After a violent cough, Chen Ziyang felt as if he had spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, and suddenly felt that his chest cavity was much more transparent, and the injuries from being beaten by the black monster seemed to have recovered a lot, and his breathing felt smoother.

Hearing some noisy voices around him, Chen Ziyang opened his eyes and looked left and right. The first thing he saw was still a bright fire, which gave him the illusion that everything that had happened in that black space before was a dream, and that he had just woken up from a coma caused by falling down with Li Bojian.

So Chen Ziyang hurriedly looked left and right, and he saw Li Bojian lying there not far from him, but then Chen Ziyang saw that Li Bojian's hands were tied behind his back, and her feet were also tied together. At this moment, Chen Ziyang realized that everything he had experienced before was not a dream, but a real thing.

Seeing Li Bojian being tied, Chen Ziyang hurriedly moved his hands and feet, but he found that he was also trapped, tied in the same way as Li Bojian, his hands were also tied behind his back, and his feet were tied together. After a few violent struggles, Chen Ziyang gave up.

The two people are tied to the kind of plastic easy-to-pull rope lock, although this kind of rope is relatively thin, and at the same time it is made of plastic, but this kind of rope is very strong, and it is impossible for ordinary people to break free without tools.

Immediately afterwards, on the other side of the fire, there were the voices of several people whispering, and it was this sound that woke Chen Ziyang up just now. Although he didn't know what the identities of those people were, Chen Ziyang knew that they shouldn't be friends, otherwise he and Li Bojian wouldn't be tied up like this. Those people were hiding outside the range of the firelight, and Chen Ziyang couldn't see their numbers and faces clearly.

It may be that Chen Ziyang's violent struggle just now attracted the attention of those people, and after these people whispered a few words, one of them turned on the flashlight and shone it on Chen Ziyang. The bright flashlight shone directly on Chen Ziyang's face, and he couldn't even open his eyes, so he could only close his eyes vigorously to prevent the strong light from causing damage to his eyes.

The person with the flashlight bypassed the fire and walked to Chen Ziyang in a few steps and squatted down, but when this person was doing this series of actions, he still shone the flashlight on Chen Ziyang's face, as if he was deliberately playing with Chen Ziyang.

"Mr. Chen, let's meet again." After this person finished speaking, he turned off the flashlight, and it took a while for Chen Ziyang to be able to see what was in front of him clearly. When his eyes were closed, Chen Ziyang felt that this person's voice was very familiar, and he also knew that his surname was Chen, so it seemed that he should also be a person he had dealt with.

After his eyes regained his vision, Chen Ziyang realized that the person squatting in front of him was really an old acquaintance. And this person himself will never forget for the rest of his life, it is the same instructor Liu who interrogated him when he was locked up in a prison in Jiangxi Province before.

The reason why Chen Ziyang was able to remember him firmly, in addition to the fact that this Instructor Liu looked a little special and looked like a mixed-race child, the most important thing was that during the more than a year that he was locked up in prison and tortured, this Instructor Liu was the only person he had ever seen.

"It's you! The surname is Liu, you are still alive! Chen Ziyang said viciously. Hearing Chen Ziyang's unkind words, this Instructor Liu smiled, stared at Chen Ziyang for a while, suddenly shook out his right hand, and slapped Chen Ziyang with a loud backhand, which made Chen Ziyang's right ear ring.

After licking the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, Chen Ziyang spit out a mouthful of bloody spit on Instructor Liu's face, and then stared at him with an unyielding gaze. Instructor Liu took out a tissue from his pocket, wiped the saliva on his face, and still showed a smile to Chen Ziyang, and then he slapped Chen Ziyang with his backhand again.

After receiving the second slap, Chen Ziyang felt a burning pain in his cheeks, and then he saw that Instructor Liu was wearing a diamond ring on his right hand, and the diamond of the diamond ring was still bloodshot. Only then did Chen Ziyang understand that the kid slapped himself twice, and this diamond ring should have drawn two blood marks on his face.

Forget it, it's useless to be stubborn now, it will only make you suffer more, if this kid slaps himself hard, he won't scratch his face. Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang tilted his head back and stared at Instructor Liu with a disdainful look.

Seeing Chen Ziyang's reaction, Instructor Liu seemed to be very satisfied. So, after smiling again, he got up and walked over to the fire, stretched out his hand to roast the fire, and at the same time bent down and took a sauté pan from a pot above the fire and stirred it a few times.

The smell of stewed meat wafted out of the pot, and Chen Ziyang found that there was a simple shelf composed of three pieces of wood sandwiched next to the bonfire, and a rope was hanging from the shelf, and a marching pot was tied under the rope, and the bottom of the pot was just hanging above the bonfire flames, and from time to time there were a few blisters in the pot, which seemed to have been open for a while, and there should be some meat stewed inside.

Smelling the aroma of this stew, Chen Ziyang felt his stomach gurgling. Saliva kept flowing from the cheeks into the mouth, swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and Chen Ziyang still didn't speak there.

"Hungry, I told you before, follow us to ensure your glory and wealth, but you kid doesn't know how to lift, otherwise you wouldn't have suffered so much." Instructor Liu said slowly while stirring the pot.

"Eating a stew is called glory and wealth, and you usually have a hard time. If you kneel down and beg me, maybe I will consider your proposal, and now that you are doing this to me, do you think I will still help you. Although Chen Ziyang knew that now was not the time to be reckless, and provoking them would only make him suffer more, but Chen Ziyang really couldn't help it, and he couldn't help it when he saw this Instructor Liu.

This Instructor Liu seems to have a habit, whether he is angry or happy, he likes to smile, in Chen Ziyang's opinion, this kid is simply a smiling tiger. It may be that he was also tired from the two slaps just now, but Instructor Liu did not slap Chen Ziyang again this time, but was still slowly stirring the stew in the pot there.

"Maybe what you said has some truth, I didn't have a way to let you help us do this, but now it's different, I have the means to threaten you, and I'm not afraid that you won't obediently comply." After saying this, Instructor Liu glanced at Li Bojian, who was lying not far from Chen Ziyang, from the corner of his eye.

Seeing Instructor Liu's action, Chen Ziyang understood, it turned out that this Instructor Liu wanted to threaten himself with Li Bojian, so Chen Ziyang pretended to be casual and said: "The two of us just have some deals, and they don't have anything to do with it at all, you want to use her to threaten me, you have the wrong idea." ”

Although Chen Ziyang said this, his heart also beat a drum. Chen Ziyang also didn't know if this Instructor Liu really threatened him with Li Bojian, whether he would listen to him.

"Okay, I'd like to see if you're stubborn, or if you really don't care about this woman." After saying this, Instructor Liu beckoned to the shadows, and immediately after, two burly people walked out of the shadows and walked to the side of the fire.

These two people are very tall, they should be above 1.85 meters, and these two people are very strong, with a burly figure that can only be found in perennial fitness exercises.

Seeing these two people, Chen Ziyang suddenly remembered that when he was in the prison in Jiangxi Province, he was sandwiched in front of Instructor Liu by two taller people, it seems that these two people are the ones who are holding themselves in prison, these three people should be in a group, and they are together all year round.

One of them walked up to Li Bojian's side, stretched out his hand, grabbed Li Bojian's collar and lifted her up. Li Bojian, who is relatively slender, is like a chicken in this person's hands.

It may be that this action was too rude, Li Bojian woke up from the coma at once, although she didn't understand what was happening now, but she also realized something, Li Bojian did not shout, but looked at Chen Ziyang with a pitiful look. The man carrying Li Bojian took out a dagger with his other hand and pressed it against Li Bojian's face.

"My request is not too much, the location of this tomb was told to you by Lao Lu next door, then you should know that when Lao Lu came here, there was a gem hidden here. As long as you find this gem and give it to me, I will let you two go safely, or this woman will become ugly. Instructor Liu still said unhurriedly.

"As I said, I have nothing to do with her at all, you can do to her as you like." Chen Ziyang said emotionlessly.

Hearing Chen Ziyang's words, Li Bojian's eyes showed a trace of disappointment, tears instantly secreted from Li Bojian's tear glands, swirling in her eye sockets, and even a tear dripped from one of the corners of Li Bojian's eyes.

"Okay, let's give it a try." After saying this, Instructor Liu threw down the frying spoon in his hand and glanced at the person who was holding Li Bojian.

The person who grabbed Li Bojian raised the dagger high and was about to cut it at Li Bojian's face. Just when the dagger in this person's hand was just raised to the highest point and was about to slash downward, Chen Ziyang subconsciously shouted: "Wait, I promise you." ”

Hearing Chen Ziyang's words, Instructor Liu raised his head and laughed. "I thought you could hold back, but that's what you're capable of. It's good to agree, the two of you can suffer a lot less, which is good for all of us. ”

After getting Instructor Liu's permission, after the people who grabbed Li Bojian threw Li Bojian on the ground, he walked into the shadows with another person. Seeing that these people didn't do anything to Li Bojian, Chen Ziyang was also relieved, but when he calmed down, he found that something was wrong with this matter.

Lao Lu once told himself that he definitely didn't tell the people who were detaining the two people about the gems, so how did this Instructor Liu know about the gems? When Lao Lu got the gem, he didn't let the second person see it at all.

Even if Instructor Liu knew that there was a gem in this tomb, how did they know about the conversation between themselves and Lao Lu? After thinking about it, Chen Ziyang felt that there was only one answer that was more reasonable, that is, when Lao Lu was using the rat hole to talk to him, the conversation between the two of them was monitored by the prison people.

If this is the case, it is really a foot high, and the magic is a foot high, I can't imagine that Lao Lu tried his best to dig out a mouse hole, just to prevent the conversation between the two people from being overheard, but he still fell into their trap. These people are really patient, they can detain and torture Lao Lu for fifteen years, and they have been trying their best to get the information in Lao Lu's hands, and they have unintentionally helped them.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang felt that there was a loophole in his thoughts, if these people eavesdropped on the conversation between him and Lao Lu, then that means they should know the location of the diamond. But these people are now trying so hard to threaten themselves, and it is clear that they have no idea where the diamonds are.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang's eyes rolled, and he felt that he could use the environment around the gem to deal with them, but after all, he hadn't seen the deep hole made by the gem with his own eyes, so it was not easy to say anything now, so it was better to wait until he got to the place to take a look.

After all, Chen Ziyang felt that it was impossible for these people to let the two of them leave safely after getting the diamond, and it was very likely that he and Li Bojian would end up with the same fate as Lao Lu's apprentice.

"It's good to agree, let's eat first, eat enough and have the strength to work, the sooner you hand over the diamond to me, the sooner you can leave, remember, don't play with me, it's you who will suffer." After Instructor Liu finished speaking, he took out a few plastic rice bowls from his backpack, and then put the contents of the pot in these bowls.

The other two men also came over and used their daggers to cut the easy-to-pull locks on the wrists of Chen Ziyang and Li Bojian, but the ropes that bound their legs were retained. Chen Ziyang and Li Bojian each moved their wrists for a long time, and then took over the job from Instructor Liu.

It turned out that what was stewed in the pot was not any meat, but canned luncheon meat of beef, but now even if it is boiled cabbage, the two of them can eat it with relish, so Chen Ziyang and Li Bojian lowered their heads and ate it regardless of it.

While eating, Chen Ziyang continued to think about how to deal with it.
