Chapter 14: The Ghost of the Dark House

The maid Chunlan saw that all the soldiers suddenly got up and ran into the forest, and she followed closely, but she was a weak woman, and she couldn't catch up with these well-trained men. At this time, she was late, and her soul was frightened by the corpses all over the ground, and in a blink of an eye, she saw Princess Yuhan in Long Tianlin's arms.

"What's wrong with the princess?" Chunlan avoided the corpse and stumbled over.

"Princess Yuhan was injured by the man in black and has passed away. Long Tianlin's voice was surprisingly calm.

Chunlan saw the terrifying wound on Princess Yuhan's neck, and unconsciously took a few steps back, almost falling, but Huang Chong grabbed her. Her eyes were lowered, tears were pouring out of her eyes, and she kept whispering, "How is this going to be good, the king and queen will execute me, they will execute me." ”

Huang Chong suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and asked, "Do you want to live?" ”

Chunlan raised her teary eyes and nodded repeatedly: "I still have my father and mother to support, I can't die." ”

Huang Chong raised the corners of his mouth: "If you want to live, you just listen to me." ”

It's late at night.

The sleeping crooked was woken up by a warm hand, and she opened her eyes and looked at the expressionless jade fox in front of her.

"Don't make a sound. Jade Fox warned in a low voice, untying the rope that bound his crooked hands and feet, "Follow me." ”

As he spoke, he took his crooked hand and disappeared into thin air in the blink of an eye. In an instant, you will be in a different market.

Yuhu threw a burden to the crooked: "You change into the men's clothes inside, walk in the rivers and lakes, you will suffer a loss." ”

Staring at the jade fox pitifully.

Yuhu tried not to look at her as much as possible: "You saved my life, and now I will pay you back, and we will not owe each other in the future." ”

Holding the burden crookedly: "Who is Long Qi, why are you suddenly ......"

Jade Fox screamed: "Don't mention her name, I don't want to hear her name." Taking a deep breath, the jade fox pointed his finger at the crooked eyebrows, and the little light flashed away, "I cast a spell to hide your breath, otherwise the snow shadow will find you according to your breath, you can do it yourself." ”

After speaking, the jade fox turned around and disappeared without a trace.

Crooked held back tears, changed into men's clothes in the baggage, and clumsily learned to tie up his hair. Then I looked at the moon-white crepe skirt for a while before I folded it and stuffed it into the baggage. There were still a few silver ingots in the baggage, enough for her to live for a while.

The unfamiliar street, empty, crooked and did not know where to go, so I had to shrink in the corner, wait for the dawn, wait and wait and fall asleep again.

In her sleep, Yinuo took her hand and ran through the nameless village, and her father and mother looked at them fondly.

I don't know how long I slept, I was awakened by the aroma, rubbed my sleepy eyes, and saw the flow of pedestrians in the market, which was very lively. Sweeping his eyes, there are various stalls on both sides of the road, and there are all kinds of food and miscellaneous goods.

The crooked chest that had been hungry for a long time was pressed against the back, and it was a big deal to get up and fill the stomach first. There was everything to eat on both sides of the road, which really dazzled the crooked.

"What should I eat? I want to eat everything, what should I do?"

"Little brother, why are you alone, your mother?"

A hand was clapped on the crooked shoulder, and a lewd smiling face came into view.

Crooked pout: "Where is my mother, what does it matter to you." ”

The man laughed even more obscenely: "It's a fierce person, I like it." At this time, the crooked stomach growled, and the man said, "It seems that you are hungry, I will take you to eat something delicious." ”

Crooked glance at him: "I have my own silver taels, I can buy them myself." ”

"Really?" the man grinned, revealing his yellowed teeth.

Crooked didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, turned around and continued to look for food.

"You child is really disobedient, let the father be easy to find. The man picked it up crookedly as he spoke.

Crooked struggled and shouted, "You let me go, I don't know you." ”

The sound attracted many passers-by to stop and watch.

The man hurriedly said: "Just scold you a few words, you will learn from others to run away from home, it is really a father to death, let's go back quickly, your mother is waiting for us at home." As he spoke, he walked quickly, and soon flashed into the alley.

After walking through the alley and two more streets, the man stood in front of a splendid high-rise building with a plaque that read: "The first floor of the world."

The man carried Crooked straight to the back hall, put Crooked down when he got to the back hall, and clamped her shoulders with his hand to keep her from moving. At this time, a charming woman twisted her waist to meet her, and the man smiled all over his face: "Aunt Mei, I brought you goods again." ”

The woman called Aunt Mei glanced at her coldly: "It's quite delicate, much better than what you brought me a few times ago." Wei Qing, give him two taels of silver. ”

The man laughed a few times: "Aunt Mei, I also take a lot of risks to do this business of shooting flowers and catching sisters, two taels is too little." Besides, in our capital city of Ji'an, how many dignitaries and nobles and gentlemen like the posture of young men, I still don't know? At least ten taels. ”

"Eight taels, if you want, don't go back and forth from anywhere. ”

"Deal!" The man took the silver and pushed it to the other party, and did not forget to take away the crooked burden, and left the first floor of the world with joy.

Aunt Mei's follower, Wei Qing, controlled Crooked, punched and kicked him crookedly, and shouted: "You let go of me, let go of me." ”

*

When he woke up in the morning, he was gone, and the jade fox was gone, and Snow Shadow knew what had happened. He laid an enchantment around the Pear Blossom Valley, and it was impossible for anyone else to enter and leave the Pear Blossom Valley except for his brother and sister.

In the jade fox room, a letter is displayed on the table.

Snow Shadow Expands Letter:

Xue, I know you will blame me, but I have to do this, that girl saved my life, I have to pay her back, even if she is a child of the Long family, I have to repay this kindness, you know I don't like to owe anyone. And now is not the best time to find the Long family, in the battle twelve years ago, we were both seriously injured, and our vitality has not fully recovered, so it is not appropriate to act rashly. When you're gone, I'll be back. - Yu'er

Snow Shadow put down the letter, her heart full of mixed feelings.

He knew it wasn't the best time, but he didn't want to wait any longer, his patience had already been exhausted by the time that had passed day after day and year after year, especially at the moment when he saw the dragon sword, his resentment was stronger than ever, a rush of blood carried away him, he wanted to find her, he wanted to know why she left him.

*

Under Aunt Mei's instructions, Wei Qing threw the crooked man who kept struggling into a dilapidated house in the middle of the backyard.

This Wei Qing is about thirty years old, although he is not handsome, but his facial features are still upright, in addition to being Aunt Mei's follower, he is also her concubine.

When leaving, Wei Qing advised Crooked: "It's better to be obedient and obedient, so that you can suffer less." ”

He fell crookedly to the ground, and before he could react, the door was closed and locked. She hurriedly got up, ran to the door and knocked violently: "What do you want to do, let me out." ”

There was not a single window in the room, and the only glimmer of light crept in through the crack in the door. Crooked shouted tired, and sat down on the ground in despair, and suddenly found several pairs of eyes staring at him in the dimness, and those eyes were dim, as if they were only a shell.

One of the older girls, about fifteen or sixteen years old, looked at her weakly and said leisurely: "When we first came in, we were all like you, but in less than half a month, your will will be exhausted, and then you will beg them to let you out, and you will do anything for this." ”

Crooked is still ignorant: "What are they doing with us?"

The girl smiled dismally: "Be a prostitute." ”

Crooked doesn't understand: "What is a prostitute?"

The girl looked up and down crookedly: "You don't know what a prostitute is, could it be that you are from the mountains?"

Crooked nodded.

The girl shook her head: "Anyway, it's for you to sell yourself for others to have fun." ”

Crooked fell into deep thought, she didn't quite understand what the girl was talking about.

The girl stood up and slowly approached Crooked, who was startled by her scrawny figure, and couldn't help asking, "How did you get so thin? Are you sick?"

The girl slowly leaned against the wall next to her crooked side, and curled the corners of her lips bitterly: "I've been arrested for a year, and I don't know how many times I've entered this dark room back and forth, I'd rather die than do that thing." ”

When it came to death, Crooked saw a flash of light in the girl's eyes. It seems that death is a relief for her.

Crooked looked at the girl distressedly: "What about your family, why didn't they come to you." ”

At this time, the girl lowered her head deeply, and her voice was slightly choked: "My mother...... He's dead. ”

"What about your father?"

The girl burst into a bitter sneer, echoing in this dark space: "My father, my father has forgotten me, forgotten me. The girl's voice slowly weakened from shrill to small, barely audible.

Crooked slowly put his hand on her shoulder, and said softly, "Don't be sad. ”

The girl quietly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked up and squeezed out an unbright smile at the crooked face: "You still know how to comfort others at a young age, but you can't protect yourself now." ”

The corners of his crooked mouth were pulled to both sides, and his eyes were bent into a crescent shape: "My name is crooked, what is your name?"

"Chen Yun'er. ”

Time passes very slowly, especially when people are hungry, and it becomes more and more difficult. Clutching his stomach, which was almost up to his back, he collapsed on the ground and stood still, so that he could consume less energy.

The light and shadow in the crack of the door gradually faded, and Chen Yun'er sighed: "I survived another day." ”

At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door. Not long after, the sound of the door lock sounded, and then the door was pushed open, and Wei Qing's figure appeared at the door.

"Willing to follow me obediently. ”

As soon as Wei Qing's voice came out, the girls inside stood up one after another and poured out the door. The door closed indifferently again, and the bustling sound outside the door faded away, and Crooked continued to lie on the ground, staring at the dark ceiling.

Chen Yun'er was already hungry to the extreme, and her consciousness began to become sleepy: "Now that there are only the two of us left, what should we do." After saying that, he closed his eyes.

Crooked and puzzled, he pointed to the dark shadow in the corner and said, "It's just the two of us, isn't there another one in the corner?"

Chen Yun'er opened her eyes suddenly, looked at the corner she was pointing to, and suddenly her hair exploded, and she was completely sleepy: "Corner...... Anyone?"
