Chapter 42: Beauty and the Beast
A huge figure appeared on the stairs, and Yang Yi could see clearly through the light of the magic wand...... It can't be called a man, it can only be called a monster, because it has a lion-like head, its face is furry, its two eyes are like copper bells, exuding a vicious light, two fangs are exposed, and the most peculiar thing is that the monster's chin is not known to be a beard or long hair, sparsely woven into a small braid.

This is a complete monster, but it has a human body, wearing a wide and gorgeous robe, and a pair of leather boots on his feet, the momentum is surging, the monster is really a little scary, Forman and Belle are already scared like quails, Yang Yi looked at the monster, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Belle beside him, very beautiful, no worse than Snow White.
Yang Yi suddenly remembered this famous fairy tale, since he knew that it was not a real beast, Yang Yi was not too afraid, the beast's throat gurgled non-stop, walked over quickly, and shouted at the three of them: "Who are you, why did you come to my castle?"
The voice was dull and weird, echoing in the closed environment of the castle, if he didn't know the story of Beauty and the Beast, Yang Yi estimated that he could be frightened, but now that the plot is known, what are you afraid of?
"I'm the one who came to save you......" Yang Yi shook the magic wand in his hand, the monster roared angrily, grabbed Yang Yi with one hand, grabbed Forman and Belle with the other hand, turned around and left, and roared angrily: "The castle is my private territory, you come in without permission, I will lock you all up." β
"No, no, Mr. Monster, I'm here for my father, his name is Movis, have you seen him?"
The monster's footsteps stopped, and Yang Yi was even more sure that this was Beauty and the Beast, and he had the impression that the beauty was the beast she met only after looking for her father, and in order to save her father, the beauty stayed to live with the beast...... In the end, love also arises, and it is clichΓ© that the prince was also cast by a witch and turned into a beast.
"I'm a magician, you can't ...... me like this" Forman struggled hard, but Yang Yi suddenly shouted at him: "Shut up, I'm the magician." Fuman didn't know why Yang Yi said this, and glared at Yang Yi, Yang Yi winked at him.
The monster ignored Belle's cries, and went up to the second floor with the three of them as if they were chickens, and walked quickly to the rightmost room, and when he opened the door, he saw a huge iron cage in the room, and in the iron cage was a trembling old man.
The old man was in his fifties, his hair was gray, and he was shrunk together, of course it was Belle's father Movis, seeing his father, Belle exclaimed, turned his head and shouted at the beast: "Mr. Beast, please let my father go, he is old, if you want to eat, eat me, I will replace my father, okay?"
The beast was very angry when he heard Belle's words, and threw Belle to the ground suddenly, and the unlucky Forman also suffered from the seedlings, I don't know if it was that sentence that stimulated Mr. Beast, Yang Yi estimated that it was the sentence to eat me, the beast was just about to throw Yang Yi to the ground, Yang Yi whispered to the beast: "You used to be a prince, is that rose about to wither?"
The beast's hand suddenly stopped, his breathing began to become heavy, and a pair of eyes stared at Yang Yi, Yang Yi looked at the beast's hideous face, and still said softly: "If you want to break the witch's curse, lock them up and let me go!"
The beast stared at Yang Yi fiercely, Yang Yi looked at him without showing weakness, and after a long while, the beast gently put Yang Yi on the ground, stretched out his big hand to open the iron cage, and pushed Belle and Forman in, Forman was immediately stunned, and shouted to Yang Yi: "Why did you put me in a cage, but not you in a cage?"
"Because I'm a great knight master!" Yang Yi looked at Fu Man and said lightly, and flicked the lace on the cuffs in a chic manner, the beast glanced at Yang Yi, and let out a beast-like voice in his throat: "Follow me!"
Of course, Yang Yi had to follow the beast, the storm outside was too big, if he wanted to get out of the castle safely, he had to deal with the beast, followed the beast out of the house, and came to a study along the long corridor, this is really a European classical study, which is full of solid wood furniture, very coarse.
Standing next to the window of the study, you can see the courtyard of the entire castle, the field of vision is very broad, on the windowsill, there is a delicate porcelain vase, the porcelain vase is inserted in a bright red rose, the rose is as red as blood, but it is gradually withering, Yang Yi walked to the side of the rose, secretly recalled the plot of Beauty and the Beast.
"Who are you, why do you know that I am a prince, how do you know that the rose is going to wither? Who are you? Are you an accomplice of the witch? If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you!" The beast opened his mouth to threaten Yang Yi, but Yang Yi was unmoved, looking at the roses in the porcelain vase, as if he was stupid, and said lightly: "What a beautiful rose, but unfortunately, it is about to wither." β
Yang Yi, who was pretending to be forced, wanted to give himself ten points, but the beast couldn't get used to him pretending to be forced, and a voice similar to a low roar broke out in his throat, and he said in a deep voice: "If you don't say it, I'll kill you now!"
Seeing that the monster was about to be furious, Yang Yi couldn't care about pretending to be forced, and hurriedly shouted: "Wait, did you live in a splendid castle before? One cold winter night, an old beggar woman came to your castle, and she offered you a red rose, begging you to shelter her from the cold. But when you see that she is ugly and strange, you will drive her away. The old beggar woman says to you, "Inner beauty is true beauty." β
"You still won't let her stay, and the old beggar woman has suddenly become a beautiful witch! To punish you, she has turned you into ugly beasts, and your servants into all sorts of vessels. Since then, your castle has been deserted, and you have locked yourself in it, only to see the outside world through a magic mirror. β
"The witch left you roses. If you learn to love others before the roses fade, and at the same time you can get their love, the magic can be broken, otherwise you will never regain your human form! Am I right?"
Of course, what Yang Yi said was right, that's what was written in the story, the beast's body stiffened, panting, and seemed to suppress its anger, and after almost three minutes, the beast said gloomily to Yang Yi: "Who are you? Why do you know so much detail?"
"I am a knight of Lockeshire, and I am also the prince of the Dragon Kingdom, and I know about you because I have seen a caterpillar prophet, he has an oracle scroll, and I saw your story on the oracle scroll, but I didn't expect to be able to actually meet you, my Royal Highness, prince, do you say this is the will of heaven? β
The beast listened to Yang Yi's words in a daze, and tears suddenly flowed, have you ever seen a beast shed tears? Yang Yi saw it, such a rude image actually cried like a child, Yang Yi was stunned, and couldn't help but comfort him: "Don't cry, I'm here, I will definitely be able to help you lift the spell, in fact...... You've been okay, I know there's a prince who turned into a frog. β
"Also, don't offend the old lady in the future, the old ladies are really terrible, because the old ladies will not only touch the porcelain, but also may be witches, lying in the groove, in the future, we will help the old lady to cross the road, there are people who ask for food, what do you want......"
"By the way, how long have you been locked up in the castle. Yang Yi said a bunch of words, and the beast was still crying, until Yang Yi asked him how long he had been imprisoned, the beast stopped crying, and said: "I don't know, the time in the castle is different from the outside, the whole castle has been changed by witchcraft, I sit here and see that the seasons are constantly changing outside, the original city has disappeared and become a forest...... But here, it will always be like this. β
The disappearance of a kingdom is by no means possible in a short period of time, and the castle of a kingdom will never be surrounded by a forest, perhaps hundreds of years have passed, that is to say, after the beast was enchanted by a witch, everything changed, relatives, the kingdom did not exist, the only thing that did not change was him and those servants who were enchanted.
Yang Yi sighed, but the beast suddenly knelt down on one knee at Yang Yi's feet, and said sincerely: "I am a brave prince, I can fight well, before I became a beast, half of the territory of my father's kingdom was fought down by the soldiers I led, as long as you can save me, let me change back to my original appearance, and I will not suffer pain, I am willing to follow you and be your faithful servant." β
Yang Yi was a little caught off guard by the beast's hand, and before Lao Tzu could shake the tiger's body, there was a little brother who bowed his head? However, this feeling is really damn good...... Especially when the beast said that he could fight well, Yang Yi was even more moved, he was not willing to be an ordinary knight, even if he couldn't go back to the real world, he wanted to be the greatest emperor in the fairy tale world.
A man should be a careerist, and he is just starting out, now is the time when he needs manpower, just looking at the tall and mighty appearance of the beast, even if he turns back into a human, he can't help but be overjoyed, this is simply a good thing that falls from the sky, and immediately said to the beast seriously: "Believe me, I can not only save you and let you return to your original appearance, as long as you follow me, I can also help you restore your original country and let you have the throne of an earl." β
Yang Yi bragged, but the beast didn't move, which made Yang Yi very surprised, even if there would be no applause at this time, shouldn't he also show his loyalty? Unexpectedly, the beast raised his head and looked at him fiercely and said: "If you can't save me, not only will you not be able to get out of my castle, but I will also kill you." β
Yang Yi looked up at the roof, almost burst into tears, his tiger body was not shaken, it was really a mistake, there is really no free lunch in the world......
