Originally, she was going to track down the black red branch doll, but now there was another strange tribal ruin that caught her attention.
It was impossible to leave, so I simply stayed in an acquaintance's village and carefully planned what to do next.
Shi Lingyao planned this and asked, "It's getting late. If you have any questions, we'll talk about it tomorrow. Is there any place for us to stay in the village? I may have to bother you for a few days."
Xiaoxiao was the first to raise his hands in welcome: "Yes, yes, that's great! Not to mention disturbing you for a few days, Doctor Shi, you just settled here, and we have a place for you to live!"
Jiang Heng also nodded: "There is quite a lot of place to live, but I'm afraid we need to clean it up first. Although we will protect the house from being crushed by the snow, the dust in the house is probably..."
Lin Yan immediately responded: "It doesn't matter! It's easy for us to do these things ourselves. I'm very grateful to have a place to live!"
Jiang Heng thought for a while and looked at Qin Ying: "I remember Miss Qin that there is a vacant yard next to your house..."
Qin Ying nodded and agreed happily: "Yes, the courtyard next to mine is empty. There are three houses in the courtyard. Doctor Shi's family lives in one, and the other two rooms can be shared by the three brothers."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yan and the others subconsciously turned their faces and looked at Jing Hexuan and Shi Lingyao.
Shi Bao was sitting on Jing Hexuan's lap drinking hot tea. Hearing this, he nodded repeatedly: "Shi Bao wants to live with his mother!"
Jing Hexuan raised the corner of his mouth, said nothing, and went to hold the water glass in Shi Bao's hand.
Because Shi Bao was anxious to express his position, the water cup in his hand was unstable. He saw the hot water swaying and about to spill out, but he held it firmly with his hand.
Shi Lingyao was about to explain, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of Jiang Heng's pale face, and an idea flashed in his mind. All the previous things came to his mind, full of incredible and unexpected things.
Could it be possible that he...
Seeing that Shi Lingyao didn't say anything and just acquiesced, Jiang Heng calmly lowered his eyelashes and smiled slightly, saying: "Of course that's the best, but the courtyard has been uninhabited for a long time, so I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money." Take some time to clean.”
Qin Ying put down the teapot in her hand, with a graceful smile: "Then I'll help..."
Lin Yan and Zhang Xing jumped up immediately.
Li Yue also stood up, bowed his hands, and said politely with a smile: "How can I bother the girl like this? We are used to doing housework, so please don't bother the girl with anything that comes easily."
Qin Ying looked a little embarrassed and smiled.
Her words and deeds are that of a typical lady, dignified and virtuous. When everyone refuses, she does not force her, but just gives a small blessing: "If you guys have any needs, just ask me."
Shi Lingyao stood up and said goodbye to them with a smile: "Since we have a place to go, let's go there first, pack up and have a rest early, and we will talk in detail tomorrow morning."
Qin Ying walked to the door first: "Then let me take you there."
Xiaoxiao immediately jumped up and ran out the door first: "It's getting late, so I'll say goodbye too!"
Shi Lingyao didn't usually use his power of mental exploration to listen to other people's hearts. Seeing her acting so interestingly, he subconsciously wanted to gossip.
As her thoughts flowed, she heard Xiaoxiao's inner voice that was deafening: I don't want to be the last to leave if I am alone and alone! In case Miss Qin misunderstands that I am having an affair with the village leader again! In all conscience, I am the one who looks forward to drinking their wedding wine the most!
She paused on her feet and suddenly laughed.
Lin Yan asked strangely: "What's wrong with Doctor Shi?"
Jing Hexuan hugged Shi Bao and turned around.
She smiled and shook her head.
It's a pity that Xiaoxiao is a human. If she could be a member of her own tribe, such a smart and interesting girl would be very interesting to get along with.
Lin Yan and the others quickly packed out three rooms. Qin Ying brought them several clean and thick quilts, which were washed and kept for later use.
Although they were misunderstood as a family of three, it was impossible to live in one house.
In the end, she, Shi Bao and Da Baihu were assigned to sleep in the main room, Jing Hexuan was in the next room, and the other three people squeezed into the west wing.
Originally, Jing Hexuan wanted Li Yue to come with him. Li Yue trembled when he heard this, and immediately became energetic. He clasped his fists and declined: "This subordinate is dishonest in sleeping, so I won't stay in the same room with you!"
Lin Yan pouted secretly. Among the three of them, Li Yue was the most honest sleeper.
Of course, out of comradeship, he chose not to expose it.
Endless darkness enveloped the earth, heavy snow covered the sky like cotton wool, the howling wind gradually weakened, but the biting cold remained unabated.
The charcoal fire in the house burned all night long, and the warmth filled the air with a slight crackling sound, brewing a sweet drowsy feeling.
The window coffin made a crisp sound.
Shi Lingyao slowly opened his eyes.
Beside him, Shi Bao slept with his belly bulging and snoring like a pig.
My mother raised this child very well. He is polite, well-behaved, smart and cute. Shi Bao has changed from the little monster he was at the beginning. Now Shi Bao is a veritable human baby.
She woke up from her sleep and suddenly realized that she had been rising at sunrise and resting at sunset like a real human being.
At first, it was just at the request of my mother and in line with the remaining habits from my time as a human being. Even if I stayed in bed, I would stay awake all night, either tossing red branches or tossing myself. Now I have actually fallen asleep without realizing it.
She stared into the dark void with her eyes open, but there was no other movement.
The sudden awakening was not caused by any noise, but by a strange pull from deep within.
Something seemed to be calling her.
Right inside her, deep in her consciousness.
But as she pursued the voice, she did not enter a deeper dream, but suddenly woke up.
For some reason, she felt that there should be something outside the village at this moment.
With this in mind, she didn't hesitate much, got up gently, put on her coat and got out of bed.
Shi Bao murmured "Mother..." and turned over.
She patted his little butt gently and waited quietly for the little guy's breathing to calm down again before leaving quietly.
The world was in chaos, everything was silent, and the sound of falling snow was like the gentle footsteps of the wind.
She stepped lightly and quickly passed by the houses in the stockade. She quickly left the stockade and headed northwest.
Although the world was dark, she could see things not with her eyes but with her mind, so she walked through the darkness empty-handed and arrived near a small hill.
A subtle sound of treading on the snow was heard.
She didn't need to move, she could spread out her thoughts and already have a panoramic view of everything around her.
Originally, she was worried about how to find the little guy, but she didn't expect that it would take no effort at all.
The little black baby, only about the size of a palm, was hiding vigilantly on top of a tall frozen tree, just squeezing into the gap between two branches.
Not to mention the dark night, even in broad daylight, this location is difficult to find.
She chuckled: "Why are you hiding here?"
The little thing thought she was just passing by and was still observing secretly. Unexpectedly, she discovered him. He was immediately startled and his small body froze.
