Jielan didn't expect it to be like this, she looked at the frightened and resentful girl in front of her, her heart hurt like a knife, she walked towards her step by step carefully, and the little girl's face became more and more frightened with each step, and the tighter she held the crescent knife.

The desolate and solemn atmosphere of the night lingered in this lifeless forest, Jielan's heart seemed empty and helpless, and she carefully persuaded as she walked: "Don't be afraid, Xiaoying, Sister Lan is here, and Sister Lan will not let you leave me in the future!" ”

Everyone held their breath, because this little girl looked like a wounded little wolf, although it didn't look very fierce, but if it violated his bottom line, he might fight to the death with you in order to save his life. Jielan approached her, and the little girl suddenly shouted again, "Get out of here, I don't want to see you!" She swung her crescent knife at Jielan, and Jielan dodged it, but still cut her arm, and blood dripped down, obviously injured. But Jielan didn't stop and still walked towards her.

Maybe such a tenacious Jielan made the little girl feel a little shocked, maybe she knew that she hurt the person she once loved the most and was stupid, she didn't resist anymore, but just looked at Jielan blankly, and waited until Jielan approached and hugged her into her arms, she felt the familiar and unfamiliar temperature from Jielan, she both missed and hated.

Tears rolled down her cheeks like beads of broken thread, and she muttered, "You really won't leave it behind... Me? ”

When Jielan heard Shuying's words, her heart hurt even more, and she hugged her tighter, saying, "No, absolutely not." ”

Hearing this, Shuying's small and fragile heart seemed to have found a dock, she buried her head in Jielan's arms, and immediately burst into tears, and the poignant and heartbreaking voice made everyone present a little moved. No one can guess what kind of grievances and suffering such a child has endured to become like this.

Although Qing Zhan and the others felt that this child had a strange origin, and it would obviously be a disaster to stay by their side, they saw that Jielan cared so much about this girl, and they couldn't persuade her to be wary of this girl. When she was tired of crying, Jielan let go of her, she saw that the clothes on Shuying's body were a little torn when they fell, and there were many scars on her body, Jielan carried her to the spring and whispered to her: "I'll help you clean your body, okay?" ”

The little girl suddenly stepped back in fright, hugged herself tightly with both hands, and kept saying, "No, don't, don't touch me!" ”

Jielan didn't know why she was so scared, could it be that there was something in her body that made her suddenly difficult, Jielan saw her like this, afraid that her emotions would lose control and something would happen, so she hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I won't touch you, don't get excited, okay?" ”

Slowly she calmed down, Jielan breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the Shuying in front of her, who had completely changed into a person, confused, sad, and joyful together, she was supposed to be Shuying who died along with other villagers in the catastrophe in the village, but she didn't expect that she was still alive, but why did she appear here? Why did she come to kill herself, why did she learn the spiritual power of this body's sword arts, and what happened to her during the days she disappeared?

No one will know, and I'm afraid it's hard to know.

..................

A few people returned to the original fire, Jielan asked Qi Xue to help take care of Shuying, while she discussed the matter of Shuying with Qingzhan and Chengfeng, after all, everyone went on the road together, and the people who came to attack them should be brought with them now, no matter what, they must make it clear, and they can't go alone.

Qing Zhan didn't object much, but asked, "What the hell is going on with this little girl?" ”

"She was a child in my original village, and then there was a catastrophe in the village, all the villagers died, and at that time the shadow disappeared, I only thought that her bones were eaten by demons after her tragic death, but I didn't expect to appear here, God bless, she was still alive." Jielan still feels very sad when she thinks of Shuying, and she always feels that such a tragedy will happen in the village, completely because of her, and Shuying can escape from bad luck, how can Jielan not be sad and happy.

"So you're going to keep her?" Chengfeng was obviously a little dissatisfied and asked.

Jielan heard Chengfeng's thoughts, and for Chengfeng's attitude, Jielan felt a little unhappy, and only said: "Yes, she's just a little girl, I can't just let her go, do you want me to abandon her again like this?" I'm sorry, I can't. Jielan resolutely stated her attitude, and she didn't want Qing Zhan to refute it.

"Then have you ever wondered how she could suddenly appear in front of you now and attack you in the middle of the night? You should understand that it is suspicious to train such a young child to be what he is now? Don't you understand that she is not the ignorant and naïve girl you used to know, but a killer who is constantly under the control of others and may be sent to kill you? Chengfeng was a little angry at Jielan's decision to go her own way, and naturally he was also thinking about Jielan's life.

Although Jielan understood Chengfeng's intentions for herself, but asked her to give up Shuying, she said that she couldn't do anything, she said coldly: "Even if she was sent to kill me, then I don't mind, she is still a child, I believe that as long as I keep her by my side and take good care of her, she will no longer have bad intentions towards me." No matter what, Jielan still hopes that Chengfeng can agree with her.

Looking at such a stubborn Jielan, Chengfeng was already a little helpless, he knew that no matter how much he persuaded her, she would never listen, Chengfeng looked at Qing Zhan, and his eyes seemed to tell him that he could only rely on him to persuade Jielan.

Qing Zhan smiled indifferently and said to Jielan: "Since you like to keep her by your side, then stay, I don't have any opinion." ”

Jielan was very moved when she heard Qing Zhan say this, and felt that Qing Zhan understood herself more and understood herself, although she also knew in her heart that Chengfeng dissuaded herself for her own good, but a woman's heart was like this, and she was always willing to be stunned by the person who really understood herself. She smiled gratefully at Qing Zhan, although she didn't say anything, but there was no need to say more about the thousand words of thanks, and then she faced Chengfeng coldly and said, "I'm going to take care of Shuying, don't worry, I won't let you worry about her." She turned back to her resting place, moved Shuying from Qixue's arms to her side, and took care of this young life with tenderness and care.

Chengfeng saw that Jielan was so stubborn, and he was quite helpless, he looked at Qingzhan very angrily, and was quite annoyed in his heart, thinking how could he agree with Jielan's ridiculous approach. Qing Zhan knew that Chengfeng had a grudge against him, he only said softly: "I know you are thinking about why I agreed to her, I think you should know her character, so why should you annoy her for the sake of opposition, if neither of us agrees to her, do you believe that what she said next is to take the girl alone and stop bothering us all the way?" Qing Zhan said with a smile, not as anxious about this matter as Chengfeng.

After listening to Qing Zhan's words, Chengfeng felt that he was very reasonable, and deeply admired that he was able to understand Jielan so well, and he, although he understood her personality, he couldn't follow it, this is the difference between him and Qing Zhan, and it is no wonder that Jielan's heart has always been on Qing Zhan's body.

"So what now? Can't just sit idly by? Chengfeng became worried.

"What else can we do but sit idly by? The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, but since the chess pieces put by the enemy are in our hands, presumably he will definitely appear in a short time, so we just need to wait with peace of mind, as for this girl, you and I will take turns to keep an eye on it. Qing Zhan said calmly, although he was also a little worried about what was happening now, he was a young monarch after all, so he seemed calm.

"That's all it takes, but who do you think will shoot at her?" Chengfeng always felt that what he was afraid of had gradually begun.

"No matter who it is, it's always going to make a move when it's time to make a move, and that's what I expected." Qing Zhan's expression sharpened, like a falcon.

"So, you expected someone to assassinate her on this trip, which is why you offered to go all the way with us in order to protect her from reaching the royal city safely, right?" Chengfeng admired and was angry at Qingzhan's intentions, he knew the danger of this trip, but he still introduced Jielan step by step into the kind of place that shouldn't belong to her, which made Chengfeng acceptable.

Qing Zhan just smiled, and didn't intend to answer Chengfeng's question, he looked towards the fire, but saw Jielan hugging Shuying, who was gradually falling asleep, looking at her sleeping so peacefully, Qing Zhan also felt very relieved, he thought in his heart: "Even if someone wants to harm you, I will use my life to keep you safe, so please feel at ease by my side and don't worry about anything." ”

Although Chengfeng was very angry at Qingzhan's approach, he couldn't persuade Jielan, so he had to let it develop, he stayed at a distance of a hundred meters from Jielan, always paying attention to the movements around him, as long as he noticed something abnormal, he would rush over to protect Jielan.

Until the ugly hour, Chengfeng and Qingzhan both felt a little sleepy, but the two were still vigilant about the movement around them, and at this time, they suddenly heard beautiful music from a distance, although the sound was very light but a little sharp, so Qingzhan and Chengfeng could hear it clearly. On such a night, it was obviously unusual for someone to play music, Chengfeng nodded at Qing Zhan, and Qing Zhan also understood that he wanted to investigate, but Qing Zhan shook his head and told him not to act rashly. Chengfeng understood that Qing Zhan was afraid of the tiger leaving the mountain, and he also calmed down and waited quietly.
