Chapter 205: Put to Death
A voice came overhead.
The small window on the stone wall that had been opened just now opened again, and a deliberately low voice was faintly heard, "Let's see if they are dead?" ”
Yun Moxi's heart moved, this voice seemed familiar but he couldn't remember who it was for a while, although the voice was very slight, but it was still heard clearly in the silent stone house.
Probably the people above have never been down there to experience it themselves, so they don't know that the slightest sound from above can be transmitted below.
Zhao Ting hurriedly hugged Yun Moxi, and the two closed their eyes and fell together against the wall.
The person above poked his head out and looked down, maybe it was too dark below to see clearly, and finally threw a torch down, which landed right at the feet of the two of them.
Probably seeing the two of them fall to the ground and not reacting, they were buried by snakes around them.
"It's not moving, it should be dead." The shrill voice that called itself Jia Gui said.
"Don't, you must!" The voice that ordered just now was deliberately low, and it was very cautious.
"There is no way that so many poisonous snakes are still alive." Jia Gui's voice seemed to be a little embarrassed.
"If they hadn't died, none of us would have lived. Do you still want to say should? The voice raised its tone with some anger.
Jia Gui sounded obviously afraid of the man, and hurriedly said, "I understand that so many poisonous snakes must be seriously injured even if they don't die. There is only one exit from the top of this stone house, and they can't escape. If you really don't feel at ease, you will lock them up and starve them for a few days, and if you are seriously injured and starved, you will definitely die. ”
"The Yun family's shadow guards have already entered the hall and are looking for them, and the people here can't beat them, let alone alarm the government. They saw people enter your Ruyi Building, and now they don't see people going out, they will dig three feet into the ground and find people, so you can guarantee that they can't find this mechanism? The voice said impatiently, but it was very thoughtful.
Yun Moxi and Zhao Ting's hearts moved, it must have been Yun Yueqi waiting outside for a long time, and when they arrived at the appointment, they saw that they hadn't gone out to notice anything wrong, so they brought people to rush in to look for it, but they hadn't found it yet.
"That'...... Only the gates were opened. Jia Gui said with some reluctance, this last mechanism is constantly opened, and it will only be used as a last resort, so he was reluctant. But thinking that what the man said was not unreasonable, it was better to deal with this matter as soon as possible. Although it is troublesome, it is only prudent.
"Then don't do it!" The voice commanded hatefully, "You can handle the matter here, solve it quickly, and make sure they die." ”
"Yes! Let's go to the hall and drag them out first, and talk perfunctorily for a long time, and it is estimated that the following two will be about the same. Jia Gui's tone was very respectful and obedient.
As the two spoke, the small window slammed shut again.
"Open the gates? What do you mean? Yun Moxi looked up at Zhao Ting, his face was solemn.
The two of them turned their heads to look at the four holes in the wall.
The bad feeling was even stronger than just now.
Sure enough, it didn't take long to hear a faint rumbling sound from the walls, and the four walls that shook were a little loud.
The two stood up with each other, and secretly screamed in their hearts that it was not good.
Before I could think about how to deal with it, I heard four loud bangs, and four torrents of torrents erupted from the holes in the wall.
Although these holes cannot be passed through by humans, they are not small. At this time, the flood gushed out at the same time very quickly, and the stone house was not very large, and many dead snakes were piled up. It didn't take long to submerge the calves of the two.
"They want to drown us!" Yun Moxi looked up and saw that the stone house was more than ten zhang high.
I was a little anxious, and I shuddered at the thought of soaking in the water with these dead snakes.
Zhao Ting saw that her face was pale, and although he was helpless, he had to stabilize his mind. took her hand and comforted softly: "Don't worry, I'm here!" ”
"But I don't know how to water." She said pitifully.
"Just remember to slide your hands and feet naturally and push up the water. I'll hold you by the waist and float you up. Remember not to panic, otherwise the two of them will only have to sink. He calmly confessed, but in fact, he didn't know the bottom of his heart. Even if the two of them can float up, there is nowhere to go when they get to the top. If Yun Yueqi can't be found in time, he will only be drowned.
But what they need most at this moment is to deal with it calmly, and seeing that the water is slowly rising, the two of them gradually calmed down.
Zhao Ting looked at the small window near the top, it was opened when Jia Gui was talking just now, and the sound should be made of iron plates, but since it can be opened, there must be a place for the interface.
Secretly decided to try to break through when the water floated up, although the window was not enough to get out, at least it could disperse the current, as long as there was a gap at the top, and the two of them would not drown immediately.
Procrastining time and waiting for an opportunity is what the two of them are thinking about at the moment.
The water gradually spread to his chest.
"Are you afraid?" Zhao Ting hugged her and asked in a low voice.
"Hmm!" She nodded, she couldn't pretend to be strong at this time, and the power on Zhao Ting's arm gave her a little more strength and courage.
She was afraid not because she would die, but because she was reluctant to do so. If he dies here for no reason, he will be in pain.
His poison and hatred, the fact that he could no longer accompany him on the rest of the road, and who could not help him regain everything, made her feel a little dead at the thought of this.
Thinking about all the times she had with him, she was really reluctant to die like this, and the infinite regret in her heart made her feel scared and scared.
For Zhao Ting, turning her head to look at his pale but firm and bright eyes, she was full of guilt, and this guilt made her scared.
I'm afraid that I won't be able to repay this love in this life, and Da Song still needs him. If he dies here, it will not only be a loss to Da Song, although his grandfather will not be able to explain it.
Will my grandfather, the only relative, be saddened by his death?
As the water spread upwards, she felt a chill in her heart as she thought about it.
Zhao Ting was very calm.
The person who kills on the battlefield is no longer afraid of life and death, and after countless trials and struggles on the edge of life and death, he has become accustomed to the days of licking blood from the knife edge.
Life is nothing more than this, I have seen too many bloody killings, and I will die in the end.
So the fear was a strange thing to him.
Early death and late death, he is indifferent.
What's more, if he can die with his beloved at this moment, he actually has a trace of joy when he thinks of this.
Although it was a selfish and unavoidable thought, he would rather die than be in danger of her, but ...... If there is no way to retreat, then he suddenly feels very satisfied with this ending.
The water spilled to Yun Moxi's nose, she tiptoed and closed her mouth, only looking at Zhao Ting with a pair of big eyes.
His eyes were full of reluctance, deep regret and the meaning of the final goodbye.
Zhao Ting stroked her face in the water and said firmly: "Trust me!" Relax, you'll be fine! There was also a hint of goodbye in his eyes.
Lifted her up, and finally the water completely submerged the two of them.
