He took a breath and said with difficulty, "When we found him, the body was already deformed. There was a hole in his head, he was covered in blood, and his body was hung by iron chains, his arms and legs twisted unnaturally. You could tell he suffered a lot before he died..."

Jian Shichu continued, "After Mother Liang saw Liang Ren's body, she fainted immediately. When she woke up, she went mad. Uncle Liang aged overnight by ten years. He offered most of his property as a bounty for that bodyguard, and finally found him, dismembered him gruesomely. But no matter how tragically that bodyguard died, Liang Ren could never come back..."
Ye Qingci's voice trembled slightly, "Why... why did that bodyguard kidnap Liang Ren? Was Liang Ren not good to him?"
