Jian Zhanmo fell asleep directly after entering the room, although he also rested many times on the road, but after all, he didn't rest well in the carriage, so he fell asleep directly as soon as he put his head on the pillow.

Xuanhe stood at the door of Yurong's room and kept wandering, his hand constantly raised and lowered, repeating again and again, until the door in front of him suddenly opened.

"You..."

"You..."

Xuanhe's face flushed, "You say it first." ”

Yurong raised her head and asked generously, "What are you doing here?" ”

Instead, Xuanhe continued to hesitate, and finally muttered in a mosquito-like voice, "I'll come and see you." ”

"Haha." Yurong snorted and laughed, "Then you come in." As he spoke, he leaned over and moved the door out of the way.

Xuanhe sat on the stool and looked left and right, but it was the same guest room, and he couldn't see any flowers, "That... Ancestors are not difficult for you. ”

From the time she was punished by the old ancestor to the time they set off, they didn't speak, and Xuanhe was always worried.

Yurong shook his head, the injury on his knee was inconvenient for him to see, as for the agreement of the old ancestor, there was no need to let him know, so as not to worry him.

"That's... You have a good rest, I'll go back first. Saying that, Xuanhe got up and wanted to leave, but was pressed down by Yurong with his palm.

Yurong squatted down slightly and looked at Xuanhe's eyes, "You don't have anything else to say to me?" ”

Xuanhe shook his head, and immediately nodded, "I... What should I say? ”

"You idiot." Yurong helplessly tapped his forehead with his index finger.

Yurong's fingertips were slightly cool, and this coolness penetrated into his ** through his skin, and from then on, every time he thought of Yurong, Xuanhe's forehead would feel a trace of coolness.

"What did Mr. Jane and you say?"

Xuanhe then remembered the business between them, "Mr. Jian said that he would help me defeat Heng Yi and get the position of head of the family, and..."

"What else?"

"He also said that let us have a lover and eventually become a family." After saying this, Xuanhe's face was as red as an apple.

Yurong also laughed when she heard this, "Then do you and I have a lover?" ”

"I am." Xuanhe answered honestly.

Yurong now knows that Heng Yi is arrogant and has no scheming, why would the ancestor choose him as the next head of the family, one is honest like a wood, the other is ruthless, anyway, all have no scheming, it is better to choose the ruthless one.

But what to do, she just likes this clumsy wood.

When he was five or six years old, he lied to him that there was a jade rabbit coming down at twelve o'clock in the evening, and he really didn't sleep all night to guard it, just to give her a jade rabbit she liked.

When he was seven or eight years old, he pretended to be sick and said that he had to drink human blood to recover, so he really cut his finger with a knife and gave it to her, and if it wasn't for the people who stopped him, he would have cut his artery directly.

"Hey, I'm going to sleep."

"Ahh Xuanhe immediately stood up, "Then I'll go, you have a good rest." ”

He walked towards the door as he spoke, and just stepped out of the door, and when he turned around to close the door, Yurong stood on tiptoe and lightly touched the corner of his mouth, and before he could react, the door was already closed.

Yurong leaned her back against the door, and her jade fingers gently caressed herself

The lips of the young man are warm, and there is a special tingle in the man's beard, but with the person he likes, he even feels so happy in pain.

And Xuanhe was completely stunned, the freshness of the girl had been wrapped around the tip of his nose for a long time, and he only felt that his head was dizzy, and he was not even sure if what had just happened was his imagination.

Xuanhe walked downstairs in despair, he felt that only the cold wind of the night could make him sober now, but as soon as he walked to the hall, before he opened the door of the room, a voice came from behind him, "Childe, what are you going to do?" ”

Xuanhe looked back and saw that it was the boss and the proprietress who turned out, "I want to go out for a walk, I'm sorry to disturb your rest." "At all times, Xuanhe is gentle and polite.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he heard that he was going out for a walk, the boss immediately waved his hand, "Childe, you are the first time to come to our Xinghua Village, no one in our Xinghua Village can go out at night." ”

This time, Xuanhe was curious, "Could it be that you are the same here as Xincheng, and there are female ghosts who come to ask for your life at night?" ”

The boss shook his head, "Is this the case, there are only female ghosts in Xincheng, and we can't go out at night in Xinghua Village, but it's an old rule, and it's a lesson that has been passed down from generation to generation." ”

"Oh? Why is that? Only then did Xuanhe realize that there was not even the sound of beating on the street, and the whole street was silent, not even the sound of cats meowing.

The boss saw that he didn't understand clearly, so he turned on an oil lamp and sat down and said in detail, "This is a long story, our village is called Xinghua Village, and there is no record of when this apricot blossom appeared, but I know that since the appearance of our village, there are patches of apricot blossoms around." However, this apricot blossom is fragrant during the day, but at night it kills. ”

Xuanhe listened even more confused, "Want a human life? Could it be that she will turn into a goblin? ”

"No, no, there were people who didn't believe in evil and went out at night, but without exception, their bodies would be found in the apricot blossom forest the next morning, the whole body was lost in essence and blood, the whole person was dry, only the eyes were very big, the village said that the apricot tree absorbed the essence of people, but no one knows what is going on with this kind of thing, we only know that we can't go out at night, even the animals follow this rule."

The old shopkeeper's eloquence was not good, and the story that should have been ups and downs was told by him dryly, but Xuanhe still got the most important information, the dried corpse that was sucked blood.

"Boss, have you ever seen this kind of dry corpse?"

The boss nodded, "Yes, yes, I was only twenty years old at the time, there was a drunk man in our village, one night I didn't know how to go out, the next day the whole person was wrinkled, as if he had suddenly aged a hundred years, and the skin of the centenarians in the village was not so dry." The scariest thing was his eyes, and I still feel a chill in my back when I think about it. ”

It seems to be the standard configuration of horror stories, and at this moment, the window was blown by the wind, and the boss was startled by the voice, "Sleep, sleep, little brother, you can't think about going out anymore." ”

Seeing that Xuanhe agreed, the boss went back to sleep with the oil lamp, but Xuanhe couldn't sleep curiously, this thing was really strange, even the kiss of Yurong just now couldn't affect him.

"What do you say? Is that apricot grove we passing by weird? "Lin Jingjing heard such a strange story early in the morning and heard countless versions when he was a child.

Xuanhe nodded, "Well, as long as the people who go out at night are living creatures."

, you will be attracted to the apricot forest, and the next day when you are found, your whole body will be completely lost. ”

"So people here don't go out at night?"

At this time, the boss walked in with breakfast, "Yes, there is no one in our Xinghua Village at night, but there are few people coming and going here, so few people outside know about this tradition." ”

Lin Jingjing was also very curious when he heard it, but several of them were **mortals, and no one had the courage to run out in the middle of the night to test whether this matter was true.

This is Jian Zhanmo, who has not spoken, spoke, "Let's stay for another night, let's leave tomorrow, we still have to go to the new city." ”

Speaking of Xincheng, everyone thought of the purpose of this trip, so they all nodded, "But sir, are you okay?" Wouldn't it be too much of a rush to leave tomorrow? ”

Jian Zhanmo stood up, "My injuries are almost healed, why don't I show you now?" ”

Yurong's face flushed, and she hurriedly waved her hand, "No need, no need, you said it, then we will leave tomorrow." ”

After eating lunch for a while, Jian Zhanmo clutched his stomach, "I'm going to the thatched house." ”

Lin Jingjing pinched his nose, "Oh, why did you just finish eating, let's go." Jian Zhanmo covered his stomach and walked to the thatched house in the courtyard, but as soon as he entered the thatched house, Jian Zhanmo let go of the hand covering his stomach, made sure that there was no one around, and turned over and jumped out of the wall and ran towards Xinghua Village outside the village.

To the southeast of the village is a circle of almond trees, and behind this circle of almond trees is a continuous mountain range.

Jian Zhanmo turned left and right a few times in the apricot blossom forest, and finally stopped in front of a cave, he looked around again to make sure that there was no one, and one dodged into the cave.

The path in the cave was rugged, and there were many hidden weapons, but Jian Zhanmo avoided them.

"Who is it?" A clear female voice came out.

Jian Zhanmo took out something from his body and shook it at the person inside, and the female voice inside changed from surprise to joy, "You're here!" ”

Jian Zhanmo walked in the direction where the voice came from.

Inside was a stone room, and a woman knelt on the ground, "I've seen my lord." Belongs to the next team of 20. ”

Jian Zhanmo waved her hand to get her up. "What are you doing here?"

Although the young woman had a lot of respect for Jian Zhanmo, she did not answer Jian Zhanmo's question.

Jian Zhan was indifferent, "It turned out to be a mission." That's it. As she spoke, she turned around and left, and the young woman didn't dare to stop him, but just said, "I'm sorry." ”

Jian Zhanmo left the apricot blossom forest and returned to the hotel as quickly as possible, but as soon as he arrived at the hotel, he heard Lin Jingjing's voice, "Jian Zhanmo!" Where have you been, you talk. ”

Jian Zhanmo's eyes turned and flew upward.

"What's wrong?" Then he opened the door from the second floor and looked at Lin Jingjing below with a puzzled expression.

Seeing him come out of the room, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but Lin Jingjing still felt very strange, "Why are you in the room?" ”

"I came out of the hut and went back to my room, but why weren't you in the room?" Maybe Jian Zhanmo's acting skills were too good, Lin Jingjing didn't see anything, so he could only scratch his head, "Could it be that we are on a bad track?" Forget it, it's good for you to come back anyway. ”

Lin Jingjing, who went upstairs, didn't notice that the hand that Jian Zhanmo had been holding behind his back finally relaxed.
