Chapter 15: Suspicious Woman
Dizzy, Tao Muqing didn't know if it was the next morning or still a difficult night, but for her, there was no difference between night and day, closing her eyes was dark, and opening her eyes was like a night of day, and she was facing a situation of isolation and helplessness.
All she knew was that she had fallen asleep from exhaustion and then woken up by the entanglement of snakes, but she woke up still hiding in the darkness under her nose and would not open her eyes.
Therefore, even if she felt the faint light in the crack of the door at this time, she did not want to open her eyes, subconsciously did not want to wake up, did not want to recognize the situation, did not want to face the ugliness of the outside world, preferred to deceive herself, and get a temporary peace in her heart, sleeping in the self-constructed dream and the illusion of self-preservation, escaping from reality and giving up on herself.
In a daze, Tao Muqing was shocked to find that the snake that had been entangled around him all night was slowly retreating, and when he thought that he could finally breathe a sigh of relief after being frightened all night, he suddenly heard the sound of people's struggle and collision, and immediately woke up.
"Hmm...... Bang bang!"
There is still her in this room!
Tao Muqing was confined in a small space all night and couldn't stretch, turned his body with difficulty, followed the sound, and was suddenly startled.
It turned out that it was a woman who saw the pile of things in the corner last night!
Her clothes were ragged, and there were blood stains all over her body, and under her tattered clothes were dazzling blood marks.
Seeing that she could only move in her direction with her elbow, the iron chain pulled her so loudly that Tao Mu Qing looked at her hands and feet and felt a chill in her heart.
What had she done? They were so cruel that they took off her hands and feet, and imprisoned her head with an iron cover, leaving only a gap between her eyes under the iron cover, and a thick iron chain behind the iron cover connected to the wall, restricting her range of movement.
The woman was very excited when she saw Tao Muqing, screamed hesitantly, and slammed her head against the wall, as if she wanted to say something.
I didn't know what she wanted to say, but her eyes were full of anger and hatred.
This made Tao Muqing puzzled, she had never had contact with anyone when she came here, let alone had a holiday, why did she hate herself?
"You... Are you?"
Tao Muqing tried to ask something, but she still just screamed, and couldn't hear why.
Since she can't say the whole thing, let's ask the question in the simplest question-and-answer style.
"I can't see the girl's face, but the girl seems to have something to say to me, and the girl knows me?"
Tao Muqing didn't point out the hatred in her eyes, and when she saw that she was silent for a while, she nodded heavily, and she was even more puzzled.
Who else is there besides her ruthless cousin Tao Ya'e? The others have already died on the Blood Spirit Island.
Tao Muqing really couldn't think of a second person, so he could only say helplessly: "I don't know what the hatred in the girl's eyes is, I just came out of the island, and I really can't think of who you are." ”
After a few stumbling sounds, the woman slammed her head against the wall again.
The sound of banging against the wall shook Tao Muqing's head and swelled, his body immersed in the water was cold, but his mind felt hot, his limbs were weak, and his consciousness was gradually blurred.
When I woke up from a nightmare, I was greeted by a pair of worried eyes.
It's ridiculous, there are still people who are worried about themselves?
"That...... Miss Liuli, do you still feel uncomfortable?"
Tao Muqing looked at the boy who was scrambling beside the bed with moist eyes, dark skin, very rough hands, and he looked about ten years old.
As soon as Tao Muqing heard him call himself Liuli, he scolded in a deep voice: "I'm not called Liuli!"
"Okay, okay, don't shout, don't get excited, the injury on your shoulder is not healed yet. The boy raised his hand and asked, "What is the girl's name?"
Tao Muqing almost blurted out his name, opened his mouth and finally closed it, silent.
She can't say!
Seeing that she also seemed to have something unspeakable and couldn't say it directly, the boy thought about it, and in that case, he would only call that girl in the future.
The boy made a decision, sighed and picked up the bowl on the table and said, "That girl, you drink the medicine while it's hot, when Zhang Qiang and Da Niu went to the dark hall to bring you back, you fainted with a high fever." ”
Tao Muqing didn't take it, looked at him suspiciously, everyone wanted to hurt her, why was he so good to himself?
The boy knew what she was suffering, and he didn't blame her for being suspicious, and comforted her with a smile: "It's really medicine, the bustard's mother still thinks that you will make money for her, and it won't hurt you." ”
"Then I can't drink it. "She is the fault of becoming so embarrassed, how can you easily believe that she will suddenly be merciful.
"If you don't drink, when the bustard mother runs out of patience, you will only suffer more sins, and if you don't have the strength, how can you escape. ”
Tao Muqing's words sounded reasonable, but who knew whether this bowl of medicine was good medicine or poison, so no one retreated, no one answered, and the two were still deadlocked.
At this time, the bustard mother walked in with a happy fan on her face, Tao Muqing saw her smiling face and involuntarily curled up and leaned towards the wall, the horror in her eyes was obviously obvious.
What does she want to do to herself!
"Don't panic. The bustard mother sat on the edge of the bed with a smile on her face, wanting to pull Tao Muqing's hand, Tao Muqing looked at her and thought of being locked in a dark room, and cowered and avoided her hand.
The bustard's mother was not angry, smiled, took the medicine bowl in the boy's hand, spooned a small spoonful, blew a few times and said: "I didn't expect you to be so stubborn, it's really admirable, I also figured it out, I'm not an unkind person, look at you and be pitiful, I let people find that lame for you...... That man, you just stay to do things, how about this deal?"
"Really?" After a few seconds of excitement, Tao Muqing's face darkened again, this bustard mother would be so kind to help her?
"But I don't know how to play the piano, I can only ...... He only hums tunes and never does anything that violates conscience and ethics. Tao Muqing Chechenono said, almost uttering the recitation.
"It doesn't matter, you can learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting slowly, I am a place to do business, and I won't let you do stupid things. As long as you are willing to listen to me, I will not only take care of you for free food and lodging, but also let people find the man you miss day and night. ”
Tao Muqing's thoughts were all about Shuyang's safety.
It's been two days and two nights, and I don't know what happened to Shu Yang at this time......?
No, it won't!
Single-mindedly thinking about finding Shuyang as soon as possible, Tao Muqing could only grit his teeth and agree even if he was nervous.
"Okay, I promise you. Saying that, Tao Muqing took the medicine bowl in her hand and drank it in one breath with the bitterness that was difficult to enter her throat.
Her nod surprised the boy a little, and the bustard mother smiled triumphantly and nodded in satisfaction.
The bustard's mother raised her hand, and the maid ring beside her took out the deed of sale that had been prepared and put it on the table.
The bustard's mother pointed to the document and said, "After signing it, we are the master and servant relationship, so that I can also find someone for you with peace of mind, right? ”
Although she said that she was reasonable, but her unfriendliness to herself at the beginning made Tao Muqing have to be wary, Tao Muqing took the document and read the general content, what was required was nothing more than to play the piano and calligraphy and painting by herself, just ......
Tao Muqing was puzzled: "This is for life?"
After signing it, she has to stay here for the rest of her life to do things for her, but she can't help but avenge the destruction of the island and the destruction of her relatives!
The bustard's mother said unhurriedly: "There will be gains and losses, all I signed here are lifelong deeds, depending on whether you want to find someone, or do you want to continue to suffer from flesh and skin, all in all, you want to go? ”
If Shuyang can be found, he will be willing to be a cow and a horse for her for the rest of his life, and as for the blood feud of destroying the island and destroying relatives, let's think about it in the long run.
