[Red Mansion] A little chef came to the Grand View Garden

When Liu Mei saw Baoyu, she had mixed emotions in her heart, and she really didn't know what to say, but Baoyu greeted Liu Mei with a smile on her face, "Mei'er, thank you for coming to see me off."

He came to Liu Mei and looked down at Liu Mei with joy in his eyes.

"Mei'er..." Baoyu hesitated to speak, and saw that Baochai had retreated to the side wiping her tears. Finally, she made up her mind and asked Liu Mei in a low voice, "Have you ever dreamed about... Sister Lin?"

Liu Mei was startled, she didn't expect that when Baoyu parted with everyone, this was what she couldn't forget.

She nodded, raised her face to look at Baoyu, and said in a low voice, "I just 'dream'ed about it before, and she...is fine."

When Baoyu heard this, he couldn't help but brows with joy, but tears almost fell from his eyes again.The fool actually stretched out his hands, supported Liu Mei's shoulders, and cried softly: "This... is great."

To be honest, Baoyu's move is quite eye-catching.Liu Mei didn't care too much, she knew Baoyu well, in this world, she and Baoyu could be regarded as people who shared the same secret.

Shiqing next to her, for some reason, snorted lowly, stepped forward, and came to Liu Mei's side, looking at Baoyu with a little hostility in his eyes.

Only then did Baoyu realize his forgetfulness.He quickly let go of Liu Mei, took a step back, and bowed solemnly to Shiqing.

"I have seen His Royal Highness—"

Seeing that Baoyu had returned to normal, Shiqing cleared his throat, returned the salute, and said, "Baoyu doesn't need to be too polite. I haven't thanked you in person for your help that day. The journey to Tianzhu Mountain is very difficult and dangerous. I also hope that your honor will take care of you."

When Liu Mei heard Shiqing mention Tianzhu Mountain, she thought about it, and suddenly said: "Baoyu, actually you don't have to do this, you don't have to go to Tianzhu Mountain."

Hearing her say this, Baoyu thought she was talking childishly, so he straightened up, looked at Liu Mei and smiled: "If you don't go to Tianzhu Mountain, Empress Wa won't mend the sky so quickly. The people in the world will inevitably suffer for a few more days." .”

Liu Mei said: "Perhaps...the sky can make up for itself."

Shi Qing was beside him, when he heard Liu Mei say this, his eyes lit up immediately, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it for a moment, he just opened his left arm and hugged Liu Mei to his side.

Baoyu looked at Liu Mei and Shiqing suspiciously. He originally had Su Hui, but when he saw him at this moment, he slowly understood.

"Mei'er," Baoyu looked at Liu Mei with a smile, and said softly, "Mei'er, you were right when you scolded me..."

Liu Mei was startled: When did I scold you?

"As you said, when did you see Second Master Bao's temperament, when did he really take responsibility? When things are imminent, it's just a word 'to hide'." Baoyu saw Liu Mei embarrassed in front of her eyes, with a small face Soaring red.

Back then, Liu Mei scolded Baoyu in front of Qingwen, who was sick and weak, and wanted to wake Qingwen up. Unexpectedly, Baoyu kept these words firmly in her heart.

"So, this time, I don't want to hide anymore. I should face it myself, and I will eventually face it."

Liu Mei was moved by Baoyu's sincerity, and her eyes began to sore again.

"I know I'm a useless person, and I have a rare chance to be useful." Baoyu looked at Liu Mei, and the smile on his lips became more and more comfortable. "And if it comes in handy, people in this world may remember it in the future." , there used to be a stubborn stone that was too useless for its useless material, after several lives and calamities, it finally came in handy..."

"Second Master Bao!"

Baoyu was talking emotionally when he was suddenly interrupted by a clear and moving female voice.

Liu Mei turned her face away, and saw that it was Liu Wu'er who came.I saw that she had already changed into an attire suitable for walking long distances, and she also wore thick-soled cloth shoes on her feet. The trousers under her skirt were tied with cotton rope, and she was carrying a bag and a bundle in her hand.

"Second Master, it's getting late, let's go!"

Liu Wu'er went straight forward and reached out to support Baoyu.

Seeing this, Baoyu was also quite surprised, and said in amazement, "Wu'er, you..."

Liu Wu'er lifted the bag in his hand and said, "I even brought your favorite road dishes for the second master."

Liu Mei was startled, took two steps forward, and reached out to grab Liu Wu'er, "Wu'er, do you want to accompany Second Master Bao to go south? Have you discussed with your parents about your behavior?"

She herself is destined to leave, and there is only Wu'er and a daughter left under her parents' knees. If Liu Wu'er and Baoyu go south to Tianzhu Mountain together, if something goes wrong, her parents will have no one to rely on in the future, what will happen? manage.

Liu Wu'er glanced at Liu Mei, looked at her changed attire and hairstyle, couldn't help laughing and said: "Mei'er, I've heard what my parents said, but I want to congratulate you for getting what you want, come on." Good son-in-law."

"However, you are only allowed to marry Ruyi Langjun, and I am not allowed to act according to my own will?" After speaking, Liu Wu'er lowered her voice, "My body deed is in my own hands, I chose it myself The road is not controlled by others. If your parents ask in the future, you can tell me this for me!"

Liu Mei hurriedly pulled Wu'er's arm, "Wu'er, there are many things you don't know..."

Liu Wu'er also laughed and said, "So we are really sisters, and there are many things that you don't know either!"

At this moment, the sage sent over, and the guards who "escorted" Baoyu had already urged there.

Liu Wu'er shook off Liu Mei's hand, rushed over to Baoyu in three steps and two steps, raised her face, and said something to Baoyu.

Liu Mei vaguely heard her say to Baoyu, "I will always be with you."Baoyu also turned her head, stared at Wu'er for a few times, was quite moved, finally nodded, and allowed Wu'er to stay by her side.Wu'er was full of joy, and stretched out her hand to hold Baoyu's arm, as if she had been trusted for life, and Baochai Xiren was no match for her.

Liu Mei immediately recalled her dream, her heart ached, but she slowed down and did not try to stop Wu'er.

Baoyu got into the car, escorted by his personal guards, and left along the official road heading south.

The relatives and friends of Jia's mansion who saw Baoyu and his party off outside the south gate of the capital finally stopped their grief and dispersed to go home.

Liu Mei was perplexed, she didn't know how to explain Wuer's matter to Liu's father and Liu mother, and she didn't know how to say goodbye to her parents, her heart was in a mess for a moment, mixed with other emotions.

Shi Qing, who had been standing by the side, silently, suddenly twisted Liu Mei's arm, and said, "Let's go, and send Baoyu and the others off."

Liu Mei: Hasn't this already been delivered?

She froze suddenly, seeing the seriousness of this man's expression, she nodded quickly.

As a prince, Shiqing ordered the horses to be mobilized outside the south gate of the capital, and immediately someone brought an extremely handsome horse and brought it to him.Shiqing got on the horse immediately, stretched out his hand, brought Liu Mei onto the horse, and hugged him to his chest.

The two rode together and rode quickly on the official road, and soon caught up with Baoyu's convoy.

The itinerary to go south to Tianzhu Mountain is very tense, Baoyu and others should have been on the road day and night, but now the convoy has also stopped, blocked in the middle of the official road, and will not move forward.

There was an ominous premonition in Liu Mei's heart for no reason, to be precise, it was fear.

She trembled inexplicably, feeling cold from the bottom of her heart.

The steed under Shiqing's seat also seemed to move and slowed down.Shiqing lifted the reins and hit the horse forward. The two rode together, passed the long motorcade, and came to the car where Baoyu was.

At this point, Liu Mei finally understood the reason why the car stopped.

In the distance, in the middle of the official road, there is a man riding a horse, slowly coming towards this side.

The horse is a steed, with a black body and a long and healthy body; the person is wrapped in a black cloak from head to toe, and the hood covers the face, making it difficult to see clearly.

However, as this person walked slowly, the pressure on the people here became heavier and heavier, and the fear in their hearts became more and more intense.

Liu Mei was dumbfounded, looked up at Shiqing, and saw that he had a serious expression on his face, staring closely at the visitor, as if he was fully on guard.

The royal guards who escorted Baoyu here also asked: "Who is here? This is an important person who is going south on business under the imperial order. If you are irrelevant, get out of the way quickly, and don't block the way."

The other party didn't answer at all, and only listened to the sound of hoofbeats. The man and the horse seemed to be coming slowly in a leisurely manner.But Liu Mei felt inexplicably afraid, the sweat in her palms seemed to roll off.

"Who the hell is it? Don't you even pay attention to the special envoy sent by the saint?"

The leading personal guard yelled again, and after speaking, his voice trembled slightly.

Almost at the same time, the opponent suddenly drove the steed under his seat, the black horse Shenjun, holding an ancient heavy sword in his hand, and rushed towards the convoy quickly.

"Everyone on alert—" the leading guard shouted loudly.The guards under him drew out their weapons one after another.

And Liu Mei's heart seemed to be in her throat, and she stared intently at the man wrapped in a black cloak - even though the man was getting closer and closer, she still couldn't see the man's description clearly until the distance was only a few meters away. At that moment, until under the hood of the black cloak, about the position of the comer's eyes, a dazzling red light shot out.

"This is not human at all!" Liu Mei exclaimed.

When the personal guards heard Liu Mei's shout, their hearts trembled.

The coming person has no human form at all. If it weren't for the cloak he was wearing, the world would not be able to see the coming person's form. This guy is almost invisible to the eyes of ordinary people in the world.

As soon as it was said, the man in black who was rushing forward suddenly opened his mouth and howled loudly—that tragic cry was the sound of death, and those who heard it trembled, as if they saw the abyss.

Liu Mei was almost out of her wits, Shi Qing covered her ears with all her strength, turned her horse's head aside.

As soon as that person rode, he rushed into the horse team escorting Baoyu.

The leader of the personal guard who bore the brunt was instantly sent flying, and fell to the feet of Shiqing's mount.

Liu Mei saw that his eyes were white, he was waving his arms desperately, trembling all over, foaming at the mouth, he seemed to be struggling between a desperate nightmare and a terrifying phantom.But the leader of the personal guards was already considered lucky. The personal guards behind him were either decapitated, or their limbs were bleeding, and they wailed loudly.

Baoyu and Liu Wu'er also poked their heads out of the car at this time, and they were dumbfounded when they saw the situation in front of them.Especially Liu Wu'er—she thought that going to Tianzhu Mountain for this was just a long trip, the journey might be difficult and dangerous, but she wouldn't be in danger of her life.Seeing the dire situation in front of her, Liu Wu'er's legs went limp, and she sat slumped on the car floor, so frightened that she couldn't even speak.

The moment Baoyu appeared, the man in black had already passed the car where Baoyu was, but he seemed to realize something suddenly, and immediately turned the horse's head and urged the horse towards Baoyu's direction.

Liu Mei watched from a distance, and suddenly said in a low voice: "It's the Ring Spirit, it's the Ring Spirit..."

Is this... Really, another world has invaded? !There is even a passage from Middle-earth to this world.

But why do ring spirits appear in this world?Shouldn't the Ring Spirits be there to snatch the Supreme Lord of the Rings?

She thought about it for a while, and immediately realized that she said loudly: "Baoyu, Baoyu, run...he is coming for you."

The beautiful jade worn on Baoyu's chest is also a sacred object with a history. A stone among stones, isn't this the same as the ring of rings known as the "Supreme Lord of the Rings"?

So the ring spirit mistook Baoyu's precious jade for the Lord of the Rings, and came to rob and kill it?

Hearing Liu Mei's shout, Baoyu immediately pushed Liu Wu'er into the carriage, jumped down from the carriage, turned around and ran.

As expected, the ring spirit came for Baoyu, so he easily let Liu Wuer go, turned his horse's head instead, and followed Baoyu closely.

Baoyu ran as hard as he could, but he couldn't run faster than the steed under the seat of Ringling.Seeing that Baoyu was about to be overtaken, he couldn't help reaching out and grasping the psychic gem tied on the five-color silk sash on his chest, and rolled on the ground, protecting Baoyu tightly in front of his chest.

The ring spirit was merciless, held up the iron sword, and slashed at Baoyu's Tianling cover.Baoyu was so desperate that she had to close her eyes and wait for death.

At this critical moment, there was only a "Zheng" sound, it was none other than Shiqing who made a move, drew his sword out of its sheath, and blocked Ringling's sword from below.

Ringling never expected that there would be someone in this world who could block his sword strike, so he shouted angrily, raised his heavy sword high, and wanted to strike Shiqing again.Baoyu also trembled when he heard the cry of the ring spirit like an undead, fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

Shiqing stared blankly, then suddenly swung the long sword in his hand, and then there was another clank.He only heard the hiss of pain from the mount under the Ring Spirit Seat, his legs were already stained, blood was flowing, and he started to run again, already limping.

Just now Shiqing followed the strategy of "shooting people first, shooting the horse" and cut the horse's legs first. If the ring spirit hadn't reacted and blocked it, this dark horse would have been useless.

At this time, Liu Mei endured her fear and desperately urged Shiqing's horse to arrive. Shiqing got on the horse and picked up Baoyu by the way to protect her behind her.Together, the three of them confronted the Ring Spirit.

Time passed little by little.

After an unknown amount of time, the Ring Spirit drove his mount, and slowly backed away. After retreating dozens of steps, he turned the horse's head and drove the lame horse away slowly.

Liu Mei let out a long sigh of relief, almost limp in Shiqing's embrace.

At this time, there was a crying sound in the car, "Second Master..."

It was Liu Wu'er who rushed over to see Baoyu's situation, and Baoyu came back to his senses, "Wu'er, are you okay? I'm fine, thanks to Mei'er and His Royal Highness..."

Only then did Liu Wu'er realize that the brocade-robed man who had been standing beside Liu Mei turned out to be a prince who could not be bought with money, she was stunned for a moment, and then cried again to see Baoyu's situation.

"Good Second Master, so many people have died in this guard, it's dangerous to go here, this Tianzhu Mountain... don't you want to go?"

Shiqing Liumei and others hurriedly went to see the situation of the accompanying guards.In just one face-to-face effort, more than half of the palace guards were killed or injured. Up to this moment, the leader of the guards was still lying on the ground and shivering coldly.Liu Mei deduced that this should be due to inhaling the breath exhaled by the ring spirit just now, and being poisoned by the dark breath.

With an idea, Baoyu took out the psychic jade from his chest and placed it between the mouth and nose of the head of the bodyguard. It took a quarter of an hour before the headman of the bodyguard gradually woke up.

"Second Lord Bao—someone in Beijing will deal with the dead and wounded here, and I'll call on those who can still move, and we'll go south immediately..."

The head of the personal guard had just recovered, so he went to check.He saw the heavy casualties of his subordinates, but he refused to give up his plan to go south, "This is a death order from the saint. Within 30 days, no matter what, I must protect you and rush to Tianzhu Mountain."

Liu Wu'er was listening, crying and begging: "Master, can you resist that ghost just now? It's gone for a while, but what if more people come later?"

Liu Mei heard it from the side, and hurriedly asked Shiqing: "Can you sense it? From the gap between Middle-earth and this world, how many ring spirits have come?"

"This is the only one at the moment, and I'm rushing back to the gap to meet the other eight people!" Shiqing concentrated for a moment, and then added, "The rest are on their way!"

Liu Mei rubbed his forehead, not knowing what to say.

Liu Wu'er heard it from a distance, and hurried to beg the leader of the bodyguard, "It's too dangerous. The monster left just now, and he was obviously going to rescue soldiers. Even if you continue to go south, can you keep our second master safe?" Is it Tianzhu Mountain?"

Liu Mei turned her head and asked Shiqing: "The rest of the ring spirits... well, how long will it take for the monsters to gather together?"

Shiqing replied, "It's only a day or two."

Liu Mei told Baoyu that Liu Wu'er cried and begged even more, and held Baoyu tightly, refusing to let him go forward.

Unexpectedly, the leader of the personal guards said to Baoyu: "Second Master Bao, I promise you - as long as any one of us is alive, I will protect you and go south unscathed. Even if all our brothers are We're all dead, and when we get to the prefectures and counties ahead, there will be someone to fill our gaps."

Baoyu was moved when he heard this, and he cupped his hands and said to the leader, "The grass people are such a low life, why do you want to be like men?"

Unexpectedly, the leader of the personal guards looked sad, lowered his voice, and said: "My hometown suffered the most severe disaster. It is said that the villagers have lost five or six stops within ten miles... If we wait any longer, how can we wait like this?" Many times?"

Tears welled up in his eyes, and he continued: "Furthermore, even if the capital is safe right now, who knows what will happen after a long delay? Some things must be done eventually."

When Baoyu heard him mentioning the capital city, he couldn't help but turned around and looked back, looking at the dark city in the distance under the continuous rain.Finally he turned his face, nodded to the head of the bodyguard, and said, "Brother Cha, please do it now! I'll wait and move as soon as possible."

As he spoke, he turned around and said to Liu Wu'er: "Wu'er, I am very grateful for your kindness, and I am also very happy to have you by my side. This journey is difficult and dangerous, and it is not something that a daughter of yours should go through. If you ...You just follow Meier back, forget about me from now on, and pretend that I have never existed in this world!"

Hearing this, Liu Wu'er cried more and more fiercely. He grabbed Baoyu's sleeve tightly and said, "Second Master, don't abandon me. Once I come out, I will follow you forever. From that day on, you will help me out." Since the matter of the rose dew, I have only left this path, no matter where you go, I will go this path to the dark..."

Wu'er cried miserably, and all the rest wept.

Baoyu frowned, and said, "But I went to Tianzhu Mountain, but it was, it was..."

After he left, he never thought that he would return to the world.

But Liu Wu'er stopped crying, stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, and went to pull Baoyu, "Anyway, wherever the second master is going, I will go." As he spoke, he supported Baoyu to return to the car, and then Followed by the rest of the guards.

Liu Mei watched and didn't speak.

She could believe that Liu Wu'er had some sincerity towards Baoyu, but this sincerity was based on her longing for the future life.Regardless of whether Liu Wu'er's starting point is for money or love, she always hopes to live a better life in the future than now.But she didn't know, she couldn't understand what Baoyu was thinking-that no talent can make up for the sky, and one day it will come in handy, but at the cost of sacrificing herself.

At this time, Liu Wu'er managed to cheer up, supported Baoyu, bypassed the dead and injured guards, and boarded the car again.

The leader of the personal guards turned around and cupped his hands to Shiqing, saying: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your help! The villains are going now. If the saint asks, your Highness, please return the saint for me. Send Bao Erye and his jade to Emperor Wa."

Shiqing just nodded, and solemnly handed him off, and then stepped aside with Liu Mei.

After a while, only the rumble of the ruts was heard, and the remaining guards escorted the car to restart and move forward.Liu Mei and Shi Qing just watched the group go away from the side of the road.

After walking for about a mile, I saw the car stopped again. A woman figure got out of the car, knelt down beside the road, and bowed to the car three times. Weeping mournfully.

Liu Mei knew that Baoyu had confessed the truth to Wuer, and Liu Wuer finally made her final decision.

——Liu Wuer gave up Baoyu.

Things like feelings don't necessarily have results if you stick to it.It was a wise move for Liu Wuer to choose this way.

It's just that this renunciation, after going on for many years, in heaven and earth, in all directions, I'm afraid they will never meet again.

Liu Mei secretly said in her heart: Sister Wu'er, it's your own choice, as long as you don't regret it.

She looked at the mess on the ground and the car driving away, and was dazed for a moment, then suddenly sighed: "Baoyu has enlightened."

From behind, Shiqing gently hugged Liu Mei, leaned against her ear and whispered: "Yes!"

Baoyu once owned, and once lost, and now he finally has nothing, so he is fearless, and can move forward alone in this world for the sake of the common people.

"If only I could be as brave as him!" Liu Mei sighed.

Shiqing hugged her even tighter, and whispered in her ear: "I hope you will never be as brave as him."
