The night was dark, and a cold wind was howling from the top of the mountain.

It seemed that only the cold wind was left between heaven and earth, and the breeze felt halfway up the mountain was gone.

She stood on the edge of the cliff, and only took a step forward, and what awaited her was an abyss, with no bones left. After Song Yige felt it for a moment, he looked away and looked at another place.

The torches with the scorching smell burned in an instant, illuminating the dark mountains as if it were daytime.

Song Yige looked down from the top of the mountain, and the torches circling up from the foot of the mountain were like a long dragon, which had its own life in an instant.

Before I left, I took a cloak from Midorizu, which came in handy now.

He stepped forward and shook off the cloak that was a little warm in his hand and draped it on Song Yige's body: "The mountains are cold, the girl is still careful about her body, don't want the Hou Ye to find it yet, but the girl fell first." ”

Song Yige replied in a low voice, now that the mountains are indeed windy, she didn't stand for a while, she felt that her throat was blown by the wind and she couldn't speak, and the wind poured viciously down her sandalwood mouth and into the depths of her throat.

The wind was like a knife, slashing at her throat.

At this moment, it is already the middle of the night.

The moon on the horizon also hid behind the layers of clouds, and the fine rain followed the direction of the wind, eagerly falling down.

Xie Jingzhong held up a green bamboo umbrella to cover her from the rain that was slanting above her head, and the rain came in a hurry, and it didn't take long to wet half of Xie Jingzhong's shoulder.

The clothes were wet and sticking to the body, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Xie Jingzhong moved uncomfortably, but at this moment, a delicate little hand took the umbrella from his hand: "I'll hold it." ”

Xie Jingzhong turned his face and looked down at her cold eyebrows, paused, and didn't say anything after all.

It wasn't until the sky was slightly green that the fine and dense rain finally had a tendency to stop.

He looked down and saw that Song Yige's skirt was already wet.

The sky is shining from the clouds, the morning glow is all over the sky, and the whole mountain top is beautiful at sunrise, but no one has the heart to appreciate it.

They also stood hard all night.

Not to mention that Song Yige couldn't stand such a delicate woman, even Xie Jingzhong felt that his feet were a little painful to stand on, not to mention that the wind on the top of the mountain was far colder than the foot of the mountain, and now in addition to his stiff body, even his hands and feet began to get cold.

It was so cold that even if he wanted to curl his fingers, it would be more than ten times harder than usual.

He sighed and looked at the little girl beside him: "In the future, you can leave these things to Yeyi, you still don't have to be so stubborn." ”

"If you get frostbite, it's more than worth the loss." Xie Jingzhong persuaded.

Although he has been walking away on the rivers and lakes over the years, he has never asked about the temple, but he still knows some people and what the back house looks like.

If she really got frostbitten because of this, how would she survive if she didn't have someone to rely on when she got married in the future.

Xu was in the daylight, and the cold wind was much lighter, Song Yige opened his mouth: "This is not a big deal, the night has passed, and there is not even half a clue?" Brother Xie, could it be that we were going in the wrong direction from the beginning? ”

When Xie Jingzhong heard this, he immediately condensed his eyebrows: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"I don't think we should be so conformist and just stay in such a square place, my brother disappeared here, yes, but if he went somewhere else? Or maybe someone saved him? Will he still be here? Song Yige said lightly.

Xie Jingzhong thought for a while, and then understood what Song Yige meant, and he walked towards the night: "Give me the map." ”

Yeyi hurriedly pulled out the map and unfolded it on the ground, the ground was not flat, undulating and undulating, Xie Jingzhong didn't care, he squatted down directly in front of the map, and picked up a few stones from the side, and after pressing the four corners of the map, there were remaining stones on the map to enclose the position of the mountain.

The whole person fell into deep thought.

Song Yige looked at Ye San: "Ye San, you come here." ”

"Girl." Yesan clenched his fists and looked respectful.

Song Yige's eyes drifted into the distance in a trance at this moment: "Where are you going to find the eldest girl of Ling Mansion, Ling Yue?" I'm going to see her today. ”

"Within today?" Yesan didn't quite understand why his own girl suddenly wanted to see such an insignificant person, but he was by such a nature that even if he doubted, he would not disobey his master's orders.

Song Yige nodded firmly: "Before sunset." ”

Now at such a critical juncture, she wants to take the time to see Ling Yue, naturally she has her reasons.

After all, there are too many strange people and strange things in this world, and she can borrow corpses to resurrect her soul, so why can't Ling Yue predict the future? Song Yige gritted his teeth tightly and looked at the sky with a glimmer of light.

It cascades down like a waterfall.

Descending to earth.

Huaiyang Houfu.

The sky is slightly bright, and the roosters are crowing.

Song Hengbo woke up from the cold ancestral hall, although her maid took off her clothes to her, she was still shivering with cold.

She wrapped her hands around her body and leaned against the fan.

In front of her was a row of futons, incense burners and tablets, lingering in a quiet and eerie atmosphere, she glanced lightly, then looked away, turned to the maid curled up in the corner in a single dress, Xu was cold, the little face has lost its usual ruddy, and even her lips began to turn purple.

With a blank face, she picked up the clothes that were spread on the ground, wrapped them around herself again, and waited for the old lady to come and take her out.

Song Hengbo continued to close her eyes, and before she closed it for a while, there was a dull sound of the door outside, followed by a row of footsteps, her eyes widened excitedly, and she didn't care about her untidy appearance, so she pushed the door out directly.

The courtyard was full of maids, but none of them she knew, or didn't know them well.

Song Hengbo stood in the threshold in disbelief and looked at the people standing in the courtyard: "You are ......"

The first beautiful maid is graceful and blessed: "The slave maid is in the courtyard of the seven girls, and on the order of the seven girls, take the four girls to the old lady to ask for help." ”

Hearing her answer, the ripples in Song Hengbo's heart calmed down a little.

She said, "Change my clothes." ”

Eifukudo.

Last night, the old lady did not rest, but sat by the window all night, according to the usual, if you sit for so long, you must feel uncomfortable, but now she is unusually very energetic, and even the usual chaotic brain is rare to have a little soberness.

She held the Buddha beads and covered her heart, and she also knew in her heart that this was probably a return to the light before her limit.

The mother-in-law, who had always served her, rolled up the curtains, and walked to the side of Mrs. Song with breakfast, and her eyes were rarely a little moist: "The old lady has eaten." ”

As she spoke, she placed the jade chopsticks in her hand.

Old Madam Song didn't pick up the jade chopstick, but chose a spoon, she scooped up the already warm white porridge, and asked with a smile: "Xiyun, do you remember how long you have been with me?" ”

The mother-in-law smiled and touched the tears in the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand: "I remember that when the slave maid entered the house at the age of three, she followed the old lady to serve, and it has been more than sixty years now. ”

"That's not too short." Old Madam Song sighed and took her hand, "In a person's life, there are a few more sixty years. ”

"Let's not talk about this, I'll ask you something, you have to answer me sincerely, otherwise even if I leave, I will be unwilling." In front of her, Mrs. Song didn't have so much cover-up.

Is it the person who has served in front of her all her life, what is her current physical condition, and where can she hide it?

The mother-in-law nodded: "Girl, please speak." ”

She changed her name when she was young, and Mrs. Song listened to it, and did not correct it, but responded with a smile, and there was a little more gentleness in her eyes, probably remembering the past when she was young.

Jinling at that time, Lin'an at that time, and her at that time.

Everything is as if it were first seen.

Old Madam Song stirred the white porridge in front of her with the spoon in her hand, and this question seemed to be asked after she thought about it for a long time: "Am I too much to Ge'er during this time?" ”

This question is also expected by the mother-in-law, she lowered her head and smiled, but more helplessly: "Girl, please forgive the slave maid for saying more, the seventh girl has a very good heart, will be in charge of the family and advance and retreat to a degree, I don't know how much better than the fourth girl, and in the treatment of the next person, they are even more incomparable, the fourth girl is a white-eyed wolf, she will not take care of others at all, only take care of herself, otherwise she will not be able to rob her sister-in-law, just yesterday, the seventh girl put the fourth girl in the ancestral shrine, The seventh girl also sent a maid in to take care of her, not to mention taking into account the relationship between the master and servant in the past, it was also a living life! ”

"The ancestral shrine is cold, the four girls can't stand it, the maid thinks about the master's body, and it is reasonable to take off her clothes to the master, but the four girls shouldn't have been, when they were picked up this morning, they ordered someone to throw the girl directly into the well!"

"That girl froze in the ancestral shrine all night, not to mention living, the whole body was injured, the four girls were good, and they killed people directly, if the Hou Mansion followed such a master in the future, the slave and maid were really scared."

When Mrs. Song heard this, she didn't say anything, she just patted her hand to comfort her, and said after a while: "I know this in my heart, although I have spoiled the fourth sister these days, she shouldn't be involved in the Hou Mansion anyway." ”

As soon as the words landed, an extremely aggrieved voice came from outside: "Grandmother, grandmother, please also ask grandmother to make decisions for Hengbo." ”

Then, a graceful figure rushed in from behind the screen, and pounced straight on Mrs. Song's lap, a beautiful little face was full of tears, and she cried so much that her voice was a little hoarse: "Please also ask grandmother to be the master of Hengbo!" ”

"Hengbo is also a girl in the house, the fourth sister of the seventh sister, but why did she lock me up in the ancestral shrine and detain me overnight, if it weren't for the grandson's life, I was afraid that I would be frozen to death in the ancestral shrine!"

"Grandmother, the seventh sister is so indistinguishable from inferiority and inferiority, I don't know how young and old are orderly, how can such a person be in charge of the affairs of the house! The grandson is not convinced! ”

But Mrs. Song didn't seem to see her tears this time, she smiled and raised Song Hengbo's head, her eyebrows were as kind as ever: "Fourth sister, you are now seventeen, and you are a big girl." ”

Song Hengbo was stunned by Mrs. Song's attitude, she was not a fool, she could be so arrogant in the house, it was just because her grandmother loved her, if she lost her grandmother to rely on her, she didn't even dare to think about how she would live her life in the future?

"Grandmother." She looked up and muttered with teary eyes.
