Chapter 521 Vine Kill!
"I'm also curious, who is the palm and who is the back?"
Zhou Ji tried his best to appease Hong Kui, but as soon as he returned to the bow, he saw Si Teng looking at him with a half-smile, and said coldly.
Zhou Ji said helplessly, "Don't make trouble here."
Si Teng rolled his eyes at Zhou Ji, turned around and stood facing the wind, looking at the figure in red who disappeared at the ferry from a distance, "Shall we get off the boat too?"
"Disembark? Now?" Zhou Ji asked in confusion.
Si Teng nodded, walked slowly past Zhou Ji, and said in a light voice with a bit of stubbornness, "Staying here always feels like being given alms."
"What's that saying?" Zhou Ji didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Seeing that Si Teng kept walking, he didn't mean to wait for him at all. Zhou Ji waved his sleeves and put away the wardrobe furniture arranged in the cabin and deck, and quickly chased after him.
During this short period of time, I don't know where Si Teng went, Zhou Ji chased all the way out of the ferry and came to a street market in Huating County.
Zhou Ji looked around, his eyes fell on the beautiful figure in the crowd, but when he was about to step forward, he was suddenly bumped into by something.
"Ah~! Yes, I'm sorry~! I didn't mean to."
Zhou Ji turned around, and it turned out to be a little girl carrying a vegetable basket, apologizing to him in a flustered expression.
The little girl may be distracted by some things, her eyes are dim, her brows are full of worry, and she doesn't know what frightened her, she apologizes repeatedly in panic, and doesn't even dare to lift her head.
Zhou Ji glanced at her coarse starched laundry shirt, and fell on her somewhat haggard face, and said softly, "It's okay, I didn't notice someone behind me, which disturbed Miss Yinping, is Miss Yinping okay? Are you injured?" ? Why is it here?"
Hearing someone say his name, Yinping dared to raise his head and take a sneak peek. Seeing Zhou Ji's familiar face, he remembered Mrs. Zhao introduced him at the tea shop more than ten days ago. He hesitated and said uncertainly: "You are Mr. Zhou ?”
Si Teng had gone far away, but Zhou Ji did not let go of his spiritual sense to cover the entire city, and searched her whereabouts like a carpet, and saw Yin Ping's frightened look, knowing that something must have happened inside, and said softly: "Listen! Miss Pan'er said, didn't you and Miss Yi go to Yingtian Mansion with Zhou She? Why is Miss Yinping in Jiaxing?"
"My Miss. My Miss" has accumulated grievances and fears for many days. Yinping's eyes were flushed, and she burst into tears. Just mentioning the name made her choked up and couldn't speak.
A little girl was openly crying on the street, and passers-by all looked this way.
"Don't cry, this is not a place to talk, you come with me first."
Zhou Ji rubbed the center of his brows, and hurriedly dragged her to the booth next to her to sit down, asked the boss to order two bowls of wonton noodles, and signaled Yinping not to worry, eat something and speak slowly.
The fragrant wonton noodles were brought to the table, causing a series of gurgles.
Zhou Ji looked at Yinping, who was clutching his stomach tightly, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, eat something first, and we can talk about anything after eating."
"Thank you Mr. Zhou"
Yinping couldn't hold back her tears again, sobbing while sucking the noodles, adding a few drops of bitter salt to the soup from time to time.
Zhou Ji sat aside, pushed another bowl in front of her and said, "Don't worry, eat slowly, here is another bowl."
Yinping suddenly thought of something, stopped the bowl and chopsticks, looked at Zhou Ji weakly and said, "Can I bring this bowl to my lady? She hasn't eaten for two days and two nights."
Although Zhou Ji only met Song Yinzhang once, he knew that she was a famous pipa player in the south of the Yangtze River. According to the first sight, she was dressed in gold and silver, and she was served by a maid, so she had to save some money no matter what.
How did you suffer from hunger and starvation, and fell to this point?
Zhou Ji learned from Yinping that after Song Yinzhang and Zhou She eloped, they formally married.
When I arrived in Huating, I began to pretend to be sick, saying that my old illness had relapsed and I couldn't go to Yingtian.
Then there is the need to buy medicine for pretending to be sick, and the need for funds to operate the business.
In short, I made every excuse to ask Song Yinzhang for money.
After a long time, Song Yinzhang became suspicious and asked Yin Ping to inquire privately, only to find out that he is not a wealthy businessman at all, and that Huating County is his home.
After the incident was revealed, Zhou She was furious, tore up the disguise directly, and forced Song Yinzhang to give him five hundred guan from the dowry.
Song Yinzhang's dowry was in Pan'er's hands, and he eloped with Zhou She without authorization, so he couldn't afford that much money.
At the beginning, for the sake of face, some people deliberately got some stones, covered them with brocade, and installed more than ten boxes and cages.
Zhou She didn't believe that she had no money at all.
In order to force her to hand over her dowry, Zhou She tied Song Yinzhang in the courtyard like an animal, beat and scolded her repeatedly, and even took away Song Yinzhang's most beloved pipa and sold it for money.
Yinping was crying as he talked, and at the end he didn't even have the strength to cry, he pushed the bench away and knelt down on the ground, and said bitterly: "Mr. Zhou, please save my young lady, even if it's just to tell Mrs. Zhao about these trustees. It's okay, please, please."
"Where does the scum surnamed Zhou live?"
A voice that was so cold that there was no fluctuation came from the side, Zhou Ji turned his head to look, and said with a smile: "Don't hide from me anymore?"
"I didn't hide from you." Si Teng rolled his eyes at Zhou Ji, held up the silver screen, and sat gracefully sideways on the bench, his cold and plain expression revealed a rare chill, "Tell me, where is that scum now? "
Zhou Ji once saw what happened to Si Teng in her childhood in Si Teng's memories.
As described by Silver Screen, they are like livestock, chained, beaten and scolded all day long, and can only keep alive by catching the rainwater leaking from the roof with both hands.
That nightmarish experience tormented Si Teng for a long time, and it made her unyielding, self-confident and tenacious.
Suffering and torture, crushed between the teeth and savored, but will not turn into tears. The knees are not soft, the head is very hard, never embarrassed, wear the tattered clothes, and do not forget to behave properly, even if you are knocked down, you will look in the mirror and draw your eyebrows carefully.
"Zhou Mansion in Jing'an Lane in the north of the city."
Yinping was photographed by Sito's unquestionable aura, shrugged his shoulders, and said weakly.
the other side.
North of the city, Zhou Mansion.
The unkempt and unkempt Song Yinzhang was tied hands and feet, and a five-foot-long rope was tied around his neck. He was tied to the lawn in the backyard in broad daylight.
Last night, Zhou She was being chased for debt, and asked her for money again, but Song Yinzhang couldn't get the money and was beaten again.
Song Yinzhang repeatedly explained that his money was kept by Zhao Pan'er. For so many years, Song Yinzhang himself had never received a penny.
The two pieces of money taken away by Zhou She a few days ago were only obtained by asking Yinping to sell the jewelry. Now she really has no money.
A hoarse and weak moan came from Song Yinzhang's chapped lips, like hysteria, Song Yinzhang suddenly woke up from a coma,
The severe pain from all over her body made her grunt, and her head fell to the ground again.
After two days without a drop of rice, Song Yinzhang saw a broken bowl on the grass with dull eyes. Although there was only a little water in the bottom of the bowl, she still let her lick her lips and instinctively moved towards it.
Because both hands and feet were tied, Song Yinzhang was injured all over his body, and it was difficult to even get up.
Song Yinzhang endured the pain and squirmed in Caoping, and finally moved to the bowl, the rope around his neck suddenly tightened.
I can only look at the broken bowl that is still half a foot away, hope is dimmed into despair.
She regretted so much. She regretted that she should not have listened to Zhao Pan'er and eloped with Zhou She without telling Zhao Pan'er.
Regret that I didn't see Zhou She's true face clearly, and was deceived by his rhetoric, which led to such a disaster.
The first time she was beaten fifty times by Zhou She, she fantasized that someone could save her.
The second time Zhou She whipped her eighty times, she imagined that someone would save her.
Third time, fourth time
The desperate reality broke her fantasy again and again.
This is Huating, not Qiantang.
Her life and death are all in Zhou She's thoughts, maybe one day he will sink to the bottom of the pond, who can save her?
Suddenly, a white and slender jade hand stretched out from the side, gently stroking her neck, the tight collar suddenly loosened, Song Yinzhang had no time to think about it, fell forward involuntarily, closed his eyes subconsciously, Head sideways to meet the coming bump.
Si Teng helped Song Yinzhang up, looked at the ropes tied to her hands and feet, only to hear two soft bangs, and the ropes were unbuckled.
Song Yinzhang's hands and feet were numb due to blocked blood vessels, and he didn't even feel anything.
The aroma of the wonton noodles just out of the pot aroused Song Yinzhang's dull and empty consciousness. When she came to her senses, she slowed her eyes and couldn't help swallowing saliva looking at the steaming wonton noodles in front of her.
"Yinping is watching out, don't be afraid, Miss Yinzhang, we are here to save you."
Zhou Ji put the wonton noodles next to Song Yinzhang, and only then did Song Yinzhang notice the two extra figures in front of him. He thought that she had dried up her tears in the past few days, but at this moment, her eyes were still wet, and the dry tears were stained .
"Mr. Zhou Ji? Miss Si Teng? Are you here to save me?"
Song Yinzhang finally came to his senses, quickly grabbed Si Teng's hands, and begged: "Then take me away now, please take me away now."
Si Teng didn't care about Song Yinzhang's hands covered in mud and dirt. The white and flawless Rou Yi in turn gently held Song Yinzhang's palm, rubbing it to give her peace of mind and comfort.
"Not yet."
"Why?" Song Yinzhang asked anxiously.
"Leaving here is naturally easy."
Si Teng's face was as sinking as water, and his black and white eyes were a bit cold, and he said: "But if you just run away like this, are you willing? Forget the money you were cheated of? The grievances you have suffered these days, Just admit it like this? Zhou She's atrocities these days, are you going to endure it like this?"
"No!" Song Yinzhang shook his head quickly, clenched Si Teng's hands, and said unwillingly: "It's fine if he tricked me into beating me, he sold my 'Guyue' pipa too! And my piano score, too. Burned by him. You must let him suffer retribution, you must!"
"Of course!" Si Teng's eyes showed a cold look, and he said in a deep voice, "It's not a pity for this kind of scum to die, and he must pay the price."
Seeing Song Yinzhang's misery, Si Teng was already moved to kill, but she also knew that Zhou Ji seldom killed people, and he attached great importance to human life.
So she raised her eyes to look at Zhou Ji, her cold eyes already showed her determination.
Zhou Ji coughed lightly, and immediately expressed his opinion: "It is not a pity for this kind of scum to die, even if you don't do it, I will not spare his life."
Song Yinzhang heard what the two said, and thought of them sneaking into the Zhou mansion to save people, and thought they were the rangers recorded in the book.
Hungry, she finished eating the wonton noodles brought by Zhou Ji. Although she didn't completely fill her stomach, she finally regained some energy and strength.
At this moment, there was a dispute outside the yard, Yinping opened her arms to try to stop Zhou She from rushing in, but how could she block Zhou She with her body.
When Song Yinzhang heard his voice and saw his figure, the scars all over his body seemed to be in pain again, he shrank back in panic, and the courage he had summoned began to waver involuntarily.
"Miss Yinzhang, don't be afraid, we are here." Zhou Ji pretended to take out a few bottles of wound medicine from his sleeve and handed them to Song Yinzhang, and said nonchalantly, "Go to the back to freshen up and change your clothes, right? There are still some wounds here. You take the medicine first."
Song Yinzhang stopped after a few steps, and couldn't help but look back at the two of them. Although he was a little nervous, he still chose to trust them and walked towards the backyard wing.
"Who are you! How dare you break into a private house! Aren't you afraid that I will report to the government?"
Seeing that Yinping dared to stop him, Zhou She had a faint feeling that something was wrong. He forced his way into the backyard and found two strange figures in the corridor. , walked quickly towards the promenade, glanced at the deserted grassland where the rope was broken, and said sternly.
"Yinping, you go down first." Zhou Ji pretended to ignore it, and signaled Yinping to back down.
Zhou Ji waved his sleeves to summon a light blue barrier of true energy, covering the entire courtyard.
Si Teng opened his palm, and a cluster of slender vines floated out from his fingertips, spread out like plankton in the deep sea, and floated towards Zhou She.
"What is this? Black art! Black art!"
The scene in front of him made Zhou She's hair stand on end, especially when he saw the wisp of vine fluttering in the air, looking like a living thing, Zhou She only felt the chill rushing from his heels to the top of the sky, and subconsciously wanted to escape, but he couldn't even lift his foot. Can't do it.
Zhou She looked down, and the weeds grew wildly under his feet, wrapping around his feet like living things, nailing him firmly in place.
"Come here! Help! Help"
Before Zhou She could finish speaking, the vines of deep sea jellyfish swished into his mouth.
The pain of vine killing is comparable to a hundred claws scratching one's heart.
Sito's outstretched palms were closed to form claws.
Hearing a miserable cry of pain, Zhou She's heart seemed to be tightly wrapped by a big net full of blades, the blades twisted back and forth, the unbearable pain made his face purple, and the veins on his neck bulged. He covered his heart and let out a stern roar, rolling back and forth on the ground but it couldn't relieve the pain at all.
In less than a moment, Zhou She's whole body was soaked in sweat, his face was bloodless, and he felt that life would be worse than death.
