Outside the door is a small fenced courtyard, there is a big apricot tree in the yard, and a stone table is placed under the tree. The fence is crawling with birdworms and firecracker flowers, the former is weak, the latter is wild, and it is not against harmony when they grow together.

Where has she been? Tu Xing'er looked back in a daze and saw herself walking out of a farmhouse.

There are two bedrooms in one hall, and there is also a firewood room in the courtyard.

There is a large water tank under the eaves, which is specially designed to catch the rain, and now the tank is half full of water.

Looking around again, the jungle behind is reckless, the pasture fields in front are like songs, and there are cattle grazing in the fields.

Did she live in a small cabin on the edge of the forest farm? Tu Xing'er was a little surprised and a little happy.

Once upon a time, she and Brother Ming imagined the future, and she said that it would be good to have a farmhouse where a man can live a life of a man and a woman. At that time, Brother Ming laughed at her, saying that a lady like her couldn't stand the poor life, and he had to make a lot of money to support her well.

Now, one of her dreams has come true?

Tu Xing'er gathered the clothes on her body and didn't feel happy. There were so many strange things that had happened since she fell off the cliff that the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became.

In just two days, how did Brother Ming find this farmhouse?

Where is the owner of this house, did Brother Ming buy the farmhouse from them?

And, most importantly, where do others go?

He has been missing a lot for the past two days, what is he doing?

She was full of questions, but there was no one in the farmhouse.

Where is this?

Just as she was in doubt, Tu Xing'er noticed a shadow slowly approaching in the corner of her eye.

She turned her head to look, frightened:

The door to the firewood room opened at some point, and a monster emerged from inside.

It used to have two heads, but now there was only one, and one of its eyes seemed to be broken, and its face and neck were bandaged.

But the white gauze couldn't hide its fierce appearance.

This monster is as big as a tiger, and the fangs in its mouth are even longer!

Tu Xing'er ran into the house with an exclamation, slamming the door shut, and her skills were very agile.

She swallowed, and was about to move the table in the hall against the door, when she turned her head and saw that the window was wide open, and she was terrified.

Worst!

She hurried to the window, trying to lower the barrier, and swept her gaze downward, only to see the monster lying on the ground facing the window, with something in its mouth.

What is that?

Her eyes were good, and even though she glanced at it in a hurry, she vaguely recognized that it should be a piece of paper.

"Click", and the window was closed.

Tu Xing'er sat in the hall, trembling.

Outside the house was quiet, and there was no sound.

The monster didn't attack the cabin, though she thought it looked so powerful that it wouldn't be difficult to break doors and windows to get in, but it didn't get up to leave, otherwise she would have heard its footsteps.

Tu Xing'er sat in the room and waited and waited, as if it had been a long, long time.

The panicked heartbeat gradually calmed down, and she remembered that the piece of paper in the monster's mouth seemed to have words.

The monster was just biting and playing, Tu Xing'er said to herself, how did it understand what was written on it, right?

After a long while, there was still no sound outside, but she was even more curious in her heart.

After sitting for half an hour, she slowly moved to the window, trying to open a crack in the window and peek out.

But there was a blank piece of paper in the window.

It seems to be the one in the monster's mouth?

Tu Xing'er's scalp was numb, but she still held the white paper and pulled it out of the window little by little.

Just one line on the paper:

Apricot don't be afraid, the monster's name is Xiaoxi, and it will only protect you and not harm you. I have something to go out, you wait for me to come back, and I will answer all my questions at that time.

Just one word:

Ming.

Tu Xing'er read the note back and forth twice, and most of the fear in her heart was replaced by suspicion.

She dared to open the window a little more.

Oh, the monster was still lying on the ground, its eyes half-closed. As soon as Tu Xing'er opened the window, its ears moved, and then it opened its eyes and looked over.

She resisted the urge to withdraw her hand, and stared at the monster with the window slightly open. The latter winked at her twice, then tilted his head to the side and fell asleep.

It does not seem to be aggressive.

Tu Xing'er felt even more unbelievable, Brother Ming could actually command this monster?

She wanted a reasonable explanation, and Brother Ming said that when he returned, he would answer her questions and answer all questions.

Tu Xing'er sighed, remembering the series of encounters she had when she left home, and she felt like a world away.

Before eloping, the biggest hardship she experienced was her family's resolute opposition to her affair. But now, she has experienced a monster attack, fell off the cliff and was rescued, Pan Tugou's various visions, and a series of other strange things, she felt that she was too naïve at that time, and only her feelings could be greater than the sky.

Besides, Brother Ming has also become quirky, even this hand-

She looked down at the note, Brother Ming's handwriting was very beautiful, but a little exaggerated. But the words on this paper look similar to Brother Ming's handwriting, calm and sophisticated, but even better.

It is said that words are like people, could it be that he has experienced the line of life and death, and Brother Ming's state of mind has also grown?

At this time, there was a sound of water slugging outside.

Tu Xing'er looked out the window and saw that the monster was drinking water in the water tank.

She pursed her lips and looked at it for a while before she asked softly, "Do you recognize Brother Ming?"

She hadn't thought the monster would respond, but it nodded at her.

Can it understand? Tu Xing'er immediately perked up: "Do you know where he went?"

The monster nodded again.

In other words, only she doesn't know? Tu Xing'er was a little irritable, but she still asked it in a good voice: "Can you take me to him?"

This time, the monster shook its head and paced back to where it was.

Tu Xing'er understood, this is not only protection, but also surveillance and enclosure. The monster had to make sure she didn't run out without permission.

She was about to speak, when a female voice suddenly sounded not far away: "I can take you there." ”

Who?

Tu Xing'er was taken aback, and the monster quickly got up, lowered its body, bared its fangs, and made a prelude to the attack.

Someone slowly approached the fence.

This is a woman, about thirty years old, with a fair face and a graceful demeanor.

The low growl in the monster's mouth grew louder and louder, and its eyes were full of hatred. Tu Xing'er finally saw in it what it means to be "fierce".

"Your master is not here, and you can't protect her. The woman smiled and said to Tu Xing'er, "Follow me obediently, I won't hurt you." ”

"Who are you?" Tu Xing'er hesitated, "Did you recognize the wrong person? We are new here, and we have no grudges against you!"

The woman smiled: "Are you Tu Xing'er? Is your husband Wang Mingzhi?"

The name is right. Tu Xing'er was shocked: "You, you!" But she turned to say, "Wang Mingzhi is not my husband!" Not yet.

"Whatever. The woman shrugged her shoulders and suddenly opened the fence door and walked in.

The monster roared and pounced.

This style is more terrifying than a tiger pounced, Tu Xing'er closed her eyes and hid her face, not daring to look at it again.
