After entering the hall on the second floor, they walked around in the dark for a long time, but there was no guard. Wei Jing became alert, slowed down his movements with Lou Mu, and observed for a while to make sure there were no traps. Then they moved on. They went down to the first floor and found the passage. The corridor stairs to the underground floor gradually go down.
The twists and turns of this underground floor are indeed cells. Wei Jing groaned and vaguely heard moans and cries coming from one direction. The two looked at each other and followed the sound. After passing several twists and turns, there was a long road in front of them, with cells on both sides. Groans came from the two rows of cells.
"Ah, Hua Feng!" Lou Mu screamed. Wei Jing looked along and was shocked. He saw Hua Feng tilting his head, his eyes closed, his face covered with blood, his hands locked on the wall, and his clothes The whip cracked, as if he had been tortured. No matter how loud Lou Mu shouted, there was no response.
"This is... Le Jian!" Wei Jing also found a man leaning against the wall in a cell next to him. He was severely injured and bleeding all over the floor. He looked like Le Jian. Le Jian was dying and murmuring. Together, he raised his hand with great effort and pointed tremblingly towards the depths of the corridor: "Master of the village...save...the master of the village..."
Wei Jing felt unprecedented fear. His whole body was shaking violently, and he turned around and ran in the direction pointed by Le Jian. Along the way, he only saw the miserable figures of the people of Feixue Villa being tortured. He clenched his fists angrily and screamed hoarsely.
An iron fence blocked his way, and the surroundings were dark and gloomy, but he still recognized the man on the other side of the iron fence, who was Bei Xiaolu.
Bei Xiaolu's hands were tied, her wrists were wrapped with several iron chains, and she was lifted off the ground into the air. Her face was slightly drooped, and her half-closed eyes were dim. Scattered on the ground was a dragon bone whip and several darts. Bei Xiaolu also had darts stuck in his body and legs, and was covered with whip marks.
"Ah...ah..." Wei Jing grabbed the iron fence pole in disbelief, shook it violently, and burst into tears. He howled several times, quickly took out his eight hands, pulled out the Yue'er iron knife, and cut with all his strength. He was so agitated about the big lock on the iron fence pole that he dropped his eight-handed knife several times. It took him a long time to cut open the big lock. He opened the cell door violently and was unable to take a step forward.
He cried and cried, took several deep breaths, and finally entered the cell. He raised his hand with difficulty and gently pulled the sleeves and corners of Labei Xiaolu.
"You...why do you always meddle in my business?" Wei Jing murmured, with tears streaming down his face. He stood up on his feet, raised his arms high, and tried to cut the iron shackles on Bei Xiaolu's hands with his eight-hand knife. , this posture is difficult to exert force.
Wei Jing's cheek touched Bei Xiaolu's cheek, staining her face with black and red blood. He felt even more sad and angry. His chest kept rising and falling. He became unsteady, slipped, and fell to the ground, pulling Bei Xiaolu's body down with him. Come down.
"Ahhh..." Wei Jing was about to cry, but suddenly he was startled and screamed strangely. He saw a pair of palms locked on the iron shackles in the air. He was pressing Bei Xiaolu's hands under him. It was broken at the wrist, and what was exposed at the broken wrist was straw and bamboo poles.
"Uh!" Wei Jing was stunned, and the corridor suddenly lit up. Wei Jing suddenly turned around, and a row of corridors behind him burst into loud laughter. One by one, the Feixue Villa thieves who looked like they were being tortured all opened the door and came out of the prison. , holding a luminous pearl in their hands.
They took out cloths and wiped the blood on their faces.
Wei Jing felt that his whole body was getting stiff and it was difficult to react. He turned around again, and under the light, he scratched Bei Xiaolu's face. It was a fake human skin, and under the human skin, there was a wooden head.
"..." Wei Jing sat blankly in the cell, as if he had been frightened out of his soul, unable to say a word.
"Everyone, this way of playing is too much." Gongsun Yao had an angry look on his face and complained loudly among the snitches.
Wei Jing was surprised when he saw Gongsun Yao also there. He looked carefully and found that Fan Jun was also there. There was Qu Yan beside Fan Jun. Both of them pursed their lips and looked at him and smiled.
Wei Jing hadn't recovered yet when he saw Lou Mu and Hua Feng walking towards him. They helped him up together. Seeing that he was still holding Bei Xiaolu's dummy arm, they pulled his fingers away and threw the dummy down. .
Lou Mu smiled bitterly and said, "Oh no, we scared him silly."
Hua Feng took out a white towel, wiped the blood from Wei Jing's face, and said softly: "Don't blame us, blame you for always telling others that our village owner has an unrequited love for you. Our village owner says that she is also a yellow flower girl. Why? I can bear this kind of gossip, so this time I invite your friends to come with us to see who is in love with whom."
"..." Wei Jing murmured: "Where is Bei Xiaolu? Why didn't you see her?"
One of the snitches chuckled and said, "Our village owner just heard you crying and talking, and felt embarrassed, so he left first."
"Ah -" Wei Jing's eyes widened, he stood upright, and finally came to his senses. He screamed several times, extremely angry and roared: "It turns out she's not dead! It turns out you guys joined forces to lie to me - —”

"Don't... don't make any noise, I'm hiding from my brother's pursuers..."
In the early morning, the man huddled against the wall in a remote alley said weakly to a seven-year-old child next to him.
The seven-year-old child was holding a bowl with some vegetables and beans in his hands. He was about to pour the beans and vegetables in the bowl into the gutter in the alley, but when he saw the skinny man huddled in the corner, he was frightened. Stopping his movements and staring blankly at him, this seven-year-old child had no idea that the down-and-out man in front of him was the second son of a great hero who had been admired by others in the past.
"Son, where did you go wild again? Have you finished eating the vegetables? Don't keep running outside, be careful to let the bandits catch you!"
A woman's voice came from the window of the house behind the child, and the child quickly replied: "I've finished eating already!"
As the child said this, he shook his hand and spilled all the vegetables and beans in the bowl into the ditch. A few beans bounced on the ground. After he finished this action, he looked around guiltily, and then at the man in front of him. Seeing that he was motionless, he turned around and ran out of the alley.
The child returned home and shouted loudly: "Mom, I ate everything, you can give me candy!"
The woman glanced at him, took his bowl, looked at it, stood up, grabbed the child's wrist, pulled him out, and pulled him towards the alley. "You're so good, let's go see if you poured the beans into the ditch."
The child shook his head and argued: "No, no, I ate it all!"
"Open your mouth and let me see." The woman stopped and knelt down, opened the child's mouth and looked at it and said, "There are only meat dregs, but no vegetable dregs or bean dregs. You are lying again. You must have thrown away the vegetables and beans." ”
"No, no, I promise not!" The child shook his little head like a wave drum.
The woman pulled him vigorously into the alley. When she saw that the alley was empty, she lowered her head and walked along the ditch. She didn't see a single bean or a piece of green vegetables. Then she smiled, touched the child's head and said, "It's mom." No, I shouldn’t doubt you.”
The child was frightened. He still remembered that the skinny man was slumped against the wall just before he left the alley. Why, he disappeared all of a sudden. Then, he saw another figure shaking around another corner. It turned out that the skinny man had wandered there. She bent over and was looking for something, and after touching it, she put it in her mouth. The child quickly pulled her mother around and said, "Go home, I want to eat candy. You falsely accused me, so you should reward me with two." twice as much sugar.”
The woman shook her head and said, "Twice as much candy is too much. I'll give you two more."
"You falsely accused me, just give me three more."
"I only give you three more pills, no more."
The child returned home and took eight candies from his mother's hand. He was so happy that he put two candies into his mouth and sucked them hard. While his mother was busy with housework, he slipped out and turned back to the little boy. In the alley, he saw the man sitting slumped against the wall in another corner. He saw the man's eyes were dull and lifeless, looking at the sky and muttering to himself. He didn't know what he was talking about, so he bravely walked over and asked: "Uncle...did you eat the vegetables and beans I spilled?"
Li Yue glanced at the child and ignored him, still talking to himself. The child asked several times in a row, but never got a response. He felt bored and turned around and left.
