Chapter 893: The Four Holy Maidens
Although she was indeed detained and couldn't get out this time, she knew something about the outside affairs because of the letter that Long Yuanxiu secretly sent.
But in the end, when the freedom of access is restricted, there will inevitably be some dislikes.
Zhuang Mingyue, who opened the letter paper in her hand, quickly swept the handwriting on it, and then directly tore the paper to shredd, kneaded it into a ball, and used the soup in the food to dissolve it.
After doing such a series of actions with great skill, Zhuang Mingyue returned to her previous slow state and walked slowly through the hall.
I saw her holding the string of Buddha beads on her wrist to save her life, which looked like Buddha beads but were actually pills, and recalled what she had just said on the letter.
"Other saints?"
Zhuang Mingyue, who thought that she was the only saint in this sacrifice, couldn't help but be slightly interested in the fact that there were other saints this time.
On the letter just now, what was said was about this Holy Fire Sect sacrifice ceremony, and it was far more than just a saint like her.
And this time, two days after she was imprisoned alone in this hall, the other saints who were also sacrificial women were also going to be sent to this hall after all, just like Zhuang Mingyue, and they were to be imprisoned in this hall.
Zhuang Mingyue, who was a little curious about this, couldn't help but want to see if among these other sacrificial saints, there were women who could figure it out with her and be rebelled by her.
Soon, outside the palace where Zhuang Mingyue was imprisoned, there was a slight but noisy female voice just as the letter said.
Although Zhuang Mingyue wanted to see what kind of people this so-called group of saints who were about to be sacrificed, she was not in a hurry.
It's just that he is still sitting at the small tea table, drinking the tea he poured quite indifferently.
With the slight chaotic sound outside, getting closer and closer to the gate of the palace, Zhuang Mingyue, who was leisurely drinking tea here, also raised her eyes slightly and looked over at the moment when the palace gate was pushed open.
I saw that from the direction of the palace gate, after being pushed open, a few people walked in from outside the palace, and the women who came with him walked in in general clothes.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is where you will live in the future."
The maidservant who was talking then stopped from the direction outside the door, and then raised her hand to the direction where the palace was, and raised her hand to speak.
Hearing this, Zhuang Mingyue noticed that behind these handmaidens, there were actually four women following them.
Unexpectedly, the woman to be sacrificed this time would have a full four people, and Zhuang Mingyue, who brought her own five so-called saints used for sacrifice, her eyes were slightly darkened by two points.
It's not because of anything else, it's just because of the excessive number of people, but it made Zhuang Mingyue realize that this holy woman is probably just like the altar master and protector of the altar, and every country will find a woman to be the saint for this sacrifice.
Zhuang Mingyue, who was thinking like this, heard the handmaidens again, after sending the four holy maids in, as if she had sent her in, she directly closed the door, and then left.
For this, Zhuang Mingyue's eyes trembled slightly.
With a light smile, he looked at the four saints who were looking up and down, obviously with different personalities.
"Four sisters come and sit?"
Zhuang Mingyue, who was holding a teacup in her hand, looked at a few people in front of her, and then took out a few teacups again, and filled each teacup with tea.
Then he raised his hand lightly and motioned for them to sit down around the tea table.
However, the four women, after seeing Zhuang Mingyue's actions here, looked slightly wrong.
Among them, there are two who obviously seem to have more flamboyant personalities, and after secretly looking Zhuang Mingyue up and down, they walked out of it, and then did it opposite Zhuang Mingyue and diagonally with an indifferent face.
"You're a saint too?"
The woman in a long blue dress sitting opposite Zhuang Mingyue looked at Zhuang Mingyue with her chin raised slightly and asked.
Zhuang Mingyue, who was just smiling lightly from beginning to end, only glanced at her lightly after hearing these words, and then looked at the woman in the bamboo green cardigan dress diagonally opposite.
After a moment of time, he leisurely withdrew his gaze, turned to look at the woman in the long blue dress again, and nodded at her, "Yes, I am a saint on the soil of Korea." ”
"Oh? Great Korean soil? ”
After hearing this, the woman in the long blue dress didn't say anything for the time being, but the woman in the bamboo green dress beside her was slightly surprised when she heard this.
Hearing the surprise in the words of the woman in the bamboo green dress, Zhuang Mingyue turned her eyes up and looked over, "The girl knows me?" ”
However, the woman just shook her head lightly, and the expression on her face was relaxed, "I don't know each other, but I am the holy daughter of the neighboring Nanfeng Country, and I have daily contacts, and even you have heard about it." However, isn't Miss Ah Jiu's current appearance as I have heard of it? ”
Zhuang Mingyue, who heard this, also understood in an instant.
The woman in the bamboo blue dress in front of her must have known that Ah Jiu was injured due to poisoning, resulting in memory loss, resulting in Ah Jiu who should have only been in her teens.
And now this is obviously not just Zhuang Mingyue, who is only in her teens, obviously arouses the suspicion of the woman in the bamboo blue dress in front of her.
But for this, Zhuang Mingyue, who didn't have too much panic to see through, just nodded, "The girl is right, I am indeed Ah Jiu." It was true that he died of poisoning before, lost his memory, and even almost lost his life. ”
"But I see that you are normal now?" The woman in the blue dress also glanced at Zhuang Mingyue with interest when she heard this, and then raised her hand to take the tea that Zhuang Mingyue poured for a few of them, and took two sips of the cup of tea that Zhuang Mingyue had poured for several of them.
Seeing this, Zhuang Mingyue also understood her real intention of drinking tea at the moment.
I saw Zhuang Mingyue chuckle when she heard this, "The poisoning is true, and the initial loss of memory is also true." It's just that after being captured back to the Holy Fire Sect a month ago, most of it has recovered, and during this time, he has been living alone in this empty palace, and the memory of awakening should have been awakened a long time ago. ”
After saying this, Zhuang Mingyue's eyes sank slightly.
"If I could control it, I would have petitioned to continue to be a fool in my teens, at least then I wouldn't be so awake to be sacrificed to taste the taste of the open fire."
Although these words were really cruel, Zhuang Mingyue's face was full of smiles from beginning to end, and it didn't seem to be any kind of fear.
It wasn't because of anything else, but because in this case, she really saw through this, and she didn't have any real fear at all.
turned to see the woman in the bamboo blue dress here, holding the teacup in her hand, and couldn't help but pause slightly because of this.
"So you're back now?"
Zhuang Mingyue, who saw her behavior in her eyes, only nodded lightly when she heard the sound, as if she hadn't seen her behavior.
"That's right, but now, whether or not the memory of being a saint has been restored is of no significance to you and me, to the Holy Fire Sect."
You must know that in today's situation, in the final analysis, they are just sacrifices, as long as they are alive, and the others do not have much effect on the Holy Fire Sect.
Just like when people eat those cattle and sheep, they only care about the taste of the cattle and sheep, so why do they care too much about whether the cattle and sheep are willing to die?
If it is said that between the four of them, there is still a bit of temptation with Zhuang Mingyue.
This time, after listening to such words, the most basic look on his face sank.
It's just because, in this case, they are just sacrifices, where is there anything to test each other?
After having this idea in everyone's hearts, the faces of several people no longer continued to disguise.
And Zhuang Mingyue looked at the other side, since she came in, she didn't say much, just stood silently on the side, half-hanging her eyes, looking a little timid.
What Zhuang Mingyue never imagined was that under the atmosphere of the Holy Fire Sect, there was actually such a timid saint.
Although the saints were sacrificial offerings, they were in the religion for twenty years before they were used for sacrifice, second only to the altar master and protector of the altar.
Therefore, in this case, these saints will naturally become arrogant and domineering in the only twenty years of survival.
Even if she doesn't develop an arrogant and domineering character, at least she will be like the two holy women in front of her, how can she be so timid?
It is precisely because of this that this makes me a little curious about the two timid saints.
"Why don't you two come for a cup of tea?"
Zhuang Mingyue, who smiled gently, looked at the other two timid saints in front of her and asked.
I don't know if it's because of what they just said, so this time the faces of the two saints have a bit of a declining mood because of this.
"Thank you, Nine Holy Maidens."
After thanking Zhuang Mingyue, the two women on this side also sat down beside them.
