The importance of cannon fodder

Chapter 349 Commander (Twenty)
"Thank you, Mr. Shen." Princess Xiaoqi blushed, saying that men and women could not tell each other clearly, but Mr. Shen touched her back just now, and he was very concerned about her just now.

"It's easy to do." Shen Lian said softly, looking at Princess Xiaoqi's pink face.

"Big brother, Jiu Yao is not feeling well either." Jiu Yao tugged at the corner of Shen Lian's clothes.

"En?" Shen Lian turned her head and saw Jiu Yao lowered her head and pouted her pink mouth, looking unhappy.

"Where is Jiu Yao uncomfortable?" He put Jiu Yao on his lap again.

"It's just uncomfortable." Jiu Yao didn't know why, she just wanted to say that she was uncomfortable.

"Sister, isn't it okay? After we get off the boat, let's go to the clinic first." Princess Xiaoqi blushed and said understandingly.

"I smell vinegar." Shen Lian approached Jiu Yao's ear and said in a very low voice.

?After hearing this sentence, Jiu Yao blinked. Was she jealous just now?
Jiu Yao has several fathers, although none of them are her real fathers, but mother likes them very much, but sometimes mother stays with one father for a long time, other fathers will be unhappy, when Jiu Yao was a child I often heard my mother talking about it, but I didn't expect this group of men to be jealous even more annoying.

Seeing such an ignorant Jiu Yao, Shen Lian couldn't help pinching her little face.

However, when she saw Princess Xiaoqi's eyes full of love, Shen Lian sighed again in her heart. After all, she owed you too much.

After getting off the boat, Princess Xiaoqi let the group of young masters and ladies who kept flattering behind her go to play by themselves, while she followed behind Shen Lian without even bringing a maid.

Of course, she didn't tell Shen Lian that she let them go, she came back alone, "Mr. Shen, they want to play by themselves, but I want to follow you, so—"

"Well, it's just the three of us. I've been to Yangzhou, so I can take you to play." Shen Lian saw through Princess Xiaoqi's thoughts at a glance, but he didn't see through her either.

Jiu Yao was hostile to Xiao Qi at the beginning, but after getting in touch, the two of them played together and ran in front of Shen Lian.

Jiu Yao doesn't hate Xiao Qi, on the contrary, she feels more and more that Xiao Qi is very similar to her.

"Shen Lian, we want to eat candied haws." After Xiaoqi and Shen Lian got acquainted, they no longer called Shen Lian Mr. Shen politely, but called him by his first name.

"En." Shen Lian nodded, walked over, and took out a piece of silver from her purse, "Two bunches of candied haws."

After receiving the candied haws from the small vendor, each of them gave a bunch.

"Thank you, big brother." Jiu Yao took the candied haws, and while Shen Lian was bending over, she tiptoed and kissed Shen Lian.

Xiao Qi also went crazy, and kissed Shen Lian on the right side of Shen Lian, "Thank you."

There are also many small vendors in Yangzhou, and the streets are more lively than the place Jiu Yao went to before.

There are also a lot of masks. Xiaoqi stopped in front of a mask stand, "You all have one, and I want one too."

"I'll pick one for you, little sister Qi." Jiu Yao said enthusiastically.

"What do you think of this?" Jiu Yao picked up a mask with pink petals.

"It's not pretty." Xiao Qi shook her head.

"What about this one?" Jiu Yao picked another one.

Xiao Qi still shook his head.

"How about this?" On the side, Shen Lian picked up a silver-white simple and delicate mask in his hand. Looking carefully, this mask was very similar to the mask on his face, and the style was also very similar to the one Shen Lian had chosen for Jiu Yao before. .

"Well, this one looks good." Xiao Qi took the mask from Shen Lian with a blushing face.

She put the mask on her face and compared the size, it just fit.

"Do you want to try it on?" Shen Lian asked.

"En." Xiao Qi nodded.

Shen Lian's white fingertips picked up the rope from her slender neck and tied it on her.

The Nine Demons also took out their masks, looking like a trio of masks.

On this day, Jiu Yao and Xiao Qi played crazy, they ran around, and they were already very hungry by the time they had dinner.

Xiao Qi had never felt so happy before, the dinner was very sumptuous, but Xiao Qi didn't just eat a little, she ate a lot with Jiu Yao.

At night, Jiu Yao and Xiao Qi sleep in the same room, while Shen Lian lives next door.

Jiu Yao and Xiao Qi are lying on the same bed. Although the age gap between Jiu Yao and Xiao Qi looks like seven or eight years old, Xiao Qi feels that Jiu Yao is different from other seven or eight-year-old children. Like those little followers who just cry.

They chatted and talked a lot about themselves.

But neither of them mentioned Shen Lian.

It wasn't until very late that the two of them fell asleep drowsily.

Unexpectedly, both of them had a dream.

In the dream, Nine Demons\Xiao Qi dreamed of Shen Lian, he was dressed in white, in Xiao Qi's dream, he said to Xiao Qi: "Xiao Qi, would you like to come with me?"

And in Jiu Yao's dream, he also said the same thing to Jiu Yao.

"Where are you going? Big brother?" Jiu Yao rubbed his eyes and asked.

"Come with me and you'll find out." The elder brother smiled, standing between the rocks, with a bright white moon behind him, illuminating him as if radiating light.

"En." Jiu Yao walked forward slowly while holding his hand.

And Xiao Qi was also held by him.

At this time, Xiao Qi saw Nine Demons.

They stood opposite each other.

"Little Seven?"

"Nine demons?"

The two looked at each other at the same time.

"Big Brother, where are we?" Jiu Yao looked up at Big Brother.

At this time, I found out that there is no big brother.

There is nothing, only they are together, and that round of bright white moon is not a bright moon at all, exuding black devilish energy at this moment.

So, where exactly is this place?
"Xiao Qi, are you real?" Jiu Yao looked at Xiao Qi opposite and asked tentatively.

"Nine Yao, I think this place is really scary." When Xiao Qi suddenly saw clearly what was under her feet, she was so frightened that she almost screamed.

At the feet were the broken bones of some corpses.

"What is this place? Why are we here, aren't we sleeping?"

"Hahaha, yes, you are indeed sleeping." Suddenly a piercing voice broke the tranquility of this eerie place.

"Who are you?" Jiu Yao saw the demon energy on the moon, and she thought it must be a demon.

Could it be the devil who sucked up that uncle candied haws before?

"Hello, little girl, I am Nightmare." A cloud of black air floated out from the moon.

"Nightmare?" Jiu Yao stared blankly at the cloud of black gas, "Can I eat it?"

"Little ghost, do you think I can eat it?" The cloud of black air seemed to be about to die of laughter at this childish question.

"I don't think so." Xiao Qi shook his head.

"But why do I feel hungry." Jiu Yao looked at the cloud of devilish energy, but felt hungry.

"What you said made me feel a little too." Xiao Qi also nodded.

The two looked at the cloud of black air at the same time.
