Section 547 Fear of the past
Although the fire was urgent not far away, King Kui still covered his mouth and sneered, "Although Li Jing's skin is good, it is still useful for me to keep her, and it will take some time now." ”
Tian Lingzi nodded, "I understand, you want to use her as bait to lure the Jade Flying Dragon to your hook." ”
King Kui shook his head, "Not only that, but there is another fish that is not too big or small to have taken the bait." This person got a suicide note in Yuan Lan's tomb, and now he has the mystery of Qi hidden on his body. ”
"What is Qi?" Tian Lingzi was a little confused when he heard this.
"It's a power that can make my martial arts go a long way, but at the same time, it will have a backlash on the body. "King Kui knows everything about this bosom lover.
"Oh!" Tian Lingzi vaguely understood, "Others are afraid of being eaten by Qi, but you are not afraid." Because any skin is just a piece of clothing to you. Before Qi can eat you back, you should have already abandoned this dress. ”
King Kui raised his chin slightly, looking quite conceited, "Yes, if you talk about the world's first-class martial arts, my 'human clothing technique' is even better than the Thousand Illusions, as for Wang Daozhi's wall entry skill, Fu Lingyun's infant cultivation skill and Jade Feilong's dripping water skill cannot be compared." ”
He then said: "It's a pity that the skin of that kid named Liu Yu is too turbid, dark and vulgar, and has no sense of beauty, if I wear that skin for many years, it will be unbearable!"
After that, he shook his head helplessly, "As long as I completely absorb the Qi in his body, I will immediately abandon his skin, and I will never wear it for even one more day." ”
"When are you going to do it?" asked Tian Lingzi.
After decades of getting along, he has a deep understanding of this Tang prince who has always admired him, and knows that once this person says something, he must have made all plans.
"Right now, I've laid an ambush for the best of the dead, just waiting for him to show up. A sneer appeared at the corner of King Kui's mouth, and his handsome face was like a cage of frost.
"But I only saw these terrified eunuchs and palace maids, but I didn't see any of the dead. Tian Lingzi disagreed after hearing this, and secretly thought that King Kui did not tell him the truth.
The fire in the garden is burning more and more, and it has the potential to reach the sky. Those slaves and palace maids couldn't hold on anymore in fright, and once again rushed in the direction of the peony flower sea.
King Kui stood up from Tian Lingzi's wheelchair, his jade hand pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist slightly, and a pair of phoenix eyes narrowed into a line.
Tian Lingzi could see that this was a murderous look. But if King Kui has such a look on his face, it will be bloodied all over the ground.
He wanted to intercede for the fleeing people, but the fear in his heart lingered like a cloud.
He still remembered that the last time he pleaded with King Kui was twenty years ago, when he was still young, locked in Huaqing Pool by King Kui, and the whole person was miserable.
The lakes and mountains in Huaqing Pond are just another poison to promote old age. He had a hunch that he might have to spend the rest of his dark life here.
King Kui did not allow anyone to speak to him, otherwise he would be killed, except for only one palace maid who was specially sent to serve him.
The palace maid has a flat posture, a clumsy mouth, and walks in a strange posture like a wooden stake moving. But anyone who is a bit of a casual and leisurely literati is never interested in such a woman.
Perhaps it is for this reason that King Kui sent her to serve him. He got along with the palace maid for a long time, and gradually found that although she was wooden, she was kind-hearted. After she finished her own work every day, she would quietly hide in the corner of the side and recite the scriptures, sometimes for half an hour before coming out.
She usually only eats vegetarian food, walks on tiptoe, and is reluctant to trample even an ant on the ground.
He was bored, so he joked with the other party, "I finally know why you walk so strangely, how can you walk like this and even avoid the ants on the ground?"
The palace maid was so confused by him that her face was flushed with shame, and she quickly ran to the side with her strange posture, refusing to pay attention to him again. In the future, she did not hate him because of his teasing.
King Kui is usually very busy, and it is rare to come to visit him once in three or five days. Every time I come, I have to beg him for favor, and while talking, my two hands are not honest, reaching into his clothes and touching them. It's like she's really a little girl.
After coming and going, he was extremely upset about this, and regardless of the danger to his life, he launched a temper against this strange-minded and ruthless prince. King Kui was angry, and there was really less in the days that followed.
After that, he found that the daily meals served to him by the eunuchs became more and more monotonous, and the amount became less and less, and it was even difficult to satisfy his stomach. In the middle of the night, he was often woken up hungry and listened to the rumbling of his stomach until dawn.
He knew in his heart that King Kui wanted to use this method to convince him and make him submit. But despite the palace punishment, he is still a man who stands up to the sky, how can he be willing to be this person's plaything like this!?
Despite the difficult situation, he gritted his teeth and persevered. Even if King Kui asked someone to bring a message, saying that he would clean his uncompetitive younger brother Tian Lingwei and send him to the palace as a eunuch, he still did not let go.
The clumsy maid saw all this, secretly admired his character, and quietly wanted to give him her little food.
He refused to agree at first, but the maid insisted on giving it to him. The palace maid sat on the side sulking, and even squatted on the side of the wooden basin to wash his clothes, with big tears in her eyes.
He couldn't bear it, so he stuffed the food that the palace maid had given him into his mouth, and although the food was rough, it made him feel extremely sweet.
Seeing this, the palace maid burst into tears and laughed, twisting her head to the side, refusing to let him see her face.
Although he couldn't see it, he could still guess that her not beautiful face must be smiling like a flower at this moment.
Love inevitably arose between the two. He fell in love with this mediocre-looking palace maid, and the palace maid did not dislike him as a palace torturer, and always had the same heart with him.
The two made a private decision for life on a moonlit night, and vowed to escape from this prison called Huaqingchi and find a paradise to live their lives.
He told the palace maid that he would not seek fame and fortune in this life, and was only willing to weave with her men and women and help each other until he was old. The palace maid lowered her head, didn't speak for a long time, and shyly raised her small fist and smashed it lightly on his chest.
"Ouch!" he pretended to be in pain.
The palace maid immediately panicked, hurriedly rubbed him, and wanted to untie his clothes to check the injury.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but laugh, and after a few laughs, it became a laugh. Ever since he was trapped in Huaqing Pond, he had never smiled so cheerfully.
The palace maid was really angry when she saw this, and her two fists fell like raindrops......
It's a pity that this kind of good life didn't last long, and the private affairs between the two were soon discovered by other eunuchs and palace maids. Fearing responsibility, these men told King Kui.
To tell the truth, he had never seen King Kui so angry, and his whole face was distorted and deformed because of anger, which could be called thunderous.
The palace maid who was good with him was tied up and thrown on the cold stone floor, like a well-behaved kitten, and did not cry. Seeing this, he felt even more pity, but he felt powerless.
In order to save his beloved, he bowed his arrogant head to King Kui for the first time, kowtowing like pounding garlic.
But King Kui still did not agree to spare the palace maid, but cried and asked the eunuchs to carry her to the courtyard next door.
Soon after, he heard the roar of a fierce dog and the screaming of a woman. Soon, the woman's cry gradually faded, and then the sound of a fierce dog opening its mouth and burping was heard.
According to King Kui's original words, the palace maid is too ordinary to be used by him to make skins, so this disposal can be regarded as making the best use of things.
The last bit of warmth in his heart was destroyed by this cruel truth. He didn't want to grovel in front of this vicious prince anymore, and wanted to get up from the ground with tears in his eyes, but he was held down by King Kui, bending over and unable to stand up.
For the first time in his life, he cried and shouted: "Li Zi, you kill me, I don't want to be tortured like this again." ”
King Kui cried even more fiercely than him, his eyes were red, "Lingzi, you can't protect yourself, then I'll protect you." I swear that no woman will ever steal your heart from now on, and I hope you will not be sad for those vulgar women in the future, otherwise I will feel a lot of pain, all the way to the bone marrow. ”
He was hugged by King Kui, hugged in his arms, and sniffed the Rulan breath coming from the other party's body. This person has a beautiful face, and he is almost like the unsurprising prince he saw for the first time.
He watched King Kui crying as he slowly touched his two jade hands to his legs and knees, and soon, he heard the sound of his patella shattering, crisp and loud.
He fainted in pain and woke up in a wheelchair. The wheelchair is ornate and exquisite, and it is made of golden silk nanmu.
King Kui cried and told him that this was the best wheelchair in Chang'an City, which was priceless, and he would be left in Huaqing Pool forever to enjoy the best life and care, and the treatment was no different from that of the Tang Dynasty.
But he knew that he would be completely bound to this pile of wood for the rest of his life until he died.
What made him most memorable was what King Kui said, "Lingzi, when you ask me in the future, you should think twice about whether that person should be saved!"
After hearing this, his heart was dripping blood, of course he wanted to save the palace maid, but unfortunately he couldn't do anything. Now, looking at the palace maids and eunuchs in front of him who were fleeing because of the fire, he couldn't help but think of King Kui's words again, and a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He was wondering, should these people be saved? It was because of their informants that the palace maid he loved died tragically. Perhaps only when he saw them burned to ashes could some of the resentment in his heart disappear.
But he thought about it, if these people were really dead, the palace maid Jiuquan would definitely blame him after seeing him, after all, she used to be such a kind person, she was reluctant to kill even an ant.
Li ...... King Kui, please let them go, listen to me once, and let them live. Tian Lingzi grabbed King Kui's hand gripping the hilt of the sword.
After he said this, his body trembled involuntarily.
