Although he was arrested, Tianming did not feel despair at this time.
As an orphan, he has been struggling on the line of life and death for as long as he can remember. There are not many opportunities to take a breath in peace. Even when he later met Gai Nie and became an elder, he was still being hunted by the empire. After a few years, he was hunted by the empire.
Tianan’s birthday.
As a young man with a wandering mind, he often experienced occasional decadence and despair, but never had complete resignation and despair.
He's just emo at the moment.
At one moment, he blamed himself for being careless and led everyone into the trap of the Yin and Yang family and the trap. At another moment, he was worried about whether Chen He was safe. At another moment, he was thinking about how to escape. At the next moment, he was worried about what Master Qiban and the others would do to save him.
Overly aggressive risk-taking behavior.
All in all, there are so many threads and no beginning or end.
Then the more I thought about it, the more heartbroken I became.
After emulating for a while, he managed to gather some energy and stood up to study his current situation.
As a prisoner, the Yin and Yang family treated him very well. They did not put him in a cage, but placed him in a fairly spacious room with all kinds of living furniture.
The only part that could tell that this place was used to imprison people was the door - it was a barred door with two separate windows of different sizes above and below the door, which was locked at this time.
Tianming went to the fence door and tested it with Shengxie. Even this famous sword could hardly leave a mark on the door.
It seems that although this door feels like iron, it is actually some kind of alloy and is very strong.
Tian Ming then kicked the door hard several times with all his strength. The door didn't budge, but his legs were numb from the shock.
After confirming that there was nothing he could do with this door, Tianming decisively shifted his attention to the walls on both sides.
Just because the door can't be broken through, doesn't mean the wall can't be broken through either.
Most of the structures on the mirage are made of wood, especially the various rooms, which are basically made of wood.
The walls of this house also look like they are made of wood.
Just do it when you think of it. Tianming raises his leg and kicks it against the wall.
Click!
"hiss!"
First there was a slight cracking sound, the wooden wall cracked, and then Tianming felt a huge shock force on his legs and a heartbreaking pain.
Tianming squatted down, holding his legs and grinning, and waited for a while before recovering.
"This... there is also a stone wall outside!"
Tianming came close to the wooden wall that he had kicked into pieces, and after pulling twice to clean up the debris, he saw clearly what was behind the wall - there was still a stone wall behind the wooden wall.
Moreover, the structure of this stone wall itself is probably also special.
With Tianming's current strength, even an ordinary stone brick wall would be kicked out by him. Even if he kicked it, he would make a dent. It would be impossible for him to escape unscathed, but his legs would almost be shattered.
Tianming wielded Shengxie and struck the wall with his sword several times, leaving several inches-deep marks.
After confirming that he could cause damage, Tianming slashed several times in succession. The sword marks deepened a lot, and the deepest one was almost as thick as a brick.
Tianming put Sheng Xie away and kicked him again at the area with the deepest sword mark, but it still didn't move at all.
He rolled his eyes, put away Shengxie, and lay back down.
Even though there were scratches, it still couldn't be kicked at all, which shows that the thickness of this stone wall is much higher than that of normal walls.
If he persisted in scraping with Shengxie, he might be able to forcefully dig out a small gap-like hole, but such a small hole would be useless.
If you want to dig out a hole that he can pass through, it won't be done in a day or two.
He doesn't have any posters of sexy girls, so he will definitely be discovered by the Yin Yang family before he digs out the hole. It's all a waste of time.
It's better to take a break and look for any other flaws later.
Tianming had just laid down and was thinking about what to do next, when his thoughts suddenly fell into a familiar trance.
When I came back to my senses, it was a familiar place and familiar people again.
Although he was in jail, Tianming was still very happy to see Qiantaki. He smiled and said hello, "We meet again, Qiantaki."
When Qiantaki saw Tianming, she just forced a smile, and then said with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry Tianming, it was all me who caused you harm."
"Ah?" Tianming was stunned when he heard this, "How...why did you hurt me?"
"If it weren't for the information I gave you, you wouldn't have made a misjudgment and been ambushed by the Yin Yang family." Chitaki explained the origin of her apology.
Tianming heard this but smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "The information you gave me is not wrong, it's just that I misjudged it and was negligent."
"This is all because I took the initiative and was obsessed with revenge, so I harmed others and myself."
Today's Yin Yang family is actually no longer suitable to be the target of the anti-Qin forces - they will soon sail out to sea, and whether they live or die will not have any impact on the people on the shore in a short period of time.
Killing a Tianzi killer will actually weaken the empire's strength, but killing a Yin-Yang elder will only theoretically weaken it and have no real impact.
It's just that Tian Ming is eager for revenge, and the Mo family and the Yin Yang family have also had a blood feud for generations, so Master Ban doesn't object.
Tianming saw that Qianlong was still in a very low mood, so he quickly changed the subject and asked, "Qianlong, a golden light dragon suddenly appeared to help me earlier, was it you who released it?"
Qiantaki nodded, "It's me...I wanted to save you after I found out you were in crisis, but unfortunately I couldn't help you."
"Hehe." Tianming scratched his head and replied with a smile, "Thank you very much. As for the result...no one can do anything about it. It's all because the Yin Yang family is too insidious and shameless!"
"I'm afraid they are two hundred years old together. There is no one who can join forces to target me, a teenager."
"I don't know what they are trying to do with me... That old bastard Yun Zhongjun won't test the medicine on me, right?" Tianming guessed worriedly.
Chitaki covered her mouth and chuckled, shook her head and said, "No, they will definitely not hurt you in a short time... But I don't know what will happen after the mirage sets sail again."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "That's good..." Tianming was very optimistic and said with a grin, "At least I won't have to worry about my life for a while."
"By the way, Qianlong, I need your help with something." Tianming changed the topic and asked Qianlong, "Shaoyu will probably get on the ship to save me. You can find a way to contact him and tell him my location."
Qiantaki smiled bitterly when he heard this, and actually shook his head, "I can't help you with this Tianming."
"I don't know your location either, so I can't tell him."
"Ah!?" Tianming looked confused, "I don't know? How could I not know?"
"Didn't you find me already?"
Chitaki shook his head again, "I contacted you, but I didn't find you."
"I have been looking for your location since you were imprisoned by the Yin and Yang family, but I searched all the areas I could inspect and couldn't find you. I can only see you now because I relied on the Phantom Sound Box to forcibly resonate with you.
Arrived."
"Uh..." Tianming was dumbfounded and asked after being stunned for a while, "Can't I rely on this resonance to confirm my location?"
Chitaki looked at Tianming apologetically and replied, "Sorry, there's really nothing I can do... I will try my best in the future, but I'm afraid there's not much hope."
"Tsk..." Tianming smacked his lips and had nothing to do about it, "It seems that no one else can help me with my escape... Then please tell Shao Yu my situation to him after you find him on board, so that he won't
I don’t know anything, so I act recklessly in a hurry.”
"These people from the Yin Yang family have really arranged everything for me... By the way, do they know about your existence? Otherwise, how could they have imprisoned me in a place where you can't detect me by such a coincidence?"
"Probably not." Chitaki pondered for a moment before replying, "It's probably just a coincidence."
"You are now the tycoon of the Mo family. If you are caught, the entire Mo family will mobilize to find a way to save you. The Yin and Yang family should hide you deeper to guard against them."
"Any place on the mirage that is well defended and difficult to find is basically forbidden for me to set foot in. The chance of running into it by chance is very high."
"Well... it's good that you weren't exposed." Tianming didn't care much about this. He scratched his head and replied with a smile, "I don't want to be caught, and you will also be exposed."
"You, you should think more about yourself now." Chitaki gave him a helpless look.
It doesn't matter if she is exposed, she will be fine anyway, Tian Ming is dying now.
Tianming smiled nonchalantly and started chatting with Chitaki.
He is in jail now and is in a daze when he goes out, so he might as well stay with Chitaki for a while.
………………
At noon the next day, the Mohist stronghold.
As soon as Shaoyu woke up, he ran to Master Ban and told him about Qiantaki alone.
"So Gu Xun's daughter is always in the mirage!?"
Master Ben was shocked by the news and couldn't wait to ask, "Why is she staying in the mirage? Is there anyone else with her besides her?"
"This... I'm afraid you have to wait until Tianming comes back to ask him in person." Shao Yu spread his hands, expressing that he was helpless.
It wasn't that he couldn't answer Master Ben's question, but when it came to Qiantaki's privacy, it was better to let Tianming make the decision.
Anyway, all he needs is to use Chitaki to convince Master Ben to allow him to go to the mirage. Whether or not he tells Master Ben will have no effect.
Master Ban glanced at him and didn't care whether he really didn't know or pretended not to know. He said in a deep voice, "In this case, you really need to go to the mirage in person, but you can't be anxious. The precautions on the ship are probably the most important these two days."
Strict."
"It's better to wait for now, wait for Robber Zhi to come back and help you walk the road first."
"I asked about the mirage. It is said that it is a big job and it will take at least a month to complete. There is no need to rush."
"……All right."
When Master Ban mentioned this, Shao Yu couldn't help but recognize the situation. He nodded and accepted his arrangement, turned around and left.
As soon as he left Master Ban, Shao Yu bumped into Shi Lan who came to see him.
"Shaoyu, I plan to go to the city to get some information."
"Okay, I'll go with you." Shao Yu raised his legs to go with Shi Lan.
Shi Lan did not move, but asked first, "Do you want to go to the mirage today?"
Shao Yu shook his head, "I won't go for the time being. Master Ban told me to stay out of the limelight and wait two days before going."
"Hmm... that's fine, then I can just go to the city by myself." Hearing this, Shi Lan rejected Shao Yu's companions.
Shaoyu asked in confusion, "Why? It's safer for two people to be together!"
Shi Lan explained, "I went to the city to try to gather information through some previously opened channels. I won't do anything dangerous, and there's no point in following you."
"Then... I'll keep an eye on the port, and you can just do your thing." Shao Yu did not delve into Shi Lan's intelligence channels, and flexibly changed his target.
Shi Lan shook his head and objected, "The probability that the Yin Yang family will disembark Tian Ming from the ship and hide it is almost zero. There is a high probability that they will not disembark. There is no point in watching the port. Why don't you stay."
"Don't you still need to deal with your family's affairs?"
"Uncle Liang and Master Fan are keeping an eye on the family affairs. It's not like I can't do it without me." Shao Yu shrugged and replied, "Now that something has happened in Tianming, I must keep an eye on him first."
"So I'd better go with you and see if we can get some valuable information through the channels of our Xiang clan."
In terms of intelligence channels, the Xiang family definitely has much more information than Shi Lan, and they have interests in dealings with many local officials.
Local forces - including civil society and government forces, colluding with rebels are basically the norm in areas outside Guanzhong - far away from the central court, the effectiveness of imperial laws will inevitably weaken, and it is normal for them to break the law and break the law.
Or it was to gain more profits, or they had no choice but to survive, or some other reason... In short, there were thousands of reasons, but there were not many reasons for them to swear allegiance to the emperor.
Songhai's officials actually changed more than once due to events such as the assassination of Ying Zheng. However, among the newly appointed officials, most of them were born locally and had long been connected with the anti-Qin forces, and those transferred from other places quickly joined in. They were previously
That's what it does.
The world is so big, it is impossible for Yingzheng to send all the reliable officials of the central court to local places. If there are not enough, it is meaningless.
Therefore, the Xiang family always has enough insiders in the city. It is unrealistic to expect them to do anything practical, but there is still hope for collecting information.
"That's okay." Shi Lan no longer refused after hearing this, and nodded in agreement.
………………
After Shao Yu and Shi Lan sneaked into the city with ease, they temporarily parted ways and went their separate ways.
Shi Lan walked around the city several times, and after confirming that no one was following her, she quietly walked toward the general's mansion.
Currently, there is only one important person in the General's Mansion, Gu Xun, and there is almost no defense. With Gu Xun's status, the defense should be strengthened, but he happens to be a type of person who is not needed.
Shi Lan easily got into the empty-defense general's mansion, but she didn't know her target, which was the exact location of Gu Xun, so she could only find it bit by bit.
After walking around for a long time, I still couldn't find anyone, but a voice suddenly rang in my ears.
"Two hundred steps forward, turn left and there is the third door on the right."
The sudden voice made Shi Lan's heart beat faster for a moment, but after realizing who the voice was, she calmed down in an instant.
She obediently walked over as the voice told her and found the independent courtyard where Gu Xun lived.
After thinking for a moment, she didn't go through the main entrance and jumped over the wall with a neat somersault.
In the courtyard, Gu Xun was making tea in front of a tray of tea sets.
