Lin Dongjiu slapped his forehead, and all the nerves in his body immediately tensed up. He moved far away from the sedan chair, his green light sword in his hand ready to shoot out at any time.
These corpse puppets are already so fierce, the one in the sedan chair must be a big killer!
But...can corpse puppets also cry?
He frowned, feeling something was wrong, and then realized that the person sitting in the sedan chair was probably a living person!
Seeing that the sedan chair was about to be burned down by the flames, Lin Dongjiu raised his hand and the flames dissipated instantly. A strong wind blew, and the sedan chair was torn apart, revealing a bride bound by iron chains and wearing a phoenix crown and garland.
The little bride was huddled on the ground in disheveled clothes, coughing violently. Lin Dongjiu glanced at her casually, and saw that her delicate face was scorched black by the fireworks, and her big, watery eyes were also burned red, with tears streaming down her face.
Lin Dongjiu's eyes flashed with golden light, and he swung his azure sword and struck at the little bride.
"Crack!"
The sword flashed and the chains on the young bride broke.
The little bride, whose hands and feet were free again, had a face full of terror, she screamed again, rolled and crawled and huddled in a corner of the street, looking at Lin Dongjiu with a shrinking look, looking extremely pitiful.
This look was like that of a bullied good man staring at a rapist, which made Lin Dongjiu feel uncomfortable all over.
Lin Dongjiu ignored her and turned to leave, but was stopped by the little bride:
"Please... wait!"
Lin Dongjiu turned to look at her. The little bride seemed to have finally summoned up the courage to move towards him cautiously and asked in a trembling voice:
"Is... was it the young master who saved the slave family?"
Lin Dongjiu thought for a while and nodded:
"That's right. What's going on with you? Also, what's your name?"
After speaking, he looked her up and down.
The young lady's face turned red, she covered her chest in a panic and squatted on the ground.
Most of the wedding dress she was wearing was burned, revealing her slender thighs and large muscles.
But then her eyes dimmed again, and she cried and said:
"My family's name is Yin Xiaodie... A few days ago, my family and my parents went to Beixing City to do business. Who expected to be robbed on the way? My father and mother were both killed by bad guys."
Speaking of this, Yin Xiaodie's eye circles became even redder, and her tears couldn't stop flowing down.
"The slave family was afraid that their innocence would be insulted by those bad guys, so they wanted to follow their parents, but the bad guys knocked the slave family unconscious and kidnapped them back."
"When the servant woke up, he found that he was tied to the sedan chair and dressed in such a wedding dress that the sky was not responding to him and the earth was not working..."
Lin Dongjiu's eyes flashed with pity, and he took out a set of his clothes and a few spiritual stones from the storage ring and handed them to her, while sighing slightly:
"I have killed those bad guys and you are free. Take these and go home as soon as daybreak."
"Benefactor, where does the slave family have a home now..."
Yin Xiaodie wiped away her tears, bit her lips tightly, looked up at Lin Dongjiu, and asked:
"Benefactor, this life of the slave family was saved by the benefactor. I wonder how the slave family should repay the benefactor?"
"It's a pity that you are a girl, otherwise I would have become sworn brothers with you!"
Lin Dongjiu cupped his hands and said, "Farewell!"
Yin Xiaodie was extremely shocked. When she saw Lin Dongjiu was about to leave, she couldn't help crying anxiously:
"Benefactor, Nujia... Nujia is really capable, please benefactor, please take over Nujia..."
Lin Dongjiu sighed and pulled Xiaodie up:
"Well... I didn't think carefully. You are a weak woman. Even if you want to go back, I'm afraid you will be bullied on the road."
"Well, you follow me first, and I'll take you back when I have time."
"Really..."
Yin Xiaodie's eyes were full of surprise, and she smiled, revealing two sweet dimples.
"Follow me."
Lin Dongjiu walked towards the city, and Yin Xiaodie followed silently behind.
The two came to an inn. Lin Dongjiu led Yin Xiaodie in and booked a room.
Seeing that Lin Dongjiu had only opened one room, Yin Xiaodie lowered her head, with two blushes on her face.
Entering the room, Lin Dongjiu was about to speak, but heard Yin Xiaodie timidly say:
"The slave family... The slave family will go and warm the bed for the benefactor."
After saying that, she got into bed and huddled in a corner of the bed. She seemed to be thinking about what would happen next, and her delicate body was trembling slightly.
Lin Dongjiu: "..."
Lin Dongjiu coughed and said in a deep voice: "You will sleep here tonight, and I will come to pick you up tomorrow."
"ah?!"
Yin Xiaodie opened her mouth slightly, got off the bed with her bare feet, and started crying again:
"The slave family understands that the benefactor feels that the slave family is a burden, so he doesn't want the slave family anymore..."
"Oh!"
Are you still pretending? Let’s see how long you can pretend!
Lin Dongjiu's eyes were fierce, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a sneer. He strode towards Yin Xiaodie, reached out and grabbed the clothes on her chest, and yanked hard.
"ah!..."
The clothes fell to the ground, and two plump and plump snow rabbits jumped out. The crystal white jade body was exposed in front of Lin Dongjiu's eyes, but from top to bottom, Yin Xiaodie's skin was as smooth as jade, without any wounds.
His expression changed.
"There is no magic crystal, it is not a disguise..."
Lin Dongjiu quickly picked up the clothes on the ground and listened to her scream, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.
Yin Xiaodie's face was so red that she could almost bleed, and there were two lines of tears running down the corners of her face. She did not take the clothes Lin Dongjiu handed her, but had a look of confusion and grievance on her face.
She even swallowed: "The slave family already wants to repay the benefactor...but why...why does the benefactor still humiliate the slave family like this..."
"I..."
Lin Dongjiu opened his mouth, but ten thousand pieces of grass and mud were flying in his heart.
What a thing!
He had always been wary of Yin Xiaodie, thinking that the little girl who came to his door was a high-level corpse puppet.
He had also used Dragon Eyes to inspect Yin Xiaodie just now. As long as she was a corpse puppet controlled by someone or had any disguise, he could not hide it from his eyes.
However, after the inspection, Lin Dongjiu found that Yin Xiaodie was just an ordinary mortal, nothing unusual.
But Lin Dongjiu still had doubts. After all, everything that happened tonight was too coincidental, as if someone had set up a trap, so he still thought that Yin Xiaodie might have a way to shield him from the dragon pupil test.
I took her back to the inn just now because I wanted to use her to fish and fish out the mastermind behind the scenes.
But when he arrived at the inn, he suddenly felt that so what if he fished out the mastermind?
The current situation is not that the enemy is hiding and he is hiding, but that there are only a few enemies, such as Fengyinmen, Kunlun Sword Pavilion, Demon Palace...
Those assassins in black knew that they were sent by these forces without guessing. As for whether it was a coincidence that they met the ghost marriage, it is hard to say. Anyway, Yin Xiaodie's bait has no meaning anymore. Keeping it with you is a time bomb. It is better to take advantage of it as soon as possible.
Eradicate it so you can get out of here quickly.
But... what should I say about this wave of misjudgments?
You can't get married too, that's too fucking outrageous...
Lin Dongjiu could only slow down his voice and said:
"Xiaodie, please don't cry yet. It's... I was rude. I'm sorry. Please put your clothes on first."
Yin Xiaodie kept sobbing, silently put on her clothes, turned around and shrank back into the quilt, and stopped talking to Lin Dongjiu.
Lin Dongjiu sighed, sat on the bed next to her, flicked his fingertips, the lights went out, and the room immediately fell into darkness.
As time passed by, the sound of even breathing came from the pillow.
Lin Dongjiu breathed a sigh of relief. He did not sleep, but was alert to the movements outside while practicing, for fear of being attacked again.
Fortunately, after the battle at the brothel, the enemy seemed to be wary, and calmed down a lot, and did not send any more people over, but it was possible that they were harboring some bigger conspiracy.
I have to guard against it...
There was no talking all night. Early the next morning, Lin Dongjiu saw that Yin Xiaodie was still sleeping, so he quietly got up and left the room.
I went downstairs and bought two simple breakfasts.
When he went back, Yin Xiaodie had already woken up. She was half-sitting on the bed, pressing against the wall.
After Lin Dongjiu entered the house, she didn't even look towards the door. She shuddered and huddled her little head under the quilt, her delicate body trembling continuously.
"Don't be afraid, it's me. Come over and have breakfast."
Lin Dongjiu put the food on the table, sat on a stool and started eating alone.
Yin Xiaodie exposed her head and saw Lin Dongjiu. She felt as if her hanging heart suddenly fell to the ground. She took a long breath, but she seemed to feel a little aggrieved. She bit her lips tightly, got off the bed and sat down.
Opposite Lin Dongjiu.
Lin Dongjiu raised his head and glanced at Yin Xiaodie. She seemed to have slept soundly last night, and her originally pale face was a little rosy.
Yin Xiaodie lowered her head and took small bites of the bun. After a while, she suddenly looked up at Lin Dongjiu, and tears fell down again:
"The slave family thought that the benefactor no longer wanted the slave family..."
"Don't cry..."
Lin Dongjiu's head suddenly became heavy. He even planned not to go to Lei Guangzong first, but to send Yin Xiaodie home quickly.
I'm the worst at coaxing women...
"Here, have a cup of soy milk, it's still warm..."
...
After breakfast, Lin Dongjiu asked to go shopping, and Yin Xiaodie "reluctantly" agreed to go shopping with him.
Today, Crescent City is still very lively. Pedestrians rub shoulders with each other on the street. Lin Dongjiu is walking in front, and Yin Xiaodie is following closely. The distance between them is not more than half a meter.
Lin Dongjiu smiled and said: "There is a store selling jewelry, rouge and gouache over there. Don't you want to take a look? If you like it, I can buy it for you. Why are you always following me?"
"The slave family doesn't want..."
Yin Xiaodie's little head shook like a rattle, but her eyes when she looked at Lin Dongjiu were extremely resentful, as if she were looking at a heartless man.
Are you afraid that if you are not careful, I will leave you and run away... Lin Dongjiu cursed in his heart, thought about it, and took her to a jewelry store.
I have to pay for the sins I have done even if I cry...
When Yin Xiaodie saw the row of golden jewelry on the counter, her beautiful eyes suddenly became bright. She carefully selected these jewelry and couldn't put them down.
"Benefactor, this, this..."
Yin Xiaodie took out a string of bracelets and tied them on her slender wrists, as if offering a treasure to Lin Dong.
"My benefactor, this bracelet is so beautiful!"
She seemed like a child begging her parents to buy toys, but she seemed too embarrassed to ask Lin Dongjiu to buy them. She could only blink at him with watery eyes. Her pitiful look made people feel pity for her.
