Lin Yi nodded subconsciously.

Probably not, right?

It's just that the question itself makes him inexplicably hesitant.

He subconsciously added, "Now that there are many wars, how can I take care of my children's private feelings." ”

Xia Ba Ying smiled very meaningfully, and said: "Don't blame me for speaking directly, looking at each other across a thousand mountains, after all, it is better to be accompanied by day and night, what I am most afraid of is to fall in love for a long time." ”

Before Lin Yi could speak, Xia Baying said seriously: "You don't have to misunderstand, I'm not afraid that you and Bai Yuelu will have feelings for each other, but I'm afraid that you will have too much affection for Xiao Shufei, and your love is stronger than Jin, if the Xiao family recruits you back to be a son-in-law, but the price is to obey the Xiao family's will, which is what I am most worried about." ”

When Lin Yi heard this, he became relaxed instead, and said: "I never succumbed to the will of the Xiao family back then, and I won't do it now, Xiao Shufei is also very aware of my temper, and it is absolutely impossible for her to let herself or her marriage become a condition for the Xiao family to blackmail me." ”

"I have often heard people say that the women of the Southern and Northern Wei dynasties were weak, but when I see these people in your army, and then listen to the deeds of those women you say, I know that this is not the case. Xia Ba Ying took a deep look at Lin Yi and said, "It's just that your luck is really good, and you can meet these strange women." ”

Lin Yi glanced at Xia Ba Ying with a strange expression, and felt that this sentence was considered to be Xia Ba Ying's boasting?

......

Northern Wei Dynasty, Luoyang.

Another night of horses' hooves.

These days, not only the city guards and the forbidden army in the imperial city have searched Luoyang City all night, but even the remnants of the White Bone Army of Zhongshan Wang Yuanying have been transferred to the capital, blocking all road checkpoints outside the capital.

After days of shock and disbelief, all the people and officials in the city finally determined the fact that the eldest princess had rebelled.

The eldest princess actually colluded with the generals of the Southern Dynasty, and it was very likely that it was Lin Yi of the Tie Ce Army.

The Battle of Zhongli was a nightmare for everyone in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Originally, the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty won victories before the Battle of Zhongli, but after the Battle of Zhongli, it was a series of defeats, and the defeat of the front line made the price of food rise rapidly, but for families who did not lose their loved ones, they may have been able to eat enough, and then they are likely to starve, but only in Luoyang, how many families have lost their fathers, husbands, and sons because of this war?

For these people, the eldest princess rebelled, but it was Lin Yi who colluded....While many people were angry, they even inevitably thought that maybe it was because of the betrayal of the eldest princess Yuanyan that the battle of Zhongli would be defeated, otherwise with the strength of the Southern Dynasty generals alone, thousands of soldiers and horses, how could they resist the hundreds of thousands of Northern Wei troops?

They hated to catch Yuan Yan, peel off its skin, eat its flesh, and gnaw its bones.

However, after searching for many days, they still could not find any trace of Yuan Yan who fled from the palace, and what made them even more shocked and unbelievable was that General Yang was not dead, but he and Zhongshan Wang Yuanying suddenly entered the palace against the holy will, so he and Yuan Ying, as well as many generals who acted against the holy will and acted without authorization on the day Yuan Yan fled out of the palace, were all dismissed and investigated, and were taken military power.

Originally, all of the White Bone Army under their command was taken over by Cai Sheng, the Hou of Zhenguo.

Some of the cultivators in the White Bone Army are far stronger than the cultivators in the City Guard Army, and in the past few days, they have cooperated with the City Guard Army to arrest many people in the city, but only the high-ranking generals in the White Bone Army know that among the many people who were arrested, some of them were Yuan Yan's people, who were just forced to be arrested, but more of them were people related to the Demon Sect.

In this search and arrest that made Luoyang City sound the sound of horses' hooves day and night, what really wanted to be arrested was the people of the Demon Sect.

Those who were determined to do things for the Demon Sect were all sent to Luoyang Water Prison.

......

Luoyang|The depths of the water prison.

In a dark stone chamber, the foul water seemed to be a collection of water from a sewer, and the rancid smell was disgusting.

An iron cage sits in waist-deep water.

On each of the arm-thick iron rods that make up the iron cage, there are dense sharp thorns, and these sharp thorns are headed towards the center of the iron cage.

The person in the center of the iron cage was already blurred with flesh and blood, but under the threat of this dense thorn, the person in the center of the iron cage could only turn around slightly at most, neither could lie down, nor could sit, or even stand up straight, and could only bend slightly and stand in this iron cage.

Even if it is a cultivator, I am afraid that if she stands in this posture for an hour, she will already feel that life is worse than death, not to mention that half of the body of the person standing in this cage is still in the sewage, and the true yuan in her body has been squeezed clean.

The person in the cage is Helan Heiyun.

Her clothes had turned into shards clinging to her body, and there were few intact parts of her skin.

Under the torture day and night, she could no longer remember how many times she had fainted, her spirit was even a little trance, and she sometimes even felt that she was dead.

She often fainted from the pain, then collapsed on the thorns and woke up from the intense pain.

Compared with the pain of being stabbed with a sharp weapon, standing in such a position for a long time caused the feeling of soreness and numbness in her bones and meridians to the extreme, which was even more unbearable.

Every time she woke up, there were always two dark eyes watching her.

On the opposite side of the iron cage, there is a stone platform.

There is an iron chair on the stone platform, and Xiao Donghuang sits on the iron chair.

"I really admire you. ”

Xiao Donghuang looked at her who woke up again, and said: "No one has ever been able to hold out in such a thorn cage for twelve hours, not even those ascetics in Mobei, no matter how they remind the body that the body is just a skin that has nothing to do with the spiritual will, but they still can't bear the pain in the flesh and blood, you are the only person I have seen in such a cell for more than twenty-four hours." ”

Helan Heiyun did not speak.

She is no longer human, she is powerless to speak, her physical strength has long exceeded the limit, just because of the cage itself, her body is like being forcibly turned into a bow, it is the subconscious of the body because of the pain, so that she maintains such a balance, if she speaks, I am afraid that the body will soon be unable to maintain such a posture, and once again make contact with those sharp thorns.

"Human life is sometimes fragile, but sometimes it is very powerful, and such torture does not die easily. Judging by the way you look, it looks like you're going to die at any moment, but maybe it can last a long time. I'm a little curious how long you can last before you die. ”

Xiao Donghuang looked at her with an indifferent face, and continued faintly: "But what are you insisting on? You are a member of the Demon Sect, you are to the Demon Sect, just like Yuan Yan is to the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, a lot of news from the Demon Sect comes from your hands, of course you should know what a crazy person I am, you should know that I can torture a person for several months in a row." ”

"These twenty hours are probably a long time for you, but you didn't even want to kill yourself. ”

Xiao Donghuang looked into her eyes and suddenly laughed cruelly.

It is indeed crazy that he can use words like madness to describe himself.

"This means... You always believe that the Demon Sect will come to save you, will use more cruel means against me, and avenge you, the more you suffer, the more you will be happy to look at me when the time comes. ”

It's just a pity that he is also a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his own ends, and he can't sacrifice no one. ”

"I'm torturing you here, the news is not blocked, with his ability, he should easily know what I torture you every day. ”

"But I can bet you... I bet he won't risk saving you. ”

Listening to Xiao Donghuang's words, Helan Heiyun laughed sharply.

"Okay, I'll bet with you. ”

She had only said those words, and she had lost her balance, and she heard the sound of her own flesh being pierced again, and she passed out again.
