after a long time... after a long time...
Consciousness gradually recovers.
And a new script gradually emerged in his mind.
Chew every line in detail... Keep all the plots that happened firmly in mind. Then, she started to enter the role of "Xiahou Xuanyin" again.
Everything that happened last night seemed like a nightmare.
Thirty-two, who was carrying the lantern, actually drove the corpses that got out of the coffin back into the coffin
"Could it be that Xiangxi drove the corpse?"
She uttered her first line in the script.
After changing her clothes, she came to the door of the room.
At this time, Xuanyin's hands trembled slightly, and she didn't dare to push the door in front of her. It seems that when the door is opened, something extremely terrible will happen.
After a long time, she took a deep breath and returned to the bed.
At this time, it was eight o'clock in the morning. It was supposed to be a sunny day. However, looking out of the window, the sky seemed to be covered by sandstorms, and the sunlight was also covered a lot.
A gloomy atmosphere enveloped the entire Ming Mountain.
She stretched out her hand, clutching the fragment of the map she had put in her underwear.
At this time, there was a knock on the door suddenly.
"Miss Xiahou, are you awake?"
"Yes... I'm awake."
It was the voice of thirty-two. And when he came, Xuanyin was finally driven away from fear, and then walked to the door and opened it gently.
Behind Thirty-two stood two red-clothed girls.
"Thirty-four, thirty-six, wait for Miss Xiahou to wash up, and then bring her to the lobby to have dinner with Mr. Xiahou. She is a member of Xiahou's family, so don't neglect her."
"Yes."
The two girls answered in unison. Their expressions are dull and mechanized, just like Thirty-two, their faces are pale and bloodless.
Xuanyin stared at the two girls, feeling that they didn't look like living people at all.
"No need, I can..."
"You are from Xiahou's family." Thirty-two flatly rejected it: "Of course the cost of food and clothing cannot be the same as that of our servants."
Xuanyin saw that one of the girls had already taken a set of red clothes in advance. However, this red dress is different from what Thirty Two and the others are wearing. The material is obviously better and the workmanship is more delicate, and after wearing it, it fits very well.
Five minutes later, she came to the hall of Yizhuang.
Several red-clothed servants stood aside, while Xiahou Jiaoyan sat alone at the dining table.
It's just... Many of the breakfasts he visited in front of him were beans.
Xuanyin was waited on and sat opposite Jiao Yan.
"I have already reported your matter. If you get approval, you can return to Xiahou's house."
"Return... Xiahou's house?" Xuanyin seemed to understand something: "I don't plan to live here forever."
"Really?" Jiao Yan shook his head slightly, and said, "Even so, it cannot be changed. The family's decision is above everything else."
Xuanyin looked at the green beans placed in front of her, picked up the chopsticks, took one and put it in her mouth.
"If you return to the family..." Jiao Yan looked at Xuanyin who was savoring the green beans, and said unhurriedly, "I can tell you about the 'map'."
Xuanyin's hand holding the chopsticks trembled. Then, he looked towards Jiaoyan.
"How does it taste?"
"It's...not bad. But it doesn't seem like bean season is..."
"It has nothing to do with the season. This saves you from getting tangled up in some nasty stuff."
"..."
"I know you want to ask a lot of questions. However, I can't tell you yet. This afternoon, you will accompany me to transport the coffin here to the cemetery."
"The cemetery at the foot of the mountain?"
"That's just a small part of the cemetery. The Xiahou's family was buried there, and they are all of your branch blood. Like you, I am of the branch blood, which is very different from the clan members."
"Separation? Clan?"
"Xiahou's family is divided into the main family (or clan) and the sub-family. The blood of the main family is relatively pure, while the blood of the sub-family is mixed."
The green beans she swallowed made Xuanyin feel uncomfortable for some reason.
"Among the coffins here, there is... a member of the clan. Therefore, it must be transported to the clan's tomb."
"sorry… "
Xuanyin suddenly ran out of the hall, came outside Yi Zhuang, and suddenly vomited.
She obviously didn't eat many green beans...but she vomited them up completely.
At this time, two girls, thirty-four and thirty-six, ran over and helped Xuanyin up.
"What's wrong with you?" Thirty-four handed over a clean handkerchief.
"I don't know... I'm not used to eating..."
"Aren't you from Xiahou's family?"
"Thirty-four." Thirty-six suddenly said coldly: "Don't talk too much. Remember Thirty-two's instructions."
That's weird... why would you name yourself a number
Why eating this... makes me want to vomit...
Why
Could it be that she is pregnant? No, this month's menstrual event is coming...
When thinking of this, Xuanyin thought of Junhao.
At this time, in a trance, she seemed to remember something...
"Send... send me back..."
what is that
A figure covered in blood... But, too blurry to see clearly...
Xuanyin held her forehead, and she wiped her mouth with the handkerchief.
What was that just now
Not the old lady. It's an earlier memory. But, has she forgotten
The clear gravure that appeared on the car emerged. Jun Hao, could it be that he... was killed by himself? Wasn't he the one who called after that
Why is there such a disordered memory
"I don't want to be buried here..."
"what?"
Xuanyin suddenly pushed Thirty-Four and Thirty-Six away, and shouted, "I definitely don't want to be buried here!"
For the next time, she stayed alone in the room. Thirty-four and thirty-six, on the other hand, stared at her all the time, as if they were watching her. And these two girls will never take the initiative to talk to her, and if they ask them anything, they will only answer in the shortest words.
"There are ghosts in this world, right?"
That was the question she asked on the bus before. It's just that the question is more joking, but at the moment, it is very serious.
When this question was finally asked, Thirty Four and Thirty Six stared wide-eyed, as if they didn't know how to answer better.
"Do you know that person?" Without waiting for the second daughter to answer, she threw out a new question, or...a new "line".
"One is wearing a black hood, about 1.7 meters tall..."
After describing the appearance of the man in the hood, she looked at the two girls expectantly.
"Have you met him? Is he from Xiahou's family?" Xuanyin continued to ask: "Who is he?"
Thirty-four and Thirty-six's eyes were still empty.
"do not know."
"Thirty-six doesn't know either."
"You're lying...you're lying..."
At this time, in another room.
"Thirty-two."
"Yes."
"Tomorrow is the day when Rahu will devour the sun again."
"I know… "
"The Night King was born on this day."
Xiahou Jiaoyan and Thirty-two sat at opposite ends of a table.
"'Night King' is dangerous to our Jaap family."
Thirty-two didn't dare to breathe.
"Mr. Xiahou... the king of the night, after all, he is from Xiahou's family, and his mother is..."
"Of course I know who his mother is. But don't forget who his father is."
Then, his hand tapped slightly on the table.
"Rahu is the star of darkness. He should not have been born."
"Mr. Xiahou, I... feel a little uncomfortable..."
Thirty-two obviously wanted to pull back, but behind him, two men in red approached him.
"'Eclipse' is coming."
Xiahou Jiaoyan approached Thirty Two.
"answer me."
"That map... who did you give it to?"
Thirty-two's complexion changed drastically!
"Xia... Mr. Xiahou, what are you talking about? How would I know?"
"Xiahou Xuanyin... If I want, I can let her go to the underworld today. Then, I will ask you again..."
"Back then, the map we got, that map... who did you give it to?"
A sharp dagger was already on Thirty-two's neck.
"I know, with your character, even if I torture you, you won't answer. You are more loyal to the clan and to the 'Night King' than a dog. But, can you just sit back and watch Xiahou Qinglian's granddaughter die?"
"That map... you can't take it away from Minshan."
"So... who did you hand it over to?"
