Jiang Li turned her head and looked over, her expression indifferent. "Is there something you need?"
This appearance...
Even though they know everything, they still insist on making the other person say it, which is really infuriating.
But considering her current situation, the beauty hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, "I...I...I..."
"Is it difficult?" Jiang Li asked with an innocent expression. "If you really don't want to say it, then don't. Anyway, I don't have time to waste here with you."
Beauty: "..."
"Please..." The beauty finally accepted the reality in humiliation and resigned herself to her fate, saying, "Please let me out."
Jiang Li clicked her tongue, then turned her head and looked around the coffin for a while. "A sealing spell, and a spell made by a very powerful master at that. So, who exactly did you offend?"
Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman's tears began to fall again.
Tears streaming down her cheeks created an indescribable sense of beauty.
"I was once just an ordinary woman." The beauty recalled the past, a hint of resentment unconsciously creeping into her eyes. "I was merely more beautiful than others, yet those powerful and wealthy treated me as an object to display their status, vying for me, wanting to win my favor, and in the end..."
The beauty's voice suddenly turned colder, but an indescribable look flashed across her face.
I don't know if it's nostalgia, or...
Overall, it gives people a very strange feeling.
"Finally..." Seeing that she didn't continue speaking, Jiang Li couldn't help but ask again, "What happened in the end? Did you fall in love with someone?"
"Of course." The beauty's tone softened, a dreamy look flashing in her eyes. "It's all about the heart-fluttering moments of our youth, when a man of high status bent down for me, showering me with care and concern. Anyone...would be moved, right?"
Seeing this, Jiang Li had a bad feeling. "And then?"
"And then..." the beauty suddenly gave a mocking laugh, a wave of sadness instantly washing over her eyes, "and then I ended up like this..."
"???" Jiang Li looked confused. "What do you mean?"
"Wasn't I sealed in this coffin?" The beauty's expression was utterly cold as she spoke. "Do you know how desperate I felt when I was sealed here alive?"
Jiang Li: "..."
This kind of thing is hard to accept just by hearing about it.
Moreover, Jiang Li could sense that this beauty was not lying.
"Why would they treat you like this?" Jiang Li asked, puzzled.
Moreover, perhaps because she had been sealed for too long, Jiang Li couldn't see through her for a moment.
"Why?" The beauty smiled softly, a smile tinged with a poignant mockery that broke one's heart. "Do you know why those men were so eager to be with me back then?"
"Isn't it because you're good-looking?" Jiang Li genuinely believed that.
After all, in ancient times, beautiful women were often considered a source of trouble and had tragic fates; such things happened quite often.
She felt it was quite a lot.
Moreover, there are facts to support this claim.
"That's only one aspect." The beautiful woman still finds it hard to accept the situation back then. "It's more because of my special destiny that those people treated me this way. Beauty is just a facade..."
Thinking back to what she initially believed to be genuine sincerity...
It was actually just a scam...
The heart of a beauty...
It hurts in throbbing pains.
Then...
The pain transformed into overwhelming hatred.
"A special destiny?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Li's expression immediately became more serious.
She immediately looked at the runes surrounding the coffin, and then...
Her expression turned cold uncontrollably.
This involves sacrificing living people...
Previously, she couldn't discern any special destiny in this beauty, but now...
Combining the woman's account with the surrounding array formations and incantations, it does seem to make sense.
Since her destiny has been sacrificed, it's normal that people can't see through her now.
only……
She just couldn't understand it...
Why would she wake up after so long?
Jiang Li's eyes were fine, and this beauty could definitely not be considered a vengeful ghost at this moment.
etc……
Could she be...?
The thought of that possibility sent a chill down Jiang Li's spine.
Seeing that Jiang Li remained silent, the beauty continued, "Back then, everyone said I was a witch and begged him to order my execution. He acted like he loved me so much, how could he possibly agree? In the end... he came up with a brilliant idea that wouldn't betray his country or me..."
As she spoke, the beauty could no longer continue.
“What a brilliant idea…” Jiang Li looked incredulous. “He’s willing to die with you? He’s agreed to commit suicide with you and be buried here together?”
The beauty bit her lip and didn't speak.
She trusted him so much back then.
He had made all the preparations, waiting to be buried here with her, never to be separated for all eternity.
But she never expected this...
After she entered the coffin, the man who had been so devoted to her suddenly changed his attitude. He ordered others to seal the coffin and, together with several masters, set up a magic array, trapping her inside. As a result…
He lost consciousness.
That felt so painful...
Just a little recollection...
Both were excruciatingly painful.
The beautiful woman didn't speak; she slowly closed her eyes.
That expression, on the contrary, seemed to be telling others, yes...
Jiang Li was right.
She believed the man's feigned affection and his words about wanting to die with her...
result……
Only I died, and in this way at that.
but……
He will probably never know...
Will I wake up eventually?
"What's your name?" Jiang Li asked with a sigh when the beautiful woman remained silent.
“Fuying, Fu as in comfort, Ying as in graceful bow.” Fuying said her name. “My surname is long gone, like smoke in the past. This is my name. Now, this is all I have left, isn’t it?”
“Not really…” Jiang Li smiled slightly, mercilessly provoking Fu Ying, “Once you leave this ancient tomb, you might not even have this name anymore.”
"Huh?" Fu Ying was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
“It doesn’t mean anything…” Jiang Li shrugged. “I just wanted to tell you that in today’s world, you need to have identification. If you don’t, you’re an unregistered person, and your name won’t be recognized by others.”
Fu Ying: "..."
“However, if you are willing to sign a contract with me and work for me…” Jiang Li smiled slightly at Fu Ying again, “I will take care of your expenses and identity documents in this world.”
Fu Ying's eyes flickered. "Do something for you? I... I don't know anything, so what can I do for you?"
"As the King of Zombies, Hou, you say you can't do anything..." Jiang Li's lips slowly curled up, "Isn't that a bit too modest?"
