Chapter 59
In the dark room, a petite figure was lying on the bed, but it was faintly heard that she was sleeping extremely restlessly.

in a dream.

It was pitch black all around, and the wind was biting cold.

Xia He curled up and huddled into a ball, hiding hungry behind a wooden board piled up with sundries at the back door of a house.

Those eyes that were originally shining like stars are now full of fear, and the bright eyes are shaking around in the darkness, not daring to slacken their attention to everything around them, and their ears are erected high to pay attention to the surrounding sounds.

Xia He has been hiding here for a long time, so long that she felt that her limbs were stiff and numb.

Hunger made her less resistant to the cold, shivering in the wind and snow with her thin body,
But she dared not go out.

She told herself that even if she was starving to death, she couldn't go out.

If you go out, you will definitely be arrested.

No matter how bad things are in Xiahouhou's mansion, as long as Xiahou Qingyang dislikes her, he won't touch her.Although everyone in the Hou's mansion hated her, after all she was Xiahou Qingyang's concubine in name, and no one dared to destroy her.

But in the hands of Beili people, it's different.

She is Xia Guowen's only daughter, and the only blood he left in this world.In the eyes of Beili people, she is the daughter of the enemy.Falling into their hands, it would be difficult for Xia He to leave a whole body, as long as he could not survive, he would definitely suffer all kinds of abuse.

If that's the case, she might as well grit her teeth and starve to death here.

Xia He was a little annoyed, why didn't he have a sharp dagger in his hand?
That way, at least if they find themselves, she can do it without hesitation.
Before Xia He could finish his thoughts, he suddenly heard a strange sound.Listen carefully, like breathing, and like something is sniffing yourself.

Gives a creepy feeling.

If he felt something, Xia He quickly looked to his left, only to see two ferocious ghost eyes staring fiercely at him.

"Ah! Ghost!"

The shattering scream pierced the night sky, and it sounded particularly scary in this silent night.

Xia He scrambled out from behind the wooden boards, ignoring the surrounding situation, seeing that there was a way ahead, he ran forward desperately.

Run all the way, stumble all the way.

"Wow woof woof."

Xia He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the wild howling of the vicious dog behind him, and thought to himself: So it's not a ghost!

"Wang Wang."

Xia Heben's heart was relieved by the wild dogs chasing behind him, and he was so frightened that he continued to run away instinctively.

But no one can outrun that beast.

The wild dog jumped in the air, knocked Xia He out hard, and fell to the ground like a rag doll.

In exchange for the pain of hitting her head on the ground, Xia He grinned instinctively, and she didn't have time to take care of her worn hands. She saw the vicious dog pounce on her while she was dizzy.

But in an instant, the contest between man and dog was decided.

Xia He was ragged, unkempt, and muddy, and many places on his body had been bitten to pieces by the vicious beast.

When the last bit of strength was about to run out, the only thing that flashed in her mind was 'relief'.

She lived without dignity and compromised all these years, and she didn't know what it was for!
It's just that I was unwilling to end up being devoured by wild dogs.

Xia He's whole body relaxed, and he gave up struggling, but after all, he couldn't help shivering because of fear.

It must be painful to be bitten like this.

She bit her lower lip tightly, fearing that she could not bear the pain and scream out.

But the expected pain didn't hit her, only a heavy object pressed down heavily on her body.

"Well!"

She was so crushed that she let out a cry of pain, and her closed eyes stared round inertially.

There was a faint light in the dark alley at this time, and Xia He saw a slender and tall figure standing against the wind and snow.

She couldn't see the other person's face clearly against the light, but only vaguely felt that the other person was looking at her.In the dark night, his pair of cold eyes were unusually bright, like a guiding star in the sky.

"stand up."

The clear and cold voice penetrated Xia He's soul.

After hearing what the other party said, Xia He wanted to get up, only to realize that the place where the twins were propped up was fluffy and very warm.

Such warmth made her reluctant to let go.

Even if it's just a dead wild dog.

In the darkness, her icy lips moved a little bit, with a hint of self-mockery, and the corners of her cracked lips hurt slightly.

Although he was greedy for this bit of warmth, Xia He didn't hesitate for a moment. He pushed away the dead dog with all his strength, and got up from the ground with all his hands and feet.

"Thank you for your life-saving grace."

Repaying favors or something, she felt that what she said was empty words, so she simply didn't mention it.

Suddenly, a man in hard clothes leaped from the wall.

As soon as the person landed, he immediately walked behind the person who rescued her. "Master, a large number of people are coming here. They are not our people."

It's not hard to hear that the other party's voice is a little tense.

"Cough, cough, cough."

"Father"

"Son."

Seeing that the man who rescued him stood up straight bent suddenly, Xia He coughed so hard that his heart broke.

"Grandpa, your injury"

The voice of the well-dressed man sounded very worried.

"Don't cough and cough to get in the way." The man supported the wall with his hands, coughing continuously.

"Master, you used your internal strength just now." The man's voice was obviously out of control, full of anxiety.

The man didn't answer, just spit out the word "go".

The well-dressed man quickly reached out to support him, and the two walked out of the alley within a few steps.

"Young master." Xia He trotted for a few steps, the frostbite on her feet was torn open when she ran for her life, and now she couldn't bear the pain even after running for a few steps.

There was a carriage parked in the alley, and the faint light in the alley came from two lanterns hanging on the carriage.

Xia He chased him a few steps away from the carriage, stopped, put his hands on his chest, bowed his knees and bowed respectfully.

I silently said in my heart: There is nothing to repay in this life, and Master Wanwang cherishes it.

The well-dressed man helped his grandfather into the carriage and was about to lower the curtain when he saw the man coughing violently again.

"Master." The well-dressed man habitually stretched out his hand on his back to breathe for him.

Hearing his exhausted coughing, Xia He raised his muddy face, unable to hide his worry.

The man just happened to look at her when she looked up.

Xia He's heart trembled, as if someone had knocked on his heart.

Starlight is staring at her with a slight chill, his wise and deep eyes are captivating, his long eyelashes form a row of silhouettes under the light, his face is flushed abnormally because of coughing, and the bridge of his handsome nose is extremely beautiful A morbid pallor stained his lips.

All she could hear was the man's cold and pleasant voice passing through her soul to her ears.

"Go back."

Very strange!Xia He understood that he meant to let himself go home.

Just these two words stained her eyes, which had not shed tears for a long time.

"Xia He is homeless," she said.

The cold, proud and lonely star gaze stayed on her for a moment, and no emotion could be detected on that exceptionally handsome face.

The man said nothing, but handed a man's heavy cloak and a bag from the carriage.

Xia He, when the well-dressed man was stunned and still had no time to recover, quickly ran forward to take the things from the man, and bowed his knees. "Thank you son."

Seeing her take it, the man gave her an indifferent look, and then gave instructions to the well-dressed man who had just recovered from his daze. "Walk".

"Yes." The well-dressed man quickly got into the carriage.

Xia He heard a cold voice coming from the carriage again. "Lights off."

Then, the two lanterns in front of the carriage went out instantly.

The box returned to its original darkness.

In the darkness, the man's voice reached her ears again.

He said. "Tomorrow, go to Ruyi Building on Chang'an Street and look for shopkeeper Chen."

she asked. "What should I say to shopkeeper Chen?"

he answered. "East."
