Aunt Xia's eyes trembled, and she looked closely at Lin Konglu.

Her lips moved, as if she was about to say something, but when she came back to her senses, she just lowered her head hastily, held up the clothes with both hands unsteadily, and said awkwardly: "I, listen, listen to the kite girl, you didn't bring a change of clothes, just find a few One for Jiner...here, here...a few new clothes just made, unworn, look...do you need it?"

Speaking of the last few words, she was a little bit stuttering, and her head drooped even lower.

Lin Konglu already had some guesses in his mind. After taking it, he brushed the fine stitches with his fingertips, and his gaze couldn't help but be complicated.

He took the clothes and said "thank you" softly.

Aunt Xia suddenly raised her head, she seemed very happy and a little excited, but in the end she didn't say anything, just said goodbye with reluctant eyes, and turned her head several times when she left.

Lin Konglu watched her leave. After her figure disappeared, he quickly changed his clothes and followed her quietly.

Aunt Xia didn't go back to the hut, but went to the well to find Xia Yuan who was washing clothes.

Seeing her coming, Xia Yuan stroked her forehead hair, raised her head and asked with a smile, "Auntie, where are the clothes Miss changed?"

Aunt Xia's eyes were moist, she looked at her for a while, and suddenly grabbed her arm tightly.

Xia Yuan was startled, and before she had time to ask, she asked in a trembling voice: "Yuan, tell aunt, are you... working in the palace, that young lady..."

Xia Yuan was even more startled when she heard that, and hurriedly covered herself: "Auntie, what nonsense are you talking about? I have been in the capital all the time, and our master often enters the palace, but I really don't work in the palace."

Aunt Xia shook her head, then nodded desperately, tears finally fell from her eyes, and murmured: "I know, I know..."

Hearing this, Lin Konglu didn't disturb the two of them, turned around and left quietly.

Back at the hut, just in time to meet Wu Ci coming back from "relaxing", he directly ordered: "You came back just in time, the water in the tub is too heavy, pour it for me."

Wu Ci glanced at him, walked straight into the thatched cottage without making a sound.

Lin Konglu followed behind him, seeing that he was so obedient, he immediately said, "By the way, you will sleep with me tonight..."

Just as Wu Ci picked up the tub, he staggered and nearly fell into the tub.

"...Sleeping in this room." After Lin Konglu finished speaking, seeing this, he pretended to be innocent and asked curiously: "What's wrong with you?"

Wu Ci: "..."

"It's nothing." He said with a dark complexion, almost gritting his teeth.

At night, the two of them naturally didn't sleep in the same bed, but Lin Konglu slept on the bed, and Wu Ci was watching the night.

Wu Ci didn't sleep until late at night, still holding the two swords in his arms, sitting cross-legged, quietly looking at the person on the bed.

Under such eyes, Lin Konglu actually slept very soundly.

I don't know how long it took before Wu Ci withdrew his gaze that seemed to be glued to him, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Outside, the hut where Uncle and Aunt Xia lived was still glowing faintly.

Aunt Xia was buying a pair of shoe soles under the dim soybean oil lamp, trying to make a pair of shoes for Lin Konglu.When she was at the well today, she deliberately asked Xia Yuan for the size.

Uncle Xia sat cross-legged on the bed, squinting at the light, struggling to cut the fabric for insoles.

After cutting for a while, he put down the fabric and scissors, and asked countless times in disbelief: "You, you see clearly? He is really us..."

Before she finished speaking, Aunt Xia raised her head and gave him a "shh", reminding: "Don't be silly, you forgot that the big man took away...and came here with Jin'er..."

He didn't say the following words, but it was enough to silence Uncle Xia, with a frightened expression on his face.

Just thinking of what his wife whispered in the evening, he couldn't help looking forward to it with excitement.

Aunt Xia also sighed at this time: "Jin'er came back and revealed before that he was taken to the palace to live a good life. Yuan'er was working in the palace and Jin'er arranged to go there. Besides, I won't admit the birthmark. he is the one……"

It was their poor child who was snatched away by a mysterious big man only a few days after he was born.

The great people have great powers, and they hide in the cold black mist when they appear, and they come and go like the wind. After they are robbed of their children, there is nowhere to find them.

Not a day later, the other party inexplicably sent a baby girl. They raised them with all their heart and soul, and named them Xia Jin.After a long time, I gradually developed feelings, but I missed my own son who was taken away for a moment.

They never thought that they could see that child again, never thought that God would open their eyes and let them meet again, how could they not be happy?

But Aunt Xia also understood that the child was taken away since she was a child, and she was a princess in the palace. She probably didn't know about her life experience, so how could she recognize her rashly?

What's more, that big man has great powers. When he took the child away, he threatened that they could not recognize each other. If she told the truth and angered the big man, wouldn't her child be in danger?

Not only can't they recognize each other, she might not even be able to stay with each other for a long time.

Thinking of this, Aunt Xia couldn't help crying again.

Thinking of this, Uncle Xia sighed in the same way, and the couple silently made the shoes for half a night.

At five o'clock, Lin Konglu was woken up by the system, suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Chu Ci who was guarding the door, and said abruptly, "We're leaving now."

Wu Ci opened his eyes suddenly, a little puzzled by his sudden words.

Lin Konglu didn't explain much. After getting up, he simply tidied up his clothes, left a note, and said to him, "Let's go."

Like Aunt Xia, he also guessed the other party's identity.

After the demon emperor Xuancang forced the princess of the ghost world to give birth to him, he wanted to reincarnate him, who was half-demon and half-ghost, into the emperor's house in the human world, but was stopped by the princess of the ghost world on the way, causing him to accidentally reincarnate into the home of an unknown couple.

Presumably, Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia are the unknown couple, that is, his parents whose body is in the human world.

Strictly speaking, his parents in this world are the Demon Emperor Xuancang and the Princess of the Ghost Clan, and Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia are the poor couple whose child's body was robbed.

But Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia didn't know about it, and only regarded him as their biological child.

Lin Konglu sighed, and decided to leave as soon as possible in order not to cause trouble to the couple.

Moreover, the system helped to eavesdrop on the two of them just now, allowing him to roughly analyze that after Xuan Cang took him away, the baby girl who was carried into the palace by Empress Song was brought to the couple and named Xia Jin.

From Xia Jin's knowledge that he was a princess in the palace, it can be seen that Xuan Cang should have recruited Xia Jin and trained him as a subordinate in the human world.

The protective magic circles around the thatched cottage were most likely set up by Xia Jin. She should have a protective heart for Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia.

I just don't know why she arranged Xia Yuan by his side?It's also that the girl is usually too simple and stupid, probably acting in her true colors, and he didn't find it tricky in his previous life.

But since Xia Yuan is Xia Jin's person, there is no problem in keeping her.

After Lin Konglu thought about it, he felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he grabbed Wu Ci's hand and left.

Wu Ci looked down, pursed his thin lips, and unexpectedly did not break away.

However, after they walked out of the hut, they had only walked less than a third of the way down the mountain, and there were panicked footsteps behind them.

Lin Konglu let go of his hand and turned around, only to see Aunt Xia and Uncle Xia rushing after her anxiously.

He stood still, and when Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia caught up, he was out of breath, but he was so nervous that he didn't know what to say.

After a while, Aunt Xia murmured, "You, are you leaving now?"

Lin Konglu knew their mood and nodded slightly.

Aunt Xia said again: "No, don't you bring Yuan'er with you?"

Lin Konglu shook his head and said, "It's too dangerous outside, it's inconvenient for her to be a girl."

Wu Ci gave him a strange look, and subconsciously thought, aren't you also... Isn't it dangerous?

Aunt Xia looked sad, but she had anticipated the parting, and quickly took out the shoes she had just bought from her arms with trembling hands, stuffed them into Lin Konglu's hands, pressed them tightly, and said, "This, this is just made. Good shoes, you, you take it."

After finishing speaking, she slapped her husband next to her.

Uncle Xia was looking at Lin Konglu in a daze, and woke up instantly after being hit, hurriedly lowered his head, awkwardly took out the insole he had just sewn, handed it to Lin Konglu awkwardly, and said dryly: "Here, here... take it. "

Lin Konglu looked at the shoes and insoles in silence, feeling inexplicably sour, and finally took it, and said softly, "Thank you."

"No, no thanks." The couple shook their heads hastily, and then watched him and Wu Ci leave. They wanted to tell them several times, but they never said anything.

Lin Konglu walked a few steps, then suddenly turned to look at them again.

At this time, Aunt Xia hurriedly ran over again, held back tears and stuffed him with some broken silver, and squeezed his hands tightly, saying in a choked voice: "You need to travel everywhere, you may not lack, but it is always good to bring more .”

Lin Konglu didn't want to accept it, but it was really hard to refuse, so he finally pretended to accept it, and put it back in her pocket when Aunt Xia wasn't paying attention.

Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia didn't notice, they just raised their hands and waved goodbye dryly.

Wu Ci saw it, but didn't say anything.

The two walked down the mountain for a while, and when the figure was about to disappear, Aunt Xia finally couldn't hold back, and shouted with a hint of hope: "You, if you have time, come back and have a look."

She knew in her heart that the possibility of this was extremely low, and that this farewell might be a farewell, so she lowered her voice unconsciously, she clearly expected the other party to hear it, but she was afraid that he would hear it.

Lin Konglu paused slightly, then turned around suddenly, and said with a smile, "Yes."

The couple were stunned, and then wept with joy.

After Lin Konglu turned around, he held Wu Ci's hand and continued down the mountain.

Behind him, Uncle and Aunt Xia couldn't help shouting again: "Be careful on the road."

"The little brother next to him, you should protect him more."

Wu Ci still didn't break free, and looked back at the couple who were still standing there watching, feeling inexplicably that he had robbed someone else's daughter.

When approaching the foot of the mountain, he suddenly said softly, "You seem to know them very well?"

"Is there?" Lin Konglu pretended to be surprised.

Wu Ci nodded affirmatively.

Lin Konglu thought for a while and said, "Maybe my parents treated me badly, and I feel kind to them when I see them."

This is not a nonsense, the Demon Emperor Xuancang completely treats him as a tool, the emperor and empress are not considered parents, and most of them use him, the princess of the ghost clan...has never been in contact with him in the previous life.

When Wu Ci saw him say this, his expression was calm, as if he had been used to it for a long time.

Thinking about it, when he went to inquire about news near Jincheng, he heard that the emperor and queen had already run away before the capital was breached. If he really loved the princess, why didn't he take her with him?

Suddenly, a strange emotion flashed across Wu Ci's heart, and he subconsciously clenched his grasped hand a little more.

Lin Konglu noticed it and gave him a surprised look.

Not long after the two left, Xiaguang entered the forest.

Xia Yuan only woke up at dawn, and hurriedly got up to serve Lin Konglu.

Aunt Xia happened to see it, stopped her and said, "The lady is gone."

Xia Yuan was dumbfounded when she heard it, and she came back to her senses after a while, and said with difficulty: "What do you mean... leaving?"

"It's just that they went down the mountain first and left. I don't know where they went." Aunt Xia's mood has calmed down a lot, but when she talked about it, she still couldn't help sighing.

Xia Yuan felt bad all of a sudden, and murmured: "Grand...Miss, she left? Why did she leave? Why didn't you take me with you?"

Aunt Xia sighed and comforted: "He said it's dangerous outside and it's not safe to take you with him, so he didn't wake you up on purpose."

Xia Yuan panicked and said: "Then I have to follow, otherwise how can I explain to Miss Jin? And I'm not here, who will serve Miss? No, I have to find her quickly..."

Seeing this, Aunt Xia hurriedly stopped her, and sighed: "Oh, they've been walking for a while, and they left before dawn, so they couldn't catch up."

"Then we have to chase." Xia Yuan said anxiously.

During the dispute, a woman in black with a cold face came from the forest and frowned upon seeing this.

Aunt Xia and Xia Yuan stopped their hands when they saw her, and shouted in surprise and embarrassment: "Jin'er/Sister Jin?"

The woman in black was carrying a black broadsword on her back, carrying a few chickens and a bag of rice, and shouted at Aunt Xia and Uncle Xia, "Father, mother."

Uncle Xia said happily, "Jin'er is back."

Immediately thinking of Lin Konglu who just came down the mountain not long ago, the family couldn't see each other, and couldn't help sighing.

Xia Jin didn't notice, handed the rice and chicken to the two, and said to Xia Yuan, who was cowering in fear, "Come with me."
