Chapter 223 Plot
Mu Jinghua seemed to be touched, his eyes were half red: "But, why?"
"Uh." Qiao Wan was a little embarrassed and glanced at Xu Shu subconsciously, "Do I have to tell you?"
Xu Shu snorted: "Just tell me, are you still embarrassed?"
Qiao Wan glanced around, pulled Xuan Er to find a place to sit down, and called Mu Jinghua and Xu Shu, "This is a long story, sit down and listen slowly."
Xu Shu glanced at the sky which was beginning to darken and thought that he should not be so comfortable anymore.
But Mu Jinghua sat down and said, "You speak."
Xu Shu had no choice but to sit down with him.
Qiao Wan started the story from the beginning.
In fact, she is not a loyal reader of the book "Famous in Beijing", but the author of the book. According to Qiao Wan, Mu Jinghua is her favorite character.
"You seem to have your own vitality." Qiao Wan recalled, "Your original character biography was set like this..."
[Mu Jinghua, who had finally escaped from Yichun Tower, slept on the wild mountain for three whole days before he opened his eyes in a daze.
When I woke up, I felt a sharp pain in my ankle.
Mu Jinghua looked carefully for a long time before he found a small tooth hole. He must have been bitten by a snake, which is why he was unconscious for so long.
He struggled to stand up, feeling dizzy and having not eaten for three days. He saw the bamboo leaves nearby, so he plucked two and chewed them. They tasted bitter and astringent, so he spat them out immediately.
Looking up, he saw smoke rising from a kitchen not far away. Mu Jinghua's eyes lit up and he staggered down, holding onto a tree.
He walked to a house with the door wide open. He looked inside and saw a shirtless man lying on a straw bed, moving his hands up and down, doing something unknown.
Mu Jinghua's heart skipped a beat and he quickly stepped back, trying to run somewhere else, but his legs went weak and he fell to the ground, alarming the people in the room instead.
The man reacted quickly. Before he could get up, he stood in front of him and said, "Hey, whose boy is this? He looks unfamiliar."
Mu Jinghua didn't dare to look at him. He took two steps back and was about to stand up when he felt a pain in his leg.
Chen Hu kicked Mu Jinghua on the leg. Seeing that the boy didn't cry or scream when he fell to the ground, he couldn't help but feel strange: "Is he a little mute?"
Mu Jinghua looked up at him in horror and shook his head slightly.
Chen Hu grinned, revealing his yellow teeth: "Are you hungry? You look so thin."
Mu Jinghua's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly, then shook his head embarrassedly.
"Don't be afraid." Chen Hu stepped forward and held out his hand to him. "I was careless just now. I have food at home. I'll help you up."
Mu Jinghua looked at the hand stretched out in front of him, paused slightly, shook his head, and then got up by himself.
Chen Hu withdrew his hand awkwardly and made room for Mu Jinghua: "Come in, I'll make you some hot porridge."
Hearing him say this, Mu Jinghua swallowed subconsciously, hesitated for a while, and walked in. 】
Hearing this, Xu Shu immediately understood the following plot. After all, he had seen a similar thing at Chen Hu's house that day.
Nan Gui was probably deceived in the same way at that time, and later...
Xu Shu felt a pain in his heart and quickly interrupted Qiao Wan: "Speaking of the point. He hasn't eaten yet."
Qiao Wan was choked: "Then let's jump directly to three years later. Three years later, Xiao Mujin found an opportunity to escape, but she happened to see bandits besieging the city."
"Let's skip this part." Xu Shu had seen what those bandits wanted to do, so there was no need to listen to the details.
Qiao Wan choked again and could only continue: "Anyway, the bandits were finally beaten by Qiao Jianhong. He recognized Xiao Mujin and took her back to the capital."
[On the first day Qiao Jianhong arrived in Beijing, he handed Mu Jinghua to Mu Tonghai.
At that time, Mu Tonghai was in a difficult situation in the court. When he saw that Mu Jinghua was so handsome, he thought of giving him to Emperor Zhaoyan as a young prince.
But seeing that Mu Jinghua was timid, illiterate, and didn't even call him "Dad" when he saw him, and was just a superficial appearance, he couldn't help but look unhappy.
On the first night in the capital, Mu Jinghua was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall.
In the first half of the night, there were people guarding nearby, one standing on each side. If you bent even a little, a stick would fall on you.
Mu Jinghua was beaten with sticks several times before he understood what those people wanted. However, the ground in the ancestral hall was colder than a dead person. Mu Jinghua's legs had been injured for a long time, and he lost consciousness due to the pain after kneeling for a while.
He remained in that position motionlessly, like a dead man.
In the second half of the night, the people who were guarding him got lazy and ran away. One of them kindly told him that there was a cushion under the table in the ancestral hall and asked him to use it as a cushion for his head.
Mu Jinghua came back to his senses and looked at the man. He pulled the corner of his mouth at him, but the man smiled ambiguously, touched his butt, and then turned and left.
He and the plaque of the dead were the only ones left in the ancestral hall. The black thing filled the entire room. The doors and windows were dilapidated and made a creaking sound when the cold wind blew at night.
Mu Jinghua hugged the futon and huddled in a corner, looking at the swaying shadows of the trees outside the window. He always felt that a female ghost would open the door and rush in to claim his life the next moment.
Xu Shu couldn't help but interrupt Qiao Wan again: "Life in the end times is already hard enough, can't you write something sweet?"
Qiao Wan rolled her eyes at him: "I'm getting to the point, don't interrupt me."
"My original outline was that Mu Jinghua endured humiliation at Mu Tonghai's side, and on the day of the talent show, the dog emperor fell in love with Mu Jinghua at first sight, and from then on, he was favored by her, and she would rise to the top, use the emperor to control the princes, and settle everything."
"But the next day I checked the written plot again and found that it had completely changed."
[The cold wind blew open the door of the ancestral hall, blew up the heavy curtains in the hall, and raised clouds of dust.
Mu Jinghua cannot speak, but because of this his sense of smell is extremely sharp. He keenly noticed that in addition to the heavy smell of dust in the air, there was also a faint, indescribable smell.
He hadn't smelled that smell in a long time.
After thinking for a long time, he remembered that it was the smell he smelled when he was fleeing in the mountains on the night he escaped from Yichun Tower.
That is the fragrance of black bamboo.
He suddenly felt very wronged, and tears started to fall.
He subconsciously wanted to call out a name, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't remember the name. 】
"It was as if he suddenly had self-awareness and began to have a past that even I, the creator, didn't understand. At the time, I just felt creepy."
"But this was my first time writing a novel, and that chapter was the first one I released publicly. Once it was released, it received over 100,000 hits."
"Of course I couldn't give up, so I went to look through the biography of Mu Jinghua that I had written before."
“The content of the biography has also changed dramatically, but I have only pieced together some clues about the person and the name.”
"That person should be very tall," Qiao Wan glanced at Xu Shu, "and very strong. His fighting ability is comparable to Qiao Jianhong, or even higher than Qiao Jianhong, but he is a gentler type."
"He has read a lot of books, his handwriting should be very handsome, and he has a faint scent of bamboo."
