Ice Beauty Emperor Master Manual

Chapter 42 You Look at Me

In this dungeon known for trading slaves, buyers and sellers can be seen everywhere.The glamorous gold and silver market is filled with the sounds of bargaining and setting prices, and subtle resistance is submerged in muffled hums.

Outside the busy market, a red figure appeared in the crowd, as if the surroundings were still.He seems to be walking here slowly, with a noble demeanor, the phoenix jade around his waist is shaking slightly, and there are a few guards behind him, one can tell his status is noble at a glance.

The merchant stared wide-eyed at him as he approached.

There are rich and powerful families and down-and-out slaves who come and go in and out of this city. Where has he seen such calm and indifferent people?

That person was wearing Weiying's usual clothes, but covered his face like a woman, only showing a pair of beautiful eyes, which can be seen at a glance, like a pool of autumn water, shining and shattering starlight, rippling like spring waves, and looking carefully , only to realize that it was clearly the cold and calm starlight, which made people shudder, and they just wanted to crawl at his feet and offer their hearts.

The people around couldn't help but make way.

"Young master, is there anything I can do for you?" The businessman made up his mind and went forward.

"What can you do to help me?" Chu Tang glanced at him, and his voice was as clear as water.

The businessman couldn't understand, he was at a loss, and suddenly his neck felt cold. It was the man's guard who put the knife to his throat, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead instantly: "Guest, guest, if you have something to say, please speak."

The people on the street screamed and moved away in unison. The guards in the city immediately drew their knives and threatened majesticly: "Luohou City is not your home, our city lord can't tolerate outsiders here. presumptuous."

The person in front of him looked at them, his eyes were as clear and cold as frost and snow: "Whether it is presumptuous or not, it is not up to your city lord to decide."

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards behind him raised their knives and lowered their hands, with a blank expression on their faces, they solved a person in an instant.

The attendant of Luohou City showed anger: "Bold!"

The sound of sword clashing can be heard endlessly.

Chu Tang was within the protection range of Qianji Pavilion's hidden guards, with indifferent eyes, passed these people one by one, and landed on the pointed tower not far away.

……

Different from other magnificent buildings in Luohou City, the bunker where the slaves were held was dark and eerie, and there were occasional sounds of yelling, begging for mercy, and begging for mercy.The slaves who flowed into the trade were like livestock, being whipped with a horsewhip and driven into pens.

In the so-called low-level commodity city, after cruel abuse, many slaves were sallow, emaciated, scarred and out of shape.The guard was expressionless, with a jug of wine hanging on his waist, pacing back and forth, occasionally drinking a sip of wine, and there was obviously a hungry swallowing sound from inside.

At this time, the door opened with a "squeak", and the dazzling light from outside shone in.

"There is a new batch, come quickly!"

"Here we come!" The guard kicked the wooden fence and said loudly, "Be good!"

The solid wooden prison trembled.Shen Yunzhu watched him leave, and asked the people next to him in a low voice: "Is this called Luohou City?"

"Yes...isn't it." The woman looked at her for a while, then nodded weakly.

Shen Yunzhu didn't dare to say anything: "You were all trafficked? So many people are missing, how could the government ignore them?"

The woman ignored her.During the silence, a man in the prison answered her, saying: "Girl, the city lord here is the cousin of the current emperor, a generation of marquis, with a high position and authority. How dare those people cut off his fortune?"

Shen Yunzhu said: "Impossible. It is impossible for the Holy Master and the National Teacher to shield such a person. If someone tells it, they cannot sit idly by."

"But the problem is that no one dares to say it," the man said impatiently. "This Lord Hou kills people like hemp. Anyone who wanted to report to the police was killed, and those who came here to save people died. Who else would dare to come in?" ?”

Shen Yunzhu shook her head again and again: "Then we always have a chance to escape."

"The sky is big and the earth is big. If you sell you to Qimeng Western Region, you can escape if you can. Don't starve yourself to death."

This simply overturned Fourth Miss Shen's cognition.

In her world, people should have a conscience. Even though there are many intrigues in the capital, at least her family protects her very well. She has never been directly exposed to the dirty business in the dark corners like this.

When the light at the door dimmed, they brought new people in.

A man broke free from the shackles, and before he could run out the door, the guards rushed over and were beaten to death with sticks and curses.

The guard spat: "The city lord is here today, please don't make trouble for me."

Shen Yunzhu said: "Come here!"

The guard frowned, turned his head to look at her, and walked over with a smile: "Miss, do you have anything for me?"

Shen Yunzhu endured the nausea, and handed him the bracelet in her hand: "I am from the Prime Minister's Mansion, if you let me go, the Prime Minister's Mansion will definitely reward you a lot."

The guard bit the gold bracelet, and when he heard her words, he laughed with the people beside him. After laughing, he said: "I don't care who you are, our city lord is not afraid of any prime minister's mansion."

"Bold! My elder brother is the current right minister, you dare to speak presumptuously!" Shen Yunzhu shouted, "If he knows that I am here, he will definitely burn this dirty place of yours to the ground!"

They laughed and walked away.

Shen Yunzhu almost gritted her silver teeth, and sat back angrily and weakly.

The people she brought disappeared, and she could only hope in her heart that her family would come to rescue her, but looking at the dungeon surrounded by iron walls, she felt faintly depressed and desperate again.

After a while, the watchmen came back with red-hot soldering irons in their hands.

A trace of fear flashed across Shen Yunzhu's heart, and everyone in the prison panicked: "What are you going to do!"

They ignored them, opened the lock, arrested a few people, pressed them on the torture rack without blinking their eyes, as if they were doing a very ordinary thing, and the branding iron was directly printed on the back of the person.

At the same time as the scream sounded, the smell of burnt flesh followed.

After putting a brand on it, they threw the man away, let him roll on the ground, and dragged him out again.They were very skilled in their movements, and their strength was incredible. Shen Yunzhu couldn't break free, and was thrown on the torture rack with force, and she said in panic, "Do you know who I am! I am... ah!"

The sound of piercing through the air was sharp, and then the sound of a sharp weapon piercing into the flesh, which suddenly disappeared due to her strength.

Shen Yunzhu slowly raised her head.The guard's eyes were wide open, with an arrow stuck in his chest, blood slowly flowing from his mouth, his eyeballs protruding, as if he still couldn't believe it, he fell heavily on the ground on his back, kicking up dust.

At the door, Chu Tang put down the bow and arrow in his hand, and said coldly, "Save someone."

"Yes!"

"who are you!"

……

The people monitoring the situation in the slave city immediately became vigilant: "Hurry up and light up the wolf smoke! Go and report to the city lord!"

However, someone came back immediately and said in a panic: "The Beacon Tower has... been destroyed by others!"

This meant that they couldn't move to rescue soldiers, the people who broke into the city were obviously aggressive, and the attendants in the dungeon didn't know how long they could last.

"What! I'll go and see—"

His voice faded away.

The secret guard of Qianji Pavilion covered his mouth and retracted the knife expressionlessly.

……

The lock in the prison was cut with a "crash", and the people inside rushed to the exit, bowing to the savior from time to time.

Shen Yunzhu was so weak that she could barely stand by leaning on the wall.She looked up at the man, who was not dressed in white as she remembered, but how could she not recognize him.

Against the light, he walked over unhurriedly, out of tune with the chaos in the dungeon, his clothes were as red as a maple fish, and his voice was as clear as water: "Miss Shen."

"It's you." Only then did Shen Yunzhu realize that she was out of danger, took a breath, and said, "Why are you here?"

Chu Tang said: "Brother Ling entrusted me."

Just now she was not in the mood to feel disgusted, but now she is suddenly safe, the smell of burnt flesh and blood and decay surged up together, making her stomach tumbling.As a young lady of an aristocratic family, she had never suffered such humiliation even though the family had declined. Let her lean on the corner of the wall and spit out tears.

Chu Tang looked away.

Xu Yi came up and said, "Master, everyone has gone out, and the fire/powder has been buried."

Chu Tang nodded and said, "Thanks for your hard work."

Hearing what they said, Shen Yunzhu wiped her mouth and straightened up, muttering: "Okay, let's blow it up, let's blow up this dirty..."

Before she could finish her harsh words, her body softened and she fainted.

Chu Tang got close to her, and just stretched out his hand, but Xu Yi was faster than him, strode past him, caught Shen Yunzhu, and then carried it on his shoulder like a sack.

Chu Tang withdrew his hand lightly.

When walking out, Xu Yi followed behind him, always paying attention to the movement around him.Shen Yunzhu's head was down, her long hair was in a mess, Chu Tang glimpsed it out of the corner of her eye, and couldn't help calling out: "Xu Yi."

"The subordinate is here!" Xu Yi replied with a dull face as usual, like a lifeless machine, and treated the warm and fragrant nephrite on his shoulder coldly.

"If it doesn't take much effort," Chu Tang said, "you may be able to change your posture."

After listening to his words, Xu Yi thought about it seriously, and then changed Shen Yunzhu from the left shoulder to the right shoulder.

Facing Chu Tang's calm gaze, Xu Yi felt a little embarrassed: "Master..."

Chu Tang turned around and waved his hands: "That's all. Send Miss Shen to the carriage."

There was a carriage in the open space, so Xu Yi put Shen Yunzhu in the carriage and turned to look for Chu Tang. However, in the blink of an eye, Chu Tang, who was supposed to be by his side, disappeared.

Xu Yi's expressionless face suddenly went blank for a moment: "Master!"

The others in Qianji Pavilion and Qianlingwei also didn't see how the national teacher disappeared, and they immediately became frightened.

Xu Yi clenched her fists: "Look, look for them all!"

"Yes, Hall Master!"

……

The whole city was paralyzed, fires and smoke were everywhere, killings could be seen everywhere, fleeing, attacking, trapped beasts were still fighting, all became a mess.

At the city gate, the guards cleaned up.

Song Shuangcheng comforted: "The people from Qianji Pavilion have already gone to Qianlingwei first, and the people placed by His Majesty will also cooperate with the national teacher. The national teacher is auspicious, and there will be nothing wrong."

Yu Ke's face was livid, as if he couldn't listen at all, and looked straight at the gate of the city.

Song Shuangcheng sighed: "The national teacher told us to wait here, so we will definitely not miss the appointment. Don't worry too much, Your Majesty."

If Chu Tang hadn't asked him to wait here, how could Yu Ke have stayed here peacefully, I'm afraid he would have searched the city himself long ago.

Suddenly, a group of people came back, knelt down and clasped their fists and said: "Report to Your Majesty, our people can't find where the national teacher is!"

Yu Ke held the sword firmly, his jaw was tense, and he said sharply: "Look again! Turn this place over and find the national teacher for me!"

The guard shivered: "Yes!"

How could Chu Tang not be found by himself?

Is it Yu Qiao's trick?Impossible, Chu Tang and his plan are impeccable, and they will never give Yu Qiao a chance to prepare. It is already a skill for him to escape, how could he take Chu Tang away?

Standing where he was, Yu Ke's face was extremely ugly.Suddenly, he threw the sword, which plunged obliquely into the ground, and got on his horse: "I'm going to find the national teacher."

"Your Majesty!" Song Shuangcheng called to him.

Yu Ke didn't look back, he rode his horse and rode Juechen, perhaps he couldn't even hear him.

Song Shuangcheng sighed.

However, on the way, Yu Ke met Xu Yi, but Xu Yi didn't have Chu Tang by his side.A coldness slowly emerged from the bottom of his heart, he restrained Huoyun, his hands were trembling, and he asked coldly, "Where is the national teacher?"

Xu Yi's face was a little dirty, it was the dust and blood stains from a frantic search.He whispered: "The national teacher is gone."

Yu Ke looked at him condescendingly, but he wasn't looking at anything. In a daze, he couldn't see anything, only heard his own voice, cold and heartless: "The city is closed, no one can come in or out. Let me look for it. I can't find it." There is no need for the people of this city to live."

Where did Chu Tang go?

When Xu Yi sent Shen Yunzhu to the carriage, a system voice suddenly sounded in his mind:

[Ding—"Cover my little vest" hidden mission failed!I regret to inform the host that your points will be deducted as a punishment. 】

Chu Tang said calmly, "Deduct it."

When he knew that Song Shuangcheng had also come here, he knew that this matter might not be hidden.Just didn't expect it to be so fast.

Fortunately, the deduction of points did not do him any harm.

However, in the next second, the system said:

[Randomly deduct 600 points, the remaining points of the host is 500, and the deductions will be negative points, please pay attention to the host. 】

[As a penalty for negative points, the host is immediately sent back to modern times, and the transmission is interrupted for a few days, so that the host can reflect and summarize after rest. 】

Chu Tang: "..."

Suddenly, the scene in front of him changed from a chaotic slave city to a clean and tidy room.

Caught off guard and returning to his apartment, Chu Tang sat down on the bed with a blank expression on his face, and said, "The system."

The system cautiously raised its head: "Hey! What are the host's orders!"

Chu Tang said, "Record the following passage for your boss to listen to."

"Okay!" The system nodded immediately.

With a "beep", Chu Tang said slowly: "Hello, I want to report a problem to your company. Because of the sudden teleportation back to modern times, the identity of the host outsider was exposed to the task target, and it is very likely that he I feel your presence, whose fault is this?"

He spoke clearly indifferently, but a chill slowly hit the system's heart, and when he recovered, the recording had been sent out automatically.

Chu Tang looked at the red clothes on his body: "Since I don't have to be busy with tasks, then I'll be lazy."

It's just that before he reached the bathroom, the system hurriedly said: "Host! The superior said that your punishment has been revoked! As compensation, I will give you [-] points!"

……

Suddenly returning to the familiar city gate, Chu Tang who was about to take a bath: "..."

"The host is sorry, sorry!" The system hastily apologized.

Teleporting through two time-spaces one after another, Chu Tang's head was a little dizzy, his knees suddenly softened, and when he was about to kneel on the ground, he was hugged horizontally by a pair of strong arms.

His head was even more dizzy.

Xu Yi picked him up lightly, away from the blood all over the floor, his face was so emotionally exposed for the first time, and there was a kind of ecstasy that was lost and found: "Master!"

"Xu Yi," Chu Tang regained his composure, took a light breath, "let me down first."

It was only then that Xu Yi realized that he had been rude, obediently and gently put Chu Tang down, knelt down and said, "This subordinate has neglected his duty, please master to punish him!"

Chu Tang waved his hands, but before he could react vividly, a familiar breath came from behind him, and the young man hugged him with strong arms, his chest heaved violently, as if he was nervous and frightened, and his breathing was hot.

"Your Majesty." Chu Tang said quietly.

Yu Ke took a deep breath, let go of his hand, and then grabbed his shoulder to make Chu Tang turn to look at him. His hands were like iron pincers, and it hurt Chu Tang a little bit.

"Chu Tang," Yu Ke said in a deep voice, "look at me."

It's getting late.

But the dark madness in Yu Ke's eyes is clearly visible.

Chu Tang looked at him.

Yu Ke gritted his teeth, as if to tear off his flesh and blood: "What did you tell me before?"
