Chapter 167 She always asks for 3
Chapter 167 She always asks for 3
Wen Chuyan is a very kind and gentle person; this is Song Xianyin's deepest impression of him.
"I'm sorry, but I have no choice but to do this." Wen Chuyan's face was full of guilt.
He really didn't want to kill, but it was so delicious.
He twisted his hand, and the chicken in his hand snapped at the neck and died instantly.
Wen Chuyan muttered something softly, which, according to Song Xianyin's understanding of him, was probably saying something nice to the poor pheasant.
After saying that, Wen Chuyan started plucking chicken feathers with red eyes. The woman next to him was deeply moved when she saw him like this.
Song Xianyin was also very touched, because all she asked him was if he could find another chicken, and he immediately set off without any hesitation.
Wen Chuyan had a large appetite, as did Song Xianyin, so the more Wen Chuyan looked at her, the more familiar she seemed.
The woman opposite was frail and would easily vomit after eating meat, so she could only eat vegetables. The man didn't like to eat anything and would only eat a few bites before stopping.
I've heard that people get a bad mood if they eat too little meat. No wonder he has such a bad temper, since he eats so little.
After resting in place for one night.
The man's face darkened when he saw Song Xianyin still with them: "When are you going to get out?"
Wen Chuyan looked at him disapprovingly: "Young Master Mu, please don't speak to Miss Song like that."
He looked at Song Xianyin with concern: "Miss Song, Fellow Daoist Mu didn't do it on purpose. He's just a bit straightforward, but he has a very good heart."
Mu Silan rolled his eyes at Song Xianyin; he hated useless people the most.
Song Xianyin's eyes reddened as she looked at Wen Chuyan: "Young Master Wen, may I go with you? I really have nowhere else to go."
Wen Chuyan hesitated greatly: "But... I already promised Young Master Mu and Miss Jiang."
He cannot break the agreement between them.
Song Xianyin wiped away non-existent tears from her eyes: "I am not favored at home."
“My parents would beat and scold me constantly. I also had a younger brother, so the elders in the family disliked me even more.”
Song Xianyin choked up as she said, "A few days ago, my father sold me to the eldest son of the Li family. I didn't want to, so I risked having my legs broken to escape."
Mu Silan snorted coldly. They had heard no fewer than a hundred such stories on the road.
Feeling guilty under his gaze, Song Xianyin cried louder and louder to hide her unease.
Suddenly, she heard a strange sound coming from beside her.
She looked over in bewilderment. Wen Chuyan's face was covered in tears. He was clenching his teeth tightly, trying not to cry out.
Wen Chuyan looked at her with teary eyes: "Miss Song, you have really suffered."
The two people opposite: ...
Wen Chuyan cried harder and harder until he could barely breathe.
Song Xianyin was startled by his appearance and quickly comforted him: "Young Master Wen, don't be sad. I've been much better off since I met you all."
Wen Chuyan was sobbing uncontrollably. He looked at the two people opposite him and pleaded, "Fellow Daoist Mu, Fellow Daoist Jiang, please accept Miss Song."
He couldn't bear to abandon Miss Song; it would be too pitiful.
Mu Silan's lips twitched, but she didn't say anything.
Jiang Wange smiled gently and said, "Fellow Daoist Wen, if you want Miss Song to stay, then let her stay. Amu and I will listen to you."
Wen Chuyan was finally relieved.
He quietly stuffed a lot of food into Song Xianyin's mouth.
Wen Chuyan glanced at Song Xianyin: "Miss Song, once we arrive in the capital, I'll have the head butler find you an easier job."
It's too hard and dangerous to follow them.
Song Xianyin asked in confusion, "The head butler?"
Wen Chuyan nodded: "My father is the richest merchant in the capital. He owns many shops. I will have the head steward take you to see them later."
Song Xianyin fell completely silent: "Your family is so rich."
Wen Chuyan looked at her with some surprise: "It's alright, but money isn't important. I'm not interested in money at all. Cultivation is more important."
"It's true, the head butler told me that my father was the richest merchant in the capital. I had never paid any attention to it before. My family is just a little bit richer than other families."
“Cultivation is my most important pursuit, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that my father is the richest merchant in the capital.”
Song Xianyin secretly rolled her eyes. She had only asked one question, but he kept talking so much, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't know that his father was the richest merchant in the capital.
Wen Chuyan was overjoyed to see Song Xianyin's expression remained unchanged.
He was genuinely happy that Miss Song, despite knowing his family was wealthy, didn't look down on him.
Many people, after learning that his family was wealthy, always felt that he had ulterior motives for practicing Buddhism, but he didn't.
The four of them kept walking forward. The further they went, the thinner the air became and the darker their vision became.
The dense forest enveloped them, and sparse light filtered through the gaps in the leaves, emitting a faint green glow.
Their breathing became more and more rapid, and Song Xianyin quickly hid behind them.
Mu Silan glanced at her impatiently and pushed her to the front.
Wen Chuyan's expression was serious. He held up his sword and led Song Xianyin behind him.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the space, and they sensed that something was stirring in the darkness.
"brush--"
A tree branch suddenly came at them, whipping them hard.
Song Xianyin was startled and quickly used an invisibility spell to become invisible.
She quickly ran behind a big tree to hide, not believing that these tree branches with eyes would attack her again.
The forest seemed to come alive, with countless branches twisting and turning wildly, rushing towards them.
"Watch out!" Wen Chuyan stood at the front, cutting off the branches that kept attacking them.
Both Mu Silan and Jiang Wange were injured, and Wen Chuyan was having a hard time dealing with these things on his own.
Wen Chuyan's expression was extremely serious. He pinched his fingers together, and his spiritual power immediately repelled those tree branches.
"Get out of there!" he shouted.
Fellow Daoist Mu and Fellow Daoist Jiang are both injured, so staying here won't be of much help, and he'll also have to spare some attention to protect them.
Fellow Daoist Song was much smarter; he hadn't seen her since the branches first appeared.
The twisted shape of those branches was so frightening that Song Xianyin almost vomited after just one glance.
She ran deep into the ruins, and the branches of the trees twitched in surprise where she had run.
How can I feel human touch, but not see any people?
Wen Chuyan dispersed most of the attacks, and Song Xianyin ran behind the stone gate, finally seeing what she wanted.
She quickly flipped through it, but well, she couldn't understand a single word.
On the other side, Wen Chuyan was still fighting with those tree branches.
"Don't hurt them, they're already injured. If you're going to kill someone, kill me instead!"
Upon hearing the sound coming from the air, Song Xianyin's lips twitched.
