Bab 445: Chapter 455: Death Is Too Easy

"Sure, sure, certainly," the County Magistrate wiped the sweat from his brow.

He personally led the way to the prison cell, taking Gu Youyou and Jin Zijin inside. Gu Youyou had previously thought about having Gu Wu beheaded, but upon seeing the terrifying depths of the dungeon, she suddenly changed her mind.

Executing him with a single stroke would be too kind; better to let him stay here.

Gu Youyou pinched her nose and took quite a while to get used to the stench of the cell.

Having been locked in a dark room for so many years, Gu Youyou felt certain this place was undeniably more terrifying than the dark room—it would be too lenient not to confine him here.

"Madam, we've arrived," the County Magistrate obsequiously said to Gu Youyou.

Gu Youyou looked at the person shackled in chains inside the cell, who, dressed in rags, was curled up sleeping on some rotten straw, looking no different from the prisoners depicted in historical drama series.
