Mo Chen didn't need to pay attention, his senses became more acute day by day, allowing him to easily hear any slight movement in the manor. The guests murmured uneasily, someone opened the door and poured water outside, and the firewood for the stove under the kitchen crackled in the flames.
On him, the human part has been peeled off layer by layer, until now, Mo Chen feels that he is just wearing the same skin as others, and the inside is completely different.
After recovering the previous memory, he also fully understood the indifference of Guzhu Wu. Guzhu Wu knew that his son was dead before he disappeared, and no matter who this Mo Chen is still alive, he is not his son.
Xiaodong made great progress today, no longer dozed off - but was a little drowsy from being soaked in spring water, in order to refresh himself, he chatted with Mo Chen without saying a word. It's really small talk, just ask wherever you think of, and then cheer up and listen to Mo Chen answering his questions. Probably because he is indeed short-sighted, but there is no senior brother who can't answer what he wants to ask.
An hour was approaching, Xiaodong raised his hand to have a look, his fingers were a little wrinkled.
"Shall we go back?"
Or go back and be more at ease. Ever since he hit Tianjian City, Xiaodong was always worried that he would change places from time to time, so he ran thousands of miles away involuntarily. Not to mention the thrilling adventure last time, the elder brother also made him suffer, and the master followed him to the danger, the spiritual power was consumed so much that almost everyone died together.
This kind of thing once is enough, and it must not happen again.
In the end, Mo Chen asked what he was worried about, and said with a smile: "You think too much, this matter probably won't happen again."
"Why?"
He can't even guarantee it himself, why should the senior brother guarantee it
Although he was skeptical, but if... if what the elder brother said was true, that would be great!
Xiaodong knows that his talent is very rare, very rare, it may be the only one in this world. But he doesn't know what is the use of this talent--it seems to be just a nuisance so far.
Such talent is worse than none.
Mo Chen smiled, motioned Xiaodong to sit down, combed his damp hair for him, and then picked up the light blue ring usually used by Huiliu Mountain disciples to tie it up for him. When he let go, the last trace of moisture on Xiaodong's hair had disappeared, and the hair became smooth and smooth, neat and tidy.
"I also help senior brother..."
But Mo Chen's hair was not messed up, so Xiaodong changed his words when he got to his lips: "I'll help senior brother tie his boots."
"Forget it, do you want to tie my feet together again?"
Xiaodong is sincere this time, not trying to play tricks.
Mo Chen didn't let Zhen squat down, and gave him a hand: "Go, I'll take you to meet someone."
Xiaodong didn't know who the senior brother took him to meet, so he didn't ask too much, anyway, he just followed the senior brother, and the senior brother would never take him to sell him.
After coming to Xiejiazhuang for a few days, Xiaodong hadn’t actually visited. At this moment, seeing the senior brother turn and cross the alley without hesitation, the road seems to be very familiar.
I haven't seen my brother come out to visit friends in the past two days, why is the road so familiar
There are many guest houses in Xiejiazhuang, one after another. These courtyards are all the same size and shape, and there is no name and surname posted on the front of the door. If you really want to find someone in these courtyards, it is like walking in a maze. Difficult to remember directions.
Mo Chen stopped in front of a courtyard door in the middle, stretched out his hand and pushed the door.
The door has no bar, but is only half-closed, and it opens with a push.
"Come in."
Eldest brother, who are you looking for
This yard is no different from other yards at first glance. In the yard there are not very tall dwarf pines, and there are winter jasmine flowers along the wall. between the leaves.
But as soon as Xiaodong came in, he felt something was wrong.
This yard...the lights on the windows are also on, indicating that there are people in the house. But it was very quiet here, they came in without saying hello, and it was as if the people in the room didn't hear anything, and there was no movement.
More than quiet.
Xiaodong even felt that as soon as he walked into the courtyard, there was an invisible weight covering his body. The wind in this courtyard seemed to be suffocated, and even the flowers and plants were as lifeless as dead objects.
What is the identity of the people living in this yard
He was puzzled in his heart when the people in the room finally came out to greet him.
The man stood at the door of the house, his face could not be seen clearly because of the backlight, but this figure... this...
Xiaodong pursed her lips tightly, looked at the person standing in front of the door, and then turned to look at senior brother.
He suspected that he was wrong.
But as soon as the person standing at the door made a sound, Xiaodong knew that he was not blind.
"Eldest senior brother, junior junior brother, don't come here unharmed."
Xiaodong was so shocked that he stuttered: "Master, Senior Sister?"
He looked at the familiar person in front of the door just now, he seemed to be Senior Sister Linglong. But why did Senior Sister appear here? Coupled with the weird atmosphere in the courtyard, it really doesn't look like a kind person.
Xiaodong secretly guessed in his heart, and even a little convinced that the person staying in this yard might be someone who sneaked into Xie's village with ulterior motives and caused trouble. The senior brother brought him here to solve problems for Master Xie and Master. . How could he have thought that the person in this yard would be Senior Sister Linglong!
The master asked people to inquire and search, but there was no news. The senior sister had completely cut off contact with them since she left, and she didn't send back a single word. Now she has arrived so close to them without making a sound!
"Senior Sister?" Xiaodong was completely dumbfounded.
Linglong turned sideways slightly, and said softly, "Elder brother, younger brother, come in and talk."
Xiaodong moved hesitantly.
Why did Senior Sister Linglong come here? How did the elder brother know? When they met each other, why didn't they look surprised
Could it be that the senior brother and the senior sister have been in contact
No, this Xiaodong can be sure. Eldest brother would not lie to him, when he mentioned Linglong a few days ago, he also said that her whereabouts were unknown, so it can be seen that elder brother definitely did not know where she was at that time.
It should be... I just found out not long ago, right
There is a lamp in the room, which is brighter than the outside, Xiaodong keeps staring at Linglong.
The senior sister has lost weight and looks bad, very bad.
It turned out that the senior sister is such a high-spirited person, with a ruddy and full face. Now her face is pale, her cheeks are sunken, her body is thin, and the thin bones can be seen protruding from her shoulders.
The time of parting was obviously not too long, but it felt... as if we hadn't seen each other for a long, long time, and the familiar feeling of the past was gone.
Senior sister is here, what about senior brother Zhai? Where is he? Senior Sister Linglong, why did she appear here
"Brother, please sit down." (to be continued)
