Many people have seen the scene of a group of wild dogs and cats fighting for food on the road. That kind of fight, that kind of struggle, spares no effort and spares no effort.
Because animals know that without food, they will die.
Humans have always claimed to be a superior being, the spirit of all things;
It's like some people in Tongcheng, when being called from northern Jiangsu, would excitedly retort, like a cat whose tail is stepped on, that they are from central Jiangsu, not northern Jiangsu. This is even more ridiculous.
Many years ago, humans also lived a life of eating raw meat and drinking blood like wild beasts, but now, people often call some excessive behaviors "beastly behavior."
Enlightened,
Wise,
I quickly wanted to cut off ties with my former "companions".
Just like now, Zhou Ze was watching this group of people fighting for the chains. They were shooting their guns with great concentration and fighting with great enthusiasm, causing people and horses to fall to the ground. The air in the cell, which already had very bad air, was further stirred up by them with clouds of dust, making the air even worse.
In the end, a man stood up with an iron chain in his hand. His face was covered with bruises, his body was covered with bruises, and there was a cut at the corner of his eyebrow, and blood kept dripping down.
This is this woman’s man, the man who fed her lovingly before.
Just like a lion going out to hunt and bring food back for his lioness, he succeeded.
The man in black uniform reached out and knocked on the railing.
It indicates that the chain has an owner.
This also forced those around who were still ready to go up and fight for the goods to give up.
actually,
When the food was distributed at the beginning, everyone else in the cell showed great restraint because they knew there was a pregnant woman in the prison.
But this does not mean that they will show mercy in the subsequent fight for the chain. Eating later or eating less will not be a big problem. However, this chain means more.
The man walked up to the woman with the chain.
Bend down,
Put the chains on the woman's feet.
"Click"
buckle,
Then he looked up.
Look at the woman,
He smiled.
Laughing happily,
This smile, in Zhou Ze's eyes, looked like a mentally retarded person.
at the same time,
He had a deep confusion.
What does this chain mean
Why are these prisoners so enthusiastic about it
But there is one thing Zhou Ze can be sure of.
This chain doesn't seem so beautiful.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be a nightmare that still exists after so many years.
This dream was very clear, with every detail so clear that it could not be clearer. However, despite this, Zhou Ze felt that there was still a layer of fog that was completely unclear.
It shrouds the truth.
Sometimes, the more real something is, the more false it is.
Zhou Ze opened his mouth.
He wanted to say something, but no sound came out in his throat, only a hoarse murmur.
Then,
The man helped the woman up, and the men in black uniforms opened the cage. Several more men in black uniforms came over and helped the woman up from the man's hands.
The man subconsciously wanted to follow out, but was pushed back in by two men in black uniforms.
Then the iron railings were closed again. The man held the railings tightly with both hands, looking at the woman, looking at her belly.
He is still very happy.
Extremely happy,
Very happy,
Zhou Ze was so happy that he thought if he had the chance,
I wanted to run back and beat him up.
“Clatter… clatter… clatter… clatter… clatter…”
The sound of chains rubbing against the ground,
Zhou Ze was also walking.
But because this body was too weak, there were people in black uniforms supporting him on both sides.
Walking all the way,
Cold and lonely,
Only the sound of the iron chain rubbing against the ground was so crisp.
So harsh.
However,
When passing by other cells,
Zhou Ze saw a similar scene as before.
The prisoners in the cell gathered in front of the iron bars, leaning their heads out and looking at Zhou Ze, the woman with iron chains tied around her feet.
In their eyes,
Full of envy,
It's the kind of envy that makes you want to replace someone else.
When they heard the sound of the chains, they even showed expressions of enjoyment.
Are these people mentally ill
Boss Zhou now has a face full of black question marks
Walk,
Still walking,
Keep walking,
This passage was very long, and Zhou Ze walked very slowly.
But it was obviously because the two men in black uniforms beside her did not use their full strength. If they wanted to, they could obviously drag the woman forward quickly in minutes.
Although this woman was a pregnant woman, Zhou Ze knew that it was a miracle that she had managed to avoid miscarriage given her good nutrition and living environment. In fact, she was really thin, just slightly better than skin and bones.
She and her child can survive.
It’s really not easy.
In Zhou Ze's opinion,
It was these people in black uniforms who were walking so slowly on purpose.
They're like a parade.
Walk slowly with the woman,
It was as if they were surrounding the champion to receive the attention and cheers from others, as if they were deliberately trying to prolong the process.
However, Zhou Ze still had a doubt.
It seems like we're going in the wrong direction.
Previously, the chain went from the right side of his cell to the left, but this time he was supported and walked from left to right. Zhou Ze noticed the difference carefully.
No matter how long the road is,
There is an end after all.
Front,
An iron door appeared.
The door was opened.
Zhou Ze was pushed in.
There is a table inside.
There is clean water and food on it.
Zhou Ze didn't move.
Forcing Boss Zhou to eat without any other condiments is no less than torture.
But the next moment,
An impulse sounded in Zhou Ze's heart.
Zhou Ze began to reach out and desperately stuff food and water into his mouth.
Zhou Ze knew that this was just a dream, and he was putting himself in the shoes of a woman.
so,
Now I am not moving by myself,
Instead, it was the woman's desire to survive that forced her to start eating, eating desperately, because she wanted to survive, because she had a child in her belly.
She knew clearly that her child needed nutrition.
The woman continued to eat voraciously for a long time, but it seemed that she never had enough. However, the man in black uniform next to her stopped her directly and interrupted her eating.
Zhou Ze, who used to be a doctor, knew that overeating during a period of extreme food shortage could easily put people's lives in danger.
In ancient times, there was a kind of "private punishment" in prisons, called "prison death."
That is, keep the prisoners hungry and only give them a small amount of food so that they will not starve to death, but they can't expect to be full. Of course, this stage can be omitted. In ancient times, wanting to have a full meal in a cell was a delusion and luxury.
Then suddenly one day, the jailer put a table full of delicious food and wine and let you eat to your heart's content. When you have eaten your fill, two jailers come over, one on each side, one grabs your head and the other grabs your feet, and they lift you up to do "stretching exercises", tightening and straightening you.
After going back and forth for so long, you're done.
With this kind of death, the ancient coroners' autopsy skills would not reveal anything unusual, and there were no other wounds on the body. The jailers usually used this method to collect bribes and help people get revenge in prison.
After eating,
My body seemed to have some strength back.
A man in black uniform came in with a water gun.
The water gun started pointing at the woman.
The cold water rushed over, back and forth.
The woman lay on the ground.
Sobbing constantly,
Boss Zhou also became a drowned chicken. It was really not a pleasant feeling.
Then,
The man in black uniform brought a white robe for the woman to change into, and then pushed the woman, whose body was still a little wet but much cleaner than before, out of the iron gate again.
“Clatter… clatter… clatter… clatter…”
The chain continued to be dragged along the ground.
The path that we have walked before has to be walked again.
Zhou Ze was somewhat confused.
Could it be that the purpose of snatching the chain is to have a full meal and take a bath
Is it the same as fighting for meal tickets and bathing tickets
On the way back, the people behind the iron railings on both sides still looked at Zhou Ze with envy.
Keep going forward.
When they arrived at the cell where Zhou Ze was imprisoned, the man who was feeding her was also standing by the bars, looking at the woman. He was very excited, pleased, and happy.
This reminded Zhou Ze of a song by Rene Liu:
"I love you so much that I am willing to let you fly to a happier place..."
Zhou Ze continued to walk forward, and the chain continued to rub against the ground.
The man in black uniform did not send him back to the cell where he was before, but continued walking forward.
Walking up the stairs,
As we walked, a carpet appeared.
Walking and walking,
The iron gate appeared again.
The door was opened.
There is light inside,
It gives people the illusion that they can escape.
People who have never been to jail cannot understand the desire for freedom when they are in prison, just as most people only realize how wonderful it is to be healthy and full of energy when they are sick.
Zhou Ze obviously noticed that
There was a feeling of excitement and joy in this woman.
Very strong.
Even her body was shaking constantly.
She took the initiative to walk in.
The chain continued to drag along the ground,
The last sound remained in this narrow space.
"Bang..."
After people walked in,
The iron gate was closed.
In front of it, it was blocked by a white greenhouse similar to the one used by farmers to grow off-season vegetables.
On both sides of the nearby area,
It is something like a shower head with many small holes.
It's like a public bathhouse. It seems that if you didn't take a clean bath before, you have to take a bath again.
The woman's emotions continued to stir.
She was still moving forward slowly,
After seeing the layout around him, Zhou Ze
A terrifying haze immediately descended.
The woman didn't know where this place was.
But he knows!
Damn it,
go out,
To go out,
This isn't some goddamn shower room.
This is purgatory.
The real hell on earth!
