Under the dim yellow light, in the dank room, there was a bloody man hanging on a wooden frame.
His hands and feet were tied with iron chains, his hair was disheveled, and blood flowed from his forehead to his chin, then along his chin, across his body, until it dripped from his toes.
Under his feet, which was half suspended in the air, was a pool of blood that had already condensed.
The naked man was so breathless that he obviously had only one breath left.
There was a lot of brightly colored dust on his body, which looked like it had been rouged.
But these details only make him look even more miserable.
In front of him, sitting on the bench at the door of the room, was a young man dripping with sweat.
The young man lowered his head, panting, and the thorns on his hands were dripping with blood. It seemed that the person on the wooden frame opposite had been tortured to this point by him.
He raised his head, looked at the object on the wooden frame that could be called a "human" with incomparably cold eyes, and said in a rather sarcastic tone:
"Wang Can, do you know where you went wrong?"
no answer--
In other words, in the entire room and in the entire dim passage, except for the speaker and the object called "Wang Can", there is no living thing that can answer this question.
He stood up and combed his hair, which was a little messy due to exertion.
Ta da da da - Yunlu was soaked with blood, but he didn't care at all. He walked up to Wang Can.
"Who do you think you are?"
"Do you really think that relying on the protection of your grandfather and father, you can thrive under the Prime Minister?"
"Hehehe... Why are you arguing with me? I have the whole Ma family, and I have half of Xiangyang..."
"Let us guess, if I kill you today, will the Prime Minister punish me?"
The speaker is called Ma Su. During the day, he is the young father-in-law of the Ma family, and he is extremely prosperous——
Just today…
Today, his so-called title of Young Master did not bring him any convenience. On the contrary, he had no power to fight back when he was humiliated, which made him feel the great shame from his birth.
Even he couldn't take action against the person who humiliated him... But this Wang Can... How could this Wang Can show off his power in front of him by relying on the strength of others?
Ma Su's face showed a strange twist, his eyes were protruding, and he couldn't see any trace of the suave young man of the Ma family. Hatred made him look like a monster.
Bang bang——
He patted Wang Can's cheek with his hand.
Wang Can's body was full of shocking scars, but this face, Ma Su kept this complete face just to let those who would oppose him in the future see what the consequences would be if they opposed him - even if the opponent
He is the chief secretary just appointed by Cao Cao.
"I'm so sorry..."
"What did you say?"
"Feel sorry…"
Ma Su thought he heard something wrong, but the other party repeated it again, and he smiled unbelievably and couldn't help laughing.
"Hahaha...hahahahahahaha!!"
A series of hysterical laughter made the already dark passage and room appear even more eerie and terrifying.
After laughing, Ma Su suddenly had a more resentful expression on his face and kicked Wang Can hard in the abdomen. Wang Can couldn't bear the pain and vomited out a mouthful of blood.
His whole body was twitching, and it looked like he was about to die soon, and Ma Su finally stopped.
"You can't die now, I haven't had enough fun yet."
"A doctor will be here later..."
"That Yi Xiaotian..."
Ma Su suddenly talked about Yi Xiaotian. Yi Xiaotian's expression of contempt, teasing and confidence lingered in his mind. Every time he thought about it, Ma Di wanted to bite his teeth into pieces.
Down.
"Little...young master...please...spare me..."
Suddenly, a dying cry came from the next room. With a ruthless smile on his face, the young master pulled the thorn and walked slowly over.
Then, amid a burst of manic whipping, a not-poor man named Mayong passed away forever.
"spit…"
"Trash, don't deserve to live."
A mouthful of spit flew onto Ma Yong's motionless head, making him look even more miserable.
——
Xiangyang City was suddenly awakened in the dead of night.
Those who were awake, holding night lights, stuck their heads out to see what was happening on the street.
Those who were afraid of trouble already knew that there would be no peace in the city tonight when they heard the sound of armor trampling on the streets.
Someone shouted outside that if they were irrelevant people, they should not meddle in other people's business. They would be killed on the spot if they went out tonight, so no one really rushed to take advantage of this bad luck.
Only the aristocratic families in the city were worried about this commotion.
When the army passed by the gate of Cai Mansion, and Cai Cheng was dragged out of the courtyard by Xu Chu's neck, he looked at the heavily guarded armors all over the street with a blank look on his face, not knowing what was going on at this time.
Until Yi Xiaotian walked out expressionlessly and said to him:
"Where is Ma Mansion? Take me there."
After saying these words, Cai Cheng took stiff steps and ran towards the Cai Mansion in the south of the city.
——
"It's not good! Young Master! Where is Young Master?"
"There are a lot of soldiers and horses outside the house!"
The concierge heard the commotion outside the area from a distance. He chose to open the door and quietly inquire, but he saw Cai Cheng, the young master of the Cai family, hunching his neck and leading the way stiffly.
Instinct drove the old concierge to return to the house and call for help.
But after the concierge woke up the house, everyone fell silent.
Everyone knew that the young master lost his temper today, and many people saw the young master leading the servants in the mansion to disguise themselves and go out...
"This... the young master is still in the dungeon, what should I do?"
The servants were running around anxiously, and the sound of armor outside the door was getting closer and closer.
"No hurries!"
"Go back and wait for me. As long as the other party doesn't know where the dungeon is, they have no way of doing anything to me!"
"If they dare to hurt people for no reason... hum."
Just as everyone was rushing around anxiously, a tall, thin man who was not too old and looked very arrogant walked out of the hall.
"Ah...yes...it's Manager Li! You...when did you come back!"
Everyone exclaimed, this young manager Li left the mansion last month to take care of business, and the only manager left in the mansion was Ma Yong. Ma Yong could be flattering, but he didn't have a very bright mind.
Manager Li's name is Li Yue, and he is the one who really takes care of all the servants and servants in Ma's house.
With Li Yue, everyone felt much more at ease.
Not to mention... Li Yue was the man in black who appeared in disguise in the inn lobby today.
Yes, in addition to Ma Su's intention, Li Yue also played a lot of roles in it, including blowing wind from Ma Su's ear and not choosing Yi Xiaotian to attack, but only Wang Can. He was responsible for this.
