He could no longer tell the difference between day and night, and he only slept. Even if he could fill his stomach, it was just rotten food, and he couldn't even see the slightest hope.
Wang Ergou knew that he was destined to die.
If it is petty theft, he will be imprisoned for up to ten days and a half. If the crime is serious, he will be sent to serve in an iron mine outside the city.
A person like Wang Ergou who has no deadline usually has only one end, which is to be dragged out on the street and beheaded.
So he had given up long ago and was waiting for the meal to come.
But on this day, the sound of sticks hitting the railings was heard, and a jailer shouted loudly: "Don't sleep, Wang Ergou, Mr. Li is here to see you."
Wang Ergou opened his eyes drowsily and couldn't help but mutter a few words.
"I don't know how many fat sheep I have slaughtered, sir? I'm afraid Mr. Li will take me to Caishikou."
Pooh!!
The footsteps gradually approached, and there was a little more light in the dark cell corridor.
Wang Ergou subconsciously looked intently, and saw a tall figure walking slowly, with an invisible and terrifying pressure.
The figure stopped at the corner when he was about to reach the cell.
"Wang Ergou, right?"
Wang Ergou didn't speak. He was really frightened because the shadow on the ground was too scary.
Mr. Li's neck was several times thicker than usual, and his head hung on it like a lantern, like a rumored evil ghost that escaped from the underworld.
Mr. Li continued to speak: "Let me ask you, do you want to live or die?"
Wang Ergou was slightly dazed, and the figure asked again, which made him feel itchy, so he answered.
"Sir...of course I want to live, no one wants to die."
Master Li laughed strangely a few times, and then continued towards the cell.
Seeing that the other party was getting closer and closer, Wang Ergou couldn't help but swallow his saliva and stared at the strange shadow in fear.
Master Li came to the door of the cell, and only then did Wang Ergou see clearly.
On top of his tall body is a head that is far larger than an ordinary person's. His forehead is covered with veins, making his facial features unusually unnatural.
"Uh, help..."
Wang Ergou was about to say something when he heard Master Li say calmly: "Go to sleep."
boom.
He fell to the ground neatly, and soon he was snoring heavily, and his chest was rising and falling regularly.
The cell door was opened, Master Li walked in and squatted down next to Wang Ergou.
He stretched out his palm and placed it on Wang Ergou's face, causing the latter's skin to gradually change. The wrinkles were erased, and the texture was like old yellowed paper.
Master Li opened the book that Wang Ergou's head had transformed into, and saw that the pages were filled with words, representing his memory.
He turned it over at will and made changes with a brush.
As the words were added and subtracted, Wang Ergou's body also changed accordingly.
His height has shortened slightly, and his originally rough appearance has become more delicate.
He was just a strong man a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye he turned into a woman.
Although the original appearance can still be seen from the face, the gender transformation makes it impossible to be recognized by acquaintances.
After a while, Wang Ergou's head returned to normal.
Master Li took out the glass bottle from his arms, which contained a black-gray substance that was twisting and squirming.
If you examine it carefully, you will find that the substance is composed of fine insects, and its core is a piece of purple-red flesh the size of a fingernail.
Master Li stared at the glass bottle for a long time, then poured it into the man's mouth, and the gray-black substance blended into his flesh and blood.
"That should be enough."
He nodded slightly and left the prison.
When Wang Ergou woke up, he only felt a splitting headache and his expression became extremely dazed. He didn't even know why he was here.
At this time, the two jailers opened the cell door, and without saying anything, they took him directly to the outside world.
When Wang Ergou came to his senses, he had already changed into ordinary cotton and linen clothes and was standing on the crowded street.
He was like a walking zombie, as if there was a voice in his head guiding him.
I don’t know why, but Wang Ergou was walking in the direction of the temple fair, but he was walking very slowly, staggering with every step.
If you look carefully, you can still find the policeman secretly protecting you.
………
In the Fireworks Hall inside the Yamen.
Ren Qing crossed her legs and swallowed a stone eye, and the warmth in her stomach spread throughout her body.
With the help of the stone eyes to restore his physical strength, he summoned the dragon and snake spine in the side room, and controlled the movement with his mind.
The dragon-snake spine would occasionally hit furniture, and the sharp bone blade would easily cut through it, but there was no other place to practice.
Unless it's dark, you can be unscrupulous.
After several days of gestation, he discovered that the dragon-snake spine was transforming all the time, nourishing the entire body's bones.
Ren Qing also figured out a new way to use the Dragon Snake Spine.
As soon as he thought about it, his whole spine made a sound of bones colliding.
The gaps between the joints closed together, forming a ferocious bone knife.
The most important thing is that this bone knife can be extended and turned into a chain at any time, greatly increasing its flexibility.
Even though the current Dragon Snake Spine still focuses on physics, Ren Qing is still confident that as long as he experiences three changes, he will be able to change the world.
Ren Qing retracted the dragon-snake spine back to his spine, and then prepared to visualize the eyeless method.
Maybe because the Taotie method has been promoted to the ghost realm, the progress of the Wumu method is very gratifying.
Even if you don't use information flow to consume your life span, it shouldn't be difficult to break through within two or three months.
However, Ren Qing's other techniques have not improved significantly.
Shenzu Jing is still better, mainly because it has stagnated without the support of wolf blood. Just replenish the resources during the next ghost market.
A masochistic technique like the Human Skin Book is useless unless you use the counter-shock force in the cave.
After Ren Qing practiced until night, he was going to eat something and rest for a while.
At this time the crow sounded.
The paper window was broken open, and the crow flew in from the outside world and spat out the note.
boom!!
Ming Ya's self-destruction was even more unprepared than before, but fortunately Ren Qing was prepared.
The strange mouth in the palm opened in advance, the repulsive force enveloped the room in the wing, and all the flesh and blood was absorbed by the prison in the belly.
Ren Qing opened the paper and looked at it.
The location of the mission is at the Temple of the Empress Dowager. Next is the last day of the temple fair, which involves the festival.
The main purpose of the festival is to open the altar and parade, and to bring the statue of the goddess from the Songzi Temple in the west of the city to the south of the city. Only in this way can it be considered a successful conclusion.
The Jailor Hall requested to stay around the temple fair, and the content on the paper did not reveal much.
Ren Qing guessed that the Jailer Hall was preparing to close the net, and it should be absolutely sure that the land would not die and form a restricted area.
Naturally, he couldn't let go of the opportunity to earn blood crystals.
Ren Qing heard from Bo Feng that the annual celebration of the Empress Dowager Temple was a big day, and it was almost more lively than the Chinese New Year.
However, he did not rush to check out the location. Instead, he warned Xiao Wu and others first, so as not to accidentally get involved in the mission of the Prison Hall.
