Chen Kuang raised his eyebrows but did not agree immediately.
He was silent for a few seconds and then asked:
"All? Or just the few who worked the previous shift?"
Of course it is impossible for Zhou Jun to only let these few people guard the prison.
Judging from what Chen Kuang heard when he had a high fever in the past few days, there were three groups of guards guarding the prison, and they would rotate every four hours.
A group is a corps, that is, five people, led by a corps leader.
Li Erhuang, who took the lead in bullying Huo Hengxuan, was a corps commander.
But this is only the weakest link in Tianlao's defense strength.
These jailers only do simple menial tasks, such as taking people for interrogation and then bringing them back, and they have no power.
The real guards of the heavenly prison are the 50,000 Zhou troops who are still stationed in the imperial city and surrounded by layers of soldiers, and... the two mysterious "immortal masters" mentioned by the jailers.
These two men had been meditating outside the prison for five days without eating or drinking.
He is 100% a practitioner of the Great Zhou Sect.
If you want to escape from the prison, just killing the jailers is useless. At the same time, you may also alert these two people.
It's an absolutely thankless thing.
Does Huo Hengxuan want to make things difficult for him, or does he want to test him?
Chen Kuang actually thinks it's the former.
But at this moment, he could only think of it as the latter.
This old man's exposure had already caused him to lose the trust he had just built with a steamed bun.
If a letter of surrender could gain the old man's trust, it would be even more useful than Mrs. Liang Guo's trust.
It's not impossible to just kill a few people who work shifts...
Chen Kuang seriously thought about the feasibility.
Mrs. Liang Guo was frightened when she heard this. How come the matter of killing several people was like killing several chickens in his mouth?
She didn't dare to take a breath and glanced at Chen Kuang secretly.
He looks polite and polite, and I thought he was a good person, but it turns out that a person really cannot be judged by his appearance...
Huo Hengxuan looked at Chen Kuang with a serious expression, chuckled and said:
"you guess?"
Chen Kuang: "..."
Damn the Riddler, right?
The purpose of having a long-term confrontation with you is to show that we are both smart people, and you and I can talk as equally as possible at this moment.
Wouldn't it be nice to be more relaxed?
Sure enough, what he hates most is the presence of such a scheming old man.
With a dark face, Chen Kuang turned around and sat down in the corner to show his refusal to continue talking.
Huo Hengxuan didn't say anything. He seemed to feel an itch on his back. He glanced at the railing next to him and leaned against it, rubbing it back and forth like a skinny monkey. There was no image at all.
Mrs. Liang Guo blinked, feeling a little at a loss.
After a few words of conversation, the two of them seemed to have reached a consensus and were in peace.
So is Chen Kuang a spy of the Zhou Kingdom?
Should she still trust the other person?
Fortunately, Huo Hengxuan suddenly remembered and forgot to put an end to this matter.
"Madam, please rest first."
"The battle between saints will not come to an end so quickly."
Mrs. Liang Guo nodded quickly, looked at Chen Kuang and hesitated to speak, but finally retreated to the corner and hugged the sleepy little princess and remained silent.
This silence lasted until midnight.
The strange starlight outside the window is still dazzling.
The ground shook from time to time, and the jailer stayed up all night.
It seems that as Huo Hengxuan said, in a short period of time, the winner will indeed be indistinguishable.
Mrs. Liang Guo still looked up at the window that was sealed with iron bars. Even though she was extremely sleepy and couldn't see anything, she still tried her best to keep her eyes open.
But before long, his head moved forward bit by bit like a tumbler.
Chen Kuang thought of the scene in which she struggled for a long time with vacant eyes after being coerced by the jailer.
He was scratching his head in his mind, thinking about why Huo Hengxuan suddenly hesitated just now when things came to a close.
Half a moment.
He asked abruptly: "Madam, what if... our ancestor loses? What will you do?"
Mrs. Liang Guo said vaguely: "If I lose, I will..."
Just what?
Nothing more happened, the woman had already fallen asleep.
"Bang Bang Bang..."
The jailer who temporarily acted as watchman rang the wooden clapper at midnight.

[You distributed the steamed buns to Mrs. Liang Guo, indirectly saving the lives of 50,000 people, and obtained the passive "Inedia": those who eat their breath will become gods and live long, and those who do not eat will not die and become gods. You no longer need food.]
Chen Kuang had already fallen asleep at this time, and a huge question mark popped up in his sleepy brain.
"…50,000 people?"
…
Liangguo Imperial City, on the east corner tower.
From here you can overlook the whole city, and the entrance to the Tianlao is in the turret.
Naturally, this corner tower became the base camp of the 50,000 Zhou troops currently stationed here.
Feifeng General Li Hongling, who led the black-armored cavalry to break through the imperial city gate, was listening to his adjutant report on the results of today's interrogation.
"...So, the only result you can produce in these five days is no results?"
A distorted, hoarse, cold voice came from under the black armor.
"Is the Secret Punishment Department just for a living?"
This Feifeng General is actually nearly two meters tall, extremely tall. The jet black armor covering his whole body is thick and ferocious, with gleaming scales. He carries a giant halberd on his back and has a terrifying aura.
The eyes behind the visor were scarlet, faintly glowing with blood.
Standing under the eaves of this turret, it looks like an iron wall.
The adjutant was overlooked and did not dare to raise his head or wipe his sweat.
He replied tremblingly:
"It is true that all means have been used, but Huo Hengxuan is really stubborn. He even endured the punishment of grooming, but he still didn't say anything..."
Li Hongling was silent for a while, and finally spoke when the adjutant was about to kneel down.
"Continue the trial."
"Well, I'm afraid I'll be tortured again..."
Li Hongling narrowed her eyes and looked at the starry night sky.
The city below was brightly lit, there were shouts of killing outside the city, and the spiritual light of the practitioners' spells faded and appeared. It was obvious that they were encountering a fierce battle.
"One last interrogation, if he still doesn't speak..."
"Then Chu Wenruo has enjoyed it for long enough. Now that everyone has been fished out, let's... interrogate our noble Mrs. Liang Guo."
"yes."
The adjutant nodded quickly and then reported a new situation.
"The musician who was about to die from a high fever actually recovered and gave the steamed buns to Chu Wenruo?"
Li Hongling snorted coldly:
"A foolish and loyal person will die, so don't worry about him."
The adjutant nodded and was about to leave.
Li Hongling looked at the practitioners who were attacking the city and felt unhappy. She clicked her tongue and called them back:
"Forget it, since you want to live and die with your old master so much, then let him do it."
The adjutant understands and follows the good advice:
"Then I'll take them to the Secret Punishment Department next time."
"You want to interrogate ordinary people?"
A cold and soft female voice suddenly came.
Li Hongling's eyes were cold: "Not an ordinary person, but - a person from the Liang Kingdom."
"Master Shen Xian, I know you are compassionate, but you won't interfere even in this, right?"
"Your Xuan Shen Dao Sect is just here to lobby, so your control is too broad."
She turned her head and saw a man and a woman coming up the stairs.
The man is middle-aged, wearing a white shirt, looks elegant and polite, and is shaking a blank folding fan in his hand.
The woman was dressed in black and green gauze, her face was blurry, except for a pair of eyes that shone like water from under the gauze.
When she heard this, her eyes were calm and her tone was calm and authentic:
"General Li has misunderstood. I just want to see how you interrogate. I have no intention of interfering."
