Zhenle smelled the fragrance and her stomach growled.
"When I hear the sound of your stomach, I know that you must be hungry, and I am very confident in my craftsmanship, and you will definitely like it." Lin Fan said.
He could feel that the friend he had just met in front of him had many stories.
But he didn't ask further questions.
He knows that everyone has their own concerns. If others don't take the initiative to bring it up, there is no need to ask, which may make others very sad.
When Lin Fan brought plates of delicious-looking delicacies to the table, Zhenle had little stars in her eyes.
"My skills are pretty good, right?" Lin Fan asked.
"Well, very good."
"Eat quickly, today's cooking is much better than yesterday's."
The communication between them was nothing fancy.
They are all talking about simple topics.
"Are you lonely here?" Zhenle asked proactively.
This was the first time she took the initiative to ask Lin Fan something.
Lin Fan said: "There used to be some, but now that you are here, you are the first friend I have made here. You come to see me every day, and I don't feel lonely anymore."
When Zhenle heard this, her face immediately turned red.
In this age where people get married at the age of twelve or thirteen, the meaning of what he said is a bit rich.
Who dares to say that our Lin Fan can't strike up a conversation.
If you are afraid of fatal words whenever you open your mouth, I will ask you.
Although Zhenle is only ten years old, she already knows a lot.
So after Lin Fan finished speaking, she lowered her head and ate without saying a word.
Lin Fan was surprised, was there something wrong with what I said?
It seems to be no problem.
With good friends by your side, you will definitely not feel lonely.
Just like if Lao Zhang or Xiao Bao is by his side, he won't feel lonely.
"Why doesn't your adoptive father send you out? Maybe you can be free." Zhenle asked.
"I don't know." If you encounter something you don't understand, just say you don't know. There will definitely be no problem. And he really doesn't know. That's it when he opens his eyes. How can he think of so many things?
Zhenle understood.
From her point of view, it was obvious that Lin Fan knew that he had no future, and the final result of being sent here was to die of old age here.
I didn't tell her this because I didn't want to tell her the unhappy things.
Every time he came, Lin Fan had a smile on his face, as if he had always been happy. This was to show her, because he didn't want her to keep recalling those unhappy things.
Thinking of this...
Big tears welled up from Zhenle's eyes. She had never met anyone who thought about her.
If she expresses her thoughts, ask Lin Fan if this is the case.
Lin Fan will definitely be confused.
I'm really happy.
You think too much.
"Why are you crying? Is the food I cooked so delicious that you want to cry?" Lin Fan asked in surprise. He had long suspected that the food he cooked was really so delicious that he wanted to cry.
Lian is like this, crying while eating.
At that time he asked Qinglian...
Lian, what's wrong with you?
Lian replied: Master, the cooking is so delicious.
Lin Fan believed that his level must be like this, and there was really no way to explain anything else.
Zhenle did not express her true thoughts, but just nodded, agreeing with Lin Fan's statement. There were some things she didn't want to say, so she just kept them in her heart.
After half a month, Zhenle will appear every two or three days.
Every time he came here, it was when Lin Fan was happiest and he didn't feel lonely at all when someone was with him.
Zhenle came here with a smile on her face.
For Lin Fan, seeing the little girl smile happily is the happiest thing. He feels that his efforts are useful.
For Zhenle, no matter how much torture she suffered outside, whenever she came to Lin Fan's place, her mind would be empty, as if she had been sublimated, everything seemed very warm, and she felt a sense of security.
She knew that the person in front of her was sincere to her.
night.
Zhenle stayed in her hut, flipping through the "Nine Nether Divine Code", with the gold leaves placed aside. Every time she got tired of reading, she would play with the gold leaves, as if Lin Fan had always been by her side.
Boom!
At this moment.
There was a rushing sound outside.
When Zhenle heard the sound, she was so panicked that she hurriedly hid the "Nine Nether Divine Code" and the golden leaves in her arms, and then pretended to sleep. She was used to this kind of situation. Maybe she was the forgotten princess, the last person in the palace.
It feels like the most miserable existence.
soon.
A figure broke into the house.
"Cui Rong..."
This is the only slave who treats her well in the West Palace. She is a few years older than her. Because Concubine Xian is too cruel, Zhenle is afraid of implicating others and will never get close to anyone. Cuirong also knows this.
So sometimes, she would secretly give Zhenle something to eat, and secretly report the situation, telling her where Concubine Xian would appear and not to go there, lest she get into trouble.
"Princess, hide quickly. Your Majesty met the Queen today and was ridiculed by the Queen. She is getting angry and said she wants to see you. Someone has come to arrest you. Hide quickly or it will be too late." Cui.
Rong said hurriedly.
Zhenle's face turned pale.
She was afraid of seeing the Concubine Xian.
This is an eternal nightmare in her heart.
And on this matter.
Several figures walked in from outside the door, and a gloomy voice came, "I have long suspected that someone would tip off the news. I didn't expect it to be you Cuirong. You are very good. Come with me."
Cui Rong's face turned pale with fright, obviously she did not expect this to happen.
West Palace Courtyard.
"Your Majesty, it was Cuirong who tipped off the news, and we caught her in the act." A slave reported.
"Spare your life, your Majesty, please spare your life, I will never dare to do this again." Cui Rong knelt down and kowtowed. She was completely panicked. She knew that her Majesty would never let her go.
The Concubine Xian waved her hand and said, "Pull him down and beat him to death with sticks."
"yes."
Zhenle pulled Cuirong, and then looked at Concubine Xian pleadingly, "Please forgive Sister Cuirong, she didn't want to tip off me, but called me over."
"Huh?" A smile appeared on the corner of Xian Fei's mouth, "This little slave has no respect for me. Beating me to death with a stick is an easy thing. Chop me into meat paste and feed it to my dogs."
"Your Majesty, spare your life, please leave a whole body for me." Cuirong begged for mercy.
"Pull it down, it makes your eyes dirty." Concubine Xian waved her hand. The humiliation she suffered during the day did not make her scream heartbreakingly, but turned into the most cruel method to take out her anger on these slaves.
Zhenle grabbed the robe of the Concubine Xian and said, "Mother, please spare her, I beg you."
Bang!
Concubine Xian kicked Zhenle away and said with a look of disdain: "My ears are dirty, my clothes are dirty."
soon.
Cuirong was pulled down, and with a series of screams, Zhenle's face turned completely white, and there was no other expression except fear in her eyes.
"What's this?"
at this time.
Because of the kick just now, Zhenle was kicked away and the books and gold leaves in her arms fell out.
"don't want……"
Seeing that Concubine Xian was about to pick up her things, Zhenle rushed over to pick them up, but was held down by the slave on the side.
"What a filthy thing."
In the eyes of the Concubine Xian, this is just a blank book with nothing recorded. As for this piece of gold leaf, it is also ordinary. She has never seen anything deep in the palace when she was favored.
"Dyeing leaves, huh...all these messy things."
"Give it back to me, give it back to me." Zhenle cried.
"Panzui, tell her not to cry, she'll be upset." Concubine Xian said with a frown.
The surrounding slaves took action directly.
Snap!
Snap!
There was a steady stream of applause.
Although this person is a princess, their master is the Concubine Xian. The empress does not regard her as her daughter, but as a princess. Moreover, even the emperor has never seen her, so who would recognize her.
Tears rolled down Zhenle's eyes, and she bit her lips tightly, not letting herself make a sound.
"Tell me, who gave you these things?" Concubine Xian asked.
Zhenle lowered her head and did not say a word. She would not tell Lin Fan. She had suffered too much and suffered too much in the deep palace, and knew that this place was like hell.
If Concubine Xian knew that she often went to Lin Fan's place.
Lin Fan will be in danger.
will be executed.
"Say." The Concubine Xian scolded.
Zhenle said: "I picked it up myself."
"Picked it up?" Concubine Xian sneered, "Just don't tell me. I'll check it out later. If you know who gave it to you, you'll be dead."
"As for these things... they are disturbing to look at."
Tear!
The Concubine Xian directly tore the wordless book to her into pieces.
"Give me the leaves."
Zhenle shouted that she just wanted to keep the golden leaves, which were gifts given to her by others.
But she still underestimated the illness of the Concubine Xian.
The more you want it, the less I will give it to you.
"You want it very much?"
"I want it, I just want this leaf."
Concubine Xian smiled. Her smile was different from Lin Fan's. Her smile was very sinister.
"Since you want it so much, I will satisfy you. Come on, pry open her mouth and let her eat all this."
The surrounding slaves surrounded Zhenle, and then they started to get busy.
Pry her mouth open.
He stuffed the torn book and gold leaves into Zhenle's mouth.
The tears in Zhenle's eyes have dried.
All the tears in this life have dried up.
When Zhenle was carried out by the slaves, she turned her head and looked at the rustling sound in the distance, which sounded like the sound of chopping meat. Her eyes were calm, without any emotion.
Zhenle, who was thrown into the house casually, lay on the bed with difficulty.
Curled up.
A terrible aura erupted within his body.
A door to decency somewhere.
A white-haired old man explained the affairs of the world to his direct disciples.
"The most terrifying skill in the world is the "Nine Nether Divine Canon", but now this skill has been lost for thousands of years. According to rumors, those who practiced the Nine Nether Divine Canon back then became unrivaled in the world and took people from hundreds of thousands of armies.
The head is like entering an uninhabited place, and no one can stop it."
"But those who practice this method will inevitably have their minds collapsed and fall into evil ways. They are the devil among evils and the king among devils. It is extremely terrifying."
The very spiritual young man asked curiously: "What happens to those who succeed in cultivation?"
"God has taken over."
at this time.
Zhenle's condition was very bad. She was covered in black mist, and the black mist had solidified. It was as if the air of hell was permeating the outside world, and as if some kind of terrifying existence was awakening in the darkness.
"Tao gives birth to one, gives birth to two, and three gives birth to all things."
"Tao follows nature..."
The rich voice penetrated Zhenle's head.
The black mist is struggling.
No one knew what was going on, everything seemed weird.
"Nine Nether Divine Canon" is a wordless heavenly book, and only special people can see the content on it. The one who successfully cultivated it thousands of years ago can also see the content.
But no one has ever swallowed the "Nine Nether Divine Code".
Paper that lasts for thousands of years is not ordinary paper.
The Queen lives.
"Empress, I heard the beatings and scolding coming from the West Palace Courtyard. I'm afraid Concubine Xian will be angry to death." One of the slaves said.
The queen was sitting there dignified and luxurious, drinking tea calmly.
A smile appeared on his lips.
Nowadays, the battle for the crown prince is very fierce.
Her son must be the new emperor.
Even if the son of a virtuous concubine is favored by the emperor, so what? They are already underground and useless.
Many people in the court were her people.
As for the remaining princes, as long as they are dealt with carefully, there will be no big problems. But we still understand the principle of being careful when sailing a ten thousand year ship. No matter what, we must deal with them carefully to prevent any problems.
The next day!
Lin Fan pushed open the door and went out, breathing in the fresh air and sniffing the tip of his nose.
"Smells so evil."
But he didn't take it seriously.
There are many flavors of evil, and you need to always pay attention to them.
Then, he opened his heart and embraced the whole nature, and the energy particles floating in the air continued to flow into his body.
A hundred times more energetic.
Very comfortable.
"Ah, comfortable."
After finishing his exercise in the morning, he went to plow the soil in a nearby field. Life was so simple, full of fun and happiness. He felt that Zhenle would come to him today.
noon.
Lin Fan prepared the food, put it on the table, and then served two bowls of rice, one for himself and one for Zhenle.
Then he held his chin and stared at the door, staring blankly.
"Strange, it should be here."
According to the previous time period, Zhenle would appear at the door, and then he would wave, and Zhenle would run in with a smile on his face and eat with him.
Let's chat by the way.
Although they didn't talk about important things, they were very happy. For Lin Fan, happiness is simple.
After a long time.
"Hey, the food is cold."
Lin Fan lowered his head and looked at the food on the table, picked up the plate and returned it to the pot to reheat it, then brought it to the table again and continued to wait there.
Maybe there was something delayed.
"Zhenle, what are you busy with?"
"It's not okay to not even eat."
Lin Fan continued to wait.
He just wanted to wait for Zhenle and had no other ideas.
A few years later!
The sun was very hot that day.
Lin Fan tidied up the courtyard as usual. After these years of hard work, he made good use of all the land in the courtyard that could be developed, and also learned to repair houses.
He didn't understand it at first.
But gradually I figured out what to do.
Sometimes, Lin Fan wonders whether he is a genius because he has learned another skill in just a few years.
at this time.
Lin Fan looked at the door. A strange old man walked slowly from the door, giving people an unfathomable feeling.
Lin Fan likes to fight against strong people when he meets them.
After all, we can learn from each other's strengths.
But the old man in front of him was not in the category of strong men. Lin Fan felt weak and not very good, and he had no intention of taking action.
"Hello." Lin Fan smiled, "What can I do for you?"
Lin Fan is polite and can greet strangers in a friendly manner.
"Lin Fan, after staying here for so many years, are you still used to it?" the old man asked.
Lin Fan was surprised and said: "You know me?"
"Of course." The old man looked at the surrounding environment and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, that's good. Even if you stay in such a cold place, everything is kept in order. It really doesn't disappoint."
The old man opened the door and walked inside.
Lin Fan was very curious, who was this old man?
Although I don't care.
But it seemed a bit impolite to just enter the house without my permission.
