"Who are you? Why are you arresting me?" (Reading in the dark)
"Then do you know who I am?"
Dugu Zhi never expected that she would be captured by a group of men in black as soon as her family left.
She was both shocked and furious, and shouted loudly.
"I know! Aren't you a follower of the goddess?"
Dugu Zhi shouted loudly, but she didn't expect to get a response.
The man in the lead not only answered her questions but also knew a great deal about her "secret".
However, the man spoke with a clear hint of mockery in his tone.
Clearly, he did not believe that Dugu Zhizhen was a follower of a goddess.
Dugu Zhi, however, thought she had found a lifeline and hurriedly shouted, "Since you know who I am, you should know that offending me is blasphemy against the gods."
"You...you have such audacity, you don't even respect the goddess."
Man in black: ...
Is this person genuinely stupid or just pretending?
If we were truly wary of your status as a "goddess follower," why would we have taken action?
Since we've already taken action and managed to expose your "secret," it shows that we're not afraid of you at all!
Sigh, this woman can't even understand such a simple truth. No wonder the higher-ups, even though they know she has some "prophetic" abilities, haven't taken her seriously.
"Since she is a goddess, she should know many secrets!"
The man in black, too lazy to bother with a fool like Dugu Zhi, took her directly to a dungeon.
A real prison cell!
In addition to the water dungeon, there was also an interrogation room.
The walls of the interrogation room were covered with bloodstained torture instruments, a sight that was chilling to behold.
What are you going to do?
"Help! Someone help me!"
Upon seeing those instruments of torture, even Dugu Zhi, who considered herself a reborn woman with great fortune, was so terrified that she almost lost her soul.
Although she had more life experience than others, she was a pampered and privileged person in both her past and present lives.
I have never seen such a hellish scene before.
Let alone torture, Dugu Zhi has lived two lives and has never even broken her skin.
For her, the greatest pain was probably the defeat of the Sixth Prince and her being forced to commit suicide.
While suicide is painful, it can be considered "quick and painless," as it avoids the torment of living.
These instruments of torture before her would subject her to endless torment.
Just one glance, just one thought, and Dugu Zhi felt a chill run down her spine.
"Lady Dugu, since you know how terrible torture is, then stop being so stubborn!"
The man in black stood in front of Dugu Zhi and said coldly, "Tell me everything you know."
"For example, how did you know the location of the Turkic royal court?"
"For example, how did you know that an earthquake would occur in Liangzhou on the fourth day of the eighth lunar month?"
The man in black began to ask questions.
Dugu Zhi was initially terrified, her face turning pale and her heart pounding, but after hearing the questions posed by the man in black, she suddenly realized something.
"Did an earthquake really occur in Liangzhou?"
"Haha, I knew it! I didn't remember wrong!"
Dugu Zhi felt confident again. "You were sent by Helian Chen, weren't you? I knew it. He's Empress Xie's dog."
Hmph, it must be that Empress Xie learned of her existence from Helian Chen, felt threatened, and wanted to secretly kill her.
"Let me tell you, I am a believer in the goddess, and the goddess will appear in my dreams to give me guidance."
"What's a southwest earthquake? I also know the future direction of many dynasties."
"Oh, right, I also know about the 'fate' of saints!"
At this point, Dugu Zhi deliberately paused for a moment.
She raised her chin high, her demeanor both reserved and arrogant. "If you want to know more, you'll have to show some sincerity."
"Trying to extract a confession through torture? Hmph, I'd rather take the secret underground!"
Dugu Zhi may have overestimated her endurance or underestimated the interrogation skills of the men in black. Even at this point, she was still negotiating with them.
Man in black: ...This guy is really stupid!
They say that a wise person knows when to yield, but what kind of situation is this? Dugu Zhi still doesn't understand and is even trying to negotiate with them!
"Sincerity? Hmm, Lord Dugu is right, we should indeed show our sincerity!"
The man in black was too lazy to waste his breath on the fool.
He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the water prison.
The subordinates understood and, without saying a word, took Dugu Zhi to the water dungeon.
He opened the cell door and pushed Dugu Zhi inside.
"ah!"
Caught off guard, Dugu Zhi lost her footing under the force of the sudden thrust and stumbled into the water prison.
The water in the water dungeon wasn't very deep, about one meter deep.
When a woman of average height like Dugu Zhi stood inside, the height reached just to her waist and abdomen.
It definitely won't flood.
But Dugu Zhi still felt very uncomfortable. "So dirty! This water is so dirty and smelly!"
As a pampered daughter of a military family, Dugu Zhi lived two lives, both of which were refined and noble.
They were particular about the finest food and the most exquisite preparations, and they also had specific requirements for bathing and other aspects of life.
She felt disgusted just looking at such a dirty pool, but now she was being pushed into it.
Dugu Zhi felt itchy all over and even felt like vomiting.
Man in black: ...This is nothing.
"Let's do it!"
"yes!"
Before long, several men dressed in black came in, carrying buckets of water.
Upon arriving at the water dungeon, they emptied the contents of the bucket.
