Chapter 386 The Lost Lamb, Chen Duo
"I saw... I saw the Qi in their bodies... flowing into the magic weapons!"
Su Chen's face changed. Something had happened! Was Ma Xianhong going to do something desperate?
"Old Meng, don't panic! Look carefully where they are going!"
Su Chen suppressed the shock in his heart and gave instructions calmly.
"He...they...seemed...seemed to be heading towards the village entrance!"
Lao Meng's voice was intermittent, and it was obvious that he was still trying hard to observe.
Village entrance? Chen Duo?
Su Chen's mind buzzed and he instantly connected all the things together.
Ma Xianhong was going to use the entire Biyou Village to deal with them! And Chen Duo was his bait!
"Damn it!"
Su Chen cursed in a low voice. He didn't expect Ma Xianhong to be so crazy as to drag the entire village into the water.
"Xiao Zizai! Clarinet!" Su Chen immediately called the other two.
"The situation has changed! Everyone, gather at the village entrance immediately!"
"Got it!" Xiao Zizai's voice came with a hint of excitement.
"Understood!" The clarinet's voice was still low.
Su Chen hung up the intercom, turned around and ran towards the village entrance.
He must find Chen Duo before Ma Xianhong and must not let Chen Duo fall into his hands!
Feng Baobao had already reached the door of the room. She gently pushed the door open and walked in.
In the room, Chen Duo was standing by the window, looking outside.
"Chen Duo." Feng Baobao spoke in a very soft voice.
Chen Duo turned around and looked at Feng Baobao with no expression on her face.
"You... are here." Chen Duo's voice was also very soft, and no emotion could be heard.
Feng Baobao nodded and walked in front of Chen Duo.
"Why...come back?" Feng Baobao looked into Chen Duo's eyes and asked.
Chen Duo was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke, "I...want...to go home."
Go home? Feng Baobao was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand what Chen Duo meant.
"This...is not...home." said Feng Baobao.
Chen Duo shook her head. "This... is... my... home."
Feng Baobao frowned, she felt that something was wrong with Chen Duo.
"Ma Xianhong... asked you... to come back?" Feng Baobao asked again.
Chen Duo didn't answer, but just looked at Feng Baobao.
"He... wants to... use... you." said Feng Baobao.
Chen Duo remained silent.
Feng Baobao stepped forward and grabbed Chen Duo's hand.
"Come with me..." said Feng Baobao.
Chen Duo did not resist and let Feng Baobao pull her.
"Where...are we going?" Chen Duo asked.
"Leave...here." said Feng Baobao.
The two walked out of the house and headed out of the village.
As soon as I reached the entrance of the village, I saw a group of people walking towards me with a menacing look.
The leader was Ma Xianhong.
"Chen Duo!" Ma Xianhong shouted immediately when he saw Chen Duo.
"You are indeed back!"
Feng Baobao stopped and put Chen Duo behind him.
"Ma Xianhong, what are you doing?" Feng Baobao looked at Ma Xianhong and asked coldly.
Ma Xianhong smiled.
"Feng Baobao, please move aside. I have something to talk to Chen Duo about."
"No." Feng Baobao refused without hesitation.
"Feng Baobao, don't force me!" Ma Xianhong's face darkened.
"I say it again, get out of the way!"
"No." Feng Baobao still said the same thing.
Ma Xianhong's eyes turned cold.
"It seems that you are not willing to accept my toast and will be punished by drinking the wine!"
He waved his hand and the crowd behind him immediately rushed forward.
"Go! Bring Chen Duo back to me!" Ma Xianhong shouted.
The villagers rushed towards Feng Baobao and Chen Duo with magical weapons in hand.
Feng Baobao's eyes narrowed and she was ready to take action.
Just then, Su Chen, Xiao Zizai and Hei Guan arrived.
"stop!"
"Stop it all!"
There was a roar, like a thunderclap, and the crowd stopped buzzing.
Su Chen pushed aside the people in front of him and came to Feng Baobao in a few steps.
His eyes, like knives, scraped Ma Xianhong.
Xiao Zi followed behind that guy with a grin on his face, but his eyes were shining frighteningly, like a hungry wolf eyeing meat.
The clarinet was still the same, silent. The black tube on the arm was shining coldly, which made anyone who saw it feel creepy.
"Ma Xianhong, what the hell are you doing?!"
Su Chen held his breath, spoke each word with great tension, and his anger was rising.
The ice on Ma Xianhong's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a smiling face, a very friendly one.
He also spread out his hands, signaling the villagers not to move.
"Su Chen, don't be so angry."
Ma Xianhong was laughing, as if the atmosphere of a fight just now did not exist at all.
"I just came to take Chen Duo home, what's wrong with that?"
He walked forward a few steps, his eyes passing over Su Chen and fixed on Chen Duo.
That look, so gentle, and yet, so sickening.
"Chen Duo, you're finally back."
Ma Xianhong's voice was light and soft, as if he was coaxing a child.
"The village has been waiting for you."
Chen Duo hid behind Feng Baobao, with her head lowered and her bangs covering her face, so her expression could not be seen clearly.
When she heard Ma Xianhong calling her, her body seemed to tremble.
"I...have nowhere to go."
Chen Duo spoke slowly, her voice was dry, like sandpaper rubbing against wood.
Every word reveals a sense of bewilderment.
Ma Xianhong laughed even more when he heard this.
"Biyou Village is your home."
His words were so tender and touching that they could really drown people.
It’s almost like saying “My arms are always open to you”.
Chen Duo still kept his head down and said nothing.
His fingers grasped the corner of his clothes so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
She didn't know whether she should believe Ma Xianhong, nor did she know whether this place could really be a home.
Seeing that Chen Duo didn't respond, Ma Xianhong didn't rush and continued,
"Here, no one will bully you, and no one will force you to do something you don't want to do."
He deliberately emphasized the word "anything".
As if to guarantee, it emphasizes that Biyou Village is "safe" and "free".
Chen Duo then slowly raised her head and looked at Ma Xianhong.
His eyes were still empty and lifeless, like a lost lamb.
But underneath that emptiness, there seemed to be a little something hidden, a little hope, a hope that someone could accept her and understand her.
"Really?"
Chen Duo's voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum, with a little tremor, as if she was asking Ma Xianhong, but also as if she was asking herself.
She wanted a definite answer.
Ma Xianhong nodded vigorously, his eyes full of sincerity, looking straight at you without any flicker.
"I promise."
His words were so decisive that they were like nails driving into Chen Duo's heart.
Chen Duo took a breath, as if mustering all her strength, and nodded slightly.
"Ah."
Just this one word "hmm", light and airy, but sounds quite real.
She has made a decision, she believes in Ma Xianhong and Biyou Village.
Ma Xianhong was so happy that he was smiling with relief.
He raised his hand and patted Chen Duo's shoulder. That action was like an elder showing love to the younger generation.
"Welcome home."
Ma Xianhong's voice is so gentle that it can squeeze water out of it.
These four words, like a key, opened the lock in Chen Duo's heart and allowed her to completely let down her guard.
But, is this really Chen Duo’s “home”?
What secret is hidden behind Ma Xianhong's smile?
Su Chen's eyes narrowed and became sharper.
He stared at Ma Xianhong, trying to see something from his face.
He moved his nose, and the smell of conspiracy in the air seemed to be getting stronger.
"Ma Xianhong," Su Chen's voice sank.
"You better not play tricks on me."
