This is not the first time Feng Xiaoqi has done such a strange thing.

If the person sitting opposite Xiao Qi at the moment was Feng Yishu, he would slap his hands on Feng Xiaoqi's palm, and then say with a look of disgust, "What medicine do you take if you are not sick?" Don't think about it all day long, and try to do everything that is useless."

But Feng Yan is different.

Feng Yan rarely makes such doubts, and never laughs.

She stared at Feng Xiaoqi's palm, seriously thinking about her answer.

This is also Feng Xiaoqi's favorite place about her sister.

For Feng Xiaoqi, when she traveled to an alternate era alone, she became a stranger who could never return to her homeland. The profound loneliness brought about by this drift has unimaginable torment for those who have not experienced it.

Just as Feng Yan raised her sleeves and was about to make a choice, Feng Xiaoqi suddenly took both hands behind her back.

"Huh?" Feng Yan raised her eyes, "Why did you take your hand back?" ”

"Because I don't think either option is good enough." Feng Xiaoqi became serious, "I have always believed that the so-called 'protagonist' is someone who can make the third choice. There are red pills and blue pills in front of you, no matter which one you choose, you will fail, a real protagonist, you should have to give a third choice. ”

"That's it......" Feng Yan thought for a while, she stood up and gently stroked Feng Xiaoqi's hair, "Then I understand." ”

"What does Sister understand?"

"Going to Si Tiantai to find a job is the red and blue pill given to Xiao Qi by others, and Xiao Qi wants to earn his third choice."

Feng Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly was very moved.

"Did you come today to tell me this story?" Feng Yan asked again.

Feng Xiaoqi nodded—Sister Ah even heard this.

"Why?"

"Because I want my sister to know that at any time, people can have a third choice, but sometimes people may not be aware of it.

"If, in the future, I mean, somebody makes you feel like your life is in a desperate situation, and it's as if you're left with very bad and worse options, you can always jump out and not be stuck with those options."

Feng Xiaoqi grabbed her sister's hand seriously, "Because at any time, I will stand on my sister's side." ”

Feng Yan could see the sincerity in Xiao Qi's eyes, but ......

"Hmm......" Feng Yan frowned slightly, "But, who would put my life in a desperate situation?" ”

……

"Ahh Wei Xingzhen sneezed coldly.

Ji Ran glanced at him on the side, "Yo, Lord Wei, is this a cold?" ”

"It's fine." The two walked out of the gate of Dali Temple quickly, and Wei Xingzhen said in a low voice, "Master Ji will send it here." ”

Ji Ran stood still, "The meeting of the Ping Demon Department in the afternoon, Lord Wei really doesn't plan to listen to it?" ”

"You make a record, and when it's over, send someone to the Fengge official office."

"Is it my delusion?" Ji Ran looked at Wei Xingzhen, "How do I feel, Lord Wei doesn't seem to be worried at all?" ”

Wei Xingzhen got on the horse in a few steps and said to Ji Ran, "...... Because I believe in both the level of Master Ji's case judgment and the level of demon hunting of the Ping Demon Bureau. ”

The two of them shook each other, and then with a brisk "ride", Wei Xingzhen and his people and horses quickly disappeared from Ji Ran's field of vision.

At noon, the sky and the earth were white.

Ji Ran squinted his eyes and waved his hand slightly, and two people quietly came out from the nearby eaves and followed closely.

……

In the evening, Feng Yan sat alone in the courtyard and chewed on what Xiao Qi said to her today—Xiao Qi had already sensed Wei Xingzhen's dislike for her, and had her own guess.

But...... In this matter, there is clearly another possibility.

There was a sound of footsteps in the distance, Feng Yan looked sideways, and saw that he was running towards this side.

Before the man could reach him, he asked, "Madam! It's almost time, and the adults haven't come back yet, do you want to eat something first? ”

Feng Yan shook her head, "No. ”

"You'd better eat some first, even if you have to wait for the adults to come back, you can eat something first, if you're hungry—"

"You're so noisy." Feng Yan said with a smile, "I said no, I just don't be hungry." ”

Go and scratch his head, "This...... How can you not be hungry, you ate so much with Miss Seven at noon, and you have been sitting here since you sent Miss Seven away, and it is impossible not to be hungry until the evening, the adult said before——"

Feng Yan sighed and stood up, "Let's go." ”

He laughed and turned around to lead Feng Yan, "My lord has explained before, you have to let your wife follow the hour for three main meals a day, you eat less at the main meal, and it is best to prepare porridge and vegetables in the kitchen at any time, so that——"

He walked a few steps forward before finding that Feng Yan hadn't followed.

"Ma'am?"

He turned his head and saw Feng Yan standing in place in the sunset, staring intently in the direction of the backyard.

He suddenly became nervous - because Feng Yan's gaze at the moment added a bit of hunter's meaning. He looked in the direction of Feng Yan's gaze, but the entire backyard was quiet, and there was nothing unusual about it.

"Mrs. saw what—"

"Don't follow me."

Feng Yan whispered this sentence and walked alone along another path in the direction of the backyard.

“…… Wife! ”

Feng Yan didn't look back.

The changing light and shadow of dusk gradually turned dim, and the time of yin and yang was very short.

Feng Yan felt everything around her attentively, and the strange aura that seemed to be absent was hidden in the summer breeze that rose from time to time.

When the canopy gradually turned from golden orange to light blue, Feng Yan's footsteps finally stopped in front of the barrier in the backyard.

In front of her was a bare sandy field—this should be the place where Wei Xingzhen had warned her not to come alone.

Siye returned to his usual quietness, and Feng Yan closed her eyes.

The previous seemingly nonexistent movement was only for a moment, but it felt very familiar to her.

Her first instinct was that the dryad had returned, but when she looked back, she felt that there was something subtle in it.

Dryad's breath...... It is the last class, it is turbid, and although its joy and sorrow are very similar to those of human beings, the strong and majestic emotions are very recognizable.

However, this time the lurking is a little more tricky and cunning, like still water flowing deep, silent.

The corners of Feng Yan's mouth lifted slightly, and she suddenly had a little expectation for this enemy who was hiding behind the scenes at the moment - maybe the monster she had to face this time would not be as boring as the previous few times.

Her consciousness centered on the ground beneath her feet, slowly spreading outward.

This layer of golden halo soaked through the enchantment laid by Wei Xingzhen, and along the surface, it gradually covered an entire manor.

Feng Yan's steps took another step.

In the corner of Simon's stables, a stranger with the smell of blood lurked there.
