Chapter 873 Our Family Will Follow You Through Life and Death
“Is it dawn?”
“It’s dawn. Did you sleep well?”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened. This was the best night she had slept in the past few days. The two little babies were sleeping between them. Yan Kuan looked at Shen Xiaoxiao’s hazy eyes and his heart softened. The two little ones slept very well. Therefore, this night could be considered the best night he had slept.
“Why are you awake so early?”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the two little pigs who were still sleeping soundly and asked Yan Kuan quietly. Moreover, there was breakfast on the table. Did he already go out?
“You went out?”
“Yes, I woke up a little earlier than you. I went out to inquire about some news. I fetched water for you, went to wash up, and then had breakfast.”
“Okay.”
Shen Xiaoxiao asked Yan Kuan while was.h.i.+ng up, “What’s the situation outside? When are we going to find the secret guards? Will we go there later? Or will we wait until night?”
Yan Kuan’s heart sank. Seeing that Shen Xiaoxiao had sat down to eat, he said slowly,”No rush. After you’ve finished eating, I have something to tell you.”
Shen Xiaoxiao held the vegetable ball in her hand and was stunned for a moment. What had really happened?
She swallowed the food in two or three mouthfuls and then looked at Yan Kuan and said, “What’s wrong? What happened again?”
“Dark 1 and the others are all in trouble.”
“Ah? What do you mean?”
“Ah Cai told me just now that a team of heavenly soldiers had come to help the chief personally find evil children. At that time, I was a little curious and suspected that it was Dark 1 and the others. So, I went up the mountain and found that they were indeed our dark guards, and they seemed very strange.”
“Strange? How strange?” “They seemed to be possessed and did not have any thoughts at all. You have to know that Dark 1, Dark 2, Dark 4, and even other dark guards had all experienced the highest level of anti-hypnosis training. It is almost impossible to control their minds. But now, without exception, they are all controlled, so I thought it was very strange.”
“All of them were controlled?”
“Yes, they looked like puppets that were being controlled. There was no other reaction at all. Moreover, they even attacked me when they saw me.”
“Didn’t they say that they didn’t know anything?” “Smell. I think they judged based on smell.”
Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t know what else to ask. Relying on smell, not relying on their own eyes, and listening to orders. What was going on? How did Shen Guoan do it?
“How did Shen Guoan do it?”
“I thought about it all the way back. I think the only possibility is when we met the snake, because I heard them say that they smelled a strange fragrance.”
“I think that the hidden fragrance is not as simple as a normal fragrance. Plus, Shen Guoan might have used some other method to add it all together. I guess that’s what it is now.”
“Fragrance? Yeah, I heard 19 mention it before. He also smelled the fragrance.”
“Could it be because of this?”
“I’m not completely sure, but it must be some kind of formation. If it was just medicine, it would be absolutely impossible to control my secret guards. So I think it must be some kind of strange formation spell.”
“How did this old man know all this?”
“Do you still remember what happened when you were young?”
Shen Xiaoxiao shook her head. It had been decades. How could she still remember?
So Shen Xiaoxiao thought for a while and finally said, “It’s been decades. How could I remember so much? But I always feel that the old man is similar and knows something about me.”
This should be the first time that the two of them had faced the fact that Shen Xiaoxiao had lived another life.
Yan Kuan just looked at Shen Xiaoxiao and did not ask any questions. This made Shen Xiaoxiao feel a little embarra.s.sed. She sighed and said, “When I woke up, I realized that I had returned to 15 years ago. In my previous life, I was imprisoned by Liu Yufei and the others for 10 years. Their goal was to get my Ghost Axe.”
Such a simple sentence made Yan Kuan frown. Xiaoxiao had omitted many things. She did not want him to know! As soon as this realization came out, he suddenly realized that perhaps Xiaoxiao had experienced something unacceptable in her previous life. For a moment, he felt a little nervous. What was going on? Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at Yan Kuan and realized that he had not got to the bottom of the matter. She let out a faint sigh of relief in her heart. Her appearance made Yan Kuan feel even more uneasy.
Shen Xiaoxiao also seemed to realize that she had said it too simply, so she added, “When I was handed over to Devon by you, I was rescued by Third Uncle. I was very simple and trusted Gu Yuehua in everything, so I was deceived by Liu Yufei and Pei Li. In the end, I was even imprisoned for 10 years.”
“What about me? What about me at that time?”
“I don’t know. At that time, you and I were separated. I spent the rest of my life in secret prison, so I didn’t know.”
Yan Kuan stopped asking questions. Seeing Shen Xiaoxiao let out a sigh of relief, he felt even more uncomfortable. Xiaoxiao must have been hiding something important from him.
However, Shen Xiaoxiao felt that it was enough to say this. It was too embarra.s.sing to say anything else.
“Then Shen Guoan didn’t appear in his previous life?”
“It’s not just Shen Guoan. Even Lin Jiahui didn’t appear. Many things are completely different. That’s why the old man said that the children shouldn’t exist.”
Yan Kuan already knew what these things meant, and it was very likely that Old Master Shen really knew some things. Now, he had many things to guard against. No matter what Old Master Shen wanted to do… He absolutely could not let him succeed.
Otherwise, not only would he lose his two children, but he would also lose his wife.
“I already have a plan in my heart. Don’t mention this again in the future. Don’t anyone mention this matter, understand?”
“I understand. I’m not stupid.” “Okay.”
“Then what should we do now?”
“Go to the bamboo house. I want to see what’s going on with the secret guards. And if it’s possible, I want to get rid of Shen Guoan. Xiaoxiao, you…”
“I don’t have any objections. I also think that if we get rid of him, everything will end. But what about the children? Bring them along
too?!
Yan Kuan glanced at the two little ones who were about to wake up. In the end, he said fiercely, “Bring them along.”
“Fortunately, you said bring them along. I’m really afraid of leaving the two of them here. If this place is discovered, they’ll be finished.”
Yan Kuan smiled helplessly and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “You must know that our current enemies have our former brothers. Once we really meet, our entire family will be wiped out. Moreover, there are ten secret guards, and they are all top-notch secret guards. Even I don’t dare to say that I can really escape from their hands safely. So, Xiaoxiao, are you afraid?”
“Hahaha, afraid? I picked them up in this life. As for the children–” Shen Xiaoxiao turned her head and glanced at the two children who had sat up from the bed. She smiled faintly and said, “Our family will follow you through life and death.”
Yan Kuan’s heart trembled. They would follow him through life and death.
“Good, we will be together through life and death!”
