Xiao Xu, who had calmed down from his indignation, was now deflated again.
It must be so angry that it dared to treat the male protagonist like this!
Xiao Xu was in great danger, so he shrank his round body and tried to reduce his presence as much as possible.
It secretly glanced at Shen Yanjin's expression, and after seeing the other's gloomy face, all the feathers on its body stood up and its breathing stopped.
It's not really going to be made into a delicacy, is it?
I want to cry but I have no tears.
Ana Shen had already twisted his wheelchair and handed the thing in his hand to the man in black guarding the door. He said something coldly and turned back.
"Fat Shen, did you see something?"
Xiao Xu nodded frantically.
The other party reached out and gently twisted the feathers on his forehead. The coldness in his tone softened a little, "Could it be that he is a monster like you?"
This question stumped Xiao He. He now doubted what that thing was. If it was something from the underworld, it should not have a physical body, but it not only had one, but it was also invisible to people.
Although it is called a monster, I don’t feel that it has any intelligence.
Caught in a dilemma, it nodded and shook its head.
Shen Yanjin's dark eyes stared straight at Xiao Xu, making him break out in a cold sweat. He swallowed, opened his little mouth, and let out a small cry.
Seeing it like this, Shen Yanjin barely noticed a smile and said slowly: "Even you don't know what it is."
Xiao nodded and called out again.
"Yes, I understand."
Shen Yanjin responded neither lightly nor seriously, and took Xiao Xu out of the room.
…
In the afternoon, the scenery is bright and the warm wind blows through the leaves, making a rustling sound.
Xiao Xu, who had just finished his meal, lay on Shen Yanjin's lap, his round little eyelids drooping, and he looked sleepy and confused.
Shen Yanjin was sitting in a wheelchair, holding an old book in his hand. From the three words "奇志异" (strange stories and strange things) on the book, one could guess that he was reading something about spirits, ghosts, and gods.
"Master...Master, there's been a murder in the village."
Qiu Xiaoan's forehead was covered in sweat and he was panting while speaking.
The quiet scene was suddenly broken.
Shen Yanjin put down the book, frowned, and asked in a cold voice: "Tell me what happened."
"yes."
Then Qiu Xiaoan talked a lot, completely waking up the drowsy Xiao He.
Xiao Yan listened quietly to what happened and came up with the answer in his mind.
After Qiu Xiaoan finished speaking, it grabbed Shen Yanjin's collar and flapped its wings.
"I understand. Lead the way."
Qiu Xiaoan nodded and took over the job of pushing the wheelchair. Normally, when he went on a long trip or went to some complicated roads, Chen Wang would be by his side to serve him, but in the past two days, Chen Wang was sent out to investigate the bridge incident, so this job fell into Qiu Xiaoan's hands.
Qiu Xiaoan took a deep breath, his hands trembling a little. Although it was not the first time he was close to his master, it was the first time he was so close and pushed his master's wheelchair.
He was a little nervous.
The villagers gathered at the entrance of the village where the murder occurred. The relatives of the deceased cried heart-wrenchingly and held the body tightly, refusing to let go.
When Ana Shen arrived, the village chief was stroking his forehead with a headache and sighing repeatedly.
“Mr. Shen, you are finally here.”
"Well, I know what happened. Qiufeng Mountain has been uneasy lately. The village chief should ask the villagers to be more careful."
Upon hearing this, the village chief exhaled heavily and said distressedly, "I thought what happened two years ago would never happen again, but it seems that's impossible."
Two years ago, the villagers were collectively infected with a strange plague, and more than a dozen people died. The area was forcibly sealed off by the government. Later, it was Shen Yanjin, who was only eight years old, who saved the lives of the entire village.
