Chapter Seventy-Nine: Continuing the Rebellion
Changfeng hurriedly sat up, helped him up, and said, "You don't have to do this big gift to thank him, it's just a gesture, please sit." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
It turned out to be a thank you, so it's easy to talk. I also sat up lazily and said with a smile, "I thought I was here to check the room, but I came to thank you." This Lord Zheng, you said that we saved so many people in the whole city, and we were busy all night, not to mention the hard work, why did you arrest us again? Does your law here stipulate that you should treat your benefactor like this?"
Zheng Ming had already sat down, and hurriedly bowed his hand to apologize: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I personally think that the city lord is not such a person who doesn't know what is wrong, maybe he wants to keep the two divine doctors." It's just that it's inconvenient to see the two of them recently, so I left the two of them to live here. There is no post station in our city, and outsiders live here, so we have to be wronged. ”
"It's a nice explanation, but if you just don't have a place to live, why lock the door?" I asked.
Zheng Ming said with some embarrassment: "The city lord didn't have a special explanation, maybe the city lord was busy and didn't think of this, so everything has to be done according to the regulations." I'm just a prisoner, and my official position is low, and I really don't have the opportunity to meet the city lord. But as long as it's not against the rules, I'll do it well. For example, in terms of food and accommodation, even if the two divine doctors have any requirements, they will try their best to meet them. ”
Changfeng said lightly: "We don't have any special requirements, it's just boring." If you want to stay, you have to go, and give a good time. ”
Zheng Ming said: "I can tell the superintendent about the wish of the divine doctor, and ask him to convey the meaning of the two divine doctors on my behalf. How about asking the two divine doctors to stay for a few days?"
Changfeng pretended to be reluctant and said, "Okay, Lord Zheng, I think the two of us have done a lot of things for the City of Freedom, so it won't be difficult for us." Let's be wronged for a few days, but I hope that Master Zheng will convey our meaning on our behalf, otherwise we won't stay any longer after a long time. In case you don't know, it's hard for this little prison to keep us in place. ”
Zheng Ming nodded approvingly: "The two divine doctors understand the righteousness, and they have superb martial arts, they are really rare talents, I really hope that the two of them can stay and do more for the city of freedom, I sincerely hope to be best friends with the two." I'm in a hurry today, and I didn't expect to be so close to you, so I'll prepare some food and drink with you tomorrow!
As soon as I heard that there was wine and food, my mood suddenly improved, and I immediately replied to him: "My surname is Lin, and his surname is Xiao, so you are right." It's good to drink, you must prepare some delicious food, our brothers' family's cooking skills are superb, in terms of food, we have enjoyed palace-level treatment since childhood, you can't fool us. ”
Zheng Ming immediately laughed heartily: "Hahahaha...... I also love to eat. That's what I said, super, I like that word. Tomorrow, if I have time tomorrow, I must prepare good food and drink with the two divine doctors. ”
Then he lowered his voice and said, "I also want to hear the two divine doctors talk about the new things outside, I heard that there are many things outside that are different from here. Although I have some contact with the people here, I really don't feel at ease with them, so I haven't asked about them, but now I'm trying to make time for dinner every day, and let's eat, drink and talk, how about it?"
Changfeng and I were both infected by this light-hearted topic and laughed happily. Zheng Ming got up to say goodbye, and repeatedly promised that he would prepare wine and food tomorrow.
After Zheng Ming left, listening to the sound of the lock clicking, he stopped for a while, and Changfeng asked me, "What do you think of this Zheng Ming?"
I said, "Bold, but not principled, smart, but not treacherous." ”
Changfeng smiled and said: "It seems that he has a good impression on you, is it because he wants to prepare wine and good food for you." ”
I asked, "What kind of man do you think he is?"
Changfeng said: "Your evaluation is also appropriate, but I always feel that there is something wrong." ”
I was surprised and said, "Is there a problem? What could be a problem? I didn't find it, tell me about it." ”
Changfeng shook his head: "I just feel that maybe he is in a strange place, and he appears as an official, so there is always some caution in my heart." ”
I whispered, "Have you read his mind?"
Changfeng nodded: "I really thought of it, I read his heart, and it's strange that I didn't read anything." His mind was so calm that his brain didn't fluctuate, so I didn't read anything. For this, I feel incredible. ”
I laughed and said, "You haven't read it, have you regressed in your mind." ”
Changfeng said: "How come, although you are laughing at me, you are also putting a question mark in your heart, right?"
Really, I gave him a thumbs up.
Changfeng continued: "There are two possibilities, one is that he is really as calm as water, so there will be no fluctuations, and I will not read anything. Another possibility is that he is a person with extremely high martial arts, and his skills have reached so much that others cannot know his thoughts. I can't achieve this, I can only work hard to block communication with the outside world. ”
I said, "Martial arts that even you can't achieve?" I don't think Zheng Ming is such a person, from his speech to his behavior, no matter how you look at it, he is an ordinary person. ”
Changfeng said, "Well, maybe. I hope so, otherwise a little prisoner is so powerful, and we don't have to think about going out. ”
I heard Changfeng say this, and I felt that Zheng Ming couldn't have a problem. So he said with relief: "Since this is the case, I believe that he has no problem." Not to mention him, our plans were disrupted by his delay. ”
Changfeng said, "You can do it at night." It's still time to buy, so do your best. ”
Well, it seems that Changfeng, a good man, is going to do it to the end.
Things are the same as I thought, not going very well, quite unwell, so to speak.
We chose the next room first, which was a room for five people. When we went in, they were playing poker. I was amazed that even poker was flowing into the dungeons, and they were amazed that we were coming.
Changfeng inquired about their situation, they were travel friends, two months ago when they got lost while traveling, and when they were already dying, they were found by several people, and they were later brought here by these people. They said that they would be sent back to the surface in another month, and in order to repay the blessing of saving their lives, they had to do the city lord a favor, that is, they had to take a medicine every day, and then draw blood every three days, and the eunuch vouched for their lives, this medicine was not poisonous, but the people here were not used to it, so they wanted them to help.
We asked them if they weren't afraid that the drug would be harmful to their health? They laughed and said that they might have died two months ago, but now they are living longer, and even if it is harmful to their health, it is nothing. If you don't even want to repay the grace of saving your life, then what are you talking about? It made sense, and we were speechless.
Then we walked a few more rooms, and no one thought of going on their own. I pointed to my watch, and Changfeng reluctantly returned to our room.
I continued to tease him, with a lot of cold butts on my hot face. Changfeng didn't care, saying that he had to ask everyone to feel at ease. Such a persistent long wind, I hope someone can respond to him.
After breakfast the next day, Changfeng went out. How could I let him leave me and hurry up to follow.
This time, Changfeng walked from room to room, starting from the beginning, and after walking through it all, I found a strange thing, there were no women here. In the laboratory, I saw a woman being used as an experiment. There is not a single woman among so many people who are locked up, which is a bit unreasonable.
After I came back, I talked to Changfeng about it, and Changfeng said, "Actually, when I came here on the first day, I found out about this situation. So I specifically asked Sun Daming. Now I can only regret to tell you that it is not that no women have been robbed, but that women have either been thrown into the laboratory or disposed of. I haven't told you about this because I'm afraid you'll add to the blockage. ”
I widened my eyes: "What do you mean, what is the direct treatment?"
Changfeng looked helpless, sighed and said, "Sun Daming said that there are two ways to deal with women, one is to kill. One is that they will be sent to the city lord's residence to practice. ”
I was puzzled: "What kind of skill do you have to use a woman to practice?"
Changfeng said: "Sun Daming can't tell, but he said that the birth rate of women in the city of freedom is much lower than that of men, so women are very respected and pampered here." Probably like this, so you don't need the women here to do experiments, do you remember that grandma was taken captive and then distributed to the high-ranking officials' families? Maybe this is also an experiment. ”
The city lord is a despicable and sinister villain, this is already a foregone conclusion. It must not be good for him to leave us here, and it seems that we are bound to have a fierce battle!
We spent a lot of time investigating, and it turned out that none of them wanted to leave, and some even said that the lord of the castle promised to give them official positions if they stayed. There are also those who are promised to give them a sum of money, and some who are promised to do something that they have in mind, and everything is what they want, and these hopes are said to be unspoken, and the lord of the castle can think of them. None of them had even seen the lord of the city, and the eunuch said that the lord of the city was a man of God, so they stayed more sincerely.
Could it be that the city lord is really a god, and he can understand everyone's thoughts without seeing him? I don't believe that if he is an immortal, he still needs to do those unsightly experiments?
"Is it mind reading or is there surveillance here?" I leaned back on the bed, looking at the time it was already late at night, and couldn't help but ask Changfeng as I was about to go to sleep.
