I broke my heart for the male lead
Chapter 18
Most of the dishes on the dinner table were wild vegetables from the farm, plus a plate of scrambled eggs, a plate of cold tomatoes, and the only meat dish was wild pork, but Xu Wanyang ate it very sweetly, it was his favorite meal when he came to Snow Country Meal, probably too hungry.
The host also poured sake for him, and said, "Your homemade wine, don't dislike it, my lord."
"No, no." Xu Wanyang took a sip. It wasn't too strong, but this kind of wine usually had a strong aftertaste.
"My surname is Li. This time it was indeed Li's mistake, which made the young master suffer. I don't know the rules of the mountains. The young master looks like he came from a wealthy family. If you want to make up for it, just ask me. Whatever you can do, you must do your best.”
After Xu Shi drank, the host became more talkative, so he poured him another glass.
Xu Wanyang said, "It's good to clear up the misunderstanding. I'm not a narrow-minded person, but you have to tell me honestly, what are you trying to do by stealing Xiangniao?"
He thought for a while, then sighed softly, "I don't want to hide the matter now, my lord. This is Xiyuan Village. Our family has lived here for generations, and it has always been peaceful. But five years ago, the village suffered The snow demon invaded, and all the houses in the fertile land were destroyed. The snow demon's whereabouts were ghostly, and no one knew when he would come. In order to ensure the peace of the village, the head of the village and the snow demon reached an agreement to sacrifice one person every year. After leaving, the village has been peaceful for a whole year. This year, it’s my family’s turn to draw lots. As you can see, my lord, I only have one daughter, Xiang’er, so how can we, husband and wife, live if we leave her behind?”
"So, you catch the auspicious bird and sacrifice it to the snow demon in exchange for your daughter's life?"
"Exactly. I heard that this colorful auspicious bird is a rare treasure. It can be worth two lives. Over the years, I have saved some family property. All the money is used to buy auspicious birds. I just hope that it can be exchanged for my family's auspicious bird." People are safe."
Xu Wanyang slapped the table and said, "Li Hu, you are so confused, if this snow demon is not removed, no amount of peace will be temporary, and one day it will be your turn, and then you should... ··”
Before he finished speaking, the door suddenly opened, and a burst of dazzling sunlight came in. Xu Wanyang only felt dizzy for a while, and after an impassioned gesture, he suddenly fell down and fell in front of the table.
"Sure enough, it's just as I expected." The farmer's sad face disappeared immediately, and a vicious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After the girl came in, she was so surprised that she almost knocked over the wine glass in her hand, and stammered, "He, he, he, why has he turned into a bird again..."
"Stupid girl, go far away!" The peasant woman fiercely pushed away the person blocking the road, looked around Xu Wanyang, and said to the man, "Boss, how do you know to be sure about this?" A man is an auspicious bird, since he can turn into a human, could he also be a spell, could he be a divine bird, darling, we can't just provoke him."
"I locked this auspicious bird in the cage with my own hands, but the next day it turned into a man. What is he not an auspicious bird? Besides, even if it is a divine bird, if it falls on my hands, it will be impossible to escape! "
"But," the peasant woman hesitated, "we're not sure when he was a bird and when he was a man."
"It doesn't matter, as long as it works. Xiang'er, are you secretly going to feed him today?" Li Hu's vicious gaze swept over, and the girl called Xiang'er fell to the ground, " Father forgive me, my daughter is afraid that the white bird will starve to death, so..."
"Forget it, don't bother with this stupid girl. It's also thanks to her that she discovered it early, otherwise it will be troublesome."
"Tell you, you girl must not be soft-hearted, he is going instead of you. There is also the one in the east room, let alone go to see it secretly, do you know!"
"Yes, my daughter knows."
The peasant woman carefully put the fainted Xu Wanyang back into the cage, locked it and asked with a smile, "Where did you find the girl in the east room? How could she be so juicy?"
"Oh, that's it, she threw herself into the trap herself, so I can't blame us." Li Hu smiled wickedly, "Wait until tomorrow, let's see how the bird is, and let the sixth child drive and become a human." It would be best if they were just bundled together, and if you send them as a pair, that would be really..."
"Okay," the lady looked at him with a coquettish smile, poured him a glass of wine, "don't say so much, the child is still here."
The girl named Xiang'er backed away quietly, the cuteness just now was gone, her face was full of a cold chill.
There was a steady and orderly sound of the wheels, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs in the air. Xu Wanyang opened his eyes and was very dizzy, but his hands were tightly tied behind his back by the rope, and he couldn't break free. I felt that I was in a moving space, and I heard the sound of the coachman driving the horse outside, and more importantly, there was a person on his back.
The two were tied together, not only the wrists were tied, but the hemp rope was wrapped around the chest several times to fix the two together. Xu Wanyang squinted at the past, and judging from his clothes, he was tied to the same place. It should be a girl.
Xu Wanyang thought sadly, he really thought that Li Hu had such a kind heart and would not let him replace his daughter as a sacrifice to the snow demon. Now it seems that he is a strange bird and human being , How can it be worth other people's precious daughter? People's hearts are really sinister, and it's hard to guard against.
But I didn't ask him what that snow demon looks like, and how does it eat people?
Hearing the name, it should be a snow-white monster. As for the way to eat the sacrifice, he hopes to swallow it in one bite. Don't learn how civilized people fry and bake it, and don't eat it with your hands first. Xu Wanyang trembled again at the thought of being torn apart bloody.
If this is the case, I will bite my tongue and kill myself.
The girl who was back to back with him has not moved, it is estimated that the drug was too heavy.
The carriage seemed to be driving through the jungle, and he could hear the chirping of birds and insects, and the cool air that only belonged to the forest also penetrated his nose, but at this moment, he didn't feel anything refreshing at all, and he didn't focus on himself , Try to think about other people, such as Lu Jiyuan, who lost Xiangniao, his father wouldn't skin him, it's really pitiful.And what he misses the most.
Rong Ye.
When he thought of this name, his heart trembled slightly. This time he died and returned to modern times. He was not sure if he would come back. Now that Meng Chao and Rong Ye were engaged, the final marriage would be a matter of course. With Mengchao by his side, he would not be so lonely, and the wound in his heart could be healed slowly.
Just thinking of not seeing him again, my heart was still empty, Xu Wanyang thought, it must be because I didn't have time to say goodbye, it's a pity that I couldn't say goodbye when we got together, and it was a pity after all.
Just when he was sad for spring and autumn, the girl who was back to back with him suddenly coughed, and Xu Wanyang immediately said, "You're awake!"
Besides, Lu Jiyuan, after losing Xiangniao, was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He almost searched the whole street, but still found nothing.He had no choice but to go to His Highness's bedroom to plead guilty. He made up his mind in his heart that he was willing to suffer any punishment, but he was stopped by his father just on the way.
"Can you say that again?"
The old father's eyes were full of disbelief, and as he approached him step by step, Lu Jiyuan's heart skipped a beat, feeling a strong sense of oppression, and he swallowed, "I said, put..."
"Lost, lost, the auspicious bird," Lu Jiang repeated word by word, "but why did His Highness's auspicious bird come into your hands? What kind of mentality did you have when you touched this auspicious bird? "
Lu Jiyuan swallowed again, "I, I was just curious for a while, because I saw it was very good, so..."
"Oh, so you don't even want your own life?"
Lu Jiyuan couldn't stand it, could his father yell out loudly, what is it to talk like this, it's scarier than a witch!
He closed his eyes, clenched his fists, and stepped forward resolutely, "In short, I will go to plead guilty to His Highness, and father doesn't need to worry about it."
"What are you talking about, you brat!" The old father grabbed him by the back collar and lifted him up, and he was as irritable as a lion roaring instantly, "I don't care! How did you grow so big! Everything is so big! Don't worry, are you still three years old now? Do you know that colorful auspicious bird is His Highness's treasure, did you want to entrust your life to His Highness?!"
"So what, I made my own mistakes, and I have to bear them, so you don't need to worry about them." Lu Jiyuan's voice was steady.
General Lu looked at his son in disbelief, lost all strength, and loosened his collar, "You think you are very capable now, don't you?"
"At least the mistakes I made, don't let others bear it for me." Lu Jiyuan looked at his father, "You always said that I will be His Highness's right-hand man in the future, and I have been working hard in this direction, but even once, even if you can I'm sure I'll do it once. I didn't understand before, why you can't see my efforts, but now I know, because in your heart, I'm just a three-year-old child! I don't understand anything, and when I meet I will only ask for your help when I am in trouble. So this time, father, don’t help me anymore, even if His Highness wants my life to pay for it, I will never beg for mercy.”
He just took a few steps away when he heard a deep voice behind him say, "Cowardly."
Lu Jiyuan clenched his fists tightly, his heart was overwhelmed, what exactly did he want him to do? "Father, what do you think?"
"You risked your life just because of a bird? Can you think about the consequences first, if you continue like this, you will end up with nothing!"
"What is father's method? Is it to use other things to make His Highness not bear to deal with me?" Lu Jiyuan said, "I have tried my best to find it, and I am sure I lost it. The next thing to do is to admit my mistake, make amends, and accept whatever His Highness asks. Punishment. This is my method. And why does father think that to His Highness, it is just a bird?"
Watching his calm and firm steps gradually go away, General Lu let out a long breath. This was the first time that he suddenly felt that he was getting old, and some things were no longer what he wanted.
The host also poured sake for him, and said, "Your homemade wine, don't dislike it, my lord."
"No, no." Xu Wanyang took a sip. It wasn't too strong, but this kind of wine usually had a strong aftertaste.
"My surname is Li. This time it was indeed Li's mistake, which made the young master suffer. I don't know the rules of the mountains. The young master looks like he came from a wealthy family. If you want to make up for it, just ask me. Whatever you can do, you must do your best.”
