"It's your turn, come in quickly!" the young eunuch urged.
Chu Qi walked in with soft legs, and at the same time said loudly with consciousness: [Buy!!!]
009: [Okay, the gold finger has arrived]
[Host's points deducted 133, remaining 510 points]
Chu Qi took off her pants and lay on the wooden bed, watching in horror as the eunuch holding a sharp knife walked towards her and groped her legs for a while, as if looking for a place to cut.
She collapsed: [Why is the gold finger useless?]
009 is very calm: [Don’t be afraid, it works]
As soon as he finished speaking, the eunuch holding the knife raised his hand and cut off a handful of air from Chu Qi's body. Then, smiling, he pinched a handful of air and put it into a small black jar. He put the name of the original owner on the seal of the jar and said:
"Next one!"
Chu Qi was sweating all over. She quickly put on her pants and imitated the reactions of the two men around her, walking to the side with a hunched back.
After the thrilling process of cracking the eggs, Chu Qi followed the eunuch who led the way to where ordinary eunuchs lived - Silijian.
The ranks of the eunuchs in Yanguo were chief eunuch, chief eunuch, deputy eunuch, guarding eunuch, eunuch supervisor, general eunuch, and junior eunuch in the lower cleaning department.
When Chu Qi first arrived, he was the lowest-ranking eunuch, responsible for the dirtiest and most tiring work such as sweeping the floor or handling the toilet.
Although the hierarchy is strict and the justice is strict, the eunuchs are not completely unkind to each other.
For example, a young eunuch who had just been castrated could rest and recuperate in the Silijian for three days. Only after his body had recovered a little would he be assigned tasks like other eunuchs.
In the living quarters of the Silijian, the lower-level eunuchs were divided into rooms with ten people in each room. It was the most crowded large room with no beds, only mats on the floor. Once inside the room, everyone had to sleep together, huddled together with difficulty.
Chu Qi and the other eunuchs who were beaten entered the big bed room. The other nine were lying on the floor with painful expressions on their faces, their eyes closed, groaning in pain.
Chu Qi didn't dare to be different, so she just hummed along with everyone else.
I don't know how much time passed, but a eunuch in charge came over, accompanied by two young eunuchs who were bowing their heads in submission, each holding two food boxes in their hands.
The eunuch in charge did not enter the room, but stayed at the door, covering his mouth and nose, frowning, and was very unhappy with the bloody smell in the room:
"Give them some of the painkillers and dinner that the Imperial Hospital distributed."
He spoke in a shrill voice and raised his head to give instructions to the young eunuch.
The young eunuch responded and took out the contents of the food box:
The painkillers were placed in small plates, and the evening meal consisted of simple whole grain steamed buns, each as big as an adult man's fist, and ten portions of pickles.
The young eunuch distributed the food to the ten people in the room, then retreated to the door and waited for instructions.
The eunuch in charge said, "For God's sake, please fetch some well water for them to deliver the medicine."
The two young eunuchs went to fetch water, and many of the new eunuchs who were given the job cast grateful looks at the eunuch in charge.
The eunuch in charge frowned and glanced around, feeling slightly satisfied. Winning people's hearts is a common tactic used in the palace, and the eunuch in charge is well aware of this, so he doesn't mind using his words to win people's hearts.
Chu Qi mingled with them, pretending to swallow the painkiller pills, but actually holding them firmly in her hand. She ate the whole grain steamed buns and pickles very quickly.
It had been who knows how long since the original owner had a full meal before he came. Not only was he extremely skinny and pale from hunger, but his empty stomach was making the same rumbling sound as the sound of a cannon.
After winning a wave of gratitude, the eunuch in charge left.
After dinner, the new eunuch next to him was still lying half-dead on the ground.
Chu Qi also lay down and before she knew it, it was the next day.
Chu Qi was in a daze and felt something beside her. She reached out and touched it, and when she felt the touch of flesh, she remembered that she was sleeping on a bunk bed with someone else.
only--
Why does it feel so hard?
She opened her eyes, and through the dim light, her excellent eyesight could clearly see that the eunuch's face was pale, his lips were slightly open without a trace of blood, and his eyes were staring at the beams above as if he was dead.
Chu Qi used trembling fingers to feel his breath.
Dead.
She didn't know how long she lay with the dead man.
Chu Qi: “…”
She was silent for a moment and slowly turned around.
She was just a low-ranking eunuch with no human rights. It was not her business to deal with matters like the death of someone. It would be better for her not to make it public and cause trouble.
I believe someone will come to collect the body.
Sure enough, when the day dawned, the eunuch in charge from yesterday came with two young eunuchs to deliver food.
The first thing he did was not to ask people to distribute food, but to stand silently at the door. Two young eunuchs put down the food boxes, walked in and rummaged through the motionless new eunuchs under the confused gazes of the other new eunuchs.
When he saw the three stiff bodies, the young eunuch said, "Eunuch Wen, three are dead."
"ah??"
“Dead?”
“…”
The new eunuch, who was still dazed at the moment, was unable to rest due to the pain, and was therefore in an uproar.
Those who were close to the dead body were so frightened that they struggled, rolled to the side, and stuck close to others, trying to stay away from the dead body.
The eunuch in charge, Eunuch Wen, sneered, "Isn't it normal for someone to die? Why are you making such a fuss? If you keep making a fuss, you won't get your morning meal today."
As soon as these words were spoken, the frightened and noisy new eunuchs immediately quieted down.
The two young eunuchs worked together to pull the three dead new eunuchs out of the door, and calmly distributed food to the remaining eunuchs.
Morning food is different from evening food. Morning food is a bowl of porridge with pickles.
The three dead people naturally had nothing to eat, so the extra porridge was given by Eunuch Wen to the two young eunuchs, who thanked him loudly.
