Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 288 Cold-Blooded Reptiles (1)
Baili Chu let out a lazy snort: "I have participated."

Qiu Ye paused for a moment, and suddenly asked softly: "Ten years, a prince participated in this kind of training, why?"

She couldn't imagine that a much-loved prince would participate in that kind of training. Ten years of life without the light of day, repeated killings in the dark, knives with no eyes, Bailichu's skills are definitely not human It can be practiced under shelter, and it will be killed by people as hunting targets at any time in that environment.

Things that are too unbelievable sound as if they are just a ridiculous joke casually said by 'Her Royal Highness'.

"I'm not a prince, but a princess." Bailichu didn't answer directly, but just smiled softly, and answered the question: "Xiaobai, do you know what is the difference between humans and animals?"

This time, he didn't wait for Qiu Yebai to answer, but gently pressed his thin lips against her soft and sensitive ears, exhaled like blue, and whispered softly: "The Buddha said the six realms of hell, the animal realm is the cheapest, and the human realm is the lowest." Yes, but in the eyes of this palace, the human way is more cruel and despicable than the animal way. For self-interest, killing relatives and children, in order to achieve the goal, by any means, even cannibalism, you can never imagine how terrifying the human imagination is. Comparing people with animals is an insult to animals."

"Listen, in the darkness, there always seems to be endless crying and clamoring, and there is always an endless musty smell and bloody smell... smelling it makes people full of excited appetite."

The cold and wet breath and the soft and cold lips made Qiu Yebai couldn't help trembling slightly, only feeling the coldness that he attached to her ear slowly infiltrated into the blood vessels along the sensitive skin of her ear, Then spread to the limbs.

It was as if this boundless darkness was so thick that it was hard to breathe.

temple
Shuangbai was ordering the four little eunuchs who came with him to warm up the food he had prepared, when he suddenly heard the creaking of the palace door behind him, he immediately turned his head and saw a silver-haired man in a black robe The beauty quietly walked towards the terrace behind the temple.

Shuangbai immediately chose some snacks that didn't need to be hot, and asked the two little eunuchs to carry the things, and then followed him to the terrace.

"Your Highness, you are back." Seeing Bailichu standing quietly on the white jade terrace, looking up at the bright moon, Shuangbai saluted respectfully, and then ordered someone to bring things over.

Baili Chu casually glanced at the dim sum and cold soup, his eyes fell on a bowl of dark red blood swallow stewed lotus seeds, he reached out to take it and tasted it slowly and gracefully.

Shuangbai looked at his master's appearance, and waved his hands to signal the four little eunuchs to go down and stare at the surroundings of the temple. After all, this is not the Mingguang Temple. Although Yue Nu has been sent to deal with the other people in the temple, he has also taken precautions, but be cautious. There is nothing wrong with that.

"That's right, Your Highness, you should have met Lord Qiu, how is his situation?" Shuang Bai asked, seeing that his master was silent.

He couldn't see how His Royal Highness was feeling, but he seemed too silent.

"En." Baili Chu suddenly said: "Yes, I told Xiaobai some interesting things about the past."

Shuangbai didn't realize it at the beginning, but after he did, his wonderful eyes widened in disbelief: "You... what did you say?"

Baili nodded at the beginning, turned his face to smile, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "There are some things that need to be done slowly, little by little... Come on, it's not good to scare Xiaobai of this palace."

The silvery moonlight shone on his exquisite eyes, there was no white in the pupils, and the black pupils spread strangely to the entire eye sockets, it seemed as if there had never been any whites, it was as creepy as it was.

Qiu Yebai didn't know how she fell asleep. When she woke up, Bai Lichu was no longer by her side, but she could feel that there was a large and clean straw mat, bedding and pillows under her body. Everything is available, and the musty smell in the air is much lighter.

Moreover, the most important thing is - there is a gorgeous and exquisitely carved pure gold candlestick on the ground, but what is placed on it is not a candle, but a night pearl the size of a baby's fist. The photos in the confinement room are quite bright.

Qiu Yebai has traveled the rivers and lakes for many years, and has seen many good things with her old fairy master. When she saw this thing, she knew it was absolutely valuable.

She stared at the luminous pearl candlestick for a moment, then looked at the empty confinement room, sighed silently, her expression was a little dazed, and she felt a little emptiness in her heart for no reason.

It was as if Bailichu had never been here before, and what he heard and experienced seemed to be nothing but a ridiculous dream.

but……

As soon as she moved her hand, she touched a set of clothes on the mat.

The clothes were exactly the same as the one she was wearing, even the material was the same, the only difference was that the clothes on her hands were complete and intact, while the clothes on her body were scratched by unknown sharp objects, Those breaches also reminded her that everything was not a dream.

Including the weird and cruel way of training eyesight that Bai Lichu told her—after thinking about it carefully, she felt that there were some places that were not so reasonable.

In other words, Bai Lichu didn't tell all the details, but just vaguely gave her a rough and incomplete outline.

The rest needs to be guessed slowly by herself.

For some reason, she felt that what Bai Lichu said reminded her of a place—the Palace of Mantras.

Lijian Yamen

"Duke, don't you intend to interrogate Qiu Yebai?" Chen He looked at the little eunuch kneeling on the ground helping Zheng Jun fasten his belt and left, a trace of hesitation flashed across his thin face, but he still asked.

Hearing this, Zheng Jun's beardless, round and white face turned pale. He didn't speak, but sat back on the red sandalwood carved Eight Immortals chair in the hall, tapped the handle of the Eight Immortals chair lightly with his fingertips, and answered irrelevantly: "Xiao Chen My son, do you still remember what we said when we were promoted to the supervisor of ceremonies, Mr. Qian, when the deceased Mr. Mu took us to pay respects to the portrait of Lord Chitose?"

Chen He was stunned for a while, but after thinking about it, he still said: "I remember, Director Mu once said that - the Supervisor of Rituals, there is no day of rejuvenation, and it is better to die."

A cold and sharp light flashed in Zheng Jun's eyes, and he stroked the red sandalwood carved Eight Immortals chair with his fingertips: "That's right, since Lord Chitose, our supervisor of ceremonies has been appointed as 22 governors, but none of them are as prosperous as they were then. The scenery is no longer the sword of the emperor, and it is declining day by day. I am not reconciled to it. I was scolded by all the officials back then, but how beautiful my supervisor is."

Chen He has followed Zheng Jun for many years, so he naturally understands Zheng Jun's thoughts to some extent. He was slightly startled: "Duke really intends to use Qiu Yebai as a sacrificial knife stone?"
