In fact, Chaolu's main purpose is to rescue the weak chicken girl who sold herself to bury her father, and by the way, she found someone to fight to relieve her boredom, but she didn't expect that she would be arrested before she could fight, so she was a little lacking in confidence.

"Hmph...... I—I'm saving people! "Twist her face hard, find someone to fight or something, she won't admit it!

Chen Yao raised his eyebrows, and a playful smile appeared on his expressionless face, which had been tense since just now, "So what?" ”

Somewhat overwhelmed by Chen Yao's inexplicable question, she was shocked, and moved her heels and took two steps back, "What else, don't you see how pitiful that little girl is?" ”

"Okay, now that the person has been saved, it's time to go back, right?" Chen Yao asked indifferently, but without waiting for Chaolu to answer, he picked her up very strongly and left.

"Wait—"

As soon as he took two steps, the girl's timid cry came from behind him.

Chaolu turned her head curiously, only to see the girl running to her and Chen Yao like a frightened deer, a pair of white and slender hands like shallots rubbing the hem of her skirt uneasily, and it took a long time before she mustered up the courage to say, "Please, please help me!" ”

Seeing her miserable appearance, Chaolu was about to speak, but was coldly interrupted by Chen Yao - "Why? ”

“……”

As soon as these words came out, not only the girl who sold herself to bury her father, but even Chaolu was taken aback.

She raised her head blankly to look at Chen Yao beside her, only to see that the chill on the young man's face had not faded, and the sharp gaze like a sword blade made people dare not approach, "We are not related to you, why should we help you?" ”

"Chen Yao, how can you say such a thing......" Chaolu, who was stunned for a long time before coming back to her senses, hurriedly pulled the young man's placket, "She's already very pitiful!" ”

Who knew that Chen Yao sneered disdainfully, and said indifferently: "There are so many poor people in the world." In fact, he didn't want to target this girl, but for some reason, he always felt that the seemingly weak girl in front of him was not simple, and the kind of love deliberately hidden in his eyes couldn't deceive people - if he couldn't even see this, then his killer for more than ten years would be in vain.

But for Chaolu, who didn't understand Chen Yao's true thoughts at all, seeing his impersonal approach, he naturally became angry instantly, "If you don't want to help, then go back by yourself, but I'll take care of her affairs!" After speaking, he took the girl's hand and walked away quickly, "If you need my help, you can just say!" ”

The girl nodded gratefully, and told Asakaro what had happened to her - this girl's name was Hotaru, her father was a local hunter, and was seriously injured and killed by a wild beast when she went out into the wilderness yesterday, and she couldn't do funerals for her deceased father because of her poor family, so this hard-working girl had to make this decision in the hope that she could meet a kind person who helped her bury her father, and she was willing to be a slave and a maid as a reward.

"Sister, help me......" After saying that, these little fireflies knelt down in front of Chaolu and kowtowed, their faces were frighteningly pale, and their slender shoulders trembled like chaff.

"Oh, get up!" Startled, Chaolu hurriedly bent down and helped her up, "Don't worry, I'll find someone to bury your father later!" ”

Seeing the girl Xiaoyi thanking herself with gratitude, Chaolu sighed helplessly, and then looked back to see that the place where Chen Yao was standing just now was already empty, and she really couldn't understand what that kid was thinking, and she sulked at every turn......

So I spent some money to find a few locals to help Hotaru bury her father, and took her back to the tent where she rented the hotel, and when she saw the poor girl's thin and sickly face, she quickly ordered some food.

"That'...... What are you going to do in the future? Seeing Xiao Hotaru gobbling up as if she had been hungry for a long time, Chaolu was a little distressed.

Hotaru's clear and watery eyes widened, and she timidly put down the bread in her hand, "Hotaru wants to follow her sister, no, can't you......"

Considering that there are still countless dangers and tribulations on the road ahead, Chaolu wanted to refuse without hesitation, but when the words came to her mouth, she was blocked by the girl's hopeful eyes, she hesitated for a moment, and then looked at Hotaru in embarrassment, "Do you still have relatives to take refuge in?" I'll take you—"

"No, no," Hotaru hung her head helplessly, her eyes flashing with tears and pitiful, "Does my sister dislike Hotaru ......?"

"Huh? Don't get me wrong, that's not what I meant! "Although I'm also a woman, I don't know why Xiao Hotaru, who is much weaker than herself, wants to cry, she is at a loss like a man.

I didn't expect Chaolu to make such an argument, but Xiao Hotaru's love was completely out of control, and tears rolled down like beads with broken threads, "Xiao Hotaru just wants to follow her sister, and she can be a cow or a horse!" ”

In desperation, Chaolu had to temporarily promise to coax her to stop crying first, let's take one step at a time!

"Sister," Hotaru, who finally filled her stomach, raised her head a little nervously, "Looking at your dress, it should be from the original, right?" ”

Hearing Hotaru's question, Chaolu nodded while drinking tea, "yes, what's wrong?" ”

"The Central Plains is far away from here, I don't know why my sister came to this remote and small place?" After curiously asking the doubts in her heart, Hotaru also followed the example of morning dew and held the teacup in her palm to warm her hands, and her little face, which was originally as pale as paper, finally regained a little blood.

Talking about this topic, Chaolu had a bitter stomach, and ran all the way to this prairie in order to catch the red-eyed golden crow, but after squatting for so many days, not only did he not even pick up a bird feather, but he didn't even collect any useful information! Thinking that this little firefly was also a local, he had heard about this broken bird, so he asked tentatively.

Who knew that Xiao Hotaru reacted strongly and stood up from the table at once, and finally her ruddy face turned white again - "Red-eyed golden crow?!" ”

"You've heard of it?" Asaro looked up in surprise and looked at Hotaru with an excited expression.

"Hmm!" Hotaru nodded vigorously, her big eyes shining, "My father once said that there was a bird in the northwest of the grassland that resembles the legendary red-eyed golden crow......"

Happiness came too suddenly, and I never thought that the information that I had been looking for for for many days but couldn't get was blurted out so lightly from the mouth of the little girl I rescued with my hand, and Chaolu was stunned.

She was stunned for a long time, until joy bloomed in her heart like fireworks, she lifted her spirits and stood up, grabbed Hotaru's hand and said happily: "Hotaru, you are really my lucky star!" ”

I was about to say something more, but I heard the sound of the tent door curtain being lifted, and then Jun Wuye's usual brisk tone came from behind me - "The little lady is in a good mood today~"

"You have no night!"

Calling out in surprise, Chao Lu hurriedly turned around and ran to the handsome young man with a smile in the corner of his eyes, "I have good news for you, the whereabouts of the red-eyed golden crow have eyebrows!" ”

"yes, tell me about it?" Not at all infected by Chaolu's love, Jun Wuye still had a calm expression, his eyes swept over Xiao Hotaru not far away, but he didn't ask anything.

Chaolu dragged Jun Wuye to the table and sat down, and poured him a cup of tea very rarely, so he told him what Xiao Hotaru said, and planned to pack up his things and go to the northwest grassland to squat early tomorrow morning.

Regarding Chaolu's plan, Jun Wuye didn't put forward any opinions and acquiesced, but Chen Yao, who didn't return to his residence with a cold face until it was dark, was different, and seemed to be still angry about the things during the day, and walked away directly without looking at Chaolu when he entered the door, and didn't even come out to eat dinner.

Although she had been in contact for so long, she knew that Chen Yao was not very good-tempered, but she never expected that kid to be so ruthless - and he didn't ask him to donate money or anything else, just temporarily took in a weak woman who was helpless, it didn't make sense!

Forget it, leave him alone! Maybe it will get better in a few days......

Chaolu, who didn't think too much, also went back to his tent to pack up and sleep, and got up early tomorrow to go hunting!

……

Following.

Chaolu and the others, under the leadership of Xiao Hotaru, set off from the Xifeng tribe and rushed to the northwest of the grassland.

The vast grassland was endless, and there were a few traces of falcons flashing in the sky, but none of them were like the golden feathers that Jun Wuye described......

I started searching in the morning, but I didn't find anything until the afternoon.

Chaolu, who was tired and panting, stopped and looked back at Hotaru, the wind on the grassland was blowing extremely fiercely, and she was almost unable to stand, "Hotaru, is the place your father said this is?" ”

"I—I don't know, I should be......" Hotaru stared down at the grass with a panicked expression on her face.

Should?

Chaolu twitched the corners of her mouth speechlessly, but she couldn't blame Xiao Hotaru, after all, it was rare for people to be willing to provide clues and lead the way in person, so she couldn't ask for anything more.

I had no choice but to continue looking for it~ As soon as I turned around, I saw Jun Wuye looking up at the sky with his head tilted slightly, "It's not early, let's go back first." ”

"No, no!"

Surprisingly, Xiao Hotaru, who has always been afraid of life, plucked up the courage to shout out loud.

“…… Why can't you say no? Tatsuyo glanced at her coldly, and the hostility that had not subsided became even stronger.

Apparently frightened by Tatsuyo's fierce appearance, Hotaru hid behind Chaolu in shock.

"Tatsuyao!" Chaolu really couldn't help but shout angrily, "Can't you stop killing her-" I really don't understand why this kid has such a big opinion about Xiao Hotaru, and no one provokes him! turned around and comforted the frightened Hotaru softly: "Don't pay attention to him, that guy has a sick brain~ By the way, what did you want to say just now?" ”

"Uh-huh...... My father said that the red-eyed golden crow bird haunts at night! ”
