Infinite Script Killing
Chapter 605
At night, Yuyang City was quiet.
After the first watch, a curfew will be imposed in the city, and no idlers are allowed to walk around the streets unless they have important duties.
In the southeast corner of Yuyang, there are sparse private houses, and where you can't even see a light at first glance is the prison of Yuyang City.
Generally speaking, there are exclusive cells behind the yamen. If you are caught committing petty theft, committing adultery, cheating, or breaking the news, you will be locked up behind the yamen.
But if they are repeat offenders, they will not have this treatment and must be sent to a special prison.
Not only do they have to be shackled, but in severe cases, they are also put in a water prison, and they are even fed with sour water. Some people are so weak that they will die in there within a few days.
And there are only two kinds of people who can be put in prison.
Either they were really vicious, or they were really holding on to their grievances. How full of resentment these people had when they died.
Therefore, places like Dalao are mostly far away from the city center.
For example, the prison cells in L City are built at the foot of Beimang Mountain, far away from the city.
Xu Tong was not far from Tianlao at this moment. When he looked at Qimen with his Life Eye, he saw a thick black cloud surrounding Tianlao shrouding the sky.
Even the aura of the City God has never been able to cover this place.
"I see. No wonder I entrusted the land to help me find the Moda Cult, but there has been no news."
Thinking about it, even if it is land, I don't want to get close to a place like Tianlao. I have too much resentment. If I get close accidentally, I will damage my Taoism.
Leader Modu is hiding in this place to practice, so it is no wonder that he is not afraid of others finding out his whereabouts.
Thinking of this, Xu Tong looked around to make sure no one noticed him, then he quietly groped under the high wall of the prison.
This high wall is almost at the same level as the city wall, at a vertical angle, and there are many invisible nails on the wall.
There are secret sentries and guards patrolling above. Once a situation is discovered, the alarm bell will be sounded at any time. It only takes a stick of incense to have the garrison outside the city rush over and surround the place.
However, this kind of defense can only guard against those second-rate masters in the world.
If you are a first-rate master, it will be effortless to go up. It is not even an exaggeration. If you meet a great master, these are just decorations and useless.
I saw Xu Tong tiptoeing, and he jumped up to the high wall of the cell lightly.
Even a group of guards walked past Xu Tong's nose and did not notice Xu Tong standing in the shadows.
After walking along the high wall, the air began to become pungent and turbid.
Xu Tong originally wanted to use his Life Eye Qimen, but when his Life Eye opened, his eyes were filled with blood-red words of injustice.
For a moment, I felt my eyes were burning, as if I had been stung by the wind. I immediately closed my eyes and closed the Life Eye Qimen, not daring to look around easily.
The weight of resentment here is far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
I'm afraid even the Heavenly Prison in the Capital of Gods doesn't have such great resentment.
What Xu Tong didn't know was that this prison had been built since the Sui Dynasty.
And Youzhou has been a place of conquest since ancient times, and some bandits have appeared in the past. In order to capture the bandits, it is common for officers and soldiers to even seize good people and take merit.
Over time, the resentment here has become unfathomable. An eminent monk once came here to chant sutras for ten days, hoping to relieve the resentment here.
In the end, he was exhausted. Before he died, he ordered his disciples to incinerate his bones and scatter his ashes in the prison. This way, the resentment in the prison would not be harmful to people's lives.
But even so, the guards in the Tianlao will change shifts every three days, and the prison guards will often quit their jobs within five years and dare not continue to work.
Therefore, there are often many rumors in this prison.
The Life Eye Qimen was useless, Xu Tong could only continue to walk down and watch. As soon as he entered the cell, he heard a sound of footsteps heading this way.
"Zhang Tou, my daughter is getting married tomorrow, you must come!"
"Old Sun, I know that you have been suffering for most of your life, looking forward to the day when your daughter gets married, but I really can't leave tomorrow. You don't know that lately, the higher-ups are watching closely, especially the four who set fire to the food. , there can be no mistakes at all.”
"But Zhang Tou, if you hadn't taken the knife from the bandits for me three years ago, my life would have been lost. I have been hiding a mouthful of daughter's red for twenty years. If you didn't come, I..."
"Zhang Tou, this is a big deal. I will work here for you tomorrow. You can go and eat without worry. How can you not worry about me doing things!"
"Yes, Lao Sun is about to retire after finishing his daughter's marriage. It will not be easy for your two brothers to meet again."
Several people gathered around Zhang Laotou to intercede on Lao Sun's behalf.
Zhang Laotou is not bad looking, with a thin face, sharp edges, thick eyebrows and big eyes, which makes him look upright.
There have been troubles in the prison from time to time in the past two years, but thanks to cell leader Zhang, there have been no troubles.
Therefore, seeing Zhang Laotou not speaking, everyone did not dare to speak any more.
After a moment, the prison chief sighed:
"Hey, Old Sun, it's not that my brother doesn't want to give you face. This food-burning case is extraordinary. Those four people are ruthless characters despite their delicate appearance.
The dozens of officers and soldiers you want to guard the warehouse, the four of them fought out from inside without even being injured. They must be top-notch masters in the world.
At this moment, the garrison outside Yuyang City is clamoring for food. These four people have not been tried yet, and their backgrounds are not ordinary.
If something goes wrong with one of the four of them, our brothers' heads may not be saved. Don't forget how the warehouse manager died in the cell yesterday. "
When prison head Zhang said this, the hearts of several prison guards, including Lao Sun, suddenly tightened.
The warehouse manager Zhang Laotou mentioned was Sicheng of the Cangbu Department. Although he was a big-time official, he was also a fat man.
As a result, after the Beicang fire, he was thrown into prison by the governor. It is said that this man was somewhat related to the governor.
When he came in, they entertained him with good wine and meat. The other party also said that in this case, he would be dismissed from office at most, and he would be released after a few days in jail.
As a result, last night, the governor sent someone to bring wine, and Sicheng died within a quarter of an hour after drinking it.
When everyone thought about this, they couldn't help but feel chilled all over the more they thought about it. They couldn't guess what these big shots were thinking.
"Old Sun, I don't dare to joke with the lives of my brothers and my family at this time. I'm sorry. This is my share of the money for my children. Don't make it difficult for us brothers, we are all hard-working people."
Zhang Laotou took out the two taels of broken silver he had prepared from his arms and placed it in Lao Sun's hand.
Without waiting for Lao Sun to give in, Zhang LaoTou straightened up and said, "Don't refuse. If your family hadn't taken me in three years ago, I would have starved to death on the streets."
After saying that, Zhang Laotou's expression became serious: "It will be the second watch soon. Please don't gather here. I don't need to tell you what to do."
"promise!"
Not daring to talk nonsense, everyone picked up the lanterns in their hands and began to disperse and patrol the prison.
"Hey, when will this hard life end?"
A prison guard walked forward carrying a lantern. Thinking of Zhang Prisoner's words, he was filled with sighs.
I thought that guarding the prison was a good job. During the holidays, when relatives came to visit the prison, they had to show some filial piety.
Who would have thought that this prison had bad feng shui, and few of the people who were imprisoned had families or homes.
It's either a damn bandit or a poor refugee. Even if there is a real fat sheep, it won't be his turn to eat.
Just like this, and having to take such risks, men are really afraid of getting into the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man.
Just as the prison guard was sighing in his heart, he suddenly felt a wisp of breeze blowing from his back, and he heard next to his ears: "Think of it, let me help you!"
"boom!!"
Before the prison guard could recover, a huge pain hit the back of his head, his vision suddenly went dark, and the lantern in his hand was about to fall to the ground.
Fortunately, a hand came from behind to hold the lantern lightly, otherwise the lantern would have burned down in a moment if it fell to the ground.
The lantern was lifted up, and Xu Tong's face was revealed in the light. He gently put the lantern aside, and a rustling sound came from the darkness.
But a moment later, Xu Tong, who had already changed out of the prison clothes and adjusted his clothes, held one hand on the lantern pole. He adjusted his clothes. Not to mention, they fit him quite well, but his appearance had now become exactly the same as that of the prison guards. .
"Cough cough~open your head~cough~open your head~"
After changing his clothes, Xu Tong cleared his throat and tried to imitate the prison guard's voice a few times. After confirming that there was no problem, he walked into the cell with a lantern...
Today is a bit short. It was originally two chapters combined. However, I was not satisfied with the result. I deleted a large part and revised and rewritten it. After this foreshadowing, the last chapter of Yuyang City should come.
