In the dungeon.
Shen Nanxing had his hands and feet tied with iron chains and was hung in the air.
There was a deep pool under her feet, pitch black and bottomless, but she could hear the hissing sound of snakes spitting out apricots, as well as the dense and cold friction sounds, and vaguely saw countless slender black shadows swimming.
It looks even more eerie and terrifying in the dark night.
A tall man wearing a ghost mask with a green face and fangs stood in front of her with a whip in his hand, sneering.
"Tell me, how do you want to die?"
"Do you want to be cut into pieces, or do you want to be turned into a human pig?"
"Or, become a meal for my little darlings?"
The lips under the ghost mask curled up slightly, and one hand pointed at the black pool under Shen Nanxing's feet.
The sound was hoarse and harsh, like the crackling of rust in the ears, making people extremely uncomfortable.
Shen Nanxing's expression was very calm, and his black eyes looked straight at the ghost-faced man: "Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?"
"Hehehe, I'm about to die, and you still care about who I am?"
"But since you don't choose, I'll choose for you..."
The ghost-faced man rubbed his hands together. "Tsk, tsk, it's so hard to choose! No matter which of these three ways of dying, it's hard to give up!"
"Let me think about it. Since there are three of you, why not..."
"Don't touch them!" Shen Nanxing shouted, "Your target is me, let them go!"
"Oh?" The man with the ghost face seemed to be a little interested.
"You care so much about them, but I wonder if they would even think about you when faced with life and death?"
"What are you going to do?" Shen Nanxing looked at him warily.
The ghost-faced man's eyes flashed with excitement. He paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and there was a twisted smile in his hoarse voice.
"Come here, bring those two people over!"
Shen Nanxing's heart tightened, and he shouted sternly: "You can kill them or chop them up, it's all up to you! They are both innocent, let them go!"
But the man with the ghost face ignored her completely. Soon, with the clanging sound of iron chains dragging on the ground and the creaking sound of iron doors opening, Hu Lin and his sister were escorted in.
The two were struggling and shouting, but as soon as they entered the room, they saw Shen Nanxing hanging in the air and began to struggle even more violently.
"Nanxing, Nanxing, how are you?" Hu Lin's eyes were filled with anxiety, and he struggled with the chains on his body, making a loud noise. "Put her down!"
"Sister Nanxing..."
Hu Shuang'er's tears quickly fell, and she glared at the ghost-faced man standing beside her with red eyes: "Ugly freak, put my sister Nanxing down!"
Shen Nanxing's eyes were red as he looked at the Hu Lin siblings who were pinned to the ground and almost unable to move, and anger rose in his heart.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"I told you your target is me, don't implicate others, can't you hear me?"
The man with the ghost face pretended not to hear anything and just looked at Hu Lin and his sister with a pair of cold eyes.
"Hehehe, it's not impossible for me to let her go."
"But!" he changed the subject, "one of you has to die for her!"
Hu Lin immediately said, "Take my life, and let them go!"
"Hu Lin, stop talking nonsense!"
"Brother, no!"
Two female voices sounded at the same time.
Shen Nanxing was extremely anxious: "Hu Lin, listen to me, his target was originally me, it has nothing to do with you, you can't replace him!"
Then he turned to look at the ghost-faced man: "Everyone has their own responsibility. The person you want to kill is me, don't hurt innocent people!"
"Besides, they are the children of imperial officials. If you harm them, the imperial court will surely fight you to the death. Why would you make yourself an enemy?"
The ghost-faced man then cast a glance at her: "What about you? You are the Princess of Jing, and the legitimate daughter of the Nanyang Marquisate. If I kill you, won't Beiyue seek revenge on me?"
Shen Nanxing's eyes dimmed slightly, and he chuckled softly: "You don't have to worry about this. Prince Jing has someone else he loves, and he has already divorced me. Naturally, he won't care whether I live or die."
"As for the Nanyang Marquisate, Shen Yuan only cares about his two children born to his concubine. He will not make enemies with anyone for me. You can rest assured."
"Oh? Really?" The ghost-faced man laughed again, "But why did I hear that old fellow Shen Qinghai loves you the most?"
Shen Nanxing's breathing stagnated, and he lowered his eyes: "My grandfather is old and now bedridden. Even if he wanted to avenge me, what could he do to you?"
As she spoke, she suddenly raised her head and sneered, "Or are you afraid of my grandfather?"
The ghost-faced man paused, a fierce light flashing in his eyes: "He's just a frail old man. Why would I be afraid of him?"
"Since you are not afraid, then kill me!"
Shen Nanxing's eyes flushed red: "Let them both go, otherwise, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"
"Sister Nanxing..." After hearing what Shen Nanxing said, Hu Shuang'er felt a great pain in her heart and tears fell one by one.
She looked up at the ghost-faced man and kowtowed to him: "Please, let Sister Nanxing go! I am willing to die for her..."
Hu Lin grabbed her and said, "Shuang'er, stop talking nonsense!"
He looked at the ghost-faced man again: "I, Hu Lin, am a man of seven feet tall. How can I hide behind a woman? Just kill me!"
"Brother!" Hu Shuang'er burst into tears. "You are the only son in our family. You must live! I don't like to listen to my parents and always give them a headache. I am the most useless person in our family..."
"Ugly freak, stop wasting time! If you want to kill someone, kill me!" Hu Shuang'er's eyes were red, and she tilted her neck back and closed her eyes. "Go ahead!"
"Hu Lin, Hu Shuang'er, both of you shut up!"
"Live well, this is a military order!"
Shen Nanxing stared directly at the ghost-faced man: "If you don't dare to kill me, you must be afraid of my grandfather!"
The ghost-faced man seemed angry: "What a joke! Would I be afraid of an old man like him?"
"If you're not afraid, prove it to me!"
Before he finished speaking, a huge pressure suddenly emanated from the ghost-faced man.
Hu Lin and Hu Shuang'er suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Blood was also flowing out of the corner of Shen Nanxing's mouth, and a trail of blood was flowing down the corner of his mouth.
But she gritted her teeth and still looked at the ghost-faced man provocatively: "If you have the guts, do it!"
The ghost-faced man made a claw-shaped right hand, condensed his internal strength into a ball, suddenly raised his hand, and slapped Shen Nanxing.
