This kind of cry is very scary and makes people feel creepy when hearing it.

Unfortunately, this was in a dungeon. Apart from Xiao Tingyan and a few black feather guards, no one else could hear Zong Lin's pitiful screams of pain.

A lot of sweat broke out on Zong Lin's forehead.

He was panting and looked up at Xiao Tingyan with a bit of panic in his eyes.

Xiao Tingyan was very close to him, his eyes were staring at Zong Lin with deep and cold eyes.

"Why don't we make a bet... Just bet whether Zhang Guozhang will come to save you tonight."

"If he sends someone to rescue you, I will not stop him. As long as they have the ability to rescue you from the cell, I will go with you."

Zong Lin was in severe pain and listened to Xiao Tingyan's words in a daze.

His face was full of disbelief.

"Woooo..."

He wanted to ask Xiao Tingyan whether what he said was true or false?

The dagger was still embedded in the flesh and blood of his arm and had not been pulled out.

Xiao Tingyan held the handle and twisted it gently...

"A promise once made is hard to follow... I will never break my promise. If they have the ability to rescue you, I will never stop them and let you go. You can also successfully save a life." Life."

"But if so, they are not here to save you, but to kill you. Zong Lin, tell me, how are you going to redeem the bet you lost?"

Zong Lin was startled, and he whimpered with excitement.

Xiao Tingyan couldn't understand what he was talking about, so he asked Black Feather Guard to bring some pen, ink and paper.

Zong Lin's right arm was temporarily untied.

Zong Lin's arm was free. He moved his arm, quickly grabbed the brush, and began to write on the paper: "If I lose, I will do whatever you want. Then I will never hide it for Xiao Guozhang all these years." , those things he told me to do.”

Xiao Guozhang wanted him to die, so there was no need for him to continue to hide these things for Xiao Guozhang.

The worst case scenario is that the fish will die and the net will be broken. No matter what, he will have to be buried with him.

He must seize this opportunity.

Maybe, he can wait for a chance of survival?

Xiao Guozhang had thought so highly of him before, but he didn't believe that Xiao Guozhang would be willing to let his most useful brain trust die.

Regarding this, Zong Lin is extremely confident.

At this moment, he completely ignored Yun Luan's position in Xiao Guozhang's heart.

Xiao Tingyan curled his lips lightly and replied softly: "Okay, then we will make it a deal. In order to prevent both of us from regretting it, let's make a contract as evidence."

Zong Lin didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement.

He drew up the contents of the contract himself.

The contract is in duplicate.

He dipped some blood and put a bloody fingerprint on the two contracts.

Xiao Tingyan chuckled lightly and said nothing. He dipped his fingers in Zong Lin's blood and pressed his fingerprints.

Zong Lin looked extremely happy and excited.

He put one of the contracts into his pocket and placed it on his chest.

When a person is in a desperate situation, he suddenly encounters a rare turning point. This would be exciting for anyone, let alone Zong Lin.

Xiao Tingyan exited the cell and asked someone to loosen Zong Lin's bonds.

He also asked someone to bring some bedding and clean clothes for Zong Lin to change into.

We even prepared a table of drinks and meals.

Zong Lin stood there with some restraint, looking at the things that were brought in at a loss.

He looked at Xiao Tingyan who was standing outside the cell.

Xiao Tingyan seemed to understand what he was thinking, and he laughed lightly: "You don't have to touch these things, and I won't force you to do anything. You are worried that I gave you these things to make you betray Xiao Guo. The false appearance of my husband is justifiable."

"It's up to you how to deal with these things."

Zong Lin always had scruples in his heart, he still didn't use those things.

Xiao Tingyan asked people to evacuate.

Then, he turned around and walked out of the dungeon.

He left several Black Feather Guards lurking in the dungeon.

Once the killer sent by Xiao Guozhang appears in the cell, someone will immediately notify Xiao Tingyan.

At the same time, Xiao Tingyan also told Xiao Tingyan that unless those killers really hurt Zong Lin's vitals, they should not stop them easily.

He wanted to use this opportunity to let Zong Lin clearly see how ruthless Xiao Guozhang was and how he completely abandoned him.

Oh, at such an old age, I didn’t expect that Zong Lin would still be so naive.

He must teach him a lesson tonight.

Zong Lin collapsed on the straw pile. He covered his bleeding arm and slowly closed his eyes, silently waiting for what would happen next.

He didn't know how long he waited, but he fell asleep in a daze.

Suddenly, he heard a clang.

Zong Lin shook his head violently and was immediately awakened.

He quickly raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound.

In the dark cell, he vaguely saw several men in black, slashing at the chains on the cell with knives.

Zong Lin's breath was suffocated, and he quickly got up from the ground with some excitement.

He rushed to the door quickly.

His eyes were shining with scorching light, and he stared at the killers at the door without blinking.

The chains of the cell were quickly split.

Xiao Qi and others kicked open the cell door and walked in.

Although they all covered their faces with black scarves, Zong Lin recognized Xiao Qi at first sight.

His eyes were full of excited smiles, and he raised his hand and grabbed Xiao Qi's arm tightly.

"Woooooooo..."

He wanted to say, Xiao Qi, are you here to save me?

Unfortunately, he whined for a long time and no one else could understand what he was saying.

Xiao Qi's face darkened, and he looked at Zong Lin with complicated eyes: "What's wrong with your mouth?"

Zong Lin opened his mouth, and Xiao Qi pinched his chin.

When he saw the bloody scene in Zong Lin's mouth, his mind went blank.

"Your tongue is gone?"

Zong Lin's eyes were filled with tears. He held Xiao Qi tightly, his heart filled with grievances.

Although the relationship between him and Xiao Qi over the years has not been very good, they do not have any deep hatred. Many times, when they are in a good mood, they will sit and drink and chat together.

With Xiao Qi's loyal character, how could he have followed Xiao Guozhang's order to assassinate him?

Zong Lin didn't believe at all that Xiao Qi could do this to him.

He grabbed Xiao Qi as if grabbing a life-saving straw.

No matter what, he refused to let go even an inch.

Xiao Qi looked at Zong Lin without his tongue and felt extremely uncomfortable.

The tip of his nose was extremely sore, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

He tilted his head to avoid Zong Lin's expectant eyes.

He suddenly understood, no wonder the abbot ordered him to come and kill Zong Lin.

Now Zong Lin has become a complete waste.

It is impossible for the father-in-law to let Zong Lin come back to him.

If Zong Lin does not die, perhaps Zong Lin will tell some of the secrets of the father-in-law in order to survive. At that time, the father-in-law will be caught by the prince, and that will be the worst.

Xiao Qi opened Zong Lin's fingers on his arm.
