Chapter 936: Train Ten Thousand People, Redeem One Soul
Wenjiu: "It's useless..."
Xiao Jin: "What should we do then?"
Wen Jiu: "Don't worry, if things don't work out, we still have cold weapons."
After saying this, Xiao Jin felt a little relieved.
Wenjiu propped himself up and stood up, groping his way towards the cave entrance.
I had just taken a few steps when beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.
Just as he lowered his head to breathe, a handkerchief was handed to him.
Wen Jiu subconsciously looked up and saw Tan Luan appear in front of her at some point, holding a basin in his hand, which was full of snow.
Wenjiu: "...Thank you, but no thanks."
Tan Luan didn't say much, but just quietly carried the basin back to the front and placed it on the fire.
"When the snow melts, I'll boil some water so you can drink it."
Warming the wine: "..."
Fortunately, he sat back in his original place quietly.
"Donor, Tanluan killed for you."
She sat down with the warm wine. Then she heard Tan Luan say something that made her confused, and her heart suddenly trembled.
"What……?"
"Tanluan killed for you, so..." He lowered his eyes and glanced at the fish on the ground: "Donor, you should finish it."
Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then silently picked up the grilled fish. After taking a bite, he couldn't help but ask, "Is this Tan Luan's first time killing a living thing?"
Would Tan Luan suddenly look over with his eyes downcast: "What do you think, benefactor?"
Wenjiu didn't avoid his sight: "I don't know."
Tan Luan twitched the corner of his mouth: "Of course... not."
Wenjiu pursed his lips and finally didn't ask any further questions.
Tan Luan suddenly added, "Your Excellency, you want to ask if I have ever killed anyone, right?"
After hearing this, Wenjiu frowned and looked at him.
"If you have the choice to sacrifice many lives to save a single person, would you do it or not?"
Wen Jiu's heart suddenly sank, and he couldn't help but think of the insidious method he saw in the carriage before. He took a deep breath: "...No one can control the life and death of others."
"Does the donor mean that he won't do it anymore?"
Wenjiu: “…Yes.”
"Tanluan, if one day I or someone close to me were to pass away due to an accident, I would not sacrifice others to save them."
Tan Luan raised his eyebrows: "I am different from the donor."
Wenjiu looked over and saw that he was pulling the corner of his mouth.
"If the donor is in trouble, I will refine ten thousand people for the donor and redeem one soul."
Wenjiu was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at the strange red heart on Tanluan's head, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
"you……"
Tan Luan laughed again and handed the water to her: "Donor, you don't have to say anything. If you are tired, you can take a nap. Everyone is not here yet."
…
At the same time, the Fourth Master, standing in the snow-capped mountains, finally got the news.
"Master, there's news. Look at this piece of cotton cloth. Our people found it in the tree. He wants you to take the young master to redeem the concubine. What should we do?"
The Fourth Master's heart shrank suddenly, and he immediately took the note and looked at it carefully, then pursed his lips slightly and said, "You stay here, I'll be back soon."
…
On a deep winter night, heavy snow almost sealed the cave. Tan Luan, holding a wooden stick, poked the crackling firewood and suddenly glanced sideways at Wen Jiu. "The time is almost up. What do you think? Will he come alone, or bring the child to exchange for you?"
In reality, both of them had known the truth all along, but no one had ever publicly expressed their feelings. Suddenly, upon hearing Tan Luan's words, Wen Jiu simply warmed his hands and said, "I don't know."
Tan Luan raised his eyebrows: "What are your plans?"
Wenjiu straightened his clothes and moved closer to the fire: "I don't know."
Tan Luan chuckled: "If he had come here on his own, I'm afraid you would have been in trouble too.
If he brought a child...what would you choose?"
Wenjiu: “…I don’t know.”
Tan Luan put down the stick in his hand and looked at her sideways: "Are you angry with me, benefactor?"
Sensing that Tan Luan was getting closer, Wen Jiu subconsciously stepped back, but he was grabbed by the shoulder.
Wen Jiu frowned slightly: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Tan Luan sensed a hint of disgust in her eyes and finally withdrew his hand: "I just want to ask you, what are you going to do?"
Wen Jiu: "I answered truthfully. I really don't know. What I just said was just your guess, wasn't it?"
Tan Luan met Wen Jiu's clear eyes and nodded seriously: "The donor is really calm and composed, which is something Tan Luan has never seen in his life."
Wen Jiu glanced at his still childish face, was silent for a moment, and then said, "Tanluan, fortunately we have reached this point. Tell me the truth, you have been the one causing all this trouble with the mountain monster, right?"
She paused: "You saved me, but you also want to deceive my trust?"
Tan Luan remained silent, and Wen Jiu silently added, "You did all this just to bring me here? You wanted to... use my body to regain your life, right?"
Wen Jiu said this as he met Tan Luan's eyes.
Through those clear eyes, Wen Jiu seemed to be able to see his own calm and even slightly weird face.
The next second, ripples appeared in his eyes, reflecting a faint smile.
"Donor, are you trying to trick me?" Tan Luan murmured, like a whisper between good friends.
Wen Jiu saw the teasing in his face and pursed his lips: "If you don't want to say it, then forget it."
He squatted beside the fire again and warmed himself by it seriously.
Tan Luan's eyes flickered slightly. "In fact, didn't the donor already know about this? Tan Luan is also very curious, how did the donor know about the method of prolonging life?"
Wenjiu was shocked for a moment, frowning and unable to speak for a long time.
Tan Luan suddenly stared at her again and said, "Donor, if the person who needed to extend his life today was not Tan Luan, but the Fourth Prince, would you use this method?"
Wen Jiu: "I have already replied to you about this."
Tan Luan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "I thought there would always be an exception, but I didn't expect that the Fourth Prince has the same feeling as Tan Luan in the donor's heart."
He seemed very happy when he said this and laughed out loud again.
I have to say, Tanluan has a good appearance. Especially when she smiles, she has a unique sunshine and clarity.
But when Wen Jiu saw it, his scalp tingled.
Wen Jiu waited until he finished laughing, then said calmly, "I just don't want him to live in fear by sneaking into someone else's life. If that's the case, I hope he can leave peacefully."
Tan Luan's eyes drooped slightly, and it became difficult to see the expression in his eyes: "Donor, do you think I'm dirty?"
Wenjiu frowned slightly and said nothing.
Tan Luan in front of him suddenly became agitated for some reason. He tightly gripped Wen Jiu's shoulders, his expression distorted: "How can those people be good people? Huh? The dirty and filthy things they ask for are too numerous to count!
Didn’t they say they were willing to pay any price as long as their wishes were fulfilled?
Why are you unwilling now? Huh? "
