Shocking! All the city's wealthiest families are vying to claim kinship with me!

Chapter 257 It’s Xiaohuai, that’s right
Yan Xiao's old illness relapsed and he coughed up blood.

The guardian in white clothes couldn't help but persuade him: "Sir, your body is really not suitable for such torture anymore..."

Yan Xiao wiped off the blood, but said nothing with a cold face.

He watched Huo Jinse's body being sent back, and he didn't want to see Huo Mingjue end up like this.

He was destined to die, how could he live alone.

Yan Xiao had many spies in Jingzhou and received a tip-off that this manor was extremely unusual and Huo Mingjue was likely to be hiding here.

White-clothed men silently surrounded the manor, and he slowly got out of the car.

However, before he could enter the manor, he seemed to feel something and turned back to see the dense woods surrounding the manor.

He was a little suspicious, raised his hand and said to the guardian in white beside him: "Go..."

Before he finished speaking, an envoy in white appeared.

"Found the dungeon, Miss Huo is inside!"

The envoy in white was very familiar with Huo Mingjue and would never admit his mistake.

Yan Xiao hurried to the manor without any delay.

……

Huo Mingjue kept walking. She didn't know where she was going, but she knew that the farther away from the smell of blood, the better.

Finally, she followed the sound to the place where the water flowed, and slowly fell down...

Huo Mingjue's consciousness was fuzzy, looking at the blue sky, it was clearly so bright, but everything about him was extremely dark.

Do you really want to follow in Huo Jinse's footsteps and die an unexpected death?
This may be the fate in the legend. She used to not believe in fate at all, but now...

Huo Mingjue was about to close his eyes and lie down to wait for death, but he noticed a "swishing" sound in the water beside him, and something broke out of the water.

She opened her eyes, and even though her vision was blurred, she "recognized" the creatures in the water.

It looks like a human figure, but it is actually a piece of driftwood that can move.

Not only that, this piece of driftwood does not have any murderous intent...

"Xiaohuai?!" Huo Mingjue murmured.

Sure enough, when the human figure approached, Huo Mingjue smelled a strong fishy smell.

Xiao Huai blankly grabbed the big fish in her hand, as if she didn't expect Huo Mingjue to appear here.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaohuai screamed in fright, and realized that Huo Mingjue's situation was not right, so she quickly picked her up.

However, if you carry Huo Mingjue, you will lose the big fish in your hand.

Xiao Huai was very torn, but only children make choices. Xiao Huai finally decided to carry Huo Mingjue while helping Da Yu to help her.

One person and one fish were carried by puppets and ran back along the current.

Huo Mingjue: "..."

She was already half dead, but when she realized that she was in such close contact with a fish, the psychological shadow of the past came to her heart.

This is Xiao Huai.

Ah, it's that damn fish again.

Let me die instead of saving you.

……

When Huo Mingjue woke up, the sky was pitch black and he couldn't see his fingers.

Her five senses are sharp and she can hear and smell even if she cannot see.

In addition to the lingering fishy smell, there seemed to be the sound of running water in the distance, the smell of rich grass mixed with soil, and the sound of pheasants cuckooing in the mountains.

She was dazed for a moment, and subconsciously touched the position of her heart.

There seems to be some residual pain from before, but now there is temporary contact.

Is she temporarily saved?
"Squeak..."

The cabin she was in was pushed away.

Xiaohuai rushed over like a big dog.
