Chapter 13: Shangguan Xiaoxian
The situation outside the diagonal door, Ye Kai has made a lot of assumptions.
Ye Kai thought about it, outside the corner gate, it was very likely that there was a barren mountain range. Among the barren mountains and mountains, it is the most suitable for Tibetans.
Ye Kai thought about it, outside the corner gate, it was very likely that there was a vast body of water. Between the vast waters, it is the best way to avoid suspicion.
Ye Kai even imagined that outside the corner gate, there might be an extremely prosperous downtown area. Great hidden in the city. The person who captures himself is most likely to trap himself in the most unexpected place.
But Ye Kai never expected that after he opened the corner door, he would see something in front of him.
What Ye Kai saw was a small room.
There is nothing peculiar about this little house, in the eyes of any other person. But the first time Ye Kai saw it, he was stunned.
Ye Kai took a light breath, then took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the hut.
Ye Kai gently stepped on the stairs leading to the wooden door of the hut and climbed the stairs.
There are only seven stairs.
Ye Kai has walked through such stairs many times.
The same staircase, Ye Kai has walked many times.
The moment he stepped on the stairs, Ye Kai had already confirmed that these seven stairs were the seven stairs back then.
The third step of the staircase, which has been repaired. It was repaired by Ye Kai himself.
Now, the trace that Ye Kai once repaired is still there. Just like it was back then.
There is a pattern in the middle of the fifth step of the staircase. It was the pattern of the wooden strip that made this staircase, like a smiling face. Today, the smiling face-like pattern is still there. Just like it was back then.
On the left side of the staircase, there is a pot of lilies. Not big, not small, not delicate, not glamorous, but elegant. In late autumn, it is the time when the lilies bloom. Just like it was back then.
On the right side of the staircase, a string of wind chimes hangs. Not new, not old, not flashy, not beautiful, but it rings pleasantly. The breeze is blowing, and it is the time when the wind chimes jingle. Just like it was back then.
There is no lock on the door of the hut.
Ye Kai could see that the door of the hut was just hidden. Just like it was back then.
Ye Kai gently pushed the door open.
Inside the cottage, neat, simple, clean and elegant. Just like it was back then.
On the table in the hut was a vase with a slender neck and a long body. Inside the vase, there is a handful of fresh and delicate narcissus. The vase is as new, and the narcissus as alive. Just like it was back then.
On the wall of the hut was a small cradle. Above the cradle, in the middle of the cradle, there is a small shelf. On the shelves, dozens of small paper cranes are hanging. Just like it was back then.
Next to the bassinet, there is a bed. The bed is not wide, just enough for a person to lie on comfortably. The bed is not narrow enough for one person to snuggle up in another person's arms and lie on it. Just like it was back then.
There was a quilt on the bed. Ye Kai knew that this quilt was very wide. If the quilt is spread out, it is enough to cover the bed tightly, and it is enough to ensure that the person sleeping on this bed will not kick the quilt off. Because, the person who slept in such a bed back then always slept like a child, and would keep kicking the quilt.
There are two pillows on the bed. Ye Kai knew that these two pillows were very soft. Ye Kai also knew that of these two pillows, one was for pillows and the other was for hugging. Because, people who slept on such a bed back then always liked to hold one of the pillows in their arms.
In addition to the quilt and pillows, there are several toys on the bed. A few small toys that only small dolls can play with. Every little toy, Ye Kai knows. The same small toy, Ye Kai used to make it himself. Ye Kai can even be sure that these small toys placed on this bed must have been made by himself back then. I made it with my own hands with someone who slept on such a bed.
Ye Kai's heart was chilling. Cold to the bottom of my heart.
Ye Kai hadn't had this feeling of being cold to the bottom of his heart for many years.
Ye Kai is not a person who will feel cold in his heart. Ye Kai's personality, like his name, is happy, cheerful, open-minded, and cheerful.
But at this moment, Ye Kai's heart was chilling. Cold to the bottom of my heart. It's cold to the bone.
The cottage was on the wall facing the door and had a window.
The windows are not high. Sitting in front of the window, you can see the view from the window. People who stayed in such a room back then liked to sit in front of such a window and watch the flowers bloom and the birds and butterflies dance outside the window.
The windows are huge. With a single drill, one person can easily drill out of the window. People who stayed in such a room back then often liked to get out of such a window, and on the grass outside, looking at Ye Kai standing in front of the window, laughing happily.
Ye Kai took another breath. I took a soft breath. Took a deep breath.
Then, Ye Kai gently pushed the window open.
Then, in Ye Kai's brain, there was a bang. Ye Kai was stunned again.
Although Ye Kai was mentally prepared as soon as he saw this hut, and although Ye Kai was mentally prepared as soon as he saw everything in the hut, Ye Kai was still stunned.
Beyond the window, the grass is the same. On the meadow, the Yiren are the same. On Yiren's face, the smile was the same.
Shangguan Xiaoxian.
The person with a smile on the grass is Shangguan Xiaoxian!
The same outfit, the same face, the same smile, the same Shangguan Xiaoxian.
Everything is exactly the same as when Shangguan Xiaoxian was back then.
Spring comes and falls, cold and summer alternate, and Ye Kai's face already has traces of time. But Shangguan Xiaoxian's face did not have the slightest change that the years should bring. Shangguan Xiaoxian was still holding the clay doll she had been holding back then.
With three points of curiosity, three points of doubt, three points of fear, and one point of expectation, Shangguan Xiaoxian looked at Ye Kai and asked timidly, softly, and aggrievedly, "Are you the person sent by my father-in-law?"
"Shangguan Xiaoxian?" Ye Kai asked with another gentle breath. In Ye Kai's voice, there was not the slightest emotion. Not cold, not hot. No rush, no anger.
"Shhhh Shangguan Xiaoxian gently raised a finger, and then gently patted the mud doll in his arms. While patting the child, Shangguan Xiaoxian walked towards the window.
Ye Kai didn't move. Ye Kai looked at Shangguan Xiaoxian quietly, as if he was looking at an old friend who had not seen him for many years, and as if he was looking at a stranger who had never known him.
"Are you someone sent by my husband?" Shangguan Xiaoxian asked softly as he walked to the window. Her voice was soft and low. She asked, carefully patting the clay doll in her arms.
"Isn't it fun?" Ye Kai asked.
"What's fun?" Shangguan Xiaoxian's expression was a little surprised.
"The same thing, is it fun?" Ye Kai asked. This time, Ye Kai's voice was a little cold. Ye Kai's eyes were also a little cold.
"What are you talking about?" Shangguan Xiaoxian's body shrank slightly. She looked a little scared, as if she was afraid of Ye Kai's voice and eyes.
Ye Kai didn't speak. He just stood quietly, quietly looking at Shangguan Xiaoxian, as if he wanted to look into Shangguan Xiaoxian's eyes and into Shangguan Xiaoxian's heart.
"You weren't sent by Zhiqiu, who are you?" Shangguan Xiaoxian shrank back again. Her appearance was a little aggrieved and a little vigilant.
"Who is Zhiqiu?" Ye Kai asked.
"Zhiqiu is my husband. Shangguan Xiaoxian's face showed a happy look.
"If you weren't sent by Zhiqiu, you'd better leave quickly. Shangguan Xiaoxian continued.
"Your husband is very powerful?" Ye Kai asked.
"Of course Zhiqiu is amazing. Shangguan Xiaoxian's face showed a proud look.
"Jiangnan beautiful land, Jinling Imperial State. The white rainbow is eternal, and the immortals are reaped. The lonely luan does not see blood, and there is nowhere to rest in the battle. Ten thousand calamities are only swords, and a leaf painting is autumn. Shangguan Xiaoxian Man groaned. Her face was full of light. It was the look of a wife talking about her amazing husband.
"This poem is about your husband?" Ye Kai frowned.
"You haven't even heard of this? You must not be from the rivers and lakes. Shangguan Xiaoxian said.
"Is your husband from the rivers and lakes?" Ye Kai said.
"Of course, Zhiqiu is a person in the rivers and lakes. Zhiqiu is a big hero and a big hero. Shangguan Xiaoxian said.
"Where's your husband?" Ye Kai said.
"What do you want to do?" Shangguan carefully hugged the mud doll in his arms tighter, looked at Ye Kai vigilantly, and asked.
"My favorite thing to see is the big heroes. Ye Kaidao.
"You'd better hurry up. My husband doesn't like outsiders to bother us. Shangguan Xiaoxian said solemnly.
"I'm kidding you. I am the one sent by your husband. Ye Kai laughed.
"Really? That's great. Shangguan Xiaoxian said happily.
"Not true. You lied to me. Immediately after, Shangguan Xiaoxian's expression became vigilant again.
"I didn't lie to you. You see, this is a token from your husband to me. Ye Kai raised his hand. Between his fingers, there was a throwing knife. A three-inch-seven-minute long flying knife.
"I think I've seen this knife somewhere. Shangguan Xiaoxian's brows furrowed slightly.
"This knife is a token that your husband gave me. Ye Kai laughed.
"I think I've seen this knife somewhere. Shangguan Xiaoxian repeated. Her brow furrowed tighter and tighter.
"I was really sent by your husband. Ye Kaidao. He stepped softly out of the window. He stepped out as if the window wasn't there at all. That's how he stepped in and out of the window back then.
Ye Kai stood in front of Shangguan Xiaoxian.
Shangguan Xiaoxian shrank back again. She held the clay doll in her arms and shrunk back slightly.
"I'll take you to your husband. Ye Kai stretched out his hand gently. The throwing knife in his hand was gone. In his hands, there are three kinds of changes. One of these changes can break the magic of the Demon Cult.
This method of fascination can not only charm the hearts of others, but also temporarily charm one's own hearts. Shangguan Xiaoxian back then used this method of fascination to charm her own heart when she needed it, and it was also the heart of everyone around her that charmed her.
"You didn't lie to me, did you?" Shangguan Xiaoxian shrank back again. Her shrinkage was just a woman's instinctive reaction to a stranger's outstretched hand. She shrank and couldn't avoid any kind of change in Ye Kai's hand.
"Of course I didn't lie to you. Ye Kai sighed softly. Regardless of whether the person in front of her was Shangguan Xiaoxian or not, as long as she didn't avoid it, Ye Kai wouldn't be able to make a move.
