Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 717 Secret Mission
"Of course I can, but...do I want to do this?" Nan Surou seemed to be talking to herself. "Your time is approaching. In a few hours, you will show the 'miracle' of the Holy See in full view. They will put white phosphorus and other flammable materials on your body, and then pour water on your body. Put oil on fire, then pretend to tie you to a cross, and let the people watch you burn yourself in the sun...to prove that you are a vampire."

"I have no choice. When I changed my face, I abandoned my close relatives and everything I had before. Now I am a person with nothing. I promise you whatever you want from me." Tuo Ba Lian looked bleak.

"Your acting talent is getting higher and higher." Nan Surou said with a blank expression: "I have considered it, and I will not save you. Your mother and you have done a lot of hurtful things. I am not qualified to replace you." God will punish you, I gave you everything you want, our equivalent transaction has already ended, I have no reason to continue to pay for nothing."

Tuoba Lian was obsessed with asking for beauty, but Nan Surou gave him beauty, and the deal was over.

Besides, just now Tuoba Lian was still cursing her in his own words, and said that as long as he can survive, Nan Surou will definitely not end well.

Nan Surou said softly: "I have never been a good person, and what I do is not all for justice. I have my principles. I am not Guanyin who saves the suffering. You have to understand this. If you didn't ask for that at the beginning, There may be other misfortunes as well.”

The implication is that everything that Tuoba Lian encounters now is the result of his own choices, and Nan Surou will not be responsible for his choices.

Tuoba Lian suddenly said in a low voice: "On the way to Daqin, I was sealed in a coffin by people from the Demon Repelling Squad. The people who carried the coffin were rather boring. In order to alleviate fear, they often kept calm by chatting."

Nan Surou was silent and listened quietly. Thinking about it, Tuoba Lian knew her way of doing things very well, and she would not do things that did not benefit her. Therefore, if Tuoba Lian suddenly said such irrelevant words, there must be another Purposeful.

Sure enough, Tuoba Lian's voice became deeper and deeper, and he said: "Those people often mention you, because they think that if they captured a vampire like me, they should also send you, a woman who looks like a demon, to the stake."

The corners of Nan Surou's lips curled up slightly. "But they can't..."

"Yes, it's just talking, but..." Tuoba Lian changed the subject and said: "After coming out of the Cold Sand Country, there was a legend in the exorcism group that the devil girl bet with the Pope, and the Pope planned to use gentle way to punish you."

"Oh?" Nan Surou narrowed her eyes slightly.

"The pope will make you a saint, and then send you, and 99 other young vampire hunters, to Sleepy Hollow on the grounds of training the elite of the Holy See, to learn the skills of hunting demons. Those 99 hunters must learn Hunting skills, but from the day they were confirmed on the list, their first mission is to get rid of the saint of the Holy See, that is, you... This secret mission should be carried out directly during the devil training, because, in In such a difficult environment, it is very normal for a delicate girl to die," Tuoba Lian's voice became weaker and weaker, as if he didn't care whether Nan Surou believed it or not.

Nan Surou chuckled: "Do you expect to use this news to exchange your life with me?"

Tuoba Lian shook his head and said: "No, I just want to do something meaningful before I die. If you save me, I will be grateful, and I will find a way to repay you in the future, but if you don't save me, I have no complaints , this is the consequence I had to bear after I made a wrong choice. You are not close to me, and even to some extent, you and I are enemies. You have no obligation to help me unconditionally. Moreover, you are the only one like me I don’t think I should ask too much from someone who came to visit me in a difficult situation and gave me a good last lunch.”

Giving valuable information without expecting anything in return, is this a retreat?
However, Nan Surou really hates to owe favors to others, she chuckled lightly and said, "You are not afraid, after you tell me this, I still won't save your life?"

"You have your principles. I've always been very clear. You don't want to save me. I beg you a thousand times, but you won't save me. Your heart is as hard as steel. So, such a request, I will only propose to you once, if you refuse, I don't think my stalking can change the result," Tuoba Lian said with loneliness and determination in his tone.

"You have seen through certain things. Well, I don't intend to owe you favors to let you die like this. Daqin is different from Tianshengchao." Nan Surou smiled softly: "Although the harem and the previous dynasty There are quite a few people, but they still have a lot of stupid things, for example, this dungeon... be lucky, Tuoba Lian, you saved your life today."

The jailers guarding the dungeon are the most humble people, but those who have any future are basically unwilling to guard this dungeon, because no one knows when the vampire inside will rush out and take their lives. They are smart people, and smart people have to think for themselves, so the jailers here are all old, weak, sick, and helpless people who live day by day.They have all committed crimes before, but now they are weak and disabled, they are not cared about by others, and when they die, no one will help collect their bodies.

These people drink all day long and don't care much about it. Anyway, this is a cellar. Even if the prisoner can escape from here, it is impossible to stop the heavy soldiers guarding the outermost.

Tuoba Lian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to relax his vigilance without leaving this ghostly place.

Nan Surou turned her head and said something to Dong Liu, Dong Liu nodded lightly, and left the spot in a flash.

Not long after, Dong Liu came in with a black rag bag, threw the new clothes in front of Tuoba Lian, and said coldly: "Miss wants you to change into this clothes, and then change the clothes you were wearing before into Among the corpses in this sack."

It's easy to understand such things as bag swapping, but Tuoba Lian felt something was wrong: "I'm afraid the Exorcist Squad will not give up on such a simple and clear strategy."

"The jailer outside is at the most difficult time. I will ask Dongliu to take you out in a while. Try not to make a sound." Nan Surou said casually: "The corpse on the ground has been dead for a while, and there is a smell coming from it. Smell, the person in charge of guarding you has basically never delivered food to you, only Ya's cronies have quietly delivered food to you on the way here. In the eyes of others, you, a vampire, should have been starved to death long ago. Now , in the name of the saint, I brought verbena and forced you to drink it. According to the legend of Daqin, verbena has the effect of restraining vampires. You drank a lot of verbena and died, because you were a dead person before, so you can’t The stench will be emitted in one day. In this case, although you can’t be burned on the spot, you will still die at the hands of the Holy See. At least at first, others will think that I am doing justice for the sky, but they don’t know that they want to use you to show vampires. The miracle of the sun's spontaneous combustion killed you by mistake."
