Under the cabin, there is still a man, a woman, a corpse, and a gamble.
Xiao Yi is very silly. Except when he is in battle, he usually gives off a careless look. He is so careless that he doesn't use his brain and feels like a child.
He didn't even know what the bet was, let alone what it had to do with explaining why Tao Qi married Fang Buer.
But he still took the bet, because Tao Qi said that if she lost, she would marry Xiao Yi.
Therefore, Xiao Yi nodded and agreed.
But he never thought that the eldest lady of the Tao family, who has been in charge of the Tao family until now, would lose to him.
Seeing Xiao Yi nod, Tao Qi's face glowed with a red light, a look that seemed to be shy but also decisive.
This bet was, firstly, to bury Fang Buer, and secondly, to give Chu Qing an explanation. But for this bet, Tao Qi would reveal her most unbearable side in front of Xiao Yi.
"Then... let's bet."
After Tao Qi finished speaking, she closed her eyes tightly, then stretched out her beautiful arms and untied the top of the red skirt.
His fragrant shoulders were exposed, and Xiao Yi's eyes remained unblinking.
Happiness, does it come so quickly?
But then, the fair skin changed color.
The shoulders and back, which should have been smooth and fair, were left with two scars that were almost deep enough to show the bones. They were so shocking.
Next to the scar, there are uneven and irregular scars.
Only flames can cause such scars, and such scars cannot be healed in a lifetime.
There is more than one scar, covering almost Tao Qi's entire back, even her slender waist.
The shoulders, back, and waist were all covered with scars from such burns. Not even a piece of good skin as big as a palm could be found. It was extremely hideous and terrifying.
Only the back and waist are exposed, which is enough to explain everything.
In fact, this is the reason why Tao Qi is willing to marry Fang Buer, because no other man would marry her except Fang Buer.
The scars are too shocking. Not to mention touching them, just looking at them is shocking.
When she was young, due to an accident, Tao Qi was left with scars on half of her body. The people who know about this can be counted on one hand. This is also Tao Qi's biggest secret.
At that time, when Fang Buer was performing the routine of a hero saving a beauty, Tao Qi's dress was accidentally torn, and the scar on her back was exposed to Fang Buer's eyes.
But Fang Buer still blocked the knife for Tao Qi, which almost killed him.
Later, the Tao family did secretly investigate the cause and effect. The actual situation was that Fang Buer knew in advance that those assassins were going to assassinate Tao Qi. He later found those assassins and spent a lot of money. Instead of canceling the operation, he wanted to cooperate with him to put on a show.
Heroes save beauty.
But Fang Buer didn't expect it. He didn't expect two things. First, the assassin made money at both ends, not only earning the employer's money for killing Tao Qi, but also earning Fang Buer's "down payment". Second, Tao Qi was very capable.
beat!
Six merchants and more than a dozen assassins went there, half of them attacked Tao Qi, and the other half ran out to create chaos in Tao's house while blocking the Tao family who ran to the main hall to rescue.
At that time, Tao Qi didn't have any weapons, and one of the assassins was very skilled. Seeing that Tao Qi was about to die, Fang Buer risked his own life to block Tao Qi's knife.
After Tao Qi found out everything, he did not fall out with Fang Buer and pretended to find out nothing.
First of all, during the period when Fang Buer was recovering from his injuries, his sweet words and sincere words really moved Tao Qi. Even though he knew about the assassination in advance, he almost died defending Tao Qi.
What touched Tao Qi the most was that Fang Buer said that he didn't care about the scars on Tao Qi's body, not at all.
In fact, this is easy to understand. Regardless of whether it is the head of the family or the eldest lady, in ancient times, there was no such thing as a trial marriage first. After getting married and entering the bridal chamber, one would see that the scars on the wife’s back were still the kind of scars caused by flames, and she would be scared to touch them.
, who can accept it.
So in ancient times, it was basically difficult for Tao Qi to get married. To put it bluntly, if she did get married, it would be a fraud. Those who are timid will tremble just by looking at the scars on her back.
.
Rather than saying that Tao Qi is willing to marry Fang Buer, it is better to say that it is a helpless choice.
If she doesn't get married, Tao Weiran won't be in charge of the Tao family, and no one will be able to walk around the world with his bare back. Let's see who isn't afraid.
Another one is that Fang Buer's mouth is really powerful, and his continuous sweet words moved Tao Qi, who was emotionally blank.
Tao Qi turned her back to Xiao Yi and showed Xiao Yi the side she thought was most unsightly.
Not only for a bet, but also to give Chu Qing an explanation as to why he married Fang Buer.
If she didn't give this explanation, she was afraid that Chu Qing would misunderstand her and that she was related to what Fang Buer had planned. The Tao family would be jealous of Chu Qing.
Tao Qi held back her tears. She was also a woman. Even though her back was full of scars, being naked like this to other men still made her feel full of humiliation.
However, there was no sound of cursing as expected, nor was there any sound of footsteps leaving. After a long while, there was no sound at all.
Involuntarily, Tao Qi turned her head, but the next second, she was stunned. The dress she was still holding in her hand slipped to the ground quietly.
Xiao Yi was taking off his clothes. His armor had been untied and his inner clothes had also been untied.
"Who are you showing off to?" Xiao Yi, who was shirtless, looked proud and pointed at his body, which was called a slut.
"Here, did you see that the knife was cut by Liang Thief, all the way to the bone..."
"Did you see this? This is an arrow wound. The arrow was stuck in the stomach. I cut it off with a knife and continued fighting without even frowning..."
"This is an injury caused by a fall. The horse lost its hoof in the battle formation. When it rolled down, I don't know where it hit my arm. It was bleeding profusely..."
"And this..."
"Look at this..."
"this…"
Xiao Yi is also covered in scars, which is an honor that belongs to the frontier army.
There are more than ten places, no less than ten places, big and small scars, big and small honors, every scar is a story, a legend.
Xiao Yi's face was full of pride, and then he said sarcastically: "I am not bragging about my scars with you, let alone you. No one in the border army can compare with me, so what do you have to show off?"
Tao Qi's eyes were wide open, not looking at the scars on Xiao Yi's body, but at Xiao Yi's resolute and contented face, as if he was trying to discern something.
"you…"
"If you show off with ordinary people, that's fine. Show off with me, haha." Xiao Yi patted his strong chest: "You have found the wrong person."
Tao Qi's expression looked a little silly, as if she was wondering if Xiao Yi also had a scar on his brain, and it would have to be a big one.
"You... aren't you afraid?"
Xiao Yi was confused: "What are you afraid of?"
"What's on me..."
Xiao Yi said impatiently: "Oh, there is so much nonsense, what exactly are you betting on? Come on, tell me, don't regret it. If you lose, you will marry me."
"I…"
Tao Qi couldn't say a word. She was sure that Xiao Yi was not joking. He really thought that he... was showing off, showing off his scars to him, but he was clearly showing his worst side. Xiao Yi
