Starting from helping someone rob a wedding, he was forced to hide in the Sunset Sect

The white snowflakes slowly fell, landing on the snow and covering the entire mountain. The sky was overcast and the cold wind was howling, gradually covering the snow-covered peaks.

The river water began to freeze in the cold, making a crisp sound.

People living nearby in this kind of weather prepare food in advance. This month is the coldest time of the year, so they can stay at home if possible.

The woman gently rubbed Lin Xiaoya's hair. She snuggled in her mother's arms, suppressing her desire to drink blood.

"Mom, I want to drink blood again."

Her eyes began to turn red, and her originally clear and bright eyes were now covered with red bloodshot.

The woman stretched out her hand and let the little girl in her arms suck her blood.

Lin Xiaoya returned to normal after sucking some blood. She had a desire for blood since she was a child and had to drink blood every once in a while, otherwise she would not be able to control her body and would become out of control.

"Mom, I'm sorry for drinking your blood again."

"Be good, it's okay, just don't drink other people's blood."

The woman put her down and stood up.

"Mom is leaving, take care of yourself."

Lin Xiaoya stretched out her hand, but couldn't touch her mother.

"do not go!"

She remembered that her mother was dead and it was just a dream, but Lin Xiaoya still wanted to hold her hand. Even if it was a dream, these hands were not real.

Lin Xiaoya suddenly woke up from her dream and looked around panically. She was still in the tree hole.

The flame of the bonfire has become extremely weak. Without the addition of new fuel, the light of the bonfire gradually dims. It seems that the bonfire has reached the end of its life and is gradually about to go out. Only faint embers are still flickering.

The person who saved her is gone, and she is left alone in this tree hole under the snowy mountain.

Although they had only met once, she still felt a little lonely, wondering if it was caused by the dream she had just had.

She forgot how long it had been since she last communicated with others. Because she was an outlier, she was afraid of hurting others when she lost control, so she stayed away from the crowd.

She just went out with a sword to hunt wild animals, but was mistaken for a robber.

That time she wanted to ask the merchant if he had any food, because she really couldn't find any wild animals or fruits to eat. Normally, her physical strength was only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people.

When she was about to ask if he could give her some food, the merchant thought she was asking him for food, so he put a bag of dry food for sale on the ground and knelt down to beg for mercy.

At that time, she hadn't drunk blood for a long time, and the beast couldn't be found. She felt that she was about to lose control, so she didn't say anything, took the bag and left.

So a robber who only robbed food appeared.

"Mo Linyang..." She held back the tears that were overflowing from her eyes and wiped them away with her hands.

She burst into tears, she was cold and hungry.

She didn't know why she wanted to call this person's name, but she had no one else to rely on here, and she didn't know anyone except her mother. She was still a little weak and couldn't go out to find food.

"Are you calling me?"

Mo Linyang walked in from the tree hole, shaking off the snow on his body and holding a piece of wood.

"I just went out to chop some wood and catch a few fish. It's snowing hard outside and the river is frozen."

"Are you feeling a little cold? Wait until I light the fire and it will be warmer."

He took out the flint from his bag and lit the campfire again, and the whole tree hole began to warm up.

"If you're hungry, you can eat some beef jerky first. If you think it's too hard, you can roast it before eating." He skillfully cleaned the fish scales and internal organs, skewered them with wooden sticks, and turned them over under the flames beside the campfire.

Then he took out some seasonings he carried with him from the bag and sprinkled them on the fish. After all, fish without any seasonings added would taste bland and only have a fishy smell.

Mo Linyang took off Lin Xiaoya's clothes, walked up to her and handed them to her, then returned to the campfire and turned his back to her. He had to take off his clothes because he couldn't just watch others put on clothes.

"Thank you."

After Lin Xiaoya put on her clothes, she sat next to Mo Linyang and stretched out her hands to warm herself in front of the campfire.

"Why did you become a robber?"

"This is a misunderstanding." She pointed to the beef jerky in front of the campfire, "Can I have this?"

"Of course, if it's not enough, there's more in the bag. Just bake some more."

It was the first time that Mo Linyang was alone with a strange woman, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"I didn't mean to steal their food. They just put the food on the ground and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find food, so I took their food."

While eating beef jerky, Mo Linyang asked, "You live alone in the woods outside of town?"

Lin Xiaoya nodded.

“When the weather is cold, you often can’t find food.”

He had some speculations. The girl was afraid that if she lost control, she would attack others like she did before. That was why she lived alone and had to find food on her own. If she couldn't find any, she would starve.

Mo Linyang did not ask her in depth why she lost control, after all, it was someone else's secret.

In order not to hurt others, she had left the group and would not embarrass another woman in distress.

It doesn't make sense.

Mo Linyang handed a fish to Lin Xiaoya. After the latter thanked him, the two ate the fish in silence without any further communication.

......

......

The two of them slept by the campfire, the faint light from the campfire shining on their bodies and illuminating their faces.

Originally, the place where Lin Xiaoya was lying unconscious was quite far from the campfire, and her clothes were quite thin. After Mo Linyang asked for her opinion, the two of them rested together by the campfire.

Lin Xiaoya opened her eyes, her eyes were light red, and she rolled on the ground. Her action woke up Mo Linyang.

"what happened to you?"

"Blood...I want to drink blood..."

Mo Linyang finally understood why she lost control. She would lose control if she didn’t drink blood for a long time!

No wonder before she fell off the cliff, her target shifted to his horse. She wanted to drink blood, the blood of livestock.

"If you just want a little blood, you can drink mine."

"No... I promised my mother." She stopped rolling around and held her head in her hands, "I can't... drink other people's blood."

Mo Linyang sighed. He originally thought that someone who could lose control at any time would be mentally abnormal, but after getting along with Lin Xiaoya, he found that she was just an ordinary girl.

Even though she was in so much pain, she still stuck to her principles. Mo Linyang admired her a little.

He took out a knife and cut the back of his hand, and blood slowly flowed out.

"Your mother doesn't want you to hurt others, so she told you not to drink other people's blood. She is afraid that if you do these things, you will be dealt with by the officials of the Xingtian Division or the upright monks."

The Xingtian Division is affiliated to the Emperor of Beizhou and is responsible for managing order and exploring unknown secret realms. All the people in the Xingtian Division are cultivators and are also considered court officials.

He touched Lin Xiaoya's head with his right hand and put his left hand on her mouth.

"Now you haven't hurt anyone else. The blood was given to you by me. You haven't broken the agreement."

Lin Xiaoya grabbed his hand and slowly drank the blood on the back of his hand.

After a while, Mo Linyang wrapped his left hand with white cloth and added more firewood to the campfire.

"Thank you for being so nice to me."

"Did anything just happen that you want to thank me for?"

Lin Xiaoya understood what he meant. He asked her to pretend that she didn't know about it and never tell anyone else that there was a blood-sucking monster here.

She felt the warmth enveloping her, the invisible kindness gently wrapping her.

She slowly closed her eyes, her body and mind gradually relaxed, and she fell asleep.
