Chapter 1: The Light in the Cracks

Next Chapter

At noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, and the sunlight shone into the firewood room through the gap in the nail board, and Murong Xue lay on the ground, staring at the small ray of light in despair.

That's light, and it's hope.

The firewood room was a mess and a mess, and the doors and windows were nailed to prevent her from escaping.

Time passed minute by minute, and it was time to wake up from a dream.

The feeling of hunger and pain was so real that it gave her a slap in the face.

She tried to speak, but her throat was so hot that she couldn't make any sound.

In the whole of Kyoto, except for the head of the Murong family, no one would have imagined that the dignified Murong Mansion concubine would be broken by her biological father and thrown into a dilapidated firewood house to die.

killed him with his own hands, and finally had a disturbed conscience, so he let her breathe like this.

The one who sealed the doors and windows was Murong Tian, her biological father.

Even the subordinates did not want to come to the firewood room, and the rats were scurrying around, sometimes slipping past her.

Her limbs were numb with pain, and her clothes were stained with medicine, and it was Wu who poured poison soup that made her mute. The pungent smell of poison mixed with the musty smell in the firewood room made it difficult to breathe.

She was glad she was still breathing, and she tried her best to breathe.

How terrible it is, she actually dressed as the vicious female partner in the novel she was chasing recently-Murong Xueluo.

Although Murong Xueluo is Murong Tian's illegitimate daughter, Murong Tian has always doted on her since she was a child, and when she was five years old, after recognizing her ancestors and returning to her ancestors, she lived under the same roof as her half-sister Murong Fangfei in Fuzhong.

Murong Fangfei has both virtue and talent, both civil and military, Murong Xue is pampered and arrogant, has a brutal personality, has been in the house since he was a child, and bullied the weak everywhere with his identity as the eldest lady.

As he grew older, he gradually held a grudge against the entire Murong family because of his background. Compared with Murong Fangfei, she is very unpopular.

Even the subordinates in the house don't like her, but they don't dare to offend her on the surface, and now they are locked up and waiting to die, maybe the group of people watching the excitement are clapping their hands.

When chasing books, Murong Xueluo hated this vicious woman to the core, poor people must have something to hate, she was used to flying and domineering, she actually ate the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and told Guihai without a trace about the conspiracy between Murong Tian and Nangong Liuyun for so many years.

Today, the three forces of the DPRK and China are incompatible, Prime Minister Nangong Liuyun is in charge of the overall situation, and the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, although the Guihai family is only 20 years old and is in charge of the Guihai without a trace, but Guihai is brave and strategic, and his martial arts are extraordinary.

Guihai Wuji and Murong Fangfei have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and the two have no guesses, and the entire Murong Mansion is counting on the two to conclude a relationship, and the Murong family and the Guihai family can better stabilize the overall situation of the DPRK and China.

Murong Tian and Nangong Liuyun planned to use the marriage to annex the forces of the Guihai family, so that Guihai Wuxian was helpless and willing to use it. In the face of power, all children's private affairs are worthy of being exploited.

Murong Xueluo also didn't know if Murong Fangfei knew Murong Tian's strategy, and whether she had been devoted to returning to the sea since she was a child.

In order to win over the power, Murong Tian married her to the rumored congenital stupid Situ Fenghua, whether she was reluctant or not, she could enjoy the glory and wealth if she married, at least her life was worry-free.

The Situ family never expected that the bride-to-be, who was going to marry in a month, would be tortured like this at this time.

In the novel, the vicious female partner with the same name is so braided, and I don't know when she died in this stinky firewood room. When Situ Fenghua came to marry, she didn't even see her corpse that had already decomposed so much that no one could collect it.

Murong Xueluo only chased here, and she didn't have a chance to watch it when the author of the slag changed until she wrote the finale.

After wearing the book, he was forced to wait for death.

Yesterday, she was still scolding this brain-dead woman for her stupid behavior of being a demon and daring, and today, she felt an overwhelming despair when she was thundering and thundering, and there was nothing more desperate than waiting for death.

A vicious female partner that no one would like, she scoffed at yesterday, and now more than anyone else wants someone to save her from life.

Despite her appearance, Murong Tian and the Lin family still trapped her to death.

She struggled to keep her eyes open, to breathe, and to see the light in the gap.

Her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she couldn't tell if it was her own illusion, as if before closing her eyes, she saw that the light gradually enlarged. There seemed to be footsteps in my ears.

The morning sun gradually dispelled the morning fog, and among the bamboo forests, the horses neighed, and they were already tired after galloping all night with the carriage. Guihai stopped the carriage by the river without a trace, and I don't know how many times he lifted the curtain and glanced at the woman in the carriage again.

She still didn't wake up.

He jumped out of the carriage, the horses bowed their heads to drink, and he cut some grass to feed the horses, ready to feed them and rest for a while.

Murong Xueluo slowly opened her eyes, and at this time, the curtain was lifted again, and she tried to look, and what caught her eyes was the sunshine of the early morning and Xi, which was a little dazzling, and she squinted.

"It's good to wake up, drink some water first, I'll get you something to eat right away, I'm here, you can rest in peace for a while, don't be afraid, I've taken you out of there, it's safe now."

The boy got into the carriage, picked her up, and fed her some water.

There were a few brocade quilts under her body, very soft, and in the bumps, she also slept very luxuriously, she found that her limbs had been bandaged, she couldn't move, and the young man took care of her carefully.

His hands were very good-looking, his face was handsome, his eyes were shrewd, and there was a small birthmark on the back of his hand that looked like a flame, and the green silk that was originally neatly tied up was a little messy.

With this birthmark alone, Murong Xueluo determined his identity - returning to the sea without a trace.

Even if he was wearing a lilac coarse cloth shirt, he couldn't hide his aura of being a young man and an old man for a long time, with a handguard tied around his wrist, and his eyes fell on her, revealing unconcealed concern.

Was he who saved her? In the novel, Guihai Wuxian hated Murong Xueluo very much, but Murong Xueluo was wishful thinking about him for a long time, and even obstructed his marriage with Murong Fangfei in every possible way, designing to make them misunderstand each other, trying to make them gradually estranged.

However, he returned to the sea without a trace, and his affection for Murong Fangfei was stronger than that of Jin. Murong Xueluo framed Murong Fangfei several times, causing Guihai to hate her even more.

The man who took her out of that hellish predicament turned out to be him!?

How many plots did the author of the scum watch that she didn't have to chase that she didn't explain?

Simply, she left Murong Mansion, she is still alive!

What saved her turned out to be the perfect male protagonist she had imagined many times - returning to the sea without a trace!

Tears couldn't help but slide out of her eyes, some couldn't speak, some couldn't move, she blinked, tears were misty, trying to remember him clearly.

"With me, don't be afraid, I won't let you die, our agreement has not been completed, you have to live, I live, I will do my best to let you live too."

Guihai Wuxian comforted softly, carefully wiped away the tears on her face, and she felt the callus in his palm due to years of sword practice, touching her face, gently.
