Yin Yin choked several times and felt the cold pool water flooding her nose and ears.

Help!

She opened her mouth, swallowed another gulp of water, and a bunch of bubbles floated up. She stomped her right leg hard, trying to shake off the hand holding her ankle. Unexpectedly, she was struck on the back of her neck with a butt of a knife, and she immediately fainted.

Yin Yin didn’t know how long she had slept, but when she opened her eyes again, there was no wet coolness on her body, and her clothes and hair were already dry.

……

How long has she slept ah?!

She looked around and found that she was in an ordinary small empty room. Sconces were lit on all four walls, and it shines brightly in this small space.

At a glance, Yin Yin saw a person sitting opposite her. She had her knees in her arms and was looking at her with big wide eyes.

The person was probably fifteen or sixteen years old, and she should be a girl. The word ‘should’ is used because the person’s face looks like a girl, but…… she was not very well developed.

As for where it was not well developed, everyone should know it.

Seeing Yin Yin woke up, the person shrank to the corner of the wall. Aware of her timidity, Yin Yin tried her best to make herself look amiable. “Hello, I am Xiaoya.”

The person still just stared at her in a daze and didn’t speak.

Yin Yin blinked and walked over cautiously. “I’m not a bad person. What is this place? Who are you?”

The person looked at Yin Yin for a long time, and finally spoke softly, “This is the Dragon Palace and I am Huihui.”

“You are Huihui?!” Yin Yin looked at her in surprise. “Wang Dachui’s eldest daughter?”

Huihui’s eyes brightened. “Do you know my father?”

Yin Yin looked at the fair and smooth skin, as well as the pretty little face of the opposite person, and became speechless.

If she is Huihui, then she must be a genetic mutation.

But if the person in front of her is not Huihui, then it can only be…… the dragon deity.

……

To see them here is really a bad luck from three lifetimes.

Yin Yin lit a candle for herself.

She took another look at the poor girl across from her. Compared to the dragon deity, she actually looked more like a little dragon girl.

Thinking of this, Yin Yin’s heart suddenly felt a chill in her heart.

No. How could the dragon deity be so young? According to Ling Long’s conclusion, the dragon deity should be an old senior in the Jianghu. But the person in front does not even seem to be as old as her.

Who the hell is she? Tianshan Tongmao? (Mt. Tianshan/Snow mountain’s child grandmother; a character in Jin Yong’s Wuxia novel <<Demigods and Semi-Devils>>. A nearly one hundred years old woman who has the appearance of a young girl.)

Although there was a lot of doubt, Yin Yin is a person who is well aware of the current situation. Since this person wants to pretend with her, then continue pretending ba. Anyway, this is her field of expertise.

“Huihui, where’s Dagou?” Yin Yin asked.

“Dagou is not locked up with me.” Huihui blinked at Yin Yin. “I haven’t seen him for a long time.”

“Oh.” Yin Yin faintly answered. “What about the Dragon Deity? Have you seen them?”

At the mention of the dragon deity, Huihui’s expression became a little scared. “The Dragon Deity is so frightening. It is a very, very big dragon with fangs!”

Yin Yin: “……”

Do you really think I’m an idiot?

Yin Yin stubbornly kept the expression on her face and continued asking for information. “What did the Dragon Deity captured you for?”

Huihui’s face suspiciously blushed and she hesitated before speaking. “Nothing. Just didn’t let us leave here.”

Yin Yin: “……”

Is she trying to mislead me? The small theatre inside Yin Yin’s brain is continuously being updated.

Since she didn’t want to say it, Yin Yin stopped asking. And while Yin Yin was thinking about what to do next, Huihui took the initiative to speak, “Sister Xiaoya, why are you also captured by the Dragon Deity?”

Because they have nothing better to do.

Although she thought so, Yin Yin naturally would not answer like this. “I was dragged down the Baishui Pool by them.”

Huihui was silent for a moment. She looked at Yin Yin and said, “Sister Xiaoya isn’t from our village, right? How did you come to the Baishui Pool?”

Yin Yin sighed solemnly. “This is a long story to tell. That day, as usual, I opened my misty eyes amidst the sounds of birds, thinking it was another peaceful day. But I didn’t know that the gears of fate had quietly begun to turn. I have to eat a meat bun every morning to feel that the day has really started, and that day was the same. I……”

Huihui impatiently interrupted the chattering Yin Yin. “Make the long story short.”

……

Come on. I still want to use this to delay time. At least let me think of a few escape plans before interrupting me again ah.

But Huihui naturally wouldn’t be so caring. Under her scorching gaze, Yin Yin quickly said, “I fell off the cliff and Wang Dachui helped me.”

“And then?”

“Then, there is no then.”

Huihui looked at Yin Yin silently. Yin Yin became covered in cold sweat. “Since you asked sincerely, then I will tell you the truth. Actually, when I heard that there is a Dragon Deity in the village, I was really…… extraordinarily excited! I have never seen a Dragon Deity until now, so I went to Baishui Pool to worship. Unexpectedly, the Dragon Deity liked me so much that they invited me to the Dragon Palace directly. Haha. “

Huihui looked at Yin Yin, suddenly buried her head and smiled. “Sister Xiaoya is here to ask the Dragon Deity to let you go back, right?”

Yin Yin blinked. “Since you know about it, why do you need to ask?”

“I just wanted to see if you are usually dishonest.”

“The result?”

“Very dishonest.” Huihui paused and added, “The Dragon Deity hates dishonest people the most.”

Yin Yin: “……”

You should say important information like this at the beginning ah!

Huihui glanced at Yin Yin and said, “If Sister Xiaoya wants to go back, I can help you.”

“You can help me?” Yin Yin repeated, feeling that it was ridiculous.

“En.” Huihui didn’t think so. “I know the way out.”

……

What you know is not the way to the netherworld, right?

But Yin Yin knew that she couldn’t break this layer of window paper (the truth was known to everyone, but no one wants to uncover it), otherwise this person might immediately send her to the netherworld. So she decided to continue to play Tai Chi with this person (to avoid by going in circles). “Since you know the way out, why didn’t you escape?”

Huihui said, “I am a sacrifice to the Dragon Deity, how can I leave the Dragon Palace?”

When Huihui said this, her expression was very serious. Such a pious sacrifice is really rare.

“But Sister Xiaoya is different. You are not from our village, so naturally there is no need for you to stay in the Dragon Palace.”

Thank you for your understanding. Yin Yin smiled sincerely at Huihui.

“Follow me.” Huihui walked ahead and led the way. She opened a door, and a long and narrow corridor appeared in front of Yin Yin.

Wall sconces were lit at intervals on both sides of the corridor, making it look as if the corridor have no end.

Yin Yin frowned and followed Huihui out. She was like a meat on a chopping block –she has no choice.

“Sister Xiaoya, what did you do before?” Huihui’s voice floated lightly from the front.

“Me?” Yin Yin thought for a while. “Our family sells pork, so I especially like to eat meat buns made from our pork. As I just said, I start every morning with a meat bun……”

“I like human steamed stuff buns.” Realizing that Yin Yin was about to start a long talk again, Huihui turned her head slightly, and glanced at her from the corners of her eyes.

……

The rest of the way was exceptionally quiet.

Yin Yin followed Huihui to the door of a large room. She looked inside curiously.

There was a pungent smell inside. Yin Yin couldn’t tell what it was, but the smell was very uncomfortable. Yin Yin subconsciously frowned. The layout of the room…… is very much like a science laboratory, with many bottles and jars and scattered paper on the floor, painted with symbols that Yin Yin couldn’t understand. There were also some strange-looking plants that Yin Yin had never seen before placed on the corner.

The most noticeable thing was the three large water vats in the middle of the room. The pungent smell came from these vats.

Huihui walked to the vat in the middle and stopped. “The exit is right here.”

Yin Yin: “……”

“This is the connecting point between the Dragon Palace and the entrance of Baishui Village. From here, you can reach the outside of the village directly.”

Yin Yin: “……”

There is actually such a high-end and high-grade thing like a portal here. Yin Yin felt that she really underestimated the dragon deity.

Huihui pointed to the water vat and expressionlessly said, “Go in.”

Yin Yin: “……”

She is now sure that this brat really treats her as a fool.

Seeing Yin Yin standing still, Huihui frowned impatiently. “Why are you not going in?”

“……I suddenly discovered that the Dragon Palace is actually quite beautiful. I want to tour it again.”

Huihui snorted coldly. “We’re already here. Don’t you want to go back?” She walked a few steps toward Yin Yin. “Since you don’t want to go in, I’ll just have to throw you.”

Yin Yin subconsciously stepped back, and was just about to turn around and escape when the vat near the door suddenly moved, making a “creak, creak” sound.

Huihui’s attention was attracted by the vat. She frowned and stared at it.

The vat started to shook more and more fiercely. Until finally, there was a loud “bang”, and the water vat burst open from the inside, splattering water in all direction. Yin Yin hurriedly dodges aside with her face blocked.

“Rooaaarrrr!!” A man jumped out of the water vat. His skin was dark and emaciated, and his eyes bulging as if they were about to fall out from the sockets. He looked very terrifying.

The man’s gaze wandered around the room, and when he saw Huihui, he was like a firecracker being lit –he flew over at once. Huihui’s eyes became frosty. She flashed away from where she had just stood, and went around behind the man. She pulled his hands behind his back with one hand, grabbed his neck with the other and coldly said, “You can be free tomorrow. Why ask for suffering?”

Even when the man was caught, he still barked frantically like a mad dog, itching to pounce on Huihui and bite her.

“Tsk.” Huihui pursed her lips. “Refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit.” (be forced to do what one at first declined) As soon as she tightened her fingers on the man’s neck, the man screamed. Yin Yin was shocked when she heard the cry.

Huihui knocked the back of the man’s neck, and the man finally fainted.

Yin Yin frowned. This technique was exactly the same as the one that had knocked her out before.

Huihui dragged one of the man’s legs, pulled him aside, and dropped him in the corner like a rag. Yin Yin, who was struggling to reduce her presence, felt cold eyes as frightening as a snake suddenly stared at her.

“Alas, Sister Xiaoya, you really have a bad luck.” Although Huihui was sighing, there was a happy smile on her lips. “In this case, Huihui can only send you on the road.”
