Chapter 5: The Man Who Reads

"Don't do this, don't do that. This stone room is only a small area, and with you supervising it, I can't do anything. Besides, don't you have a miracle doctor? Even if I wanted to die, I couldn't die, and in the end I would die and suffer by myself. Do you think that's the reason? ”

Nalan Xin's words seemed to make sense, and the maid couldn't find the words to refute for a while, and said, "Okay, Nalan girl, you bathe by yourself, I'm on the side." I'll call you every half a burnt of incense, and if you don't respond, I'll rush over immediately. ”

The maidservant knew that Nalan Xin hadn't really bathed for a long time, and she didn't know how long Nalan Xin would soak in this bath, so she could only call her every once in a while.

"Well, got it, got it!"

Nalan Xin responded with a smile, she waved her left hand, and motioned for the maid to go away as soon as possible.

The maidservant sat on a chair in the corner of the wall, but her eyes kept staring at the screen, although she couldn't see Nalan Xin's every move inside, as long as there was a sound, it meant that Nalan Xin had nothing to do for the time being.

The lives of these handmaidens and the black-clothed messengers guarding outside were all tied to Nalan Xin's alone.

The sect master once said that as long as Nalan Xin died, they all had to be buried together.

Through the screen, Nalan Xin took off her clothes, and her whole body was covered with large and small scars, which was shocking.

When Nalan Xin entered the bathtub and her upper body was over the water, the heat from the warm water made her whole body relax.

Although the weather was hot, Nalan Xin's body couldn't withstand too much tossing, and he couldn't bathe in cold water, so he could only switch to warm water with a temperature similar to his skin, which the sect master was still very careful.

When Nalan Xin was sure that the maid had been sitting on a chair in the corner, she took out the bloody veil and rubbed it vigorously in the water, trying to wash the blood off the veil.

But this rubbing time was a bit long, and the movement was a bit big, and the maid couldn't help but speak: "Miss Nalan, are you okay?" ”

"No... Not... What's up! It's just that I haven't bathed for too long, and my body is covered in dirt, and I'm scrubbing hard. Nalan Xin hurriedly put the handkerchief at the bottom of the bathtub and stepped on it with his foot to prevent the maid from making a surprise attack, and came to investigate the situation and found clues.

"Rubbing the shower? What do you do with such great energy, then you can't rub the skin! The maidservant shook her head helplessly, but as long as Nalan Xin didn't have an accident, she would take care of the rest.

For a long time, there was no movement of the maidservant coming, Nalan Xin picked up the handkerchief again and rubbed it.

Knead!

Knead!

Nalan Xin wasted a lot of energy, and finally washed the blood stains off the veil.

Next, Nalan Xin really enjoyed a leisurely bathing time.

Nalan Xin bathed for a long time, and the maid who was watching on the side didn't dare to call her or make a sound.

Because the sect master's attitude towards Nalan Xin is very strange, although he imprisoned Nalan Xin, he spent a very large price to save her and did not allow her to die.

As soon as Nalan Xin mentioned that she wanted to take a bath, the sect master immediately promised her that she had everything she needed.

Just imagine, which prisoner in the Phaseless God Sect can have such treatment!

If it weren't for knowing the sect master's ruthless and loving nature, the subordinates would have thought that the sect master had other thoughts about Nalan Xin.

After a long time, Nalan Xin finally finished bathing, she changed into clean clothes, and walked out from behind the screen.

"Miss Nalan, you're finally done bathing!" The maidservant sighed and said, she was impatient, but she didn't dare to urge.

"Hmm."

"Why do you have an extra handkerchief?" The maidservant wondered.

Nalan Xin raised the wet handkerchief on his hand and said, "This handkerchief was originally in the stone room, and I used it to rub it for a bath." ”

Hearing what Nalan Xin said, the maid smiled helplessly, and secretly muttered in her heart: I didn't expect that the daughter of a dignified general would have a hobby of rubbing baths, and the movement was so big. But Tianyuan Country is located in the south, and it is said that Jiangnan women's skin is as white as snow, delicate, and can be broken by blowing. How would a southern woman like to take a bath? It's incomprehensible! Also, the world is so big that there are no surprises. As the daughter of a small common man, how can she imagine the hobby of the daughter of a big family, let alone the daughter of the god of war?

The maidservant re-shackled Nalan Xin and went out of the stone room, asking the screen and bathtub to be removed.

The silence in the stone room returned to the past, and only Nalan Xin was left.

But Nalan Xin wasn't sure if the sect master was suspicious of him, because his actions just now were also full of loopholes.

Not long after leaving the secret passage, the sect master immediately arrived, it should have been something he sensed, otherwise there would not have been such a coincidence.

Forget it, it's useless to think too much!

What should come will always come, even if the sect master notices it?

Nalan Xin really couldn't think of what he could achieve as a prisoner: nothing more than a light punishment; At worst, he lost a bad life.

After bathing, wash away the dirt and wash away the "bad luck", it is very relaxed, very comfortable, Nalan Xin slept very sweetly that night, and slept until dawn.

The next day, Nalan Xin woke up early, was hot, sweaty, and had a dry mouth.

She walked over to the stone table, picked up the stone kettle, poured a glass of water, and drank it down.

"Ahh It's finally cooler! ”

Because he was too thirsty, Nalan Xin drank too quickly and too quickly, and the water in the cup slipped down the slit of his mouth and flowed down his neck to the collar.

Nalan Xin put down the stone water glass and raised his hands to wipe the water marks on his neck.

When her hand touched the necklace around her neck, her fingers stopped, and then her fingertips slowly slid down the necklace around her neck, until she touched the slightest coolness.

Nalan Xin lowered his head, picked up the turquoise ring on the necklace, showed a rare smile, and said to himself: "Fortunately, you are with me, you are the driving force for me to continue to support." 'Shiyan Gongzi', are you okay? ”

The face of "Shiyan Gongzi" appeared in front of Nalan Xin's eyes again and again, and the sentence of "Shiyan Gongzi": Wait for me, wait for me to return to Tianyuan Kingdom to see you.

This sentence has been lingering in Nalan Xin's ears.

At this moment, Qi Yunyan, who is far away in the Genting Kingdom, is also thinking about Nalan Xin and worrying about Nalan Xin's safety!

Nalan Xin, are you okay?

Qi Yunyan took out a delicate bag from his arms, opened it, and took out a tuft of hair from it, and a delicate red thread was tied to it.

That tuft of hair was when the two of them parted that day, and Nalan Xin gave it to the "Shiyan Prince" is now Qi Yunyan.

He carefully took the tuft of hair and looked at it, in a daze, in a daze, and from time to time let out a happy smirk, like a stupid son of a landlord's family.
