Chapter 32: Purple-Eyed Soul Technique
The autumn wind is sorrowful, the leaves are fluttering, the flowers are falling, and everything is depressed.
The moonlight in the late autumn night is hazy and ethereal, and the bleak wind blows the withered branches, and the sound of "sizzle" sounds. The branches of the trees were reflected in the moonlight, and the shadows seemed to fall to the ground, growing larger and larger, as if they were about to swallow the earth, giving people a terrifying illusion.
The night is the best cover for all evils, and some people are always pure, flawless, kind and harmless during the day, but at night, they will transform into demons.
On the eaves of the prison of the Criminal Department, there are three figures, light and elegant, which are incompatible with this gloomy and rigorous pattern, these three people are Mu Xuefu and Ziyao Jinlu.
"Master, the key was taken from the cell boss. The guards of the cell also fainted, and could not wake up until dawn. Another red figure floated down beside the three of them, and the lowered voice was still as pleasant as a copper bell, and there would be no second person except Hong Shao for such a delicate voice.
"How did you get it, we are all waiting for the cold." Zi Yao snatched the key, couldn't help but shrink her neck, and complained.
Hong Shao snorted, lifted Zi Yao's ears, and said in a threatening tone, "You still complain to me?" ”
"Ah, tap and tap, Sister Hongshao, I was wrong, you let go." Zi Yao closed one eye and opened her mouth wide to beg for mercy.
Jin Lu was afraid that they would disturb people by playing, so she hurriedly dissuaded: "Okay, don't make trouble, if you alarm people, you will be in trouble." ”
Mu Xuefu smiled lightly and said, "The two of them usually like to fight the most, and they haven't seen each other for many days, so they must miss it." Then Zhengse, "Fight quickly, Jin Lu is guarding the prison door." ”
In the cells, more than a dozen jailers lay on the ground or on tables and chairs, and the inmates in each cell were unconscious. If it weren't for the breath, it would be no different from a dead man. The people here were all in the middle of Hong Shao's ecstasy, and even if they woke up, they didn't remember what had happened the day before.
Mu Xuefu walked into one of the cells, looked indifferently at the man who had fainted, and said, "Wake him up." "This person is Lu Liangzhen, just because he has just been tortured, his clothes are stained with blood, his hair is messy, and he has lost his former official authority.
Hong Shao obeyed, took out a small bottle from his arms, and shook it at the tip of his nose.
Lu Liangzhen coughed lightly, woke up slowly, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Mu Xuefu, but at this time, he was not allowed to be amazed, but an invisible fear arose. The woman in front of her was as beautiful as a fairy, smiling like a flower, but that beautiful smile seemed to be the summons of the devil. He looked at the three people in front of him in horror, and said, "You-who are you?" ”
Mu Xuefu slowly sat down on the chair next to him and looked around, "What's the use of telling you who we are?" Do you still want to sue us in the Yama Palace? Lord Lu's most important concern now is not who we are, but how we will treat you next. ”
"Who the hell are you? What do you want to do? Lu Liang really wanted to stand up, but found that he was weak, let alone standing, it was very difficult to sit at the moment.
Mu Xuefu raised her hand, and Zi Yao took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and put it in her hand. Mu Xuefu showed the paper in front of Lu Liangzhen's eyes and said, "I don't do anything, as long as Master Lu can write a confession on this piece of paper and draw a confession." ”
Watching the woman in front of him approach step by step, Lu Liangzhen had never been so frightened, and the momentum that followed made him breathless. He stared at the paper with wide eyes, a thought exploded in his mind, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Mu Xuefu tremblingly, and said, "Is it sent by King Rui?" ”
"You don't care who sent me, as long as you obediently draw the charge, I will make your death less painful. Otherwise, there are many ways to make your life worse than death. Mu Xuefu slapped the paper on the table, the momentum was cold, with an irresistible majesty.
Lu Liangzhen was fearless when he died, and laughed and said: "Okay, I confess my guilt, but everything was made by King Rui, and this official is just acting on orders." ”
Mu Xuefu sneered again and again, adding a bit of bewitchment to her delicate and charming face, and Qing Ling's voice overflowed, like a yellow warbler in the forest, "Do you think that if you don't write it, I won't be able to take you?" I wanted you to die without pain, but unfortunately, such an opportunity was missed by you. ”
Lu Liangzhen was stunned, and lost his soul for a moment because of his stunning appearance. When he came back to his senses, his attitude hardened, and he said loudly: "I don't write, what can you do to me!" ”
Mu Xuefu's expression suddenly turned cold, like a thousand years of ice, slowly squatted down, her white fingers choked his throat, the force became tighter and tighter, and she said coldly: "Toast and don't eat and drink!" "Er, the light of his eyes changed, and his purple pupils shone brightly, as bright as amethyst jade, exuding an extremely strange aura.
Between the waves, Lu Liangzhen only felt that he was on the verge of death, looking at the bewitching purple eyes, bottomless, as if he was in an endless hell. In an instant, his head was empty, and his soul had been deprived of seven points, and his eyes became hollow, without any focus.
Mu Xuefu slowly put down her hand, rose up, and when her palm rose, a brocade fell into her hand. She gently wiped each finger, and her lips lightly opened and spit out: "Pick up the pen, I will say a sentence, and you will write a sentence." ”
"The criminal minister Lu Liang really failed the emperor's grace, and used Jing Zhaoyin's identity to corrupt the law and disregard people's lives. This time, because of his revenge on the prince of Jingyuan, he assassinated the king of Pingjun and dropped the prisoner on death row to seek his own interests, which is really a crime that cannot be punished. The criminal minister is deeply favored by the emperor, but he does such a thing that heaven does not tolerate, and he is ashamed of the emperor's grace. Only one death can atone for one or two sins in order to repay the emperor's grace. ”
When Lu Liangzhen heard such an instruction, he picked up the pen like a puppet and walked around the paper, without hesitation for every word, just a few dozen words in one go.
Mu Xuefu looked at the confession with satisfaction and said, "Sign and draw." ”
Lu Liangzhen did not hesitate at all, and neatly finished what she commanded.
The purple eyes in Mu Xuefu's eyes slowly changed back to their normal color, and Lu Liangzhen's expression gradually returned to normal. When he was fully awake, he looked at Mu Xuefu in fear, as if he had seen a devil. Stretching out trembling fingers, pale lips trembling, "Who the hell are you?" What was done to me! ”
Mu Xuefu smiled, raised her hand, her fingers gathered into a claw-like shape, the corner of her mouth on the right side of her mouth hooked an arc, her voice was soft but chilling, and said, "Go and ask King Yama." After finishing speaking, I saw her put her fingers on the top of Lu Liangzhen's head, her fingers twisted slightly, and the smile on her face was even more bewitching.
Lu Liangzhen only felt that his head was like exploding, he hugged his head tightly and wailed in pain, this pain was simply worse than death for him, this feeling of pain was shrouded in the top of his head, and slowly spread to the whole body, the pain overflowed from the bones of the limbs, as if the flesh was being pulled out of the bones.
The devil, the smiling woman in front of her is simply a devil who has come out of hell, making people unable to survive and die.
"Please, kill me, please, kill me, I can't stand it, I can't stand it!"
Mu Xuefu smiled lightly, and then her face was like a cold wind, which was extremely cold to the bones. She slowly retracted her fingers and said, "This fairy gave you a chance, but you don't cherish it." His eyes were cold, the purple light flickered slightly, his fingers were as sharp as the fangs of a tiger, and streams of essence passed from the top of Lu Liangzhen's head to his palm. Mu Xuefu closed her eyes, inhaled deeply, and inhaled this essence into her body, until Lu Liangzhen fainted in pain before waving her hand.
Mu Xuefu stretched out her arms and made a small loop in the air, fusing the absorbed essence with herself before slowly opening her eyes. looked at Lu Liangzhen, who had passed out, and said with disgust: "It's really useless, I fainted so quickly, I can't even suck out all my essence." ”
"Master, hurry up, it's dawn in a while, and it's time for the medicinal properties to pass." Zi Yao stared closely at the movement outside the cell, for fear that someone would wake up, and urged Mu Xuefu eagerly.
Mu Xuefu let out a sigh of relief, glanced at Hong Shao, and said, "Smash the bowl on the table, and then cut both of his wrists, the mouth should be shallow on the outside and deep on the inside, don't make it look like suicide." ”
Hong Shao smashed the bowl to the ground with a "snap", and the fragments were scattered, she picked up the sharpest piece of it, raised Lu Liangzhen's wrist and made a cut, but her mouth complained, "Master, you are really careful, what is the difference between this shallow outside and deep inside?" Anyway, it's all bloodletting, how can those pretenses find out. After saying that, he slashed his other wrist open, and blood gushed out instantly, like gurgling water, spilling all over the ground.
"Of course, the most clever crime will not leave a clue, and it looks the same, but if it is an experienced crime, you will know at a glance whether it is a suicide. This is the final step, and it certainly should not be taken lightly. Mu Xuefu looked at the bright red blood as strange and brilliant as the flowers on the other side of the yin and yang road, and the smile on her face became brighter, as if it was not a corpse in front of her, but a perfect work.
After making sure that Lu Liangzhen was breathing, several people walked out of the cell. The morning star in the night sky twinkles, signaling that dawn is coming.
After Hong Shao parted ways with them, he returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Mu Xuefu and the others also cautiously landed in the east courtyard of King Chen's Mansion.
Bai Yi and Qing Zhuo didn't sleep, and waited for their master to come back. It wasn't until I heard a knock at the door that I let go of my heart completely.
"Fortunately, the master will leave the prince angrily today, so that we don't have to beware of the prince coming. It's just that the master's anger doesn't know when the prince will be able to dissipate his anger. ”
Mu Xuefu stretched her arms, and Bai Yi changed her bloodstained clothes for her, her face was calm, but she did not answer.
Seeing that the master didn't speak, Zi Yao grabbed the words and said: "It's good if you don't come, he is always out of nowhere." It doesn't matter if others sleep or not, they come to play chess in the middle of the night when they are interested. If the master doesn't provoke him, he will be afraid of doing anything. ”
After finishing speaking, a trace of imperceptible ripples appeared on the originally calm face, Mu Xuefu sighed softly and said with a light smile: "I'm afraid I'm falling out of favor." ”
