Chapter Eighty-Nine: Strange Whereabouts
I could only walk up to him, crouch down slightly, pull out the handkerchief, and wipe his tears for him.
Hongtu pushed my hand away, choking uncontrollably, and his little nose was already red.
"Tutu don't cry, tomorrow, won't you be able to fill your stomach?" I opened my mouth to coax him.
Hongtu pursed his lips, with tears in his eyes, and his expression was a little stubborn.
"Tutu, was the Divine Monarch in your house last night?" I asked again.
Fuyou yawned and said a little vaguely, "Xiyan, why do you ask that?" Didn't Rat Gui say that the Divine Monarch rested here last night? ”
Hongtu still tilted his head and did not answer.
He's angry, he's playing a tantrum.
"If the Divine Monarch was here last night, did he give you something to eat?" I asked deliberately, so I asked.
When Hongtu heard this, he immediately turned his head, looked at me with big round eyes, and opened his mouth and said, "Tutu didn't eat!" Last night, Tutu himself, himself, was in the house. ”
He choked up because he had been crying for a long time.
However, I have already understood, last night, the Stygian Beilin was really not in the house of the grand plan.
"And where did he go?" My eyes sank slightly, and I muttered to myself.
"Little Ancestor, you can't talk nonsense just because the Divine Monarch won't let you eat." Fuyou immediately looked at Hongtu, and then said to me: "Xiyan, Childe is not in the house, where else can he go?" Don't think nonsense, although there is a peerless nine-tailed fox in Nanling, our god monarch will never steal it, fishy. ”
"What?" I frowned, why did the floaters say that? What else can the nine-tailed fox have to do with this matter?
"Childe has indeed inquired, the list of demons on Nanling, now that the three-faced demon king is dead, the nine-tailed fox is the head of the demon beasts, and it is rumored that the nine-tailed fox crowns the entire Nanling, how many men flock to it, even the previous demon king, also asked to see him with ten thousand gold." Float carefully explained the reason.
"This matter should have nothing to do with the nine-tailed fox." I know that in the words of floating swimming, it is worry, I suspect that the North Lin, last night was to see the beautiful fox demon, and my worry is not about this.
Moreover, even a gorgeous woman like Ni Shang was not tempted, and I didn't care about the nine-tailed fox.
"Oh? Since Xiyan, you don't think so, then why do you still ask where Childe went last night? Even if he wasn't in the grand house, he might be in another room. "On the surface, it sounds reasonable, but we have our own room, so why should we go to other rooms to live?
I thought about it, but I still think that the "disappearance" of Ming Beilin last night and tonight is related to the repair of the temple in the back mountain.
"Floating, how are the trees in the back mountain cut down?" In my opinion, there is a bit of a "greasy" in this.
"The logging, it's done, a large clearing has been vacated, and now it's ready to be piled." Float thought for a moment and said.
"Why don't you ask a craftsman to take a look? Just drive the pile? "It is said that there is a specialization in art, and I don't invite an insider to take a look, I'm afraid it won't work, right?
"Xiyan, who is our son? And what else he won't? Isn't it just piling? "The floating lobby is very light.
I listened but lowered my eyes slightly, and then fell silent.
"Xiyan, are you worried about the progress of building the temple?" Floating looked at me, speculating on what was going on in my mind.
I shook my head: "Fuyou, you have been with Shenjun for the past few days, do you think there is anything abnormal about him?" ”
"Something unusual? No? He was always cold, and he didn't speak, sometimes he didn't say a word all day. Fu You said, thinking for a while, as if he thought of something: "Oh, by the way, he seems to have some things on his mind, but I think he should be too tired, after all, his old wounds have not healed, and new injuries have been added, and now, he has to watch the temple be built." ”
"What about the others? Like, what about the men he hires? I simply asked more bluntly.
Fuyou looked at me, and didn't understand the meaning of my words for a while, but said: "Childe has always been cold to outsiders, and you know Xiyan." ”
After replying to this sentence, the float seemed to be an afterthought.
His eyes widened for a moment, and then he fixed his gaze on my face.
"Xiyan? You don't suspect that the disappearance of those people was caused by Childe, right? Floating looked at the expression on my face, and I didn't have to respond, and immediately understood what I was thinking.
He hurriedly shook his head and said, "Xiyan, what are you thinking in your head?" Why does Childe want to harm those who are irrelevant? You, is it that Childe has been too busy recently and has no time to accompany you, so he is thinking nonsense? ”
"No, me?" I would like to say that this is just a hunch in my heart, an idea that pops into my mind inexplicably.
Float stood up and walked up to me, he leaned over slightly, tilted his head and stared at my face.
I took a slight step back: "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”
"You don't look very good, can't you be sick?" After he said that, he raised his hand and put it on my forehead: "Really, Xiyan, you have a fever." ”
"Fever?" I raised my hand and pressed it on my forehead, and it was real.
My mind was all on Beilin's body, and I didn't even notice that there was something strange in my body.
"I'll help you go back to the house to rest, there is a rat in this house to take care of, and Childe can also take charge of himself, and you don't need to worry about building a temple, you just need to take care of yourself, don't distract Childe." Float said as he helped me out of the room.
"I'll go back by myself, you look at Xuan Ling and Hongtu, especially Hongtu, don't let him sneak out of the house to eat." I glanced at the ambitious plan with a face full of grievances, and told the floater.
"Can you walk back then?" The floater looked up towards the opposite side of the cloister.
"In just a few steps, I can get there myself." I said, gently pushed away Fuyou's hand, and walked in the direction of his room.
Seeing that I was fine, Fuyou also went into the house to guard the grand plan.
And I, on the corridor, was blown by the night wind, and my body shivered unconsciously.
However, I did not intend to rest tonight, but left the door open, and pulled a circle chair, sat behind the door, and quietly observed the movement outside the room.
I think that the North Shadow will come back quietly like last night.
And so it was, and the next day, before midnight, I saw a blue shadow coming down from the eaves.
His movements were so fast that as soon as I saw him, I immediately put the circle chair to one side, and hurried to the edge of the bed to lie down, pretending to sleep.
I had just laid down with a "squeak" when the door was pushed open, and then I heard footsteps slowly approaching the bed.
"Ma'am?" He called me in a low voice, and I still closed my eyes, pretending to be asleep.
