"Oh right, do you guys have paper clips? " Chuxia suddenly thought of something.
"PAPER CLIPS? Yes, we have them in the leader's study, " Bell replied.
"then go and get me a box of them. I want paper clips, " Chuxia instructed bell.
"okay, I'll go now. The leader isn't here, " Bell said.
Chuxia watched bell leave and her lips curled into a smile. How could she be stumped without a needle?
Hehe, even without a needle, she could still subdue those puppets!
It didn't take long before bell brought the thing over. "Miss Manman, the paper clip you asked for. "
Chuxia took the paper clip and looked at it. With a bend of her fingers, she straightened the paper clip. She curved a round head at one end and a needle-like metal rod at the other end.
Although there was still a difference between this thing and a silver needle, it was only slightly thicker.
Her eyes narrowed. Now, she was only missing the last question. The silver needle had a point and could Pierce Baihui acupoint, but the paper clip didn't.
"Bell, is there a whetstone here? " She asked.
"Yes, they need a whetstone to sharpen their bayonets, " Bell said.
The corners of Chu Xia's lips curved. When God closed a door for you, he would open a window for you.
Although she did not have needles, she had paper clips and whetstones.
"Bell, go get me a few whetstones, " she ordered.
Bell did not understand what Chu Xia wanted to do, so she obediently went to find a whetstone.
Chu Xia poured the water from the teacup on the whetstone and rubbed one end of the paper clip against the whetstone.
She decisively sharpened it into a small point.
"Bell, LET'S GO! " She grabbed the box of paper clips and led bell out of the room, heading straight for the room where the maids were locked up.
The room where the maids were locked up was definitely not a good place. It was a storage room. There were no beds or furniture in it, just an empty room.
The few women saw chuxia coming and were so scared that they hid back. They were afraid that Chuxia was here to kill them!
"Why are you hiding? Are you so afraid of me? Am I RAKSHA? " She asked.
The few of them were so frightened that they did not dare to speak. They all huddled together.
A slightly more daring maid knelt on the ground and kowtowed. "Miss Man man, we really know that we were wrong. Please forgive us! You will be rewarded for your kindness! You will definitely become a queen! "
Chuxia sneered. "When you harmed me, why didn't you think of letting me live! "
"We know that we were wrong! Miss Man man, if we dare to harm you again, you will kill us! "
"Yes! You will kill us! "
"We are going to starve to death! Miss Man man, if you let us go this time, we will listen to you in the future. YOU WILL BE OUR MASTER! "
The maids kowtowed and said.
When chuxia heard the last sentence, she finally heard what she wanted to hear. "Well, you are quite smart, but how do I know if you will be obedient?
"How about this, I will do a test first. There is a box of paper clips here. You use a whetstone to sharpen the paper clips into a sharp point "Just like the one in my hand. When it looks like a needle, it must have a sharp point like a needle!
If you can do this job well,. I'll let you go and let you return to your original work."
"WE'RE WILLING! I'll go first! " A maid heard that she could survive and immediately crawled over, wanting to take the paper clip.
Chu Xia kicked away that woman's arm "Don't snatch it. Let Bell divide the paper clips for you. Each of you will get the same number of paper clips. You can take it and grind it yourself. Once it's done, bell will put it into a bag according to your names and show it to me. I'll let you go if I'm satisfied. "
She stated the conditions. She could not let them grind it as they pleased. The number of paper clips was limited, and she could not waste it.
If she let them grind their own paper clips, she could guarantee that they would not dare to not grind it well!
"Okay! WE ARE WILLING! "
"We promise to grind it well! "
"It's just that we are too hungry. Can you give us some food? "
A few maids said in a rush.
"Bell, give them paper clips first. Record the number of paper clips, and then find them some food, " Chu Xia instructed.
She could not grind it by herself. One reason was that she did not have enough time. Another reason was that it was too obvious for her to grind it by herself, and Zhuo Nan would discover it.
Of course, Bell would not give these women anything good to eat. These women did not give her any good face after she came back. They even mocked her for no reason and were given to the soldiers.
Now that she had become Chuxia's personal servant, these women were under her. She had to put on her airs properly.
She found some bags for these women and threw them into the room.
The few women were starving to death. Naturally, they would not be picky about the dirty food and would fight over the bags to eat.
They had not eaten anything since they were locked up here.
Even though bell did not give them much, at least they would not starve to death.
After the few women finished their food, they began to grind paper clips in the room, according to the pattern of the silver needles.
After Chu Xia finished arranging the women's work, she returned to her room to rest.
She was destined to not be able to sleep. She had a feeling that the person who saved her was near her. She was about to be saved!
"..."
In the palace, the sky was bright. Today was the day Qin Sheng could get the Dan test results.
She went to Sikong Jue's room and asked for Sikong Jue's report.
Sikong Jue handed the report to Qin Sheng. "I've given you the report. It's time for me to talk to Chuxia, right? "
He proposed his conditions.
Qin Sheng was in a dilemma. The person on the phone with Sikong Jue was not Chuxia, but man man. She knew what man man was up to, but she could not tell Sikong jue that man man was man man!
"Okay, I'll talk to Chuxia and ask her to talk to you. But whether she wants to talk to you or not is up to her! "
"If you didn't stop us, she would talk to me every day! " Said Sikong Jue.
Qin Sheng pursed her lips into a straight line. "Wait here, I'll talk to Chuxia when I get back. "
She turned around and walked out of the room, returning to her own room.
No matter how unwilling she was, she could only call man man to let her talk to Sikong Jue.
Man Man picked up the phone. "My good cousin, why do you remember me so well? "
"I need you to talk to Sikong Jue again, " said Qin Sheng.
"Hehe, didn't you say that I can't talk to him? I don't want to talk to him now. What can you do to me? " Man Man said.
"I can't do anything to you. At most, I will cut Zhuo Nan into pieces! " Qin Sheng threatened.
Man Man's voice suddenly became sharp. "If you dare to touch Zhuo Nan, I will kill you! "
"Hehe, man man, you are so stupid. Zhuo Nan doesn't love you at all, but you have always loved Zhuo Nan! " Qin Sheng could not help but admire man man's stupidity!
"You're trying to sow discord between us! In your dreams! Zhuo Nan loves me, he's always loved me! " Man Man said.
"then talk to Sikong jue properly. Remember, don't show him that you love him or forgive him! " Qin Sheng instructed man man!
"Alright, I promise you! " Man Man's eyes flashed with coldness. How could she be obedient?
This was her only chance to escape!
