The boy tied to a pillar kept screaming as his parents continued to torture him in the small and suffocating woodshed. The sound of his screams was so miserable that even Li Huowang couldnt bear it.
After a while, the pulling force of the tal clamp eventually reduced. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the boy tilted his head to the side and gasped, taking in big gulps of air.
On the other hand, the brightly-dressed couple crouched down and carefully examined their sons lower body.
How? Is it helpful? asked the woman.
Hearing the womans question, the man carefully used his fingers to asure a few tis, his expression becoming increasingly disheartened with each asurent. No good! We cant delay any longer. We must lock it, or it will be too late!
Hearing those words, the child, who was drenched with sweat, was taken aback. He pleaded with a quivering voice, Dad, I dont want to be locked! I dont want to!
The man was also hesitant, but eventually sighed as he softly touched the back of the childs head. Listen to , Jinger. A true man shouldnt be afraid of pain. Once the lock is applied, everything will be okay. It may hurt a little, but at the very least, you wont lose your manhood. Without it, you may not even be a man in the future.
Thats fine, then! I dont want to be a man! I dont want to be a man! The boy continued to yell at his father as if trying to grasp a lifeline.
As he heard his sons cries, the man broke down in tears, clearly feeling torn on the inside. Despite this, he still turned back and picked up an iron box from the ground nearby. After a mont, he opened the box and took out a small silver square lock with a silver chain.
Dad!! Dad!! Please don't!!" The boy cried out in anguish, his terrified mind already anticipating the excruciating pain that was to co.
Just as the sharp lock was getting closer, the door suddenly burst open, and a gust of wind rushed in, making it impossible for the three of them to keep their eyes open.
Sensing the danger, the man holding the silver lock quickly turned around. With a panicked expression, he opened his hands to shield his son and wife as he shouted, Who is it? Who is there? Help! Soone, quickly! Soone is trying to assassinate !
Upon hearing the commotion, it didnt take long for several constables clad in green to hurriedly rush in. Holding their straight knives, they clasped their fists toward the man. Lord Yang, whats the matter?
The county magistrate, Yang Hongzhi, pointed to the open door of the woodshed with trembling hands and fear in his eyes as he said, The door just opened suddenly. Its here! That thing is here!!
anwhile, Li Huowang was walking on an empty street with an odd expression. His mind was jumbled from what he had just seen as he kept muttering to himself, They... they
Just then, Li Huowang heard another sound coming from the courtyard beside him. He imdiately went into stealth mode once again. Then, he climbed over a nearby wall, and once again used his hands to peel open the paper window.
Soon, Li Huowang noticed a thin man in the room. The man was sitting on the edge of the bed, tilting his head back while ripping open his garnts like a bat being dissected. He shalessly displayed himself to the woman in front of him.
The mans expression appeared quite uneasy; it was as if he was awaiting so sort of impending judgnt. My wife Darling... how is it? Has it shrunk at all?
The woman carefully examined him for a mont, and then replied in an uncertain voice, I think... it probably hasnt gotten smaller.
Hearing those words, the man instantly beca agitated. Liar!! Ive asured it myself! Its over! Tying it up with a rope wont help! Im going to beco an eunuch soon!
Upon hearing her husband say this, the woman couldnt help but feel anxious. Then... then what should we do? Does tying it up with a rope not help at all?
Upon hearing those words amidst his desperation, the man suddenly pounced on his wife and knocked her to the ground. At the sa ti, anger replaced the sadness on his face. Damn it! No way! I havent even gotten a son yet! You must give birth to a son for right away!
As Li Huowang watched this situation, coupled with the boy tied to the pillar he had seen earlier, he finally started to grasp what they were all up to. He stood back up with a strange expression on his face.
So, everyone in this county is afraid of that... No wonder they were forcefully using chains earlier. But how is that possible?
Suddenly, he felt a chill run down his spine.
Wait a minute, is all this... really happening or is all this just an act?
Ah! Dear! You hurt ! Its locked now!
The womans cry of pain made Li Huowang look back into the room once again. There was not much to see among the tangled masses of pale flesh and blood. However, after a mont, Li Huowang noticed the chain close to the woman's chest.
Compared to the silver lock and chain he saw earlier, this family could only afford iron ones.
The sharp chain was tightly wrapped around the womans chest, forcefully pulling at her bosom, causing abrasions and bleeding where the skin t the tal chain. Rust had started to form as the blood continued to erode the chain. This device was basically torture.
With this, Li Huowang finally understood where the scent of blood and rust on the woman from earlier ca from. They'd all been locking up to stop their organs from shrinking.
Dear, dont panic. Look at , Ive locked it with a chain, so that it wont retract. You should do the satie it up with a chain, just like .
Both the man and the woman are retracting here. Just what kind of situation could have caused them to beco like this?
Thinking about this, Li Huowangs heart felt heavier. Even with his extensive knowledge, he had never seen this kind of strange change before.
Li Huowang suddenly felt lost. Though he now understood what the residents of the county were terrified of, he did not know exactly what had caused all of this. While he was capable of dealing with the other issues, when it ca to sothing so illogical, he couldnt even find a target to address.
Li Huowang stood on the roof, looking over the empty county. After a while, he stepped off the tiles beneath his feet and headed straight toward the inn.
No more dawdling! Who knows what caused all this. We must quickly find the reason!
In Li Huowangs eyes, the entire county now seed like a trap. Even if it ant having to use unconventional techniques, it would still be better than sitting around idly while waiting for catastrophe.
Although the people in the county knew that sothing was wrong, they were deliberately trying to keep it from him. Since diplomacy wasnt working, it was ti to resort to more forceful thods.
As soon as Li Huowang entered the inn, he noticed the mbers of the Lu Family Troupe singing a pink show in the inn's empty lobby. Even though there werent many people, there were still a few spectators.
Puppy was sitting with his legs crossed as snuggled with the pear-faced woman while watching the pink show with joy. Seeing Li Huowang, he waved his hand, signaling Li Huowang to co over. Senior Li, co here! The Lu Family Troupes performance has grown considerably more fascinating!
Li Huowang glanced at him, then turned and walked toward his room, his voice carrying a hint of coldness, Puppy, have the waiter co to my room.
Alright!
