HEART PROTECTION: CHAPTER 9
In the courtyard, Mrs Zhou and the Daoist priest froze in place after hearing Yan Hui's words
It was quiet for a long time
In the end, it was the sound of Old Lady Xiao's coughing that snapped Mrs Zhou back to her senses She shouted loudly: ”Oh Heavens! This hussy dares to say such disrespectful things!” Saying this, she waddled forward two steps ”This old wo to teach you a lesson for Grandma Xiao”
She hadn't finished speaking when Yan Hui coldly laughed Yan Hui hadn't even moved when she saw Mrs Zhou suddenly twist her foot Mrs Zhou unexpectedly fell down and cried out It seeround and hollered, unable to get up
Yan Hui's brow slightly twitched Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a rock roll off to the side
Yan Hui originally planned to teach the human trafficker a lesson if she really did run up to take the jadeBut to Yan Hui's surprise, a rock starred in the key moment
Yan Hui turned her gaze toward Tian Yao He was looking down and supporting the somewhat helpless and at a loss Old Lady Xiao He really looked like a fool that didn't know anything
The Daoist priest went to help Mrs Zhou as lying on the ground and yelling in pain This time, Yan Hui kicked a rock and scored a direct hit on his knee The Daoist priest cried out and fell in a pile with Mrs Zhou
Yan Hui was contemptuous toward the two: ”Heheh, since Daoist priest is so powerful that you can extend one's life by ten years, then why don't you chant some scripture now? Cure your bones and the shrew's too”
Mrs Zhou cursed toward the sky
The Daoist priest actually didn't say a word He pulled and dragged Mrs Zhou toward the courtyard exit He irl isn't to be trifled with”
Yan Hui watched the two stunored them and scoffed Yan Hui turned her head, and she saw Tian Yao support the constantly coughing Grandma Xiao out of the courtyard and into her room He didn't even look at Yan Hui
Frole reaction However, Yan Hui saw that the ground where he was standing had some pits where stones used to be
Yan Hui was actually shocked She didn't expect the demon
to help her in this kind of situation
When night fell, the two stayed in the same roo He didn't bring up the day's events It was actually Yan Hui, who had been laying on the bed for a while, that couldn't resist asking: ”About what happened today, you're actually not an unreasonable deh you put a curse in the mantous”
There was no response co from Tian Yao in the corner The room sank into silence
After getting accustomed to this demon's taciturn personality, Yan Hui paid it no mind She looked into the pitch-black darkness in front of her and asked: ”What tribulation did you pass that made you like this?”
Yan Hui still didn't hear a reply Right when she thought the rest of the day would pass in silence before she slept, she heard a self-deprecating laugh from over there: ”I passed the tribulation, but I didn't pass the heart”
Yet at this ti mood She only pulled over the blanket, rolled over, and said: ”I asked you a question, so a sih Don't pretend to be so intellectual The night really makes people be dramatic”
””
Not long afterwards, Yan Hui's steady breath could be heard from the bed
”Unexpectedly flippant” Tian Yao's voice was picked up by the breeze by theand dispersed into the quiet night
A h theand fell onto his body He looked at the bright ht and closed his eyes His hter that played in his head day in, day out, and couldn't be dispersed
The next day, Yan Hui followed Tiao Yao as going to the fields to work She was discussing with hiet the chance to tell you Let's talk about it today You go by yourself to work I'll go investigate theto run away, you don't have to keep an eye on ht be faster”
She finished talking but hadn't reached their family's plot yet Fro by their field
White silk clothing Delicate features The same dull expression as before
It was Zhenren Qi Yun
How did she find this place?
Yan Hui ran over with small steps
steps She crouched by Zhenren Qi Yun: ”How did you get here by all by yourself?” Knowing that Zhenren Qi Yun was different from before made it a lot easier for Yan Hui to talk to her
”Where's your snakethat's not right, that crippled man? He cares about you so ht?”
Zhenren Qi Yun didn't respond Yan Hui thought a bit: ”Well that's fine I need to find him, so I'll take you with me Do you re out to help her up However, once Yan Hui's hand touched Zhenren Qin Yun's ar She suddenly grabbed Yan Hui's hand
Yan Hui froze: ”Wha”
She peered into Zhenren Qi Yun's eyes, and she saw Zhenren Qi Yun staring back wide-eyed Her eyes were filled with alar extremely terrible
When she was setting that beaten into her byZhenren Qi Yun's terrified eyes, Yan Hui felt the same chill of fear from her childhood down her back
She opened her mouth
Yan Hui saw that Zhenren Qi Yun's slightly pale lips were violently tre, but her jaere locked tight They were locked so tight it made her entire body start to shake
