Irritability, depression, and uneasiness filled Guo Zhaoyang's body, and it was about to tear him apart inch by inch. If Xiaobai had any accident, he would never forgive himself, he was wrong, he should have been on guard, or left, but he didn't do anything, even if this time the old witch didn't come because of himself, but why did he want others to protect him?

He followed those footprints and quickly walked towards the depths of the mantid, but the light became darker and darker, and the powerless despair became more and more unscrupulous, and it was impossible to be as lucky as last time when he entered this place again, he was not indifferent, but there was no way, what should he do now? After all these years, he is still as helpless as he was when he was a child.

"Xiaobai!" His cries spread far away, but they seemed to be shrouded in the shadows of the trees, silent and unanswered.

"Nope! I... Because of the suffocating air here, his thoughts suddenly flew back to a long time ago, natural and man-made disasters, gossip, helplessness, so that his face turned pale in an instant, the helplessness in his eyes was moving, how many nights, every time he was about to drown in the deep water, how much he wished that someone would come and hold his hand.

"Ah Yang!"

With a gentle call, he was suddenly dragged out of the suffocating past, his stiff body was pulled, his cold right hand was surrounded by warmth, and when he turned around, it was Xiaobai's anxious eyes, she was fine, fortunately she was fine.

"Why haven't you left yet!"

Guo Zhaoyang's heart beat violently, unlike that year, when he was still a child, when he didn't know what it meant to collapse, he heard Yu Ke's promise, and now he, in addition to the gratitude that came out, there was also an indescribable joy.

He opened his arms and hugged Xiaobai tightly, and kept reading: "Thank God! ”

Xiao Bai felt his trembling, patted his back gently, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, just heard him call himself, and saw him look frightened, Xiao Bai thought he had encountered those terrifying things. "I'm fine."

"What about the old witch? How could he let you go so easily? ”

"He... Xiaobai couldn't speak, but decided to hide it, "He just wants a little bit of golden pill honey and won't hurt me." ”

"What if he does? Did he really go back to the county king's mansion to make an errand? ”

Xiaobai nodded, whether it was Lao Wu or Bai Ku, anyway, there was always someone who went to Wen Qing, "Let's go back, by the way, I shouldn't know anything, right?" ”

Guo Zhaoyang smiled helplessly: "Even if I want to deceive, I can't deceive her, but I said that I will take you back, so let her go back to Huicheng first." ”

"It's over! She will definitely tell the old lady, if the old lady knows that I have been kidnapped, she will definitely call Master Lin or Young Master Lin to come to me! This is in trouble! ”

Guo Zhaoyang asked puzzledly: "You are half of the Lin family, they should also look for you, right?" ”

"But this is the Hidden Land!" Xiao Bai sighed, "Madam Lin will never let them take risks. ”

"You're worried that Lin Wenhai will definitely come, aren't you?"

Xiaobai smiled: "He's a good person." ”

Guo Zhaoyang was silent, he took Xiaobai's hand, and walked out side by side, these days, what he heard the most was the matter between the Lin family and Xiaobai, no matter how Xiaobai said all the good things about the Lin family, in his opinion, the family is the family, the back of unity and harmony, it is cold and decisive, if there is no exact relationship connected, no one can really integrate into it.

The second lady who was recognized halfway like Xiaobai, to put it bluntly, is just a superficial statement used to maintain feelings, if you really care about her, why don't you do it from the beginning? However, he feels that there are some similarities between him and Xiaobai, and he will always infinitely magnify those small touches to suppress those sadness.

"If you are too humble, too perfect, and over time, it will cause disgust, just like me..." Guo Zhaoyang's eyes flashed, "I'm always trapped in the feelings I want, and I cling too much and blindly catering, which makes them think I'm acting." ”

Xiaobai smiled and said: "But whether it is your true feelings or my courtesy, it is true, what the world thinks, we can't control it, don't feel annoyed, just do what you think in your heart, don't always be so depressed." ”

"It's better to cry at the beginning and tell my father that I don't need a new mother at all, so that he feels sorry for me, or thinks I'm naughty, than now he doesn't believe me and always avoids me."

"Then he ... Is it good for the second young master? ”

Guo Zhaoyang frowned and thought about it carefully, shook his head, and said in a brisk tone: "I don't know, since he was born, I've only met him once, not only him, don't look at my reputation, but I am not treated well in the county king's mansion, even my father is not often seen, but I think, it should be, actually... He's also a good guy. ”

Xiaobai sneered, I don't know what kind of mood he was in when he said such a relaxed word, his past was like blood gushing out and condensing, surrounding all his emotions, inexplicably making people feel unbearable. "Golden pill honey was discovered by accident in the land of Fu Yandi, and it was purely accidental, that day it rained, the princess of the county took the second young master to pass by to welcome the guests, and I asked for cough sugar water, so I cooked a pear with gold pill honey."

"I often hear him crying, if he can get better because of Kanimarumi, you are his savior."

Xiaobai was already convinced that Guo Zhaoyang was fine, and made such a joke, "What a life-saving benefactor!" If all the effort is a life-saving grace, then there are too many people who want to thank me for a thousand kindnesses. ”

"Why not?" Guo Zhaoyang smiled, "I have seen the girl who sold herself for five taels of silver to bury her father, and I have also seen the girl who took back the money from the thief to buy medicine, and the men and women who couldn't survive in the disaster and were taken in as slaves, how many of those good people with kind eyes are really good people?" They enjoy respect and admiration because of a little effort, why can't you? Just because you're low? ”

Xiaobai grimaced and smiled softly, such a depressing and dreary afternoon actually raised a pleasant atmosphere, "Of course not." ”

Guo Zhaoyang sighed and said: "I thought you would say yes, or regret to say, the identity of the second miss of the Lin family did not bring you any benefits, but made you more careful than before, if you really say so, I will give you a higher status, so that you can do what you want without scruples, and accept those gratitudes calmly, but you don't." ”

"I don't understand what you're saying." Xiaobai smiled vaguely, "It can't be because we saved you that time, right?" You have to figure it out, it's Young Master Yu who is looking for you, and it's the Eighth Master and Young Master Changyu who saved you, don't thank the wrong person. ”

"It's like you didn't do anything." Guo Zhaoyang was very helpless, he knew in his heart that because of a Chen Heng, Xiaobai had already refused to approach anyone.

After a long time, night fell, and when he looked up, he could already see the sparse starlight in the sky in the shadow of the trees, and when he was about to approach the edge of the earth, Xiaobai grabbed Guo Zhaoyang's hand and became alert, "I seem to have heard something." ”

"Yes, indeed." Guo Zhaoyang also heard it, and also confirmed that it was in the direction where the guests came.

Xiao Bai pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while, then raised his head and said, "It's Young Master Lin!" He seemed to be in danger. As he spoke, he rushed out.

Guo Zhaoyang hurriedly grabbed her and said, "I'm going to leave for a few days, so I won't go with you, you should be careful." ”

"You have to be careful! Promise me not to go to your father and the princess. ”

"I'm going to the Master."

Xiaobai nodded, turned around and ran out, and disappeared all of a sudden, Guo Zhaoyang's heart was cold, he had been missing for a few months inexplicably, but he was most worried that he was not his biological father, hey...

....

Lin Wenhai took Geely and seven or eight clever little guys to the land before dark, but they were all here for the first time, unfamiliar with the terrain first, plus the fear of here, several people panicked, not to mention looking for Xiaobai, they couldn't even figure out the direction, and if they didn't pay attention, Lin Wenhai fell into a hole.

Geely is about to go crazy, the surroundings are pitch black, with a few torches, nothing can be seen in the cave at all, he shouted for a long time and didn't hear Lin Wenhai respond, now he can't save people, he can't go back, a few people can only keep shouting his name, hoping that he can wake up soon.

"Auspicious! Young Master Lin! Xiaobai ran over and saw the little guys gathered together, and secretly screamed in his heart.

Geely still felt that he had heard it wrong, but when he saw Xiaobai standing in front of him alive, he knew that it was true, Xiaobai was fine, but the young master... He hugged Xiao Bai's arm with a sad face, "The young master has fallen!" I don't know how deep this hole is! What to do! ”

"Don't cry!" Xiao Bai shook off his hand, snatched a torch and stretched it out to the entrance of the cave, but he couldn't see it, the darkness of the night could swallow everything. "You all go!" She got up and said to the seven or eight little men, "There are vines in the trees, and one of them will cut two!" Be quick! ”

Seeing that no one moved, Geely was anxious, he kicked the person in front of him, and shouted: "What are you doing in a daze!" Didn't you hear what Miss Second said! ”

A few people scattered in a hurry, and when they were young, a thick vine of more than ten zhang was extended into the hole, and Geely climbed down with a person, who thought it was a deep hole, but in fact it was only two people high, and after a while, he saw Lin Wenhai being taken out, but he was already unconscious.

"What should I do?" Ji Li was at a loss, "The lord and the lady will definitely kill me!" ”

"Come back to Huicheng!" Xiaobai's brows tightened, Lin Dongyue and Lin Zhang's family didn't just want to blame Geely, they were afraid that they even had the heart to kill themselves, she was most afraid of this moment, she didn't want to, but she still became a crack that the Lin family couldn't repair.

....

Haixing, the county king's mansion

Wen Qing was anxious all day long, and asked someone to tell the old witch to catch Xiaobai to find the golden pill honey, but there was no response, Guo Zhaohui kept crying in the bedroom, his illness has been getting worse and worse recently, and she, the mother, has dried up her tears.

The nurse changed a cup of hot tea and said, "The king of the county is not here, I don't know where I was called, before leaving, I sent a few doctors, did the princess want them to come in and see the little master?" ”

"Not here again?" Wen Qing snorted coldly, I don't know when Guo Zhifeng's heart became colder and colder, he could not love Guo Zhaoyang, the eldest son, because of Chu Cailing's ignorance of current affairs, but he has always had a deep affection for himself, why didn't he love Guo Zhaohui anymore? "It's a doctor again, he's a father who doesn't come to see his son, what's the use of just sending a few doctors!"

"Useful! These doctors are all from Xiyue City, they are all the best in the middle, and their medical skills are excellent... ”

"If you can't save Xiaohui, what kind of medical skills can you talk about!" Wen Qing interrupted the nurse's words, "The old witch has no news yet?" The nurse shook her head.

"Princess!" Baiku walked in, holding a porcelain bottle and said, "This is a pill made of golden pill honey, quickly give it to the little master." ”

Wen Qing's face changed, she rushed to Bai Ku with a swift step, grabbed the porcelain vase and asked, "The old witch got the golden pill honey?" ”

Bai Ku shook his sleeves and said angrily: "If the princess doesn't listen to my persuasion and insists on sending someone to threaten the little white girl again, then I don't dare to guarantee that there will be no more golden pills to save the little master next time." ”

"What do you say! She dared not to give! ”

"Why wouldn't she dare?" Baiku asked, "Now the princess has a request for her!" ”

Wen Qing's face was tangled together, becoming hideous and terrifying, she didn't even pay attention to Chu Cailing, how could she be threatened by a little girl now? "I'm going to kill her!"

"That's the life of the little master!" Baiku shouted in a low voice, "I have a way to get the golden pill honey, as long as the princess promises me, don't trouble her again." ”

What is the rationale for this? It's time for her, the princess of the county, to be controlled by others, "That cheap girl dares to threaten this princess!" You still want this princess not to trouble her? From this moment on, you don't need to make these pills anymore! I have so many doctors from Xiyue City! Besides her, there are people who can save my children! Tell the old witch! Kill that! Kill her! ”

Bai Ku frowned and said, "No matter how good those doctors are, after so long, can there be a way?" ”

No, how could Wen Qing not know that Baiku's pill was the only way to save Guo Zhaohui, that was her only child, and she had put all her effort and love into a child who had a good future for him. "Hey, little master, take it." She had to compromise, she had no choice, everything seemed to be against her, it depended on her pain.
