"What kind of medicine is this?"

"painkiller."

"is there any side-effects?"

"You will die after eating it for the first time, but not after."

In the underground prison of Xuanzhu County's prison guards, in the deepest and dirtiest cell, a middle-aged man covered in boneless mud looked at the small brown pill on the ground, his lips squirming: "Can anyone in my family survive?"

"After investigation, except for the seven children under the age of ten, it was confirmed that there was no misdeed, and everyone else had to walk through the public trial meeting." Mu Qingmei looked down at him with her arms folded: "Damn, they will all die, they should live. Yes, he will survive in the end."

"We won't let any criminal who needs to be tried because we want to make a deal with you, and we won't threaten your family because of this... This medicine is to let you hand over the payment of Lan's craftsmanship."

"If you are willing, I will call someone to come and record it and prepare a good meal for you by the way; if you are unwilling, just eat it—unless you are willing to walk at the public trial meeting in order to live for a few days. "

Hearing the word 'public trial meeting', the prisoner's body trembled.

He turned his head laboriously, looked past Mu Qing's eyebrows, and looked at the blooming white lotus that shouldn't be in the dirty cell: "Wang Hai Palace, can you guarantee that our Lan family's incense will not be cut off?"

Huyan Siluo, who was wearing a thin white veil, nodded and said softly, "I promise."

The prisoner stretched out his hand to take the pill and looked at it for a few minutes, during which no one spoke in the cell, until Mu Qingmei became impatient, and he gave an address: "...the Lan family's century-old craftsmanship is recorded there. It is in the secret book in the basement. The secret book has many special terms, you can just show it to the craftsmen, if you still don’t understand… just ask the Lan family who is not dead, over thirty years old.”

After saying that, he couldn't wait to swallow the pill.

Mu Qing's eyebrows flicked her fingers lightly, and a flash of divine spear penetrated the prisoner's brain, causing him to lose consciousness before he could even feel the pain.

She turned her head, met Huyan Siluo's surprised eyes, and spread her hands: "How can we have poison that will kill us if we eat it? It's so good that we've used it for a long time. But he took the medicine and died very quickly. , the experience is very good, there are no bad reviews, the effect is not the same, I also paid for manual services."

Huyan Siluo laughed, stretched out her hand and took Mu Qingmei away, and whispered, "Thank you for coming to accompany me."

"Aiya, why are you being polite to my sister? What's this matter?" Mu Qingmei patted her chest proudly, and added, "And you just don't see much of the world, so what kind of thing is this, I'll take it with you in two days. You go to see Ming Hong torture the prisoners, go to the shooting range to see the shooting, you have practiced any courage..."

Huyan Siluo's face was gloomy: "Uncle Lan... He was a good friend of my father when he was a child. He often came to my house as a guest, and even made a custom car for me to let me play in the yard..."

Mu Qing's brows froze, and she scratched her head in embarrassment: "Then...then should I leave him a whole body?"

"I don't mean to blame you. He has his own fate." Huyan Siluo rubbed her red eyes and said with a smile: "Although I haven't seen the second master torture the prisoners, and I haven't gone to the shooting range to see people. I was shot, but I haven't been left behind in every public trial these days."

"To be able to die so peacefully is already a great kindness to Uncle Lan. He also knew this, so he didn't even want to eat the last meal, so he just swallowed the pills."

"Live despicable and shameless, and if you die with peace of mind, it would be too unfair to those who have been trampled under their feet all their lives."

Huyansiluo whispered: "Actually, I should also end up with them..."

"Don't be stupid!" Mu Qingmei slapped Huyan Siluo's ass, the latter exclaimed, "You are different from the capitalist who can ooze dirty blood from every pore, you are just like us. partner."

"When you were willing to lie to Mr. Tie and protect us that night, I decided that you were my half-sister!" Mu Qing said with a grin, "Don't think that you are with those people. My compatriots, there is a saying, it's called 'out of the mud without staining'! They are rotten people, it does not mean that you are rotten people!"

"But since I was born, I ate delicious delicacies, wore brocade silk and satin, and were served by servants when I came and went, and I enjoyed the wealth and glory."

"When I was driving around the yard in the car sent by Uncle Lan, there were hundreds of thousands of children of my age struggling with food and clothing, including you, Qingmei."

"When you were displaced, I slept in a warm and comfortable bed, and my mother read storybooks for me."

"When the second master killed your eldest brother with his own hands, my father and brother celebrated my birthday, and the gift-giver stepped over the threshold of my house."

"While you were working hard and sweating day and night, I was holding a tea party with other girls of the same age, discussing what clothes look good and what jewelry looks good."

Huyan Siluo said these words very smoothly. Obviously, she has thought about it many times in the countless sleepless nights in the past:

"I used to feel at ease with all of this because it was my parents' love for me. But if their love is based on sin and everything I enjoy is based on your pain, then I have nothing to do with them. What's the difference?"

"Qingmei, your hands are much rougher than mine, because I have never worked. If my father is at least responsible for maintaining the stability of Xuanzhu County, then I am a rice bug with no contribution. I have all the glory and wealth in the past. I didn't fall, but now I accept your protection with a shy face—"

Sa!

Mu Qingmei hugged Huyan Siluo, Huyan Siluo heard her breath on her earlobe, the slight itching from her ear instantly stopped all Huyan Siluo's words.

"No one is born with original sin, and no one can choose their origin."

"Although the emotions of those beasts of yours aren't the same, I understand. Every time people live to a certain point, they will start to hate that weak self."

Huyan Siluo stretched her arms around Mu Qingmei's waist, lowered her head against her shoulder, and said softly, "Qingmei, have you hated yourself too?"

"Of course there is." Mu Qingmei said, "The first time I hated myself was when Ming Hong came home full of blood and told me that the eldest brother was dead, and I beat him badly."

"Actually, I actually hope he can teach me a good lesson. If I wasn't that young at the time, if my fighting skills were stronger, if I followed them... Maybe everything can be saved."

"It's just that Minghong is really too weak to fight back. I accidentally beat him to death."

"And the second time I hated myself...that night, across the ruins of Cape Gate, I watched him from a distance and said to us, 'Protect Yin Yin Yin'."

"The disgust for oneself stems from one's own incompetence."

"Every time you hate yourself, you grow up."

Mu Qingmei pressed Huyan Siluo's shoulders and stared into her eyes: "Congratulations, you have also become a dirty adult."

"but……"

"If you really feel guilty, just work hard and contribute to the reborn Xuanzhu County." Mu Qing said with a smile, "Don't feel embarrassed about this feeling. You need to go to the public trial meeting. Compared with those who suffer, it is the guilt derived from your inner moral law that makes Bai Ye willing to believe in you."

"Only those who have cried while holding a pillow," she gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Huyan Sluo's eyes, "can you learn what gentleness is."

"If you really feel guilty and want to do something to make up for it...then I'll charge some interest!"

"Ah? Qingmei, don't make trouble!"

Mu Qingmei turned Huyan Siluo around a few times, buried her head in her arms and rubbed her head back and forth, smirking while rubbing: "Siluo, you are so comfortable to hold—I don't know which beast you will give it to in the future with this great body. "Better me cheaper first!"

"Don't make trouble, let me down, you let me down!" Huyan Siluo shouted in shame, "It's almost the door!"

Mu Qingmei put Huyan Siluo down, and carefully helped her straighten the folds on her chest, and said solemnly:

"Wanghai Palace, you have to pay attention to your demeanor. If people outside see you come out of the prison in a messy clothes, I'm afraid it will not detonate the heads of all the witnesses, and then gossip will spread throughout Xuanzhu County tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, about you." Featured essays' will fill the newspaper's submission mailbox, don't increase my workload..."

Huyan Siluo stared at Mu Qingmei angrily, but Mu Qingmei looked at her with a smirk, and Huyan Siluo burst into laughter after a while.

"thanks."

"Aiya, why are you being polite to my sister! Sister, you stride forward, don't look back when you walk forward~"

Mu Qingmei suddenly remembered something and smiled, "Speaking of which, what do you think of Ming Hong?"

"Second master?" Huyan Siluo was stunned for a moment, and said, "He is a very good, serious, and mature man, and Xuanzhu County needs him."

Mu Qing blinked her eyes: "Really? Really? Then do you need him?"

Huyan Siluo's eyes flickered, she snorted softly, tilted her head to think for a while, and whispered, "I already have someone I like."

"Hey~" Mu Qingmei sighed: "Er Gouzi, Er Gouzi, it's not that I won't help you, it's really powerless, I've tried my best~"

Huyan Siluo covered her mouth and smiled: "But the second master seems to have someone he likes, right? I think he and Wenhong Doctor..."

"Well, I actually asked Sister Wen. But her answer was quite..." Mu Qingmei thought for a while before spitting out an adjective: "... wonderful."

"What did she say?"

"I asked her what she thought of Ming Hong, and she said, just treat it like a dog that comes and goes."

Huyan Siluo blinked: "Ah this..."

"Then she told me~lightnovelpub.net~ Dogs are actually very good, they can be kept at home, they can be scary when they are taken out, they like to lick people in bed, and they can be neutered if they don't obey... Anyway, I don't understand how she think."

"...It's wonderful."

"Wait!" Mu Qingmei suddenly stared at Huyan Siluo: "Who is the person you like? Could it be the one whose whereabouts are unknown?"

Huyansiluo shook her head: "No."

"That's good," Mu Qingmei breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly said something inexplicable: "I can't be a pillow for two people..."

Immediately, she looked at Huyan Siluo curiously: "Then who do you like?"

"I won't tell you."

"Is he the type that is handsome, good-looking and has a sweet smile?"

"Yeah~" Huyan Siluo tilted her head and thought: "She is a very narcissistic type."

"The person you like is so strange!" Mu Qing frowned and commented.
