Next Chapter

In the middle of the night, the bright moonlight filled the streets of the imperial capital, the wind howled, rolling up the few dead leaves on the ground, the streets were empty, and the forgotten corners, darkness swallowed everything.

In the dark and damp firewood room of the Night House, a thin body was shivering, and the withered yellow hair, like dry weeds, was stacked in a haphazard manner, as if it had never been tidied up. It was a little girl, dressed in rags, under the tattered clothes, the red blood marks were so eye-catching, the wounds had not yet scarred, and the palms of her hands were also large and small wounds, because of malnutrition, her legs were as thin as bamboo poles, and her clothes were so wide that they were obviously small, and a pair of shoes that had long been torn were so dirty that she couldn't see the original appearance.

"Don't hit me, don't ......," the girl murmured, "not me...... Don't hit me...... Why...... It's not my ......." A tear crossed the sallow little face, and the voice grew lower and lower, until in the silent night, there were only one or two insect chirps left. The girl's body gradually became colder.

"Miss...... Miss...... Guess what Little Peach found......" The voice came from far and near, and a child with a bun in her hair came running from a distance, only to see joy between her eyebrows.

Outside the door of the firewood room, Xiao Tao couldn't wait to push open the dilapidated wooden door. Didn't hear any response, the person lying on the ground didn't move, Xiao Tao had an ominous premonition in his heart, threw away the stolen medicinal materials in his hand, ran quickly, trembling hands, and touched a body that was already cold.

"Wow!!" Xiao Tao grabbed the girl's shirt and cried, "Woo...... It's not good for Xiao Tao, if Xiao Tao is faster, you won't die of fever because of your injuries...... It's all Momo's fault...... Whining...... It would be nice if Momo ran faster......"

It's just that Xiao Tao, who was crying wolf, didn't notice that there were more dots of golden light in the air, which gradually sank into the little girl's body and disappeared.

In the darkness, a black figure flew out from the sky above the firewood room, silently, heading to the direction of the Yefu Snow Garden, and finally disappeared in the Snow Garden.

"Woo...... The crying continued...... Miss.

A pair of sharp and deep eyes quickly opened in the dark, "Noise! The owner of the eyes said impatiently, out of inertia and alertness, and as he spoke, he pushed the man who was holding his arm and pushing and screaming. He took a step back, but because of his weakness and injury, he didn't retreat far. The sharp eyes quickly looked at the surroundings and the little girl who was pushed away by himself and was still staring at him dumbfounded. The dilapidated space, with decaying mahogany pillars supporting the house that looked like it was going to collapse at any moment, a roof with a few missing tiles and a few beams of moonlight leaning. It looks like it should be a firewood house. Merely...... The section near the right is dry and the one on the left is damp, and the mixture of the two makes the air smell rotten, damp and unpleasant. It seems that there should be a larger firewood room next door for kitchen food, and this small firewood room is estimated to be just a cover-up, and the specific intention is self-evident.
