Chapter 64: Into the Tiger's Den (1)

Walking in the dense forest, Kuroko held my hand tightly, afraid that I would be lost if I was left behind. He said that the people of Tianshu called this forest "ecstasy tent". Every tree and stone here is strange, and if you don't have a guide, you won't want to leave this forest even if you walk for ten days and a half.

What Kuroko said, in fact, I have already found out. The woman in white in front of her traveled an extremely strange route, and every time she landed seemed to have a mystery, suddenly to the right, sometimes to the left, and sometimes to turn around a big tree, and then change direction.

It took more than an hour to walk around and around before we made our way out of the dense forest.

The inky black sky was moonless and starless, and I was dragged like a blind man by the sunspot to the door of a house.

"You sleep here tonight, and I'll call you tomorrow morning." Kuroko pushed me into the room after speaking, and when he left, he poked his head in and added, "Don't walk around until I come tomorrow." Otherwise, you will die in a daze when the time comes, but don't blame the master for not reminding you! ”

"Oh!" I replied and ignored him.

After a few days, the person was so tired that he collapsed, and he did not have the strength to light the lamp, so he touched something like a bed and fell on his stomach. This slept came to the second day.

Early in the morning, as soon as the sky was bright, I heard someone open the door and walk in.

"Girl, get up! The Lord and the Lady want to see you! ”

"Which lady wants to see me?" I rubbed my eyes, and in a daze, I was pulled out of bed by Kuroko.

"Quick, wash your face, and comb your messy nest." Kuroko took out a damp cloth out of nowhere and put it on my face, freezing me to wake up immediately.

Is this veil wrung in snow water? How can it be like this!

I glared at him, wiped it carelessly and threw the handkerchief at him: "My hair is like a bird's nest? Your eyes are really white. ”

Kuroko didn't scold for the first time, but just smiled and took out a mirror from the table next to him and put it in front of me: "Look at it!" ”

I tilted my head to look in the mirror, and my face turned red. Where is this bird's nest? It's a weed that even a bird can't look at.

Kuroko kindly handed me a comb grate. It took me a quarter of an hour to straighten out my knotted hair and tie it up with a horn. As soon as Kuroko put down the grate, he pulled me all the way and ran wildly, and before I could see my surroundings, he pushed me into a house.

As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a fine sweet fragrance, raised my eyes to see, only to see the carved beams and paintings in the room, the layout was gorgeous, and a black lacquer table with a phoenix bird branch pattern in the center of the upper seat was more than a zhang long, which was twice as long as the case in the study of the general's mansion. A few days after the case, there was a pure white animal fur on the mat, not like a fox but like a tiger. But where in this world are there white tigers? Even if there were, who would be willing to kill them and take the skins and spread them on the ground?

I was looking at the furnishings in the room, only to hear the door move behind me, and Kuroko pulled me to my knees with a pop, hitting my knees painfully.

"I've seen the Lord, I've seen Mrs. Wuyin!" Kuroko slammed his head on the ground and shouted.

I lowered my head to catch first a pair of men's buckskin shoes, and then a pair of silk shoes with colorful dragonfly eyes embedded in the toe of their yellow shoes walking past me. The beaded curtain moved, and when I raised my head, I saw a middle-aged beautiful woman sitting behind the long case, looking at me with a smile, and the man in his shoes was already hidden behind the beaded curtain on the left.

"Heizi, I heard Qi Yong say, your mission this time was ruined in the hands of this kid?" The beautiful woman spoke.

"Mrs., it was Kuroko's poor consideration in advance that caused the mission to fail." Kuroko still slammed his head on the ground and replied respectfully.

"I've heard about it, the sword I gave you last time will be returned to Mingyi tomorrow, and I'll go and get another thirty staffs."

"Mrs. Xie!" Kuroko kowtowed three times, and looked at me again as if relieved.

"How old is Xiao'er? What is your name? Would you like to stay here and be used by the Heavenly Hub? ”

"Mrs. Yu, the little girl is fourteen this year, her name is Ah Shi, a native of Qin, and she doesn't want to stay here."

As soon as I finished speaking, Kuroko was already frightened. The beautiful woman covered her sleeves and chuckled, and said, "In this way, after the sunspot finishes returning the sword tomorrow, he will go to the medical dust to get a pair of death medicine!" ”

"It's Ah Shi who doesn't want to stay here, why doesn't Madame kill me, but kills him?" I was surprised.

"His recklessness and ruin the client's business is a capital offense. However, Gen Lord Qi Yong is very blue-eyed to you, and begs me to spare his life for the sake of Heizi finding talents for Tianshu. Now that you are leaving, then his credit will naturally not be remembered. If you go today, he will die today. If you leave tomorrow, he will die tomorrow, and it's up to you to decide. ”

I glanced at the poor sunspot beside me, and replied loudly: "Madame doesn't know, Ah Shi and this big brother have always been at odds, and whether he is dead or alive has nothing to do with me." ”

The beautiful woman covered her lips and smiled again, and then stood up: "That's itβ€”then I'll send someone to send the girl out of the valley immediately, and don't kneel down on the sunspot, go get the death medicine!" After she finished speaking, she walked out of the desk with a lot of grace.

The situation was completely different from what I had expected. I didn't pour medicine, I didn't feed poison, I didn't even let me drink the wine, and he gently and cleverly said that he wanted to let me go? But since I've entered this place, how can I be willing to leave without exploring the truth!

"Madame, stay here!" Before the beautiful woman went out, I stopped her.

"The girl has changed her mind?"

"Madame and Ah Shisu are not masked, why do you want to leave me in every possible way?"

The beautiful woman glanced sideways at the person behind the beaded curtain and said with a smile: "The Lord has already heard of the things that the girl did. It is naturally a happy event to be able to include the girl under his command. The people who stay in Tianshu have to be willing, the girl might as well stay here for four months, if you still want to leave after four months, I will send someone to send you back to Qin, how about it? ”

"And his life?" I glanced at Kuroko.

"It's up to you to kill or not to kill when the time comes."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"If the girl doesn't speak, I'll answer you. Kuroko, if you lose her in the past four months, you will apologize for your crimes! Alright, let's all go down! ”

As soon as I got out of the beautiful woman's yard, Kuroko couldn't help but point to my nose and scolded loudly: "You are too bold, dare to talk to Madame like this!" ”

"Hey, you're too bold, dare to talk to me like this!" I snorted coldly and sat down on the edge of the well.

As soon as Kuroko scratched his head, he suddenly remembered that his little life was still in my hands, and he fell to his knees with a pop, hugged my legs and began to cry wolf: "Oh, my grandma, you can do it, you can play here for four months, okay?" As he spoke, he shook my leg so violently that he almost pushed me into the well.

"You're too spineless, hurry up!" I tugged at him, and he held my legs tight, motionless.

"You promise me not to leave for four months, otherwise I won't be able to beat me to death."

"Okay, if you make me think this place is interesting, I'll stay for four months."

"That's what you said!" Kuroko got up from the ground with a bone, and without even giving me time to catch his breath, he pulled me and ran south.
