Paradoxically, this was still the first time Lin Sanjiu had seen the "magic" in fairy tales with her own eyes.
Lila's scream still seemed to echo in her mind - this was already the second protagonist in distress - she tried to calm down, although she didn't know if it would be useful, but she still stood motionless in the shadows
, trying to slow down her breathing and heartbeat, hoping that the other party would not notice her.
The soldier guarding Cinderella's room had passed out long ago and was lying motionless on the ground. Looking through the crack in the door, between Lin Sanjiu and Cinderella, there was another person floating in the air, covered with
The back in the halo.
The man was wearing a gray robe. His hunched back was as high as a turtle shell. His dry and messy hair was gathered into gray lumps, hanging down from his back. A section of wrinkled skin was exposed under the robe.
, no better than hair. The transparent wings unique to fairies look like two dead fly stumps.
Although fairy has all the characteristics, no matter how she looks at it, Lin Sanjiu doesn't think the "fairy godmother" in fairy tales should look like this.
Because she was blocked by this figure, she couldn't see Cinderella's expression. Laila's shadow was like a drowning person, floating up and down in her mind. Finally, Lin Sanjiu pressed it down. She listened intently.
He followed every word of Cinderella in the room - "I, I know, but the person who captured me to the palace is not a prince at all..."
"Oh, dear, don't worry unnecessarily." As soon as the figure from behind spoke, Lin Sanjiu was startled - because it was clearly the voice of an old man, hoarse and old-fashioned, but still a little smooth.
: "The deal we made was so that you could be with the prince, and you paid the price. This goal will not change..."
When he said this, he seemed to have thought of something interesting and giggled like a girl for a while.
This obviously did not comfort Cinderella. Her voice was filled with uneasiness: "Well... I can trust you, right?"
The old man raised a hand, picking at his long gray nails, and replied: "Of course. Your request is to get rid of the past life and be with the prince... Don't worry, I never break my promise, although it's a bit
There are twists and turns, but it will be realized soon.”
"Thank you, thank you!" After hearing such a clear promise, Cinderella finally felt relieved. She breathed a sigh of relief: "This is so strange now, it scares me a little... Oh, by the way, you came to the palace for
Looking for me?"
The old man chuckled twice again, "...There is a poor young man who wants astonishing wealth and status but can't get it. I'm here to make a deal with him."
"Is he from the palace?"
While listening to Cinderella's casual questions, Lin Sanjiu quietly took a step away.
It's okay to say that she judges people by their appearance, but she is full of distrust of this old fairy. Why on earth did the palace steward and another person kidnap Cinderella? Just ask them themselves?
Although her movement was silent, it was very swift - not long after, Lin Sanjiu had turned the corner and was already quite far away from the room.
It was precisely because of this that when the old man's fairy voice reached her ears, it was a little unclear: "...Oh no, my dear. Because his... color is weird, and he makes fun of others in the circus troupe.
You were much worse off then..."
Lin Sanjiu's footsteps paused.
What color is weird?
A vague thought arose in her mind. It was confirmed in Cinderella's slightly surprised and raised voice: "Huh? It turns out that there are people with beards of this color in the world?"
Bluebeard! You can’t go wrong!
Listening to the old man's voice mumbling something like "a lot of wives", Lin Sanjiu's heart seemed to feel much brighter - she finally understood the context of this fairy tale copy. Presumably Blue Beard was
In Cinderella's palace, she made a deal with the old man and the fairy. She became a very rich man, and that's how she later married Laila and others...
Presumably, killing Laila and presenting her mirror to the king will only happen in the future in this "Cinderella story line".
If we can find Bluebeard and kill him first, then Laila can be saved in the future!
With a plan in mind, Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief.
The conversation in the room was still going on, and just then a jumping firelight came from not far away. She hurriedly picked up the unconscious soldier on the ground and quietly retreated into the corner. The two maids came one after the other.
Passing by her, one person was holding a plate in his hand, and the other was carrying a lamp.
When their footsteps reached the door, Cinderella's house suddenly became quiet. After a few seconds, her somewhat uneasy voice came out: "Who, who is outside?"
"By order of the steward, I am here to deliver dinner to Miss Ella." A maid said respectfully.
Ella is Cinderella's real name - in order to humiliate her, her two sisters changed her name to Cinderella, which means "Cinderella". After hearing this name that she had not heard for a long time, Cinderella seemed to be unable to bear it.
She was so excited - her voice suddenly choked up, and she sniffed twice before saying, "Okay, thank you."
When they opened the door, Lin Sanjiu's eyes followed and Cinderella was indeed the only one left in the room.
If she goes to find Bluebeard now, she might bump into the old fairy. Even though her combat power has increased greatly, she doesn't want to confront magic rashly - if she is turned into a mouse or something, it will be too late to regret.
——After thinking about it, Lin Sanjiu still set her target on the palace manager.
Although the palace is not big, it is not an easy task to find it floor by floor and room by room.
Somewhat strangely, the main rooms and palaces in the palace were now decorated with large black curtains. In addition to providing many hiding places for Lin Sanjiu, it also dyed the atmosphere in the palace.
Heavy.
Following the dark colors along the way, Lin Sanjiu came to the door of a side hall.
The serious voice that I heard once in Cinderella's house was faintly coming from the gap between the two doors. It must be the palace manager-what he said was not clear. Lin Sanjiu knocked him unconscious.
The guard at the door came to the door with gentle steps, pushed aside the black curtain, and put his ear to the door.
"...His Royal Highness, West Germany, please express your condolences and accept the change." The steward's voice sounded very low, as if the speaker was also immersed in grief. He tried to control himself: "Now that the eldest prince is gone, the future of the country depends on you.
…”
"Brother... his death was not worth it!" A young man's voice cut through the air like a knife. There was something extreme hidden in his voice that made people want to retreat. He said
After saying this, he seemed a little unable to continue. The manager quickly comforted him softly.
Lin Sanjiu waited patiently for a while, only to hear the West German prince cheer up and say again: "Has the coffin been built?"
"It's almost finished. Because I didn't expect this girl to be so thin, the previous model seemed too big, so I changed the coffin..."
"You are really too serious! What does it matter if something like this is big or small?"
The West German prince's eyes were red. Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a bang. Before his eyes could react, his body had been knocked down by a force, and his neck was tightly grasped. Even a exclamation followed.
The air was stuck in his chest.
It took several seconds for the steward to understand the situation. He took a few steps back in panic and drew out the prince's sword hanging on the wall. Before he could shout, the strange woman pressing on the prince calmed down.
Di spoke: "Don't scream! As soon as you make a sound, I will strangle him to death."
The manager nodded blankly.
"You just said you were going to prepare a coffin for a thin woman - who is it? Is she dead?"
Lin Sanjiu used her arms hard to hold down the West German prince who was struggling desperately. He was a young man with a high forehead and thin hair. At this time, half of his face was covered with veins - looking at his expression, it seemed that he would rather
Even if I die, I don’t want the woman in my body to succeed.
The steward was so frightened that he said "be gentle" several times, then clutched his sword tightly and said: "...the coffin is prepared for Cinderella!"
Even though he had more or less guessed it, Lin Sanjiu's face still changed slightly in shock.
"That woman is a sinner of this country!" The steward didn't know what he thought of, and seemed to have forgotten the red-faced West German prince, with tears all over his face: "His Royal Highness Peter, who is about to take over the throne of the king, has never met her since he met her.
From then on, I thought about it day and night...I even went on the road myself to find a girl who could wear the shoe across the country for the one shoe she left behind. As a result, I encountered an accident..."
Lin Sanjiu was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but relax his hands slightly. As soon as the air entered Xi De's trachea, he said hoarsely: "In order to find her as soon as possible, my brother was still on the road in the rainy night... and was bitten by a wild beast.
died!"
"No matter what, I want that woman to be buried with him!" West Germany's red face was tinged with blue, and his eyes popped out due to the brief lack of oxygen, as if he was crazy.
Rainy night...beast...
"Tell me the details -" Lin Sanjiu looked very unhappy and tightened his grip on his hands. As soon as West Germany made a short sound, the manager hurriedly spoke: "His Royal Highness Peter, he seems to have seen an injured person on the roadside.
The man was attacked when he went to rescue him! Beside him, there was a hunter with a broken stomach——"
That’s right——
The three stories were finally connected. Lin Sanjiu thought about it carefully. In this way, the story of Little Red Riding Hood happened first, followed by Cinderella, and finally Laila...
This was a big improvement - she took a breath and was about to take her hand back when her eyes suddenly stopped and focused on a familiar piece of furniture.
"Second question, who brought that silver mirror?"
Lin Sanjiu asked dryly.
Yes, that's Laila's mirror. (The novel "" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, and there will also be a 100% lucky draw gift for everyone! Open WeChat now and click the "+" sign on the upper right
