Fragrance is good for purifying the heart

Chapter 250 Familiarity
The man who was almost knocked down by him struggled to break free and shouted: "Get out of here, you unlucky thing... you are an unclean thing, don't touch me..."

The man cursed and ran away. There were no pedestrians on the road. Gardenia was left alone, holding her sword, standing in the road, looking at the man who shouted for help.

The man staggered a few steps. Seeing that there was someone in the middle of the road, he rushed towards Gardenia again, with the same words in his mouth: "Monster, monster..."

When Gardenia saw him rushing towards him, she just ducked out of the way. The man missed him and fell to the ground. Gardenia stepped on him and shouted softly: "Where is the monster? Tell me quickly -"

Unexpectedly, the man raised his head and looked at Gardenia's face, and his expression suddenly changed. His originally dull eyes were now full of fear, as if he had seen something terrible, and he shouted: "Monster, you are a monster, don't harm me." Me, don’t harm me?”

"Who is the monster? Where is the monster?"

Gardenia was a little annoyed. She lifted up his collar and lowered her head to look at him, only to see that his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of gray. It didn't look like he was blind, but why was he like this? What if people look at their own faces and say they are monsters?

The man was so frightened that he covered his face. He kept scratching his face with his hands, and from time to time he would gouge his eyes. After a while, his face was covered in blood. No one who saw that scene would realize that it was a bit strange. Horrible.

Gardenia knew that this man must be a little delirious. He looked like he had experienced something horrific for a long time, which was why he was so frightened. He waved his hands towards the pedestrians who were running away on the road, and said something. He was chanting: "Monsters, there are monsters everywhere, don't harm me, don't harm me..."

Gardenia was thinking about what to do when she heard a familiar voice coming from behind her, "Sister, catch this man quickly, he is the person the Golden Ling Bang is looking for."

This voice... is full of vitality but also calm and powerful. It is the person she is most familiar with!

Gardenia turned around and saw An He walking quickly in plain black official uniform.

He is tall and tall, with long milk-white hair tied high with a golden hairband, which is in sharp contrast to his plain black official uniform. His eyebrows are slightly slanted and raised slightly towards the temples, which makes him The originally calm and handsome face had a touch of femininity and gentleness.

If you dress up as a woman, you can call it enchanting.

Also, his injury has healed.

"Xiao An, why are you here?" Gardenia never expected that she would meet Xiao An here. Although it was a bit unexpected, the two had not seen each other for a long time. When they looked at each other and smiled, they felt a little more natural and intimate.

"Sister, I didn't expect you to come here. Did you come to see me specially?" Xiao An walked to Gardenia, squatted down, and with a sharp move of his knife, he beat the man who covered his face and screamed strangely. After feeling faint, he slightly curled his lips at Gardenia and smiled as harmlessly as a spring breeze.

Only then did Gardenia notice that Xiao An was looking at her with an extremely affectionate look. His eyes were as bright as stars in the dark night, but only her shadow was reflected in them.Although there was an unconscious and unspeakable man lying on the ground in front of the two of them, why did this scene make Gardenia's ears warm and her heart beat?
"Ah... I came down the mountain to practice." Gardenia was embarrassed to reveal that she came here specifically to find his whereabouts. Her face was slightly hot under Xiao An's eager gaze.

Suddenly, Xiao An lowered his head with a disappointed look on his face and his eyes were vacant, as if the person who said the wrong thing was not Gardenia but him.

Gardenia didn't want to see him so lonely, so she could only chuckle twice and blurt out: "Yes, yes, yes, your sister, I came down the mountain specifically to find you."

"Are you serious?" When An He heard this, he was like a little beast resurrected with full blood. He excitedly grabbed her arm with a hand, a look of intimacy flashing in his eyes.

"When have you ever seen my sister tell lies to Xiao An?" Gardenia tapped his forehead and between his eyebrows, but Xiao An's lips curved and he smiled sheepishly. At this time, there seemed to be many more little things in his eyebrows. Stars, the whole person seemed to light up because of this smile.

"I originally planned to find the whereabouts of Xiaohua from Xuwu Village in Zhouchang County and then send the news to my sister. But who would have thought that as soon as I arrived in Pingchuan County, I accidentally saw the Golden Ling List issued by the government. It turned out to be We have been delayed in finding out the reason why the people here are having trouble one after another."

When An He saw Gardenia staring down at the unconscious man on the ground, he explained to her the reason why he had been here for many days:
It turns out that Pingchuan County is a county with particularly developed commerce, and the people here are living a prosperous and happy life. However, not long before Anhe arrived here, within a month, many incidents occurred where the people went crazy and lost control. , and, strangely, all of these people who were recruited were men.

"I followed the clues of this case all the way, and when I met local people, many people talked about it, but they all speculated that it was caused by evil spirits, because once these men who were tricked lost control and went crazy, everyone they saw along the street would call them 'monsters' ’, some even go so far as to pick out their own eyeballs because they are too frightened..."

When An He said this, he looked at Gardenia again, worried that what he said would cause Gardenia's discomfort. After all, her sister was a girl, and in An He's mind, she had always been so gentle and graceful. , but saw that Gardenia's face was as usual, but her beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she was thinking along with his train of thought.

So, he dusted off the plain black official uniform, cleared his throat, and continued with a serious face: "I have been following for a long time recently, but it is a pity that I have never found these men who have symptoms. Where did it happen? How did it happen?"

As he spoke, he touched his chin, which had grown some stubble, in confusion, "And... I still don't understand, are these men possessed by evil spirits or suffering from diseases? In this regard, I’m afraid… I need my sister’s help to understand.”

Gardenia was silent for a moment, closed her eyes slightly, stretched out a hand, and touched the unconscious man's pulse with her slender fingers. For a long time, a look of doubt appeared on her face. She shook her head and probed the man again. Pulse condition, still shook his head.

"What's wrong, sister?" An He squatted beside her and looked around warily.

In this street market, the originally bustling crowds were all disrupted by the appearance of this out-of-control and crazy man. But now Gardenia was silent for a long time and repeatedly tested the man's pulse. Could there be something wrong?
"He...is not suffering from any illness. I just checked his pulse. He is in good health and has no disease. Moreover, I also secretly used my spiritual power to detect the aura around him, and he is not suffering from any evil spirits as you mentioned. Signs."

Gardenia pursed her lips and expressed her judgment. She also thought this matter was quite strange.
