"Xiao Hei, you have entered a misunderstanding...... You think that when I become your kind, I will be in danger and innocently killed like the Black Bloods of ancient times. However, who knows about the existence of the black blood clan now? Who knows that black blood can sustain life? As long as you don't say it, I won't say it, we can completely hide it. Shen Yan'er said.

Hearing this, Xiao Hei slowly turned his head and looked at Shen Yan'er, who was methodically analyzing the current situation, with a sudden realization of his gaze.

Shen Yan'er started with the conclusion: "We can't quit the draft now. If you just go back in vain, the few great sins you have committed will be enough for you to die a few times. We must bring your sister back - or at least find out her whereabouts before we can ask the patriarch to pardon you. I have a hunch that we're very close to your sister now......"

After listening to the story of the Black Blood Clan, Shen Yan'er's mind had gradually sketched the outline of Baoyin's disappearance before and after. They once found a four-leaf clover mark left by Bao Yin on the wall, followed the direction of the mark, and later found black blood stains on the ground.

This proves that the matter of Baoyin's black blood has been exposed.

Shen Yan'er didn't know if those who found Baoyin's black blood knew the origin of the black blood, but she could have a hunch that it must have something to do with Baoyin's disappearance.

"Can we assume like this......" Shen Yan'er said and slowly raised her hand, stroking the wound on her neck that had just healed, "She was also like Miao Pu at the beginning, and she became the target of public criticism after entering the mass grave. In order to avoid the pursuit of the show girls, she had to choose the most dangerous long straight road. As a result, she was bitten by the walking corpse, and a large pool of black blood was shed......"

"But why did her mark disappear there?" Xiao Hei asked puzzled. Bao Yin will not die after being bitten by the walking corpse, and when she recovers, she will definitely leave a mark when she continues to move forward, but the truth is that the mark disappears where the blood appeared. It proves that what Bao Yin encountered at the beginning is far more complicated than Shen Yan'er imagined.

Shen Yan'er shook her head. Now there are too few clues, and all of them are just speculation. Maybe only when you enter the palace and ask the show girl who entered the palace last year can you ask the truth.

Then all three fell into their own musings and did not say anything more. Shen Yan'er got food and water from Xiao Hei and ate some of them. It's not that I'm not really hungry, but I don't have a appetite at all when I think of Ah Zhen's death.

Xiao Hei said that it was already the seventh day of the night. He and Miao Pu planned to rest here for a few hours and continue their journey tomorrow. Fortunately, Shen Yan'er woke up in time, otherwise, Xiao Hei would have to hold her tomorrow.

That night, Shen Yan'er, who had returned to the world after going around the ghost gate, curled up in the cold corner, burying her face deep in her tattered clothes. From the outside, she was motionless, as if she had already fallen asleep, but only she knew how painful she was that night, how difficult it was to sleep.

Holding the handful of hair left by Ah Zhen tightly, knowing that no amount of regret would be useless, he still couldn't help but let the deep grief drown him like a flood.

After Xiao Hei and Miao Pu fell asleep, Shen Yan'er finally couldn't help but sobbed quietly. At the thought of never seeing Ah Zhen again, and not even finding her body, the spiritual pillar that had been supporting her was as if it was broken.

The songs that Ah Zhen sang before she died, and the words she left behind were deeply engraved in the depths of Shen Yan'er's mind. She secretly swore more than once: Ah Zhen, don't worry, as long as I can survive, I will let you die to understand.

On the eighth day, Shen Yan'er was the first to wake up. She felt that her body had recovered a little, and her body was conscious, so she leaned against the wall and tried to stand up on her own with trembling legs. As a result, it took a quarter of an hour just to get my ass off the ground, and I felt dizzy in front of my eyes, and I almost passed out several times.

After hearing the movement, Xiao Hei and Miao Pu, who were highly alert even in their sleep, woke up. Miao Pu, who had slept in the corner of the wall with his hands in his hands, just raised his eyelids indifferently and glanced at Shen Yan'er, then closed his eyes again and was silent. Xiao Hei hurriedly got up and lifted up Shen Yan'er, who was almost falling.

Shen Yan'er frowned and shook her head fiercely, shaking off the overwhelming dizziness, and showing a strong and dismal smile to Xiao Hei, as if to say "I'm fine". But how can it be okay? She knew she was going to be a burden today.

"Your body is still very weak, don't worry, it will be fine after a while." Xiao Hei gently helped Shen Yan'er back to the wall.

Shen Yan'er nodded, she didn't doubt this. She could feel that her body was much stronger, and if it was her former self, she would probably still be lying on the ground and couldn't even lift her fingers. Unconsciously, his body has undergone some abnormalities, probably because of the relationship between drinking black blood.

In order to recover as much as possible, Shen Yan'er endured her grief and gnawed on the dry and hard cake until her throat was so choked that she couldn't swallow it anymore.

At this time, Miao Pu had already adjusted his state, got up and moved his limbs, ready to continue to set off. She made a color to Xiao Hei, and Xiao Hei suddenly hugged Shen Yan'er from the ground without saying a word. Shen Yan'er was so frightened that she screamed slightly, stared at Xiao Hei with wide eyes, and said apologetically: "I can stand up, you can just hold me." ”

"That's too slow." Miao Pu stiffly cut off Shen Yan'er's words, glanced at the ever-bright lamp on the wall and said, "The lamp oil is about to run out, and we are running out of time." ”

There was a hint of urgency in her faint tone before the crisis approached. After hearing her words, Shen Yan'er stopped struggling and obediently let Xiao Hei hold her.

After being swallowed up by the darkness for two whole days, Shen Yan'er, who knew that kind of fear, still had palpitations in her heart. Now they are in the danger zone where the ever-bright light is about to go out, and if they don't hurry, they will not be chased by the walking corpse, but by the darkness.

"By the way, I have a solution." Shen Yan'er, who was held in Xiao Hei's arms, got closer to the lamp on the wall. She leaned out and pulled the nearest lamp from the wall.

Looking down, there was only a thin layer of grease left, which was only enough to burn for another half an hour. At this time, Shen Yan'er did a strange behavior. She actually pinched it with her fingertips and wrenched the wick inside.

"What are you doing?" Miao Pu asked fiercely.
