Jiuhua chuckled: "Don't be angry, little Xuan Diao. I'm just making a little joke with you."
Xuan Diao rolled his eyes secretly, hehe, who cares to joke with you?
"Looking at you like this, don't you like joking?" Jiuhua held his chin, looking thoughtful.
Xuan Diao put on a dead-eye look and told Jiuhua with his eyes: Nonsense!
"Okay." Jiuhua suppressed his smile and looked serious, "Then let's talk about business."
Huh? Business...what business?
Jiuhua's eyes darkened: "Have you forgotten?"
Seeing this from Jiuhua, Xuan Diao felt a little nervous in his heart, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Could it be that it really forgot something important?
"Heh." Jiuhua sneered, "How can you forget such a big thing?"
"Squeak?" Xuan Diao asked cautiously. It really couldn't remember what the big deal was!
"Then I would like to remind you." Jiuhua's red lips kissed and uttered two words, "Deal."
Hearing this, Xuan Diao froze, and he almost forgot about it.
"squeak……"
Xuan Diao opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Jiuhua.
"Why are you so anxious? I haven't finished speaking yet." Jiuhua narrowed his eyes and sneered, "You don't think there is only one serious matter, do you?"
Xuan Diao can only put on its signature smile - a silly smile.
Acting stupid on the outside but complaining on the inside.
Bad woman, can't you say the whole thing in one sentence? Isn't it interesting to say half a sentence and leave half a sentence?
Hmm? There is still business? What business?
Don't play riddles for you Mr. Diao!
Xuan Diao was going crazy.
Jiuhua looked out the door, stood up and walked out: "Take a step to talk."
So serious?
Seeing Jiuhua's behavior, Xuan Diao was so excited that he reluctantly followed him.
Seeing Xuan Diao's fearful look, Jiuhua's lips curved into a slight smile.
…
"Xuan Diao!"
The little guy screamed and suddenly woke up from his dream.
There was no one else in the room except her, and it was extremely quiet; the sunlight outside the room shed a soft light through the leaf-veined windows, reflecting the emerald green color of the room, exuding tranquility.
But none of these could calm the little one. She felt very panicked, as if she was about to lose something important.
She wiped the fine cold sweat on her forehead, got up and walked out hurriedly.
Xuan Diao...Xuan Diao, where are you?
The little guy was looking around in the courtyard.
No...no...
She searched the small courtyard but could not find Xuan Diao.
"Little guy?"
Jiuhua leaned against the window and only had time to call out softly before the little guy disappeared.
The little guy skillfully shuttled between the trees, as fast as the wind, turning his shadow into a broken body.
Xuan Diao was not in the small courtyard, so the only place she could think of was that place.
Soon, the little guy's field of vision widened, and an open area appeared in front of him. What came into view was the tall ancient tree that could be surrounded by twenty adults. The bottom was formed by the strong root system of the ancient tree and the inside of the wooden body.
Natural tree hole.
The moment he looked at the entrance of the hole, the little guy's pupils tightened and his mind went blank.
"Xuan Diao! No..."
There are several long marks outside the tree hole, like drag marks. The fragments of soil are mixed with black hair and blood. The long marks extend to the entrance of the hole, covered by a large area of bright red...
The little guy was trembling all over and staggered towards the tree hole filled with the smell of blood.
In the dim tree hole, a thin body can be clearly seen.
The black hair on the body is sparse, and the exposed flesh is covered with blisters, many of which have burst. The wounds are mixed with mud and weeds, and the remaining hair is stuck together in a mess. It no longer looks as smooth as before...
…
The little guy recognized it, it was a burn...
In an instant, the scene in the fantasy world and the picture in front of me overlapped.
Real? Fake?
The little guy was in a trance, she didn't know...
The body seemed to be no longer hers. The little one didn't know how she came to that scarred body. She looked at Xuan Diao, who had been covered in burns, and her body trembled unconsciously.
Xuan Diao... is dead? Really?
She put her hand under Xuan Diao's nose, holding on to slim hope.
No breath...
Her legs were a little weak, and the little girl couldn't hold herself up and sat down on the ground. Her usually straight back now became rickety, and the scattered hair on her forehead covered her eyes, covering up the emotions in her eyes.
The little guy pursed his lips and opened his mouth to say something, but he could only squeeze out a broken sob from his throat.
A bottle of potion that looked like scattered starlight appeared in the little guy's hand. She didn't speak, and the surroundings became extremely quiet.
The medicine was sprinkled on the broken body, and her young hands carefully washed away the blood on the fur, just as gently as when she comforted Xuan Mink. She knew that Xuan Mink was afraid of pain, and she also knew that it was a mink that only loved to be clean.
I definitely can't stand how dirty I look.
One bottle...two bottles...
Until all the blood stains were washed away from the thin body, the bright red seeped into the damp earth beneath him, and the bitter smell of vegetation covered up the pungent blood.
The little guy held the black mink in his arms and stroked its sparse hair over and over again.
Still at this moment, despair and loneliness become eternity...
When Jiuhua came, he saw this scene.
The thin girl huddled in the dark tree hole, her behavior was sluggish, and she held a cold corpse in her arms. The darkness became her best protective color. She couldn't see her expression clearly. She just looked at her over and over again, tirelessly.
Stroking the back of the corpse in his arms.
She obviously didn't cry, but anyone could feel her pain, as if the whole world had fallen into boundless darkness, with no more light and no hope of life...
Jiuhua's face darkened. She approached the little guy and tried to wake her up: "Little guy!"
It's like you haven't heard of it.
"Little guy, wake up, don't do anything stupid!"
The little guy still repeated the previous actions.
"Little guy!"
Feeling that the little guy's breath was getting weaker and weaker, Jiuhua was a little anxious. Her eyes fell on the body that the little guy was holding, and she dragged it with her hands.
The moment the body moved in her arms, the little one's movements suddenly changed. She tightly hugged the body that was about to leave her, mumbling something in her mouth.
Although the voice was very weak, Jiuhua heard it.
"No...don't..."
The tone was erratic, with a bit of pleading...
Jiuhua didn't relent, she pulled hard and pulled the scarred body out of the little guy's arms.
The little guy's eyes changed. She suddenly raised her head, stared at Jiuhua, and screamed in a hoarse voice: "Give it back to me!"
She was like a wild beast, rushing towards Jiuhua on all fours, trying to take back what belonged to her!
Jiuhua turned slightly sideways to avoid the little guy's attack.
"Little guy, calm down!"
At this time, the little guy couldn't hear what she said at all. She only knew that the woman in front of her had taken away her Xuan Diao!
There was a voice in my mind that kept shouting: Kill her! Kill her! She was the one who took Xuan Diao away! Everyone who tried to separate her from Xuan Diao deserved to die! All deserved to die!
The little guy steadied himself and let out a threatening grunt from his throat. Her eyes were as cold as a knife: "Did you do it?"
The voice in my mind is shouting crazily: It was her, she killed Xuan Diao! Do you remember? What she said when you were sleeping... Deal! Deal! She did it, it must be her!
"What?" Jiuhua didn't know why.
"Jiuhua, it was you who killed Xuan Diao!" The little guy's eyes turned red, and the raging murderous intention spread around her. At this time, she was like a beast that chose people to devour, "I want you to pay for it with your life!"
Jiuhua looked at the black energy surrounding the little guy with a solemn expression.
