The cold wind suddenly calmed down, and the night pearl suddenly lit up. The holy empress appeared in front of her, glanced at the two iron chains between her ankles, and said, "The tea is good, how is the person?"
The little girl stared at her vigilantly, but said nothing.
The Holy Empress looked at her and said, "I would rather give up the real dragon's blood between my eyebrows to help Chen Changsheng. Do you really think you can hide what you want to do?"
The little girl put down her teacup and said indifferently, "I don't know what you want to say."
The Holy Empress said calmly: "Whether you want him to fetch something for you, or help you send a message back to the Dragon Clan, or find a way to break Wang Zhice's prison formation, it is impossible, because he is too young and wants to satisfy you. According to the requirements, it will take at least two hundred years."
The little girl didn't realize until this time that all her arrangements were in the hands of this terrifying woman, her expression became more and more indifferent, and she said, "So what?"
"Chen Changsheng said a lot in front of you. Since you have heard it, you should know that it is very difficult for him to live past the age of twenty, so your plan basically has zero chance of success."
The Holy Empress said: "If you do something for me, I will release you in ten years."
The little girl narrowed her vertical pupils slightly, making her look even more strange, and said, "What is it?"
The Holy Empress looked at the dark and hard-to-see light with her hands behind her back, and after a moment of silence she said, "Help me find out who Chen Changsheng is."
The little girl was stunned, somewhat unable to understand what she heard.
Isn't Chen Changsheng just Chen Changsheng, who else could he be
"I want to know how old he is, what's wrong with his body, why Taoist Ji adopted him, and how much of what the Pope said to him in the palace is true or false."
The Holy Empress withdrew her gaze and looked at the little girl quietly. An indescribable terrifying coercion instantly enveloped the vast underground space, and the snow and frost on the ground gradually turned into powder.
The little girl's voice trembled slightly, and she said, "How can I know this?"
"Because he trusts you very much, which is very important." The Holy Queen looked at her and said.
The little girl seemed to want to explain something, and said anxiously: "I don't even know why he trusts me!"
The empress said calmly, "Maybe it's because he already talked too much when he first met you, so now he doesn't care to tell you everything."
The little girl was silent for a moment, then said, "It doesn't make sense."
The Holy Empress looked at her quietly and said, "There is one more important reason."
The little girl was puzzled and asked, "What's the reason?"
The Holy Empress said calmly, "You are not human."
The little girl frowned, a little displeased.
"If... the devil and the pope are in front of me, who do you think I will believe?"
The holy empress looked at her and asked, with a smile that was not a smile.
The little girl was very puzzled.
Worst enemy and most reliable partner, does this need to be considered
The Holy Empress didn't give her time to think, and said, "How?"
The little girl looked at the chicken bones in the oiled paper bag and the residual tea in the cup, blinked her eyes, and said, "Okay, I promise you, if you let me go, I will follow him and report all his whereabouts to you. "
She reached behind her, pulled out the iron chain, looked at the Holy Empress, and said seriously: "You have to help me break this thing first, thank you."
The queen looked at her and said calmly, "Why is it so troublesome."
After saying this, she walked up to the little girl, raised her right hand, and stretched it between her eyebrows, as if she wanted to caress the bloodline.
The little girl's vertical pupils shrank suddenly, feeling a great danger.
The slyness that flashed in her eyes at the previous moment has long since disappeared, leaving only fear and uneasiness.
Her black hair fluttered and chirped in the air.
Her lips parted slightly, about to howl.
However, she couldn't do anything, not even avoid the palm of the Holy Queen.
The holy queen's right hand seemed to fall casually, but it seemed that the heaven and the earth were in harmony, and it was inevitable.
There was a soft snap.
The holy queen's right hand landed between her eyebrows, covering the bloodline.
The little girl's body trembled violently, her face was pale, and her vertical pupils gradually faded, appearing in extreme pain.
After a while, the Holy Queen slowly withdrew her palm.
Following her movements, a black dragon shadow was pulled out from the bloodline between the girl's eyebrows!
The black dragon shadow was about half a foot long, with thin fingers, struggling desperately, but couldn't escape from the palm of the holy queen, leaving the little girl's eyebrows inch by inch!
This black dragon shadow is as real as it is false, as if it has life, but it is obviously not some kind of creature.
That is not the epitome of a black dragon, but a dragon soul!
The holy queen actually pulled the dragon soul out of the black dragon's body alive!
In the end, the black dragon soul was completely drawn out.
The blood line between the little girl's eyebrows became more and more red, and a full bead of blood gradually condensed on the surface, as if it really turned into a cinnabar mole.
As the dragon shadow was pulled out, the little girl became extremely tired and limp on the ground weakly.
The Holy Empress took a jade ruyi from her waist.
Everyone knows that the Holy Empress has two ornaments that never leave her body.
There is an ebony hairpin between her temples, the top is a little bright red, as if drinking blood, and the tail is damaged, it is extremely old, but it has never been replaced, because it is another hairpin that is the third in the hundred weapons list!
There is another accessory, which is the wishful piece that she wears around her waist all the year round, but no one has ever known the magical effect of this wishful piece before, it can be as good as the ebony hairpin.
The next moment, the Holy Empress poured the black dragon's soul into Ruyi. This seemingly simple action, even like that of a charlatan, is actually the world's top supernatural power!
Yu Ruyi suddenly came back to life and turned into a little black dragon.
The little black dragon lay quietly in the palm of the Holy Queen, seemingly weak, but its eyes were very strong, with endless hatred, staring at the eyes of the Holy Queen.
"You are a dragon, and your blood is innately condensed, and you can take away your soul. As long as the time is not long, it will not cause any harm to you. Besides, if you hadn't given up the blood of the real dragon on your own, even I would have no way to take away your three strands of dragon soul. A strand of it, so to resent, it seems you should resent yourself first."
The holy queen looked at the little black dragon in her palm, and said calmly: "You should be very clear about the cruel end of the soul that can't return, so go to Zhou Garden and do it yourself."
…
…
The spring night is as bright as the daytime, and the green trees under the starlight are even more vibrant. The Holy Queen left the well and walked casually in the rich spring at Beixinqiao, feeling very leisurely.
There was a car not far away, and as she approached, the black rhino pulling the cart knelt down in humility, or more accurately, in awe, and a middle-aged man with a pale face knelt down at the same time.
The long river of history is still flowing, some people have not died, and their names have not disappeared, but they are destined to become the most unforgettable scenery in this long river, such as Zhou Tong, it can be confirmed now that he will definitely be The most famous cruel official and treacherous official for tens of thousands of years, no matter in terms of the cruelty of the prison method or the number of ministers killed on charges of weaving, he can undoubtedly be ranked first.
In the impression of officials and ordinary people, Zhou Tong is a very mysterious person. Except for important occasions like the Great Court Examination, he usually stays in the quiet and gloomy office of officials in Nancheng, and occasionally travels. The strong man was accompanied by guards, and he rarely saw people. Even when he met his colleagues in the court or interrogated prisoners, he habitually wore a black veil.
Generally speaking, only women, especially beautiful women, wear black veils. Zhou Tong's eccentricity has caused him a lot of ridicule. Many people think that this cruel official is too vicious and shameless in his actions. Seeing the elders in his hometown, he has no face to see the world, so he covers his face all the year round. Of course, this kind of ridicule or curse will only spread in the dark, and it will never reach his ears.
People probably didn't expect that Zhou Tong was just a middle-aged man with an ordinary face, but his face was a little pale because he stayed in the prison all the year round and because he wore that black veil all the year round.
"Your Majesty, I don't know how to deal with Chen Changsheng."
Zhou Tong said in a low voice: "Considering the relationship with Li Gong, torture cannot be used."
The Holy Empress smiled and said nothing.
The entire continent knows that Lord Zhou Tong is the most loyal and craziest dog of the Holy Empress. Many people think that it must be a very obedient dog.
But this is not the case, because Zhou Tong knows dogs very well.
If the owner tells the dog not to bark, the dog will not bark. This is not obedient. On the contrary, if the owner tells the dog not to bark, the dog will continue to bark while listening to the movement outside the door. Hit you, but in fact I am still happy in my heart, thinking you are good.
This kind of disobedience is real obedience.
Zhou Tong knew exactly when he should bark, when he should be silent, when he should rush forward to bite, and when he should bite the throat of His Majesty's enemy directly.
The holy empress has always been very satisfied with him. Even though he has done so many evil things and has become an indelible stain in the orthodox prosperity of the Great Zhou Dynasty, she never thought of throwing this dog into the pot and cooking it. Let those who suffer from it eat it, because she is very satisfied that this loyal dog will not be as unfamiliar as Xu Shiji, and she doesn't even care about the evaluation in the history books, how can she care about the opinions of the world
"What do you think I really want to know from Chen Changsheng?"
The Holy Empress asked indifferently.
Strange to say, even after she came to power, she seldom referred to herself as Zhen, only in front of Zhou Tong. The ministers also used to call her the empress, only Zhou Tong insisted on calling her your majesty.
Zhou Tong said: "Since Your Majesty let him live till now, then you want him to say something."
Only the dead can't speak.
The Holy Empress said after a moment of silence: "I do want to know something."
Zhou Tong whispered: "Can't torture, or... use death?"
The empress laughed loudly when she heard the words, and said loudly, "I once asked Mo Yu a question, and now I can ask you this question as well."
Zhou Tong said: "Please show me, Your Majesty."
The Holy Empress said: "Do you believe that there are people in the world who are not afraid of death?"
Zhou Tong thought about it seriously for a long time, and said, "I don't believe it."
The Holy Empress smiled and said: "I didn't believe it before, but later I found out that some people are really not afraid of death."
Before Zhou Tong could speak, she continued, "People don't fear death, so how can they be afraid of death?"
Zhou Tong thought hard and couldn't understand it, and asked, "Why is Chen Changsheng not afraid of death?"
"Because he is a real person, a sincere person, and a true lover."
The Holy Empress looked towards the Orthodox Academy with her hands behind her back. There was another reason she didn’t explain—that young man was always accompanied by death—she silently thought, if Chen Changsheng could live past twenty, would he be so sincere and not afraid of death? Will he really become the second Zhou Dufu
