The iron locks collided with the iron bars of the dungeon, making a crackling sound that was extremely harsh, and the eerie atmosphere became increasingly thicker.
Xiao Ruyu shrank his neck and said nothing more.
Thinking that he had frightened her, the man dropped his food and turned to instruct the other man, "Lock the door and don't let her run out. Otherwise, if the young master blames us, we will all be in trouble."
The other person nodded dumbly and watched the man walk up.
Just when Xiao Ruyu was wondering why this person didn't leave, he heard the person speak.
"Eat something quickly, or you'll pass out from hunger."
etc……
Why does this voice sound so familiar?
The man looked around and quietly took off a corner of his mask.
【Master! 】
Xiao Ruyu rushed forward excitedly, grabbing the iron railing, her eyes slightly red.
【Why are you dressed like this? 】
【What about eleven? ! 】
She held the iron railing tightly until her hands were sore, but she was worried about where Eleven was.
"Don't worry, little princess. Eleven is fine."
Doctor Yang lowered his voice and gave her a reassurance.
Hearing that Eleven was fine, Xiao Ruyu's tense nerves finally relaxed and he slowly slid to the ground.
"Master rescued Eleven and disguised himself to infiltrate their organization." Doctor Yang described the situation in a low voice, looking around, fearing that someone would suddenly break in.
"Little princess, eat your meal first. You must have not eaten for a whole day and night."
A look of heartache appeared on his face as he thought about how to rescue her.
"The key is not in Master's hand right now. Wait for Master to find the key to the dungeon."
Xiao Ruyu believed him and nodded heavily.
Her stomach growled at this moment, and she looked down at the food that was brought to her, her face full of despair.
[This Lu Zongyuan is really abominable, deliberately sending me fruits that I can't bite. ]
Looking at the crude food and fruits, she pouted.
"Just fill your stomach for now. Master hasn't penetrated their ranks yet, so there's no way for me to bring some tasty food to the little princess."
Doctor Yang looked embarrassed and struggled to look at the fruits. He picked up one, wiped it with his sleeve, and handed it to Xiao Ruyu.
Xiao Ruyu didn't want to eat it at first, but her stomach was empty and she felt weak all over, so she had to take it.
After taking a few bites, Xiao Ruyu's face suddenly changed.
"Pooh."
A mouthful of blood came out of her mouth. Doctor Yang's face changed drastically and he stepped forward and knocked the fruit to the ground.
"The food is poisonous?!"
A look of despair appeared on his face, and he grabbed Xiao Ruyu and tried to dig out the food she had just eaten.
【Master, wait a minute, it's not poisonous. 】
Xiao Ruyu wanted to cry but had no tears, and uttered something again.
When I looked down, I saw it was a small baby tooth.
"My teeth..."
"It was knocked off..."
She saw that the tooth that had just grown out was knocked down, and she squatted down with heartache and carefully picked up the tooth.
Xiao Ruyu finally couldn't help the grievances accumulated over the past few days. Her throat felt sore and tears rolled down her cheeks like broken strings.
[My teeth… wuwuwu…the teeth that I finally grew…]
[I haven’t eaten anything good yet… How come it’s gone bad… wuwuwuwu…]
She broke down and cried, sobbing breathlessly and almost fainted.
Doctor Yang felt sorry for her when he saw her like this. Just when he was about to extend his sleeve to wipe her tears, a loud shout suddenly came from the dungeon door.
"Why are you crying? It's so noisy!"
Xiao Ruyu's crying stopped abruptly, with tears still in her eyes, she glared at the person who came angrily.
Seeing that it was Lu Zongyuan, Doctor Yang quickly pulled up his mask, lowered his head and hid aside.
Lu Zongyuan didn't notice him, but walked straight towards Xiao Ruyu.
"You, are you feeding me these rotten fruits on purpose?"
Xiao Ruyu was so angry that she grabbed the fruit on the ground and threw it at Lu Zongyuan.
He dodged it easily but was angered by the action.
Lu Zongyuan took two steps forward, grabbed Xiao Ruyu's neck, and his eyes were as vicious as a poisonous snake.
Doctor Yang almost rushed over, but he restrained himself, and his fists under his sleeves made a "clacking" sound.
No, it can't be exposed so soon.
Xiao Ruyu was being strangled by him, like a weak chick. She showed no weakness and lowered her head to bite him hard.
"ah--"
Lu Zongyuan let go in pain, blood was already oozing from the place where she bit him.
He looked at the tooth mark and saw that there was still a piece missing.
"Damn it! You think I dare not kill you?"
He was completely enraged, his eyes were burning with fire, "Our family declined, my father was forced to retire, and I was exiled to the frontier."
"It's all because of you, this evil star! Do you think I will let you go so easily?!"
Lu Zongyuan stood up, his fierce eyes flashing with murderous intent.
"If my father hadn't asked me to spare your life, you would have been chopped into pieces by now!"
Xiao Ruyu said nothing, just stared at him, not afraid at all.
"Your family sold official positions and titles, and were corrupt and perverted the law. How many people did Concubine Li harm in the harem?"
"How have you been wronged in every way?!"
When mentioning the deceased Concubine Li, Lu Zongyuan was hit on the sore spot and couldn't stand it any more. "At such a young age, you are so sharp-tongued."
"Okay, let's see whether you are stubborn or my heart-eating insect is more powerful."
After saying that, he took out a finger-sized poisonous insect from his arms, pinched Xiao Ruyu's mouth and fed it to her.
Lu Zongyuan's eyes were cold and he showed a sinister smile.
"This poison will torture your mind every day, especially at night..."
"Just enjoy the feeling of having your heart scratched by a hundred claws and your bones eaten by a thousand ants!"
He laughed loudly towards the sky and stared closely at Xiao Ruyu's reaction.
Doctor Yang couldn't bear it any longer and turned his wrist to rescue Xiao Ruyu.
Xiao Ruyu quickly noticed what Doctor Yang did and winked at him.
【Master, don't be impulsive! 】
[Don't worry, I have my own way to deal with it. ]
[You go first, leave me alone! ]
Looking at her pale little face, Doctor Yang felt heartbroken, but now was not a good time to expose herself, so he could only bear the pain and leave step by step.
After Doctor Yang left, Xiao Ruyu half-knelt on the ground, covering his chest and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
She rolled back and forth on the ground in pain, sweat pouring down her forehead from the pain.
Lu Zongyuan was very satisfied with her appearance. He turned around and left without forgetting to say something.
"Enjoy yourself."
"When my father comes back, I will ask him to put an end to you personally!"
Xiao Ruyu watched his figure disappear at the dungeon door, and with the sound of the door being locked with a "clang", she made sure that he had really left.
She breathed a sigh of relief and rolled over to her feet.
After brushing off the dust on his body, Xiao Ruyu sneered disdainfully.
"With just these little tricks, you still want to kill me."
Fortunately, she happened to learn this witchcraft when she was secretly studying in the Miao village.
Heart-eating poison, thousands of ants eating your heart, can be cured by Heart-eating grass!
