Time always flies, and in a blink of an eye, it has come to the day when they agreed to go to Zhouzhuang.

Mrs. He looked at her daughter's radiant appearance, and couldn't help but carefully advise in her ear: "Xingyao, you must come back safely, you must have heard a lot of stories about Zhou Zhuang outside, don't always meddle in things, you know?" ”

He Xingyao smiled and nodded, and hugged his mother tightly by the way, He Muzhi was still resting because he was still young, so he didn't come out this time, which made He Xingyao feel a little regretful.

In this way, saying goodbye to relatives and friends, He Xingyao followed Chu Yuan to the vicinity of Zhouzhuang, although the two of them didn't have a lot to say along the way, they were not bored after all.

She suddenly thought of the little guy beside her before Chu Yuan, so she couldn't help but ask, "Chu Yuan, why didn't you bring someone out today?" Was that guy before? ”

As soon as he heard this, Chu Yuan couldn't help but look at her and said, "I dismissed her." ”

"Why fire?"

"Words and deeds."

……

Between the two people's questions and answers, they seem to have a tacit understanding, but the relationship between them is always distant and cold, giving people a very deliberate feeling.

It was getting late and late, and Chu Yuan couldn't help but look at her and said, "Xingyao, let's go find an inn and sit down first!" ”

He Xingyao smiled and nodded, she had wanted to say this for a long time, but she was preemptively said by the person in front of her.

However, she didn't want to go to the inn to rest because it was getting late, but because it was the early autumn season, and she didn't seem to feel much during the day, but it was cold at night.

In this way, the two men continued on their way, and after another quarter of an hour, they found a somewhat dilapidated inn.

However, even so, they still don't dislike it, as long as there is a place to stay.

Chu Yuan took He Xingyao to sit in the innermost part of the hall, and then asked for some delicious food by the way.

I saw that the shopkeeper pretended to greet the guests, and said to them: "This Zhouzhuang was not so evil, but I heard that a few years ago, there was a beautiful woman who lived in, but I don't know why, the woman has not come out since she moved in." ”

He Xingyao pursed his lips and said in a disdainful tone: "Maybe people don't want to come out?" Doesn't that mean you didn't say it! ”

The shopkeeper said: "Listen to me slowly, that beautiful woman somehow, I heard that after living in, she hugged the big tree in the courtyard all day long, shouting Yao'er, and I don't know who Yao'er is." ”

After a pause, the shopkeeper continued: "I heard that the beautiful woman seems to have come out of the palace, I don't know if she offended any enemy, hey! It's a miserable man! ”

When He Xingyao heard this, she felt a little mixed in her heart for a while, she heard someone calling herself "Yao'er" in her dream the day before yesterday, and there were too many secrets in Zhouzhuang.

Chu Yuan saw her wandering in the world, and couldn't help but gently knock her head with a folding fan, "What, are you fascinated by listening to the story?" ”

She shook her head, in fact, Chu Yuan was only half right, after all, Zhou Zhuang's secret, they still have to explore it together!

So, she suddenly said mysteriously to Chu Yuan: "Actually, I'm getting more and more curious about this place, as long as everyone mentions Zhouzhuang, it's like being frightened, I'm really getting more and more curious about the secret behind it!" ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the shopkeeper suddenly shushed, and his movements looked cautious, which made people have to be suspicious.

Chu Yuan knew the purpose of his trip, so he didn't panic, but just said quietly: "Then do you know what the woman's name is?" Why did you go to Zhouzhuang? ”

The shopkeeper shook his head, it was obvious that he didn't know anything about these at all.

So, Chu Yuan and He Xingyao looked at each other and smiled together, and they both went back to rest.
