Chapter 57 They were all...

"Yeah." Bai Xiwei covered her mouth, "It seems that something happened."

Hua Mian said in a cold voice: "Can you let me go?"

Bai Xiwei let go of her hand and raised her chin: "Okay, okay, go quickly, and tell me if you see the person I'm looking for."

Hua Mian responded casually, and quickly entered the ancient street.

The closer he got to the depths, the more clearly Hua Mian could smell a strange smell.

It didn't smell bad at all, and it didn't even smell good. It made her feel sick to her stomach for no reason.

With her stomach churning, Hua Mian put her hands on the door of a yard beside her. The wooden door was loaded and opened inward.

Hua Mian hastily withdrew her hand, so she didn't fall down.

"Zhizhizhi——" A black mouse lying on the wood in the middle of the courtyard was startled, and fled around in a panic.

Yes, the smell is stronger.

Hua Mian raised her feet and crossed the threshold, slowly entering the courtyard.

The scent was strongest in that part of the garden.

Huamian stopped.

All kinds of peony flowers come into view, the flower disc is shallow cup-shaped, and the petals are colored with light pink, but it is gorgeous, fresh and elegant.

Hua Mian didn't go forward for a while, picked up a stone from under her feet, and threw it into the flowerbed.

The stone hit the petals of the peony flower, and finally fell to the ground without causing any disturbance.

"Squeak--" Hua Mian bent down, reached out and pinched the rushing black mouse tail, and threw it gently. The black mouse scratched a "beautiful" arc in the air and smashed into a peony flower.

The peony flower rolled up its petals and dodged consciously.

Another peony plant extended its rhizome, and wrapped its petals firmly around the black mouse's tail.

The black rat screamed frantically, struggling with its limbs.

Huamian threw another stone, which hit the root of the peony plant. The black mouse struggled to break free, jumped back onto the railing, and quickly escaped from the flowerbed.

Hua Mian also saw its tail clearly.

Obviously missing a section.

It seems that this peony has a corrosive effect.

I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but the smell became more intense, with a rancid smell.

These peonies are still looking up to the sky with their petals open.

So weird.

"Is anyone there?" Hua Mian turned around and called out in the courtyard.

No one responded.

Hua Mian simply set off directly, walked to the inner house, opened the door to look for someone.

This ancient street was exactly the one she came to with Feng Xiaoyu in the morning, but they only had time to ask a family before they were persuaded to leave by Qiqi's words.

She hasn't visited this place yet.

"Boom..."

The sound of something hitting a hard object startled Hua Mian, who followed the sound to find the West Wing.

There is only a small wooden box here.

Hua Mian walked forward slowly, lifted the red cloth covering the wooden box, and then opened the box.

A little girl with disheveled hair raised her face slightly, with fear and panic that had not faded away, and a trace of happiness on her face.

The girl in the box saw the sun again, her eyes turned red.

"Sister, save me, please, take me out of here..." Her complexion was still slightly pale, and her voice was trembling.

She held Hua Mian's skirt with trembling hands.

"I, let's get out of here soon, yes, I, we can't take it here anymore..." The girl seemed to be talking to herself, with a flustered expression.

She crawled out of the box: "Sister, let's go!"

The girls' clothes were extremely messy, and their eyes were wandering, as if they were afraid of something.

Hua Mian softened her expression: "Where is your family?"

The girl suddenly froze, covered her head, and murmured: "Yes... where is my family..."

"I, I seem to remember..."

"He, they were all..."
