sin of nature

Chapter 22: The Princess in Distress

The cut-off night sky melted into a thick ink-like black, and even the half-curved moon was mixed into it.

Xiao Ming stood in the whole burning dry forest, looking up at the sky.

Time seems to go back more than 1000 years ago.

What pierced the sky was a gigantic ax that shone with golden light and had a sharp edge.

The giant ax was wrapped in the power of thunder and the blade of wind and rain, as if it came from ancient times, and it fell on his shoulder without mercy.

"Xiao Ming? Are you okay?"

In front of him was a face with a somewhat anxious expression, and there was a burst of warmth coming from his shoulders. It was the man holding his hand.

"Huh?" He finally recovered his voice and looked at the other party, "I'm fine."

A few beads of sweat appeared on Yao Guang's forehead. In my impression, this was the first time I saw his panicked expression.

They were back on the porch again, only this time the extra corners were gone and there was a straight path leading forward.

The hands on his shoulders seemed to tremble a little.

The sword that Xiao Ming had never seen before was pinched in his hand, the hand holding the hilt was too hard, the knuckles turned white.

Yao Guang is worried about him?

Nonsense... There are only two of them in the president here, don't worry about who he is worried about.

Yao Guang put the pure black sword back into his waist, and said: "There are often very dangerous evil things in some delusional realms. Once you encounter them, they will be very dangerous."

Xiao Ming nodded, feeling that Yao Guang was still very nervous at the moment, and said: "The maze I entered just now was nothing scary, I only encountered a side-headed monster, and I smoked it away with horse dung. Hahahahahaha."

Yao Guang frowned, stretched out his hand and brushed Xiao Ming's shoulders a few times, as if brushing off some dirty things, and said: "That thing can't influence you, but it's too evil."

"Well, thank you, Your Highness, for your help. I'm all right now." Xiao Ming comforted him, and then asked, "What's your Highness over there?"

Yao Guang wrote lightly: "When I met Xiong'e, I took some effort to solve it."

Xiong E is a fierce beast that existed in ancient times. It can be traced back to more than 1000 years ago. Xiao Ming also saw it at that time, and knew how dangerous this evil beast is. It is estimated that there is only escape."

Yao Guang said: "The genius doctor is also able to resist it, but for a long time due to chance, most of his divine power has been lost, so he may not be able to take advantage of it."

Xiao Ming nodded in agreement and suddenly realized something.

"How does Your Highness know that most of my divine power has been lost?"

Yao Guang was startled, a trace of panic flashed across his face, but he didn't say a word in the end.

Seeing his distressed face, Xiao Ming did not want to force him, and was about to end the topic when he saw a white figure flash past in front of the porch.

"what is that?"

The white shadow flashed so fast that the two of them chased after it without even seeing its shape clearly.

Chased all the way to the end of the porch - a bedroom with a closed door.

The white shadow had already disappeared.

Standing outside the dormitory, you can see the light of the candles quietly reflected on the doors and windows, showing a trace of popularity.

This is the only bedroom with light in the room that they have seen along the way.

As long as mortals are alive, in this vast darkness, there must always be a ray of light to soothe the soul.Although the fireflies are bright, they are eerie and cold after all, but the candlelight is very warm and can make people get close.

Xiao Ming was almost certain that this place was where the princess was.

The two exchanged a look, and then cautiously came to the closed door.

"Boom boom boom——"

Xiao Ming stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, the knocking sound resounded in the silence, which was a bit strange.

"Boom boom boom——"

Knocked again, still no one answered.

Xiao Ming raised his hand and was about to push the door, but Yao Guang was one step ahead of him, stretched out his hand to press the door, and said: "Genius doctor, step back a little, I'm afraid there is something ambush inside."

"En." Xiao Ming took three steps back as he said.

"Squeak-"

The door opened.

The candles in the room were really bright, the windows in the room were bright and clean, hung with red veil curtains, all the decorations were no different from the princess bedroom in the world.

Small weeping sounds came into his ears.

The sound came from the inner room, as few as gnats.

The two turned a corner and entered the inner hall, where they saw a woman in white lying on the bed, sobbing secretly, her shoulders and back twitching unconsciously.

Xiao Ming tentatively asked, "Princess?"

The figure on the bed froze and straightened up.

It was indeed the princess they saw in the dormitory of the human world!It's just that the tears on the face of the person in front of him are still wet, which is even more pitiful.

When the princess saw the two, she was sitting by the bed, but she shrank back on the bed in horror, and asked with a trembling voice, "Who are you?"

Xiao Ming comforted: "Princess, don't be afraid, I am your father, please come to treat you Xiao Ming." He pointed to Yao Guang next to him, and said: "This is Yao Guang, the seventh prince of Qingyue, and you The one who has a marriage contract, we are here to rescue the princess."

The princess curled up on the bed was dubious, and said, "How do I know whether your words are true or not?"

Xiao Ming looked at her red bed curtain, and said: "The princess's bedroom in the world, all the arrangements are the same, and when the princess was taken away, she passed through an entrance under the carpet that leads to the world, right?"

The princess seemed to have relaxed her vigilance a bit, stuck her head out, and seemed to distinguish the two people in front of her, with a very innocent expression on her face, she said: "That's true...but you are a doctor, With the prince next to him, there are many obstacles along the way, how can he go deep into this place?"

Xiao Ming didn't know how to answer this question for a moment, so he pointed to Yao Guang again and said, "Your Highness, in order to fulfill the marriage contract you two made when you were young, you came all the way from Qingyue. Came here with thousands of obstacles, just to save the princess from danger."

Yao Guang: "..."

The princess shifted her gaze to Yao Guang, and then looked at Xiao Ming, both of them had an extraordinary bearing, all the original doubts were dispelled, half complaining and half mourning: "Why did you come here... ..." He said, sobbing again.

Xiao Ming asked: "The one who kidnapped the princess, who is it?"

It's okay not to mention it, but when it was mentioned, the princess cried even harder.

While sobbing, she replied intermittently: "Yes... a vicious puppeteer... He took me away half a year ago and asked me to be his wife. I refused to do so. ...he imprisoned me here...."

Yao Guang who was at the side suddenly interjected and said, "It's not so vicious, is it? All the settings in this bedroom are the same as those in your previous palace. This puppeteer has been very attentive to you."

The princess sobbed continuously and stopped suddenly, and then asked complainingly: "If you are robbed by someone for no reason, and that person still forces you to accept what he gives, you don't want the hard work you want at all, are you happy?" ?”

A wave of wavering flashed across Yao Guang's face, but no one noticed, and continued: "If you're so reluctant, the princess still has the heart to clean everything in this hall so spotlessly...... I think the princess is enjoying it."

Xiao Ming: "???"

What is this couples accountability scene?Should he just walk away quietly?

The princess had an expression of being talked about, she gritted her teeth and said, "What do you mean?"

Yao Guang raised his eyebrows, and asked back: "The genius doctor and I came here with no malice. Why doesn't the princess treat each other honestly? What do you want to do with the puppet in your hand?"

Xiao Ming was startled, and looked at the person curled up on the bed, only to see that the other person quickly threw a ball of something at the two of them, a very dazzling light flashed in front of his eyes, white smoke was born, his feet suddenly stepped into the air, When he was about to fall, someone hugged him again.

Only when the smoke in front of him cleared did Xiao Ming notice that the place where the two of them stood just now had sunk into a bottomless pit.

This sudden change made Xiao Ming stunned. He raised his eyes to look at the princess who was still crying a moment ago, but now she had a sinister face, and found that there were many wounds on the other party's hands. The hand of a craftsman.

The two of them confronted the girl curled up on the bed across a deep pit.

Xiao Ming asked: "Are you a princess?"

The girl got off the bed, standing straight and upright, not at all like the little girl just now.

She stretched out her hand and wiped her face casually, wiping away the tears on her face just now, her tone sounded casual but contained some kind of unyielding tenacity: "I'm the princess, what's your business?"

Xiao Ming asked strangely: "You made the puppets in your sleeping hall, including the two giant puppets guarding the gate at the entrance of the boundary?"

The girl sneered, and replied: "I did it. Why? Everyone in the world thinks that a princess shouldn't do what these craftsmen do. I just did it, so what?"

Xiao Ming waved his hand: "It's nothing... just now I thought those things were made by the people who kidnapped you, to resist the people who came looking for you."

The princess said: "No one took me away, I came here voluntarily..." Her tone was very calm, as if she was talking about something very ordinary, "As for those puppets... they are indeed I made it against you outsiders."

Xiao Ming asked strangely: "Why?"

The princess glanced at him, and seemed to have no ill intentions towards the two of them, and said, "How can there be so many reasons in the world? Why does a princess make some weird puppets, and why does she stay in this dark place? In the final analysis, I'm willing to do that."

Xiao Ming still didn't quite understand what she meant.

"I know the two of you are sent by my father to find me, but you can't force others to do things wrong, can you? I know how much my father and mother value me. I owe them, and I can't pay them back in this life. As for you—" She turned to Yao Guang: "Regardless of whether Jasmine had a marriage contract with you before or not, we have never met each other, and a paper marriage contract is useless, so it is not difficult to let it go. What's more, Jasmine has no two colors in her life, and she absolutely cannot and will not agree to anyone else."

Yao Guang's eyelids twitched: "..."

The princess pointed to the deep pit in front of her, and said: "I didn't intend to harm the two of you just now, but since the two of you were able to find this place all the way from the entrance of the land, I am afraid that you are not an ordinary person. If you have to bring me back Realm, I have no other way, I have to guard against it. Down here is the exit back to the human world, and you two can go back from now on."

"If you still want to find out," she added, "you might as well sit down and let's talk slowly."
