The ugly concubine is all over the city, the prince is blind

Chapter 338 Finale (14)

"Mu Xiaoge, you want me to die, you think too simply." Shen Jinyan said coldly, then swung out his palm, turned his head again to look at Mu Xiaoge who was full of complacency, smiled and said : "How many poisonous insects you have here today, I will kill you as many poisonous insects as possible."

While speaking, Shen Jinyan began to use his internal energy, gathering it all in the palm of his hand, and swiping it out, those internal energy directly turned into some tiny ice needles and hit the poisonous insects behind her. At the same time, her whole body fell directly to the ground .

"Thousands of miles of ice—"

Although she still doesn't know what the ice palm is, but it can't be ruled out that the effect of this skill is good.

As Shen Jinyan's words fell, her hand fell to the ground, and a thin layer of ice spread on the ground, and the poisonous insects were all frozen and stopped moving.

If it's single, Shen Jinyan's move of thousands of miles of ice is enough to freeze the whole person, but there are too many poisonous insects here, she can't do that, so she has to try her best to spread the distance of the internal force to spread further.

Shen Jinyan didn't know how far the thousands of miles of ice had spread, but only knew that she could hardly sustain the speed of consuming her internal energy, so she immediately withdrew her internal energy.

"break--"

As soon as the words fell, at that moment, the ice that sealed the poisonous insects began to shatter, and those poisonous insects were directly blown to pieces.

The move of thousands of miles of ice made all the poisonous insects around Shen Jinyan dead, and the group of poisonous insects in mid-air was also wiped out.

This scene happened so fast, and when Mu Xiaoge regained his senses, he realized that the poisonous insects were all dead. He hated him to death, and had a new understanding of Shen Jinyan's strength.

But Mu Xiaoge wasn't a fool, so he could tell that Shen Jinyan had collapsed a lot after using the trick just now, and now this time was a good opportunity for her to kill Shen Jinyan.

"Shen Jinyan, I know you are running out of energy now, but I still say the same thing, you will die today." Mu Xiaoge gritted his teeth and said, and put the little snake on the ground, and the little snake crawled away. After entering the grass, Mu Xiaoge directly pulled out the clarinet on his waist and blew it lightly twice.

Looking at this familiar scene, Shen Jinyan couldn't help but recall that when she was at the Royal Riding Range, Hua Yuerong also took out a piccolo and blew it gently a few times, and finally attracted a big python. This time, I don't know What did this woman, Mu Xiaoge, summon?

As soon as Shen Jinyan's thoughts fell, a rustling sound came one after another. She turned around subconsciously, and saw a big python crawling towards her. At that moment, Shen Jinyan just wanted to say, this is Ni Will Ma be too stupid?

The boa constrictor that was approaching quickly spit out the snake letter, opened its bloody mouth and directly bit in the direction of Shen Jinyan.

The stench came, Shen Jinyan tapped his toes, and the whole person stepped back quickly, flying and landing on the tree next to him.

Unexpectedly, the boa constrictor slammed into the tree with its whole body, and the tree fell, and Shen Jinyan had to fall to the ground.

The moment it landed on the ground, Shen Jinyan also took out the weapon tied to his calf, and rushed to fight fiercely with the python.

Although she is good at martial arts, but the skin of the python is thick and thick, and she used up most of the internal energy in her body when she just used the move of Thousand Miles of Frozen, and now the internal force cannot be recovered for a while, and her moves have also been affected.

Thinking about it, Shen Jinyan directly turned the weapon in his hand into a nine-section whip, and threw it in the direction of the python, binding the whole body of the python. Shen Jinyan also took this opportunity to get close to the python.

When I went to Master Nie to build this weapon for her, the quality was good, but it was only for humans, and it would naturally not last long in front of some monsters. Considering this, Shen Jinyan directly took it from the python after getting close to it. A few bottles of strong sulfuric acid were taken out of the smart bag, and they were directly sprinkled on the python's body.

Under the stimulation of the strong sulfuric acid, the painful boa constrictor struggled even harder, and directly broke away from the weapon Shen Jinyan used to bind the boa constrictor, and because she was too slow to escape in time, she was directly caught by the boa constrictor's tail. Swept away.

Shen Jinyan hit the tree directly, and fell to the ground again, only to spit out two mouthfuls of blood.

Enduring the pain and just struggling to get up from the ground, the boa constrictor over there crawled over again, trying to bite her with its bloody mouth wide open. Seeing this, Shen Jinyan wanted to die, and his toes lightened. Point, avoid directly to the side.

Although her speed is fast, the speed of the python is not slow, not to mention, it is still an angry python, so the speed is naturally faster.

Being whipped away by the python's tail again, Shen Jinyan's whole body collapsed to the ground, the blood in her body was rolling, she spat out two more mouthfuls of blood, and her face became paler by two points.

Taking advantage of the moment when she landed, Shen Jinyan opened the smart bag again without hesitation, took out a grenade from the smart bag, pulled the cable, and when the python flew towards her, it opened its bloody mouth and wanted to When it came to bite her, she threw it directly into the python's mouth. With this bomb shot, she couldn't believe that the beast was still alive.

The grenade was thrown out, and Shen Jinyan jumped away and lay on the ground. The next second, there was an explosion, and the boa constrictor over there was also blown to pieces, and blood was sprinkled all over Shen Jinyan.

Seeing the death of the python, Shen Jinyan heaved a sigh of relief, the stench hit, Shen Jinyan almost vomited it out, took off his coat without thinking, and then glanced at Mu Xiaoge who was stunned not far away, the corners of his lips hooked With a faint smile.

If this incident hadn't happened today, Shen Jinyan would have regarded herself as a person in this world, and only knew how to use her own force to solve the immediate matter, but she completely forgot that she has a smart bag, a portable space, that can be used anytime, anywhere. You can get things out of it.

Thinking of the way she wanted to use her internal force to kill Mu Xiaoge just now, Shen Jinyan suddenly felt that she was so stupid.

Taking out a gun from the smart bag, Shen Jinyan aimed directly at the position of Mu Xiaoge's heart, and said word by word, "Mu Xiaoge, this thing of mine casts hidden weapons very fast, if you still have Whatever trick you use, use it quickly, otherwise, your end will be death."

Looking at Shen Jinyan who was standing five meters away from her, Mu Xiaoge hated her half to death. She never thought that since she hadn't seen her for many years, she thought that she had an army of poisonous insects. Even if she wanted to control the whole world, it would not be a problem, but the fact Prove, everything is wrong.

Although she was afraid of death in her heart, Mu Xiaoge was not stupid. She knew very well in her heart that Shen Jinyan had collapsed. In addition, her mind was filled with hatred at the moment, so there was no sense of fear at all.

"Shen Jinyan, you are just at the end of your strength right now, and I happen to have a little martial arts, so let's fight to the death."

While speaking, Mu Xiaoge pulled a hairpin from her head, and stroked it directly on her arm.

Blood gushed out, Mu Xiaoge put his arm to his lips, licked the blood on his arm with his tongue, let out a contented moan, and looked at Shen Jinyan with greedy eyes.

"Shen Jinyan, my body has been fed by those poisonous insects all these years. My blood is full of poison, so it can poison people to death. Now I will let you taste the power of my blood. Of course, if you die, I'll use your blood to feed my baby." Mu Xiaoge said in a strange way, holding the hairpin in his hand, he rushed towards Shen Jinyan.

Although she lost the support of her internal strength, Shen Jinyan's own fighting moves have been forgotten all these years. What's more, Mu Xiaoge's martial arts is not high. Naturally, she is not afraid, and she can completely face it head-on.

But, is she that stupid?
With a gun in hand, it is obvious that you can shoot from a long distance, why go forward and do thankless things?
But don't forget that the little snake in Mu Xiao's singer is not dead yet, it has just entered the grass, who knows if the little snake will have any effect at the last moment?After all, she couldn't recover her internal strength for a while, and she was in a state of collapse. Once she lost her concentration in the fierce battle with Mu Xiaoge and was successfully attacked by a small snake, she would not die unjustly.

While thinking, Shen Jinyan directly pulled the wrench and fired a shot at Mu Xiaoge's heart. Perhaps aware of the danger, Mu Xiaoge dodged subconsciously, and the shot also directly hit her left shoulder blade.

The pain hit, and Mu Xiaoge felt a little unbearable pain. At the same time, another shot was shot on her right thigh. Due to lack of energy, she knelt down on one knee and fell to the ground.

Mu Xiaoge struggled to stand up, and then another shot landed on her left thigh, and she knelt down to the ground again. The burning pain from the wound hit her, and Mu Xiaoge returned to the barracks again. The feeling of a military prostitute, the whole body is numb with pain.

Seeing Mu Xiaoge struggling to get up, a cold smile curled up on Shen Jinyan's lips.

"Mu Xiaoge, back then you escaped from the military camp, you were no longer a military prostitute, and you had a chance to survive, why didn't you change your face, hide your past, and live a good life, but you still wanted to come back for revenge. The so-called revenge is nothing but There are almost two kinds, death and living, as if your life is very bad, you belong to the first type."

After trying several times in a row, he still couldn't stand up, and Mu Xiaoge, who fell to the ground because of struggling, simply gave up standing up.

"You are right, I belong to the first type, but Shen Jinyan, let me tell you, even if I die today, I will drag you on my back."

"Whether you can pull my back, I don't know, but you will definitely die."

After finishing speaking in a cold voice, Shen Jinyan directly pulled the pistol in his hand, and shot Mu Xiaoge in the head, but she didn't notice that she was wrapped around Mu Xiaoge's arm from the moment she appeared. From behind, the little snake opened its mouth and attacked in Shen Jinyan's direction.

"Shen Jinyan, be careful behind you—"

Hearing this familiar shout, Shen Jinyan turned around subconsciously, and saw a small red snake attacking her face, the figure of the small snake was getting bigger and bigger in her pupils, she knew that the snake was Mu Xiao The one that the song just let go.

Just when she was about to move her feet and jump aside, a figure approaching her quickly threw her down, and at that moment, the little snake bit her directly.

The little snake bit Huang Pu Xize, who was hugging Shen Jinyan, and was knocked to the ground by Huang Pu Xize's internal force. Ze was shattered.

Because Shen Jinyan turned around too hastily just now, the shot she intended to kill Mu Xiaoge failed to hit Mu Xiaoge's forehead, but the bullet pierced her ear and temporarily deafened her ear. .

After Huang Pu Xize smashed the red snake with one palm, he fell over because of lack of energy, and it was Shen Jinyan who was next to him who quickly supported him.

"Huang Pu Xize, how are you?" Shen Jinyan asked worriedly, and found that Huang Pu Xize's lips suddenly turned a light purple. With just one glance, Shen Jinyan knew that Huang Pu Xize had been poisoned , and is highly toxic.

Without even thinking about it, Shen Jinyan directly poked a few big acupuncture points on Huang Pu Xize's body, and then helped Huang Pu Xize to lean against a nearby tree. First, he took a detoxifying pill for Huang Pu Xize, and then He took out the knife and powder directly from the smart bag and started cleaning the wound for Huang Pu Xize.

"Shen Jinyan, don't bother anymore, it's useless, it's very toxic, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive it."

Intermittent voices rang in her ears, and Shen Jinyan couldn't help but pause when she was dealing with the wound. She glanced at Huang Pu Xize, and found that his face had turned purple, and the worry in her heart was even worse.

"Huang Pu Xize, you will be fine. Your life is mine. You cannot die before I forbid you to die."

After speaking sharply, Shen Jinyan directly sucked out the snake venom from Huang Pu Xize's wound with his mouth. Noticing her movement, Huang Pu Xize directly reached out his hand to block the mouth where she leaned over to continue taking drugs.

"Shen Jinyan, this is very poisonous, how can you inhale it directly with your mouth like this, you will also be contaminated with poison."

Shen Jinyan took Huang Pu Xize's hand away, looked him straight in the eyes, and said word by word: "Huang Pu Xize, if you die, I will let all the people who care about you go and bury you with you. "

This time, Shen Jinyan didn't give Huang Pu Xize any chance to speak, and directly touched his acupoints so that he couldn't move freely, and then continued to take drugs for him, and only after he finished taking the drugs, did he start to take the medicine again.

Seeing Huang Pu Xize's increasingly ugly face, Shen Jinyan who recovered a lot of physical strength directly used kung fu to force Huang Pu Xize to poison him.

Huang Pu Xize spat out a mouthful of black blood, but his complexion still did not improve.

"Huang Pu Xize, hold on, I will take you back to the imperial city right now, and with the help of Guzhu Fan, your poison will definitely be cured."

While speaking, Shen Jinyan was about to help Huang Pu Xize up, but just as he stretched out his hand, Huang Pu Xize grabbed him tightly.

"Huang Pu Xize, why are you holding my hand? Let go. I will take you back to the imperial city right now. You will be fine."

"Shen Jinyan, don't worry about it anymore, I owe you my life in the first place, and now I should pay you back." Huang Pu Xize said in a low voice, a burst of energy and blood surged in his body, and two mouthfuls of blood spit out again.

"Huang Pu Xize, I don't allow you to talk nonsense, you won't die." Shen Jinyan said sharply, as if remembering something, and added: "Of course, if you die now, don't worry, I won't die." To die with you, I will just throw your body here, and then turn around and marry another man."

Hearing this, Huang Pu Xize laughed softly, and tightened Shen Jinyan's hand by two points.

"Shen Jinyan, do you forgive me now? As long as I don't die, you will continue to stay by my side?"

"Huang Pu Xize, where are you going? I didn't say that." Shen Jinyan pouted.

Seeing that there was no anger on her face, Huang Pu Xize knew that Shen Jinyan had admitted in disguise.

It's just that he knows how powerful the poison in his body is, and he doesn't know if he can survive this time.

"Shen Jinyan, if I really die this time, you will find someone you like to live your life with. If I survive by chance, I will break your legs and I will imprison you by my side, even if The price is that you will hate me."

"If you really think that way, hold on to me not to die, let go, and I will take you back to the imperial city right now."

This time, Huang Pu Xize didn't refuse again, and responded in a low voice as a promise.

Shen Jinyan supported Huang Pu Xize to get up, just after taking two steps, Huang Pu Xize couldn't bear the invasion of the poison in his body, and he passed out directly, and because Shen Jinyan failed to support him, both of them fell into a coma. on the ground.

"Huang Pu Xize, how are you?"

Shen Jinyan, who got up from the ground, hugged Huang Pu Xize again, and yelled several times, but Huang Pu Xize did not wake up. After checking his pulse, he found that he had passed out temporarily.

"You hold on, I will definitely not let you die like this."

After finishing speaking, Shen Jinyan went to help Huang Pu Xize up on the ground again, only to hear the sound of laughing from behind him, Shen Jinyan turned his head, only to realize that he had forgotten what she just said just now, while caring about Huang Pu Xize's injury. One shot failed to kill Mu Xiaoge.

Thinking that it was because of this woman, Mu Xiaoge, that Huang Pu Xize was injured for her. Now that he is dead or alive, and whether Huang Pu Xize can survive, Shen Jinyan, with a little anger, went directly to pick up the gun on the ground , and walked step by step in the direction of Mu Xiaoge.

Seeing her approaching step by step, Mu Xiaoge, holding her last breath, laughed even more recklessly. She thought that Shen Jinyan was bound to die, but now seeing Huang Pu Xize rescue Shen Jinyan, even though she was very unwilling in her heart, After all, I still feel relieved.

However, there is no antidote for any of her treasures, that is, the venom of the Chilian Snake. Huang Pu Xize will definitely die if he is poisoned by the snake venom, even the Immortal Da Luo cannot save him.

When she died, Huang Pu Xize, the overlord of the world, would be by her side on Huangquan Road, so she would not feel lonely.

The gun in his hand was aimed at Mu Xiaoge's head, and Shen Jinyan's face turned cold, "Mu Xiaoge, what I like the most is to return it in the same way, but Huang Pu Xize is seriously injured now. Time tortures people, so I will kill you directly and give you a good time, and before I die, I will give you time to say a last word, hurry up."

Hearing this, Mu Xiaoge laughed loudly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Shen Jinyan, I just want to say one thing, no matter how hard you try, Huang Pu Xize will definitely die, although I couldn't pull you back, but With such a man behind me, I still feel that I have no regrets in this life."

Looking at Mu Xiaoge who was grinning ferociously, Shen Jinyan pulled the wrench expressionlessly and shot Mu Xiaoge dead.

Seeing Mu Xiaoge fell to the ground with unwillingness, Shen Jinyan immediately threw the pistol back into the smart bag, turned around and helped Huang Pu Xize up, this time, because of resting for a while, Shen Jinyan also accumulated a lot of strength in his body , although he didn't have the ability to fly away with Huangpu Xize using the lightness kungfu, but he could still use the ghost magic step, so he took Huangpu Xize and rushed towards the imperial city.

After driving for a certain distance, he saw a horse on the side of the road, Shen Jinyan went directly to snatch the horse, made a few promises, and then rushed to the imperial city with Huang Pu Xize desperately.

……

Huangpu Kingdom, March 58th in the first year of Huangpu [-].

Palace, Mochizuki Tower.

"Shen Jinyan, our second child will be born in three months. Do you think he will be a boy or a girl?"

A low voice of inquiry rang in his ears, and he felt that the strength holding her hand was tightened by two points. Shen Jinyan slightly tilted his head, turned around and glanced at Huang Pu Xize, who was looking down at her, with his lips The corner evoked a faint smile.

That day, Huang Pu Xize was seriously poisoned. She took Huang Pu Xize back to the imperial city overnight. Pu Xize detoxifies.

However, due to the late time of seeking medical treatment, the poison had already spread into Huang Pu Xize's body. Although everyone succeeded in detoxifying Huang Pu Xize, the poison had successfully paralyzed Huang Pu Xize's entire nervous system, which directly caused Huang Pu Xize was in a coma, and it took half a year for Huang Pu Xize to wake up leisurely from this coma.

After Huang Pu Xize woke up, after making sure that he was in good health, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

When taking care of Huang Pu Xize's daily life, after being bombarded by Huang Pu Xize's sweet words and sugar-coated shells, thinking about Huang Pu Xize once telling her that people's hearts can be seen after a long time, it is completely clear whether it is true or false, but After that incident, she knew that Huang Pu Xize was sincere, if not, there was no need to fight for her at that critical moment.

Since she recovered her memory, Huang Pu Xize has been by her side all the time. During that time, she always lived in the open air and lived on the smart bag, but Huang Pu Xize was not so lucky. He did everything by himself. He had to take care of her emotions, so he didn't suffer less from her.

What's more important is that she has tried to let go of Huang Pu Xize's rescue of Su Yuqing in Jinxia Mountain.

She knew that Huang Pu Xize was out of consideration for the Su family at the time, and more of it was paranoia in his heart.

It was as if Huang Pu Xize had said more than once that if time restarted and things happened again, he would still choose to save Su Yuqing, but if he couldn't save her this time, he would choose to die with her.

Sometimes, she also felt that these words were false, until Huang Pu Xize was bitten by a poisonous snake to save her, she completely believed it.

Everyone has his attachment in his heart, Huang Pu Xize is obsessed with saving Su Yuqing, there is nothing wrong with that.

In other words, if the emperor Pu Xize really sacrificed Su Yuqing to save her, maybe what she felt in her heart was not hatred, but guilt, not only for Su Yuqing, but also for the Su family, which would make those Those who followed Huang Pu Xize were chilled.

She doesn't mind sacrificing a bad guy in exchange for her life, but if she sacrifices a loyal subject to live on, she can't be so cruel, even if she used to be a cold and ruthless killer, at least she would never go hurt an innocent person.

She thought that time always gave them the best choice and the best answer.

She won't miss it, and there will always be a chance to see her again, just like the ups and downs, joys and sorrows between her and Huang Pu Xize, after going around for so long, they finally came together hand in hand.

Also because she figured this out, the concern in her heart dissipated, and she just stayed in the palace directly.

Time passed day by day, and then she was tricked by Huang Pu Xize in various ways.

One night, she was drunk, and after having sex for the first time, she had sex for the second time and the third time within a few days. Later, she didn't know how many times, anyway, every time she couldn't get out of bed the next day.

It wasn't until five months ago that Kui Shui didn't come on time. After checking by Fan Jiacheng and Su Yuqing, they finally came to a conclusion that she was pregnant!

When she was pregnant for the first time, Huang Pu Xize didn't know about it, even when Jin'er was born, he didn't see it with his own eyes. Through the hands of the servants, she also lived a life like a queen.

Feeling that Huang Pu Xize looked at her with hot eyes, Shen Jinyan hurriedly turned around before Huang Pu Xize leaned down to kiss her, coughed twice and said lightly: "They say sour and hot, I like sour food so much, maybe it’s a boy.”

Noticing Shen Jinyan's careful thinking, Huang Pu Xize grinned indifferently, "I think it's a girl."

"Why do you say that?" Shen Jinyan asked puzzled.

"Because you have been saying that you want to have both sons and daughters. Now that you have Jin'er, Jin'er is a boy, you still want a girl, so I think the child in your belly is a girl."

Hearing this, Shen Jinyan couldn't help but rolled his eyes, whether the pregnant child is a boy or a girl, it's not about whether he wants it or not, the problem should be with the man.

Well, in order not to be pestered by Huang Pu Xize, Shen Jinyan also directly buried this sentence in his heart.

"Shen Jinyan, why are you silent again, what are you thinking?"

"I just suddenly miss Jin'er." Shen Jinyan said lightly, "Jin'er has been with Jin Ling for more than a year. I haven't heard from him for more than a year, and he didn't write me a letter. Xinlai, I don’t know where I am now, how are you doing?”

Hearing this voice full of nostalgia, Huang Pu Xize felt a little taste in his heart. He hadn't forgotten the scene of Qiao Jinling fighting with him in a fair fight but punishing him. If Jin'er came back now, that man would definitely come back with him.

Thinking that he could take this opportunity to repair that man Qiao Jinling, Huang Pu Xize asked tentatively: "You miss Jin'er so much, why don't I send someone to find Jin'er now?"

"No need." Shen Jinyan directly refused, "Jin'er chose to follow Jinling at the beginning, and with their martial arts, as long as they don't encounter the army of poisonous insects we encountered last time, there is no problem for them to protect themselves. It's fine if Jin'er doesn't come back now, but if he comes back, you might leave him in the palace to learn your emperor's mentality and govern the country because I don't want to let him go. Jin'er was squeezed by you at such a young age, so you should hold on first, at least you have to wait until Jin'er is 25 years old to consider the issue of inheriting the throne."

"Shen Jinyan, you really think too much. I just thought that you are going to have a baby soon. It's good if Jin'er comes back to see his younger brother or sister, and I can also strengthen our relationship with Jin'er. By the way Make him the crown prince and make a will, from now on, only Jin'er can inherit the throne, other children must not dream about it."

After the words fell for a long time, there was still no reply from Shen Jinyan. Huang Pu Xize vaguely sensed that something was wrong with Shen Jinyan, scratched Shen Jinyan's palm with his hand, and asked worriedly: "Shen Jinyan, what's wrong with you?"

Every time she didn't speak, Huang Pu Xize would ask her what's wrong?Shen Jinyan complained from the bottom of his heart, is he so tired?

What would she say at a time like this, that it's okay?Or to be honest, did he just want her to have a few more children when he said that other children must not dream about it?
But in her opinion at this time, no matter what she said now, it was wrong!
"It's nothing, I just feel a little cold, why don't we go back." Shen Jinyan said with a smile.

"Okay, it's all up to you, Your Majesty Queen." Huang Pu Xize said with a smile, quickly took off his coat and put it on Shen Jinyan's shoulders. Supporting Shen Jinyan carefully, he went down the Moon Tower step by step and walked towards the bedroom.

In a blink of an eye, more than two months passed, and Shen Jinyan's belly grew bigger day by day.

Because the delivery period was approaching, Huang Pu Xize was worried about Shen Jinyan's body, so he forcibly ordered Shen Jinyan not to go out and walk around, but to wander around in the palace, so Shen Jinyan lived a life of staying at home.

But fortunately, Chuqing and her group are quite considerate, they all come to the palace to chat with her every now and then to relieve boredom.

Well, if the premise can prevent these people from coming to her to hide from disasters in their hearts, just to avoid Huang Pu Xize's tormenting them, maybe she will feel that her life will be better.

In the five years since she disappeared, Chuqing and the others have also been in contact with her, but because of the confidentiality work in place, Huang Pu Xize never knew about it, and it was only a while ago that Huang Pu Xize was only in the way Yu has been pestering her and has no time to fix people like Chuqing, but he has also made a note of Chuqing and them all in his heart.

So, after Huang Pu Xize was free some time ago, he repeated what happened in the days when she disappeared. That man called Chuqing and the others into the palace every three days if he had nothing to do. Tea is about swordsmanship, or hunting in the mountains.

Of course, the penalty for the loser is not small.
