You don't understand the fairy world

Chapter 35 The Old Dream (2)
"Can't sleep?" Long Xining poked his head out from behind the wall, blinked, and didn't know where he was thinking. He immediately became excited, jumped into the courtyard of Xiao's house and said, "Is it because you don't have me to accompany you, so you Can't sleep? How about I come to sleep with you at night? I'm warm and I don't kick the quilt..." He praised his sleeping appearance fiercely, and his black eyes didn't blink Staring at Huaiying, I only hoped that she would nod.

Huaiying didn't have the energy to pay attention to him, waved him back listlessly, and went back to the house to sit down.She rested her chin in a daze for a while, then heard the door of the yard outside opened, and turned her head to see that Xiao Zidan who had gone out to inquire about news had returned.Huaiying's heart tightened, and she subconsciously walked to the door and looked at him.

"Let's talk in the room." Xiao Zitan shook the snow off his clothes, took off his cloak and walked into Huaiying's room.Just after entering the door, Long Xining came in behind him. Xiao Zidan frowned suddenly, turned around and said, "We brothers and sisters have some important things to discuss. Can Wulang go to the next door and wait for a while?"

"Ah?" Long Xining was surprised by Xiao Zidan's polite attitude towards him at first, then seemed to think of something, frowned and said, "Is there any secret you two can't tell me?" He was a little unhappy.

"It's not convenient for you, Goro, to listen to some private matters." Huaiying also persuaded patiently and softly, "Can you go to the next room first?"

Although Long Xining was a little displeased, since Huaiying had said so, he couldn't object anymore. He pouted displeasedly, nodded, opened the door and backed out.When he went out, Xiao Zidan quickly closed the door, sat down and took a sip of hot tea, and then said: "The identity of that person has been found out, he is a bully in the east of the city, and he does many bad things on weekdays , even his own father was pissed off, and there were no other relatives in the family. There was no wound on his body, and even Wu Zuo couldn't tell how he died. The yamen searched for two days and found no clues. There is no victim in the case, and it is estimated that it will be dropped in a few days."

When he heard the news, he was very relieved. Although Huaiying was not necessarily responsible for the death of that person, if the investigation continues, no one can say whether Huaiying will be found in the end.Even if there is no evidence to convict her, a girl with such a reputation will be in trouble in the future.

Xiao Zidan saw that Huaiying was still stern and silent, smiled, and comforted him softly: "Don't think too much, this person's death may not be your problem. Maybe after you leave, there will still be people in the alley. Something happened that we don’t know about. Otherwise, even if you really exert your full strength, you may not be able to hurt people.”

Huaiying spread her hands and looked at her palms. These were a pair of white and slender hands, and there was really nothing that could hurt anyone.Maybe, she should believe Xiao Zidan's words, and believe that the death of that person has nothing to do with her.However, Huaiying felt a little uneasy in her heart, as if some things were quietly changing in places she couldn't see and out of her control, but she didn't know anything about it.

Xiao Zidan persuaded her for a while, and seeing Huaiying's complexion gradually improved, he felt relieved, and said: "When the weather is warmer, let's go out of the city some time to relax. Well, we will also take a walk at that time." Let's call Wulang together." It is rare for him to take the initiative to call Long Xining, of course, it is more likely that even if he doesn't call, Long Xining will stalk him.

As soon as Xiao Zidan went out, Long Xining turned in immediately, blah, "Huaiying, I drew you an amulet, put it on quickly."

Huaiying was stunned for a long time before he understood what he was talking about, and said "oh", the movement was a few beats slower, and finally reached out to take the talisman in Long Xining's hand and stuffed it into his purse.No matter how belatedly Long Xining felt something was wrong, he suddenly stretched out his hand to touch Huaiying's forehead, frowned and said puzzledly: "It doesn't seem very hot? Huaiying, what's wrong with you, since the day before yesterday Something is wrong, the whole person is in a daze, and the words are not right, and the things are not right, it seems that he didn't sleep well. Do you have something on your mind? "

"Is it related to what Xiao Zidan told you just now?" He is not stupid at all, but he is a little naive and innocent, and he doesn't use his brain very much on weekdays. No, he can guess it casually.

Huaiying still wanted to deny it, but Long Xining had already started to guess wildly: "What happened? It happened during the Chinese New Year? It must have caused you to be so unhappy. It must be a big deal. Could it be another accident in Xiao's mansion?" It's..."

"Don't guess." For some reason, Huaiying suddenly wanted to tell him the truth, she needed more to tell, so she hesitated for a few seconds, bit her lip, and continued, "I...it seems... Accidentally killed a man."

Long Xining was stunned, and stared at her in disbelief for a while, before remembering to speak: "You...killed someone? A child?" Except for children, Huaiying was so skinny. Who else could the little girl kill.

"He's a strong man." Huaiying told him what happened on New Year's Eve, but skipped the part where he lost consciousness, "...Anyway, he suddenly stopped moving. I don't know why. My elder brother quietly went out to inquire about it, and said that even the work of the yamen could not find out the cause of death. I must have injured him somewhere fatal."

"You actually went out alone at night!" Long Xining jumped up angrily, "How can you go out alone? What about Xiao Zidan, is he dead? Why did you go out alone! Fortunately, that bastard is dead , if he didn't die, I would have to kill him. How dare you bully you..."

He completely missed the point, scolding Xiao Zidan for a while, and cursing that rascal to go to the [-]th floor of hell.Huaiying's depressed mood miraculously improved after being made such a fuss by him.Sure enough, when you are depressed, you still need a stupid and cute boy like Long Xining to accompany you.

As soon as she was in a good mood, she simply asked Long Xining to go out for a walk together.

Long Xining's eyes lit up: "Oh, isn't your elder brother going? Then let's go quickly." He didn't know what he thought of, and he smiled wickedly, and stretched out his hand to pull Huaiying.While he was pulling and tugging, Father Xiao suddenly opened the door and came in, seeing Long Xining's hand resting on Huaiying's shoulder, even a person as dull as Father Xiao felt that something was wrong, his brows frowned, his eyes widened. Staring straight at him, he said, "When did Shiro come?"

Long Xining took his hand back as if nothing had happened, and replied with a smile: "I just came here for a while, and I am going to go for a walk with Huaiying. She is not in a good mood today, so I will accompany her."

Father Xiao frowned, and put the lotus seed soup in his hand on the table: "Huaiying came over to drink the soup first, I just stewed it, and put a lot of rock sugar, it's sweet."

"Is it for me?" Long Xi asked with a grin on his face.

If it had been changed before, Father Xiao would have given him a share without hesitation, and even if he didn't have it, he would have to get some out of Huaiying's share, but today, for some reason, he suddenly felt a little unhappy and groaned With a sound, he said unnaturally: "That... is gone."

Long Xining obviously didn't expect to be rejected by Father Xiao, and was immediately stunned. Father Xiao pretended not to see, and said vigorously: "Eat quickly, you. It won't be good after a while."

Huaiying held back her laughter, and quickly drank up the lotus seed soup in the bowl.Just as he was about to get up and leave, Father Xiao suddenly followed and said, "You want to go for a walk, I will go too."

Long Xining: "..."

Father Xiao actually followed him like this, Long Xining almost vomited to death, if it was Xiao Zidan who followed, he could still quarrel with him, but this time it was Huaiying's father, Long Xining would not Dare to make mistakes.What made him even more depressed was that the tricks that were very useful in normal times didn't seem to be very effective today. Father Xiao's eyes were like knives, staring at him up and down, left and right, looking carefully, wishing he could cut him open.

Why didn't he realize that Father Xiao was so difficult to deal with before?

They walked out of the alley and wandered around the city, Long Xining was quite noisy, talking to Huaiying all the time.Father Xiao stared at him vigilantly, and every time he saw Long Xining getting closer to Huaiying, he would start coughing.

"Cough-cough-"

Long Xining was very depressed.

The three of them wandered off to nowhere, and there was no one in the alley, so Long Xining stopped suddenly and looked ahead solemnly.Huaiying followed his gaze suspiciously, and saw an eleven or twelve-year-old girl walking in front of them, pushing open a courtyard door, and quickly disappeared behind the door.

"What's wrong?" Huaiying asked softly.

Long Xining frowned: "There is evil spirit." Moreover, this evil spirit was somewhat familiar, as if it was the monster that harmed him in Chenghu Lake last time.Without any explanation, he quickened his pace and rushed to the gate of the yard where the little girl entered just now, knocking on the door, "Bang bang bang", wishing he could knock down the door of the house.

There was such a big commotion outside that the people in the yard couldn't sit still, and they immediately replied in a hurry: "Who, knock lightly, knock lightly, our door is almost broken." After finishing the work, there was a "squeak", and the gate fell straight into the yard, shaking the floor with a muffled "bang".

Father Xiao was dumbfounded.

"Who are you guys?" An old man with a gray beard and the appearance of a butler rushed out of the mansion, looked at the door panel on the ground with a sad face, pointed at Long Xining and said, "You...what are you trying to do? Dare to break into a private house. Let me tell you, our young master is an official of the Jingzhao Yin Yamen, if you dare to mess around, be careful and put you all in prison in a short while."

Long Xining rolled his eyes at him angrily, and asked, "Where's the person who just came in?"

The old man became more and more angry: "It's actually aimed at our young lady."

"Nonsense!" Long Xining said impatiently, "She is full of evil spirits, and her life is almost gone. If I don't look for her, who will I look for?"

The old man was startled, and his face immediately changed, but soon he regained his composure and glared at him: "You can pretend to be a ghost at a young age, who are you scaring? We are not some country people who have never seen the world—"
