Chapter 198 Fair Trade
A small village a hundred miles away from Linyun City, there is a river called Huanyun in the north of the village. A few days ago, a man in gorgeous brocade always sat on the bank of the river at sunrise and then left at sunset. Although the name of the village coming and going is strange, no one has the courage to ask, because the man is accompanied by a gray wolf. Whenever someone wants to approach, the gray wolf will stare very alertly at the person who wants to approach.
However, there are always a few people who are not afraid of death. The puppy was one of them. At the inspitation of his partners, the puppy carefully walked in the direction close to the man. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, he saw the gray wolf staring at him fiercely. He was very much like running, but when he thought that if he ran away, he would be scolded as a coward by Lingzi, the girl he still loved secretly, he could only be tough. Slowly approached the man with his scalp.
As the distance shortens, the puppy can even hear the sound of the gray wolf.
Then, the gray wolf, who had just issued a warning and roaring in place, suddenly began to walk towards the puppy. The puppy was so scared that it was suddenly stunned, with its legs trembling. After all, it was just a teenage child. In such a situation, there was no second reaction except to escape. But I don't know why, although the puppy is afraid, he just stands still. There is only one idea in his heart. He must not let Lingzi say that he is a coward, as if being scolded by a girl named Lingzi in his heart is more terrible than facing a wolf that may eat him at any time.
The gray wolf grew its mouth, showing its sharp fangs, as if making a final warning.
"I'm not afraid of you..." As if to strengthen himself, the puppy shouted at the approaching gray wolf, "I'm not afraid of you, I'm not afraid of you."
A friend of a hill not far away, seven or eight teenagers are smiling secretly. Among them, a girl in pink cloth stared proudly at the back of the puppy. A hungry little boy next to him said, "Lingzi, I think it's okay. If it goes on like this, the puppy will be eaten."
Lingzi shook her head with a determined expression: "No, that wolf can't eat people."
The little boy didn't believe it: "Nonsense, how can there be wolves that don't eat people?"
"I think that man must have a story." I don't know when Lingzi's eyes were attracted by the man sitting by the river. Lingzi is 12 years old, but her appearance has become beautiful and beautiful. If she comes in a few years, she must be a beauty.
"What story?" I don't know where another child with a runny nose came out.
Lingzi's mouth was tight and she didn't say anything, just looked at the man sitting on the bank of the river.
After shouting a lot, I was not afraid, the puppy's face turned red. At that time, at that time, the gray wolf, who was slowly approaching, fell on his body and rushed to the side of the puppy in a few steps. At that moment, the puppy only felt that the sky was spinning and the bones all over his body felt pain. Are you going to die like this? Ah, it must have been bitten by a wolf, so it will hurt so much. For some reason, the puppy suddenly remembered what his mother had said to him and closed his eyes if he felt scared. But at this time, the puppy not only did not close its eyes, but opened its eyes wide. If you have to face death, you should also see clearly how you died.
should have been dead. I don't know how long it took for the puppy to feel that his stomach seemed to be very heavy, and then a warm ** flowed to his face? Even if he opened his eyes, he couldn't see anything in front of the puppy, as if he had been pressed by something. After a while, the oppression disappeared. The puppy saw a huge face. To be precise, the wolf's face was staring at him, and water kept flowing from his bright red tongue dripping on his face.
Then, the puppy smelled a very wanted smell, which seemed to be the smell of meat buns.
Hmm? Why do meat buns appear at this time? What is the situation? The slender and white hand was holding a white bun, and then the gray wolf raised his head and took away the meat bun, squatted aside, and ate the meat bun three or two times.
"You...you...you..." The puppy said three words of you in a row, but didn't say anything.
"Why don't you go away? Do you think it really won't eat you?" Chu Xuan squatted down and stared at the puppy curiously.
"I, I... I don't want Lingzi to call me a coward."
"Reiko?" Chu Xuan asked, "What do you think of the girl hiding behind the small hill? Wearing pink clothes?"
The puppy nodded and said nothing. An inexplicable emotion surged in my heart.
"Do you like her?" Chu Xuan asked.
"Hmm." Without any hesitation, the puppy nodded again, but his expression was full of firmness and determination.
"Ah, that's it." Chu Xuan smiled, pulled up the puppy still lying on the ground and said, "Go back quickly."
"No." The puppy patted the dust on his body and said, "I won't go back."
"Don't go back? So what are you going to do?"
"Reiko asked me to ask you, what do you do? Lingzi said, you must be a person with a story, so you have to tell me what you do.
Chu Xuan wrapped his hands and seemed to be very annoyed. In the original place, those friends who were worried about the puppy are full of curiosity at this moment. They really want to go and listen to what the puppy Chu Xuan said, but because of the existence of Xiaohui, no one dares to go forward. I had to hide behind the hill and peek at it from time to time. While everyone was still watching, Lingzi strode towards the river bank.
"She's here." Chu Xuan looked at the direction of the hill with a smile and asked, "What a beautiful child."
"Hmm. Everyone in the village said that Lingzi is the most beautiful and looks better than the maids of honor in the imperial city. The puppy's face was full of happiness, and it seemed that Lingzi was praised for something that made him very happy. Even when she escaped from the gray wolf's mouth, the puppy never showed such a happy expression, "If only she could be her daughter-in-law in the future." In the last sentence, the puppy spoke so lightly that only he could hear it, that is, after saying that sentence, the puppy's original happy expression actually brought a little loneliness.
"Where did you come from?" Unconsciously, Lingzi had walked to the puppy and Chu Xuan, but Lingzi never even looked at the puppy, but just looked at Chu Xuan.
"I'm from Linyun." Chu Xuan replied.
"Linyun, that's the imperial city. What do you do?" Lingzi continued to ask.
"I have steamed buns in the restaurant. I'm a cook."
"Are you a cook? No, you're not a cook." Lingzi said.
"Oh? How can I not look like a cook?" Chu Xuan asked back.
"Your clothes are so gorgeous. How can a cook wear such gorgeous clothes?"
"Then what do you think I do?"
Lingzi thought for a moment and said, "You must be a rich man. Come to us to play if you have nothing to do. Is it your pet? Being able to raise a wolf proves that you must not be an ordinary person.
Chu Xuan smiled and said, "I'm really a cook. I can't help it if you don't believe it."
"Well, even if you are a cook, can you do me a favor?" Lingzi asked.
"What?"
"I want to marry you." After Lingzi said this, the puppy suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked incredible.
"Reiko." The puppy gently pulled Lingzi's sleeve, but was impatiently thrown away by Lingzi. Helplessly, the puppy could only lower its head and not speak.
Chu Xuan, who had a panoramic view of everything, said, "Do you know that he likes you?"
"I know, but I don't like him."
"You want to marry me, but I don't like you, so I can't marry you." Although Chu Xuan's tone was very light, there was an indescribable coldness at the bottom of his eyes.
"Then I don't want you to marry me. You take me away."
"No." Chu Xuan said quietly, "I won't take you away."
"Why?" Lingzi seems to be a little angry, but it's not easy to attack.
Chu Xuan squatted down and looked at Lingzi: "It's not the matter of the world that you want. It's okay for me to take you away. There is a knife here. You cut your face with this knife. If you dare to cut it, I will take you away. How about it?"
Chu Xuan took out a cold dagger from his sleeve. Lingzi looked at the dagger and couldn't help taking a step back.
"What? I don't want to. In this case, there's nothing we can do."
"Wait, let me think about it."
"Okay, I'll give you time to think about it." Chu Xuan put the dagger on the ground and turned to look at the puppy. "Do you think she will cut her face?"
Unexpectedly, the puppy looked at Chu Xuan angrily and almost gritted his teeth: "You are a bad person."
"Why am I a bad guy?"
"You let Reiko cut your face. You are a bad person, a bad person."
"Isn't it fair that she wants me to take her away and I ask her to cut his face?"
The puppy thought for a moment and said, "No, you are a bad person. You can take Lingzi away. Why do you want her to cut her face?"
"How can it be so easy in the world? You just faced the gray wolf, but you didn't escape. Isn't it because you are afraid that Lingzi will scold you as a coward? If not, why are you willing to risk your life? Chu Xuan said, "So this is just a matter of willingness in the transaction, not a matter of whether it is bad or not."
"You are a bad person, a bad person, Lingzi, don't believe him." The puppy looked at Lingzi with a little anxious expression.
