At dusk, the smoke rises from every house, the hustle and bustle of the day temporarily falls silent, occasionally the rooster crows, the dog barks, they move the table out of the door, the coarse tea and light rice on the sun and the mountains, so comfortable that it seems to blend into a picture of the quiet years.

Clan Hall –

Because there was no cell in Xijia Village, Xi Huanyan was locked to the pillar in the lobby, with her hands handcuffed at one end and the pillar at the other, and two villagers on duty next to her.

The throbbing pain in the heart turned into a dense erosion pain, and the pain was lower than the initial one, but it was endless.

Xi Huanyan sat on the tree, seemingly closing his eyes and recuperating, but in fact he was trying his best to endure the pain.

"It's a shift change, so let's go eat. ”

The familiar voice made her open her eyes, and it was Xi Qiongdong and Xi Cangsheng who came.

"I have a grudge against them, and I suspect that they will take the opportunity to murder me. ”

Xi Qiongdong bared his teeth, "What do you think, everything is your imagination, we have no grudge or grudge against you, why don't you want to think about it, I am your father's apprentice, no matter how bastard I am, I can't do anything to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors." ”

The two people who were originally on duty thought about it, and comforted Xi Huanyan and said, "If you really encounter a problem, you can scream, and there are clan elders in the first few rooms." ”

Xi Qiongdong waved his hand to drive people away, "You guys go quickly, we are here." ”

Xi Qiongdong and Xi Cangsheng were either standing at the door, or sitting cross-legged around her, but nothing happened.

When it was completely dark, Xi Qiongdong suddenly said, "If you don't have enough to eat in the evening, let's have an extra meal." ”

"Where are you going to get food at this time?"

"I have game at home, wait, I'll get it. Xi Qiongdong left empty-handed, and when he came back, he had an extra pot in his hand and a skinned dog.

Xi Cangsheng pretended to ask, "Where did you get it?"

"Wild dogs in the mountains. His hidden malicious gaze fell on Xi Huanyan with a grin, "The taste of dog meat is the most fragrant, stew until it is crispy, break the bones and eat meat, life is happy." ”

But Xi Huanyan didn't open his eyes and fell asleep.

Xi Qiongdong took a sip in his heart and beckoned Xi Cangsheng to set up a fire in the small courtyard under the hall.

The water is put into the pot, the fire is boiling, the meat chopped into large pieces is put away, the spices are sprinkled, and the stew lasts for an hour, the fragrance is overflowing, and even the two clan elders inside are hooked out.

"Come on, come on, take a bowl, there's enough meat, eat as much as you like!"

"It's so fragrant, I'll go get a jug of wine. ”

"Alcohol doesn't work, wine doesn't work. ”

"Fruit wine, drunk can't get people, it's not in the way. ”

"If you eat meat and don't drink alcohol, you won't eat it for nothing. ”

Xi Qiongdong and Xi Cangsheng sang and drank, acting lively, and they were happy with their hearts.

"Alright, alright. The clan elder Xi told the cow, "Don't drink it today, the tea will be ready." ”

The two of them gave up and excitedly gathered around the pot to eat meat.

Xi Huanyan felt that a person squatted down beside him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Xi Xuyun sitting in the hall in place of Xi Xuxun tonight.

Xi Xuyun glanced at the small courtyard and asked in a low voice, "Do you have any other evidence?"

"......," Xi Huanyan said, "The map of the house protection on the hunter's roof beam has been crossed out. ”

"Huh?" Xi Xuyun didn't understand.

"That's my father's source technique, he probably didn't tell anyone, only those who practiced or read his codex, or accidentally discovered it, knew that killing people in the village would be haunted by this source technique. ”

Xi Xuyun scolded in a low voice, "Crazy." ”

"So you think the person who crossed out the map of the hunter's roof is the murderer?"

"When Xi Qiongdong chased me today, he pointed out that I was attacked by the Mansion Protector, which is enough to prove that he knew the role of the Mansion Protector. ”

"But this is not direct evidence, can you prove that he is the only one in the village who knows what it does, can you prove that he is the one who drew it?"

Xi Huanyan couldn't answer.

Xi Xuyun patted her hand comfortingly, "Tomorrow they may confirm your murder of Xi Canglie, don't do it, I will try to keep you from dying, and the rest depends on the will of God." ”

"Xue Yun come and eat meat!" Xi Xue Niu turned his head and called out to her.

"I'm not hungry. Xi Xuyun waved his hand back to the back room.

Xi Qiongdong saw what Xi Xuyun and Xi Huanyan said, he thought about it, he and the others did not fall into a practical handle, and the fire could not burn his body, so he became more and more unscrupulous in his heart.

He smiled and walked into the lobby with a bowl of meat, and put it in front of Huanyan, "Don't say that I don't remember the previous friendship, I'll give it to you." ”

"Get out. Xi Huanyan said coldly, "One step later, I will break your neck with a chain." ”

Xi Qiongdong subconsciously took a step back, thinking that her hands were handcuffed, and there was a picture of the house on the beam, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she snorted coldly and walked out.

When Xi Xuniu saw this scene, he scolded in his heart, and hurriedly lowered his head to eat meat, this kid is afraid that he can't fight the patriarch, so he should not be nosy.

But when Xi Qiongdong was about to walk to the pot, Xi Huanyan's eyes gradually became cold, and he suddenly broke the thumbs of both hands and misplaced them, and the dislocation of the bones made the hands shrink, she quickly broke free of the shackles, rushed forward, grabbed Xi Qiongdong's head and overturned the dog meat pot, and pressed it into the pyre burning with the dark fire.

Xi Xuniu and Xi Cangsheng were shocked and dropped the bowl, looking panicked, wanting to pull her away, how could Xi Huanyan let them succeed, picked up the iron pot and turned around, scared them away, and immediately rushed out of the clan hall and jumped into the dark village.

"Oh no, Xi Huanyan escaped!"

"Oh no, Xi Huanyan escaped!"

The sound of gongs and drums woke up the sleeping mountain village, and a large group of people gathered in the clan hall.

In the midst of the noise, Xi told Niu Dao, "Cangsheng has already taken three people to chase her, and the top priority is to rescue Qiongdong!"

Xi Xushui hurriedly looked at the unrecognizable Xi Qiongdong, was furious, and shouted at the people around him, "I have been working hard for most of my life, and you can also see it, now our ancestors and grandchildren have awakened the origin of the soul, and the benefits to the village will be more, I don't want to ruin the relationship between us because of this kind of nonsense, and she deceives people too much, I must not let her die well!"

Xi Cangping agreed, "She is so vicious at a young age, she can't be left behind!"

Shou Xun coughed one after another, he swept away the clan elders present, and smiled bitterly in his heart, is there anyone in this village who can stop him, the only martial artist Xi Cangping has spoken for him!

"Don't worry about the rest, I want you to bring Huan Yan to my eyes, bring it to my eyes well!" Xi Xuxun slapped the table twice, "Even if she is wrong, she has to be judged in this clan!"

"Sue Yun, you take someone to find it. ”

"Yes, father. ”

Xi Xushui knew that he was afraid that he would kill Xi Huanyan, and he couldn't help but be angry, so Xi Xuyun followed first, and then found a way to separate.

The group of villagers scattered to look for her traces, and this Fang Xi Huanyan was lost in the mountains, and the thin mist seemed to disturb her sense of direction, so that she could not find the way up the mountain.

She took out the fire fold hidden in her shoe, tore a piece of her garment, wrapped it around a long thick branch, and made a simple torch to make it easier to tell the way.

It's just that every time I think I'm doing the right thing, the result is wrong.

The cold sweat on his forehead kept falling, and his heart became more and more like a knife.

The shadows of the trees are swaying, the dark moon is dark, the future is dim, the road behind is boundless, a little firelight, faint as fireflies, swaying will be extinguished.

People pass over trees, wind passes through leaves, and rattles.

"There's someone over there!"

Xi Huanyan's heart tightened, threw away the torch, and ran wildly into the forest alone.

"She found out, chase!"

The extinguished torch stepped on four pairs of feet, and black shadows flashed through the forest, and the grass and trees were stumbling, like insects crawling, like snakes, gradually like pigs running, and fierce like bears.

The distance is getting closer!
