"Okay, you'd better find a way to feed him something. Otherwise, if he really starves to death and the master blames us, we will be in big trouble." said the jailer who was eating melon seeds.
The slightly overweight jailer glanced at him with dissatisfaction: "Then why don't you think of a solution? This matter is not my sole responsibility. Didn't you just ask to buy him food from Jiuxianlou? If you have the ability, go buy it yourself."
The jailer, who was eating melon seeds, threw the seeds in his hand onto the table and spat on the ground in an unlucky tone: "Liu San, don't be so shameless. Don't you see who you are?"
Liu San's expression changed slightly.
Indeed, although both of them were in charge of the cell, the other had someone above him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be the only one busy with the work while he could sit and eat melon seeds. Thinking of this, Liu San's face became even uglier.
"The man in the cell was specifically ordered by the master to be tortured, but he must be alive. If he really died, I would at most give him a scolding, but it's different for you. You won't even know how you died."
Liu San felt extremely aggrieved, and finally he could only carry the bucket back to the cell with a gloomy face.
'Bang Bang'
The iron spoon banged on the prison door.
The person in the cell remained motionless.
Liu San felt a little uneasy. Could he have really starved to death? After thinking about it, he quickly took out the key and opened the cell door.
"Hello."
Liu San approached the person in the corner, but out of caution he first poked the person on the ground with the long spoon in his hand. Seeing that the person really didn't move, he hurriedly stepped forward to support the person on the ground.
The man on the ground suddenly jumped up.
All I could hear was the rattling of chains.
An iron chain was wrapped around Liu San's neck, and the force it exerted was so great that it seemed as if his neck would be broken in the next second. The pain made Liu San's veins bulge and fear flashed in his eyes.
“Hmm…”
Liu San struggled.
The man who was strangling his neck held the chain tightly in his hand. When Liu San was about to die, a crossbow arrow shot at the arm holding the chain. The force suddenly weakened, but he still did not let go.
"open."
The person who shot the crossbow arrow was the jailer who had just been eating melon seeds.
He held up his crossbow through the cell door, clearly wary of the man inside, and warned, "It's useless even if you kill him. You can't escape. You'd better be sensible and submit to my master. Perhaps you can suffer less."
Yang Yueqi glanced at the people outside the cell, and raised his cracked lips slightly: "Food from Jiuxianlou."
He said in a dry voice.
Then he let go of Liu San.
He avoided the iron chain that pierced his scapula, leaned against the wall, and then pulled out the arrow from his arm. There was no change on his dirty and emaciated face, as if he didn't feel any pain.
He played with the arrow in his hand.
Barbed thorn.
His flesh and blood were still on it.
"By the way, in addition to the food, remember to get some wine. I haven't had a drink for a long time, and today I feel like drinking." Yang Yueqi's voice was very hoarse, and when his cracked lips opened and closed, blood stains from peeling skin could be clearly seen.
After saying that, he casually threw the arrow on the ground.
Then he closed his eyes.
As soon as Liu Sanyi was freed, he crawled away from Yang Yueqi. When he got up and recovered, he heard what Yang Yueqi said. He was angry and annoyed, but when he looked at Yang Yueqi, there was a flash of fear in his eyes.
"What are you still standing there for? Bring me the arrow." Jailer Li Huan glared at Liu San.
