Chapter Thirty-Seven: Turning Over the Ancient Jade
Regarding Xiaoxue's statement, Sun Zhukuai was noncommittal, he was still full of doubts but did not easily draw conclusions. www.biquge.info I don't want them to dwell on this matter too much, because it wouldn't be good if they were suspicious of the crescent pendant. I don't want to involve them in this, after all, this broken pendant is not a good thing, and it will definitely kill those who own it.
And this crescent pendant is related to the cat demon, this is a big thing, it must be handed over to the master or Xiao Hanqi, and I can rest assured that they will dispose of it. So I decided to continue patrolling, and the broken bird was dead anyway, so I left it alone. Sun Kuai also meant this, and ordered us to start patrolling again, and Blaze saw how the bird looked and hated to kick it away, before following us and starting to patrol around the altar.
The night was uneventful, and I was always vigilant because I was carrying such a "time bomb" on my body, and I didn't find any signs of being followed all night. When chatting with Xiaoxue, I inadvertently asked about the things I bought on the day of the fight, and asked her if she had ever bought me a crescent-shaped pendant, and she replied no without thinking about it, because she knew that I didn't like to bring jewelry, so when she bought me things, those things were no longer in her consideration at all. I asked her if she had bought herself such a pendant, and she replied that I didn't, because she had recently become obsessed with step shaking and had never bought any other jewelry.
I was much more relieved to hear her answer, it seems that the problem is with me, I don't know when this thing was mixed into the things I bought, so Xiaoxue shouldn't be in danger, right? The crow's owner must have known that the crescent pendant was on me, or that I was within his suspicions, so he sent the crow to follow me. But where did I get the crescent pendant? How did the crow owner delineate the range? Can the raven pass the news to his master when he is dead? Does he know that the crescent pendant is on me now? …… I have too many questions that I can't answer, but I know exactly what the most urgent thing is, and that is to hand over the crescent pendant to Master or Xiao Hanqi!
As soon as I got home in the morning, Xiaoxue and Blaze went back to their nests to sleep, while I was busy changing out of my white uniform, freshening up and eating a few bites of food, and drinking the medicine under the supervision of Uncle Zhong. Later, I asked Uncle Zhong where Master was going or when he would go home, but Uncle Zhong didn't know anything, so I had to go to the palace to find Xiao Hanqi. Putting this thing next to me for a minute is torture for me, and I have to send it away immediately!
I told Uncle Zhong, and when the master came back, he asked him to go to Xiao Gongzi's place to find me, and then get up and leave, even taking the carriage was too slow to walk in a straight line on the roof with light skills, and when he flew to the gate of the palace, he was already too tired to be human. I reported my home to the doorman, afraid that they would not buy my account, so I specially brought out the master and asked them to help report it, but I was told that his Xiao Gongzi was not in the house, and I asked them if they knew where my master Qianqiu was, and the result confirmed that my bad luck was too strong.
I'm struggling with whether to wait for Xiao Hanqian to come home. Or go home and wait for Master? Master, he will come to me if he comes home...... I'm still waiting for Xiao Hanqian here! I made up my mind and asked the doorman to help find Ziyan or Ziyu, but I didn't expect it...... I'm simply the reincarnation of a declining god! Ziyan followed Xiao Hanqian out, and Ziyu also went out to buy things, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back in the evening. When the host is not there, the palace does not entertain guests, and the doorman kindly asked me to enter the mansion in the name of seeing the county lord, but what happened at the banquet last night is still vivid, no matter how stupid I am, I can see that the county lord does not want to see me, how can I be stupid enough to send it to the door for people to whole? I refused their kindness, so I sat at the gate of the palace and waited.
Originally, they were not allowed to sit because of the obstruction of view, but out of fear of my master, they could only turn a blind eye. I didn't mean to be embarrassed, I was really sleepy, cold, tired, and nervous all night, and it had reached the point where I couldn't stop. At first, I sat on the steps and waited, but after a long time and three strokes of the sun, the sun sprinkled on my body warmly, making people yawn and sleepy, and I had to force myself all the time to resist the surging sleepiness. Sometimes I pat my face, sometimes I pinch my legs, sometimes I stand up and jump a few times,...... But in the end, I still didn't hold on, and I fell asleep in a flicker......
In my dream, I was lying in a small boat floating on the sea, and it was very comfortable! In the world of sea and sky, the boat keeps drifting...... Floating, ......, it seems like there is no end to it, and I think it doesn't seem like a bad thing. Suddenly the wind was howling and the waves were raging, the sky was obscured by dark clouds, a huge crow was hovering over my head, I was so frightened that I screamed but there was no sound, the crow opened its big mouth like a black hole, and spit out countless kittens from its mouth, and smashed at me and drowned me, and the sea water was gone! In its place is an endless ocean of countless kittens. I struggled desperately in the sea of cats, and I was soon engulfed again when I just showed my head, until finally I couldn't climb out again, but I still didn't give up, I was still waving my arms desperately, and suddenly someone grabbed me, I was pulled up, and after a dazzling light, I saw that the person was Xiao Hanqi, who was looking at me curiously.
I was afraid of falling into the sea of cats again, so I shook Xiao Hanqian and shouted, "Run! What to see? What should I do if I am buried by a kitten for a while?! I looked down and saw that the cat was gone, I was sitting on a bed, and my body was covered with a quilt, this time I looked confused, and looked up and asked Xiao Hanqi: "Why are those cats gone?" Big Raven ...... This? As I spoke, I felt that something was wrong, tilted my head and half-tilted my head, and said, "It's all a dream?" Am I still dreaming? ”
Xiao Hanyan burst out laughing, tapped my forehead, and said softly, "Guess what? ”
I've never seen Xiao Hanqian smile like this, and he has never spoken to me so gently, and now I think it's more likely that it's a dream! But what if not? It's still the old way! I stretched out my hand and pinched my arm, and then said to Xiao Hanqian with a bitter face: "It hurts ......, it's not a dream." ”
Xiao Hanqian smiled and shook his head, looking helpless. "What a fool! All right...... Now that you're awake, get up and eat! If you have anything to do, you won't talk about it until you're done eating. ”
“…… Affair? "I suddenly remembered my intention, and I remembered the crescent pendant." Yes! Pouch! I lifted the quilt and looked for a purse on my body, but my waist was empty, I was in a hurry, rummaging around on the bed, and screaming: "Purse...... Pouch! My purse is gone! ”
"What purse? Are you not bringing or ...... Elsewhere? ”
As soon as he reminded me, I calmed down and thought about it. That's when I remembered that I tucked it away in my clothes to be safe. I immediately rummaged through my body and found it easily. I hurriedly opened it to check, and found that the crescent pendant was safe and sound, and my whole heart was finally put down. I lowered my head and sorted out my emotions for a while, and felt that I was calm enough before I raised my head and said to Xiao Hanqi: "Xiao Hanqi, I am in big trouble again!" Before Xiao Hanqian could react, I took over and explained to myself: "But this time it's not the trouble I'm looking for, it's the trouble I'm looking for!" Not for me! ”
Xiao Hanqian changed his face to seriousness. "Say it!"
I took out the crescent pendant from my purse and handed it to him, and he took it and looked at me for some reason. I sighed and said, "That's the super big trouble!" "Next, I first talked about the origin of the pendant, although I can't tell the specific situation of how it came to me, but I also described in as much detail as possible the situation where it happened that day; Then he told him about what happened yesterday when he was followed and what happened in the Valley of the Hidden Demons at night. In the end, he concluded: "That's the way it is, it's too unsafe to keep this thing around me, and sooner or later someone will have to snatch it away." If it was snatched by its original owner, it would be better to say, but if it was snatched away by someone with bad intentions, then Yuquan would not be turned upside down? I think it's safest to let you or Master go. ”
Xiao Hanqi's expression returned to his previous coldness, and his brows furrowed deeply. Seeing him like this, I felt a little uncomfortable, tugged at the corner of his clothes, and said optimistically: "You don't have to worry so much, anyway, this crescent pendant is in our hands, even if there is a bad guy, what can we do, he can't grab it, he can't turn the sky." Again...... I don't believe it was robbed, he can still collect enough blood for three kinds? ”
His face warmed up a lot, rubbed my head and said, "You did a good job this time, you should be a hero." Fortunately, this bone jade fell into your hands, and you made the right judgment in time, so that we would not be passive. This bone jade will be kept by me for the time being, and you should not mention this matter to outsiders for the time being, in case there are any extraneous branches. ”
I promised, "Don't worry, I won't say anything, or I'll take an oath!" As I spoke, I raised my hand and was about to swear, but before I could open my mouth, my hand was held by Xiao Hanqi.
He said: "Oaths are given to those who do not believe in themselves, and you never have to do that with me." ”
What is Touched? I guess that's how I'm feeling right now, I want to cry but not because I'm sad. I lowered my head to hide my emotions and gently "Hmm. He replied. Suddenly, I remembered the county lord of Qingling, and my heart was sour, and I withdrew my hand from Xiao Hanqi's hand. Xiao Hanqian opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something to me, but I was suddenly so nervous that I was afraid that he would say something I didn't want to hear, such as him telling me that he was going to marry the county lord of Qingling or something, or telling me that his family Yingyu didn't like me, and he would never pay attention to me in the future...... And so on and so forth.
Before his words could be spoken, Ziyan's voice sounded outside the door: "Childe! Sawasaki asks to be seen. ”
