Chapter 44: Disfigurement

The water fell from Xiao Changge's body with a bang, and the smoke bubbled from her, and the smell was unpleasant.

The clothes stuck to her skin, it was pitch black, and Xiao Changge could feel the pain coming from her body, the feeling of being burned by the fire.

"Miss." Seeing that it was Xiao Changge who came out of the fire, Red Sleeves covered her mouth worriedly, not daring to believe that the person in front of her was her young lady.

The white and tender skin was burned and blackened, and even the face became black, and the red sleeves were extremely distressed to see.

"Host, dare to ask if this is the poetry and painting you said." Xiao Changge gave Red Sleeves a reassuring look, and then walked up to the host and handed the painting to the host.

The host hurriedly took it, but he felt guilty in his heart.

"When Changge went in, half of the painting had been burned, and he could only take the other half out." Xiao Changge said with a little guilt, but the host was moved.

The remaining half of it has also been blackened by smoke, and it is impossible to read the handwriting.

"Miss Xiao, it should be the old man who thanks you." The host said sincerely, tomorrow is the day when Xiao Changge and the others set off to leave, but they didn't expect this kind of thing to happen before, how could this temple catch fire for no reason!

The sky roared and lightning struck, causing some of the guests to retreat.

In the cloudy sky, a purple light split down from the clouds, and even Xiao Changge looked above the sky.

The fire is still burning, and it seems that it won't stop dancing until it is all burned clean.

Suddenly, there was a few swishs, and heavy rain fell from above.

The people around shouted in surprise that it was raining, it was raining, but Xiao Changge's face was serious.

It's raining, it's impossible, how can it rain!

In her previous life, she and Xiao Yayan came to the temple at this time, but at that time, Chunju was instructed by Xiao Yayan, although it was also arson, but Chunju only set fire to her house, fortunately she was not burned to charcoal outside at that time, but she was severely punished, because the fire burned in her house, those people thought that she was playing with fire and lit it, and she had no one to testify for her except Red Sleeves, and Red Sleeves was her person!

At that time, the weather was almost like this, although the clouds were thick, thunder and lightning, but there was not a drop of rain.

Now, how can it rain on this day!

Don't......

"Miss, let's go back to the house first in this heavy rain, and Red Sleeves will help you change your clothes." Red Sleeves was distressed, but Xiao Changge couldn't listen to anything.

Let the rain fall on her, she didn't feel it at all, she only thought about why it was raining, but no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't figure it out, and in an instant, Xiao Changge's eyes went dark and he fainted.

Seeing this, the guests also stepped back to their rooms, and some of them stood here out of curiosity and watched the rain extinguish the fire.

……

When Xiao Changge woke up, she had changed her clothes and was lying on the bed, her hands and feet were black, but her whole foot was on the fire at that time, and it was lucky that she was not scorched.

And Red Sleeves was lying on the edge of her bed sleeping soundly, as if she had taken care of her for a long time and was tired.

When Red Sleeves woke up when she noticed movement on the bed, Xiao Changge had already lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed, Red Sleeves rubbed her eyes and saw Xiao Changge wake up, so happy that she almost hugged her and cried.

"Miss, Miss, you finally woke up, it's so good, it's great, God has eyes, God has eyes."

Red Sleeves got up with a bang, clasped his hands together and muttered in his mouth, and the little hands were still shaking.

"Don't cry, I'm not dead." Xiao Changge said, Red Sleeves wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and nodded: "Well, don't cry, Red Sleeves don't cry!" ”

But when Red Sleeves saw the scar on Xiao Changge's face, the joy on his face was instantly replaced by sadness.

"Look at me like that, but what's on my face?" Xiao Changge saw that Red Sleeves suddenly asked unhappily, Red Sleeves sighed, obviously not reacting, and then his eyes flashed left and right and he didn't dare to look at Xiao Changge again.

"No, it's fine." Red Sleeves shook his head, this reaction was seen by Xiao Changge, this reaction was the reaction as soon as Red Sleeves lied, Xiao Changge looked at the bronze mirror behind Red Sleeves, and Red Sleeves blocked her when he saw this: "Miss, this is nothing to look at, your face is fine!" ”

"Even if I don't know today, I will know it tomorrow when I look in the mirror, and I can't hide it for a while." Xiao Changge saw that there was an extra scar on the left cheek on his delicate face, and he was afraid that he was burned yesterday.

Red Sleeves moved his body, wanting to comfort Xiao Changge, but Xiao Changge was not flustered or sad at all.

This has more scars, and if you want to marry someone in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a good family.

"Miss, aren't you sad?"

Xiao Changge shrugged his shoulders: "Can sadness make me look back?" ”

"I can't." Redsleeves said weakly.

"That's right, then why should I be sad about my appearance? That's just a simple waste of time. Xiao Changge said indifferently, it was false to say that she was not sad, others love beauty, and so did she, but now she is to blame for herself, and she can't blame others.

The matter of the temple fire, I believe that it will not take long to reach the ears of the Chu Emperor, the Chu Emperor's personality is uncertain, the fire of Yanfeng Mountain will burn the other poems and paintings sent, and I don't know if he will be powerful, and the monks of the entire Yanfeng Mountain will be punished.

The words of the monk of Yanfeng Mountain who were punished had nothing to do with her, but the fire burned when she prayed for blessing had something to do with her, and if the Emperor of Chu asked about the crime, they would be the first to push her out, reversing black and white and saying that she deliberately set the fire.

Emperor Chu was already jealous of Xiao Yongde's military power, so he couldn't seize the opportunity to demote Xiao Yongde, and if today's matter was really related to her, then Emperor Chu would definitely be mad.

And she took risks in order to protect Emperor Chu's poems and paintings, and she was disfigured, and Emperor Chu could reward her.

exchanging her appearance for her own life, she made a profit rather than a loss.

"How long have I been asleep?" Xiao Changge came back to his senses, and the rain was still dripping, but it was much smaller than at the beginning, so it could only be regarded as a drizzle.

"It's been a night, Miss yesterday, you fainted, you were really scared to death Red Sleeves, the host asked the doctor to show Miss that it was no big deal, but I was scared." Red Sleeves explained that only Xiao Changge knew that he was not frightened, but he couldn't figure out why it was raining even on this day.

Fortunately, this timely rain extinguished the fire in the temple, but the fire was large, but the rain could only extinguish the fire, and the temple should have been burned to charcoals.

"Why did it suddenly catch fire?" Red Sleeves said in pieces.

Xiao Changge's eyes became cold, if it weren't for the intention, how could there be the fire last night?

"Can I get you done?" Xiao Changge told Red Sleeves yesterday, where did Red Sleeves dare to forget.

"Well, Red Sleeves is done." Red Sleeves nodded, and as soon as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps slowly coming here.

"Sister, sister, how can you get out of bed if you are not well." Xiao Yayan came in from outside, and when she saw Xiao Changge getting out of bed, she immediately said worriedly, and behind her, there were several highly respected monks, all of whom were masters in the temple.

"Presiding." Xiao Changge saluted to the host, and the host was already guilty because Xiao Changge wanted to bring the painting out of the fire, and when he saw Xiao Changge saluting him, he immediately stepped forward to help him.

"It is an honor for Changge to visit Changge together, please take a seat."

Those people glanced at each other, but no one listened to Xiao Changge, but they all stood.

Xiao Changge knew that Xiao Yayan came with these people, definitely not to visit her, but to ask!

"Thank you Miss Xiao for your kindness, let's just stand, Amitabha." Fang Zhangzhang opened his mouth first, and Xiao Changge didn't stop him.

"A few people came together, could it be that there is something you want to ask Changge?" Xiao Changge's eyes swept over this row of people, except for the host who hesitated, everyone else seemed to believe that the fire in this temple was related to Xiao Changge.

"Sister, they don't mean anything else, they just want to ask where the fire in this temple came from?" Xiao Yayan saw Xiao Changge open the skylight, and she didn't need to go around in circles with Xiao Changge anymore.

"How do I know where this fire came from, sister, you asked the wrong person." looked at Xiao Yayan with clear eyes, but she was not in a hurry.

"Sister, don't be angry, my sister just asked casually, I was the only sister in the temple at the time, my sister should know what was going on." Xiao Yayan immediately waved her hand to defend herself, for fear that Xiao Changge would misunderstand her.

"If there is a will, how can I know what is going on?" The cold gaze fell on Xiao Yayan, which made Xiao Yayan's heart skip a beat, how could this person have such cold and frightening eyes.

Xiao Yayan has only been afraid of Yan and her father in her life, and Xiao Changge's eyes are exactly the same as Xiao Yongde!

Xiao Yayan raised her eyebrows, bowed her head slightly, and didn't dare to look at Xiao Changge, those eyes seemed to see through what she wanted.

"Miss Xiao, what do you mean?" The host also heard the meaning, Xiao Changge said that someone deliberately set fire to the temple, who was so ruthless to do such a thing that lost his conscience!

He thought in his heart that it would never be Xiao Changge, after all, she rushed into the fire regardless of her own safety for a painting, and for this reason, her hair was burned, even her arms and feet were burned in many places, and more importantly, her face.

Women are the ones who please themselves, which woman doesn't love beauty, now she has more scars on her face, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a good family in the future, the host looked at Xiao Changge's face, and felt guilty.

"Someone did it on purpose." Xiao Changge is very respectful of the host, so he even spoke to her with more respect.

Everyone was surprised, Xiao Yayan frowned and asked in disbelief: "Is what my sister said true?" Who was so vicious about burning down the temple? ”

Xiao Changge looked in the direction of Xiao Yayan, and everyone also followed Xiao Changge's gaze.

Che'er's face turned pale, and when she saw Xiao Changge looking at her, her hand holding the handkerchief became tighter and tighter.

Xiao Yayan calculated in her heart that Xiao Changge should not know what to do, Che'er did it seamlessly, but seeing Xiao Changge's confident appearance, she was a little panicked.

Outside the cave, the scavengers looked at the sky above the dark clouds but no rain, while there was lightning and thunder in another place, which he could not believe it.

"Qingtong, look at what kind of place it is." The scavenger swept the dust, and the Qing boy, who was busy in the cave, immediately ran out when he heard it.

"Master, that's the southeast, and that mountain looks like it's Yanfeng Mountain." Qingtong pointed to the place where the lightning and thunder were roaring.

"Even God ...... Hey......" The scavenger shook his head and sighed helplessly, not knowing what to say.

Although it is cloudy today, it should not rain ......
