Traveling through another world as a sacrifice

Chapter 212 Leaving the water bottle
In the warm afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, and the entire City Lord's Mansion was bathed in soft light. Because the temperature was neither hot nor cold, the birds were happily singing on the branches. The haze made everyone in the mansion happy with the weather.

At this time, the entire city lord's mansion is full of aromas, and the smell of various foods permeates the air. The cooking maids are busy in the back kitchen. After some ordinary ingredients are processed by them, they are all transformed into delicious flavors. delicacies.

The food of westerners is mostly pasta. Whether it is breakfast or lunch, it is usually bread, butter and ham. Today, the food on the table can be described as dazzling, with all kinds of delicacies filling the whole table.

Such a rich food is enough to make many people salivate, but for Wang Xiaoyu at this moment, she can't arouse the slightest interest. Because she is worried about Roy's safety, this meal is like chewing wax.

Compared to Wang Xiaoyu's troubles, Claire was quite happy, because he successfully dealt with those people's funerals and quelled the rumors on the street, so he did so much today to thank Wang Xiaoyu, But while eating, Claire noticed that the atmosphere was not right.

At the beginning, he was too happy to notice anything unusual at the dinner table, but at this moment, Claire found that Wang Xiaoyu seemed to be very silent, which was far from her cheerful image in the past.

In fact, not only Claire noticed Wang Xiaoyu's abnormality, but also Yani at the same table, but he is a face-saving person, even if he really wanted to say something, he would never ask it in front of Claire.

"Apollo, is there something on your mind?" After a while, the atmosphere was still so silent, Claire couldn't help it, he looked up at Wang Xiaoyu, his amber eyes were full of worry.

Wang Xiaoyu was thinking at first, although she heard someone talking, she didn't think it was calling her, until she felt two hot gazes, then she was slightly startled, glanced at them suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You still ask what's wrong with us. This is what I want to ask you. Is there something on your mind?" Claire asked with concern.

"Uh, I...what can I have on my mind." Wang Xiaoyu smiled coyly, his eyes flickering.Although she knew that Claire cared about her, she didn't intend to tell him about that.

"Is it really okay?" Claire looked at Wang Xiaoyu suspiciously.

"Really..." Wang Xiaoyu was about to refuse, but suddenly felt that his hand was being grabbed.Wang Xiaoyu was taken aback, she took a peek at Yanni, and saw that he was looking at her with encouraging eyes.

The moment their eyes met, a faint but warm feeling came to her heart. Although they didn't say anything to each other, Wang Xiaoyu knew that Yani understood her, and this kind of unconditional trust made her feel very warm.The idea that had been given up was revived under this force, Wang Xiaoyu opened his mouth and said, "Actually, I have something..."

"What's the matter?" Claire didn't see the small movements of the two under the table. He was very happy to see that Wang Xiaoyu was willing to confess to him.

"We've stayed here long enough, so..." Wang Xiaoyu was very careful when she spoke. She glanced at Claire secretly, and seeing Claire's unkind expression, the little courage that emerged began to dissipate. At this moment, her The palm tightened again, and Wang Xiaoyu knew that it was Yanni who was cheering him on.

"I think it's time for us to leave." Encouraged by Yanni, Wang Xiaoyu plucked up the courage to speak out the thoughts that had been suppressed for a long time. The stagnation in the large intestine is instantly unobstructed.

The atmosphere of the room fell into an inexplicable atmosphere because of these words. Except for Claire, Yanni and Wang Xiaoyu were all in deep anxiety. They didn't know if the moody little boy in front of them would agree. How will they be treated if they disagree.

There was no rage as imagined, nor unexpected cheerfulness. Claire's behavior at this time was a bit strange. He had a calm face, and without saying a word, he just looked at Wang Xiaoyu with those unpredictable eyes.

After a while, Claire seemed to have figured it out, and he said to Wang Xiaoyu with a smile, "Okay, when?" When he spoke, his tone was very relaxed, but in fact, only he himself could understand that there was something wrong in his heart. How sad.

If it was before, he would have forced the other party to stay, but after Wang Xiaoyu helped him so much, Claire could no longer be so ruthless. Seeing that Wang Xiaoyu wanted to leave so much, he could only agree no matter how unwilling he was.

"Uh, did you really agree?" Wang Xiaoyu looked at Claire in surprise. Her mouth was slightly opened, her eyes were wide open, and she was very surprised. Beside her, Yanni was not so exaggerated, but her eyes were also wide-eyed. , looking very surprised.

In fact, it's not surprising that the two were so surprised, because they both thought that Claire would refuse, and even if he didn't directly refuse, he would make things difficult. How could he expect that the other party would be so happy, it was really unexpected.

"Of course, I don't need to lie to you, but when are you leaving?" Claire blinked, looking very innocent.

"It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day, why not just today." Wang Xiaoyu couldn't wait to blurt out, in fact, even if Claire didn't agree, she still planned to sneak away tonight, since the other party brought it up, that's even better.

"Uh, so urgent?" The smile on Claire's face froze. He was very surprised that Wang Xiaoyu said the time. In fact, he was not the only one, even Yanni who was opposite was the same. Even he didn't understand that Wang Xiaoyu was in such a hurry. .

"Well, is it okay?" Wang Xiaoyu blinked and looked at Claire flatteringly.

"..." Facing Wang Xiaoyu's intentional flattery, Claire couldn't express the feeling in her heart. Thinking back to the first meeting until yesterday, Wang Xiaoyu was either cold or smiling. No matter how well she did, it was useless. Now the other party showed his longing expression, but the price was to leave.

"Can...can..." When Claire said this, her speech speed was much slower than usual, but even so, those two words finally squeezed out from between her teeth.As soon as the words were out of his mouth, a wave of regret came to his mind. In order not to be despised by Wang Xiaoyu, Claire left the room quickly.

As soon as he went out, cheers came from the room behind him. Claire, who had just walked outside the door, changed his face. He looked back at the two celebrating and clenched his fists.

No matter how much Claire felt reluctant, since he agreed to Wang Xiaoyu's request to leave, he spared no effort to help Wang Xiaoyu get ready.

Because she didn't know where Wang Xiaoyu was going and how far the journey was, Claire prepared a lot of things, so when Wang Xiaoyu saw the food as high as a hill, a crack appeared in her calm expression.

"Damn, I'm not dazzled." Wang Xiaoyu rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was dazzled.

"Little fish, you didn't look at the flowers." Yani whispered from the side, he stared at the cart, his eyes flashed an inexplicable gleam, he was also a male, he naturally understood Claire's intentions.

While Wang Xiaoyu and Yanni were talking, Claire also spotted the two not far away. He trotted over and panted deliberately: "Why are you here so early?"

"Come over and have a look after dinner if you have nothing to do. By the way, I think it's almost the same. Now it's a good time to go." Wang Xiaoyu said without thinking.

"Uh, this... is actually not finished yet, why don't you just wait a while, and I'll let you know when I'm done." Claire rolled his eyes, wanting to take the opportunity to procrastinate for a while, in his heart, he had already done it Abacus, just find excuses for various delays, so that you can stay with the other party for a while.

However, when Claire’s abacus was crackling, an uninterested maid ran over. She opened her mouth and said as if she hadn’t seen the warning in Claire’s eyes; “My lord, everything It's all ready."

"Ah, that's great, let's go." Wang Xiaoyu couldn't help but drag Yanni into the ox cart specially prepared for the two of them.

Everyone was already in the car, and the maid's testimony just now made Claire no longer have any excuses. He gave the maid a vicious look, and then chased after him with a money bag; "Wait a minute."

"What's the matter?" Wang Xiaoyu lifted the curtain and poked his head out of the car window.

"This is the 680 gold coins I promised to lend you." Claire handed a heavy money bag to Wang Xiaoyu, and then he stood where he was, watching the ox cart disappear from his sight with complicated eyes.

After leaving the city lord's mansion, the bullock cart came all the way from the market to the outskirts, until the moment it left the city gate, Yanni held back for a long time before saying: "Xiaoyu, why did you borrow money from him?"

"Of course I have my uses, and you will know when the time comes." Wang Xiaoyu's faint voice came from the carriage. When she spoke, she looked at the money bag in her hand with a complicated expression, and a touch of sadness flashed under her eyes.

"Where are we going now?" Yani was disappointed when he saw that Wang Xiaoyu didn't answer, but he wisely didn't ask, but chose to use other questions to distract him from the embarrassment just now.

After he finished asking this sentence, there was a few seconds of silence in the carriage, just when Yani thought he should have asked, Wang Xiaoyu's muffled voice came from the carriage: "Go Sea tomb."

"Sea tomb?" Yanni's heart trembled, he looked back at the closed car curtain, and suddenly understood something.After following Wang Xiaoyu for so long, Yanni is no longer a simple man who doesn't understand anything. Now he can quickly understand what Wang Xiaoyu wants to express.

With a destination, things will be easy to handle. Yanni flicked the reins and drove the ox cart towards the sea tomb. Not long after he left, an ordinary ox cart followed Yanni closely. behind...
