"Nangong Ling?"
If I hadn't recognized her voice, I would never have thought that the woman with disheveled hair and blood on her face was Nangong Ling. How could her appearance be...
Sun Yifan said that Nangong Ling's identity as a "hidden man" had been exposed. This should be the prison cell of Xuan Jing Division. Did the people of Xuan Jing Division torture Nangong Ling
Nangong Ling, who was leaning on the edge of the cell, wanted to raise his hand, but only a burnt palm was exposed: "Wu Zhao, is the monk okay? Has he already..."
I quickly responded, "The monk is fine, he ran away."
"That's good, that's good..." Nangong Ling breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately he was not caught. My mission failed..."
I said in a deep voice, "Is the peach blossom poison you put on the monk real?"
"Yes and no." Nangong Ling said, "Back then, Master deliberately let the poison take effect in order to lead you to Miaojiang and into the sight of Xuanjing Division. I can control the peach blossom poison to make the monk have a high fever and talk nonsense, but it won't really cause any harm to him. After all, he still has to stay by your side to protect you."
Nangong Ling smiled bitterly and said, "Wu Zhao, you ask me this because you don't trust the monk? The monk is a man of honor. He can die for justice without hesitation, but sometimes, there are things that are beyond one's control. I think the monk is dying..."
I asked anxiously, "What do you mean?"
Nangong Ling said: "In fact, the monk has been in pain. There is a bond between him and you, and the master is also indebted to him. Forcing him to choose between you is equivalent to giving him endless torture. Now that you have been captured, he will not live long, because he cannot bear the torment in his heart."
My heart suddenly sank. “I don’t think the monk would… I’m not doubting what you said, but I’m saying that he wouldn’t do anything stupid before he’s sure of my death.”
Nangong Ling shook his head and said, "This is the Black Prison, the Black Prison of the Xuanjing Division. Anyone who enters the Black Prison, no matter if they are gods or demons, cannot leave."
I comforted her: "As long as you are alive, there is hope..."
Before I finished speaking, I heard a sneer coming from the door: "The reason you didn't die is because I didn't want you to die so quickly. If I let you die so easily, wouldn't it be too easy for you?"
Xie Jingwen!
I turned my head to look at the door, and immediately saw a hideous face covered with scars. After the once dashing Xie Jingwen had his face scratched, his entire face had become as hideous as a ghost, especially with the venom in his eyes, which made people feel even more disgusted.
Xie Jingwen put his hands behind his back and walked to the door of the cell: "This life and death pool is a place I specially chose for you. You will soon be unable to live or die in this pool!"
Xie Jingwen pulled the lever on the wall hard, and a stream of green water with a pungent sour smell spurted out from the four faucets on the edge of the pool at the same time.
Xie Jingwen said in a serious tone, "There are seven levels in the Life and Death Pool, and this is the first one: peeling off your skin. After a while, when the pool is full, I will slowly sink you into the water, so that you can have a good taste of your skin being corroded by acid water. After a while, you will see your skin floating up from the bottom of the water piece by piece, floating in front of you like white paper. You can't imagine how it feels."
"After you peel off your skin, I will put you on the fire and slowly dry you. Don't worry, you will not die. You will not die before I have had enough fun."
Xie Jingwen stretched out his hand and pointed at Nan Gong Ling: "Just like her. I don't want her to die, so she will never die."
When Nangong Ling looked at the other person coldly, Xie Jingwen opened the cell door and dragged Nangong Ling out of the cell: "Although this woman looks ruined, she still has a good figure. I will fuck her in front of you in a while. Listening to your wailing and fucking your brother's woman, what a wonderful thing it is? I can't wait for the pool to be filled! Hahaha..."
However, I slowly said amid Xie Jingwen's wild laughter: "This seven-day life and death pool should be able to accommodate two people, right? Wait a few days, let's fall into the pool together, and then I will compete with you to see who can last longer."
Xie Jingwen's laughter stopped abruptly: "Are you frightened? Will I fall into the pool of life and death?"
I said calmly, "If Sun Yifan knew that his disciple slept with his woman, do you think he would throw you in as well?"
"You..." Xie Jingwen shouted, "How dare you cheat me? Didn't you destroy the video at the beginning?"
I said in a deep voice: "This isn't your first day in the underworld, why are you so naive? Do you believe everything we say?"
Xie Jingwen said angrily: "You... you... didn't you swear not to tell anyone?"
I smiled faintly and said, "I'm going to die soon, why would I care about any bullshit oath?"
Xie Jingwen panicked: "You cheated me! You cheated me... All your belongings have been taken away. I will kill you!"
When Xie Jingwen opened the cell door and walked in, I said calmly, "My stuff is gone, but Ye Jin still has it. If I don't stop him, he might release the video to retaliate against Xuan Jing Division. By then, it's hard to say how many people will download the resources."
Xie Jingwen roared: "Go find Ye Jin right away and ask him to destroy the video, otherwise... otherwise..."
Xie Jingwen said "otherwise" several times, but he couldn't continue. I said calmly: "Even if I want to contact Ye Jin, I can't! You should just wait for death in peace!"
"I, I..." After Xie Jingwen said the word "I" several times, he suddenly collapsed to the ground, muttering to himself with his eyes blank, "It's over, it's over, it's all over now..."
I sneered, "With your current status, what else can you do besides suckling your master's wife?"
"Master's wife? Yes, Master's wife!" Xie Jingwen jumped up and ran out of the cell. Not long after, he led Sun Xiaomei back.
Sun Xiaomei looked up at me, then said to Jie Jingwen in a cold voice: "You useless bastard! If you want to torture Wu Zhao, why do you keep so many people in the cell? Do you think not enough people know about this?"
Xie Jingwen's eyes suddenly showed a fierce light, and he hurriedly ran to the nearby cells. After a while, screams came from there... Xie Jingwen set off several talismans in the cell, and then he came back covered in blood, and said as if to take credit: "Master's wife... No, Xiaomei, I have already dealt with them. I even killed their souls."
Sun Xiaomei couldn't help but sigh and said, "Go change your clothes and deal with the body. I'll talk to Wu Zhao."
“Okay…” Xie Jingwen ran out quickly, like a child whose fault was taken away by an adult.
Sun Xiaomei looked at the other person's disappearing back, couldn't help but sigh again, and then said: "Wu Zhao, you deliberately provoked Jie Jingwen to ask him to come over, right?"
I said calmly, "I like talking to smart people."
Sun Xiaomei said, "Since we are all smart people, why don't we speak frankly? You asked me to come here just to let you out. But I must tell you that this is a black prison where you can only enter but not leave. Even if the elders of the Xuanjing Division want to interrogate the prisoners, they can only enter the black prison and cannot take people out. Even if you die, your body must stay here. There is no way I can let you out."
I asked back, "Since the prison is so strict, how did you get in?"
Sun Xiaomei said bitterly, "I volunteered to guard the dark cell. Ever since that incident, I have been in a state of panic, fearing that the ghost realm's affairs will be leaked one day."
"Although I know that you won't leak the secret unless I threaten you and Ye Jin, I'm still worried that something unexpected might happen and Sun Yifan would know about it."
"The people of the Nianhua Sect can have as many women as they want, but they cannot allow any woman to betray them in the slightest. The methods used by the Nianhua Sect to torture women are even more terrible than the black prison!"
"Xie Jingwen is a complete idiot, and Sun Yifan is extremely perceptive. I'm afraid he'll see something fishy in the way Xie Jingwen looks at me, so I have no choice but to ask to guard the prison to share his worries."
"Each branch of the Xuan Jing Division will send a capable disciple to the Black Prison. The person who enters will bring considerable merit to the branch, but will also be temporarily isolated from the outside world. I will only feel a little relieved when I don't know the news outside."
"I originally thought that I could save my life by hiding in a dark cell, but this day finally came..." Sun Xiaomei couldn't help but shed tears.
I said calmly, "We are all experienced people, so why bother playing this useless emotional card? Tell me! What can you do for me?"
Sun Xiaomei said: "The most I can do is make life more comfortable. Other than that, I really can't do anything."
I was silent for a moment before I said, "Since you can come here, you should be able to get in touch with the outside world, right?"
Sun Xiaomei nodded and said, "That's no problem."
I said in a deep voice: "Give me a piece of paper and I will write a letter to Ye Jin to let him know that I am still alive. As long as I am alive, he will not act rashly. At the same time, you must also tell Ye Jin in person not to come to save me. Can you do this?"
"Sure!" Sun Xiaomei agreed immediately and quickly found me a pen and paper. I quickly wrote a note and then waved my hand and said, "Go out and bring some food to me and Nangong Ling later."
I appeared to be very calm, but in fact I was in a state of panic. I asked Sun Xiaomei to pass the message, but it was actually a delaying tactic. I knew very well that Sun Xiaomei would not simply give the note to Ye Jin, she would definitely find a way to prevent future troubles. I just hoped that Ye Jin would not be easily fooled.
I had heard of the black prison a long time ago, and I knew that what Sun Xiaomei said was right. People who were in the black prison could not leave easily. However, I didn't want to sit there and wait for death. After Sun Xiaomei put me down, I started to practice Qigong and regulate my breathing. But Nangong Ling said, "Wu Zhao, it's useless."
