Chapter 996

~6 min read 1,092 words

In a dark corner, Gao Yao ate the leftovers of others and silently licked the wounds on his body.

He did not know how much longer he could hold on, nor did he know how long such days would continue.

Sometimes, he once wanted to die.

But in order to return, in order to see his sister, he ultimately chose to persist silently.

After another day of exhaustion, his body was weary, but he could not sleep.

Many memories of the past echoed in his mind.

First were those memories of modern society.

Afterwards, there were some memories of this world.

After Lu Su died and her body was taken away by that mysterious person, his good friend Yi Xiaochuan was heartbroken. He once helped Yi Xiaochuan look for that mysterious person, wanting to snatch back Lu Su's body, but that mysterious person had left no trace.

After searching for a long time, they had not found Lu Su.

Finally, because they could not find her, Yi Xiaochuan also gradually gave up.

Afterwards, in order to find a way to return.

The two went to Mount Tangwu together.

As a result, they did not expect that although they found Mount Tangwu, its master was not there, telling them to come back after sixty years.

This sentence made Gao Yao and Yi Xiaochuan extremely miserable.

But since things had come to this, they could only accept reality.

They left Mount Tangwu in low spirits.

Before they could even think about where to go next, they encountered Yi Xiaochuan's sworn brother, Liu Bang. They thought Liu Bang was a good person, but no one expected that Liu Bang would secretly bury them.

When he woke up and found himself in this Official Slave Camp, Gao Yao could not be more desperate.

He had tried to reason with these people, but they would not listen; not only would they not listen, they would beat him and bully him.

He had also tried to resist, but the so-called resistance only resulted in another beating.

Thus, he gradually became numb and gradually yielded to reality.

"I wonder how Xiaochuan is doing!"

Gao Yao could not help but think of his good friend Yi Xiaochuan, who was also his only fellow countryman in this strange world.

He had come to this Official Slave Camp and suffered endless torture; the other party probably was not doing much better.

It is worth mentioning that the one who caused them to end up in such a state was that sworn brother of theirs, Liu Bang.

Does Gao Yao hate Liu Bang?

Of course he hates him.

But even if he hates the other party, there is nothing he can do.

After all, he had already fallen to this point, and right now, he did not even know what kind of torture he would suffer tomorrow.

Gao Yao silently endured the pain in his body while drifting off to sleep in a daze amidst his memories. Between half-asleep and half-awake, a calm voice seemed to ring in his ear.

"Do you want to leave here?"

"I want to, I'm damn dreaming of leaving here!"

Gao Yao blurted out a curse without thinking.

When he opened his eyes slowly the next day, he only felt the sunlight was extremely dazzling.

Afterwards, he was shocked.

Oh no, he had overslept.

In the Official Slave Camp, there was a time limit for sleep every day; there was no such thing as sleeping in. He had once slept in due to exhaustion, and the price was being beaten again when someone found the opportunity.

Since then, basically every morning when the time came, he would open his eyes and then drag his weary body up to work.

He did not expect that he would oversleep again today.

Thinking of the beating he was about to face, Gao Yao subconsciously shivered.

However, the beating he imagined did not come.

Instead, a woman's voice rang in his ear: "Mr. Gao Yao, you're awake?!"

This voice was somewhat familiar, but for a moment, Gao Yao could not remember who it was.

When he turned his head to look at the speaker, he saw an extremely familiar figure.

"Miss Lu Su?!"

After recognizing the other party, Gao Yao's body suddenly shook.

He remembered that Lu Su had clearly died.

Thinking of this, Gao Yao could not help but pull a long face: "Does that mean I'm already dead? Is this hell?"

While saying this with a crying tone, he forced a smile and said to Lu Su in front of him: "Miss Lu Su, it's really great to see you!"

In this era, there was no such concept as hell. Lu Su did not know what hell Gao Yao was talking about, but she understood the meaning of the previous sentence.

Lu Su quickly explained: "Mr. Gao Yao, you, you are not dead!"

"I'm not dead?" Gao Yao was stunned upon hearing this.

Afterwards, he shouted loudly: "Impossible!"

"Although I haven't read many books and don't have much culture, Miss Lu Su, please don't joke with me."

"I saw you die in front of Xiaochuan with my own eyes. You are already dead; if I'm not dead, how could I see you!"

Hearing this name again, Lu Su's expression became somewhat complicated. She really wanted to ask Gao Yao about Xiaochuan's whereabouts, but ultimately, she decided to explain the reason for everything to Mr. Gao Yao first.

"What if I said I didn't die at that time?" As soon as Lu Su spoke, it was a statement that Gao Yao found hard to believe. She then explained to Gao Yao: "When Xiaochuan was infected with the epidemic, when we found Mr. Cui, Mr. Cui actually told me that I had also been infected. But in order to save Xiaochuan, I did not make it public. When the epidemic broke out, even I thought I was going to die."

460 "But I survived!"

Lu Su explained the reason why she survived.

"It was Mr. Su who saved me!"

"Mr. Su?" Gao Yao was confused.

He knew about Mr. Cui; the crazy Cui Wenzi was the one who saved Xiaochuan.

Who was this Mr. Su?

Soon, Gao Yao found out.

"The Mr. Su she refers to is me!"

Su Xuan's voice rang out.

Gao Yao quickly turned his head to look at the other party.

The other party's appearance was plain, but he possessed a unique temperament. After thinking for a while, Gao Yao finally remembered who the other party was.
