Chapter Twenty-Six: Walking Through the Window
I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, Tao Ziyuan soon woke up again, and James seized the opportunity to kick her leg to make her notice herself.
"Huh, want to say?"
As he spoke, the two water dragons merged into one, turning into a rope that bound James.
"Say it. ”
As soon as he opened his mouth, something ran out of his mouth, and James fell to the ground, digesting the feeling of dizziness for a moment, and then watched as the transparent ball of water also gathered in the rope.
“......”
Enduring the discomfort in his stomach, James looked at Tao Zikite in front of him, who was already tossed and weak.
"Your doctor was asking about the relics of Mochizuki Town on the street, and someone heard about it and told me. I thought he was a bad person, so I pretended to be poisoned and let those officials send him. ”
"Holy relic, what holy relic?" Tao Ziyuan asked curiously.
James was secretive, it turned out that it was this thing that was being hidden.
"Don't go too far, you're a witch!" James said coldly.
"I know I'm a demon girl, so why don't I listen to it?"
The ropes on his body had begun to gradually separate as he spoke, and a painful expression appeared on James' face. But he was ruthless and ready to bite his tongue and commit suicide.
"As soon as you die, those officials who offended me during the day will also be buried with you. Tao Ziyuan said lightly, his expressionless face seemed to be really a demon who killed people without blinking, and James was a little cold when he saw it.
This can't be a ten-year-old girl, it's more reasonable to say it's a demon girl.
"Even if you don't say it, I know. The holy relics in Mochizuki Town, isn't that the same, I'm not interested, but now you should consider another thing than treasures. ”
"What...... What?"
"Let you go, if you spread the word that I'm a monster, then I'm not going to be the target of public criticism, so I can only kill you. ”
Listening to the understatement, James swallowed nervously, indeed, he couldn't resist the strong force, could he really wait for death as she said?
"But if I kill you, it will not be good for my cultivation, and I will be able to become an immortal in another two hundred years, what can I do, it's really embarrassing. ”
Tao Ziyuan learned from those people on the stage, and deliberately pretended to be embarrassed.
After a while, Tao Ziyuan squinted and looked at Mr. Zhan,
"Can you promise me not to say it?"
"Huh?" James didn't expect her to make such a request, although it was doubtful that she would become an immortal in another two hundred years, but it was nothing more unbelievable than letting go of such a person who was a threat to him.
"Even if I promised you, what if I lost my word when I went out?" asked James tentatively.
"yes, so what can I do?"
Tao Ziyuan looked more troubled and helpless, and thought,
"But I can't commit the killing ring, so you better hurry up and go, before I can regret it. ”
James: "......"
"You, it's really weird. ”
At this moment, James has completely regarded the Tao Zi Kite in front of him as a real monster, and it is impossible for ordinary people to learn such a skillful occult technique, even if it is an innate ability, it is impossible to do it so far.
James was convinced to walk in the direction of the door, the rope that bound him was gone, but he would not continue his second adventure.
"Go through the window. ”
"Hmm. ”
James was stunned, and under Tao Zikite's reminder, James left through the window, except for the water stains on the ground that would dry up at dawn, everything seemed to have never happened.
After James left, Tao Ziyuan walked to the window, and when he reached out to close the door and window, he saw the dim candlelight in a house not far away, and the figure reflected in the window could be faintly seen.
The sound of reading aloud came into my ears, which was the hope of the young family's life.
But sometimes, the world is full of lies, and some people are blinded by lies but don't know it, just like James, like the boy who is studying hard at night and looking forward to the vast mountains and rivers that can give him justice.
And some people, weaving one lie after another, firmly believe it, and finally unconsciously believe it themselves.
The snowy night reflected the moonlight, and the blue of the girl's eyes flashed quietly disappeared.
Tao Ziyuan covered the position of his chest, and struggled painfully with his eyes,
"Blue, no matter how hard it is, I will make that person pay. ”
"Good. ”
I don't know if it's her delusion, but she actually heard a voice in her chest, and she seemed to see the man's relieved look.
————
There was no dream all night, and Tao Zikite was still woken up the next day.
"Get out of the way, let's go inside, there's a youkai inside!"
"yes, get out of the way!"
"Get out of the way!"
"Youkai damn it! Let's burn her!"
“......”
Tao Ziyuan sat up, and he also understood what was going on outside.
It wasn't an unexpected sound, she had already thought about it when she let Mr. Zhan go.
I glanced at the position of the sun outside, and it was almost time.
After getting up and taking a sip of water, Tao Ziyuan walked to the door and opened the door from the inside.
I don't know if it was the door that opened suddenly, or if the ten-year-old weak girl in front of me was difficult to have anything to do with the word monster, in short, there was silence outside the door.
"Why did you come out?" the guard frowned, and immediately reacted to close the door, blocking the others outside, and wanted to close the door but was stopped by Tao Ziyuan.
"Why do you want to close the door? I'm not a monster, why do I want to hide with a weak heart?"
Tao Ziyuan looked at the guards and asked word by word, this is also for others,
"I used to be a person with a father and mother, but they are gone, so I am going to be treated as a monster?"
Tao Ziyuan's gaze moved away from the guard's shocked face, and then looked at the others who had quieted down at the door,
"Uncles, uncles, what evidence do you have to prove that I'm a youkai? Have you ever seen me use magic to hurt anyone?"
The crowd looked at each other, it was indeed a little unbelievable, after all, they had never seen a monster, but they had just heard from others that there were monsters in it.
All eyes fell on an old woman.
The old woman walked to the front with the support of the person next to her, staring at Tao Ziyuan's cold gaze,
"You are young, but you don't do things like ordinary children, that's one thing. Second, there was nothing going on in Mochizuki Town before you came, but after you arrived, the trees and flowers outside the city suddenly grew wildly, and it hurt people. Someone heard the voice of the demon dragon yesterday, if you didn't do it, who could it be?"
"Even if that's the case, it's just a coincidence at most, how can it be a monster!"
The guards were also angry, how could there be such fools, it was completely unclear whether they were humans or demons!
If you set fire to it in front of that group of officials yesterday, I'm afraid you won't even have room to speak, so you will be executed directly!
