Cheng Yu was afraid for a while after hearing this.

I thought I entered the kitchen without anyone noticing, but it turned out that someone had already spotted me secretly.

Thinking back on it now, every time I entered the kitchen, there would always be some broken and finely chopped steamed buns of different sizes in the rattan basket.

I thought it was a coincidence and never noticed it, but now it seems that this girl did it on purpose.

There seems to be no hostility.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yu became slightly less defensive about the girl.

"What's wrong? The white flour steamed buns don't taste good to you, so you came here to steal some meat?

The meat here is not something you can eat casually. It is an annual contribution to the high officials. If something goes wrong, not only me, but also the master will be affected."

After the girl finished speaking in a low voice, she turned around and looked outside the house warily. Just as she was about to continue speaking, the woman from outside called Zhuangtou:

"Xianlian, come and wash clothes with me quickly. The sun is getting low, so it's time to make food after washing."

The smile on the girl's face suddenly froze, and her smart eyes were covered with a layer of gray.

"Hey, I know, here I go."

The girl named Xiang Lian hurriedly turned around to answer, then lowered her voice very low and said to Cheng Yu:

"Fly away quickly. If there's something fishy in your dinner, I'll secretly leave some for you, but don't ever break in here again."

Cheng Yu suddenly felt inexplicably grateful, nodded subconsciously, turned around a few times and jumped onto the window pane, lowered his body and got out, then looked back and saw that Xiang Lian was still stunned in place, staring up at herself outside the window.

After Cheng Yu chirped in thanks, he spread his wings and flew towards the bird's nest.

The girl was left alone in the room muttering:

"He nodded? He nodded..."

"Xianlian! Why has it been so long? But something went wrong in Sui La?"

Outside the house, the wife of the village head shouted and walked towards this side.

"Ah? No, no, I just checked carefully, everything is fine."

Xiang Lian hurriedly moved the piece of bacon that Cheng Yu had pecked to an inconspicuous place inside, then walked out of the house, stepped over the guard dog's head, took the wooden basin in the hands of the Zhuangtou woman, and said:

"Mom, the key to the water room."

Madam Zhuangtou took out a copper key from her arms and led Xiang Lian towards the water house.

……

The sun is heading west, and plumes of smoke are drifting from the kitchen of Zhuangtou's house.

As expected, his family eats meat today.

The smoke is mixed with the pleasant smell of meat and oil.

After the whole family had finished their dinner, Xiang Lian packed everything up, deliberately opened the kitchen window a small crack, then turned around and left.

Cheng Yu was on the roof with a panoramic view of everything under his feet. After waiting for a while, when the surroundings gradually became quiet, he quietly flew into the kitchen and landed on the rattan basket.

Taking advantage of the setting sun, I saw a few pieces of minced meat cooked in white water sprinkled inside.

To a human, it's just minced meat, but to a sparrow with a small body, it's like meatballs.

Cheng Yu almost took one bite, and he didn't forget to replenish carbohydrates at the same time. He ate happily in a short time.

"Squeak!"

The kitchen door pivot sounded, and a weak figure flashed in.

Cheng Yu quietly flew to the beam of the room. Beneath his feet, Xianglian crept in. He took off the rattan basket and took a closer look. The meat foam deliberately placed inside was gone. A bright smile appeared on the girl's face, no longer the same as before.

Dull look.

The girl raised her head and looked around, and finally saw the little sparrow on the beam. Her eyes were shining with joy and she asked in a low voice:

"Hehe, is it delicious? Is it enough to eat?"

"..."

"Don't you understand? Why are you nodding to me in the daytime?"

"…………"

I was careless at the time...

The little sparrow always stared at the girl at its feet without saying a word.

"Okay, maybe I saw it wrong. Then I'll leave the window open for you so you can go out."

The girl opened the window and saw that the sparrow on the beam remained unmoved. She suddenly realized something, turned around and went out softly, walked quietly around the corner of the wall, and stretched out half of her little head.

Cheng Yu waited for the girl to go out for a while, then spread her wings and flew out of the kitchen.

I can't wait any longer. After the sunset, what I see in my eyes is getting blurry. If I wait any longer, I will have to spend the night in the kitchen.

Generally speaking, the kitchen is an area most infested with rats.

……

Several days passed, and Cheng Yu had eaten three meaty meals under the secret care of Xianglian. He felt extremely comfortable both physically and mentally, and he was grateful to Xianglian.

On weekdays, he pays more attention to this girl. Although she works as a servant in this house, her three meals a day are much better than most families in the village.

Apart from instructing her to do various tasks, the Zhuangtou family did not treat her too harshly.

This girl is not pedantic either. When she is washing the pot and making rice, she will occasionally pick up the meat and eat it secretly. She just needs to pay attention to avoid the village lady.

Cheng Yu would also fly to the woods outside the village from time to time to look for some sweet and sour wild fruits, and pick them up one by one into the rattan basket in the kitchen.

When she saw the wild fruits in the basket for the first time, Xiang Lian exclaimed in surprise. After all, she was a girl in her early teens.

Out of childish nature, I almost accidentally shared this with the Zhuangtou family several times.

But in the end, she swallowed her words because she was working as a servant and was cautious and tolerant.

She didn't want to put her only playmate in her heavy life into an unpredictable situation just because of her garrulous words.

Even though Cheng Yu had never been close to her, he always kept a safe enough distance.

And checking the eating results of the sparrows in the rattan basket in the kitchen every day, and the small surprises that appear from time to time, are enough to infiltrate her innocent nature, which has become increasingly dry.

Cheng Yu, who had supplemented protein, brought his home-like nature to the extreme in his previous life. When he woke up every morning, he would go back to his cage and only leave the nest at noon.

It's the same today. The sun is three poles high, and there is a wide place where the village and the fields meet.

The sky is blue and white, the sky is high and the air is crisp, and the air is full of sweet smell.

A dirt road stretched forward under Cheng Yu's feet, with courtyards and thatched roofs growing out like branches and leaves on both sides.

Figures of people working in the meantime were dotted among them, and they all swept back quickly one by one.

The God's perspective feels good, and Cheng Yu's mood is much better now than in the past few days.

Nothing more, just habit.

Continue to fly forward, and soon you will fly to the edge of the village, and wheat fields begin to appear.

The dirt road continues forward, passing through pieces of harvested farmland like a small river, and finally merges into a spacious official road.

"Whoosh"

A gray shadow passed over the surface of the earth, rising into the sky like an onion from dry land. Cheng Yu closed his eyes tightly and flew with all his strength in the direction of the sun.

After rushing to the extreme peak, retract the wings completely, tense up the whole body, and fall freely, gradually accelerating by gravity.

Speed ​​up!

Speed ​​up!

Go for it!

The pointed beak broke the airflow below, and the whooshing wind was left behind him.

Hei Tantou looked frightened on the ground.

I saw a gray meteor swooping down vertically from the sky. When it was almost close to the ground, Cheng Yu suddenly opened his eyes, flapped his wings and pulled up.

"Whoosh"

With the sound of whistling wind, he drew a nearly vertical arc, and rushed forward for a certain distance. It was not until he was almost flying out of the village that he pulled up again and rushed towards the sun again.

Repeat this over and over again and never get tired of it.

Ouch!

He enjoys the excitement of flying freely, and it is the best way for him to forget all his worries since time travel.

This set of actions is no different from seeking death in the eyes of other sparrows, but as long as the sparrows are shocked by this visual impact at the scene, they will never forget this scene in their lifetime.

Hei Tantou himself had tried secretly before, but he always instinctively opened his eyes as soon as he fell. He didn't even dare to retract his wings like Cheng Yu and dive towards the ground at an almost vertical angle.

This is obviously suicide.
