Xiao Nanhui put down the bow and arrow, muttering to himself, "Oh my! This arrow actually went through the wall! What if it hurts someone?"
The cold wind blew up the dead leaves, and the crow on the tree cried "ah ah" twice, then flapped its wings and flew away.
The last of the "spectators" left the scene, and the surroundings fell completely silent. Xiao Nanhui rolled his eyes, unsure if he had timed it right. He made up his mind, slung his bow across his shoulders, and suddenly leaped forward, taking advantage of the gap in the courtyard wall and vaulting into the yard.
It was as quiet inside the wall as outside. Xiao Nanhui squatted at the foot of the wall and listened for a while. When he found that no one was chasing him outside, he stood up in some surprise and doubt.
The defense of the Black Feather Camp was truly bewildering. Previously, she had been hiding here and there and had even been shot to death, but now she came in brazenly and nothing happened.
Did Xiao Zhun come here last night? Was he ordered to come through the main gate, or was he like her...
Xiao Nanhui didn't want to continue guessing. She forced herself to look around, thinking that it was better to see it with her own eyes.
The villa looked desolate at first glance. The courtyard was bare, without even a dead branch or a few weeds to be seen. This was rare even in Chizhou. It seemed that someone had deliberately moved all the green plants and rockery in the courtyard in order to reveal the original layout of the house and prevent someone from hiding in it without being noticed.
Xiao Nanhui walked along the nearest corridor for a while and suddenly stopped.
Somewhere behind her, there was a shallow breathing sound. Although it was not very obvious, it did not escape her ears.
The next second, a small stone hit the back of her leg with a "pop".
She turned her head and saw a baby wearing only a middle shirt, looking at her from behind a pillar not far away.
When the other party saw Xiao Nan turned his head, he quickly shrank back, but the small cone bun on his head stuck out from behind the pillar, like a garlic sprout, which looked a bit funny.
Isn't this where the Bai family's daughter lives? Why is there a little brat here?
Xiao Nanhui pretended not to see it and turned to leave.
With a "pop" sound, another stone fell, and this time it landed right on her butt.
She turned around suddenly and glared at the culprit.
The "garlic sprout" realized that he was exposed and turned around to slip away, but Xiao Nanhui took a few big strides forward and grabbed his ear.
"You hit someone and you want to run away. Whose child are you? Why are you so rude?"
The garlic sprout twisted in her hand like a loach, and she was still very stubborn and stumbling to express her anger: "Bad, bad people, bullying children..."
This little brat is young, but he has a very bad temper.
The other party continued to struggle, but could not break free no matter what.
Xiao Nanhui smiled evilly.
She learned this skill from Du Juan, the successor of the "Dry Zen Hand" technique. How could she let a little brat escape so easily?
"What? You're allowed to throw stones at others, but they're not allowed to fight back? Even if I bully you, what do you think?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sharp sound of metal rubbing against stone, accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps.
Xiao Nanhui looked up and saw a woman in white, wearing only a single layer of clothing and barefoot, coming from the other end of the corridor.
She had heavy chains on her feet, and the sound just now was the sound of the chains rubbing against the ground. Because of the heaviness of her feet, she stumbled a little, but even so, her face remained calm, as if Xiao Nanhui was holding not someone of hers, but just a garlic sprout.
When Garlic Sprout saw the rescuers, he twisted even more happily: "Sister, save me! She, she bullied me!"
"Azhi, stop messing around." The woman called out softly. Although her voice was not harsh, the child instantly restrained his playful nature and hung on Xiao Nanhui's hand like a deflated bag.
Xiao Nanhui had no intention of making things difficult for a child, so he let go. Douzi lowered his head and walked over to hold the girl's hand. He rubbed his red ears with his other hand and secretly bared his teeth at Xiao Nanhui.
But Xiao Nanhui didn't care about his mood at all at this moment, her attention was all on the woman in white.
"Miss Bai, long time no see."
Bai Yun's misty eyes gently swept across her face, and he seemed to be confused for a moment.
Xiao Nanhui suddenly felt like he had nowhere to vent his tense hostility.
The other party didn't recognize her.
"We met in Xiao Zhun's tent."
She couldn't help but remind him, and the confusion on Bai Yun's face finally faded a little, and he became cold and indifferent again.
"My guilty daughter greets the Right General." Although she was bowing and apologizing, her attitude did not show any sign of humility. "My younger brother is young and recently lost his wet nurse. He has become even more willful. I have neglected to discipline him. If the Right General wants to punish him, please punish me."
He is such a bad guy without his wet nurse. If he loses his biological father in the future, won’t he become a devil?
Xiao Nanhui felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he couldn't tell whether he was uncomfortable with this sentence or simply disliked the person in front of him.
"He's the one being naughty, why should I punish you?"
"He is already seven years old, but his mind is still that of a two or three-year-old. He can't even speak clearly, let alone reason. Right General, please have pity on him and forgive him this time."
This surprised Xiao Nanhui a little.
Bai Heliu's sons have all died in the battlefield, and the only one left is actually a fool.
If she blamed him now, it would seem like she was being too narrow-minded.
"I won't pursue this matter any further."
Every moment she spent in front of this woman made her feel more uncomfortable. Xiao Nanhui decided to get straight to the point and state the purpose of his visit.
