Chapter 50: The Arena
Broken jade city, the east of the city.
Two tall and thin Tsing Yi handymen, carrying a young man who had passed out, stopped in front of a large heavy iron gate.
The iron chain rattled, and the iron door slowly hoisted.
Behind the door, there are rows of boulders, extremely sturdy, and the doors are made of fine iron, each the thickness of an adult's wrist, and then wound by iron cables for several turns.
Eight or ten slaves were held in each stone cell, and when they saw someone being carried in, they all sat at the door to watch the commotion.
The two threw the boy into the clearing, and then sat down on the ground, gasping slightly.
"Damn, this boss went to drink flower wine in broad daylight, and even brought the keys. This cage can't be opened, where will the new people go?"
"Where else can we go? Our brother is guarding here. Hiss ........"
"What's wrong?"
"Otherwise, let's throw this kid to the master, anyway, this kid has drugged people, and he won't wake up for a while. ”
"Who is that, which one?"
"Isn't it the innermost room without a prison door? ”
"Oh, if you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten. ”
......
Two handymen carried the man to the innermost stone prison.
There was no door to the stone prison, and there was a wooden bed, a table and chairs, and several large jars of wine, and on the bed sat an old man with a white beard, whose legs were cut off from his knees, and who was sloppy and unkempt, and there was a very unpleasant smell in the room.
The two handymen threw the person to the ground and said with a smile: "Add someone to your old place, wait for the leader to come back, take it away immediately, you see ......" After speaking, his face was a little nervous.
The old man's eyes were glazed, staring at a certain place in a daze, and he did not move for a long time.
The two looked at each other, winked, and quietly withdrew.
As soon as the two of them left, the old man seemed to come back to his senses, and he looked at the young man on the ground with determination.
Until it was dark, no one came.
Suddenly, a basin of cold water was poured on his head, and the young man woke up quietly.
His consciousness was still a little blurry, and he looked around, unfamiliar. The air smelled a little unpleasant, the lights and candles were dim, the walls were covered with bluestone, the tables and chairs were rough, and there was a sloppy old man kneeling on the bed, looking at himself steadily.
The young man nodded at the old man, and then asked, "Old man, where is this, why am I here?"
The old man fixed his eyes for a long time and said dryly: "Arena." These two words are very difficult to say, as if they have never been opened for thousands of years.
The boy got goosebumps all over his body, got up from the ground, and his feet were weak for no reason, and he almost fell down again.
The boy leaned against the wall and walked out, out of the hollow stone door, and looked at the two rows of stone houses sandwiched together.
Walking on the long road, the two sides are separated by more than ten steps to open two iron doors, the iron chains are locked, and the torch of Changming is obliquely inserted on the door.
The young man's footsteps were vain, and every step he took was echoed.
The iron door on the left side was suddenly slammed from the inside, the iron chain rattled loudly, and an unusually fat huge figure almost blocked most of the door, and his arms poked out from between the cracks in the iron door.
The boy was startled and hurried out of the way.
The fat giant man roared viciously, and a pair of arms as thick as the thighs of ordinary people slammed on the iron door violently, making a rattling sound, and shouted, "Boy, quickly stick your ass here." ”
The boy stopped.
The fat giant man touched his crotch, excitedly put his finger in his mouth and blew a very loud whistle, and laughed: "It's really fucking handsome, with fine skin and tender meat." ”
The young man turned his head and glanced at the giant man, his eyes were cold and his gaze was sharp.
The giant man suddenly covered his heart with his hands and twitched, and his face was bloodless. After suffering for a while, he fell to the ground with a thud, and blood slowly oozed from the seven orifices, and the death was terrifying.
Someone ran up, probed the giant man's snort, and exclaimed, "The black bear is warped." ”
The boy suddenly felt dizzy, took a step back, and shook his body.
The two rows of stone houses on the left and right were suddenly boiling, and countless hands were on the iron door to look at the young man in the room, and the whistles came and went.
The boy walked out.
There was only one stone prison that was not restless, and in the door stood a man about the same age as the boy, handsome and elegant, with a heroic look between his eyebrows.
The two glanced at each other, and the boy continued to walk out.
At the end of the road, it was sealed by a heavy iron gate, and the young man pushed hard, but the iron door did not move.
The young man released his mental power, and when he probed, he was secretly shocked that this iron door was one and a half feet thick, and even if he recovered from his injuries, he might not be able to break it with force.
The boy walked back.
Passing by the stone prison, the man in the door said, "Is it inconvenient for Fang to stay and chat?"
The young man paused, looked at the person inside the door, and said, "My name is Guan Ren." ”
The man's expression in the door changed slightly, and he looked at the Guan people carefully for a moment, and said, "Brother Zhao Guan." ”
Guan Ren said "Fortunately, and then asked, "May I ask Brother Zhao, where is this place?"
Brother Zhao replied: "This is the stone prison where slaves are held, and there is a fighting ground outside. Speaking of this, he saw that the Guan people seemed to not know the meaning of the fighting arena, so he explained: "Have you ever seen a cockfight?"
Guan Ren nodded.
Brother Zhao said: "It is the same reason as cockfighting, and it is all used to show people the excitement, but the fighting in the arena is not chickens, but monsters and slaves." ”
Guan Ren frowned, secretly surprised, he didn't expect that someone would trade the lives of others, and then asked, "Isn't anyone thinking of escaping?"
Brother Zhao shook his head and said, "There are two masters of the Jue Dao Realm sitting outside, and they will die if they escape. ”
Guan Ren nodded and said goodbye to leave.
Brother Zhao suddenly said, "Your Excellency have you heard of the name 'Zhao Anling'?"
Guan Ren shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." ”
Brother Zhao smiled in return, and Guan Ren turned around and walked towards the last stone prison.
The sound of footsteps echoed, the air was damp and smelly, and the cells on both sides of the cell doors were clapping with the clattering of the detainees.
"What the fuck are you calling, bald! Do you want that half of your tongue left......
The sound of boiling suddenly dissipated, and the Guan people heard that the person who shouted was Brother Zhao Guan.
Guan Ren entered the last stone prison without a door, and the old man on the bed was still staring at the door with dull eyes, and when he saw Guan Ren coming in, he did not react.
Guan Renqiang smiled: "I ..... The younger generation's name is Guan Ren, and he did not ask the old man for his surname. ”
The old man was silent for a long time, and said in a cold voice: "No." ”
Guan Ren sneered, and wanted to say a few words of greeting and get closer to the relationship, who said that the old man was such an unapproachable eccentric.
Guan Ren was a little tired, thinking that the medicine had not yet passed, so he sat on a chair to rest.
But the old man said coldly, "Who allowed you to sit in my chair?"
Guan Ren was a little embarrassed and said, "Old man, I'm really tired, can I ...... it"''
The old man showed no mercy, his eyes were still dull looking at the empty doorway, and he said categorically: "No." ”
Guan Ren was a little angry, got up and said: "Old man, you are stingy, I will sit down, and it will not be bad......"
The old man said expressionlessly: "If you want to stay, you can stay, if you don't want to stay, get out, where is all this nonsense?"
Guan Ren said angrily: "Who should you stay here rarely, it's dirty and smelly." When I'm healed, I'll leave immediately. ”
