"Why is it so different from the first time you came to Jie Xige?"

Although his speech was still unclear, he could hear it clearly in Mingchuan's ears.

He recalled what he said to Ming Huaying at that time. Although he knew that it was not sincere, would Ming Huaying feel uncomfortable when he heard it?

Ji Huatao didn't hear the answer and didn't ask. He opened his mouth and took a breath to let the short-term cool air enter his mouth. He said to himself: "The first time I saw you, I wanted to beat you. Do you know why?"

"Why?"

"At that time, I had just thrown away a bad man, and you came to let Ah Ying go home to get married. It was for your family, no, because of your affairs." Ji Huatao frowned and smelled the ointment, and felt that there was something in his mouth. It was painful, "If I hadn't seen that you are Aying's brother, I would have beaten you into a pig's head."

"I am sorry."

Ji Huatao waved his hand: "I have forgotten what you said to me. You should apologize to your sister. I saw that she felt very uncomfortable after you left that day."

Mingchuan lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I told her, but I think my sister must still feel very uncomfortable. I don't know what to do and can only listen to her."

Ji Huatao rolled his eyes, approached him and whispered, "I can teach you."

Mingchuan straightened up and calmed down, then picked up the books on the table and said, "Miss Ji, don't have any other ideas. My sister told me that girls have a lot of things on their mind, so I should be careful when dealing with them."

This series of expression changes and movements made Ji Huatao dumbfounded.

She should have guessed a long time ago that the whole family knows how stupid Hua Ying's younger brother can be.

He snorted without saying anything and got up and walked around the yard.

His footsteps once again avoided the stones on the ground. Pei Zhen scolded the other party in his heart, doesn't this family clean up the yard?

Along the way, there were countless stones on the ground ranging from small to large, and there were also small clods of soil scattered in every corner.

Following the people in front of me, I came to a remote place. From the surrounding environment, I guessed that this should be the garden at the back.

But I don’t know if it’s because the family is lazy. There is only a large open space and a well here.

Xiaofeng listened intently to the movements in the well and gestured to them.

Pei Zhen looked frightened. Do you want to go down? It's so high.

Just as he took a step forward, his arm was grabbed by someone beside him, and he whispered in his ear: "Stay here and hide."

Pei Zhen is very self-aware, and he still understands the principle of staying away if he is not capable enough.

He patted Xu Suiran's shoulder to reassure him, and then watched them go down cautiously.

The ground is even cooler, and the surrounding darkness makes it difficult to tell the direction.Xiaofeng felt that she had walked for a long time, and that there was no end to the long journey.

When a bright light appeared in front of her, she ran forward hopefully, but all she could see was a young girl lying on the ground reaching out to her.

The girl's clothes were in a mess, and her face was obviously scarred, but at this moment, she smiled at her, as if to comfort her.

But she didn't seem to know that there was a person whose face he couldn't see clearly standing behind her, walking towards her step by step.

Xiaofeng was shivering all over. He tried all his strength but couldn't move forward. The words he opened his mouth turned into silent words.

She covered her ears and shouted desperately. The darkness around her was being swallowed up bit by bit, and bright light spread over her.

"breeze."

Ming Huaying wrung out the handkerchief, opened the tightly held hand of the person on the bed, and wiped it carefully.

"Xiaofeng hasn't woken up yet?" Ji Huatao asked as soon as he entered the door, holding a bowl of black stuff in his hand.

Ming Huaying shook her head and put the handkerchief into the basin, then took the bowl and put it aside.

"I've been sleeping all day." Ming Huaying's voice was filled with self-blame. Xiaofeng had been feeling strange since he came out of the yard. Xiaofeng collapsed after they returned to Mingchuan's house together.

Ji Huatao sat next to her and comforted: "Didn't the doctor say that Xiaofeng was frightened? Maybe he hasn't had a good rest recently. He should take a nap to make up for it."

"Let's go out and talk."

The door was gently closed. There was a tear in the corner of the person's eye on the bed, and his bloodless lips opened softly: "Thank you."

Business in Jie Xige was not very good today. Mingchuan packed up the things on the shelves and carefully put them back into their places.

Hearing some movement behind him, he turned around to look, smiled and said, "Sister."

Ming Huaying nodded and responded with a smile, and sat down in the corner with Ji Huatao.

"What happened yesterday? Did you see something?"

Ji Huatao held back all night before saying what she wanted to ask. She could guess that they found something unusual, but as soon as Xiaofeng fainted, she threw all these questions behind her.

"A very scary thing." Ming Huaying lowered her eyes and looked at her hands on the table.

"Pei Zhen said before that several children were lost in Baiye Village. Do you still remember?"

Ji Huatao thought about it and nodded: "Remember, the day of the Heming Meeting."

She boldly thought about it again, took a deep breath and looked around: "Mingchuan said he heard subtle cries, it couldn't be these children, right?"

She stared closely at Ming Huaying, who nodded slowly under her gaze.

Ji Huatao opened his mouth, stood up and walked around, talking nonstop, and finally looked at Ming Huaying: "Whose family is that yard? I'll pick him up."

The gloomy atmosphere was broken. Ming Huaying pulled her funny and said, "Pei Zhen has brought someone to pick it up. You can ask him later."

Ji Huatao calmed down and asked her: "How are those children...?"

Ming Huaying shook her head: "We didn't dare to take a closer look. When we found this place, we quickly came out and asked Xu Suiran to go back and take the people. Otherwise, if we arrest people in private without counting them, they might be beaten up."

"Logically speaking, there should be results after one night." Ji Huatao walked to the door to see if anyone was coming, but kept talking, "These people who work under the government really have a hard life. They can't sleep all night. They have to I fainted from overexertion within a few days of working.”

Ming Huaying was curious as she listened to her constant thoughts: "Why are you so talkative even after being burned?"

She had never seen anyone who could speak better than Ji Huatao. If there was a competition, only Pei Zhen could try.

Pei Zhen is different. He can think of many weird stories to tell. If it makes him angry, he can tell the other person into the story and curse them in a roundabout way.

"Because A Tao can't stay idle."

When Ji Huatao heard this and turned around before answering, he saw a person coming out of the door leading to the backyard. Although his face was pale and his lips were white, his body still needed to be supported by the door frame.

But those eyes looked at them with a smile and full of vitality.
