Ask Sword

In the cold and dark dungeon of Xingzhou City, Xing Pengyue was leading Jianquan monk through the aisle, introducing the severe prisoners held in the cells on both sides.

Wei Liangcai, a Confucian student in Xingzhou, lived in the home of his brother-in-law and his sister-in-law. He was nearly forty years old and failed in the test for a long time. When he heard his sister-in-law chatting with the neighbors about him, he became furious and poisoned his brother-in-law, nephew and niece and his family. set fire to his mouth.

When the yamen servant caught him, he was about to attack the state school with a kindling object.

Xing Pengyue pointed to a middle-aged Confucian scholar who was stroking his beard and reading a book in the corner of the cell, and said softly, Can I enter hell?

Monk Jianquan glanced at the Confucian scholar, shook his head and said, Not enough.

What about this one?

Xing Pengyue turned to the cell on the other side: Feng Tunan, a water bandit on the river, disguised himself as a boatman to carry passengers at the ferry all the year round. When the boat was halfway through, it stopped in the middle of the river and asked the passengers if they wanted Bandao noodles or wonton noodles.

The former is one knife, chopping people into the water,

The latter took off his clothes and jumped into the river to commit suicide.

He made tens of thousands of fortunes by intimidation and extortion, and at least killed dozens of people.

Jianquan Monk glanced at the sluggish prisoner who was huddled in the corner of the cell, with one leg crippled and smelly all over his body, and shook his head, Not enough.

What about this one?

Xing Pengyue introduced the prisoners one by one like a few treasures.

A gang leader who opened a gambling shop, borrowed at high prices, and sent thugs to kill people at every turn;

A bawd who forced her into prostitution and liked to abuse her servants;

Going all the way to the deepest part of the prison, Jianquan Seng reluctantly selected a prisoner who was most likely to be a prisoner in hell—a wicked official Ji Ruida who robbed and oppressed the people.

Ask Xing Pengyue to lead people around Ji Ruida's cell and set up traps.

In fact, it was also simple. Everyone changed into prison uniforms, hid in the stinky, filthy and cold prison full of mosquitoes on both sides, and waited quietly for the awakening monk to arrive.

'...I never thought that I would actually go to jail one day. '

Sitting on the thatched bed, Li Ang looked at the dirty prison clothes he was wearing with a strange expression, and with a casual pinch, he strangled a flea that was jumping around between the seams of the clothes.

Snapped.

He Fanshuang, who was sitting opposite him, slapped mosquitoes buzzing in the air.

She also changed into her prison uniform, her hair was disheveled, and she couldn't tell if she was male or female.

Li Ang went to He Fanshuang's house many times, and knew that the girl had a slight obsession with cleanliness, and absolutely didn't like the current environment—the goosebumps on the back of her hands were the best proof.

Ahem, you don't have to stay with me.

Li Ang coughed lightly, and said softly: Shi Xingseng is cultivator Zhuxiao, and the main forces against him are Master Jianquan, Commander Gongsun and Guanzhu Xiong. We just came here to make soy sauce, and we don't need to exert too much force.

Li Ang himself wants to stay and watch the hunting of Shi Xingseng. First, he owns the title of Yu State, and he has a duty to do so.

The second is that when Shi Xingseng got out of trouble, he was also on the scene to witness. Today's situation, it is hard to say that it has nothing to do with him.

Who said I want to accompany you?

Under the messy hair, He Fanshuang's gaze was still cold, First, it is the responsibility of the students of the academy to protect the people of Yu State. Second, watching the monks in the Candle Sky Realm sacrifice their lives will be of great benefit to my promotion to the Cloud Patrol Realm.

After that, she stretched out her hand to slap the mosquito again, and patted again.

Has your myopia increased again?

Li Ang couldn't help complaining: I told you, don't read books when you lie on the bed at night. If this goes on like this, myopia will be hundreds of degrees, and when you take off your glasses on the road, there will be no distinction between men and women within ten meters, and people within twenty meters. Cars don't matter.

Why don't you two talk about love?

Sui Yi, who was in the same cell, scratched his itchy scalp distressedly, brushed off the dust from the prison clothes on his body, and muttered: It's been a long time since I washed these clothes, I'm afraid the Xingzhou Dungeon is abusing prisoners.

Um? etc.

She suddenly paused, took a closer look at the prison uniform on her body, and said thoughtfully: Could this be the legendary pure prison style and prison outfit?

Sister, where did you learn these words?

The corners of Li Ang's eyes twitched, and he deeply felt that if Sui Yi was born in another world, he must be a trendsetter and lover of bad memes in the Internet world.

Suddenly, in the deepest cell, there was a clear sound of beating on the wooden pillar of the cell door.

All the officials of the Zhenfu Division who were disguised as prisoners stopped together. This was a secret signal that everyone had agreed in advance, and it meant that the time for Shi Xingseng's arrival was approaching.

The chatter disappeared in an instant.

Li Ang pretended to lean his head against the wall, narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the entrance of the dungeon,

He Fanshuang silently stretched his hand under the mattress and grabbed the hilt of the sword.

rustle——

Like quicksand slipping down, a cloud of black poured in from under the wooden door at the entrance of the dungeon.

It was insubstantial, like a shadow, gliding up the wall and clinging to the roof above the walkway.

Everyone held their breath subconsciously, and looked at the roof by flickering candlelight on both sides of the aisle.

The shadow meanders and swims all the way to the deepest part of the cell, easily passes through the gap in the cell door, and quietly arrives above Ji Ruida's head.

Ji Ruida had been drugged long ago and was lying on the bed sleeping soundly, ignorant of the outside situation.

clatter——

The shadow fell from the ceiling and landed beside Ji Ruida's bed, re-constructing into a vague human shape.

'Don't do it yet'

Due to the angle, Li Ang couldn't see the specific movements of the shadows.

But he could see Gongsun Changyi, Xiong Tuohai, and Jianquan monk who were separated from Ji Ruida's cell by a wall, sitting on the bed like an old monk in meditation.

The human-shaped shadow pulled Ji Ruida up, and his right hand formed a Nianhua Buddha seal, focusing heavily on Ji Ruida's forehead.

Hum——

Invisible waves are transmitted throughout the dungeon,

Under the floor tiles, inside the walls, and above the ceiling, holy Buddha voices seemed to be heard from all directions.

Ji Ruida opened his eyes suddenly, Jin Gang scriptures appeared on his body surface, opened his mouth and screamed silently. Misty white mist floated out of the mouth, flying into the forehead of the shadow of the human figure, like a bridge.

It's now!

Gongsun Changyi opened his eyes and slapped the wall in front of him with his palm.

The thick walls made of bluestone bricks collapse easily like a sandcastle.

As soon as Xiong Tuohai, the master of Luoyang Haotian Taoist Temple, commanded, the shining thunder spread from the fingertips, along the gap in the wall made by Gongsun Changyi, and blasted towards the shadow of the human figure.

The figure suddenly realized that he was being ambushed, but he still refused to let go of Ji Ruida, who symbolized the realm of hell, and pulled the latter to retreat.

Yet it has just taken a step,

The demon-sealing formation that Zhen Fusi had drawn in advance appeared under his feet, and he fixed it in place.
