Chu Xiao and Yan Zhenshen didn't care about the follow-up of this incident. Anyway, they didn't kill him directly, but took him down the mountain overnight.

Bai Hao obviously didn't want to leave, but he was surrounded by guards. The housekeeper would definitely be worried if he didn't go back and would nag him for days and nights.

Bai Hao really couldn't stand the housekeeper who occasionally talked about moral principles like a class teacher.

He could only follow him down the mountain in disappointment. He knew that if he didn't leave, some guards would definitely stay behind to protect him, and this thatched hut was so small that it couldn't accommodate everyone.

He couldn't let the guards stand guard outside in such a cold weather. He couldn't do such a bourgeois thing.

After sending the person away, Chu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, this matter is over."

"Well, it's cold outside when you come inside."

Yan Zhenshen hardly stopped during the day as he was on the road. He talked to his husband for a while and then slowly closed his eyes.

Chu Xiao saw that his voice was getting lower and lower, from "hmm hmm" to no response. He looked up and saw that he had fallen asleep, so he found a comfortable position and fell asleep.

While the two were having a sweet time here, Bai Hao was still hurrying on the mountain. The mountain road was difficult to walk on, and it was dark and he was not familiar with the road. Even with the torch lighting him up, he would still trip over weeds and gravel from time to time.

"I can't walk anymore. Lei Huo, can you please come out?" Bai Hao asked in a negotiating tone. Otherwise, that guy was too lazy and always hid without making any noise.

Especially in recent days, many times he called for half a day but got no response at all. He was always worried that the guy would disappear completely one day.

"Please help me for a while, even for a minute." Bai Hao continued, even with a bit of a coquettish tone: "Please help me, General."

After a long while, a deeper voice was heard: "Bear with me, we are almost there."

After hearing this person's reply, Bai Hao felt better for some reason, "Okay, I'll hold on for a while." Although he had no intention of completing the rest of the journey for him,

The guards surrounding him, listening to his mumbling, couldn't help but look a little lonely. Although they didn't hate this man who occupied their general's body, since they could be called personal guards, they had naturally followed the general since childhood. To them, only Lei Huo was their master.

And this person named Bai Hao...

If he had not appeared, the general would have died. After all, they were the ones who were guarding the general at the time and watched him lose his breath and heartbeat.

But when grief overwhelmed my heart, I saw the general suddenly speak, holding his head and crying in pain, with some slightly vulgar words in between.

In fact, they had a vague feeling that something was wrong at that time, especially when this man was completely awake, he started asking, "Where is this? Why am I here? Wasn't I drowned?"

After saying that, he started muttering again, saying that good people don't get rewarded. He died saving people, which was a great merit. Even if he was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth in the next life, he should not die an unnatural death.

Just because of his incessant chatter, they couldn't pretend to be stupid even if they wanted to.

It was for this reason that they privately went to the old marquis's ancestral home and visited a wandering Taoist priest with some abilities. It was the Taoist priest who reawakened the general and pointed out the place called Anning Village to them.

It is said that he had been to this village before. If the benefactor of the child had arrived, the general might still have a glimmer of hope. If not, the general could only survive for three years at most, after which he would become increasingly weak and might even fall into a deep sleep again.

Bai Hao looked at the old Taoist priest with a sharp gaze at that time: "If I give up on my own initiative, you can just lead my soul out."

The old Taoist priest just laughed and said, "Silly boy, I don't have that ability. Coming here is your chance, you can't just give it up if you want to. Besides, if you leave, this person will still die."

The guards took a deep breath. Everything is determined by fate. They were looking forward to the general's return, but they would not make things difficult for a child who had done nothing wrong.

"My lord, if you can't walk, I will carry you?" One of the guards squatted down in front of him.

Bai Hao waved his hand quickly: "No, no, I'm just talking casually."

He was indeed a little tired from walking, but he grew up in the countryside, so he could persevere even if he was tired. Not to mention that it was not far, even if he was asked to walk back and forth, he could persevere by gritting his teeth.

The reason why he said this was to get a response from Lei Huo, otherwise he would feel really uneasy.

It was past midnight when they returned to the Beishan mansion. It was late at night, the dew was heavy and the people were shivering. The injured servants had not eaten for nearly two days, and the cold had caused them to develop high fevers.

There is a doctor in the mansion. Although this man made a mistake, he still needs to be treated. After he is cured, he will be sent back to the capital to be dealt with by the old lady. After all, it was the second lady who did it this time. Firstly, family disgrace should not be made public, and secondly, there is no need for him, the marquis, to interfere in the affairs of the backyard.

Tired from the journey, Bai Hao returned to his room and talked to himself as usual for a while, then slowly fell asleep.

After an incense stick of time, he suddenly stood up again, his face stern and his eyes sharp: "Lei Yi."

The guard immediately entered the room and knelt on one knee. One look at his expression told him who it was, "General."

"The second house will be severely punished." Lei Huo felt uncomfortable as soon as he said this. He could feel himself getting weaker and weaker. Before, he could come out from time to time to stop Cai Hao from doing stupid things when he was awake, but now he could only wait until the person fell asleep before he could control this body for a short time.

"I'm a little tired recently, please take good care of him."

"General?" Lei Yi looked up with some concern.

Lei Huo waved his hand and said, "Go out."

"Yes."

Lei Yi went out and closed the door, but he couldn't help clenching his fists. Seeing the general getting weaker and weaker, where was the noble man?

They originally thought it was Chu Xiao, but the general told them that it was not him, but a person who might appear or might never appear again, or someone who could be said to be a god.

"Whether you are a human or a god, please show up soon and save our general, please?"

Lei Yi looked up at the inky night sky, barely finding a few stars, and repeated his words again.

In the room, Lei Huo lay back down again and touched his face. It was becoming more and more delicately maintained. Compared with when he was on the battlefield, there was really a big difference.

In fact, he knew that it was difficult to wait for a miracle to happen, and he didn't have any hope. If he was left behind, what would Bai Hao do?

Return to his original world, or disappear completely, the latter possibility may be more likely, this is not what he wants. Bai Hao hopes that he will always exist and will keep calling him every day.

How could he bear to let such a kind-hearted child die?

"Little guy, you have seen what I look like, but I don't know what you really look like."
