Chapter 3

"Okay, Yang Youlan, you got big balls, right? How dare you interfere in my affairs!" The jailer turned his whip and swung it towards Yang Youlan.

There was another "pa, pa, pa," muffled sound, accompanied by Yang Youlan's shrill scream. The pleader suffered for no reason, and no one dared to plead again.

After a while, Li Donghong screamed, "Master, she's dead!"

The jailer said nonchalantly, "I'll just beat someone to death, and have less mouth to feed. What's the big deal?"

Yan Shuixin stayed behind the iron bars of her cell, leaning her head slightly, she saw the jailer dragging a female corpse out of another cell thirty meters away, but still didn't forget to lock the cell.

"Anyone who dares to make any more noise will face death!" the jailer threatened while looking around in the aisle of prison cells.

In an instant, the people in the cell, which was still a little noisy, were all as quiet as a mouse.

Yan Shuixin knew clearly that she was in prison, and her fate was obviously no different from that of the female prisoner Yang Youlan who was beaten to death.

She should be more careful.

The jailer dragged Yang Youlan's body like a dead dog, and walked a few steps towards the long prison hallway. Seemingly remembering something, he dropped the body and walked towards the cell where Yan Shuixin was.

Yan Shuixin's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately left the iron bars and laid down in a corner of the cell.

Originally, she wanted to pretend to be dead, but she was afraid that if she frightened the jailer, he would beat her into a real corpse.

She thought about it, and just sat down against the wall

As the footsteps got closer, Yan Shuixin saw the jailer in the uniform of a government official walking outside her cell.

The man with the broken leg lying in the cell covered himself with hay on the ground. Yan Shuixin guessed that he didn't want people to see him without pants. However, his pants must be removed to see the leg injury. Therefore, she did not feel sorry.

After the jailer stood still outside the cell, he could clearly smell the stench of feces and urine in the cell through the vertical iron bars.

First, he covered his nose in disgust, and his arrogant eyes slid around the man with a broken leg in the prison. Seeing that the man was covered with hay, he didn't take it seriously.

The jailer glanced at Yan Shuixin, and said suspiciously, "Yan Shuixin, are you still alive? I planned to come over to collect your body."

Although Yan Shuixin had read the original book, because the name of the jailer in the book was somewhat unknown, she did not know what this jailer is called.

Not daring to be curious, she whispered, "I'm not dead yet, I dare not to trouble master." Using a respectful title can never go wrong.

"You're lucky." The jailer snorted, and then saw two bowls of urine and rotten rice on the ground, "Why don't you eat the wedding presents prepared for you?"

Yan Shuixin was furious when he mentioned this. She could only hold back her temper and say nicely, "Thank you for the reward."

She didn't 't dare to say if it was good to eat or not, in case the jailer told her to eat it on the spot, it would be over.

Glancing at Ye Heng, Yan Shuixin plucked up her courage and said, "Master, you see that he is injured, can you find a doctor to show him..."

The jailer cast a disdainful look at the disabled Ye Heng, "Don't mention it, Doctor Huang in the prison is dead, even if he was alive, he is a cripple, what kind of doctor can he get, just a waste of medicine."

Yan Shuixin was furious when she heard this. Those with disability also need treatment! She really want to kill this jailer, but unfortunately, now is not the time to be tough.

"Be obedient!" the jailer yelled impatiently while standing in the passage, and turned to leave.

Yan Shuixin hurriedly called to him, "Master, I have something to say."

At present, there is no way to get water and medicine to treat Ye Heng, so she can only think of other ways.

The jailer glared at her sharply, "Shut up! If you delay my time, I will beat you to death!"

Yan Shuixin is a resilient person, and she doesn't mind the other party's brutality, "Master.. . look... " She gestured to the environment in the prison, "The stench in this prison is reeking, Xiao Yeheng is seriously injured, and it is not convenient to tidy up the prison. I am almost suffocated to death."

Xiao Yeheng heard the words, and sharp light flashed in his eye. 'This damn woman thinks he stinks!!' But after thinking about it, anyone would hate it. He reluctantly closed his eyes, which only had one eye that was able to see.

Yan Shuixin paused for a moment, and continued, "I want to fetch water to clean the cell."

Walking to the railing in the cell, she pointed towards the dust in the cell corridor outside, "By the way, I can also clean the corridor too. This will make your walking more comfortable, sir."

After hearing this, the jailer agreed, "Indeed, your cell is extremely smelly. If it hadn't been for the fact that I thought you've died, I wouldn't want to come here at all."

"As long as you allow, this slave will clean." Yan Shuixin replied with a flattering tone. Only in this way can she get water for Xiao Yeheng to drink.

If you haven't eaten or drunk for three days, you may die of dehydration and starvation.

"I want to let you out but..." The jailer hesitated.

Yan Shuixin pointed to herself, "Master, look, the little one is so weak that it's hard to walk. Are you afraid that the little one will run away?"

"That's right." The jailer said disdainfully, "Even if you had the guts, you wouldn't dare to flee."

"That's true." Yan Shuixin nodded sharply.

The jailer opened the cell door and commanded, "After cleaning up, go back to your cell and stay there."

"Yes." She nodded.

"Follow me to the utility room outside." The jailer walked forward first, followed by Yan Shuixin.

Xiao Yeheng saw Yan Shuixin leave the prison cell and thought she was about to escape. He thought to himself, 'That's a dead end.'

Yan Shuixin saw that he finally took a glance at her, so she smiled and raised her hand to greet him silently.

He turned his head away sarcastically.

She was not annoyed, and obediently followed the jailer for about thirty meters. The jailer asked her to drag Yang Youlan's body across the floor. Yan Shuixin is a doctor. She is used to dead people, so she's not afraid of corpses.

She dragged Yang Youlan's body for a few steps, then fell to the ground, shaking her head, " Master, I really can't move it."

Now her body is too weak, and she really has no strength to go any further.

"Waste!" The jailer scolded and dragged the dead body out in person.

'This trash, I'll remember what you said!' Yan Shuixin lowered her eyelids slightly, covering the anger in her eyes. She got up and followed the jailer, and walked all the way through the long dark corridor.

There are one cell on both sides, and there are three or five or six or seven prisoners in each cell.

As she walked, she looked around casually. There are about 300 male prisoners in all the cells, and only 30 female prisoners. Male and female prisoners are separated. Only she and Xiao Yeheng, the newlyweds, were locked together.

If you are detained in prison with the opposite gender, you will be deemed as a husband and wife, right?

The aisle turned a corner and they arrived at a jailer's duty room with the door open.

Another male jailer in his thirties was sitting in front of the table eating melon seeds. When he saw the guard carrying the dead body next to him, he said blankly, "Li Dian, you killed someone again."

Now Yan Shuixin knew that the jailer who beat Yang Youlan to death was named Li Dian.

Li Dian looked indifferent, and snorted coldly, "I'm going to throw the body away, so troublesome."

The jailer in the duty room looked at Yan Shuixin and asked Li Dian, "Why did you get this bitch out?"

"Isn't Lao Zhao sick? Let her sweep the floor."

The jailer on duty didn't say much. He looked at Yan Shuixin contemptuously, as if he was not worried that this weak woman would run away.

Li Dian pointed to the dead body he was dragging, "This body is so heavy, Wang Mo, help me."

The prison guard named Wang Mo on duty carried the body out of the door next to the duty room.

Yan Shuixin memorized Wang Mo's name. In order to know more about this dark prison.

She followed in their footsteps and saw that they were leaving through the outer wall door of the prison in front, without looking back.

She hurriedly sneaked into the duty room, grabbed a handful of melon seeds on the table and hid them in her sleeve pocket, then came out immediately, pretending to be nonchalant and followed behind.

Fortunately, the two guards didn't notice her little move.

For Xiao Yeheng, who has been hungry for three days, it is also good to have a handful of melon seed to eat.

As for herself...

She guessed that her body has only been hungry for a day, so it's not that urgent.

After leaving the outer door of the prison, she finally saw the warm sun outside. Just as Yan Shuixin came out of the dark cell, she was dazzled by the strong light for a moment. The golden light shines on the earth, the temperature is appropriate, and a warm wind blows, making people feel extremely comfortable.

Judging from this climate, it should be the beginning of summer. Judging from the sky, it's about eight o'clock in the morning.

It used to be very dark in prison, but now the sun has come out.

In front of the prison is a very wide open space, with a wall about five meters high around, and the top of the wall is also embedded with inverted iron spikes. Obviously to prevent the prisoner from escaping from prison. There is a two-story stone house on the left in front of the vacant lot, with only wooden windows. There are still prison guards' clothes hanging on the window frame for drying

It seems that this is the prison guard's dormitory. In the center of the open space is a tower about four square meters wide and tens of meters high. On the top of the tower, stood a guard. There's no need to mention that this outpost was the best view of the prison in all directions.

Li Dian, the jailer, pointed to the first door of the low room on the right in front of him, "That's the utility room. You can carry water from the well at the back of the house. Go there by yourself."

"Yes." Yan Shuixin nodded meekly.

Li Dian added, "Don't run around, don't take things indiscriminately except cleaning tools, otherwise...you will die!"

"Yes." Yan Shuixin nodded again.

After the two guards carried Yang Youlan's body in another direction, she quickly walked to a row of low houses not far away. Pushing open the door of the first room, she saw a rag, several wooden buckets, a broom, and a bamboo dustpan inside.

Not even a single thing that could be used as a weapon. She had to get a knife to cut off the infected skin on Ye Heng's leg.

After entering the door of the utility room, she purposely closed the door so that the guards would not see what was going on inside.

After flipping through things, she only found a palm-sized, rusty small shovel in the corner of the wall. She didn't dare to run around or look for a knife elsewhere. If she get caught by the jailers, she will die.
