There was silence in the camp at midnight. One of the two golden soldiers escorting Mu Dongbai glanced at the bright moon in the night sky and yawned. But just as he opened his mouth halfway, he suddenly heard a sound not far away.
The sound made the two of them alert at the same time: "Who is it?"
Suddenly a strong force came from their heads, and the two heads hit each other hard. They fainted and fell to the ground without even making a sound. Xu Zizhen turned around from behind them with a smile. The Kingdom of Jin seemed to be quite lacking.
Iron, the ordinary golden soldier only wears a leather hat and doesn't even have an iron helmet, but it saves him a lot of effort. He can knock them out with just one press of his hands.
Xu Zizhen dragged the two people aside, searched them, and finally found what he needed, a small black sign with a large golden character on it - Handsome!
"Eh? Is this brand customized for me?" Xu Zizhen grinned and put the brand in his arms, turned around and ran back along the way he came.
The wall of the cell is not too high, and the door is extremely simple. It is so thin that it can be broken with a kick. But Xu Zizhen knows that this place seems to have such a low defense, but it is actually in danger at every step. There are many dangers all around.
Let’s not talk about ambushes and hidden stakes. I’m afraid there is still a lot of power hidden in this courtyard.
He was only wearing a simple and ordinary piece of coarse cloth, but he walked in so arrogantly in front of the numerous hidden objects. There were no guards at the door, but as soon as he entered, several figures suddenly appeared on both sides, surrounding him.
He stood up, the steel knife shining coldly in the moonlight.
"Who broke into the camp?"
Xu Zizhen raised his eyelids and glanced at the opposite person. The person speaking was a middle-aged man with sharp and powerful eyes. He was obviously not mediocre. The other people around him were also similar to that person. Judging from the position and posture, this man
Several of them look like members of the same family.
"Get out of the way." Facing the siege, Xu Zizhen didn't show any panic at all, but looked a little impatient.
His behavior obviously stunned those people for a moment. The middle-aged man opened his mouth and was about to speak again, but saw Xu Zizhen flipping his hand and showing the sign. His attitude suddenly became very respectful, and he waved his hand away.
Opening the encirclement, he cupped his hands and said, "I wonder what your lord is doing here late at night?"
Xu Zizhen was shocked. From his title, it can be seen that this middle-aged man is probably not a Jin man, but probably a member of the martial arts community of the Song Dynasty. They are placed here as gatekeepers probably because of their high skills.
In addition, they use their experience and knowledge to identify possible prison robbers.
Thinking of this, Xu Zizhen's heart suddenly became warm. This cell was indeed as he had guessed. It was by no means as simple as it appeared on the surface. Maybe there was a surprise inside.
His thoughts were spinning, but his face remained calm. He just said calmly: "The right commander sent me to see a few people. Maybe I can get them to tell the truth." As he spoke, he took out a round ball from his sleeve.
When the elixir comes, it is about the size of a thumb, and its whole body is dark gray. Even if you are not close, you can smell a faint fishy smell.
The middle-aged man's pupils shrank. He couldn't understand what kind of medicine it was, but judging from the color and smell of the medicine and the man's words, it was obviously not a good medicine. No wonder he dared to walk around in the military camp wearing ordinary clothes.
Here comes the master of medicine and stone recruited by You Shuai.
"Sir, please follow me." The middle-aged man turned sideways slightly, Xu Zizhen nodded proudly and walked in.
After entering the door, there was an empty patio, and after passing through, there was a row of low bungalows. The middle-aged man took Xu Zizhen straight into the rightmost one. However, Xu Zizhen was stunned for a moment after entering. The room was empty and there was nothing.
Just when he was in a daze, the middle-aged man pressed something somewhere, and a large hole suddenly opened in the bluestone ground in front of him, revealing a gloomy tunnel opening.
Xu Zizhen was surprised in his heart, but there was no trace of it on his face. He followed the middle-aged man with his face still as deep as water. It didn't take long for him to get down to the tunnel. After walking about twenty steps, his eyes suddenly opened up.
This place is actually an extremely deep dungeon. There is a smell of moisture and decay in the air, which is disgusting. There is an open space at the bottom of the steps without anything, but the middle-aged man is cautious and
He warned: "Sir, be careful, follow my footsteps, and don't make a wrong step."
Xu Zizhen was shocked again. Is there any mechanism in this place? Why do I feel like I have entered the Sky Tower? I would rather not end up like Bai Yutang, the golden squirrel, who was shot to death by random arrows...
With a worried heart, he followed the middle-aged man step by step into the depths, and finally came to the place he wanted to find.
In front of him was a dark and narrow passage, with cells on both sides. The doors were all made of fine iron, with a small transom window above. Xu Zizhen stood at the door of the first cell and looked in through the window.
At a glance, as expected, the person imprisoned here is a middle-aged man covered in blood. Judging from his clothes, he must be from the Song Dynasty, but he doesn't look like Su San's father at his age. He is probably a righteous hero from some area who was favored by Zong Wang.
After being captured, he was imprisoned here.
Xu Zizhen did not stop and continued to walk in. He glanced at the window of each cell. The middle-aged man followed step by step without saying a word, just like a follower who was waiting around. Xu Zizhen didn't mind. Anyway, he had already planned.
It doesn't matter whether this person follows or not.
After looking at several rooms with no one he knew, Xu Zizhen gradually became anxious. Just when he was about to lose his patience, he finally saw the person he was looking for in the next cell - Mu Dongbai.
The handsome young boy in the past is now unrecognizable. His white clothes are stained with blood, his hair is disheveled, he is sitting on the ground leaning against the wall, his eyelids are drooped, and he does not know whether he is sleeping or awake. It is obvious that he has suffered a lot in the hands of Wu Shu just now.
After suffering, Xu Zizhen hesitated and still did not enter the house. Mu Dongbai wanted to save him, but it was not his first target.
Finally, Huangtian paid off and Xu Zizhen found a familiar figure in a cell in a corner. With the light of the torch swinging in the corridor, an old and haggard face sitting cross-legged in the room was reflected. Xu Zizhen was shocked and surprised.
I was so happy that I almost screamed.
Taoist Priest Xuanyi! Sure enough, he was imprisoned here!
Xu Zizhen took a breath to calm down, turned around and said to the middle-aged man: "Open the door." He raised the elixir in his hand.
The middle-aged man glanced at him and said hesitantly: "This... sir, be careful, this Taoist nun's skills are extremely extraordinary. Even if she is seriously injured now, she should not be underestimated."
Xu Zizhen's heart sank. Taoist priest Xuan Yi was indeed injured.
Soon the door of the cell was opened. Taoist priest Xuanyi still sat cross-legged without opening his eyes. He just said calmly: "Why, is Yao Daxia here to persuade the poor Taoist again?"
