Under the cabin, there is still a man, a woman, a corpse, and a gamble.
Xiao Yi is very silly. Except when he is on the battlefield, he usually gives people a careless feeling. He is so careless that he doesn't use his brain and feels like a child.
He didn't even know what the bet was, let alone what it had to do with explaining why Tao Qi married Fang Buer.
But he still took the gamble because Tao Qi said that if she lost, she would marry Xiao Yi.
Therefore, Xiao Yi nodded and agreed.
But he never thought that the eldest lady of the Tao family, who has been in charge of the Tao family until now, would lose to him.
Seeing Xiao Yi nodded, Tao Qi's face glowed with a red light, a look that seemed to be shy but also decisive.
This bet was, firstly, to bury Fang Buer, and secondly, to give Chu Qing an explanation. But for this bet, Tao Qi would reveal her most unbearable side in front of Xiao Yi.
"Then... let's bet."
After Tao Qi finished speaking, she closed her eyes tightly, then stretched out her beautiful arms and untied the top of the red skirt.
The fragrant shoulders were exposed, and Xiao Yi's eyes remained unblinking.
Happiness, does it come so quickly?
But then, the fair skin changed color.
The shoulders and back, which should have been smooth and fair, were left with two scars that were almost deep enough to show the bones. They were so shocking.
Next to the scar, there are uneven and irregular scars.
Only flames can cause such scars, and such scars cannot be healed in a lifetime.
There was more than one scar, covering almost Tao Qi's entire back, even her slender waist.
The shoulders, back, and waist were all scarred by such burns. Not even a piece of good skin as big as a palm could be found. It was extremely hideous and terrifying.
Only the back and waist were exposed, which explained everything.
In fact, this is the reason why Tao Qi is willing to marry Fang Buer, because no man other than Fang Buer will marry her.
The scars are too horrifying, not to mention touching, just looking at them is shocking.
When she was young, due to an accident, Tao Qi was left with scars on half of her body. The people who knew about this could be counted on one hand. This was also Tao Qi's biggest secret.
At that time, when Fang Buer was playing the routine of a hero saving a beauty, Tao Qi's dress was accidentally torn, and the scar on her back was exposed to Fang Buer's eyes.
But Fang Buer still blocked the knife for Tao Qi, which almost killed him.
Later, the Tao family did secretly investigate the cause and effect. The actual situation was that Fang Buer knew in advance that those assassins were going to assassinate Tao Qi. He later found those assassins and spent a lot of money. Instead of canceling the operation, he wanted to cooperate with him to put on a show. The hero saves the beauty.
But Fang Buer didn't expect it. He didn't expect two things. First, the assassin made money from both sides. He earned the employer's money by killing Tao Qi, and also earned Fang Buer's "down payment". Second, Tao Qi was very capable. beat!
Six merchants and more than a dozen assassins went there, half of them attacked Tao Qi, and the other half ran out to create chaos in Tao's house while blocking the Tao family who ran to the main hall to rescue.
At that time, Tao Qi didn't have any weapons, and one of the assassins was very skilled. Seeing that Tao Qi was about to die, Fang Buer risked his own life to block Tao Qi's knife.
After Tao Qi found out everything, he did not fall out with Fang Buer and pretended to find nothing.
First of all, during the period when Fang Buer was recovering from his injuries, his sweet words and sincere words really moved Tao Qi. Even though he knew about the assassination in advance, he almost died defending Tao Qi.
What touched Tao Qi the most was that Fang Buer said that he didn't care about Tao Qi's scars, not at all.
In fact, this is easy to understand. Regardless of whether it is the head of the family or the eldest lady, in ancient times, there was no such thing as a trial marriage first. After getting married and entering the bridal chamber, one saw that the scars on the wife’s back were still the kind of scars caused by flames, and she was scared to touch them. , who can accept it.
So in ancient times, it was basically difficult for Tao Qi to get married. To put it bluntly, if he did get married, it would be a fraud. Those who are less timid will tremble just by looking at the scars on his back. .
Rather than saying that Tao Qi is willing to marry Fang Buer, it is better to say that it is a helpless choice.
If she doesn't get married, Tao Weiran won't be in charge of the Tao family, and no one will be able to walk around the world with his bare back. Let's see who isn't afraid.
Another one is that Fang Buer's mouth is really powerful, and his continuous sweet words moved Tao Qi, who was emotionally blank.
Tao Qi turned her back to Xiao Yi and showed Xiao Yi the side she thought was most unsightly.
Not only for a bet, but also to give Chu Qing an explanation as to why he married Fang Buer.
If she didn't give this explanation, she was afraid that Chu Qing would misunderstand her and that she was related to what Fang Buer had planned. The Tao family would be suspected by Chu Qing.
Tao Qi held back her tears. She was also a woman. Even though her back was full of scars, being naked to other men still made her feel humiliated.
But there was no sound of cursing as expected, and no sound of footsteps leaving. After a long while, there was no sound at all.
Involuntarily, Tao Qi turned her head, but the next second, she was stunned. The dress she was still holding in her hand slipped to the ground quietly.
Xiao Yi was taking off his clothes. His armor had been untied and his inner clothes had also been untied.
"Who are you showing off to?" Xiao Yi, who was shirtless, looked proud and pointed at his body, which was called a slut.
"Here, have you seen the knife wounds? Liang Thief's cuts were all to the bone..."
"Did you see this? This is an arrow wound. The arrow was stuck in the stomach. I cut it off with a knife and continued fighting without even frowning..."
"This is a fall injury. The horse lost its hoof in the battle formation. When it rolled down, I don't know where it hit the arm. It was bleeding profusely..."
"And this..."
"Look at this..."
"this…"
Xiao Yi is also covered in scars, which is an honor that belongs to the frontier army.
There are more than ten places, no less than ten places, big and small scars, big and small honors, every scar is a story, a legend.
Xiao Yi's face was full of pride, and then he said sarcastically: "I am not bragging about my scars with you, let alone you. No one in the border army can compare with me, what do you have to show off?"
Tao Qi's eyes were wide open, not looking at the scars on Xiao Yi's body, but at Xiao Yi's resolute and contented face, as if he was trying to distinguish something.
"you…"
"If you show off to ordinary people, that's fine. Show off to me, haha." Xiao Yi patted his strong chest: "You have found the wrong person."
Tao Qi's expression looked a little silly, as if she was wondering whether Xiao Yi also had a scar on his brain, and it had to be a big one.
"You... aren't you afraid?"
Xiao Yi was confused: "What are you afraid of?"
"What's on me..."
Xiao Yi said impatiently: "Oh, there is so much nonsense, what exactly are you betting on? Tell me quickly, but don't regret it. If you lose, you will marry me."
"I…"
Tao Qi couldn't say a word. She was sure that Xiao Yi was not joking. He really thought that he... was showing off, showing off his scars to him, but he was clearly showing his worst side. Xiao Yi Yi... actually thought he was showing off?
