Chapter 124: Captivity
Taiyi said: "There is a mirror over there. Since you're dressed so beautifully, go over and have a look! Is the current image acceptable? ”
I floated to the mirror. My figure was immediately reflected in the mirror. From the side, it is still convex and backward. And for the first time in my life, when I was still wearing the bodysuit, I saw a complete circle of trouser legs. The hip that protruded in the middle was not as pretty, but it was not as ugly as I thought.
Face the mirror with your arms drooping. The wrist is past the lowest point of the body. A long sleeve touched my exposed pelvis, which was supposed to be my thigh.
I used to like to put my hands around my curled legs while wearing bodysuits. At this moment, I was able to use both hands to directly hold the mutilated lower body and fasten it at the crotch. The palm of the hand is just enough to hold the two protruding sitting bones. When my finger touched the narrow strip of cloth in the middle of the pubic bone, it felt wet.
It's a novel feeling, but the thought of the slender legs I'm so proud of is lost forever. I didn't feel sad in my heart, and I hid my face and wept.
When I woke up from my dream, I instinctively reached down and felt the presence of my legs again. And the pain immediately followed, although it was not as severe as yesterday, but it did not decrease significantly.
Thinking back to the dream, if there was such a floating belt, it really didn't matter if there were legs or not. It's much better than dragging two stiff and painful injured legs right now. I really want to find my master right away and ask him to take me to have my leg amputated.
But I couldn't go. Thinking of Merlin, as well as Yuluo and her twelve maids. If I'm gone. Which of them will bear the fate of culling and dying on my behalf?
Early in the morning, Teacher Taiyi arrived as scheduled. "Nezha, have you thought about it? Can you change your mind? ”
"Master," I said, "I've got it figured." I am ready to face death. ”
Taiyi pondered for a long time and sighed, "Okay then! If you make up your mind, then the master will do everything in his power to protect your soul and recreate the immortal body for you. However, everything must be done according to the master's instructions! ”
"Okay, master!"
I handed over all the magic weapons in my hand to Teacher Taiyi, and asked him to take my shark clothes and the clothes left behind in the academy. I don't need them anymore in this life. If there is a chance to use it again, it will be a matter of the next life.
Not long after Teacher Taiyi left, Grandpa Bigan came to see me. Subsequently, Mrs. Concubine was also carried to my room in a small sedan chair by two servants. She took my hand, and before she could speak, tears began to flow.
"Why is Madame crying?" I said, "Isn't my grandson all right?" ”
"Nezha," Bigan asked, "why don't you go with Teacher Taiyi?" Do you know that the king intended to use seventy-eight slaves as human sacrifices to make up for the lack of sacrifice for twenty years? But after all, it failed to satisfy the will of heaven. Just last night, the heavens suddenly sent an oracle to ask for the royal blood as a human sacrifice. The divination really has your name on it. ”
My heart chuckled. Could there really be such a strange thing?
"If it is providence, how can I escape?" I say.
"But how do we tell your parents?" Bigan asked.
"Grandpa," I said, "please don't tell them yet. The master promised to protect my soul after death and recreate my immortal body for me. If I have not been born again after three days of sacrifice, it is not too late to inform them of my death. ”
Bigan heard this and was silent.
While speaking, the family members in the palace came to report that a team of palace guards had surrounded the young master's mansion.
"It's just too deceitful!" Madame shouted, "Your Excellency." ”
I smiled, "Since you're here, let's go!" ”
A chief of the palace guard was ordered to take me into the palace. Because I had difficulty walking, I was specially sent to carry me to Lutai Palace in a sedan chair.
After entering the palace, I was imprisoned in a confinement in the palace, wearing only a white robe.
It was a dimly lit room, divided by a fence into separate cells. It turns out that there is still such a place in Lutai Palace.
The bunk against the wall was covered with straw. But fortunately, the ground is quite clean, and there are not many rats and mosquitoes. Otherwise, it would be a nightmare for me, who has limited mobility.
After a while, another barefoot girl wearing only a white robe was brought in and put in the cell next to me. It's Merlene.
When she saw me, she immediately went to the fence separating us from our cell. "Nezha, why are you here?"
I took my crutches, propped myself up, and moved towards her.
"Nezha, your legs! What happened? ”
I moved to the fence on my side, three feet away from hers.
"I have angered the king. He threw me down from the star-picking tower. ”
"But don't you fly?" She asked.
"I've been pre-pierced with a pipa bone, and I've lost all my mana and spiritual power. Now I'm a waste. ”
With tears in her eyes, "How can this be?" ”
I didn't say anything more to her, and I didn't want to say anything.
As he spoke, the door opened, and another girl entered, barefoot and wearing only a white robe. It's actually Princess Yin Jiao. Why did she come here?
The chief guard respectfully escorted her to the cell on the other side of Merlin. "Princess, how offended your subordinates!"
"It's okay!" Yin Jiao said, "Lock the prison door." I've got my two cousins with me, and it's none of your business! ”
The chief of the guard leaves. Merlin and I still stayed where we were, holding on to the fence and looking at Yin Jiao over there.
Yin Jiao gathered a draped show, "Actually, it's not bad here!" She said, still with her usual arrogant expression.
Seeing that we ignored her, she said again after a while: "I don't know the day after tomorrow, which of the three of us will be disemboweled, sacrificed to heaven?" ”
It's disgusting!
Merlin listened, and said quietly, "It must be me!" The orphan daughter of the guilty minister is the most suitable as a human animal. ”
"Not necessarily!" I said, "Three hundred years ago, the sacrificial princess surnamed Yin is a real princess!" ”
The words "you ......" angered Yin Jiao. She grabbed the fence, her eyes glaring at me, her eyebrows raised.
I smiled slightly, "Cousin, why can't you make such a joke?" Of course I know that my sister is here to accompany the list. If it's the little sister who is disemboweled, my sister shouldn't curse the little sister's body because of this joke. ”
"I won't." Yin Jiao suppressed her anger, and she didn't want to see the same as me.
This night, I was still half-asleep and half-awake. I really think of a lot of old people. Yi Congshan, who once shot me with an arrow and stabbed me, Luo Yan, who broke her leg, as well as Hitomi, Aoi and Yui. It was only later that I realized that they were all dead.
Is it because I'm dying that I'm thinking of them? Or rather, I was summoned by their ghosts.
I want to sort out my thoughts and look back on my life in less than two years since I entered the world of gods. But the pain all over me never calmed me down.
The next morning, the three of us were led to the pilgrimage and knelt in the middle of the main hall. I couldn't support my legs at all, so I had to sit on my side.
Above the pedestal, the king sat on a large throne. To the left and right are his nine ministers. (Shang Rong is still on vacation, and Wen Zhong and Yu Hou Xi are not in Chaoge.) )
I looked at the king of the ring. Although the face after sobering up is not lacking in majesty, it still looks amorous and melancholy.
I didn't want to look at him anymore, but looked down at the ground.
"Let's get started!" The King said.
