Chapter 4 Buried
When Jiang Mian was eight years old, her parents ran away with her and ran into a dead end.
Her parents were killed by orcs in front of her eyes. The little girl trembled in fear as she looked at the orcs walking towards her with knives.
When he thought he was going to die at the hands of the orcs, the snake beast master, who was in a manic state, stumbled in with unsteady steps.
Half of his face was covered with dense black snake scales, which spread to his neck. His pair of upright red snake pupils were oozing red. He raised his hand and broke the orc's neck.
He stood there and looked at the little girl for a long time.
Finally, the powerful arm covered with black snake scales picked up the frightened little girl and took her away.
…
A slight pain on his forehead brought Jiang Mian back to his senses from his memories.
Jiang Mian's gaze fell on the broken glass on the ground, mixed with bright red blood.
Compared to the wound on her forehead, Lin Yu's entire palm was embedded with messy glass fragments, and blood was flowing, which looked very painful.
But the person in front of him seemed to feel nothing, leaning dejectedly against the wall, with slightly curly black hair covering half of his face.
Jiang Mian stood up silently, took a broom and swept away all the glass fragments and fallen snake scales.
No words were spoken the whole time.
After Jiang Mian cleaned up, he glanced at the man in the corner, then turned and left.
After Lin Yu realized that Jiang Mian had left, his narrow eyes slowly half opened, and there was only boredom in his red pupils, as if he was extremely tired of this world.
A burst of hurried footsteps came from far away.
The girl who had just left came back, carrying a medicine box and dragging someone with her as she walked over quickly.
Jiang Mian dragged one of the original owner's beast slaves over.
Rong Fei got along relatively harmoniously with the original owner, naturally compared to other beast slaves.
At this time, Rong Fei was wearing silver-white pajamas, and his long silver hair fell casually to his waist. His long arms and legs made the silver-white pajamas look a little short, revealing a part of his wrist with faintly visible blue veins and a very white ankle.
Jiang Mian was still pulling at his wrist.
Rong Fei saw it, his face was calm, but he subtly pulled away his hand that Jiang Mian was holding, and Jiang Mian didn't notice it.
"Master, it's so late. Why are you pulling Rong Fei over here? Is there something wrong?" Rong Fei's voice was also gentle.
Jiang Mian pulled Rong Fei's hand again and placed the strap of the medicine box in his palm. He looked up at Rong Fei and pointed his finger at Lin Yu in the corner: "Heal him, or you will be buried with him."
Rong Fei felt a flash of disgust in his heart when Jiang Mian touched his hand, but he did not show it. His eyes followed Jiang Mian's fingers and fell on the embarrassed black snake in the corner, his expression was indifferent.
He spoke calmly and slowly, "I can't cure manic episodes."
Jiang Mian paused and explained: "I didn't ask you to treat his manic phase, I asked you to help him treat his wounds."
As she spoke, she felt that her presence might be an eyesore to them, so she added as she walked out, "Treat him well. I'll come to check on him tomorrow. If I don't cure him, you'll be buried with him."
The following sentence seemed like a threat to ensure that Rong Fei would help Lin Yu with his treatment.
Rong Fei didn't say anything when he heard this.
Jiang Mian also left after saying that.
Rong Fei couldn't understand Jiang Mian's behavior. The snake beastman was obviously the least conspicuous and the most taciturn among the five beast slaves. Jiang Mian also disliked the snake beastman the most. He had already left the beastman here, as if he was going to let the snake beastman fend for himself.
I don’t know what went wrong today. He dragged him over to be treated by the snake orc in the middle of the night, and looked very concerned.
Rong Fei was too lazy to guess what the woman was thinking. He just wanted to help the orc heal his wound and go back to sleep.
He originally thought that it would take some effort to get the snake beastman to cooperate, but he didn't expect the snake beastman to be indifferent and let him deal with the glass fragments in his palm.
Lin Yu's cold and disgusted red eyes were half closed, thinking of the woman whose forehead was still bleeding, but he acted as if he didn't notice and didn't deal with it. He pulled a lizard beastman who knew medical skills over and left.
Jiang Mian returned to his room and felt that this had been a very busy night.
She looked in the mirror, dealt with her forehead briefly, put on a pink Band-Aid, and then went to bed.
The next day.
“Knock knock knock…”
There was a gentle knock on the door.
A quiet, neither friendly nor eager voice came from outside the door: "Master, breakfast is ready."
Then the footsteps disappeared.
Jiang Mian got up like a sleepwalker, brushed his teeth and washed his face, put on his clothes and went out.
From the memory in my mind, I know that the original owner asked Rong Fei to cook three meals for her every day.
Rong Fei was the beast slave who received the least beatings because of his good temper, medical skills and cooking skills.
On the dining table.
Noodles, fried dough sticks, oatmeal, eggs, bread, etc.
Jiang Mian looked at the rich breakfast and was not very moved. After all, he had eaten even more sumptuous food when he was in captivity.
Rong Fei was standing next to the dining table at this time. When he saw Jiang Mian coming over, he slowly spoke, his voice always gentle and calm: "Master, good morning."
When he said the word "master", he didn't sound condescending, as if he was just calling someone's name.
Simply put, Jiang Mian couldn't hear any hint of respect.
"Ah, good morning." Jiang Mian paused before responding. He was still not used to the title of master.
Jiang Mian sat down at the dining table and took a few bites of breakfast. Hmm, it tasted delicious. It seemed that there was a reason why Rong Fei was beaten.
The only people sitting around the round dining table were Jiang Mian and Rong Fei, who was standing.
Because of the unwritten rules of keeping beastmen in captivity, beastmen are not allowed to eat at the table. They can only eat after their masters have finished their meals.
Jiang Mian took a few bites, glanced at the orc next to him, and said silently: "Let's sit down and eat together."
Otherwise it will be cold soon.
But she naturally didn't say the latter sentence.
She just asked, and if Rong Fei still didn't sit down to eat, she wouldn't force him.
"No, master, eat first." Rong Fei just said this slowly.
When Jiang Mian heard this, he seemed to have expected it and didn't say anything more.
She finished her breakfast quietly and left.
Rong Fei stood where he was, his eyes fixed on Jiang Mian's back as he walked away.
Today, Jiang Mian unexpectedly did not cause any trouble and actually finished his breakfast quietly.
In the past, her hands were like useless, and she had to make him feed her everything by hand.
But it’s better not to cause trouble today, otherwise he can’t guarantee that the other party will lose his appetite for a few days.
Jiang Mian still went to the storage room.
She had already said yesterday that she would not put him in solitary confinement. I wonder if Lin Yu listened to her?
Is he still in the utility room, or has he returned to his room in the starship?
