Chapter 275 Protect it like you love life (12)

Outside the basement, the man known as the gang leader stood at the table, looking at a piece of information written on silk.

Someone came up from the basement, came up to him, and offered a bracelet.

"Master, it seems that Song Hong's apprentice really doesn't know where the Divine Light Stone is. There is only this bracelet with a silver shell that can be opened and closed. It looks like it has contained something, maybe the Divine Light Stone. .”

"show me."

"yes."

The gang leader took a look at the bracelet, and asked in doubt: "...There doesn't seem to be anything unusual about this thing?"

"Yes, we have also looked at it for a long time. We only know what kind of metal it is, but we don't know its texture."

"It's possible, how about it, the one above is coming soon. When the time comes, just offer it up."

"Yes! How about Song Hong's apprentice?"

"I didn't expect to find out from her at the beginning, just throw it there, give me some medicine, don't kill me, and ask Song Hong to exchange his apprentice with the Divine Light Stone."

"Yes! The leader is wise!"

The subordinate thought to himself, even if he didn't intend to ask at the beginning, the gang leader just stepped on and broke the girl's foot... As expected of the gang leader, he has the ruthlessness that a truly successful person should have.

"Wait a minute, I know what this thing is."

A strange voice came from the door.

The leader's voice became respectful: "My lord, you are here. Since your lord knows about this thing, please take over your lord."

With that said, he said coldly to his subordinates:

"Back off!"

The subordinate lowered his head and hurriedly retreated.

He knew that this was the arrival of a great big shot, whose status was even higher than their gang leader.

"Wait a minute," the person who came stopped the subordinate and instructed, "Song Hong's apprentice, don't torture her anymore, be careful to kill her. Keep it, it will be useful."

"Yes!" The subordinate hurriedly responded.

After a while, someone entered the basement, pinched the girl's cheek, took out a pill, and stuffed it into the girl's mouth.

She was no longer swallowing, so the man roughly stuffed the medicine down her throat with his fingers, brought another glass of water, squeezed her throat, and forced it down.

The water flowed into the trachea, and the girl choked and coughed.

The man patted her throat to confirm that she had swallowed the medicine, then put down the water glass and left.

Only the girl was left with her head down, coughing from time to time.

The basement was silent.

After a long time, the girl slowly raised her head, revealing an extremely haggard face.

Xiaoqiu.

She looked down at her stomach.

The extremities are cold, only there is a slight heat.

The Shenguang Stone is not there, it is in her stomach.

Anyway, she saved this thing for Master.

two months ago.

Master took away the treasure of the palace, the Shenguang Stone, from the Sea Moon Palace.

Xiaoqiu still remembers the amazing feeling she felt when she saw the Shenguang Stone for the first time.

It was a slender, faceted stone.

There are several facets, but not transparent like gemstones. It is opaque during the day, but glows brightly at night.

Moreover, under its light, some things that would not glow at night will also have the ability to glow for a short time.

The soft and warm light and shadow, like the protection of the gods, make people feel extremely at ease when they see it.

Song Hong picked up the Shenguang Stone and a chain placed beside the Shenguang Stone.

At the end of the chain is a hard metal shell.

When it is closed, it is just enough to put the Shenguang Stone in, the card slot fits, and it is locked tightly.

And by pressing a protrusion on the shell where it connects with the chain, it can be easily opened to reveal the Shenguang Stone.

Song Hong looked at the Shenguang Stone over and over, but couldn't see any secrets, so he had to let it go.

He put the chain containing the Shenguang stone on Xiaoqiu's arm, and then covered it with his sleeve. At that time, the weather was already a little cold, and they wore a lot of clothes, and the clothes were covered, and it was impossible to see that they were wearing chains.

"Help me keep it safe. I sometimes fight with people and don't care about my belongings, so it's safer for you to hold it." Song Hong said. He usually puts light sundries in a cloth bag for Xiaoqiu to carry.

Xiao Qiu nodded quickly.

"This thing is extremely important to me. You have to take care of it in the same way you take care of your life. Don't lose it." Song Hong asked solemnly.

Xiaoqiu also became serious.

Although the thing Master gave her is a very important treasure, it is also like a bracelet.

It's like a gift.

She grew up in the Lonely Garden and never received any gifts, but she knew that children from rich families would always have presents on their birthdays. She is very envious, but her experience since she was a child prevents her from speaking out or fighting.

Does Master know that her birthday is five days away?

Must have known.

Xiaoqiu was looking forward to it in her heart.

That's why she gave her the divine light stone, which was so beautiful and important, and took so much effort to snatch it, for her to wear on her hand.

There was a hint of happiness and sweetness in her heart.

Master is usually very strict, but sometimes he is very kind to her.

Later, they went to several places.

The Sacred Light Stone was taken away, which would definitely attract the attention of many people. Originally, Sea Moon Palace had been hiding the existence of this thing, but once it was taken away, they would definitely make it public and let everyone snatch it.

But Song Hong still wanted to keep the stone. So I took her to hide XZ all the time. The money ran out quickly, and they hadn't actually saved much before. Song Hong often got drunk, and when he was in a bad mood, he would gamble and spend a lot of money.

Song Hong's decadence is temporary, and Xiao Qiu always takes care of him considerately, until he recovers from the depressed state, regains his strength, and starts teaching Xiao Qiu to practice martial arts and earn money.

Because he had no money to use, Song Hong had to take the risk to come to a big border city like Canggu City, and began to find acquaintances to take over jobs to earn money.

Although he was careful, the traces inevitably leaked out.

On the same day, Song Hong sent Xiaoqiu to the inn, let her stay there, and left. And Xiao Qiu didn't sleep, she lay on the bed and waited for Master to come back.

Although Xiaoqiu was wrapped in the quilt, she was worried and couldn't sleep peacefully.

Just after she waited for a long time, she heard a slight noise outside the window. Then, someone opened the door.

The door was locked, but the person who came opened it quietly without a sound, and there was no sound of keys being knocked.

Xiaoqiu immediately understood that she was a master.

Someone pinched the latch on the side of the door with internal force and pushed the door open.

They must have come for the Shenguang Stone, Xiaoqiu guessed it.

Master has been famous for so long, and she has been with him for almost two years, and she has never encountered such dangers. After taking away the Divine Light Stone, dangers came one after another. This time, the master is not around, but the enemy has a real master, she is very dangerous.

So, Xiaoqiu quickly opened the metal shell on the bracelet in bed, picked up the Shenguang Stone which was about the size of a ginkgo fruit, and swallowed it in one gulp without hesitation, and tried her best to swallow it.

Master has said that the Shenguang Stone is very important to him, and there must be no loss.

Her martial arts is not good enough to keep such an important treasure, but she will use her own way to fulfill the entrustment of the master.

At that moment, she didn't think about whether swallowing this magical stone would have any unpredictable consequences.

Then, she was beaten unconscious and taken away.

Then, she was woken up by being splashed with water, and found herself in a dark basement.

Moreover, he was handcuffed, beaten with a whip, and interrogated.

Those people really came for the Shenguang Stone, Xiao Qiu thought happily, fortunately she had protected the stone in advance.

She will never hand over the Divine Light Stone.

Because it was entrusted to her by the master for safekeeping, and it was the most important thing for the master. She will definitely love her own life... No, she will definitely love it more than her own life.

Xiaoqiu, from the beginning to the end, never thought about handing over the stone in exchange for her own safety.
