"No, no, it's just that you are so beautiful! We were stunned by your beauty..."
The two of them immediately began to flatter him as if a bright future lay before them.
"Yes, yes, Miss, you are a rare talent, one in a million! Otherwise, why would the Lord choose you among thousands of people?"
The expression on Su Hexiang's face became even brighter, and she raised her head and began to look at people with her nose up.
"Oh, you guys are good at talking. Come on, when I get my reward, you guys will definitely get it!"
"Yes, yes! Isn't it just a matter of time?"
The two of them rolled and crawled, vying to lead Su Hexiang.
The three of them came to a place not far from where the man in black robe lived. Perhaps it was to make it easier for the man in black robe to summon them. With just a command from him, Su Hexiang would appear in front of him immediately.
"By the way, I want to ask what place this is?"
The two men immediately became alert, fearing that Su Hexiang wanted to escape or tip off the people outside.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just curious about what kind of place it is that we can't even see the sun?" Su Hexiang pretended to look up at the sky, and what came into view was a dark night and a huge moon.
But this moon looks fake at first glance!
When the two heard Su Hexiang's words, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, looked around to make sure there was no one around, and then began to talk nonstop.
The person with the most power in this area is that adult, the man in black robe.
Servants like them all serve the men in black robes.
The reason why there is no sunlight here is because the man in black robe hates sunlight, but for what reason, no one knows.
Some people say that it is because he practices dark spiritual skills, so it is normal for him to be afraid of light. Others say that his former lover practiced light elements, but she hurt him too deeply, leaving him with a shadow in his heart.
The man in black robe used a secret method to cover the entire yard with darkness, and the sunlight outside could not come in!
What’s special is that they don’t need doormen or housekeepers to open and close the door when someone enters or leaves. They use a teleportation array when entering and leaving, but this requires the consent of adults before they can use it.
Because there is no need to open or close the door, sunlight cannot come in.
"Then how do the plants here survive?" According to Su Hexiang's knowledge of the spiritual herbs on the Xuanwu Continent, the herbs in this yard need sunlight to grow.
"This...we don't know either. We are not responsible for watering the spiritual plants! Oh, I remember! The people who water the spiritual plants are those who are..." Another person covered the man's mouth.
"The people who water the spiritual plants are the old ladies who work here."
"I understand. How do you usually go out? Do you get paid?"
Styrax even seems to be here to steal your wealth.
"We have never left the house. We were all brought here by force! If we don't work hard, we will be beaten and starved..." When they said this, they couldn't help crying.
They have been here for half a year, and I don’t know if their families miss them.
After asking some basic questions, Su Hexiang told the two that she was tired and asked them to leave. Su Hexiang was the only one left in the whole yard.
"Boring." Su Hexiang stretched lazily, and the range of his mental power immediately increased by one degree.
Su Hexiang saw more clearly the intricate tangle of tree roots under the yard!
I don't know how they planted the trees, but the entire yard is covered in tree roots! It's as if there's no soil, only roots. What's even more amazing is that in every room there are always a few roots growing out of the ground.
Suhexiang could feel that these spiritual plants seemed to have life. This kind of life was no longer simply the life of plants, but the kind that had blood, a heart, and could beat!
Su Hexiang found a place to sit down in the house arranged for her.
The spiritual consciousness follows the mental power to investigate the situation.
The main root of this plant is in the room of the man in black robe. From the main root, there are tens of millions of secondary roots of various sizes.
My goodness! The soil has been eaten by the spiritual plants. Where is the soil left here?
In the darkness that Su Hexiang could not see, a man in black robe appeared mysteriously. He stared at Su Hexiang with gloomy eyes, and there was no trace of emotion on his face.
However, Su Hexiang seemed not to notice anything and continued lying on the small stool, shaking her legs from time to time, giving people the impression that she was still alive.
After a while, the man in black robe probably felt bored and left.
Su Hexiang opened her eyes the moment he left.
Even though she couldn't see it.
The two people who brought her here told her not to even think about escaping, let alone escaping through the teleportation array...
"Ahhh! Help! No! I... I won't run anymore... No..."
Even very weak sounds could be clearly heard by Su Hexiang.
Su Hexiang followed the sound and walked over.
There was a man in black robe who was different from the one just now.
If the man in black robe just now was the king, then this man in black robe was the subordinate.
His subordinate, a man in black robes, led many servants, including strong men and old women, to watch how he taught the disobedient people a lesson.
The person shouting from above was an old woman. Looking at her, Su Hexiang was sure that she was the woman who walked towards her when she was sent in.
The woman kept begging for mercy, but her subordinate, the man in black robe, refused to listen.
Even everyone watching below had a blank expression on their faces.
They first peeled off the nails on the woman's hands and feet, then peeled off the skin from her limbs alive and stuffed it directly into her mouth...
Even if she can't eat it, he will force her to eat it. He has no humanity at all.
Her eyeballs were gouged out by her own hands... tears and blood covered her face, and she no longer had the strength to beg for mercy.
I didn't dare touch anything with my limbs, but since I couldn't see anymore, my injuries would always get worse in a panic.
The subordinate in black robes then released the black fog, and layers of black fog surrounded the woman like a messenger from hell coming to catch people.
Every time the black fog passed through an inch of a woman's skin, she would suffer. The pain would accumulate from one inch to the next, until every inch of her skin was infected by the black fog...
"Ah!" She no longer had the strength to scream, but it hurt so much, like salt being sprinkled on a wound, or like dirt seeping into every little hole in her soul, stretching it, and then sprinkling it with chili oil...
This part passed very quickly. Although we knew that this place would be so cruel, they actually wanted to show everyone the whole process!
Even if some people are not used to this scene, they still have to persevere.
The woman was eroded by the black fog until nothing was left. Everyone was terrified, but not surprised. They just hoped it wasn't them.
