How could it be the two of them?!
Xiao Ruyu and Doctor Yang were walking further and further away, and Eleven wanted to catch up with them.
There seemed to be an invisible barrier in front of him, and he watched the figures of the two gradually disappear between heaven and earth.
"Little Princess!"
Eleven shuddered all over and suddenly woke up.
He cried out in surprise and sat up suddenly, his hands still stretched out.
Xiao Ruyu heard the noise outside the door and left Doctor Yang and pushed the door open.
Seeing Eleven sweating profusely, she quickly took a handkerchief to wipe his forehead.
[Eleven, is this a nightmare? ]
Seeing that Eleven was still in shock, Xiao Ruyu couldn't help but ask.
【What did you dream about that made you so nervous? 】
Shi Ding calmed down, recalled the scene in his dream, and was about to answer.
"hiss--"
Eleven suddenly felt the pain coming from his arm and cried out in pain.
Xiao Ruyu looked down and found that blood was oozing out from the place where the wound was bandaged.
【Your wound! 】
[Don't move. I'm going to find my master now.]
Seeing Eleven's wound torn, she nervously rushed to the door and went to another room to find Doctor Yang.
Their conversation was interrupted, and Eleven could only swallow his words.
A moment later, Xiao Ruyu hurried over with Doctor Yang.
He kept muttering, "Why is it torn again?"
Although he sounded dissatisfied, he still carefully uncovered the bandaged wound.
After carefully bandaging the wound again, Doctor Yang patted Eleven's shoulder lightly with some emotion.
"Eleven, the little princess really cares about you."
He spoke very heavily, and Eleven was stunned when he heard Xiao Ruyu speak.
【Master, you are jealous again. 】
"Master, don't be jealous. The little princess doesn't side with you."
Doctor Yang spoke in a sarcastic tone while packing his medical box.
He picked up the medical box and was about to leave when he remembered what happened just now at the government office.
I was so focused on arguing with Xiao Ruyu that I forgot about the government's investigation.
"Master just went to the government office to check, and those people have been settled."
Xiao Ruyu nodded obediently.
[That's good, just wait for them to go home one by one.]
Doctor Yang frowned tightly, paused his movements, and spoke after careful consideration.
"Little Princess, don't forget the purpose of our visit to Miaojiang this time."
"The little prince's illness won't last much longer, so it's best for us to find the location of the poisonous insect as soon as possible."
"We have already wasted a lot of time."
Eleven saw his eyes on her and quickly proved it.
"Eleven is no problem, we can set off another day."
Xiao Ruyu stopped his action and remained silent.
After a moment, she spoke slowly.
[Let's set off in two days, to let Eleven's injury heal. ]
Doctor Yang didn't say anything, just said, "Little Princess, make your own decision."
Then he turned away.
Eleven looked at Doctor Yang and thought that it was because of him that they could not set off immediately.
He lowered his head and clenched his fingers, feeling a surge of guilt in his heart.
"Little princess, was your trip delayed because of the National Day?"
When Xiao Ru was lost in thought, he suddenly heard this sentence and reacted.
[It's not because of the National Day holiday. We need to wait a few days before leaving. I haven't been to the government office yet.]
She quickly spoke to comfort him, fearing that Eleven would feel upset about this matter.
[Before leaving, I have to go to the government office. ]
"Why is this? Haven't the government officials already been settled?"
Eleven looked at her with some confusion.
Xiao Ruyu gently pinched his palm and reminded him.
[You forgot that Wang Xiaozhuang has not been found.]
She sighed, and thought of the corpses on the ground, with a hint of gloom in her eyes.
[Even if there is only a corpse left, we must find it and send it back to its roots. ]
Seeing Xiao Ruyu getting depressed, Eleven wrapped his warm palm around her little hand.
"Don't be sad, little princess. Anything is possible. Maybe Wang Xiaozhuang was not abducted here at all."
【I hope so.】
She sighed softly and rested her chin on Eleven's palm.
…
Three days later.
Eleven's injuries have mostly healed, and the three are ready to continue their journey.
Before leaving, Xiao Ruyu found Doctor Yang.
[Master, let's go to the government office and report before we leave.]
"Why is that?"
Doctor Yang paused in packing his luggage and looked at her in confusion.
【Wang Xiaozhuang has not been found yet.】
Xiao Ruyu repeated the same words to him again.
After hearing this, Doctor Yang nodded approvingly.
"If the little princess hadn't mentioned it, Master would have almost forgotten about it."
"I just happened to pass by the government today, so I reported it to the government."
When he arrived at the government office, Xiao Ruyu saw from afar that there were many people gathered in front of the government office.
Her eyelids twitched and she had a bad feeling in her heart.
"It's on fire!"
Doctor Yang exclaimed and motioned Xiao Ruyu to look up.
From afar, flames from the government office were rising into the sky and black smoke had enveloped the entire government office.
[Oh no, hundreds of government officials are still inside! ]
Xiao Ruyu didn't care about the huge fire and pulled Doctor Yang over.
The closer we got, the bigger the fire became, and the pungent black smoke penetrated into our nostrils.
It was not until he arrived at the gate of the government office that Xiao Ruyu realized that this was the same method used in the tea shop.
[The fire-burning technique again! Damn the evil cult! ]
She roared in her heart and turned around to put out the fire.
Looking at the indifferent people, Doctor Yang felt furious.
"Hurry up and put out the fire! What are you standing there for?"
The people then became confused and scrambled to fetch their buckets.
Xiao Ruyu covered her mouth and nose and wanted to rush in with the bucket of water.
Doctor Yang stopped her and shook his head.
"The fire inside is too big, Master, go in first."
After saying that, he rushed in without looking back.
Before long, Doctor Yang came out stumbling.
His face was blackened by smoke and the bucket in his hand was nowhere to be found.
[Master, what is the situation inside? ]
Seeing him come out, Xiao Ruyu hurriedly stepped forward and asked nervously.
Doctor Yang looked ashen, and most of his sleeves were burned off. He fell to the ground with dull eyes.
Some people among the people clicked their tongues repeatedly, and their words expressed sympathy.
"These people were supposed to return home today, but the government asked them to come here to take statements."
"Once you go in, who knows if you will be able to come out."
Xiao Ruyu became anxious upon seeing this, and tried to use his spiritual power to summon rain to put out the fire, but Doctor Yang held his hand down.
He shook his head, his words trembling a little.
"It's too late. All the people inside have already..."
Doctor Yang couldn't bear to continue and clenched his fists.
After burning for two hours, the fire was finally put out.
Looking at the charred and unrecognizable corpses, Doctor Yang finally couldn't bear it anymore and punched the pillar.
“How many lives are lost!”
