Chapter 3: The Abyss (3)
In the infinite darkness and cold, he felt dead.
Maybe if he really died, he wouldn't have to feel that pain anymore.
The only thing that held him and the world together was his mother, who seemed to be constantly pouring something into his body.
But compared to the boundless cold, the little warm current at my mother's fingertips was just a drop in the bucket.
The time in hell is so long, it is like a human life.
As time passed, he clearly felt the cold poison seeping into his body.
Eat away at his life.
Until the end, he couldn't even feel the temperature of his mother's hand.
His mother's desperate cries grew farther and farther in his ears.
He felt very sorry.
Although he was only six years old, he instinctively sensed that the time of parting had come.
I'm really sorry.
He couldn't do anything, not even raise his hand to comfort his mother.
He really wanted to open his eyes again and see the world again.
But he couldn't see anything anymore.
So be it.
The father is dead, and the emperor of this country, Chrysostom, has sentenced his five sons in a row, even if he does not freeze to death here, he will be beheaded at the execution ground.
He was a heinous death row prisoner.
No one in this world can save him.
He will eventually fall into the abyss of death.
As a young man, he took one last deep breath to meet the death he was supposed to come.
That's how it should be.
That's how it should be.
Why, exactly?
Just when he thought he was going to die, in the silence of death.
He heard the voice.
……
……
Click. Click. Click.
In the darkness, he heard the footsteps.
To this day, he still didn't understand why he heard the voice of a young boy who was already infinitely dying at that time.
And the person who barely makes a sound when he walks, why did he make footsteps at that time.
He didn't know.
But at that time, he did hear it.
And it was the voice that brought back his consciousness.
The little boy, who had lost his sight, heard footsteps coming from the darkness.
He had hated countless times why he had lost his eyes at that time.
He could only rely on those unforgettable sound memories to recreate the scene of that time over and over again in his mind.
Even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, he could still imagine what a near-miraculous scene his mother saw at that time.
An ice hell that is so cold and so quiet that even the shouts are swallowed up.
In the darkness, from the depths of the prison, a young girl came out.
For those who don't know the situation, it's probably a creepy scene.
In the icy prison where there is no grass, no one is visible, and no life is extinguished, under the infinite emptiness of the dark giant hall, the girl walked out quietly alone.
The sound of her footsteps was very soft, but in the ears of the young boy who had lost his sight, it seemed to knock on his heart step by step.
He couldn't see, but the next moment, he heard his mother hold her breath.
It was a scene that no one could have imagined.
The woman who was about to collapse when she saw her young son dying in front of her eyes looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.
Walk in darkness, but be like light.
At that moment, he couldn't see her.
But in the endless darkness.
She walked towards him.
Just as she approached, even the cold around her seemed to be expelled and eased a little.
Who is she?
The next moment, he heard his mother cry out in a daze.
"Your Highness?"
The next moment, he heard her voice.
"Well, long time no see, ma'am."
At this moment, even he was stunned when he was confused.
Someone spoke, but it was the voice of a very young woman.
A voice that can only be called a maiden.
"It's really here." Mother spoke slowly, a voice full of mixed emotions that he couldn't understand.
Here she comes.
In the middle of the night, he appeared alone in the depths of the prison to see the family members of the rebels.
"I happen to be on duty today, patrolling the Ice Prison."
The girl's voice paused, then spoke lightly.
Actually let such a little girl patrol the icy prison?
At that time, he only instinctively felt strange, but later he realized how natural it was......
"Lying."
What a natural excuse.
The mother, who was still emotionally broken at the last moment, denied the woman's excuse with great certainty.
"This is where I supervise." The girl continued to speak.
"My lord said the day before yesterday," my mother also said lightly, "Your Highness was sent to the Qingzhou camp to practice a month ago. ”
The young Princess Qi quietly stared at the girl standing outside the prison door and spoke softly.
"The practice period is, half a year."
Faced with the girl who wanted to continue to talk nonsense, the young woman made up for the last stab.
"And I know very well that that person will never be transferred back at this time."
Bring back the most dangerous and suspicious daughter.
Outside the prison door, the girl's mouth closed when she wanted to speak.
In vain was the young mother's complicated eyes.
The person in front of him, who was close at hand, should have been in the military camp in Qingzhou at this time, but at this time, he appeared here.
The next moment, the girl who had been silent for a while finally gave up looking for a reason and spoke softly.
"I know, if something like this happens, it's impossible for me not to come back."
"Come back secretly."
He didn't know why his mother was so cold in the face of the only person who appeared in front of them, but it wasn't until he really understood everything that he realized what the girl had done.
Facing the silent girl, the mother continued to speak.
"Yueniang won't promise to let me come back."
The girl glanced up at the woman in the cell, "I really know her." ”
"She wouldn't want her daughter to be involved in this." Princess Qi calmly analyzed, "As long as you get involved in this kind of thing, no one will end well." ”
The first of the ten evils, rebellion.
If you get it, you die.
Even if it is a royal family, there is no place to bury it.
Woe to you, family.
Hearing her mother's words, the girl suddenly raised her head and asked.
"Hate him?"
The young Princess Qi was stunned.
Hate whom?
He was also stunned at the same time, but for some reason, the figure of his father who turned around and walked out of the house in the early morning without saying a word suddenly appeared in his mind.
The next moment, he heard his mother's cold voice.
"Hate."
His heart skipped a beat.
But the next moment, he heard the girl's more perplexing question.
"Which one?"
Which he? Could it be that the girl is asking two people?
Before he could react, his mother had already spoken again.
"Is there a difference?"
The girl also seemed stunned, and the next moment, he heard her exhale slightly, and spoke quietly.
"It's late at night, and that person fainted after dealing with the rebels during the day, and he shouldn't have known that he was also sent in by those people below."
The amount of information in these words was too great for him to understand as a child, but his mother beside him froze.
"For the sake of your childhood sweethearts in the past, tomorrow morning the man wakes up, and the will will will come when he should be released."
The mother's body trembled.
Then he grabbed his hand.
"But what about him?"
