The four of them were dumbfounded and took a deep breath in unison.
Ling Qing blinked, and after confirming that he was not mistaken, he looked at Shen Ningyuan, "Miss Shen, your worry just now was unnecessary. Your father seems to be living quite well during his imprisonment here."
For a moment, Shen Ningyuan didn't know what to say.
I just walked along the way, with tears welling up in my eyes because of fear.
After seeing the environment where his mother was imprisoned, he immediately took it back.
It can be said that as terrifying as the dungeon we just saw was, this place is just as comfortable.
Although it was also a dungeon, Cui Jin's place not only had a soft and fragrant bed, but also a dedicated toilet, and even a small stove in the corner...
It can be said that it has everything.
This is not a place to detain people, it is clearly a holy place for retirement.
At this time, Cui Jin was sleeping in bed, and one could even hear his even snoring.
This shows how good Cui Jin's life is here.
Hearing the noise outside the door, Cui Jin asked vaguely without even opening his eyes, "What delicious food did you bring today?"
Shen Ningyuan: "..."
Um.
Ling Qing is right.
Her and her brother's worries were indeed unnecessary.
Mother is here, and life is so good.
Seeing no response, Cui Jin thought she had misheard, turned over and prepared to continue sleeping.
Everyone: “…”
Seeing that Cui Jin was about to continue snoring, Shen Haobai finally shouted, "Mom, don't sleep, we are here to save you...save you."
Cui Jin was startled and immediately sat up from the bed, staring towards the door with wide eyes.
After seeing that it was Shen Ningyuan's three siblings, Cui Jin burst into tears, "Wow, you finally came to save me!"
She ran towards the three of them while crying and hugged Shen Ningyuan tightly.
"Yuan'er, I'm glad to finally see you. You don't know how hard my life has been during this period. I've lost several pounds!"
Shen Ningyuan looked at the baby fat on Cui Jin's chin and once again didn't know what to say.
However, seeing Cui Jin's crying getting louder and louder, Shen Ningyuan had no choice but to comfort her: "Mom, don't cry, we'll lure those people over here later, and none of us will be able to escape!"
Cui Jin finally stopped crying, "Oh, you're right, I won't cry anymore."
"belch……"
While stopping crying, Cui Jin also took a break from crying.
Shen Ningyuan pulled Cui Jin inside, looked around, and asked curiously, "Mom, why is the dungeon where you are imprisoned different from the dungeon outside?"
"What's the difference?" Cui Jin asked subconsciously.
"Exactly. The dungeon where the others were imprisoned was filled with straw and dead rats, but the place where Mother was imprisoned was very..."
"Oh, you are talking about the environment. It's all bought with money." Cui Jin said directly.
"Bought it with money?"
As soon as the words fell, the four of them were shocked again and looked at Cui Jin in surprise.
Cui Jin nodded and pointed as she spoke, "For example, this bed cost one thousand taels, this stove cost them five hundred taels to build overnight, and this toilet was even worse, costing me three hundred taels. But there's nothing I can do about it, people have urgent needs..."
"And this..."
After Cui Jin finished speaking, the four of them were dumbfounded again.
It turned out that he was locked up in a dungeon and tortured until his body was covered with bruises.
Cui Jinguan lives a fulfilling life in the dungeon thanks to his absolute hard power.
Damn discrepancy...
Seeing that Cui Jin wanted to continue counting, Ling Qing immediately urged: "Madam Shen, if you have anything to say, let's go out and talk first."
Ling Qing looked outside the dungeon. "The person on duty is not here for now, but they will send someone over soon. There are only four of us. If we are outnumbered, we will be finished."
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan quickly pulled Cui Jin away.
Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue followed closely behind, looking around vigilantly.
As Ling Qing said, this dungeon was indeed unguarded.
Perhaps the owner of the dungeon thought this place was very secluded, so he didn't send anyone to guard it.
Passing by the place where Xing Ming was imprisoned, Shen Haobai stopped and looked at the scarred Xing Ming hesitantly.
"General Shen, don't waste your time. Even if you rescue me, he will still catch me back."
"Master Xing, who exactly is he that you are talking about? Can he really attack you at the foot of Kyoto?" Shen Haobai asked with gritted teeth.
Xing Ming shook his head. "It's useless. Even if I escape and hide and survive on my own, he will attack my family." Xing Ming smiled bitterly. "So, I might as well be locked up here. At least... at least I can protect my family."
Seeing Xing Ming like this, Shen Haobai felt very uncomfortable.
The two were quite familiar with each other. When Xing Ming disappeared before, he took people to look for him for a long time.
But he never expected that he would be locked up here.
Thinking of this, Shen Haobai gritted his teeth and asked in a cold voice: "Who is that person?"
Xing Ming still shook his head, "Don't ask, I won't tell you."
"Master Xing, you..."
"General Shen, let's go quickly, it will be too late if we don't leave now!" Xing Ming urged in a low voice.
Seeing this, Shen Haobai had no choice but to give up.
"Master Xing, hold on, I will definitely come to rescue you."
"Well, go quickly." Xing Ming nodded weakly.
Shen Haobai glanced at Xing Ming again, and finally stopped hesitating and turned around and walked out of the dungeon.
Seeing Shen Haobai approaching, Shen Ningyuan suddenly asked, "Brother, who was the follower of that Lord Xing in the court just now?"
"Huh?" Shen Haobai was stunned. "Sister, why are you asking this?"
"It's okay, I'm just asking out of curiosity."
"Master Xing never participates in factional disputes." Shen Haobai said truthfully: "Perhaps it is because of this that he was retaliated against and imprisoned here?"
Shen Ningyuan frowned, "Brother, do you want to save Lord Xing?"
"Of course we have to rescue them." Shen Haobai nodded, "But with only a few of us, rescuing so many people will only alert the enemy. It's better to wait until the right time to rescue them."
As he spoke, Shen Haobai looked at Cui Jin and said, "The most urgent thing now is to bring mother home safely."
Unexpectedly, Shen Ningyuan shook her head and refused, “Mom can’t go home now.”
Shen Haobai was stunned, "Why?"
Before Shen Ningyuan could speak, Shen Haoyue reminded him, "Brother, don't forget that you still have a mother at home."
"I actually forgot about this." Shen Haobai suddenly realized, "Sister, what do you think we should do?"
Shen Ningyuan frowned and analyzed seriously: "If we take mother back now, I'm afraid it will alert the enemy. We have to find the right time and find a way to send mother back. As for the two fakes at home, we still have to make long-term plans..."
"Bang—"
Just as Shen Ningyuan was thinking, the sound of a shaking chain instantly interrupted her thoughts.
