I Was Once a Legend

cold and hungry.

With a dull pain in his head, Dong Zheng opened his eyes, he was lying curled up on the cold ground, a mouse was hanging by his hand, trying to nibble on his fingers.

Dong Zheng moved his hand, the fat mouse didn't look scared at all, it was still squeaking and trying to bite him.

Dong Zheng grabbed the mouse by its tail and threw it aside.

The mouse finally got into the gap of the debris pile and slipped away.

Dong Zheng looked around, it was a very dark room, piled up with a lot of messy things, and there was a lot of dust, obviously no one had used it for a long time.Dong Zheng saw some wooden objects with very strange shapes and structures. Although they were very dilapidated, they could still be seen to be very sophisticated in shape.

There was only one narrow window, sealed by wooden strips, and faint light leaked through the gap between the seal and the broken door panel, keeping the room from being completely dark.

Every part of his body kept protesting, telling how uncomfortable it was at this moment. Dong Zheng took a few deep breaths to adapt to the current physical state, and then slowly got up with his body supported.

The visual height when he was fully standing up and those small hands told Dong Zheng that he was a small child now, and the style of the tattered clothes with patches on his body, the types of sundries, and the straw sandals on his feet also made Dong Zheng He has a rough guess about the age of this world.

Is it an ancient setting...

Dong Zheng checked whether there were any wounds on his arms and body. His long hair was draped in a mess behind him. It was a little hot. From time to time, rats creaked out of the corner, not afraid of him at all, and gnawed on the wood openly.

At this time, the prompt from the box appeared in his mind for the first time.

【Challenge Mission: Leaving Wenxuan Court】

Wenxuan Court should be the Bie Yuan where this small broken house is located. There are countless large and small scratches on his body, and there are some traces of being beaten out obviously.Dong Zheng touched his waist, and his hands stopped suddenly.

Dong Zheng: ………………………?

He touched the place again in disbelief.

Dong Zheng's expression froze on his face.

He grabbed it hard, but there was nothing.

Dong Zheng's expression cracked.

The turbulent waves in Dong Zheng's heart were accurately conveyed into Cui Zuojing's heart through the prisoner's contract. He could fully understand Dong Zheng's feelings when he regained his feelings, and the figure of a young man appeared beside Dong Zheng.

The child in front of him was covered in dust, his tattered clothes were barely able to keep him warm, and his little feet were stepping on a pair of straw sandals whose bottoms were about to be worn out. Only those big eyes showed that they should not be in the house at all. The sharpness and calm that appear in children.

Oh no, it's full of shock and shock at this moment.

That immature but recognizable little beauty's face, long hair and a headband that barely hangs on it clearly shows that this is a real little girl.

"Pfft." Cui Zuojing couldn't hold back, he squeezed Dong Zheng's small face, squatted down in front of him, looked at Lori Dong Zheng, tilted his head, and said, "Do you know what you look like now?"

"I don't know." Dong Zheng sighed and tugged at his shirt. This kind of high vision made him very uncomfortable, but fortunately, although his body was restricted, all his abilities were still there.

Cui Zuojing poked here and touched there, almost to death, the little girl in front of her could still see Dong Zheng's appearance, if Dong Zheng had a daughter, it must be like this, right?

With the palm of his hand, he wiped away the stains on Dong Zheng's face little by little, pulled off the hair tie, and helped him re-tie his hair a little.

Cui Zuojing combed her younger sister's hair a lot in the past, and over the past ten years, the technique is still not unfamiliar.

Dong Zheng let him go and asked, "Can you move around at will?"

"It's a bit difficult. There are quite a lot of constraints on the prisoner in the challenge box." Cui Zuojing tied a bow, he looked around, couldn't help pinching Dong Zheng's face again, and said, "I guess I can't go outside If you stay too long, someone may come over later, so it's better to be safe in the prisoner's space."

Dong Zheng hummed, and rolled up his trousers to check his legs. The straw sandals were torn, and the soles of his feet were stained with blood. Obviously, it is not difficult to guess how much the child suffered before he was locked up in the miscellaneous room.

Without any hints about the plot, Dong Zheng did not act rashly for the time being. Enduring the pain all over his body, he searched the room, hoping to at least treat the wound briefly.

The overly slender arm seemed to break if it was lightly folded. I don't know how long I have been hungry and thirsty, and I have no strength at all.

Cui Zuojing was helping him, and he lifted a tightly covered large tank, covered his mouth and nose in the dust and took two steps back, waited for a while, went up to look, and found that there were only mortise and tenon structures inside. bird.

Cui Zuojing took it out for research. It is a very precise handicraft, driven entirely by gears and clockwork. The bird's wings, head, and feet can move to a large extent. There is also a cavity in the stomach, probably For things.

This small shabby house was full of discarded things, and they couldn't find anything useful. The two decided not to waste time. Cui Zuojing tore off the top and wrapped it on Luoli Dong Zheng's feet, making extremely simple shoes. It's also better than the pair of broken straw sandals that hurt your feet when you wear them.

Cui Zuojing found a thin piece of wood, and easily cut open the door of the miscellaneous room. Fresh air rushed in mixed with the wind, carrying the dull moisture of rainy days.It's going to rain.

This is indeed the corner of a certain courtyard. Looking over the palace wall, you can see the pavilions and pavilions in the distance. Dong Zheng walked all the way close to the corner, and vaguely heard someone talking.

"How many more?"

"Four. I found one last night and locked it in the miscellaneous room. I'll wash her up later and take her there with me."

Two young girls dressed as court ladies hurried past not far away, even speaking in a low voice and hurriedly.

It is estimated that he is the "one" of the two people. What are these people doing?Collect a certain amount of population?Or a specific little girl like him?

Those two people went towards the miscellaneous room, Dong Zheng secretly said badly, and immediately ran from the blind corner behind them, he was almost the same as barefoot, without making a sound, he hid beside a tree and squatted down, The thin body is perfectly hidden by the tree trunk.

Cui Zuojing picked up a stone and threw it on the opposite roof.

"Who!" The maid stopped vigilantly, and after a few seconds, she walked in the direction of the voice.

Dong Zheng took the opportunity to run to a place near the entrance of the other courtyard, and hid behind the stone railing. He looked around, and the layout of the entire courtyard was clearly presented in his mind.

There are two gates in the north and south respectively, the north gate is closed, and the south gate is next to it. I don't know if there are guards outside, so he dare not go out rashly.

The safest way is to climb over the wall, but with his current height and physical fitness, it is absolutely impossible to climb over such a high palace wall.

Just as Dong Zheng was thinking, the boy quietly came to his side.

Cui Zuojing looked around and made the same decision as Dong Zheng: "Over the wall?"

Dong Zheng nodded and lay on Cui Zuojing's back. At this moment, a palace maid screamed from the direction of the miscellaneous room: "Where is the person?!"

Cui Zuojing let out a soft hey, he stood up, ran up before the gate guards rushed into the other courtyard, rushed to the base of the wall, and jumped suddenly——

It stands to reason that with Cui Zuojing's jumping ability, he jumped directly to a position close to two meters, and then kicked on the wall to use his strength to take off again. It was not a problem at all to hold the top of the wall with his hands, but the moment he took off, the boy felt something was wrong. , He reached out to support the wall to adjust his posture, but his arm couldn't touch the wall at all.

The next moment, the two fell to the ground together, and Gululu rolled twice.

"hiss--"

Cui Zuojing got up grinning, and saw the maids and guards running over. Dong Zheng was carried on his back, and when he fell, he almost fell to the bottom. Seeing Cui Zuojing, his pupils shrank sharply, and quickly Crawled up, grabbed the hand of the boy who was about to try to escape again, hugged him in his arms, and protected him with his own body——

A stick with the sound of the wind hit Dong Zheng's shoulder hard.

He snorted, and protected Cui Zuojing's head even harder.

"Don't beat it! If you break it, you can't explain it to the Master." Before the next stick fell, the palace maid stopped, she was afraid that if the stick fell, the person who was finally found would be gone.

The guards roughly pulled Dong Zheng and Cui Zuojing away, and under the command of the maid, dragged them all the way to the nearest room, and threw them on the ground casually like throwing garbage.

"Get ready for the water, I'll watch here." The elder maid was obviously in charge here, and the others left the room and closed the door behind them.

Cui Zuojing grinned and got up from the ground. He looked down at himself and found in despair that he, like Dong Zheng, had also become a child!

He reached down and touched.

……provoke.

Sure enough, the box would not let him, as a prisoner, intervene in the pilgrim's plot on a large scale, but Cui Zuojing didn't expect the retribution to come so soon.

Nemesis! ! !

Facing the despairing eyes of the young man, Dong Zheng propped himself up and moved to his side, and pressed Cui Zuojing's thin hand with his scarred hand.

[Don't panic, find an opportunity, we knock her out. 】

The girl in front of her blinked, and Cui Zuojing's voice rang in Dong Zheng's mind:

【Am I cute? 】

Dong Zheng: ………………………

Through Arabidopsis, Dong Zheng's thoughts can only be transmitted to Cui Zuojing in one direction, but if the transmission line is constructed with the DH encryption protocol that was obtained not long ago, two-way communication can be achieved.

【You have always been cute. 】

The court lady was obviously very curious about the sudden appearance of Cui Zuojing. Originally, they only captured Dong Zheng, a child. Where did this come from?

"Which palace did you escape from?" She stood a few steps away in disgust, as if she got closer, and the stains on the two children would get on her.

"I... I don't know." Cui Zuojing patted the sand on his palm when he fell off the wall, and showed a worried, pitiful and helpless look at the maid, "A lot of people are chasing me, I really can't help it , I just hid here, sister... Can my sister tell me where this is?"

"Where?" There was a strange smile on the maid's face, "Here is the foot of the emperor, where can you hide? Don't think about running away, be obedient, I will wash you in a while, and send it to the country. Master, you will be able to enjoy the blessing."

Now that we are treated like this, who will believe that we can enjoy blessings with the national teacher.

Maybe that national teacher is a pervert who collects little girls everywhere!

Cui Zuojing's upper body, the Oscar winner, looked like he was about to cry. Dong Zheng cast his eyes behind the maid, suddenly showing a frightened expression, pointed at the door, and said in a trembling voice: "Then... what is that?!"

The palace maid was startled by him and immediately turned her head, her eyes quickly wandered to look for possible abnormalities, Dong Zheng suddenly got up and grabbed the vase on the shelf beside her, and slammed it at her head——

boom!

The current Dong Zheng is quite a bit shorter than the maid, but luckily the vase is quite big, so he smashed the maid so suddenly that she couldn't even hum, and fainted on the ground.

Dong Zheng put down the vase panting, his physical condition was really bad, not to mention he was hit by a stick, Cui Zuojing quickly got up and helped him, so Dong Zheng didn't sway and fall down.

"Let's go first." The feeling of powerlessness brought about by the too young body was too strong, Cui Zuojing opened a few unlocked drawers and rummaged through the boxes, and took some soft things from the jewelry box to hide on his body.The small bronze mirror in the drawer reflected the girl's baby-fat face, her big eyes flashed, probably because he didn't suffer from Dong Zheng, he looked clean.

Yo, it's really cute.

As expected of me.
