Chapter 210: Entering the Black Market
Chapter 210: Entering the Black Market
Kyoto market.
Shen Shuangxing got off the carriage with Yue'er's help.
She looked at the bustling scene in front of her and felt a sense of accomplishment.
This is the world she created with her pen, a world she had imagined countless times in her mind.
The narrow alleys and wide streets are filled with stalls.
The aroma of steaming food is mouth-watering.
The handicrafts are exquisite and eye-catching, and the stall owners’ shouts are heard one after another.
Men, women, young and old walked around, some stopped to choose, some asked for prices and talked, with laughter and joy all around.
There was a strange sense of familiarity everywhere here, which made her excited that the fiction in her mind would become reality.
Yue'er was excitedly introducing to her which craftsman had the best carving skills, which pie was the most delicious, and which fabric was the most gorgeous.
She listened with a smile, her eyes wandering around until she saw a performance of people breaking stones with their chests not far away.
She couldn't help but ask, "Is there a lot of traditional art here?"
Shen Shuangyue raised her eyebrows, immediately knowing what her sister was thinking, and praised her generously, "Sister is really a role model for us. She never forgets to work even when she comes here!"
She tilted her head and asked Mo Linqing, "Xiaoqing, are there any performances here, such as Nuo opera, military opera, or acrobatics?"
These performances are hard to find in modern times. If her sister hadn't mentioned it, she would never have thought that she could still watch such performances.
Mo Linqing said "hmm", "I'll send a message to my second brother and ask him to make the arrangements."
"If it's difficult, there's no need to do it." Shen Shuangxing added. After all, Nuo opera is an ancient ritual drama for sacrificing gods, mostly performed on occasions such as sacrifices, and has a strong mysterious color and religious atmosphere.
Simply performing may make the other person feel disrespected.
Mo Linqing nodded and said, "Don't worry, Sister Shen, my second brother knows what to do."
Shen Shuangxing thanked her and then let Yue'er hold her hand and wander around.
Mo Linqing and Murong kept looking at Shuangyue's face, and they felt complicated.
When had they ever seen such a childish Frost Moon?
In my memory, Shuangyue would block swords for others without changing her expression, would rush into the bloody storm without fear, and would touch Su Hanwan's head lovingly like an older sister.
It seemed that only in front of Sister Shen would she let down her guard and show a rare fragility and dependence.
The conversation between Shuangyue and her sister kept coming to my ears.
"Sister, how about we ask the woodcarver to carve two figurines of us?"
"it is good."
"Sister, try this pie, it's absolutely amazing!"
"Yeah, it's better than anything I've eaten before."
"Sister, look at that kite. It's so big. How about we go to People's Square to fly a kite when I get back?"
"Okay, I'll pick two online and wait for you to get home."
Mo Linqing turned his head slightly, not wanting to look at this heartwarming scene.
Bitterness spread across the corners of his lips. It turned out that fulfilling someone's wish was such a difficult thing. It turned out that he also had such a despicable side that he would feel irritated by other people's happiness.
Murong Ying followed the two of them without saying a word.
His mind was filled with the word "sister" that Shuangyue called softly, and the cheerful tone of her voice made him feel even more desolate.
Shen Shuangyue was completely immersed in happiness, and her heart was filled with the feeling of warm sunshine.
The scene of this day became her happiest day in a hundred years.
She felt full of strength. If she wasn't worried that her sister couldn't bear it, she really wanted to walk around from morning to night and keep calling her sister.
But happy times are always too short, and two days passed in a flash.
After Shen Shuangyue sent her sister away, she stared at the vase and wood carvings on the windowsill for a long time, then suddenly slammed the table.
She called Xiao Jinyin into the room, took his hand and walked to the bed, and told him: "Sister said she would come to pick me up next time, which is three months later, after I am sure Lu Xin has changed his fate."
"In the next three months, I plan to accompany you to deal with the forces of the black market and have a heart-to-heart talk with you. Can you help me arrange it?"
"No problem." The abstinent fifth prince smiled gently, as if he was not surprised by Shuangyue's decision and could accept it calmly.
But the smile did not reach his eyes, and the hand that was shaking with Shuangyue suddenly turned cold.
Shen Shuangyue used both hands to warm Xiao Jinyu's hands and asked in a joking tone: "Why are your hands still cold? It's not like you will never see me again."
The abstinent Fifth Prince lowered his eyes and looked at the two people's clasped hands. He twitched the corners of his lips and said, "Well, I will wait for you to take me away until the end of my life."
Shen Shuangyue's heart trembled. Afraid that Xiao Jinyu might notice something, she hooked her arms around his neck and kissed his lips.
After a long while, she said, "I still want to kiss you."
"it is good."
"I want to feel my abs."
"what ever."
"I think……"
"That will have to wait until we get married."
—?—
Two months later.
Gu Linghao successfully entered the black market and has thoroughly figured out how to enter the black market.
The emperor was very pleased when he heard Gu Linghao's report.
Thinking about the fearless behavior of Shen Shuangyue and the seven others these days, he said, "Go ask County Lord Shen if she is willing to go deep into the Dragon Pond. If she is willing, let her lead my secret guards to destroy the black market lair, and let the Fifth Prince lead the troops to attack Jinglian Mountain from the outside."
Gu Linghao agreed and quietly came to the county lady's mansion.
There was laughter and joy in the county lady's mansion.
Shen Shuangyue was sitting on a swing. Two people pushed the swing high into the air from behind her. Shen Shuangyue let go of the swing in mid-air, allowing herself to fall in a parabola and was caught by seven people.
Gu Linghao watched for a long time before appearing to end the game and telling Shuangyue the emperor's thoughts.
Shen Shuangyue naturally agreed and chose a dark and windy night to take her men into the black market.
The black market was darker than she had imagined.
She watched helplessly as a child was thrown into the Colosseum, fighting with wild beasts and bleeding profusely.
And there were countless cheers around.
She watched helplessly as the unconscious woman was taken to a room with five men.
She watched helplessly...
With tears in her eyes, she kept waving the sword in her hand.
No matter who he is!
Kill anyone you don’t like!
Protect the victims!
Her body was gradually covered with blood, some of others' and some of her own.
The male supporting actors were also blinded by the blood, and their chests seemed to be blocked by something, making it difficult for them to breathe.
Mo Linfeng suddenly discovered that his fate had been blessed by God. Although he suffered a lot in his childhood, at least he could survive if he wanted to.
Shen Shuangyue has been on a killing spree since she entered the black market. The huge size of the black market also gave her an opportunity. As long as she acted fast enough, she could kill most people.
But after all, the black market has been here for a long time, and the managers quickly reacted and arranged people to fight against Frost Moon's people.
After they realized that they could not kill Shuangyue and others, they quickly made a decision.
Countless victims were taken to a room where broken arms and body parts were scattered everywhere.
The leader said, "My dear gentleman, as long as you take your people away, I will pretend that nothing happened. Otherwise, today will be the day these people die."
Shen Shuangyue clenched her fists tightly, her face pale.
Countless fragments flashed through my mind, a broken sack filled with incomplete limbs.
After testing, it was found to be her sister's.
