Ren Qing came to the entrance of the Knot Cave and found that Lin Cheng was half-dead.
There were large burn marks on the surface of Lin Cheng's skin, his right arm was mutilated, and his legs were broken by Sun Yishan's hamstrings.
Even though he was less than a hundred meters away from the Jailer's Hall, he fell into the acid water but was unable to move and closed his eyes in despair.
Physical exhaustion is one aspect, but it is mainly caused by excessive blood loss.
Although he managed to stop the bleeding with his strong vitality, the injuries were so severe that the distance of a hundred meters was like a thousand feet.
The jailer who was eliminated not long ago is also in the process of recovery.
It almost heralds the end of life.
Before Lin Cheng died, countless memories flashed through his mind, and finally he remembered Ren Qing, whom he had been in contact with, and did not know whether he died in the hands of Sun Yishan.
"You're not dead, are you?"
Lin Cheng was stunned for a few breaths before opening his eyes and noticed Ren Qing squatting next to him.
"It seems that he is still alive, just not dead."
Ren Qing dragged Lin Cheng's right foot and walked straight towards the jailer's hall, leaving the knot hole just in time before the jailer arrived.
Lin Cheng seemed to have come back to his senses, and then tried his best to remind: "Be careful, there is a monk who has mastered the power of brute strength and will kill people and eat meat."
"It's okay, he's dead."
Ren Qing wiped the Damiao knife dry with a cloth to avoid being injured.
Lin Cheng opened his mouth in silence, and then noticed that there were blood stains on Ren Qing's clothes, indicating that he had indeed encountered a fierce battle.
Ren Qing spat out blood-streaked saliva and couldn't help but ask: "Can you still hold on until you leave the Jailer's Hall?"
Lin Cheng closed his eyes weakly. His internal organs were failing to varying degrees, and the loss of his right arm was not life-threatening.
He said with a gloomy look: "The injury is too serious, and the flesh and blood are still melting. He probably won't be able to get out."
Seeing this, Ren Qing asked: "What if there is food supplement?"
"That should work."
Lin Cheng suddenly thought of something, and his face became extremely stiff.
There was no food in the jailer's hall, so Sun Yishan managed to get through the knot hole by eating human flesh.
Is it possible...
Ren Qing lifted Lin Cheng up, opened a mouth in the palm of his right hand, and forced a large number of pig eyes into the opponent's mouth.
Lin Cheng felt the fishy smell of the pig's eyes rising straight to the sky. He couldn't help but feel nauseated, but he suppressed it to survive.
After he replenished his food, his body began to regenerate blood, and the injury no longer worsened.
Lin Cheng managed to regain some energy, but he knew that his internal organs were still failing and he would still lose his life over time.
"But your arms..."
"I practice the snake sloughing method. Every time I break through the realm, I will turn into a snake sloughing. Even if only half of my body is left, I can grow back."
After Lin Cheng finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that Ren Qing's eyes became strange, like a butcher seeing the meat on the chopping board.
But this strangeness was fleeting.
Ren Qing was preparing to leave the Jailer's Hall as soon as possible, so he asked: "Lin Cheng, the exit of the Jailer's Hall should be at the ribs, right?"
"Yes, my uncle asked me to remember to collect a piece of rib fragment before I leave. I don't know the specific purpose."
"I see."
Ren Qing took Lin Cheng up, but the latter did not struggle and lay on his shoulders as a pendant.
He has no intention of continuing to acquire spells in the Jailer Hall. If this delays his promotion to the Ghost Envoy Realm, it will really outweigh the gains.
"By the way, you've been in the Knot Cave for so long, how come you didn't get corroded to death?"
Lin Cheng said with some guilt: "My uncle gave me a pill. After taking it, I can stay in the knot hole for several days."
"..."
Ren Qing's mouth twitched. Song Zongwu was too unreliable. He didn't know anything when he went to the Jailer's Hall.
If it had been anyone else, he would have died long ago.
The two of them headed towards the ribs.
Ren Qing took advantage of his free time to check out the alienation tree of the armor-wearing skill.
[Bone armor person: internal bone grows externally]
[Spine Person: Pregnancy within a foreign object]
[Bone-generating person: body bones are like tools]
For specific information, we can only ask Song Zongwu first, and then determine the alienation route of the technique.
The two of them passed through the cells, which were filled with dusty furniture, as if a jailer had once lived there.
Lin Cheng explained in a deep voice: "When the jailer is near his death, he will choose a cell here to live in until his death."
Ren Qing felt creepy.
Who knows how many weird things Abi Hell has devoured.
Just as Ren Qing was about to continue speaking, he suddenly stopped. Lin Cheng, who was lying on his shoulders, broke out in a cold sweat.
"What...what happened?"
Ren Qing adjusted Lin Cheng's posture and saw a huge strange shadow on the corner wall not far away.
The shadows twisted with the candlelight.
Ren Qing chose to take a detour, and his shadow seemed to be moving, keeping parallel to them.
Lin Cheng took a breath and said, "There are indeed inexplicable rules in the Jailer's Hall."
"If you meet a dog with a human face near the prison..."
Lin Cheng continued with fear in his eyes: "Don't pay attention to it, and don't believe what it says. Just ignore it and walk over."
Ren Qing nodded and stepped away, grabbing the handle of the knife with his arm.
The two of them soon came to the corner. As soon as they turned around, a seven- to eight-meter-sized dog with a human face appeared in front of them.
The human-faced dog's head looks like an old man in his seventies or eighties, with furrowed skin and eyes full of wisdom.
It really had no intention of hurting anyone, and even lowered its head in fear.
Ren Qing's muscles tensed up, but the latter just stayed there quietly.
Just when Ren Qing passed by the human-faced dog, whispers poured into his ears.
"Take the viscera of a living person and give it to him. If he loses his internal organs but survives, boil it with medicinal materials for thirty-six days, and he will be cured of the cold..."
Ren Qing was slightly surprised. What the human-faced dog told was all crazy talk. Why did he use cruel methods to cure Fenghan?
When they stopped hearing the sound, they looked back and saw that there was no trace of the human-faced dog, which made people feel baffled.
Ren Qing couldn't help but ask: "What on earth is this?"
"Maybe they are existences similar to jailers. They only say words that are tempting and will not hurt people."
After Ren Qing used double-eye observation, he found that the figure of the human-faced dog was relatively illusory, and there was no movement from the time it appeared to the time it disappeared.
He shook his head and said nothing more.
There are so many secrets in the Prison Hall, and I am afraid that even the Song Sect is unaware of some of them.
The two fell into silence. As they reached the depths of the prison, the terrain became higher and higher, and their ribs were not far apart.
Lin Cheng's face turned pale, which was caused by blood loss from his internal organs. Even if Ren Qing replenished the pig's eyes several times, it was still of little use.
Seeing this, Ren Qing quickened his pace, and it took him two or three hours to cross the prison area.
During this period, he noticed that there were monks in and out of the rope hole in the distance, and they should have taken the elixir provided by the jailer.
It can be seen that the reason why the Jailer Hall selects reserves and asks gangs to provide monks may just be to recover strange objects.
The real reserve candidates are all related to the jailer, such as Lin Cheng.
