Xie Rouhui put down the dishes and chopsticks.

This was a very ordinary action, but it made Mrs. Xie on the opposite side tremble slightly.

"Megumi." She couldn't help but shout.

Xie Rouhui looked at her and smiled.

"Mother, I'm ready." She said.

Mrs. Xie looked at the food on the table.

"Megumi, let's eat some more." She said.

Xie Rouhui shook her head.

"Mother, you always have to finish your meal." She said.

There was a bit of sadness in Mrs. Xie's eyes.

Xie Rouhui walked over with a smile and leaned on her shoulder.

"Mother, don't be sad, I'll go down and stay for a while, I'm not sad, and you shouldn't be sad." She laughed.

Her daughter is so well-behaved, she always thinks about the feelings of others first, and she is obviously the most painful at this moment.

Mrs. Xie hugged her.

"Okay." "None of us are sad. ”

Xie Rouhui pressed her cheeks and stood up straight.

"Then I'll go." She said.

Mrs. Xie stood up and took her hand and was reluctant to let go, Xie Rouhui broke free with a smile, made a reassuring gesture at Mrs. Xie and turned around and walked in.

Turning around, there was no smile on her face.

is reluctant, and she is reluctant at this time, so that some people can be more reluctant.

Turning the screen, he came to the compartment, which was a small study, just like the Xie family's usual luxury, beautifully furnished and precious.

Xie Rouhui looked at a bookshelf in front of her that occupied an entire wall, and seemed to hear footsteps coming from inside.

She already knew that this bookshelf was a door.

Xie Rouhui outside the door, Xie Roujia inside the door.

What's inside that?

It's pitch black.

Xie Roujia stood on the steps, and after stepping up the steps, the door of the tunnel was closed, unlike the light in the tunnel that was not far away, there was no light here, perhaps because the steps were not long.

It was pitch black up and down the steps.

Xie Roujia's footsteps stopped, and then she stepped upwards again, and soon reached the end of one step or two, her sight had adjusted to the darkness, and she could see that there seemed to be a wall in front of her, but she knew that this was actually a door.

Xie Roujia inside the door, Xie Rouhui outside the door.

Xie Roujia stretched out her hand and pushed, just like the room she had just come to, and the door turned open.

Xie Rouhui heard a soft muffled sound in her ears, and then she saw the bookshelf in front of her turn, the door opened, her eyes couldn't help but stare at the door with a bigger and bigger gap, and the sunlight in the room began to spill into it, and a figure appeared in the light.

The sunlight poured down on her face, Xie Roujia couldn't help but squint, and vaguely saw a person standing in front of her, she gradually widened her eyes and looked at the person in front of her.

This familiar figure made her trance for a moment, as if she were looking at a mirror.

She rarely took off her mask, and she had long since stopped looking in the mirror in the mountains, and when she occasionally glanced at her face in the water, she almost forgot what she looked like.

At this time, the girl in front of her had black hair, a white face, bright eyes, ruddy lips, and a smile on her eyebrows, and the girl's childishness had faded, and it was replaced by the girl's graceful and graceful.

She is thirteen years old, and she is no longer a child, but a little girl.

Xie Roujia reached out and stroked her upper cheek, and the rough and cool touch brought her back to her senses.

It's not a mirror, it's not what she sees, there's a mask on her face.

Xie Roujia stretched out her hand and moved it back to her ear, pinched the mask, and took a step forward with her feet raised.

Looking at the girl who suddenly appeared in front of her, I don't know if it was because of the mask on her face or because of the darkness behind her, Xie Rouhui couldn't help but tremble slightly and took a step back.

But when she took a step back, the girl stepped forward.

As if she was forced to retreat by her, Xie Rouhui straightened her back and looked at her upright.

What will she say? Cry? Scold? Jeer?

Xie Roujia stepped over the threshold and did not stop, then raised her feet, fell, raised her feet, fell, walked into the room step by step, and crossed Xie Rouhui.

She didn't even say anything!

Xie Rouhui held her hand and turned around, the girl had already walked to the door of the study, seemed to hear the movement behind her, stopped and turned her head.

Xie Roujia's hand that had been holding it to her ear lifted it hard and took off the mask on her face.

She moved her lips and didn't make a sound.

Xie Rouhui felt that the sound in her ears was like thunder.

Please.

She said.

Please!

Please come in, Xie Roujia.

Xie Rouhui outside the door, Xie Roujia inside the door.

No, no, no.

Xie Rouhui thought she could be calm, but when she saw this girl take off her mask at this moment, and then look at the dark steps on the other side that didn't know where it led, she couldn't help but tremble.

I am Xie Rouhui, I am Xie Rouhui, now and will always be! There is no substitute for her! There is no substitute for her!

The girl in front of her had already withdrawn her gaze and raised her head and stepped out of the study.

No! You stop! You stop!

Xie Rouhui raised her foot and chased after him.

"Mother, I'm coming."

His own voice sounded outside the study.

"Megumi."

Mrs. Xie's voice rang out.

Xie Rouhui stopped abruptly.

Megumii! Mother is calling her Megumi!

Although her voice was a little stiff, she could hear very reluctance, but she still called her Megumi.

"Come on, the eldest lady has finished eating, let's clean up." Mrs. Xie's voice continued.

There was a sound of broken footsteps outside the door, and it seemed that a lot of people were pouring in.

Someone is pouring in, can't be seen, and is about to hide.

Xie Rouhui subconsciously turned around and walked directly towards the door, and she was stunned when she crossed the threshold.

Why is she hiding? She's Xie Rouhui! Why is she hiding!

She couldn't help but turn around, but the door in front of her turned and closed almost instantaneously.

It was pitch black in sight.

Xie Rouhui couldn't help screaming and threw herself on the door and slammed it.

She doesn't want to be here, she doesn't want to be in this dark place! She's going out! She's going out!

The door does not move at all and seems to merge with the wall, separating the two worlds.

The girls quickly packed up and retreated, and Mrs. Xie turned around and saw a girl standing in front of the girl with a bowl of tea carefully.

The girl sat in a chair and looked at her hand a little carelessly.

"Miss." The little girl whispered, "You drink tea." ”

Mrs. Xie's heart couldn't help jumping, looking at the girl humming indifferently, and reached out to take the tea bowl.

She deserves it with peace of mind!

Mrs. Xie exhaled.

"Let's go down." She said, "None of you are allowed to enter the courtyard. ”

The girls bowed their heads in response, and walked out with them towards the courtyard gate, and a group of guards walked past them and walked in to surround the courtyard, looking at these expressionless guards, the girls hurriedly lowered their heads and lowered.

"Is the eldest lady going to use witchcraft to treat the eldest lady's leg injury?" Walking out for a long time, a little girl couldn't help but whisper.

The doctor invited by the second master from Fucheng also showed the eldest lady, and it is said that he is helpless, since these doctors can't cure it, then only Wu will make a move.

"Our Xie family's witch doctor is amazing, and now the widely circulated Niangniang mantra for treating children's convulsions is our Xie family, Zeng and Mrs. Zeng personally taught the spell to benefit the people, and it has been blessed to this day." A big girl said with a bit of pride.

"But wasn't that the old days? Later, why didn't our Xie family treat the disease? The little girl asked.

The big girl choked up at the question.

"Witchcraft healing is not an ordinary cure, it is to communicate with gods and ghosts, and it is not a simple matter to communicate with gods and ghosts, there must be offerings and sacrifices." She thought for a while and said seriously, "Sometimes it's still very dangerous, it will be counterattacked, in the past, we Bashu lacked medicine and medicine, so we could only be rescued by witches, but now there are more and more doctors who are also highly skilled, and it is easy to see a doctor, so there is no need to ask for witches." ”

"Besides, what kind of person is our wife, how can everyone come to invite witches lightly, then it's not exhausting." The other girl said, "What do you think of our wife?" ”

The little girl laughed.

"Then since Madame has made a move, the eldest lady will definitely be fine." She said with her hands together.

These words made the girls silent for a moment.

Because of this leg injury, the eldest lady's temper is getting more and more ...... The eldest lady is almost well, otherwise this day is really terrifying.

"It's going to be fine." They clasped their hands together and prayed sincerely, "Wu Qing Niangniang bless." ”

………………………………………………………

Walking through a small door on the other side of the room, you will come to the interior of a large corridor.

"The sacrificial dance is actually very simple, and there are only a few basic footwork and movements."

Mrs. Xie had already changed into dancing clothes, and said as she walked in, saying that she stopped here, because she didn't want to, she only glanced sideways at the girl behind her.

"You learned the opening dances, the ones you danced at that time."

Speaking of that time, although she didn't want to, she had to admit that Mrs. Xie was deeply impressed by the dance that Xie Roujia danced.

She even thought it was Megumi dancing, because the dance was so amazing and bewildering.

That kind of dance should have been danced by Megumi anyway, why is it...

Just like now, it was Megumi who was supposed to follow her to prepare for the March 3rd sacrifice, but it was ...... who was standing in front of her

Mrs. Xie turned around abruptly and looked at Xie Roujia.

"Time is running out, and I don't ask you to dance well, as long as you can jump the whole field, now you can learn from me."

Xie Roujia also looked at her.

"Just learn from you? Did you go to practice with them differently? She asked.

Mrs. Xie sneered.

"Do you know how well Megumi dances? If you go and practice with them now, are you afraid that everyone will not recognize the changed person? She said.

Xie Roujia sighed.

Mrs. Xie shook her hand and walked forward, while spreading her arms and preparing to raise her feet, Xie Roujia's voice came from behind, and there seemed to be a smile in her voice.

"Of course I don't know how well she dances, I've never seen it."

Never seen it before! Is it saying that Megumi didn't skip in front of people once?

Mrs. Xie's footsteps paused, and she hurriedly retracted her jumping body, and turned back angrily.

Megumi didn't skip in front of anyone once, wasn't she killed? She still dares to laugh at her like this! I can't wait to go up and slap her.

"Ayuan, remember, what is the most important thing at the moment, don't waste time, don't be useless."

Xie Wenxing's advice sounded in her ears, and Mrs. Xie took a few deep breaths to suppress the churning anger in her heart.

"Now watch well, learn faster, jump better." She said calmly, "For what you want, you better work harder." ”

For what I wanted.

Seek an opportunity to fight, not a chance to fish on the case.

Xie Roujia stood up straight and straightened her arms, and Mrs. Xie glanced at her, took a step and shook her body, as if in her previous life, she demonstrated the witch dance.

But this time, she was no longer like in her previous life, standing in the corner and shrinking up, trembling and uneasy.

It's not because I'm familiar and not afraid, but because I saw the past clearly, saw the past clearly, and took off the shackles, she wasn't Xie Rouhui, she didn't learn to jump to replace Xie Rouhui, she was Xie Roujia, she was learning to jump for herself.

Xie Roujia straightened her back and jumped up with the dance of Mrs. Xie.

There was no drumming in the hall, only the sound of footsteps on the ground, and the footsteps grew louder and louder, and the thumping on the floor seemed to turn into the sound of drums, urging the dance steps, and the dance steps should be accompanied by the sound of stampede.

Mrs. Xie stopped after more than a dozen steps, and her clenched teeth were released, and she also regretted her anger slightly.

This section is too long, how can she keep up, she has to do it all over again, in Xie Wenxing's words, it is a waste of time.

I can't be angry with her, I'm not for her, I'm for Huihui, for the Xie family.

Mrs. Xie took a deep breath and turned her head.

"If you can't see clearly, stop first, and I'll ...... again"

Without speaking, she stopped abruptly at the edge of her mouth, and Mrs. Xie looked stunned, looking at the girl dancing behind her in disbelief.

She had already skipped her proper dance steps, but she did not stop, and continued to dance and leap and swing in the hall.

It's not a person dancing, it's a fire, a fire burning.

Mrs. Xie only felt that her whole body was hot, and her face turned red from the scorching, and she couldn't help but take a step back.

How can it be....
