Qing Ping returned to her room, lay on the bed, closed her eyes, and rested quietly. Her breathing was even and long, as if she had fallen asleep.
She gave people the feeling as if nothing had happened.
Everything was as usual.
A few hours passed, except for the dinner that was delivered by the guard at the door.
She kept this sleeping posture, motionless.
Night gradually fell … After two days of revelry, the tourists on the ship, no matter how energetic they were, were inevitably a little tired. Unlike usual, tonight's evening ball was announced to be over at about ten o 'clock. Everyone hugged their partners and went back to rest. Only a few particularly energetic young people still didn't want to sleep. Dozens of people, with girls and drinks, ran to the Sea-watching Tower on the top of the ship to watch the stars.
Stargazing, such a literary thing, was never a group activity.
But in the high sky, facing the wind to fight a group battle.
This kind of behavior was more in line with the interests and exuberance of young people.
When they were playing crazily and excitedly, a group of uninvited guests broke in, but they didn't join in, but waved the life harvesting sickle, taking away the lives that were in the carnival. Blood bloomed like flowers; life withered like fallen leaves.
The killing, no one knew when it began, silently, and constantly.
It turned out that Qing Ping, who had been sleeping with her eyes closed.
Her eyes suddenly opened sharply.
Her eyes were shining.
Lighter than smoke, more dexterous than a leopard cat, Qing Ping silently opened the door, struck the back of the guard's neck, and gently dragged the catfish-like guy into the room. A minute later, a shadow dressed in a guard's uniform walked out of the room. The shadow lowered his head slightly, gliding forward at high speed and silently.
When meeting each patrolling guard on the ship, the shadow would say in a deep male voice, "The glory of the ancestors."
And the guard who heard it would immediately stand at attention respectfully and answer, "Glory to the present."
The shadow quickly passed the VIP area, which was only for the rich to rest.
Along the corridor, it kept flying.
Only when he reached a luxurious suite decorated with golden laurel leaves did he stop in his tracks. When the shadow reached out to touch the door handle, there was a second of hesitation, as if he wanted to give up his plan. But a second later, the shadow took a deep breath, rejected the hesitation, and strengthened his belief. Before holding the doorknob and opening the door, the shadow cautiously looked around. It was late at night and seemed to be very safe. No one had appeared in this VIP area, and there was nothing suspicious hiding in the darkness.
The shadow clenched his teeth.
Grabbing the doorknob, he twisted it forcefully and slid inside. While silently hiding inside the room, he cleverly closed the door without making a sound.
"Pa pa!"
Someone was clapping in the dark.
Then, bright lights illuminated the entire hall of the luxurious suite. After the shadows adapted for a short while, they could clearly see that there were three people inside. One was a gorilla-like muscleman, his eyes full of mockery. The other was Water Spider, who had the upper hand over Yue Yang for the past two days. There was no mockery in her eyes, but rather a kind of matter-of-fact, as if she believed that Qing Ping would definitely do so. The last person was Old Anchor, dressed in his first mate's uniform. Now, he no longer looked like a dejected sailor laborer, but more like a majestic king.
The way Old Anchor looked at Qing Ping was different from the other two. His eyes were full of sorrow and regret.
The shadow saw him.
Her whole body swayed slightly, as if in fear, but also as if in relief.
The shadow slowly took off her helmet, revealing her true appearance. It was Qing Ping, who had pretended to be quiet and had suddenly attacked the guards and escaped.
"Why?" Old Anchor asked, a little confused.
"I don't know … there's no special reason." Qing Ping's pale face revealed a bitter smile that would immediately make anyone feel pity for her. Her lips trembled a little, and so did her hands, as if she couldn't bear the blow, and her whole body swayed a little.
"Reason? I know you're a lascivious slut who likes those gigolos. For their face, you're willing to betray your own people. Stinking whore, I told you long ago that you can't be relied on. Now I'm right, am I? When the Blood Mustering Plan began, you pretended to think about it, thinking that you could deceive us and sneak here to release your adulterers. Unfortunately, your plan will never succeed. I've seen through you long ago! You're obviously a whore who can sleep with anyone, and yet you still pretend to be some holy pearl girl. Only that idiot brother of mine would believe you! "The gorilla-like muscleman sneered venomously.
Qing Ping's lips moved slightly, but in the end, she didn't defend herself.
The coquettish Water Spider clicked her tongue and laughed. "The power of love is said to be the greatest in the world. Fuping did nothing wrong. She gave up her life for her lover, and betrayed her own people for her lover. How touching, I'm almost moved to tears."
Old Anchor looked at Qing Ping.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh. "Actually, among the younger generation, you're the one I'm most optimistic about. Compared to the strongest of the younger generation, the Wind Ape, and the Water Spider who absorbs the most energy and contributes the most to our people, you're still the one I'm most optimistic about! Although I wasn't the one who gave birth to you, I've always treated you as my daughter. All your knowledge, life skills, and combat skills were taught by me. You're undoubtedly the smartest of the younger generation. A few old men and I have always thought that the one who will inherit the position of City Lord in the future will be you, the smart girl who inherited the most ancestral blood. Even if you can't be smart, I believe that you'll still be the City Lord's wife and mother. "
"Your future is limitless, Fuping. Why did you choose this path? Do you know what it means? It means that you're betraying the people who gave birth to you and raised you! "
"I'm very sad. When you returned to your room to reflect, I always hoped that you would listen to my orders."
"But you, of all people, appeared here. You disappoint me."
"Do you remember what I taught you? Let me tell you, no matter what race or what kind of man, no one will accept us, the Cursed Clan. We, the Cursed Clan, can only ever marry within our clan. We can't marry outside, nor can we marry outside. I've told you long ago, when you're on a mission, don't let your true feelings get involved! You've always done well, so why did you fall so easily into the hands of a few pretty boys? Other than their good looks, what else do they have? They have no strength, no experience. If not for the support of a clan behind them, they would have been robbed and killed by mercenaries or bandits long ago. It's a bunch of spoiled brats like these that you actually fell in love with them. I really don't understand! If you fell in love with a powerhouse above Heaven Rank Level 5, then I can somewhat understand. But Fuping, my daughter, how did you become so ignorant? "
"…" Hearing this, Qing Ping remained silent. She didn't defend herself, nor did she completely agree with Old Anchor's words. She still insisted on her own opinion.
"Love always makes people blind. Hahaha, actually, I quite like that pretty boy too. It's a pity that he's going to turn into blood plasma tonight. Otherwise, I'd really want to absorb his energy. Other than his handsome face, that part of him is also very good. No one can compare to him. It's really a pity to turn him into a blood sacrifice." Water Spider looked at Qing Ping's expression and deliberately said this to provoke her.
Unfortunately, Qing Ping was still unmoved!
The gorilla-like muscular man walked out proudly. "Stinking whore, kneel down and accept your death!"
Old Anchor snorted. The gorilla and Water Spider quickly shut up, bowing their heads solemnly as they waited for his orders. Old Anchor stared at Qing Ping's small, pale face, his murderous intent flashing. He had already raised a large hand, as if he was going to kill Qing Ping. The gorilla and Water Spider lowered their heads in silence, but their faces were secretly delighted as they waited for Qing Ping's death. However, Old Anchor didn't kill her in the end. He even put his hand down. "Fuping, my smartest daughter, I'll give you one last chance now. As long as you kill them with your own hands, I'll forgive your mistake this time …"
"Marshal?" The gorilla and Water Spider panicked and hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
"Shut up, both of you." Old Anchor snorted angrily. The two of them trembled in fear, like chicks in a storm with nowhere to hide.
Qing Ping suddenly knelt down.
She respectfully kowtowed to Old Anchor. At first, there was a hint of joy on Old Anchor's face, thinking that Qing Ping had decided to repent. However, Qing Ping's next words made his hair stand on end. It was because what Qing Ping said was, "Marshal, my teacher, my most respected father, please forgive me. I wouldn't do that."
Old Anchor's furious outburst of energy almost pulverized the entire hall.
With great difficulty, he managed to suppress it. "Why? You tell me, why is that? With your intelligence, you should know that I've already captured them all. They're dead for sure. Why do you still insist on doing this? Whether you do it yourself or not, they're dead for sure. You know that! "
A bitter smile appeared on Qing Ping's pale face.
She shook her head. "I knew it would be like this when I was outside, but I still came in. Marshal, if you ask me why, I can't tell you. I've only known them for a few days, and I'm on a mission. I've always reminded myself not to let my feelings affect my mission. But I can't do that. I find myself yearning for their lives. Even when they're arguing, it's more reassuring than when we're singing … They're completely harmless. Here, everyone's life has a purpose, a goal, and for that purpose and goal, we'll do things that hurt others, including myself. I used to be the same. Before, I didn't think it was wrong, but after meeting them, I realized that my life was very boring. I want to live freely like them, laugh when I want to laugh, cry when I want to cry, say whatever I want to say, like whoever I want to like, go wherever I want to play … I don't want to be a traitor, I think this kind of life is very tiring, I want to live like a normal person, I want to pursue what I want like a normal person. "
"You think they'll accept you?" Old Anchor asked angrily. "Which one of them do you think will like you?"
"No, not a single one of them likes me. They all treat me very well and treat me as a friend, but not a single one of them likes me … this is the most painful and lamentable part of me!" Qing Ping's pale face was filled with sincerity.
"That's right. They won't accept you, they won't accept the Cursed Tribe. Why are you still so stupid?" Old Anchor roared.
"I don't know why either!" Qing Ping shook her head in pain. "My rationality knows that they and I are completely different, people from two different worlds. I shouldn't be with them. But my rationality has defeated the hope in my heart. I want to be with them. Even if they won't accept me, even if I'm a Cursed Tribe and can't be with them, I still have this desire. "
"Kill them, and you'll become one of us again!" Old Anchor shouted in a low voice.
"No!" Qing Ping shook her head and refused. "Even if I die, I won't hurt them … Marshal, my father, please allow me to call you father for the last time. Please forgive my stubbornness. In the future, please pretend that you never had me as your disciple and daughter! I … I really want to become a human, not a murloc. I know it's impossible, but I still want to be more accepting of people. I hope that in my next life, I can become a human and live with them. "
"You're ridiculous!" Old Anchor was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. Several times, he wanted to kill Qing Ping, but in the end, he suppressed his anger and took a deep breath. "I'll give you one last chance. Tell me which man you like, and I'll use the Cursed Blood to make him one of us!"
"Marshal?" The gorilla and Water Spider were shocked. Even now, the Marshal still hoped to save Qing Ping?
"…" Qing Ping was also stunned. She first felt a surge of joy, thinking that there was a chance for things to turn for the better. But then she shook her head. "I … I can't do that! They can die, but we can't taint them! I don't like anyone. No, no, I don't like anyone in particular. Just kill them. I'd rather they die than see them become murlocs … "
"Objection overruled. Throw her into a cell and find the man she likes the most. Kill the rest." Old Anchor pressed his hand on Qing Ping's head. A special energy unlocked the ancient curse of betrayal in her body. Qing Ping screamed in pain, and purplish-black ancient runes appeared all over her body.
"I'll give you one hour. You can bring the man you like and come back to me. If you don't come back after this time, you'll be turned into a puddle of blood by the ancient curse. "
Old Anchor's large hand waved heavily.
Water Spider immediately grabbed the exhausted Qing Ping in his hand like an eagle grabbing a chick. With a few sinister chuckles, he disappeared in a flash.
The muscular gorilla was a little anxious. "Marshal, Qing Ping clearly belongs to my brother. How can she be taken by an outsider? Even if that kid has turned into a body like ours under the influence of the Cursed Blood, it's hard to avoid harboring evil intentions! And the ancient curse in Qing Ping's body has already been unlocked. If there's no male's Cursed Blood to neutralize it within an hour, she'll melt into a puddle of blood and die. Even if that kid accepts the Cursed Blood, he's still in the process of transforming. There's no way he can immediately … My brother isn't here either. It'll be such a pity if she dies like this! "
Old Anchor glared at him. "Water Ape, do you mean to say that you want to do it for her?"
The muscular gorilla didn't dare to meet Old Anchor's eyes. He lowered his head and replied, "Qing Ping is the most beautiful of the younger generation. She's still a virgin because she's being groomed to be the future wife of the city lord. If she melts into a puddle of blood and dies, it'll be such a waste. My brother isn't here, don't you think? Marshal, I've always been loyal to you! "
"Water Ape, to be honest, I wanted Qing Ping to bring a lover out as a delaying tactic. I won't trust or accept a human at all. Moreover, a large amount of pure human blood is needed to resurrect the ancestors. These two are the most suitable choices. One less may not be enough to meet the requirements for resurrection. Qing Ping was confused for a moment. I hope she realizes her mistake. Water Ape, I'm aware of your pursuit of her. Although you're not the most outstanding of the younger generation, you're loyal enough. You've given a hundred percent for your people. I'm quite satisfied with your performance. How about this, if your brother, Wind Ape, can't make it in time, I'll consider handing over the task of saving Qing Ping to you. But only this once. She's destined to become the future wife of the city lord and the future mother of the city lord. We've spent so much effort to groom her for the sake of the next generation! "Old Anchor showed his gratitude to his subordinate, but also warned him not to be greedy.
"Thank you, Marshal. Water Ape will forever be loyal to you!" The gorilla was overjoyed. He knelt down and kowtowed frantically, kowtowing as if he was pounding garlic.
A row of dark bottom-decks was temporarily set up as prison cells.
From time to time, Hybrid Fishmen would enter and drag out some limp and defenseless humans. They would cut off their necks and let out their blood, collecting large amounts of fresh blood for later use.
Water Spider came to a small bottom-deck prison cell. He ordered the guard to open the steel cover and threw Qing Ping inside. He laughed evilly, "My most beautiful and intelligent sister, please enjoy the last hour of your life with your beloved little lover!"
Qing Ping fell involuntarily onto someone's body with a thud.
She raised her head and found that the person she had hit was actually the big pervert that she hated the most.
"What kind of situation is this? Even a beauty throwing herself into my arms while I'm in prison, it's all worth it! " Yue Yang placed Qing Ping, who was in his arms, on the ice-cold bottom of the cabin. The attentive Prince of Tian Luo didn't forget to spread his coat on top of her. Qing Ping was so moved that she almost shed tears. However, her moment of being moved was ruined by Yue Yang's actions. His wolfish hands were pressed on her towering breasts, pretending to feel her heartbeat. "Luckily, this beauty that fell from the sky still has a heartbeat …"
"Nonsense, even a blind person can see that she's alive!" Fatty Hai was furious. "Even if she's dead, you can't touch her breasts!"
"If she's dead, would she still care about me touching her?" Yue Yang expressed that a dead person wouldn't object to him touching her breasts.
"But she's not dead yet!" Fatty Hai almost fainted from anger.
"She's not dead, but she doesn't seem to have any objections. She likes it when I touch her!" Yue Yang said that Qing Ping's silence was a tacit agreement. This kind of barbaric pervert theory almost made Qing Ping want to kick him into the sky. Wouldn't it be better to just admit that you're a pervert after touching her breasts?
"Ah, if she doesn't object, then I'll touch her too …" Fatty Hai rolled up his sleeves, but before he could reach out, he was kicked to the ground by Ye Kong.
"Are you a pig? This is Sister Qing Ping!" Ye Kong seemed to only recognize Qing Ping now.
"It's Sister Qing Ping, but it's fine if I touch her, right? I'm just worried about her. "Fatty Hai still tried to argue back with sophistry.
"Concerned about your head?" Ye Kong told Fatty Hai to scram as far as he could. This way, Fatty Hai felt wronged. He pointed at Yue Yang and shouted that it was unfair. "He touched her just now, why didn't you say anything? He's taking advantage of her! "
"Ba Jie, I'm really concerned about her … Look at the purple spots all over her body, she's probably going to die soon. Touching her is to satisfy her regret of never having been touched by a man in her life. This is a huge risk. What if these purple spots are contagious? Not good, look at the purple spots spreading continuously. It's probably contagious. It's better to stay away from her. "Yue Yang expressed that Qing Ping was 50% dead, and the other 50% was going to die soon.
"Is there any way?" Xue Tan Lang suddenly asked.
This ice cube guy's concern made Qing Ping, who originally wanted to bite Yue Yang to death, suddenly feel extremely touched.
She never thought that this ice cube guy would also care about her. If it was His Royal Highness who cared about her, then it would be fine. However, this ice cube guy would never care about others!
Prince Tian Luo carefully looked at the purplish black runes on Qing Ping's skin and shook his head lightly. "It's a very strong curse. It should have erupted from her soul and blood vessels. The eruption period is very short, and it's as ferocious as a flood bursting through a dam. It's basically aimed at destroying her race's body. It's impossible to dissolve. Forget about dissolving it, it's impossible to even alleviate it! "
It was unknown when Yue Yang took out a chicken drumstick and started to eat it. "I've said it before. She's definitely going to die. In less than an hour, she'll melt into a pool of blood. Moreover, she'll die in extreme pain."
Fatty Hai couldn't stand it anymore. "She's going to die, and you're still eating chicken drumsticks?"
Yue Yang was curious. "You mean that I'm going to cry? I'm not even close to her. If she dies, I'll just go back and tell Liu Ye about it. That little girl with a strong sense of compassion will lose a few golden beans. " Fatty Hai heard this and became angry again. "You're not close to her? If you're not close to her, why did you touch her chest? I'm so familiar with her, but I'm too embarrassed to touch it. You're too much! "
When Yue Yang heard this criticism, he smacked his lips unconcernedly. "It's not like you'll lose a piece of flesh if you touch it. What's wrong with that? Aren't you afraid of getting infected?"
Fatty Hai immediately retracted his hand as if he had been bitten by a snake. "I'm a gentleman. I'll never take advantage of others when they're down. Prince, will touching be contagious? "
"It should be!" Prince Tian Luo said.
"Oh my god, I've always wanted to be an obedient child since I was young!" Fatty Hai immediately screamed in fright and quickly hid behind Ye Kong's back.
"It's not a big deal to touch it. Since we're going to die soon, it'd be a waste not to touch it … Fatty, do you think we can walk out of this prison alive? Since we're going to die soon, we might as well enjoy ourselves. Although those curses are very scary, it's actually not bad. "Yue Yang was different. His guts were bigger than the heavens. He actually touched her chest in front of everyone.
"You, have you touched enough?" Qing Ping almost fainted from anger.
"If you didn't say it, I would have thought that you liked it. Just now, I thought that you were secretly enjoying yourself, so I came over to play along with you. Don't you like it? " Yue Yang's words could simply shock people to death. Qing Ping was so angry that she rolled her eyes. In the end, he still advised her seriously. "The size of your chest is actually not that big. You should eat more papaya stewed milk. It's said that it can help your growth!"
"Papaya stewed milk can help my growth? Alright, I'll remember it! " Fatty Hai took out a notebook and carefully recorded it down. He reckoned that this secret manual would be passed down to his descendants in the future.
"Together with a bedtime massage, you'll need at least 20 minutes." Yue Yang imparted his knowledge to Fatty Hai.
"Thank you, teacher!" With Fatty Hai's performance, if he was in kindergarten, he would definitely get a little red flower.
"Stop messing around. Can you let me say a few words?" Qing Ping had never seen a person who was about to die making such a fuss. She really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
