At this moment, Yuxiu just wanted to borrow what Huaishan said about her master - what should come will still come.

How long has passed, and Huaishan is going to settle accounts with him.

Yuxiu followed the second senior brother to the side room, and saw two servants setting up lunch, Huai Shan and senior senior brother were already sitting at the dining table.

Yuxiu and the second senior brother shouted "Master" in unison, seeing Huaishan nodded to them, they sat down one after another.

Lunch is five dishes and one soup, which is very hearty.

Yuxiu was holding the bowl and chopsticks, and was sitting facing Huaishan. Even if he didn't look up, he could still feel Huaishan's vague gaze passing by him from time to time. The senior and second senior brothers seemed to be more silent than before .

For a while, only the sound of chopsticks touching the dishes and the occasional swallowing sound could be heard on the dining table.

It stands to reason that under such circumstances, Yuxiu should have no appetite, but he was really hungry, he ate a few mouthfuls of dry food yesterday, and he didn't have breakfast today. I ate three bowls of rice in one go.

As soon as he put down the bowl and chopsticks, he heard Huai Shan say in a rare and gentle tone: "Is that enough? Do you want to eat more?"

Yuxiu hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Then I'll add some more rice."

Then he added another half bowl of rice.

Huai Shan and the two senior brothers had already finished eating, they didn't rush, they just watched Yu Xiu eat quietly.

After Yuxiu was full, Huaishan ordered his senior brother and second senior brother to clean up the dishes, and he called the rest of Yuxiu into the room.

Yuxiu didn't know what was going to happen next, so she followed Huaishan into the house uneasily.

Huaishan's expression looked very peaceful, even a little kind, he sat on the chair and waved his hand to signal Yuxiu to sit too.

Yuxiu moved over carefully.

Huaishan watched him sit down, as if recalling some past events, and said with emotion: "I still remember when I first picked you up, you were just a little one, I didn't expect that more than ten years later, you are now 16 years old. "

Although Yuxiu found out from the second senior brother that the three of them were all abandoned babies picked up by Huai Shan, but he didn't know too many details, so he could only choose to keep his mouth shut at this moment.

Too much to say and so many mistakes, what if she is exposed in front of Huaishan.

So Yuxiu looked at her nose and mouth with concern, obediently waiting for Huaishan's next words.

Sure enough, after talking about the past for a while, Huai Shan suddenly looked away and said, "Go back and pack your things."

Yuxiu was startled and frightened: "Master?!"

Huaishan, does this mean to drive him away?

But he has no place to stand in Qinghuai City, and there are so many monsters outside Qinghuai City, if Huaishan didn't take him in, he wouldn't even have the ability to survive in this troubled world.

Thinking of the monster who followed them all the way before, Yuxiu's face turned pale, he couldn't calm down anymore, he stood up suddenly: "Master, I was wrong, I didn't do it on purpose last night, I thought that person was The second senior brother just walked over...Master, can you give me a chance to redeem my sin?"

"This is the opportunity I gave you." Huai Shan said, "Go and pack your things, someone will take you there later."

"Master!"

"Remember, take good care of the evil god and satisfy all his requirements within the scope of your ability. If you encounter problems that are difficult to solve, come to me again."

"Master!" Yuxiu howled halfway, then her voice paused, "...Huh?"

He reacted belatedly——

Serving the evil god?

So Huaishan didn't want to drive him away, but just wanted him to serve the evil god who frightened him last night?

Yuxiu breathed a sigh of relief, but as soon as he let it go, he suddenly realized something, and the breath he let go suddenly came to his throat again.

Eh, no...why do you want him to take care of the evil god?

That evil god is really scary, and the place where he lives is also very evil. Even the Jiang family who enshrine the evil god are so afraid of the evil god.

Huaishan saw Yuxiu froze in place with a pale face, and still felt sorry for this little apprentice, but what had been decided could not be changed, no matter how hard he couldn't bear it, he had no choice but to harden his heart: "This is the first time the evil god has appeared. I chose you, maybe this is your destiny, go."

Yuxiu: "..."

He opened his mouth, and subconsciously wanted to say some words of begging for mercy, but Huaishan's firm eyes made him swallow those words abruptly.

Although he hasn't been with Huaishan for a long time, he also understands Huaishan's character. I'm afraid that even if he wears out his lips here, Huaishan will not change his decision easily.

But he still wants to know one thing: "Master, why did the evil god choose me?"

In the past, the little monk came so many times that nothing happened, but something happened to him the first time he came, which made him have to think more.

Hearing this, Huaishan's eyes showed a trace of confusion, he shook his head and said, "I don't know either."

Yuxiu returned to the room where he only stayed for one night, and his things were not completely laid out, so he quickly packed them up.

Walking out of the house, there are already two servants waiting outside.

Yuxiu bid farewell to the senior and second senior brothers, and then followed the servants to go out.

They returned to the extremely long corridor and walked straight along the corridor like last night, but this time the difference was that the only person going there was Yuxiu, and there were only two people who looked different in age to lead the way. great servant.

As the surrounding scenery became more and more remote, they came to the heavy wooden door again.

It took the two servants a long time to push the wooden door open.

The air in the courtyard was mixed with smog, and there was a gust of cold wind that made the scalp tingle, obviously it was the hot August, but that gust of cold wind made Yuxiu and the two servants shiver.

Beads of sweat were still hanging on the faces of the two servants, and their steps were frozen in front of the wooden door.

One of them looked at Yuxiu: "Little Master, your room has been cleaned, it's the room on the right in front of you."

He raised his finger and pointed in the direction, and said, "In the future, we will deliver meals on time. If the little master needs anything, he can also come out to us."

Yuxiu glanced at the wooden door behind them, then scratched her bald head: "But I can't open this door by myself."

The servant fell silent.

Yuxiu looked at him expectantly: "Can you leave the door open?"

The servant turned his head to the other person in embarrassment. That person blushed and stammered, "I-I have to ask Mr. Jiang for instructions."

Yuxiu sighed secretly, knowing that this was a dead end, Jiang Fuci was so afraid of this place, how could he let the door open here?

The two servants also gave some instructions, such as it is best not to approach the hut in the middle, not to mess with the incense candles and tributes placed in the courtyard, as well as the usual movable area and the place to go to the toilet and bathe, etc.

After giving these instructions, they looked at Yuxiu pitifully, and one of them asked weakly: "Little Master, can we just send you here?"

Yuxiu saw that their faces were pale, and when they spoke just now, their legs were trembling, and after thinking about it, she still couldn't bear to let them stay.

He said, "Go back."

The two servants looked happy, and immediately bowed deeply to Yuxiu: "Thank you, little master!"

The heavy wooden door closed again, isolating this empty courtyard from the outside world.

This time, Yuxiu was in the courtyard, her mood was quite complicated.

Returning to this weird place again, it would be a lie to say that I am not afraid, but that feeling of fear has lasted from last night to now, I don't know if it is because the time has been too long, at this moment, Yuxiu is a little bit scared. Numb.

He walked around the hut in the middle of the courtyard, then walked through a small garden, and finally came to a house.

It was dark last night, and he was in a hurry this morning. He didn't even have a chance to take a good look at the courtyard, but now he can stop and take a look.

Then he found that the courtyard was a bit empty, but it was also extraordinarily large. There were not only rockery and gardens, but also gazebos and ponds. However, the garden had not been taken care of for a long time, and the flowers, plants and trees had long since lost their life. There were only overgrown weeds and dried up The bottom of the pond also exposed cracked earth.

Everywhere exudes a desolate and dilapidated atmosphere, only the hut in the middle of the courtyard and the tribute platform in front of the hut have traces of frequent cleaning.

The only thing that comforted Yuxiu was that the house he lived in was cleaned by servants, and there was a large water tank covered with a wooden cover outside the house, which was filled with clean water for Yuxiu's daily use.

Yuxiu put down her luggage and lay down on the bed to rest.

He thought of the sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance he smelled before, and couldn't help feeling a little regretful, not to mention that he couldn't smell the sweet-scented osmanthus here, and he had to endure the smell of burning incense candles.

It's not that the smell of burning incense candles is unpleasant, but that it will inevitably feel choking after smelling it for a long time, and no one will burn incense in the place where they live all day long.

It is estimated that only the evil god can bear this.

Thinking of the evil god, Yuxiu's doubts emerged again—did the evil god choose him last night by pretending to be the second senior brother and calling his name?But why did the evil god choose him?

To say that his only special feature is that he does not belong to this world.

Could it be that the evil god has already seen this?

Yuxiu was startled suddenly, turned over and sat up on the bed, in an instant, he was frightened into a cold sweat by this conjecture.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that apart from that, he had nothing special about attracting evil gods.

Thinking about it further, what is the purpose of the evil god choosing him?Is it really like what Huaishan said, just find someone to serve him?

But Yuxiu was more inclined towards Huaishan and didn't know what the evil god wanted, so she sent him here to test the evil god's reaction.

After he figured it out, Yuxiu felt extremely uncomfortable, he couldn't see whether the future was good or bad, as if he was suddenly pushed into the darkness, he could only bite the bullet and continue to move forward.

But he knew in his heart that maybe he would step into the abyss next step.

Yuxiu sat by the bed for a while, then found a basin and went outside to fetch some water and came back, scrubbed herself from head to toe, and changed into a set of clean clothes.

He mustered up the courage to come to the tribute platform, worshiped the hut devoutly, and burned three sticks of incense.

Cthulhu, Cthulhu, I didn't move in here to disturb you on purpose, I just couldn't disobey my master's order.

Please, my lord, if you have a lot, don’t bother with me. I will definitely come to offer incense to you every day in the future, please.

Yuxiu pleaded in her heart, regardless of whether the evil god could hear his inner thoughts, it was all for self-consolation.

After burning the incense, he didn't dare to stay here for too long, so he hurried back.

Today is a sunny day, the bright yellow sun slanted down, but Yuxiu couldn't feel the warmth of the sun falling on her body at all.

On the contrary, it is a little cold...

He shivered, rubbed his arms, and subconsciously quickened his pace.

At this moment, if Yuxiu turns her head back, she will be able to see a slender white figure standing in the shadow of a corner of the corridor.

He silently watched Yuxiu's figure running away, his face was covered by a pure white mask, his skin was sickly white, only the black hair tied behind his head had the thickest color.
