Phoenix Feather

It was nearly four o'clock in the morning, and it was very suspicious for Li Mei to go out at this time, especially with so many things happening in the Jin family these two days, and Li Mei's behavior was even more suspicious. Yu followed immediately.

The little phoenix hangs crookedly on Xuanxuan's shoulder, and it won't fall off.

Taking a closer look, I saw that little Phoenix was asleep, and looking at little Qilin, his head was almost pressed against his chest.

Xuanxuan simply hugged them, so as not to lose it halfway and not know.

Yue Yu joked: "Let's go out with a pet basket next time."

Xuanxuan said: "It's best not to let them follow, it would be nice to warm our quilts on the bed."

As soon as the words fell, the sleeping little Phoenix gave a low cry in protest.

Yueyu smiled: "Xiaoyue's charm is too great, Little Phoenix and the others would rather blow the cold wind with you than sleep under the warm blanket."

"Tell me, can they become such a small one?" Xuan Xuan gestured, "If they are so small, they can be put in your pocket."

"Wouldn't it be a thumb phoenix, a thumb unicorn?"

"Not bad, the small one is easy to carry."

……

Li Mei walked in a hurry, Xuan Xuan noticed that she was wearing slippers and pajamas, which showed that she was in a hurry when she went out.

Looking at the direction, Li Mei was actually heading towards the other side of the mountain.

Soon they reached the foot of the mountain, but Li Mei didn't go up the mountain, but went around to a small road on the right.

After walking for about ten minutes, turning a corner, I saw a light in front of me, and a small one-story house with white walls and yellow tiles appeared in the hazy night.

Li Mei pushed open the simple courtyard door and walked in.

Inside, the lights were dim.

A wire with no original color was stretched from the ceiling, and a blackened light bulb was hanging from the end of the wire.

The wind blew in through the half-open wooden window, and the light bulb was blown swaying.

There was a wooden bed in the corner, the quilt on the bed was raised, and a section of silver hair was exposed beside the pillow.

Li Mei walked to the side of the bed, leaned over to have a look, saw that the person on the bed was sleeping soundly, so she didn't startle, and gently pulled up the quilt.

Unexpectedly, the person on the bed was awakened, and the person turned over and sat up.

Ugly or beautiful is not the criterion for judging a person's good or bad. Xuanxuan and Yueyu do not judge people by their appearance, but when the face of the person on the bed was exposed to the light, they both frowned at the same time——

The towering forehead is wrinkled, the eyes are big and small, the nose is flat, and the lips are thick... It is an old woman, an old woman whose appearance makes people feel very uncomfortable. It makes people feel that she is very evil, and she has the urge to get rid of it quickly.

"Why are you here?" The hoarse voice seemed to be turning rusty gears.

Li Mei sat down beside the bed, "I couldn't sleep, and I suddenly wanted to visit my mother."

mom?

Looking at each other, both Xuanxuan and Yueyu saw surprise in each other's eyes, because from the appearance point of view, the old woman and Li Mei had no similarities at all. Mother and daughter are really unbelievable.

The old woman sighed: "Did Jin Yan hit you again?"

Li Mei didn't speak.

Xuanxuan and Yueyu outside the window noticed that there were many bruises on the exposed half of Li Mei's arm, and the corners of his mouth were also torn.

The old woman patted the back of Li Mei's hand and said: "Mom knows you are suffering, but since you are married to him, you can only live with him in this life, just be patient."

Li Mei lowered her eyes, she didn't like Jin Yan at all, every moment in Jin's house made her feel disgusted, she obviously had a choice back then, if it wasn't for...

"Mom, I want a divorce." Gritting her teeth, Li Mei finally got the words out of her mouth.

The old woman disagreed: "Divorce? This is not where you can get a divorce if you want to. Have you thought it through?"

She wanted a divorce because she thought too clearly, but she knew that the old woman would not agree. Li Mei didn't want to listen to the old woman's nonsense, so she changed the subject: "Mom, Jin Qiaoyu is dead, not only Jin Qiaoyu, but also Luo Zhong is dead." gone."

The old woman scolded: "Why do you call them by their first names? They are your mother-in-law and father-in-law."

Mother-in-law?Father-in-law?Li Mei was disdainful in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.

"What did you just say, who died?" The old woman seemed to have only now realized what Li Mei said just now.

"Both Jin Qiaoyu and Luo Zhong are dead." When Li Mei said this, she felt an inexplicable joy.

"How, how?"

The old woman muttered to herself, apparently she was extremely shocked by Jin Qiaoyu and Luo Zhong's death, Li Mei couldn't help but said: "Mom, the Jin family is cursed, and Zhu Hong also died inexplicably, I don't want to stay there anymore , I want a divorce, Mom—"

"This—" the old woman lost her mind, "but can Jin Yan agree?"

A fierce light flashed in Li Mei's eyes, Jin Yan naturally disagreed, how could he agree without a vent, but the dead don't care whether he agrees or not.

The old woman didn't know that Li Mei had murderous intentions, and she was still nagging Li Mei to think carefully, saying that it was a matter of a lifetime.

Li Mei replied submissively.

"It's almost dawn, you'd better go back quickly." After talking for a long time, the old woman was surprised that it was almost dawn.

Li Mei wanted to leave a long time ago, and she even regretted running out in the middle of the night to tell the old woman what she thought.

After Li Mei left, the old woman got out of bed and went out to close the open courtyard door.

The sky seemed to be splashed with ink, completely covering the faint starlight.

The old woman was standing in the yard, looking at a plant in front of her in a daze. The plant was very short and only reached the old woman's waist.

After standing there for a while, the old woman suddenly knelt down and kowtowed three times to the plant.

After worshiping the plant devoutly, the old woman stood up and went back to sleep.

……

Xuanxuan and Yueyu came out from the dark place, first took a look into the room to make sure that the old woman was fast asleep, and they walked to the plant in a very tacit understanding.

That plant is very weird, it looks like a censer filled with incense, the most surprising thing is that this plant is black, pure black.

Xuanxuan immediately thought of the black woman tree on the mountain, and wondered what the relationship between this dwarf plant was and the black woman tree on the mountain.

Yue Yu tried to break off a short section of branch and leaf, but it really did leave the tree and melt like water.

"It must be the seed of that black woman tree." Xuanxuan said.

"The question is how to make a living?" Yue Yu was very curious.

"Could it be related to the soil?"

The two were about to try it out, but unexpectedly alarmed the old woman——

"Who's outside?" Hearing the sound, the old woman had already got out of bed.

Helpless, had to withdraw first.

……

noon

Xuanxuan and Yueyu, who were catching up on sleep, were woken up by the sound of firecrackers.

Xuan Xuan asked in a daze, "What time is it?"

"It's almost 12 o'clock." Yue Yu said.

Pull up the quilt, "Who is setting off firecrackers outside?"

Last night, counting up to less than five hours of sleep, Xuan Xuan was very sleepy at this time, and felt that the bursts of firecrackers sounded like magic sounds.

Yue Yu said helplessly: "It seems that the whole Sun Town is letting it go."

"Little Phoenix, little Qilin, cover my ears for me, I want to sleep."

Raising his paws and looking, Little Phoenix found that his paws could not cover his ears. He tilted his head and thought for a while, so he had to use his head as an earplug to help Master Xuan block the noise. Little Qilin followed suit.

Yue Yu laughed, hugged the two of them away, and served Xuan Xuan herself.

Xuanxuan said comfortably: "Human earplugs are more effective."

After lying on the bed for a while, Xuanxuan still got up, and couldn't fall back asleep after being woken up.

After washing up, she saw that only Shen Yang, Xia Ruohai and the two children were in the living room, and they were about to have lunch.

Xuan Xuan asked Shen Yang: "Why are firecrackers set off at this time?"

Shen Yang said: "Today is the first day to invite the sun lady. The ceremony starts at 12 o'clock. Before it starts, firecrackers will be set off."

Xuanxuan was very interested in this so-called ceremony of inviting the sun lady, so he asked, "Can we go and see it?"

Shen Yang nodded, "But you have to be careful, don't interrupt the ceremony, otherwise there will be serious problems."

At this time, Yi Bubu and Su Fengliu came back, and they also brought back an unexpected news. It turned out that Zhang Xiao and Zhu Hong were sisters.
