Chapter 261
Xue Shun clutched an old cloak tightly, looking grim as he sat in the cabin.
The mouse, whose fur was gleaming red, transformed into a human and said, "You actually like this? She's humiliating you, and you're just listening."
"She just wanted to die quickly and didn't want to be tortured,"
Xue Shun said,
"Qiongzhi will shut her up, don't pay any attention."
Perhaps because he had seen it so often, he suddenly realized... Shen Jiao's thoughts were quite easy to guess.
Take good care of useful sweet words.
The useless ones are abandoned and killed without mercy.
When there is hope for survival, she can speak eloquently; when there is no hope, she will say harsh words and ask for a quick death.
She thought of everything except love, because she didn't understand. She didn't understand that some feelings were more complicated than she could imagine.
Shen Jiao's voice stopped abruptly.
Qiongzhi blocked her mouth and everything became dull.
Shen Jiao was just about to provoke Tianlongdiya and Li Li'niang, why do it at this time?
Could it be that they don’t know yet?
This guess made Shen Jiao's eyes widen. Is this possible?
Even if Xue Shun didn't say it, Qiongzhi would have said it. Besides, she escaped with Wei Qian. She is alive, but Wei Qian is dead.
Even Li Li'niang didn't know about Uncle Li's affairs.
Even a deaf and dumb person should be able to guess that Wei Qian’s death was related to her. Why, she has no reaction at all?
Shen Jiao was really confused by these people.
Whatever you want, at least tell her directly, so that she won't be so anxious. Seeing that everyone in front of her had left, Shen Jiao could only sigh in her heart.
Whatever, she can't get away like this anyway.
Shen Jiao waited and waited, until the sky turned dark and then dawned again, but still no one paid any attention to her.
It is actually quite tiring to stand all the time, especially when the meridians are blocked. Shen Jiao now wishes he could just lie down and sleep forever.
After not seeing each other for a few years, Xue Shun has become so hateful. Could it be that he wants to tie her up here and kill her?
Shen Jiao was just lost in thought when the cloth in her mouth was suddenly taken off. Before she could say anything, Qiongzhi pried her mouth open and poured porridge into it.
Is it necessary? She didn't say she didn't want to eat.
Shen Jiao was almost choked to death. It was definitely a personal revenge. Shen Jiao, whose mouth was blocked again, glared at her.
Qiongzhi ignored him and walked away leisurely.
At noon, there was still porridge, and a bowl of medicine. It smelled like a tonic, so there must be something good in it. It made me feel warm after drinking it.
In the afternoon they finally remembered that people not only needed to come in but also needed to leave.
Shen Jiao was pulled away by Qiongzhi and completed what he had to do under the gaze of several pairs of eyes.
I still drink porridge at night.
For two whole days, Xue Shun refused to show her face and no one spoke to her.
On the morning of the third day, Qiongzhi finally asked before feeding him porridge, "Can you speak human language now?"
Shen Jiao nodded frustratedly.
Now that his mouth was finally free, Shen Jiao had nothing to say.
Qiongzhi didn't care. She said calmly, "The young master wants to see you."
Shen Jiao: "Can I not see him?"
Just this one sentence made her suffer for another day. On the fourth day, she could hardly walk. Her legs felt heavy as if filled with lead, and her strength was so weak that she was not enough to stand up.
So she was dragged to Xue Shun and thrown at his feet.
Xue Shun just sat there steadily, without moving an inch, just like the type of person Shen Jiao hated the most, looking down on ants from a high position.
But his eyes didn't say that.
Qiongzhi and the others all went out.
Shen Jiao propped himself up and sat up, looking up and saying, "Master, have you gotten over your anger? Now I'm the fish and you're the knife, so don't be shy, just use whatever moves you have."
She was smiling.
What Xue Shun hated most was her laughing like that.
"Qiongzhi said you could speak human language, but it seems she was wrong."
"It's not surprising. This slave girl is a liar."
When Xue Shun first met her, he kept calling her a liar.
When old friends meet, the most frightening thing is probably looking at each other in silence.
Shen Jiao knew nothing about Xue Shun now, only that he had changed.
Xue Shun also didn't understand what Shen Jiao had experienced over the years.
No one spoke up when they could have asked. This was unlike Shen Jiao, who felt she still had to say something: "Master... aren't you going to kill me?"
Xue Shun: ...
What should he say?
"It's too easy for you to die like this."
"That's right..." If Shen Jiao was sure, he would torture the person enough before killing him. "Sir, are you going to look for the Sixth Young Master?"
"You killed him?" Xue Shun didn't seem surprised at all, but he was a little suspicious. "How did you do it?"
Xue Lang is indeed not a very good person. I heard that his strength has not improved but declined since he came to Beiting. But even so, he is not someone that Shen Jiao can kill easily. She cannot use spiritual power, which is a fatal weakness.
"Sir, you don't understand me. I can't come openly, but if he capsized in the ditch, why should I be polite? I think his people have found the body by now, or have gone to accompany him. The bandits there are not easy to deal with. I kindly advise you not to go."
"That's right," Xue Shun nodded. "I can already report you back to my boss, so why should I bother? I'll change my route and go back. The weather will be cooler by the time I get home, so it's a perfect day to send you off. I'll prepare a big red coffin for you and put you... and your sticky husband, in it too."
"Thank you very much, sir. However, my husband does not need to do that. I prefer to be alone and free."
Shen Jiao had no way of telling whether his words were true or false, so she just took them as the truth.
"Why?" Xue Shun asked her, "Can't bear to see him die? That's not like you."
"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that there's no need."
Shen Jiao doesn't like him, so why bring him along?
"No need..." Xue Shun repeated the three words, "I understand."
"What do you understand?" Shen Jiao thought the tone of his voice was a little strange.
"You like him," Xue Shun didn't know how he came to this conclusion. "Before, you didn't care about other people's life or death."
"No one has ever died in my coffin before." Shen Jiao was really confused when she heard him say that.
How can dying on one side and dying next to the other be the same?
Xue Shun felt the same way and asked her, "If only one of you could survive, who would you choose?"
Shen Jiao kowtowed to him without hesitation: "This servant kowtows to thank you for not killing me."
Is there any need to ask? Of course she chose herself.
This is really haha.
When you think there is no way out, there is always a new village ahead. That is called finding a way out from a desperate situation!
This is not Mr. Xue Liu, he is clearly Mr. Xue the Great and Kind.
Xue Shun was not surprised at all. He said, "Guess who he will choose?"
Shen Jiao's face froze.
It’s really hard to say anything about Ah Zhu.
"Sir, can you let me ask?"
“You don’t have to go. I’ve already asked him, and he chose himself. He said that if he died, you would be sad, so he couldn’t choose you.
Shen Jiao,"
Xue Shun squatted down and touched her face lovingly.
"Is this your vision? A man who doesn't understand you at all.
Or, do you sense the presence of your kind?"
In some ways, Shen Jiao and Ah Zhu are both equally cruel and heartless, but one knows it and the other doesn't. It's no exaggeration to say they are the same kind...
