028 Mistakenly provoked the secret palace, sneak attack in the middle of the night! (8)
Before time travel, Leng Ning, an orphan, had been alone with no relatives or friends. She did not want her son to follow in her footsteps, and she had been working hard to give him a stable life over the years.
Although he moved frequently before, Tianci was still young and did not know the concept of friends. Even the occasional sadness would soon be diluted by the novelty brought by the new environment. Now that he has turned six years old, this is the first time he has made friends.
My friend, after leaving, there is almost no possibility of returning to Niujia Village in the future. How could she bear to let him leave like this with regret.
Looking sideways at the night outside the window, Leng Ning smiled and nodded to him, "Okay, then early tomorrow morning, you go say goodbye to Sister Qing'er, and we will leave!"
"Thank you, mother!" Tianci received Leng Ning's permission, and his face immediately showed joy, and he hugged her neck and kissed her repeatedly.
"Okay, kiss me all over my face!" Leng Ning smiled and pinched his little face, "Go, wash your hands, and I'll heat up the buns I bought!"
The couple ate meat buns and drank some leftover soup from the morning. Leng Ning rushed Tianci to bed while he packed his luggage carefully. Tianci was still a child after all, and at first he was lying on the bed watching her do this and that.
Soon he fell into a deep sleep.
A few sets of clothes, bows and arrows, daggers, silver coins, dry food bought in the town and medicines collected over the years... Leng Ning's luggage was simple and light.
Putting the prepared luggage on the table, she put the jade token that Lin Feng gave her into her pocket. Leng Ning undressed and lay down next to Tianci. She closed her eyes but didn't really sleep. She just closed her eyes to relax and a pair of ears.
Carefully capture all the movements outside the window.
God can sleep, so how can she dare to sleep?!
Time passed slowly, and towards the middle of the night, sleepiness came uninvited. Leng Ning was about to get up and stretch his muscles to dispel the sleepiness, when a slight sound suddenly came from the roof tiles above his head.
Then, there was no more sound.
Leng Ning's hand holding the dagger instinctively tightened, and she got out of bed silently. She crooked her arms to pick up Tianci on the bed, and carefully placed him on the ground under the bed, while she herself shrank into the corner next to the window, holding her breath.
.
Outside the window, everything was quiet, even the insects stopped humming.
Leng Ning knew that the cat on the top of the bed was not a cat. Cats don't have such patience for so long...
