"It must be nearby." He did not regret thinking that it should be like this.
Xiaoxiao really wanted to have Little Dingdang. It would be great if she could become a horse at this time, and not have to feed the mosquitoes in the forest. She really couldn't walk anymore.
"How about, I'll go look." As soon as he said it, he felt it was impossible even if he didn't regret it. What if Xiaoxiao meets another killer like before? "
Xiaoxiao also thought of this, so she opened her mouth to stop them, "Don't go! "I was lucky just now. If another killer appeared, I would definitely die."
He sized up Xiaoxiao and shook his head helplessly, "Didn't you just learn the sword from Grandmaster Tian Jiu?"
"I did, but when I tried to use it just now, Shui Rou tapped on my acupoints." Let's not go anywhere tonight and have a good night's rest. If those assassins came back and saw all those bodies, they would think we ran away. It's safest here. " In one breath, she said her suggestion and yawned lazily. Holding onto the little thing, she closed her eyes tiredly.
"That's true! As expected of your brain, no wonder that senior of yours kept praising you. " In fact, he was also very tired. Leaning against the tree beside him, he closed his eyes and rested.
And in the woods, the blue eyes were watching them. Shui Rou clenched her teeth and clenched her fists. She did not regret her hatred, but was afraid of being discovered. She could only think of another chance to get close to that tiny dot. However, she knew that with this, the next opportunity would be even more difficult.
He left very helplessly, and very unwillingly. Halfway there, she came across a small group of people chasing after her, directly using these people to vent the anger in her heart. However, he didn't know that doing this would save him a lot of effort.
In the forest, Xiaoxiao and No Regret were pulled into a dream by exhaustion. On one side, Lil Thing was staring at the moon in the sky with its eyes wide open. Then, its two eyes began to emit a blue light.
Wuu!" "Wu wu wu!
The little thing screamed at the moon, its voice shrill and desolate. However, the two people beside him didn't feel anything and slept like dead pigs.
Wuu!" "Wu wu wu!
The little thing whined a few more times, wagged its bottom, and its short tail grew out. With its tail wrapped around the tree, it climbed up. Sitting on top of the tree, he raised his head and barked into the moonlight.
The moon slowly climbed out from behind the cloudless clouds. A ray of light shot towards the little thing, and the little thing happily closed its eyes, absorbing the energy of the moonlight.
Surrounded by the moonlight, the little creature's body became transparent, and a glowing object could be clearly seen in its stomach.
That light again?
Just as she finished off the killer midway, Shui Rou saw the light in the sky. She couldn't help it. She turned around and stared at the light, afraid that it would suddenly disappear.
It was as if he could sense Shui Rou's arrival. The clever little thing suddenly opened its eyes and licked its lips. It immediately fell down from the tree.
After shaking its body, the moonlight was no longer shining and its tail had regained its short appearance. She jumped into his arms and pretended to be asleep as she closed her eyes.
Sou sou!
Shui Rou hovered above the tree, looking gloomily at the two sleeping under the tree before looking at the moon in the sky.
Damn it!
He was a step too late. Could it be that this light really had nothing to do with Xiaoxiao? Everything was just a coincidence. That jade pendant was taken by the little demon in the forest.
As he was thinking, he suddenly realized that he had opened his eyes under the tree. However, his sharp eyes were filled with fear, almost as if he was looking at himself.
Sou sou!
With a flick of her hand and a gust of wind, she disappeared into the darkness.
He didn't regret opening his eyes. He closed them, then opened them again and saw that the tree was empty. He thought that he must have been seeing things. Thus, he changed his position and continued sleeping.
In the middle of the night, a cold wind blew. Afraid of attracting the enemy's attention, they did not dare to light a bonfire. The little thing couldn't sleep because it was shaking. It could only let its tail grow longer. There was a big cocoon around it so that the wind wouldn't blow in. Everyone could sleep more peacefully.
Night passed, and dawn arrived.
The little thing that was sleeping on its head shifted its body slightly, causing its eyes to open a crack when it woke up.
What is this place?
It looked warm, and when he reached out to touch it, he felt that it felt good. It was just that the smell was a bit unpleasant. Was it inside the white cotton ball?
Hehe!
He must be dreaming, but this dream felt really good.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw that there was no regret lying beside him. There was also Snowball, who was sleeping soundly. Subconsciously, she felt as if she wasn't in a dream. She lazily pinched herself, causing pain to spread all over her body.
How could this be?
She sat up and took a closer look. The little thing was fast asleep and drooling. The cocoon was made from its tail.
Really! It's true!
Xiaoxiao tilted her head, reached out to touch the little thing, and gratefully said to it, "You saved me so many times, and I misunderstood you."
Woo woo!" "Woo woo!
Lil Thing suddenly opened his eyes and looked nervously at Xiaosu, then at the tail that he had forgotten to retract. The look in his eyes seemed to say, I'm finished. I can't hide anything this time.
Thus, it calmly shook its body and retracted its large tail. When he looked again, the sun was already in the middle of the sky.
"Don't worry, I will keep your secret." Tiny gently stroked the little creature's head, and it raised its head and began to mewling coquettishly.
The shout woke up Wu Zhangkong, who was fast asleep. When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on his little leg. On top of his head was a little thing that reeked of blood. He stood up, and the little thing fell into his arms. He lowered his head with a flushed face, not daring to look at her.
"What's wrong?" Xiaoxiao looked at him with a puzzled expression. Sleeping together like this would often happen in orphanages in the past, so she wasn't surprised.
"No …." Nothing, I... I'll get you something to eat. " He lowered his head, focusing only on the blush on his face, completely forgetting the danger from yesterday.
Not regretting his departure, Xiaoxiao patted Lil Thing and said in a small voice, "You have to be more careful in the future, especially that woman called Shui Rou. She came to me last night. Those eyes were terrible. "
"Wu wu wu!" Snowball nodded in response.
"Do you know where my jade pendant went?" Xiaoxiao pouted at the snowball, looked into its eyes, and sighed deeply. "Forget it, you've never seen my treasure before."
Wuu!" "Wu wu wu!
Snowball wanted to express something, but her eyes were full of anxiety. However, her little gaze shifted.
"Small, small!" Hearing the unrepentant shout, Little Treasure put the little thing down on the ground.
Strange!
He had only gone in for a few minutes. Why was he out again?
When she saw that he was running towards her, she anxiously asked, "What happened?"
He pointed to the east side of the woods and replied with a worried look on his face, "There are a lot of corpses in the woods to the east. There are at least forty to fifty of them, and they died in a very strange way."
"Forty or fifty?" Xiaoxiao was so surprised that her mouth was wide open. Obviously, this was not a human being. Otherwise, they would have been able to hear such a huge commotion.
"The method is very strange. It doesn't seem like an ordinary person's doing. I suspect that there is a wild beast in the forest." She didn't regret being suspicious like this and didn't dare to tell Xiaoxiao directly. This would scare the little girl.
"It's Shui Rou!" Xiaoxiao immediately thought of that woman.
"Shui Rou?" He did not regret saying those two words. He remembered that when he saw that woman last night, he thought she was dreaming.
The bodies had been examined, and there were clear scratches on the wounds. If Shui Rou wasn't human, like in the novel, it might be her.
Speaking of this woman, Xiaoxiao recalled that she almost lost her life in her hands last night. He felt a surge of frustration in his heart, but was unable to vent it out.
Wu Wu Wu!" "Wuu!" Lil Thing raised its head and cried out, looking at Xiaoxiao with determination.
Xiaoxiao still did not open her eyes as she continued to analyze the situation, "She was looking for the jade pendant, but who knows where it is?"
"It's not on you?" He asked instead of regretting.
Little Jun looked at him with no regret and asked seriously, "How did you know I had a jade pendant?"
"Actually, the last time you saved Auntie Liu, I already guessed that you had a treasure on you, but since you were unwilling to tell me, of course I wouldn't ask." He paused for a while and then said, "When I was living at Xiao Yao's house, I found some strange moonlight. I also found out that the moonlight was coming from your house. It was the moonlight that attracted Shui Rou.
"How do you know everything?" Little Jun bit his lips. It turned out that his so-called secret had become an open matter.
She knew that Shui Rou knew, and now she knew even if she didn't regret it. What kind of secret was this? She was really afraid that there would suddenly be a group of women that wanted to be gentle like Shui Rou. It would be weird if they didn't scare him to death.
"I know it's okay, it's best not to let too many people know. The people of the world all love treasures, so it is very easy for them to attract the attention of assassins. " Unregretfully, he shook his head and did the actions of the Amitabha.
"It's useless even if I know. The jade pendant suddenly disappeared last night. I don't even know how to explain it to Mother when I get back." Xiaoxiao sat down with a depressed expression.
"He's gone?"
What was even weirder was that even Bai Yunfei did not know where Xiaoxiao had hidden the treasure all this time, nor did he know that there was a treasure on her body.
"In order to save Auntie Liu and Master Liu, the treasure's vitality is greatly damaged. It is necessary to absorb enough moonlight to recover. Last night I took it out and lit it in the moonlight. I fell asleep so tired that I woke up and it was gone. " Xiaoxiao regretted not holding onto the treasure last night, or else she wouldn't have lost it.
Noticing Xiaoxiao's disappointment, he quickly comforted her, "Don't blame yourself too. When the time is right, the treasure might jump out."
"That's what we thought. Maybe it really will disappear forever." A little disappointed, he shook his head.
Many of the novels he had read before had mentioned that such spiritual energy treasures like the jade pendant were not only coveted by the common people, but would also be taken care of by the monsters that were about to get it. As a matter of fact, treasures could increase one's monstrous magic power, and even more powerful ones could become immortals. There was no hope for that.
Wuu!" "Wuwuwu!
The little thing jumped into her arms and began to bark at her, so anxious that its heart almost burst out of its throat.
Xiaoxiao was in no mood to eat, so she moved aside and touched the empty Five Organs Temple, looking pleadingly at him without regret. "I'm so hungry, can I get some food first? Then we can think of a way to go back to Carefree Palace."
"Alright!" He did not regret his simple reply and looked worriedly at Xiaoxiao.
"What are you afraid of? This little thing can protect me. Moreover, with yesterday's experience, if I meet those assassins again, I will definitely pick up my weapon to fight back." As he spoke, he pulled out the sword at his waist and accidentally dropped the little thing on the ground.
"Wu wu wu!" The little thing cried out in pain.
However, Xiaoxiao only played with the treasured sword in her hand. Looking at the sword tip shining in the sunlight, she already thought of her tall figure in a chivalrous attire.
Since it was like this, he didn't have to worry about it anymore. However, after thinking about how many assassins died, he said there should be horses nearby. After thinking for a while, he said, "There are horses nearby, let's endure it. Let's go!"
After finishing her sentence, she pulled Xiaoxiao towards the exit of the woods without any regrets. Xiaoxiao didn't even have the time to sheathe her sword and scrape at the tree beside her. The little thing ran the fastest on all four legs. Not only was it ahead of them, it even found the place where the horse was most eye-catching.
He saw that there were twenty horses tied to the tree in front of him. The horses looked very leisurely.
However, he didn't smile at all. Instead, he frowned and said in a deep voice, "These horses look very tired. They must have just run here. Hide, the killer is nearby."
