The person who came was a brown bear with a white spot on its chin.

He carried a miserable white lantern in his hand, and the light of the candle blown out by the wind did not illuminate his expression.

Linghua stepped forward and opened his mouth first: "Zhuo envoy, what a coincidence." ”

"Qiao?" Zhuo Zhuo looked at Linghua angrily, he wanted to scold and pressed it down, his cheeks bulged high, he clenched his back molars and said, "Do you want to die?" ”

Linghua was about to speak, Heng Gu ran in front of her, the young man's tall and thin body blocked Zhuo Zhuo's angry face, and said without giving in: "What are you going to do to my sister?" ”

Zhuo Zhuo looked at Heng Gu's vigilant look, sighed, gritted his teeth and blamed: "It's dangerous here, you shouldn't come here." ”

Linghua rose from Henggu's shoulder, and his tone was innocent: "We just want to come here to find my friend." ”

Zhuo Zhuo glanced away, lowered his head and said anxiously: "He's not here, don't look for him, I'll send you back." ”

Linghua keenly followed his line of sight, as if looking at the wooden building.

Zhuo Zhuo said that, the bear's paw raised slightly, and a door appeared out of thin air in the air from the bottom to the top with his movements. The streamer flickered in the door, and Zhuo Zhuo tilted his head and motioned for them to enter.

"The fence door won't open." Heng Gu whispered beside Linghua, and after saying that, the two glanced at each other, and Heng Gu quickly ran to the edge of the fence and dragged He Nian over.

He Nian still didn't relax at this time, he still couldn't give up, his eyes stared at the ground under his feet sluggishly, and his body was limp and leaned on Heng Gu's body.

Zhuo Zhuo saw that He Nian was also there, his pupils shrank, and he pushed the three of them directly into the streamer door, and walked in himself.

In the familiar courtyard of the new two rooms, a shining vertical line slowly unfolded, gradually turning into a colorful door suspended in the air.

Heng Gu walked out of the door first, he turned around to help Linghua step down, and went to help He Nian.

Zhuo Zhuo saw his enthusiastic appearance, and he was angry: "If you are really good to him, you should not take him there!" ”

Heng Gu just sent He Nian to the door of the house, and when he heard Zhuo Zhuo's words, he strode in front of him after thinking for a moment, deliberately provoking him: "Brother He is enthusiastic and wants to help us find friends." is righteous enough, so that he is not afraid. ”

"He's not afraid?" Zhuo Zhuo frowned and sneered, "Fortunately, I am on duty today, if you are replaced by another messenger, the three of you will only end up as a 'corpse' on the 'hillside'." ”

Linghua glanced at Heng Gu when he heard this, Heng Gu choked, turned around and went back with a "hum", sent He Nian to the house, and groped with He Yue to gently cover up the secret passage.

Linghua apologized to Zhuo Zhuo and explained: "My younger brother is impatient, Zhuo Envoy forgive me. ”

"Miss Ling, do you think I'm angry because of his attitude?" Zhuo Zhuo sighed, "I don't want you to die in vain!" ”

"But what's the solution? If I want to save my friends, I have to look around. Even if there is danger? Can my friend be half as safe as I am now? ”

Linghua's words are unquestionably strong: "Don't dare to forget the goodness of others." The kindness of others will be repaid forever. My friends have helped me a lot, so even if I die here, I will die on the way to save people, and I will die a well-deserved death. ”

"Pedantic!" Zhuo Zhuo hated that iron could not become steel, "Miss Ling, I thought you were a smart person, but I didn't expect you to be so stubborn and pedantic. If you want to save people, how can you go on a rampage? There are many dangers here, and if you are too public, you will only die. ”

"So what do I do? Can you save people by going to work every day? Linghua spoke in a more impulsive tone, "Instead of eating here and waiting for death, it's better to fight to the death!" ”

Zhuo Zhuo was provoked by Linghua's words, and he pointed to He Nian's house: "So is this the reason why you dragged an innocent person and used his secret passage to put him in danger?" ”

Linghua was stunned for a while: "You know? ”

The subtle "rustle" sound that covered the dark passage in the house stopped, and Henggu came out of the curtain and stood at the door silently looking at Zhuo Zhuo.

Zhuo Zhuo felt speechless and let out a sigh of relief, his expression was quite sad and lonely: "I know, of course I know." I've been here for many years, and I know every grain of sand here. If they want to escape, I won't stop them, but if they want to die, I don't think it's worth it. ”

Linghua looked at his sad color, and felt that Zhuo Zhuo was a demon with a good heart. She shook her head and deliberately quibbled: "Whether it is worth it or not depends on what kind of environment it is, now that I am alone, I can only rely on brute force to fight, and it doesn't matter whether I live or die." ”

Zhuo Zhuo raised his head in disbelief, and was just about to open his mouth to persuade him, when he suddenly calmed down and looked at Linghua carefully: "You don't look like such a person. ”

Linghua was stunned for a moment, she thought that the demon heart was easy to understand, and no human nature was complicated, and Zhuo Zhuo's temperament she knew enough, and she was eighty percent sure that she could arouse his fist heart to help herself, but she didn't expect him to react suddenly, it seemed to be more human than she imagined, but it caught her off guard.

She evoked a helpless smile and asked herself: "What kind of person am I?" I don't know that now. But I knew what I needed, and that was to rescue those who could continue to live and let them live. ”

Zhuo Zhuo looked at Linghua for a long time, then said coldly: "Then don't take them to dangerous places, I will find an opportunity to send you out again, let's be more stable these days." ”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, Linghua hurriedly took two steps to catch up: "What about my friend?" Does he still have a chance to get out? ”

Zhuo Zhuo was about to answer, but saw the Jiao envoy walking from the next courtyard with a lantern in his mouth. He was startled and ran into the earthen house in the middle with Linghua.

Heng Gu also followed back to his room, watched Zhuo Zhuo pull Linghua, and hurriedly clapped his hands. Zhuo Zhuo let go of his hand, pointed out anxiously, and made a silent gesture.

The sheep's hooves of the messenger "clicked" in the small courtyard, stopped for a moment, and then gradually moved away.

Linghua looked at Zhuo Zhuo beside her, knowing that this was a great opportunity, she pushed Heng Gu away, pulled Zhuo Zhuo's arm behind her, and shouted, "Ah! ”

The sheep's hooves in the small courtyard really rushed over, and Linghua vaguely saw that the thick cloth curtain was pointed up by the sheep's horns. She screamed again, and was immediately covered by Zhuo Zhuo's bear paws, leaving only a muffled scream of "hmm".

The Jiao Envoy opened the cloth curtain with the sheep's horns and ran to the earthen house, the sheep's hooves flew up, and was about to kick Linghua's face, Zhuo Zhuo's bear paw grabbed the sheep's hooves and twisted them, and the Jiao Envoy fell into a sheep and ate.

"What do you want to do?"

Hearing the voice, the Jiao envoy hurriedly got up, looked at it carefully, and saw Linghua snuggling up to Zhuo Zhuo's shoulder with a frightened face, and Zhuo Zhuo's arm was on Linghua's waist......

His mouth opened wide in surprise, and the white lantern fell to the ground and ignored it, and said in shock: "You, you ......"

When Linghua saw the appearance of the Jiao envoy, he knew that he must have misunderstood, squeezed his eyes and raised a layer of mist, and grabbed Zhuo Zhuo delicately: "Brother Zhuo, the Jiao envoy has seen it, you have to be responsible for me!" ”

Zhuo Zhuo couldn't argue: "I didn't do anything......"

Jiao Envoy was happy to hear it, he quickly reacted and smiled: "Brother, I have long seen that the relationship between the two of you is not ordinary, and you were at the gate of the town at that time." ”

Jiao's small and round eyes shone brightly, and he leaned closer to look at Linghua: "This girl is okay, she is not afraid when she sees our real body, she can't be human, right?" ”

Zhuo Zhuo pushed away the Jiao envoy: "You stay away from her." ”

The Jiao envoy laughed and said, "Ouch, this is protected." If you really like people, take her to your house, just let the brothers ...... together."

Zhuo Zhuo's face sank, and he kicked the sheep's stomach: "Get out!" ”

He carried the messenger with the body of a sheep in one hand and a lantern in the other, and taught as he walked out: "Don't say such things in front of people in the future." ”

Jiao's neck was pinched in his palm, and he broke free uncomfortably, and said disdainfully: "You eat madman grass, right?" What's the problem?

What is there to be afraid of in humans? It's easier to kill them with just a finger than eating! This little girl is waiting for you to have enough fun and kill it, she can't escape anyway, why do you care so much?

If it weren't for the fact that there have been a shortage of people in the past few years, how many do you think they would have survived? I've long wanted to kill these iron-headed people, but I didn't kill you because of your face, and you're still crazy about me? ”

Zhuo Zhuo's footsteps slowed down when he heard this, he looked at the back of Jiao Envoy in the distance, and remembered Linghua's firm and stubborn expression.

"Play enough and kill...... Let them give birth to ...... Alas, that's why you want to catch me at the cost of losing your reputation? ”

Zhuo Zhuo glanced back at the small courtyard and left thoughtfully.

In the earthen house, Henggu, who had gathered his breath, showed his face from the darkness, and he curled up on the earthen bed and hugged his knees, without saying a word.

Linghua groped to the side of the bed, touched the corner of his clothes and dragged it down: "Henggu, are you angry?" ”

"No, you have such a big idea, how dare I be angry with you." He pulled the corner of his clothes away from Linghua's hand, turned his back and closed his eyes.

Linghua lay down behind him, his fingers trying to touch Henggu's shoulder but retracting it in vain. She knew she didn't care about his feelings, and pushed him out again at the critical moment.

These days, she has also seen Henggu's progress, but in the past year, she has always regarded him as a child who needs to be protected, and she can't turn a corner for a while.

Her lips quirmed a few times, and she looked up to see him. In the dark, the young man's side face was cold, Linghua felt guilty in his heart, and his tone was soft: "I shouldn't have pushed you away." ”

The corners of Henggu's mouth twitched, controlling the smile he was about to unfold, and turned his head sideways to listen to her: "What else?" ”

Linghua tugged at his ears: "And?" What else is there that makes you ask for sin? ”

"You forgot?" He turned over anxiously, his long narrow eyes glaring at the boss, "Don't you remember that in the Chunnuan Pavilion, you promised me to bear it together and advance and retreat together?" At that time, he promised me that he would treat me as an adult, and now he is acting alone and will not consult with me. ”

Linghua felt the resentment of Heng Gu, she thought for a moment, pointed his chin with her index finger and said frankly: "Before I met you, I did everything by myself. At that time, I didn't have you, I didn't reunite with An Huai, whether it was happiness or suffering, it was just my own. So I've never put other people in my own considerations.

But since I brought you, I have someone to take care of and care for. I always subconsciously want to protect you, not to drag you down, not to let you get hurt because of my business.

It's become a habit for me, and it's hard to change it for a while. I broke your heart by pushing you away, will you forgive me for my negligence this time? ”

Henggu pouted: "I'm not as easy to talk as I used to, you have to tell me all your future plans, so that I can know how to cooperate with you." ”

Linghua touched his head and said with relief: "You didn't get angry about what happened to me and Zhuo Zhuo, you really grew up."

I didn't intend to have an emotional relationship with him before, but it was a good time, and the envoy talked about Zhuo Zhuo when we entered the town, he was a sheep with a broken mouth, and maybe it could be a move for us.

Now I don't know what the situation of An Huai is, and Chen Wan's corpse has not progressed...... If we keep consuming, I'm afraid we will all be in danger. There is not much time left, and only by getting in touch with him can it be possible to borrow his hand to go to other places, so as to help the investigation. ”

Heng Gu nodded first, and then shook his head: "In case he doesn't get set, we will have to pay ourselves for nothing." ”

Linghua lay flat and seemed to see a glimmer of light in the darkness: "Originally, he might not agree, but with Jiao's envoy involved, he can't escape." ”

The next day, Linghua went to work as usual, and Zhuo Zhuo was nowhere to be seen in the big kitchen.

She walked into the wide loess room, stood between the human and the phantom, listened to the silent and mechanical sound of the human chopping vegetables, intertwined with the lively conversation in the phantom, and she numbly kneaded the dough in her hand, as if it was no different from the people around her.

"What's wrong with you, Lao Zhang?" The afterimage beside him suddenly approached Linghua and said with concern, "Are you sick?" ”

Linghua glanced to the side silently and saw a woman in her thirties carefully examining her face. Confused, she took a half-step to the side, only to realize that her body had somehow overlapped on top of another afterimage.

The afterimage of the questioner was a man in his forties, he touched his forehead and said with a smile: "Oh, it's all a minor illness and a small disaster, don't ask, let's get to work." ”

"How can this work, go to Zhenxi Medical Center and make sure you are cured."

The man was puzzled: "Zhenxi Medical Center? Where is this? ”

Behind the man, an afterimage gathered and waved his hand: "Lao Zhang, don't go!" Zhenxi Medical Center is very godly, and it is also very evil, let's not go there to see a doctor! ”
