Xia Daohua followed the sound and soon discovered that the sound came from underground.
With the help of an infrared thermal imager and the guidance of Gu Mingzhen, plus the most crucial point - the devilish laughter was so loud that it was impossible for her to get lost - she quickly found the location, and with the help of the space supermarket, she found the right place smoothly and sneaked over.
In the secret room underground, there were a few weak little candles lit, but the candles were placed low on the ground, and could only illuminate a few small areas. The surrounding area was a large area of darkness that seemed to be suffocating.
Two people were standing face to face, with a person crawling at their feet.
The faces of the two people standing were hidden in the darkness and their appearances could not be seen clearly.
Both of them were wearing clothes of the same style and color.
But one person's clothes were brand new, neat, and clean, while the other person's clothes were wrinkled, and his hands and feet seemed to be bound with chains...
Xia Daohua quietly moved closer. She hid in the space. Even though she knew that people outside could not notice her, she still felt an irrepressible sense of nervousness.
The man crawling on the ground uttered a faint groan and muttered a string of broken, almost incoherent sentences:
"It is not a pity for this old slave to die. Master, please be patient... For the sake of our ancestors..."
That was the voice of Eunuch Wei.
If Xia Daohua's five senses were not far more acute than those of ordinary people, she would not have been able to hear what he said at all.
Seeing Eunuch Wei crawling on the ground, barely breathing, his entire body reduced to a bag of bones, Xia Daohua suddenly felt a pang of heartache.
Although Eunuch Wei's status is despised, he is an old man in his twilight years after all.
At his age, it is really too much for him to suffer such torture.
The man with chains on his body was also very thin. He squatted down with difficulty, reached out his hand tremblingly to touch Eunuch Wei's face, and put his ear close to Eunuch Wei's face, trying to hear clearly what he said.
Before Eunuch Wei could finish his words, he had already passed out, so naturally he couldn't hear anything. The man raised his head and roared angrily, "Are you satisfied now? Have you had enough of this?"
The devilish laughter just now subsided, but the tone was very annoying:
"What? Seeing your loyal old dog dying, do you feel heartbroken? I cheated on you so many times, and you weren't angry at all. Now that your lackey is kneeling down to beg me, you're furious?"
"Have you had enough? You still have the nerve to ask me if I've had enough? I'm telling you! No! I never will!"
This was the voice of the man with the devilish laughter. He seemed to be getting angrier and angrier as he spoke. Not only did his voice become higher and higher, but his tone also became inexplicably sad and angry.
The man's hideous face suddenly appeared from the darkness. Illuminated by the candlelight, it looked even more distorted, which scared Xia Daohua, who was concentrating on listening at the foot of the wall.
"It's fine if you hate me, but if you like that seat, take it! But look at what good things you've done. Are you being worthy of the ancestors of the Gu family?"
This is the voice of the man in chains.
Xia Daohua suddenly felt that these two people seemed familiar.
She observed them carefully for a while and found that their faces were almost identical. She said almost because the man in chains was thinner than the man with the demonic voice, so their faces didn't fit perfectly.
But their facial features are so similar that if they stand together, people would believe they are twins!
twin?
twin!
A light bulb went off in Xia Daohua's mind, and many of the questions that had puzzled her before now had answers.
