Chapter 67: Dusty and Mortal
Xia Yuqian didn't know where to look, it was so late, everyone had already slept, and she had no one to inquire about, not to mention that if this matter was revealed, she was likely to be kicked out of the Red Square again. But she couldn't care so much at this time, so she came to the backyard with her intuition.
She hadn't named the little fox yet, so she didn't know what to call it, she circled around the backyard several times, and then ran into the jungle to find it, she remembered that there was a small forest in the backyard, and she was running, and one accidentally bumped into the oncoming person.
"Young Master?" Before Xia Yuqian could stand firmly, when she saw that it was Han Yuluo, she grabbed him as if she had seen a savior, and asked, "Do you see a little red fox?
Han Yuluo was stunned by her, and after a while, she came back to her senses and said: "I found a little fox in the backyard during the day today, but it was very fierce, so I asked my subordinates to bury it......"
"Buried?" Xia Yuqian's brain was a loud bang again, she looked at Han Yuluo, who was younger than her in front of her, in disbelief, and said such a sentence lightly, and a burst of anger suddenly surged in her heart, and she shouted like crazy: "Why do you want to bury it? It is also a life! It is still injured! The injury is not healed! You people trample on the weak by relying on your own little power! Are you still human?"
Xia Yuqian's voice tore through the originally quiet night sky and echoed throughout the backyard.
Han Yuluo was also shocked by her sudden hot temper, and couldn't think of what to say for a while.
"Where are you buried?" Xia Yuqian glared at him angrily and continued to question, but her voice did not lower at all.
Han Yuluo stiffly raised his right hand and pointed to the hillside behind the trees.
Xia Yuqian rushed up with a teleportation, there were small mounds on the hillside, and the corpses handled by Hongfang on weekdays were buried here, and Ah Fang and them were also buried here......
Xia Yuqian looked at the outermost small mounds of dirt in front of her and began to dig hard.
"It's been buried for a long time, and it's definitely dead...... Don't waste your efforts!" Han Yuluo sighed and said helplessly.
Xia Yuqian continued to dig as if she hadn't heard it, and began to regret it while digging, if she had been more cautious at the beginning, maybe the little fox would not have been discovered by others...... Her fingers began to ooze blood, and tears rolled down her eyes in large chunks.
Han Yuluo looked at her a little bewildered, and hurriedly explained: "Actually, it jumped into the backyard by itself and injured people, Mo Xian spent a long time trying to subdue it, but it still tore and bitten, and we couldn't find its owner, so there was no way to dispose of it......"
"Its wounds haven't healed yet! If it hadn't been threatened, how could it have become like that? It's been quiet in the house all the time, and it's not ......noisy," Xia Yuqian became more and more excited the more she spoke, and began to choke.
Han Yuluo closed her mouth helplessly, lest she fight any longer, and her emotions would be even more out of control.
Xia Yuqian dug desperately, and suddenly, her fingertips touched a trace of soft fluff. A glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in her heart, and she dug up even harder, and Han Yuluo unconsciously squatted down when she saw this and helped her dig.
Xia Yuqian dragged the little fox out of the mound, brushed the dust off its body, and touched it tremblingly—its heartbeat was still there, and it was breathing evenly as if it was asleep.
Xia Yuqian hugged it tightly in her arms and stood up, but she kept sobbing.
"The fox has found it...... Go back to the house," Han Yuluo reminded her, "Hide it in the future, don't run out again and let Mo Xian find out." With that, he sighed and turned to walk back.
Xia Yuqian carried the little fox back to her hut and sat down on the ground, she felt that her brain was dizzy, her eyes were a little blurry, and her body was as heavy as lead. She suddenly fell to the ground, feeling numb and unable to move.
At this time, the little fox also opened his eyes, shook the dust on his body vigorously, and looked at Xia Yuqian, who was pale in front of him, with blood dripping from his chest and fingertips.
"Are you awake...... Xia Yuqian looked at it with relief, showing a pale and weak smile, and said: "Don't mess around anymore in the future, otherwise I will really eat you into my stomach......" After speaking, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
The dimly lit hut was completely silent, except for Xia Yuqian's faint and feeble wheezing. The red fox looked at the large blood stains oozing from the placket of her chest, and glanced at the dust on her body - its poison had not fully recovered, and the residual poison in its body had recurred during the day, when it painfully but unconsciously broke free from the small bamboo cage and rushed out of the room like crazy, only to be found and almost lose its life......
The glimmer of light on the candlesticks in the hut was gently extinguished by the evening breeze, and the whole hut suddenly emitted a warm and strange red light.
The man dressed in a red veil gently picked her up and put her on the bed, leaned down to her tear-stained face, his fingertips gently brushed the ends of her curly hair, and a trace of warmth suddenly flashed in his always cold eyes.
"You are the first person who dares to say that you want to eat this young master," Chen Kefan said, his fingertips slid over her somewhat round face, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "It's not too young to be bold. ”
He saw that Xia Yuqian's face still had a reassuring smile, but perhaps due to too much blood loss, his skin began to become cold.
"It's really not worrying," he sighed helplessly, looked at her with some pity, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "remember to be kind to yourself in the future." ”
***************
Meteors streaked across the night sky, and a silver light suddenly passed through the rolling rooftops of Tianhuang City, and the girl jumped, her silver hair spread out in the night sky like a flowing veil, pouring down a little crystal of bright starlight.
Kamiori's toes lightly touched the top of the spire, the cool evening breeze brushed her white and flawless skin, and she stood on a high place overlooking the city that was sleeping deep at her feet, and the jagged towers and pavilions had been extinguished and rested.
"It's still the same, it's not the same as it was five years ago. She couldn't help but sigh.
"It's just the surface, don't forget to see what's in the shadows. The porcelain doll floated in the air behind her, revealing an eerie white smiling face in the moonlight.
The breeze followed and stopped on the eaves not far away, and the black eagle stood on his shoulder.
A thin cloud drifted by, obscuring the moonlight. Under the dark night sky, on the rooftops of countless houses behind him, there were quietly parked the army of the Silver Bun Sect wearing silver armor and holding sharp knives.
