Chapter 19: Shock
"Senior Duan, dare to ask why you let people be imprisoned here?"
Shi Xiaofei, who was in a mess in his mind, asked the question he was most concerned about.
"Little one, why are you being held here?"
Who knew that the person who claimed to be Duan Zongbi returned Shi Xiaofei's question to him as it was.
"The younger generation doesn't know. ”
Shi Xiaofei pretended to be at a loss.
"The younger generation was originally invited by a friend to come to Sangshui, but during the day, I heard my friend's neighbor say that the other party had left Sangshui two days ago, but the younger generation always felt that there was something strange in it, so they sneaked into the house where the friend used to live at night......"
"After the investigation of the juniors in the house, it was found that the juniors' friends were indeed no longer in the house, but according to the traces left in the house, the juniors seemed to be in a hurry when they left, so that a lot of the luggage in the house was not packed, and when the juniors were ready to leave, a mysterious person appeared in the clinker and knocked the juniors unconscious, and when the juniors woke up, they were imprisoned here. ”
"If nothing else, your friend should have kept them imprisoned in the dungeon here. ”
Duan Zongbi understated.
"Senior Duan, who are they you referring to?" Shi Xiaofei hurriedly asked. "And why would they do it to their younger friends?"
"They are from the Demon Sect. Duan Zongbi said in a calm tone. "As for why they want to arrest your friend, it may be that your friend has inadvertently noticed their secret, and with their caution, there will inevitably be a mistake. ”
"Demon Sect?!"
Shi Xiaofei said in shock.
"So you're just an unlucky guy who doesn't know anything. Duan Zongbi suddenly sneered. "You should be glad they didn't kill you at the time. ”
"It's a little strange for the younger generation. ”
Shi Xiaofei wondered.
"Little guy, which sect are you from?"
Duan Zongbi asked seemingly casually.
"It's the juniors who are rude, and Shi Xiaofei, a disciple of the Star Tower, is in the next generation. ”
Shi Xiaofei said busily.
"Star Picking Tower?!" Duan Zongbi muttered in a low voice. "What about your friend?"
"The next friend is Lu Shaoyang, who was born in the Valley of Hundred Flowers. ”
Shi Xiaofei said without concealment.
"No wonder ......"
Duan Zongbi muttered to himself.
"What's the wonder?"
Shi Xiaofei was puzzled.
"That's why they didn't kill you. ”
Duan Zongbi said bluntly.
“...... Because of the status of juniors and friends?"
Shi Xiaofei suddenly said thoughtfully.
"That's right. Duan Zongbi said in a deep voice. "Unfortunately, this is also the beginning of your misfortune. ”
"What do you mean, senior?"
Shi Xiaofei was stunned.
"You'll find out in a few days. ”
Duan Zongbi seemed to lose interest in talking, and then he stopped talking, and the dungeon was completely silent, except for the slight sound of iron chains clashing.
"Is this why my predecessors let me fall into the net?"
Shi Xiaofei was panicked on the surface, but in fact he was quite calm inside.
Because he learned about Liu Zhaoyi and the dungeon from Xia Fan early in the morning.
It's just that he didn't think of it.
The famous Duan Zongbi was imprisoned here.
This was really too unexpected for Shi Xiaofei, maybe even Xia Fan might not know about it.
Xia Fan let him fall into the dungeon.
On the one hand, he was waiting for an opportunity to rescue the people in prison, and on the other hand, he was secretly investigating the true intentions of Liu Zhaoyi and the Demon Sect.
As for his safety.
Xia Fan swore that he would always provide protection and cooperation in secret, and would never let him fall into a dead situation.
Shi Xiaofei believed in Xia Fan.
That's why he entrusted his life to Xia Fan and risked being imprisoned.
This is also the so-called bitter meat trick in Xia Fan's mouth.
It's just that this suffering seems to come a little quickly.
I don't know how long it has been.
Shi Xiaofei, who was bound to the wall, opened his eyes suddenly.
The next moment.
A man in a black cloak with an unclear face opened the cell door and entered.
"Who are you?!"
Shi Xiaofei just called out.
As a result, the opponent raised his hand and slammed him.
Immediately.
The man untied the chains on Shi Xiaofei's body, dragged his body out of the cell, and after a while, he came to the deepest cell in the dungeon.
"What's new?"
There was a dark voice in the cell.
"I don't know, so I'll leave it to you for interrogation, keep it if it's useful, and kill it if it's useless. ”
The other party casually threw Shi Xiaofei, who was in a coma, to the ground.
"A little guy who opens the mirror, it's kind of interesting. ”
The man took Shi Xiaofei and examined it, and then directly fixed his body, hands and feet on a cross stake.
I saw that the man slowly took out a few silver needles, and inserted them into different parts of Shi Xiaofei's head in the blink of an eye.
"Ah......h
Shi Xiaofei, who was stimulated by the silver needle, woke up instantly, and at the same time screamed in pain, his hands, feet and body were constantly struggling and twisting violently.
"Answer me, little one, what's your name?"
The man calmly patted Shi Xiaofei's face and said.
"Shi Xiaofei......"
Shi Xiaofei's face was distorted, and his eyes were in a trance.
"What is the teacher?"
The man said unhurriedly.
"Star Picking ......"
Shi Xiaofei's body began to twitch.
"Hehe, you caught another big fish this time. ”
The man looked at the man with some surprise at the man in his cloak hidden in the shadows.
"Shi Xiaofei?!I know him. The cloaked man muttered for a moment. "It's strange why did he appear in Sangshui? As far as I know, he should be practicing with Yu Hengchu in the Star Picking Tower now. ”
"Just ask. ”
The man said disapprerovingly.
He casually pulled out a silver needle from Shi Xiaofei's head, and Shi Xiaofei gradually stopped twitching.
"Answer me, why did you suddenly come to Sangshui when you were supposed to be in the Star Picking Tower?"
"I ......"
Who knew that Shi Xiaofei spat blood as soon as he opened his mouth, rolled his eyes and fainted directly.
"Prisoner, what's wrong with him?"
The cloaked man said in a deep voice.
"Fainted. ”
The prisoner in the other party's mouth was puzzled.
"Wake him up!"
The cloaked man said without hesitation.
"I'll try. ”
Immediately.
The prisoner immediately inserted a few more silver needles into Shi Xiaofei's head.
But instead of waking up, Shi Xiaofei convulsed all over his body again, and blood foamed in his mouth.
"Pay attention to your actions, don't drive people crazy and kill them!"
Seeing this, the cloaked man was dissatisfied.
"It's strange, I obviously didn't play a heavy hand!"
The prisoner hurriedly pulled out all the silver needles on Shi Xiaofei's head and carefully checked Shi Xiaofei's condition.
"There seems to be something wrong with his spirit. ”
"What's the problem?"
The cloaked man said immediately.
"I don't know, I might need some time to look into it. ”
The prisoner touched Shi Xiaofei's head back and forth.
"Remember, don't kill people. ”
After speaking.
The cloaked man turned and left the cell.
"Interesting. ”
The prisoner ignored the cloaked man, and all his attention was on Shi Xiaofei's head.
It went on for several days.
Shi Xiaofei was tormented by the prisoners.
It wasn't until the cloaked man found out that Shi Xiaofei's condition was not good that he threw the person back into the cell, lest the frenzied prisoner accidentally kill Shi Xiaofei.
"The old man thought you were dead. ”
Inside the cell.
Shi Xiaofei's whole person was blind, like a living dead, limp by the wall, motionless.
The cloaked man didn't bother to re-chain him when he looked like this.
Long.
"I ...... Are you still alive?"
Shi Xiaofei's eyes slowly regained a trace of clarity.
"You're alive. ”
Duan Zongbi at the end of the wall sighed lightly.
"I ......"
Shi Xiaofei opened his mouth, and immediately with a sharp headache, he suddenly curled up on the ground in pain and trembled his body.
"Keep your mind ......"
When Duan Zongbi heard Shi Xiaofei's scream, he immediately said a large number of obscure mental formulas.
Gradually.
Shi Xiaofei was covered in sweat and began to stop trembling.
"Thank you Duan seniors for your help......"
Shi Xiaofei, who was extremely weak, spoke weakly after regaining consciousness.
"Remember the mantra just now, every time the Gu worm in your brain attacks, follow this mantra to run your mind. ”
Duan Zongbi said coldly.
"Gu worms?"
Shi Xiaofei said in a difficult tone.
"Don't you know? They've planted Gu worms in your brain, and every other hour, Gu worms attack. Duan Zongbi said indifferently.
"Juniors don't know ......"
Shi Xiaofei said in horror.
He really didn't know, for for several days, he would be tortured by the prisoners to faint soon after he woke up, and he had no idea what had happened to him during his fainting.
Recall what the prisoners did.
Shi Xiaofei shuddered.
If it weren't for Xia Fan's foresight to impose a ban on him, once someone touched the ban, he would have been forced to faint, otherwise he would have been exposed and confessed everything.
But the consequence is that his body and mind have been greatly harmed, and he has experienced what it is like to be worse than death.
on this.
Shi Xiaofei couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart.
When Xia Fan proposed the bitter meat plan, he had clearly informed Shi Xiaofei.
This time the plan was very risky.
But he gets the most out of it.
Once the plan is unfolded, he will not make a move unless it is absolutely necessary.
Therefore.
He can choose to refuse.
It's a big deal to think about each other in the long term and renegotiate a plan that has the best of both worlds.
It's a pity that Shi Xiaofei thought for a moment and agreed.
In his opinion.
Since Xia Fan is secretly protecting him, and his life is safe, this operation is not difficult for him at all.
It turned out to be.
He was too optimistic.
Because he underestimated the cruelty of the people of the Demon Sect.
A simple interrogation almost killed him.
Now that he has planted Gu worms in his brain, what should he do when all this is over?
"Did they say anything to you?"
At this time.
Duan Zongbi's voice sounded faintly at the end of the wall.
Answering Senior Duan, they just interrogated the identity and origin of the junior. ”
Shi Xiaofei struggled to support his body and sat against the wall, his spirit was still a little trance.
"That's all?"
Duan Zongbi wondered.
"Yes, Senior Duan, the juniors don't know, why do they have to ask the juniors again and again......"
Shi Xiaofei said bitterly.
"They usually don't give up until they don't get the answers they want. ”
Duan Zongbi was silent for a moment.
"Is it the same with Senior Duan?"
Shi Xiaofei said in a low voice.
"I'm different from you. Duan Zongbi said hoarsely. "They still keep the old man's life, and they are just preparing to push the old man out as a substitute for the dead one day in the future. ”
"For the dead?"
Shi Xiaofei didn't know why.
"Someone from the Demon Sect is pretending to be an old man outside...... Duan Zongbi muttered. "What's even more terrifying is ......"
"What's more terrible?"
Shi Xiaofei subconsciously asked.
"Do you know why the people of the Demon Sect will attack the old man?"
Duan Zongbi asked instead of answering.
"I don't know. ”
Shi Xiaofei said honestly.
"Because the old man may have discovered a secret, a shocking secret......" Duan Zongbi suppressed his voice. "The Holy One today may be false. ”
"Fake?!"
Shi Xiaofei screamed in disbelief when he heard this.
"It's just the old man's suspicions. ”
Duan Zongbi said in a heavy tone.
"Senior Duan, but your suspicions are too scary. ”
Shi Xiaofei smiled bitterly.
The old man didn't believe his suspicions at the beginning, so the old man secretly began to investigate the past of the current saint...... As a result, halfway through the investigation, the old man was ambushed and attacked by the people of the Demon Sect, and finally let people be imprisoned until now. ”
Duan Zongbi said with emotion.
"This, dare to ask how long the seniors have kept the people of the Demon Sect imprisoned?"
Shi Xiaofei cautiously asked tentatively.
The old man remembered that when he was attacked, it was the first month of the seventh year of Jianxing. ”
Duan Zongbi said slowly.
"......," Shi Xiaofei said silently for a moment. "Senior Duan, it is now the twelfth year of Jianxing, and it will be the end of the year in a few days. ”
"It turns out that the old man has been imprisoned for more than five years. ”
Duan Zongbi's voice became weaker and weaker.
"I suppose the outside world has become a mess, right?"
“...... Yes. Shi Xiaofei said softly. "When the younger generation was in the building, I heard the master unintentionally say that this world will soon change. ”
"Is Da Jin going to die?" Duan Zongbi said with mixed feelings. "I'm really unwilling!"
"Senior Duan, didn't you think about the day you escaped?"
Shi Xiaofei hesitated.
"Run, little one, have you forgotten what I told you before? Duan Zongbi said helplessly. "What's more, the old man is now a waste, even if he escapes, what can the old man do?"
"Senior Duan, aren't you unwilling, so why do you want to say these frustrating words!" Shi Xiaofei plucked up his courage and said. "The younger generation believes that one day, we will all find a chance to escape!"
"Do you know how many people have been detained here before?" Duan Zongbi said lightly.
"The younger generation doesn't know. ”
Shi Xiaofei Road.
"And do you know who can leave here?" Duan Zongbi asked again.
"The younger generation doesn't know. ”
Shi Xiaofei Road.
"The old man tells you, if you want to escape from here, there is only one way. ”
Duan Zongbi said calmly.
"What way?"
Shi Xiaofei hurriedly asked.
"Take refuge in the Demon Sect. ”
Duan Zongbi said in a cold voice.
"The old man has been imprisoned here for five years, and in the past five years, I don't know how many heroes have been replaced in your cell, but these people are either dead or have taken refuge in the Demon Sect, so now in the rivers and lakes outside, you never know how many people in the large and small sects around the country are already members of the Demon Sect, maybe even you have a high-ranking Demon Sect in the Star Picking Building!"
