The dark iron door was pushed open again, but this time Jindoshi was awake, gritting his teeth to support himself to his feet, as expressionless as he could.

However, Mo Chen's keen perception still allowed him to instantly perceive a certain phenomenon, that is, the great inventor's heartbeat seemed to speed up a lot all of a sudden.

This is not a difficult thing, with his current perception, not to mention that a needle landing within a hundred meters can clearly capture such an exaggeration. But as long as you pay attention, the rhythm of the breathing and the frequency of the heartbeat of the person next to him will definitely not be able to hide from him.

Mo Chen observed carefully and found that Jin Duoxi's expression was sluggish, and both eyes had fallen into their sockets slightly, looking almost dying.

These few days have been a lot of time for the great inventor, except for the meal time that he looks forward to every day, and the rest of the time is simply terrible.

Not only do I feel hungry all the time, but I often fall asleep and suddenly wake up from nightmares or hunger......

The conditions in the cell were terrible, the floor was so hard that there were no bedding and pillows, and Jin Duoxi had no idea or understand how he was able to fall asleep, perhaps because he was too tired.

But such conditions made him not rest well at all, and he always fell asleep and woke up suddenly. And this not only made his spirit worse and worse, but also made him feel back pain, pain all over his body, and he was uncomfortable anywhere.

The fact that he is looking so depressed now is the best proof of this.

And hunger itself is also an important degree, even if Jindoshi did not do any physical labor, and the prison cell did not allow him to waste energy or anything, but the fact that only one meal a day was ironclad.

After all, nutritional value and satiety are not exactly the same concept, during the great famine, how many people went to dig Guanyin soil to fill their stomachs, but after eating a full stomach of soil, did they really get through the crisis?

In the same way, Jin Duoxi has been locked up in this narrow prison, and he doesn't have the opportunity to waste his physical energy, and the energy provided by a meal a day is definitely enough-

Although human beings do not have a mechanism like hibernation, it is certainly impossible to say that staying still will consume a lot of calories or something, which is not scientific at all.

Jin Duoxi is currently purely because of the problem of satiety, even if he doesn't exercise much, he doesn't consume much, and he has not tried the experience of being allowed to eat only one meal a day for a long time.

The habits of eating, the empty stomach, tormented the great inventor for most of the day.

“……”

“……”

After being silent for a long time, Mo Chen finally found that Jin Duoxi, who had always been expressionless, had facial muscles that seemed to be twitching, and when he looked closely, he found that he was trying his best to control his eyes from running to strange places.

— for example, the tray he was holding in his hand.

Mo Chen couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly, and laughed silently, it seemed that the first stage of the previous three days had been fruitful, and hunger and food came in turn, which had already effectively consumed part of Jin Duoxi's confidence and disintegrated part of his will.

The world of disgrace is like Britain in the eighteenth century, but instead of the industrial revolution of the steam age, it has taken the path of whale oil punk.

But in other ways, it's not much different from the real world, especially when it comes to dark cuisine.

During this time, Mo Chen also had the mentality of following the local customs, and tasted some of the food of the archipelago empire, although limited to the conditions, most of them were the food of the Sokonos continent, but it was evident from the leopard in the tube.

I tried Prachett eel jelly, canned Dapokwa whale meat, and Sokonos blood sausage...... Wait, after these normal foods, he already felt that he had no appetite for the next few days.

Not to mention rat skewers, air-dried thick branch lizards and the like.

Or maybe Jin Duoxi has always been used to that kind of dark food, so he doesn't think there is anything wrong with it at all, but just let him understand that there is something that people should eat besides those dark dishes...... It will be difficult for him to go back to the pig food he used to eat.

Maybe the food that Mo Chen casually packed back, the takeout he ordered was not a delicacy, but this was also relative.

Just like for human beings, cooked food is better than raw meat, Mo Chen doesn't think it's a special delicacy, because he has been accustomed to it, but Jin Duoxi is the first time he has encountered it.

In addition, the former deliberately controlled and only gave the latter one meal a day, which made him hungry all the time...... So of course -

"Mr. Jindoshi, the three days I promised have passed...... How, what about your answer? ”

This time, Mo Chen didn't immediately lift the lid and put down the tray, and then take out the plate from the previous time, but after looking at Jin Duoxi for more than a minute, he finally opened his mouth in a good time.

This is still after the speech he spoke three days ago, and he talked to Jin Duoxi again, during which he left directly after delivering the meal, and did not answer Jin Duoxi's active inquiries and clichés without asking a word.

But this change is not always a good thing.

Although he was mentally prepared, it was undeniable that Jin Duoxi still felt that his heart was beating faster and his blood flow was faster, and he couldn't help but have dry mouth and palpitations, difficulty breathing, and didn't dare to look at the other party.

This feeling made him slightly stunned, and then he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart, and he couldn't help shouting in his heart: I know! I knew it!

In just three days, his mind and courage seemed to be worn away more than he imagined!

Then again, was it true that I was only tortured for three days? It always feels unreal, or maybe it's going to be longer, or maybe it's ten days...... That's right, that's for sure!

Panicking to find a reason or excuse for himself, Jin Duoxi took a deep breath several times, and then forced himself to insist on stating his position:

"I'm still the same, I won't give in to you."

After speaking, he stared intently at the young man opposite, wanting to interpret the changes in the other party's eyes and micro-expressions. In his opinion, there are probably only two reactions on the other side.

In fact, the follow-up should be the same, the difference is whether he will beat himself in anger or not.

Or maybe they were more sensible and took the initiative to give up first, hoping to use softer means to soften themselves. If that's the case, I haven't tried and can't bargain calmly, calmly, humbly, or arrogantly.

In this way, you can also avoid the suffering that you have to endure next...... Of course, we must absolutely adhere to the bottom line, and we can't say whatever the other party says, and too high conditions must be directly vetoed.

However, if the other party is not particularly excessive, then you might as well give in gently and tolerantly.

Jin Duoxi stared at the young man in front of him, his mind was messy, but he didn't know that when he thought like this, it was actually a manifestation of the bottom line retreating again and again.

Before, he was thinking, "Isn't it just ruthless, I want to be more ruthless than you", but now he thinks "It's best not to suffer, the other party is not too much, then I may agree to it".

“……”

“……”

There was silence again, but to Jinduo's surprise, the young man opposite did not make a threat, nor did he come up in anger and punch and kick.

He just nodded, as if he had expected it, and then turned to put the tray down, then put away the previous routine, and walked outside without looking back.

Only one sentence was left behind: "Well, this time you have three more days...... Hope you won't regret it. ”

“……？”

Jin Duoxi was slightly stunned, and he couldn't react at all for a while, only to watch Mo Chen's back walk out of the iron door in a daze, lock the door again, and then disappear from view.

Did you guess wrong? What is the other party doing here?

Not to beat or scold, not even to threaten and admonish, and not ready to restrict their own food? So where do they get the confidence that they will give in if they continue like this?

It's simply not possible, does he have any experience in this area? I don't know if it's a waste of time to go on like this?

Wait—"Well, this time you have three days left...... Hope you won't regret it. ”

What does this mean? And let yourself not regret it......

Jin Duoxi frowned slightly, he had been preparing for too long, but he found that it was all in vain, he just stood in place for a while, and he didn't wait to fill his chest and back as he used to.

It wasn't until he didn't know how long he stood that his stomach rebelled again and made a "gurgling" sound, which made him react.

As if remembering something, Jin Duoxi couldn't help but swallow his saliva, looked at the tray on the ground, and then walked over quickly and squatted down.

No matter what inexplicable idea that guy is playing, if he wants to give in voluntarily like this, then it is absolutely impossible...... Whether he's crazy or not, it's important to fill his stomach first.

But the aroma of today's food doesn't seem to be so strong, is it a change of cuisine?

Thinking about all kinds of things in his mind, Jin Duoxi reached out and lifted the lid on the tray, and then just glanced at it, and the whole person instantly turned gray. His pupils contracted suddenly, and his expression seemed to be extremely shocked.

The lid fell limply from his hand to the ground beside him, making a clear thud.

He stared at the food in the tray, gasping for air, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.

The tray is not the steaming meal before, the color and flavor are full, the soup is rich, the rice is full, and the aroma of fat comes to the face......

Rather, it is a large piece of bright red flesh that looks like the flesh is tight, has a slightly dry outer film on the surface, and is shiny and slightly moist......

In addition, there are fat and lean, and the fat part is also white or milky white, and it is also shiny, so it looks like it is a healthy pork of excellent quality.

Jin Duoxi, who was desperately gasping for air, couldn't recognize what kind of animal meat this was, but it didn't prevent him from understanding.

It's a piece of fresh raw meat that still smells of blood.

……

……

Mo Chen is not a demon, and he definitely can't think of such a vicious method.

In fact, this is a method pointed out in a book he had read in his previous life, in which an alien fugitive trained Earth monkeys.

But it's a pity that he is not a demon, but the author of that book is a demon, believing in the principle of "diligent renewal is better than a clever eunuch", and then he finally went out of the palace to buy it once, but he went back again......

Of course, Mo Chen didn't feel anything wrong with tossing Jin Duoxi like this, he could see that Jin Duoxi was already cowardly, as long as he showed a gentle attitude, the other party would probably get off the donkey down the slope.

However, he didn't want to do that, and he didn't even want to give the other party a step.

He wants to completely grind out Jin Duoxi's heart, so that the other party will become completely obedient, and he will no longer have the slightest psychology and thoughts to resist his own wishes.
