Chapter 15 - Chapter fifteen

< Release>

Zhang felt his tongue tested bitter from the medicine he was being fed on but yet that wasn't the wrost part

His blue eyes focused on the bars right in front of him and the poor straw mat he sat on with a sigh

" What a life "

He mummer adjusting his posture only for the clicking sound of chains which accompany his movement remembered him of his situation clearly

Being a prisoner was nothing short but hell

Apart from being dragged here and locked up like an animal he was forced to stay in one of the dirtiest cell

At least that's what he thought mostly after smelling the poop which was pile like a mountain at the far end to his right which was enough for him to punk on his robe

At first he had thought it was due to his mother death .

but unfortunately it wasn't, at first he was in doubt but later realized the clan leader was actually covering his sin by wearing a green hat on his head

he could only sat there with a black expression

" The old man was hard to understand was he protecting him or killing him ? "

He mummer under his breath linking his dry lips with a frown just remembering how thirsty and hungry he have been for the past two days

" The strange cries of help accompany with the howling and screaming of other prisoners who were being tortured elsewhere always reminded him he might be next

Which was enough to make him shiver just thinking about the possibility of him being one of those receiving such treatment

Though the guards were extremely rude and would occasionally refuse him food and water

He was good at least he was glad to go through a hungry feast than to die on the thought of torture

" You !! "

Zhang wei eyes narrow at the guard who was dressed uniformly like the rest however what differences him from the rest was his pot size belly and tin skin

" Here wear this "

He said softly tossing a new set of white robe towards zhang wei who frowned upon listening to him

" Why !! "

He managed to asked only to receive a irritating look

" The clan leader is coming to see you quickly change into that set so we will take you to him

He clicked his tongue matching away leaving zhang wei speechless

" What does this man want first he imprisoned him now he wish to see him "

Zhang wei felt confused but I was soon brought out from his thoughts listening to the clicking sounds of keys follow with the loud sound of old iron being pushed

Apart from the first guard a second follow from behind with a bowl of soup with grain

" Your meal "

The second guard call out to zhang wei

who withdraw a bit further in fright ,

the clothes he might understand but the food was suspicious itself

From his years back in his former world reading and watching historical movies

The food always delivered to the prison in those movies or novels were always poison and for that he was quite sure someone also wanted to use that method on him .

" Young master sixth "

The young man called out to him with a warm smile only for Zhang wei to withdraw even further

" Leave it there "

He pointed a distance a bit further from himself though the guard was surprised he still follow order

Feeling both his hands light from the weight of the chains

he finally noticed the handcuffs were off his hands but unfortunately the blisters were still there in evidence of his mistreatment

" Be quick we will be waiting outside"

With that both Walk out without even locking the bars

" Strange "

That was the only thought on his already exhausted mind

Zhang wei yawn rubbing both eyes in tiredness he haven't even slept a wink due to fear but now he just wanted to sleep

" Not yet "

He gently pat his cheeks to stay awake his eyes soon landed on the new set of robe delighted,

He was extremely pleased with the thought of changing into a new set of clean cloth that wasn't stained with vomit and mud

As for the meal he wasn't stupid enough to touch it

" Who knows what kind of poison they put in it, though he was guilty he still wanted to live "

He was after all aware of the amount of people who wish him dead mostly the Elders

With such thought he changed into the new set of robe with a delightful expression feeling less disgusted but soon frowned at the whiteness of his hair

He had once again forgotten about the strange color of his hair

At first he was a bit shocked and scared from the sudden change,

but after two days of him staring numbly on the tips of his white hair

he now felt it wasn't much a big deal , though it do bother him Zhang wei didn't mourn much for his once black shining hair

" Young master "

The young guard call head bow in a gesture of respect

" The cian leader is already waiting at the side room please follow me "

He gesture to zhang wei who nodded

" Lead the way "

His voice dry but commanding was enough for the guard to move forward only for Zhang wei to tag along

" I still wish to ask some questions "

He thought before disappearing from the cell
