Chapter 48 Healing?
Three months have passed in the Hecheng Prison in the blink of an eye. Li Menglong has now become accustomed to this kind of prison life. Apart from the daily torture that makes him a little scared, the rest of the time he has been quite happy, chatting with "weirdos" every day,
Bragging, eating and drinking without worries.
"Weird" is the name Li Menglong gave to the man next door.
After these three months of getting along and observing, Li Menglong discovered that the "weirdo" seemed to be suffering from severe "amnesia" and could not remember anything about his past. Occasionally, he remembered some fragments, which were incomplete and irrelevant.
.
For some reason, in the past month, Li Liang came to "visit" Li Menglong less and less. When the jailer saw that Li Liang was not coming, he did not bother to "take care of" Li Menglong. After all, jailers are also human beings, and beating people is very tiring.
But this made Li Menglong take a big breath.
There is a saying that goes well: "Without comparison, there is no harm."
Different from the days when Li Menglong's skin was bruised all day long, the life of a "weirdo" was really leisurely and enviable. He only ate and slept all day long. Occasionally he would wake up and discuss life with Li Menglong, and "care about" Li Menglong's injuries.
Not long after Li Menglong arrived, the "weirdo's" eating conditions have been greatly improved, because every time the jailer gave Li Menglong a steamed bun, he would forcefully take off half of it, and he would also euphemistically say: "Eat more and you will suffer."
Don’t waste food.” But I didn’t see him eating less than anyone else. On the contrary, he ate more than anyone else and didn’t work even after eating even more.
Of course, Li Menglong was not willing to give him the steamed buns from the beginning. That was due to an incident two months ago...
That time, Li Menglong was dragged into the interrogation room as a "routine" procedure. It happened that Li Liang was also there that day.
The jailer was like beating chicken blood. With the first whip, Li Menglong felt a sharp pain on his back. The pain was not as good as before. He felt like there were countless iron nails hitting his back. Li Menglong was caught off guard and howled miserably.
After the jailer whipped him, he came to Li Liang in a flattering manner and asked for credit.
"Sir, please see, this is my newly made whip. I call it 'Caltrop Whip'. You see, the main body of this whip is tied with thin ropes. During the knotting process, the caltrops are tied on it.
One stroke of this whip is more effective than a hundred strokes of that leather whip..."
Li Liang was very happy when he heard this, and immediately rewarded the jailer five taels of silver. The jailer was overjoyed, and then he raised the iron caltrop whip with all his strength...
That night, Li Menglong wandered between coma and wakefulness countless times. When he was carried back, he was already unconscious. After the jailer applied the golden sore medicine on him, he threw him on the straw pile and ignored him.
.
It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that Li Menglong woke up. When he woke up, he felt his mouth was dry and his back was burning.
When he looked sideways, he saw the "weirdo" staring at him eagerly. Li Menglong was frightened and said angrily in a very weak tone: "You... want to... scare me to death... ah..." It seemed as if he was speaking.
The wound was touched again, and Li Menglong hissed in pain.
"No, I just want to see when you will wake up?" "Weird Man" said with his big eyes staring at Li Menglong.
"What...are you going to do..." Li Menglong asked doubtfully.
"Hehe... I'm not doing anything, just... if you wake up, just hand me that steamed bun. It's been left out all night. It must be hard and not tasty. You definitely don't want to eat it, but you can't waste it.
Right, hehe..." "Weirdo" pointed at a yellow steamed bun placed next to Li Menglong's cell door and said.
The more Li Menglong listened, the more angry he became. He thought to himself: "I've been beaten like this, why don't you say hello to me? You said you don't care about me, let it go, but you actually asked me to get you steamed buns?"
"No!" Li Menglong turned his head away angrily and ignored him.
"Unless you can heal my injury..." At the end, Li Menglong added.
"What if I could heal your injury..." About a quarter of an hour later, faint words came.
Li Menglong was shocked when he heard it for the first time. When he turned around, he saw the "weird man" staring at him with bright eyes.
"Just you? Tsk!" Li Menglong snorted with his nose in disdain, wanting to turn his mouth to the base of his ears.
"If you can heal my injury now, from now on, I will give you half of the steamed buns for every meal, okay, cut..." Li Menglong provoked the "weirdo" with contemptuous words.
"You don't regret it?" Unexpectedly, the "weirdo" asked with a serious look on his face.
"A gentleman's words are hard to chase!" Li Menglong was a little angry at him.
"You make it sound like you can do it, yay!" Li Menglong thought to himself.
"Okay! It's a deal!" "Weirdo" clapped his hands, looking quite excited.
"You come here first..."
"what?"
"Healing!"
"No, you still take it seriously!"
"Come on, stop talking nonsense!"
"Just stay here, my whole body hurts when I move..."
