Chapter 73 So, Lady, are you planning to form a covenant with him now?
The boy's name is Gra, his body is a sable, his mental strength is S-level, and his special ability is mind reading.
He is tall, with slender limbs, and dresses in an exquisite and retro style.
A set of exotic red top and skirt, with a jade belt tied around the waist, which was hung with various ornaments. When the waist moved, various sounds floated out, tinkling and crisp, and pleasant to the ears.
His purple hair was braided into a small braid, and he wore a headband on his forehead. In the middle of the headband was a huge ruby, shining brightly, which made his eyebrows and eyes look gentle and delicate, just like a jade carving.
Seeing everyone looking at him with ferocious eyes, he hid behind Scarlett, lowered his head, frowned, and whispered: "Sister, I am telling the truth, I am not lying to you."
With a tea-like expression, Sevilla was furious. He grabbed his arm and pulled it out hard, “Who allowed you to get close to Sijia Shen! Get out of here!”
The harder Sylvia pushed, the more Gra didn't dare to leave Scarlett. She looked at her timidly, her eyes red and about to cry, "Sister, he's so fierce, I'm so scared."
He carefully tugged at Scarlett's sleeve, with an expression of wanting to cry but not daring to, just like a little animal that had strayed into the forest. His eyes, soaked with tears, were watery, and he looked at Scarlett innocently and helplessly, his whole body exuding a lovable aura.
It was so pitiful. Scarlett was held captive for three seconds. She turned to look at Sevilla and tried to stop his rude behavior. "Sevilla, don't be so violent. It's not too late to chase him away after he finishes speaking."
Saiweiya’s eyes widened, “Shen Sijia, who are you helping! I am your beastly husband! He is in cahoots with that bad female, and it’s obvious that he is not a good person. Get him to leave quickly, or you can kill him now!”
Chi Ye waved the big knife in his hand: "That's right! People like this can't be kept here, they must be eradicated!"
Upon hearing this, Gra shrank back towards Scarlett and hesitantly explained, "I'm not a bad person. I was coerced by Hela. If you don't believe me, just look."
Gra stretched out his hand, rolled up his sleeves, and an eagle totem appeared on his jade-white arm.
"What is this?" Scarlett had never seen it before and asked curiously.
Holst said, "This is called a Gu Qi, a very ancient master-servant contract. The contract is signed by both parties swallowing a mother-and-child Gu worm. The child follows the mother, and if there is any resistance, the child worm in its stomach will gnaw at the internal organs of the person being betrothed. The Gu worm's mouth contains a corrosive liquid for which there is no antidote. Once a wound is caused, it will never heal."
A general master-servant contract has no binding effect.
Only Gu Qi can do it.
This is a common form of contract in the underground world.
But there will be no effect of life and death together.
If the mother insect dies, the offspring will also die.
However, the daughter larvae release a slow-acting venom before dying.
The venom will slowly corrode the body.
If you can't find a way to cure the poison, you will die, it's just a matter of time.
"Yes, brother is right, this is a master-servant contract."
Gra glanced at Holst gratefully and said sadly, "I'm an orphan with no family. I've been displaced since childhood, and when I grew up, I was sold into an underground trading market, starving. Hela is my master, and I must obey her orders, otherwise I'll live a life worse than death."
"I don't have the right to choose, but I have never killed or harmed anyone."
After saying this, Gra looked at everyone with a pair of innocent eyes. "Now that Hela is dead, I can't get out. I want you to take me out. I can tell you anything you want to know. I know a lot of secrets."
Sevilla snorted heavily, "You're dreaming! You still want to go out with us? We're being kind if we don't kill you. Think about how smug you looked before, and now you're asking for help? No way!"
Chiye saw that Bivia was awake and knew that the point was not here. He put the knife to Guerra's neck and asked, "How did you survive the past few days?"
Hela and her group kidnapped females, persecuted males, and planned to kill everyone. After doing so many things that angered the public, it was impossible for anyone to be left alive.
Gra must have escaped somehow.
He must know!
Gra didn't intend to hide it, but he didn't intend to say it directly. He glanced at Scarlett and asked softly, "Sister, will you take me out if I tell you?"
Chiye narrowed his eyes and moved the knife half an inch towards Gela's neck, leaving a bloody mark on the jade-white skin. "I'm talking to you, don't look away."
Gladen let out a hissing sound, touched the wound with his hand, and frowned tightly. When he saw the blood on his fingertips, he showed a painful expression and looked at Chiye in panic, "Brother, don't, don't kill me, I said it."
Chi Ye's brows furrowed at the sight of such an anxious and fragile tone. He glanced at Scarlett's distressed face and immediately felt the rage in his heart flare up, making his blood boil. He roared, "Who is your brother? Stop pretending in front of me, or I'll chop you down with my knife."
"I'm sorry, brother. I'm not pretending. I just, I just..."
Gra was halfway through her words when she saw Chiye's murderous eyes. She quickly stopped talking and shrank behind Scarlett, her tone becoming weaker and weaker, "Sister, I'm scared."
Scarlett is actually quite simple. She can't walk when she sees a handsome guy, especially a weak handsome guy.
Besides, it is natural for the strong to protect the weak.
She took out a tissue, handed it to Gra, and said, "Don't be afraid, just tell the truth, we won't hurt you."
Gra took the tissue, blinked with emotion, and rubbed the tissue in his hand, reluctant to use it. "Sister, thank you, I will tell you the truth."
"That day, the group of people really wanted to kill me. I was very scared, and in desperation, I told a few people who were present the secret. They didn't know what was going on, but after hearing the secret, they started beating up their companions and didn't kill me."
"I took advantage of the chaos and escaped. I hid for a long time before I dared to show myself."
"What secret is so magical? It can make everyone fight." Sevilla was so engrossed in listening, with a look of curiosity on his face, that he even forgot to put on a sour face.
Gla smiled and said, "It's not a big secret. It's just jealousy between beastly husbands. Men, to win the favor of their mistresses, will always use some tricks to win their mistresses' smiles, which will inevitably hurt the interests of others. Brother, you are also a husband, so you naturally understand, right?"
"right."
Sevilla nodded in agreement and was about to give Gra a smile, but then he changed his mind and yelled, "Who is your brother? Don't try to be a relative here!"
Gla was obviously frightened. She covered her heart with her hands, pretending to be as delicate as Xizi holding her heart, and said weakly, "I'm sorry, brother. I won't dare to do it again next time. Don't be angry."
Sevilla gritted her teeth and said, "You scream again."
Gra opened her lips, realizing she had said the wrong thing again, and tears immediately rolled out of her watery eyes, "Yes, I'm sorry."
He pursed his lips, his face pale, and turned to look at Scarlett, tears rolling down his cheeks. "Sister, I just want to follow you out. I have no ill intentions."
The look of wanting to say something but not being able to is simply heartbreaking.
Scarlett's heart was really about to break. She couldn't bear to refuse and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll take you out."
Chiye & Saiweiya: "Shen Sijia!"
Scarlett chuckled and looked away guiltily, "More friends mean more ways out, don't you think, Wallace Huo?"
Holst raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "Yes. So, Lady, are you planning to form a bond with him now?"
