Chapter 468: The Dead Soldier of the Scarlet King's Mansion
Ling Xiaotian stood in the courtyard and watched Eleven return to the house, and then took these people into the main house.
Su Baitong was packing her incense box in the inner room, when she suddenly saw Ling Xiaotian come in.
Ling Xiaotian leaned over and took her hand, took her, and led her to the outhouse.
I saw that the ground in the outhouse was full of kneeling people, all dressed as guards. However, when they knelt on the ground, their bodies did not move, and the oppressive aura was by no means comparable to that of ordinary guards.
Su Baitong glanced at Ling Xiaotian in surprise.
Ling Xiaotian smiled. Pull her into a chair and sit down side by side with him.
"Lift your heads up." He addressed those kneeling below.
Those people all raised their heads and said in unison, "I've seen the princess." "Look at their faces, all of them are seventeen or eighteen years old.
Su Baitong looked at Ling Xiaotian again.
"They are dead soldiers, from today onwards, they will blend in with the guards in the palace, I will leave two of them alone for you, and you can order them to do anything in the future."
As soon as Ling Xiaotian's words fell, two people stood up from the team, came to Su Baitong, and knelt down again to salute.
Su Baitong is no stranger to the dead man.
In the previous life, King Xian had this kind of guard who specialized in assassination. Later, King Xian sent those dead soldiers to capture Ling Xiaotian.
However, she never knew that Ling Xiaotian also had this kind of dead soldier by her side.
"They used to live in Zhuangzi outside the city." Ling Xiaotian said lightly, obviously not wanting to explain too much to her, but he was afraid that she would ask, so he said very vaguely.
Su Baitong didn't embarrass him, just nodded, and then turned his gaze to the two kneeling teenagers in front of him.
"Get up." She said softly.
The two men obediently got up, but both kept their heads down and their eyes fixed on the ground.
The dead have the rules of the dead, and when they are alive, they are the master's sword, so they rarely have emotional changes.
Ling Xiaotian said to the others, "You all go out, and later Master Li will arrange for you to go to see the ghost." There are also their own residences. ”
The crowd retreated.
Su Baitong noticed that when they walked, there was no sound at all.
"Are their martial arts also very powerful?" Su Baitong tilted his head and looked at the two people in front of him.
This was a little childish, and Ling Xiaotian couldn't help but smile, "Naturally it's very powerful, they will live in this courtyard in the future, no matter when, as long as you call them, one of them will appear in front of you." ”
After a pause, he said suddenly. "But you'd better let Tangyuan get to know them first."
Su Baitong smiled faintly, turned around and went to the inner room to take out the little civet and put it in front of the two dead soldiers.
"It's called tangyuan." Su Baitong said seriously, "What's your name?" ”
The two men looked at each other, and each read a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
They were originally arranged by the Scarlet King to be responsible for the safety of the princess, how could the princess bring out a big cat, and asked them to exchange names
Although there is a hidden dissatisfaction in their hearts, there is no joy or anger in their eyes, they are just puppets who obey the orders of their masters, and even if their masters want them to die immediately, they will do it immediately.
The two looked up.
"Skeleton."
"Raven."
Simple names, one could even say that's just their code name.
Su Baitong nodded.
The little civet approached them and sniffed them boldly, its green eyes shining unusually brightly.
The two were stunned for a moment at the same time.
At first they really thought it was nothing more than the princess's pet. But when they saw its eyes, they suddenly realized that it was not a tame pet.
It is a beast.
It has the same aura as them.
The little civet licked his mouth, his green eyes narrowed, and in a blink of an eye, he turned into the lazy appearance of a domestic cat, squatting at Su Baitong's feet.
"Go down." Ling Xiaotian waved his hand lightly.
The skeleton and the crow's body moved slightly, and they left the house in an instant.
Su Baitong blinked, she didn't even see how the other party got out of the house.
When she turned her head, she saw Ling Xiaotian holding the corner of her forehead with one hand, her eyes condensed in a place in the void, not knowing what she was thinking.
Su Baitong didn't bother him, and took the little civet back to the inner room.
But when she came out by chance half an hour later, she saw that Ling Xiaotian was still sitting in the same place, and she hadn't even changed her posture.
Su Baitong couldn't help but sigh helplessly in his heart.
At the moment, there is no trace of love, and even the little civet can't find her, so I think the other party must have taken precautions and used something to prevent them from finding clues.
One day has passed since the three-day limit, and I don't know what the current situation is.
Although there seemed to be no movement on Ghost Face's side, he was actually more anxious than anyone else, and his injuries in the past two days had shown signs of deterioration.
Just by looking at the broken wound, you can guess that he must be unwilling to stay in bed and wander around.
Ling Xiaotian stared fixedly at a corner of the room, and suddenly felt a slight cool touch from the corner of his forehead.
"What do you think?" Su Baitong's voice came from behind him.
A soft smile gradually crept up the corners of Ling Xiaotian's mouth.
"I'm hungry, do I have anything to eat?" He asked.
Su Baitong just wanted to withdraw her hand and call Huixiang to come in to arrange the meal, but Ling Xiaotian grabbed her hand instead.
"Don't bother, it'll be noon in a while, just eat some snacks." Ling Xiaotian squinted lazily, "Do you still have any rose cakes you made yesterday?" ”
Eleven ate all the rose cakes.
But she must not say anything about this matter, otherwise this cautious guy may lose his temper again.
She thought for a while and said, "How can I always eat dim sum, I asked the small kitchen to prepare fresh fish yesterday, how about steaming some fish-stuffed dumplings?" ”
The smile on Ling Xiaotian's face was even bigger, "Okay." ”
Su Baitong is only a vegetarian, but she is still very careful about what he eats.
Because he was the only one to eat, she ordered to go down, and soon Huixiang sent two baskets of steaming steamed dumplings.
Su Baitong personally handed over the chopsticks, and Ling Xiaotian was satisfied to be a gentleman, and she served and ate twenty in one go.
"The sixth brother is actually eating good things behind my back." Eleven entered the house at some time, raised his nose and smelled, "It's so fragrant"
Ling Xiaotian smiled: "You're late, you don't have your share." As he spoke, he stuffed the last two steamed dumplings into his mouth at the same time.
"Be careful, don't choke." Su Baitong frowned. Serve as a side officer.
As soon as the hot food was eaten, his body became lazy, Ling Xiaotian rinsed his mouth and leaned on the recliner and smiled like a flower.
Eleven looked at the empty plates on the table, and said with a bitter face, "The sixth sister-in-law is eccentric, and the breakfast is all vegetarian, but she made food for my sixth brother in private." ”
Ling Xiaotian sneered, "As long as I'm not in the mansion, you can only be a rabbit with your sister-in-law." ”
Eleven was unwilling, arguing to eat steamed dumplings, Su Baitong had to let Huixiang go to the small kitchen of the ward.
When the steamed dumplings were served, it was noon.
"Sixth brother, do you want to eat more?" Eleven asked.
But after waiting for a long time, Ling Xiaotian didn't answer, turned his head, and saw that Ling Xiaotian had fallen asleep on the recliner.
