The long hair floated beside him with the flowing water, and a lot of water poured into the undershirt, breaking open the collar to reveal the half-collarbone that had sunk inward.

Time passed slowly, and he remained motionless, his long eyelashes meekly drooping, his wrists reddened by chains, and the tips of his ten fingers slightly pinked.

The water level has dropped.

The surface of the water fell to Xie Yihuai's neck, and he slowly opened his eyes, and a few droplets of water rolled down from his eyelashes.

The water level was still dropping, stopping at Xie Yihuai's smooth waist and abdomen.

In an instant, the water level began to rise again, and as the water pressure increased, it continued to squeeze his body, continuously conveying the feeling of imminent suffocation.

When the water level was not too much again, Xie Yihuai was in the water with his eyes open, staring at a certain place.

I saw a head poking into the water prison.

This person is Chu Hantang, who kicked the owner of Nanxue Mountain Villa into the pond not long ago.

When she found out where the water prison was, she climbed over the high wall and avoided the people guarding outside the water prison before entering.

Chu Hantang was afraid that there were also people guarding the water prison, so he didn't dare to show his face for a long time, so he poked his head out to look.

As soon as he saw that Xie Yihuai's whole body was submerged in water, Chu Hantang hurriedly ran over.

She looked at his tied wrists and tried to reach over, but couldn't reach until she got into the water and swam over again, climbing onto the boulder where the chains were dangling.

Chu Hantang couldn't see what was going on in the clear water, and was worried that Xie Yihuai would die like this.

"Little Master Xie?"

Xie Qihuai blinked lightly in the water, but she couldn't see it.

Chu Hantang also felt stupid, he was in the water, it was useless to shout, and he couldn't speak.

She was in a hurry to death, and scolded him a few words in her heart, with Xie Yihuai's strength, she could have escaped from those men, why should she be taken into the water prison by them to be tortured?

Deserve!

If it weren't for the plot point, I was afraid that he would die, otherwise she would definitely ignore him.

Chu Hantang thought angrily, and looked around distractedly, to see if he could find some tools that could get rid of the chains in his hands.

It doesn't seem right, if he wants to escape, he won't come back on his own initiative.

Chu Hantang's hand looking for something suddenly paused, and Xie Yihuai was now tied with his hands, looking like he had no strength to resist.

If you take the plot point at this time, will it be easy to complete it by giving him a knife?

It doesn't work either.

The system has not yet clearly answered where to stab a knife, in case it is wrong, with Xie Yihuai's reaction speed, there will be absolutely no chance to stab a second knife in the future.

Let's get him out of the water first.

Before the system responds to her, it is always right to have a good relationship with Xie Yihuai, so that you can approach him after learning about the request and successfully complete the plot point.

After all, if he was wary of her, it would be difficult for Chu Hantang to get close to him and stab him.

The water level went down, revealing Xie Xianghuai's dripping face, and he opened his eyes to look at her.

Chu Hantang was coldly looked at by this, and didn't know what expression to show for a while, and said in a small voice: "Xie, Xie Xiaogongzi, are you okay, do you want me to help you ......?"

Xie Yihuai knew what she wanted to say, and said bluntly: "No." ”

His eyes were brighter after being washed with water, and his tone was still smiling, "Why did you come here to find me?" Are you afraid of my death? ”

Chu Hantang nodded truthfully this time.

Xie Yihuai didn't feel surprised, as if he guessed that she would answer like this, his eyes and the corners of his mouth also bent, and he called her again inexplicably, "Xue Hantang." ”

The boy's voice was clear, and he listened as if he had been gently touched by a butterfly with its beautiful wings.

Chu Hantang took a step forward and squatted at the water's edge, "What's wrong?" ”

Xie Yihuai raised his eyes to look at her, "I'm hungry." ”

Chu Hantang, who thought he had heard it wrong, was slow for half a beat, and it was the first time he heard him say that he was hungry, and he used to say that he was not hungry, "Huh? Are you hungry? ”

He nodded, "Hmm." ”

Chu Hantang touched his whole body and smiled embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I took a shower and changed my clothes before I came, and I didn't even have the sugar I usually bring with me." ”

She still wanted to get rid of the chain in his hand first, "I'll get this off for you first." ”

Xie Yihuai shook his head, "I want to eat." ”

Chu Hantang had no choice but to rely on him, he couldn't let him go hungry, "Then I'll fill your stomach with food first, what do you want to eat?" ”

"Lotus root chips."

At this hour, where did she get lotus root chips for Xie Yihuai? Also picky eaters.

Is it okay to have two big steamed buns? Chu Hantang wanted to think so, but he didn't say it, but he agreed, "Okay, you're really fine." ”

Xie Ruhuai said "um" and said absentmindedly: "I'm used to it." ”

Chu Hantang stood up and thought back to where the kitchen of Nangong Mansion was, "I'll look for it now, and you'll wait here for me to come back." ”

After saying that, he looked worriedly at the water that rose again, not past his chest.

She left the water dungeon the same way she came, because the martial arts of this body were not bad, and she was quite agile, and she did not alarm the people guarding outside from the time she came in to the time she went out.

The dungeon was quiet again.

Waiting for Chu Hantang to leave here, Xie Yihuai's wrist was forced, and he forcibly broke away from the iron chain above, and the flesh and blood on his hands were blurred, and even bones were visible.

But he turned a blind eye, came out of the water, sat down on the ground, and twisted the water at the hem of his clothes casually, letting it crumple, and suddenly laughed as if he thought of something funny.

The laughter spread outside, and the two guards of the water dungeon immediately came in to check.

When they saw that the chain was broken, they wanted to tell Mrs. Nangong, but at the moment they turned around, they were grabbed by the neck from behind, twisted it in a strange way, pinched it back, and then twisted it to the left.

"Where are you going?"

Xie Yihuai's voice sounded at the same time as the "click" sound of twisting his neck.

Without looking at the corpse on the ground, he lifted his legs and stepped over, picked up the red coat that was stacked aside, put it on, and went straight to the door of the water prison.

Chu Hantang ran to the kitchen, but no one was here at this hour, she opened one pot after another, only saw steamed buns, pastries, and a few plates of meat, but she didn't see lotus root slices.

There was only one pot left unopened.

She clasped her palms together and prayed, hoping to open the pot and see a plate of snow-white lotus roots.

It may be that God favored Xie Yihuai, and Chu Hantang saw a plate of lotus root chips.

The lotus root slices were originally eaten cold, without steaming, she reached out and picked up the lotus root slices in a beautiful plate, and trotted out of the kitchen.

Passing through the courtyard where the owner of Nanxue Mountain Villa lived, I heard the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground inside.

Chu Hantang's footsteps paused, holding the lotus root slices in his hand, and the ghost made a turn to enter, only to see the lights in the room and the door ajar.

With a "bang", a body slammed into the door, it was Meng Ye, who was called to protect the owner of Nanxue Mountain Villa tonight.

As soon as he saw him, Chu Hantang hurried over, "Meng Ye, you ......"

Before she could say the rest of the words, a stream of warm blood splashed on her clean face, and also splashed on the lotus root slices she was holding in both hands, and the blood stained the pure white and sweet lotus root one by one.

Meng Ye fell to the ground and couldn't get up, but the person was still alive for the time being.

The owner of Nanxue Mountain Villa was not so lucky, and the blood that splashed on Chu Hantang's body was his.

She seemed to froze.

Tick-tock, blood dripping down her jaw.

Xie Yihuai threw the long sword he snatched from Meng Ye's hand to the ground, with a "clang" sound, his delicate facial features were covered with blood beads, and he slowly raised his eyes and looked at the door.

When he came back this time, he was going to kill them all, and he didn't leave any of them, starting with the owner of Nanxue Mountain Villa.

Xie Yihuai's gaze swept over Chu Hantang's face, which was also full of blood, and then slid down, and finally stopped at the dish of lotus root that had turned red and white.

Meng Ye was so weak that he could only shout in a hoarse voice, "Xue Hantang, you, run." ”

"Go find Mrs. Nangong! Go ......."

Seeing that Chu Hantang was still standing still, Meng Ye couldn't help it, thinking that she was scared stupid.

I saw Xie Yihuai walking towards Chu Hantang step by step, because he was wearing red clothes, so even if there was blood splashed, he couldn't see clearly, only the exposed skin was stained.

He walked up to her.

Xie Yihuai raised his hand, took a piece of blood-stained lotus root, and put it in his mouth.

Then, his fingertips pressed down on her cheek, brushing off a bead of blood, he bent down, eye to eye with Chu Hantang, and smiled seemingly gently, "Scared you?" ”

Chapter 34: Archery

At this moment, the rest of Nangong Mansion is no different from before, in the dead of night, only the sound of insects is left, and the huge mansion seems to fall into a deep sleep with the arrival of night.

In a room covered with a huge velvet blanket, smoke from the incense burner slowly drifted out of the holes.

Scrolls hung on the walls, and curtains made of beads hung in mid-air, making intermittent clashing sounds when the wind blew in through the windows.

In front of the mirror sat a woman who had removed the tiaras from her hair one by one and placed them neatly in the box containing her jewelry.

But there was more than one person in the room.

Mrs. Nangong stared at the face in the mirror, her slender fingers lightly touched the slightly wrinkled eyelets, her nails pressed, she was in an impetuous mood, listening to her henchman's words, there was hidden impatience.

The henchman was asking Mrs. Nangong if she wanted to urge Xie Yihuai's sorcery to be planted early, afraid that his return this time would be unfavorable to her.

The witchcraft that Xie Yihuai planted when he was young only works on the night of the full moon.

It was also because of the witchcraft she planted on him that Mrs. Nangong spared his life, knowing that this person would always be under his control.

As long as Xie Yihuai wants to unravel the witchcraft on his body one day, he will not dare to mess with her one day.

Not to mention......

Mrs. Nangong turned her head and glanced at the man sitting on the bed reading a book, no matter what, Xie Qihuai seemed to have to survive.

The henchman followed her line of sight and saw that the man didn't seem to pay attention to them at all.
