Chapter 4 The Little Bell of the Spirit
After Xueying's death, Chang Le never shed tears.
He thought he was going to cry, but he didn't expect that tears, anger, and breathing were suffocated in his chest, and the whole person was about to explode, but he couldn't make a sound.
He stumbled on the wasteland, his vision was dim and trance-like, and all he could see was Sister Xue Ying in his arms.
He left the castle to bury his sister, but by the time he walked out of the gate and crossed the suspension bridge, Chang Le had forgotten his original intention, he didn't know where he was going, he didn't know what he was doing, and his whole person was like a walking corpse.
I don't know how far he went, he tripped over the ravine under his feet, leaned forward and fell, in a trance, he only knew that his arms were raised high, holding his sister in the air to avoid falling, and his body and face slapped on the ground.
After this bump, Chang Le came to his senses, remembered what he was going to do, and picked a comfortable and soft place to help his sister lie down. Then I found a ready-made pit, hoping to process it again and make it deep enough that my sister could sleep quietly and not be dug by wild beasts.
The digging action was extremely crazy, and Chang Le almost broke all his nails after a moment of digging with his hands, but the pace did not slow down in the slightest.
Just ten minutes ago, I just learned my sister's true affection, and let my long-buried crush erupt, and I had the first extreme intimacy in my life in the haystack, and my body and soul were happy to the clouds and heaven.
And now, the world is hell!
Ten minutes ago, my sister said that she was going to give him a son, and he was still smiling and fantasizing about the sweetness of the future, but now his sister's soft body is cold, and he is digging a grave for his sister!
The lives of untouchables are worthless, and the happiness of untouchables is vulnerable!
Ten fingers are only traumatic, how can it compare to the sharp pain of the whole heart being torn and crushed?
At this moment, his hands were dripping with blood, but the bell hanging from his neck slipped out of his collar and hung down, swinging back and forth to obstruct his vision.
Chang Le gritted his teeth and grabbed the bell and pinched it fiercely, as if he wanted to strangle this hateful fate, and the blood on his hand was stained with the copper bell.
It's impossible to crush it, there was a teenager who bullied Chang Le to snatch the bell, smash it with a stone, and after Chang Le took it back, he found that the bell didn't say anything dented and scarred, not even the slightest spot, it must be a baby, even if it can't bring luck, at least it's hard enough and indestructible!
Chang Le pinched it, purely to vent the anger in his heart.
But at this moment, the bell suddenly became hot, and the blood "moistened" deep into the brass, and then the whole bell flashed a red light, although it was short, but it was clearly visible.
"What's going on?"
Chang Le was stunned and stared at the lucky bell for a while, but there was nothing unusual.
Now that he didn't care about anything else, it was important to get down to business, so he stuffed the bell back into his collar and continued to dig like crazy.
It wasn't until the size was almost the same that it was time to put Xue Ying in and bury her in the earth, that Chang Le sat down next to her sister and hugged her in her arms to say her final goodbye.
At this moment, Xue Ying's eyes are staring at the sky blankly, her skin has changed from white to pale, and her lips have lost their bloody color, but she is still beautiful, poignantly beautiful, and heartbreakingly beautiful.
Chang Le gently closed his sister's eyes, stared at her face, the love in his heart was so strong that he couldn't dissolve, no matter how reluctant to bury her in the loess, he had to hug his sister into his arms, face to face, tears rolling down like a.
But he still didn't cry, since Xue Ying wanted him to be a real man, he didn't want his sister to hear him cry bitterly.
And that bell, sandwiched between the two of them at this moment, faintly emitted a ** warm current, like ripples in a hot spring, which not only poured into Chang Le's chest, but also affected Xue Ying's body.
Chang Le didn't have the heart to take care of this strange phenomenon, and his sister was now the only one in his world.
Sooner or later, the corpse will stiffen, and then slowly decay, Chang Le wants to take advantage of the terrible thing before it happens, to see his sister more, hug his sister, and hold him for as long as he can.
It wasn't until the red sun was slanting westward and the night was getting thicker, that he couldn't see his sister's face clearly, and Chang Le choked up and said goodbye:
"Sister, you can sleep here in peace, I will go back to the young master and find a chance to avenge you! I don't care about beating and killing people! I don't care about retribution in the next life! I just want revenge!"
Of course, Xue Ying would not respond, still leaning softly in Chang Le's arms, silent.
Why is my sister's body still weak? It's been a few hours, why hasn't it stiffened?
Chang Le's heart beat wildly, didn't my sister die?
He immediately went to check Xue Ying's snort and heartbeat, but unfortunately he was still disappointed.
However, when his fingers touched Xue Ying's lips, he found that it was no longer cold, but slightly warm!
"Sister, you're not dead, you're sleeping, sister, you talk!"
Chang Le hissed and shook Xue Hotaru's body vigorously, but it had no effect, instead making Xue Hotaru's head hang to one side, the angle was very unnatural, and it was obvious that the cause of her fatal death was a broken neck.
After rekindling hope, Chang Le finally couldn't hold back and cried bitterly.
He was crying and thinking, his sister is not a living person now, but she doesn't look like a real dead person, how can he bury people? What if his sister wakes up in the future, but finds that there is darkness around her, and she is in the ground, what a tragic picture it is?
"Is there a way to keep my sister with you all the time?"
Chang Le closed his eyes, thinking about such a ridiculous thought, the dark vision through his eyes turned red, as if there was a strong light shining in front of him, and then his arms were light.
He hurriedly opened his eyes, only to find that Xue Ying was missing, his arms were still in a hugging posture, and his arms were already empty!
He crawled like crazy in the twilight, turning over the deep grass, screaming hoarsely for his sister, desperately searching for the whereabouts of the firefly, but finally found nothing.
After exhausting his strength, Chang Le gave up his futile search, fell on his back in the wild grass, stared at the sky in a daze, and was puzzled by this matter.
When he first saw his sister, his impression was that a light lit up, but he didn't expect to lose his sister in the end, which was also a light that passed away. Could it be that my sister is an angel of light in the mortal world, so she is so beautiful?
Even so, Chang Le will not feel relieved, because he has lost his sister forever after all.
Until the sky lit up with stars, Chang Le returned to the castle in despair, and the first thing he did was to ask the Baroness to complain to her about the young master's atrocities.
The ending was actually expected, and the baroness listened to the whole thing, and her beautiful face remained silent, and she only pouted:
"I knew that that kind of beautiful woman was a scourge, let the housekeeper put her in the flower room and come out less, this can't stop her from seducing the young master!"
"Xue Hotaru didn't seduce the young master!"
Chang Le no longer cared about what "untouchables should not look down on aristocratic women", and looked at the baroness angrily.
"You pariah, don't you know the rules!" The baroness was annoyed by Chang Le's gaze, called the guards over, and dragged Chang Le out and whipped him a few times.
The baroness was much more merciful than her own son, but the impact of these whips on Chang Le was even greater than the hundred whips of the young master at the beginning.
Chang Le already knew that it was impossible for the Baroness to let her son pay for Xue Ying's life, but what he wanted was an explanation, at least the lady had to admit that his son was not a thing! At least he should apologize on behalf of his son! Even if it was just a guilty expression!
Unfortunately, his conjecture was turned out, and from the well-groomed and beautiful face of the Baroness, nothing but coldness and contempt could be seen.
The aristocracy will not do justice to the untouchables, just like someone trampled on a cockroach, how can they apologize to the family of the cockroach?
So, that night, a black shadow like a civet cat slipped into the barracks silently and stole a dagger from the pillow of one of the guards.
"If you don't give me justice, I'll ask for it myself!"
From this day on, "Good Child Chang Le" disappeared from the world with Xue Ying, and another new Chang Le full of hatred and murder was born!
However, for four consecutive days, Changle never succeeded.
The young master is a level 2 monk, and it is impossible to kill him face-to-face during the day, so he can only wait for him to sleep at night. But the cultivator's perceptual ability was too keen, and Chang Le sneaked into the young master's bedroom twice at night, and heard the latter's questioning:
"Who? What are you doing in the middle of the night?"
Chang Le had to make an excuse, saying that he came to see if the house was warm enough, and whether he wanted to add more firewood to the fireplace.
Winter has passed, and this reason is quite reluctant here and now, but the young master has no doubt at all, and only scolds Chang Le, "Get out, don't disturb my cultivation."
Obviously, even if the young master knew that Xue Ying and Chang Le were close, he was not worried that Chang Le would take revenge, because the untouchables had neither the strength nor the guts. Who would be worried about the revenge of the cockroach's relatives and friends after stepping on a dead cockroach?
For four days, Chang Le has been looking for an assassination opportunity, but more time has been spent pondering and meditating, where has his sister gone?
Until now, in the hustle and bustle of Kassel City, Chang Le hung outside the carriage door and still lowered his head, and his sister disappeared as a light, what happened?
Until he heard the foreman on the other side of the car shouting "Stop!"
The galloping carriage quickly stopped, and the foreman smiled at the young master in the window:
"There is a beautiful woman in front of her, with a hot body, a bit like the female gardener who died a few days ago, is the young master interested?"
After the young master killed Xue Ying, he felt a little regretful that he "didn't play", and ordered his entourage to help find beautiful women, and the foreman was also "dutiful".
Chang Le looked up and looked forward when he heard this, and his heart was shocked: "Sister Xue Ying!"
However, he soon realized that what he saw was not Xue Hotalu, but just a girl with a similar appearance.
That girl is about the same age as Xue Ying, she is also amazingly beautiful, she is also tall and has long legs, and the tall peaks on her chest are not lost to Xue Ying. And her clothes are more form-fitting and tight, and her trousers are tightly wrapped around her hips, and when viewed from the side, the arc is particularly eye-catching.
The woman was crossing the street, just in front of the carriage, and when she turned her face to glance at it, Changle was like being struck by lightning.
Strictly speaking, there are still some differences between that woman and Xue Hotaru. Xue Ying's eyebrows are lighter and her appearance is gentle. The woman in front of her has straight and thick black eyebrows, a cold look, black trousers and black leather boots, which are much less feminine than Xue Ying, but a little more heroic.
The more significant difference is the skin color, this girl has a higher nose bridge, her face is so white that there is no blood, and her eyes are slightly blue, obviously with aristocratic features, but a noble woman will never wear trousers, let alone go out alone like this!
Even if she is a commoner, she is still a level higher than untouchables like Changle and Xue Ying.
But in any case, since Chang Le felt that she looked like Xue Ying, he would look more and more like her, and his heart would be sour and painful.
Young Master Taylor heard that there was a beautiful woman in front of him, and of course he was very interested, and peeked out of the car window, only glanced forward and shouted:
"Hey, girl, are you a nobleman?"
The black-haired girl was expressionless, and she didn't make a dodge gesture, standing tall in front of the car, and shook her head lightly.
Taylor had a weird smile on his face: "It's good if you're not a nobleman, hehe......"
He seemed to be talking to himself, and he seemed to be deliberately speaking to the black-haired girl.
The fact that the other party is not a nobleman means that they can be bullied at will. If a nobleman kills a commoner, he will be compensated with a maximum of dozens of gold coins, and as for the untouchable female gardener who was killed a few days ago, not to mention, her relatives did not dare to make trouble, at most they cried twice behind closed doors at home.
The black-haired girl heard Young Master Taylor's words, looked as usual, and asked indifferently:
"It's not a nobleman, so what?"
Master Taylor did not answer directly, but turned to his men:
"Invite this girl to get in the car and take her for a ride outside the city!"
In addition to "No. 3" and Chang Le, who were still stunned by the carriage, the other three servants all smiled and took the order, shaking their bodies exaggeratedly, and walked towards the black-haired girl:
"Congratulations girl, the handsome noble young master is going to take you for a ride, please get in the car!"
Chang Le let out a "boom" in his head, could it be that this girl who resembles Xue Ying really wants to face what happened to Xue Ying's sister? He thought that the young master would not dare to go too far in front of the public, but he didn't expect the young master to order the girl to be "taken for a ride"!
Chang Le clenched in his heart, he couldn't see such a thing happen again no matter what!
It's just that he doesn't know how to stop it, the young master has already given an order, is there still a way for him to help this girl escape? It's impossible! The young master is a cultivator, even if he pulls out the dagger, he won't be his opponent!
"What can I do?"
At this moment, Chang Le felt as if he had lost his body, leaving only a wisp of consciousness floating in the air, rushing out again and again in his thoughts to do something, but his two feet couldn't move a step.
He is not afraid, but he can't be stupid enough to rush forward and force it, not only will he not be able to save people, but he will also put himself on the hook, and he will lose the opportunity to stay with the young master and wait for the opportunity to assassinate.
At this time, the foreman with two subordinates had already walked two or three meters in front of the girl. After hesitation, "No. 3" also ran over to join them, this person has a good heart, but he is more timid and cowardly, and he does not dare to disobey the young master's orders.
Anyone with a normal mind can see that the young master and a few evil servants have absolutely bad intentions. But the black-haired girl looked calm, not only did she not run away, but instead looked at a few people with her arms in her arms, looking like she had nothing to do with herself.
Is this girl born stupid or greedy for vanity? She certainly doesn't know the true meaning of "for a ride", maybe she really plans to travel with the noble young master, and she can't imagine what fate awaits her!
Chang Le was anxious for her, but he couldn't remind her. In fact, it's useless to remind, even if the girl turns around and runs away at this time, how can a woman outrun a few big men?
The only way to save her is to rush over and grab the foreman, and then entangle the other three to make the girl run quickly. As a nobleman, it is always difficult for the young master to jump out of the carriage to personally arrest people, and chase the girl in front of countless commoners, which damages the reputation of the baron's family.
However, the cost of Chang Le's coming forward to save people is also obvious, and his fate is difficult to predict, and he may be beaten to death by the young master.
Chang Le didn't want to die yet, at least he didn't want to die in front of Young Master Taylor. However, could it be that he just watched this girl who looked like a snow firefly being killed?
Chang Le looked around for help, and there were already more than a dozen people who stopped to watch, but they were just watching the excitement, and none of them showed signs of wanting to meddle.
"To be a real man, you can be kind, not weak. Xue Ying told him before his death, and at this time, Chang Le's heart came to mind.
"Sister, I'm a real man, but what should I do?"
Chang Le's hand gripped the wooden frame of the roof tightly, almost crushing it.
The black-haired girl glanced at Young Master Taylor's group and looked at Chang Le for a few more seconds.
Because of Chang Le's delicate appearance, it is very common for the opposite sex to turn back and look at him again after the eyes of the opposite sex are swept away. But now the look of the black-haired girl makes him feel that this is Xue Ying's gaze, looking forward to his transformation from a boy to a man!
"Can't go with them!"
Chang Le trembled inexplicably and strongly, and then a hot current rushed all over his body, and he no longer had the slightest concern, he jumped off the pedal with a roar, his feet were as fast as the wind, and he instantly rushed to the front of the girl, twisted his body violently, and opened his arms to the foreman to block it.
When he spoke again, he turned his head and shouted to the black-haired girl behind him:
"Sister, run, don't stop, run with all your might!"
The black-haired girl was stunned: "Sister, who is your sister?"
The evil servants were also stunned, obviously they couldn't believe that it was Chang Le who jumped out in front of them to stop him! Chang Le, who had always been unable to fight back or scold, was delicate and docile! But this girl looked like Xue Ying, and she was not really Xue Ying, what kind of life did he fight?
The foreman quickly figured out what he thought was the answer:
"As soon as Xue Ying dies, this kid is crazy!"
The strong foreman pulled his sleeves up, his muscular arms exposed, and then suddenly quickened his pace, a sign that he was about to do something.
Chang Le tried to stay calm, staring into the eyes of the foreman and launching a psychological offensive:
"Big brother! This girl is a civilian, we are untouchables, and untouchables are guilty of hurting civilians! What does the young master want to do and let him do it himself, we can't do it!"
He didn't think that a word could stop the few people in front of him, and he just spoke to delay time and let the girl run away.
The foreman hesitated a little when he heard this, and turned back to look at the carriage.
"Big brother!" Chang Le chased after the victory, "If you do too many bad things, you will still be a pariah if you are reincarnated! You don't want to be a pariah in the next life, do you?"
At this time, Master Taylor leaned out of the car window and shouted:
"Don't say you're pariahs, even if it's my dog, whoever I tell you to bite, you have to bite whomever you want!"
"Yes, young master!"
The foreman replied loudly, and the rest of the evil servants did not hesitate, there was no reason to talk at this time, there was no choice but to carry out the young master's orders.
The young master added: "Kill this traitor first, and then arrest that woman!"
"Yes, kill this little bastard!" the foreman replied, striding and punching.
Chang Le glanced back at this time, and found that the girl in black was still in place, and did not listen to his words, "Run, run with all your might", and couldn't help but be anxious, and shouted to her:
"Are you stupid? Run, they're going to kill you!"
At the same time, the foreman's bowl-sized fist also slammed into Chang Le's face.
Chang Le only felt that the sky and the earth suddenly went dark, his head "buzzed", and his body spun and fell.
