Chapter 173: Unexpected

Ye Lingyu was very sad.

She didn't know what kind of life the prisoners in the prisoner of war camp lived, but she knew the identity of her hostage. However, she knew what kind of life her cousin lived. She was trapped in a deep courtyard and could only be accompanied or monitored by someone.

You can only go out for two steps, and you won't see anything for three meals.

New face. Like Ye Yinquan, the person who brought her food would not open the door, but just stuffed a plate through the lower end of the sawed-off door. When she experienced anything similar to this, she only felt more aggrieved.

, and would cry quietly from time to time when thinking of Yin Quan’s past life.

Compared to her sisters, her own situation may be worse. Since being taken away by Wuyonglan, she has been placed in a residence she does not know. Like a prisoner in a prison, she cannot leave half a step. Even she

There are no windows in her room, so she cannot tell whether it is night or day outside. All she can do is to judge what time it is based on the three meals provided by others, which is not necessarily correct. She cannot go out, even her sisters can see

The scenery has never been there either.

But compared to the environment of prisoners, her treatment seemed to be better than expected. The food was at least guaranteed, and although the content was not fancy, it was acceptable. Many poor people did not eat breakfast, and she was not sure if she had it, because every day

The contents of the meals are almost the same, and the time intervals are almost exactly the same. At home, she eats steamed buns, snacks, or light porridge in the morning.

The lunch was rich and the evening was simple. But here, the portions of each meal were almost the same. Anyway, she was in the house and didn't move much all day long. She didn't consume much and couldn't eat much. Until now, she only felt tired after three or four meals.

She is still under a lot of psychological pressure, and there is often a lot of food left. When she first came here, she was even afraid that the food was poisonous - of course, there is no reason for this.

Wuyongshi has no reason to kill herself now.

I guess so……

People are like plants, they still need to bask in the sun, otherwise they will become gloomy and depressed, as listless as withered leaves. She looked around and began to feel uneasy again. Her emotions were always coming in and out. This house is not small.

, but it is definitely not suitable for running. It may also be because there is not much furniture, it looks empty. There is only a table, two chairs and a bed displayed here.

, a small cabinet. The special thing is that the tables and chairs have no edges and corners, and even the legs are polished and rounded. Is it because they are afraid that she will hit her head or even commit suicide? There is a fire folding box, many candles, and a stack of papyrus in the cabinet. Could it be?

…Don’t mention it, the conditions are quite good, but poor places can only use small wood chips and small bamboo chips. Oh, there is also a latrine divided by partitions, and the bottom is dark and bottomless.

Chopsticks were not provided for the three meals, perhaps for safety reasons, but there was a spoon. She weighed it and did not leave the spoon, fearing that people outside would be suspicious. She broke off a piece of candle and threw it into the pit. After a long time, she heard "dong"

"The sound of water. So the place where she is must be on the first floor. This latrine may be a

There is a way out, but...well, it's so narrow that no one dares to gamble. Even if I can really jump in, I'm afraid there will be no way back. Isn't this boring? Isn't it going to be the first person in the history of the Ye family to jump into a manure pit and die?

People? No, forget it, even if you may die without a complete body and no one can recognize it, forget it.

It's not like Ling Huan didn't secretly observe the outside through the mouth of the food delivery man.

Directly opposite is the wall of the corridor, but this can't tell anything. She often puts her ear to the door and listens to what's going on outside. But she can't get any effective information. She can only confirm that at least there seems to be no one in this area.

, someone would only come over when delivering food. The person delivering food walked very lightly. She tried to judge the weight of this person, and concluded that this person was ridiculously light. When she was lying on the ground, she noticed that the person bent down.

, will eat

Pushing in, the hands were not hands, but claws. Ling Hu was startled at first, but soon realized that it was not impossible for him to be the shikigami of the Wuyong family. She tried to communicate, but no matter what she asked, the other party could not

He can respond and act as usual even if he is yelled at. He can't be deaf, right? Ling Huan thought again, that's all, maybe he was a fake monster that was made and couldn't listen to anything except the master's orders.

A rough estimate is that she was trapped here for at least half a month, just a little more. However, this conclusion may not be correct, because Ling Huan is unable to find a correct reference at all. Her life is irregular and she loses the correct reference.

The ability to judge is not impossible. No matter who it is, anyone thrown into a place without the concept of time will be as confused as her.

Something is different today.

Ye Lingquan didn't know how she defined "today" because she was still lying in bed at that time. She was sleepy, so she lay down to sleep until she was woken up.

It's a person - a living person.

The door that had never been opened was opened. Perhaps the door shaft had not moved for too long, making a harsh "squeaking" sound. The lights in the room were turned off, and the light from outside climbed onto the bench, turned over to the table, and fell to the

On the ground, she slowly climbed up the edge of the bed and brushed the thin quilt on her body. She was awakened, sat up slowly, rubbed her eyes, and looked at the person holding the candle in a daze.

It's not Wuyonglan - he has never been here before. This is a strange face, she has never seen it before.

However, this is also a man, and if a man appears in a room with only women, the latter will be frightened, which is natural, let alone a powerless girl who has been imprisoned for so long. Seeing her so frightened, the man slightly lowered his lower body and

Nod and apologize.

"I'm so sorry, girl. I'm so sorry for causing such a disturbance."

Ye Lingquan was completely energetic. She jumped up from the bed and stared at the uninvited guest. He seemed to be the same age as her friend, and his clothes, appearance and current behavior could be regarded as a handsome young man.

he

He has long hair, a long red-gold coat, embroidered with silver patterns, and a flute or a long flute or other musical instrument on his waist. What's strange is that under the light, his pupils appear blue, like the one above

It is as transparent and moving as good emerald.

He put the candlestick he brought on the table and sat next to it, keeping a distance from Ling Huan. Ling Huan sat up from the bed and put on his shoes, but he never dared to get out of bed.

"If this distance makes you feel at ease, I will sit here first."

"Who are you?"

Ling Huan hasn't seen a living person for a long time, but in the current situation, no matter who he is, she deserves to be wary.

"I am... a friend of the person who brought you here. He only knows how to deal with monsters and doesn't know how to communicate with people, so he asked me to take care of you. However, my schedule is not easy, and today I have

I came here to visit you. On weekdays, there are only lifeless shikigami here. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."

Although this man was very polite, Ling Huan still could not let down his guard. Rather, it was because he was too polite, which made him even more suspicious. Hypocrisy! She thought to herself that if it was really for her own good, she would not be left here.

, I just came to the door to ask for help, and what I said was better than what I sang.

Seeing that she was still nervous, the young man did not show any impatience, but still said in a good voice:

"I won't ask you how you are doing these days. If you are short of anything, tell me now and I will send someone to bring it to you in the future."

"There is no shortage of..."

Ling Huan murmured in a low voice. She thought to herself: I want the key to go out, can you give me the key? Speaking of which, I didn't hear the key or the sound of unlocking the door just now. Was she too sleepy?

"Are you serious? Girl, if you miss this village, you won't find this shop."

He smiled, still looking so gentle. Ling Huan then said:

"Then I want you to return my confiscated things, will you give them back?"

"Well, your stuff?" The young man thought for a moment, "I remember that it was also placed near here. Is there anything important in it? I can get it for you."

"..." Ling Huan frowned and looked at him, not knowing what to say.

"Ah, by the way - they found this from your luggage and gave it to me for safekeeping." The young master took out a book from his arms and waved it in front of her. Ling Hu immediately realized that it was Wan Gui Zhi.

, but the young master stuffed the book back into his arms. "Only this thing, I was told that I cannot return it to you. If you rely on it to escape, I will be in big trouble."

Ling Huan could only stare.

"But...it's not in the hands of Liu Yu?"

"Alan?" The young master tilted his head, "He said it was of no use in his hands and he could lend it to me, so I took it. I heard about you... your arm seems to have a lot of

Not bad power. Ah, but you can't escape this room because it's enchanted and the door can't be destroyed. Even if it's damaged, you can't get out."

Ling Huan was really angry after hearing this. No wonder there was no need for a lock. Should she thank him for the friendly reminder? Of course she tried to grab her hand in the gap under the door where the food was delivered, but she couldn't open it. She had supported herself before

The power of clinging to the cliff completely disappeared. It turned out to be caused by magic.

"Ah, wait," the young man said again, "I remember, you still have a small piece of agate? That thing is in Alan's hand. Besides these two things, is there anything else you want?"

"...then it's okay."

Ling Huan fell back and lay back on the bed.

The young master found it a bit funny and couldn't help but turn up the corners of his mouth. He patiently said to her kindly:

"Then, does the girl want to take a shower and change clothes? She must have sweated a lot these days, and her clothes may smell bad. I just asked someone to wash your clothes."

"I don't stink." Ling Huan turned away and ignored him.

Wait, does this mean...

"Okay then. I'll see you next time. I don't know when it will be."

The young man picked up the candlestick, and the shadow on the wall changed under the shift of the light source. Ling Yu suddenly sat up from the bed.

"Wait a minute! Then, I, I'll go!"
