When Lin Zhu returned home, she took a look at the room next door. It was dark and there was no light on. They were probably still sleeping.

She didn't think much about it, but she looked a little depressed. Although she gave Xi Yuanen three days, she didn't get the result she wanted.

That was her sister's child, her only relative in this world. How dare they deceive her? If she hadn't discovered it by accident, the child might not have survived.

The woman let out a deep breath. When she pushed the door, the heavy door panel creaked, and then everything became quiet.

"sleepy……"

Yun Nian yawned, and a few tears came out when she blinked. She knitted her eyebrows slightly, looking pitiful.

Wei Qingjue at the side chuckled, and with a little force, he "pulled" her up from the ground, and then held her horizontally.

"Then let's go back. Close your eyes."

The girl in his arms obediently closed her eyes, her crow-feather eyelashes curled up obediently, and her expression was quiet and gentle, which made the cold regent who was looking at her couldn't help but become gentle.

He liked to say the word "we" to Yun Nian. It was not "I" and "you", but we are one. It was as if these two simple words could bind people tightly together.

The hazy moonlight quickly chased the dancing figures. Without the need to conceal their figures, the two quickly returned to their room.

Wei Qingjue lowered his eyes and looked at the girl in his arms. She was breathing slowly and clearly had fallen asleep. She clasped her hands in front of him.

It was not until he took the quilt and gently covered Yun Nian with it that the girl let out a murmur that sounded like she was half asleep and half awake.

"Ok?"

What did he want to say? He leaned over to listen, and suddenly he could hear the shallow breath coming over him, and the vague words became clear.

"The rabbit is so cute, I want to braise it..."

Yun Nian's lips parted, and she smiled as if she was thinking of something beautiful.

Similarly, Wei Qingjue was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Why are you so greedy?"

In the darkness, his heart softened, and he obeyed his inner thoughts, leaving a light kiss on the girl's forehead, and then separated immediately.

……

"Haven't you found the person yet? So much time has passed, if you delay, something bad may happen..."

Zuo Kangping sighed, sat on the chair and pressed his forehead. The others looked at each other, not daring to reply. Huo Minghan had already set off to return to the place where he was guarding.

"What about the boy?"

He suddenly changed the subject. Seeing that no one answered, he couldn't help coughing. Then someone hesitated for a moment and came forward to report.

"General, the General seems to have gone to look for him alone."

"This guy!"

The general, with a serious face, suddenly slapped the table hard, making a deafening sound that almost pierced the eardrums.

"I told him to wait, are you in such a hurry?"

"Haqiu!"

Zuo Mingyuan, who had already walked out of the Keluo Palace, sneezed, rubbed his nose, and then opened the silk cloth in his hand.

"What is this painting about? The old emperor hid it very well. Is it related to the crack before?"

When counting Korlo's belongings, he spotted this thing with his sharp eyes, and used coercion and bribery to steal the thing that looked like a route map.

"I feel like I've seen it somewhere before? When?"

He scratched his head and decided to take it one step at a time. There was almost no other way except to wander around.

After walking for a while, a strong smell of blood wafted through the air. The pungent smell almost completely enveloped the restaurant in front of them. The originally dry and yellow soil now became moist and black.

Zuo Mingyuan put away the things in his hand, squatted down and slid his fingertips across the soil.

"It looks like it was just recently infected."

In other words, the person who caused this incident is likely still here.

Although Keluo is an enemy country, since it has been conquered, the people of Keluo should be protected by the Da'an Kingdom. Moreover, such a brutal massacre should never be allowed.

Without making a sound, Zuo Mingyuan walked in. When he entered the restaurant, blood was flowing on the wooden floor.

Some of the bodies were lying on the ground, some were lying on the table in a twisted posture, and some were even leaning against the wall with their heads tilted.

It can be seen that these people wanted to escape at first, but they didn't have time.

The wounds on these corpses were intricate and not clean and neat, but rather seemed to be venting.

"Is it revenge?"

He was guessing as he turned over the bodies, but he pricked up his ears to listen carefully to the sounds around him, lest the murderer suddenly appeared and killed him.

But there was no sound from the murderer. Instead, there was a faint breathing sound, with a tense breath, as if it was a dying breath, coming from the middle of the pile of corpses.

"It seems there are still survivors."

Zuo Mingyuan held the sword tightly in his backhand and walked over cautiously.

The people piled on top of each other were thrown out, revealing a shivering man at the bottom. He looked very scared. When he saw that he was exposed, his first reaction was to run away.

Unfortunately, Zuo Mingyuan grabbed it back and put the sword across the opponent's neck.

"I ask, you answer. Otherwise, I don't mind turning you into them too. Got it?"

"..."

"do you understand?"

Zuo Mingyuan impatiently pushed the sword a little further in. The sharp pain instantly passed to the survivor, frightening him so much that he nodded hastily, no longer daring to remain silent.

"Ming, I understand."

Seeing that he was sensible, Zuo Mingyuan nodded with satisfaction, and then began to ask,

"What's going on here? Who did you mess with?"

As if he suddenly remembered the cruel scene, the man's legs trembled, his voice became trembling, and he shook his head frantically.

"I don't know! I really don't know. That guy, that evil spirit, started saying strange things as soon as he came in. We were just ordinary business people, so we wanted to ask him to leave and not disturb the other customers..."

"But...but he suddenly attacked. I swear, we didn't provoke him, but he killed our shopkeeper and wouldn't let anyone leave."

"He was talking about whether he had seen his master, but how could I know who his master was? When I asked him about his specific appearance, he didn't answer. He was like a madman, shouting that it was all his fault."

"If I hadn't learned some turtle breathing techniques, I probably wouldn't have survived!"

The man spoke with deep emotion, his hands curling up unconsciously.
