Xiuyue took out the peach wood dagger from her arms, and then slowly stretched the dagger towards Lan Wan's wrist and swiped it quickly.

It was obviously a wooden dagger, but it was very sharp, and in just a moment, it had already cut Lan Wan's wrist on the ground, and a stream of black blood slowly flowed out, like some kind of animal, winding on the ground, trying to escape.

Xiu Yue made a movement, and the dagger stabbed the bloodstain, and the bloodstain contracted at a speed visible to the naked eye.

With a sneer, the other hand quickly took out a blank rune paper from his side, the rune paper was the same as the one that sealed the little boy last time, except for some patterns on the edge of the rune paper, everything else was blank.

The rune paper slowly fell to the ground, and the blood stains on the ground were slowly absorbed by the rune paper, gradually forming a black centipede on the paper.

The centipede was lifelike, each leg clearly visible, and it was hideous with its hard shell.

Maybe all this is too magical, although Rong Zhaoqing Xiuyue usually has some special powers, but Rong Yao is still the first time to see this.

She quietly popped up from behind her and asked, "Xiuyue, are these all your abilities?" ”

Xiu Yue put away the rune paper and nodded.

Lan Wan on the ground was still unconscious, as if she didn't know anything. And because of the power that was just allowed, there was no maid there for a long time.

Lan Wan's wrist was no longer bleeding, and Xiu Yue went out to find two maids at random, and asked them to take Lan Wan back to her own room to rest. After doing all this, I went back to the house.

The food on the table had been changed, and Rong Yao and Rong Yao were eating on the side, and when they saw Xiu Yue coming in, Rong Yao greeted them warmly.

Although Xiu Yue was a little hungry, she was still in no mood, looking at Rong Zhao, who was still full of coldness on the side, and said softly: "What the hell is going on?" ”

Rong Zhao put down the chopsticks, and the anger in his eyes was still visible, "Yao'er was about to eat, but I didn't expect that Lan Wan to suddenly reach out and want to pinch Yao'er's neck." ”

"Lan Wan is the maid I brought from the capital, she will definitely not harm me." Rong Yao hesitated.

Hearing this, Rong Zhao's face softened a little and said, "You eat first, and then let's talk about this matter." ”

Xiu Yue looked at Rong Zhao's gloomy expression, and her mood began to deepen.

"Lan Wan just now should have been evil, but now it's fine, just pay attention to these things in the future, Master Xiao's hand can't reach here."

Xiu Yue said as she thought of Mei Duo again, and her brows couldn't help but furrow deeper.

After eating, the three of them chatted for a while, Rong Zhao repeatedly told Rong Yao not to move around at will, and arranged for a few people to take care of her, and then walked out with Xiuyue with confidence.

"I have a clue about Meiduo, it should be Qiaomei." Xiuyue said as she walked, "I went to Xiyuan today to ask Mei Duo for an explanation, but she refused to tell me. ”

Considering that today's matter is a bit sinister, and there is no definite evidence, Xiuyue hesitated, still did not tell him.

"It's okay, I'll investigate it first." Glancing at Xiu Yue comfortingly, Rong Zhao put the sword behind his back and gently patted her head with his free hand.

Xiu Yue was defenseless, was patted, then shook her hand away, and said, "What are you doing?" ”

Rong Zhao smiled, deliberately raised his head without looking at Xiu Yue, and said, "It's okay, see that you are doing well today, I will give you a little reward." ”

Reward, pat yourself is a reward? Xiu Yue couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"What did you study in the soil you brought back last time?" Rong Zhao asked suddenly.

Thinking of the soil, Xiu Yue couldn't help but think of the little boy's sad eyes, and frowned: "There is a yin soul inside, so that firelight should be a soul fire." ”

"Soul fire?" Hearing this word for the first time, Rong Zhao couldn't help but ask.

Xiu Yue smiled: "It's normal that you don't know, these things are not what you usually know." I'll tell you a little bit about that soil first. ”

Xiu Yue briefly told Rong Zhao something about the dirt, and after listening, Rong Zhao looked at Xiu Yue with admiration and said, "Xiu Yue, I didn't expect you to be so bold?" ”

Although it was praised, the whole praise was not a good compliment. Xiu Yue snorted coldly and did not respond.

"This ghost fire is the fire of the undead, these fires are a kind of power that the soul can't bear to bear, and when it touches the person he wants to kill, it will naturally burst out, and that power seems to be fire, but it's not. This is where the ghost fire comes from. ”

After explaining this, Xiu Yue raised her head and looked at Rong Zhao with a serious face, and said, "Then the earth mountain, nearly the size of a house, if it is all these ghost fires, then, could it be that many people have died here?" ”

Rong Zhao was silent in contemplation.

Since all this came out of Xiuyue's mouth, it was credible, but all of this was too surprising, Rong Zhao had also investigated some of the contents of the Sleepless Mountain before, but there was no relevant news at all.

Rong Zhao's eyebrows were cold, it seems that he has not been very strict recently, and his subordinates have also relaxed.

Walking and walking, before they knew it, the two had already walked to the door of Rong Mansion, and Xiu Yue was surprised to realize that she had come here with Rong Zhao, and couldn't help asking, "Why did you come here?" ”

Rong Zhao took out the token, and the guard at the door immediately got out of the way.

"You've been going out lately, and I'm interested in what you're doing outside, so I'll go out with you today and go around."

Although Xiuyue wanted to refuse, she still nodded and walked out with Rong Zhao.

Although the scenery is good and the crowds are surging, Xiuyue is not in the mood to enjoy the scenery at all, she has just been framed by Mei Duo today, and she only wants to know how to know Mei Duo's identity and what happened that day.

"Tolerance?" Xiu Yue suddenly raised her head and asked.

Rong Zhao lowered his head and looked at Xiu Yue, "Huh? ”

"Can you help me check Qiaomei's whereabouts that night?"

Rong Zhao smiled and said, "Is this just for this?" ”

Xiuyue nodded.

Rong Zhao laughed and didn't give her an answer, but she could already feel that Rong Zhao's mood around her had changed for the better in an instant.

To the north of the city that never sleeps is the mountain that never sleeps, and the city is built on the mountain.

The annex of the Rong Mansion is under the Sleepless Mountain, that is, the north of the entire Sleepless City. The city that never sleeps is not big, but the financial resources are extremely strong, although the city that never sleeps is a marginal city in the Xuanyuan country, but because of this, all the trade with the neighboring country of Beichen is carried out in the city that never sleeps, because of this, the name of the city that never sleeps can be cast, and because of this, the rumors about the mountain that never sleeps, some people believe it more.

The two walked casually on the road, and chatted casually, it seemed that because the topic of conversation between the two was very serious, it was the first time that the two of them chatted so aimlessly and casually, and this kind of conversation made Xiuyue understand Rong Zhao's knowledge better.

A man, what makes a woman's heart move, is always his character.

seemed to know that Xiuyue liked to eat osmanthus cake very much, and the two walked and walked, and Rong Zhao took Xiuyue to the osmanthus cake.

Rong Zhao's temperament is cold and extraordinary, and although Xiu Yue on the side is wearing maid clothes, she is still neither humble nor arrogant, and the appearance of the two makes the osmanthus cake stall owner on the side can't help but tremble.

The stall owner looked at Xiu Yue twice more and said in surprise: "Girl, it's you again." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Rong Zhao on the side twice, and he was also extraordinary, compared with Yu Wensheng that day, the two were evenly divided.

The stall owner couldn't help but look at Xiu Yue, at a young age, this girl's appearance is not very outstanding, I didn't expect it to be so popular, look at this son, he must be a generous one.

"This son, do you still want it all today?"

The last sentence of this stall owner was said to Rong Zhao, but the second half of the sentence was said to Xiuyue.

"Or?" Rong Zhao slowly turned his head to look at Xiu Yue who looked innocent next to him.

It seemed that he was puzzled, and the stall owner smiled: "You don't know this son, this young lady brought a son over that day, and her bearing was extraordinary, and she bought all the osmanthus cakes as soon as she came up." ”

Extraordinary? Bought them all?

Rong Zhao felt that his majesty had been provoked, took out the purse on his side, slapped it on the stall owner's stall, and said coldly: "I want it all too." ”

Therefore, in the end, Xiuyue was holding a full five bags of pastries alone, walking all the way on the road, feeling the curious eyes of the people around her and the increasingly cold breath around her, Xiuyue was really distressed.

"That son, is that son?" Rong Zhao stopped and turned his head to look at Xiuyue.

Xiu Yue smiled awkwardly, she felt that if she said Yu Wensheng's words, she would only be worse than now, "I saved a man that day, and he repaid me for ......"

"So he saved you when you were injured that day?"

Xiuyue nodded.

In an instant, Xiu Yue only felt that a strong wind suddenly passed in front of her, and when she looked back, there was still a calling figure on her side, only the empty side remained, and the unknown eyes of the passers-by around her.

Xiu Yue sighed silently, and had to walk back slowly with the pastry. Along the way, he begged himself not to meet Yu Wensheng, otherwise it would be even more difficult to explain, as if God heard his heart, and he didn't encounter any situation, so Xiu Yue walked back to Rong Mansion safely.

Although Chunliu was full of doubts about the osmanthus cake that suddenly appeared again, but since it was brought back by Xiuyue, she didn't ask more, and the master and servant ate happily again, and chatted casually for a while, just like that, the day passed slowly, and the night began to fall.

Sleepless Mountain.

Director Xiao sneered and touched his injured arm, looked at an invisible formation in front of him, and suddenly laughed, "Good formation, it makes me unguardable." ”

No, blood had begun to slowly ooze from his arm, a deep cut was slowly tearing on his big arm, and the entire clothing on his left arm had been shattered.

Director Xiao gritted his teeth and tore his clothes, then bandaged his arm, and then took out a string of small bells, and with a light movement of his fingers, the bells began to shake in the wind.

The strange thing is not that the bell, but that even though the range of Xiao Chief's movements is getting bigger and bigger, there is no sound from the bell, and there is only the sound of the wind around him.
