Chapter 255 Another Central Plains Man
Yan Ruomeng's words aroused the rage of the inmate next door, "What? What do you mean? What happened to him?"
After Yan Ruomeng was shocked, she suddenly sympathized with the inmate next door. Although she didn't know how he turned from a king to a prisoner, she could tell him some stories about the outside world.
"Prince Heng is probably about to take over the power. The current Emperor and Queen Mother seem to like Prince Heng's son very much."
"Humph!" The chain next door suddenly made a loud clatter.
Yan Ruomeng covered her ears in pain, this cell was really abnormal.
Even if it was black, there were still many echoes. Yan Ruomeng covered his head for more than ten seconds before he felt better. The voice of the inmate next door suddenly became urgent.
"You just said someone will come to rescue you? When will that person come? Let him take me out with him. I will be rewarded if I turn around."
Of course Yan Ruomeng would not be stupid enough to say that the person who would save her would be Tang Yuchuan. Thinking of Tang Yuchuan's current status in Beidi, she said.
"He is the current heir of the King of Beidi, your prince of Beidi."
The inmate became interested, "What's his name?"
I have to say that this question really stumped Yan Ruomeng, "Your name is... Jinnuo?"
"Huh?" The inmate expressed dissatisfaction. Although he knew that the other party could not attack him, Yan Ruomeng upheld the fine traditional virtues of respecting the elderly and loving the young, and still told the truth.
"I really don't know his name. Why don't you wait until you go out and ask for yourself?"
Yan Ruomeng's honesty seemed to be appreciated by the inmates. He said slowly, "It should be called Bei Rongjin."
"How do you know?" Now it was Yan Ruomeng's turn to be confused.
"He is a child of Beiyi. When he was just born, I took him to see the tribe I conquered. Who knew that he was ambushed that time? Before I was captured, I gave the order to the guards to take him to the Central Plains.
He raised him and put a token on his body that symbolized his identity, and the words on the token were exactly the two words you just said."
After hearing this story, Yan Ruomeng struggled to speak, "So there is such a part?"
"That's the name I chose for Beiyi's children. I named them both together to save trouble."
Yan Ruomeng vaguely heard pride in his tone.
"?" Why are you still so proud?
"I am very smart, am I not inferior to you Central Plains people at all?" The inmate let out a difficult laugh.
Xu Shi hadn't laughed for a long time, and his laughter was strange, tearing his vocal cords every time he made one.
Yan Ruomeng once again respected the old and favored the young, "Smart, you are already smarter than most people from the Central Plains I have met."
"Who are the few smarter than me?" The inmate grabbed Hua Dian.
Yan Ruomeng was speechless for a moment, "If you are like this, we can't continue talking today."
Yan Ruomeng suddenly felt thirsty and wanted to feel around to see if there was anything to eat. She touched the wall and stood up, moving forward step by step.
"Zhongyuan people, what are you doing?"
Yan Ruomeng licked her lips and held her hands against the damp wall, "After saying these words, I feel a little thirsty and want to find some water. By the way, where is the water you usually drink?"
"Oh, no one will bring food here. I have survived on rat meat these years. Before eating rat meat, I drank their blood. That is the water I drink." The inmate said.
An understatement.
But every word he said sounded like heavy thunder in Yan Ruomeng's ears.
Although there are places in her world where the specialty is rat meat, that doesn't mean she will eat it.
With a tentative attitude, Yan Ruomeng asked desperately, "Besides, do you have any other sources of food?"
"Yes!" the inmate replied resolutely.
"What is it?" Yan Ruomeng continued to wonder whether he was alive or dead.
"The flesh and blood of the prisoners who were imprisoned." The inmate's answer was not ambiguous at all.
At the critical moment, Yan Ruomeng's hand touching the wall touched something that looked like human skin, and she was immediately frightened and fell to the ground.
"save…"
Before he finished speaking, there was light in the cell, and the source of that light was right in front of Yan Ruomeng.
She looked up along the light, and it was Tang Yuchuan's face that was clearly visible under the candlelight.
"Have you finished chatting?" Tang Yuchuan's voice was as gentle as spring water.
"Someone is here again, another Central Plains person?" The inmate became even more interested.
Yan Ruomeng's nose felt sour for no reason, and the fear in her body was swept away. She stood up and jumped on Tang Yuchuan.
"When did you come here and you didn't even tell me?" Yan Ruomeng's voice was filled with a thick nasal sound.
Tang Yuchuan held the candle in one hand and supported her body in the other, "Didn't you realize that I was the one who lit the candle for King Heng just now?"
"What about King Heng?" Yan Ruomeng was surprised.
Tang Yuchuan explained patiently, "I knocked him unconscious before he walked out, and he was taken away by the Beidi King's people."
Yan Ruomeng wanted to ask more questions, but the inmate next door became impatient.
"I said, what do you two want to say? Can it be a little later? Rescue me first and then say, I haven't seen the light in more than ten years."
At the inmate's request, Yan Ruomeng laughed and pushed Tang Yuchuan away.
Before rescuing the inmates, Tang Yuchuan pulled off a piece of cloth from his clothes and handed it to the next door, "Please cover your eyes."
"Why?" He didn't understand. He couldn't wait to go out.
Tang Yuchuan regained his serious expression and said, "If you suddenly see light, you will go blind."
The inmate reluctantly took the cloth and said, "Well, you Central Plains people are still thoughtful. I was so happy that I forgot about it for a while."
It was already half an hour after seeing the light of day again, and the three of them walked upward for half an hour.
When she saw the sun, Yan Ruomeng stretched out.
The exit of the dungeon is on the mountainside of a mountain. The vegetation on the mountain is sparse and large rocks are exposed. It is not a wonderful landscape, but Ruomeng is in a particularly good mood.
Except it's a little hot.
"When can you take me to meet the current King of Beidi?"
The inmate's voice caught Yan Ruomeng's attention. Only now did she get a good look at the inmate.
He was wearing heavy clothes made of cotton and linen. After years of baptism, these clothes had almost turned into rags. His hair was mixed with black and white, and his face was criss-crossed, all indicating that he was old.
high.
There was only one thing, his upright posture and demeanor that made people dare not recognize him as a down-and-out person.
"You are the Supreme Emperor of Beidi, then who is the Supreme Emperor now?" Yan Ruomeng asked the question that he wanted to ask but failed to ask in the underground.
"It's just a fake. It's probably the man who stole it." The inmate sneered.
Hearing this, Yan Ruomeng shuddered and said, "The person you said stole the man is not the Queen Mother, right?"
"Who else is there besides her? She gave birth to that boy Bei Heng by stealing from a man."
"Ouch!" No wonder those two people now want to support King Heng to ascend to the throne.
Everything has a reasonable explanation.
