Chapter 23: Cruel
Before Su Su was thrown into the warehouse, the last two pieces of talisman paper and soul nail in the bag, and even the bell on his waist, were all found.
This ship is the ship that Tantai Jin returned to Zhou. No matter how dirty it is, it won’t go anywhere.
However, it was really cold.
The cold wind of the winter night blew in, as if passing through the bones of a person, causing irritation.
Su Su couldn't get rid of the black cloth on his eyes, so he moved and squatted behind a few wooden barrels to block the cold wind.
The boat is already sailing.
The warehouse is far away from the upper floor. It can be heard from the sound of water waves that it is very windy tonight.
Su Su shivered, feeling like he was freezing.
Taijin threw her here, of course he didn't care about her life or death.
Confirming that there is no one around, Su Su smiled.
"Heavy fire, burn!"
The last piece of talisman paper floated out of her neckline. Fortunately, no one searched it here.
was lit up around, and instantly warmed up. A cluster of fire surrounded Su Su, flew around her a few times, and finally burned the rope that bound her hands and feet.
Su Su breathed a sigh of relief. This is the advantage of preparing more for going out.
It's better to rely on the sky and the earth than on yourself.
She brought her frozen hand close to the fire, and soon her fingers became flexible and soft. Su Suhe took a sigh of relief and stood up to pat the mud on his body.
It is naturally impossible for her to go to Zhou Kingdom with Tantai Jin, but it is good for her to go to the desert at this time.
Ms. Ye San's identity can't go far, so now it's a good opportunity.
Susu intends to go out to investigate and find a chance to disembark.
Unexpectedly, she walked to the door, and there was the sound of footsteps outside.
Su Su hurriedly returned to the place, blindfolded the black cloth, tied himself with a rope, but didn't tie the knot again.
With a move of her finger, the flames surrounding her went out.
Someone pushed the door and walked in.
The footsteps were very light, mixed with the wind and snow outside, and finally stopped beside her.
A low sigh sounded.
"Are you hungry? Let's eat something."
Su Su heard that it was the "madam".
The woman put down the food box and handed the food to Susu's lips. Su Subie began: "Who are you?"
The woman said: "Don't worry, I won't hurt you for the time being. You are still useful to your Highness. I won't let you die before arriving in Zhou."
"What happened to Zhou Guo?"
The woman paused: "I can't tell you this."
The cold wind came in, and the woman got close to the fox fur, and Su Su felt that she was looking at herself.
"I heard that your Highness is a happy person in Xia Guo, a kind-hearted girl, and has given him a lot of help. That person, isn't that Miss Ye San?"
Su Su thought, it is not.
The original owner never looked good at Tantai Jin. The person in front of him seemed to understand the concern about Tantaijin.
Seeing that Su Su did not speak, the woman gave a stern look: "Although you are the wife of your Highness, you insult and trample on Your Highness, even if you are not Ye Xiao's daughter, you can't escape death."
"Are you grieving injustice for him?" Su Su said, "I am so vicious, of course I am not as good as your lover. If you want to see me regret it, there is a high probability that it is impossible. If the lady is not willing Tell me the situation of Daxia and Zhou Guo, Madam, please go back."
Su Su smiled: "I have no appetite for food. You have seen this lady. I am so dirty and the warehouse is still cold. If you really sympathize with me and fear that I will die, you might as well find me some thick clothes. Come here."
Seeing that she was so stubborn, the other party had no intention of repentance, and said unpleasantly: "It really is Ye Xiao's daughter! Since your Royal Highness let you stay here, you can make atonement."
She got up and left.
Susu waited for her to leave, threw away the rope and black cloth, and packed some food in food boxes on the ground, which looked pretty good.
Even though Susu was hungry, he didn't dare to eat what they brought.
It's a pity, I didn't see who this "madam" was.
Susu covered his belly and flattened his mouth.
The other party didn't know what he was here for, so let's see what kind of vicious woman Tan Tai Jin was forced to marry in Daxia? Or simply ridicule yourself and let yourself confess the abuse of Tantai Jin?
Regardless of why, Susu won't buy it.
She walked out of the warehouse lightly, slouching herself, observing the situation.
Susu was very careful when he acted. She could see that although there were not many people in Tantai Jin, they had a high martial arts skill and could reach a top ten.
Even the little maidservant, who seems to have a very light pace, is obviously capable of martial arts.
Susu did not dare to go to the upper floor, so he had to patrol the middle floor.
She was very hungry, followed a handmaid to find the kitchen, and hid for a long time. When the people on the boat were asleep, Su Su picked something to eat.
Huozhezi Su Su from the kitchen took a few and wrapped them in oilcloth to prepare for emergencies. Her sacred fire curse was gone, maybe Huozhe could be used later.
Susu wanted to find weapons, but the people of Tantai Jin would not leave these things indiscriminately. She had to withdraw and go to the stern to take a look.
Broad river, heavy snow covered both banks, the center of the boat row is far away from the shore.
Su Su calculated the distance, and found out that he couldn't defend his sword right now, and couldn't make it through. If she used to swim, she would freeze to death in the water before she went ashore.
She has a headache, how can I run this?
all blame the seven-tailed fox.
I don't know if Seven-tailed Fox will look for him after the second brother returns. This time, catching the demon was nothing short of stealing the chicken.
Can't fly, can't swim, Susu can only return to the warehouse.
It's almost dawn, if someone finds her running out, something is wrong.
She huddled in the corner discouragedly, thinking that she could only wait for the boat to cross the bay, and when it was closest to the shore, she would try diving to escape.
*
The woman walked over slowly, smelling the blood in the air, she frowned, "What's the matter?"
"Madam, the servant gave clothes to His Royal Highness in the morning" The attendant looked horrified, "But see, Your Royal Highness..."
She didn't dare to say the words after .
"Madam" said: "You go."
The maid saluteed, was frightened in her heart, and staggered away.
Madam hesitated for a moment, opened the door, and saw Tantai Jin sitting cross-legged.
There is a huge cage in front of him, inside the cage, a huge wolf demon is closed. The wolf demon was locked by the chain, unable to move, and was howling depressively.
The sky curtain outside is pale gray, and the water is filled with light smoke.
The young Ufa red lips stretched out his hand and took out the wolf demon inner alchemy. The wolf demon twitched a few times and lost his breath.
Taijin swallowed Nai Dan without raising his head, and wiped his hand with the kerchief: "You are here, just sit down."
His fingers are cold and slender, with distinct joints, the blood is wiped off little by little, and the fingertips are white.
In front of him, there are several such iron cages.
There is even a skeleton with blood, and the bones are cold. Rao had seen such a scene before, and the wife still felt nauseous in her heart.
Tai Jin spread his hand, a cloud of black energy gathered in his palm, and a bright light appeared in his eyes, but, in a moment, the black energy dissipated.
The smile in his eyes disappeared and became cold.
"It's still not enough."
Madam looked at the corpse of the wolf demon and couldn't help but persuade: "His Royal Highness, since this method is not feasible, I shouldn't find another way."
"Another way?" Tan Taijin slowly chewed the words, and said, "I can't practice martial arts, my roots are very poor, I hurt my lungs at birth, I don't know how many years I can live. Aunt Lan An, you say there is still What can be done?"
As he talked, he covered half of his face and laughed.
"Look at you, what do you do with your face so ugly? Aunt Lan An, are you afraid of me too? I think this method is utterly conscience."
The woman's gentle face was pale, as if she had "abandoned" Tantai Jin and left Lan'an.
Lan An quickly said, "His Royal Highness, Lan An is certainly not afraid of you. I will help you what you do."
"As long as your Royal Highness needs it, let alone a few evil evildoers that harm people, it is a great demon, and the Night Shadows will find it for your Highness."
Taijin nodded in satisfaction and wiped his fingers with the kerchief. His fingers were cold and slender, with distinct joints. The blood was wiped off, and the jade-lined fingertips became paler.
"Of course I believe Aunt Lan An, you have proved your loyalty. Of course I will not treat you badly. You don't have to be a pity for them." He said, "Everything in the world is equally filthy. A demon who has no ability to protect himself will be this sooner or later. The end. I just gave them a ride."
"Your Highness is right."
Taijin looked at his hand: "Of course, like them, I have absorbed so many inner alchemy and it is hopelessly dirty."
Lan An felt sad and sorrowful in her heart.
For so many years, she occasionally questioned her decision at the beginning, but she did not turn her head back. Since she chose to raise a big demon, she couldn't really watch him die.
Her life is Roufei. If the empress wants him to live, Lan An will definitely do it.
Originally, the imperial physician said that the little majesty would not live to be ten years old. However, he has reached the crown by relying on the inner alchemy of the demon. Even if it is a wrong way, I have to go.
Lan An can only hope that Tantai Jin will be stronger, no matter how strong, cold-blooded, ruthless, or selfish, she must live anyway.
Lan An looked at Tantai Jin’s handsome side face, and suddenly said, “It’s the third day after two days of sailing. I heard that when His Royal Highness was in the Great Xia Kingdom, she didn’t get along well with Miss Ye San.”
Taijin's finger wiping action paused: "What do you want to say?"
"Lan An wants to say that what Ye Sanya has done to His Royal Highness in these years is enough to make His Royal Highness cut her a thousand times. However, His Royal Highness kept her for two days. She threw her in the warehouse and did nothing."
The air fell into a strange silence.
Taijin said: "It's ridiculous, Lan An, don't you think that I have feelings for her."
Lan An did not speak.
Although this is a ridiculous guess, Lan An couldn't help but think about it.
She has raised the boy in front of her and is the person who knows him best in the world.
Using a pair of dark pupils, he would ask her puzzledly: "What is life and what is death? If there is reincarnation, death is life."
"I just sent them to life, Aunt Lan An, why are you crying?"
TaiJin was born cruel without knowing it.
He caught the butterfly when he was young, and tightened his hand a little bit to watch its wings shatter.
Taijin did not kill the butterfly that polluted his food. Finally, the butterfly lost its wings and was dying soaked in sewage. I don't know which hour of the night it was, and it slowly lost its breath.
When Lan An walked in, the boy bit the contaminated food and pointed at the butterfly innocently and obediently and said, "Look, I learned to forgive."
But is that forgiveness?
No, it was cruel that was even more contemptuous and mocking. Lan An didn't know how many times he had told him that it was not possible. If it was incorrect, he would be regarded as a monster if he did so.
He is thoughtful, and gradually understands that he can use smarter and hypocritical methods to achieve his desired goals.
When Lan An saw Su Su two days ago, she thought she would become the butterfly in the end, pale and disappear into the world in a painful manner one night.
However, the girl is still alive and well.
Lan An:...
She went to the warehouse early in the morning and saw Miss Ye San curled up in the corner, hugging herself with her arms, her face is dirty, and she slept soundly.
The boat sailed for two full days, and it was almost out of the border of Daxia. Tantai Jin did not kill her, or even humiliate her.
He caught the butterfly, but only placed "it", and he didn't even dare to touch the "wings" of "it".
Ye Xiwu's appearance made his cruelty pause. However, this is not good news for Lan An.
From the moment the Emperor Zhou died, what was waiting for Tantai Jin would be endless killings. He shouldn't have feelings at this time.
Taijin frowned and said, "I really hate your idea."
He pressed his chest, the heart under his palm, beating steadily, beat by beat, cold and merciless.
Why Lan An has such a ridiculous speculation is really stupid.
"Tomorrow, the ship will pass Jiayu Pass." He smiled, "I will show you a good show."
I will prove to you that I don’t like her.
