Chapter 34, The Grave Keeper (14th Watch)
Bang dang~~ The crisp sound of chain collision clearly reached everyone's ears, and the huge grassland was quiet at this moment, whether it was a soldier or a prisoner, whether it was an iron prison or a female prison, thousands of pairs of eyes were fixed on the thin figure.
Di Cheng and Yang Jing also looked eastward, describing him as withered, yellow-skinned, and looking like a sloppy old man asking for food, and the chains of * also affected his movements, and he walked with a little difficulty. Only a pair of eyes are as sharp as electricity, and the forest is as cold as ice, but whenever they are swept by these eyes, a little chill can't help but appear in the depths of their hearts.
"That person's name is Diao Zun, and he is one of the seven grave guards on death row, don't look at his size is not very prominent, but his strength is extremely strong. Shalang once tried to provoke him, but in the end he was almost torn alive. Brother Cheng, if you fight him in the future, I mean if, be careful of his hands. There was fear in the depths of Wang Zhong's eyes, in fact, not only him, but most people couldn't help but take a breath when they saw Diao Zun.
"Hands?" Di Cheng squinted, but the distance between the two sides was too far, and the hands seemed to be hidden in the cuffs, making it difficult to see the difference. "What happened to his hand?"
"That's not a human hand!" A prisoner in the back said in a deep voice.
"Not manpower? What do you mean? ”
Wang Zhongdao: "Diao Zun's strength is all on those hands, and his hands have lost their shape in thousands of tempers, but the strength is extremely terrifying. ”
"Can you untie it for me?" After scanning the audience with his cold eyes, he squinted indifferently at the officers beside him.
"Untie him." The officer signaled to the soldiers, and immediately four soldiers brought the muzzle of their guns close to Diao Zun, held him down, and the soldier with the key carefully opened it for him.
The heads of the houses in the iron prison are allowed to take off the chains, as long as they are in their own compounds, they can move freely. Death row is very different, where everyone from the grave keeper to the prisoner must be chained. Only on the days of the month when the wind is released can you have the opportunity to untie the chains, which is easy and easy.
As Diao Zun's chains were restrained, a large number of prisoners slowly walked out and removed the chains one by one under the lock of the machine guns.
"I heard that the iron supervisor has changed how many family heads?" The feeling of losing restraint made Diao Zun couldn't help but breathe deeply and stretched his body hard.
"Changed six." The cold-faced officer replied indifferently.
"Nearly half, hehe, it must have been a wonderful day, the screams were heard very clearly even on our death row. That today...... Is it okay to ......" A faint strange smile appeared on Diao Zun's cold face.
"Diao Zun, let me remind you, it's okay to play, but don't go too far, especially today, otherwise you will be the one who suffers." The officer said in a stiff tone.
Diao Zun didn't say a word, motioned to the prisoners behind him, and walked to the demarcated area not far away. After him, a large number of prisoners came out of the death row one after another, more than 500 people, but the rest of the grave guards were never seen again.
"What about the other grave keepers?" Di Cheng asked, starting with Diao Zun, he had been paying close attention to the prisoners who had come out, looking for the rest of the grave guards. But until the end, he never found anyone who gave him the same feeling as Diao Zun.
"The grave keepers don't all come out, especially people like the crows, who haven't been seen for more than a year. There are three windbreak times a month, but there are only one or two grave guards on death row at a time, and sometimes none of them come out, and the rest of the grave guards and the rest of the strong death row inmates usually do not appear. ”
"What are they doing on death row? It's not so comfortable to stay in such a small place for more than a year. Di Cheng's brows furrowed slightly, could it be that there were any secrets in the death prison? What kind of crow hasn't appeared for more than a year, and how long has it been since the nine-headed monk Xue Ying appeared? Isn't it...... Something went wrong?
Led by the head of their respective households, the prisoners sat down one after another, breathing in the air outside the prison area and enjoying a rare tranquility.
Except for the heavily armed soldiers walking back and forth, there was no noisy fighting on the meadow.
Di Cheng didn't ask too much, he could feel that the situation at this time was like the calm before the storm, and there must be something tragic that would soon appear in front of him.
Sure enough, in this slightly oppressive silence lasted less than half an hour, a noisy dog barking came from the city gate, and then more than 20 four-meter-long square iron cages were carried up by the soldiers and placed in the center of the grassland, enclosing a vast square area.
The iron cage is welded with thumb-thick iron rods, which looks very strong, and the pitch-black color also gives people visual oppression. And the previous barking of dogs came from these wide iron cages, each of which contained two or three tall and fierce wolf dogs, each grinning and manic, and their eyes were scarlet, looking extremely mad!
"Hey the dogs?" Di Cheng suddenly thought of the word that the prisoners often mentioned.
Wang Zhong and the others looked at those dogs with scarlet eyes full of resentment and fear, it was these hateful animals that created the biggest nightmare for more than 5,000 kinds of prisoners in the entire Chixiang Prison!
Dogs eat people! Eat the living!
It can be said that the formulation of all the rules of Chixiang Prison is related to this dog eating people. As long as you don't follow the prescribed order, the phrase "feed the dog" will inevitably make you tremble, and there is no intention of resisting.
It is also this rule of "dogs eat living people" that has suppressed more than 5,000 bloody felons in the entire iron prison and maintained order here.
Wang Zhong's face turned pale and said: "The three superintendents will meet once every ten days, and hold a scuffle during the period to hand in the task. The losers and the seriously injured were thrown into dog cages and eaten alive in front of all the prisoners. ”
The breathing of the thousands of prisoners began to be a little rapid, especially those in the other compounds who had already been scheduled to participate in the melee today, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, and their eyes could not hide the look of horror, and above the panic was a gradual heart-stopping fierceness.
Who wants to feed the dogs? Who wants their body to be eaten alive by a dog? Don't want to! No! You must not let your body be gnawed off by those animals!
If you want to live, there is only one possibility - kill the other party, no matter what method you use, kill the other party!
Kill!
The thin but bloody words exploded in the minds of all those who were scheduled to fight, and reverberated like thunder for a long time.
Ferociousness and cruelty build up inside their hungry bodies, piercing through their flesh and skin.
The eyes of nearly a hundred prospective prisoners turned blood-red from bloodshot, and their withered yellow cheeks became more and more hideous and terrifying from madness, just like a wild wolf that had been hungry for too long suddenly smelled flesh.
The whole square was in a suffocating depression and blood, and the air was only echoed by the barking of vicious dogs and the heavy breathing of the crowd!
An officer with a wolfdog on a trail walked to the center of the field and shouted with a bullhorn. "Due to the delay of the reunion of the three prisons for half a month, and the number of people in our Chixiang Prison has increased greatly this year, the number of participants in this melee competition has been set from the original 20 to 100! The final number of defeats was selected as fifty.
The rest of the rules remain the same, and those who perform well will also be rewarded very highly, so that you can enjoy the treatment that the winner deserves. As for the losers, then all you can say is sorry. His indifferent eyes scanned the audience and snorted: "There are seventy iron prisoners, twenty female prisoners, and ten death prisoners." Below, the personnel of each prison participating in the battle are listed. ”
As the words fell, there was a slight noise and confusion among the prisoners, and the intended personnel got up one after another, clenched their fists, clenched their teeth, and walked towards the field like restless beasts. No one escaped because they were afraid, not because they didn't want to, but because they didn't dare, and it was not uncommon for them to go crazy and escape because they couldn't stand this oppressive atmosphere, but the result was ...... Chixiang Prison has never lacked criminal law measures, and those who do wrong things are bound to be tortured like hell.
Soon, the participants of each prison gathered in the center of the venue, keeping a certain distance from each other, looking at the people around them with crazy and vigilant eyes, and the momentum of the whole body was raised to the strongest peak, ready to rush out at any time and tear the opponent apart.
But when the officers checked to see if there were enough people, they found that there were six people missing.
"Looks like someone isn't very obedient." The officer's face gradually became gloomy, and he scolded angrily: "All the heads of the family will check the participants and drag out the people who have not come out!" ”
