Xiao Muqing was in a bad mood, but when she heard the driver's master, her mood was even lower, she just went home, so she immediately interrupted the driver's words, "You can help me stop at the Gumo intersection." ”

Xiao Muqing knew, how dare the taxi driver drive into the Gumo Road leading to the old house of the Xiao family?

So she stopped at the intersection and walked by herself, and it took 10 minutes to get there.

Seeing that Xiao Muqing insisted on going, the driver could only shake his head helplessly and start the engine.

Along the way, the driver's eyes have been staring at Xiao Muqing through the rearview mirror.

It made Xiao Muqing uncomfortable.

After 40 minutes, the taxi finally stopped at the Gumo intersection, which is located at the southernmost tip of Los Angeles.

Xiao Muqing scanned the code to pay according to the meter, and got out of the car directly.

The taxi behind him, as if he had seen a ghost, squeaked ~ and drove away.

Xiao Muqing muttered while carrying her schoolbag, "Hmph, are you afraid of this?" ”

Turning around,

This familiar road, she hasn't walked for a long time.

In her previous life, after the accident of the Xiao family, she collapsed and never set foot here again.

Being reborn and coming back here is one of her greatest wishes.

She wants to find out the truth about the sudden destruction of the Xiao family, work hard to make money, and restore the once glorious Xiao family to its original state.

With light steps, Xiao Muqing wore a school uniform and walked towards the depths of Gumo Road step by step.

The 'Old Mansion of the Owl Family', like Xiang Yejun's 'Dark Night Manor', is also located at the edge of the city, deep in the woods.

And the wide road she was walking on at the moment was sandwiched in the woods and stretched to the mansion of the owl family.

The trees that were originally pruned by the gardeners are now dense with leaves, and some of them are hanging on the ground.

The road is overgrown with weeds on both sides......

With a complicated and heavy heart, Xiao Muqing walked to the door step by step.

In the center of the magnificent high wall of red bricks and black tiles, a dark red gate with ancient carved dragons and phoenixes stands majestically.

Because of the previous fire, and because no one has taken care of it for too long, the gate is covered with sludge and dust, and the bronze lion doorknob is rusty.

The big red lantern that originally hung on the top of the gate with the word owl written on it was cut in half, and it swayed miserably with the cool evening breeze.

Xiao Muqing's starry eyes were filled with a layer of mist.

He took a deep breath before slowly stepping up the stone steps.

Push open the door~

"Squeak~Karma~" The piercing voice sounded in the silence, and it was extremely cautious.

Xiao Muqing was not afraid, and looked up as she walked in.

The house building of the Xiao family is the style of the official residence of the dignitaries of the Republic of China, there are no modern high-rise buildings, they are all ancient houses.

At this moment, those red brick buildings were burned to black and gray by the fire, the gardens and pavilions in the original courtyard have been destroyed, and even the pond in the courtyard is a dead fish, and the lotus flowers are decaying.

Before Xiao Muqing came, she desperately told herself to be sensible, not to think about those sad things, she wanted to cheer up and revive the Xiao family.

But when she returned home and saw the Xiao family so dejected, she was really heartbroken and couldn't breathe.

This yard carries so many of her childhood memories.

Dad accompanied her to paint in the lotus pavilion, and the family drank tea and danced in the courtyard......

"Woo woo ......" couldn't hold back any longer, Xiao Muqing squatted on the ground, shrunk into a small ball, and cried aggrievedly.

The little hand kept wiping the tears on his face, and suddenly~

Inadvertently, teary eyes accidentally saw at his feet, where a silver thing lay quietly.
