Chapter 12 Humans or Ghosts?
"You said the master was in a bad mood so he didn't want to see me? No, if you go again, you will say that Ewinx is awake, and I believe that the master's mood will improve greatly after hearing the news. β
"I won't go, when the master is in a bad mood, if I accidentally touch the master's moldy head, I will be punished!"
"No, you have to go to the master, this matter is very important, and you can't delay it for a moment, if something happens, you and I can't afford it."
"You don't scare me, even if you kill me, you won't go, you have to go yourself."
"Diona, are you going or not?" The doctor was clearly angered by his impatience, and the conversation with the slave girl was getting louder and louder, showing signs of getting out of control.
It's a pity that with his status and that of a slave girl, he doesn't have the qualifications to "pretend" in front of Diona at all, which can be seen from Diona's expression of reluctance to bird him.
"Why are you like this, I said I wouldn't go if I didn't go."
"You ......"
"What are you two arguing about? Don't know what this place is? Come, take the two slaves out, and give them five lashes each. β
Suddenly, hearing Quintus's words of extreme dissatisfaction and anger, even the doctor instantly forgot everything as if he had been splashed with a bucket of ice water, and the only thing in his mind was the tragic scene of himself being tied to a stake and whipped five times by the guards, and his entire back was bloody.
The two of them immediately fell to their knees, not even daring to breathe, burying their heads deep in their chests, and not daring to refute at all.
Just as the four guards pulled up the two slaves and dragged them to the training ground to prepare for punishment, Ludia also arrived.
"Quintus, I think I heard them talk about Ewinks just now, so I might as well hear the doctor tell me before punishing them."
Of course, the weight of his wife's words was far higher than that of any slave, especially when he heard the already somewhat unfamiliar name of Juwinx, and the anger in his heart was instantly extinguished by curiosity.
Nodding at the doctor, he said, "Say, what is the reason why you want to see me, if you can bring me some good news, this punishment will be spared, otherwise you will be whipped five more times!" β
"It's the master, Yuwinks woke up, he finally woke up just now!"
"Wake up, wake up, is a slave the reason you disturb my rest and affect my mood? Come on, pull him down and give me ten lashes! β
"No, master, he is not only awake, but he is also able to wake up after twelve days in a coma, he has a very clear consciousness and can speak very clear and complete words, I have been in this business for most of my life, and I have seen countless cases of this kind until now, but what happened to Yuwinks is absolutely the only thing I have seen in my life, this can no longer be described as a miracle."
"Also, his eyes are simply terrifying, they can make children cry at night, what terrifying eyes are they I just looked at it, I'm afraid that in this life, even if I dream in a dream, I will be scared to wake up, you better go and take a look, I believe that only your experience and wisdom can make the most appropriate evaluation."
As the master of the gladiator training grounds, Quintus grew up and saw so many corpses and patients, if the doctor's words were true, then this matter was a bit extraordinary.
After only a moment of contemplation, Quintus strode towards the medical room with a huge expression of curiosity and shock.
......
Marita was frightened after inadvertently seeing Li Siwu's eyes like a devil, in this world of worshipping gods and worshipping ghosts, the current Li Siwu is a humanoid creature possessed by the devil in Marita's opinion, not only evil but also extremely powerful.
Marita didn't turn around and run away immediately, which was already commendable, so until now she didn't complete the task given to her by the doctor, holding the kettle with both hands, but she didn't dare to get close at all, and sent the water that was tantamount to a life-saving sweet spring to Li Siwu's mouth.
Of course, Li Siwu didn't know why the other party leaked such a frightened look, as if he had seen a ghost, especially after he tried his best to stretch out his arm to ask the other party for water, the female slave ran directly to the door like a frightened rabbit, which made Li Siwu have to swallow the words that came to his mouth again.
He really didn't dare to guarantee that if he dared to say it, this slave girl would leave here screaming immediately, if this kind of thing really happened, he wouldn't want to drink water, and his throat was like being scorched by flames at the moment, and he really needed water.
"Marita, what are you standing here for?"
"Ahh ......β
"Marita! Marita! You calm me down, what the hell is going on that scares you so much? β
Marita, who was frightened by Quintus's sudden words, explained with a frightened and somewhat grieved expression after seeing the master's face: "I'm sorry master, I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it, please punish the master." β
Marita, the leader of the slave girls of Onomamus's wife, was different from the other slaves, and her status and status were not enough, so that she was punished by her master for this little thing.
"I'm here to see Juwinks, is he really awake?"
"Yes master, he did wake up and I was about to feed him some water, but... But... But his eyes were so scary that I didn't dare to approach them. β
Knowing the changes in Li Siwu's eyes from the doctor and Marita successively aroused Quintus's curiosity, he couldn't wait to see the real situation immediately.
Driven by this curiosity, Quintus immediately walked into the medical room without wanting to pay attention to Marita, and he could already see Li Siwu deliberately turning his head to look at his eyes a few meters away from Li Siwu's hospital bed.
At this glance, even the well-informed Quintus couldn't help but be startled, what kind of eyes are these, black and white are completely distinct, and under the backdrop of the few whites of the eyes, the huge black eyes with no pupils at all are like black holes, while firmly attracting all his mind, exuding a terrifying aura like a devil.
It'sβit's not something humans should have at all, no wonder the doctor reacts that way, no wonder Marita is so horrified!
Forcibly inhaling a breath of cold air, trying to calm down his turbulent mind, he tentatively shouted Li Siwu's name: "Yuwinks? β
"It's the master."
After spitting out these three words clearly, Li Siwu also tried all the remaining strength in his body, struggling to get up and meet Quintus.
It was also because of his eyes that Quintus was so frightened that he only dared to look from a distance for a while, but he didn't dare to close the distance between him and Li Siwu even one centimeter.
After struggling violently for a while, with Li Siwu's current situation, where can he get up? It seems that after losing the last trace of strength in his body, Li Siwu is still lying on the bed, breathing violently, and saying with a face full of apology and self-blame:
"I'm sorry master, please forgive me for my rudeness, I really don't have the strength to get up and see you now!"
Except for Li Siwu's terrifying eyes, everything he has shown from the beginning to the present has been so decent, and all the facts have proved that the person in front of him is a patient who has just struggled from the brink of death to the world, and is not a devil as imagined.
This reassured Quintus!
