Chapter 225: The City of Darkness

On the vast sea, a lonely boat is swaying in the wind and waves. The undulating waves pushed the boat high again and again, and the boat couldn't help but toss like this. It seems that it may be overturned by the waves at any time and disappear into this ocean.

The sky was full of dark clouds, and between the gaps in the thick black clouds burst out of white light, and thunder roared, like thousands of troops marching on the earth. Thunder and lightning erupted, wind and rain raged, and the boat was pushed into the air by a fierce wave. A bolt of lightning flew out of the clouds, clicked, and struck the boat, which caught fire and scattered into countless fragments on the sea.

Xiao Yunfan felt himself sinking into the sea like the boat, he could neither make a sound in his mouth, nor could he exert the strength to struggle in his limbs. Let the water flow little by little over his neck, chin, nostrils, eyes, and the top of his head.

In front of him, there was a series of bubbles. The bubbles changed from more to less, and finally gradually disappeared. He felt that he had become lighter, as light as a feather, until he had fallen into the darkness. In the darkness, he suddenly saw many small round spots of light. Little by little, the spot grew bigger and clearer.

In the midst of all the brilliance, a giant dragon appeared. The dragon's massive head swayed from side to side, its eyes like brass bells. The dragon stared at himself, and he himself stared at the dragon. The dragon's bloody mouth, its sharp fangs, its long red whiskers, its golden scales, everything was so clear and real.

The dragon made a low sound, but Xiao Yunfan couldn't understand what he was talking about. The dragon shook its head, turned, and vanished into the darkness with unmatched speed. This dream, he seems to have done it countless times since he was a child, but there seems to be no shock in these countless times.

He sat up suddenly, sweating profusely from his forehead. At this time, a pair of eyes were looking at him. The owner of the eyes asked coldly, "Who are you, and what is your name?" The voice was cold, as cold as moonlight. Xiao Yunfan saw that the other party was wearing a veil, and only showed a pair of eyes. These eyes are very beautiful, very charming, but also very strange.

Looking at this, he was at a loss in his heart, and he didn't know how to answer the other party, because at this time, his mind was blank and he couldn't remember anything.

It was a rainy night. The mysterious boy Aaron and his companions brought him to their master. Xiao Yunfan was unconscious and had a high fever. It was the mysterious woman in front of him who fed him a decoction, and his high fever finally subsided and he slowly woke up. Although he woke up, his head ached when he remembered what had happened.

Seeing his painful expression, the woman smiled and said, "You were picked up by Ah Long, he is my slave, and you are naturally my slave." Xiao Yunfan only felt a flustered heart and said, "Water, I want to drink water." The woman raised a hand, and her attendant immediately handed over a bowl of water. The woman picked up the water bowl and personally delivered it to Xiao Yunfan.

Xiao Yunfan didn't ask, picked up the water and drank it up. I asked for four or five bowls in a row before I stopped, and then said, "Rice, I want to eat." The woman beckoned again, and the attendant immediately brought a mahogany lacquered plate with a bowl of rice and a plate of green vegetables and tofu.

He devoured what he ate, and the woman looked at him. Youyou said: "What's your name?" Xiao Yunfan raised his head and shook his head, "I forgot." There was a faint sigh under the veil, and she said: "It's good to forget, there are many unsatisfactory things in life, and it is best to forget." ”

Xiao Yunfan's simple words seemed to evoke some kind of memory in her, and that memory seemed to be painful. He wiped his mouth after eating, looked at the other party, and boldly asked, "Who are you, and what is your name?" As soon as he finished speaking, the black-clothed messenger behind the woman scolded loudly: "Shut up, you are just a slave, and you deserve to know the name of your master?"

The veiled woman raised her hand to signal that her subordinates didn't need to say much, she looked at Xiao Yunfan and said, "You just need to remember that I am your master, your life was saved by me, and you must serve me." Just remember the words Mrs. Rose. Nothing else matters to you. ”

Madame Rose paused, then said, "You may have had a name before, but you forgot it yourself. You are now my slave, why don't I give you a name, Madame, and you will be called Feng Chen. ”

Xiao Yunfan muttered, "Seal the dust." ”

Madame Rose nodded, "Yes, remember." With that, she stood up, her delicate curves wrapped in a purple gold-trimmed cloak. Xiao Yunfan closed his eyes and asked, "Who was I before?"

"It doesn't matter who you used to be," said Madame Rose, "because you came here like a dead man. No one knows about your past, and you'd better not ask about anyone else's past.

You are my slave, do you have to understand one thing to be my slave?" Xiao Yunfan asked, "What's the matter?" Mrs. Rose said, "Here, rely on your ability to eat." Only those who have the ability are qualified to eat, and those who are not capable are not even qualified to eat. "Courier

Xiao Yunfan said, "What are you talking about here?" Lady Rose smiled: "This is the Dark City, a city-state built underground. And the rules of the earth don't work here. ”

Xiao Yunfan said: "My name is Feng Chen. You saved my life, and I am your slave. And Madame, what do you want me to do?" said Madame Rose, "I have given you the water you want, and I have also given you the food you want, I hope you will behave well tonight." ”

Saying that her slender figure disappeared behind an iron door, Xiao Yunfan was confused in his heart, he couldn't remember anything, and the thing he was thinking about at this moment was naturally this lady's matter. What does it mean that she lets herself behave well?

In the dark and damp cell, the oil lamp in the niche emitted a blue-white light, which really looked like a hellfire. Xiao Yunfan was lying on the firewood and grass, with heavy shackles on his wrists and ankles. He didn't pay much attention to these things, because after a person had eaten comfortably, his whole body was warm, as if he was bathed in a piece of sunshine.

Madame Rose took off her cloak, and the maid Sonya took it and hung it on the antlers on the wall. This Lady Rose is actually Siamese. [The so-called Siam is China's ancient name for Thailand and Southeast Asian countries. Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, canonized the Ayutthaya King of the Ayutthaya Dynasty as the "King of Siam", and the word Siam was fixed. 】

Madame Rose's original name was Songxi, she was sold as a slave to the Ming Dynasty, and then by chance came to the dark capital, and after being appreciated by her master, she actually became a hegemon. There are four forces in the Dark City, and these four forces contain each other but at the same time obey the masters behind them.

Madame Rose sat down, and a black-faced and gray-haired kitten jumped into her arms. This Siamese cat is kept only in the royal palace and monasteries and is extremely valuable. Mrs. Rose stretched out her hand and touched the cat's back and said, "Sonya, tonight's Douyuan Meeting, who will Nancheng send?"

The maid said slowly: "Mrs. Huiyu, it is said that they will send the Black Fist Ring to buy masters like Iron Fist, Wild Boar King, and Purple Swallow at a high price, and we will not have much chance of winning." Mrs. Rose said hatefully: "We have only won two games in the past four months, and if this continues, Mrs. I will lose all the gold baht I voted!"

Sonya said with an embarrassed face: "But madam, the Thunder Emperor has already bought all these many masters. If we want to poach people from him, don't we have to pay a higher price? You also know that with the mind of the Thunder Emperor, how can the master he poached be willing to sell to us? Our deer swordsman has made them suffer before. They finally gained the upper hand this time, how could they give up this opportunity to be in the limelight?"

Madame Rose removed her veil and revealed a beautiful face. She picked up a glass of wine and took a small sip. Xiu Mei frowned slightly and said: "So far, I can only let Ah Long and them come to the top." If the top 32 can't occupy six places, then all the money invested in the front will be wasted. ”

Sonya bit her lip and said, "Madame didn't plan to let this kid named Feng Chen appear tonight?, but this kid has just recovered from a serious illness, can he do it?" Mrs. Rose thought for a while and said, "Of course, let's use the method of Tian Ji horse racing to deal with the three teams of the Thunder Emperor." Sonya said: "Tian Ji horse racing?"

Lady Rose said, "Not bad. Didn't you say that the three teams of the Thunder Emperor have masters like Iron Fist, the Wild Boar King, and the Purple Swallow. In terms of their strength, Iron Fist is third, the Wild Boar King is second, and Purple Swallow is the most powerful. We just need to use this dust to deal with Purple Swallow, Ah Long to deal with the Wild Boar King, and Xiao Meng to deal with Iron Fist. can win two games. ”

Sonya said: "Let this kid and Purple Swallow fight against each other, then wouldn't he die miserably?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Lady Rose's mouth: "This is his life, the life of a slave." When the time comes, bury him. "The thick burial in the mouth of the Rose Lady is nothing more than feeding her corpse to the tiger wolf, and the ordinary slave is not even qualified to feed the tiger wolf.

Xiao Yunfan clasped his hands on his knees, and he looked at the blue-white light in the alcove. After a long time, the door opened, and a big man with a black hood said to Xiao Yunfan: "Feng Chen, you have to behave well tonight." Xiao Yunfan said blankly: "What are you showing?" The big man said: "Don't you know?" Xiao Yunfan shook his head.

The big man's eyes were full of sympathy and sighed: "Naturally, I am loyal to my wife." Xiao Yunfan said: "I still don't understand what you said." Dahan said: "After a while, you will understand, come and put it on him." ”

The two big men picked up the two hemispherical masks and clasped them on Xiao Yunfan's face with a click, the cold iron sheet was attached to his cheeks, and only a pair of eyes and nostrils were exposed on this iron mask. Xiao Yunfan said: "What is this?" The big man said: "You really don't know?" Xiao Yunfan: "I know what I still ask you to do?"

Dahan said: "Send you to fight, and you have to face the bravest warrior under the command of the Thunder Emperor tonight, you had better pray to be killed by her punch, otherwise you will die a miserable death." Xiao Yunfan said: "I don't want to fight, okay." Dahan said: "No." You are a slave and you are not qualified to pick and choose. Xiao Yunfan asked, "Then aren't you a slave?"

The big man smiled and said, "In this dark city, people are divided into four classes. One is the sky, the second is the earth, the third is the man, and the lowest is the ghost. You're a ghost, I'm one level above you, I'm human. Xiao Yunfan said: "Then how can I be a human being?" Dahan said: "Look at the master's instructions." ”
