The light wasn't too bright and he couldn't see the man's face clearly, but he recognized his figure.
It must be Qiu Yu!
I'm a little surprised. Qiu Yu is a very nice girl. Isn't it a bit destructive to come to the kitchen to steal midnight snacks?
He had almost never seen Qiu Yu come to the kitchen to steal food.
"What are you doing! It's really..."
Qiu Yu's appearance disrupted his plan, but fortunately it was not a big problem. At worst, he deliberately and accidentally attracted Chun Tan's attention.
"You idiot, hold on, you must wait until I arrive..."
Just when Shen Yi was going crazy, the two people outside the door quickly saw each other. Although they were both Tsurumi Chuyun's maids, there was competition and involution among colleagues, and the relationship between the two was not superficial. So harmonious.
At the same time, both sides asked the same question in unison: "Why are you here?"
Whether it was Chun Tan or Qiu Yu, their tone was a little weak.
Each of them immediately guessed why the other was here, but in the end it was Chun Tan who reacted faster than Qiu Yu and took the lead to speak aggressively: "Qiu Yu, are you here to enter the kitchen and steal food?"
"What are you talking about? I'm just going to the woodshed to return the broom."
"The woodshed is not located in this direction!"
"I...I...then what are you doing here?"
"I'm going to get water for the lady."
"But why didn't you bring a bucket?"
"I just forgot."
"I'm feeling a little uncomfortable today. I went to the wrong place."
"..."
The two of them didn't dare to get into too much entanglement, after all, they both had ghosts in their hearts.
No one wants to make things worse.
Watching Chuntan walk back, Shen Yi, who was hiding in the dark and observing, looked around. Finally, Qiu Yu walked away, avoiding the moonlight and darting into the shadows not far away.
Silver gauze was sprinkled in front of the hall, and the yellow leaves were blown down by the night wind. The branches slowly fell and rotated back and forth.
Chuntan, who was a little flustered, stopped and stopped walking forward.
She looked at the fallen leaves in a daze, but what she was thinking in her heart was: "Has Qiu Yu gone far?"
I looked back and hesitated, but still chose to go back.
People like them come from poor families and are used to a simple diet. The leftover delicacies from the mountains and seas eaten by their masters are extremely precious to them.
"This damn girl..."
The late-night snack operation was sabotaged, which made her feel resentful and cursed Qiu Yu secretly.
Although she turned back, she did not act as arrogantly as before. Instead, she blew out the fire in the lantern and moved forward cautiously against the wall in the dark. She must have thought that the other party would turn back and kill him just like she did.
However, being too focused was also a drawback. She didn't notice Shen Yi hiding behind a pile of wooden boards not far away, because except for his abdomen, his scales were all dark black and red, which allowed him to stand out in the dark. Hide yourself.
Seeing her turning back and walking farther and farther, until she reached the round arch, Shen Yi immediately raised his paws and pushed the top wooden board forward, then quickly laid his body back, trying to let the pile of wooden boards cover him completely The body blocks.
Snapped!
The sound of the wooden board hitting the ground was particularly abrupt in the silent night sky.
Chuntan was startled, and her body trembled violently.
At the same time, this kind of movement also attracted Qiu Yu's attention. Chun Tan really didn't think wrong, Qiu Yu turned back.
She squatted behind a cypress tree and did not dare to make a sound. After blowing out the lantern, she looked in the direction of the round arch.
Shen Yi's timing of overturning the wooden board was very clever. While Chun Tan was startled, a half-person-high potted plant happened to be next to her to hide in.
Without thinking, she hid directly in, sticking half of her head out to look at the pile of wooden boards.
"Is there anyone else?" she thought to herself, "It's too careless."
She was very sure that there was someone hiding behind the pile of wooden boards. It was definitely not Qiu Yu. She couldn't be that fast!
As the eldest lady's personal maid, her status is higher than that of other servants.
After all, even dogs have blood and are divided into three, six or nine grades.
She was hesitant to go over and catch the man out, but she was a little scared.
The reason for her fear is very simple. Among the servants who came back with "Face", there are many who are psychic. Although their cultivation level is low, they are not something that an ordinary person like her can handle.
If he angered the other party and accidentally killed himself, it would not be easy for the lady to find the murderer even if he wanted to pursue the case.
As for asking family elders to trace their origins?
How can it be?
There are plenty of maids in the Tsurumi Mansion who can serve as personal maids, and there is no shortage of her. Why bother to mobilize troops for the death of an ordinary person...
After thinking about it, it was still more important to save her life, so she didn't dare to act rashly.
There was a stalemate for a while, and just when she was about to pretend not to notice and stand up and go straight back to her house, Shen Yi made a move first!
In the darkness, a dragon raised its head and looked left and right "nervously", as if to confirm if there was anyone around.
Seeing this scene, Chun Tan, who was about to stand up, suddenly squatted back down.
"What is that?" Her face turned pale, and she couldn't see very clearly in the dark. She usually would only scare herself when she found something strange.
"It can't be that some evil spirits have come in... No, this is the Qingyuan Sect, how could there be evil spirits?"
His mind was wandering, but Shen Yi had already walked out from behind the wooden board. His huge body was hard to miss even in the dark.
If you want to act, then do it all.
call! call! call!
In the open space, he flapped his dragon wings twice, causing gusts of wind. He seemed to feel that the sound of the dragon wings was too loud, so he reluctantly chose to walk.
As he walked, he looked left and right, acting very carefully for fear of attracting attention.
After potting the plant, Chun Tan relaxed after seeing clearly that it was Shen Yi.
"Xuan Li? What is he doing out here?"
That sneaky look made it clear that he was not out to do good things.
Thinking that the lady had recently cut off his food supply, Chuntan immediately realized that Xuanli was going to steal someone else's Beast Preserving Pill!
But she wasn't very sure. When she saw Shen Yi walking away, she quickly followed quietly. At this moment, she had forgotten all about late night snacks and Qiuyu!
Exposing Jiang Xuanli's bad deeds is also a great achievement!
She focused on following Shen Yi, but she didn't know that Qiu Yu behind her had noticed her, and she didn't know that Shen Yi's consciousness had been connected with hers. Shen Yi's eyes were curled up, and he was smiling.
"You Chuntan, are you so interested in me? Tsk, tsk, tsk."
Shaking his head, he did not look behind him, he was cautious yet careless.
After taking Chuntan around in a circle, he finally jumped out of the courtyard wall facing the north towards Dinglan Peak. Before jumping out, he intentionally or unintentionally swept the haystack beside him with his tail.
Chun Tan in the back was stunned.
"Jumped out? What should I do?"
It was not far from the front door and the back door. She didn't have the ability to climb the wall. If she walked through the door, Xuan Li would have disappeared long ago.
How to follow him?
When she was anxious, her eyes suddenly caught sight of the flowers and plants next to her. Shen Yi's tail whipped like a whip, damaging many of them, allowing her to see the scenery beyond the courtyard wall through the flowers and plants.
"Um?"
I don’t know when someone dug a hole into the originally intact courtyard wall. It’s not big enough, but it’s just big enough for a person to get in and out.
The dust left behind after the courtyard wall was destroyed in the soil showed that the hole appeared not long ago, but Chuntan, who only wanted to track Shen Yili's great achievements and increase his presence in front of the old witch, did not notice too many details and did not even think about it. I thought, and got out decisively.
As soon as he left the courtyard, Shen Yi's movement speed suddenly accelerated. In order to take care of Chuntan, he could only walk, which was a bit deliberate, but there was nothing he could do.
If it really flies, even if Chuntan grows ten legs, it won't be able to keep up.
We can only hope that maid Chuntan is not too smart and will not immediately suspect anything.
Spend at least ten minutes with yourself...not five minutes is enough!
"Come on, female warrior, the evil dragon's conspiracy is waiting for you to accomplish..."
