The way to enter the prison is to jump into the whirlpool in the pond.
But when Xu Chong passed through the vortex, he didn't feel any weightlessness.
It just dimmed and brightened, and I appeared in a new place.
It seems to be a small courtyard with houses, huts, kitchen sheds, vegetable gardens, and a small pond.
It covers an area of about half an acre.
Above is an endless blue sky with no sun in sight.
"It looks no different from the outside. Is this the cave?"
Xu Chong looked around and then felt his own situation.
Sure enough, he didn't feel the presence of force.
Even the Yin Shen in Zi Mansion fell into complete silence.
It was as if he was transformed from a godly man into an ordinary person in an instant.
Apart from the fact that his physical quality has been improved by the ninth level of body washing, there is nothing extraordinary about him.
"The ninth level of body washing, the physical fitness without strength... is stronger than ordinary people, but the strength is limited."
After confirming his situation, Xu Chong thought silently: "Panel."
[Name: Xu Chong]
[Zifu: The Yin God changes]
[Huang Ting: None]
[Yuchi: None]
[Side Skills: Reaching for the Stars (comprehension), Greed of Light (first practice for beginners)]
[Rule: Immortality (expends 10,000 spiritual sources to activate)]
【Lingyuan:51】
[The concentration of spiritual energy is high and the spiritual source is being generated]
"Sure enough, it can generate spiritual energy!"
Xu Chong breathed a sigh of relief.
When he came to prison, he only cared about two things, one was whether the panel could be opened, and the other was whether the spiritual source could be generated.
Now the panel appears, proving that neither of these is a problem.
"The concentration of spiritual energy is so high that it deserves to be a cave."
Xu Chong remembered that when he accompanied Duqin Tianjian, he was reminded that "the spiritual energy concentration is medium."
Obviously, the spiritual source generation speed of the prison must be faster than 1 o'clock in three days.
The only problem is that all those plus signs have disappeared.
Whether it's the one behind Zifu, Huangting, Yuchi, or the sideman, there is no plus sign at this time.
Therefore, even the panel cannot bypass the rules of Forbidden Heaven and Jedi Earth, allowing him to improve while he is in prison.
But Xu Chong didn't care. He only needed to accumulate spiritual resources. It would be the same if he waited until he could break through.
"Let's see what's going on here first."
Xu Chong came to his senses and walked towards the two-story building.
Dong Dong.
Xu Chong knocked on the door.
Before he could call, the door opened slightly with this slight force.
"No one?"
Xu Chong raised his eyebrows and pushed the door open.
Main hall, back room, side room, stairs, tables and chairs, decorations...
After a while, Xu Chong determined that this was a very ordinary and common two-story building, almost similar to the place where he lived in Qintian Prison.
And there's no one inside.
In other words, this entire courtyard is a single-room prison cell.
The only difference is that most of the entities are made of the same material as the Forbidden Shackles.
"No wonder Douzi said that the first floor only locks up dignitaries, and they won't last long... This is not a prison, it's clearly a vacation."
Xu Chong shook his head and came to the east study room on the first floor.
There are pens, inks, paper and inkstones, and books on wooden shelves.
Xu Chong casually picked up a book and flipped through it.
'Since my debut, I have traveled across the capital for more than ten years and have never met an enemy. Even the protector of Taiping Dao can only bow his head and submit to me.'
'Now that I am jealous of a villain, I am here in the imperial prison. I think it is fate, so I will leave here my master's original secret method, hoping that those who will come after me will cherish it.'
This is the content of the first page.
Can you be invincible in the capital after your debut?
It seemed quite rhetorical, but it actually made Xu Chong a little curious and turned to the second page.
"..."
With just one glance, Xu Chong was completely speechless.
These so-called original secrets turned out to be some bed techniques.
It’s just densely packed small characters, and accompanied by pictures, it’s really outrageous.
Of course, there are even more outrageous things...
Annotations from late comers.
‘I beg to differ here’, ‘I am enlightened, I am enlightened!’, ‘You dare to deceive me, you thief’, ‘Your method is indeed wonderful, but if you don’t use it innately, how should you deal with it?’…
Xu Chong was speechless.
This "not using" is also called not using the vagina. To put it bluntly, it means that it doesn't have that ability.
If it is not used innately, it will be castrated by nature.
The most egregious thing is that there is a comment that directly covers the main text: How dare you bully me?!
These words are written as sharp as a knife and filled with anger.
It must be that someone who has read this book went out to apply it, but found that it was useless, so he tried his best to return to the prison and left this comment.
Xu Chong put the book back and flipped through several others.
After a while, he completely lost interest in this study room.
Wherever there is a collection of books, they are all ways of having fun that some noble gentlemen have figured out.
The joy of taking people, the joy of taking things.
The entertainment includes flowers, birds, insects, fish, antiques and curios, fine wine and food, outings and hunting, etc.
If people are happy, it's not limited to men and women...it's really eye-catching.
After leaving the small building, there is nothing unusual in the yard. There are fruits and vegetables in the vegetable garden and fish and shrimp in the pond.
Xu Chong walked straight out of the courtyard.
In any case, this prison doesn't even have a door.
It's just a hollow arch. On the opposite side of the arch, about a foot away, is another arch.
Lan Jing was leaning on the arch opposite, looking at the sky at a 45-degree angle, with a look of infatuation on his face.
Xu Chong was not prepared to say anything, so he raised his legs and was about to step out.
"stop!!"
Lan Jing suddenly spoke up and stopped Xu Chong.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Chong frowned.
"Which brother is this talented person from? Isn't he a bit unfamiliar?"
Lan Jing smiled politely.
"Lu Donghua, I have met the young Duke."
Xu Chong made random nonsense.
The Wuxiang Yi changed his appearance. Once solidified, he no longer needed any strength and would not be dispelled by the rules of the Forbidden World. Therefore, Lan Jing did not recognize him.
"Brother Lu, you're welcome, just call me Lan Jing."
Lan Jing waved his hand, not daring to exaggerate.
There were many people with the surname Lu in Beijing, but the one with the most prominent background was Lu Zhong.
It is obvious that Lu Donghua is the descendant of Cifu.
"Brother Lu, is this your first time in this prison?"
Lan Jing asked again.
"How did Brother Lan know?"
Xu Chong raised his eyebrows.
"Brother Lu doesn't know yet."
Lan Jing pointed to the ground in front of him, "You can't get out of this arch. Once you step out, it will bounce back. It will make you dizzy at least, or... dizzy at worst, but you can't get out anyway."
"...Thank you, Brother Lan, for reminding me."
Xu Chong bowed his hands and was speechless.
He can definitely go out, but he can't go out in front of others.
After all, you are here to go to jail.
"It's just a small thing."
Lan Jing shook his head, then sighed sadly and leaned against the arch again.
"I said Lan Jing, can you stop sighing here?"
A head poked out from the arch diagonally opposite Xu Chong and said wordlessly: "You have only been in here for a long time, and I have already heard you sigh eight hundred times."
"nonsense."
Lan Jing frowned, "Obviously there are only eighty-two times."
"..."
The man choked and asked, "Why do you remember so clearly?"
"Because, I missed her eighty-two times, hey..."
Lan Jing looked infatuated again, "It's eighty-three times now."
"..."
The man was completely suppressed and looked at Xu Chong depressedly, "I'm the eldest son of Marquis Changxin, Zhao Jue. I've met Brother Lu."
"Disrespect, disrespect."
Xu Chong cupped his hands, knowing that his nonsense name might remind people of Lu Zhong.
"Haha, Lan Jing must have been thrown in by the female devil. I wonder why Brother Lu came in?"
Zhao Jue asked with a smile.
"What a female devil!"
Lan Jing was instantly furious, leaning out half of his body to glare at Zhao Jue, "I don't allow you to say that about her!"
"...Okay, okay, I made a mistake, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Zhao Jue immediately admitted his mistake and said depressedly: "But you must have been thrown in by her."
"This time is different!"
Lan Jing was instantly fascinated and said with a happy face: "This time, she didn't hit me."
"..."
Xu Chong was speechless now.
Zhao Jue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said to Xu Chong: "Brother Lu, just get used to it, Lan Jing is like this."
"This...he looks like this..."
Xu Chong couldn't help but speak.
Zhao Jue's expression changed drastically and he waved his hands repeatedly.
However it was still too late.
"How long?"
Xu Chong asked the second half of his sentence.
"Ha! That's a long story."
Lan Jing immediately became energetic, "That day, the wind was beautiful and the sun was beautiful..."
Zhao Jue shrugged at Xu Chong with a helpless expression.
After a while, Xu Chong finally heard the beginning.
To put it bluntly, when Lan Jing was thirteen years old, he followed his father to a ranch outside the city for hunting, and was attacked by Taiping Road.
Fortunately, Dou Tianyuan arrived in time and killed the powerful enemy.
That time, Dou Zi also went there, and they fell in love at first sight.
It's that simple.
If nothing else, this hobby of starting from the beginning should have been learned from Dou Zi... and it has also been carried forward.
In Lan Jing's words, both he and Dou Zi are obviously just a sidekick. The two of them didn't even exchange a word, but it became a touching love story of life and death.
"Brother Lan... is amazing."
Xu Chong's face trembled, he looked at Zhao Jue and changed the subject: "I wonder why Brother Zhao came in?"
"Well."
Zhao Jue touched his nose and hesitated to speak.
"No need to guess, his father must have thrown him here because he refused to study."
Lan Jing seized the opportunity to retaliate, "How long have you been here? I remember the last time I met you outside was half a year ago... Is your father planning to let you die here?"
"That's what he said..."
Zhao Jue looked defeated, "I should have guessed earlier, he wanted my second brother to inherit the title."
"Tch, you can't blame others."
Lan Jing sneered, "Who told you that you haven't even passed the Tongsheng entrance exam now..."
"It's easy to say, but do you know how difficult it is to take the test for children?"
"...I've already given birth to people."
"You are you and I am me, can it be the same? I am now at the seventh level of Tongmai, what about you?"
"Tongmai is the first level, but I am a Juren. I will surpass you after washing my body."
The two began to compare in depth, and Xu Chong returned to the small building quietly.
The trivial talk among these nobles is really a waste of hearing.
"Douzi said she wanted to arrange a good place for me, but she arranged it opposite Lan Jing... She probably wanted me to teach Lan Jing a lesson for her."
"It's a pity that it's none of my business."
In this way, Xu Chong quietly waited for the spiritual source to be generated.
The first day passed, 51 o'clock.
The next day passed and it was still 51 o'clock.
…
It wasn't until the fifth day that Lingyuan barely rose by 1 point.
Looking at the '52' on the panel, Xu Chong frowned deeply.
It shouldn't be.
The concentration of spiritual energy in Dudu is high, but why is the generation speed slower than that of the Blessed Land?
"Does it...do we have to go to the lower level?"
Xu Chong thought and walked out of the small building.
I don’t know if they stopped talking or if they had already gone out. Lan Jing and Zhao Jue were nowhere to be seen.
It's quite convenient.
Xu Chong stepped out of the arch.
Sure enough, he was not bounced back, nor did he feel dizzy.
The road is only one foot wide, and as you can see from both sides, there are all these arches, about six hundred in number.
At the end of the road, there was a blocked wall on one side, and on the other side, there was a whirlpool-like thing standing there.
Not surprisingly, it is the entrance to the next level.
Xu Chong didn't think much, quickly stepped forward, and dove in. He didn't meet anyone else in the process.
The light changes from bright to dark and then to bright again.
This time, Xu Chong did not appear in the courtyard.
What was in front of him was a nearly identical scene.
The road is about ten feet wide, with arches on both sides of the road.
It's just that the distance between the arches is much smaller, and the number is not as many as on the first floor.
Dou Zi said that there should be no one on this floor now.
So Xu Chong walked straight towards the vortex at the end of the other side.
As I passed by, I took a few glances through the arch.
The courtyard is still a courtyard, but the area is reduced by about half, the two-story building has become one, and the pond has become a well.
"Haha, you can have this condition even if you offend Long Yan. Emperor Qing is really compassionate."
Xu Chong smiled and walked through the vortex.
I thought he would feel the same way, but as soon as he appeared on the third floor, he stumbled suddenly.
"Gravity has increased."
Xu Chong frowned and stood firm.
Fortunately, the increase is not much and does not affect his movement.
Looking up, I saw that the road was still ten feet wide and there was still a whirlpool at the end.
However, the courtyards on both sides were transformed into tile-roofed houses.
The small courtyard of about a hundred square meters is surrounded by fences and arranged in two rows.
It looks like Baiyang Lane.
Baiyang Lane...
Xu Chong's eyes darkened, and he raised his legs and took a step forward.
"Oh, what a strange face."
After walking a few steps, a voice came from the yard on the left.
A middle-aged man wearing a plain prison uniform with disheveled hair is watering the vegetable field.
Xu Chong had seen him a long time ago, but he didn't intend to pay attention and continued walking to the other end.
"Tsk, it's a dog-powerful thing."
The middle-aged man spat and cursed: "If you have the ability, tell me your name. When I leave, I will read your book!"
"Zhao Jue."
Xu Chong didn't even look back.
"...Who are you trying to trick? I am the Zhao family!"
Middle-aged and frustrated.
"Blue View."
"...You pretend that I haven't seen Mr. Lan before?"
The middle-aged man stared at Xu Chongyuan's retreating back and shouted.
Not far away, someone else tried to stop Xu Chong, and there was more than one of them.
"Little brother, help me send a message back to the Li family, and you will be rewarded generously..."
"Brother, stop it, I won't let you bring news. Just go to the upper two floors and get me some meat..."
"I was wronged. I want to see Mr. Dou..."
"..."
Xu Chong ignored everything like this.
Anyway, he is using a false disguise. Even if the prince is locked up here, he still dares to offend him.
If you are tired of lying around, just go up and slap her with a big mouth.
Soon, Xu Chong walked to the whirlpool and plunged into it.
Those who had been paying attention to him were stunned.
"He didn't come to this level for interrogation?"
"This is not important...how dare he go down like that?"
"Haha, I'm so stunned. I'm going to have to endure hardship."
"..."
Xu Chong didn't know this.
But he really suffered.
As soon as he appeared on the fourth floor, before he could clearly see the surrounding scene, the strong gravity pushed him to the ground.
"..."
Xu Chong's whole body was stuck to the soil, and he could not recover for a long time.
You know, he doesn't have the strength to protect his physical body now.
Even if you have experienced body washing, it only makes your physical body pure, and it is not much better than ordinary people.
Fortunately, the ground was soft, otherwise he might have been injured by this gravity attack.
Even if a sharp stone hits the vital point...
"Damn it, why didn't Dou Zi mention such an important thing?"
"Well...she didn't know I was going to go deeper."
Xu Chong groaned for a long time before getting up, gasping for air.
Only then did he see the scene on the fourth floor clearly.
What he came into contact with when he fell just now was not soil, but clouds.
The entire fourth floor is a sea of gray clouds.
In fact, it cannot be called a sea of clouds. Considering the entire cloud area, it is more appropriate to call it a lake of clouds.
In the cloud lake, there are nearly a hundred pieces of land similar to the top of the mountain piercing the clouds, covering an area of about fifty or sixty square meters.
It is bounded by a low fence, and there are simple thatched houses and small canals dug by hand like ditches.
There is a vegetable patch, but the types and sizes of the plants growing on it are obviously different from those on the previous level.
Looking around, there were only six prisoners near the top of the Hundred Peaks.
The six people sat cross-legged with expressionless faces, seemingly turning a blind eye to Xu Chong's arrival.
He looked indifferent to life and death.
No need to ask, they are all stubborn people who refuse to explain.
Xu Chong didn't bother to pay attention. He got up with enough strength and walked step by step towards the whirlpool in the distance.
This process was a bit slow and took him half an hour.
Arriving in front of the whirlpool, Xu Chong lay down directly on the ground, preparing to crawl to the fifth floor.
"You will die."
The only woman among the six spoke up, "Even if you crawl in, you will die."
Xu Chong made a move.
"You are so troubled, why don't you let him die and be buried with us?"
"That is, you are a rebel, when did you care about the life and death of the blood-robed guard?"
"Let your Taoist master know about it and I will kick you out of Taiping Dao."
"..."
Several other people spoke out and made sarcastic remarks.
Xu Chong finally understood.
This woman is a rebel, and the other five are officials who have committed capital crimes.
