Traveling through another world as a sacrifice

Chapter 224
Darkness came as promised. Under the starry night, all the buildings were covered with a layer of soft moonlight. At this time, wisps of smoke were rising from every chimney, and the rich rice fragrance was accompanied by the night wind. The directions gradually spread to every corner of the tribe.

It was dinner time, and every family was busy cooking. In a dilapidated room, a white figure was busy in a room less than five square meters. He was stirring the stone pot on the left while He seemed to be in a hurry to fiddle with the steaming bamboo cage on the right.

Fresh ingredients, superb skills, and under Yanni's skillful hands, the strong fragrance filled the dilapidated house. After a lot of busy work, a sumptuous meal was finally done.

Today's dinner is buckwheat bread, antelope ham, fresh cheese, strawberry jam, freshly squeezed milk... When Yanni brought this pile of delicacies to Wang Xiaoyu's room, the rich aroma brought Wang Xiaoyu back With deep thoughts, she looked at the sumptuous meal in front of her eyes, and a strange light flashed in the depths of her black pupils.

After experiencing Karl's incident, Wang Xiaoyu became more guarded against the people around him. Although Yanni did not show any abnormality, who can guarantee the future?For a moment, Wang Xiaoyu fell into a mess of thoughts.

"Doesn't she like it?" Yani came here full of hope, but when he saw Wang Xiaoyu was silent, his mood of expecting praise gradually turned into deep disappointment. He thought Wang Xiaoyu didn't like him After doing this, Yanni lowered his eyes, his hands were restlessly pulling the corners of his clothes, and the bitter taste spread in his heart.

"Huh~" Suddenly, a breeze blew in from the window, and the cool autumn wind quickly penetrated into the collar like a ghost. Stimulated by the coolness, Wang Xiaoyu couldn't help shaking, and her His thoughts came back to his senses because of this sudden breeze.

Feeling that the atmosphere in the room was a bit weird, Wang Xiaoyu raised her head slightly, and just met Yani's disappointed eyes. Wang Xiaoyu felt guilty. She knew that Yani must have misunderstood her daze just now. Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoyu took Picked up the buckwheat bread and took a bite; "Well, it's delicious."

"Really?" Hearing Wang Xiaoyu's praise, Yanni's depressed mood instantly became excited, and a dazzling light shot out from his pale golden pupils. At that moment, it was so beautiful that people could not look away. The laughter is completely from the heart, exuding a kind of warm power.

Wang Xiaoyu stared blankly at Yanni, lost in this warm smile for a moment, in order not to disappoint Yani, Wang Xiaoyu nodded affirmatively and said, "Really, it's delicious."

"Then try this, it's freshly squeezed milk." Yani rolled his eyes, and he brought the hot milk to Wang Xiaoyu's mouth as if offering a treasure, with a happy look like a child who has been praised Same.

"En..." Wang Xiaoyu opened his mouth, and when he was about to taste the milk, there was a sudden violent beating sound. The sound was so sudden that Yanni's heart was shocked, and he only felt his fingers loosen. The stone bowl containing the milk slipped from the palm of his hand.

"Bang." The heavy stone bowl made a dull sound on the ground, and the milky white milk soaked a large area of ​​the ground without reservation. Seeing his hard work being ruined like this, Yanni felt distressed and wanted to pick up the ground. stone bowl.

"There seems to be something wrong." Suddenly, a pair of slender wrists grabbed Yanni's hand picking up the bowl. Although this wrist was very slender, the power contained in it was not weak at all. Yanni raised his head and saw Wang Xiao at a glance. Yu's serious nerves and heart suddenly tightened.

"What... what's wrong?" Yani asked nervously.

"Listen." Wang Xiaoyu didn't answer directly, she pointed in the direction of the gate.

"Dong dong dong dong." At this time, the knock on the door just now was more urgent than before, and the force was getting stronger every time. If you listened quietly, you could vaguely hear some other voices, as if someone was talking.

"Who, knocking on the door is so loud that you're going to die?" At this time, the homeowner came out of his room with a gloomy face. He was feeding his younger brother just now, because of the knock on the door, the soup almost scalded his younger brother. This annoyed the homeowner very much.

I live in seclusion, rarely interact with people, and there are no neighbors nearby, so who is the person knocking on the door?With doubts, the homeowner didn't open the door right away. He first peeked on the crack of the door, and when he saw a group of heavily armed knights standing outside the door, his swearing stopped abruptly.

"Bang bang." Just as the homeowner was thinking wildly, the people outside the door seemed to be angry. Amidst the violent beating sounds, a young man's distraught voice sounded; "Open the door quickly, or we will smash it if you don't open it." The door is open."

"Squeak." In order not to annoy the other party, the homeowner had no choice but to open the door a little bit, but he was still vigilantly blocking the crack with his body, and watched the group of people outside the door vigilantly with a pair of gray eyes.

"We are arresting the arsonist, have you seen this person?" The person who yelled just now was the captain of the knight order, and he held a roll of animal skin and spread it out in front of the owner's eyes.

This is an animal skin with a portrait of a person on it. It shows the appearance of a young man with big eyes and a small nose. That face is clearly Wang Xiaoyu.

"Oops." Wang Xiaoyu has been hiding in the dark watching, with her eyesight, she can clearly see the portrait on the animal skin. When she found that the person on it was herself, her first reaction was to retreat into the room.

"Xiaoyu, what happened outside?" Seeing Wang Xiaoyu's face turned pale, Yani was very worried.

"Someone is coming to catch me, I have to hide quickly." Wang Xiaoyu said, her eyes darting around, and when she was looking for a hiding place, the owner's angry voice came from outside the door; "I Having said that, there is no one you are looking for, please leave quickly, don't scare my brother."

"Go away, since there is no hiding, let us search." The leading knight was strong, and he kicked the owner to the ground with one kick. After clearing the obstacles, a group of people rushed in room.

"Damn it, it really stinks." As soon as they entered the room, the knights who smelled so strong frowned and looked at the dilapidated furniture around them. A group of people turned their dissatisfied eyes on the guy who asked for credit earlier. .

"Anyway, Wang Xiaoyu is a noble-born priest after all, how can someone like him hide in such a dirty environment?" The knights thought so, although they didn't believe it, but since they came in , I can only pretend to search for it.

More than a dozen people quickly occupied every part of the room. After some searching, they found no trace of Wang Xiaoyu. Instead, they found a handsome man in a room. Although he was beautiful, he was not them. to find the target.

"Damn, what a disappointment." After the search was fruitless, a group of people left the room cursing. The owner kept watching the group until they disappeared. He quickly closed the door and came to Wang Xiaoyu anxiously. in the room.

There was only Yani in the room, and no sign of Wang Xiaoyu was found, which made the owner very surprised. Just as he was about to ask, Wang Xiaoyu crawled out from under the bed with his dirty face.Seeing that Wang Xiaoyu was fine, the homeowner heaved a sigh of relief.

"Why are you helping us?" Wang Xiaoyu looked at the owner suspiciously after crawling out from under the bed.In her heart, people who love money are more afraid of death, but the other party did not betray her just now, which is very puzzling.

Facing Wang Xiaoyu's scrutinizing eyes, the homeowner said lightly: "I think you are a good person." The affirmative tone was full of absolute trust. After saying this, the homeowner turned around and left.

"Good man?" It took a long time before Wang Xiaoyu recovered from her astonishment. Although she was very thick-skinned, she was also irritated by the homeowner's words of "good man". For some reason, she believed that the housekeeper What the Lord said is true.

After experiencing the search turmoil, life seems to have returned to the previous calm. Yani is busy making all kinds of delicacies for Wang Xiaoyu every day. Yani is very happy to see Wang Xiaoyu getting better day by day.It's just that he didn't know that under Wang Xiaoyu's calm surface, the seeds of hatred were sprouting and blooming.

As her body recovers day by day, Wang Xiaoyu feels that it is time for her to leave. Although her body has not fully recovered, this cannot stop her determination to take revenge. In order not to hurt Yanni, Wang Xiaoyu decides to leave secretly.

The night is as cool as water, the stars are dim, and the moon hangs alone in the sky. Because half of its body is covered by thick clouds, the world tonight is much darker than usual. Under the weak moonlight, a thin figure appears in the holy sky. near the mountains.

From far away, Wang Xiaoyu smelled a strong smell of burning. When she came to the vicinity of the holy mountain, she was even more stunned by the scene not far away. She saw that the originally lush holy mountain had been scorched black. There is not even a single intact tree on the mountain.

Although she didn't witness the burning house with her own eyes, everything in front of her eyes is enough to explain the thrill of the fire. When Wang Xiaoyu thought that Roy might die, she collapsed to the ground. She was like a person who suddenly lost her faith. Big tears flowed from those mournful pupils, one drop, two drops, three drops...

As the saying goes, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death. Half an hour later, Wang Xiaoyu decided to deceive herself again. No matter what, she must see Roy's body with her own eyes, otherwise, she would not be able to completely give up.

When she was about to reach the foot of the mountain, the burnt smell became more intense. Wang Xiaoyu looked at the damaged steps up the mountain, and a look of embarrassment flashed between her brows. Just as she was about to find another way, a strange phenomenon caused Wang Xiaoyu to go up the mountain. fish attention.

It turned out that at some point, some strange people appeared beside Wang Xiaoyu. At first, Wang Xiaoyu thought that these people were passers-by, but when she found that these people were getting closer and closer to her, the alarm bells rang in her heart.

On such a cold day, a group of people stood near the foot of the mountain, which was obviously unreasonable. Thinking of the search a while ago, Wang Xiaoyu ran away.

"Stop!" This group of people originally wanted to catch Wang Xiaoyu secretly, but when they saw the other party running away, they knew that their behavior had been exposed. In order to get a high reward, everyone ran wildly stand up.
