Chapter 1678 As long as Senior Sister is here, it won't be your turn to die. (41)
He acted as if nothing had happened.
Song Jinhuan was unaware of the deeper meaning behind his words, but seeing the praise in his tone, she couldn't help but feel a little shy and said with a smile, "It feels about the same as usual."
Aunt Li straightened her neck, and the admiration in her eyes increased even more. "As expected of our Little Song!"
"Hey? Where's Xiao Huo?" She glanced behind Song Jinhuan again, but couldn't see the young man through the low wall, so she asked casually.
Song Jinhuan recalled the last scene before she went to sleep and said honestly, "He didn't sleep well and is still resting."
Aunt Li didn't say anything, but simply gave a thumbs up.
Song Jinhuan entered the woods with some dry rations and was lucky enough to spot several pheasants hopping towards her.
It felt like food was delivered right to their door.
Without even blinking, she drew the arrows from her back and fired them one by one.
Then put it into a mesh bag.
It went incredibly smoothly.
Song Jinhuan subconsciously wiped the sweat from his face and paused for a moment.
He slowly moved his palm down until it stopped in front of her eyes.
Not a drop of sweat.
Her brow twitched, and she suppressed the strange feeling.
Even the sensation of sweat dripping down my forehead was so clear.
The sun was blazing, and dappled shadows were cast upon her through the dense forest.
Song Jinhuan's gaze pierced through her fingers and met the dazzling sun.
He closed his eyes tightly.
Engulfed in darkness.
My heartbeat in my chest gradually intensified, as if pulling my soul downwards.
It kept falling.
She opened her eyes abruptly.
A cacophony of vendors' calls filled the air.
"Little Song, I'll take these mountain produce from your shop. Here's ten taels of silver." The shopkeeper smiled and stuffed the silver into her hand.
Song Jinhuan weighed the purse in her hand, feeling that something was amiss.
Shaking my head, I looked up at the bright sunshine outside the inn, and my mood improved a bit.
Today was very fruitful.
Meanwhile, in Xinghua Village, Huo Qingcang, accompanied by Aunt Li, was searching for people from house to house.
Aunt Li: "Brother Yang, have you seen Xiao Song?"
"No, I haven't seen him since the day of the banquet."
"Can't find them?"
"Could they still be in the mountains and haven't come out yet?"
"It's normal for Xiao Song to stay in the mountains for ten days or half a month." Seeing that the two looked a little unwell, Brother Yang offered a few more words of comfort.
Huo Qingcang glanced towards the mountain, then turned around silently, his steps exceptionally firm.
Aunt Li quickly chased after him, "Little Huo, where are you going?"
"Go into the mountains to find my wife." Don't let Huo Qingcang's seemingly simple-minded appearance fool you; the back of his head exudes a stubbornness that's hard to resist.
Brother Yang also caught up, saying, "I'll go look for it with you."
As a result, more and more villagers gathered along the short journey into the mountains.
Even the villagers of Willow Village, upon hearing the commotion, joined the search.
When Song Jinhuan returned, he ran right into these people.
One pair of eyes stared at dozens of other eyes, blinking at each other.
In an instant, the surroundings became extremely quiet; one could even hear the sound of leaves falling.
"Where are you all going?" Song Jinhuan asked first, looking at Huo Qingcang, who was in the lead, in surprise.
"Looking for you." A smile spread across the handsome young man's lips as he walked blushingly to Song Jinhuan's side.
"Looking for me?" Song Jinhuan looked puzzled.
Aunt Li flicked her hand, immediately attracting Song Jinhuan's attention.
"Xiao Huo thought you had gotten into trouble in the mountains because you hadn't come back for several days."
A few days?
But didn't she just leave home this morning?
