44. Little Slave (2)(1/2)
She really wanted to dig her eyes. To draw this conclusion, Chen Yin's eye feathers trembled violently, and he looked at the girl who was smiling brightly in front of him. A ray of sunshine shone in through the window paper. It was clearly in March, but he didn't feel warm at all, but instead shivered with coldness.
This is not the first person to try to dig his eyes, and it may not be the last one. Since Xuanshuizhibin fell into the human world, his experience has not been good, and he has suffered all the torture in just three years.
He is not a human race, and he escaped by chance when his clan was destroyed. Due to his long growth period, the blood of the dragon in his body did not awaken. Apart from those strange pupils, he looked no different from ordinary people, and even worse than that of ordinary people.
This leads to the fact that even if he is caught and sold in the slave market, he is still the one who is left. He is not as strong as other slaves for physical work. He is not as sweet as other slaves and can say nice words to make people happy. He can't do anything well, and there is nothing else except that outstanding face.
Some people also thought about his face, but they dared not mention it when they touched his pupils. The strange pupils contained ominous meaning, and most people believed it.
He was picked and selected like goods for more than half a year, but no one bought him. The boss of the slave market also lost patience with him and pointed at his nose and scolded him with bad words. Later, he simply whipped with a slender whip and laughed at him rolling in the iron cage, as if this was a great pleasure.
His body is often beaten to pieces and is covered in blood. Without any injury medicine, these injuries can heal themselves in half a month. This super self-healing ability makes the boss of the slave market happy, and it seems that he has found a new sales path suitable for him.
Separated from other slaves, he showed him alone in front of others. He said that he could not kill him no matter how hard he beat him, so he bought a few taels of silver and had fun. Some people onlookers didn't believe it, so the boss pulled up his beard and handed the whip in his hand to the person who questioned him. He asked him to suck him whatever he wanted, and if he was sucked to death, he would be the boss.
Ordinary people usually don’t have such an opportunity to vent their vents easily. They waved their whip again and again. There was an excited and distorted smile on their faces, completely ignoring whether the tied slaves were dead or alive.
After being beaten by many onlookers, his injury healed in just half a month. Now those who were interested did not hesitate anymore and rushed to buy him back, and his value increased from the initial three taels of silver to eight taels.
The people who bought him back were all because of his thick skin and strong vitality, because
And let go of his hands and feet and tossing. Iron chains and long whips are common. Even worse, there are silver needles and charcoal fires. No matter how long his body is, he will not be injured. When he gets tired of it, he will throw him back to the slave market.
The lady of the Li family was his eighteenth buyer. The boss of the slave market saw that she was quite noble in dressing, so he must have been generous in his actions, so he actually asked her for ten taels of silver. In Shen Yin's opinion, he was a loss because he had never been sold for such a high price.
It is said that the time he spent in the Prime Minister's Mansion was relatively relaxed in his memory. Except for occasionally meeting Li Wan in a bad mood and he would whip him a few times, he was still free most of the time.
Chen Yin didn't expect that he was given to the girl who was acting in a flamboyant manner. Later, he realized that he was confused and fearful about the unknown. He didn't know what she wanted to do, but if he wanted to dig his eyes, he thought it was no different from those people before.
"Are you scared?" Seeing the young boy's eyelashes tremble constantly, Ruan Ruan felt novel. He pinched his jaw with one hand and moved forward with the other hand.
Feeling the itch from the fingertips, the girl smiled so hard that her almond eyes bent, and she bent over and kissed the young man's eyes. When the young man stared at her with wide eyes, she suddenly took two steps back and opened the distance between the two.
A small porcelain bottle and a long box were placed on the table. Ruan Ruan tilted her head and smiled on her face: "This is the best secret medicine for the court to treat trauma. This is the best secret medicine for treating trauma in the small box. It is good to use it quickly. The small box is a piece of wild ginseng, which can be cut into two slices to soak in water to drink."
As he spoke, his eyes flashed across the boy's thin body and he couldn't help frowning: "You are too thin, you have to maintain a better position, otherwise it will not feel good."
As soon as he finished speaking, the girl left gracefully, sitting next to the bed in confusion, with a rare confusion.
What does she mean? I don’t want his eyes anymore?
He limped to the table with his body, opened the porcelain bottle and the small box and looked at it. It was indeed the two things she said, not the prank of putting snakes or centipedes inside.
Slowly sitting on the stool, Chen Yin poured himself a glass of water. Staring at the strange-colored pupils reflected in the cup, his hand paused, and the scene when the pretty girl kissed his eyes suddenly poured into his mind. He was a little nervous, and his fair neck gradually turned pink.
In the next month, he never saw the girl who brought him back. Because he used all the medicine and the meals for three meals, the whip on his back and the injuries on his feet had been healed. He just stayed in the small house all day long and no one arranged for him to do his work.
, and therefore I feel more uneasy.
Chen Yin had never enjoyed such good treatment. He was worried that he would face endless torture. After a long period of panic and anxiety, someone finally summoned him.
Bypassing a long flower corridor and passing through the rockery and lake, the servant took him to a large yard. Large camellia bloomed here, and the garden was filled with spring scenery that could not be kept.
In the sea of flowers, the beautiful girl leaned on the recliner, holding a little book in her hand and smirking with her lips from time to time. She seemed to hear some slight sound, and she pressed the book down and covered it on her thigh. She grabbed a purple grape from the fruit plate and threw it forward, which hit the boy's left shoulder.
"I'm so slow, I can't come?" The girl lay lazily under the big tree without moving. The light that sprinkled from the gaps between the leaves was a little dazzling. She subconsciously squinted her eyes.
Standing at the door of the yard for a moment, Chen Yin walked over with his eyebrows lowered and stood quietly beside the girl, as if waiting for her next instructions.
"I'm thirsty." Ruan Ruan put the little man's book on the table aside, pointed to the string of crystal-filled grapes in the fruit plate, and signaled the boy to feed her.
However, the boy did not understand her intention and directly held the whole fruit plate in front of her. He pushed the fruit plate back and faced the pair of strange pupils with water. Ruan Ruan was a little more patient and raised her lips and asked, "Can you serve someone? Take off the grape skin and feed it to me."
Chen Yin understood this time. He put the fruit plate back on the table and grabbed a round grape and peeled it carefully. He had always been used as a tool to vent his anger. He was very familiar with being beaten and scolded, but he had never served anyone close to him like this. Therefore, his every move was very clumsy. It took half a day to peel the grape skin and pinch the flesh into a pothole.
The ugly grape was handed to the girl's lips. Chen Yin frowned slightly when he saw the girl. He thought that the grape in his hand would be thrown away in the next moment, and he could not escape punishment if he was not good at doing things. He was ready to be pulled down and beaten. Unexpectedly, the girl stared at the ugly grape for a while, but opened her mouth and bit it into her mouth.
The warm and soft tongue swept across the index finger, and Chen Yin instantly stiffened his body, buried his head in a panic, and did not dare to look at the girl again.
"Why did you stop? Continue." Ruan Ruan glanced at the boy who lowered his head, feeling helpless. She obviously had such a stunning face, so why would she always keep her head down? It was a waste of resources.
Unable to hear Ruan Ruan’s complaints, Chen Yin pursed
His lips were focused on peeling grapes. He was ripe again and again, gradually, his skill in peeling grapes has improved, at least he would not pinch off the flesh on it anymore.
Another peeled grape was delivered to your mouth. The girl, who was already a little full, turned her face and refused to feed her: "The rest is rewarded for you."
As he said that, he took the little man's book on the table into his hands, and looked with relish. The breeze blew the leaves on the branches rustled, and the temperature of the sun was just right, which made it feel a little warm. The girl tilted on the recliner for a while and stopped moving. The little man's book was covered on her face, as if she was asleep.
Chen Yin, who was serving next to him, was sure that the girl would not wake up suddenly, so he quietly sent the grapes that had been pinching in his hand for a long time into his mouth. He bit it and the juice was everywhere.
It was sweet, he smacked his lips and savored it. Because the skinned finger was stained with sweet juice, the young boy looked at his index finger in the sun. After a long time, he put the finger to his mouth with a strange expression, stuck out his tongue and licked it.
It was warm in the spring afternoon. After taking a nap on the recliner for about half an hour, Ruan Ruan woke up with her eyes half lifted up. As soon as she sat up, the little man covering her face fell to the ground. Just as she was about to bend down to pick it up, she picked it up with one hand and handed it to her.
Following the hand, she met the boy's beautiful eyes and was slightly stunned: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"No one asked me to leave." I haven't spoken for a long time. The boy's voice was low and hoarse, and his speech was slow, and he was not fluent in just a few short words.
"Aren't you a mute?" Ruan Ruan looked at him in surprise, and a light suddenly appeared in her eyes. Her expression on her face was as surprised as the first time she caught a glimpse of his strange eyes.
The girl stood up and circled around him, and asked with a smile: "Do you have a name? If not, I'll give you one? Dahuang, Erhuang, Xiaohuang, which one do you like?"
"I have a name." Chen Yin said with great effort: "Chen Yin, my name is Chen Yin."
Although he was a dragon, he was abandoned on the shore of Xuanshui since he was born. A kind-hearted old dragon took him in and gave him this name. Unfortunately, the old dragon died of illness when he turned into a human form. Since then, he has lived alone in Xuanshui.
Xuanshui is actually a particularly large sea area with all kinds of creatures inside, but the main ones live in the Jiaolong clan. The lonely Chen Yin thought about returning to the clan, but the clan members did not seem to like him. At first he didn't know why, but later he realized that abandoning him was the decision of the entire clan.
This involves a secret of the Dragon Royal Family.
The parents were born in the royal family and were legitimate brothers and sisters, but they made peace and were pregnant with a sinful seed. This not only concerns the face of the royal family, but if it was reported, the entire Jiaolong clan would be blind. They originally wanted to let the child die in the womb, but the child was not lost even after being tortured, but he was still born.
He should be killed as soon as he was born, but Princess Jiaolong, who was a mother for the first time, couldn't bear it. After begging, the clan members decided to abandon him at the shore of Xuanshui. Whether to live or die is left to fate.
He survived. But the growth period was too long, and the unique dragon bloodline in his body had not awakened. He could not do anything except transform, let alone protect himself. Therefore, he was always bullied by other creatures in the sea. After finding the dragon clan, he was beaten by them and drove away.
The little dragons also swam far away, surrounding the injured him, and smiled and pulled out the scales on his body. The bright red blood stained the sea water with a scarlet color. The pain was so painful that Chen Yin almost lost consciousness.
Later, the Jiao clan rebelled and suppressed the heavenly realm, and issued a slaughter order to exterminate the clan. All the dragons living in Xuanshui were destroyed. Chen Yin hid far away and was injured by the war. After falling into the human world, he found that he could not change his true body. Unless his bloodline awakens, he could only keep his human appearance.
Maybe this is fine. He originally hated his ugly true body and his unrecognizable life experience. The boy's thoughts drifted away, and when he was called by a soft and sweet voice, he immediately came back to his senses.
"Chen Yin?" Ruan Ruan repeated the name, and a trace of regret flashed across her little face. Although the name was fine, it meant that the name she named could not be used, and she felt a little bit of a pity.
"Chen Yin is Chen Yin. I don't want to move now, so you can hug me back to the room." The girl opened her arms and waited for the people beside her to reach out to hug her. But after waiting for a while, she opened her eyes and saw the boy's ears red, standing there like a wooden stake.
"What's the blushing?" Ruan Ruan's white and tender fingers poked the boy's chest, turned his head and looked at him carefully, his eyes were lit, and he bent his lips and said, "Are you shy?"
The boy's head habitually lowered, making it difficult to see the expression on his face. But his red ears had already betrayed him, and it was clearly shy.
The good-looking people do whatever they do. Ruan Ruan watched it carefully and was quite satisfied. She was rarely understanding and waved her hand: "That's all, I'll leave myself."
As soon as I turned around, I felt my body lightening, and the boy's arm passed through her
She carefully carried her up with her waist. She was thin, but she walked steadily at every step, as if she was afraid to shake her down. She walked into the door and placed her lightly on the bed. The boy with his lips pursed back to stand aside.
"Come here and sit. Don't stand so far, I can't even see your face." Ruan Ruan opened a corner to the side of the bed and signaled the boy to come over.
After hesitating for a while, Chen Yin moved over and stood there one step further, and refused to move forward. Ruan Ruan raised his eyebrows slightly, and without force, threw a sachet at the head of the bed, and held his elbow boredly by the bed: "This is the fragrance of flowers I like. I hope that next time you hug me, you will have the smell I like. It's okay, go down."
The boy held the sachet in his hand and retreated silently. He hurriedly returned to his remote little room. When the door closed, he felt his heart beating like a drum. He put the plain white sachet in his hand to the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, which was exactly the same as the fragrance on the girl's body.
With his face flushed, Chen Yin was a little at a loss. He stared at the sachet in his hand for a long time, and finally took a deep breath and put it in his arms carefully.
That night, a nice smell lingered around the pillow. The boy had a good dream, and a smile faintly appeared on the corner of his mouth. He dreamed that the fairy-like girl wrapped her hands around his neck, exhaled like orchids in his ears, calling his name softly over and over again. His fingers slid across the girl's delicate skin and fell on her red strap.
As long as he pulled open the tie, the girl collapsed into his arms without any cover. But he woke up, and the sky was bright and a few birds could be heard on the branches outside the window.
The quilt was lifted, and the boy's face froze. He shamelessly pulled the quilt back to cover his body, closed his eyes and relaxed his mind, and found a clean underwear to change into it. After dressing neatly, he did not forget to put the sachet beside the pillow in his arms.
However, after waiting all day, the girl did not send anyone to call him. She felt a little disappointed, so Chen Yin took the sachet to play with it, as if she could see things and think of people. Then she waited for the next day and continued to wait, and it was like this. His life was monotonous and boring, and there seemed to be no meaning except waiting for Ruan Ruan to summon him.
There is no one, no friends, and no goals. In his life, there seems to be nothing except the pretty and beautiful girl, so he especially hopes to see her every time.
However, such opportunities are not common. The girl saw him for a few times, at most three times a month.
And since she carried her into the room that day, she never asked him to hug her again. Every time he stood at a distance of not far or near, watching others fan and serve tea for her.
After three months in the General's Mansion, Ruan Ruan finally remembered to take Chen Yin out for a walk. The main reason was to change seasons, so she wanted to go out to choose some good fabrics to make two new sets of clothes.
In the past few months, the boy seemed to have grown a little taller and stronger, no longer as weak as he had seen him when he first met. However, his temperament became more and more dull, and she could not get a few responses when she spoke.
After picking two pieces of clothing he liked in the store, Ruan Ruan pointed to the boy beside him and glanced at the men's fabric in the store: "Don't be too squandering for him to choose two suitable pieces, it's a little more elegant and better quality."
Because I often visit this business, the store owner recognizes this as a lady from the General's Mansion. He dares not be a little bit contemptuous and introduces enthusiastically: "This young man has red lips and white teeth, and looks good in everything he wears. It just so happens that our store has a new batch of goods, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed. Why don't you follow me to take a look?"
Careful that his strange eyes would bring bad sense to Ruan Ruan. When he heard that the girl was going to take him out, he prepared a veil and covered his face. The shop owner couldn't see his face and said that his lips were red and his teeth were white, and he was just joking with his eyes closed.
Never bought clothes outside, Chen Yin subconsciously looked at Ruan Ruan. Seeing the girl nodding, he followed the store slowly upstairs.
When the boy was picking clothes, Ruan Ruan also took a look at the hairpin and rings sold in this store. It was said that all kinds of jewelry were the best produced by Jixiang Pavilion, but the price was not cheap and ordinary people could not afford it. However, Jixiang Pavilion was still a little far from here, so she was too lazy to go there and just took a look here.
As soon as he picked up a jade hairpin and looked at it, a sound came from the door. When he turned around, he was still an acquaintance. Li Wan from the Prime Minister's Mansion, the other was a man holding a folding fan. He was wearing a black brocade dress and a jade crown, and looked pretty.
If I remember correctly, this should be Li Wan's cousin, the current third prince. Ruan Ruan met at a palace banquet two or three years ago, and the third prince had shown good things to her at that time.
"Isn't this Miss Ruan? I'm really destined to be there, I can meet it in this way." Li Wan was smiling on her face, but in fact she had scolded Ruan Ruan hundreds of times in her heart.
She suspected that Ruan Ruan knew her cousin’s whereabouts and deliberately waited here to meet them by chance to win her cousin’s attention.
My cousin needs the power and huge network of relationships behind the Ruan family, but Li Wan doesn't know it either.
It will cause destruction. But this does not mean that she is willing to see her in love with her cousin focus on another woman, not to mention that she is extremely annoying to this woman.
