Chu Yunge quickly reached out to grab the thing in his hand, and she moved as fast as lightning. She was afraid that if she moved too slowly, Feng Yi would take the thing back.
”Xiao Ge, then your husband will leave?” Seeing the joy in Chu Yunge's eyes, the look in Feng Yi's eyes became gentler as she asked her in a low voice.
”En, let's go. We have to be careful when we do things. Don't let anyone find any flaws in us.” After taking her treasure, Chu Yunge was extremely happy. She turned her head and forgot about the awkward moment of calling Feng Yi a husband, she happily waved her hands at Feng Yi, ”Take care, I won't send you off.”
”Be careful, I'm leaving.”
Seeing the smile on Chu Yunge's face, Feng Yi felt even more refreshed, the curve of his lips became even more graceful, if not for the fact that the human skin mask on her face concealed his originally elegant and refined look, it was possible that this smile on his face would enchant countless of girls.
Watching Feng Yi's back as she left, Chu Yunge also retreated back to her cell and sat on her table. She spread out her hands and carefully observed the palm-sized crossbow in her palms.
With this, she would be able to protect herself even better.
The silver needles in the crossbow were all needles that she had personally made. Each silver needle was thicker and harder than the usual acupuncture needles. The silver needles were hollow and filled with anesthetic powder.
As long as the needle hit, it would cause a person to be anesthetized locally for around two hours.
Since the silver needle was hollow, there were many ingredients that could be placed in the needle. Only then would it be able to display its effects in the shortest amount of time.
Now that he had the ticklish powder and silver needles, Chu Yunge's confidence was boosted greatly. Feng Yi was indeed a meticulous person, he knew what she needed the most right now. Not only did he know to bring these items over, he even made detailed modifications to the usage of the silver needles.
Thinking to this point, the corner of Chu Yunge's mouth couldn't help but curl up at a angle that even she herself could not detect.
After looking too much at the crossbows in her hands, Chu Yunge was unavoidably discovered by the guards. They didn't dare to put him on the bed or the dressing table, but rather placed him on top of them.
Putting her things away, she walked to the door of the cell and peered through the iron bars at the cell diagonally opposite, where two mad women were resting on broken mattresses.
She had seen her conversation with Feng Yi in the corridor earlier.
However, they seemed to be extremely afraid of Feng Yi who was dressed in a black robe. When they saw Feng Yi coming in, they immediately hid their heads in the blanket and didn't dare to move an inch.
Furthermore, Feng Yi's conversation with his was very soft, they were hiding in the innermost corner of the prison, so they probably did not hear clearly what she had said to Feng Yi.
So what if they heard it?
Chu Yunge leaned against the iron fence pitifully, and looked at the two mad women who were having a nap, and sighed in her heart. The two of them had been tortured for so many years and were locked up since long ago, so even if they heard her conversation with Feng Yi and told the prison guards what she said, they would only think that the two of them were crazy again.
This was the sorrow of a madman. Because the words of a madman, no one would ever believe them.
Time passed silently in the quiet prison.
After Feng Yi left, Chu Yunge went to rest on the bed in her cell.
The ancients calculated whether there were any clocks or not, usually by ringing the bell to remind everyone what time it was.
The people who tapped the sundial and moon-dial would determine the time of day, and if there was no sundial as a reference, the time would also be calculated using a water droplet.
In the streets and in the palaces, there were people fighting for more money.
However, once they reached the State Supervisor Temple, there were no longer any people ringing the bell.
The person who struck the bell didn't ring the bell every two hours.
On the high platform beside the main hall of the State Supervisor Temple, there was a bell. It meant the beginning of a new day.
As for the rest of the time, there wouldn't be anyone who would ring the bell.
Thus, no one in the Sherita prison would know how long he had been locked up for.
Because there was almost no concept of time.
Chu Yunge also didn't know when it would actually be midnight. In the past, she had relied on Feng Yi to know what time it was, but now that Feng Yi wasn't by her side, she didn't know how to count the time.
Looking at the moonlight shining in through the window, Chu Yunge lifted up the chair and stood on it. Looking out from the window, he could only see that the direction of the moon seemed to be in the west, which meant it was close to the center of the night sky.
