Chapter 36: Grandma, Yiyi Can't See (Second Update)
The dungeon smells strange, is half-underground and half-ground, and the environment is extremely harsh, and according to Atlantean law, only the most vicious and serious crimes are imprisoned here.
For example, killing nobles, disrespecting the noble clergy, or interrupting important rituals, participating in illegal religious activities, and even trying to overthrow the power of the Hehuo Kingdom, etc.
This kind of people have seriously violated the law and are more harmful to society, and the security bureau of the Hehuo country is equivalent to the agency exercising public security power on the earth, and has the right to arrest them, and after prosecution, those who do not have the death penalty will be detained here.
Some will be locked up for decades, and some will not even be able to step out of the cell when they come in at a young age and die with gray hair.
It happened to rain yesterday, and the dungeon floor was very damp and the smell of dried blood, and the air was muddy.
What is even more cautious is that there is no direct sunlight, and at this moment, the entire dungeon is very dim, only a few glowstone lamps in the corridor are faintly flickering.
The circuit in the wall panel was short-circuited because of the dampness and a lot of water, and two more lights were extinguished, and when I looked up, it was dark and confused.
So, it's not just the smell of dampness and blood, there's also a smell of death.
At this moment, Lot, who was wearing a guard suit, held a large set of keys in his hand and opened the iron door at the end of the corridor.
There was a creaking and screeching sound from the iron door, which instantly stimulated the nerves of the prisoners, and they jumped up one by one, lying in front of the cell door that hindered their progress, and pleaded bitterly, hoping that the other party would let them go, that they had been wronged.
Kolot, accustomed to it, turned a deaf ear to the pleadings of the prisoners, and went to the deepest part of the cell with a wicked smile.
As soon as he reached the door, Envoy Luo heard the arrogant laughter of a man with a rough voice coming from inside.
"Ridiculous, what's wrong with you thinking your husband is a 'prophet'? Isn't he just a person who teaches children to read? What's the big deal, you dare to plan to go to the palace of the capital to sue us for bending the law for personal gain, I tell you that here the William family is the king's law, and I am the king's law!!"
Immediately, Lott heard the familiar sound of the whip, but other than that, he did not hear Elan's roar, begging for mercy, and the environment seemed so silent.
Lott pushed open the cell door and saw the ugly middle-aged man with red faces, he bowed respectfully, and then said slowly.
"Master Luo, Chief Sikou, I just received a message from a servant sent by Young Master William to pass it on to you, are you? ”
Before Lot finished speaking, the angry expression of the chief of the division disappeared instantly, and he raised the whip that was about to hit Yilan again, and lowered it, and interrupted dissatisfiedly, "Say it! ”
Lott glanced at Yi Lan, who was dressed in white and was beaten with blood, and his eyes flashed with a hint of pity, and he tentatively spoke.
"According to the meaning conveyed by the servant, the young master wants you to get things done quickly, and. ”
Lott said three or four times in a row, but still didn't say anything, and the chief shook his hand in annoyance and said, "Get out! ”
Immediately, the chief of the division turned around and stared at Yilan who was paralyzed on the ground, looking at Yilan's beautiful face, and saliva instantly filled his mouth.
"What are you doing?", Yilan said with a frightened face, as if she were angry.
"What else can I do, hehe! I didn't expect the prophet's wife to be so good-looking and come to my territory, then I can't be polite, I will treat you well", said the chief of the priest and squatted down.
With a hiss, one of Elan's sleeves was forcibly ripped off by the chief of the division, revealing her white arms.
This stimulated the crazy nerves of the chief of Si Kou even more, and he was about to pounce on it, and the man shouted immediately when he saw it.
"Si Koo is long and slow!!"
The chief thought that he was gone, but he was instantly disturbed by the sudden roar, and turned around suddenly, glaring at the man with red eyes.
The man was startled by these eyes, and unconsciously took two steps back, but still gritted his teeth and said with difficulty.
"And Master William also said that you are not allowed to touch this woman, otherwise no matter who it is, you will break the third leg. ”
When the chief heard this, he suddenly collapsed like a deflated ball, and walked straight out of the cell without speaking.
Walking to the door, the chief turned his head and said with a slap on the man's face.
"Lot, next time, tell me something early. ”
Leaving such a sentence, the chief of Si Kou walked away.
With a wry smile, Lott covered his aching face and slowly walked to Yilan's side, took a few pieces of bread from the mezzanine of his clothes and put them in Yilan's hands.
Yilan waited coldly for Lott to put the bread in his hand on his hand, he didn't believe in the kindness of these people at all, and threw it aside with all the strength in his hand, and said weakly.
"I don't eat it. ”
Lott didn't get angry, but picked up the bread that had fallen on the ground again, and no matter how much soil the bread had accumulated, he stuffed it directly into his arms, and took out a few slices of bread from the other pocket, and then said.
"Trust me without malice, your daughter may be waking up, you are not hungry, she may be hungry. ”
As he spoke, Lotte raised his finger and pointed at her daughter Yiyi, who was lying on the grass in a comatose manner in the cell.
After a long time, Lott left, and before leaving, Lott had a ride and a non-ride, and also mentioned the name of Yixiu and the Golden Cicada Temple.
It is said that there lived a priest named Ikyu, who might be able to heal his blind daughter.
Elan is only twenty-five years old this year, and four years ago she married a prophet Denon as his wife, and gave birth to a lively and lovely daughter Yiyi that year.
When Yiyi was 4 years old, Yilan's husband sent Yiyi to the best prophetic school in the area.
Here is an explanation of what a prophet is, in fact, he is a person who has extensive knowledge and has a certain effect on society, but he is not the kind of person who can understand the past and the future.
From an early age, this type of person may be sent to the school of the prophets to be educated by the prophets who have registered in the country of Hehuo, so that they can become excellent prophets in the future and spread excellent knowledge to the people.
Originally, it was a sparse and ordinary thing, but Yiyi had an accident just a few days after going to school, and a son from the head of the William family actually stabbed Yiyi in the eyes with a compass.
Yiyi's father Denon is also a descendant of a nobleman, but unfortunately the family has declined, but his arrogant nature does not allow others to bully her daughter.
At that time, it was reported to the local security bureau and asked the chief of the department to arrest the "little criminals" hiding in the William family.
The plea was unsuccessful, but Denon received a punishment order from the Prophet Headmaster, ordering him to cease all his current work and cut off the monthly salary that the Prophet Headquarters of the Hellfire Nation was supposed to pay him.
That's not all, the Elan family was worried that little Yiyi would be stabbed in the eye and lose her sight, so they went to the local priest's hall and asked the pastor for treatment.
At first, they were not allowed to accept the shortage of beds or the pastor in charge of treatment when they were on a business trip, but in the end, they were driven away by the family.
It took two months to go around and around, Yiyi's eyes still haven't been properly treated, and slowly Yiyi's eyes are completely blind, and the couple has no choice but to prepare the national capital to go to the priest, and at the same time plan to kneel in front of the palace in person to ask to meet the king, hoping that the country will administer justice for their family.
But as soon as they got on the hovercar leading to the national capital, the family stopped the security department, and there was a noble man who was William Wolf, the brother of the little boy who stabbed him, and he was thinking about the beautiful Yilan.
He immediately ordered the chief of the department to put the family in a heavy dungeon, and after a few days, seeing that Yilan had not signed the agreement to sell himself, Denon was dragged away, but then the young master William was cut off until the servant he had sent to inform him.
How would they know that William Wood, who was the manipulator of all events, was abused like a pig and dog in the Golden Cicada Temple, and maybe Yilan would go crazy with joy when she knew this.
As the situation becomes more and more tense, it seems that there is nothing to do except secretly slander, and the most worried thing is her daughter Yiyi, who has been locked in this damp dungeon for more than half a month like herself, and sometimes Yilan can still see the mosquito bite wound on his body when he opens Yiyi's cuffs.
She didn't know what she would face in the future, desperate, helpless, in this dark dungeon, in Yilan's heart, cruelly drifting.
"Mom, are you there? Why did Yiyi fall asleep, Yiyi couldn't see again, didn't her eyes get better, she couldn't see her mother anymore, and it was so dark around, Yiyi was so scared. ”
Suddenly, the sound of Yiyi's crying voice came into Yilan's ears.
Yilan tiredly straightened up her aching body, forcibly grabbed the ground with her hands, moved to Yiyi's side, and grabbed the small hand that Yiyi was exploring around with a trembling hand.
"Mom is here, don't be afraid, it's Mom who didn't turn on the lights, the room is a little dark, don't worry if your eyes will be fine. ”
Yilan said so, but in her heart, she knew that her daughter would never see the light again in her life, unless the merciful fire god sent down a gift to save their family from the sea of misery and save Yiyi's blind eyes.
But how is this possible?
Just when the mother and daughter were immersed in the short-term warmth and couldn't extricate themselves, there was a sharp footstep outside the door, and then, the heavy iron door was pushed open.
Lot, who had gone and returned, said to them with a smile.
"You two, you're ready to go. ”
