Chapter 22: The Tribulation

Shi Tianyou woke up slowly, opened his eyes with difficulty, and only felt that it was pitch black in his eyes, and there was a small skylight about nine feet away from his head, and the skylight was only the width of a human head. Outside light filtered in through the skylight, indicating that it was still daytime.

Shi Tianyou looked around again, and made sure that he was in a cell, his back was cold and damp, and he felt that his whole body was yin and cold, and he was extremely uncomfortable, so he wanted to get up and find a slightly dry place to rest. When he reached out again, he found that his hands were also handcuffed by iron chains.

Well, no way. Shi Tianyou could only spread his legs moderately, knelt on the ground with both knees, touched the ground with his hands and slowly moved around, feeling the dryness of the ground under his hands.

Why is Shi Tianyou so afraid of the cold? First, he is hungry, and if he does not eat for too long, his ability to resist frost will be sharply weakened; second, he has been hit by Wu Gong's cold yin skill, which is the work of the world's most yin to cold, and Wu Gong has soaked the cold yin qi into Shi Tianyou's limbs through the big vertebral acupoint, so his whole body is extremely cold, and he naturally unconsciously longs for a warm and dry place.

Shi Tianyou prostrate on the ground, looking for the warm and dry "paradise" that his heart yearns for with both hands. Suddenly, both hands grabbed two things that felt exactly the same, Shi Tianyou was taken aback, exclaimed "ah", and hurriedly let go of his hands.

After a while, it was found that there was no movement, and the cell was still quiet. I thought: I don't know what I touched just now, I feel the warmth of my tentacles, is it that I have been put in prison and I am unconscious, so I don't know? I was hungry in my stomach, and I couldn't help but touch it again, and my hands were still grinding on it...... I touched a few melon-like things and muttered, "Is it pig's feet? That's really good!"

Suddenly, a faint voice said: "Boy, have you touched enough?" Shi Tianyou was startled, jumped up, forgot in a panic that he was wearing leg cuffs, tripped over a chain under his feet, fell down with his back to the sky, and only felt a hard thing under his back, it turned out to be a knee against his back .......

Falling down and pulling the thigh wound, Shi Tianyou only felt a sharp pain in his heart, and felt that the blood in his whole body began to boil again, and thousands of ants rushed to the heart along the blood vessels of the whole body, and after a while, there was a sharp pain from the bite of dense ants in the heart, and the soul began to flutter out of the body.

"Am I going to die, am I just dead?" Shi Tianyou seemed to see the judge from hell ......beckoning to him. "You've got me crushed...... I'm uncomfortable...... Can you get out of the way?" a faint voice sounded in his back. "Are you talking about me? Is this the eighteenth layer of hell? Okay! Okay! Wait...... I'll get out of here right away!" Shi Tianyou said incoherently.

The pain of biting in the heart had just improved, and Shi Tianyou felt that the whole body was extremely cold and unbearable, like entering an ice cellar, and the ice blade cut his meridians and internal organs all over his body. Shi Tianyou wanted to use his true qi to resist, but after the true qi turned, this pain was exacerbated, and his whole body was covered with a thin layer of frost. "Get out of here! Get out of here! Freeze me to death!" the faint voice behind him sounded again.

Shi Tianyou rolled hard to the side, leaving the man's body, and the body touched the wound on the thigh again, the blood began to boil again, and the ants began to surge along the blood vessels to the heart again.......

What's going on? Shi Tianyou felt that the ant-like bite this time was not as uncomfortable as the previous two times, strange, could it be that each time was more slight than the last? Shi Tianyou was puzzled. Even I didn't feel so cold anymore, and the thin layer of frost had long since disappeared.

"Thank you!" There was a faint voice next to him, and Shi Tianyou even heard the soft sigh of relief after speaking. "You're welcome! I'm sorry! Shi Tianyou hurriedly said.

The man didn't speak again, apparently not even having the strength to speak. There was a moment of silence in the cell. Shi Tianyou was about to ask him how long he had been coming in, when he suddenly heard the sound of the cell door opening, and two wardens walked in, one on the left and one on the right, carrying the man on the ground to the door.

Shi Tianyou looked at the long hair of the person who was framed like chopsticks covering his entire head, obviously he had been locked up in prison for a long time. Although he was half-dragged by the two wardens and landed on the ground below the knee, he was still half a head taller than the two wardens, Shi Tianyou thought to himself: The two wardens are not short, this person is really tall.

The two guards had been fighting for a long time, and they had not yet reached the door with great effort, and they were very angry, and one of the guards gave the man a slap and scolded: "It's really unlucky, it's smelly and heavy! Every time I was arraigned, I even used the strength to breastfeed...... Zhang Yihammer, you're so fucking hard! You can't die like this, why don't you die?......" He scolded and dragged Zhang Yihammer away all the way.

Shi Tianyou thought to himself: It turns out that this person's name is Zhang Yihammer, and it seems that he has been locked up here for a long time, so long that he is even annoyed to see him in prison. I don't know why he was locked up in prison, could it be that like himself, there is a secret that the fat pig wants to know and he is holding on to it? The fat pig tortured him to the way he is now?

Shi Tianyou sat in a dark and damp cell, at this time the toxicity had not yet attacked, and the cold qi in his body had not raged, except for the wound on his thigh, which was faintly painful, everything else seemed to be normal. Shi Tianyou followed the method taught by Gongsun Xian to induce true qi to run in the whole body for a small week, and found that it was quite normal, but the true qi ran to the "body pillar", "giant que", "divine way", and "spiritual platform...... When waiting for the acupoints of the Du pulse, there was a faint tingling sensation. Shi Tianyou has been following Gongsun Xian for too short a time, and what he has learned is really limited, and Gongsun Ce has not taught him why the acupuncture points sting, so of course Shi Tianyou doesn't know.

Hey, it would be nice if I could learn from the master for another year and a half. But he only thinks about his exquisite chess game, not to mention letting him stay with him for another half a year, even if it is only for half a day, he may not be able to stay .......

The door slammed open, followed by a continuous howl, followed by a clattering of howls. Zhang Yizhu was put back by the two wardens, but he was dying when he went, and he was full of energy when he returned, at least from what his howls and shouts sounded like this.

"You killed me...... Kill me! I won't promise you...... Death doesn't ...... Howl, it hurts me!" The two wardens threw Zhang Yi's hammer to the ground like a ball of garbage, quickly locked the cell door, and flew away.

Zhang Yizhu continued to howl on the ground, sometimes crying out in pain, and sometimes calling for others to kill him. Suddenly, Zhang Yihammer quieted down, and crawled towards the wall with great difficulty, very slowly. Oh, it's a misnomer, it should be called squirming.

Shi Tianyou stared at him closely, Zhang Yihammer squirmed for a long time, it felt like a century had passed, and finally he crawled to the wall, in fact, he had only moved a distance of three feet in total......

Zhang hammered to the wall, like a dead man lying on the ground motionless, after a bag of cigarettes, I saw him slowly raise his elbows and press his hands to the ground. Shi Tianyou suddenly realized what he was going to do next, and although he was far away, he still crawled towards Zhang Yihammer with both hands .......

With a soft sound, Shi Tianyou's heart tightened, and he hurriedly looked at the wall, but before his eyes reached the wall, the tragic scene of his brain bursting had already appeared in his mind.

But apparently Shi Tianyou overestimated Zhang Yihammer's ability to commit suicide, not only did the picture of the brain spraying the wall not appear, but Zhang Yizhu didn't even break his scalp. "Failed again! Failed again!" exclaimed Zhang Yihammer in annoyance.

Shi Tianyou felt sad in his heart, not only admiring Zhang Yizhu's unyielding death, but also sympathizing with him that he couldn't even commit suicide. I couldn't help but ask softly, "Are you uncomfortable?"

Shi Tianyou's questioning obviously reminded Zhang Yihammer that there was one more person in the cell this time, so he said hopefully: "Little brother, you are doing well! I am really in pain, you come over and punch me in the chest...... Oh, no, you're a small man, and one punch is probably not enough, so I'm sorry for you! A few more punches will kill me...... Okay, hurry, hurry, please!" Zhang Yihammer said in the end, completely begging Shi Tianyou to kill him.

Shi Tianyou climbed to Zhang Yihammer's side and stretched out his right palm against his chest. "Right...... Don't touch my chest, hit, hit...... Huh!" Zhang Yihammer saw that Shi Tianyou stretched out his palm against his chest but did not pat, begging for death, he was anxious to ask Shi Tianyou to hit his chest, but suddenly felt that a warm current in the middle of the acupoint flowed down the Ren vein, and a comfortable feeling that had never been felt in a long, long time passed along the Ren vein to the surrounding ......body.

Zhang Yizhu quieted down, looking at this young man who couldn't see his true face clearly and had not yet grown up, and there was a sense of cordiality and trust in his heart for no reason. People's feelings are sometimes strange, like "a glance is eternal" in love, like "since you are identified, you will stick a knife in each other's ribs" in friendship, etc., all of them are good feelings first, and then they live and die or forget about death.

Shi Tianyou continuously delivered true qi to Zhang Yihammer's body, but his ability to recover his true qi was extremely poor, what was the reason? First, he was poisoned (he was poisoned by "losing his soul and scattering his heart"), second, he was poisoned (cold yin poison, in fact, it can also be regarded as poisonous); third, his nutrition was not enough, and his body was weak. After losing like this for a while, I felt that my eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and my body was tired and abnormal, and of course there was only one ending: fainting directly ...... death.

Seeing Shi Tianyou sacrifice his life to alleviate his pain and deliver true qi for himself, Zhang Yihammer felt both moved and guilty in his heart, and thought: I, a dying person, don't waste this little brother's true yuan qi in vain, and I won't ......let him lose again next time.

This little brother seems to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, and his internal strength is quite profound, which is really rare! I don't know how to offend the traitor An Simen, and ...... to be tortured in such an inhuman way. Zhang Yihammer was studying and analyzing his new companion in his heart, and suddenly the cell door "squeaked" and opened gently, and a figure rushed in, holding a big bowl in his hand, and walked to Zhang Yihammer's side lightly and carefully, Zhang Yihammer took the bowl with great effort, and stopped drinking half of it, but pushed Shi Tianyou with his hands.

Fortunately, after pushing for a while, Shi Tianyou finally woke up, Zhang Yihammer was overjoyed, and shouted: "Little brother, honey! Honey! Get up and drink!" Shi Tianyou didn't understand the situation in front of him at all, but this did not prevent him from being eager to drink after hearing the word honey, so he sat up with all his strength, took the big bowl in Zhang Yihammer's hand, and drank it with a "sip". After drinking, don't forget to lick the residue of the bowl wall with your tongue.

Seeing that the two of them drank this bowl of honey grinding, they were so anxious that they hurriedly got up and walked towards the prison door, and when they reached the door, they almost fell, and muttered: "Kong Rong let the pear......?

Shi Tianyou had just finished eating the honey and was still in the aftertaste, the door opened again, and the two wardens walked to Shi Tianyou's side, and one carried Shi Tianyou outside. Zhang Yizhu had just finished eating honey, and he was a little angry, and scolded loudly: "Dead traitor, you have the ability to rush to grandpa! What kind of ability is it to bully children?"

The two guards just didn't hear it, and carried Shi Tianyou out of the prison door, and one of the guards said while walking: "This one is much easier, how nice it would be if all the people in prison were children......

Still came to the teahouse, the fat pig and the centipede (oh, mistaken, it should be Wugong) sitting on a rattan chair drinking tea, still pretending to be beaten up.

Seeing Shi Tianyou being put inside the door, the fat pig waved his hand and motioned for the two wardens to wait outside the door. The warden retreated, and gently closed the door.

The fat pig held the four-eared white porcelain pot, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Young Master Shi, can you still come over?" Shi Tianyou looked at the sky with his eyes (no, he looked at the roof with both eyes, there was no sky), and he didn't bother to pay attention to him. "It looks like it's really a tough nut to bite, I'm afraid I'm going to add some fierce ingredients!" said to Wu Gong with a smile.

Wu Gong obviously didn't have such good patience and self-cultivation as a fat pig, put down the teacup in his hand, and walked quickly towards Shi Tianyou. The procedure naturally did not change, and it still poured cold yin qi into Shi Tianyou's vein through the big vertebral acupoint, but this time it did make a big move.

There was another pain that wanted to live rather than die, this time Shi Tianyou's whole body was covered with a thick layer of frost, his body was shaking, and the ice cubes were falling down the brush. The pain like an ice blade piercing the internal organs of the whole body made Shi Tianyou taste it again, but this time the pain was even worse than the last time.

Shi Tianyou's pain was unbearable, but the fire of anger and hatred in his heart was even stronger. "You torture me like this, but if you make me Shi Tianyou immortal, I will repay it tenfold and hundredfold in the future!!"

The two of them held teacups and admired their masterpieces: looking at the masterpieces of others who could not survive or die.

After the two of them drank another pot of tea, they looked a little tired, and then slowly asked (this time it was Wu Gong who asked): "It's still the same sentence, where is the gun? Say it and relieve all the pain on your body." If you don't say it, it will hurt until the day you die!"

Shi Tianyou's face was distorted, he was obviously shivering with cold, but fine beads of sweat oozed from his face. "I can't stand it! Come here, I'll tell you!" Shi Tianyou said in a small and inaudible voice like a man who was about to die.

The two were overjoyed, and after glancing at each other, Wu Gong walked to Shi Tianyou and squatted down. "Come here, come here!" Shi Tianyou said breathlessly. Wu Gong leaned closer to Shi Tianyou again, and his ear came to Shi Tianyou's mouth.

"In ......," Shi Tianyou opened his mouth and said. "Ah......h Shi Tianyou was in the palm of his back, his mouth was loosened, and a large mouthful of blood spit out to ...... along with one ear.
