Love from the Male Protagonist's Harem

When he was strangled by the demonized puppet, Ye Ze felt ashamed at first about Xia Wuyin's sacrifice to save him.

When he came back that night, he didn't talk to Xia Wuyin because he felt that he was ashamed in front of Xia Wuyin.

As the son of Ye's eldest son, he actually had such a despicable idea at that moment - using other people's lives to indulge his greed for life and fear of death.

Also in the name of revenge.

It was a shame for the Ye family.

Furthermore, he looks taller than Xia Wuyin and older than Xia Wuyin, but in the end he was asked to save him...

Very shameful.

Very humiliating.

He tossed and turned all night.

The eyes of the ragged young boy who usually smiled and bent carelessly, but suddenly lit up at that moment were all in his mind.

"Say you believe me."

At that time, he said so.

Obviously he...Xia Wuyin was also afraid.

But at that moment, in those eyes, he couldn't see the slightest fear, only the lonely bravery of winning or losing or dying.

As if as long as he said that sentence.

Then he can go forward indomitably and be invincible.

Like a burning sun.

Brilliantly dazzling.

When the morning light shines, the darkness before the dawn covers the sky and the earth.

He got up, and quietly glanced at the little boy who was sleeping soundly under the willow tree.

he thinks.

At that time, this sissy was so handsome.

Just like the young heroes of the Ye family's generations in the mother's story.

But since the puppet master came back from parading in the streets that day, Ye Ze found that Xia Wuyin, who always liked to follow him and was smiling all day long, was gone.

It's not gone either.

It just doesn't stick to him like a jellybean anymore.He was also very silent when begging, and the things he begged became less.

As if thinking about something.Looks a little melancholy.

When Ye Ze had this brown candy before, he found it very troublesome and avoided it like a snake.

When people ignored him, he felt bad instead, and he was a little worried about gains and losses.

The night is foggy.

Everyone in the temple is asleep.

Ye Ze walked up to Xia Wuyin, broke open the plum blossom cakes he had hidden, and distributed them to Xia Ge who was in a daze under the willow tree.

"Here."

The plum cake is very fragrant.

Xia Ge was taken aback, raised his head to look at Ye Ze, paused, and took it.

Jin Thigh actually came to curry favor with her?Strange.

The little boy sat next to her, his voice was a bit awkward, "...what's the matter with you these days?"

Xia Ge thought, what else can I do.

She has justly rejected the system's promotion proposal for the puppet master, and firmly and definitely established the legitimate ideal of being a free little beggar in the world.

As long as she doesn't hold your golden thigh, her future will be brilliant in the beggar career.

But the system didn't know whether or not the lofty ideals she set up, and just said with certainty: "You will definitely become a puppet master."

She was very upset at the system's affirmative tone.

Therefore, they didn't have a good impression of this golden thigh who was appointed by the system to help one after another.

It’s enough for the little beggar to eat enough every day. Little beggars don’t need to hug their thighs. Thinking about it carefully, this puppet system is a system to assist the male protagonist. Embracing the male protagonist’s thighs is to lead himself to the puppet master’s path of death Push up.

Just stop hugging and be happy.

The male lead has a male lead halo, he is the child of destiny, destined not to die, but she has nothing, is nothing, becoming a puppet master might be cannon fodder.

Is it not good to live?

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Ye Ze thought for a while, and said with some hesitation: "...Did you not be happy yesterday?"

yo huh.Master Jin Thigh still cares about the suffering of cannon fodder, no wonder there are three thousand pairs of beauties in the harem, and countless younger brothers hug their thighs.

Xia Ge smiled: "No."

Ye Ze thought for a while, then hesitated and said, "When I came back yesterday, I heard the old beggar say...that puppet master ran away."

He seemed to be struggling psychologically, and after a long time, he whispered, "I... I also think that, the puppet master is quite pitiful."

This is a hesitant agreement with what Xia Ge said yesterday.

--lie.

Can you be more sincere when you say something against your will, with a forced face that makes people look very sad.

Xia Ge thought.

She heard Ye Ze cautiously say again: "So, ma'am... Xia Wuyin, don't be unhappy."

Ye Ze silently changed the sissy name to Xia Ge's name.

Xia Ge couldn't tell what it felt like.

Very complicated.

After a while, she took a bite of the plum cake and said with a smile, "I didn't say I was unhappy."

Ye Ze shook his head: "But you are not with me anymore."

Xia Ge: "...I thought you would be very happy if I wasn't with you."

It's true that it might have been fun before...

Ye Ze was silent for a while, then took a bite of the plum cake, and changed the subject as if nothing had happened, "Xia Wuyin, do you know your birthday?"

Xia Ge: "Birthdate? I don't know."

Ye Ze thought for a while, "Is there any special day for birthday?"

Most beggars are discarded. I don’t know that there are many people who have birthdays. Some people don’t care, but some people will choose a suitable day for their birthday.

Xia Ge: "A special day? Let me think about it... If I have to say it, it should be May [-]st."

Labor Day, labor is the most glorious!

And it's also her modern day birthday.

The May [-]st here seems to be calculated according to the lunar calendar, but anyway, no one celebrates her birthday, and it doesn't matter if it is in the lunar calendar or the Gregorian calendar.

Ye Ze: "Then how old are you?"

Xia Ge: "I don't know."

Ye Ze affirmed: "I am nine years old... I am taller than you, and must be older than you."

Is taller than her older than her?What logic, what do you make people think.

Xia Ge also said affirmatively: "I am 23 years old."

Ye Ze: "Just blow it."

Xia Ge: "...All right."

The system suddenly said: "Eight years old."

Xia Ge was taken aback.

The system repeated: "Eight years old, this body."

So Ye Ze is nine years old, so he is indeed older than her.

Xia Ge was thinking.

"Xia Wuyin..."

Suddenly, I heard Ye Ze's soft voice, a little soft.

Xia Ge looked up at him.

The boy slightly avoided her eyes, and whispered: "Since I'm older than you...can you call me...brother?"

"……puff."

Xia Ge felt a little bad under the anxious gaze of the young man, but he still couldn't hold back.

Although it is true that she is much, much taller than she is now, but... let a young girl with a mental age of 23, ahem, call a nine-year-old brother——

Xia Ge imagined the modern 1.7m high-heeled Ye Ze with her, and then called him brother or elder brother in a serious way...

"Ye Ze, you actually want to be my brother hahaha—"

It's a little hard to imagine, and I feel inexplicably happy.

Ye Ze: "..."

Ye Ze was silent for a while.

"...Is it funny?"

he asks.

Xia Ge stopped smiling, shook his head, and said seriously, "It's not funny."

"If it's not funny, then don't laugh!"

Ye Ze stood up, threw away the plum cake in his hand, turned around and left.

Sudden anger.

Xia Ge held the red sweet-scented osmanthus cake, raised his eyebrows slightly, "Hey, he's angry."

System: "You did it on purpose."

Xia Ge was seriously puzzled: "No, isn't it funny? I think it's quite funny."

System: "..." You definitely did it on purpose.

Xia Ge raised his eyebrows, looked at the night, closed his eyes and was about to rest.

However, she didn't rest for long when she heard footsteps.Out of vigilance, she raised her head and glanced casually, and saw a black figure slowly walking towards the small forest not far from the ruined temple.

Xia Ge didn't take it to heart, thinking that it was some beggar boy who couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and went to the woods to have a wind, so he was going to look away. However, just as he looked back, his heart moved slightly.

This man... looks a little strange when he walks.

injured?

Meal by meal...

Xia Ge thought for a while, stood up, and followed.

The man seemed genuinely hurt.

Ghost Shadow Mizong activated silently, all auras were concealed to the minimum, that person seemed to be injured, so Xia Ge followed him all the way into the depths of the grove, and did not find her.

The moonlight shone in through the fine leaves of the forest, and Xia Ge saw the other party's face.

Her pupils shrank slightly.

It turned out to be the puppet master named A Lan yesterday! ?Wasn't it burned yesterday——

Ye Ze's words still echoed in his ears.

——I heard the old beggar say...that puppeteer ran away.

It turned out that she really ran away... What is she doing here?

After a while, Xia Ge found the answer.

The moonlight was sparse, and the old man with a cattail fan came out slowly from the shadow of the deep forest.

Xia Ge held his breath.

It turned out to be...an old beggar?

"Long time no see, old housekeeper."

A Lan's voice was very cold, "The Chang family has been looking for you for so many years, I never thought you would be hiding here."

"I'm getting old, and I just want to find a place to live in peace." The old beggar paused, "I never expected to meet you here."

Hearing this, Xia Ge was extremely shocked.

The two chatted one after another, and the opening remarks were over, as if reminiscing about the old days, they talked a lot casually.

Judging from the words, this old beggar is the old housekeeper of the Chang family, and Ah Lan...or Chang Lan is the younger sister of the current head of the Chang family.

The two of them actually have a relationship, which Xia Ge never expected.

It sounds like the old butler was hunted down by the Chang family because he knew something three years ago, and ended up working as a beggar in this small town to avoid being hunted down.

Alan shamed the Chang family because she was discovered to be practicing puppetry, and was finally exiled in the name of Yunyou, and happened to meet Cuizhu who was going out on a begging day...

Xia Ge of the Chang family knows that although they are famous families in the book, the characters in it are all cannon fodder who were slapped in the face on the growth path of the male protagonist.

It seems that they were all conquered by the domineering hero in a short time and became younger brothers. The hero led them to conquer the Demon Cult.

So... These two people should have some entanglements with the people inside the Chang family?

The two chatted for a while, and the old beggar said: "After so many years, you have grown up too, your brother..."

He paused, hesitated to speak.

"A few years ago, I heard that my elder brother had entanglements with Qin Yue, the leader of the Demon Cult." Alan did not shy away from it, and her voice was flat, teasing vaguely, "I heard that I have a daughter, and my elder brother is a passionate person."

Chang Lan's elder brother is the Patriarch of the Chang Family, so what she is talking about...the Patriarch of the Chang Family and the leader of the Demon Cult?

Xia Ge: "..."

It doesn't say that in the book!Nonsense, right?

The old beggar smiled, "Then you must have heard that three years ago, Qin Yue and her daughter were besieged and killed by the ranks in Baiyue Valley. She fought her way out of the siege and hid her daughter, but she also entered Jianfeng Mountain Prison..."

"I know about it, she could have escaped with her daughter."

"If you don't believe in the facts, I want to talk to my brother about the past."

A Lan laughed: "What a stupid woman."

Fragmentary conversations, like chatting, also like exchanging scandals about the Patriarch of the Chang family.

Xia Ge silently sorted out the context behind.

It probably means that this sentimental Patriarch of the Chang family prostituted Qin Yue, the leader of the Demon Cult, and Qin Yue gave birth to him a daughter, and then he seemed to use the naive leader of the Demon Cult for something, and after that, he He invited someone to Baiyue Valley in the name of a date...

It was supposed to be a beautiful scene after dusk with the head of the willow tree on the moon. As a result, Qin Yue, who brought her daughter full of expectations, did not wait for her lover, but was besieged and killed by decent people. The lover of Yuexia the previous month betrayed her, so she desperately took her daughter out of the siege, hid her away, and went to confront the head of the Chang family...

As a result, he was captured on the spot.

Facing Qin Yue's criticism.

A Lan's ruthless elder brother also said: "It's really a demon girl, she will never change her nature and talk nonsense."

His daughter was born to him, but in exchange for a nonsense.

What a human tragedy, it is really embarrassing.

Xia Ge sighed.

Men, they are all big trotters.

From Ah Lan's mouth, it can be known that Qin Yue seemed to be a high priest in charge of divination before sitting on the throne of the leader of the Demon Cult.

Abbreviated as stupid.

"The Chang family should still be looking for Qin Yue's daughter." A Lan said, "Qin Yue was originally the high priest of the Demon Cult, and her spiritual power was born with strong spiritual power. The spiritual power of the priests is passed on from daughter to son, and it will become stronger and stronger with the inheritance. , her daughter's spiritual power will only be higher than hers in the future, if it is not eliminated, it will definitely be a problem in my brother's heart after ten years."

The old butler shook his head. "No."

"Oh?" Alan was a little surprised, and then taunted: "Didn't you look for it? You have done too many bad things, do you want to accumulate some evil for yourself?"

The old beggar didn't speak for a while, and said, "Don't talk about your elder brother, you yourself..."

The aggressive Alan suddenly fell silent.

The moonlight is less than a bowl, reflecting the woman's black hair dyed with hoarfrost.

Seems to have aged a lot.

Xia Ge thought of the demonized puppet named Cui Zhu, and his heart tightened slightly.

The old beggar said: "You know that the ten-year period has come, why don't you..."

Why not kill that puppet?

He paused, "As long as you do that, nothing will happen."

a long time.

When Xia Ge thought she would not answer.

The woman named A Lan raised her head slightly, a tear in the corner of her eye reflected in the cold moonlight.

she murmured.

"I... can't do it."

"Because of that, there will be nothing left." Alan murmured, "We... will not even have the next life."

"I can not do it."

Even if it was just a demonized empty shell, she wanted to stay.

It's just that she didn't set up defenses for a while... thinking that Cui Zhu hadn't been completely demonized yet, so she ran out.

Only then did the unexpected things happen yesterday.

It's just that the reason why demonizing puppets is a forbidden technique is not only because it will demonize and hurt people after ten years, but also because it goes against the sky and uses puppets to lust for the souls of the world, or become evil ghosts, or disperse their souls, and never die. Reincarnation, no afterlife.

The old man was silent for a long time.

There was a final sigh.

"Alan."

"So many years."

"Why are you still so selfish?"

A Lan suddenly smiled, "But, ten years."

"In the next life, where can I find her?"

"In the next life, she won't know me, she will fall in love with someone else."

"I can't find the ten years she can give me."

"I'll never find anyone like her again."

The moonlight was icy cold, and Ah Lan's eyes were sad and indifferent, she murmured, "Just thinking of such a possibility, I'm going to die."

"If that's the case, I'd rather she die out of her wits."

There was a crazy smile on the corner of her mouth, "As long as she is with me, just one more second, one more moment, no matter what, I think it's worth it."

"In this way, she will always love me alone."

"forever and ever."

"Until death."

She's really a selfish woman to the core, it's really unlucky that Cui Zhu fell in love with her.

Xia Ge squatted in the grass, touching the goose bumps on his body.

The old man listened silently, without expressing any opinion, but said: "Your identity as a puppet master has been exposed, I will help you once, for the sake of the old man...you should leave here as soon as possible."

"I'm not leaving here."

"This is her hometown."

Alan smiled lowly, with a hint of sadness in his smile, "I have never liked to owe favors, since this is the case, I will help you once for the sake of my old friend."

"My elder brother is looking for you." Alan said, "It's best to leave this town early, and be careful... the evil ghost camp."

"If you are found by your brother's ghost camp, you will die."

"Death is death, and the old man won't live for a few days." The old beggar shook his head, and there was a faint glint in his cloudy eyes, "he just has to understand that what he owes will have to be paid back sooner or later."

Alan snorted softly.

"Then I'm afraid you won't see this day."

The two talked again, and then the puppet master named Alan left.

Xia Ge squatted in the grass and was not bitten by mosquitoes, but his legs were numb from squatting.

She doesn't know what's the point of squatting here and listening to a lot of things, but she knows that if she slips away halfway, she will be found...

The old beggar is gone!

A sudden pain in the head.

Xia Ge shuddered, and suddenly his whole body was icy cold.

She turned her head stiffly, and the old beggar fanned his fan, looked at her with squinted eyes, and smiled, "Have you got numb?"

Xia Ge: "...Haha, there's a little bit of it..."

The old beggar snorted, "Get up and go when you're numb."

Xia Ge: "..."

Will you keep your mouth shut?

Shouldn't the next sentence be "You know too much" and "The dead keep secrets"?

What kind of development is this...

She was a little scared.

Xia Ge anxiously followed the old beggar for a while.

The old beggar stopped, turned around, and suddenly said, "...Xiaoge?"

Xia Ge felt goosebumps all over his body again, "Ha, I'm here."

After a pause, he said very positively: "I won't say a word!"

Before getting along with the old beggar, Xia Ge always felt that he was a lazy, casual, but dignified old man.

He is kind to people, knows a lot, and integrates some poor homeless people together. Because of this old man's "seeing a share", few beggars in this town have starved to death, and everyone respects him he.

He likes to call people by nicknames, Ye Ze calls her Xiao Ze'er, and after knowing her name, he calls her Xiao Ge'er.

I used to listen to it casually and didn't think it was a big deal, but now I feel a sense of danger of being silenced no matter what I listen to.

The old man glanced at her and turned his head, "I mean, it doesn't matter if you say what you just heard."

Xia Ge: "...Huh?"

Can he talk casually about saving the puppet master?

His voice was very slow, "I can tell you more things."

Xia Ge was taken aback, and quickly shook his head like a rattle, "Oh, no, no, no..."

The more you know, the faster you die.

She just needs to be a happy little beggar who doesn't understand anything.

"But the old man wants to say."

You want to say that I don't want to hear it.

Xia Ge slandered.

The old man let out a long sigh: "The old man will not live for a few days..."

Quite suspected of selling miserably.

Xia Ge: "..."

"It's fine if you don't want to hear it."

Sorry she really didn't want to hear it.

"Be careful of things with the fangs logo these days." The old man sighed, "Run as soon as you see it."

"……Oh."

==

And from the "brother" incident that night.Ye Ze began to avoid Xia Ge, and occasionally the two met on the street, Ye Ze would not give her any good looks.

Xia Ge, who was lucky enough to survive from the kind old beggar, felt that Ye Ze's little awkwardness was quite indifferent.

People who have experienced life and death can always look down on everything.

Thinking of this, Xia Ge actually felt a little complacent.

I don't know where she got the cheek to compare her mood with a nine-year-old child.

Occasionally, Xia Ge saw Ye Ze, and was surprised to find that the young master, who always had a straight face begging for food, had become enlightened.When begging for things before, he had a gloomy face, as if someone owed him money, but now he knows how to smile.

He is also a very sunny boy when he smiles.

She also found that Ye Ze hadn't begged for food in the past few days, but instead often begged for some copper coins.

One or two, and I don't know what to ask for.

It is treasured and put in a black purse.

It's just unfortunate that when that bright smiling face met her, it immediately became cloudy, gloomy as if Xia Ge owed him a lot of money.

It went like this for about ten days.

When going out that day, Ye Ze left earlier than her, and she was stopped by the old beggar.

The old beggar flapped his cattail fan and lazily said, "Xiao Ge, what's going on with you and Xiao Ze'er recently?"

Hey, has the relationship between the two of them broken down to the point where the old beggar can see it?

After the shadow of that night, now Xia Ge gets goosebumps when she hears the old beggar calling her Xiaoge.

Xia Ge immediately put on a sad look, "Brother Ze doesn't want to play with me."

The old beggar looked at her steadily.

Xia Ge couldn't pretend anymore, but she still tried her best to look sad.

It's good to play a full set of plays.

The old man sighed softly at last.

"Song."

Xia Ge: "...um."

"People are different."

The old man fanned his fan, thinking of Ye Ze's smile that people said these days.

What a proud kid that was.

His gaze gradually became distant, "Some people are like millstones, you have to push them and tell them clearly what you want in order to get what you want."

Xia Ge said, "I don't want anything."

The old man smiled and said, "So some people are different."

Xia Ge looked at him.

"There are some people who like to be silent when they talk and do things. These people claim to be smart, and they are very proud on the surface. When they do things for you in silence, you can't point out—" The old man paused, sighed softly, "But you must know what he did for you."

Xia Ge's heart moved slightly.

Looking at the old man again, he has already closed his eyes, fanned himself, and said nothing.

——Xia Wuyin, do you know your birthday?

……

——So... don't be unhappy.

——Could you...call me, brother.

Xia Ge came out of the ruined temple, not knowing why, but what he thought of was the smile on Ye Ze's face when he ran into Ye Ze on the side of the road, and the copper coins he begged for.

——You must know what he did for you.

When Ye Ze used to beg, he never smiled.

At least the Ye Ze she met had never smiled flatteringly at anyone.

I would rather gnaw dry steamed buns every day than give up my last bit of pride.

But recently, he has been laughing.

……why?

For those copper plates?

Xia Ge suddenly didn't really want to think about it.

She took a few steps and suddenly asked the system.

"... What's the date today?"

The invincible puppet who tried hard to have a good relationship with the host but failed every time: "... April 28th."

She said her birthday was May [-]st.

It seems to be getting closer and closer to the truth.

"...Others treat me well." Xia Ge said to himself, "I'm going to accept it?"

The system interrupted solemnly: "Yes, when you accept it, you'd better think about something in return, such as becoming a super powerful puppeteer."

Xia Ge: "Shut up."

==

Ye Ze finally saved enough money.

He ran to the clothing store, intending to make a suit of clothes for the dry brat as a gift.

He found out a few days ago that the kid bought himself a pair of shoes.

In fact, he also knew that it was a bit strange for someone to call him elder brother for no reason, but when Xia Wuyin laughed like that, he just felt very angry.

Angry.

Ye Ze then thought of his unborn younger brother, or maybe his younger sister.

No more.

nothing left.

But...he wanted to.

Lost things can't come back, so he wants to get them back bit by bit by himself.

He stood at the entrance of the clothing store, looking at the tall plaque. For some reason, he obviously wanted to see the plaque, but the first thing he saw was a pitch-black fang attached to a pillar on one side.

The ferocious fangs glowed with ghostly aura.

Eye-catching, but also inexplicably gloomy.

Why do clothing stores post such weird things.

Ye Ze didn't think too much, he withdrew his thoughts and walked in.

The shop was sparsely populated, and the shop owner seemed a little strange, but Ye Ze didn't care too much, picked out a ready-to-wear, and planned to try it on.

He's a head taller than that kid... Just buy a slightly smaller one.

Into the fitting room.

He heard some strange, low-pitched voices that seemed to be coming from the compartment.

Those voices were a little eerie.

Ye Ze didn't pay much attention, he just thought it was the neighbor who was changing clothes.

But the more I listened, the more strange it became.

His movements are a little stiff.

"The Glory of the Sky from the Ye family..."

"..."

"The matter of exterminating the Ye family... our evil ghost battalion also participated..."

"Shh... that deal is over, now, it's a good start..."

"..."

The clothes in Ye Ze's hand slipped silently to the ground.

Not because of what you heard.

It's because, in the fitting room, slowly, slowly, countless ghost heads with ferocious fangs appeared!

"Here comes a...interesting child..."
