Lin Mengya turned around and looked at the crowd behind her thoughtfully.
It was strange. She felt that someone was looking at her.
It was strange to be stared at, but her sixth sense had always been sharp. But when she turned around to look, she couldn't find anyone.
Could it be that she was being too sensitive?
"What's wrong?"
Xiaoyu rushed to the pancake shop and bought the most famous rose meat pancake.
The noodles were mixed with honey and tasted sweet.
The inside was filled with delicate rose petals and minced pork.
He had eaten it several times. It was sweet and smooth, not greasy, and it suited his sister's taste.
"Nothing. I'm just being paranoid. Xiaoyu, why don't we go and buy a mask? "
Lin Mengya retracted her gaze and looked at the fragrant meat patty in Xiaoyu's hands. She smiled until her eyes curved into crescents.
Her and Xiao Yu's appearance was really a little eye-catching. Those guards secretly blocked many young boys and girls who wanted to come up and strike up a conversation.
Now, she just wanted to eat quietly and not be disturbed by others.
"Okay, I'll go now. Wait for me here!"
It was rare to make her sister smile. Xiaoyu immediately rushed to the nearby mask stall, carefully picked out a man's mask and a woman's mask, and returned to Lin Mengya's side.
"Who is this? It looks a little ugly."
Biting the soft and warm meat pancake, Lin Mengya looked at the mask in Xiaoyu's hand.
These two masks seemed to be worn by many people today.
Xiaoyu took them and handed her a white mask.
It seemed to be a woman's face, with thin eyebrows and long eyes. It looked a little strange.
Eh?!
Lin Mengya looked down and carefully looked at the flower on the forehead of the mask.
The more she looked at it, the more familiar it looked. It looked like the plum blossom mark that had mysteriously disappeared.
"These are the masks of the Witch Empress and the King of Venomous Worms. Everyone wears them. If you don't like them, I'll buy one for you."
Xiaoyu was about to go, but Lin Mengya stopped him.
"You mean this mask is made according to the appearance of the Witch Empress? What about this plum blossom? Is there a statue of the Witch Empress? "
Looking at the mask in her sister's hand, Xiao Yu nodded in confusion.
Sister is acting a little strange today. Didn't they just come back from the Witch Queen Temple? Why is sister asking this?
After thinking for a while, Lin Mengya decided to go back to the Witch Queen Temple to have a look.
Since the Nation of Lintian, she had known that the plum blossom on her body was extraordinary.
Whether it was the key that could open the secret chamber or the mechanism on the back of the old turtle that locked the music score for the green stringed instrument, they were all inextricably linked to the plum blossom.
Moreover, the reason why Xin Yu and Wanyan Jing asked him to take off his clothes that day was to find the mark of the plum blossom.
Now that they saw this mark on the Witch Empress' forehead again, they couldn't help but feel that something was amiss.
"Let's go take a look at the Witch Queen Temple! Xiao Yu, tell them not to get too close. "
Lin Mengya quickly finished the rose cake in her hand, wiped her hands, and put on the mask of the Witch Empress.
They didn't wear a mask just now because it was their first time going and there were many people. The chances of them being recognized were very low.
But now the crowd was gradually dispersing, and it was their second time going. If they were recognized, it would be troublesome.
Moreover, those guards seemed a little out of place in the crowd. If they got too close, they might get in the way.
"Why? Wait for me! "
Xiao Yu saw her sister walking quickly in the direction of the Witch Queen Temple, so she immediately put on a mask and followed.
She gestured to the guards and immediately caught up with Lin Mengya, regardless of whether they did anything or not.
In the Witch Queen Temple, the number of people who came to worship decreased.
At the door, Lin Mengya casually glanced at the Witch Temple. There seemed to be more guards.
And the crowd also had a new order. It was no longer as chaotic as before.
After entering the door, Lin Mengya walked to the main hall of the Witch Queen Temple without stopping.
There were still many people in the main hall, but they came in very easily.
Because it was the Witch Queen's birthday celebration today, the Witch Queen Temple was full of candles.
The spacious and dim Divine Hall was now as bright as day.
Lin Mengya raised her head and looked carefully at the face of the Witch Queen statue.
The same slender eyebrows and eyes were exaggerated, but she could tell that it was a beauty's facial features.
The same indifferent and elegant red plum blossom mark. Moreover, the left petal was slightly longer than any other petal!
Looking at the mask she had just taken off and held in her hand, the petal was the same length.
The people of Lieyun liked roses very much, and few liked plum blossoms.
Therefore, the plum blossom mark on the forehead of the Witch Queen was not drawn for beauty.
There must be another meaning!
"Let's go. Someone is coming."
While Lin Mengya was still in a daze, Xiao Yu grabbed her hand and forcefully dragged her out of the Witch Queen Temple.
"Who is coming?"
Lin Mengya, who immediately came back to her senses, looked at Xiao Yu, who had a solemn face, and asked subconsciously. But she saw that the little guy's lips were tightly pursed.
His eyes were constantly scanning the surroundings as if he was looking for someone.
"It's the people from the Yao Family. Damn it, we seem to be targeted!"
Xiao Yu said in a low voice. He looked around cautiously and frowned.
"You go first, don't worry about me. I have a way to escape. Their target is you. "
Lin Mengya immediately understood. No wonder the Yao Family was so quiet. It turned out that their target was Xiao Yu!
"No, you don't know martial arts. You go first, I'll distract them."
Xiao Yu was about to leave, but was caught by Lin Mengya.
"Think about it. You're a prince, and I'm a servant. Why do they want to catch me? You can run later and find the guards. I have a way to get rid of them. Let's meet at the entrance of the palace! "
Lin Mengya had an idea. She secretly pushed Xiaoyu hard, stretched out her leg and quickly tripped a man.
"Who? Who did it! "
The man got up from the ground angrily, widened his eyes, and shouted loudly.
"I saw it, it's him!"
There was a shrill voice in the crowd, but no one knew who it was.
But the man seemed to know it, and punched a strong man in the crowd.
Immediately, the crowd seemed to be in an uproar.
Lin Mengya also followed the crowd to watch the scene, but her eyes drifted to Xiao Yu, who had run far away.
She was the one who tripped him, and the sound was also from her.
However, she just gave him a look and glanced at a burly man who had been following them all this while.
That person thought that it was the strong man who had kicked him, and with a single word of disagreement, they became a mess.
The crowd was already crowded, and because of this martial arts competition, it became even more chaotic.
Those who wanted to catch up with them were completely blocked on the other side.
Seeing that it was about time, Lin Mengya lifted the hem of her dress and rushed into a dark alley.
When the crowd dispersed again, many men in ordinary clothes, who were obviously martial arts practitioners, stood at the entrance of the street angrily.
It was not easy for them to get this opportunity, but they did not expect that a passerby would ruin their plan. It was really infuriating.
The men exchanged a look, and tacitly chased in several directions.
But at this time, Lin Mengya and Xiao Yu had already disappeared.
Except for this street, the other places were dark. It would be quite difficult to find them even if they wanted to.
She ran quickly in the dark alley, and her eyes had adapted to the darkness.
Moreover, her eyesight was good, and the complicated alley did not hinder her footsteps.
As Lin Mengya ran, she paid attention to the situation behind her.
In the quiet alley, apart from her slight footsteps, there was only the sound of her barely suppressed breathing.
Lin Mengya did not know how long she ran, until she was sure that there was no one behind her, and then she stopped.
"Huff, huff …"
She calmed her breathing and beating heart. In fact, she and Xiao Yu had already expected that they might be targeted when they went out this time.
But now Xiao Yu's identity was extraordinary, and they were in the Outer King City.
Unless they wanted to usurp the throne, otherwise, no one dared to attack Xiao Yu easily.
But it turned out that there were really bold people.
"You go this way, you go that way. You must find them, and investigate carefully!"
Suddenly, there was a voice coming from outside the alley.
Lin Mengya immediately held her breath and curled up her body behind a low wall.
These people were really difficult to deal with. But if she could attract some attention, Xiao Yu would be safer.
The sound of footsteps came gradually, and Lin Mengya covered her mouth, trying not to let others hear any sound.
In the dark alley, the footsteps were getting closer and closer.
Lin Mengya could barely see a vague shadow, and the shadow seemed to be a little hesitant.
However, the shadow looked at his palm, and then walked inside.
Lin Mengya's heart almost jumped out of her throat, and she stuffed her finger into her mouth. Now her blood was the most poisonous thing in the world. If she really could not escape, she would use her poisonous blood to poison him to death.
However, she did not expect that the black shadow would find her immediately. Just as she was about to bite her finger, an extremely clear bell sound came from the alley.
"Su Ma, leave."
The girl's clear and delicate voice made the shadow stop instantly.
After that, the shadow walked back quickly. When Lin Mengya was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the girl's voice sounded again.
"Sister Lin, don't be afraid. It's me, I'm Xiu."
Lin Mengya's breath hung in the air, and then she remembered that the familiar bell and the girl's voice were Dongfang Xiu, whom she had mentioned to Xiao Yu.
She stood up, leaned against the wall, and took a few steps out of the alley.
Sure enough, the poisonous grass on the girl's body, which was used for self-defense, was what she had seen on Xiu.
These things could not be hidden from the detection of the Shen Nung System.
