Chapter 82: I Didn't Return All Night
Nishang left, I lay on the bed, no longer moving, after sleeping for so many days, my body was no longer tired, but my heart was heavy.
When I closed my eyes, my mind was still full of images of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dying in my arms, and these pictures became clearer and clearer, making me feel more and more painful and self-blaming.
Tossing and turning on the bed, I didn't dare to close my eyes anymore, I was just in a daze, wondering if I was still searching the city outside, and I didn't even notice that my senior sister came in with porridge and side dishes.
"Xiyan, come and drink porridge." She took the porridge and a plate of side dishes to the bedside.
I sat up and took the porridge, which I hadn't eaten properly for several days, and now I feel hungry when I smell the clear porridge.
After holding the porridge bowl, with a plate of pickles, I ate all of them in a few bites, and I wanted to ask for it again, but my sister shook her head and said, eat it tomorrow, don't hold on.
"Senior sister, where is the Divine Monarch? Where did he go? I wiped my lips with a handkerchief and asked casually.
The senior sister put away the empty dishes and chopsticks, said lightly, and Ming Beilin went out to inquire about the situation, and then left the house with the empty bowl.
Inquire about the situation? I was a little worried, now, those spirit worshippers should search for us all over the city, what if they found out about the Stygian Forest.
Thinking so, I quickly got up and got out of bed, walked out of the house, stood in front of the crack in the main door of the living room and looked out, and found that it was pitch black outside, and it was already night.
The old earthworm is gone, and the neon dress has rested.
I squinted uneasily again and looked out.
It's just that the alley outside was pitch black, and I looked at it for a long time, but I didn't see anything.
"Xiyan, why are you up? What if I get cold again? "Senior sister washed the dishes and chopsticks, and when she saw that I was actually in the hall, she hurriedly came over and wanted to help me back to the room to rest.
"Senior sister, how long has the Divine Monarch been out? Did you go out with the earthworms? "I stood still, not moving.
"Well, it's been almost two hours since I've been out." Senior sister replied lightly.
"Two hours? Isn't something wrong? "I was a little anxious.
The senior sister looked indifferent: "Don't worry, he is a big demon, he is not so easy to die, you go into the house quickly." ”
"I'm not going in, I'm just waiting here for him to come back." With that, I sat down on the wooden chair next to me.
Senior sister raised her hand and stroked my forehead: "You have just lost your fever, don't be willful, go back to the house quickly." ”
"Senior sister, now the spirit priests should be arresting us, they have been out for two hours, and they haven't come back yet, how can I go back to the house to rest with peace of mind?" I'm anxious.
"Well, if you don't go in, you will put on some clothes." After finishing speaking, the senior sister walked into the room where I was sleeping, and after looking for a long time, I only found the robe of Ming Beilin, so she took it out and draped it on my body.
I was upset, but when I put on his robe and smell the breath of the underworld on this robe, my heart instantly settled down a lot.
"You're so stubborn." My sister was full of helplessness, but she still sat beside me and accompanied me, and she also entered the house from time to time to see how my brother was doing.
In the middle of the night, I shivered from the cold, and the day was getting colder and colder.
When Beilin and the old earthworm returned, it was already early the next morning, and it was bright outside, so they pushed the door one after another into the hall.
Senior sister was leaning on my side at the moment, both asleep, and as soon as the door opened, I raised my head and met the gaze of Ming Beilin.
He seemed a little tired, but when he saw me sitting in this hall, he raised his chin slightly, stood in front of the threshold, and looked at me condescendingly.
"Chu Xiyan, you have just recovered from this illness, why did you leave the house? Do you want to get sick again? The tone of his speech was a bit "harsh", and with his already cold and arrogant face, it was really unpleasant.
I was worried about him, so I waited here all night, but I didn't expect him to have a cold face.
"Go back to the house, if you get sick again, this god monarch will not care." He stared at me with a grim gaze.
I frowned, thinking, if it weren't for my sister leaning on my side and sleeping soundly, I would have stood up and left right now.
"Eh, Kunshen, close the door first." The old earthworm behind the underworld, because of its short and thin size, was completely covered by the underworld.
When Beilin heard the old earthworm say this, he took a few steps towards the hall.
The old earthworm immediately closed the wooden door, and I found that the old earthworm was still carrying a bamboo basket in his hand.
Beilin looked at me, stood with his hands in his hands, and said no more.
"Divine Monarch? These eats? The old earthworm looked at the North Forest.
Beilin glanced at me: "Give them food, this god is tired." ”
With that, he turned and went into the room next to me, and closed the door.
"Come girl, these foods are specially bought for you by the Divine Monarch, eh, this day, it's too cold, and it's snowing." The old earthworm said and lifted the lid of the bamboo basket.
I looked inside and found that in the bamboo basket, there were more than a dozen oil-paper bags wrapped in pastries, as well as wine jars, and on the sides of these things were more than a dozen strings of sugar gourds.
"Sugar gourd?" I looked at the sugar gourd and lost my mind.
"Hey, this Kun god likes sweet food, right? At the fork in the road, I waited for this sugar gourd for more than an hour, not to mention it, and was almost discovered by a team of spirit sacrificers. The old earthworm said, sniffing.
"The earthworm has worked hard for you, you can eat some too." I watched the old earthworm freeze like this, and hurriedly asked for something to eat for him.
The food in the oily paper bag was still hot, but the old earthworm said that he was not used to eating these ordinary foods, and he had to go back to the back room.
I touched the oil paper bag, and while these were still hot, I hurriedly called my senior sister.
"Senior sister, senior sister?"
The senior sister slept very deeply, because she had just fallen asleep for a long time.
"Hmm." The senior sister replied vaguely, and then she stared in confusion and opened her eyes.
"Senior sister, eat some while it's hot, these are all brought back by the Divine Monarch and the old earthworm." I took out a random bag of pastries and handed it to my sister.
When the senior sister got the pastry, she immediately thought of the senior brother, so she went back to the house to see how the senior brother was doing.
I took out two more packets of pastries and knocked on the door of Ni Shang's room, she was pregnant, she had to eat more, and she couldn't lose her body.
"Neon?" I knocked for a moment, but didn't hear a response, wondering if she might still be asleep.
People who are pregnant are always tired easily, so it is better to sleep longer.
So, I put the pastry back in the basket, took another piece of cloth and covered it, thinking that when I woke up in a moment, maybe the pastry was still warm.
However, these sugar gourds?
I looked at the large handful of sugar gourds, pursed my lips, and looked back at the room of the Stygian North.
I thought in my heart, I should go and say thank you to Beilin, right?
However, when I walked to his door, I hesitated again, and the hand I raised never fell on the door.
