【captivity】

In the courtyard of the Snake King Palace, there is a lotus pond with boundless clear water.

From the moment Tong Wantian was trapped in the Snake Palace, she often sat alone by the lotus pond, looking at the densely packed lotus leaves like an open umbrella.

Strange to say, it is midsummer and July, which should be the season when the pond is full of lotus flowers.

But Tong Wantian has been trapped in the Snake Palace for more than half a year, but he has never seen a lotus flower in full bloom, not even a bud.

The only thing that fills this pool of clear water is the lush greenery and vivid lotus leaves that look like emerald butterflies and green umbrellas.

This kind of anomaly did not attract the attention of all the monsters in the Snake King Palace, where singing, dancing and music were all in full swing.

Tong Wantian sat alone on the carved black stone pier by the lotus pond, resting his elbows on the round table with the same color and carvings, propped his head sideways, and looked lazily at the pool of blue and green.

She is wearing a blue long dress, like a masterpiece from an ancient court master. It is simple and gorgeous, and against her fair skin, it is soft and tender. The whole person looks Like the cleanest buds under the morning dew.

In fact, Tong Wantian's clothes were all selected and customized by the Snake King herself. With her own intentions to explore the art of dressing?

Especially after being imprisoned and in a very bad mood, how could she think about what clothes to look good on?

"Alas!~~~" Tong Wantian sat for a long time, so he loosened his arms and sighed deeply, lying on the round table with his whole head on his arms.

She was very irritable and at a loss, and it was more of a feeling that was equivalent to despair that gradually grew in her heart.

How happy and unrestrained Tong Wantian was originally!

But what is the difference between being trapped in a luxurious snake palace and being a bird in a cage?

... If it was at the beginning... Alas!

Every time Tong Wantian thought of the day when she personally pierced that steel nail into Yinwu's chest, thinking of Yinwu's desolate and hopeless eyes, waves of bitter and distressing undercurrents would appear in her heart.

She was wrong, she really knew it was wrong.

What a fool she had done!

She actually killed him, the person who touched her heart with her own hands.

When his body gradually lost its support against her, Tong Wantian felt that he was also dead.

If she was given another chance to choose, she would rather... She would rather have him restrain her sharpness and imprison her.

But it was too late, Tong Wantian sighed heavily, as if to remind her that her soul was still in her body, she was still alive.

Thinking back then, seeing the dead Yin Wu and suddenly waking up again, Tong Wantian was so surprised that he almost stopped breathing, and that surprise was filled with excitement that almost jumped out of his mouth.

The same appearance, the same perseverance towards her...

However, Tong Wantian knew that the former Yinwu who was cruel to her while willingly coming to her to die no longer existed.

Now, the person she faced... was just a fake in Yinwu's body.

well!Don't mention it!

Tong Wantian felt so sad that she would die. Every time she thought about it, the undercurrent of sourness in her heart would always pierce her eyes, and her eyes were filled with transparent water unconsciously. She hated crying.

If it was the cruel Snake King who hides a knife in his smile, she would rather be that cold-faced Yin Wu! ~~~~

Tong Wantian, who was lying on the round table with her head buried, tightly clutched the clothes around her heart. It hurt inside, really hurt...

But what can be done?

After more than half a year, the edge of Tong Wantian's body was almost wiped out.

She racked her brains for a while to think of a way to escape, and the busyness at that time turned out to be so happy when she thought about it now.

Because only when she is busy, her heart will not be soaked in bitter juice and aching.

Tong Wantian thought of many ways to escape, but without exception, they all ended in failure.

The first time he escaped, he was discovered by the maid and failed.

The second time, he escaped the maid, but not the shadow guard of the Snake King. ... As a result, the maid was thrown out of the Snake Palace and never appeared again.

For the third time, she didn't choose to hide from people's eyes at night, but in the name of visiting the palace during the day, she sent the maid to leave halfway, and wanted to climb out of the outermost courtyard wall of the Snake King's Palace.

As a result, as soon as he reached the top of the wall, he was startled by a small snake head that suddenly appeared, and fell off the high wall on the spot.

The shadow guard who covered her head and face didn't know where she was hiding. When she fell to the wall, she quickly appeared, caught her easily, and landed firmly.

At that time, Tong Wantian was not annoyed by being caught, but looked at the black veil covered by the shadow guard, a bit like tearing off the black veil to look at the face under the black veil, because there was some kind of coldness in that cold embrace. The familiar feeling makes Tong Wantian nostalgic.

Maybe it was to dispel Tong Wantian's idea of ​​running away!Or maybe Tong Wantian's comfort in the embrace of the shadow guard made the Snake King uncomfortable.

After the Snake King arrived, he looked at Tong Wantian with a cloud over his face.

Tong Wantian thought that the Snake King would get angry, but he didn't expect that the Snake King just looked at her for a moment, then showed a determined smile, picked her up and jumped up the wall, and walked around the outer wall of the Snake King's Palace, letting her She had a clear view of the scenery outside the palace.

This method really works. Thinking of those snakes that stick to the walls like creepers and block the palace gates, those eyes that are densely packed like night lamps, like the god of death looking for prey, people can't help but think. Hide from being seen.

Not only that, but Tong Wantian also saw the maid who was sent away by her under the pretext of being bitten by snakes, screaming and being gradually eaten away.

It was the Snake King who deliberately let her see it. She knew it clearly, but she still couldn't help being frightened.

Tong Wantian was really frightened at that time, almost jumped up and ran away.

She told herself that those were all demons, it was nothing to be dealt with by the Snake King.

But seeing a life being dismembered and eaten away in front of her eyes, and being implicated to death because of her delusions, Tong Wantian felt very guilty.

In addition, Tong Wantian also saw that on the periphery of the palace of snakes, there are endless mountains and dense forests one after another, and the howling of tigers and wolves coming from the dense forest...

Want to run away?Tong Wantian was annoyed and chilled, everything she saw hurt her confidence in fleeing.

Tong Wantian understands that even if her special physique plays a role, if she avoids those poisonous snakes and ignores the life and death of the little demon who was disposed of by the snake king, she is likely to be torn apart by the beasts in the forest to feed her hunger.

Just like, the waitress who was eaten by snakes...

No matter how courageous Tong Wantian is, she is only a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old. In the face of so many cruel realities, is she not afraid?

Immortality comes second, but the flesh on his body is bitten off one by one, and he cannot die immediately, just like Ling Chi torture, until the bones are exposed and the internal organs are eaten...

That situation is really scary and painful! ~~~

It was a scary thing to think about at first, and seeing the snake swarm eating away at the waitress lens, just referring to it and imagining it, Tong Wantian was terrified.

Due to these reasons, Tong Wantian was silent for a long time.

But fortunately, Tong Wantian didn't get depressed just because of this, but after more than three months of psychological adjustment, he persuaded himself to carry out the fourth escape plan.

It is estimated that he has escaped many times and has experience!

This time the shadow guard didn't notice, Tong Wantian boldly walked out of the palace gate, seeing the group of snakes retreating on both sides, Tong Wantian was ecstatic.

She could no longer care about the tigers and beasts in the dense forest, she just wanted to get out of here, out of this luxurious cage.

Unfortunately, when she walked out of the palace gate, within five steps, her ankle suddenly tightened, as if something was hooking her foot.

Tong Wantian fell to the ground, her first reaction was that her ankle was entangled by a snake.

When she got up to look, she found that the green gold anklet worn by the Snake King himself on her ankle was emitting a blue gleam, and at some point, there was a small bell on it.

The bell shook gently, making a crisp sound.

Tong Wantian even saw a thin golden thread on the side of the bell, and the golden thread stretched tautly towards the gate of the Snake King's Palace.

Seeing the extra thing on the ankle, Tong Wantian panicked for a while, feeling like she was tied up as a plaything or a pet.

She tried to struggle, tried to grab the bell to break the gold wire, but the tight gold wire wrapped around the green gold anklet seemed to be inserted into the flesh of her ankle, and she burst into tears from the pain.

You have already stepped out of the gate of the Snake King's Palace, but you still can't escape?

Tong Wantian is not reconciled!

She looked at the large dense forest outside the gate of the Snake King's Palace, and her heart almost dripped with bitterness.

For the first time, she deeply realized that as a mortal, she could not escape the palace of the Snake King, and the palm of the Snake King.

Tong Wantian's guess was right, the Snake King gave her maximum freedom in the palace, but she was absolutely not allowed to leave the gate of the Snake King's palace.

Although the sacrificial oath 3000 years ago was made with the real Yinwu, the Snake King himself was bred by Yinwu's heart demon at this time. It can be said that everything about him has been inherited from Yinwu, including his love for Tong Tong. Wan Tian's nostalgia and longing.

After Tong Wantian failed to escape, the Snake King kindly introduced the function of the green gold anklet to Tong Wantian.

It turned out that this pair of anklets had been forbidden by the Snake King. It was fine for Tong Wantian to stay obediently in the Snake King's Palace. As long as she stepped out of the Snake King's Palace within five steps, the anklet's forbidden spell would appear.

The green gold anklet can not only correct Tong Wantian's wrong behavior in time to escape, but also gradually tighten as Tong Wantian flees again and again, until it strangles her flesh.

Although Tong Wantian was shocked when she heard this, she still felt lucky in her heart.

But the Snake King broke her last bit of luck. The Snake King told her that once the green gold anklet was cut into her flesh and tasted the blood, it would become a part of her body and imprison her soul.

In that case, even if she died, her soul would not be able to step out of the Snake Palace.

……

Tong Wantian was really unwilling.

She had lived for 19 years, even if Su Liuyan always let Song Minghai follow her, always kept her bodyguards in order to protect her, and even occasionally restrained her from leaving the Tong's compound because she was too rebellious.

But with the protection of those family members, Tong Wantian never felt like being restrained.

How free and easy she was, what a free and handsome person!

But now, being imprisoned in the huge Snake King's Palace, she looks like the Snake King's favorite woman on the surface, but in fact, only Tong Wantian knows how powerless this feeling of losing her freedom is.

Besides, every time she sees the Snake King's face, she will think of the bleak and desolate look in Yinwu's eyes when she was dying, even with some despair.

... If killing me can make you remember me, then do it! ...

Tong Wantian's heart was suffering and gradually became numb.

She didn't refuse the Snake King's approach and love, because she didn't want to refuse Yinwu, even if Yinwu was deprived of his soul and only his body was left, she also wanted to feel his presence, and she didn't want to see any sadness on that face.

But the Snake King is really cruel!

It is estimated that Tong Wantian always looked at his face in a daze, and was so cautious that he actually gave Tong Wantian a look at the current situation of Tong's family.

You can't leave the Snake Palace, it's good to see your family.

Tong Wantian was almost moved, but unfortunately when she saw her father Tong Weiguo, mother Su Liuyan, younger brother Tong Xiaotian and younger sister Tong Wanling through the water moon mirror.

But it turns out...

The Tong family is doing very well, the only bad thing is that Tong Wantian can't see the slightest nostalgia for her from the eyes of the family. To put it bluntly, the Tong family and even the friends Tong Wantian has been in contact with have been erased without exception. about her memory.

After living for 19 years, not to mention being inexplicably imprisoned, even the relatives' nostalgia for her were also erased, as if Tong Wantian never existed at all. This strange feeling made Tong Wantian feel chills .

She looked at the Snake King in disbelief, but the Snake King just smiled and nodded lightly, as if it wasn't a big deal in itself, Tong Wantian was sad and angry, but Tong Wantian seemed a bit petty.

Forgotten by her family, imprisoned by a different kind, Song Minghai, who was like a brother, died because of her, and Yinwu changed under her hands...

All these things are like the tide, pouring Tong Wantian's heart into a chill.

What else could she do?The bondage on her feet can't be untied, she is just a mortal, how can she fight against the ghosts of the Snake Palace?

Besides, even if she went out, so what?

Mom and Dad no longer know that she is a daughter.

Once upon a time in the middle of the night, Tong Wantian woke up in a dream, always thinking anxiously: It's not that her parents have forgotten her, but that she never existed at all. The bits and pieces of her 19 years are just placed in a vacant seat. It's just a bubble.

No, how is it possible?Tong Wantian would never believe that kind of thing.

Sometimes, Tong Wantian would also think that because she is so smart, if she has a chance to return to her family, her parents will definitely remember her.

But, she can't! ~~ She couldn't lead the danger from the Snake King to the Tong's compound.

It was all her family, her loved ones, and she would never do that kind of thing.

Tong Wantian has always been full of confidence, especially in fights, she doesn't pay attention to a few strong and strong men, especially in fights, but if it is a monster...

Although she is confident, she is never blindly arrogant.

In the days of silence, Tong Wantian thought very clearly that she would never be able to defeat the Snake King.

She couldn't even beat Lie Ying, the shadow guards of the Snake King's Palace, and the women surrounding the Snake King, one or two.

"Miss, it's time for dinner, please come back!" Lili was dressed in a light pink dress, dressed like a maid in an ancient court, neat and tidy.

Whenever Tong Wantian heard Lili's voice, she couldn't help but glance at her.

She really hoped that one day, Lili would stretch her waist towards her, yawn, and lazily say, "Miss, it's time to eat."

That seemingly unreasonable pattern is the person Tong Wantian is most familiar with. Lili, who never beat around the bush, is greedy for sleep and food, lazy but very direct, that is the real Lili!

But now... Tong Wantian doesn't even have the mood to sigh anymore.

And after running away several times, when the Snake King arranged Lili by her side, she knew that she couldn't escape.

The ghosts in the entire Snake King Palace are dead or alive, Tong Wantian can tell himself with peace of mind that the ones who died are just aliens, one more death would be better, but in Lili's case...

Tong Wantian glanced at the lotus pond full of lotus leaves, her heart was extremely cold, she knew that she no longer had the courage to escape.

At least until Lili escaped safely, she couldn't ignore Lili's life.

Lili was very quiet, except for the words she had to use for her service, she hardly spoke a single extra word, just like a... real puppet.

Regarding this, Tong Wantian was very helpless and powerless. Ever since she knew that there were demons in this world, she understood the process of a person becoming a puppet, and it didn't even take a second.

Tong Wantian walked slowly back and forth along the winding path paved with colorful cobblestones in the courtyard of the Snake King Palace.

Stretching her left hand into the sleeve of her right hand, she stroked a small green snake wrapped around her right wrist.

Tong Wantian misses that silver phoenix brocade very much. Although that snake poisoned Li Song to death, but now she is trapped in the Snake Palace. To her, even that murderous poisonous snake is kind to her.

She also often thinks of Yinwu's dark red eyes, icy expression, firm and powerful arms, and long and icy snake tail...

But those were all destroyed by her, with her own hands.

All she has now is this little snake, which is less than half an arm long.

Perhaps it was Tong Wantian who pinned his thoughts on Yinwu on the little bi-color snake!

Every time she feels the existence of the little snake, she can always ignite a little hope in her almost hopeless life.

Tong Wantian's life in this life was so smooth, being let by Su Liuyan, Tong Weiguo, Song Minghai, and even Tong Xiaotian let her protect her.

So many relatives are gone all at once.

Although this blow greatly stimulated Tong Wantian, she never gave up the chance to find hope.

For example, when the steel nail pierced Yinwu's chest, Yinwu's temperament changed drastically, and he became a different kind of person who would only imprison her.

Then if there is another steel nail, will that cold silver afternoon change back?

The heart that was still beating in the palm of the hand that was picked off by Yinwu, maybe as long as it was put back into Song Minghai's body, Song Minghai would be able to come back to life!

Even Li Song can come back from the dead?

Tong Wantian often thinks, since everything here is unnatural, then the abnormal things are considered normal!

But think about it, just think about it.

What can she do?

Thinking of ways to make King Snake relax his vigilance towards her, thinking of ways to persuade King Snake to untie the anklets on her ankles, thinking of ways to let King Snake take her out for a walk...

It seems that as long as one of her wishes can be fulfilled, she will be a little closer to her goal.

It would be great if he could persuade the Snake King to take her out of the palace!

It would be best to meet a Maoshan Taoist or something, and by the way, kill the demon and give her freedom.
