Volume 1 Chapter 308 Feeding Humiliation
"Ugh~" Uncle Wang felt that his physical condition was very bad. He wanted to roar angrily, but found that he simply did not have the strength to do so. He could only groan softly.
Wang Shu didn't have the mind to care about the wound on his head. He could only try his best to use both hands to pull the noose around his neck open so that he could breathe smoother and not suffocate to death.
Wang Shu and Shen Qingqiu were dragged along by Ge Hong all the way, bumping into each other and getting countless scratches and bruises on their bodies. There was even a bloody cut on the right side of Shen Qingqiu's face.
Wang Shu was unable to resist in any other way and could only rely on his strong willpower to keep himself conscious as much as possible and not faint.
He couldn't dare faint in this situation. Once he fainted, the noose around his neck would definitely suffocate him to death.
It was unknown how long it had passed before Ge Hong and the others finally stopped. The dazed Wang Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief. His left eye, the only one he could open, was also a little blurry, and he could not see the whole picture of the outside world. He only saw many tents and torches around him, as well as a large number of war horses neighing and roaring.
Before he could see more clearly, Wang Shu felt a sharp pain in his head, then his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Shen Qingqiu at the side was not in a good condition either. He lay on the ground, wailing and sobbing. He felt as if his whole body was torn apart and he cried out in pain. He had never suffered such a sin in his life.
At this time, Ge Hong dismounted from his horse, without even looking at the two of them, and directly ordered: "Lock these two guys in the tiger prison for me, and call the military doctor to treat them and bandage their wounds. Don't let them die. I still have great use for them!"
"Yes!" The other soldiers agreed and then dispersed. Two soldiers ran towards Wang Shu, grabbed Wang Shu's feet and dragged him away.
One day later
"Uh~ where am I?"
Wang Shu woke up in a daze, only to feel a severe headache. He reached out to touch his head, only to feel a large amount of gauze wrapped around it, and his hands were also wrapped in some dirty rags, which were stained with dirty and smelly scarlet blood.
"Ah~" Before Wang Shu could react, a huge tiger roar suddenly came from not far away, deafening and showing its majesty and domineering power.
Wang Shu quickly turned over while enduring the pain, and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw a huge cage two meters high and five meters long placed five meters to his right. The cage was made of iron, with thick iron pillars, and there were many black bloodstains and a lot of fluffy hair on it.
There was a huge orange-spotted tiger imprisoned in the iron cage, and the roar just now was made by it.
Although Wang Shu had never seen a real mountain tiger, he had seen it in many calligraphy and paintings. He had also seen many paintings by famous people and saints. The tigers painted in those paintings were born overlords, lifelike, mighty and majestic, but compared with the one in the cage, they were as ridiculous as kittens.
However, what puzzled Wang Shu was why the appearance of this tiger was different from the one in the painting?
The four claws of the tiger in the cage are longer and sharper than those of the tiger in the painting, and can also reflect cold light, which is quite scary. Wang Shu has no doubt that the toughness and sharpness of these claws are comparable to his Yaoyang Sword.
However, the most eye-catching thing is not its sharp claws, but its bloody mouth. Its tiger head seems slightly smaller than its body, and the two fangs on its lower jaw are extremely long, extending all the way to the chin, and even slightly beyond it!
Wang Shu absolutely believed that this pair of fangs could penetrate and crush any bone in his body.
There was another feature of this tiger that made Wang Shu feel strange. The rest of its body was intact and covered with thick hair, but the sides of its back were bloody and had two tumors nearly half a meter long that were still bulging slightly.
Just looking at this kind of ghost thing made one feel painful. Wang Shu finally realized why the tiger roared just now. It must be because of the pain from the tumor on its back.
At this moment, Wang Shu suddenly realized that the place where he was seemed to be...
Looking at the thick iron pillars not far in front of him, and then looking at the surrounding environment, he suddenly found it ridiculous that his situation was actually the same as that of the tiger, locked in a dirty iron cage, like a beast.
"Prime Minister~! Lord Prime Minister, you are finally awake!"
Shen Qingqiu, who was sleeping with his eyes closed, suddenly found that Wang Shu had woken up, so he ran over despite the pain all over his body, supported Wang Shu and shouted: "The Prime Minister has been in a coma for a day and a night, and Qingqiu has been worried for a day and a night. Now that the Prime Minister is fine, Qingqiu can be said to be relieved."
In such a humiliating situation, if it weren't for the mission of seeking peace, Wang Shu really wanted to commit suicide on the spot.
With a complicated look on his face, he looked at Shen Qingqiu, whose entire body was wrapped in gauze. He really didn't feel like paying attention to him anymore, so he turned his head away and closed his eyes in deep thought.
At this moment, four black-armored soldiers carried a huge wooden barrel one meter high and slowly walked to the iron cage where the giant tiger was imprisoned. They put it down and then opened it, revealing the contents of the barrel.
It was a bucket of foul water, filled with a large amount of raw meat stained with scarlet blood, as well as many gnawed bones, leftovers, and even oil.
Although it was dirty and messy, except for the blood and flesh, the rest was still fresh and not smelly. It was obvious that the soldiers in the barracks had not finished their meals today, all mixed together and used to feed the tiger.
The iron cage was not opened. The two soldiers just took a spoon and scooped out a large spoonful of food and flesh from the wooden barrel. They threw it into the iron cage, throwing all the food, flesh and blood into it. Then they scooped out a second spoonful without even looking at the white tiger.
The movements were smooth and familiar, and it was obvious that this was not the first time they had fed each other in this way.
At this time, the white tiger in the iron cage also bit the flesh and blood madly, swallowed it whole, and then kept licking the leftovers on the floor. The mighty and domineering aura just now was swept away, just like a loyal mastiff to these soldiers.
When Wang Shu saw this scene, he couldn't help but stand there in a daze. His worldview was overturned and his mood became even heavier.
Soon all the blood and flesh in the wooden barrel were dug out, leaving only a small spoonful of leftovers mixed with scarlet blood.
The four soldiers immediately chuckled, and one of them held the small spoon of leftovers and staggered towards the cage where Wang Shu and the other were.
Wang Shu's eyebrows suddenly jumped, and veins on his forehead bulged. As the soldier got closer and closer, Wang Shu couldn't help but roared: "Stop, if you dare to take another step forward, I will definitely kill you!"
But the soldier just smiled contemptuously, not taking Wang Shu's words seriously at all, and continued to approach.
Wang Shu became very agitated. He endured the severe pain all over his body, struggled to get up and wanted to kill the approaching soldier.
It's a pity that the serious injuries on his body restricted his movements, and it was impossible for him to take action against people outside the cage.
Soon the soldier approached the iron cage, and then, like before, he threw half a spoonful of leftovers into the cage, scattering them all over the floor.
This humiliating act completely enraged Wang Shu. He roared angrily and rushed towards the entrance of the iron cage.
The soldier outside immediately shouted angrily, took a spear from the soldier standing guard nearby, poked the spear into the iron cage, and hit Wang Shu on the chest.
Wang Shu groaned and collapsed to the ground, feeling a burning sensation in his chest. Suddenly, his other injuries flared up, and the severe pain made it difficult for him to get up, especially his head.
Suddenly he turned sideways and saw a scene that he would never forget and a scene of angry gnashing of teeth.
It was because Shen Qingqiu beside him was like a loyal dog at this moment, lowering his body very low, and humbly using his hands to constantly pick up the leftovers on the ground and put them into his mouth.
Wang Shu felt extremely heartbroken, and cursed himself in his heart for having misjudged the person. Then, with red eyes and gnashing teeth, he shouted, "Don't eat it. This Prime Minister forbids you to eat it! Spit it out, spit it all out!"
"Where is your dignity? Where is your backbone? Are you still a member of the Dayun Empire? Ah!"
Shen Qingqiu, who was extremely hungry, was stunned when he heard Wang Shu's angry words. Then he hurriedly grabbed a handful of food and rushed directly towards Wang Shu, saying viciously: "Prime Minister, if you don't eat, you will really starve to death!
It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. Prime Minister, you should eat more!"
Wang Shu, who was cursing angrily, was suddenly stuffed with a handful of leftovers by Shen Qingqiu. Wang Shu felt extremely disgusted and quickly spit it out. He struggled angrily and was ready to curse even more angrily.
But the next moment, Shen Qingqiu didn't know where he got the strength from, and he actually used both hands to tightly cover Wang Shu's mouth, preventing him from spitting out the food, and even stuffed some more into it.
Wang Shu struggled continuously, but his whole body was covered with wounds and he had no strength to move. Shen Qingqiu also tried his best to block him, but the violent twisting caused the wounds on his body to burst, and blood began to seep out again.
Shen Qingqiu, who was in extreme pain, said with red eyes and sobs: "Prime Minister!
Just eat it. Consider it as Qingqiu begging you. Don’t you have the huge mission of seeking peace with the Chixiao Dynasty?
If you die here, you will have nothing. The people of Dayun Empire are still waiting for good news from you!"
