Above the corridor in Room 7, there is a small night light every one meter, emitting a white glow.

There was also a small hole in the ceiling above the hallway.

The small hole is also the large mouth of the bowl.

This is an effective way to prevent people who are locked up inside from escaping through the small hole by taking advantage of the opportunity to deliver food from here.

Shen Yun had only eaten once in these days.

White rice in a bamboo tube.

White rice has no salt, no kimchi and other dishes, not even chopsticks, just plain white rice, with some water.

Like this tasteless white rice, Shen Yunzai didn't even bother to look at it in the past.

When she was first imprisoned, after seeing these white rice being sent down, she was also too lazy to look at it, and she was not in the mood to look at it.

But now, she hopes that in that small hole, there will be white rice to loosen again, no need to put salt, no kimchi and no chopsticks, just simple white rice and water, just fine.

It's a pity that until now, she was so hungry that Venus in front of her eyes could not sit steadily, and she didn't see the hole open again, and white rice was sent down.

She could only curl up in the corner behind the iron door, staring at the end of the corridor in a daze.

At the end of the corridor, there is a space of tens of square meters.

It is occupied by black holes.

To the left of the black hole is the small platform with the iron plaque.

The torch that never goes out on the small high platform emits a red lustre, like a ghost fire from hell, which makes people shudder.

After Shen Yun saw those murals and thought of the history of the Shen family that his grandfather once said, he knew what her fate was.

She has become a sacrifice to the Shen family every twelve years.

During these days, she was only fed once in order to empty her stomach pouch and make her more "clean" so that it would be easier for Shenlong to eat.

Until the strange scream that woke her up from the nightmare, Shen Yunzai refused to believe that her grandfather, who loved her so much, would throw her, a female member of the Shen family for nearly a hundred years, into Room No. 7 as a sacrifice for the dragon.

But that's true.

She was in room seven at the moment.

In her confusion, she had already heard the sound of the dragon coming.

Her eyes widened!

The fear in her eyes had never been so strong as it was now, including the desire and hope to survive.

But where can she escape?

At this time, the place where she was a thirty-meter cold corridor, with a black hole at the end of the corridor and a heavy iron gate behind it that could not be blown open with cannonballs.

She had been starved for so long that she had no strength in her body.

Shen Yun's eyes widened in horror, staring at the end of the corridor, and when his teeth trembled, there was a flash of lightning in his mind.

She finally got it.

Why is this corridor so luxuriously decorated, smooth and clean?

It turned out that this was just to make it easier for the dragon to capture the sacrifices.

It is more convenient for the dragon to easily wash away the blood stains on the ground and walls with water after eating the sacrifice.

Bang.

Bang bang.

Fear gave Shen Yun a certain amount of strength, prompting her to raise her hand, slap the thick subway door hard, and shout in her mouth: "Grandpa, grandpa, let me out!" I—I don't want to die. Grandpa, please, please spare your granddaughter. ”

She didn't see any surveillance equipment, but she knew it must be there.

Grandpa, who has regarded her as the pearl of his palm since he was a child, was in front of the monitor, silently watching her, being torn apart and eaten by the approaching dragon.

"Why, why!?"

Shen Yunzai stood up, raised his head suddenly, and asked in a hiss in the upper left corner behind the door.

She was in extreme fear, and her sixth sense was also extremely keen, so she could detect that place, there should be a monitor.

Shen Yunzai's sixth sense was not wrong, there was indeed a monitor installed in that place.

In front of the monitor connected to the monitor, Shen Mingqing stood there, without any expression on his thin face, as if he didn't see Shen Yun there, and even more like he didn't hear her angry questioning.

But Shen Cunmao, who was standing behind him, saw it and heard it.

Shen Cunmao, who usually talks and laughs freely in the face of thousands of people, is pale at this time, and cold sweat is dripping from his forehead.

He was afraid, firstly, because he was infected by Shen Yunzai's fear.

Second, from inside the speaker, I also heard the faint, terrible scream.

He was fifty-three years old, but it was the first time he had seen the scene in room seven.

Just as, Shen Cunmao didn't understand at all why his father wanted him to see this.

Shouldn't he wait until he succeeds to the throne as the head of the Shen family in Seoul before he can see these things and know certain things?

Tick.

Just when Shen Yunzai, who was in the monitor, was slowly slumped on the ground along the iron door in despair, a drop of cold sweat finally dripped from Shen Cun's jaw and landed on the wooden floor, and it could make a harsh sound.

Shen Mingqing finally spoke, and he didn't look back: "Cunmao, aren't you very strange, why should I let you see the things in room No. 7 in advance when you haven't inherited my position yet?" ”

"Yes, yes, Father. I do, I do. ”

Shen Cunmao immediately bent down and bowed, and replied in a somewhat hoarse tone.

"Because I don't think I'll live long."

Shen Mingqing was silent for a moment before he said softly.

Shen Cunmao's body trembled suddenly, and he raised his head in shock: "Father, you can live a hundred years-"

Shen Mingqing raised his hand and interrupted his words: "Everyone hopes to live a hundred years old, or even immortal. But since ancient times, how many people have lived a long life? Who can live forever? In fact, we all know that birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws. As long as you are a normal person, then you will never be able to escape this natural law. ”

Shen Cunmao is worthy of being the next generation of the head of the Shen family in Seoul, this IQ is indeed high enough, and he immediately heard a different meaning from Shen Mingqing's words.

But he was still a little unsure, so he asked cautiously: "Father, do you say that there are people in this world who violate the laws of nature?" ”

Shen Mingqing seemed to laugh, and said lightly: "For thousands of years, haven't the men of the Shen family never conformed to the natural laws that should have existed in that matter?" ”

Shen Cun was stunned.

Then I understood.

Shen Mingqing said that the men of the Shen family violated the laws of nature in that matter, and they were worth passing on their ancestry, they were much larger than ordinary people, and their kidney function was also abnormally strong.

How strong is it?

For thousands of years, no one has betrayed the women around the men of the Shen family in Seoul.

Just like in the days of Tsarist Russia, with the 28.5 centimeter Rasp, he not only fornicated with the royal family, but also slept with almost all the noblewomen of Moscow at that time, and made them fascinated and even crazy.

But the men of the Shen family are much more low-key than that old man, and they have never publicized everywhere how big their equipment is and how good they are.

The ancestors of the Shen family were just refugees who fled from the mainland to the south, why did they gain the favor of the princess and create a big family from then on, known as the first in Seoul, and prosper forever?

Isn't this against the laws of nature?

"Father, are you saying that the legend of the ancestors of the Shen family is true?"

Shen Cunmao raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead and asked carefully.

"That's what I doubted when I was your age."

Shen Mingqing slowly turned sideways and looked at his son: "After I became the head of the family, I realized that some things really did not conform to the laws of nature." When you become the head of the house, you can open the safe in my study. You can also go to room No. 7 to clean up after the third day of March every year to see the holy plaque that has been enshrined for thousands of years. ”

The Shen family has a holy tablet, which is enshrined next to the black hole in room seven, and Shen Cunmao knows.

He also knew that the safe in his father's study contained many secrets that only the head of the family was qualified to see.

But he didn't know, why did his father take such a thing as cleaning so seriously?

He opened his mouth and was about to ask, but the corner of his eye swept over his face from Shen Yun in the monitor—his face turned pale.

He finally understood why his father solemnly said that he was cleaning.

After the dragon eats Shen Yunzai, won't it splash blood all over the corridor?

It was the holy land of the Shen family's fortune, of course, it couldn't be soiled by dirty blood, and it had to be cleaned with a high-pressure water gun or something.

It's no wonder that my father goes to room No. 7 every year after the third day of the third month of March.

It turned out that he had gone in to clean up.

Every twelve years, on the third day of the third month of the third month, a child of the Shen family will be sent in and become a sacrifice of the divine dragon.

Similarly, on the third day of the third month of March every year, the head of the Shen family would go to clean up some pigs and sheep and other things that were put in every month after the third day of the third month of March last year, and the blood that was splashed when they were devoured by the divine dragon.

The one who is about to be eaten by the divine dragon this time is Shen Yunzai!

Today is not the third day of the third month of March, but it must be the "Year of Peace" for the children of the Shen family, and every month they have to pay tribute to the dragon.

Therefore, the divine dragon hidden in the black hole will come today as promised.

"It's fate. You have to remember that when anyone gets something, they have to give something. ”

Shen Mingqing walked up to his son and gently patted him on the shoulder.

"Yes, yes. Father, I must take your words to heart. ”

Shen Cunmao bent down deeply, and after bowing to his father, he couldn't help but ask: "But my son is stupid, and I still don't understand, why he has not made a big mistake in less than twelve years-I think, there is still some credit to Yun Zai, to pay tribute to the dragon." ”

Without waiting for Shen Mingqing to say anything, Shen Cunmao said again: "Is it just because she ignores the interests of the entire Shen family for the sake of love?" ”

Shen Mingqing was silent for a moment before he said slowly: "I actually support the fact that Yun Zai and Prince Duan are in love. If it was just this matter, for the sake of her loving him so much, even if I wanted to fight for the interests of the Shen family, I would not betray her love. No, put her in room seven. ”

"Huh?"

Shen Cunmao was taken aback, looked up at his father, and asked anxiously: "Father, what is the reason why you are willing to give the only little princess of the Shen family who was finally born in the past hundred years to pay tribute to the Divine Dragon?" ”

"That's a good question."

Shen Mingqing suddenly smiled and said, "Before I answer your question, I want to correct a little bit of the inherent views of all of you. ”

"Father, please."

"Yun Zai is not the only woman in the Shen family in the past hundred years."

"Huh?"

Shen Cunmao was taken aback again and blurted out, "The legend is fake?" Ah, no, I mean, the legend is wrong? In fact, in our family, there are other descendant girls, outside? ”

Shen Mingqing shook his head: "No." ”

Shen Cunmao was stunned, and he really couldn't understand what his father was going to say.

Shen Mingqing took a deep breath before he said slowly: "I said that Yun Zai is not the only woman in the Shen family in the past hundred years, because she is the only woman in the Shen family in Seoul for thousands of years. ”
