Chapter 722: Skinning
(This chapter is slightly bloody, please take it as appropriate~)
The heat of the pool water rose, forming white mist in the cold winter night, and Liu Huazhang in Changning's mouth did not respond to her words.
At this moment, Liu Huazhang's whole person was immersed in the soup pool, his white arms stretched out on the edge of the pool, and his back to Changning.
Changning slowly stepped forward, took out a box in the cabinet on one side, and walked to the pool in person.
Liu Huazhang still didn't look back, her long hair scattered by the pool was jet black, covering most of the golden pillow by the pool, only the curled cloud carvings at the corners were exposed, highlighting the preciousness of the pillow.
"Liu Huazhang, are you scared?" Changning smiled and walked closer.
A strong wind suddenly blew outside, blowing the window frames and blowing off the veils to cover most of the entire pool.
The flickering candle flame flickered, and finally three of them were extinguished, making the entire soup pool even more gray, the faint wind whistling, the scene was a little cold, and Liu Huazhang's exposed arms were visibly covered with goosebumps.
Changning walked up to her and sat down on the edge of the soup pool: "Do you know why I have to soak you in the soup spring?" ”
Liu Huazhang was clamped by Changning's chin, forced to look up, and blinked.
Changning smiled: "In this soup pool water, I have a kind of medicinal powder called Leak Force, and the person who soaks it will even be numbed by the tongue, and it is difficult to move, only the eyelids can barely blink." ”
Liu Huazhang couldn't speak, his body couldn't move, and he already knew that he was a dead end.
Because her life-saving talisman is the Jiaohuan Gu in her body, and the medicinal effect of Jiaohuan Gu can only last for five days, and now that the five days have long passed, Mu Qingyan has not had anything to do with her, so the Gu is still in her body, but the medicinal effect has disappeared.
That was the only antidote to save Mu Qingyan, Chu Changning was ruthless and didn't let Mu Qingyan care about her, now that the effect of the medicine has passed, Mu Qingyan will definitely die.
Liu Huazhang himself will definitely die a good death.
She knew it in her heart, but she didn't understand why Chu Changning put her in such a luxurious pool, in order to humiliate her by stripping her naked and bathing?
The strength in her body was scattered, and she couldn't ask a stomach of questions, so she could only wait for Chu Changning's next step.
Her eyes were fixed on Changning, and she saw her open the box and take out the sharp knife inside.
Liu Huazhang's eyes widened instantly.
She is very familiar with a knife of this size, peeling and taking noodles.
Chu Changning wants to skin her face alive, in this pool!
Liu Huazhang struggled desperately, but only let out two whimperes that were almost pleading.
It was too painful, and she knew very well that a person who was skinned alive would not die immediately, and even because there was no major damage to his body, he could live for a long time.
until the blood runs dry, or until it hurts to death.
But her tongue could not even plead.
"You're going to say we're cousins, right?" Changning held a small dagger, and her grim smile was reflected in the sharp blade.
Liu Huazhang blinked desperately.
Yes, they are cousins, dear.
Changning's blade was three inches against Liu Huazhang's jaw, where the peeling began.
She could almost feel Liu Huazhang's trembling as she collapsed, her eyes bloodshot with fear, hideous and painful.
"But when you started to skin me, you didn't hesitate." Changning opened his mouth expressionlessly, the blade had already cut into the flesh, and the horizontal knife slashed lightly, and a crescent-shaped blood mark appeared on Liu Huazhang's fine white chin.
Changning stood behind her head, his other hand against the tip of the knife, and with a gentle push, he just rightly removed half an inch of fine skin.
Liu Huazhang's eyes were bloodshot, and the pain made her tremble subconsciously, but her tongue still couldn't move, and she couldn't make any sound.
"You want to say that you didn't skin me?" Changning repeated, but his subordinates showed no mercy.
"Do you know why I was able to win? Because in the previous life, it was you who won. ”
As Changning's voice fell, the water in the pond began to turn bright red.
Blood droplets flowed down Liu Huazhang's neck and collarbone into the pool, gradually staining the crystal clear pool water.
……
In the darkness of the night, Zhao Yu followed the mark to this remote but well-guarded courtyard.
"The princess is in there?" Zhao Yu asked.
The subordinate nodded: "The subordinates saw the princess go in with their own eyes, and I see that this place was heavily guarded before the princess came, maybe it was the place where they held Miss Huazhang." ”
Zhao Yu squinted his eyes, feeling that this made sense, but now they couldn't break through the guards at all, let alone rescue Miss Hua Zhang.
And in order to supervise the situation on the Southern Emperor's side, he has already divided one-third of his manpower, and there are only about 20 people around him.
So the best way is to protect Miss Huazhang and then find a way to negotiate with Chu Changning.
This is Zhao Yu's wishful thinking, and it is also Liu Yizhan's original plan.
But soon, he realized that his idea seemed to be wrong, because the guards of the entire courtyard were actually closing the line.
This does not bode well!
Zhao Yu watched vigilantly, and saw the princess dressed in black coming out of the house, only a little hesitant in steps, but quickly adapted to the situation, beckoning someone to retreat with her.
"Not good!" Zhao Yu exclaimed.
If Liu Huazhang is in this room, and Princess Changning leaves and takes all the guards with her, it can only mean ......
Miss Hua Zhang has already met with an accident.
"Quick, go down and see if Miss is still saved!" Zhao Yu personally jumped off the beam, and several figures swished into the house.
The water in the pool had cooled down, but there were no white arms and a woman's back by the pool.
Zhao Yu and the others opened the veil with their swords, and stepped forward vigilantly, only to see that the pool water was blood-red, and there was a naked body of a woman floating on it, and the black hair was scattered in the water, like a ghost.
Rao is these iron-blooded soldiers were also frightened by this scene and closed their eyes, let alone go to the water to catch people.
However, Zhao Yu and the others were still very vigilant, but when they turned over the upside-down corpse, they found that the corpse had no face at all, and the wound was blistered and flesh mixed together, how to identify this?
"It's a peel." Zhao Yu knew that Liu Huazhang had this skill, and he also knew that Liu Huazhang wanted to peel off Princess Changning's face at the beginning, so that Fenghua could easily look like Changning for a long time.
Unexpectedly, now, he was skinned by Princess Changning.
"But how could the princess do this skinning?" Zhao Yu frowned and was puzzled, but the person in charge of checking the surrounding situation stepped forward to report that Liu Huazhang's clothes had been found on the side, and this body should be Liu Huazhang.
"But the tokens on Miss Huazhang's body are gone, I don't know if they were searched." The guards report.
Zhao Yu didn't care, Liu Huazhang was a prisoner, and he didn't even have half a strand of clothes when he died, let alone a token.
"Let's go." Zhao Yu ordered.
"But ......" Someone hesitated and didn't collect Liu Huazhang's body?
"How many people do you want to know we've been here? You can't startle the snake. Zhao Yu said.
As soon as Liu Huazhang died, Mu Qingyan had already received the antidote in Huazhang's hands.
Even if he doesn't, it's the county king and the princess who are desperate, he has no chips, it's a problem to save his life, and he will collect Liu Huazhang's body?
