Chapter 1128: Da Bao’s Journey To a Different World
Translation
“Burn her — burn her — burn this monster, burn this monster...”
In the square, human figures floated around. The onlookers surrounded the entire Yan Tai Tower. The guards and soldiers standing on the city tower looked at the restless crowd in front of them and frowned.
When it was close to noon, the people below the city tower became more and more anxious. Human figures floated around, and each of their faces carried a kind of angry roar.
The girl who was tied to the wooden stake lowered her head. Her clothes were ragged, and her body was covered in blood. Even though she was far away, the smell of blood coming from the shop could not stop it from wafting in all directions.
The scorching summer sun was scorching and hot. It looked like it was going to dry up the entire Summer Liang City. More and more people came to watch, but the scorching sun did not reduce the heat at all.
“I’m not a monster, I’m not a monster. Save me, Grandpa, save me...”
Her mumbling words had long been drowned out by the clamor of the crowd. Her eyes were tightly shut, as if she was afraid of seeing the scene where the people of the entire country wanted her life.
The two strange protrusions on her lowered head were so obvious. Under the sunlight, they revealed a cold and gloomy light.
“Look, look, she has indeed grown horns. She has grown bigger and bigger. She is a monster, she is a monster.”
How could she be a monster? She was Wen Jiu, the eldest daughter of the Wen family. How could she be a monster?
She was just playing around and accidentally ate the pill offered by the ancestral hall. How could she have known that things would turn out like this?
Overnight, a red spot the size of a palm appeared on her face, and two strange horns suddenly grew on her head.
She was only eight years old. She had never harmed anyone, nor did she know how to do so.
......
However, the livestock within a radius of ten miles was all dead, and the Jin Kingdom did not see any rain falling in March. All of these were actually blamed on her. They said that she was a demon that could bring disaster to the country, and that she was a calamity that had come.
Her biological parents had locked her in a cage. Dog blood, intense fire, and vicious beatings. Every day, she experienced different torments.
Now, they had actually used the Jing Kingdom’s most precious treasure, the demon chain, to trap her and burn her to death.
Who could save her? Who would save her?
Her grandfather who was on an expedition?
Would he take out his family’s most precious treasure to save her life?
How innocent she was, how innocent she was!
A young couple slowly walked forward with torches in their hands. The people under the stands gradually quieted down and only looked at them with burning eyes.
“Father, Mother, save me. Jiu’er is not a monster, I am not.”
Seeing her parents come forward, Wen Jiu had a small hope in her heart. However, she was fated not to have such an extravagant request.
“Evil creature, you are a monster that brought disaster to the country and destroyed the world. The imperial tutor has long calculated that you will be burned to death by a raging fire this afternoon. Stop causing trouble. You are an evil creature born by me, and I will destroy you as I please.”
“Madam, why don’t we wait for Father? Father will probably send some news. Who knows, it might save Jiu’er’s life?”
After all, they were blood-related flesh and blood. Wen Zhongguo couldn’t bear it. However, the 800 Li Express Delivery had already been sent out for eight days, and there was still no trace of it. Father doted on Jiu’er the most. Would he be willing to use the get-out-of-jail-free card to save Jiu’er’s life? In fact, it was hard for him to say.
When Wen Jiu heard her father’s words, a glimmer of faith rose in her heart. Yes, there was still her grandfather. Her grandfather would save her. Her grandfather had once told her that she was the hope of the Wen family’s army, the most outstanding descendant of the Wen family. Her grandfather would definitely be willing to use the get-out-of-jail-free card to save her.
“The imperial edict has been issued. Why would Father use the get-out-of-jail-free card to save a yellow-skinned child?”
“Is my husband also possessed?”
“This is an evil creature! How could it be our child?”
“Could it be that my husband has forgotten about the eldest and second child who died young? It’s her, it’s all because of this evil creature.”
When the Wen family heard about the two sons who died young, hatred appeared in their eyes. Clearly, they were born from the same birth, two sons and one daughter. Yet, those two brothers were killed by this d*mn girl. The Wen Qin family wished they could execute this monster that was neither human nor demon.
Evil creature, she was an evil creature. She was the biological daughter of her mother. However, her treatment was not even as good as that of her mother’s servant girl. In the end, she had to trouble her biological mother to take her life.
“Report — Marshal, 800 Li Express –”
A voice came from the distance. The sound of the galloping horse’s footsteps hit Wen Jiu’s heart. It was her grandfather, her grandfather had sent people to save her. It must be, she was saved, she must be saved. She turned her head full of hope... She did not dare to miss a sound.
“The Marshal has given orders. Obey the Emperor’s orders and execute the monster immediately. Burn its bones and throw them into the Ten Thousand Bone Cave!”
Throw them into the Ten Thousand Bone Cave?
Her grandfather said that the execution of a monster would be thrown into the Ten Thousand Bone Cave?
Ten Thousand Bone Cave?
There, what kind of place was that? Even she, an eight-year-old child, knew that it was the ancient battlefield where bones were buried and corpses were buried. For many years, no one dared to approach it. It was rumored that there were monsters everywhere and evil spirits floated around. They wanted to throw her there? Her own grandfather was going to throw her there?
“Ahh–”
With a tearing roar, her eyes that had been tightly shut opened. Her blood-red eyes stared fiercely at her flesh and blood relatives who were eager to take her life.
A monster that could bring disaster to the country? A demon in the chaotic world?
She was an eight-year-old child, and they were actually so cruel!
And there were so many people below the stage who wanted her life. They said that she was a monster, that she was a monster. At this moment, she would rather be a monster. If she was a monster, she would want the entire Jin Kingdom to be destroyed, and she would want all the ants that took her life to be buried here. She also wanted the Jin Kingdom to bleed profusely. They would never be able to turn the tides of life and death.
“Burn her, burn her, burn the demon...”
“It’s noon!”
Peng...
Flames rose up and she struggled with all her might. She could only watch as the flames burned her hands and feet. However, the demon chains tied her tightly. Her entire body was burning to the bone and she felt an indescribable pain.
Her bloodshot eyes watched as her biological parents burned her to death. Other than screaming at the top of her lungs, she also felt a bone-deep hatred toward the tens of thousands of people below her. She had no other thoughts.
She screamed at the top of her lungs. A roar that soared into the sky came from the fire. The people who were cheering excitedly when the fire was ignited a moment ago all fell silent when they heard this cry. They did not dare to make any other sound.
The capital city, which was filled with people, could not hear anything other than the roar.
The fire burned for three days and three nights. The fire was extinguished, and the rain fell. The entire nation cheered.
...The Ancient Desolate Land, Ten Thousand Bone Cave...
“Little girl, think carefully. Once you inject my demon core into your body, from now on, you will be half-human and half-demon. Whether it is the human world, the demon world, or even the entire Six Realms, there will be no place for you.”
In the dark red surging cave, under the burning of the boiling magma, a bright red Qilin was locked in the boiling magma, the huge Qilin that was glowing with golden light and had a dragon’s head, antlers, lion’s eyes, a tiger’s back, a bear’s waist, snake scales, horse hooves, and a cow’s tail was locked in the rolling magma by four thick black iron demon chains. It was experiencing inhuman torture and suffering.
Its voice was low and hoarse, like an old man who was about to die from old age. Every word it said was breathless, as if it was about to die.
Wen Jiu got up from the ground. The red spots on her face were burned even brighter by the red light of the cave. The pair of horns on her head was very similar to the antlers of the fire Qilin.
Wen Jiu touched the horns on her head and looked at the charred skin all over her body. What about half-human and half-demon?
So what if she was not recognized by the Six Realms?
It was at least ten times, a hundred times more powerful than being abandoned by her family, chased by thousands of people, and trapped in this Ten Thousand Bone Cave by fire.
“As long as I can walk out of here alive, as long as I can see the light of day again, so what if I’m half-human and half-demon? So what if I’m not human and half-demon? I don’t fear being abandoned by the Six Realms, and I don’t regret being abandoned by the people.”
“I want to go out, I want to be free, I want the Jin Kingdom to be destroyed, I want all the ants who took my life to be buried here, and I want the Jin Kingdom to bleed profusely, and I want to die with no chance of turning over a new leaf.”
