The palace is quiet, and the empress of the cold palace is acting as a demon

Chapter 254 Sending Her into the River
Smart is mistaken by smart.

At this time, Qin Wan's hands and feet were bound, and he knelt quietly in the wooden house, listening to the people outside the door who were preparing for the sacrifice ceremony at midnight.The maid opened the door and came in, bringing a makeup box and a bronze mirror, to dress her up.

Logically speaking, she should feel scared.

But on the contrary, she felt extremely calm, as if being thrown into the river was not a big deal.

"Ning also..."

Qin Wan's lips were painted bright red by Wu Zhu's maid. She was thinking of Ning Yi and looking forward to him coming to save her.

I have caused him trouble again... I think he will be reprimanded again...

Thinking of this, Qin Wan became more calm.

Wu Zhu's maid helped Qin Wan tie up her hair, and said softly, "Mrs. Qin is really brave. When girls in the past were dressing up, they would cry so much that the makeup they had just painted was wiped out, and they had to paint it many times. , or if you want to escape, you must break their legs to make them keep going. Only you, madam, sit quietly, like a real bride."

Qin Wan didn't answer her words, just let her play around.

"His Majesty Ningdi has already searched for you in the whole city, but we people here will not let His Majesty find you." The maid said while helping her choose a suitable hair accessory, "Even if His Majesty Ningdi's army has you He has swords and soldiers, but he can't kill anyone at sight, you must know that in this city, there are all people who follow Lord Wu Zhu, we want to hide you, it is absolutely impossible for him to find you."

"What is this place?" Qin Wan asked.

The maid thought about it and said, "Anyway, you won't come here again, so it's okay to tell you, this is Lord Wu Zhu's mansion."

Qin Wan inhaled lightly, and asked calmly, "Then Lord Lu Ping is also a member of Wu Zhu?"

The maid put on a pair of pearl earrings for Qin Wan: "Master Lu Ping is Lord Wu Zhu's most trusted disciple. The reason why he can be his state shepherd in Chizhou safely is because of Lord Wu Zhu's support. .”

Qin Wan asked: "What did Lord Wu Zhu give you? You trust and worship her so much?"

The maid smiled: "Master Wu Zhu is the endorsement of the gods, she can guide us on the right path. A humble and ugly life like me can serve Lord Wu Zhu, get close to the gods, get purified, and get the gifts of the gods to live in the world. In this world, thanks to Master Wu Zhu."

Qin Wan said: "God can speak by himself, and does not need the endorsement of the world."

The maid disagreed: "What nonsense are you talking about, Mrs. Qin, the gods are so high, they only talk to people like Master Wu Zhu, and how can we ordinary mortals have the opportunity to talk to gods? Master Wu Zhu told me that as long as I Serve the gods devoutly, and the gods will keep me safe."

Qin Wan felt that the maid had been brainwashed enough by the sorceress Wu Zhu that she could no longer communicate with her.

After dressing up, the maid placed the bronze mirror in front of Qin Wan.

By the candlelight, Qin Wan smiled at the mirror, not to mention anything else, this maid is very good at makeup, and painted her beautifully.

The maid opened the door and walked out of the wooden house, and several burly men at the door came in.

They wanted to grab Qin Wan, but Qin Wan threw them away: "Don't touch me, I'll go by myself!"

Qin Wan stepped out of the wooden house and found that it was a very ordinary mansion, very similar to Qiupu Garden, the only difference was that there was a small green brick well in the middle of the yard.The sky was already dark, and the heavy rain still continued. The corridor was full of candles, and the lights were faint, illuminating the faces of the people participating in the ceremony, which was particularly terrifying.

The sorceress Wu Zhu placed the tribute by the well, danced in the heavy rain with a cane, and spoke a strange language with her mouth.

Except for Qin Wan who thought her appearance was quite funny, the people around were all serious and pious, with both hands making Buddha's water-holding palm prints, and chanting some scriptures in unison with their eyes closed, as if they were using a strange way to help the witch. Help.

After the witch finished her ritual, she said loudly: "Come here, send the bride!"

Qin Wan thought that she would be tied up in a leaky boat and sent to the long river to drown.

But this witch has a rigorous mind. The long river is full of Ning Yi's Bei Rong army. If she throws Qin Wan into the river, she will definitely be discovered.

So she chose to let Qin Wan throw himself into the well.

Qin Wan now understands why the maid is so sure that no one can save her. In such an ordinary courtyard, with such a secret ceremony attended by dozens of people, and with the cover of the whole city, she is now considered an intruder. Wings are also difficult to fly.

"This is obviously a well," Qin Wan said loudly, looking at the witch, "there must be ghosts or dragon gods in the well. I haven't heard that Lord River God lives in the well."

The witch smiled and said, "Mrs. Qin, don't worry, this well leads directly to the long river, and I will definitely send you to Lord River God safely."

Qin Wan looked solemn, thinking of the blood jade bracelet on her wrist, if it wasn't for the hemp rope wrapped around her wrist, otherwise she would smash the blood jade bracelet and let Qin He come to rescue her.But now I am afraid that there is no chance at all.

Qin Wan was pushed to the edge of the moss-covered well, drenched in heavy rain, looked at the dark well water, and felt terrible all of a sudden.

Although she had died more than once, she was still a little apprehensive about drowning.

Qin Wan thought to herself, hoping to be reborn in a closer place after death this time, and then come back and drown this witch in the water, so that she can also taste the feeling of being drowned.

"The auspicious time has come! Do it!" the witch ordered.

Four women walked out from the onlookers. They wore plain white dresses, followed the witch's instructions like puppets, grabbed Qin Wan's arms and legs, and lifted her up.

Qin Wan said coldly to the witch: "Just wait, I will make you suffer a punishment ten thousand times worse than what I am suffering now."

With sarcasm in her eyes, the witch walked to Qin Wan's side and said in a low voice, "You are a dying person, where do you get your confidence?"

In the same low voice, Qin Wan said to her quietly: "Do you really think I'm just a mortal? I'm a wandering soul of the heavenly clan that the ghost world doesn't accept...wait for my revenge, Lord Wu Zhu. "

The witch's expression froze suddenly, and she turned to look at Qin Wan. Seeing the stern smile in her eyes, she seemed to realize that Qin Wan had stopped talking nonsense.

But at the moment when Wu Zhu hesitated to stop the ceremony, the four women threw Qin Wan directly into the well, not giving Wu Zhu time to regret it.

With a splash, Qin Wan fell into the well water.

The freezing water surrounded her, making her shiver from the cold.

The last breath I held was almost unbearable...

The pain of suffocation hit, and the lungs began to ache.

I really can't hold it anymore...

So sad……

Ning also...

Suddenly, a wave of water rolled over, and then she felt that she had fallen into a huge air bubble, and finally exhaled the breath she was holding back, and then breathed in new air easily.

"Huh? I was rescued..." Qin Wan was suspended in the air bubble, not daring to reach out to touch the wall of the bubble, for fear of breaking it by herself.

The air bubbles are pushed by the water all the way, and slowly come to a riverbed garden with lights on.

When the air bubbles fell on the stone steps in the garden, Qin Wan also fell to the ground.

She looked up to the top of her head, and the huge enchantment shielded the river from the outside, and this garden was full of trees and flowers, just like the garden on the ground.Rockery lotus ponds, green willows and peach blossoms can be seen everywhere, so beautiful.

At this time, several little fish spirits came to Qin Wan in a hurry, some helped her untie the ropes on her hands and feet, some helped her dry her hair, and some brought her new dresses and hair accessories.

Then, a short-haired man in a dark black coat came from the corridor of the water garden. His bangs were a little long, blocking his beautiful and deep eyes. His nose was high and his lips were thin. He looked serious and melancholy.

But his voice was like water, sweet and deep.

He said to Qin Wan: "Long time no see, Wan Wan..."
