Chapter 185: Self-Imprisonment
The doors and windows of the room were closed, and a candle was burning on the candlestick.
The firelight was dim and dim, and a cool breeze came out of which crevice, licking the flames and swaying constantly, and lining Fu Jiuqu's face flickering, handsome and almost distorted.
Therefore, the story came out of his mouth, adding a bit of paradoxical color.
That fox girl, in fact, has nothing to do with the fox demon or the fox.
However, her surname is Hu, she is from the country of Zhenla, and she is the holy daughter of the country of Zhenla.
In that country, the saint has a strong religious color, but the saint not only cannot maintain true holiness and purity, but will even secretly become the plaything of a group of people who are in charge of the sect.
Hu Man's mother was also a saint, she had no father, but she was not willing to die with hatred like her mother. Since she was a child, she was clever and intelligent, secretly followed a monk in the temple to practice martial arts, and planned to exercise her body, and finally waited for an opportunity at the age of sixteen.
She disguised herself and blended into the team of Zhenla transporting spices, and came to the Great Song Dynasty Tokyo.
The prosperity of the capital fascinated Hu Man's eyes, she liked everything here, loved this place with almost surprise and adoration, and she tried hard to survive in Bianjing City......
However, she didn't speak the language and was good at nothing.
It was at this time that Hu Man met Du Zhongqing, and the reason was a box of incense.
Spices are the main source of foreign trade income for Chenla, and in the temple where Hu Man is located, the monks also make incense. It is not yet popular in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is also a rare thing in the holy temple of Zhenla Kingdom.
Hu Man brought a box of tuk yi, she would use tuk yi incense clothes every day to nourish her limbs, which attracted Du Zhongqing's attention, but she didn't want Du Zhongqing to know the secret of her origin in Zhenla, and she never told him the truth.
Du Zhongqing fell in love with incense and fell in love with her, and similarly, Hu Man also fell madly in love with the young owner who was crazy about making incense.
The two fell in love with each other, and Du Zhongqing took Hu Man to Du's house to pick incense. On the surface, she is a female worker who makes incense, but secretly she is a good friend of the young owner. The two of them frowned, and soon crossed the thunder pool.
However, Du Zhongqing is very sluggish, he really thought that Du Yun was Hu Man's own body fragrance, and since then he has devoted himself to studying how to refine the body fragrance on her body, as well as the method of making women produce body fragrance-
This fragrant nerd is obsessed with this, day and night, and never gets tired of it.
Thus ignoring everything around him, and also ignoring Hu Man.
What he didn't know was that his later owner, Shi Tang, had his eyes on him, who knew how to make incense, and also on the beautiful interracial girl Hu Man with body fragrance.
In order to get Hu Man, and at the same time let Du Zhongqing use it for himself, Shi Tang can be said to have tried his best-
A series of strange incidents that occurred at the Du family's incense shop at that time, what kind of man bought incense and met a fox demon in the middle of the night, all came from Shi Tang's handwriting.
In order to achieve the goal, Shi Tang divided, blamed, killed people and set fires, and did everything he could.
He made the second elder of the Du family think that Du Zhongqing was bewitched by Hu Man, a demon girl of unknown origin, regardless of the shop's livelihood, obsessed with refining the girl's body fragrance, which was not doing his job properly and acting recklessly, so he drove Hu Man out, causing a rift between father and son......
Du Zhongqing fell out with his father because of this, and his parents were angry, Shi Tang took the opportunity to kill the Du family and his wife, successfully brought down the Du family's incense shop, and made Du Zhongqing mistakenly think that he was angry with his father......
Du Zhongqing learned of the death of his parents on the day he found Hu Man.
At that time, he saw Hu Man and other men entangled on the couch, untouched.
The death of his parents and Hu Man's betrayal made Du Zhongqing look crazy.
In anger, he used a self-developed incense to stun the two, imprisoned them in the underground incense storage room of Du's incense shop, killed the "adulterer" with the most cruel means, and made him into a dried corpse with incense, but still did not understand the hatred, and destroyed Hu Man's appearance and body......
Since then, the incense on Hu Man's body has disappeared.
Du Zhongqing tortured Hu Man, and also tortured himself to the point of insanity. But he did not forget the smell of that incense, and spent his whole life looking for the smell of that incense, and tried to refine it, and then turn Hu Man into the original taste......
Spices are extremely expensive things, after the Du family's incense shop closed, Du Zhongqing's life was stretched, it was difficult to continue, and there was no money to maintain the cost of making incense, so he had to be hired by Shi Tang, and since then he has become Shi Tang's "genius incense maker......
Hu Man had been living in the incense storage room of the deserted courtyard next door.
Du Zhongqing sometimes loves her very much, and sometimes tortures her fiercely.
Over and over again.
After a long time, both of them have sunk into this whirlpool of love and hate, and they can't tell whether they love genuinely or hate in their hearts, but it seems that no one can do without anyone. Slowly, Du Zhongqing's supervision of Hu Man is no longer as strict as before, but she is allowed to enter and leave the incense storage room, and often does not control her because she is obsessed with making incense. Hu Man has gradually become accustomed to this kind of life, and she has nowhere to go, and she has long been imprisoned by her own heart......
"So, there has never been a fox demon in the world, only a tragic experience of a woman surnamed Hu?"
Xin Yi sighed softly, and the tongue of fire in his eyes was shaking slightly.
"However, how did the county king know so many details?"
Fu Jiuqu glanced at her: "Hu Man said it himself." ”
Xin Yi stared at him incomprehensibly, refusing to believe it, "Don't coax me, the king of the county." She was mute and couldn't speak. ”
Fu Jiuqu narrowed his eyes, chuckled and asked, "Who told you that she is dumb?" ”
Xin Yi was stunned.
The plot is set like this, can she say it?
Xin Yi said: "In the story of that fox demon, isn't that what it says? ”
Fu Jiuqu's eyebrows raised, "Why was my sister-in-law so sure that the story of the fox demon was true in the first place?" Even know so many rumored details that don't exist? ”
Finished!
Xin Yi's heart was pounding, and his fingers couldn't help but curl up.
"Anyway, I heard it, whether it was Aunt Li or not, I'm not sure...... The king of the county will say it directly, is she dumb or not? ”
Xin Yi has always been more concerned about the authenticity and fit of the plot, and his eyes are staring at him, very curious.
Fu Jiuqu glanced at her scratching fingers, and the corners of her lips curved slightly.
"That's right, she's dumb. But not inherently mute. ”
He stared at Xin Yi's eyes, a little uncertain. After a moment's hesitation, he spoke again, but his voice was a little darker.
"Du Zhongqing was afraid that her screams would attract the attention of others, and poisoned her......"
"Then she is dumb, how did she tell the county king these things?"
Xin Yi can be regarded as catching Fu Jiuqu's little tail, looking like he is looking for the roots, which caused Fu Jiuqu to chuckle, "She can write." ”
"Write?" Xin Yi looked at him puzzled, "Isn't she a real person?" Can you write kanji? ”
Fu Jiuqu glanced at her and said lightly, "I can't write Chinese characters, but I can listen to Chinese and write real characters." It wasn't difficult for me to find a translator from Zhanyunkan. ”
It sounded reasonable, but Xin Yi still felt that the answer was too easy and a little incredible.
"No matter how I asked her before, she ignored it, how did the county king convince her to tell you the truth?"
