A day's life in the palace is quite boring. The cooks like them cannot leave this small courtyard at all. After cooking, someone will come to deliver the dishes. When they rest, they can only stay in the house next to this small courtyard.
This made Zhang Cheng a little depressed. He didn't come here to cook. He was thinking about how to leave and continue to look for opportunities to investigate.
But the next day, when Zhang Cheng didn¡¯t know what to do, the fat chef found him and asked him to deliver food to people.
It¡¯s not that Zhang Cheng got this job because of his outstanding performance, but because his performance was too poor, so the job fell on Zhang Cheng¡¯s head impartially.
However, this suited Zhang Cheng¡¯s wishes and he agreed immediately.
He took the food box from the steward's hand and followed the two guards with knives toward the outside.
This food box is very big, it can hold meals for at least ten people, and it is also very heavy, so it obviously contains a lot of food.
Zhang Cheng didn¡¯t pay much attention to it before. He just heard that the steward asked him to deliver food to people, but now that he thought about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong.
Although he didn¡¯t stay here for long, he still understood some things about the palace. Basically, everyone in the palace had a fixed place to eat, and there was a dedicated person to pass the dishes.
But at this moment, he was asked to deliver food to others, which made him a little curious as to who this person was.
He asked subconsciously: "Brother, guard, where are we going?"
"If you don't want to die, just shut your mouth." The guard did not answer, but said such words with murderous intent.
Although Zhang Cheng was not told where they were going, it was certain that the person he delivered the meal to was a secret in the entire palace, otherwise it would not have been so strict.
"Forget it, just leave him alone. We'll all know when we get there." Zhang Cheng thought to himself, and then continued to follow the two of them forward.
Gradually, they came to a study room. Two guards opened the mechanism, and then a bookshelf was divided into two and moved to both sides. A door appeared where the original bookshelf blocked it. It was obviously a secret room.
"What's going on?" Zhang Cheng was a little confused as to why there was a secret room hidden in the palace. You must know that this place is the emperor's territory. Who dares to be so presumptuous.
"Could it be that it was a secret room built under the emperor's order?" The more Zhang Cheng thought about it, the more likely it seemed, because except for him, no one would dare to do this on his own territory.
However, this made him even more curious about the people he delivered meals to, who could make the emperor take such pains to imprison them here.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Let them live in such a dark underground with no freedom?
At the same time, he also realized that this might not be a secret room, but might be a dungeon, a dungeon that could be set up in the palace. What does this mean?
Zhang Cheng could not think of anything else, but what he could think of was that the people imprisoned here must be of extremely important value to the emperor. Otherwise, it would be impossible to put them under his eyes.
¡°Why are you so stunned, get down quickly!¡± The guard pushed Zhang Cheng and scolded.
"Yes!" After saying that, Zhang Cheng walked in, but after a few steps he found that the two guards did not follow him. He was a little surprised and asked: "Brother guards, aren't you coming in?"
"There are so many questions. Come out immediately after feeding the people inside. Don't wait too long. Okay, let's go in." A guard said this impatiently.
"Okay." Zhang Cheng didn't ask why they didn't come in. Instead, he walked in alone. The further he walked in, the more excited he became. After all, there was no one who was extremely important to this cruel emperor. Common.
This dungeon is not very deep. After going down dozens of stairs, a small but spacious basement appeared in front of him.
There were only nine people in the entire basement. Each of them was nailed to a cross, with scars and bloodstains everywhere on their bodies. It was obvious that they had suffered great humiliation and torture before.
Zhang Cheng didn¡¯t know what these nine people had done to allow the emperor to treat them like this.
At the same time, he also sympathized with them a little. In this world, it is not good for you to mess with anyone. If you mess with that pervert, aren't you looking for trouble yourself?
But sympathy is sympathy, his current situation is not that good, and it is impossible to save the nine of them, so he doesn't care about other things and focuses on what he should do first.Okay, let¡¯s look at it later.
Thinking of this, he put down the food box. After opening it, a tangy fragrance came to his face, and then, a series of delicacies with full color, fragrance and taste appeared in front of his eyes.
"Who are these nine people and why do they receive two different treatments?" Zhang Cheng couldn't figure it out. After all, they were prisoners when they stayed here. It was easy to imagine what kind of food prisoners should eat.
"However, the food here is better than what he, a cook, usually eats. The conditions of prisoners and the treatment of emperors are completely inconsistent with normal people's thinking.
This made Zhang Cheng even more curious about the identities of these nine people.
Originally, he wanted to ask these nine people, but each of these nine people were like dead people, lifeless. If they were not still breathing, Zhang Cheng really thought they were nine dead people.
"Forget it, this has nothing to do with what I came here for, so don't waste your time." Zhang Cheng shook his head. Although he really sympathized with the experiences of the nine of them, it was completely incomparable with what he wanted to do.
So, he stopped thinking about that and took out the food one by one.
However, he soon realized a real problem. They were tied to the cross one by one. How were they going to eat? You won't really allow yourself to feed them.
Suddenly, Zhang Cheng remembered what the guard said before, "Come out immediately after feeding the people inside!".
"That's all, these nine people are quite pitiful, just feed them." Zhang Cheng sighed, feeling full of kindness in his heart, and then walked towards them with the food in hand.
But he didn¡¯t feel anything when he got close to them, but the moment he touched them, Zhang Chengcheng felt that there was an amazing power in this person¡¯s body, and this power actually resonated with the power in his own body.
"This" Zhang Cheng was shocked. He was sure that the nine people in front of him were from their world, but when he thought about it, there seemed to be very few people at the supreme level who had entered here.
??Suddenly, he thought that there were nine people in total here, and there were exactly nine saints above the Supreme. Could it be^-^^-^
