In the book, the villain male second was conquered by me and became a loyal dog

The woman looked up at the roof from time to time, her face full of worry, as if she was worried about something.

The young man tightly grasped the corner of the woman's clothes and asked in a low voice: "Sister, when can we get to our new home?"

The woman patted his back gently and said in a soothing voice: "Don't be afraid, we will leave when the rain stops."

Then, they snuggled together tightly and gradually fell into a light sleep.

Yu Qingci frowned slightly and was about to speak, but Tong Huanyou took the lead.

Tong Huanyou said uncertainly: "This can't be the state of mind of a snake demon."

Yu Qingci responded in a low voice: "I guess so."

"What are we waiting for! Let's go in and take a look!" As soon as Tong Huanyou finished speaking, he couldn't wait to rush towards the water mirror.

Yu Qingci had no time to stop her and could only watch her rush in recklessly.

Yu Qingci sighed, then followed closely into the water mirror.

As soon as he entered the water mirror, Tong Huanyou felt that the scene around him changed instantly.

We were already in the dilapidated temple, and the two ragged siblings were not far away.

Yu Qingci looked at Tong Huanyou and said, "If you didn't know, you would have thought you had discovered a treasure."

Tong Huanyou seemed not to hear anything and continued walking towards the brother and sister.

As he walked, he muttered, "Wow, I'm really here. The original plot didn't introduce the background of the snake demon. For my hidden plot points, go!"

Seeing that he was being ignored, Yu Qingci's face turned black and he could only follow quickly in silence.

When Tong Huanyou approached the brother and sister, he thought that he would be able to touch them just like Yu Qingci's previous illusion.

However, her hand went straight through her sister's body.

Tong Huanyou looked at his hand with a puzzled look on his face, muttering, "Strange."

Yu Qingci stepped forward, pondered for a while, and said, "This is a memory."

Tong Huanyou nodded, not quite understanding.

Wasn’t Yu Qingci’s water mirror a memory?

At this moment, a slight noise suddenly came from outside the dilapidated temple.

The two looked at each other and looked in the direction of the movement.

After a while, the door of the dilapidated temple was suddenly pushed open and two masked men rushed in.

Their eyes scanned the temple and soon spotted the brother and sister in the corner.

The elder sister suddenly woke up, her eyes widened, and she tightly protected her brother behind her, saying in a trembling voice: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

The two big men ignored my sister's words and one of them just rushed forward.

Grab your sister.

My sister struggled desperately and shouted, "Let me go! Let me go!"

The younger brother was also awakened. When he saw his sister being caught, he burst into tears and cried, "Sister, sister!"

"Behave yourself! Otherwise you will be in trouble later!" the big man threatened viciously.

Seeing that she couldn't break free, the elder sister anxiously shouted to her brother, "Xiao Si! Run! Run!"

The younger brother was so frightened by the scene that he froze for a moment, looking at his sister's heart-wrenching cries.

With tears in his eyes, he turned around and ran desperately out of the temple.

Seeing this, one of the two big men wanted to chase after the younger brother.

The elder sister used all her strength to grab the corner of his clothes and shouted, "Don't chase him! Let my brother go!"

The big man yelled angrily and pushed my sister away, and she fell to the ground.

The younger brother ran and cried, with his sister's shouting echoing in his ears.

He didn't dare look back, he gritted his teeth and ran desperately, his small figure stumbling in the darkness.

"Don't run, little brat!" The big man roared behind him.

I don’t know how long I ran, but my brother felt his legs were almost numb.

Finally, he hid behind a big tree, not daring to breathe, his heart pounding.

"Sister..." The younger brother murmured softly, tears flowing uncontrollably.

Tong Huanyou looked at the scene in front of him, his face full of shock.

"This is... the memory of the snake demon, right?" Tong Huanyou asked.

"Yeah." Yu Qingci responded.

"This is abducting a woman...right?" Tong Huanyou said again.

"Ah."

As the two said these two sentences, the scene in front of them changed again.

Time flies, spring goes and autumn comes, and it is a cold winter day again.

The boy walked numbly on the street.

"Have you seen my sister?" The boy's cracked lips trembled slightly, and he asked every passerby in an almost lifeless voice.

However, passers-by avoided him as if he were a terrible plague god.

Just as the boy lowered his head in disappointment again and again, a man in a dark purple cloak appeared before him.

The hood covered most of his face, leaving only a pair of deep eyes exposed.

The moment this person appeared, Yu Qingci suddenly felt an unusually familiar feeling in his heart, as if he had met this person a long time ago.

Yu Qingci frowned tightly and tried hard to search his mind for memories about this person, but found nothing.

Tong Huanyou noticed that Yu Qingci was acting strangely and asked softly, "What's wrong? Do you know this person?"

Yu Qingci shook his head and whispered, "I don't know him."

At this time, the boy raised his head and looked at the person who suddenly appeared in a daze.

The man in the dark purple cloak said slowly in a low and hoarse voice: "Go south, there is a village, your sister is there."

The boy's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had grasped the last straw, and he said excitedly: "Really? Is my sister really there?"

The man in the dark purple cloak nodded slightly and stopped talking. He seemed to glance at Yu Qingci's position intentionally or unintentionally.

Then, the man turned around and blended into the crowd and soon disappeared.

Yu Qingci couldn't help but frown, and a hint of vigilance appeared in his eyes.

The boy turned around and walked south without hesitation.

Finally we arrived at a village.

Tong Huanyou was stunned: "This...isn't this..."

The village they are in now.

He hurried through the alleys of the village, anxiously asking everyone he met: "Excuse me, have you seen a girl in her early twenties with a red birthmark on her neck?"

However, all I got were blank shakes of the head and negative answers.

The boy was unwilling to give up and continued running around the village, but the outcome was the same.

Finally, the sun gradually set, stretching the boy's shadow long. He stood in the center of the village, feeling unwilling.

Just then, a woman who had just been carrying a basket on her back passed by him.

As if holding on to the last glimmer of hope, the boy ran to the woman, his eyes red and repeating the same question in a trembling voice.

The woman was startled by his sudden action and subconsciously took a step back. Then, looking at the boy's desperate expression, she couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.

She pondered for a while, as if trying to recall something, and finally spoke slowly: "The person you are talking about seems to be the bride who was sacrificed to the river god two years ago."

When the boy heard this, he froze in place as if struck by lightning, and said in a daze, "What bride?"
