The Emperor

Chapter 90 To the Human World Again

As soon as he said, Emperor Bai Ling took Hua Xiaoyan out of the human world. As long as he looked at Hua Xiaoyan happily, Emperor Bai Ling would be very happy.

This capital always wakes up too early. Last night's dust still has time to calm down. The dim street lights seem to still have dim yellow lights to come out, but when you look closely, it is the refraction of the morning. The stalls near the street are always overcrowded, and shouts come one after another. Fortunately, the boss's wife has practiced the magic skills that she will never forget. In fact, it is not overcrowded. Teahouses and inns, pawnshops, on both sides of the street, all kinds of hawkers are selling along the street, and there are antiques, rouge gouache jewelry, calligraphy and painting kites. The various transportation routes of sachets cover every corner of the capital like spider webs. Groups of people are loaded and unloaded like goods. The whole city is like a busy empty shell. Everyone is busy, busy with their own difficult life...

Spring comes quietly, everything is revived, and the market in the capital is also a thriving scene. A lively rainbow-shaped bridge, crowded with tourists and pedestrians. There are many stalls on both sides of the bridge, selling all kinds of groceries, small dried fruits, fortune-telling, and tea... The walkway in the middle of the bridge is bustling with people, including sedan chairs, walking, carrying burdens, and The carriage and the cargo... The capital is really as lively as I heard. Standing on the railings, looking at the ships in the river, thousands of sails compete, and hundreds of boats compete for the flow. Standing at the head of the bridge, the spring breeze is blowing on my face, is it so comfortable? After strolling around a few stalls, I suddenly saw a large grain-moving ship preparing to pass through the bridge hole. The boatman on the big boat was very busy.

Hua Xiaoyan looked down and saw those boatmans standing on the top of the canopy, lowering the sails neatly, some standing on the side of the boat and holding the pole hard, and some were struggling to support the top of the bridge hole with long poles, so that the big boat could pass through the bridge hole with the water. Those boatmans are really hard..." Looking at this tense scene, I couldn't help sighing.

Emperor Bai Ling said lightly, "There is a difference between hard-working people and lazy people in this world."

"A hard-working person? A lazy person? Xiaoyan heard for the first time, Master, didn't you say that there is only good and bad in the human world? Why is there such a difference again?

"Lazyness is a poison, and diligence is an antidote. Do you see the beggar's nest opposite? That is the end of lazy people, and the people who work underneath are hard-working people. They can get food and wealth through their own labor. Their lives are positive, while the lives of lazy people are negative. Emperor Bai Ling explained patiently.

"Master means that hard-working people are good people, and lazy people are bad people." Hua Xiaoyan jumped down the bridge. After coming to the human world, she didn't want to waste her good time discussing the principles of the human world. Emperor Bai Ling looked at her cheerful figure and shook his head helplessly.

She walked casually on the busy street, and her feet were light. The gorgeous sunshine shines between the green tiles and red walls everywhere. The sudden eaves, the high-flying signboard flag of the shop, the sparkling carriages and horses, the endless flow of pedestrians, and the calm and comfortable smiles are still unchanged in Hua Xiaoyan's heart. It's still so lively. Wealthy.

Hua Xiaoyan came to the restaurant brought by Bai Ling Emperor. Before she walked in, she began to shout, "Xiao Er, bring me up the most expensive and delicious food in your store!" She pretended to be a rich person and swaggered into the restaurant.

"Two guests, please, there are all kinds of delicious food in the small shop, some of which are the most fatty..."

Seeing that Xiao Er was going to introduce again, Hua Xiaoyan immediately waved her hand and interrupted, "It goes without saying, take us to the private room."

The second child of the store said with a smile on his face, "Okay, the two guests, come with me."

Hua Xiaoyan turned around and smiled sweetly at Bai Ling Emperor, and then flashed into the private room at the fastest speed. Emperor Bai Ling followed her in a low-key manner and was silent.

The food in this restaurant is the best. Since the last time she experienced in the human world, Bai Ling Emperor left Hua Xiaoyan alone, and she never had a chance to come. During her days with the fox, she wanted to come here several times, but she was ruthlessly beaten back by the money in the fox's purse. Now she finally came here again, and this time she came with the master. Thinking of this, Hua Xiaoyan was excited.

As soon as all kinds of delicious food came up, Hua Xiaoyan couldn't wait to hold the chopsticks, grabbed a chicken leg, and ate it happily. At present, nothing was more important than eating. When she ate several chicken legs, she found that the master did not even move the chopsticks. She said in surprise, "Master, you don't Does it mean that you really want to eat the food in the human world? Why don't you eat it now?"

Emperor Bai Ling smiled gently: "It's good for the teacher to watch you eat. Now the teacher doesn't want to eat."

Hua Xiaoyan said oh and continued to eat. And Emperor Bai Ling quietly watched her eat.

At midsummer noon without a trace of wind, the sun is always so bright and dazzling. Everyone or cats take a lunch break in the wing room, or find a shady place to escape the summer heat. Such a big drunken red building, quietly without any sound.

Xu Wan'er, wearing a moon-white cotton shirt and a bamboo hat, slowly walked west along the weeds and thorny walls in the back yard of the Zuihong Building.

The heat wave on the ground, which was scorched by the sun, made her sweat like rain. Her clothes were quickly soaked with sweat, and they were wet and stuck to her body. The low thorns hooked her skirt from time to time. A few steps in the messy weeds would "buzz" a group of black crow insects. She was going to squat down to untie the hanging in a moment. The skirt on the thorns looked very embarrassed when he was about to take out a veil to wave an unknown worm.

Xu Waner had no time to take care of it. She looked around and finally stopped under a big locust tree.

The tree is thick. I don't know whether it has encountered a strong wind or a lightning strike. It has been broken from the middle. The other end of the treetop fell next to the wall, withered and rotten into a nest of insects and ants. New branches were born at the root of the tree. The bowl mouth was thick, and the branches and leaves grew luxuriantly out of the wall.

Xu Wan'er was overjoyed, and there was a faint smile on her solemn face.

She kicked the new branch hard.

The leaves are rustling, and the branches are still firmly on the wall.

Xu Wan'er smiled with satisfaction and picked the bamboo hat, revealing the dark and thick green silk.

She plunged the corner of her skirt into the sweat towel at her waist, and then carefully stepped on the tree and climbed up the tree.

The bright sunlight fell on her face through the leaves, hands and skirts, forming mottled light and shadows.

Xu Wan'er was distracted and soon climbed up the wall.

She opened the leaves that blocked her sight.

Without warning or warning, a young man's face suddenly appeared behind the leaves.

They leaned so close, with their faces facing their faces and the tip of their nose facing the tip of their nose. She could even smell the sweat on his body and feel the heat sprayed on his mouth as he breathed.

"Ah..." After a moment of sluggishment, Xu Waner exclaimed in horror and instinctively retreated to avoid it, but forgot that she was standing on a hanging tree at this moment - a foot in the air and fell into the grass under the tree.

The wall is so high, how can anyone appear on the wall?

She wanted to get up in a daze. There was a burst of blackness in front of her eyes, and her neck suddenly tightened. In an instant, she was pulled up and pushed against the wall.

It was difficult to breathe, and the rough wall made her back very painful.

"Gone go of me!" She wanted to shout loudly, but what she heard was a whimper. She wanted to kick hard, but the strength of her whole body seemed to have been taken away, and her hands and feet were soft and unable to exert herself.

It's over, it's over... A silent afternoon, a remote and desolate backyard, a man climbing the backyard of the nunnery... She has died!

It's like a mirror in my heart, but I can't move it.

The hand pinched around the neck was loose, and thin air poured in.

Xu Wan'er took a big breath greedily.

The man's low and gloomy voice sounded coldly in her ear: "If you dare to make a little noise, I will immediately break your neck."

His voice is not high or low, dull and gentle, without a trace of ups and downs, but it is more deterrent and coercive than those loud roars and scolding.

Xu Wan'er's whole body was weak and she nodded vigorously. She was afraid that the man would not believe it. In the eyes of others, she just nodded slightly.

The hands on the neck slowly relaxed, with a few temptations.

She collapsed on the ground with her limbs softly, covered her throat with her hands and coughed uncommably. Thinking of the man's words, she quickly suppressed her coughing and looked up at each other in horror.

The man in front of him is only in his early twenties. Although he is tall, he is very thin. He is loosely dressed in a tattered short brown color. His deep eyes are surprisingly bright and sharp, his dry lips are tightly squeezed, and his eyes staring at her are as indifferent as an eagle falcon looking down at a chicken with a little fierce.

Xu Wan'er's heart sank.

glanced at his feet quickly.

Without shoes, the trousers are held up and down, revealing the tanned skin.

Her heart keeps sinking.

A ferocious and cold person like him, even if he comes from a humble background, will be hired by those idle gangs who collect debts or rich businessmen, but he is so poor that he can't even wear a pair of straw shoes... Unless, he can't see the light!

She couldn't help shaking!

Is it a wanted Jiangyang thief? Or is it a fugitive who carries human life in the murderous land?

Whether it's the former or the latter, she broke his whereabouts... she will be killed! No, no, she can't just die like this. Her father's revenge has not been avenged, and Xu's injustice has not been clarified. How could she die?

Her whole body was weak, and her eyes couldn't help falling on the jointed, iron-like hands.

Xu Wan'er still remembers how it felt when she squeezed her throat!

No, if he wants to kill someone, he can strangle her directly at that time. Why threaten her with words?

She thought of the temptation when he let go of his hand, and the inspiration flashed.

Or, he also has some scruples!

Xu Wan'er's heart slowly came to life, and her strength returned to her body. She quickly thought about countermeasures.

If you guess correctly, since he is a person who can't see the light, he certainly doesn't care about carrying an extra life... He is mostly afraid that the body will be found after killing someone or the relatives of the deceased will attract the attention of the government, thus exposing his trace...

At this time, one more hesitation is more dangerous!

"A strong man, if you don't enter the gate of the Drunken Red Mansion, why don't you take this remote path? Why do you have to block the little girl's way? Without hesitation, she endured the discomfort of her throat and said hoarsely.

He was still expressionless, and there seemed to be a trace of hesitation in his eyes.

Xu Wan'er was overjoyed, and her voice became softer and softer: "You see, we don't break the river. If you don't tell me about me, I won't naturally say what happened when you came over the red building wall."

He curled the corners of his mouth, suddenly interrupted her and said, "Do you think this is the Drunken Red Mansion?"

"What? Zhuangshi, you're making a big joke. You don't know where this place is. Why do you turn in? The little woman still has important things to do, so I won't say more to you. Please let the little girl live, and I will thank you again in the future."

He said "Oh", and the slightly raised ending was a little inexplicable sarcasm: "Do you think this is the Drunken Red Mansion? Then you are inside..." He said with his chin.

"The identity of the little woman is not what you think. Please don't guess." Xu Waner said with a cold light in her eyes.

The hero raised his eyebrows gently and said slowly, "Then you should know where the kitchen is, right?" He said lightly, "Find a secluded path to avoid the people in the drunken red building and take me to the kitchen!"

...kitchen!

Xu Wan'er was very surprised, but she didn't dare to ask more questions. She stood up with the old locust stump.

Maybe she got up too hard, or maybe she just hit something. With Venus in front of her, she closed her eyes and rested for a while. Then she recovered and slowly went east.

He followed her silently, went out of the backyard and entered an alley.

There were no trees planted in the alley. The sun shot directly on the top of her head, and the white flowers made Xu Wan'er dizzy, but it was not as good as the eyes of the man behind her. It seemed that she had burned a hole in her body, which made her panic. She didn't think much, and she didn't dare to take a wrong step.

Fortunately, I didn't meet anyone on the road. The kitchen in the southeast corner was dark and quiet.

He searched in the kitchen for a long time, collected steamed buns, wheat cakes, pickles, and even half a bowl of unfinished rice and wrapped them in a coat.

Xu Wan'er lowered her head when he took off her clothes.

Her face is very burnt.

At such a big age, it was the first time she met a man stripping in front of her.

The countryman is really very vulgar!

"Let's go!" However, in a blink of an eye, he stood in front of her with food clothes in his hand and a bucket-sized ceramic jar with rice in the other.

Go? Where to go? It's just a courtyard away from where she lives...

The idea flashed, and her face turned pale.

He asked her to go back to the backyard with him!

No, no, no... He doesn't need her anymore. She goes back to the backyard with him, which is to die... You can't go with him anyway... There are several cooking chefs in the next yard. At this time, she should take a lunch break... She is really confused... She should have taken the opportunity to escape when he was looking for food...

"A strong man!" Xu Waner retreated quietly and tried to make her tone seem gentle and submissive. "You already know the way out. The sun outside is so strong. I've been basking in the backyard for so long. I can't stand it. I won't send you out..."

The heel has reached the threshold.

"Help!" She ran away.

It's just that the word "rescue" was just shouted, and her throat tightened again. She was pinched by the neck and pushed against the floor pillar in the center of the kitchen.

The whole body hurts like it's falling out.
