Chapter 186: Evil Things
"How do you say it, like the current situation...... It's kind of weird.'
Kneeling beside the fire, Zhao Hongrun quietly observed the pair of sisters surnamed Mi.
The two sisters also sat around the fire.
Among them, kneeling in the direction of Zhao Hongrun's left hand is the younger sister of the sisters, Mi Rui, this heartless little girl who is almost stupid, is sitting honestly on her knees with her head shrunk at the moment, often secretly watching her sister's face, drooping her head for a while and not daring to speak.
On the opposite side of Zhao Hongrun, the seemingly cold witch, the elder sister of the sisters, was looking at the dancing flames with some blankness at the moment, and after a long time, she glanced at Zhao Hongrun, and then sighed silently in an elusive manner.
This situation feels strange no matter how you look at it.
"Goo-"
The strange sound in his abdomen interrupted Zhao Hongrun's thoughts, he glanced at the beast that was roasted on the fire, saw the delicious meat oil slowly dripping into the fire, smelling the tempting fragrance, only to feel a strong sense of hunger welling up in his heart.
"Girl, do you have a knife to cut meat?"
"I'm not called a girl!" may be afraid of the expression on her sister's face, the little witch Mi Rui didn't even dare to talk back to Zhao Hongrun at this time, and after muttering a sentence in a low voice, she took out a knife from the cloth bag around her waist and handed it to Zhao Hongrun.
"That's it...... Just gave it to me?'
Zhao Hongrun was stunned, and handed over the knife with a somewhat strange expression.
The knife was very short, and the whole body was only the length of a palm, and the handle of the knife seemed to be just over an inch of blade, as if it was a knife specially used to cut meat.
『……』
Zhao Hongrun glanced at the knife a few times, and then carefully cut a piece of meat from the skewers, because it was too hot, he only needed to wrap it in his sleeve.
After a while, he tore off a trace of flesh. Put it in your mouth and chew.
"Is there any salt?"
Zhao Hongrun asked.
The little witch Mi Rui angrily took out a small jar from the cloth bag.
Zhao Hongrun took the bamboo jar and carefully checked it, after all, this girl really has no brains, he didn't want him to open the lid of the bamboo jar rashly, and a disgusting and oozing unknown insect suddenly came out of it.
Fortunately, after Fang Cai's lesson, Mi Rui would not make such a mistake again for the time being, and she handed it to Zhao Hongrun's jar. It is indeed a lump of coarse salt.
Zhao Hongrun pinched a small piece of coarse salt in his right hand, crushed it and gently dried it on the cut piece of meat.
Not to mention, with salt as a condiment, the barbecue suddenly became more delicious, which made Zhao Hongrun feel a great appetite.
The situation inside the house has to be said to be a little weird.
As a hostage, Zhao Hongrun cut his own meat and ate meat, and he didn't talk about eating the land, and the two witches who held her hostage. They were enemies, but they turned a blind eye to his actions.
They didn't even care that Zhao Hongrun was holding the knife.
"Do you underestimate me, thinking that I can't hurt them even if I have a sharp weapon in my hand, or ...... Or is it for some other reason?'
Zhao Hongrun was chewing on the barbecue while thinking about it.
After thinking about it, he asked coldly: "Girl, looking at your appearance, it seems that you have given up killing this king?" ”
I saw Mi Rui pouting and said sullenly: "Hurt you now." It's like harming my sister......"
"Oh?" Zhao Hongrun's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "Is it because of the relationship between the frogs?" ”
"Hmm." Mi Rui said sullenly, "If you die." Sister, she will die too......"
Speaking of this, she seemed to notice something, and subconsciously turned her head to look at her sister, only to see that her sister was looking at her coldly, and her eyes were full of anger, depression, sadness and helplessness, which made Mi Rui realize that she seemed to have said something wrong again. also made Zhao Hongrun's pity for her even more significant.
"The legendary "pig teammate"...... As an enemy, you're a pretty reliable being......
While smiling secretly, Zhao Hongrun was relieved.
remembered that in Fang Cai, what he was most worried about was whether the two sisters would fail in coercion. In a fit of rage, he killed him, so Zhao Hongrun brought out the "80,000 Army", "Four Kingdoms Attack Chu" and so on to threaten them.
And now after listening to Mi Rui's words, he relaxed and ate the barbecue leisurely, looking at the sisters in the room as if he was looking at a joke.
Look at what a farce this incident will end up in.
Suddenly, Zhao Hongrun heard a faint word.
"You don't think you can feel at ease......"
"......" Zhao Hongrun raised his head when he heard this, and happened to see the cold witch on the opposite side looking at him with a complicated expression.
And Fang Cai's words came from her mouth.
She seemed to see through the thoughts in Zhao Hongrun's heart at this moment, and said in a low voice: "If you know what kind of Gu worm a frog is, you won't think that you have escaped the catastrophe anymore......
Seeing her indifferent and calm expression, Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart, because he felt that the other party didn't look like he was lying.
"Girl, what does a frog do?"
Hearing Zhao Hongrun call herself a "girl", Mi Rui looked at Zhao Hongrun angrily, but because her sister was on the verge of anger at the moment, she didn't dare to make a mistake.
And at this moment, I saw the cold witch and said lightly: "Sister, tell him." ”
Mi Rui got her sister's pardon, glanced at Zhao Hongrun with a gaze that seemed to be high, and said softly: "Listen, the Qing Gu is a Gu worm that our witches feed with their own blood, if you give it to the man you admire, the man will slowly fall in love with the witch who gave him the Gu, and he will only love her for the rest of his life......"
"Can a worm still distort a person's feelings?"
"Absurd!" Zhao Hongrun pouted and said.
Qi Rui was angry that she was interrupted by Zhao Hongrun, and said angrily with a puffed face: "Ordinary people, how do you know the power of witchcraft!" …… Don't look at your hard mouth now, it won't be long before you fall in love with my sister, well, how do you say that sentence, if you don't see each other for a day, it's like every other autumn......"
"Really?" Seeing her sworn appearance, Zhao Hongrun felt amused.
"It's true!" Mi Rui didn't seem to be able to stand the slightest suspicion from others, and said conclusively: "Legend has it, no man can survive our witch's Gu ......"
"It's just a legend, and it can't be true." Zhao Hongrun didn't believe it at all.
"Believe it or not. Anyway, you will slowly realize the ......" Speaking of this, Mi Rui seemed to suddenly think of a very important matter, and hurriedly advised: "There is one thing you have to remember, you have fallen into my sister's Gu now, and you can't have anything to do with other women in the future...... That's the ......."
"Which one?"
"It's ......" Rui blushed and fiddled with her fingers with her hands. Said shyly: "Gou ...... It's a matter of reluctance. ”
"Sexual intercourse?" Zhao Hongrun deliberately teased her.
When I saw that Qi Rui heard this, her whole face turned red, and Mu Na nodded her head.
Zhao Hongrun frowned when he heard this, and asked, "Then what if I have sex with other women in the future?" ”
"Then you will be eaten by the frog Gu and your heart will be rotten and you will die." Speaking of this, Mi Rui was a little lost, and looked at Zhao Hongrun very nervously and said, "And if you die, sister, she will also die......"
"If one person dies, will another person be implicated?" …… What an absurd pseudo-scientific doctrine!'
Zhao Hongrun shook his head with a smile.
Seeing that he didn't take his advice seriously at all. Qi Rui was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "I didn't lie to you, you must not meet other women in the future, you can only marry my sister and have children......"
"Enough!" Hearing this, the witch of Gao Leng stopped her sister with some shame, and said in a deep voice, "There is no need to explain it to him in such detail. ”
Seeing a faint flush on the face of this seemingly cold witch, Zhao Hongrun was stunned.
Admittedly, the beauty of this contrast is quite tempting.
may have found that Zhao Hongrun was looking at him intently, and the cold witch turned her head a little unnaturally. said lightly: "In short, believe it or not." "Say it. She glanced at Zhao Hongrun, and said in an indifferent tone as always: "Eat quickly, when you are full, you can leave." ”
"Let's go?"
Zhao Hongrun was stunned when he heard this, and asked in surprise: "What do you mean...... Let me go back? ”
"......" The cold witch didn't speak, she acquiesced.
See here. Zhao Hongrun was surprised and asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly change your mind?" Don't you want to coerce this king to return the cities of your kingdom of Chu? Speaking of this, he glanced at the cold witch and nodded as if he had realized.
The cold witch seemed to see through his thoughts, and said lightly: "Do you think I spared my life so I let you go back?" No. It's just not necessary...... The power of the frog Gu is not something you can understand, and it won't be long before you will obey me. At that time, it will be easy for you to return my Da Chu city...... Therefore, there is no need to coerce you anymore. ”
『……』
Looking at the other party's confident look, Zhao Hongrun was surprised and suspicious.
He couldn't help but start wondering: Could it be that what she said was true? Otherwise, why would she let me go so easily? But this thing ...... It's really wicked.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Hongrun suddenly said in a deep voice: "In fact, this king did not deceive you. A few days ago, this king had signed an armistice peace treaty with Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, and Na Huang Arsenic. As for why Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, who hated the Wei people, signed a peace treaty, it was because our Great Wei had reached an agreement with the Qi State to obtain an alliance, so the Chu State had to back down. …… After the beginning of spring, your Chu State will successively deliver to us the materials used to compensate our Great Wei for the loss in this battle, and when the time comes, this king will order the return of all the cities, and order his 80,000 troops to slowly withdraw from the territory of your Chu State. ”
"Really?" Mi Rui looked at Zhao Hongrun in surprise.
At this time, Zhao Hongrun didn't bother to pay attention to this stupid girl who was purely adding to the chaos, and just looked at the cold witch calmly.
Gao Leng Wunu looked at Zhao Hongrun's eyes deeply, sighed slightly for a long time, and said in a low voice: "Maybe what you said is true, but ...... There is no cure for the frog Gu. ”
『……』
Zhao Hongrun's face stiffened when he heard this, the reason why he stated the facts again was nothing more than that he wanted the other party to solve the frog Gu, after all, that kind of evil thing stayed in his body, and it made him feel creepy after all.
However, the words of the cold witch broke his hope.
"Eat quickly, when you're full, I'll send you back to Zhengyang."
After saying this, the witch slowly closed her eyes.
Zhao Hongrun seemed to be able to feel her helpless and confused mood at the moment from her expression.
"Isn't it...... Is it true?'
Chewing the barbecue in his mouth, Zhao Hongrun suddenly felt that the barbecue was still very delicious, and the taste was the same as chewing wax at the moment. (To be continued.) )
