Chapter Twenty-Five: Unexpected Visitors

Zhiming was thinking about something, when suddenly there was a "creak", the iron door opened, and the jailer brought food in.

Only then did he realize that he was hungry, so he picked up his rice bowl and devoured it. It's really not customary to eat with torture equipment, but the food is quite delicious, and he forgot about it while eating.

The jailer said to him through the iron door, "Wait a minute, our mother will come to see you." ”

"What did you say?" Zhiming asked as he stopped his chopsticks.

"I said our mother will come to see you later. ”

"What?"

"It's Mrs. Crush!"

"Your chief's wife?" Zhiming thought that the cottage was full of men.

"Nonsense, do you need to ask?" the jailer walked away.

"How can Tianfeng have a woman? Could it be that she is also a god and a human being? Why did she come to see me, is there a conspiracy?" Zhiming was a little puzzled. It stands to reason that the people of the White Tigers are all killing machines, and they should not be mixed with emotional factors.

He looked at the sky from the iron window, a full moon shining in the sky, and selflessly offered her bright moonlight to the earth.

"Master, Alain, I can't bear you, I hope to see you again as soon as possible, and drink and admire the moon together. Zhiming is lyrical to the moon, fantasizing that he has returned to a warm home.

"Mother is here!" the jailer's voice pulled him back from his fantasy.

With the sound of footsteps, several people walked down the stone stairs. The jailer opened the iron door, and a young woman with a gorgeous dress and extraordinary temperament walked in, followed by a large bearded man.

"Mother, I..."

Dahan just wanted to say something, but Niangniang stopped him and said, "General Moon Bow Tiger, you go out first, I want to see him alone." ”

"But..."

"Needless to say, let's step back. ”

β€œ... Be. The Moon Bow Tiger and the jailer had no choice but to retreat.

Although this lady is not as beautiful as a fairy, her rather beautiful appearance is enough to fascinate Zhiming, especially the pair of watery eyes, bright eyes, but the eyes give people an unpredictable feeling, like an unfathomable lake, the bottom of the lake has a long-deposited mass of silt, which cannot be washed away for a long time.

"My name is Xue Chan, and I am the mother of this cottage, that is, the wife of the owner of the village, Tianfeng. Niangniang introduced herself in a gentle but graceful tone.

"Hello, my name is Lei Zhiming. "Zhiming doesn't feel like a god human.

"I am the sister of Diao Chan, Lu Bu's wife. ”

"Diao Chan?!" Zhiming had heard of this person, she had used a serial scheme to make Lu Bu and his stepfather Dong Zhuo turn against each other, and finally Lu Bu killed his father for love.

"What, you don't believe it?"

"If Diao Chan is your sister, then Lu Bu is your brother-in-law?"

"Yes, both of them died at the hands of Cao Cao. Xue Chan said with sadness, "I'll tell you everything about my experience." ”

Here's what she had to say:

After LΓΌ Bu killed Dong Zhuo, he officially married my sister, and I lived with them in Chang'an at the time, when I was only eight years old. They love me very much, I love them very much, and we live happily ever after. Later, due to the impact of the war, we escaped from Chang'an together. Six years later, in a war, my brother-in-law unfortunately fell into the trap of the White Tigers in Xiapi, Xuzhou, and was caught by Cao Jun and strangled to death on the White Gate Tower. Cao Cao insulted his sister in every way, and my sister bit her tongue and committed suicide in order to preserve her chastity, and I did not have the courage to commit suicide, so I had to follow him. Cao Cao saw that I was still young, so he didn't do anything to me, but just took care of me in every way, hoping that I would be obedient to him in the future. However, one day, Tianfeng met me by chance in Xuchang, and for some reason, he asked Cao Cao to promise me to him as a righteous daughter. In order not to change Tianfeng's mind and be loyal to him forever, Cao Cao had to endure the pain of cutting his love and give me to him. At first, Tianfeng regarded me as the pearl of his palm, but when I was eighteen, he suddenly offered to make me his wife. I had to go from the bento to the lady of the village. The wind treated me well, let me eat well and live well, and I passed like this for several years.

"That's how you came from. Then what is the purpose of your coming to me?" Zhiming looked at the poor snow cicada and felt that she was both lucky and unlucky.

"Although I live well and don't worry about food and clothing, I still hate them. Xue Cicada was slightly excited, "Although they treat me well, they are all my enemies after all." My brother-in-law was killed by the White Tigers, my sister was forced to death by Cao Gong, and my only pair of relatives left me like this, and their deaths were a knot in my heart for the rest of my life. Although I have lived a life of abundance and food since then, I have been subjected to mental torture and even masochistic behavior every day, because I cannot bear to live with my enemies. I tried to commit suicide by poisoning many times, but I never had the courage. I often hid in my room and cried alone, and no one could understand my feelings. All these years, I have been silently waiting, waiting for a savior to appear. ”

"Savior?"

"Yes, someone who has the power to take me out of this hellish place. ”

Zhiming finally understood her intention, not to find someone to avenge her, but to leave here, and the only person who could take her away at the moment was the son of the holy sword in front of her.

"Hero, you broke into this place alone, and also injured the Ghost Shadow Tiger, and even severely injured Tianfeng, thus proving that you have enough strength to fight against the White Tiger Team, and more importantly, you are not an ordinary person, but a god and a human being. Snow Cicada looked him in the eye and said.

"How do you know?" Zhiming was surprised.

"Tianfeng told me, he said that you are a high-level god human, with super-first-class combat power, if you can exert 100% strength, even above him. I also know that he, the Eight Tiger Kings, and half of the soldiers in the village are all gods and humans. ”

"I can't imagine that Tianfeng has even told you this. ”

"Yes, when I first came to the cottage, I didn't know that he was a god and a human at all, only that the White Tigers were Cao Cao's secret army. Later, by chance, I accidentally saw him practicing in the practice room, usually he practiced with the door locked, maybe he forgot to lock it that day, and I happened to accidentally see it, that was the first time I saw someone who could practice to this kind of state - the whole room was like a big magnetic field, there was a whirlwind-like gas flowing outside his body, and there was a powerful power barrier around the whole room, and outsiders could not enter it at all, unless they could break it. That's when I learned he wasn't human. Later, he told me the truth and told me not to spread the word. I wasn't surprised when I knew, because I was a theist by nature. In fact, all the human soldiers who later joined the White Tigers were subconsciously enchanted in order to prevent them from passing on the secrets of the White Tigers and to be loyal to the White Tigers forever. I'm the only one who hasn't been enchanted, because the Celestial Wind trusts me, and in fact I haven't betrayed him. ”

Zhiming began to understand why the Hong ghost had committed suicide.

"Speaking of which, you should get the idea. I don't expect you to defeat him, I just want you to get me out. The cicada eagerly awaited his answer.

Zhiming was speechless for a moment, and the snow cicada suddenly knelt down.

Zhiming hurriedly helped her up and said, "Niangniang, I sympathize with your plight, and I can also understand your pain of losing a loved one and being in the same room with the enemy, but at the moment I am really at a loss." ”

"Why?"

"First of all, I came for a purpose, and I won't leave until I have achieved my goal, and secondly, it's not easy to escape from the cottage, it's heavily guarded and skilled, and even I can't guarantee a smooth escape, let alone two people, and besides, as you can see, my hands and feet are locked, and my wounds haven't fully healed, so there's nothing I can do. ”

"I understand, this request is a bit of a hard one. I don't want to force you, I just want you to figure it out for me, because you're the only person I can rely on at the moment. ”

"I know my mother's situation, but I can't help it. Zhiming told the truth.

The cicada's eyes were gloomy. After a long time, she said, "I hope you have a way." I'm a weak woman, I don't have much ability, I just hope to get help from heroes. As long as she can get me out, the little woman is willing to make a promise. ”

"This ...... Can't. Although the other party revealed his true feelings, Zhiming felt that this way of repaying was beyond his acceptable range, not to mention that he couldn't help her.

"You don't have to mind, I mean really. The cicada's tone was unmistakable.

Zhiming also knew that she wasn't joking, but this was really difficult, and now she couldn't protect herself.

Seeing that he was silent, Xue Chan asked again, "Can you tell me the purpose of your coming here?"

Zhiming thought for a while and thought she could be trusted, so he asked, "Do you know anything about the Eight Tiger Kings?"

Xue Cicada walked to the iron gate and looked left and right, and after making sure that no one was eavesdropping, she came back and whispered: "The Eight Great Tiger Kings are the minions of Tianfeng in the divine realm, and Tianfeng brought them to the world together to help him realize his plan. He said that one day he will kill Cao Cao and rule the world, he will be the emperor, and I will be the queen. ”

Zhiming asked again: "Can those gods and humans come to the world at will?"

"I don't know, you should know better than I am. ”

"It's... I can't tell you all at once, so tell me everything you know. ”

Xue Cicada thought for a moment and said, "Tianfeng said that they came to the world with the help of a mysterious force, and as for what power, he refused to say. ”

"Can you tell me some of the characteristics you know about the Eight Tiger Kings?"

"Is this important?"

"It's very important to me because I wouldn't risk my life to go up the mountain. ”

"Actually, I have only seen five of the Eight Tiger Kings, four in the village and one in the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

"What about the other three?"

"I don't know, Tianfeng didn't tell me, maybe it's his secret weapon. ”

"Then please tell me the characteristics of the five people you know. ”

"Okay. Xue Chan considered her own interests and decided to tell everything she knew, "The names of these five people are Moon Bow Tiger, Grey Faced Tiger, Wu Tian Tiger, Ghost Shadow Tiger and Angry Black Tiger, and Angry Black Tiger is the only one who can stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time with Cao Cao's approval. ”

The following are the characteristics of the five tigers dictated by the snow cicadas:

Moon Bow Tiger - Basic characteristics: burly body, scar on the face, beard;

Commonly used weapons: bows and arrows, there is a special golden longbow, called the "moon bow";

Zhiming remembered them one by one. Xue Cicada said: "I have told you everything I know, I hope you can also try to help me, I know that these iron tools will not lock you." I heard that you are General Liu Bei's man, if you have a way to take me away, I will follow you to Xinye. General Liu is a good man, and I want to go to him too. ”

"Niangniang, don't worry, I, Lei, am not a ruthless person, I will try my best to find a way. "Zhiming, out of morality, must say so.

Xue Cicada's face finally showed a trace of joy, and he couldn't help but kiss Zhiming sideways, and then found that he was out of shape, and quickly wiped off the lip prints on his face with his sleeve. She smiled awkwardly, bowed slightly, and said, "Then there is Lao Daxia." You have taken refuge in General Liu, which is really a blessing for him. ”

"This is the will of God, and I was born to assist General Liu in his fight against all evil forces. Sooner or later, Tianfeng and I will have to make a decision, and good and evil will never be separated. Zhiming's tone was low, but loud.
