, Mo Du never loved her at all.

Maybe he likes her, but that is also from the perspective of a master. What he likes is that she fights for him bravely and takes the lead, rather than wanting to protect her, possess her, and love her. He does not do so from a man's perspective. I said I loved her.

It was her eyes and mind that were deceived, thinking that it was love.

Fortunately, so many swords fell on her body, and she knew it hurt.

Even if he doesn't make way for Han Cheng, it won't work. If he wants the Central Plains family to surrender, how can it be done without General Han?

She might be able to deceive herself that Mo Du gave up her life for the sake of the throne, but the little letter on the arrow feathers was indeed the Soul-Seducing Knife.

She opened the little letter and was immediately tortured on the battlefield.

Memories of her childhood came over her like mountains and seas, and she couldn't resist them at all.

How could she not remember what the letter said?

Such a tragic past, when she became a young girl a few years later, she still could not forget it.

When a person begins to forget the most important part, it is often the part she cannot forget. It is hidden under the scar and no longer bleeds, but there is definitely a wound underneath.

Only then did she remember how she asked others to help write this little letter and gave it to her mother.

She said how the people in the royal court abused her, that she was covered in wounds, had nightmares every night, and begged her mother to take her away.

But she was in good condition, and there was no injury anywhere.

She had deceived her mother, and she remembered that it was she who had deceived her mother and led her into this trap.

In order to take her away, my mother slept forever on the Dachu grassland with her body broken.

And she, the most cowardly one, forgot the most important part.

She hated the old King Chu who gave the order, and Yan Yabo who executed the torture, but she forgot that the culprit was herself.

If it weren't for her lies, my mother wouldn't have died at all.

She will escape to Dayan and return to the arms of her family.

It was her lies that made her come back and take her away at all costs.

How could they escape with a child? They were quickly caught.

So what if she killed King Chu. She had never seen Yan Yabo's whereabouts in more than ten years. Maybe she wouldn't be able to find him if she lived longer.

What's more, she herself is guilty of many crimes.

In order to repay Mo Du's kindness, he took the throne and spared his father's life.

The purpose is to let her kill her enemies with her own hands.In fact, Gou Yue figured it out now. He just didn't want his father's blood on his hands, so he asked her to do it for him as a favor.

How could someone as ruthless as Mo Du care about her life and death.

Not only did he want her to die, but he also wanted to break her heart in the end. Knowing this, she smiled slightly and then committed suicide in Yunshan.

She knew that her fate was lost, and Modu and General Han would not let her escape Liangzhu until the end of the battle.

Her hands were stained with the blood of countless people. Han Cheng said that she was a beast that only knew how to kill. When she was about to die, she thought of the eyes of those she killed on the battlefield, full of resentment.

In order to help Mo Du, she killed countless people.

Those court hawks did not kill her immediately, but caused her to lose her dignity and pride, broke her spine, and made her completely defeated.

It's ridiculous that she didn't die on the battlefield, but died in the strange clouds and waves in the palace.

Those hidden weapons and swords hit her, and she was so painful that she couldn't scream many times. In order to protect her, those people died one after another.

Maybe only if she dies can everything end and the chaos be brought to order.

So she's damned.

The fate with Wen Yuanzhi was something she had never imagined.

They met on the way to escape. She didn't like a Central Plains person like him. He had a deep mind and could never guess his thoughts. He even taught Mo Du to be so vicious.

If you think about it carefully, if it weren't for him, Mo Du would only be more difficult to balance among the various forces. He could only be controlled by General Han and completely become his puppet.

Her encounter with Wen Yuanzhi was achieved through all her suffering. Only after she died once did she realize that he was the only one willing to shed tears for her.

If she had not experienced that palace change, she would not have died.

Nor will he meet Wen Yuanzhi again.

If he didn't add some intrigues, she wouldn't have come to him at all. The trap Mo Du set for her was full of thorns, pricking her with blood, but the trap Wen Yuanzhi set for her was filled with warmth. She fell down with cotton and sweet fruits, and for the first time she felt that there was such a person in the world who was willing to care about all her happiness and unhappiness.

Life and death are fates arranged by God for her. She feels very lucky to be able to meet him and hold his sincerity.

He looked at her for a long time and smiled softly, "Don't you think I'm fine? Don't be afraid."

Gou Yue hurriedly wiped her tears and said firmly, "You accidentally poisoned yourself, so be careful next time."

Wenyuanzhi all came down, opened the curtains, and saw a sheet of ice and snow in front of them.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

Gou Yue said, "Put on your thick fur, we are going to ride up."

"Why?"

Gou Yue said, "Your poison caused a cough. You coughed up blood in your sleep a few days ago. Someone told me that picking the snow lotus here and chewing it immediately and swallowing it can cure your cough."

Wen Yuanzhi observed for a moment and said, "Let's go down the mountain."

Gou Yue refused, "It took a lot of effort to get here, how can I give up?"

She thought for a while, Wen Yuanzhi had just woken up and was indeed exhausted. If she left him here, she could find Xuelian within half an hour and let him take it.

"Wait for me here." She was about to go down.

Wen Yuanzhi grabbed her, his hands weak, "I'm fine, there's no need to find any snow lotus."

How could she listen to him? She pushed him back into the car and said, "Take the quilt and cover yourself up. There is enough charcoal fire in the carriage. It is sheltered from the wind. Wait for me for a while and I will come down."

Wen Yuanzhi's pale face made him even weaker, and he followed Gou Yue out of the carriage.

Gou Yue was untying his horse. When he saw him coming out, he asked, "Why are you coming down too?"

He said, "I'll go with you." He could never change her mind.

"If this doesn't work, go back to the car."

"If you must go, take me with you. Otherwise, if you go to the top of the mountain, I will go down the mountain."

Gou Yue shouted, "You're crazy! If you go down there, the wind and snow are so strong and it won't freeze you... you will freeze to death!"

"Then it's up to you. If you go up, take me with you, otherwise we'll go down together."

Gou Yue was really helpless, so she asked him to get on the horse, shared a horse with him, wrapped his clothes tightly for him, "Sit tight!"

"drive!"

On the winding mountain road, two people, one man and one woman, rode a horse together and moved forward slowly.

The higher he got, the thinner and colder the air became, and Gou Yue quietly used her inner strength to warm him up.

Soon I heard his coughing getting worse.

Gou Yue is strong and healthy, and these wind and snow are nothing to her, but Wen Yuanzhi simply cannot withstand such bad weather.

When I walked to the mountain road under the sun, I was still a little warm. If I walked to the dark mountain road, the air-conditioning was pressing and the cold wind was biting.

She held the reins, pressed the bridle and touched his cold hand. She was about to hurry up when she heard Wen Yuan's words, "I think the terrain here is very steep. Walk slowly and don't be impatient. If you are shaken, this place will be very dangerous." The snow may cause an avalanche, and you and I will be buried alive."

Gou Yue took the water off the horse's belly and asked him to drink a few sips first. While the water was not completely cool, he could also ask him to drink something warm.

Wen Yuanzhi took a sip and handed it to Gou Yue. Right here, he suddenly heard the sound of horses treading on the snow behind him and saw three or four big men rushing behind him.

With deep eyebrows and rough appearance, he is from Chu.

One of them passed by Gou Yue and Wen Yuanzhi's horse and saw the two of them drinking water. The water in the water bag was still steaming. He laughed and said, "You two, we three brothers have been on the road so far, and we haven't had a sip of hot water yet." Water, can we all take a sip to warm ourselves up?"

Wenyuan's way of saying, "When you are away from home, you should naturally support each other."

Gou Yue didn't see him being so enthusiastic. Although these three people were not equipped with swords, it would be difficult for people to believe that they were not martial arts practitioners with such rough bodies.

She handed the water bag over, "Please use it."

"I wonder where you two are going?"

Gou Yue became alert and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Wen Yuanzhi slowly said, "Go to the Imperial Court of Great Chu."

Several people laughed, "Then you are going the wrong way. If you go this way, you will only get further and further away from the royal court."

Wen Yuanzhi then asked, "The two of us went to Da Chu to seek refuge with our relatives. Because we had never been to the royal court of Da Chu, we took a sidetracked path. I hope you three can give me some advice."

The person who borrowed the water just now said, "We are going to Ejialan and we can't see each other off. But if you climb over the top of the mountain and walk all the way to the south, you will be close to the White Rock Desert in Ruozhi. Walk along the outside of the White Rock Desert and cross There is a river, and if you ask for directions, you can reach the royal court of Chu."

"Well, thank you so much, big brother." Wen Yuanzhi said, "Let's get on our horses and set off."

Gou Yue nodded, got on the horse, and whispered, "What are you planning?"
