After waiting for more than a cup of tea in the dark room, the old man who was pounding the medicine pot poured the mixture from the medicine pot into the pot which was boiling water nearby. Then he poured the water from another pot that seemed to have been burning for a while into an empty bowl on the table.

"Of green!" Lion Princess saw the potion in the bowl and could not help frowning, and also felt a little sick.

After pouring two bowls of liquid medicine, the old man put the pot back on the small stove which had been extinguished. Then he put a poisonous insect in one of the bowls, and then waved to the two people behind him to give the two bowls of medicine to the dead prisoner who was bound to drink them.

"Gulu Gulu..." the two dead prisoners did not make any resistance in the process of being filled with medicine, as if they were used to this behavior.

After the two prisoners had finished drinking the liquid medicine, the old man began to observe their reactions carefully.

As time went by, after half a cup of tea, the two prisoners seemed to be in the same state as before. However, as soon as the old man went back to the table and began to fill the medicine, people heard a violent crash.

Then they looked at the sound source, and found a dead prisoner began to violently twitch, and also hit the chair and the ground "thump" straight.

"Cough..." after another convulsion for a while, the dead prisoner began to foam at his mouth, and his eyes turned white. Then his face suddenly turned green as the potion, and the longer the convulsion time, the more green his face became.

Looking at the prisoner's painful appearance, the lion princess could not bear to look directly. However, after taking a peek at the people around her, she found that they were all looking at the dead prisoner without expression, as if they had been used to it.

"You... You people are not allowed to... Die!" The dead prisoner, who had been convulsing, suddenly uttered a word, then his head was crooked and motionless.

Seeing this, the old man seemed not to have heard the last words of the dead prisoner, but he directly waved his hand to the people behind him to carry the dead prisoner out. However, perhaps the old man was numb after listening to such last words.

"Do you have any thoughts now? Do you think it's cruel? " Xia houkun asked the lion princess who had been frowning slightly.

"It's a little bit cruel, but these dead prisoners don't deserve to die." The lion Princess answers somewhat tangled.

"I feel the same way. This experiment is just like Shennong's taste of all kinds of grass. It needs repeated attempts to get results. But I also asked brother Shi to keep it secret after he went out. Even Xiaoyu didn't know about it." Said Xia Hou Kun.

"Keep secret, that's for sure, but this... I heard that there have been missing people in Hezhou county. Is that... Also related to this?" Asked the lion princess.

"Of course, it's nothing. We're just experimenting with dead prisoners. As for the missing people in Hezhou County, I've investigated it before, but I still have no clue." Xia Hou Kun replied.

"So..." after the lion princess said, she saw that the old man had motioned two people to carry another dead prisoner out.

But just when they thought the prisoner was dead, the lion Princess found that the dead prisoner's finger moved slightly when it was moved.

"Ah A scream soon confirmed the lion princess's keen eyes. As soon as the prisoner was dragged to the door of the darkroom, he woke up immediately and bit his bloody eyes to the neck of a man who was dragging him.

"What's the situation?" Xia houkun looked at the man whose neck was bitten. He lay on the ground as if he had broken his breath, and there was still a lot of blood gushing from his neck. After the death prisoner bit one person, he bit at another.

"Be careful!" The lion Princess saw that the prisoner had bitten them, and then she rushed to Xia houkun who had not responded to him. Then she quickly held two crescent knives and stopped him.

The dead prisoner did not fear and dodge when she saw the lion princess's double swords. Then the lion princess cut the dead prisoner's body at will, and then an idea came into being.

"Ah After being kicked out of the dark room by the lion princess, the dead prisoner immediately got up and rushed in, and roared. The lion Princess rushed out of the dark room and reached the overhead corridor. Then she pretended to have cut the dead prisoner out of the corridor.

Then only listen to "Dong!" With a dull sound, the dead prisoner fell directly on the iron cage under the corridor, but then he quickly got up and jumped under the iron cage.

"Get him!" The old man also ran to the corridor. Seeing the prisoner trying to escape, he called out to Xia houkun's men. After Xia houkun waved his hand, his men ran to the other end of the corridor.

"I'll help, too." When Princess lion saw the direction of Xia houkun's men, she knew that the upper and lower floors must be connected. However, the lion princess also knew that running from the upper level to the lower level would inevitably waste a lot of time. Therefore, she directly jumped from the corridor to the iron cage, and then jumped to the ground to chase the dead prisoner.

However, the lion princess also took the opportunity to look back at the people in the iron cage when she landed. However, she found that they were still lying on the iron cage and lifeless. She did not even want to stand up and watch the excitement.The place where the iron cage of the dead prisoner was placed was a large open space, and the only place that could get in and out of the open space was also a dark road. So when the lion Princess saw that the dead prisoner ran into the tunnel, she ran after him with a candle on the wall.

The lion princess took the candle and went into the dark passage. She saw that the prisoner of death had just disappeared into the dark dark passage. Then she slowly groped in the dark passage. (the candle light of the little candle in the lion princess's hand can only illuminate the place around her)

originally, the lion Princess deliberately released the dead prisoner to create chaos inside, so that she could find useful clues from it. Therefore, she not only gropes around in the dark path to find the mechanism, but also has left marks on the dark path.

After walking for most of the time, the lion Princess saw that there was a fork in the road ahead. After leaving a mark at the fork in the road, she went to another dark road with no obvious footprints on the ground.

Then the lion Princess walked nearly a cup of tea, and found that there was a small light coming out not far from the front. Then she put out the candle in her hand and walked cautiously towards the light.

As it got closer and closer to the light, the lion Princess soon found out that the light was also the light of a candle, and it was coming from the crack of a door at the end of the dark road. Then she looked around the door and saw that there were no special traps around the door, and then she quickly walked towards the door.

"Iron!" When she reached the door and touched it, she realized that it was a big iron door, and there was a heavy lock on the door handle. Then she carefully observed the iron door and found that there was a lot of rust on the iron door. Therefore, she concluded that the iron door was not only closed with very important things, but also that the secret passage must have been built for a long time.

"Roar..." then when Princess lion was groping for the lock again, she heard a low roar coming from the iron door. Then she put her ear on the iron door, and then she heard the sound, like a very painful roar.

"Roar... Roar..." after listening carefully for a period of time, the lion Princess realized that it was like a person who had been tortured to roar all the time, but she could not hear other voices, so she could not infer what was going on inside.

The footstep of "dada Da..." suddenly rang out from the lion princess's ear lying on the iron door. Then she turned her head and saw that there was a group of fire lights gradually approaching her.

...

"go!" Several people with torches checked whether the big lock on the iron door was still firmly hung on the handle, and then they began to return the same way.

Then the lion Princess saw that these people had walked for a distance, and then she gently jumped down from the top of the tunnel wall, and then followed them carefully.

(the lion Princess just noticed that someone was coming, she jumped to the side of the tunnel wall, inserted her crescent knife into the stone crevice, and hung herself in the air to avoid these people)

"ah! Wait for me The lion Princess followed these people to leave the fork in the road and walked a part of the way, then ran up in a hurry. (these people left the fork in the road and went to another fork road which the lion princess had not gone before)

"lion young Xia!" These people turned to see the lion Princess running over, they also met up.

"How about it? Have you found the dead prisoner who ran away The lion Princess asked these people and recognized them as the people who had come in with Xia houkun.

"Yes, but how can you miss it, young lion?" One of them asked the lion princess.

"Well... After chasing for a period of time in the dark, I accidentally dropped the candle. Therefore, after I lost the candle, I could only feel the darkness slowly. So just after I saw the torch in your hand, I ran up." The lion Princess replied with some embarrassment. (the lion Princess actually threw the extinguished candle into her first dark path when she followed them to the fork in the road)

"in this way, the dead prisoner just fell to the ground and died not far ahead." One of them said.

"Well, in that case, you can take me to find Mr. Xia Hou." Said the lion princess.

...

"brother lion, are you ok?" Xia houkun or in the original to the prisoners of death in the dark room, see his men will lion Princess back, he immediately asked.

"I'm fine." The lion Princess replied, then pointed to the dead prisoner who had just been dragged back from the darkroom and asked, "is this dead prisoner OK?"
