Ling'er was locked in a cold cell, with her hands tied tightly behind her back by a rope, and she couldn't break free no matter what.
The air was filled with the smell of damp mold, which made Ling'er feel dizzy. She fell to the ground and closed her eyes tiredly, regretting it endlessly. Losing the gold medal entrusted to her by senior Li Xiaoxiao made her lose her mind and go to the door desperately to fight for her life. This reckless behavior not only failed to allow her to regain the gold medal, but also sent her into the tiger's den.
With a "creak", the cell door was opened.
Ling'er instinctively opened her eyes and looked at the source of the sound.
With a gesture from Tianzun, the guard’s men closed the door and went out.
"It turns out it's you." Tianzun recognized Ling'er at a glance. He sneered and said, "I let you escape by chance last time, but I didn't expect that you would be sent to your door again so soon."
< p>The light in the cell was dim, and Ling'er couldn't see the other person clearly for a while, but just from the low and hoarse voice, she could guess who it was. She struggled to her feet.Tianzun walked slowly to Ling'er, his steps were very light, and there was no sound at all when he stepped on the straw on the ground.
Only when Tianzun approaches can Ling'er see his appearance clearly. Ling'er didn't pay attention to him last time, but this time she looked at him carefully from top to bottom. He is very tall, wearing a black mask, and his entire head is wrapped in a black scarf, only two sharp eyes are exposed. He is wearing a black leather outfit, a thin black silk armor, and a leather knife pouch on his waist. There are six willow flying knives stuck in it. The knife jacket is a rare black color, and the black leather pants are paired with pointed black satin boots.
Ling'er remembered the coldness she felt when she was near this man last time, but now the man was right in front of her and she couldn't even notice the coldness at all. She looked at the man in front of her from top to bottom again in confusion. Could it be that he was the same man, but his voice and body appearance were exactly the same.
Tianzun felt a little uncomfortable when Linger looked back and forth like this, and his face turned slightly red under the mask. He asked nonchalantly, "Have you finished looking at him?"
On hearing this, Ling'er realized that she had shamelessly looked at the man in front of her for a long time, her face also turned red, and she quickly lowered her gaze and looked at the man on his waist Knife bag, he said casually, "You have quite a few hidden weapons."
Because Tianzun was uncomfortable before, he didn't look at Ling'er seriously, so he naturally missed the blush on her face. He touched the knife pouch at his waist, then raised his left arm, with his palm facing Ling'er, and said with a smile, "There are more than you think." His voice was still low and hoarse, but now there was a hint of doting. , I am afraid that even he himself did not notice it.
I saw Tianzun wearing black gloves, with several small throwing knives tied to his arm from the gloves to the elbow.
Seeing Ling'er's surprised look, Tianzun smiled arrogantly and said, "If I were you, I would have cut the rope on my wrist and left here long ago."
Ling'er saw the other party laughing. He put his head aside and ignored him.
"I heard this thing is yours," Tianzun said, taking out the Lingxiao Golden Token.
"This is my gold medal. Give it back to me."" Ling'er shouted anxiously. Only then did she remember that she had lost the gold medal. She had forgotten it because she was paying attention to the man in front of her. Ling'er frowned, feeling ashamed of senior Li Xiaoxiao.
"Gold Medal" Tianzun was stunned when he heard this. He has never heard anyone call the Lingxiao Golden Token that way.
"You robbers rob valuable things when you see them. You don't know this at all. "How important it is to me" Ling'er shouted sadly.
Tianzun looked at her and didn't know why.
Ling'er said anxiously, "Give it back to me quickly, otherwise I will "Me"
"Otherwise," Tianzun asked with interest.
Ling'er bit her lip but couldn't say anything.
"Haha" Tianzun suddenly laughed. Get up.
Seeing that the threat failed, Ling'er instead begged, "Please, give it back to me. I can give you any amount of money you want."
Tianzun sank. Face, said: "Little girl, are you seeking skin from a tiger?"
Ling'er said pitifully, "This is just a gold medal for you, and it can't be sold for much, but for me"< /p>
"What is it to you?" Tianzun asked curiously, doesn't she know what this token is?
"It's a promise. Ling'er replied seriously, "I promised you, senior, to take good care of it and never let it fall into the wrong hands." "
Tianzun said nothing and just looked at her quietly.
Ling'er was anxious and continued to plead, "So please give it back to me. Whatever you need, I will You can give it to me."
"What if I want your life?" Tianzun said tentatively.
Ling'er was startled, and then said firmly, "Okay, as long as you give it back to me. . "
Ling'er's answer was beyond Tianzun's expectation. The little girl in front of him looks delicate, but she can risk her life and death for a promise. Tianzun asked again, "Are you really not afraid of death?"
Ling'er lowered her head and said nothing. She thought of her grandfather, Uncle Ji, the two brothers Zixin and Zhong, and the unmasked brother Cheng. Her nose became sore and two lines of tears slid down her face. .
The softest part of Tianzun's heart was touched, and he stared at Ling'er intently.
Ling'er recalled his promise to Senior Li Xiaoxiao and said firmly, " I'm not afraid, as long as you return the gold medal to me. "
Tianzun was once again shocked by Ling'er's seriousness and determination. He took a deep breath, suppressed the strong emotional fluctuations in his heart, and asked calmly, "You are dead, how can I still fight with you? "You"
Ling'er sobbed and said faintly, "As long as you put it on my body and bury it together." "
Looking at Ling'er's red eyes, Tianzun couldn't help but approach her.
"Don't come over." Ling'er felt his approach and hurriedly stepped back, leaning against her. On the cold wall.
Tianzun continued to approach Ling'er until he was almost touching her body.
Ling'er could clearly feel the male aura on her body. , she knowsHe said what he was afraid of, and his body trembled slightly involuntarily.
"Don't worry, I don't want your life." Tianzun said slowly.
"What do you want to do?" Ling'er shouted in horror.
"Finally I know how to be afraid" Tianzun smiled with satisfaction.
Linger slowly raised her head and met his eyes. His dark eyes held a complex emotion. Ling'er didn't know what it was, but she was unconsciously attracted to it and couldn't look away for a while. From his eyes, Ling'er intuitively felt that he would not hurt her, and the scent of sandalwood from his body gradually calmed Ling'er's panic.
Noticing that Ling'er's disordered aura gradually calmed down, Tianzun thought to himself, "What a strange girl who is not afraid anymore." He lowered his voice and said, "Don't you know the purpose of this token?"
p>Linger shook her head without thinking.
"As long as you tell me who gave you this token, I will tell you its purpose. How about it?" Tianzun and Ling'er talked about the deal.
"Yes" Ling'er said, and he was shocked. She didn't understand what happened. Just because she looked at the man, she let down her guard, confused her thoughts, and almost said something she shouldn't have said. Ling'er hurriedly lowered her head to avoid his sight and said resolutely, "I won't tell you."
"Then you will never know the purpose of this token, even if I return it to you. Tianzun also noticed the change in Ling'er's attitude and said.
"Regardless of whether the gold medal is useful or not, I will keep it well." Linger will never compromise.
"This is the Lingxiao Golden Token" Tianzun stopped talking in circles with her and whispered in her ear.
“Ah” Linger’s surprise was no small matter.
Looking at her shocked expression, Tianzun knew that there was no need to continue explaining the purpose of the Lingxiao Golden Token to her.
"Senior, do you think?" Ling'er whispered to himself, "But I don't know anything except medical skills. Am I making a mistake?"
At first Tianzun was also surprised. , why Li Xiaoxiao would give the Lingxiao Golden Token to such a little girl, but now he gradually understands.
"As long as you tell me where Li Xiaoxiao is, I will return the Lingxiao Golden Token to you." Tianzun whispered, wanting to make a deal with her again.
"Now that you know about Senior Li, you must also want to hurt her. I won't tell you even if I die," Ling'er flatly refused.
"Who else wants to hurt her?" Tianzun captured some information.
Ling'er turned her head and ignored him again.
"It seems that if I don't let you suffer a little, you won't say anything," Tianzun said fiercely. Seeing that Ling'er was unmoved, he said, "You should think about it carefully."
Ling'er looked up at him and told him her determination with her eyes. Ling'er said, "Why don't you just kill me?"
Tianzun sneered and said, "I don't want to get the token back now."
"Will you give it to me again?" Ling'er asked, when she knew it was the Lingxiao Golden Token. , I don’t believe that the other party will come backreturn. I feel unworthy of the great trust of my seniors, so I have no choice but to die to apologize.
"If you want to die, I will help you." Tianzun said, grabbing Ling'er's throat with his right hand and slowly tightening it. Tianzun stared at Ling'er closely, seeing only her determination.
Feeling the cold hands on her neck tightening, Ling'er found it more and more difficult to breathe. She slowly closed her eyes, smelled the scent of sandalwood, and felt the tranquility that the sandalwood brought to her. And detailed. Before completely losing consciousness, Ling'er's last thought was "It's that person, because his hands are so cold"
