Star road

After living in the Xiao family for decades, it was the first time for Qi Shuhua to enter the dungeon directly belonging to the head of the family.

Except for the current Patriarch, no one can enter here, including the previous Patriarch.

The gatekeeper came forward to salute the head of the house.

What surprised Qi Shuhua was that there were no well-equipped bodyguard handles at the entrance of the rumored mysterious cell, and the only gatekeeper there was a deaf-mute old man.

Next, he understood the reason - only the owner of the cell can open the door of the cell.

Xiao Ye nodded indifferently, and the gatekeeper stepped aside tremblingly. He first verified his fingerprints, and then pressed his finger on the depression next to the lock with his finger representing the identity of the Patriarch. There was a sound of mechanism starting, and the door slowly opened.

Xiao Ye raised his foot and signaled Qi Shuhua to follow, which showed his trust in him.

A few steps after the two walked in, the door closed automatically.Qi Shuhua looked back, there was no trace of a lock on the back of the door, not even a crack in the door, it looked like a secret room.

I always feel that this place is not like a prison cell, but like a treasure room, which is extremely confidential.

It is impossible for Qi Shuhua to know that besides the prison cell, there is another purpose here.At this moment, he only felt Xiao Ye's trust in him, and was moved by it.

Feet on the ground, the voice is slow and empty.

People who are usually imprisoned at the end will feel an invisible desire and pressure when they hear this voice.

Because there is no one in there except the only prisoner.The prisoner wanted to see someone, but he was afraid that someone would bring him worse treatment.

When he reached the iron fence at the end, Xiao Ye stopped and stared coldly inside.

Inside was a man in ragged clothes, with mottled wounds that showed that he had been tortured.The wound was not treated.

Qi Shuhua is an expert, and he can see that those injuries are all on the surface. The man has strong muscles, a strong body, and has received good training. He can endure such a small injury for a long time.

The man bowed his head, as if asleep.

Xiao Ye stood still, there was an inexplicably chilling atmosphere in the air, Qi Shuhua held his breath.

"Don't dare to see me?" After a long time, Xiao Ye said coldly, "Raise your head."

The man trembled for a moment, and slowly lifted up that rigid yet honest face.

"A Biao..." Qi Shuhua's pupils shrank.Never thought that the person locked inside would be A Biao!Isn't A Biao the young master's personal bodyguard?Because of trust, he was sent out to protect Xiaoxing for a long time, and he was not transferred back until two years ago.What mistake did he make?How can you be locked up here?

"Master." A Biao's voice was hoarse after he hadn't spoken for a long time.

"Don't call me young master." There was no emotion.

"Master, I..."

"I am not your master. Your master has always been only father, right? I think you have been with me for so long, and I will give you another chance to say, what exactly does father want to do?"

The flames in A Biao's eyes were extinguished, he pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, his face was lifeless like a piece of iron.

Xiao Ye became angry when he saw it.What's the matter?As a fake loyal dog who has been undercover for 20 years, what right does he have to act like this?Although he is usually indifferent, he seldom loses his temper, but today he is really angry.

"Let me see how loyal you are, a white-eyed wolf! Do you think your father will save you? Dreaming! He can even kill blood relatives, how can he care about a dog's life!!"

As a private prison, there are many kinds of instruments of torture.Xiao Ye pressed a button on the wall, and A Biao's strong body was suspended in midair.

It turned out that his limbs had been bound all the time, and the button could control the height of his hoisting at will.

At this moment, he was completely suspended in the air, and the weight of his body was concentrated on his arms, pulling on the tendons that had already been overwhelmed.

Taking a whip, Xiao Ye mercilessly whipped it away!A Biao's body swayed, almost without a pause, and the second whip hit his head again!

Amidst the loud slapping sound, there were occasional men who suppressed muffled hums.

After about a dozen lashes in a row, A Biao's clothes were almost completely torn, and only two strips of cloth were hung on his arms.His body was bloody and his head drooped limply.

Xiao Ye was obviously very angry, he hit his hand hard, and he didn't stay strong with every whip.

"Master, if you continue to beat him, he will die." Qi Shuhua couldn't help but stop him.Xiao Ye glanced back, his eyes were as cold as everlasting ice and snow, choking all his persuasion to death in his throat.

From their conversation just now, Qi Shuhua probably discerned something. This time, the young master was really angry.

But Xiao Ye still stopped, his breathing was slightly disordered.

"Wake up with salt water!" he ordered.

A Biao's wound was stimulated by the salt water, and he opened his eyes feebly, "Master, kill me..."

Because of the whipping just now, Xiao Ye's anger was obviously calmed down, "A Biao, how many years have you been with me?"

"...22."

"Yes, you have been with me since you were 15 years old. I personally selected you group of people, and got rid of the problematic ones. I didn't expect you to make a mistake. Should it be said that you have too much stamina, or that I know how to deal with it? Unclear? Tell me, have I ever treated you badly?"

"..."

"The worst mistake in my life was believing in you wrongly and putting Xing'er in danger! Xing'er is so kind and treats you as a family member, yet you are willing to hurt him."

"I didn't!" A Biao raised his head excitedly, "I didn't mean to hurt Master Chen!"

"No? You reported Xing'er's existence to your father, and you are hurting him!"

A Biao lost his strength at once, the criss-crossing scars all over his body made him look embarrassed and decadent, "Master Chen is the grandson of the master, he will not harm him..."

"You are so naive! He can even kill his own children, let alone a grandson who should have disappeared in this world long ago!"

"Master! You mean..." Hearing this, Qi Shuhua exclaimed.

Xiao Ye turned a deaf ear and threw a photo in front of A Biao.He accepted what Xiao Tingran was going to do to him, the other party was his father after all.But he only wanted to hurt the people around him, one after another, he couldn't bear it anymore!

As soon as A Biao saw the photo, he was stunned.It turns out that the young master already knew...

The person in the photo is handsome and tall, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth.His name is A Xuan, and he has known A Biao since childhood.

Both Ah Xuan and A Biao believed in Xiao, who was Xiao Tingran's surname.They were all orphans selected by Xiao Tingran when they were a few years old.It is equivalent to saying that Xiao Tingran has been kind to them in rebuilding, without Xiao Tingran, they would have starved to death on the street long ago.They will repay with a lifetime of gratitude.

Although, Xiao Tingran only used them as pawns.

Before the age of 15, they lived in an isolated mountain forest and never showed their faces outside.The people I see every day are the coaches in charge of training. After the age of 15, the two received their first and only mission one after another - to go undercover to Xiao Yin and Xiao Ye's two siblings, and report their situation at any time.

A Xuan followed Xiao Yin's side, saw the truth in adversity through repeated adventures, and gained Xiao Yin's trust and affection.Ah Xuan loved Xiao Yin, but had to report Xiao Yin's news against his will, and gradually fell into a swamp of pain.But although Xiao Tingran had the news, he never did anything unfavorable to Xiao Yin, so he comforted himself thinking that they are biological father and daughter, not enemies, tigers are poisonous, the master has information about the children, There should be no malice.

This fluke psychology finally ushered in a devastating result.

Everything went smoothly.

After Qingqing became pregnant, she sought Xiao Yin's help. Ah Xuan believed that the news had nothing to do with Xiao Yin's safety, so she reported it. As a result, the news was leaked, and Qingqing and her child were kidnapped.Then, under Xiao Tingran's instructions, Ah Xuan slowed down Xiao Yin's steps to save people...

Maybe Ah Xuan didn't think he made a mistake this time, and he didn't want Xiao Yin to take risks for Qingqing.

Or he noticed the unusual intimacy between Xiao Yin and Qingqing, so he chose to betray.

But he didn't know that for Xiao Yin, Qingqing's death due to her own negligence was equivalent to digging a hole in her heart, and even if she didn't die, she lost half her life.

What's more, with Xiao Yin's cleverness, he quickly guessed that the matter had something to do with the person next to him.

So Xiao Yin would rather die than live.

When Ah Xuan died, Ah Biao was watching from the side, watching his calm expression, watching Xiao Yin shoot his head off with a decisive shot...

At that time, A Biao didn't understand that he was going to die, so why did he look relieved?You must know that in the past, they would rather be other people's dogs in order to live.

But now he understood.

He didn't want to hurt Master Chen, but he had to report his existence. Just like Ah Xuan, he was caught in a dilemma.

I can only think by luck, that is the grandson of the master, the master will not hurt him...

A Biao has long suspected the true relationship between Chen Xing and Xiao Ye.He had met Qingqing before, and at first he thought Xiao Ye was empathetic, but it didn't take long for Xiao Ye's attitude to explain everything.

Having been close to Xiao Ye for many years, it is impossible to not even know this habit.

But he just suspected, without evidence.

At that time, Xiao Ye hadn't sent him to Chen Xing's side, and had no communication with Chen Xing, so he reported all these things to Xiao Tingran with peace of mind.

After getting in touch with Chen Xing, he gradually developed feelings for this kind-hearted young man, especially Chen Xing treated him like a relative, which made him feel the warmth he never had before.

He regretted it, but it was too late.

The kidnapping in Mera City made A Biao alert.He wondered if it was the result of Xiao Tingran's deliberate guidance, but after thinking about it, what benefits could Xiao Tingran gain by doing so?There is no reason, he has no reason to help the traitors of the Xiao family...

Seeing that the young man lost a lot of blood and almost died, he wanted to report the suspicion in his heart to Xiao Ye, but he couldn't betray Xiao Tingran.And he has no proof.

What if he guessed wrong?What should I do if the relationship between father and son is froze?

Fortunately, after returning from Europe, he was transferred back, Master Chen was still alive and well, and A Biao's heart gradually calmed down.

However, before he was calm for a long time, he suddenly received instructions from Xiao Tingran...

That instruction made him miserable.

Thanks to his self-hypnosis for so long: the master will not hurt his grandson.

I don't know how the young master found out, but before he could make a decision from the pain, he was arrested.

It doesn't matter if you get caught, if you get caught, you don't have to force yourself to make a decision.

"Master, kill me, kill me..."

Ah Biao deeply felt Ah Xuan's mood.

Only death can free you.
