Night passed and day came again. It rained outside during the first day. The rainwater flowed in along the walls, soaking the already rancid cell with moisture. From far and near, there were curses, voices, and moans, like ghosts.
Sound like.
The jailer banged on the cell and shouted loudly. After a while, the prisoner who made the most noise was dragged out and tortured. At some point, new prisoners were brought in.
The wounded man in the same room groaned for a while in the afternoon, rolling feebly on the straw, with a cry in his moans. You Hongzhuo was in pain and weak all over, but he was disturbed by the sound for a long time. He raised his head to see the appearance of the wounded man, and saw
The man's face was covered with knife marks, and his nose was cut off. He was probably tortured arbitrarily by the guards in this prison. This man was a member of the Hungry Ghosts. He might have once had the identity of Black Flag, but from a few
Judging by his age, You Hongzhuo estimated that he was only a young man in his twenties.
You Hongzhuo was not yet twenty, so he couldn't feel much emotion about the age of the person in front of him. He just stayed silently in the corner, watching the person's suffering. The injuries were too serious. The other person would die sooner or later. The person in the cell
No one cares about him anymore. These remnants of the Black Flag are bound to be killed by Wang Shitong in a few days. It is nothing more than the difference between dying early and dying later.
You Hongzhuo still couldn't figure out how he was caught as a remnant of the Black Flag, and why the master he saw on the street didn't save him. Now he already knows that in this world, it's not necessarily a big deal.
A chivalrous person will act chivalrously and help others in distress.
He felt that he was probably going to die.
The young man has not yet reached the age of eighteen in this world, but in the last six months, he has tasted too many sweet and sour tastes. His whole family died, he fought for his life, killed people, was hacked, and almost starved to death.
Now, he is locked up again and tortured. After a bumpy journey, if he was quite energetic at the beginning, now, being locked up in this cell, he gradually feels a sense of despair in his heart.
Because I couldn't think of how to resist for a while, the emotion of resistance in my heart also faded away.
At night, the injured person in his roommate started talking nonsense and mumbling, and most of them didn't know what he was talking about. Late at night, when You Hongzhuo woke up from a hazy dream, he heard the cry: "
It hurts...I hurt so much..."
"Father...Mom..." The injured person was crying, "I feel so much pain..."
It turns out that these remnants of Black Flag also cry like this, and even cry for father and mother.
You Hongzhuo thought in his mind. The injured man groaned for a long time, and was miserable. Someone in the cell opposite shouted: "Hey, you... give him a good time! Give him a good time..." It was the man opposite who was shouting.
You Hongzhuo died. You Hongzhuo lay in the darkness, stunned and didn't want to move, but tears slid down his face involuntarily. It turned out that he couldn't help but think that this man in his twenties was going to die, but he was only in his teens.
Why must we die here?
After lying like this for a long time, he rolled up from there, leaned towards the injured person, reached out to pinch the injured person's neck, and stretched it into the air. He looked at the injuries on the person's face and body, and listened in his ears.
The man cried: "Father, mother...brother...don't want to die..." Thinking of himself, tears suddenly fell uncontrollably. The man in the cell opposite was puzzled: "Hey, you killed him to help him!"
You Hongzhuo finally turned back, hid himself in the darkness, and replied in a low voice: "I can't do it."
"You ****, look at him like this... If you can get out, I will beat you to death."
"Come here and kill me if you dare."
You Hongzhuo shouted hysterically.
******************
The young man's sudden attack suppressed the anger on the other side. The people in the cell are either about to die or will be executed in a few days. They are full of despair. But since You Hongzhuo has made it clear that he is not afraid of death, the other side cannot really charge.
It's pointless to say more when you're here.
Another day passed, and the injured man was dying and could only occasionally talk nonsense. You Hongzhuo felt pity and dragged his injured body to get some water and gave him a few mouthfuls of water. At this time, the other person seemed to be feeling better.
Quite a few, what he said was clear and pieced together. You Hongzhuo knew that he had at least one brother and parents before, but now he didn't know if he still had one.
In the evening, the two jailers from yesterday came over, took You Hongzhuo out again, and tortured him. During the torture, the leading policeman said: "I'm not afraid to tell you, which Mr. Kuang has provided the money, and let the brothers take care of you."
.Hey, if you have someone outside who is filial, I can make you feel better."
You Hongzhuo is alone and alone. Where can he find any relatives in the world? There is still some money in Liang'an Inn that Mr. Zhao gave him when he left. But it was one thing for him to be sad and shed tears last night. Facing these evil people, the young man
He still has a stubborn temper and doesn't open his mouth.
The two detectives beat him to pieces and covered him with blood before throwing him back into the prison. Their torture was also measured. Although it was extremely painful, there were no serious injuries. This was to allow You Hongzhuo to maintain his maximum strength.
If they are awake and can endure more torture, they naturally know that You Hongzhuo was framed by someone. Since he is not a remnant of the Black Flag, there may be some money and property. Although they received money for torturing You Hongzhuo, they can make some extra money in addition to this.
A good thing.
After being thrown back into the cell, You Hongzhuo had no strength for a moment. He lay on the straw for a while. At some point, he suddenly realized that the seriously injured inmate next to him was no longer moaning.
He sat up with difficulty. The man next to him opened his eyes and seemed to be looking at him. However, his eyes were more white than black and looked vague. It took a long time before he moved slightly. He whispered: "Why...why...
…”
"Jurchens... bad guys... dog officers... horse bandits... bullies... army... Tian Hu..." The injured person murmured, as if he wanted to recall all the evil people in his memory one by one before he died.
Curse again. After a while, he said: "Father... mother... don't eat, don't eat Guanyin soil... we won't give food to others, we..."
"Wait until eldest brother defeats the Jurchens...defeats the Jurchens..."
"Why do our own people beat our own people...beat the Jurchens..."
The muttering voice was sometimes high and low, sometimes with a cry. You Hongzhuo was in unspeakable pain at this time, but he just listened indifferently. The man in the cell opposite stretched out his hand: "Give him a good time, give him a
It's a pleasure for him, I beg you, I accept your favor..."
You Hongzhuo was stunned and didn't move. The man spoke several times, his voice getting louder: "I'm begging you! Do you know? Do you know? This man's brother joined the army and died fighting the Jurchens. His family was originally rich.
He opened a warehouse to give grain to people during the famine. Later, he was attacked by horse bandits. He even put the grain in his house and had nothing to eat. His parents died of eating Guanyin soil! Raise your hand, please give him a
"Pleasurable"
You Hongzhuo wanted to reach out, but he didn't know why, but he couldn't raise his hand at the moment. After a moment, he opened his mouth and made a hoarse voice: "Haha, you are miserable, who hasn't seen anything worse?
You are miserable. How about the people you killed? Many people did not provoke you. You cough cough cough... people from Zezhou."
His words were stuck in his throat. The man opposite him was stunned and became furious: "What did you say? Have you ever seen people starve to death!"
"I almost starved to death cough cough"
"Have you ever seen what tens of thousands of people look like without food!? They just want to go south."
"If you want to go south, you will kill people too."
"Then...what else can we do? People are going to starve to death."
Both sides yelled a few words, but You Hongzhuo just wanted to argue: "...If there is chaos in Zezhou, who will the people of Zezhou blame?"
"...If you are outside, I will kill you!"
"Haha, come on!"
"Fuck you, mother! You must die a good death."
Amidst You Hongzhuo's dry laughter, there were also curses rang out from around him. A moment later, he was greeted by the jailer's suppression again. You Hongzhuo wiped the tears from his face in the darkness. Those tears fell into the wound. It was so painful.
Those words were not what he really wanted to say, but in such a desperate environment, he couldn't suppress the malice in his heart. After saying it, he felt that he was really a wicked person.
The memory then became hazy, and his body could not hold up the excitement. After venting, sleep came in like a wave. There was everything in the nightmare, and he could also see his parents in the clips, being insulted.
Later, his mother went crazy and his father was humiliated and killed. He vaguely saw the family of three when he was a child. Sometimes his memory was broken. He saw his parents eating Guanyin soil in hunger and died. His mother fed him porridge.
Said: "Eat quickly, eat quickly, mother is not hungry, she can eat well..." The mother's belly bulged slightly, but in the dream, the terrible awakening made him realize that the belly was full of dirt, he thought in his heart
He wanted to shout, but he couldn't. The little You Hongzhuo happily drank the porridge.
What kind of world is like this dream? In the fragments of the dream, he also dreamed of those who were good to him. Several brothers and sisters killed each other in the dream, and blood was everywhere. But the figures of Mr. Zhao and his wife were
It passed in a flash, and a warm feeling arose in the hazy state. He opened his eyes, not knowing whether he was in a dream or reality. There was still a dim light, and the pain in his body was no longer so faint.
Yes, it feels like a bandage.
We can't let them all die before execution...
As if such words were heard, You Hongzhuo tilted his head slightly, vaguely feeling that he was in a nightmare.
At the other end of the cell, a figure was sitting on the ground. It didn't look like someone seen in the prison, but it actually looked a bit like Mr. Zhao. He was wearing a long gown and had a small box beside him. He was sitting there, holding his hands quietly.
Holding the seriously injured young man's hand.
The dying young man whispered something in the darkness. You Hongzhuo subconsciously wanted to hear it, but couldn't hear it clearly. Then Mr. Zhao also said something. You Hongzhuo's consciousness sometimes became clear and sometimes faded away.
At that moment, the voice of the voice disappeared. Mr. Zhao pressed his hand on the injured person, stood up and left. The injured person also became quiet forever, far away from the unspeakable pain...
The prison was noisy and quiet for a while. You Hongzhuo could not wake up completely and finally fell into a deep sleep again. Some words that he seemed to have heard but seemed to have never heard floated up in the darkness and sank again. By the time he woke up,
At that time, it almost completely sank into the depths of his consciousness and he could no longer remember it clearly.
Like your brother, you are an admirable and great person...
I am honored to have existed in this world with people like you.

At the door of the Zezhou prison, Ning Yi opened his hand and accepted another body search from the jailers like other doctors. Some jailers passed by and looked at this scene with confusion, wondering why the superiors suddenly had a whim and wanted to organize the doctors to inflict serious injuries on the prisoners.
The person does healing.
When he walked onto the street, it was the darkest moment of the night. It was the end of June and there was no moon in the sky. After a while, a figure came quietly and walked side by side with him on the street: "Do you feel that this place looks like
Is it Hangzhou?”
"This chaotic place feels like Hangzhou." Ning Yi laughed, and the woman named Liu Xigua beside her turned around slightly. Her smile was as clear as her eyes, even after experiencing many things
, still pure and firm.
They were walking on the streets in the dark night, and the patrolling watchmen and troops came over, but they were not found. Even in this night, in the dimly lit city, there were still various forces and intentions stirring.
, people are doing their own thing, trying to meet the collision. In this seemingly peaceful and permeating silence, the time point of contact is about to be reached.
The morning light is faint, and the fiery day will replace the night again... (To be continued.)
