Chapter 60: She's Important

Previous Chapter

Not long after Tong Wan left, Xi Xinghe also left the movie room.

Back in the guest room, when passing by Tong Wan's room, Xi Xinghe hesitated for a moment and still didn't knock on the door.

Why should he take the initiative. and do not owe her.

When I returned to the room, I opened the computer and approved a few documents one after another, and when I picked up the phone again, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening.

It really didn't seem interesting, so he sighed, pushed the door and walked out.

Walking to Tong Wan's door, he knocked on the door.

"Knock Knock"

No one answered.

"Tong Wan, open the door." Xi Xinghe felt that Tong Wan's emotional behavior was really inexplicable, if he had dumped Tong Wan for 108,000 miles according to his previous temperament, he would not have bothered to deal with her, but now he can't be cruel to her.

"Tong Wan, did you hear me?"

After a few more knocks, there was still no response.

Xi Xinghe was a little frustrated, he really had a hot face and stuck to someone's cold ass.

was depressed, and it happened that the old lady of the B&B went upstairs with a small bag of things.

"Mr. Xi hasn't rested yet." The old lady of the B&B still had a kind face, and when she saw Xi Xinghe, she stopped and smiled at him, "I brought you some ginger tea, and I made a bag before going to bed at night to ward off the cold." ”

"Oh." Xi Xinghe was stunned for a moment, although he didn't like the taste of ginger very much, he didn't want to refuse the old lady's kindness, and finally took the bag and said, "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome." The old lady smiled and tugged at the shawl on her shoulders, her lips pursed as if she had something to say.

"Well, do you have anything else?" Xi Xinghe saw that the old lady had no intention of leaving, so he took the initiative to ask.

"Oh, it's fine." The old lady narrowed her eyes and paused before she said slowly, "I just think it's normal for you young people to quarrel and make awkward noises, but don't hurt each other's hearts." ”

"What do you mean?" Xi Xinghe didn't quite understand the meaning of these words, frowned, and looked at the old lady with some puzzlement, "Mother-in-law, do you have anything to say." ”

The old lady sighed, "Actually, it's nothing, I just watched Miss Tong wandering around the garden alone, looking sullen, thinking if you guys quarreled and came to take a look." ”

It turned out that this was the case, and Xi Xinghe understood.

"You just said she was alone in the garden?"

"Yes, it's cold and dark on this big night, and it's pitiful." The old lady's face showed a distressed expression.

In the next second, Xi Xinghe almost didn't hesitate, and ran downstairs without thinking.

"Hey, slow down, watch the road." Looking at Xi Xinghe's fiery back, the old lady had to shake her head and sigh, she was really young.

went downstairs and looked around the garden but didn't see Tong Wan, because he ran too quickly, Xi Xinghe almost fell on the first-order stone slab.

Whew, he took a cool breath, and a layer of sweat was already on his forehead.

Where did this woman run away from herself?

Xi Xinghe slowly looked back and looked around, and unconsciously walked to the side of the snowman built during the day.

He didn't pay much attention, and was about to continue walking past the snowman, when suddenly a point of light caught his eye at his feet.

This is......

He crouched down and stared at the snowman's "nose", which was Tong Wan's pendant. It was from this pendant that the light just now came out.

Xi Xinghe took off the pendant and held it in the palm of his hand and looked at it again and again, suddenly, his eyebrows twisted, and a bad premonition kept coming to his heart.

Tong Wan has an accident!

He immediately put away the pendant, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and made several calls to Tong Wan in a row.

Sorry, the user you're calling isn't available for a while......

Now he was completely anxious, the pendant on his fingertips was pinched by him and would be broken almost at any time, this time he could be sure that Tong Wan was really taken away by that group.

Damn it! dared to snatch people under his nose, it seems that they really didn't take Xi Xinghe in his eyes!

……

Waterriver City.

Xi Xinghe was dressed as a river god, and he was discussing countermeasures with the high priest Wu Man in his secret pavilion at the moment.

"The previous guess was really correct, this group of people is obviously going for the Heavenly Star." Wu Man held a newly divined hexagram in his hand, and stood on one side with a solemn face.

"But Tong Wan, she's not ......," Xi Xinghe held his chin and was a little anxious.

"Lord Xinghe, look!" Suddenly, Wuman's expression changed, and he pointed to the hexagram and exclaimed, "Found it!" ”

"Huh?" Xi Xinghe stepped forward quickly, "Where is it?" ”

"Dark River."

When he heard the word dark river, Xi Xinghe's gaze was obviously cold.

It was a shadowy tribe abandoned by the Shuihe Clan, and most of the exiles there were heinous sinners of the Shuihe Clan. Legend has it that there is no sunlight all year round, coupled with the gathering of evil energy, after a long time, there are many extremely vicious beasts and monsters, plus its remote location, so the average Shuihe people will never set foot in half a step.

But why would they have Tong Wan's idea now?

Xi Xinghe didn't understand, but if all this was true, it meant that the people in Jingxi or even earlier in Dark River had already begun to take action, and at the beginning he mistakenly thought that they were targeting themselves, but now that he thinks about it, there should be only one person in their target from beginning to end, and that is Tong Wan.

Thinking of this, Xi Xinghe's originally chaotic mood slowly calmed down a little, since he found the door, he just went all out.

"Help me make a divination." Xi Xinghe picked up a cup of tea on the table and took a sip gently.

"Lord Xinghe......" Wu Man immediately understood what Xi Xinghe meant, and he raised his head and looked directly at him.

"How?" Xi Xinghe raised his eyebrows, "I don't even listen to you?" ”

"Minister, don't dare." Wu Man leaned over, "It's just that the dark river is extremely dangerous, if you ......"

"If you don't go on a trip, how do you know if it's really dangerous or tricky." Xi Xinghe put down the teacup, "Even if it's not for the Shuihe Clan, for my own sake, I'll go to the dark river." ”

Wu Man looked at Xi Xinghe, this is a rare moment in his memory when Xi Xinghe is so determined and calm, it is said that the maturity of people is a matter of an instant, probably the majestic and ruthless Xi Xinghe in front of the person in the past was just forced to grow up, but at this moment in front of him, he really let himself feel the fresh and powerful deterrent.

Wu Man nodded and slowly straightened up.

"The minister is willing to accompany Lord Xinghe to go with him." His tone was with the same firmness.

Xi Xinghe smiled faintly, "Have you thought about it?" ”

"I've figured it out." Wu Man nodded heavily.

Xi Xinghe glanced at him and didn't say anything, only inadvertently warmed up from the bottom of his heart.

That night, Xi Xinghe urgently summoned a group of personal deadpools, and after some rectification, he sent someone to summon Elder Changbai over.

"Lord Xinghe." Elder Changbai bowed down and clenched his fists, although he was a highly respected elder in Shuihe City, but he was particularly upheld in the way of monarchs and ministers.

"You don't have to do it." Xi Xinghe waved his hand, "Sit down." Deadpool moved a chair and placed it behind Elder Changbai.

"Old ...... The old minister didn't dare. Elder Changbai looked flattered.

"Sit down, don't ink." Xi Xinghe was really tired for him.

"Yes...... "Elder Changbai couldn't refuse again, and sat down as if he was doing it on a blade." Lord Xinghe, you called Lao Chen over, ......? ”

"It's an obituary paper." Xi Xinghe casually pinched up a few pages of a roll of ink on the desk that had not yet dried, and a Deadpool immediately stepped forward to take it and handed it to Elder Changbai.

"Obituary...... Wen ......" Elder Changbai spread out the pages in confusion, "If I don't return, I can raise someone from the clan to ......."

Poof.

The paper was scattered, and Elder Changbai fell to his knees tremblingly, "Lord Xinghe, don't, don't ......!" ”

Xi Xinghe sighed, and a glance passed over, and Elder Changbai immediately shut up aggrievedly.

"Lord Xinghe." Elder Changbai lamented several times in succession, "Why do you insist on being involved with that dark river? ”

"For one person." Xi Xinghe paused and said slowly.

"Is this person more important than the entire Water River Clan......?" Elder Changbai asked.

Xi Xinghe didn't speak, his lowered eyes flickered in the flickering candlelight, and after a while, he said a half-low, half-whispered "um".

"She." Xi Xinghe's throat rolled, "She is the one who sacrifices." He struggled to utter these words.

His heart twitched, was it because of this that he decided to go to her?

Elder Changbai's pair of faint eyes were almost completely black, and the amount of information that night was so great that his brain could barely fit in.

"You mean." Elder Changbai even began to tremble his beard, "That person is the ...... of the Supreme Yin Sacrifice!" ”

"......" Xi Xinghe was very impatient.

"O gods! The River Clan is saved! Elder Changbai spun around the ground a few times excitedly, almost fainting.

"Old minister...... The old minister ...... "Elder Changbai quickly calmed down, "Congratulations to Lord Xinghe!" ”

"......" Xi Xinghe rolled his eyes, did this old thing forget that he was going to die?

"Alright." Xi Xinghe stood up, "Keep this obituary, you can't lose it even if you die." ”

"Lord Xinghe......" Elder Changbai suddenly burst into tears, "You'll be fine, and the sacrifices will definitely be brought back!" ”

"Lend you good words." Xi Xinghe turned his back and waved his sleeves to retreat.

Elder Changbai picked up all the documents on the ground and carefully put them into his sleeves, bowed down and clasped his fists and bowed again and again, and then reluctantly retreated.

Wu Man behind him stepped forward, looked at Xi Xinghe's back, and asked lightly, "Why did you tell Elder Changbai about this?" ”

Xi Xinghe turned around and met Wu Man's eyes, "Because he is the only one in this group of ministers, I hope that the Shuihe clan will get better and better from the bottom of my heart." ”

"What if ......" Wu Man hesitated, "in case Xi Tianchi knows about this." ”

"That's better." Xi Xinghe's gaze suddenly sharpened, "I'm worried that I don't have a chance to get rid of him." ”
