C17 Chapter 17 past Life Trestle Remembers past Life

Qin Ji glanced at Yun Yan, picked up the bowl of noodles in her hand and took a bite. The blood flowed down the corner of her mouth. Then, she picked up another eyeball and placed it in her mouth, chewing it. Seeing this, Yun Yan's originally calming heart once again felt a wave of disgust. She once again lay on the table and retched.

Qin Ji looked at Yun Yan, who was still retching, and said with a disgusted expression, "If you don't want to eat it, don't waste it. I have been starving for a long time."

Yun Yan looked at the bowl of noodles that was covered in blood and waved her hand, saying, "Let me give it to you."

Qin Ji unceremoniously brought the bowl in front of Yun Yan to her and started to eat it. Yun Yan felt that her body and mind had been greatly ravaged. It was even worse than chewing the arm. She really couldn't swallow this soup.

Wait, something doesn't seem right … Yun Yan came back to his senses. How could an ordinary inn make such food for guests? Could it be that this inn?

Yun Yan suddenly sat up straight like a bolt of lightning. Qin Ji was shocked by her sudden action. Qin Ji glared at her and said, "What are you doing? Why are you so surprised?"

Yun Yan quickly smiled and replied, "Nothing, nothing. I suddenly remembered something."

Qin Ji said, "What is it?"

Yun Yan paused, then said mysteriously, "This place doesn't seem like an ordinary inn."

Qin Ji pointed to the bowl of red blood in front of her and said, "Did you just realize that? How can there be such food in an ordinary inn?"

Yun Yan scratched her head and said, "I just realized it. Although I am not a human, we usually don't eat these things."

Qin Ji shook her head and said, "What kind of demon are you? Haven't you eaten before?"

Yun Yan laughed dryly and said, "Yunque."

Qin Ji said thoughtfully, "Oh, so it's Yun Que. I was wondering, demons should also eat humans. What do you usually eat? Bugs? I'll ask the store if there are any bugs. "

While they were talking, Qin Ji had already called the shorty over and asked seriously, "Do you have bugs in your store? It's best if they are fat and soft."

The shorty clasped his hands and said slowly, "This customer's taste is really unique."

Before Yun Yan could say anything, Qin Ji said first, "It's not me, it's this young master. His taste is unique."

Yun Yan waved his hand, but the two of them were in a good mood and completely ignored her. Yun Yan could only lower his head and give up.

The shorty said, "Sorry, this customer, we open the Dark Store. We usually only prepare fresh meat. As for bugs …" The shorty looked at Yun Yan awkwardly and said, "There really aren't any."

Yun Yan finally heaved a sigh of relief. She really didn't want to hear the shorty say there were bugs. Then would she eat those fat, soft bugs in front of them?

Yun Yan smiled and said to the shorty, "It's alright, I don't need it anymore."

The shorty had an expression of helplessness. He shrugged and made an apologetic expression towards Yun Yan. Qin Ji said, "It's fine here. Go and do what you need to do."

The shorty ran back to the chair behind the counter and sat down.

Yun Yan looked carefully at everything in the inn. There was no life in the dim candlelight. The Netherworld that the shorty mentioned just now, wasn't it a ghost shop?

The Netherworld in the Six Realms had always been low-key. They were different from the Devil Clan and the Demon Clan, who were usually high-profile. Due to their special circumstances, most of them were active at night. It was the first time that Yun Yan, who had always been cultivating with her master, had come into contact with the Netherworld. Furthermore, she had met two of them at once. Yun Yan looked at Qin Ji, then looked at the shorty. It seemed that this inn was neither big nor small. It didn't seem like there was only the shorty alone.

Yun Yan couldn't help but feel curious. After pondering for a moment, she slowly asked Qin Ji, "Sister, we've known each other for a while now. We don't know each other very well. You seem to have a story to tell. The night is long. Why don't you tell me your story?"

Qin Ji looked at Yun Yan in front of her with an expectant expression. Qin Ji was in a good mood at the moment. Her stiff face once again revealed a smile. "I'm in a good mood today. I'll tell you my story."

After that, Qin Ji looked at the candles on the table, her gaze becoming distant. Then, her bright red lips parted slightly as she began to tell Yun Yan a story about her.

Qin Ji was originally a citizen of the Dongzhou Country. Due to her family's fall, she was reduced to a mortal. She relied on her skills to attract many customers, and with a leap, she became the top beauty of the capital. Many of the high officials and dignitaries were willing to throw away their money in order to win her smile.

Qin Ji's name quickly spread throughout the entire Dongzhou Country. When the king of the Dongzhou heard that there was actually such a woman in the world, he summoned her to the palace. Who would have thought that Qin Ji was also a woman with backbone? She said that she wanted to monopolize her. As long as she took down the neighboring country and gave it to Qin Ji as a gift, she would be able to obtain Qin Ji forever.

Unexpectedly, Qin Ji's joke actually caused the king of the Dongzhou Country to personally lead his troops to attack the neighboring country. The battle was extremely bitter. The Dongzhou Country practically used all of its strength to fight, with hundreds of thousands of people fighting. When they returned, only a few tens of thousands of people remained. For a time, the number of men in the Dongzhou Country suddenly decreased, and the country was left with only the old, weak, sick, and disabled. In the past three years, other than the white mourning banners everywhere, there seemed to be no other color in the country.

At this moment, Qin Ji felt that all of this had nothing to do with her. After all, she had only said a joke. She felt that this matter should be blamed on the king of the country, and not on a prostitute.

Qin Ji did not expect that his words would become the beginning of her miserable fate. She, who originally had the beauty of a city, was escorted to the most bustling street by many women. She was being humiliated by everyone. Her face and body were slashed by knives and golden hairpins again and again. Qin Ji, whose body was completely naked, was thrown into a pit that was filled with countless vipers. Her screams continued for several days.

The poisonous snake bit her flesh and blood bit by bit. Qin Ji looked at her hand that was only left with bones and smiled coldly, "Why was I bitten by the poisonous snake? Why was I humiliated by others? Why am I still alive?"

Then, she turned around and saw the wriggling snakes and the pile of bones in the snake pit. Qin Ji felt her body becoming lighter and lighter. She looked around and found that she had died long ago. The skeleton in the snake pit was her corpse.

"Hahahahaha!" She finally laughed out loud. Everything was so absurd, and the most ridiculous thing was that the king of the Dongzhou had never seen her before.

Some people said that the king of the Dongzhou really loved Qin Ji. Qin Ji loved Du Luo alone, so the king of the Dongzhou ordered the entire country to plant Du Luo. Some people also said that Qin Ji had died in the right way.
