Chapter 242: Immortal Prison Rebellion (4)
With the opening of the last barbed door, what came into view was also pitch black, and it seemed that the source of the entire Immortal Hell Great Array had been cut off.
Yun Xuan quickly put the unlocked wire into his trouser pocket, then shook the string of discarded keys found in the office in his hand, and said coldly in Wang Lin's voice: "Don't be nervous, it's me, Wang Lin!"
The four guards outside the door heard Wang Lin's voice, so they let go of a little hostility, but they still pressed the long sword in their hands and waited for it. I saw that the guard who was the leader said in a puzzled tone, "Is it Lord Wang Lin? Don't you know that except for Lord Tu Liao, no one has the right to talk directly to you! And even if you have any corpses that you want us to deal with urgently, you yourself have to retreat to the second door, why did you come out today?"
"I'm! Pan Humpback, you are so verbose......" Yun Xuan shouted in a voice similar to Wang Lin, Pan Humpback's nickname was that he had heard Paint call this guard when he came in that day, and he remembered it at that time.
Yun Xuan snorted coldly and said, "You bastard! Do you know that there is already a mess inside! Lord Shan Tinglong has given me a secret letter......" As he spoke, Yun Xuan shook the temporarily sealed case file in his hand and continued: "You want me to send it to the nearest Xianmen garrison immediately and ask for reinforcements! I don't know how tight the time is, I actually take a weapon at Lao Tzu, do it!"
Hearing the other party shout his name, the guard's vigilance lowered a little more, he leaned a little closer, carefully identified the similar thing in Yun Xuan's hand with the lowest vision in the dark, and asked suspiciously: "I'm really sorry, misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding, Lord Wang Lin, please forgive us for our duty...... However, our brethren at the outer wall have already built an emergency bridge from above, and many of our brethren have rushed in, so can they not be suppressed?"
Yun Xuan snorted angrily, imagining the depressed mood of the group of jailers inside, and roared in a low voice: "The group of dogs and cubs inside are all reversed, dry, bloody and bloody, many of our brothers have fallen, the scene is difficult to clean up, otherwise, Lord Shan Tinglong would not have sent me and Huo Lin to ask for help! Alas, after all, it is a family matter, and it is best to deal with it yourself...... As he spoke, Yun Xuan glanced at the city walls on both sides above from the corner of his eyes, only to see a few guards standing sparsely on the city wall, it seemed that Pan was not lying, and the outer city wall had already sent a large number of people to suppress the riot.
Even at this time, the killing shouts inside can still be clearly heard, these sounds alone are enough to imagine the terrible world inside, Pan Humpback couldn't help but ask again: "Lord Wang Lin, there has been a lot of trouble inside, why haven't you restored the Immortal Prison Array, could it be the high-level ......?"
"Shut up! There are some things we can't criticize!" Yun Xuan said righteously.
"Yes, yes, yes, my lord!" Pan was humbly taught, and vaguely saw that Yun Xuan seemed to be wearing a wide coat, and he couldn't help but look like he wanted to speak again.
Yun Xuan immediately shouted: "Look at what! Lao Tzu hung up the color inside, the time is urgent, you have to set off if you don't rush to deal with it, you can only put on something to cover it first!"
Immediately afterwards, he said angrily: "Okay, don't talk nonsense with you, the situation is urgent, our task is urgent!
Pan hunchback hurriedly whistled and signaled to the guards on the city walls on both sides to let go, and several other guards immediately bowed their heads respectfully, and did not forget to say: "Your Excellency, please go slowly......"
So, Yun Xuan snorted heavily, and led Lu Tianming, who had been silent from beginning to end, from this narrow and long passage, to leave quickly.
It wasn't until after walking out of the road that Lu Tianming couldn't help but ask in an inaudible voice: "I didn't expect it to be so easy, I don't even need to ...... things like passes."
Yun Xuan said lightly: "I have checked a lot of information, the internal defense system and the external defense system of this Yunzhou Immortal Prison rarely communicate, especially those few guard doors full of barbs, only Tu Liao and Shan Tinglong, the two highest levels of the internal and external systems, have the key, I can swagger out, it can only prove that I have the key in Shan Tinglong's hand, this is the best pass!"
"Hey, then according to what you say, aren't those doors impossible to open easily?" Lu Tianming asked in a low voice, but he was muttering in his heart: Why is this guy still having time to consult the information when he is also a prisoner......
"Yes, fortunately, my initiation teacher has trained me in this area. Yun Xuan replied calmly.
ββ¦β¦β
Lu Tianming was speechless for a moment, Your Excellency is really special for a monk like this, I have lived so long, and I really have never heard that the Temple of the Apocalypse actually provides lock-picking training.
Yun Xuan didn't forget to add: "However, we have to go quickly, after all, I can only bluff them for a while, and when they calm down and think about it, they will definitely find out the problem." β
"Hmmm......"
ββ¦β¦β
Finally walked through this long passage, in the direction of the outer city tower, another team of guards stationed on the city wall stopped them, fortunately, the earth-shattering killing sound continued to come from behind, even the most dull people know that at this moment the Yunzhou Immortal Prison has undergone major changes, in this extraordinary period, people will always have extraordinary thoughts, for the continuation of extraordinary events, it is easier than usual to accept, especially the other party is still under the banner of righteousness that is beneficial to themselves. So, Yun Xuan calmly shouted again, depicting the situation inside as extremely urgent and severe, how important the task they were carrying at this moment, and the person who stood in their way was likely to become a sinner for the ages. After a series of performances, it was successfully released again, after all, the sentry post in front had already given a signal for release, and the name Wang Lin was also well-known in the external defense system.
However, the captain on duty still did not forget to tell both sides: "Be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, if something really happens, we must remember that the signal for release is coming from Pan's hunchback." β
Watching the city gate slowly open in the sound of "babbling", and the narrow suspension bridge slowly lowered, Lu Tianming's heart almost jumped out, the long-awaited freedom finally came to his eyes, and all the humiliations he received yesterday quickly passed in front of him, if he could really get out of here, then this gray memory would forever become a thing of the past. At this moment, even with Yun Xuan's concentration, his pupils had dilated a lot, after all, in the past year or so, he had completely lost his freedom, which was still unprecedented in his life......
But just as the freedom was getting closer and closer to the two, a deafening shout suddenly came from the distance, and then there were bursts of cheers from the city tower, and a strong light suddenly flashed from the city tower, and the Immortal Hell Array was finally restored! But this also meant that the Immortal Hell Rebellion was about to end!
Yun Xuan half-narrowed his eyes, adapting to the sudden light as soon as possible, and at the same time turned his head to look at Lu Tianming, and clearly saw a strong unease and fear surging in the other party's eyes, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Calm down, let's move forward immediately...... Slow down...... Don't let the jailers behind you see anything, it seems that they can't wait until this damn drawbridge is completely down, don't look behind......"
At the same time, when the first round of cheers on the city tower ended, someone immediately noticed these two colleagues with a special mission, especially Yun Xuan!
"Hey, look, one of them is wearing a robe!"
"Oh, that seems to be Lord Wang Lin, I heard that there is a colorful ...... hanging in it"
"This ...... Look, that Lord Wang Lin seems to have something around his neck...... Frankly, this thing is kind of like a shackle. β
"Hehe, that's what only prisoners need. β
"Wait, could it be that there is a prisoner pretending to be Lord Wang Lin and taking advantage of the chaos to get out!"
ββ¦β¦β
"Hey, brethren, you see that the other guy doesn't seem to be dressed very well!"
"That'...... Why don't you intercept them first?"
"But, that 'Wang Lin' lord yelled that they had an urgent order on their ......"
In a burst of discussions, the guards left behind on the city tower hurriedly took off their strong bows, but no one dared to take the arrow easily, after all, the other party may really be an envoy sent by Lord Shan Tinglong, if this is the case, then Wang Lin is also an important member of the internal defense system, in case he is injured, it is not easy to explain. But if it was really the prisoners who sneaked away in the name of Shan Tinglong and Wang Lin, then the responsibility of their group would be great......
Seeing that the drawbridge was about to be completely lowered, the jailers were still hesitating, and Yun Xuan and Lu Tianming had already walked more than half of the drawbridge at this moment, and at this moment, a male voice suddenly roared: "Intercept them immediately!
Almost at the same time, as soon as the guards on the city tower heard Tu Liao's voice, they immediately bent their bows and arrows, and with a "whoosh" sound, a chaotic arrow shot three feet in front of Yun Xuan.
The squad leader remembered Tu Liao's angry appearance, and immediately shouted at Yun Xuan and them angrily: "Lord Wang Lin, stop, stop immediately, I just warned you." β
At this moment, Yun Xuan's mind immediately thought of whether to imitate Tu Liao's voice at this last moment, making the jailers confused and wanting to fish in troubled waters again, but the suspension bridge in front of him had stopped and began to slowly recover, and even the last ray of life was gone. Yun Xuan's eyes were dim for a while, in fact, from hearing Tu Liao's shouts to the sound of horses' hooves from far and near behind him now, he knew that this prison escape operation was doomed.
He turned his head to look at Lu Tianming, and found that the other party's face was like ashes, and his pale lips trembled slightly, obviously unable to bear it for a while, and he couldn't even say half a sentence. He sighed and said in a deep voice: "Lu Daoyou, go back, the action failed......" As he spoke, he looked down at the moat and the other bank, forced a smile, and said: "But it's very close to success, probably only a hundred steps away, ha!"
After speaking, Yun Xuan took off the large coat and turned around proudly, his face was still calm, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, not at all like a felons who had just failed to escape from prison.
At this moment, Tu Liao had already galloped to the city gate, and seeing that Yun Xuan had been intercepted, he breathed a sigh of relief, dismounted and said with a smile: "Monk Xia Qi, if I hadn't come back in time, I would have really hidden it from you." β
For this scene, people who don't know still think that he is playing a rather entertaining game with Yun Xuan, but coincidentally, the current situation is a critical moment in the game.
Yun Xuan tugged at the corners of his mouth, bumped Lu Tianming with his shoulder, slowly walked back, and said, "Tu Liao Daoyou, I'm really curious about how you feel so fast, it stands to reason that you should still be helping inside at this moment!"
Tu Liao's fat face smiled kindly, and said: "I entered the inner city wall from the emergency bridge, and after controlling the defensive formation of the encirclement, I immediately checked the only passage to the outside, but I didn't expect it to be broken through, hehe, so I immediately chased it out." β
"I see," Yun Xuan couldn't help but tuck the corners of his mouth again, "It's a pity......"
Tu Liao stared at Lu Tianming behind Yun Xuan, and his smile was faintly weird, only to see that the latter's footsteps were slightly staggering, and he was already obviously a big step behind Yun Xuan, and from time to time he looked at the moat under his feet with a flickering expression.
"What is the name of this prisoner, and if you can walk with Brother Xia Qi, you must be a great person...... Why does it look like you can't accept defeat at all now!" Tu Liao's smile became even kinder, and he even narrowed his eyes with a smile.
Yun Xuan's heart was cold, he turned around slowly, walked back to the dejected Lu Tianming with steady steps, and said in a low voice: "Cheer up, as long as you live, there will be hope." β
Lu Tianming nodded heavily, Yun Xuan smiled kindly, and said in a tone that didn't look like a loser at all, "Let's go." β
When the drawbridge was halfway recycled, it stopped, and Tu Liao waited for Yun Xuan and Lu Tianming to walk back to his side with a smile that greeted the hero's triumphant return. Without the slightest warning, his fist had been swung out heavily, hitting Lu Tianming's jaw, and in the sound of bones cracking, Lu Tianming's whole person was pulled off the ground and flew up, and he fell back to the suspension bridge with a "bang", because of the tilt of the suspension bridge, he immediately slowly slid back in a muffled sound of pain.
Tu Liao kicked under his feet, his front body was close to the ground, it was hard to imagine how a big fat man could have such a fast speed, and in an instant, he had come to Lu Tianming again, and with a heavy step on his right foot, Lu Tianming's entire right hand was immediately trampled into a blur of flesh and blood, and his muffled snort suddenly turned into an extremely painful scream.
Yun Xuan said coldly: "Tu Liao Daoyou, I am the mastermind of this prison escape, he was only instigated by me. β
Hearing Yun Xuan explain a fact in a rare cold tone, Tu Liao stepped on Lu Tianming's other hand and paused slightly, and immediately changed it to a flying kick, kicking Lu Tianming off the suspension bridge and falling straight towards the moat.
Yun Xuan's eyes couldn't help flashing with anger, his body leaned forward, and the whole person shot forward, originally planning to strike a fatal blow to Tu Liao if necessary, holding him hostage, and turning the tables, but he didn't expect Tu Liao to take the lead, and now he is forcing himself to use the only little bit of cultivation stored in his body to save Lu Tianming.
And Tu Liao seemed to have expected Yun Xuan's movements, his fat body twisted to the left, just blocking Yun Xuan's forward route, just a beat slower, only to hear a "pop", the sound of falling into the water has already sounded, the sawfish who have been waiting for a long time under the water immediately surged up, and the blood mist instantly spread under the water, and the scene was extremely cruel!
In the cloud, Yun Xuan happened to see Lu Tianming's pained expression, and the strings of bubbles spit out of his mouth were quickly covered by the sawfish, and the futile struggle stopped with the last trace of life breath disappearing.
Yun Xuan's breathing became short, and in a colder tone, he said, "Daoyou Tu Liao, didn't I tell you that I was the mastermind?"
"I know!" Tu Liao's mood fluctuated little, and his voice was still very steady, "It is precisely because of you Xia Qi Daoyou who said this sentence that I stopped torturing him, this is already a favor! β
Yun Xuan coldly turned his head to look at the city tower, only to see that the guards on the city wall were watching the performance of the sawfish during the meal, and he said coldly: "Then why don't you do it to me." β
Tu Liao smiled humbly and said, "Daoyou Xia Qi, you are a big man, if anything goes wrong, I will definitely have a lot of trouble in the future, so how dare I make a mistake to you easily?"
Yun Xuan watched the churning river slowly calm down, but his mood was difficult to match, there were too many unknowns in Lu Tianming's body, strictly speaking, he could only be said to be a temporary partner, but between life and death, he followed himself without hesitation to embark on this dangerous road of no return, although it was not a loyal dedication, but there was no major negligence, and even when he was in danger several times in the square, he also helped himself a few times behind him, which can be regarded as fulfilling the duty of a partner, but now he did not bring him the freedom he dreamed of, only brought him an extremely painful deathγ
Yun Xuan closed his eyes heavily, and after a long while, he slowly opened up, and his voice had returned to calm and cold: "Tu Liao Daoyou, how do you know that there is some trouble, it is impossible to avoid it at all?"
Although it was the height of summer, the wind from the Chihua Mountains did not bring any warmth.
