Chapter 117 Zhong Xiaokui Surrenders
"Cough-cough-"
Zhong Xiaokui had her black hair disheveled and was huddled in the corner of the cell, hugging her legs, looking rather embarrassed.
There was still some blood at the corner of her mouth. Although her injuries had received preliminary treatment, they were still painful.
As long as she breathed, it felt like a raging fire was burning inside her body. The pain seemed to tear her apart. She felt as if her heart was being eaten by thousands of ants, and she wanted to bang her head against the wall to relieve the pain.
If she hadn't been so strong-willed, she would have probably broken down and cried.
The bright moonlight shines through the iron window onto the open space, leaving a silvery white space.
Staring at those tiny bits of light, Zhong Xiaokui felt both physically and mentally pain.
Blank, confused, helpless, and entangled.
She didn't know where her fate would go.
In order to save her life, she had no choice but to give up her dignity and kneel down to beg for mercy.
She even said that she was willing to be Su Qingjue's slave.
But now that I think about it carefully, if I continue to be a slave, it would be better to die.
From the Ghost King Zhu Youwen to the Daliang Emperor Zhu Youzhen, she always served them as a servant by their side.
The Ghost King was okay, at least he could give her basic respect, but if she disobeyed, the only outcome would be death.
As for Zhu Youzhen, if you anger him, you will not only be insulted by him, but also be whipped in public with a whip. (The original content of the second season.)
She is a woman!
Even if she always disguised herself as a man and appeared in public as a man.
But she also wants to live with dignity.
She's really had enough of this kind of life.
I really don't want to continue like this.
It is better to die than to live without dignity.
Therefore, in the face of Shi Yao's kindness these days, she always treated it with a cold eye.
Zhong Xiaokui had already made up his mind. When the general of Qi State came, he would tell the other party that he had changed his mind and that he could be killed or cut into pieces as he pleased.
"Clap!"
A sound of footsteps was heard and Zhong Xiaokui trembled all over.
"coming."
"What should I say later?"
"With a noble character, I am ready to die bravely... But have I really thought it through?"
"You only have one life. When you die, you really have nothing!"
"Dignity, can dignity be more important than staying alive?"
"..."
Zhong Xiaokui felt extremely conflicted, as if there were two villains arguing with each other.
One side wants her to die with dignity, while the other side tells her that living is the most important thing.
The two sides are evenly matched and neither can convince the other.
Zhong Xiaokui's instinctive reaction was to stay alive, but every time she thought of the humiliation she had suffered, she really felt that life would rather die than live.
pain!
Zhong Xiaokui scratched his hair like crazy, as if he wanted to pull out every strand of hair.
There seemed to be a string of crystal drops falling from her white jaw...
Su Qingjue stood outside the cell and looked at Zhong Xiaokui indifferently.
He opened his thin lips and said, "Are you willing to submit to me?"
Although Zhong Xiaokui had already expressed his position on the battlefield at that time, it is still necessary to ask it again today.
Zhong Xiaokui: “…”
"What's your problem? Tell me."
Su Qingjue is quite patient.
Even though they were enemies before, he almost took Zhong Xiaokui's life.
But now that I think about it carefully, Zhong Xiaokui is indeed a rare talent.
Not to mention how loyal she was when she served the Ghost King Zhu Youzhen.
Even when he was pretending to stay with Zhu Youzhen, Zhong Xiaokui was extremely efficient and decisive in his work.
If we can recruit him and train him patiently, he will surely become a mainstay in the future.
Many things can be entrusted to her without any worries.
Su Qingjue can also rest assured and continue to study the innate way while governing the country well.
Of course, it doesn't have to be her.
Su Qingjue only gave her one chance.
If she knew what was best for her, it would be easy to deal with.
Otherwise, why bother keeping her around to make things worse?
Now he has many brave generals under his command, not to mention the Dark Insects, there are also the Bad Guys who are temporarily working for him.
One more or one less doesn’t make much either!
Zhong Xiaokui slowly raised his head, lowered his eyes and did not dare to look at Su Qingjue.
She asked softly: "May I ask the General, the Ghost King..."
"died."
Su Qingjue looked indifferent, as if he was talking about something extremely ordinary.
Hearing this, Zhong Xiaokui couldn't help but take a deep breath.
She stood up, bowed and knelt towards Su Qingjue, saying: "I beg the general to allow Xiaokui to consider it for another two days. I will definitely give you a reply in two days."
Su Qingjue frowned slightly, but seeing that her attitude was sincere, he did not refuse.
He didn't say anything, but just turned and left.
only,
Before leaving this dungeon, Su Qingjue stopped and said in a deep voice:
"Sister Shiyao, please take her to take a bath and change her clothes. She is obviously a girl, why is she dressing up as a man?"
Shi Yao covered her mouth and smiled softly, "Okay, please rest assured, General."
Hearing Su Qingjue's words, Zhong Xiaokui suddenly raised his head.
Her eyes were complicated, showing surprise but also a little joy.
Although it was just a very ordinary little thing, Su Qingjue might not even care too much about it.
But to Zhong Xiaokui, who had fallen to the bottom of the valley, it was like a life-saving rein, extremely precious and of great significance.
Zhong Xiaokui noticed that Shi Yao was looking at her with a smile, and her pretty face couldn't help but turn red. She couldn't help but lower her head again, feeling very upset.
"It seems that being alive... does not mean that there is no dignity. This great general is different from the Ghost King and the others..."
Zhong Xiaokui suddenly didn't want to die anymore.
She wanted to live her life again as a daughter.
Thinking of this, while Su Qingjue had not completely left, Zhong Xiaokui hurriedly shouted: "General, wait a moment!"
Hearing this, everyone present turned their eyes to her.
Su Qingjue, who had already stepped out of the cell, also stepped back.
He looked at Zhong Xiaokui and asked softly, "What do you want to say?"
Zhong Xiaokui walked up to Su Qingjue respectfully, knelt down and said, "Xiaokui is willing to serve the general!"
"very good."
"..."
Since Zhong Xiaokui has surrendered, there is no need to keep her locked up.
Su Qingjue asked Shi Yao to take her to take a bath and change clothes.
He took the Mirror Heart Demon and walked towards the place where Li Cunxiao was imprisoned.
After all, Li Cunxiao is a master of the Great Heaven Realm with immense strength, known as the most powerful man in the world, so he cannot be imprisoned in an ordinary cell.
