Christmas

Shi Xie nodded silently, the boat man has lived up to now and he has acted against the sky.

Everyone in the world wants to live forever. Back then, Qin Shihuang also wanted to live forever, and he did not hesitate to spend countless huge sums of money and sacrifice thousands of boys and girls. But at that time, how did Qin Shihuang know the length and loneliness of this eternal life.

Just like the boatman, whose body should have already been buried in the ground, he was already alive in another way.

For a long time, alone, guarding the bitter river alone.

And now he has finally turned into a handful of loess again and returned to the river. In fact, for the boatman, this may be a blessing.

On the other side, a figure in a black robe was standing in front of a light curtain, looking at a dry river bed and angrily smashed the cup in his hand. The liquid inside slowly flowed out and soaked the floor, leaving a dark imprint.

"Trash! You are all trash!"

The man in black threw off the black robe angrily, and walked around the room irritably.

The sound of clicking footsteps sounded in the empty room, which was extremely harsh, like a note of death.

"What about the rest of them?"

After thinking for a few minutes, the man in black suddenly stopped and looked towards the corner of the room.Hearing the voice of the man in black, a rickety figure slowly came out of the darkness.

This man was leaning on an old wooden crutch in his hand, his gray hair was sparsely attached to the top of his head, and the wrinkles on his face were like

Gully in general.

Who else could this person be if he wasn't the mayor?

"Four of the remaining people have been controlled by us."

"four people?"

The man in black paused, his voice darkened instantly, his tone was startled and angry, his hoarse voice was like rough sand and stones rubbing against each other

The mayor's cloudy eyeballs moved slowly, and the white beard trembled violently.He shuddered and knelt down with a plop, his head pressed tightly against the floor and trembling, looking terrified.

"Master... the remaining three people seem to have discovered something. The person who defeated us ran into the back mountain. I have already sent people to find them, and there should be results soon."

Pursing his lips tightly, he glanced at the mayor who was lying on the ground trembling. The man in black snorted heavily and didn't want to say anything to the mayor, so he lifted his black robe and left.

The mayor replied softly while sticking to the ground, feeling the footsteps of the man in black go far away, and slowly stood up from the ground until he could not hear the sound at all.

He tremblingly held the crutch in his hand, and the veins on the back of his skinny hand were throbbing.Slowly opened the sleeve, only to see a bright red scar on his thin wrist.

The red marks seemed to be alive, beating drums and drums, as if they would explode at any moment.

The rough cloth covered the ferocious red mark again, and a faint sigh came out and then disappeared. -----

"Shall we go back to the inn now?

Carefully protecting the little ginseng in his arms, Xia Yao and Shi Xie stepped on the dry river bed.The crisp pieces of mud shattered under his feet, which made Xia Yao's teeth ache.

"The boatman is dead, and the person behind him couldn't have found out, and they are probably under control now."

After Shi Xie finished speaking, Xia Yao frowned worriedly.

"Then isn't the town very dangerous now? Those villagers..."

"Those village names are probably the same as the boatman."

"You mean they're all... the living dead?"

Xia Yao was startled and couldn't believe it.

"That's right, that person should have something with extraordinary abilities in his hands, so he can control the entire town."

"Could it be the Samsara Pearl..."

Xia Yao's voice was very soft, but it was enough for Shi Xie to hear.Stretching out his hand to gently wrap Xia Yao's shoulder, Shi Xie comforted him.

"Not necessarily, I didn't feel the existence of the Samsara Orb, maybe it's other psychic treasures."

Xia Yao nodded and did not speak. Although Shi Xie said so, both of them still had some doubts in their hearts.And once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will surely take root and germinate quickly.

At least Xia Yao now fully believes that this is the work of the Samsara Pearl.

On the shore, Shi Xie carefully observed the surroundings, took Xia Yao to hide behind a big tree, and released the little ginseng.

In order to prevent being found in a special way, Shi Xie also affixed hidden talismans to himself and Xia Yao Xiaocan respectively, and they walked out from behind the tree after everything was ready.

"This talisman can hide our breath, but it can't hide our figure, so we must be careful to avoid the crowd."

After Shi Xie finished speaking, Xia Yao nodded immediately, and even Xiao Shen nodded his head seriously.

Hiding carefully, Shi Xie and the others walked towards the inn first.The good thing is that they didn't meet a single villager on the road, but Shi Xie and the others didn't let down their vigilance either.

Hiding in a small alley, I looked towards the direction of the inn, and saw that the door of the inn was closed, not as deserted as before.

"Are we going in like this?"

Not sure if Li Jie and the others were still in the inn, Xia Yao asked Shi Xie in a low voice.

"You wait here, I'll go in and see."

Hearing what Shi Xie said, Xia Yao didn't ask why, just nodded and pulled Xiao Shen to hide.

With no one to worry about, Shi Xie also had no worries, and walked towards the inn quickly by himself.

Holding Xiao Shen in his arms and watching Shi Xie's figure enter the inn very quickly, Xia Yao didn't have much worry in his heart. After all, Xia Yao still knew Shi Xie's ability.

"Mom, why can't we go back?"

Xiao Shen hugged Xia Yao's neck and asked curiously.

"Because we have encountered bad things now, and the person who caused the bad things may be in the inn, so the inn is no longer safe."

Without fooling Xiao Shen, Xia Yao patiently explained in a language he could understand.Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Shen nodded and buried his face obediently into Xia Yao's neck.

The two waited for a while, only to see Shi Xie's figure flash back.Seeing him come back, Xia Yao immediately moved over with Xiao Shen in his arms, "How is it?"

"There is no one in the inn."

Xia Yao frowned and thought, there was no one in the inn, which meant that they might have died.But there is another possibility—perhaps they may have escaped.

"It's fine if they escape, but if they are caught, where do we find them?"

What Xia Yao said was exactly what Shi Xiezheng was thinking about. Now everything is shrouded in a cloud of fog, without any clue.

"Little brother, little brother."

The two were thinking about it when Xiao Shen suddenly hugged Xia Yao's neck and yelled.Xia Yao thought it was He Bishen who came over, but when he looked around, there was no sign of He Bishen.

"What's the matter, little ginseng?"

"My little brother doesn't come to play with me, and my little brother doesn't keep his word."

Xiao Shen pouted and said angrily, Xia Yao thought he wanted to play with He Bishen, so he didn't care too much and could only comfort him.

But Shi Xie on the side suddenly stood up straight, and immediately said to Xia Yao and the others.

"We're going to find He Bishen now."

''what? ,,

Hearing what Shi Xie said, Xia Yao didn't react for a while.

"He Bishen should know something."

Shi Xie explained briefly, and Xia Yao understood at once. Judging from He Bishen's previous situation, he might really know something.If you find him, you may really be able to get some favorable clues.

"But where are we going to find him. And he is also from the town, will he also..."

"I'm not sure, now I can only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor."

Xia Yao nodded, he understood what Shi Xie meant, and based on He Bishen's performance before, he should want to help them.

And even if He Bishen is pretending, he is just a child, and with Shi Xie present, Xia Yao is still confident that he can subdue him.

"Mom and Dad, Xiao Shen knows where my little brother is, Xiao Shen knows."

At this moment, Xiao Shen suddenly hugged Xia Yao's neck and shook gently, looking anxious.

Although Xiaoshen's strength was not strong, Xia Yao still felt a little uncomfortable, and immediately stopped his movements. Seeing this, Shi Xie stretched out his hand to hug Xiaoshen.

"Then let's go."

As soon as Shi Xie hugged him, Xiao Shen immediately became obedient, and his big black grape-like eyes rolled around.He reached out and hugged Shi Xie's neck, and pressed his soft face against Shi Xie's.

Raising half of his eyebrows to feel the soft touch of his cheeks, Shi Xie didn't move and let the little Sanqin move.

Usually Xiaocan is a little afraid of Shi Xie, although he will let him hold or hug him, but Xiaocan has never been so tired of Shi Xie.

Deliberately elongating the tone, Xiao Shen rubbed his cheek against Shi Xie's face, coquettishly.

Xia Yao watched Xiao Shen's movements with amused expression, wanting to see what he was going to do.

^^*^*^*^*^*^,■■■■■

Seeing that Shi Xie didn't respond, Xiao Shen continued to shout with a drawn out voice.Shi Xie hugged him away with some headaches and looked at his face.

"Where did you learn this set?"

"Hey, Dad~"

The little officer smiled at Shi Xie endearingly, two deep dimples appeared on his chubby face.

Shi Xie glanced helplessly at Xia Yao, who immediately shook his head to show that it was not him.

Shi Xie withdrew his gaze and muttered something in a low voice.

"A loving mother loses her lot..."

Of course Xia Yao didn't hear what Shi Xie said, Xia Yao opened his mouth to ask, but Xiao Shen suddenly called Xia Yao.

"Mom, Xiao Shen will take you to find my little brother."

"Ah good."

Xia Yao was taken aback for a moment, Shi Xie had already left before holding Xiao Shen's head.Xia Yao reacted and followed immediately, but forgot what happened just now.

Followed Xiaocan's command, turned left and right, walked several alleys and finally stopped in front of a remote gate.

"Little brother is right here."

Xiao Shen pointed to the red-painted mottled door panel in front of him, and said proudly.
