Chapter 17

From then on, there was a girl named Wan Lai in the ghost gate, who stayed by his side as his personal maid. She was not only a servant, but also the eyes placed by his adoptive father beside him, and she became a bridge between him and Yue Li.

, a thorn that can never be removed.

Bai Ying's eyes were cold, looking into the tears in her eyes, with a hint of hatred: She knew that her adoptive father was coming back today, but she chose to hide it and not report it. A person who is worthy of being an adopted father is the most loyal!

Upon seeing this, Wanyi recalled that he hated her touching him the most. The hand that he subconsciously stretched out trembled, and he slowly took it back: "Master, calm down."

Suddenly, Bai Ying chuckled twice, then raised his head and laughed, until his face gradually turned ferocious. He lowered his head with murderous intent, looked at that face and said with hatred: "What kind of benefits has your adoptive father promised you?"

?”

Wan Lei hurriedly shook her head and defended herself: "No slave! How could I harm the young master? However, the sect master said that you have been staying in the ghost gate and only saw her... Young Master! Even if you go to the imperial court now,

You still have a slave, and I will definitely stay with you from now on and never leave you."

Never give up?

Bai Ying suddenly took action and pinched her fragile neck. Her five fingers were as tight as iron bones, forcing her eyes to bulge. Her face turned red due to suffocation, and winding veins were exposed on her forehead.

In the past three years, due to the spy arranged by his adoptive father, he had to keep her by his side as a personal maid. She was not allowed to enter the room, she was not allowed to touch him, and she was not allowed to appear in front of Yue Li at will. Unexpectedly, she

It was still a secret that caused her to have thoughts that she shouldn't have! There was pain in his eyes, as well as regret and violence, and he regretted not doing so.

Soon, Wan Lian's eyelids sank and his body softened.

At this moment, Bai Ying received a painful blow on her wrist. The strength in her palm suddenly relaxed. She turned around and found a stone the size of a fingernail. It fell to the ground and bounced a few times, then stopped.

.

He fell to the ground in tears and fell into a coma.

Outside the door, Yue Li stood there, supported by her maid, with an expressionless face.

The Bai Ying she knew knew how to assess the situation, restrain his sharpness, and also know how to keep a low profile and bide his time. In the past years in the ghost sect, no one had ever had any leverage. Only when he met her did he arouse a lot of dissatisfaction from the sect owner.

So much so that the owner of the house did not hesitate to find a woman who looked like him and sent her to his room.

That night three years ago, when she was about to put out the candle and go to sleep, she suddenly heard an invitation from the maid sent by the master of the house. She said that Bai Ying was very drunk and clamored for her to come.

Yue Li didn't doubt that he was there. She just wanted to save trouble and put on a robe behind her. She didn't even bother to light the lamp. She walked towards his residence in the dark moonlight and just stood in front of the door. Before she could make a sound, the door was blocked by someone.

Pull it away from the inside.

Under the cold moonlight, he looked flustered and nervous, and she could see clearly.

Bai Ying always paid attention to his appearance and always wore a white robe. Even if the midsummer sun was scorching, he still wore a wide robe with wide sleeves, a brocade belt around his waist and white boots. At that time, his outer robe was hung on his arms and his white middle coat

Wear it inside out, with the shirt open to expose your chest, one of the two trouser legs is tucked into the boots, and the other is hanging in the air.

Under the moonlight, the two of them looked at each other and stared at each other. Before anyone could speak, the sound of a woman sobbing came from inside the room.

No matter how stupid she was, she still made a guess. She just felt that she shouldn't be here, turned around and wanted to run away. Vaguely, she seemed to hear his trembling call from behind, but she didn't dare to answer.

, just walking faster and faster, walking as fast as flying. It wasn't until he ran all the way back to his residence that he realized that the robe that was originally draped on his shoulders had fallen somewhere.

The next morning, when she just walked out of the main courtyard, she looked up and saw the woman following Bai Ying, walking towards here. She had to hide behind the rockery, leaning against the wall, raising her hands to cover the bottom of her eyes, which was tingling in pain.

A mixture of flavors.

Are you sad? Or angry?

Yue Li couldn't tell what the emotion was, and she subconsciously didn't want to see him, let alone that woman. However, it was really difficult not to see her under the same roof. She was afraid that he would explain it, and she was even more afraid that he wouldn't explain a word.

After torturing herself for a long time, she didn't want to go on like this, so she asked the sect master to go to Fengchao, the farthest place. When she completed the task and returned to the ghost gate, the two of them had a tacit understanding, and no one said anything.

Mention that night.

She didn't ask, and he didn't come to explain. She just lived her life like this, and she never saw the woman again, but she knew that she was still in the ghost gate and was indeed with Bai Ying.

Yue Li doesn't understand, three years have passed, what's the fuss about today? If you want to fight or kill, why not do it as early as possible, but wait until today? Could it be that the two of them are not in love, or maybe it's just for themselves?

Bai Ying looked out the door, her eyes slightly red: "Yue Li..."

"Bai Ying, it's not my turn to intervene in your matter. I'm here to remind you: it depends on the owner to beat a dog." After saying that, he turned and left.

The maid carefully supported Yue Li, and when the two of them turned out of the courtyard and out of sight behind them, she gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "Girl, you are injured, why bother caring about the life and death of that bitch? You might as well let the young master strangle him to death."

Let's all worry about her."

Yue Li frowned: "Taohong, be careful what you say!"

Hearing this, Taohong's eyes widened and she exclaimed: "Girl! The master of the sect left her with the young master, walking in and out of the ghost gate with such a face. Do you know how those disciples talked about you and this person behind your back?"

Bitch? From what I see, this is nothing more than murder and heart-wrenching."

Yue Li closed her eyes, exhausted mentally and physically: "Stop talking."

Taohong was angry that it was unfair and hated him for not fighting. She immediately stood on the spot, raised her hands to roll up her sleeves, gritted her teeth and said: "No! The girl is good-tempered, but we Taohong are not. Girls, just sit here and rest."

, slave, come as soon as you go." He said and turned around.

Yue Li suddenly turned around: "Come back, don't go!"

Taohong turned around and looked at Yueli who was already angry. She stamped her feet and said angrily: "Girl..."

"Just now you told me that the disciples wanted to drive Bai Ying out of hell, but did you tell me where to go?"

"Fengchao."

Yue Li lowered her eyes and hesitated for a moment. When she raised her eyes again, there was a smile on her face, "That's great!"

Taohong frowned in confusion: "Feng Dynasty is thousands of miles away. The climate there is humid. In summer, it is as hot and stuffy as a steamer. In winter, the room is three times colder than outside. The washed clothes cannot be dried all day long.

, is this also called good?"

Yue Li stretched out her hand and called, "Come here."

Taohong stepped forward quickly and took the hand she handed her. The next moment she was unexpectedly pulled closer and was startled.

Yue Li leaned towards her ear and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "What do you think Bai Ying's temper is like?"

Taohong was stunned and thought for a moment: "Young Master is gentle and polite to others, and the entire ghost sect says he has a good temper. No matter whether he is a servant or a disciple of the ghost sect, he has never seen him quarreling with anyone. He can't even say harsh words on weekdays."

Say less."

Yue Li's eyes darkened, and she continued: "You and I are in the ghost gate, and we are all under the eyes of the gate master. We need to be cautious in every move we make, let alone him?"

Hearing this, Taohong suddenly realized: "I understand, slave!"

Yue Li raised the corners of her lips and gave her a look that said, "You can teach me." Then she turned back and looked in the direction of the lobby: "You have to remember that what others ask you to see is just because they want you to see it. As for this tearful...

..." She smiled but said nothing.

In the final analysis, he is just a poor man. He has his faults and his debts. If he wants to settle the score, it should be settled on Bai Qing's head, right?

Dead of night.

Outside the suburbs, a man wearing a white robe and a black cloak arrived as promised under the moonlight. He raised his hand and took off the hat that covered most of his face, and walked alone into the depths of the jungle.

It was quiet all around, with the occasional gust of wind blowing and the leaves rustling.

In the dense woods, someone was standing with his hands behind his back. Hearing slight footsteps behind him, he said without turning his head: "Didn't you agree that we will only send messages and not meet each other?"

"Early tomorrow morning, I will leave the Great Abyss."

Hearing this, the man was silent for a long time, then slowly turned around and looked up at Bai Ying who was ten steps away: "Where are you going?"

Bai Ying said: "Fengchao."

"When will you come back?"

Bai Ying was silent and said for a long time: "The return date has not yet been announced."

"What happened?"

Bai Ying shook his head and said that he didn't need to ask anything: "I came to you because I hope you can help me with something, so that I can...fulfill your promise to me."

A gust of wind passed by.

The man's clothes were fluttering, and he raised his legs and walked slowly towards Bai Ying: "What's the matter?"

Bai Ying said again: "Save people!"

"who?"

Bai Ying was silent again, hesitating and struggling. He didn't know whether his decision was right or wrong, and he didn't know in what direction things would develop in the future.

It's a pity that I can't reach the Feng Dynasty here.

The man seemed a little impatient and stopped three steps away from him, urging: "He hesitated before speaking. It's not like your style. Could it be that you owe a debt of love here and actually plan to run away and abandon you for many years?"

Are you ignoring your hard work?"

Bai Ying snorted coldly and spoke slowly: "You and I have known each other for many years. You should know that I don't know how to do it. Speaking of which, this all happened because of you."

The man hesitated for a moment and asked suspiciously: "Yam Luo's edict?"

Bai Ying turned around, pulled up the hood of the cloak again, covering most of his face, and walked quickly, whispering in the wind: "Three days later, I want you to take away the new guardian of the ghost gate at all costs.

.”

The man saw Bai Ying's back completely disappearing and stood there thoughtfully.

Not long after, a young man in black jumped down from a tree in the distance, walked behind the man and said, "Young Master, why are you still standing here when everyone is gone?"

Jiang Feng squinted his eyes, as if he remembered something, and smiled dangerously: "Ling Feng, how much money do you think the guardian of the ghost gate is worth?"

Ling Feng was stunned: "Ah?"

Jiang Feng raised his legs and walked out of the woods: "Tell Uncle Lin to prepare to go down and go to the Ghost Gate in three days." He was very curious, wondering what her expression would be like when she saw him, and he couldn't help but feel very good.

Ghost gate.

Yue Li stood under the window, sneezed unexpectedly, raised her hand to rub her itchy nose, and reached out to half-close the window in front of her.

She couldn't sleep.

Tomorrow morning, Bai Ying will leave the ghost gate, and she really doesn't want to see him off in front of so many people. After thinking about it, she might as well go to his door to say goodbye now.

Tingfeng Garden.

Yue Li stood in the courtyard, looking at his dark room with no lights. He hesitated for a while and slowly walked forward, standing under the window and softly called: "Bai Ying..."

After a while, she heard no movement from inside the house, so she guessed that he might be sleeping soundly. She opened her mouth and hesitated. Finally, she took two steps back, jumped up to the roof, and sat on the ridge of the roof bored, looking at the scene.

Looking at the ghost gate in the dark night.
