Reborn, after dressing up as a vicious female supporting character

After a while, someone came and asked Duan Shanmian to come in.

He smiled at Song Lianhe and walked into the clinic with Zhu Liao.

The city of Sishui was on the verge of being massacred. Now that the Nanchen Army has withdrawn, the city is on high alert. Not to mention the enemy, even the people from the two cities of Daishui and Fengbai behind them can't set foot in the city now.

This move is highly suspected of breaking away from the relationship.

"... City Lord Duan is planning to betray King Yongdong?"

When Zhou Cangyan saw Duan Shanmian, he asked straight to the point.

After Duan Shanmian sat down, he slowly waved his folding fan and said, "It's not a betrayal, I just want to fulfill my duties as the city lord."

Zhou Cangyan's gaze turned behind him again.

Zhu Liao knew that this was a confession game and he couldn't escape it.

So, he smiled bitterly, bowed to Zhou Cangyan, and said, "I am only concerned about Sishui City and will not think about anything else."

No matter who he belongs to, no matter what his purpose is in staying with Duan Shanmian, he is now just an aide to the city lord.

Duan Shanmian looked towards him and said, "Thank you in advance, sir."

Zhu Liao bowed again hurriedly: "I am ashamed."

Zhou Cangyan was playing with the willow leaf dart in his hand out of boredom. "I am not interested in the past. I just want to know what City Lord Duan will do next."

Duan Shanmian coughed twice, then picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.

He knew what Zhou Cangyan wanted to ask, and smiled slightly, "What I can guarantee is that what Your Highness is worried about will never happen to me."

Zhou Cangyan raised his eyes and looked at him for a moment.

"Send it to City Lord Duan."

"Yes!"

The shadow guard stepped forward, "City Lord Duan, please."

"Thank you."

Duan Shanmian took Zhu Liao out of the front hall.

It was not until they left the clinic that Zhu Liao looked at him worriedly, "City Lord, King Yongdong..."

Duan Shanmian lowered his gaze and said slowly, "I have already paid back what I owed him with half my life. The remaining half was saved by Princess Qing, and I keep it to atone for my sin."

After hearing this, Zhu Liao fell silent.

Prince Yongdong will never let Duan Shanmian go in the future!

Zhu Liao gritted his teeth, clasped his hands together and said solemnly: "Even if it costs my life, I will protect the city lord!"

Duan Shanmian smiled and held down his hands. "It's not our turn to fight. Now that Sishui City has been taken by His Royal Highness King Qing, how could he allow others to rob it? He asked us to come here just to confirm whether we have any ulterior motives."

He chuckled and put his hands together as he walked onto the street. "King Qing is here to take care of everything. You and I can put our minds at ease."

Zhu Liao reacted and laughed, "I am the one who is in control of the situation and I am confused! The city lord is right, we have someone to support us now, so what are we afraid of!"

-

Song Lianhe lay on the haystack with his arms and legs spread out. Everything that had happened during this period seemed like a dream.

Now I have time to review it. She died and came back to life, all thanks to the pill given by the old Taoist priest.

At first, she had mistakenly thought it was the mud rubbed off the old Taoist priest's body...

She couldn't help laughing.

My hands are a little itchy.

Song Lianhe looked down and saw that it was Xiao Lan!

"No, Xiaolan, what's wrong with you? You...you..."

Looking at the little snake's body becoming lighter and lighter... no, it almost no longer looks like a snake.

Xiao Lan's body is almost transparent, and its scales glow with colorful luster in the sunlight. It has a pair of small horns on its head, and when it crawls over lazily, it feels like it has spent a lot of energy.

But it still came to her and looked up at her.

At that moment, Song Lianhe suddenly understood something.

It's strange, she just knew.

"You...are you saying goodbye to me?"

Xiao Lan shook his head as if in response.

Its movements were already very slow.

Song Lianhe sat up and held it in her palm.

Little Blue seemed to be a step behind. It shook its head and propped itself up, trying hard to look at her, as if telling her: It had tried its best.

Song Lianhe felt a lump in his nose and moved closer to look at it.

"Are you going to leave me too?"

Xiao Lan was very tired and lay in her palm, but his eyes were still looking in her direction.

It was not until then that Song Lianhe could see clearly that Xiao Lan's originally extremely bright eyes had now become cloudy, as if covered by a thin layer of film.

It couldn't see her anymore.

Song Lianhe pursed her lips and gently moved her forehead close to it.

Little Blue seemed to sense something. It used up its last bit of strength, raised its head and gently touched it with its horn.

Song Lianhe's tears suddenly welled up.

"No matter who you are, no matter if you really exist or not...thank you for accompanying me through this journey."

When she raised her head again, Xiaolan was lying quietly in her palm, motionless.

"Ow—"

In the air, spring flowers are circling, their cries are mournful and sad.

Song Lianhe took Xiaolan's body out of the city.

Not far behind her, a group of people followed her quietly.

"My lord, we just need to follow the princess. You haven't slept much these days, so you should go back and rest." The shadow guard advised.

The man sitting on the tall horse said slowly, "I can't sleep without her."

The shadow guard fell silent.

When he said nothing.

Song Lianhe buried Xiaolan next to Jintang and Yinhuan's tomb. When Xiaolan's body was buried, the soil around it was a little loose, as if something was trying to drill out.

She was startled and saw several black insects crawling up.

Song Lianhe jumped in fright, and then several large centipedes and ants the size of peanuts appeared...

Song Lianhe could tell at a glance that these were poisonous insects.

Seeing these bugs trying to suck Xiaolan's body, she became anxious and was about to take out the insect repellent powder, but someone grabbed her wrist.

She turned around and looked into Zhou Cangyan's light eyes.

"If the Gu King doesn't want to, even after death, these poisonous insects won't be able to get close to it."

Song Lianhe was stunned.

"It's using this method to 'repay'." Zhou Cangyan glanced into the pit and said slowly: "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, this is the cycle of life."

Song Lianhe gradually understood.

However, the rustling sounds coming from the pit still made her scalp tingle. She couldn't imagine what Xiao Lan would look like at this moment.

Seeing her in pain, Zhou Cangyan walked up to her and hugged her in his arms.

"Buried."

"Yes!"

The shadow guard stepped forward and took a look into the pit, his eyes showing a bit of fear.

He quickly covered the pit.

At this time, Song Lianhe took out the tombstone he had made for Xiao Lan, with the word "Xiao Lan" engraved crookedly.

When I saw the words written on it and then looked at her hands, I saw several obvious cuts on her fingers.

Zhou Cangyan frowned, obviously unhappy.

Song Lianhe reached out and stroked the tombstone, then looked at the tombstones of Jintang and Yinhuan next to it, feeling heavy in his heart.

Just as she was about to get up and leave, her eyes blurred and she fell forward. Fortunately, Zhou Cangyan held her.

He immediately asked nervously, "Are you okay?"

Song Lianhe shook his head: "Not bad."

She rested one hand on E Jintang's tombstone, and only when she withdrew her hand did she discover that the pair of bracelets on her wrists had automatically cracked and slipped off her wrists.

Zhou Cangyan bent down to pick it up, but he found the clue at a glance.

This pair of bracelets actually has a mechanism.
