Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng almost choked to death by a mouthful of his own old blood. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although, there is nothing wrong with Brother Dumb's logic according to what she explained, but these are completely different things!
Chu Yunsheng regretted the perfect explanation that she was quite complacent just now, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Brother Dumb seriously, and then lowered her voice and said: "But the definition of a daughter-in-law is not only to live a life without abandonment, but also to hold hands with two people, but also to ...... Sleeping together......"
On the latter topic, Chu Yunsheng no longer wanted to continue to discuss with Brother Dumb, otherwise, he was afraid that Brother Dumb's curiosity and desire for knowledge would be brought up again.
Without waiting for Brother Dumb to speak, Chu Yunsheng hurriedly tugged at his sleeve and said, "Okay, let's not do any other discussions, let's go and see who is in the opposite room first, and then find out the situation." β
Although he received the news of asking for help, when he saw the shocking blood words, Chu Yunsheng felt that he couldn't sit idly by, but after calming down, he still thought that he should at least figure out what was going on and figure out whether the people detained here were good or bad.
Hearing Chu Yunsheng say this, Brother Dumb gave up and continued to entangle more on the issue of "daughter-in-law", and as soon as his body moved, he swept out from under the bed.
Chu Yunsheng also followed and came out from under the bed, she stood still in front of the bed, looking at the person who was called Ming Tsai before was still asleep, since the first thing that person thought of was to come to him, then it probably means that he is the steward among the few people here, so she walked over, raised her hand and lifted the thin quilt covering him, and sure enough, she saw a key pinned to his waist.
Chu Yunsheng pulled down the key, and then walked out of the room quickly, Brother Dumb was already waiting there, she pushed aside the person who was sitting and sleeping next to the door, and then opened the door with the key.
With a creak, the door was opened, and there was another scream from inside.
According to what she heard before, Chu Yunsheng had already guessed that there might be some women inside, however, when she opened the door and saw at least twenty or so women in her prime crowded in the room, she was still a little surprised.
Although it was of the same structure as the room she lived in, there were no furnishings or furniture, not even a bed, a thin layer of straw on the floor, and a wooden barrel in the corner of the doorway that emitted a strong pungent odor, which made the whole room look dark, damp and dirty.
I didn't expect that so many women would be imprisoned in this small room, and what were these people doing with them?
Thinking of this, even if she hadn't reached a conclusion yet, several guesses that popped up in her mind in an instant already made her shudder.
At this time, she was dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, and she pushed the door in like this, obviously scaring the frightened girls inside.
They curled up tightly together, hugging and supporting each other because of worry, and at this time they all raised their eyes and looked cautiously at Chu Yunsheng at the door.
For a while, Chu Yunsheng didn't know what to say.
She sighed, then raised her hand to the ceiling, then took out the note from her sleeve that she had received from the crack in the plank before saying, "I live on the upper floor, and when I heard the voice, I cut a gap in the floor to see what was going on underneath, and then I received this note." β
After seeing the note in her hand and hearing her explanation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
And at this time, they all raised their eyes and opened their eyes wide, looking at Chu Yunsheng with hope, and almost said in unison: "Help us!"
"Please, Childe, save us!"
"We are innocent. β
β¦β¦
For a moment, there was a cry of prayer in the room, and among the voices with a crying voice, one voice was particularly eye-catching: "Is it you?"
It was only two words, but these two words, which were different from the words and emotions of other girls, made Chu Yunsheng hear it in an instant, and she hurriedly raised her hand to look in the direction of that sound.
However, this look turned out to be dumbfounded.
Because in that group of girls, the woman who had just spoken, wearing a turquoise skirt, her hair was only loosely tied in a bun at the back, although her appearance was not stunning, but she herself seemed to have an innate dignity and nobility.
The kind of demure and beautiful that comes out of the bones is pleasing to the eye.
And this pleasing woman is also Chu Yunsheng's old acquaintance.
Just a few days ago, she was still worried that she couldn't hear from her, but she didn't expect to meet her here.
Helian Shu.
In the past, Zuo Sikong's pearl in the palm of his hand, Helian Shu.
At the beginning, Helian Shu, who didn't care about his reputation and didn't hesitate to offend Lord Liu, wanted to save her and Yu Shenyuan.
As soon as she saw that it was her, two tears burst out of Chu Yunsheng's eyes in an instant, and she didn't care about anything else, she walked directly to Helian Shu in three steps and two steps under the surprised gaze of the other girls, and grabbed her hand tightly and said excitedly: "It's you!"
Helian Shu obviously didn't expect to meet Chu Yunsheng here, and the moment she saw Chu Yunsheng, her eyes turned from initial uncertainty to shock to excitement at this time.
She raised her hand to hold Chu Yunsheng's hand, and then nodded vigorously: "It's me!"
The two raised their eyes to each other, as if they had a thousand words, but they didn't know where to start for a while.
It was Chu Yunsheng who calmed down first, she sighed, and then pulled Helian Shu and said: "I don't know what you have all experienced, but I can't stay here longer, but the guards outside have been drugged by me for the time being, and it is estimated that they will wake up early tomorrow morning, however, after all, we are still on this vast sea, I heard that these people still have a relationship with the captain of this ship, so at this time, we must not have a head-on conflict with them, how about we wait until we have to dock?"
Hearing this, not only Helian Shu, but also the other girls hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Seeing this situation, Chu Yunsheng said: "Now those guards are still asleep, you go to talk to me first, and I will send you down later, if anything happens, I believe that with these girls to help cover up, they will not find that there is one less person for a while, wait for me to go up and ask my friends to bring some food to everyone." β
Speaking of this, Chu Yunsheng thought that when she came in for Huzi to deliver food before, those people outside directly threw the steamed buns in, she subconsciously turned around, and saw that there was still a layer of steamed buns piled up on the ground at the door, the lower layer was already moldy and rotten, and the top few fresh ones fell on top of the rotten, but there was no longer any desire to make people want to eat, they continued to be moldy, smelly and rotten in that corner.
As soon as they heard that Chu Yunsheng was going to take Helian Shu away, the other girls instantly wilted like frosted eggplants.
Their eyes also had disapproval written in them.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes to look at Helian Shu.
Helian Shu told the truth: "I came up with the method of knocking on the ceiling and handing out the note in blood, and they were afraid that I would leave them. β
As she spoke, she sighed, then turned to the two nearest girls behind her and said, "Huarong, Huayue, I'll go and go back, believe me, when I'm not there, you have to take your sisters to be careful, don't let those people see it." β
Hearing this, the two girls with somewhat similar appearances did not hesitate any longer, they looked at Helianshu and nodded firmly, and then said in unison: "Sister, don't worry." β
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng pulled Helian Shu out of the room, in order not to arouse suspicion, she still locked the room, and then put the key back to Ming Zai's waist and covered him with the quilt, and after restoring everything, Chu Yunsheng took Helian Shu and the dumb brother who was waiting at the door all the way up the stairs and returned to his room on the second floor.
Lan Yi had been standing at the door for a long time, and when he saw Helian Shu who was brought back by Chu Yunsheng, and then looked at the eye contact between Helian Shu and Chu Yunsheng, Lan Yi was puzzled: "Could it be that Miss Chu, do you know?"
Chu Yunsheng nodded, didn't explain much, and said bluntly: "Lan Yi, I need you to help me go to the back kitchen to make more convenient meals, and when we send them downstairs, there are still a lot of girls down there." β
Hearing this, Lan Yi didn't ask much, nodded and turned to leave.
Chu Yunsheng called Brother Dumb to stand guard outside the door to see if there was any movement outside, and to call her in time if there was any noise.
After arranging these, Chu Yunsheng pulled Helianshu over, poured her a glass of water, and watched her drink to the bottom, thinking of the situation in the room he had just seen, and then thinking about the kind of brocade clothes and jade food in heaven and earth that Helianshu had lived before, Chu Yunsheng's nose couldn't help but have a wisp of sourness.
Helian Shu was so smart, she could already understand what Chu Yunsheng was thinking with just one look, she hurriedly waved her hand and then pretended to smile easily: "It's okay, Miss Chu don't have to worry, it is already my creation to meet you." β
Speaking of this, Chu Yunsheng remembered that she hadn't asked Helian Shu how she had fallen into the hands of these people and been taken on the ship, and where she was going to take her, she said: " After that day, the Liao Kingdom has undergone earth-shaking changes, the right Sikong ascended the throne, and now he is the king of the Liao Kingdom, but Miss Helian, please believe that he did not have the idea of wreckage Zuo Sikong Mansion at the beginning, those are really done by the former queen and the three princes and the Yue King who was designed by them, after he ascended the throne, I heard me talk about you, and then he immediately sent people to search for your traces around the temple, as well as Yu Shenyuan, and also sent a large number of people to find it, but you and the great master are like evaporating from the world, no matter how you look for it, I thoughtβ¦β¦β
Thinking of this, the guilt in Chu Yunsheng's heart deepened a little.
If it weren't for Helian Shu's righteous protection, she would not have been calculated.
However, Helian Shu didn't mean to blame Chu Yunsheng at all, she sighed, then raised her hand and patted the back of Chu Yunsheng's hand, signaling Chu Yunsheng to relax, and then said: " When you walked Tai Chi, I didn't have time to tell you that the exit was under the small waterfall on the edge of the cliff, and I was running out after you, but just in the blink of an eye, I didn't see you and Yuxiang's figures, for this reason, I even ran two courtyards without any trace of you, just when I was worried about your safety, but I didn't expect that Lord Liu suddenly ordered a comprehensive search of the temple, and I don't know what order he received, he actually said that my uncle was a traitor, and he wanted to take down his uncle, and he also ordered someone to tie me up, if it was another time, even if they didn't respect us for three points, they didn't dare to do anything to us easilyAt that time, I had to be, something must have happened to my father, that day, I was hiding from my father and sneaking out of the house with the maid, so there was no guard around at all, so they were arrested, that Lord Liu was a villain who must be revenged, and at that time I was imprisoned with the maid, and then at sunset we were expelled from the Liao country in accordance with the punishment of the Liao country to sentence the slave or the family of a felon, and then, I don't know what he had to do with the leader of these people, so he locked the two of us with these girls, and it is said that the girls who were taken away by them on the ship will eventually be sold to the brothel of the Qinglou on the continent of Wuzhou, Some of the good ones will be sent to the underground auction house and finally become the playthings of the rich or powerful, I was very scared, and tried all kinds of ways to escape, and Cui'er ...... The personal maid who grew up with me since I was a child was also given by them on the way to escape in order to save me...... Beat ...... alive"
Speaking of this, Helian Shu couldn't say any more, her voice was already choked, and big tears had rolled down her cheeks.
For a while, Chu Yunsheng didn't know what to say, she only felt extremely guilty and bitter.
If they hadn't met Helian Shu at that time, thinking about it, she wouldn't have been retaliated against like Lord Liu, with her uncle's connections as a great teacher, at least she could have kept her safe at that time, but she didn't expect that just because of the appearance of her and Yu Shenyuan, all her lives were disrupted.
Looking at Helian Shu, who had only been seen for a month, her cheekbones that had already lost weight, Chu Yunsheng's heart was full of distress in addition to guilt.
However, what has already happened cannot be stopped, and the life that has already passed cannot be repeated.
