Following the direction of the aroma, Hou Kai came to the small door of the front yard, but what made him extremely depressed was that the small door, which was usually not locked, was locked today.
After trying to push the door open several times, Hou Kai sat on the door and panted heavily. With his current physical condition, it was a miracle just to get here, let alone open the door.
Wave after wave of dizziness invaded his brain, and Hou Kai felt that his eyelids were becoming heavier and heavier. "The past, it seems like... the past..." Hou Kai murmured in his mouth, but his eyelids were Close it slowly. Once the tight string in his mind is broken, he will probably faint immediately.
But just when his eyes were about to close, a small and exquisite bronze mirror appeared on his chest. As soon as this small bronze mirror appeared, the surrounding space gently fluctuated very regularly. This mirror was exactly ten One of the great holy weapons is the Kunlun Mirror. Hou Kai, who became a fool because of the backlash from the Witch King, naturally does not know how to use and summon the holy weapon. He was able to escape from the siege of so many people today. This is It's all thanks to the Kunlun Mirror.
The Kunlun Mirror made a soft sound, and Hou Kai quietly disappeared from the spot.
When Hou Kai was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt that the door he was leaning on disappeared. He suddenly lost his support and fell to the ground. Such a sudden change made him open his eyes in a hurry, but this time he opened his eyes. But it made him stupid. He actually entered the front yard inexplicably.
But Hou Kai did not become happy because of this. On the contrary, he suddenly squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, his expression even more frightened. At this moment, he was like a child who had done something wrong. Waiting for the punishment from adults.
In normal times, he was not allowed to enter the front yard. Otherwise, if he was discovered, Jiang Zhen would be beaten severely. In Jiang Zhen's words, the front yard was a place for receiving guests. How could a dirty animal be qualified? Enter here.
After a while, Hou Kai dared to slowly raise his head. He carefully looked around and found that there was no one else in the front yard except him. This discovery made him relieved. Because of Yue Xin's arrival, Jiang Zhen All the guards were arranged outside the house. It has to be said that Hou Kai was lucky at this moment.
After heaving a sigh of relief, the charming food fragrance once again attracted Hou Kai's sense of smell. Although he didn't know how he got there, he knew better now that he was very far away from the place where the tempting food fragrance wafted. Close.
Hou Kai stood up again and finally targeted the banquet room in the front yard. Without guards, he became bolder and walked directly to the window outside the banquet room.
Through the carved wooden window, Hou Kai saw at a glance the large table of tempting dishes in the hall. The dazzling array of food and fragrance made Hou Kai swallow his saliva. The world inside was simply a paradise for him. , but when he turned his attention to Jiang Zhen, who was sitting in the main seat, his body trembled violently involuntarily, and the joy in his eyes instantly turned into extreme fear.
Jiang Zhen's terror has been deeply imprinted in his heart. In the first few months after arriving, Hou Kai had to be hung up and beaten several times by him almost every day, and each time it was transformed into a variety of torture instruments. He was used for almost everything. The most memorable one was when he tried to escape, but was finally caught by Jiang Zhen himself. The result was that he was locked up in the basement for a whole month, and during this month, he arrived every two days. Jiang Zhen would break his leg bone once every three days, and then Jiang Zhen would treat it with medicine. When the pain subsided, he would break it again, and then apply medicine again, and so on for a whole month.
The heart-wrenching pain of a broken bone is something Hou Kai can't forget to this day. From then on, he never dared to think of escaping, and he obeyed Jiang Zhen's words even more.
Seeing Jiang Zhen inside, Hou Kai retreated in his heart. He didn't want to suffer that kind of pain again, but just when he retracted his eyes and was about to leave, a pleasant laughter caught his eyes again. , at this moment, Yue Xin was laughing at Jiang Xue, while Jiang Xue was blushing and somewhat at a loss.
Hou Kai's eyes were fixed on Yue Xin the moment he saw her, especially that face. It was obviously a face he had never seen before, but it made him feel an indescribable sense of intimacy. , seeing that smile, he seemed to feel extremely comfortable, even making him forget his fear of Jiang Zhen.
Everyone in the hall was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Miss Yue Xin, it is Xiaoxue's birthday in the middle of next month. I plan to hold a banquet at the Jiang Mansion to celebrate her properly. If Miss Yue Xin doesn't mind, I would also like to invite you over."
As soon as Yue Xin heard that Jiang Xue was celebrating her birthday, she immediately promised to come over to attend. But at this moment, she suddenly noticed a strange gaze staring at her outside the window. Yue Xin's face immediately changed and she called to the door. "Who is outside?" After saying that, without waiting for the others to react, she rushed out. The remaining dozen or so people looked at each other and finally followed Yue Xin and ran out.
When Jiang Zhen and others came out of the house, they saw Yue Xin standing at the door. Following her gaze, they saw Hou Kai, whose clothes were in tatters and his whole body was blue and purple from the cold, huddled in the corner and shivering. His face couldn't help but change at that moment. Change.
"Hey, who are you and why did you come into our house?" Jiang Xue asked aloud, but Hou Kai did not answer Jiang Xue's question. Jiang Zhen had told him that without his permission, he would never Can't talk to others.
Jiang Zhen coughed before saying, "I'm really sorry for scaring Miss Yue Xin like this. He is a beggar who often comes to my place to beg. I think the door to the backyard may not be locked, so he ran around." I hope Miss Hou will forgive me for the poor reception."
Yue Xin shook her head, then walked to Hou Kai and squatted down. Since Hou Kai was huddled together at the moment, his long hair that seemed to have become caked covered his face, so Yue Xin could not see his face. Looking at this dirty "beggar", Yue Xin's eyes were full of sympathy. He asked this "beggar", "Why don't you go level up? As long as you work hard, you don't have to live such a life." "
Seeing that Hou Kai was not going to speak, Yue Xin couldn't help but sigh. He took out a card from his backpack and handed it to Hou Kai, "Please accept this card. There are 10,000 gold coins in it. You can take it." It's like going to the auction house to buy some equipment. As long as you work hard in the future, your life will definitely be better than now."
Without Jiang Zhen's order, Hou Kai didn't dare to move. Jiang Zhen also noticed this and immediately said, "Miss Yue Xin, you'd better keep the money. Even if you give him the money, he won't know it." To use it, because he is a fool and cannot live like a normal person,"
"What should I do? He is so pitiful like this." Upon hearing that the beggar in front of her was a fool, Yue Xin felt even more pity for him.
