"Gong Xunxi's disappearance, do you mean that she is dead or escaped?

A cold wind blew outside the open door. The tung oil lamp on the table crackled, and the soft light sprinkled on the body of the girl opposite, the person who wore a human skin mask and looked a little like him, did not have much expression, just because he had just cried, his eyes were as clear and translucent as crystal.

Wei Dongming rubbed his cold hands, because he had subconsciously regarded Shu Xiaoen as his own sister Wei Xiaoen, he was somewhat infected with sadness in his heart, and his voice was a little hoarse, "Escaped." ”

Shu Xiaoen seemed to understand something, and said softly: "Does it have anything to do with the Kneeling Fire Sect?"

"Here's what the intelligence has been gathered so far. Wei Dongming asked softly, "This time, do you want to go back to Haiyao City to take a sneak peek at Old Madam Fu's body?" After all, it was a relative, and the third prince asked him to ask Shu Xiaoen what he meant.

Shu Xiaoen hesitated for a moment, and refused weakly: "Forget it." ”

Wei Dongming didn't say much, said a few words of the scene, comforted her a few words, and left.

After Wei Dongming left, Yao'er entered the house and saw Shu Xiaoen lying on the coffee table, I don't know if she was asleep, Yao'er called softly, turned around and took a warm coat from the side and put it on her back.

Shu Xiaoen opened his eyes and did not move.

Yao'er sat aside, took out the unfinished needlework a few days ago, and sewed new patterns carefully with the soft light of the tung oil lamp......

In the second half of the night, Yao'er saw Shu Xiaoen move, and knew that she was not asleep, so she stepped forward and called softly, "Miss, don't sleep here, beware of catching a cold." ”

"It's okay. Shu Xiaoen said.

Yao'er was anxious, "How can it be okay?" After a trip from the priest, Shu Xiaoen looked listless, Yao'er couldn't wait for a response, so she persuaded softly, "It's better to go back to bed and lie down, okay?"

Shu Xiaoen didn't move, and after a long time, she slowly got up, Yao'er saw that her eyes were overflowing with tears, and two lines of tears were left along the corners of her eyes, coating the tears that had just dried with a layer of moisture.

Shu Xiaoen stood up and walked towards the bed step by step.

Lying down and covering the quilt, her heart seemed to drift farther away. The mother and daughter, after her soul penetrated to this Supo continent, gave her all the warmth, so that she would not starve in this Supo continent in the winter.

Now, all of them have left this world.

Shu Xiaoen opened her eyes and quietly watched Yao'er gently tuck the quilt for her, "You can also go and rest." ”

Yao'er shook her head, "I'm not sleepy." ”

During the day, it was another mother-in-law and maid who took care of Shu Xiaoen. Yao'er will take advantage of the time to be busy with needlework at night, and she can also earn some extra money.

"Miss, sleep. Yao'er said softly, "Your eyes are black, and if you don't sleep again, you will have to shout dizziness." ”

"Yes. Knowing Yao'er's kindness, Shu Xiaoen replied in a muffled voice, closed her eyes, but countless thoughts appeared in her mind. I couldn't sleep irritably, and when I opened my eyes again, the sky outside the window was still pitch black.

Shu Xiaoen got up and poured a cup of hot water to drink, and suddenly heard a slight knock on the door outside the house. Yao'er stood up and was startled when she saw Shu Xiaoen get up at some point, but she ignored the knock on the door outside.

"These days, there is always an inexplicable knock on the door. Yao'er explained, her brows furrowed, "But when I went to open the door, there was nothing." It's weird. ”

It was pitch black outside the house, and there was another layer of defensive enchantment covering, how could there be a knock on the door? Shu Xiaoen thought about it, walked over and lay down at the door to listen to the movement outside the house, and after a while, there was another knock on the door outside the house.

Yao'er also followed, Shu Xiaoen glanced back at her, and had the courage to open the door. This time it was different from the previous ones, and there was a chubby little white baby sitting outside the house.

Seeing Shu Xiaoen, the little baby showed a cute smile and a pair of eyes that were shining.

Yao'er was taken aback, "Where did this little ghost come from?" Seeing that the little baby was looking at Shu Xiaoen, she couldn't help but wonder, "Miss, do you know this little baby?"

Shu Xiaoen hesitated for a moment, lowered his voice and said, "He's a ghoul." ”

"Ahh

The scenes that took place in the Killing Village flashed through my mind. Shu Xiaoen lowered his eyes and looked at the little ghoul, and he didn't know how he came to the divination city with him - Shu Xiaoen looked back at Yao'er, after all, this little baby was called a ghoul, and it was hard to guarantee that he would not bite people's necks and drink blood.

"Did you come to me for something?" Shu Xiaoen asked.

The little baby grinned and nodded, but his bright eyes looked at Yao'er, stretched out his fat lotus root powder-like little hand, and motioned for Yao'er to hug him.

"Can you hug it?" Yao'er looked at Shu Xiaoen.

Shu Xiaoen found that the little baby didn't seem to dare to enter the house, and shook his head at Yao'er, "Don't hold him for the time being, wait until dawn tomorrow, and find a way to notify the eldest brother that they will come." ”

The little baby understood, pouting, and looked aggrieved.

Yao'er's heart softened, and she asked softly, "Do you want to let this little baby stay outside for a night? Will it freeze to death?" As Yao'er spoke, her eyes drifted to the little baby, only to see that he was wearing a small red robe, which looked thin and fragile in this snowy day.

"Hold a quilt for him and put it outside the house to sleep. Shu Xiaoen said.

Yao'er hesitated.

"Didn't you say that someone knocked on the door these days?" Shu Xiaoen persuaded, "What if it's this little ghoul knocking on the door?" Shu Xiaoen glanced at the little baby on the ground out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly appeared to look for her, Shu Xiaoen couldn't feel that something was wrong.

There is also a defensive barrier outside this house, how can it be so easy for a baby to break into? Not to mention that this divination city is not an ordinary place, how did a baby enter the divination city when he came alone?

Yao'er turned around and hugged a quilt. Shu Xiaoen took it from her arms, handed it outside the house, and said to the little baby: "You first hold this quilt, go to your usual resting place, and sleep for one night." Come back tomorrow morning, okay?"

The little baby blinked, smiled on his little face, picked up the quilt, and crawled away into the darkness. The wind-like speed made Yao'er on the side dumbfounded.

Shu Xiaoen saw that there was no strange place outside, and hurriedly closed the door of the house.

"What a ghoul is he?" Yao'er said in disbelief.
