The three of them have experienced many absurd things, but the incident of being arrested by the guards and imprisoned as soon as they stepped into the country is the most absurd thing in recent times.
Their weapons and all their luggage were taken away, even Liu Shenghan's pen was not spared. This means that now they have nothing on them, and the enchantment weapons they once captured have also been confiscated. This is a
event.
But why did Xiangji Kingdom treat them like this? This was too sudden.
"This is the king's order." The guards just said.
The three of them were even imprisoned in different cells to prevent them from gathering together to whisper and discuss how to escape. As for more detailed reasons, Liu Shenghan only asked this answer
"You failed to complete the mission of the leader, and also injured the queen of the ally. What crime should you do?"
So Liu Shenghan asked again, what did he say about hurting the queen? The eldest brother kept a straight face and said nothing. I'm afraid Ge Shenguo made some excuse to make them think that the queen was not "dead", but just
"Injured", and the reason for the injury is Bai
It was caused by Ya Ya and the others - even though this was completely unfounded. A messenger must have informed the God of Fragrance Gandharva before they returned to Xiangji Kingdom. Needless to say, it was he who borrowed the help of the king to find reasons to arrest them all.
Get up. Who can do it so quickly?
In fact, even if they escaped, they didn't think about what to say when they saw the God of Fragrance. The mission was indeed not completed, and they all knew it. After all, they didn't bring back the body, and they didn't bring back any relics that could prove it.
The commemorative waistband was also lost. Even if the Gandharva didn't care, the Queen and the Queen Mother didn't care, the Imperial Master would not let them off.
What to do next?
Liu Shenghan fell into thinking. According to Bai Ya and Jun Aoyan's temperament, they could get out even with brute force. But where are they being held? It should be not far from him, but they haven't heard any movement now, which means they haven't taken action yet.
.Yes, there are so many guards here, and they will be suppressed if they make any noise. Bai Ya will not act rashly before making sure that other people are safe.
There's no telling when someone will be sent for interrogation. Are they planning to lock them up until death? When distributing food to the prisoners, the guards deliberately skipped her. It seems that with this attitude, they will be imprisoned in a few days.
She was starved to death. Liu Shenghan was helpless until late at night. At this time, another prisoner next to the prison suddenly talked to her. To be honest, this man was too inconspicuous.
, so much so that the guard who delivered the meal accidentally ignored him, or he suddenly made a big fuss before being given a bowl of gruel. The porridge looked and smelled like swill, and Liu Shenghan always felt that if he drank it, he would
He died faster, so he didn't speak with this inmate. But he really had no sense of existence. When he went to the corner to drink porridge, Liu Shenghan forgot about him in the blink of an eye.
"Why were you locked up?" he asked.
He is Liu Shenghan's only inmate. She seems to be in the far corner of the prison, leaning against the wall on the other side. There was originally a whole earth wall separating them, but due to disrepair, the bricks and
Less than half of the soil fell off. Instead of rebuilding the wall, they erected three iron railings as repairs. The railings were newer than the ones in front and did not have much rust.
The inmate squeezed his body in front of the railing at the base of the wall and asked Liu Shenghan. In the faint moonlight, the man looked like a sloppy and down-and-out man, but in the prison, almost all the prisoners were the same.
It looks like he has shackles on his feet.
There weren't any on his hands, but there were traces of being strangled, which must have been taken off recently. He was wearing a tattered gray prison uniform, with a sallow complexion and thin skin, but his eyes were long and thin. He couldn't be considered to have a "mouse-like eyebrow", but he seemed to have it.
There is a strange aura hidden inside.
"The moment I walked into the city gate, I was arrested." Liu Shenghan said, but he was not honest enough.
"If you just say that, I don't believe it. But you are still wearing your own clothes, white and clean, and you don't look like you have been beaten. When you came in, you must have been beaten with a killing stick.
'Bar?"
"The killing stick?" She thought for a moment, "Is it the beating that will demoralize a person after being imprisoned?"
"Yes, don't you know that?"
"No."
"It's really weird. The treatment is good. I haven't seen anything like this in years." The inmate raised his eyebrows and showed a strange look in his eyes. "You must have committed something else and you don't dare to tell me! Either you are.
There is a background! But looking at your clothes... you don’t look like a local? Where did you get the new products? Jiutian Kingdom has not been open to outside navigation for many years. How did you come here?"
Liu Shenghan smiled and thought he was an interesting person and quite smart. She did not answer this person's question, but asked him:
"I see you are very weird. How did you end up in jail?"
"Young lady, you have good eyesight." The prison inmate gave a thumbs up through the railing, "I am a person with sharp eyes and a quick mouth, and people in the world say I am clairvoyant and have an ear for the wind. As for me, I just knew something I shouldn't know, and before I even had time to go out and yell, I
Got arrested."
"Whose business has such great power?"
Liu Shenghan didn't ask him what he was talking about. She knew that this kind of person likes to tell the truth. If you follow his words, you will get into his trap. But you did the opposite and asked him what he thought.
If you don't ask, you will tell the truth.
"The power behind that man is the king!"
"Well, although it is reasonable, there are probably only a few people with the monarch as their direct background."
"Girl, do you know anything about medicine? You smell of herbs, which is very strong."
Liu Shenghan was slightly startled. She knew that there must be the smell of herbs on her body, but she usually used different smells to neutralize it. Although there was no smell at all, there were only a few people who could smell it. This person's nose
She didn't expect it to be so sharp, and she didn't expect that this person really didn't follow the routine at all and suddenly went off the rails. So she nodded.
"Understand a little bit."
"Then you must know that dead people can also be used as medicine?" Hot Book
"Well, that's true."
"I... saw them using dead people to make medicine!"
"Although this can be said to be a crooked way, but... no one is taking care of it? If there are no regulations in this industry, there will be many ways."
"Who dares to go against the people of Xiangyin Sect!"
"...Xiangyin Cult?"
Liu Shenghan realized that this person had misunderstood. In fact, it was not the monarch who was behind the Xiangyin Sect, but the monarch who listened to the Xiangyin Sect's command. However, she did not correct him, but planned to continue listening to him.
"The Xiangyin Cult uses corpses to make medicine... it sounds like something they can do. But, aren't you a cultist?"
"I don't believe it." He waved his hand, "Young master, I don't believe anyone! All these ghosts and ghosts are trying to make money from people! The monarch is colluding with them, and somehow there are so many corpses of unknown origin that can be used. I
My parents caused misery by giving them that illusion. I hate them forever! My grandfather’s grave was dug up by them.
, my aunt's girl who just died in infancy will not be spared, they want any corpse! If they are believers, they will fool them. After death, they should make contributions and repay their kindness; if they are not believers, their words will be better than their songs. According to their method
Let the body and soul of the dead be sent to heaven. Bah! If you ask me, after death, people should be buried in the ground."
It seems that he is also a miserable person. Liu Shenghan sighed and then asked
"You fought against the Xiangyin Sect, but you didn't die miserably in prison. You are still alive and well."
"That's because I was lucky. A few years ago, they caught me and beat me up. They wanted to beat me to death. However, on the occasion of the Mother of the Nation's birthday, the whole world celebrated it, and the king gave me a general amnesty, so they spared us the death penalty.
.I pretended to be crazy and stupid for many years, so I didn’t let that old guy trick me to death. In the past few years, he must have been too busy to deal with these prisoners, so I can take a breather."
"...It's actually like this." Sheng Han frowned, "But this is nothing new. Why do they want to kill you? Is it something out of a molehill?"
"Not only do they squeeze out the last bit of value from the dead, they also fish for - sharks!"
"Shark man?"
Liu Shenghan's expression of surprise was not exaggerated at all. It was not that he was unfamiliar with the word, but that he found the matter unbelievable. But in this case, the sharks were certainly not unreasonable to be wary of human beings.
"Originally, I estimated that they wanted the sharks to cry and turn their tears into beads, or to make them weave and work for free. However, the sharks died very quickly when they were out of the sea." The inmate shook his head as he spoke.
, said clearly, "So they caught Shark
People, just skin and debone them, and use them all as medicine! Use fat to refine oil and make everlasting lamps. Hey, did you know that people in the palace and people from the Xiangyin Sect will use candles made of shark oil and candles made of dead man oil?
Mixed together, do you know why?"
"I really don't know this."
"The Mermaid oil lamp has always been bright, but the pure oil lamp is very bright, and it is blinding. And the raw materials are limited, so they mix human oil into it to make the light softer, and the amount is large. Only human oil can do it, not any other animal
No oil extracted from plants can be blended with human fat."
"I see……"
"Hey, I've said so much, but you still haven't told me how you got in?"
"Well... I did not commit anything worthy of beheading like you in Xiangji Kingdom, but -"
Liu Shenghan rolled his eyes and was about to say something when his dark vision suddenly brightened up. The jailer came to them with a lamp and knocked hard on the iron railings.
"What's the fuss about? Be quiet! If you yell again, pull them all out - ugh!"
The light in front of him suddenly flashed strongly, and the two people in the prison stayed where they were. Someone suddenly hit the guard with a knife from behind, and he immediately collapsed silently. The murderer quickly lifted his body, and a third hand appeared in front of him.
He stood above the lantern and caught it to prevent it from smashing to the ground and causing a fire. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that there was someone standing next to the murderer, a woman.
Neither of them got their weapons, nor their packages. It seems that this time they just relied on their sheer strength and used a low-key and silent method. Although they don't know where their things are, they need to
Get out of here first, then you can have time to talk about other things.
All this happened so fast that the spectators could not react. Bai Ya threw the unconscious jailer aside. Jun Aoyan held the lamp and grabbed the iron railing with his other hand. Bai Ya clapped his hands gently and grabbed
He grabbed a railing next to him. They both pushed hard at the same time, and a big gap was created in the cell.
Under the shocked expression of the inmate, Liu Shenghan stood up, brushed off the dust on his body, and walked out calmly. Before leaving, Liu Shenghan turned back and glanced at the prisoner who was grinning from ear to ear.
"Stop dawdling." Bai Ya yelled.
Liu Shenghan raised the corners of her lips, and the light overflowed from behind her.
"But we're about to do something worthy of beheading."
