Chapter 119: Prisoner of the Steps

Accustomed to the days above the clouds, how can they be willing to return to dust?

He never thought in his life that the situation of forcing his father would happen to him one day.

A king who has lost his strength and popular support, no matter what his exploits, is no longer worthy to sit on a precious throne.

In the era of talents, there is never a shortage of dazzling young people, and in front of the rising star with both strength and ambition, he was quickly pulled off the throne, and together with his wife and daughter, he became a prisoner.

The superior did not rush to take his life, but simply abolished his skills, and then they were locked up in a dark prison.

The new king seems to be too busy establishing his own ruling order to manage his defeated generals.

In the absence of special "care", the guards remembered how he was also the former king, and he did not do too ugly, so his life was not very hard, and he was treated no different from other prisoners, and there were no beatings and forced confessions as expected.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was worried that his daughter and wife would not be able to withstand those forced methods.

Of course, he also knew that the current superior did not necessarily have no time to ask him about it, but deliberately made this gesture to show his strong strength and broad mind.

Sure enough, there are talents in the country, and he can't help but admire the new king's scheming.

Life in prison is not easy, he is still a man of power in his bones, the past experience is engraved in his heart, and he never wants to return to a low position.

The presence of his wife and daughter on his side could not ease his anxiety.

He is always accustomed to turning a blind eye to the beauty in front of him, and instead obsessively pursues those ethereal things.

So he always took advantage of the night when his wife and daughter were asleep, and tried to re-cultivate again and again, but the meridians had been destroyed, and after working hard for a long time, he had only accumulated a small amount of strength, which was equivalent to the cultivation of ordinary people who had just practiced martial arts.

The little daughter who has been pampered since she was a child seems to have adapted very well, from the gorgeous palace to this dark prison, and the rats and cockroaches and other things she is afraid of on weekdays have all been seen this time.

At first, she would scream in fear, hide behind him or her mother, and tremble by the corners of their clothes, but later she also learned to pick up what she had at hand and calmly shoot those insects to death.

The coarse meals were not tasty, and the coarse cloth worn by the prisoners often caused small rashes on her delicate skin.

The weather in southern Xinjiang was rainy and humid most of the days, mushrooms grew in the cell, and the air smelled of mold, choking her to sneeze all the time, and it was difficult to sleep at night.

But as long as he and his wife are around, the youngest daughter is always smiling, and his wife is also a virtuous person, although she has no power to restrain the chicken, she has a good medical skill, and she has been silently by his side for so many years.

None of them complained, because he was the one they loved the most.

But he couldn't bear to have his wife and daughter in this dark prison with him.

It was that night that really crushed him.

It had rained all day that day, and the straw in the cell had become damp, and the soup was smelling musty, and it was getting dark very early, and they picked up a few mouthfuls of food, and the youngest daughter was clamoring for him to tell a story.

He looked at her, and the dimples from his smile were still sweet, but because of these days, he didn't eat well and slept well.

The originally thin white little face had some sickly yellow gas, and the cheeks quickly lost weight, and a pair of eyes became bigger and bigger.

He touched his little daughter's hair, which was not as smooth as before, and became a little rough, and his fingers trembled a little as he touched it, patiently telling her stories.

The wife spread her robe on top of the straw on one side, trying to make her little daughter sleep more comfortably. Eventually, amid the intermittent sound of rain, they fell asleep next to each other.

In the middle of the night, he was awakened by his daughter's crying, and he had never heard her cry so loudly since she was sensible.

"What's wrong?"

When he woke up, he saw his wife holding his daughter into her arms, and the daughter was still crying unstoppable, and he also leaned over and took her little hand.

"Don't be afraid, Daddy is here. What's wrong? Would you like to tell your daddy?"

The daughter lifted the tail of a mouse, and the mouse had been beaten half to death, "This mouse just now, it bit my toe, Daddy, Mother, it hurts too much, Long'er is afraid." ”

He took a cold breath and slapped his palm at the struggling mouse, and an angry palm wind came out of his palm, squashing the mouse.

If it were in the past, he only needed to move his fingers, and the rat would turn into flying ashes, but now his cultivation can only shoot such a rat to death.

When I turned my head again, I saw that the little daughter's toe had been bitten and the wound was still bleeding.

"No, I'm going to get sick like this," the wife muttered to herself, threw herself at the door, and shouted one after another, "Come on, come on!"

The voice is frightened, like a tired bird that can't find its home.

There was a sound of kicking and tapping footsteps coming from the end of the aisle, and the guards were not properly shoeed, and they were shuffling along the heels of their shoes.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes and yawned sleepily, his face looking like he was woken up.

Today's rain was a little cold, so they got together and drank two taels of wine, just warmed their bodies, and fell asleep while they were drinking.

Unexpectedly, he didn't sleep for long before he was woken up by shouts one after another.

It's just that the identity of this locked person is not ordinary, and he can't ignore it. So he reluctantly got up and came over.

"In the middle of the night, I can't sleep well, what kind of noise," the guard approached impatiently, glared at the woman who was half-lying on the ground in the prison, and muttered in a low voice: "Do you still think you are the queen? ”

A cold light flashed in Sun Fan's eyes, and he was strongly pressed down, and at this time his wife had already opened her mouth to beg: "Brother guard, please go and ask a doctor, my daughter was bitten by a rat and must be medicated immediately, I really can't wait." ”

"Phew", it just so happened that he came today, and he was the worst caretaker of their family on weekdays, this man was dog-legged and snobbish, and he thought that he was inferior to them and could satisfy the new king.

As long as it is the day when he is on an errand, their family will always be troubled, "Doctor, that is for the noble doctor, you are now a prisoner, do you understand? What kind of doctor, but I was bitten, just get up to sleep, Hugh must make noise again, otherwise I will change your daughter to a separate cell, if there is no one to take care of it, the life in this prison will be even more difficult." ”
