Broken mountains and rivers: Sushou restores the universe

Chapter 294
Time passed in silence for a long time, only to hear bursts of ethereal and clear birdsong above the head, clear and pleasant, which presented a strong contrast with the sharp and panicked calls in the cage.

"Miss Xiao?" Zhao Wu waited for a long time but did not see Xiao Muying's response, so he couldn't help calling her in doubt.

Hearing this, Xiao Muying raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Wu, then she hesitated and stretched out her hand forward, as if she wanted to catch the birdcage in Zhao Wu's hand.

Shen Muyu looked at the hesitant and struggling expression on Xiao Muying's face, then looked at her hesitating hand stretched forward, the corners of her lips curled slightly, revealing a slight smile.

Just when Xiao Muying's hand was about to touch the birdcage in Zhao Wu's hand, she suddenly stopped, making the onlookers even more confused.

Xiao Muying looked at the bird flying up and down in the cage with complicated eyes. At this moment, she seemed to see through the bird many years ago, the little girl who was trapped in the deep palace and yearned for the outside world. .

After a while, Xiao Muying quickly withdrew her hand and said, "I don't want this bird anymore."

There was a trace of a clear smile in Shen Muyu's eyes, but he asked aloud: "Why, didn't the girl come all the way here just for the Huofengniao? Why did you catch it now, but don't want it?"

Xiao Muying turned her head to look at Shen Muyu, with an indifferent expression on her small face, and said: "If you give me this bird, I will not take it back, but will release it immediately and let it return to freedom If you do that, I really feel sorry for the young master. After all, the young master condescends to come here in person and has gone through a dangerous situation. Even if it is to repay the young master for saving his life, I would like to give up this bird. Young master, it's just that Big Brother Zhao doesn't have to come back tomorrow, I don't want Huofengniao anymore."

Shen Muyu frowned slightly, and said with a light smile, "I heard that the girl gave away many precious birds in order to get close to that nobleman. Why do you feel sorry for such a fire phoenix today?"

Xiao Muying looked at the fire phoenix in the cage with pity, and sighed secretly in her heart, feeling ashamed that she couldn't let it go regardless of Shen Muyu's love to save her life.

She shook her head and said in a low voice: "The birds I sent out are different from this phoenix bird. Those birds were born to live in cages and have long been used to living in cages. But this phoenix bird was born free , it would be too unfair to forcibly imprison its freedom and give it away as a gift."

Saying this, she turned her head to look at Zhao Wu again, and said, "Brother Zhao, don't worry, I will still give you a fire phoenix coin after I go out. I will wait in front, and when you pack up, we will leave the forest go."

After Xiao Muying said this, she didn't say any more, she really couldn't bear to look at the poor fire phoenix bird in the cage, so she turned around and walked in a random direction.

It's just that after she had walked a few steps, she suddenly heard a clear and clear cry from behind, followed by the sound of wings flapping to a high place.

Xiao Muying was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stopped and turned around to look, only to see Shen Muyu holding an empty birdcage in his arms, looking up and smiling at a fiery red bird flying into the sky.

Looking from Xiao Muying's direction, what I saw was Shen Muyu's silhouette. After a chaotic and fierce battle, his white clothes were still stained with wrinkles and dust, and the upper body was firmly tied. The blood-stained sackcloth made his usual appearance of a banished fairy a bit more vulgar.

There was a slight smile on his pretty side face, and when he raised his head, he elongated his slender and graceful neck, with elegant and smooth lines.

This moment, this glance, this beautiful picture was deeply reflected in Xiao Muying's eyes and heart, and she will never forget it.
