I was arched by the white moonlight

"Don't, don't—please!!"

The painful wailing never stopped, filling my ears, accompanied by the pungent smell of blood.

"Stop! Stop! Don't kill my mother! I, I—Sinan, please say something!! I beg you, please say something! Let them let my mother go! Let them let go! My mother! Qiu Qiu, say something, Sinan, Sinan!!!" The young man was heartbroken.

There was a sound of '噗呲', although the sound of the sword entering the flesh was weak, it was unexpectedly harsh.

Si Nan's face was dull, his eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, without any waves.Such things have happened ten times before his eyes since midnight today.All day and night, he didn't blink an eye.

He compromised.

He had said an hour ago that he was going to marry Xiezhi.But the two maidservants acted as if they didn't hear it, and the tragedy was still unfolding in front of him.Si Nan didn't dare to blink, and didn't want to, he kept the plight of these people in his eyes, heart, and mind.

These are all those who died because of him, it is his sin.

The young man scrambled to his elderly mother's side, hugged the body that was still warm, and was in pain.

The wailing was endless, until the young man's voice became hoarse, and then he stretched out his trembling hands and silently closed the eyes of his mother.

"You two..." The young man glared at the maid in front of him, but he was instinctively afraid of the bloody swords in the hands of these two women.So, he turned his eyes and found a better target to vent.

"Si, Nan! You have no father and no mother! Inhuman thing!!" The young man's name is Nianci. He was originally a child of a poor family. He was about to be abandoned by his parents because there were too many children in the family to support him. Well, when he, the boss, was about to be thrown to the streets to support himself, he was rescued by a man, who gave him some silver and took him home.

That person is Simon.

He doesn't understand, how did it become like this?Si Nan was originally the one who saved him, how did he become the culprit who killed his mother now?

The young man is at a loss, he just wants a way to vent, that's all.

"Why don't you beg them?! I'm asking you! Why didn't you save my mother?! You think you are very capable, don't you! Aren't you very powerful?! Those hooligans in the well can't beat you, why are you doing this now? Sitting leisurely on the bed and watching my mother being tortured to death by them little by little?!"

Si Nan remained silent, with a dull expression.

This made Nianci even more angry, why?At that time, he obviously looked like a god descending into the world, but now he is so cold-hearted towards them, and just stands by and keeps aloof from them!

The resentment and hatred towards Sinan became more and more profound, and Nianci suddenly noticed the clothes Sinan was wearing now.There is only a thin coat, which has not been fastened, revealing some fair skin.Compared with the god Nian Chi saw for the first time, this looks a bit more worldly.

"...Yo~ Let me tell you, why don't you help us? It turns out that you are afraid of offending our benefactor."

These words were like a flat land mine that exploded above Si Nan's head.

Si Nan's pupils shrank, and his eye sockets turned red and purple after not blinking for ten hours. Affected by emotions, the redness of the eye sockets began to gather in the center of the eyeball.The fingers he supported on the bed kept tightening, and the thin mattress on the bed that was grabbed began to wrinkle.

Seeing the wavering of his enemy, Nian Ci couldn't help feeling relieved, and began to speak freely.

"By the way, what did you say before? I still remember that you said an hour ago that you were going to marry someone called something, right! Tsk~tsk~tsk~"

These three smackings of unknown meaning made Si Nan's already pale face look as if a layer of white paint had been splashed on it, so pale that he did not look like a human being.

Seeing him like this, Nian Ci's heart moved, he thought of Brother Sinan who helped him through the saddest winter in his life at that time.But this kind of compassion disappeared when he thought of his mother's bones.

Nian Ci had the guts to snatch the sword from the handmaid, but the maid stood like a dead person and let him snatch the sword.Nian Chi was surprised by the easy things, but then looked at Sinan with a look of pity and sorrow.

"It seems that you bitch is only trying to please your benefactors, instead of pleasing these maidservants. Seeing them one by one~ they don't respond to your life and death at all. Thinking about it, you shouldn't be a good guy. Keep it in your heart as a benefactor." As he spoke, Nian Ci's face was filled with the joy of retribution and humiliation, and the sword in his hand flashed a ruthless cold light, and stabbed at Si Nan.

Si Nan sat there motionless, watching the sharp sword stabbing towards him, silently closed his tired eyes, neither hiding nor hiding.

After waiting for the soreness of eyes that had not been closed for a long time to finally close, Sinan still did not experience the pain he imagined.

Frowning slightly, Sinan looked hesitantly along the tip of the sword, and what he could see was Nian Ci's complex expression.

"Are you mistaken..." Nian Ci almost gritted his sharp teeth: "I should be angry! I should be sad! I should be sympathetic! I should be crying!!" Why did you shed tears first?Nian Ci didn't understand, but he didn't know what the idea was, the sword controlling him couldn't move forward any further.

Si Nan touched his cheek belatedly, it turned out...he was crying.

Taking a deep breath, Sinan closed his eyes and wiped away his tears.The dead silence in the air lasted only for a while, but it was broken by Si Nan again.

"Let's do it." Si Nan's tone was calm but decisive, his throat became hoarse after he hadn't eaten water or food all day, which added a little heaviness to these three words.The enchantment barrier beside the bed is only effective for him alone, and with him now, Nian Ci's sword is enough to kill the vital point.

"Ling Tang's order, I have taken it."

Nian Ci's pupils constricted, and he lost his mind for a moment.The person in front of him straightened his back and looked straight ahead, as if he saw something, but there was nothing there.

That is something that Nianci cannot see, it is enlightenment.

Nian Ci's hands were trembling, this sword made Sinan wait for a long time.

'squeak—'

The closed palace door was pushed open, abruptly breaking the strange silence in the air.

Holding a bowl of soup, Mei Luo stepped on the sticky blood on the ground and walked in front of Si Nan without looking sideways. She was calm and calm, as if she didn't notice the weird atmosphere in the air.

"My lord, I'm tired. These maidservants are inexperienced, and their actions are neither serious nor serious. They disturbed your lord's rest. After a while, the servants will definitely punish them." After comforting Sinan in an unclear tone, Mei Luo started to help him Serve soup.

The two maidservants at the side looked at each other, and then dragged Nian Ci, who was still in a daze, out.Nian Chi didn't resist or shout, just quietly dragged the cup away.

The gate of the palace was closed again, and Si Nan, who had clearly escaped from the gate of hell, felt melancholy.

"My lord, let's have a drink. This is the characteristic of the devil world. The meat of the first-class monster has been boiled for nine hours after it has been deodorized. There are many tonic ingredients in it. Come, drink it while it's hot."

Mei Luo held the soup bowl up for a while, seeing that Si Nan didn't respond, she shook her head helplessly, leaned closer to him and said softly: "My lord, why are you doing this. The Mozun personally ordered the back kitchen to make this soup. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to His Majesty if you don't drink it? Moreover, His Majesty said that as long as you drink soup and keep healthy, he will kill one less person."

As soon as Mei Luo finished speaking, Si Nan reacted.

As if a ray of candlelight was lit in the darkness, Sinan's dead eyes finally shone with a gleam, but he soon returned to calm: "If there is any purpose, let's put it bluntly, Si is now a prisoner, so why bother to lure him?" coax."

The hoarse voice was not very pleasant, but it was enough to make Mei Luo breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's wrong for you to say that. This soup is His Majesty Mozun's intention. It seems that there is some purpose in what you said, so you can just force it. You don't have to drink it, but His Majesty Mozun proposed that Waiting for the conditions, the mind is clear at a glance, you must try it." Mei Luo handed over the soup bowl in her hand.

No matter what Mei Luo said, Si Nan just ignored it.But in the end, he still picked up the soup bowl.

Si Nan wasn't afraid that the soup was weird, it would be better to say that it didn't matter whether he was afraid or not.If he drank this, maybe he could save one person from dying, and if he didn't drink it, he might not even have "maybe".Furthermore, whether Xi Zhi's promise was a lie, and whether they have tampered with Tang, Sinan is powerless to resist now, and he can only be forced to trust Xi Zhi's words and drink this bowl of soup as a prisoner.

Do not provoke a beast stronger than you, as it may play with fire and kill itself.

The hot liquid slid down his parched throat, making Sinan cough uncontrollably.Mei Luo hurriedly patted him on the back, and said helplessly, "What are you in a hurry for, drink slowly."

Si Nanshun regained his temper, and directly took the soup bowl and put it in his mouth, no matter whether he had an appetite or not, a bowl of soup was finally eaten.

"Slow down." Mei Luo smiled with a hint of pampering, not paying any attention to Si Nan's ugly and reluctant face: "Eat more meat too, come here, I'll get you another bowl."

With soup in his mouth, Si Nan could only nod his head to show that he heard.

"From now on, if you come to these bowls of soup every day, you will save a few people from dying. We won't harm you if we let you drink the soup, don't you think so?" Mei Luo coaxed softly.

Si Nan didn't nod or shake his head, he just kept filling the soup.Oh, as if he had a choice.

After one bowl was eaten, another bowl was added immediately.Si Nan looked at the milky white soup, although his stomach was tossing non-stop, Si Nan still managed to drink it.

Well, the taste of the soup is good. I didn't taste anything, but it felt a little strange to him.

"What's in it?" After drinking, Sinan always felt that something was wrong and asked concisely.

Mei Luo counted for him with her fingers: "There are a lot of great nourishing materials. Hmm... Liao Cao, Cheng Kun, Luo Shi, Jin Yi, as well as the meat and bones of monsters, stewed together for nine hours Woolen cloth."

Indeed, it tastes good, but it feels a little... weird.Thinking of this, Si Nan looked at the remaining meat and a bone in the big bowl, is this similar to something?

Seeing that he was staring at the soup bowl, Mei Luo planned to fill another bowl for him.

Si Nan frowned, and directly pushed the soup bowl over: "No." He was full even if he wasn't full.After drinking the soup, his stomach churned so badly that he felt like vomiting.

Mei Luo didn't say anything, just smiled and said: "The devil world has always been in short supply, and there are no good ingredients. I think you must not be used to eating the meat of monsters."

When she said that, Sinan didn't nod in agreement, his eyes were dim.

Mei Luo just lowered her head to pack her things, and carefully lowered the curtain that was always open.

"You have a good rest."

After a while, when Mei Luo was about to leave, Si Nan called her to stop her.

"What's the matter, my lord?" Mei Luo asked.

Si Nan really wanted to speak up, saying that he had actually agreed to marry Xie Zhi, but the two maids didn't know anything about it.Now Si Nan wanted to talk to Mei Luo formally, but he hesitated when he stepped on the door.

Have the courage to say something once, but sometimes it is difficult to say it the second time.Especially... what Nianci said to him just now still lingers in his ears.

"My lord, if you are fine, the servant will leave first." After speaking, Mei Luo turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait! I—" Si Nan gritted his teeth, and said flatly, "I agree to marry you, so you can stop killing murders!" Say, say it!

He obviously said it out and saved the death of more people related to him, but Sinan's chest suddenly sank, as if he was pressed to the last straw by something, he was so sad that he couldn't breathe.

Brother, why haven't you come yet...

But to Sinan's surprise, Mei Luo walked out as if she hadn't heard anything, turned around and closed the palace door.

With a 'creak' sound, the hall where only Sinan was left was silent.

"Wait..." Sinan stared blankly at the closed palace door, unable to believe it.A nameless fire in his heart rushed to his head, he stood up from the bed regardless, and desperately slapped the invisible barrier in front of him.

But the curtains on the edge of the bed tightly blocked everything about Sinan.

Emotions, shouts, even presence.
