Chapter 428
He Miao and Fan Ranran walked from the remote house to the bustling street with baskets in their arms.

Songwu, a small town in the south of the Yangtze River near the water, has a small population but is quite affluent. The folk customs are simple and simple, which is very suitable for leisurely living.

But today, it seems to be a little different. There is a faint noise in the distance from far to near, which is not very real.

There was a faint irritability in the air, mixed with a trace of uncontrollable anger.

"Did you hear anything?" He Miao stopped and asked Fan Ranran who was beside her.

"Have it?"

Fan Ranran pricked up her ears, her high ponytail was scattered aside, revealing her small auricles.

She listened carefully, and seemed to have heard something:
"Could it be some kind of temple festival?"

He Miao shook his head slowly, feeling different, the hustle and bustle of the temple fair was wrapped in joy, but in the noise right now, He Miao felt a faint unease.

"Go and have a look." He Miao blinked and suggested to Fan Ranran.

Fan Ranran looked at He Miao's already bulky body, and nodded helplessly.She knew that she couldn't persuade He Miao.

The two got closer and closer. This time, it wasn't just someone's angry noise.

A summer breeze blew in, He Miao smelled a familiar smell, it was tung oil, tung oil used for fire.

The uneasiness in He Miao's heart became more and more real.

From a distance, she saw the crowd gathered together, holding torches in their hands, and saying something with righteous indignation.

Across the crowd, He Miao looked at the high stage, where a thin woman in white clothes was being tied to a tall wooden stake.

The woman's body was surrounded by a circle of firewood, and there were traces of pouring tung oil on it.

He Miao's eyes flicked across the woman's palm-sized melon-seeded face, her eyebrows and eyes were still slender, and she still looked like the little family jade that I still pitied, without any trace of time.

That fair and thin face was full of tears and the fear of being burned to death.

A trace of surprise flashed in He Miao's eyes, it turned out to be her.

"Ah, are they going to burn her alive?" Fan Ranran said belatedly.

He Miao stood there without moving, only listening to the crowd holding torches complain angrily:
"This witch has not aged for decades, has never been sick or died, what is it if she is not a witch?!"

"Burn the witch to death! Burn the witch to death!" The people below protested angrily.

In people's hearts, the fear of the unknown made them choose to stand together.Only by being as loud as possible seems to be able to dispel this uneasiness.

"I'll save her!" Fan Ranran couldn't stand it anymore, she pulled out her epee and said.

"Wait a minute~" He Miao reached out to stop Fan Ranran.

"Why, you don't want to save?"

Fan Ranran looked puzzled, frowned, and raised her voice.

"Don't worry."

He Miao spoke with a calm expression, motioned for Fan Ranran to come over, and briefly explained a few words to her.

It's not that you don't save people, it's that you have to pay attention to the method of saving people.

"Ah, what are you doing?!"

Everyone was making a fuss, when I heard a woman questioning in a high-pitched voice.

Everyone focused their attention, and saw a young and beautiful woman in Tsing Yi, her belly was raised high, and she was pregnant with Liujia.

There was a bit of charm in the woman's eyebrows, and she asked in panic.

"What do you know, woman, this is a witch!" The man holding the torch said impatiently.

The rest of the people taught He Miao in a hurry:
"You are pregnant with a baby, don't get involved in these things."

"Are you married? Why did you come out alone?"

The aunt with big arms and round waist persuasively advised He Miao:
"You're a foreigner, so you don't understand at first glance. This girl hasn't looked old for decades. Her parents have died long ago, and her husband has also died. I heard that there was an older brother before, but he is nowhere to be found.

"Only she is still alive, maybe she sucked her brother's spirit."

Others also rushed to add something,

"Hey, my stomach~" He Miao raised his upper body, holding his stomach and began to wail in a low voice.

Seeing her yelling for stomach pain with such a big belly, everyone took a step back in fright for fear of implicating themselves.

Everyone's attention was instantly attracted by He Miao.

Only then did He Miao take a deep breath, pursed her mouth, nodded and said: "Everyone said this, this girl must be a witch. No wonder my stomach hurts suddenly~"

Seeing that she had come to her senses, everyone nodded in relief.

"Ah, where did that witch go?" He Miao pointed to the stage and asked in panic.

Only then did the crowd come back to their senses and take a closer look. There was only a bunch of severed hemp rope on the stage, and there was no figure of the talented woman.

"It actually made that demon girl escape."

Everyone was discussing for a while, looking at each other with panic in their eyes.

He Miao took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention, and walked back slowly. She was a pregnant woman, and no one doubted her.

He Miao walked back step by step like this.

In the peaceful small courtyard, beside Fan Ranran, a thin woman in white clothes was crying until she saw He Miao came back, and hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects.

"I haven't seen you for many years. Miss He rescued me. It's a great kindness. Shuyu will never forget it."

That's right, the witch who was being burned to death by everyone was Chen Shuyu.Many years ago, He Miao met her in the demon world.

In order to obtain Baidi Mausoleum, she did not hesitate to kill her brother Chen Boyu.When Chen Boyu was dying, he snatched away the immortal grass that the big demon cultivator had picked from Yingzhou.

Eating immortality grass will naturally keep your appearance and life expectancy.

He Miao did not expect that after decades, he would meet Chen Shuyu again in this way.

At that moment, she only said calmly: "Miss Chen is being polite, it's just that the road is not fair."

There is no lack of deep politeness and alienation in the tone.

Just now, He Miao attracted everyone's attention by himself, and sent Fan Ranran to secretly rescue Chen Shuyu.

After all, even if Chen Shuyu is not here anymore.He Miao and Fan Ranran still had to live in the small town, and they still couldn't make a name for being involved with the witch.

"I don't know, Miss He has seen my brother again." When Chen Shuyu said this, she lowered her head and asked softly.

From the words of everyone just now, He Miao learned that her parents had passed away long ago, and her husband had also passed away.No wonder at this time, I thought of my brother.

"No." He Miao looked at the woman's messy bun and replied coldly.

Then he told Fan Ranran who was on the side: "Ranran, give this girl a few dozen taels of silver and escort her out of here."

Seeing this, Fan Ranran frowned, she didn't understand, didn't He Miao look the kindest?

She can even take in a monster, why can't she take in this pitiful looking woman.

He Miao said, then turned around and walked in, putting on an indifferent look.The puppy circled around her feet.

"Thank you, girl"

Seeing He Miao's resolute attitude, Chen Shuyu wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, bowed to He Miao again, and said with a choked voice.

Looking up again, there is nowhere to be seen the figure of the talented woman.

 Thank you for your recommendation tickets and monthly tickets, thank you~
  Why did I see this, only to find out that the article I wrote has cp, and I thought it was a poisonous point, it's numb.
