Chapter 902: Dungeon
Translator: Lonelytree
There were actually stairs at the end of the corridor. Driven by my strong curiosity, I continued to walk down.
The cell on this floor was dead silent. I carefully listened for a while and only walked forward after making sure that there wasn’t any sound.
Suddenly, there was the sound of metal shackles colliding, followed by a violent cough.
“Mom, Mom, are you alright?” A voice asked nervously.
The coughing continued for a long time before it stopped. The heavy breathing could be felt.
“I, I’m fine. Help me sit up a little,” a low and weak voice replied.
After a rustling sound, it calmed down.
I was about to walk over quietly.
Suddenly, I heard a low sigh. “I wonder how your sister is doing. Is she still alive?”
“Mom, don’t worry. Although my sister doesn’t know how to speak, she’s smart and well-behaved. She’ll definitely survive.”
My heart skipped a beat. She doesn’t know how to speak, but she’s smart and well-behaved. Could they be talking about the mute girl?
“Sigh, I’m just worried that young master will use us to threaten her into doing bad things.”
That son fell silent.
“Fortunately, she’s mute and doesn’t know anything. However, I’m afraid that she’ll only think about us. She’ll do whatever others tell her to do and be used by others.”
“Mom, we were born with this kind of fate. If we can be used it, we have the value of living. If we can no longer be used, then naturally…” the son’s voice was very low.
“It’s all our fault. We made you brothers and sisters suffer with us. If there is really the next life, I hope that you can all be ordinary people. Whether you are poor or disabled, at least you are free. We have sinned against you. We have let you down.” The old woman’s voice was very sad.
“Mom, this is all fate. Look at other people’s families. Big Brother and I have talked about it before. Although our lives are bad, we were born in our family. Our parents and siblings love each other and have a home and warmth. This is the most worthwhile thing in our lives. I’m not worried about my sister now. She’s smart and will definitely survive. I’m only worried about Dad and big brother. I’m afraid that they are too stubborn. I’m afraid…”
“Sigh.” The old woman interrupted her son’s words and sighed heavily.
“Second brother, I feel that they’re no longer here. They’ve been freed. I actually hope that they’ve already been freed and won’t suffer anymore.” The Old woman’s voice choked with sobs.
Both mother and son fell silent.
I was completely confused when I heard this. What exactly did this family do to be imprisoned in this hell on Earth?
“Second brother, if… If you manage to get out of here alive, remember to look for a family surnamed Tong…” the old woman suddenly said.
I was shocked.
That son seemed to be shocked as well.
“Mom…”
“Let me say it. I don’t know if I’ll be able to wake up again after I fall asleep,” the old woman said softly. There was no sadness in her voice. It was calm.
Her son smiled bitterly. “Mom, do you think I still have a chance to go out? If It’s a secret, then I’ll bring it to my grave.”
Her son was very negative.
The old woman said, “No, we should be born equal, but we’re not. I’m unwilling to accept it. If I die with a secret, then my whole life will have been for nothing. In my next life, I don’t want to be a person anymore. I can be a tree or a flower. I don’t want to be a person anymore. So, I have to say everything that’s in my heart.”
The son was silent.
I felt that the old woman must have sensed that her life was slipping away.
