Mei'er said softly. "Sir, are you sleeping?"
"..."
Shang Qu Jing did not make a sound, his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping.
A chill flashed across Mei'er's eyes, and as soon as she pressed her finger against Shang Qu Jing's body, Shang Qu Jing did not respond anymore.
While sneering, Mei'er got up, took the robe and put it on, then sat down in front of her dressing table.
He skillfully picked up the black box, opened it, took out the jade jar inside, then lifted the lid, took out a needle, and thrust it into the belly of his index finger, and immediately a drop of blood fell into the jade jar.
When a drop of blood fell into the jade jar, the worms inside became insane and snapped at him. Mei'er drips three drops of blood into it and closes the lid. After the lid was closed, his eyes were fixed on the black tube in the corner of the box.
This jar is very small, only the size of a baby's fist. Just like this in the corner, it is very easy to ignore. However, when Mei'er saw the black can, a strange red light flashed across her eyes.
His middle finger, which had not been erased by blood, landed on the can, and soon, a thin tentacle protruded from the can, climbed up his middle finger, where the needle was pierced.
Then ... skewer!
As these tentacles pierced Mei'er's finger, Mei'er's face immediately showed a delighted expression, as if she was eating a good meal.
And as he was enjoying it, the tentacles stretched out infinitely like silk threads, stretched out into his blood, climbed up the rocks a little, and pierced into his heart.
Mei'er's entire body was as if she was doing something with a man, and her face instantly turned pale. Limp on the dresser.
She cried in a low voice, her voice was very charming.
After a long time, Mei'er opened her eyes, her forehead already soaked with sweat. Those already charming beautiful eyes were filled with water at this moment.
He slowly licked his lips with the tip of his tongue, and his eyes were full of satisfaction. Unexpectedly, the taste of this highlight was even more palatable than Shang Qu Jing.
Mei'er sat down and looked at the bearing of her middle finger, the skin on it intact without blood stains, as if nothing had happened.
Peeping her lips, Mei'er raised her finger and placed it on her lips, nudging slightly, like a baby nudging her finger.
Delicious.
Very delicious.
...* * *...
Gao Guang opened his eyes.
In the darkness, he could not see anything, his eyes were completely dark.
But his eyes did not move, and he was not obsessed with trying to see through anything.
He frowned, and as the shadow in his mind floated, his frown became even tighter.
The next day, Gao Guang went to the government office to work as usual and take care of things.
Within half an hour, the guards entered.
"My lord, my lord, please meet me."
Gao Guang stopped and looked at the guards.
"My lord?"
"Yes, my lord."
Gao Guang did not ask again. He lowered his head and frowned slightly. He did not have much contact with the district government judges, as he did with Shang Qu Jing.
Why did the district government judge come to him all of a sudden? Gao Guang thought about it, put down the documents, and said, "Let the judge come in."
"Yes." Yeah."
The judge will come in. As soon as he saw Gao Guang, the judge from the county government immediately bowed and shouted, "Master Gao!"
The waist of this bow almost bent his legs, and his voice was filled with endless pain. It was as if he had been severely persecuted.
Gao Guang came out and helped the district government judge. “What does the judge do?”
Supported by Gao Guang, the judge hurriedly grabbed his hand and said excitedly. “Sir! My son offended you yesterday, please forgive me!”
My kid?
Gao Guang's expression froze, his brows furrowed.
The son of the county magistrate?
Was ...
Not letting Gao Guang think too much, a face flashed through his mind very quickly.
The son of the county magistrate was probably the short and fat man who tried to bully Mei'er yesterday.
Thinking of Mei'er, Gao Guang's heart stiffened, and the dream image of last night floated in his mind. He immediately clenched his hands and re-screened those embarrassing images.
Looking at Gao Guang's instantly cold face, the district government judge shuddered, and said even louder. "Master Gao, that kid is stupid, what he said was wrong, what he did wrong, the subordinate officials have taught him hard, and I hope you will teach me a lesson. Give my son a chance to change himself!"
The district government judge held onto Gao Guang's hand, tears streaming down his excited eyes. Like a broken-hearted old father for the sake of his son.
Gao Guang withdrew his hand, his face still cold. Most of this coldness was because he was thinking about last night's dreams, which he couldn't suppress, and a small part was only yesterday.
But in the eyes of the judge, Gao Guang did this because of yesterday's incident.
The judge bowed again, and said in a painful voice. "Mr Gao, everything is the fault of the subordinate officials. Subordinate officials did not manage my son well, which made him make a big mistake. I am willing to be punished for my son!"
The district magistrate knelt.
It makes sense that local government judges should not kneel no matter what.
But who is this prophet?
Shaoqing from Taichang Temple who was personally sent by the emperor was here to deal with the plague in Minzhou.
At first, he had thought Gao Guang was just a young priest from Taichang Temple who had come for granted, so, except for some superficial skills, it was just that, he was not at all friends with Gao Guang on weekdays.
After all, in the imperial palace, Gao Guang's position was not as high as that of his brother-in-law.
He could not see the high light.
But it was only after Gao Guang issued the imperial edict personally granted by the emperor on that day that he knew what kind of great person he was.
Fortunately, he did not fight Gao Guang, nor did he provoke Gao Guang, so everything was fine.
He's still the judge.
But!
Who would have thought that his unworthy son would actually bully women on the street? And he was still here with Gao Guang, he didn't know how to live or die!
It was hard for him to protect her.
But no matter how difficult it was, this was also his only son, and he could not let this only son die!
Gao Guang heard the voice, turned his head, and saw the district government judge kneeling on the ground, his face changed, and hurriedly helped the district government judge. "Sir, what are you doing? Come fast!"
He did not deserve such a big reward.
The local government judge did not wake up. Grabbing Gao Guang's hand, he said, "My master, what my son did was his father's fault, please punish me!"
You can't let Gao Guang refer to what happened yesterday. If this is the case, his brother-in-law will be finished!
Over the years, relying on her brother-in-law's relationship, she often erased that disappointment.
If the donkeys are not cleaned today, everyone will die!
Gao Guang looked at the judge's expression, and knew what the judge meant.
He no longer helped the magistrate of yamen county, and said with a straight face. "Master of yamen county, I've reported everything your son did and said yesterday to the wise man."
If the short and fat man was an ordinary person, then he would not report.
Just finish it yourself.
But that fat man was no ordinary man.
When he said that his uncle was the Minister of Rites, Gao Guang could not solve it by himself.
Gao Guang had to tell the Holy One and let the Holy One make a decision.
Due to such reckless behavior, I fear it will not be the day.
When the judge from the county government heard Gao Guang's words, his face turned pale, and he fell limp on the floor.
Gao Guang continued.
