Chapter 13 Thirteen

"Yes." The soldier withdrew. The door closed behind him, and the room fell into darkness again.Fei Lian walked into the dark room alone, and heard someone breathing lightly behind the curtain, the sound was rapid and messy - the smell of blood permeated the room, accompanied by another smell he was familiar with.Fei Lian's eyes changed rapidly in the darkness, he brushed aside the hanging curtain, and walked over quietly without lighting the lamp. In the darkness, he felt someone move in the corner. "Don't be afraid, it's me. Fei Lian." He bent down in the darkness, held down the shadow that was trying to struggle, and called out the other person's name softly in time, "Xiang."

The black shadow shook instantly.As if she also recognized who the Ice Tribe soldier who came to interrogate her was, she began to tremble slightly, her green eyes flickering with complex lights in the dark—the two of them were relatively silent in the dark room like this, without saying a word . "Fei Lian?" After a long silence, the other party finally spoke, his voice hoarse and unpleasant. "It's me." He sighed, straightened up and went to the table to light the lamp.The light flickered on his face, and the major general of the Zhengtian Legion turned around and looked at his puppet with complicated eyes: "Long time no see... I never expected to meet you under such circumstances, Xiang .”

However, before the words fell, he was shocked at the place—is that Xiang?Then... that is Xiang? ! The merman curled up in the corner was already out of human form, as if she had been immersed in the flames of purgatory. There was not a single inch of skin intact on her whole body, but it was densely covered all over her body, making her look like she was struggling in the flames of hell The ghost of the call sign.What's even more frightening is that on top of those old wounds, there are layers of new wounds, bloody and horrific. The people on the ground laughed bitterly: "It's hard for you to recognize me."

Fei Lian was startled, and after a while he smiled wryly: "No, what made me recognize you was the smell of the moisturizer you put on your body." "..." Xiang was shocked imperceptibly. A long time ago, when she was Yun Huan’s partner and left her previous master to go to the country of sand, the person in front of her gave Yun Huan a box of ointment to prevent skin cracking, and asked her colleagues to take good care of this merman puppet all the way. .At that time, she was sitting next to Major General Po Jun, listening to every word and every word, although she put on a look of indifference like a puppet without sanity on her face, there was a great disturbance in her heart.Yes, among all the Cangliu soldiers, among all her "masters", he is the only one who is different.

——At that time, she already knew that after this trip to the Western Wilderness, she would never be able to return to his side.She betrayed him, the only person who treated her kindly, just because they belonged to different camps and had to fight by any means—she didn't hesitate at all when she betrayed him, the life and death of a hundred years had already made this the strongest female warrior Become a heart of steel. However, she never expected that fate would give her a chance to meet again here. At that moment, the stubborn and unyielding light in the eyes of the female soldiers of the Restoration Army dimmed, and they did not dare to look at him.

"Xiang, I thought you were dead..." Fei Lian sighed softly, "When Yun Huan returned to the imperial capital, he reported that you were an undercover agent planted by the Fuguo Army, trying to steal Ruyi Pearl, but died in Chishui while escaping .” "Oh," Xiang suddenly sneered, "Of course, he concealed a lot of things." "I know," Fei Lian shook his head, "Then the Senate found out that the Ruyi Pearl was a fake, and things took a turn for the worse." "Wishful bead?" Xiang suddenly sneered, his laughter hoarse and terrifying: "Do you know what is the wishful bead you got?" She raised her hand abruptly, pointing to her empty eye sockets, with a proud and decisive expression: "Actually, it is this!"

Fei Lian was stunned, looking at the hollow deep-set eyes, which showed an expression of shock, awe and pity. "Xiang, why bother?" He murmured, "Make yourself a ghost." "You won't understand," Xiang looked at him, with a sarcastic smile in his one eye, "Major General Fei Lian, the son of the Wulang clan! You who have been well-clothed and pampered since childhood, of course you don't understand the feeling of a mermaid. !—For us, being a man or a ghost is better than being your slaves!" Fei Lian suddenly turned around and stared at her: "So, can you betray and use others unscrupulously?"

Xiang was stunned by his tone, slightly stunned: there was a look of pain in his eyes, which pierced her heart deeply for a moment - it was the pain and disappointment after being repeatedly betrayed by the person she loved and believed in . "Bi's matter...you know?" After a long time, she asked softly. Fei Lian gave a brief low laugh and stopped answering. Xiang tightened her fingers in the dark, lowered her head, and felt her fingers tremble slightly—the brave and fearless female soldiers of the Restoration Army, for the first time, did not dare to look directly into other people's eyes, and just kept silent in the dark.
