C91

Qian Li continued to walk inside, and along the way, she met many people, but because she did not need to communicate, no one noticed that something was amiss.

Finally, she arrived at the room that the man previously spoke of. She tilted her ear to listen for a moment, but didn't hear any sound. She guessed that there was still no one inside, so she quickly dashed into the room.

After searching for a long time, she finally found a secret compartment. Qian Li extended her hand and was just about to open it, when a voice came from outside. She had no choice but to dodge to the side to hide.

"Alright, give me your things. Go and do what you need to do."

So saying, the mayor seemed to reach out to catch something, did not hear the answer, and was presumably accompanied by a tongueless waiter.

The shadow at the door turned into a person, the mayor opened the door and walked in. He seemed to be very familiar with everything here, directly walking towards the hidden compartment.

He did not immediately press the switch, but rather turned it on the side a few times. Qian Li let out a small breath, luckily this person came first, otherwise, if she had impulsively turned it on, she would definitely have been injured.

Because when he turned, Qian Li saw the shiny blade pieces, and following his movements, the blade pieces that were originally hidden in the shadows were slowly moved to the back.

The Mayor does not turn on the switch until the blade is completely gone.

Qian Li couldn't see the object in his hand clearly. It looked a little like those jars used to pickle vegetables and brew wine, but it seemed to have a little difference.

Without waiting for Qian Li to see clearly, the mayor had already entered and the door was quickly closed. Therefore, Qian Li waited for a while longer, and after guessing that the mayor had walked far away, she quickly followed.

The secret passage was not as dark as he had imagined. The interior was brightly lit and there was a candlestick every three or five steps.

The interior was not as complicated as he had imagined. At a glance, there was only a single path that could not be turned and there was no place to hide.

But...

Qian Li was very clear that if she were to meet someone who was approaching him in this kind of situation, she would not be able to avoid them no matter what.

She carefully followed him, listening attentively to the sounds around her. Fortunately, the surroundings were very quiet.

Other than the sound of footsteps walking away, there seemed to be nothing else.

Thus, Qian Li's footsteps became a little faster.

Finally, after walking about a thousand meters, he seemed to have entered the center.

Qian Li realized that from here on out, it was as if she had entered a courtyard.

Even though it was called a courtyard, it wasn't. It was just a row of underground houses.

Most of the houses were made of wood and soil, and after reaching this place, there were gradually places to hide.

It was also at this moment that Qian Li finally felt that the atmosphere was not as oppressive as before.

That feeling just now was as though he was walking naked on the streets, worried that he would run into someone at any moment.

She calmed down and studied the object in front of her.

He then discovered that the furnishings were exactly the same as the dungeon he had been in before.

His eyes turned cold, and he quickened his pace.

So, father and mother, is it really possible that they are in this place?

If they were here, what kind of people would they be if he met them after such a long time?

Very quickly, the mystery in Qian Li's heart was solved.

Qian Li heard the mayor talking to himself, and went towards the direction of the sound.

Then...

He discovered a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

She had always thought that even if she couldn't see the corpse as a whole, she would at least be able to see some ashes. However, she never would have thought that.

He actually saw such a scene.

He saw the mayor put aside the jar he carried in, and then carried the other two out to one of the rooms.

The thing inside was not the wine that Qian Li had guessed earlier.

As the mayor opened the jar, Qian Li smelled an extremely unpleasant odor.

It was the smell of rotten meat.

Right at this time, Qian Li heard the mayor say, "I heard that you were previously just a Prime Minister, how could you have the qualifications to come to this place?

Qian Li blinked her eyes, she guessed that the corpse in front of him belonged to her father, but after looking for a long time, she still did not see a corpse.

No, perhaps, she had guessed, but she did not want to admit it.

He was even more unwilling to believe it.

"I don't know why the Emperor is treating you like this. From this, it can be seen …" You are special to the Emperor. "

With that said, Qian Li saw the mayor pour out the jar in his hands.

Then...

His ten fingers, along with the liquid that had been soaking them, were poured out.

In an instant, a rotten smell filled the air.

Qian Li covered her lips and almost vomited.

She had seen countless disgusting things in her previous life, the first time she went to the battlefield and saw corpses littered all over the ground, she had vomited for several days without being able to eat anything.

However, she swore that compared to the situation before her, those things were nothing.

"I even heard that you rendered great merits. If it wasn't for the fact that you were a good person while you were alive, this old man wouldn't have changed your wine." How great is it for you to just rot bit by bit. "

Qian Li opened her eyes wide as she watched, but no matter how widely she opened her eyes, tears still unknowingly rolled down her cheeks.

Hot tears ran down her cheeks, burning her whole body.

Saying this, he picked up the fingers that had fallen into the pond one by one and placed them back into the new jar that he had just carried in. As if it was meant to be kept for a longer period of time …

Of course, this was only Qian Li's thoughts at that moment.

In fact, when Qian Li saw this scene, she thought of Gong Ming. She thought that Gong Ye also had a special reason to keep these things.

She thought that maybe Gong Ye did it because she had other secrets, but in the next moment, all of her beautiful guesses disappeared.

For she had seen with her own eyes the Mayor walk into the house with the jar in his arms.

Qian Li wiped her tears, calmed herself down and quickly followed.

Actually, she regretted it when she came in. She even thought that if she didn't come in, she wouldn't have known that when a person's humanity began to change, it would actually be such a terrifying thing.

She saw that the mayor actually took out a finger and placed it under the guillotine, cutting it off bit by bit.

Qian Li admitted that when she saw this scene, she was actually scared silly.

This was because the mayor actually chopped his fingers into small pieces. He didn't cut them into two pieces at once, and what was even more despicable was that after mincing them bit by bit, he used a machete to mince his fingers into minced meat …

It was just that the meat sauce was stinky.

The Emperor said, even if you die, you still need to suffer the torture every day, but ever since your heads were cut off, you can't keep your corpses alive for too long. It's been half a year now, and even if we cut off a piece of your flesh every day, only your fingers and toes are left. Even if I only punish one finger a day, I won't be able to accompany you for too long.

Qian Li could no longer hold it back, once she recovered her wits, she immediately threw it in, and without showing any mercy, she directly cut off one of the Mayor's hand.

Looking at the person in front of him rolling on the ground, he didn't seem to be able to react due to the excessive pain.

Qian Li didn't feel sympathy at all.

"Who are you?" "How did you get in?"

In order to not affect Gong Ming unnecessarily, Qian Li was still wearing a mask when she came in.

At this moment, she was clad in black, and it was difficult for a man to distinguish between a woman and a woman.

Her eyes were filled with tears, but she forced herself to hold back.

"Just what sort of deep hatred does he have for you to need to be treated like this?"

Without waiting for the mayor to speak, Qian Li continued to ask, "Moreover, he is already dead, can you not let him go? Why was he so cruel? Is it really that difficult to leave him with an intact corpse? "

Even though Qian Li had been trying her best to hold back her tears and suppress her emotions with great effort, her voice still couldn't help but tremble slightly when she spoke.
