"I hate it so much. My brother just looks down on me."
A soft but dissatisfied voice sounded in the dark forest.
Meng Yao was leaning on a stone pier beside the stream outside the deep forest, with dry branches burning on the ground.
He didn't dare to sleep too deeply outside, but when this sound came out, Meng Yao was instantly awakened.
"Who?" He looked around vigilantly, and when he saw nothing, he breathed a sigh of relief. He must have been hallucinating because he was too tired from traveling recently.
He leaned on the stone pier and prepared to continue resting.
"ah."
A woman's scream frightened him to stand up. He cautiously held the fire stick and looked around carefully.
I saw a shimmering light in the forest. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to see it.
This place is located in Lanling, and this forest is a relatively dangerous place in Lanling. According to the residents of Lanling, demons have appeared here recently.
Meng Yao didn't want to take this road at first, but this road was the shortest way to the Lanling Jin family's mansion, so he decided to take the risk.
Was that the cry of a demon just now? But the demon's cry shouldn't be like this, Meng Yao hesitated.
He didn't want to cause trouble, he just wanted to walk to Lanling safely and fulfill his mother's expectations.
It's just...that's all. Meng Yao hesitated for a moment, and when he saw the cry of pain coming from inside, he closed his eyes and finally walked in with the sword he bought.
Just do a good deed that day to accumulate blessings for your mother.
In the deep forest, Su Baoer accidentally stepped on a trap used by hunters to hunt. The weapons under the trap were jagged and pierced straight into her feet.
Su Baoer sat on the ground and hugged his knees, and couldn't help crying: "Brother smelly, it's all your fault, now A Bao is going to die here."
She endured the pain and muttered: "Poor Po, he is going to die by the weapons of the Orion, he might as well die by the mouth of the demon."
"Pfft," someone's laughter sounded.
Su Baoer cried harder and hugged herself tightly: "It's over, the monster is coming, and A Bao is going to be eaten."
"Girl, I'm not a monster."
The person who came here was wearing a simple dark blue dress. He seemed to have worn this dress for many years, and it had become pilled by washing.
The most conspicuous thing is the dimples on his cheeks and his round eyes.
so cute.
When Su Baoer looked at him, he was also looking at Su Baoer.
Wearing a pale pink dress embroidered with cherry blossoms, and a few cherry blossom hairpins on her head, she is delicate and cute. Thinking of the way she was talking to herself just now, she must be a little girl who is pampered by her family.
She is also a girl who likes cherry blossoms.
The fabric of this dress and the quality of the jewelry are something that even Yunmeng's dignitaries have rarely seen wearing. This girl's family must be extremely prominent.
Thinking of this, Meng Yao's smile faded a little. He and she were not the same person.
He put down his sword, and with the help of the lighting beads Su Baoer threw on the ground, he squatted down and carefully removed the trap set by the Orion for her.
Su Baoer stopped crying and looked blankly at the person coming: "Brother, do you want to save me?"
Meng Yao nodded: "Don't move, this thing will hurt you even more if it moves."
"Brother, you are so kind," the soft voice was filled with joy, as if meeting him made her feel very happy.
Meng Yao smiles lightly, is he okay? How can a child born into a prostitute survive in a discriminatory environment? He felt a little sarcastic in his heart. He just felt that this girl was too innocent to be protected by her family.
After being quiet for a while, Su Baoer couldn't hold back her words. Seeing Meng Yao's skillful movements, she asked softly and curiously: "Brother, how do you know how to solve this?"
"It will come naturally if you walk outside often."
Su Bao'er was even more confused. He would do this if he often walked outside, but he didn't see his brother who often went out hunting at night doing this.
Could it be because she met this brother before, so she knew it? She pursed her lips and looked at Meng Yao with some distress.
She took the elixir worth thousands of gold, but still felt the wound on her foot was so painful. It was hard to imagine how he spent his time at that time.
Su Baoer never concealed her expression, and her distressed expression was too obvious.
This was the first person besides his mother who cared about him. The sourness in Meng Yao's heart flashed, and he had to reply: "It's over."
Then he asked: "Can you try to stand up?"
He was a little far away from her. Even just now he had been abiding by the rules and never got too close to Su Baoer. He was afraid of hurting her reputation.
She could only stand up and walk this part of the way, he couldn't carry him on her back.
Su Baoer staggered and tried to stand up, but fell to the ground again.
With tears in her eyes, she looked at Meng Yao softly: "My feet hurt."
The gentle tone sounded like coquettishness, and Meng Yao's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"It was my negligence," Meng Yao knelt down and looked at Su Baoer's eyes, her tears falling drop by drop.
He touched the handkerchief on his heart, hesitated for a moment but finally didn't hand it over.
