The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

Chapter 176: Strange Things in the Theater (24)

Mu Hanxing felt reluctant after hearing this, so he frowned and said nothing.

"After Yue'er died, it was really hard to find a girl who was born on the same day as me and was willing to work as a maid in the Su family, so my parents searched for a long time. If they didn't find one, they wouldn't let me leave the house. So I never had any friends. There were only brothers and sisters at home. They looked down on me, and I didn't want to play with them. It wasn't until I was thirteen that several cousins ​​from the side branches started to covet my family's business and planned to seize the management rights of several shops. From then on, all my things would be mine, but I refused to give them to them, so they secretly asked my parents to embarrass their parents... Later, those people found out, and at a family banquet, one of my cousins ​​actually poisoned my cup."

Mu Hanxing asked calmly, "Was the new maid able to save you from this disaster?"

Su Miaoying nodded: "Well, later, a maid with a very cold personality came to our house. Her name was Su Ming. She was tall, with cold eyes, and she had some mediocre kung fu skills, but she was enough to beat up my brothers. Although she didn't like to talk, she would stand up for me whenever someone bullied me at home. My cousins ​​didn't dare to bully me because of her, so they decided to poison me... That day, my favorite pomegranate juice was prepared at the banquet. Su Ming found it strange and said that pomegranates were not in season at that time, so why did they prepare these suddenly? She drank the first sip for me out of curiosity..."

Mu Hanxing: “…”

Su Miaoying held her tightly, her body trembling slightly, and her faint crying voice was heard behind her.

This stretch of road suddenly seemed very long.

Su Miaoying continued, "Later, when I was sixteen, a new maidservant named Tao He appeared beside me. She had a very sweet smile and got along very well with me. I never treated her as a maidservant. I would play with her every day and secretly teach her how to write and keep accounts in the room. She was really smart and learned it in a short time. She said that it was because I was teaching her that she was willing to study hard... Later, the county magistrate wanted me to marry him as a concubine, but I didn't want to. My parents seemed to be possessed by a demon at that time. They said that the county magistrate's fate would bring good luck to me and the Su family, and that this marriage would bring great wealth to the Su family. At that time, my parents were deceived by the fortune teller hired by the county magistrate at a high price. The old man was in cahoots with the fortune teller."

No wonder... If it were her, she would also hate this kind of fortune-telling.

Mu Hanxing sighed: "Later, was it Tao He who married you? Because your birth dates are the same? In this way, the Su family would not have to lose their daughter and could still prosper?"

"Yes." Su Miaoying's voice was filled with hatred. "After the marriage was rejected, I thought my parents had given up. Who would have thought that they first recognized Tao He as their new daughter in front of the ancestors, and then tricked her into the old man's house... From then on, her life was like falling into hell. The old man knew that he had married the wrong person, but he didn't dare to offend the Su family, so he could only vent his anger on Tao He every day. After the old man got drunk one time... he beat her to death. She was pregnant at the time..."

Mu Hanxing's throat choked and his eyes turned red.

Su Miaoying cried and sneered: "But I'm not easy to bully. I've been smarter than any of them since I was a child. I thought of a way to kill that old man."

"..."

"The court has a lot of banned drugs. Once discovered, the whole family will be executed. I spent some money to send a skilled and trustworthy martial artist to put a batch of banned items into the old man's home at night, and then forged the correspondence between him and the Xirong people. I also deliberately made the letters look half-burned and left them at the scene, so that the court people would think that the Xirong people planned to use the old man to bring banned items into the court and control Ningguo." Su Miaoying smiled sinisterly, "Haha, do you know why everything went so smoothly? Because Emperor Ning has always been unhappy with him, and I just gave His Majesty a perfect reason."

Mu Hanxing: “…”

"Fairy sister, do you think I'm a good person?" Su Miaoying asked her from behind.

She was silent and did not answer.

She smiled and said, "I am twenty-four years old, but I have killed thirty-two people."

Mu Hanxing paused. The voice behind her seemed to sneer. Mu Hanxing carried her on his back and continued to run towards the light source. He only said, "A truly cold-blooded person will not remember how many people he has killed."

Su Miaoying on his back was stunned.

As expected of a fairy, she was so calm. Su Miaoying admired her in her heart and continued, "Our Su family has been loyal to the court since our ancestors, so we will let Emperor Ning send us orders, whether it's killing people or robbing goods. If we can do it, we will do it immediately. If we can't do it, we can find someone to do it for money, including... completely 'buying' the puppet show of Boguo."

Mu Hanxing was shocked and asked quickly, "What do you mean by buy it?"

"What I mean is that the shadow puppet show, which is a specialty of the Phoenix Clan in the Heavenly Realm and then specially made by the Lan family, from the raw materials to the technology as well as the artists and actors, is all signed under the name of Ningguo. From now on, there will be no more shadow puppet show in the Boguo Kingdom. People in later generations will only remember the birthplace of shadow puppet show... which is Ningguo." Su Miaoying said this calmly and even indifferently.

This sentence made Mu Hanxing feel even more horrified than what she had just said.

There was an unexpected sound coming from the front, as if a candle had burned out and a lamp had fallen to the ground with a bang.

Mu Hanxing quickly looked forward. The curtains around the stage in front had just fallen. There were indeed candles lit on the stage, but no one was performing opera. At this moment, the lights went out and the surroundings suddenly became dark again. The huge light source projected from the stage in front disappeared in an instant. The two of them were in darkness and felt as if they were isolated and helpless on a deserted island.

The moment the lights went out, Mu Hanxing's heart suddenly sank, and he subconsciously put Su Miaoying down and carefully protected her behind him.

At this moment, Su Miaoying looked at her seriously from behind, and suddenly, she thought of Su Ming, the man of few words who always protected her behind him, and who would bravely resist all bullying even with his thin body.

Mu Hanxing waited for a while, but she didn't hear any movement, and no guards came to kill and dismember people. She was feeling strange, and Su Miaoying whispered behind her: "We should have passed the danger zone. Although there is no light around the stage, we should be in a safe area, or maybe new rules will be re-activated."

Maybe she was right, Su Miaoying was indeed very smart.

"Then I'll go look for clues, you follow me closely." Mu Hanxing said cautiously.

Su Miaoying nodded and followed her carefully forward.
