In the empty living room, Bai Qukong walked out of his room. His brows were slightly furrowed, and he looked a little tired, as if he had been busy all day.

He sat down at the seat where he usually ate, looked at the food prepared on the table, and waited quietly.

After a long while, Bai Qiuhe walked in from outside and looked at her father in surprise.

"Where are Sister Xue Xi and the patient?"

"Come on, come on"

The door of the ward was gently opened. Xue Xi jumped into the room and responded excitedly.

Immediately afterwards, the patient walked out from the shadows behind her.

He was dressed in white, his face was even paler than the clothes, and his brows were furrowed, as if he was filled with unrelieved sorrow.

Xue Xi walked to her seat in small steps and sat down. She held her chin with both hands, her calves swinging in the air, full of energy.

The smile on her little face was in stark contrast to the patient's face.

Looking at the food that had already been prepared on the table, Xue Fan was even more delighted.

She turned her head to look at Mu Qiuhe and said in admiration, "Wow, were these all made by Sister He? They look great."

Mu Qiuhe's cheeks flushed slightly when she praised her. She took off the apron on her chest, hung it aside, and then sat down.

Now, except for the patient, everyone sat in their own seats. The patient stood there blankly, as if he had forgotten what he was going to do. Bai Qukong was about to stand up, but Mu Qiuhe got there first.

Mu Qiuhe came to the patient's side and half-pulled him to the seat where they had dinner yesterday.

After everything was ready, Mu Qiuhe picked up the chopsticks and put some food into the patient's bowl. She said softly to the patient, "You are weak, eat more."

The dazed patient seemed to suddenly realize something and nodded mechanically. "Oh, okay."

Then Mu Qiuhe picked up some more for Xue Xi and smiled gently: "You must be hungry, eat quickly!"

With Mu Qiuhe's words, dinner officially began!

Looking at his daughter, Bai Qukong couldn't help but smile. Compared to before, she seemed much more lively.

……

At night, in a dense wood, a man was walking on a path with a long sword on his back. He had a calm expression, and his eyes, like dead water, looked around dimly. An invisible aura emanated from around him, driving away other lives.

The field mouse, which had gone out to look for food, quickly retreated into its cave after sensing this invisible aura, and hid in the corner trembling.

The aura that refused to allow any life to approach startled the birds in the forest. Wherever he went, the animals would hurriedly run away. This also created a strange phenomenon. Within a small circle, the birds in the forest kept flying up and knocking down the leaves.

Occasionally, a wild beast would feel that its territory was being invaded and would quickly come to investigate, staring at the man with fierce eyes, ready to launch a fatal attack. At the very least, they would teach him a lesson and tell him to take a detour in the future. However, after sensing the man's presence, they would flee in panic with their tails between their legs.

"No, this one isn't either."

"neither."

The man walked step by step, without a trace of emotion in his eyes. He just kept looking at the beasts around him, searching for his target.

He saw too many wild beasts along the way.

Although he deliberately controlled his breath to prevent weak animals from approaching him and to lure strong beasts, everything he saw along the way was so commonplace, no different from the past.

I couldn't find the sudden presence of energy that had appeared during this period.

He suddenly felt that his idea might be wrong and that he should not look for the problem from the perspective of the beast.

After all, some sensitive beasts will not come at all. The traps made by oneself are still too simple and can only deceive these beasts that have no brains and only instincts.

Thinking of this, the man restrained his breath, and then burst out again in an instant. The violent aura rolled up a hurricane, sweeping from him to the surroundings, and the surging fighting spirit and the provocative aura that was not mixed with anything else were transmitted to every animal in the woods.

After doing all this, the man stopped and took out a bottle from his pocket. He pulled out the cork and poured the water down. The emerald green liquid carrying a rich breath of life fell to the ground, and the fragrance it emitted attracted every living thing in the woods.

Not long after, a roaring sound was heard from the woods. A crimson, huge bear ran towards here. It was extremely powerful, and its heavy feet made the ground tremble. The man looked at it intently, and the dark night seemed to stop for a moment. After his eyes left, it seemed as if countless sword lights flashed, and then the giant bear's body fell from the sky like a piece of broken mud.

A strong smell of blood rose up, shocking the creatures around.

In just a moment, the giant bear was chopped into meat paste.

"Too weak."

"Not at all."

The man narrowed his gaze and looked at the other beasts. He had no expression on his face, as if he had done something extremely simple, without any difficulty or meaning.

A moment later, scarlet blood flowed down the slope and mixed with the green liquid. The stronger smell spread to all directions of the woods. The beasts that had originally stopped attacking turned their eyes red the moment they smelled the scent. Some of them snorted, as if they had completely gone crazy.

Regardless of distance, all the beasts' eyes were fixed on the source of the smell, and the beasts that were originally frightened also rushed forward, trying to snatch the green liquid.

The running of the beasts stirred up a cloud of dust, and the sound of the beasts gathered together was like thunder.

A bloody battle is inevitable.

……

At night, Mu Qiuhe changed into her pajamas and hid under the quilt. Beside her lay a little girl who looked like a porcelain doll. At this moment, Xue Xi only showed her head, looking at the ceiling, not knowing what she was thinking.

The quilt was still a little small, so to avoid being cold, Mu Qiuhe leaned towards Xue Xi. Xue Xi's big, exquisite eyes kept flashing in the dark. Seeing her serious look, Mu Qiuhe asked curiously, "Sister Xue Xi, what are you thinking about?"

"Eh?"

Xue Xi was interrupted by Mu Qiuhe's question and regained consciousness.

"Did I interrupt you?"

Mu Qiuhe blew out the candle beside her, snuggled into the quilt, and stuck close to Xue Xi.

They couldn't see each other's faces in the dark, but Mu Qiuhe felt Xue Xi shaking his head.

"No."

"Then what were you thinking about so seriously just now?"

"Can you tell me?"

Mu Qiuhe asked curiously.

Mu Qiuhe felt that Xue Xi seemed to nod again, and the quilt moved slightly.

"all right."

Then Xue Xi seemed to fall into deep thought again. After a moment, Xue Xi spoke softly.

"That patient brother looks a little familiar."

"what?"

Mu Qiuhe was actually very surprised when she heard this. She quickly asked, "Look familiar?"

"Ok!"

Xue Xi nodded seriously, then she said:

"Xue Xi seems to have seen him before."

"But I don't remember where."
