As she approached, the courtyard was bustling with people coming and going, filled with a cacophony of sounds. The aroma of food mixed with the fragrance of wine wafted through the air. As Wei Luo drew near, her stomach growled happily, and she hastened her pace by several steps to arrive at the stone courtyard entrance, stepping inside amidst the commotion.
Wei Luo stepped into this stone-built house, which was as big as a football field, and her eyes were immediately dazzled.
What a beautiful young man!
In the room, twelve or thirteen bonfires were lit, with about ten people gathered around each one. Near the door of the house, five or six bonfires had only young men, beautiful young men.
These handsome young men were all around twelve to sixteen years old, uniformly dressed in deep clothing made of brocade, each with a clear and white complexion.
They were all a bit thin, of course, in this era where material was not rich, and few people had plump figures. A group of boys with similar builds and dressed alike sitting together was truly dazzling to the eyes.
These should be the young boys in the motorcade who were used as gifts.
Every single person here is a rare find, every young man in the original world of Wei Luo would be the kind of boy that girls like and fawn over. Their pale and handsome faces still held a hint of innocence, and as they looked at Wei Luo, their eyes were filled with curiosity.
But they were just gifts.
Wei Luo silently sighed and closed her eyes, which had been dazzled. When she opened them again to look back, she met a pair of eyes staring at her.
Cheng Ye sat steadily on his knees on the couch, holding a wine ladle, and those exceptionally bright eyes were staring at her without blinking.
After looking into Cheng Xue's eyes, Wei Luo's heart that was still fiercely pounding suddenly calmed down.
She lowered her head and walked backwards along one side of the stone wall, bypassing the bonfire of the handsome young men, and came to the bonfire of the swordsmen.
As Wei Luo approached, she could feel Cheng Yu's scorching gaze on her without even looking up, and the snickering sounds of his companions also reached her ears.
Among these bonfires, the hemp-clothed swordsmen, the barefoot hemp-clothed swordsmen, and the brocade-clothed swordsmen each occupied two bonfires. Among the brocade-clothed swordsmen, Cheng Yi and Gao Zhan were stationed beside one of the bonfires respectively.
As Wei Luo approached, the snickering grew louder. Amidst these snickers, Cheng Yi let out a loud hum and suddenly stretched out his hand to beckon Wei Luo, shouting: "Young one, come here for now!"
He said this, his dark and thin face smiled with joy, only to see him slap his own thigh and exclaimed: "This cushion is warm and comfortable, come try it."
Hahaha.
The numerous swordsmen around the bonfire all burst out laughing at the same time.
Wei Luo, this is really called suffering one after another.
She thought she had joined the horse-drawn carriage team and could have dinner here, but after looking around for a long time, she didn't see anyone in charge. Had she gone to the wrong place? Oh my god, there were only a few people in charge of the horse-drawn carriage team, they wouldn't set up another kitchen, would they?
Due to Cheng Xi's shout, the people in the grand hall all curiously looked at her. Wei Luo was very careful and glanced around, meeting the gaze of many people who were sizing her up.
She felt herself in a dilemma.
Gao Yi sat quietly on the kang, quietly drinking wine, a large piece of mutton on his stove emitting a bright yellow light, and a square wine container that could hold one kilogram of wine emitting a blue light.
He didn't lift his head.
Cheng Yi saw Wei Luo hesitate, and couldn't help but smile, his snow-white teeth gleaming. He stood up from the couch and walked towards Wei Luo with large strides.
Wei Luo saw him approaching and had intended to remain calm and composed, but for some reason, her small face flushed bright red, her mind went completely blank, and she was at a loss as to what to do with her hands and feet.
Cheng Yi couldn't help but laugh even harder at her appearance. At this time, a strange cry came from the fire pit behind him, "Cheng Yi, this little one is standing quietly, with a red face and neck, blushing and answering, quite touching, no wonder you young man's heart was moved."
Cheng Yixiao burst out laughing and happily replied, "You still know me best. Alas, you don't understand, this kid is as fierce as a beast when he's being stubborn, but as shy as a young lady when he's embarrassed. When I get him, I'll have to pamper him well, humph, by then you'll all be green with envy!"
"Haha haha haha..."
About ten people shouted and yelled at the same time.
Weiluo was enraged, and in her rage, she became more agile. Seeing Chengyi walking towards her with large strides, reaching out to grab her arm, Weiluo suddenly shrunk back, like a rabbit darting away, quickly rushing towards the door, that fleeting figure was surprisingly swift and decisive!
At this point, even those beautiful boys burst out laughing.
Cheng Yi was about to grab it but missed, and the object slipped out of her hands. She was initially a bit annoyed, but seeing everyone else laughing and teasing, she also burst into laughter with her arms akimbo.
Wei Luo hadn't rushed to the door yet when suddenly, a heavy and powerful footsteps sound came. At the same time, a sharp whistle-like voice came from outside the door, "Is the young master here?"
That sharp whistle was not loud, but mixed with the laughter, it could be clearly heard. The swordsmen were all masters, and as soon as they heard it, they knew that the newcomer was extraordinary. The laughter stopped abruptly.
The boys were also quiet for a moment.
The heavy footsteps stopped at the door. Then, that shrill voice came out again, "Boy, come out quickly!"
The young men looked at each other in dismay, hesitating and uncertain. Just then, Lou Ju's laughter came from outside, "Master has given an order, what are you still hesitating for? Get out, all of you!"
The young people received the command of Lou Ju and put down their bowls and chopsticks one by one, lowered their heads and walked out in a line.
As for Wei Luo, she had already quietly retreated a few steps back when the footsteps were approaching, shrinking into the corner of the stone wall. From the sound of the footsteps outside, it was clear that there were many people coming, and most of them were not ordinary people. If she rashly ran out and collided with someone, she would only have one dead end. Now the only thing she could do was to quietly stay in the corner like this.
She didn't notice that behind her back, Cheng Xi and Gao Yi were both watching her, and when they saw her stop in her tracks, the two of them simultaneously let out a sigh of relief.
The boys walked out one by one, and before long, there was no one left, only the fire burning alone.
After the young men left, the swordsmen continued to eat and drink as usual, but they ate in silence, with no more laughter or noise coming from them.
Wei Luo had been starving for a long time. It could be said that since she arrived in this place, she had always been in a state of hunger. Although she forced herself to eat every meal, the food was really too terrible, and her body naturally resisted absorption. In the past two days, she had already shown signs of dizziness, and no matter how much she forced herself to eat, it couldn't alleviate this symptom. Only the golden wine and meat in front of her could make her recover normally.
She turned her head and took another glance at the remaining food of the young men, suddenly smiled and thought: being able to have a full meal without causing trouble is a rare good thing, what do I have to hesitate about?
She thought of this, her body bent, and turned to walk towards the crowd of swordsmen.
Cheng Ye Zheng was lowering his head to drink, when he was suddenly elbowed by the person beside him. He involuntarily lifted his head and saw Wei Luo walking towards him. At that moment, he smiled, revealing a row of pearly whites, and gazed at her with sparkling eyes.
It's not just him, many swordsmen don't understand why Wei Luo has come back again, and they're all staring at her.
Wei Luo walked all the way to the bonfire that belonged to the group of young men, closest to the swordsmen, and knelt down near the stone wall. Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, she reached out and tore a piece of mutton from the skewer.
Until Wei Luo's elegant and refined movements slowly brought the mutton to her mouth, the swordsmen finally came back to their senses. With a "heh" sound, another wave of low laughter spread out.
This time, everyone's gaze at her was full of smiles: This little guy, he must have known that there were people outside and didn't dare to make a move.
"With a smile, showing his snow-white teeth, he said to the people beside him: 'When children are young and timid, they are as lovable as mice; when they grow bold, they become as hateful as tigers. I want to let go, but in fact, it's hard for me to bear the heartache.'"
Wei Luo's movements were elegant, though slow in reality they were quick. Before long, she had eaten her fill.
Just as she was enjoying her meal, a shrill voice came from outside, "The swordsmen in the hall also come out to pay their respects."
As soon as the shout was heard, the swordsmen looked at each other and slowly put down their bowls and chopsticks. Sure enough, Lou Ju's shout came again, "Everyone come out."
