Chapter 1 Cell
This is a prison cell, where three people are imprisoned.

A ray of light came in through the small transom on the high wall, and in the dimness, one could see a severed finger on the dirty thatch.

The young man named "Li Xia" in his past and present lives asked his inmates, "You mean, I bit off his finger?"

"Yes, you are ruthless."

The one who answered was a thin and short young man with a mischievous look, so small that he seemed to be able to pass through the railing, but unfortunately he couldn't really pass through.

The young man's name was Bai Mao, and he claimed to be a very powerful thief. He had a nickname of "White Rat".

Li Xia doesn't know how powerful Bai Mao's so-called "very powerful" is. I remember watching "Journey to the West" when I was a child.

It is worth mentioning that Bai Mao, the "white-haired mouse", must have never heard of "Journey to the West", because he said that it is "the fourth year of Xingchang in the Great Song Dynasty".

Li Xia thought about it for a while. In his previous life, he had never heard of any Xingchang reign title in the Song Dynasty, and he was quite puzzled about it.

But Bai Mao couldn't tell more about the situation. This powerful thief seemed to have limited knowledge of the outside world.

The truncated finger they were discussing belonged to the third person in the cell. He was a very vicious-looking man named Lu Bingxiong.

This Lu Bingxiong has a huge skeleton, he may have been a burly man outside, but now he is so hungry in the cell that only his skeleton remains.

Because the index finger of Lu Bingxiong's right hand was bitten off, he was taken out to bandage it, and he just came back, and he was sitting there pretending to sleep, silently.

Li Xia sized Lu Bingxiong up, judging from his physical appearance, he had been in prison for at least half a year.

As for why I bit off other people's fingers?

Before Li Xia could figure it out, Bai Mao had already spoken vividly.

"Brother Lu just wants to have fun with you. If you want me to say, it doesn't matter if you let him do it. If he wants to do it with me, I will definitely agree! Staying in this prison is boring. Come on bird. By the way, you are really ruthless, biting his finger to death, and you won’t let go after being beaten like that. I’ve been in the rivers and lakes for so long, and it’s rare to see a petty official like you.”

When Bai Mao said this, Li Xia probably understood what happened.

The reason why I bit off Lu Bingxiong's finger was probably because of the word "innocence".

But Bai Mao was still chattering.

"The most amazing thing is that you have been beaten to death by brother Lu, you are already out of breath, and you are so dead, you can still come back to life. What a goddamn god."

When he slapped his thigh, he didn't know how to express his excitement, so he rubbed his stinky feet vigorously, and kept grinning.

Li Xia rubbed her forehead, and felt that this matter was indeed a bit magical.

He was originally a modern man who died accidentally in a plane crash. He somehow crossed over, and when he opened his eyes, he was in this stinky prison cell.

In addition, the plane that crashed was his private plane, which shows that he regrets this matter very much.

At the beginning, he still had a certain expectation in his heart, hoping that the whole thing might be a prank on a variety show, and finally the prison door opened, and there was a shooting studio outside.

But his rationality told him that this kind of expectation was obviously impossible, his body was not the same as before, and he must have traveled through time.

It took me a long time to find out that the original owner of this body was imprisoned yesterday. Last night, for some reason, he had a fight with his inmates and was beaten to death.

Up to now, he hasn't had a chance to see what he looks like, and it's worthy of Lu Bingxiong's desire to do... that beastly thing.

After all, there are no mirrors in this prison.Even if you urinate, you probably won't be able to see it.

However, it can be seen that this is a young, slender body with good nutrition and well-proportioned muscles. The original owner's family background and education should not be bad, but I don't know why he ended up in prison.

Li Xia also asked Bai Mao about the reason for his imprisonment. The other party just rolled his eyes to express his ignorance, then smiled meaningfully, and said with a smile: "How do I know? Seeing you like this, maybe you hooked up Which little lady should elope."

The answer was clearly off the mark.

This matter can only be inquired slowly from the jailer. Li Xia is calm on the surface, but he is very uncomfortable in his heart.

The cell has no sunlight and no ventilation. The air is stuffy with the stench of foot odor mixed with excrement and urine. The environment is dirty and the wailing of patients can be heard from several surrounding cells. The feeling of a rotting corpse.

What's more dangerous is that the inmate in the same cell had a finger bitten off, can he still get better?
Although Lu Bingxiong kept his eyes closed and dozed off, Li Xia was secretly vigilant. After thinking about it for a while, he was about to say something to Lu Bingxiong...

Suddenly, there was movement outside.

There was a sound of "jingling, clanging" keys, and several jailers held up torches, leading an official to walk in.

Li Xia turned his head to look, and saw the situation of several other cells by the light of the torch.

The cell he was in was on the west side of the corridor and back, and most of the cells on the east side in front contained more than a dozen people, and there were fewer and fewer people as they went to the back.

It shows that his cell with only three people is considered to be treated better.

However, maybe the better the treatment, the heavier the punishment?

Seeing the jailers leading the officers in, all the prisoners were still lying on their stomachs weakly, and no one got up and yelled for injustice, which seemed to be quite quality.

The officer stepped on his soap boots and walked unhurriedly through the long corridor, and only then began to glance around the cells on the left and right when he was inside.

"My boss, this is the cell where the death row is held."

"I'm not a death row prisoner." Bai Mao interrupted suddenly, leaned down on the railing, and smiled apologetically, "Boss Liu, when will I..."

"Shut up." The jailer Liu quickly cut off his words, and said flatteringly to the officer: "Sergeant, this man is a thief with good hands and feet."

When Li Xia heard that he was on death row, he paid attention, and then looked at the official's appearance.

I saw that he was about 30 years old, with a stern expression, sharp eyes, and looked quite capable.His whole body was imposing, as if he was a high-ranking official, but judging by his attire, he was only slightly better than a jailer.

Prisoner Liu, who was leading the way, held a torch to shine on Li Xia's cell, but not to look at Li Xia, but at Lu Bingxiong, who had been sitting cross-legged and feigning sleep.

"Look at the job, that guy is Lu Bingxiong." Liu Baotou said, "Last May, he had an affair with a woman, was caught by her husband, and killed her husband, and his father and brother. He was empty-handed, so The three of them were holding kitchen knives and hatchets."

Hearing this, Lu Bingxiong opened his eyes and glanced at them, but did not speak.It looks arrogant, but actually shrinks its neck.

The officer glanced at him and said lightly, "Slim."

After only saying this word, he seemed to have lost interest in Lu Bingxiong. He was about to turn his head, but suddenly his eyes fixed again, and he asked, "What's the matter with the severed finger?"

Liu Baotou pointed to Li Xia, and said: "This kid was just sent in yesterday, and there was a fight at night, and he bit off his finger."

"Why not give them another cell?"

Liu Lao bowed his head, rolled his eyes from side to side, and whispered a few words to the official in a very soft voice.

Li Xia had already concentrated her mind, staring at his mouth, listening to the little voice, vaguely felt that the last few words seemed to be "I can't live for two days".

The officer seemed to have sneered for a moment, stopped looking at this side, turned and walked to the next cell.

The next cell was on the west side of Li Xia's. Originally, he couldn't see clearly in the dark. Li Xia always thought that there was no one there. At this time, the jailer put a torch in, and he saw that there was a person locked up next door.

"Hey, Pang Tian, ​​get up!"

But hearing the sound of "jingling, ding, ding, ding", a big man turned over and sat up, as if he was very impatient because his sleep was disturbed, and there was a "ho ho" sound in his throat, which was a bit scary.

Under the firelight, the man's chest was open, revealing thick black hair, his body was like a bear, and his face was covered with scars.

"Look, this is Pang Tian. He likes to cook human flesh. He cooked 11 people from Lin'an Mansion. He was arrested two months ago and killed four officials..."

This Pang Tian seemed a little bit late, staring at the torch for a while, then turned his head to look at the jailers with a fierce look in his eyes.

Li Xia looked at it for a while, then turned to glance at Lu Bingxiong.

Originally, he thought that Lu Bingxiong was a vicious man, but compared with Pang Tian next door, Lu Bingxiong seemed very weak.

As for Bai Mao, he has squatted to the other side of the cell, far away from his neighbors to the west.

Over there, the officer came to Pang Tian's cell and said, "My name is Nie Zhongyou. I was the one who assisted the Qiantang County Government to arrest you two months ago."

Pang Tian said hoarsely, "Come here, I will kill you."

He doesn't speak Chinese fluently.

Nie Zhongyou said: "Do you want to live? Do something for me."

Li Xia had quietly walked to the corner closest to them, still silently observing Nie Zhongyou's expression.

I saw that Nie Zhongyou still had a stern look on his face, and it seemed to him that such illegal and disciplined things as letting the death row prisoner do things and letting the death row prisoner live seemed commonplace in his eyes.

Pang Tiandao: "Why does I want to do things for you, a dog from Song Dynasty?"

Nie Zhongyou said: "Your brother is in my hands..."

When Li Xia heard this, the head of prison Liu had already walked towards his cell, pointed at him and said, "You son, go over there! You're on business to handle a case, what are you doing here for the fun? You're dead."

Li Xia then got up, walked to the other side of the cell, and sat down next to Bai Mao.

With a distance of more than ten steps, many specific contents can no longer be heard clearly.

In the end, I only vaguely heard Pang Tian say: "I think about it."

~~
After this little episode, Nie Zhongyou and the guards left, and the cell became quiet again...

Li Xia sorted out the messy thoughts in his head, and felt that something was wrong.

He murmured, and asked softly to Bai Mao: "Usually, if someone is sick in this prison, do you always take them out to see a doctor?"

"Of course not." Bai Mao said, "Who are we? How can we have such a good life?"

"Then him?"

"Brother Lu is different, maybe there are still good friends out there for money?"

Bai Mao said, and apologized to Lu Bingxiong with a smile: "Is it? Brother Lu, if you want me to tell you, the story between you and Brother Li is over?"

Only then did Lu Bingxiong open his eyes, looked at Li Xia, and said, "Boy, I obviously beat you to death once, but you lived again. Beheaded. In this way, I don't want to find you to have fun, so I can sleep peacefully for the rest of the day, and forget about any grudges, how about it?"

Li Xia narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a while, and said, "Okay."

"Okay, you are ruthless and lucky, I am convinced." Lu Bingxiong said with emotion: "From now on, everyone will be brothers in the same prison."

"it is good."

"Refreshing." Lu Bingxiong grinned, as if he had settled his mind.

Bai Mao smiled again, clapped his hands and said, "That's good. From now on, the three of us will be in the same prison, so we should get along well. Brother Lu, if you want to be happy, you can find me."

"Go away..."

The atmosphere seemed to be harmonious.

That evening, there was nothing to eat in the prison. It is said that food is only put here once a day.

Li Xia had hoped that someone might come to visit the prison, but there was none.

The light in the transom grew weaker and weaker, and finally fell into darkness.

At night, there are no candles in the prison, only a little moonlight, and the silhouette of a person can barely be seen.

Lu Bingxiong had fallen asleep on the thatch, and after a while, there was a slight snoring sound.

Li Xia also lay down on the thatch, feeling the hunger and this new world, thinking about how to get out of a death row prisoner.

……

late at night.

Lu Bingxiong's slight snoring gradually subsided.

He turned over quietly, took out a dagger-like bone fragment from under his body, and stabbed hard at the place where Li Xia was hiding!
