Chapter 16 Jailbreak is not just about breaking walls
Through the dim candlelight, Li Si saw the filthy cell.
Ye Qing's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his body was bloody, and his clothes were in tatters and his true colors could not be seen.
As for Chen Zhi, the murderous maniac who killed many people, his left eyebrow bone was swollen, his face was bloody, and his original face was basically unrecognizable.
However, the ragged Ye Qing was lying curled up in the corner, shivering.
Chen Zhi, who looked even worse, sat comfortably in front of the cell wall.
The two people's completely different postures make them stand out.
After hearing Li Si's voice, Chen Zhi opened his eyes that were swollen to a slit, smiled and showed a few big yellow teeth missing, raised his chained hand, pointed at his miserable face and said:
"Li Tou, this guy is a bit difficult to deal with. Can you please drink some wine?"
"You're not disabled, are you?"
Li Si frowned, not really understanding Ye Qing's condition, and asked worriedly.
"It's just because we were afraid of crippling him that we became like this. Don't worry, we kept our hands open!"
Chen Zhi's resentful tone made Li Si feel relieved. He knew that Chen Zhi was still useful. A prisoner who was destined to die would be a vicious dog that could be driven at will if he was kind to him, so he responded quickly:
"Okay, well done, I'll get you some wine later!"
"As long as you don't get beaten to death or crippled, and you continue to play, I'll have food and drink for you!"
"Hey, thank you Li Tou!"
Chen Zhi immediately stood up excitedly, walked quickly to the crouched body, and started punching and kicking him.
Seeing this, Li Si turned away with satisfaction.
After a few breaths, Chen Zhi quickly retreated, but he still waved his fists and feet, making the chains on his body rustle.
At the same time, Chen Zhi looked fearfully at Ye Qing, who sat up from the ground and spit out blood on the moldy straw with an expressionless face, and quickly explained in a low voice:
"Sir, I didn't mean to do it. I accidentally threw the chain on your face."
Ye Qing, who did not speak, leaned against the cold wall and closed his eyes to rest.
Chen Zhi, who had been performing alone for a while, stopped panting, looked at Ye Qing fearfully, thought for a moment, silently came over, and carefully tapped Ye Qing's legs.
The jingling of the iron chains was actually somewhat pleasant in this silent cell.
Ye Qing, who opened his eyes, looked at Chen Zhi's flattering attitude and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
After a moment of silence, Ye Qing asked softly:
"You get angry and kill someone after being bullied?"
In an instant, the sweet sound of gold and iron clashing disappeared.
Chen Zhi lowered his head. After a long time, the murderer who had a ferocious look on his face last night and wanted to kill Ye Qing, fluorescent light appeared in the corners of his eyes.
The salty tears and the wounds that penetrated the corners of his eyes made Chen Zhi's face twitch, and he squeezed out a flattering smile, but his voice was very hoarse, and he said with reluctance:
"You are really amazing, you can guess all this."
"You don't know how to fight. You're just pretending to be fierce. Besides, you want to live."
After Ye Qing finished speaking, Chen Zhi trembled all over and then asked tentatively:
"Master, you are so powerful, you are definitely not an ordinary person. Then the jailer asked me to teach you a lesson without hurting your life. You can definitely get out, right?"
Ye Qing, who didn't answer, felt a move in his heart and said calmly: "The person who harmed you is still alive."
The cell fell into deathly silence again.
After a long time, Chen Zhicai spoke:
"I am just a farmer with 20 acres of thin farmland. The squire took a fancy to my family's land and my wife. A few months ago, when I came home from work, I saw the squire insulting my wife. I got angry and killed him with a knife.
Two servants chased him to his home and killed several more people. When they were about to kill him, they were stopped by the evil servants, and my wife..."
The words stopped abruptly, but Ye Qing had already guessed that Chen Zhi's wife was unwilling to have her innocence ruined and committed suicide to prove her chastity. He also guessed why Chen Zhi was still alive until now.
Thinking that he was in a similar situation, Ye Qing said bitterly:
"The wine and meat in Zhumen stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road. The prosperity and decline are so close, and the melancholy is difficult to describe again."
"This world is so unfair!"
Listening to this very sad and angry poem, although Chen Zhi could not understand it, his unwillingness became even more intense.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said: "The squire just thought that I could die in prison, so that I could be convicted of taking the initiative to kill someone."
"Bah, he is dreaming. If I want to live, even if I die in prison, the property will belong to my brother. I will never let him succeed."
"As long as I live, I will have the opportunity to meet the prefect Qingtian and give me justice."
What Chen Zhi said was illogical, but Ye Qing also understood it, and sympathy appeared on his face.
How difficult is it to meet the prefect of Qingtian? How could a fourth-rank official come to this prison, and how could he happen to notice this framed death row inmate?
Moreover, he has no power and is currently in prison.
He is not dead at this moment because the squire did it deliberately.
It is possible that his brother had compromised with the big dog because of fear.
Ye Qing sighed, thinking that Chen Zhi was helping him with his acting, and at the same time, in order to save himself, he gave some advice:
"Murder is a serious case, and the file will definitely be seen by the prefect. But you have been in jail for more than a month, but you have not been interrogated by the prefect. You must have been cleared by the squire. The village did not spread it, and the prefect suppressed the file. The prefect cannot
Know.”
Wow!
The chain shook violently, Chen Zhi gritted his teeth and roared ferociously:
"How dare they, how dare they despise the king's law like this."
"There is no royal law to speak of here!"
Ye Qing frowned and scolded:
"Silence!"
Chen Zhi, who immediately silenced his voice, immediately knelt down in front of Ye Qing, kowtowed and begged: "Sir, if you can read poetry, you must be a scholar. You understand the law and know the secrets of this."
"Please give me a clear path so that I can avenge my wife. I will be your bull and horse for the rest of my life, no, my whole life!"
Boom, boom, boom!
The dull voice made Ye Qing's eyes flash, and he said:
"Huaiyang Magistrate Chen, the blue sky is clear, we are a household name throughout Yangzhou, and our reputation far exceeds that of the governor."
"If he knows about you, he will definitely overturn the case for you, clear your name, and change your charge of active homicide to self-protection homicide."
"You are in prison and if you want to see him, you have no choice but to escape!"
prison Break?
Chen Zhi was stunned, raised his bleeding forehead, and looked at Ye Qing in disbelief.
"Master, you are not joking, are you?"
"This prison is made of bluestone, which is extremely hard, and the cage is made of thick solid wood. It is constantly being chopped and burned with knives and fires. How can you escape?"
Ye Qing, whose eyes flashed, whispered:
"Escape from prison is not only about breaking the wall and breaking the prison, but also taking the jailer hostage."
Gudong!
Chen Zhi swallowed his saliva and looked at the handsome Ye Qing, who transformed into a terrifying evil ghost in his eyes.
Madman, completely madman.
Killing is a serious crime, escaping from prison is a serious crime of beheading, and holding a jailer hostage is also a serious crime of beheading.
According to Ye Qing's idea, even if he succeeded in meeting the Qingtian magistrate, he would be able to clear his name.
In the end, there is still no way to escape beheading, no matter what, you will die!
This idea is a piece of shit!
Ye Qing said in a persuasive manner: "You are already in deep danger of death. If you give it a try, you might be able to avenge your wife and let the squire be buried with you."
revenge!
Buried with him!
These four words were deeply embedded in Chen Zhi's heart.
Eyes flashing, hatred building, a moment later.
Chen Zhi kowtowed again and pleaded with a firm voice:
