Seeing this, Fan Qing rubbed her arms and leaned towards Jiang Xixi's side, "It's disgusting, are you also scared." ” Jiang Xixi frowned, she was not frightened by the cat, but when the cat jumped to her feet, it involved the wound that was bitten by the mouse, she squatted down, and saw that there was blood oozing out of the wound, and she couldn't help but take a cool breath.
"What's wrong with the foot?"
"I was bitten by a rat in the temple just now, so it's okay."
Fan Qing looked much more nervous than her, she came over and hugged Jiang Xixi, "Why didn't you say it earlier, being bitten by a mouse can be big or small, and if you don't deal with it in time, there will be a big mess." ” Jiang Xixi just wanted to ask more, but saw Fan Qing waving at an identical figure in front of her, "Fan Yin, come over and help me carry her home." ” Mrs.
Fan took a small white jade bottle, pulled out a small piece of pale yellow ointment from it, and carefully smeared it on the wound, the fishy bitter smell of the medicine drilled into Jiang Xixi's nose, which made her think of a person, and couldn't help but feel a long-lost peace of mind.
Mrs.
Fan looked up at the daughters gathered around, "It's okay, it's just a little trauma, I've been medicated, and I can get better after two days of rest," Seeing that they were still frowning, she added, "The disease has been extinguished for more than ten years, and it has long been broken, so you don't have to worry so much." ” "Sick?
What disease?
Jiang Xi said suspiciously.
Mrs.
Fan gently patted her on the shoulder, "Didn't your brother tell you?"
It was because of the epidemic that my lord met him. ” Jiang Xixi shook her head blankly, and just wanted to ask again, but Mrs.
Fan took the pillow away and let her lie on the bed, "This matter is a long story, you have been on the road for so long, take a good rest first, anyway, you have to live with us for a long time, and I will talk to you slowly in the future." ” Jiang Xi looked at her gratefully, but she suddenly remembered something, and turned over and took out two ingots of silver from the bag on her waist, "Madam, I'm going to disturb you here during this time, I won't do any work, and these silver dollars will be my accommodation expenses." ” Mrs.
Fan's face froze, and she pushed the silver back, "If I accept this silver, I don't know how to explain to him when I meet the master in a hundred years, quickly, put it away." ” Fan Yin persuaded her on the side, "Girl, you are embarrassing my mother like this, you come here, we are just adding a pair of chopsticks, we can spend a few more money, take it back quickly." ” "Hey, I like to pretend to be generous when I'm poor."
As soon as Fan Qing said a word, she was glared back by Mrs.
Fan, and she could only glance at Jiang Xixi, and walked towards the door, "Let's go, no matter how you don't go up the mountain, the good flowers will be picked by others." ” Mrs.
Fan said a few more words to Jiang Xixi, and walked out of the door with Fan Yin.
Finally she was the only one left in the house, Jiang Xixi sighed, spread her feet, lay on the bed in a large shape, and stared blankly at the beam: Judging from the situation just now, this person surnamed Fan should have a good relationship with Lord Cheng, so he will be considerate to himself, but Mrs.
Fan said that Master Fan and the adult met more than ten years ago, and Cheng Muyou should be in his early tens at that time. and that Fan Qing, why is she so nervous about her injuries, but after being bitten by a mouse, she is like a great enemy, and she is too fussful.
Even stranger were the rats that filled the temple, as if they were crawling down the rain, and there was no tribute in the temple, could it be that the statue of the silkworm god attracted them?
However, even though the thoughts in her mind were swirling, she couldn't resist the attack of sleepiness, she had been running for half a month, her body was already exhausted, a thought had not been finished, her eyelids had sunk too much to hang, and she struggled a few times, and then closed it heavily.
When she woke up, it was night, but she didn't wake up naturally, but was frightened, and in the dream, she saw a pair of eyes hidden in the dark, very bright, reflecting a dappled white light, lurking in the corner, looking at herself without blinking.
When she woke up, Jiang Xixi felt a cold back, her face was facing inward and her back to the door, her chest was rising and falling violently, and the feeling of fear in her dream had not dissipated for a long time.
Finally, she remembered where she was, and she also wanted to understand that it was just a dream, but her body was still very tight, and she did not relax in the slightest because she woke up from the nightmare, her legs were curled up, her toes were tightly hooked, she was very afraid, creepy, but she didn't know what she was afraid of.
Is there something behind it?
Curled up in a ball, peeking at her in the dark.
Jiang Xixi turned her head little by little, and she saw that there was a small black shadow lying on the windowsill, her back hair was shiny by the moonlight, and a pair of eyes flashed with cold light, straight into her heart.
Rat, I killed so many of its companions, so it came to me for revenge.
A ridiculous thought broke into her mind, but, knowing that it was ridiculous, she firmly believed it, her heart pounding, and her hand groped for her long sword by the bed.
The cold touch of her fingers touched the hilt of her sword, and the cold touch calmed her heart a little, but the next movement of the mouse made her throat tighten, and the blood rushed to the top of her head.
It opened its mouth at her, revealing its crimson mouth and tongue, a bright red in the middle, mixed with a few sharp fangs, white and shiny, as if all the frost in the world was concentrated.
Jiang Xixi felt that her whole body was being eaten by thousands of ants, and that disgusting feeling came up her throat again, making her almost can't help the churning in her chest.
"Meow."
A white light flashed, the mouse on the windowsill was gone, Jiang Xixi hurriedly walked to the window and looked down, she saw that the white cat she met on the road today was standing in the courtyard, and it had swallowed the rat's head whole into its mouth.
"Click."
A few wisps of blood spilled from the white cat's mouth, the mouse's head was bitten to pieces, and it finally stopped struggling, and the exposed half of its body gradually collapsed.
The white cat glanced at Jiang Xixi proudly, held his prey in his mouth, and walked towards the courtyard with his head held high.
"Mimi."
Jiang Xixi called it in front of the window, and looked at it approvingly, but the white cat was not interested in her compliment, it walked to the wall, and was about to jump up with its feet bent slightly, but the courtyard door suddenly opened at this moment.
When Fan Qing saw the figures of a cat and a mouse, she screamed in fright, and all the flowers piled up in the crook of her arm were thrown out, and they were sprinkled all over the courtyard.
The white cat was startled, and its body was like a bolt of lightning, "whooshing" through the courtyard gate, and ran out close to Fan Yin's legs.
Fan Yin didn't scream, but her reaction was more exaggerated than her sister's, and she immediately fell to the ground, covering her face and crying.
