Not only could they not get any information, but they were treated like monsters.
Therefore, although Chen Xi now heard that Han Ruoshui knew some magic from the ancient witch clan, she still chose to hide it for the sake of safety.
She thought, since the people here can use ancient witchcraft, then maybe Blackwater Bay is nearby. Why don't they go into the town to check it out?
When she met Feng Qingyang's gaze, she saw that he had the same intention in his eyes.
Chen Xi took a step forward, helped Han Ruoshui up from the ground, and said with a smile: "Miss Ruoshui, get up!
I don’t dare to act like a cow or a horse to serve us! However, if you can trust me, then be my friend!”
"Friend? Can I?"
It seemed that this was the first time Han Ruoshui heard that a woman wanted to be friends with her. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears and her expression was excited.
Chen Xi nodded: "Of course you can! It's a great honor for me, Xi'er, to be friends with such a beautiful woman like you! But... Ruoshui, we want to go to Wulu Town, do you want to go with us?"
"Go back? I..."
When Han Ruoshui heard this, she panicked. Perhaps she remembered the misery of being ostracized before, and she subconsciously shook her head: "No, I can't go back."
"Why?"
"They will burn me to death! Madam, everyone in this town thinks I am a witch, and they will burn me to death if they catch me! None of them believe that I did not kill Yuan Wai Li!"
"Since it's not the case, then you should go back and clear your name! If you run away for the rest of your life, won't you be burdened with a lifetime of infamy?
Ruoshui, think about your father's death, don't you feel aggrieved and unjust?
Are you really willing to be cornered by them?"
"But, I..."
Han Ruoshui shook his head helplessly. She was just a little ant, how could she turn the tide?
No, she didn't have the courage to go back and face those terrifying faces, nor was she sure she could escape from the paws of those jackals who coveted her beauty!
She doesn't want to be burned to death, nor does she want to be any man's caged bird.
Chen Xi held her hand and encouraged her: "Don't worry, justice is in the heart. Since you didn't kill the person, you should go back openly, clear your name, and tell them that you, Han Ruoshui, are not a witch, but you are not a witch.
Not someone to be bullied!"
"..." Han Ruoshui looked intently at Chen Xi's confident eyes. To be honest, Chen Xi's words moved her.
She also didn't want to bear the reputation of absconding for the rest of her life. She also wanted to avenge his father!
But...can she really resist and resist that terrible woman?
"Ruoshui, don't you want to avenge your father?"
"I……"
After pondering for a moment, she mustered up her greatest courage and nodded to Chen Xi: "Okay! I'll go back with you! No matter what the outcome is, at least I have to try hard!"
"Um!"
Chen Xi nodded with satisfaction.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her slightly pale face. Chen Xi's body swayed, and she couldn't help holding her forehead because of the dark dizziness.
"Xi'er, sit down!"
Feng Qingyang supported her and pulled her back to sit on the wicker chair.
Chen Xi smiled softly: "I'm fine, maybe I'm too hungry!"
"..." Feng Qingyang looked helplessly into her pitiful eyes, knowing in her heart that Chen Xi was avoiding the most important things just to avoid worrying him.
He tapped Chen Xi's pretty nose and said dotingly: "You, you lazy idiot!" He turned around and went to get the grilled fish for Chen Xi.
Han Ruoshui watched the interaction between Chen Xi and Feng Qingyang, and couldn't hide the light of envy in her beautiful eyes.
Once upon a time, she, like other young girls in love, had dreams and longed for a beautiful love, but it was a pity...
Her hand slowly touched the cheek that could be broken by blows. Unfortunately, because of this sensational skin, all she had was endless trouble...
"Ruoshui, are you hungry too? Give me?"
Feng Qingyang handed a grilled fish to Chen Xi, and Chen Xi handed it to Han Ruoshui, who could not hide his melancholy.
Han Ruoshui looked at the fragrant grilled fish, then looked at Chen Xi's smiling face, and two lines of crystal tears fell down her cheeks.
I feel pity for the pear blossoms with the rain.
"What's wrong?" Chen Xi frowned.
Han Ruoshui hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and when she saw Feng Qingyang looking over, she said hoarsely: "It's okay, Ruoshui just thinks that Madam, you are such a nice person!"
"Since you think I'm a very nice person, then don't call me madam! I feel like you're calling me old!"
Chen Xi joked with a smile, his bright smile adding a lot of luster to his pale face.
Han Ruoshui looked at her blankly and was unknowingly infected by Chen Xi's smile.
Suddenly I felt that the lady in front of me was actually much more beautiful than me!
"Come and sit here! By the way, would you like to tell us about what's going on in Black Green Town? I'm curious about what a town where everyone knows witchcraft would look like!"
Chen Xi invited Han Ruoshui to sit next to her, while quietly asking her for the news she wanted.
Han Ruoshui pursed her lips, gathered her thoughts and began to speak in detail...
…
"The witch is back?"
"It's not good! It's not good! The witch is back, everyone, come out quickly! Everyone, come and catch the witch!"
The moon was shining brightly, and on the ancient bluestone road, a woman hurriedly ran toward the town.
As she shouted, the closed wooden doors opened one after another.
The women poked their heads out of the house in horror, with a look of vigilance on their faces.
The men also poked their heads out of the room, their expectant eyes glowing with a numbing green light.
Among thousands of pairs of eyes with different expressions, Feng Qingyang and others stepped into everyone's sight step by step.
The woman standing on his right was none other than Han Ruoshui, who was dubbed a witch in the dark green town.
When she saw that everyone was still looking at her with malicious eyes, her steps stopped and she hesitated.
On Feng Qingyang's left side, Chen Xi held Xiao Qiansi's hand and looked at the complicated and changeable eyes in front of him with a smile on his lips.
Han Ruoshui was right. The folk customs in this small town were simple. After dinner, everyone closed their homes early and planned to rest.
If they hadn't happened to meet a woman who had come out to practice magic in the dark when they came in, perhaps no one would have known of their arrival.
Thanks to the woman's big mouth, the quiet town suddenly exploded.
"Witch, how dare you come back!"
The women recovered from the surprise that Feng Qingyang brought them, and immediately rushed to Han Ruoshui with fierce looks. Some were holding brooms, and some were holding hoes. They all looked like they were seeing the enemy who killed their father.
I wish I could cut Han Ruoshui into eighteen pieces.
"Aunt Li, Aunt Su...I am not a witch..."
Han Ruoshui took a few steps back weakly, closing her eyes and waiting for the familiar noise.
