Chapter 255 What do you want me to do!
The black iron gate was completely opened, and Dou Zuan moved to the side, exposing the scene inside completely to everyone's sight.
At first glance, this hall is too simple and there is no decoration at all.
From front to back, it was filled with densely packed cells.
No, it’s more like... a dog cage than a cell!
All the cells were only large enough for one person to curl up or kneel, and it was impossible for one person to stand.
The cage door was locked and the bottom was covered with a layer of dirty straw.
Qin Zhaoyue had good eyesight and could see a lot of things with just a glance.
There were quite a few stains on the straw, and it was easy to guess what they were.
Deliberately ignore these details and move your eyes upwards.
Most of the cells were filled with people, all of whom were quite pretty without exception.
The boy is as handsome as Hsinchu, and the girl is as beautiful as a budding flower. Their facial skin still looks delicate even in the dim light.
But from the torn prison uniforms, it can be seen that many people have scars on their bodies.
The only difference is that some people's wounds were shallow and pink skin had already grown out, while some people's bandages were still bleeding.
The reason why the smell is still bearable is that the medicinal smell is very strong, which covers up all other smells.
Qin Zhaoyue pursed her lips, not because of the smell, but because of the condition of these prisoners.
There was no light in their eyes, only emptiness and numbness.
Many were naked or clothed in tattered muslin that barely covered their bodies.
Without exception, they all had rough leather collars around their necks, connected to chains fixed to the cage wall.
They are like commodities waiting to be picked, or even more like beautiful pets kept in captivity.
The door was wide open, and bright light poured into the hall. The people standing outside were all strangers, but almost no one turned to look over.
A small number of people huddled up, clinging tightly to the cage bars on the side away from the palace gate, and suppressed, faint sobs were heard.
But most people had no reaction at all, no crying, no struggling, just numbness.
Silent beauty is imprisoned in filth, presenting a morbid sense of fragility.
Qin Zhaoyue clenched his fists and could roughly guess the function of this place.
This is the warehouse. After the prisoners have been treated and their wounds healed, they are “released” from the warehouse and sent to the front hall.
In other words, the back hall is the "serving area", a temporary storage place to supplement the feast in the golden pool in front!
At this moment, Dou Zuan stepped in, followed closely by Yinzhe.
Qin Zhaoyue woke up in shock, wondering why the two of them had to go in.
I was psychologically resistant, but in the end I quickly followed.
What if these two reliable bodyguards were left behind and held hostage by the God of Wealth?
The sound of people's footsteps echoed in the hall, followed by the sound of a wheelchair rolling past.
But those in the cage either turned a blind eye, like emotionless puppets;
Or they would huddle in a corner, shivering and trying their best to suppress the fear in their hearts.
The crowd walked forward and came to the bottom of the hall. There was a handle cast on the black stone slab in front of them.
Dou Chi moved quickly and lifted it up, revealing a stone staircase extending downwards that was only wide enough for one person to pass through.
An even stronger and more disgusting smell suddenly surged out!
Compared with the suppressed Chinese medicine in the hall, the smell is more than ten times worse.
The fishy smell, the foul smell, the burnt smell... mixed together, just a hint of it makes your stomach churn.
Before I could get used to it, Dou Zui had already come down the stairs.
"Wait a minute!" Qin Zhaoyue quickly sent a voice message, "Do I have to go down too? Can't one of you stay behind to protect me?"
She had already guessed what the scene would be like below and was unwilling to move for a moment.
As the largest underground force in Fengjing, Jiumen is by no means a charity. There are so many dirty and disgusting things going on inside.
But she is just a princess with no ambitions. Is it necessary for her to know so much?
Yinzhe stopped and glanced at her calmly, "Your Highness, you must not be lazy in your duty as an inspector."
I subconsciously wanted to take a deep breath, but I stopped the action.
Qin Zhaoyue looked at him, but there was no sign of concession in his eyes.
Yinzhe was determined to go down.
After only five or six breaths of confrontation, she ignored him and continued walking down, not forgetting to order Zhao Tai, "Follow me."
The wheelchair of the God of Wealth's head cannot pass through the narrow stairs, so he must be waiting above.
Qin Zhaoyue looked ugly, and her pretty face was tense.
In someone else's territory, is it enough for Sui Mo, who has just been promoted to the fourth level, to protect her from being ambushed?
It is precisely because he is sure of this that Yinzhe is so unscrupulous!
The situation was stronger than she was. She had no choice at this moment and could only grit her teeth and keep up.
Sui Mo stuck closely behind her, and finally it was Zhao Tai, whose expression also looked unhappy.
Qin Zhaoyue didn't dare to stay alone with the God of Wealth, and Zhao Tai didn't dare either.
The downward passage was very narrow, barely wide enough for one person to pass through.
It became more difficult for him to hold the person, and finally he had no choice but to hold the dice heart girl upright and slide her down little by little against his body.
Only the head of the God of Wealth was left there, without a single explanation.
He looked at the cave entrance with a dark and unclear look in his eyes.
It seemed like a perfect opportunity, either to escape or to use the underground palace's mechanisms to ambush.
But... is it really possible to escape from the hands of a powerful person in the Divine Martial Realm?
The difference between one realm is as great as the difference between heaven and earth.
When I was first imprisoned, I didn't have the slightest thought of resisting.
After struggling with my thoughts for a long time, I finally gave up this "tempting" idea.
Why do they have to go down?
What does the confrontation between the "leader" and the female guard just now represent?
Are they also having internal discord?
At this end, everyone has reached the bottom, which is darker and damper than the upper level.
Torches hung on the walls crackled, casting distorted shadows on the rough stone walls covered with dark brown stains.
The air was so thick that every breath felt like swallowing filth, and painful groans and suppressed sobs were heard everywhere.
There are also prison cells below, but they are much wider than the ones above.
Qin Zhaoyue had just stepped down the last stone step when a shrill scream suddenly came from the right front.
Looking up, I saw a beautiful girl tied to an iron chair, her hands bound by iron rings and immersed in a bucket of water in front of her.
From this angle, Qin Zhaoyue couldn't see clearly what was in the bucket, but the girl pulled back and raised her wrist to try to avoid it.
The severe pain caused her body to twitch violently, her face twisted like a ghost, and she shook her body violently when she saw the person coming.
When his wrist rubbed against the iron ring, bright red blood immediately flowed out, covering the rough black scar.
But she was completely unaware, her eyes fixed on their faces as if filled with poison.
He bared his teeth, and his jaws opened and closed repeatedly, as if he was tearing at their flesh.
The girl's action seemed to have triggered some mechanism, and the gloomy prison was immediately filled with the sounds of metal colliding and roaring.
Qin Zhaoyue finally shifted his gaze and stopped looking at the girl.
But when her eyes fell on a torture rack in the distance, she was stunned.
"Stop!" This time, without any voice transmission, Qin Zhaoyue quickly stepped forward to stop Yinzhe.
"What on earth do you want me to do!"
