Every day, there are people who want to see them frolic like wild beasts.
No, it's not.
Because he is a human being, not a beast.
He thought that if he killed everyone, he could leave this place.
But reality told him it was impossible.
He was constantly engaged in violent killings, even in his dreams.
Regardless of his severe injuries, he was still hoping that his wounds would fester or that he would bleed to death.
That's how he was freed.
At that time, someone brought him medicine and food in the Colosseum.
He didn't move, and neither did the woman.
While he remained motionless, as if unconscious, he heard the woman move.
She came over.
She gently nudged him, then whispered to the masked man standing nearby, "Could you give me some clean water?"
"I want to treat his wounds."
"He might be dying."
However, the masked men standing guard did not answer her; they all ignored them.
At this moment, Xiao Jin felt someone checking his breathing.
It's that woman.
He was too lazy to open his eyes; he was wondering what she would do.
The next second, he felt someone feeding him water.
They were still tending to his wounds.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw her trembling hands and pale face as she applied the medicine powder to his wound.
She was still praying quietly, praying that he would live, otherwise she would be sold or become someone else's prize.
Xiao Jin had originally thought that he himself was in dire need of protection and might die one day, either at the hands of others or in the gaping maw of a wild beast.
When she realized he was awake and still looking at her, she whispered, "Please, please don't give up. We will definitely get out of here."
Looking at her delicate appearance, Xiao Jin felt that she was telling a fantasy.
In the end, he still sat up and ate the food that had been brought to him.
The food varied in quality; there was meat, large white steamed buns, and other things whose color was indistinguishable.
She sat to one side, swallowing several times, but she didn't reach out to take it.
In this place, the weak are not worthy to eat with the strong, unless the strong are willing to give them alms.
Seeing her pitiful state, Xiao Jin casually picked up a steamed bun and threw it at her, saying, "Eat your fill so you'll have the strength to leave this place later."
Being suddenly given a steamed bun by him made her feel flattered and grateful to tears. She even asked him, "Is this something I can eat?"
"Um."
Hearing his reply, she began to eat heartily, as if she hadn't eaten in a long time.
Xiao Jin took out the reward money from the corner, looked at the masked man guarding the door, and said, "Give her a set of clothes and some food, and prepare more of it too."
Ah Li looked at Xiao Jin with teary eyes, "You are the best person I have ever met."
Xiao Jin took a few banknotes and stretched them out of the cage.
At this moment, the masked man moved. He took the money from Xiao Jin's hand, looked at Ah Li hiding behind Xiao Jin without saying a word, and then turned and left.
Ah Li trembled and whispered, "That person's gaze was terrifying."
Xiao Jin merely glanced at her indifferently, neither asking her why she was in the slave market nor engaging in any absurd acts with her in this cage.
For the past three years, she and he have been living in this cage.
The cage wasn't big, but it was covered in scratches, each scratch representing a day.
He was also occasionally dragged out to engage in life-or-death struggles with others.
But just yesterday, he was chosen again and sent to the Colosseum.
When he returned, she was gone.
He wanted to go find her!
She returned just as he was about to break down the cell door.
She was in very bad shape, like a walking corpse.
Xiao Jin called out worriedly, "Ah Li?"
When she heard him call her name, she burst into tears, feeling very wronged. She then threw herself into his arms, sobbing weakly and helplessly, "Xiao Jin, they're going to sell me. I'm so scared."
