Chapter 45: Orcs discovered in the dark prison!
Jiang Nanyuan and Lin Zhixue returned to the inn. She first sent Lin Zhixue to her room. She did not forget her previous promise to help Xiaohong find her family.
Now Liu Shuang is trapped in the fire and no one knows whether she is dead or not. It is impossible to find out the answer by asking her.
I can only ask the maidservants close to her to see if I can find out her whereabouts.
After she sent Lin Zhixue back, she sneaked into the Marquis' Mansion and came to Liu Shuang's yard as she was familiar with the place.
Seeing that the courtyard was quiet and there was not even a maid, she suddenly thought that Jiang Nanfeng might have locked them all up.
After all, the nanny and Liu Shuang's confidants must know a lot of things. Maybe Jiang Nanfeng kept them here to trick them into revealing something.
No one knew where they were imprisoned. Jiang Nanyuan searched all the firewood rooms in the marquis' mansion but didn't see them.
Afterwards, she sneaked into Jiang Nanfeng's bedroom. She checked his bedroom carefully and suddenly found that there was a mechanism in his bedroom.
She moved the mechanism, and the stone wall behind her suddenly trembled and slowly moved to both sides.
There was a stone door on the inner wall of the stone wall, and there was a mechanism next to the stone door. This was the mechanism to open the door. She walked forward and studied it for a while, and opened the door easily.
As soon as the stone door was opened, a damp and rotten smell hit Jiang Nanyuan in the face, almost making him vomit.
She quickly held her breath and walked into the stone gate. The moment she entered, the stone gate behind her closed.
At this moment, several bamboo arrows were shot from all directions at the same time. Jiang Nanyuan reacted quickly and dodged the attacks of those bamboo arrows.
All the bamboo arrows missed the target and did not hurt Jiang Nanyuan. After thinking carefully, it seemed that he did not touch any mechanism when he came here just now?
Why are these bamboo arrows shooting towards me?
After thinking for a long time, she finally found the reason. It turned out that she accidentally stepped on a mechanism on the ground when she came in just now.
This place is so secretive and full of traps. What is going on in here?
There is a staircase leading down inside the stone gate.
Jiang Nanyuan thought as she walked down the stairs carefully.
The further you go inside, the worse the smell becomes, and the stench becomes more pronounced.
Fortunately, Jiang Nanyuan had held her breath, otherwise she might not have been able to bear it.
Continuing to walk down, the space inside gradually became wider and the stairs reached the bottom.
She finally knew the source of the stench.
It turned out that there were a lot of smelly rats piled up underneath, and the corpses of these rats were rotting. The stench in the air was emitted by these rats.
She stopped and didn't go any further in. She was hesitating whether to go any further in.
It's just because there are so many rats on the ground, it's a bit disgusting, and many of them have already rotted, and there are still many bones.
Looking carefully at the pile of bones on the ground, she found that there were not only rat bones, but even human bones.
I don’t know who Jiang Nanfeng locked up here. It’s so miserable that even the body has turned into bones.
She was about to return the same way, but just at this moment, she heard the sound of chains coming from inside.
It sounded like someone's feet were chained and dragging as they walked.
This aroused her curiosity again. Was there someone inside? She wanted to go in and see what was going on.
Carefully avoiding the rotten rats on the ground, he slowly walked inside.
After walking a few steps, she finally saw the person inside.
The person inside can probably still be called a human being.
The man inside had his hands and feet chained to a cross-shaped wooden stake. His hair was extremely long, almost dragging on the ground.
The hair on his forehead was very long, completely blocking his features, and his fingernails were very long.
The clothes he wore were actually made of wild animal skins.
He also saw Jiang Nanyuan coming in, and then bared his teeth at him.
Jiang Nanyuan could see clearly now that he had a pair of erect ears on his head, and his teeth were long and sharp, a bit like a tiger's fangs. His whole body was dirty, without a single clean spot. All the exposed skin was terribly black, and it felt like a layer of black mud could be rubbed off with just a slight rub.
There are some black hairs sticking to the edge of its mouth.
Jiang Nanyuan instinctively took two steps back in disgust.
Just at this moment, the man seemed to be out of control, twisting his body wildly and making a roaring sound from his mouth.
As he moved around, Jiang Nanyuan discovered that his eyes were actually red.
What kind of monster is this? It's neither human nor beast.
No, he's an orc!
It's a hybrid born from a human and an animal!
It’s strange, why are there orcs on this continent?
It is not surprising to see orcs in their Phoenix Country, but it is very strange to see orcs in this low-level continent without spiritual power.
Could it be that there are animals on this continent that have cultivated into humans? Then, they mingled with humans and gave birth to this beastman?
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Nanyuan felt incredible. She walked forward and wanted to take a closer look at the orc in front of her.
But just as she got closer, the orc's eyes turned red and he opened his mouth like a madman, wanting to bite Jiang Nanyuan.
Seeing this, Jiang Nanyuan was not afraid nor did she hide. She just clenched her fists, gathered her spiritual power into her fists, and gave the orc a slap on the head.
Really, if the tiger doesn’t show its power, people will think I’m a sick cat!
The orc was hit on the head by her and felt the pain in his head, and was stunned for a moment.
Who is she, and why does it hurt so much when she hits herself on the head?
His head is made of iron. Even if a stone weighing a thousand pounds falls on his head, he will not feel any pain at all.
But the man in front of him just tapped his head lightly, and his head hurt so much.
"Behave yourself. If you try to bite me again, I'll beat you up."
Hearing Jiang Nanyuan's words, a trace of fear flashed in the orc's eyes.
That feeling just now was not pleasant, and he didn't want to experience it again.
"Behave yourself. I'll help you untie the chains. Can you speak? If you can, speak. If not, shake your head."
Jiang Nanyuan was not sure whether he could speak. If he was a low-level orc, he would not be able to speak.
She thought that Jiang Nanfeng hid him in this dark cell, there must be some unspeakable secret, if she took him away.
She didn't know how angry Jiang Nanfeng would be, and she found it funny just thinking about it.
"I can speak."
The orc didn't speak for a long time, and there was a hint of hoarseness in his voice.
It’s easier to hear that he can speak, at least we can communicate.
"This iron chain can't be opened, don't waste your energy." This iron chain was made of thousand-year-old cold iron by Jiang Nanfeng.
Without special tools, this chain cannot be broken.
Jiang Nanyuan ignored him and took out a red sword from the space and slashed at the chains on his body.
The orc was so surprised when he saw the chains on his body break that his eyes almost fell to the ground.
"Tell me what happened. Why were you brought here? And how long have you been here?"
