Dark night, cold prison.

The shackles were also cold, but the shackles that hung Wang Ergou had become warm, as warm as the human body.

Summer in Yangzhou should be hot, but it is unusually cold here.

Is this winter?

If it weren't for Wang Ergou who spent the autumn in a coma, this place would not be human at all.

Only winter and hell can be so cold.

He was hung in a dungeon almost all over, the dungeon was very spacious, but only he was hanging.

In fact, he wasn't sure if it was night at this time, because the darkness in the dungeon made it impossible to distinguish between night and day.

Shame hit his heart, and he was stripped naked...... He thought to himself that if he let go of himself, he would definitely get revenge.

Could it be that Mao Dayong is dead? Otherwise, how would this group of people treat themselves like this?

What's the matter with Wu Jiazhi? Why didn't he dare to recognize himself in front of Mao Dayong? What kind of medicine was sold in Mingjiao's gourd?

If I hadn't woken up, I might not have realized the soreness and pain in my arm, but the more I think about it now, the more painful it becomes. But when I think of the shame of being stripped naked, it seems that my arms don't hurt so much......

"Bang", the sound of the metal door opening.

A red lantern fluttered in the distance, reflecting the silhouette of a woman, a richly dressed woman......

The man walked two feet away from Wang Ergou, and seemed to find that he had no clothes, so he stopped moving forward and turned his face sideways.

She is Mrs. Mao.

Wang Ergou couldn't wait to kill himself at this time, it was really a shame.

"Ahem...... You...... Who the hell are you?" she asked.

"A man nailed to the pillar of shame. ”

"You...... How could it be...... How could there be this?" her round and white wrist flipped over, and a red round jade bi was held in her hand.

"This is someone who asked me to bring it to you. ”

Mrs. Mao whispered "ah", and she tried her best to restrain her tone without trembling: "He...... Who is he......"

"His surname is Qiu! I don't know his name. ”

He ...... Where is he at this time?"

"Underground! like this dungeon...... By the way, what time is it and how long have I been hanging?"

Mrs. Mao seemed to wipe the corners of her eyes: "It's been a day, and it's ...... now."

"I was only hanged for one day, but Mr. Qiu lived in a place as dark as a dungeon for eighteen years......

"Is he alone?"

"Alone!"

"How do you know him?" she choked up.

"Some peculiar karma, he had an old relationship with my master, and told me many stories from eighteen years ago, and when I left that place, he specially handed over this piece of jade to me, and asked me to go to Yangzhou to hand it over to Mrs. Mao, and now, I have completed the task. ”

"You...... Can you go back?"

A glimmer of light flashed in Wang Ergou's heart.

"Of course I can, but only if I survive...... Is your son going to kill me?"

"It should be, but thankfully he's poisoned—but fortunately, Master Wu has brought his poison under control...... And thank you for that, otherwise he would have died in my yard. ”

"That's good......" Wang Ergou let out a sigh.

But I heard her lead the topic back to Lao Qiu: "Did he ask you to give me a message?"

"Nope. ”

"Then he, why hasn't he come out for the past eighteen years...... Didn't he know that someone had been waiting for him?"

"I heard that he came out once more than ten years ago, but then he heard some news, so he went back and stayed until now. ”

Mrs. Mao shook her body, then covered her heart, and was speechless for a long time.

Quiet for a long time.

Mrs. Mao finally picked up the lantern, took a few steps out, and then turned back and said, "Thank you...... You kill the five scales, but I will do my best to save your life, but, in exchange, I need you to remove him from the darkness...... Please come out ......"

With that, a lantern drifted into the darkness until it disappeared.

Wang Ergou wanted to refute that he didn't kill Mao Wuscale, but after hearing that Mrs. Mao was a little indifferent to her husband's "death", he couldn't help but feel terrified.

What was on this woman's mind?

No one tortured, no one questioned, boring long hair.

Wang Ergou is still hanging in this boundless night.

I don't know how long later, someone in the distance snorted, and then there was the sound of a soft iron lock being opened.

"Squeak ......"

The voice was soft, but it was enough to wake Wang Ergou up.

Someone came, but the man didn't have a lantern, and they could hear each other's breath as they approached, but they couldn't see each other.

The other party's breathing was getting closer and closer to him, until Wang Ergou saw a blurred figure standing less than three feet away from him.

"Who?"

"I ......"

Very familiar man's voice.

"Wu Jiazhi?"

The person who came actually laughed, shook the fire fold from his arms, and the dungeon instantly brightened.

Under the light of the fire, it was really Wu Jia standing opposite him with a straight smile.

Wang Ergou scolded: "Are you sick? Why don't you recognize me during the day, but wait until I'm naked before you come to me?

Wu Jiazhi didn't notice that Wang Ergou was naked when he didn't say this, and when Wang Ergou said it, he suddenly threw the flames backwards like a fire fold, and then covered his face and jumped out far away.

"No, it's supposed to be me who is shy, what about you old man......" Wang Ergou sneered, "Didn't you strip me naked just now?"

But I heard a woman's delicate voice say: "Wang Ergou ......"

The voice was extremely familiar, making Wang Ergou instantly think of the spring in the room of Kaifeng Heaven and Earth.

"Invite Yue?" he asked tentatively.

That "Wu Jiazhi" still covered his face, not daring to look at Wang Ergou: "I don't use this name for a long time...... But if you like to call me, call me that. ”

"Is it really you?" Wang Ergou suddenly realized that the "Wu Jiazhi" on the other side turned out to be the disguise of Invite Yue.

"Hmmm......"

"You I met on the boat?"

"Hmm...... You big idiot. ”

"Oh my God, I didn't even notice it...... Isn't Wu Jiazhi you during the day?"

"He's real. ”

"It's not good for you to pretend to be someone, why do you want to pretend to be him?"

"When I was in Kaifeng, I had some festivals with him...... Alas, it's still not nonsense...... I'll explain it to you later......"

But Wang Ergou continued to ask: "Shipwreck! You obviously drowned together, how did you escape? I didn't find you in the underground tomb. ”

Ying Yue suddenly said solemnly: "This is also the key to my coming to talk to you!"

"What's going on?"

Invite Yue said: "The shipwreck is a huge conspiracy! And my disguise, and later pretending to be dead and disappearing, is to facilitate the investigation of this matter. ”

"Conspiracy?

"The shipwreck is a huge trap, and the mastermind behind it has two purposes, one is to want to know if there is still a chance to enter the ancient tomb, and the other is to let you, Wang Ergou, know about the existence of the ancient tomb......

He ...... Who is it?"

"I'm afraid I have to ask Peng Zirui, who went in with you, Peng Shao's helper!"
