Chapter 313 Heavy Snow in Jingzhou
"Let...let Arou go. You can kill her or chop her up as you please. She is just a child and poses no threat to you." Su Wan's voice was hoarse, like a person who had been dry in the desert for half a month.
Although there was water everywhere, they did not give Su Wan a single drop of water.
He was tied here and couldn't move his body freely.
A cunning look flashed in the eyes of the desert man, and he grabbed the chain and lifted "Shu Rou" up.
"Su Rou" showed a look of pain, and Su Wan's reaction became even more violent.
"She's just a child! She poses no threat to you! Let her go!" He roared hysterically from his throat.
A hint of viciousness flashed in the desert man's eyes, "You want her to live? Beg me."
Su Wanhao didn't care about his face and said humbly, "I beg you..."
He is now old and no longer has the vigor and enthusiasm he had when he led his troops to attack the Southern Kingdom.
He is no longer able to protect Arou, so what if he loses face?
As long as Ah Rou can survive...
"Hahaha."
Su Wan's appearance pleased the man.
The man's laughter echoed in the prison.
"Come here, take him to the slave farm. I'm a bit bored, so I'll use him to kill time."
Su Wan frowned, "You...just now, you promised to let Arou go."
The man smiled and said, "How about this? If you can defeat those slaves in the slave farm, I will release her. I mean what I say."
Su Wan knew that what this desert person said was not countable at all. Even if he agreed...
Even if he could defeat the slaves, these people would not let them go.
But at least he could give Ah Rou a glimmer of hope...
"it is good."
Each tribe in the desert has its own king, and each tribe has a different way of leading.
As for Su Wan, he only felt that the environment he was in now was extremely cruel and evil!
His clothes were stripped off, leaving him only in a pair of trousers.
In the huge venue, there are countless men like him.
The stands made of wooden frames around were packed with people from the desert who came to watch the excitement.
Su Wan knew that in the desert, in addition to the royal family who were of noble birth, there were also poor people who had lived outside the desert since birth.
These poor people lived a hard life and were just a group of slaves in the eyes of those high-ranking people in the desert.
The wounds on his body made him shiver with pain. When he looked up again, he saw the man from the desert again in the distance.
The man picked up the chain in his hand and hung up "Su Rou" at the other end.
This action is threatening him with Arou's life...
Su Wan frowned. This was all because he was not as skilled as others. Now that he was old and in a bad shape, he actually let them capture him and Arou...
Thinking of the time when the desert people cut a hole in his stomach, the fear was still vivid in his mind.
His eyes were stern, he had to fight...
The next second, someone hugged him from behind around the waist and rushed forward, hitting his body against the wall.
There was no sound of fighting in the field, but the slaves around him were already fighting each other.
It turns out that it had already started when they were put here.
The man looked at Su Wan's figure and said coldly, "None of the people sent to Jingzhou have returned. Go and see what's going on. If nothing unexpected happens, the people guarding there should be from the Gong family. But Gong Yu doesn't have the ability to compete with the Tapir. If he finds their leader, he will kill him directly and then return to the Southern Kingdom to continue to take over Su Rou's identity."
"Su Rou" looked at Su Wan who was fighting in the middle, "..."
Retracting her gaze, she responded obediently, "Yes, Master."
After a fierce battle, Su Wan was covered in blood and stood among a group of corpses.
He could no longer wave his hands.
The corner of the man's mouth showed an inexplicable curve.
“I actually won.”
Su Wan finally fell to the ground. When he woke up, he was locked up back in prison.
"Awake? I've already sent someone to take Su Rou away as you said."
The man's voice quickly woke Su Wan up.
Su Wan said, "Did you really let her go?"
He also didn't see with his own eyes that Arou was released by them.
What if Ah Rou had been killed by them? What if they lied to me?!
The man pointed at Su Wan and said, "She bandaged the wound on your body with her own hands. If I hadn't really let her go, would I have agreed to let her do such a thing?"
Su Wan lowered his head and found that he was wrapped in white cloth. He was covered in dirt before he fainted, but now it had been cleaned up.
Only Arou would help him treat his injuries.
But how could these people in the desert agree to let Arou do this?
The man seemed to see what he was thinking, "You'll still be useful to us if we keep you here, so we let Su Rou go and agreed to let her treat your injuries."
but……
Could it be that she really thought of herself as Su Rou, so she dared to say such things to herself?
The man's face couldn't help but become solemn. A slave is indeed a slave. Whoever treats her well will be treated as her master.
It snowed heavily in Jingzhou.
Su Rou stood in the yard wearing a fur-collared cloak and reached out to catch a snowflake.
The icy touch turned into a jar of water the moment it touched her palm.
"Don't catch a cold. Play for a while and then go inside to keep warm," said the madam.
The old woman was also standing nearby.
"Okay, it's a bit cold, but I haven't seen snow for a long time." Su Rou is already this age, but she is still like a child.
Speaking of which, Gong Yu promised to help her find Meng, but there has been no news until now.
Where on earth did Meng go?
The madam reached out and brushed the snow off the brim of her hat. "You've gained some weight lately. You're not as fat as before."
Su Rou said, "Of course. I exercise with Deputy General Huang every day. I've grown more than just flesh, my body has also become much stronger."
The old woman said, "Girl, someone is coming."
As soon as the old woman finished speaking, Su Rou saw two figures appear in front of the gate in the heavy snow.
They were two strangers who had never met each other.
Su Rou said, "Go back to your room. You should come to talk to Gong Yu about something."
The warm current in the room rushed towards me, colliding with the cold air outside, as if forming an air wall.
The injury on her shoulder had healed, and it was time for her to go find Gong Yu and ask him to take her to the South.
She failed to reach an agreement with Gong Yu that day, and later she sneaked out on her own. Before she left Jingzhou, she was caught by Gong Yu and brought back.
Gong Yu promised her that he would take her to the South as long as her wounds scabbed off, recovered completely, and she no longer felt pain when moving.
Although Su Rou was unwilling, she had no choice.
With Gong Yu's ability, it is not impossible for him to seal off Jingzhou and prevent her from flying out.
The servants in the mansion brought a brazier, and Su Rou felt very comfortable sitting around the brazier to keep warm.
"It seems like this thing would feel better if it were roasted."
The madam asked, "What would you like to roast?"
The old woman said, "There's a bag of sweet potatoes in Lieutenant General Huang's room in the west. I saw some soldiers carrying it there early this morning."
Lieutenant General Huang eats and sleeps with the soldiers. Su Rou thought about it.
Do you want to go to Lieutenant General Huang’s house to get two?
Go ahead, who can resist the fragrant and soft roasted sweet potatoes on a snowy day?
Su Rou stood up and said, "Wait a minute, the two of you. I'll go get two sweet potatoes. We'll have one each."
The madam looked at Su Rou leaving the door with a worried look on her face. "It seems a little bad that she always stays with two older women like us."
The old woman said, "The girl may not have thought about our age at all."
Su Rou kicked the door open.
Sure enough, I saw the bag of sweet potatoes placed against the wall.
There were still soldiers in the room, and they were all sitting on the couch in a daze.
Su Rou walked in with a swagger, squatted on the ground, and picked out the three largest ones.
But it seems that the small ones will be very sweet.
"I guess...girl."
Su Rou decided to take the whole bag back.
She grabbed a corner of the bag and waved at them, "You guys go about your business. I'm craving some of Deputy General Huang's sweet potatoes. Come and get some."
Then she dragged away the whole bag of sweet potatoes in full view of everyone.
Those sweet potatoes weren't anything rare; Master Huang had specially prepared them for them...
When Su Rou came back, she was shivering from the cold. "It's really cold outside."
The madam came over and brushed the snow off her body. "You only took three, why did you bring back so many?"
Su Rou said innocently, "I don't like Deputy General Huang, so I'll bully him. The three of us don't have much to eat, so let's share the rest with A Tian and the others."
