Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 627 Who Says I Can't Save You

"What a pity." Chu Zhi clicked his tongue, "You see, Ah Xiang is not willing!"

Seventeen glared.

Chu Zhi smiled lightly: "Don't stare at me, Seventeen, you have to remember that the person I was going to torture was you, and it was Ah Xiang who took the initiative to stand up and suffer all these tortures and grievances on your behalf, so, blame me Just blame yourself, a slave, what good is it that you asked Axiang to do this willingly for you, even if you owe it, you owe it to Axiang, because you should have suffered these things originally, and it was you who harmed Axiang, Understand?"

After Chu Zhi finished speaking, Xuer put away her smile and said coldly: "Ah Xiang, come up and serve me yet!"

After saying that, he loosened the curtain to block his sight.

Ah Xiang didn't have time to talk to Shi Qi, she just said: "Don't think too much, this is what I want, it has nothing to do with you, besides, she is a good person, she didn't—"

"Ah Xiang!" Chu Zhi's voice was like a demon, "Do you want me to come down and invite you?"

Seventeen's forehead veins twitched.

"Here comes the master."

Ah Xiang lightly shook Shi Qi's hand, and hurried into the carriage.

Ah Xiang knelt in the carriage as usual and wanted to beat Chu Zhi's leg, but Chu Zhi refused.

"No need." Chu Zhi smiled, "Have you worked hard these few days?"

Ah Xiang shook her head quickly: "It's not hard."

"I'm going to be honest and remember, I'm not going to keep a dishonest person around."

Ah Xiang said: "I'm not lying, it's true that I'm not suffering."

She is an orphan, and it is really difficult for her to survive. She goes to the mountains to collect herbs, goes to the mountains to hunt, and has to go to the city to work on weekdays, doing all kinds of rough and dirty work.

The master just told her to beat her legs and make some tea, she wasn't tired at all.

The reason for this is because she has never done such delicate work before, so she will inevitably be in a hurry.

However, she believed that as long as she practiced diligently, she would definitely meet her master's requirements.

Seeing that Ah Xiang really didn't complain, Chu Zhi said: "Then you sit here and talk to me."

Ah Xiang panicked: "You... want to hear what this slave has to say?"

All the slaves in the state of Chu called themselves slaves.

Chu Zhi was not in a hurry to correct Ah Xiang's claim.

"Just tell me how you and Shi Qi met."

Hearing this, Ah Xiang was a little embarrassed.

"Actually, I met Shi Qi by accident. You know that I am an orphan, and I usually go to the mountains to collect herbs. Years ago, the doctor at Renxintang said that he wanted an old ginseng, and the price was very high. , I heard that there is one in Misty Mountain, so I went to Misty Mountain, but I accidentally fell into the mine, and it was Seventeen who saved me."

I remember the first time I saw Shi Qi, Ah Xiang recognized him as a private slave.

It was late autumn at that time, and it was already cold in the mountains, but he was only wearing a dark sackcloth, with scars all over his body, his waist was bent, iron chains were on his feet and hands, and his hair was unkempt.

Seeing him like this, Ah Xiang admitted his mistake, and opened her mouth to say: "Thank you, old man."

Seventeen, who was stabbed with the word old man, froze in place, and trembled violently.

It took a long time to spit out a sentence: "I am only 25 now."

After finishing speaking, he dropped Ah Xiang in his arms, turned around and left.

Ah Xiang was caught off guard and thrown on the ground, but she didn't care about the pain, looking at Shi Qiyi's back, she didn't know why a pang of sadness welled up in her heart.

At 25, he became a slave.

Tortured like an old man.

Especially when I heard his hoarse and piercing voice, my heart clenched, how much torture I had suffered.

Ah Xiang catches up with Shi Qi.

"I'm sorry just now. I offended you. Don't be angry. Thank you for saving me. If you hadn't saved me, I would have died a long time ago."

Seventeen did not speak.

Ah Xiang glanced around and saw no one else around, so she asked, "Why are you the only one? And why are you here? And this in your hand... is it ore?"

Seventeen spat out a word: "Get lost!"

Ah Xiang didn't answer but instead asked: "I'm from Qingcheng, and I went to Misty Mountain to gather medicine. This is the first time I know that Misty Mountain still needs mines!"

Hearing the temptation in Ah Xiang's tone, Shi Qi stared at her fiercely.

At this moment, the voice of officials cursing and screaming came from the valley.

Here comes someone.

Ah Xiang wanted to leave before it was too late, Shi Qi hid Ah Xiang under the weeds in the mine, and when the official came, Shi Qi was working hard to move the ore.

"You are quite honest!" But he still whipped seventeen times, "Work hard, if I see you slacking off, I will beat you to death."

After a few whips, Seventeen was beaten and fell to the ground. The officials were finally happy and left with a big smile.

After the person left, Ah Xiang ran out and looked at his wound and asked anxiously, "Are you stupid?"

Won't you hide from hitting you?
Fortunately, there were wound medicines to stop bleeding and relieve pain in her pannier. She found the tumbled pannier at the bottom of the valley. Fortunately, there were still some herbs left, so she took them out and crushed them for Shi Qi to apply. .

"It hurts a little bit, please bear with it."

Regardless of Shi Qi's willingness or not, Ah Xiang forcibly treated Shi Qi's wound.

"Will you still be here tomorrow?" Ah Xiang asked, "I'll come back tomorrow. If your wound is not treated, it will fester and fester, and you will have a high fever, and you will not be able to live."

Seventeen saved her life, and she saved Seventeen once, so it was even.

Ah Xiang left all the food and water on her body to Shi Qi.

She knew that slaves were often starved to death.

Ah Xiang is a native of Qingcheng. She has been running on the mountain since she was a child, and she knows the place like the back of her hand. This valley can't help her at all.

Ah Xiang did what she said, and climbed down the valley the next day, but Shi Qi was not there.

She didn't dare to stay longer, so she could only hide the herbs and food under the pile of weeds, hoping that Shi Qi could see it.

Seventeen did not appear until the seventh day.

The first sentence is: "Why?"

"Naturally, I want to repay your life-saving grace!" Ah Xiang saw that Shi Qi's injuries were getting better, "You used the herbs I left for you, didn't you? I knew you would find out that I hid the herbs and food Where."

From then on, no matter what Shi Qi did to Ah Xiang, Ah Xiang didn't care.

……

Speaking of this, Ah Xiang sighed, with bitterness and helplessness in her smile: "Maybe it's my sympathy, because it's the first time I've seen a slave who was beaten like that, not to mention he saved me, so I'm just ashamed." I thought I could help a little bit more.”

From then on, Axiang and Shiqi became acquainted, until later, Shiqi told Axiang.

"You don't come here again."

Ah Xiang asked: "What?"

Seventeen said: "In three days, I will be sent to Wumen."

Ah Xiang's heart twitched violently.

Unqualified slaves will be sent to the Wumen, where they will be used as medicine masters, tempered bodies, and tortured by inhumans.

"You don't have to save me, and you can't save me." Seventeen said.

Ah Xiang grabbed Shi Qi's arm: "Who said I couldn't save you!"

Seventeen's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Ah Xiang fixedly.

I just heard Ah Xiang say: "Would you like to take a gamble?"
