The news that Shu Xiaoen and his party left the Divination City was soon known by the people who were watching them closely. When Shu Xiaoen and his party went to Cause and Effect City, Mu Ou from Shanhai City also set off.

The sky in Cause and Effect City was gloomy, and there was a strong storm coming.

Saiyang drove the carriage, the wheels gurgling and rolling on the street, and drove into the lively streets and alleys of Cause and Effect City. I found a few inns, and then I lived in a slightly clean Youlai Inn.

It was raining heavily.

The icy raindrops fell to the ground, the rattling sound, the wind swept the bean-sized raindrops densely attacked, and the pedestrians on the street who could not avoid screamed and hid under the eaves.

Yao'er hugged Bo An and leaned against the window, her face gloomy. Since the last unintentional questioning, Saiyang had never looked at her squarely, which hit Yao'er's fragile heart.

For several days, her face was depressed, and even Bo An asked her to tell a story, as long as she accidentally caught a glimpse of the figure of Saiyang walking past, she would look absent-minded, and in the end she even forgot to speak.

There were two crisp knocks on the door.

It was the previously agreed code, Yao'er was stunned for a moment, walked over and opened the door, and there was a slightly wet robe standing outside, he glanced at Yao'er, bypassed her and entered the house with an expressionless face, his boots stepped on the floor, leaving a wet footprint at every step.

Yao'er lowered her head and closed the door, like a child who had made a mistake, standing far away from the sacrifice of the sun.

Bo An crawled to Yao'er's feet and smiled at her with a warm and soothing smile. Yao'er sighed, bent down to pick up the little baby, and raised her head just in time to see Saiyang looking back at her, her cheeks couldn't help but redden, and she lowered her head nervously.

After a long time, Saiyang suddenly said loudly: "This city smells of ghouls. ”

Ghouls?Shu Xiaoen couldn't help but be stunned.

Could it be that the ghouls were secretly raised like the Forbidden Ground? Or did the ghouls like An Caizhan and them come and go freely among the civilians, just so that the sacrifice Yang found out? Shu Xiaoen looked at him fixedly.

Saiyang snorted coldly and did not answer.

Yao'er raised her head, cautiously watched as Saiyang walked to the window, opened the closed wooden window, and stared at the street outside that was raining heavily, her face was shrouded in a layer of haze, which was not real, but it made people's hearts beat suddenly.

Saiyang frowned.

Yao'er's heart tightened, but she found that the other party didn't seem to notice her heartbeat. Thinking of what the young lady had said earlier, the ghouls' senses were different from those of ordinary people, and she was afraid that the embarrassment at this time would enter his ears.

OK......

Yao'er felt inexplicably lost.

Bo An looked up at her thoughtfully, with a pair of black and white eyes.

Saiyang said: "It is likely that he was imprisoned. ”

What happened in the forbidden place of the grave, he later heard others mention it in the Holy City, and when he knew that Shu Xiaoen had been involved, and the only survivor of that incident was also her, Saiyang was surprised.

Later, from Wei Dongming's mouth, he accidentally learned about Shu Xiaoen's bond with the ruler of Wuye Island. The soul contract, and it is also thanks to the fact that the master of the jobless island is willing to find an ordinary person to conclude this kind of life and death contract, which is really a fateful thing.

Saiyang turned his head and suddenly wanted to see Shu Xiaoen's expression. But she didn't have too many emotional waves on her face, or maybe because she was still wearing a human skin mask with Wei Xiaoen's identity on her face, so she couldn't see her expression.

His eyes fell on hers, a pair of calm and clear eyes. When Saiyang looked at Shu Xiaoen, the latter raised his eyelids to meet his inquiring gaze, and Shu Xiaoen heard his own voice sound.

"If it's inconsequential, then let's leave it alone. Shu Xiaoen said, "So as not to cause unnecessary trouble." ”

Saiyang was silent for a moment, nodded in agreement, and said with emotion: "The people of the Supo Continent think that ghouls are monsters. But what about them? What about them? What can they do in order to achieve immortality? ”

As he spoke, he remembered the years when he had been a left divine envoy. At that time, he believed in the god of water, a god of beauty and mesmerization. A hundred years have passed, and when he closes his eyes, he can still remember the demeanor of the water god dancing the witch dance and praying for blessings, smiling, turning and jumping one by one, and chanting incantations with his lips open......

"I heard that the people of Karma City are fond of witchcraft, and sometimes they do not hesitate to risk poisoning strangers from outside to refine evil things. Don't run around. After saying what he wanted to say, he glanced at Shu Xiaoen, then at Yao'er and Bo An with a warning, opened the door and walked out.

Yao'er closed the door and looked back at Shu Xiaoen.

"Miss, doesn't he hate me?" Yao'er walked to Shu Xiaoen's side, and asked softly until she couldn't hear the footsteps outside. The voice was as thin as a gnat, Shu Xiaoen leaned on the head of the bed and closed his eyes to recuperate, but he didn't hear clearly for a while, and only after opening his eyes did he realize that he remembered.

Seeing Yao'er's eyes dimmed a little.

Shu Xiaoen thought that when he first saw Xiyang in the Ghoul City, he had this kind of eccentric character.

"Probably not. Shu Xiaoen smiled and comforted her, "How can you think that he hates you? Thinking of the years spent together in the Holy City, Shu Xiaoen couldn't help but laugh, and told Yao'er about the disaster of the grilled fish that caused her to eat bad stomach, and Yao'er pursed her lips and didn't dare to laugh.

Bo An giggled.

Shu Xiaoen pinched his face, "You ghost clever." You can understand anything. Bo An smiled happily, raised her hand to push her hand away, struggled to jump out of Yao'er's arms, and landed firmly into Shu Xiaoen's arms.

Shu Xiaoen said: "The days are still long." Don't think about it so much. Yao'er nodded, smiled and looked at Bo An nestled in Miss's arms, blinking and looking at Shu Xiaoen innocently.

Shu Xiaoen looked at him so cute, smiled and touched his little head. Suddenly remembering something, she looked up at the window, and a flash of lightning flashed in the gray sky, thunder and bombardment, and the sound of rain rattling.

Shu Xiaoen's smile gradually faded, and he muttered, "I don't know if the map of Wuye Island has fallen into the hands of the Baili clan?"

Yao'er's smile froze, her lips curled slightly, and she choked in her throat again when she wanted to comfort her.

Bo An stretched out his hand and gently touched the hair on Shu Xiaoen's cheek, imitating Shu Xiaoen's usual posture of touching his little head as if he was comforting. Shu Xiaoen came back to his senses and smiled gratefully at Bo An.

But there were ripples in her heart, and there was a fear she knew well.

I hope she doesn't meet that person so early in Cause and Effect City—the terrifying being that has become completely unfamiliar to her, Bai Lixiu, the ruler of the Isle of Nothing.
