Chapter 16: Stand-ins
When Du Xiaowei saw clearly that it was me and Beilin outside the door, she opened the door completely.
Then, without waiting for us to ask, he hurriedly told us that today, the messenger of God sent clothes and flower petals for bathing, saying that she would have a good rest these days.
After Du Xiaowei finished speaking, she raised her trembling hand and grabbed my wrist.
"Girl, do you really have a way to save me?" The corners of her mouth twitched, and her eyelids were already very swollen, presumably frightened when she saw the "divine messenger" again.
"Miss Xiaowei, don't be afraid, we will have a way to save you." As soon as my words fell, Beilin said to Miss Xiaowei, "Hand! ”
Du Xiaowei and I both looked at him suspiciously, not knowing what he meant.
"Hurry up." Beilin said impatiently.
Du Xiaowei's eyes were red, and her eyes were still looking at me.
I took her hand and sent it to the underworld.
Ming Beilin grabbed Du Xiaowei's index finger, and then Du Xiaowei let out a "hum", I looked at Du Xiaowei's index finger and found that her fingertips had overflowed with blood.
Beilin took out the Turen statue hidden in his sleeve again, and dripped the blood on Du Xiaowei's fingertips into the navel of the Turen statue.
The navel of this native statue is as if it is "alive", and it quickly absorbs the blood.
"What is this?" When Beilin let go of Du Xiaowei's hand, Du Xiaowei came to her senses and pointed to the native and asked us.
"Your stand-in." Ming Beilin replied without thinking.
"What? My stand-in? Du Xiaowei's face showed a wry smile: "You plan to take such a clay figure to fool the gods?" ”
Du Xiaowei pointed to the statue of the native in Beilin's hand, her eyes full of disappointment.
"Miss Xiaowei, don't worry, this matter will definitely be done." I opened my mouth and handed her the pastry box: "You take these and eat them slowly." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, but don't meddle in this matter, you can't fight the gods." Du Xiaowei was willing to accept the pastries and rice noodles, but she didn't want me and Beilin to continue to meddle in her affairs.
She said that the food we sent was also a great help to her father and mother by leaving rations.
"Birthday." Ming Beilin looked at Du Xiaowei: "Write it on red paper, give it to me." ”
"I said, no need, we just met in the water, you don't need to pay for your life to save me." Du Xiaowei said that, she was about to turn around and enter the house.
I grabbed Du Xiaowei's hand and looked at her very sincerely.
"Miss Xiaowei, let's give it a try, if we can do it, then it will not only be you who will be saved, but hundreds of girls in the entire Nanling." As soon as my words fell, Ming Beilin handed her a piece of red paper.
"Hurry up." Ming Beilin urged lightly.
Du Xiaowei frowned and shook her head slightly.
Originally, she probably thought that we would really find a girl to replace her, so she had a glimmer of hope, but now she is extremely disappointed when she sees this native statue.
"Miss Xiaowei, if you try, there's always a little hope, isn't it?" I persuaded.
Du Xiaowei sighed, put the pastry box on the side of the door in the house, then took the red paper, and at the request of Ming Beilin, wrote down his birthday with the blood between his fingers and handed it to Ming Beilin.
Beilin took the red paper and glanced at it, then took my hand and turned around to leave.
"Two!" Du Xiaowei opened her mouth and stopped us.
I turned my head to look at her.
She looked at us and said with a solemn face, "Two, you better think twice." ”
"Don't worry." I smiled at her.
It's just that such a reassuring sentence can't make Du Xiaowei really feel at ease, and her face still has deep worry.
I knew that it would be useless to talk to her more, so I just asked him to rest earlier, and then walked out of the alley with Ming Beilin.
"Don't you even ask me, what's next?" Beilin looked sideways at me.
"I have always been assured that you always have your way, and I don't need to ask." I thought, since Beilin made a statue of a native person, it had his own reason.
Hearing me say this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You just believe me like that? ”
"You are my husband, I don't believe you, who do you believe?" I asked rhetorically.
"Well, this sentence is very useful, and at night, I will definitely reward you with a good life." As he spoke, a hand hooked my waist.
"When did you become so out of shape?" I looked at him.
He also looked down at me, not only the corners of his mouth, but even the corners of his eyes were raised, and he seemed to be really happy to be here.
"You look so good when you smile." I looked at him and couldn't help but raise the corners of my mouth.
When you are with someone you like, that's probably it, when he's happy, you'll be as happy as him, or even happier than him.
"Are you teasing this god monarch?" He took my hand tighter.
"No, I just think that after you came to this Fenglinyun, husband, you smiled a lot, and I like to see you happy." I told the truth.
The smile on his face became even stronger when he heard this: "Happy days are still to come." ”
With that, he led me and walked towards the carriage at the entrance of the alley.
When Rat Gui saw us coming, he immediately lifted the curtain of the carriage and waited for us to get into the carriage.
"Madame, would you like to go shopping again?" Stygian Beilin glanced sideways at me.
I shook my head, thinking that there was still the three-faced demon king to deal with, where would I still have the heart to go shopping?
"Tired? Then go back. He helped me into the carriage.
Sitting in the carriage, Stygian Beilin's hand was on my body and I was leaning on his side.
"Is it cold?" He whispered in my ear.
I shook my head: "It's not cold." ”
As I spoke, I squinted slightly and looked at the North Moon.
His hand gently patted on my shoulder, just like in the past, coaxing Xuanling to sleep.
I tilted my head sideways, snuggled into his arms, and murmured, "How nice it would be if I could do this forever?" ”
"What?" Hearing my whispering, he asked.
I shook my head slightly and stopped talking.
It's just that the way back to the house seems to have become extremely short, almost instantaneous.
Ming Beilin helped me get out of the carriage, and Rat Gui pushed the door of the house open.
Moreover, he also said in passing: "Shenjun, Mrs. Hades, the little one will go and prepare the clothes for bathing." ”
"Not anymore tonight." I still feel sore, but I can't explain why.
"Madame Hades, but what's wrong with that soup room?" Rat Gui raised his small black bean-like eyes, looked at me and asked.
