Chapter 64: The Queen in the Cage
"Thank you," said the maid, in the tone of a superior to a subordinate, "you can go." He waved his hand casually, completely treating Ling Tian as a subordinate. A black line appeared on his forehead, and the corner of Ling Tian's eyes twitched and said, "This is what you fell." With that, the maid had already taken the sheet from Ling Tian's hand.
"Well, thanks to you for bringing it up. Nodding with satisfaction, the maid seemed to suddenly remember something, and said suspiciously, "I haven't seen you, report your name and identity." I don't understand why a maid would dare to order others in such a tone, but Ling Tian had something to ask for a while, so he could only endure the unhappiness in his heart and say, "Ling Tian, I am Sistina's cousin. ”
"It's strange why I haven't heard that Sistina has a younger brother, if so, why do I look at you so much? Tell me honestly, who are you!" the maid didn't believe it at all after hearing Ling Tian's answer again. In this regard, Ling Tian could only continue to explain, "Today is the first day I have come to the palace, and I usually usually stay in Sistina's manor, and I rarely come out. ”
"Is that so?" muttered the maid, believing Ling Tian's words. A gentle breeze blows through the roof, and the wide roof is lined with countless bamboo poles on which a large number of clothes and bed sheets are dried. Bathed in the sun, it is dazzlingly white. "This is here?" Ling Tian said knowingly. "Don't you seem to know? This is a place to dry clothes. The maid looked at Ling Tian with an idiot look, Ling Tian didn't care, and continued to talk.
"Well, I know, but I'm curious why I'm here. "Because there's plenty of light here. Still no information...... "Do you know what the next room is for? You know, it's my first time here." Asked casually, the maid frowned, and replied disinterestedly, "Empty room." ”
She's lying!Although the maid's expression didn't change, Ling Tian, who had a heart, still noticed that her eyes flickered, and her answer didn't quite match the guard's. That's right, the current Ling Tian was next to the room where entry was forbidden. The meaning of the forbidden entry in the guard's mouth was obviously something, and the maid's mouth was an empty room, these two answers were so inconsistent, which made Ling Tian not doubt it.
As for why Ling Tian thought that the maid was not referring to the room on the other side, it was because Ling Tian had already gone to see that room, it was a very ordinary warehouse where food was stored, if the maid answered truthfully, Ling Tian would naturally not suspect anything, nor would she delve into it, but her answer was obviously hiding something.
Still replied casually, "Then take me to see it." The maid's pupils shrank, and although she had concealed it well, Ling Tian still caught that hint of hesitation and regret. This made Ling Tian's curiosity even greater, and he couldn't wait to know the secrets in that room.
"No! it's just an empty room anyway, there's no need to go" The maid rejected Ling Tian in the same tone as before, but as everyone knows, her words revealed her intentions even more. Obviously, there was definitely something unsightly in that room. However, if Ling Tian continued to ask, it would definitely arouse suspicion, and it would be a pity if he gave up.
After a slight hesitation, Ling Tian decided to take the maid away first, and sneaked in by himself for a while. "If it's okay, you can leave. The maid ordered. Ling Tian raised his eyebrows, ignoring the maid's words, and directly retorted, "Is this how you treat the nobles, you are obviously a servant but you are so crazy, it's really a shame that you can work in the palace" "Servant?" The maid highlighted her shocked expression, subconsciously looked at her dress, and 'poof', but suddenly laughed.
"Do you say I'm a servant?" the maid said knowingly, Ling Tian nodded and replied, "If it's not a maid, what else can it be?" A touch of red flew on her face, and the maid laughed happily, "Huh...... Hehehe, no, yes. That's right, I'm a servant, no matter how you look at it. With a casual wave of her hand, the maid turned away with her inexplicable smile, leaving only a confused Ling Tian.
"Could it be that she has the same mental problems as that Phil?" it seems to be" With a shudder, Ling Tian decided to stay away from this kind of person in the future.
......
"Strange, if it's forbidden, why are there neither guards nor locks. Is it to hide people's eyes and ears from attracting attention?" Walking to the room where entry was forbidden, Ling Tian stopped and looked at the defenseless space around him suspiciously.
"No matter how much, let's go first and have a look" Ling Tian made a decision in his heart, but he didn't know that if he didn't push open the door, he wouldn't have so much trouble in the future. Many years later, when Ling Tian recalled this incident, the complexity in his heart was also difficult to express.
Beautiful, so beautiful, it's hard to describe in words.
The white and full skin set off by the purple and white-edged dress, and the pearl necklace with the luster of mutton fat and jade are not luxurious at all, just to set off the elegant neck like a swan. Long pink hair can reach the crook of the legs, and it is not the length that is amazing, but the color that is colorful. Most of her hair is pinkish-white, but the ends are amethyst purple, and the top is pale grayish-purple. If you look closely, you can see that there are four colors of her hair, amethyst purple, pink white, light gray purple and peach pink.
The sun shines down, and it gives people a dreamlike unreality. Elegant and noble, cold and indifferent, it is hard to imagine that there is such a beautiful girl in the world. But she is such a beautiful girl, but there is always a melancholy on her face that is difficult for outsiders to understand. Her ruby starry eyes were dim because ...... She was in captivity.
A dark golden cage towered in the middle of the room, and the beautiful maiden sat in it as if she had lost her soul. The black bow hair ornament fell to the side, leaving only a dark purple ribbon to wrap up the incredible color. Her hands were casually on the plump thighs, and the snow-white and delicate wrists under the white silk gloves inlaid with blue gold silk were also imprisoned by chains, so to speak, she only had the right to walk around in the cage......
The long, pointed ears already fully explained the fact that she was not human, maybe she was a blood clan, maybe she was a nightmare, or even an elf like Ling Tian. But it didn't matter, the important thing was that Ling Tian was angry now, such a weak delicate body was restrained, and then treated like a puppet. The wind is no longer free, so is it still the wind?
"Who are you?Is it time to eat?" The sweet and pleasant voice sounded like a yellow warbler out of the valley, and Ling Tian finally recovered from the girl's beautiful face. Looking at the girl who was looking at him with curious eyes, Ling Tian couldn't help but feel ashamed of herself, she was so beautiful, so beautiful that people couldn't bear to blaspheme, Ling Tian didn't know how to answer the girl in front of him at all, he could only stand there stunned.
Seeing that Ling Tian didn't answer himself, thinking that something had happened to Ling Tian, he asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" Shaking his head, Ling Tian couldn't bear to say, "I'm fine, it's not time to eat." Ling Tian really didn't know what to say to this girl, because Ling Tian was afraid, afraid that his unintentional actions or words would hurt this girl who was like a puppet.
"That's good, if you're hurt, don't bear it," Seeing that Ling Tian seemed to be fine, the girl patted her chest, looking very happy, but immediately fell silent. "It's not dinner time. Said disappointedly, a trace of loneliness flashed in the girl's eyes. "Then what are you here for?" quickly hid the loneliness, and the girl tilted her head and asked with some expectation.
Normally, she would only see people when she was eating, but now that Ling Tian suddenly appeared in front of her, the girl naturally wanted to ask about Ling Tian's purpose. "I, I ......" Looking at the anticipation in the girl's eyes, Ling Tian's words came to his mouth and swallowed back, and after a deep groan, a kind smile appeared on Ling Tian's face, "I'm here to see you." For some reason, Ling Tian just didn't want the girl in front of him to be sad, so he also said this.
Sure enough, after hearing Ling Tian's purpose, the girl looked very excited, "Oh? really? Then you should know who I am" but soon, the girl gave Ling Tian a problem. This was the first time Ling Tian and the girl had met, how could they know their names and identities.
With a hint of embarrassment on his face, Ling Tian turned around embarrassedly, and as soon as he turned around, Ling Tian froze. What about the door? What about the door? What about the door that was good just now? Yes, it was only for such a short time, and the door disappeared......
Looking at the flustered Ling Tian, the girl chuckled and said, "I think, you should have broken in by mistake or someone like an intruder." His body shook slightly, Ling Tian smiled bitterly and said nothing. Seeing Ling Tian's appearance, the girl didn't say anything threatening or bad, but comforted Ling Tian calmly, "Little guy, don't worry, as long as it's time to eat, someone will naturally come and let you out." ”
As everyone knows, the girl's comfort made Ling Tian's heart even colder, he had already lurked in, how could he go out at that time. "Is there no other way?" Since he couldn't find the door, Ling Tian simply stopped looking for it, and sat directly in front of the cage, asking the girl.
"Of course, in short, this room is a special magic array, the kind that is specially used to imprison people. Eating and smiling, the girl said indifferently. At this moment, Ling Tian finally understood why there were no guards here, because there was no need for this place at all! Just imagine, a room that is allowed to enter but not to leave, if it were you, what would it be like to come in.
Headache, Ling Tian really felt a headache, he didn't expect to let himself fall into this situation because of his curiosity, but, then again, if it wasn't for curiosity, he wouldn't have seen this girl, let alone talked so peacefully like now.
