Xia Han started a new life.
However, the new life brought about by the second route did not have such a dramatic change. No matter how he looked to outsiders, Xia Han himself just sang everywhere according to his habit. His life was peaceful, and Xia Han did not hate this tranquility.
--and he has a new friend.
Wu Jian is different from others. She is the only person who belongs to Xia Han, so he is closer to her than others. Although she is a taciturn girl, she is very serious about her work and takes care of almost all of Xia Han's daily chores.
This made Xia Han's life more orderly.
In fact, it is difficult for a person's feelings to remain cold and solid at certain times. Maybe it is to welcome the first ray of sunshine together every day, and wait for the sunset together... Maybe it is to hear the girl sleeping on the floor saying "good night" every night.
, and when he got up in the middle of the night, he found that she was still washing clothes under the moonlight.
After getting along with dozens of riri night after night, Xia Han's heart that had been empty for so long was filled with someone. This certainly didn't mean that he fell in love with Wu Jian, but she at least became a 'relative' to him, the most beautiful person in the world.
People close to you.
He didn't mind Wu Jian's appearance because this girl had a delicate heart.
No one would stay by Xia Han's side without asking for anything in return like her. Even Bai Xue did it with her own little thoughts. Wu Jian seldom spoke, she just followed Xia Han quietly, day after day.
ri repeated her work.
In such a peaceful and happy life, Xia Han wandered around Jade City and the surrounding towns. His singing did not enter the eyes of the upper class, but it caused a huge sensation among the people at the bottom. There were even many civilians and businessmen from outside.
I trekked here just to see the beauty of their princess.
The sensation also brought trouble to Xia Han. It was okay to perform on a protected stage in Jade City, but he had to move quietly to stay safe every time he went to the countryside.
On this day, he returned to the city after finishing work in a town. On the way back to the city, they passed by a lively village. There were a large number of beast carcasses in this village, and the villagers took out their spatulas for cooking with smiles on their faces.
Xia Han's carriage was invited by the villagers. This village had hunted too many prey today, and the villagers full of joy invited passers-by to their banquet.
"It's fate to pass by here. Very few outsiders pass by this road. Eat hard!"
The people in the village were very generous. In fact, their women had scraped out good meat and took it home to marinate, but in the end there was still a lot left over. Xia Han rarely saw such a lively scene, so naturally he did not refuse.
Jade City is located in the center of the Yulin Mountains, and most of the towns and villages it controls are hidden in the mountains. In the evening, in the mountain village, people's shadows wax and wane, smoke rises with laughter, and the trees next to the houses are whirling, taking on a dim color in the setting sun.
color.
Xia Han wore a mask and sat on a stone on the side of the village. Even if he concealed his identity, he was not suitable to walk into the crowd because it would be easy to be exposed. Xiao Sheng walked among the villagers, and he explained to others that Xia Han was just an introvert.
younger sister.
No one doubts it.
"Your Highness..."
Wu Jian walked out of the village carrying several portions of barbecue, but stopped halfway. She looked at Xia Han, who was sitting alone under the sunset. His hair glowed golden in the evening wind, and when it fluttered, it looked like the rumored one.
As beautiful as an elf.
"Your Highness, this is your barbecue."
With a moment of surprise flashing in his eyes, Wu Jian handed the barbecue to Xia Han.
"Oh! Thank you."
Xia Han stood up and thanked her. He took the barbecue and started eating: "Is there no broth?"
"have."
Wu Jian lowered his head and replied calmly: "There were too many chili peppers in the broth, so I poured it out."
Xia Han raised his eyebrows. He eats spicy food, and he didn't hear anyone in the village shouting about the taste of chili. He was still shouting things like "It's so hot" and "This piece of meat is grilled well." Why?
Will no one shout "so spicy"?
"Forget it if you don't have it." However, Xia Han didn't care, as long as he had meat to eat.
Barbecue has a rich aroma of grass and trees, which is a typical rural taste. Villagers who make a living by hunting will not spend money to buy expensive spices, but they are so familiar with the forests where they have lived for generations that they have learned to use grass and trees instead.
Spices for cooking.
Xia Han was chewing this unique flavor of barbecued meat, and his face was filled with joy. However, the weather in the mountains changed at every turn, and it suddenly became dark.
The sun had not yet set, but a sudden dark cloud blocked the sun.
"It's going to rain, pack your things quickly!"
"Guests, you should also take a rest in the village!"
The people in the village began to pack their things hurriedly. They invited Xiao Sheng, but Xiao Sheng waved his hand and refused: "No, we have to hurry on."
He escorted Xia Han and Wu Jian into the carriage, and then left on the bumpy mountain road. The heavy rain poured down, hitting the carriage like hail. However, this carriage had been specially blessed.
This kind of wind and rain will not harm it.
However, something unexpected happened on the way back - the carriage could not withstand the bumps on the wet mountain road, and the wheels broke.
"Little princess, please get off the carriage and hide under a tree while we make repairs."
After Xiao Sheng went down and took a look, he felt that the situation was not optimistic. They had to tilt the carriage 45 degrees to carry out repairs, so Xia Han and the others had to temporarily get down and hide aside.
A hundred meters away from where the carriage stopped was a small stream. The stream was rushing under the heavy rain, and its original beautiful color became chaotic.
Xia Han and Wu Jian waited under a big tree not far from the stream.
"Your Highness, it seems to be raining heavily at dusk..." Wu Jian opened his mouth to break the silence. She stretched out her hand and gently brushed the leaves off Xia Han's shoulders, as if she was taking care of her own family.
"Well...it will probably be night by the time this rain stops." Xia Han smiled. He looked at the sky in front of him. The continuous rain curtain blocked all sight. It seemed that the return trip after the carriage was repaired was also a big problem.
question.
Wu Jian squeezed his body.
The tree was huge and dense, but it still couldn't block the falling raindrops. Wu Jian gave the best place to Xia Han, but let half of his body bear the falling raindrops.
"This is my job."
Before Xia Han could speak, Wu Jian calmly explained to him.
"That's it..." Xia Han took off the mask that covered half of his face and put it on Wu Jian's shoulder. The raindrops were blocked by it: "Then this is the work tool I gave you!
"
"Who would have thought that a mask can be used like this! Wu Jian, do you think I am a genius?"
Xia Han raised his eyebrows, feeling proud of himself.
"Well, yes... His Highness is a genius." Wu Jian smiled bitterly in her heart, but accepted the kindness. She knew that His Highness sometimes liked to use a joking tone to avoid the topic, thus leaving others at a loss.
On the other side, Xiao Sheng and the coachman were busy repairing the carriage in the heavy rain.
Xia Han didn't see the masked thief and couldn't help frowning: "That unprofessional masked man is lazy again..."
Wu Jian shook his head: "No, Your Highness, I think he should be working."
"What?"
"Look."
She pointed at the creek. Xia Han took a closer look and found that there was a trace of blood flowing in the muddy creek. It was the blood of the deceased. Perhaps it was because Xia Han had appeared more often, and he had recently begun to be affected by
There are many unexplained assassinations, and Xiao Sheng and the thieves maintain a high degree of vigilance every day.
"I think he is dealing with threats for you. This kind of weather is prone to accidents."
Wu Jian explained that Xia Han also understood that it was very dangerous to move forward in the heavy rain. He looked at the blood flowing in the stream and said nothing.
The rain was getting heavier, and Xia Han, who was taking shelter under a tree, suddenly heard a rustling sound. He looked up in surprise, and then a dark object fell from the sky.
"Your Highness is in danger!"
Wu Jian stretched out his hand and slapped it hard, knocking the black object to the ground.
"What is that?" Xia Han was startled. He turned around and saw that the black object on the ground was a bird's nest made of dead branches.
Perhaps the rainstorm was too strong and the bird's nest fell from the tree.
"See if there are any eggs inside!" Xia Han walked over and opened the bird's nest, but he didn't see any eggs - only the chick that was thrown to death was inside. This was a chick that hadn't grown wings yet.
, the whole body is furry and round, like a little native chicken.
"Zhi~" it shouted with its mouth open, and the sound was so weak that it was almost inaudible.
"Oops! It's injured...I heard that a baby bird that falls from a tree will no longer be recognized by its mother..." Xia Han seemed to have mentioned such a thing when recalling people and nature in his previous life, and he immediately caught the fat bird.
He got up and then returned to Wu Jian: "I can't help it, it looks very nutritious... Hmm... I took it home and cooked it."
"Your Highness, I think steaming is better." Wu Jian glanced at Fat Bird, seemingly as unsympathetic as her master.
A few hours later, they returned to the city lord's mansion.
But Wu Jian suddenly fell down, her face turned blue, and she claimed to have caught a cold. Wu Jing did not send anyone to treat her. He said coldly, "It will be better tomorrow anyway, why treat her." Wu Jian's body was very strange, and her
Illnesses and injuries will recover the next morning.
However, Xia Han couldn't bear to see her in such pain. He changed Wu Jian's clothes and helped her lie down on the bed.
"Wash... wash the clothes..." Late that night, Wu Jian struggled to wake up. Xia Han quickly stopped her, he had already washed the clothes.
"You caught a cold after so little rain. It seems that your body really needs to be replenished!" He took out a bowl of hot soup and fed it to the girl in the candlelight: "This is the fat bird in the evening. I asked someone to cook it."
It’s become soup..."
"Pfft..." Wu Jian almost spit out the hot soup: "Did you really kill it?" She thought Xia Han was joking.
Xia Han calmly took a sip of the soup and asked, "Is there any problem?"
"No... no problem..." Wu Jian finished the soup.
Then, the next day...
"Your Highness, why does this fat bird hanging in the cage at the door look so familiar?"
"It was picked up by the masked man. The rainstorm yesterday was really heavy..."
