"Yinhui! You wake up!"

Aji was so pleasantly surprised that he subconsciously wanted to rush to save her, but he was worried about her injury and was anxious for a moment.

"I'm much better, mom..." Yinhui supported her weak body, squeezed out a smile, and turned her eyes to Zhang Hao.

He sat on the edge of the bed, and the warm light of the bedroom shone above his head, making Yinhui feel particularly safe for some reason.

Aji saw that Yinhui's condition had improved, and his worry gradually faded away, turning into an extremely angry face again.

"Are you stupid? You know that the knife is poisonous, but you still rush forward?!"

Even though he was scolded in the face, Yinhui still laughed.

Zhang Hao knew that Yinhui was worried that her mother would blame herself. As long as her mother starts scolding, it proves that everything is fine, and Yinhui responds with a smile.

Maybe all parents in the world are like this. It's a pity that Zhang Hao has never experienced such warmth. Even if he understands what the mother and daughter are thinking, he can't empathize with them and can only show his respect with an envious smile.

After confirming that Yinhui was fine, Aji formally said to Zhang Hao: "Thank you, young man, I don't know your name yet."

"My name is Zhang Hao. I come from Sichuan. I am a mountain driver and make a living by finding herbs."

As for anything else, Zhang Hao didn't say much.

"You haven't answered that question yet. Since they are conscious beings, why do they have children? Why do they get old, sick, and die?"

"Simply put, ideology determines form. They think that since they are still human beings, they will get married and have children as they expected. After raising their children, they will retire and grow old, and the consciousness they are born will be reflected in a brand new way. As long as you live with your appearance, in the final analysis, 'they' are still 'them', and it has never changed. You are a miko of the older generation, so you must know this, right?"

"No, I don't know." Aji's expression became serious, "Our seniors have taught us over and over again that we must not get involved with those who have had too much trouble..."

This is also the rule that Aji taught Yinhui over and over again, but it was broken by Zhang Hao.

"Who made these rules?"

"...I don't know, it seems to be an agreement." Aji said hesitantly.

No, judging from her expression, she might know, but she just couldn't say it.

"The most senior witch should know this, right?" Yinhui said lightly.

"Yinhui!" Aji stopped Yinhui, "You have just woken up. You should rest more and sleep for a while. I will make medicine for you after dawn."

Yinhui was indeed very sleepy.

Poisoning is extremely exhausting, and it was not easy for her to last for so long.

But he still looked at Zhang Hao, and there seemed to be other information in his eyes that he had not yet conveyed.

Zhang Hao patted her quilt gently and said, "Go to sleep and wait until dawn."

The two of them walked out of the room. Aji pulled Zhang Hao and said softly: "Mr. Wang, Xianglu Village is no longer there. I also plan to withdraw from the association with Yinhui. I'd better not mention the things in the past as much as possible."

"Are you planning to retreat because Xianglu Village is gone, or was this your original plan?"

"...Ana is no longer here. If my daughter goes on any dangerous missions in the future, I will be worried to death."

Aji looked at the coffin in the middle of the living room. Zhang Hao followed it and learned that the woman lying inside was called Ana.

"Okay, I know."

"Stay here and take a rest tonight. Don't run back and forth. I'll make your bed."

"No, I'll sleep here for one night." Zhang Hao pointed to the quilts spread on the floor on both sides of the living room and said, "If you stay closer, you can always pay attention to Yinhui's situation."

"Are not you afraid?"

The person lying in the coffin is a stranger who is not related to him. Is this something a normal person would be afraid of?

Zhang Hao laughed and said, "I've been in the mountains by myself so many times, how could I be afraid of this?"

He was not pretentious, and Aji would not force it. He pointed to the door opposite and said, "That's the guest room over there. I'll make it for you. You can sleep wherever you want."

After ten minutes, the house became quiet.

Zhang Hao leaned against the wall of the living room with only a small light on, holding his knees with his hands, and there was no trace of sleepiness in his eyes.

There were too many questions plaguing his mind even now.

Why did the saint suddenly make mistakes back then?

What's the opportunity?

Who is the great witch?

After the incident at Xianglu Village, why did the witches decide to perform rituals regularly?

Why hasn't a witch discovered the truth there in three hundred years, and why do you think they are all living people?

There were more and more strange questions, but he became more and more sober.

Time came to dawn unknowingly.

Ding-dong-

The phone that had been silent for many days suddenly heard a notification tone.

Zhang Hao was afraid of disturbing Yinhui's rest, so he quickly turned on mute and then checked the message.

Siyu: [I have been away from home for many days. I wonder if things are going well for you there? If you get a signal, please send me a message. I'm a little worried about you. 】

It was obviously just a gentle and straightforward text, but it was like a warm current, slowly flowing through Zhang Hao's heart.

The time now is 6:37, which seems to be Li Siyu's wake-up time.

Zhang Hao thought it over and dialed her number.

beep--

beep--

The call was answered after just two calls. It seemed that Li Siyu was already awake and holding the phone.

"Hello? Did you go down the mountain? Are you not injured? Where are you now?"

Li Siyu's somewhat urgent voice came through the receiver with some distortion, and Zhang Hao couldn't help but chuckle.

"Ask them one by one. There are too many to answer at once."

"Oh..." Li Siyu calmed down, cleared his throat and said, "I didn't mean to disturb you, it's just that you haven't heard from you for a few days since you left home, so I sent a WeChat message because I was worried about you."

There is no signal on the mountain. This situation has happened many times before. Usually when there is signal, Zhang Hao will always send a picture at every opportunity. But this time it is too far from home, and there has been no news for several days, so Li Siyu can't rest assured. .

"Sorry, I've been really busy these days."

On the one hand, she was busy. There was no signal in the whole mountain over to Xianglu Village. In addition, after going down the mountain, she was busy looking for Yinhui. Then she was injured again, so she really had no time to reply to the news that she was safe.

"It's okay. Are you going down the mountain now?"

Li Siyu on the other side of the phone was sitting on the edge of the bed, his phone turned on hands-free and placed on the table, his fingers wrapped around the straps of the Hanfu, with a satisfied smile on his face.

She likes to talk to Zhang Hao on speakerphone. She likes the feeling that Zhang Hao's voice fills the whole room, as if he is never far away.

Realizing this, Li Siyu's face turned red again.

"Well, I'll be home soon. Is there anything you want me to take home?"

"No, just go home safely."

"it is good."

There was a soft sound from the door behind him, maybe Yinhui woke up.

"Don't talk for now. I have something to do. Let's talk later."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Hao stood up and gently knocked on the door behind him.

"Are you awake, Yinhui?"

After a while, a soft voice came from the house: "Wake up, come in."

After entering the room, he saw that Yin Hui's complexion had returned to rosy color as he was sitting by the bed. He thought it was due to the effects of [Single-leaf Chinese Ginseng] and various other rare medicinal materials.

"It seems you're much better." "Were you guarding the door last night?"

"Well, you are now out of danger, and your mother can take care of you in the future."

Yinhui was silent for a few seconds, and when he raised his head, his eyes flickered.

"Are you leaving?"

Zhang Haoyue touched her and probably heard the voice he just spoke. Although he touched her very gently, she was weak and her sleep was probably very unstable.

"Sorry, I woke you up."

"No." Yinhui shook his head and asked again: "Are you leaving?"

"Well, the mission here has been completed and you have recovered. It's time for me to go home."

Yinhui pursed her lips, the words "Don't go" stuck on her lips, but in the end she didn't have the courage to say it.

She could hear how gentle and doting Zhang Hao's tone just now was, and she couldn't think of any other choice besides her girlfriend.

At this moment, she felt not only regret but also unwillingness, but everything had its first come first, and with the relationship between her and Zhang Hao, she couldn't even say "have fun for a few more days".

The room fell into an eerie silence for a moment.

Fortunately, Aji came over quickly and broke the calm.

"Ah, you all wake up so early? I'm going to the town to buy some things, and you guys should play at home first."

"No need, Auntie." Zhang Hao quickly stood up and said, "I'm going back to my hometown today."

"Huh? So sudden?"

Aji subconsciously glanced at Yinhui and asked her whether it was true or not.

After receiving Yinhui's nod and answer, she was a little surprised.

As a mother, she could tell that Yinhui had some feelings for this young man, and since he was already his savior, she also wanted Zhang Hao to stay here for a while. It would be great if they could develop a relationship. But right now...

"Yes, my wife has been waiting at home for a long time. She just called me. It's time for me to go home."

"Wife...wife?!"

Aji opened his mouth wide, unable to tell that this young man got married young!

She looked at Yinhui again. Although she was surprised, it was expected.

After all, there is only a marriage certificate between the girlfriend and the wife.

"...Well, you should go back early, don't let your wife worry. We are destined to meet again."

Yinhui forced herself to say this and then locked herself in bed. She could hardly hold back her tears.

Aji looked at the little figure on the bed, his eyes full of heartache, but helpless. After all, you can't force this kind of thing.

No matter how slow Zhang Hao is, he should understand the various hints at the moment, and he feels that he can't stay for a long time.

"Don't send Auntie off, I'm leaving."

Zhang Hao left without even saying goodbye to Yinhui. He didn't want to give Yinhui any thought.

After he walked out of the door, Yinhui suddenly stood up from the bed, looked at Aji with messy hair, and said, "Mom, go see him off... I can't get up."

"it is good."

Aji turned around and went out to chase him, and finally caught Zhang Hao at the street corner.

"Mr. Wang, wait!" Aji ran to Zhang Hao and gasped: "That girl said she couldn't get up, so she asked me to come and see you off."

"There's really no need to send Auntie away, just take good care of her."

"This girl is very stubborn. If I don't come out, she will talk about me for a long time."

Zhang Hao felt that Aji was hinting at something, but he didn't want to understand and couldn't understand.

"Well, thank you." After Zhang Hao agreed calmly, he mentioned another matter to her: "By the way, auntie, can you tell me the contact information of your witch guild?"

"Huh? What do you want this for?"

"I thought it might be useful in the future. Don't worry, I won't bother you if everything is fine."

Regarding the witch guild, he still had some unanswered questions. When he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely investigate again, especially the "big witch".

"Okay, add WeChat and I'll send it to you."

Aji did not directly give him his phone number, but offered to add Zhang Hao's contact information.

Zhang Hao hesitated for a moment, then agreed.

After sending Zhang Hao away, Aji ran back to Yinhui's room.

This girl is lying on the bed looking at the ceiling crying, she really has no ambition!

"He just asked me about the Coven. I added his contact information. Do you want to add it?"

"what?"

Yinhui suddenly became energetic, looked at Aji with bright eyes and asked: "Mom, did you really join him?"

"Well, do you want to join?"

"No...he won't pass. Just add it."

"I have no intention of telling him about the witch association." Aji said coldly: "I asked for it for you. If you don't add it, I will delete it."

This unexpected answer made Yinhui panic a little. She reached out to grab the phone, but how could she, a patient lying on the bed with an injured shoulder, be Aji's opponent.

"We are all quitting the Witches' Guild anyway, and everything over there has nothing to do with us."

Yinhui's scrambling movements stopped.

She turned to look out the window and was silent for a few seconds. Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she looked at Aji firmly and said, "I won't quit. I won't quit."

"What? Are you crazy? How many more dangers do you want to experience?"

Yinhui lay back down again and said, "I will not quit."

"Why, just to wait for Zhang Hao to contact you one day?"

"No, I don't know why."

Yinhui remembered what happened in Xiangluzhai Mountain. Zhang Hao told her that she could love and remember everything she saw, even those sad stories were one of her life experiences.

He was the first person that Yin Hui fell in love with and enjoyed the profession of a miko.

Yinhui wants to continue loving.

In the crowded high-speed rail station, there is not even a place to put suitcases.

Zhang Hao stood in the corner, watching the people coming and going, his face that had always been tense finally looked tired.

He lowered his head and looked at the suitcase at his feet. It was filled with various small things and local specialties that Zhang Hao had collected for Li Siyu in the past two days. She might use them for filming videos.

After chuckling, he raised his head again and leaned the back of his head against the wall, listening to the signs of people coming and going.

Having been to so many places, he didn't even have a single companion, but fortunately, no matter where he went, there was a place he could go back to, and there was someone he loved waiting for her there.

[Passengers on train G3842 are asked to go to window 16 to check in and enter the station. 】

[Passengers on train G4021 are asked to go to window 09 to check in and enter the station. 】

After two consecutive news announcements, it was time for Zhang Hao to set off.

He was not in a hurry to get to the front of the line, but stood at the back and queued slowly.

At this moment, his eyes suddenly came into contact with a familiar figure!
