Chapter 100: Execution
In the dungeon, the faint candlelight was reflected on the water surface of the porcelain bowl, swaying, and Song You in the prison at this moment seemed to be a little stunned after seeing the bowl of 'Ten Breaths of Water' sent by Song Yi.
The so-called ten breaths of water is a kind of water that looks like water on the surface, but can make the person who drinks it die within ten breaths in a way that is like falling asleep, without pain.
And Song You obviously didn't expect that Song Yi would send him such a thing...
And that's... Did Song Yi choose the method of execution?
"You're... What do you mean?" Song You looked at the bowl of ten-breath water in front of his eyes, he didn't drink it directly at the moment, but looked at Song Yi outside the prison door with some confusion, he knew what he had done to Song Yi, in this case, it was obvious that he would not be easily relieved by someone else, but at this moment, Song Yi did not retaliate and torture him before he died because of the previous assassination, on the contrary, the ten-breath water sent by Song Yi was obviously to let him leave safely.
This is where Song You is puzzled, could it be that Song Yi is so easy to let go of the previous assassination?
"Don't get me wrong, I didn't forgive you for what you did before, it's just because I know that everything you did was for Song Tianyuan at the root, so I decided to let you die with less pain, which is the only respect I can have for you. Song Yi looked at Song You in prison and said.
Hearing what Song Yi said, Song You in prison was stunned again, and after a while, he lowered his head and let out a somewhat self-deprecating laugh: "Hehe... A final respect?"
When Song You laughed at himself, Song Yi outside the prison door was just silent, and the bowl of ten-breath water he sent to Song You, as he said, was out of the last respect for Song You, and this was also the closest to euthanasia execution method he could find.
An hour ago, in the council hall, when Song Cang handed over Song You's disposal to Song Yi, Song Yi proposed to personally dispose of Song You in the dungeon, and for this request, Song Cang and the others agreed without much thought, so Song Yi was able to dispose of Song You here at this moment.
For Song Yi, this is the first time he has killed people since he came to this world, although he has also killed people before, but in this world, Song You is undoubtedly the first.
"Boy, can I ask you a question? Actually, I still don't understand this question. Song You suddenly raised his head when he was laughing at himself, he looked at Song Yi outside the prison door and asked.
"What?" replied Song Yi.
"Anyway, I still have a very clear memory of myself, and I clearly remember that when I killed you again, I made sure that you were out of breath, and I also made sure that your pulse stopped, but you didn't die in the end, so I want to know... How did you survive?" Song You looked at Song Yi with doubts in his eyes, he really couldn't understand how Song Yi came back to life the next morning.
However, Song You's question made Song Yi smile bitterly in his heart, Song Yi wanted to tell Song You directly that the original young master of Minghaotang that he wanted to kill had actually been killed by him, but for this kind of thing, Song Yi obviously wouldn't say it, so he could only prevaricate and replied: "Maybe... Is it my life?"
Song Yi's answer made Song You stunned slightly, and couldn't help laughing: "Good life? haha... What a life. ”
At this moment, Song Yi also followed Song You, and a smile arc was set off at the corner of his mouth, he knew that Song You was not stupid, at least, Song You would definitely not believe the prevarication reason he said, but on this kind of issue, Song Yi's response has already shown that he will not tell Song You the truth, and Song You will naturally not continue to pursue this.
In the cell, Song You's laughter soon ended, and then he fell silent, looking at the bowl of ten-breath water in front of him, when Song You saw the reflection of his own face on the water surface at the mouth of the bowl, he suddenly recalled many past events.
Five years ago, he had a complete family, although in this Song family, that kind of life was very ordinary, but this family, for Song You, was at least complete and comfortable.
However, after Li Xiangyu sent Song Tianyuan to the battlefield in the border region, and she herself died in a fire in the library pavilion, the only complete family that Song You cared about was shattered.
Later, there was the news that Song Tianyuan was detained by the Wang family, which made Song You have no choice but to work for the Wang family, and the next four years were a long-term torment for Song You, if it weren't for the only hope that Song Tianyuan was still alive, he might have fallen long ago.
But now, everything has ended, Song Tianyuan has been rescued, and Song You finally feels that it is time for him to rest.
Stretching out his somewhat withered yellow hand, Song You picked up the bowl of ten-breath water sent by Song Yi, and before he was ready to drink it, he looked at Song Yi and said, "Although you gave me a non-painful death, I don't regret what I did, even if it was to kill you;
However, before I die, I want to thank you, I know that if it weren't for your strategy, Tianyuan would not have been able to save it, so one thing is the same, I owe you two lives, one I will pay you back immediately, and Tianyuan's one, I plan to compensate you with other things. ”
"Compensate me?" Song Yi looked at Song You, frowning slightly.
"Have you ever been to the old library that has been burned to the ground?" Song You asked.
"I happened to be there not long ago. Song Yi replied.
"Then you should know that outside the door of the abandoned old library cabinet, there is a plaque that has been removed. Song You said.
Song Yi nodded, he did remember that outside the door of the old library pavilion, there was a plaque that was half scorched and taken down, but Song Yi was very puzzled, what was Song You doing with this at this time?
"The compensation I gave you, just under that plaque, you dig a foot down, you can find it, it was originally what I planned to take with me to leave the Song family after it was exposed, but now it is obviously useless, so I will give it to you. Song You said to Song Yi.
"What's inside?" Song Yi asked suspiciously.
"Don't worry, those things are what I rightfully obtained, but I have been accumulating over the years, and I don't want people to know. Song You said to Song Yi.
Song Yi heard what Song You said, and after he was a little puzzled, he could only choose to believe what Song You said, and he nodded: "I'll go and see." ”
"So... I've given you both my lives, so it's time for me to go. Song You said, he was directly under Song Yi's eyes, holding the porcelain bowl in his hand, as if he was performing some kind of ritual, he drank the ten breaths of water in the porcelain bowl.
Drinking the ten breaths of water, Song You gently put the porcelain bowl back in place, and then slowly closed his eyes, waiting for death.
A sense of sleepiness began to envelop his whole body, letting Song You know that his life had begun to count down.
One breath... Two breaths... Three breaths, in the third breath, Song You heard outside the prison door, Song Yi's sigh, in the fourth breath, he noticed Song Yi get up, and then the fifth breath, the sixth breath time passed, Song You had begun to lose consciousness, and just when the consciousness was about to be completely lost, he suddenly heard a sentence that Song Yi said:
"Song Tianyuan asked me to tell you, he said... He doesn't really blame you for everything you did..."
Song Yi's words echoed in Song You's ears, and at the same time became the last voice he heard, and then in the eighth breath, his consciousness was completely gone, and in the ninth breath, all the pulses on Song You's body also stopped.
At last... He ushered in death.
.......
Half a minute later, in front of the door of the dungeon, Song Yi's figure appeared, he walked out slowly, with some complexity in his eyes, but this complexity was quickly eliminated and suppressed by Song Yi, he raised his head and looked at the outside of the dungeon, a figure standing there waiting.
It was Song Tianyuan.
"My dad he... Are you leaving?" Song Tianyuan looked at Song Yi who walked out of the dungeon, his eyes were also complicated and painful at the moment, and Song Yi heard what he asked, just took a few steps forward, patted him on the shoulder, and then left into the distance without saying anything.
In front of the dungeon door, only Song Tianyuan was left at the moment, and after staring at the dungeon door for a while, he also turned around and left.
