Chapter Eighty-Five: The Craziest Wise Man

The arrival of this group of soldiers made Zheng Fei move his fingers, and there was a faint sense of foreboding in his heart.

He clenched his fists, far away, staring straight at Derrank, who was full of spring breeze.

Frank shrugged his shoulders at the warden and explained, "Remember the yellow skin that was sent just a few days ago, in a few days the royal family of England will come, he will be baptized holy, and then sent to the gallows, in order to avoid chaos during this time, the king has specially ordered me to bring the army here and station it until the end of the hanging." ”

The warden rolled his eyes and replied, "No, my people can handle it completely, and there is no need to tire you down." ”

"Just in case. Frank smiled, glanced up, saw the awe in the prisoners' eyes, and said with satisfaction, "Warden, go and prepare some food for my soldiers." ”

The warden nodded and ordered.

At this time, Zheng Fei's face froze again.

It was originally 500 against 100, but now out of thin air a well-trained army of more than 100 men, still with a musket in hand, and what is even more terrifying, they also brought eight heavy cannons of great caliber, and they are arranging fortifications, and the muzzles of the guns are facing the gate of the fortress, so that it can be said that if any prisoner dares to break out of it, it will be destroyed in an instant.

Zheng Fei was a little distracted, turned his head to look at the sunset that was about to disappear into the sky, lowered his head, and fell into panic and irritability again.

The only hope now is that well.

Back in his cell, he lay down beside a pile of dry grass, his neck was itching and scratching.

Soon after, Jims also returned, and as soon as the guard left, Jims came over urgently, and said, "What should I do, man, your plan is not working!"

Zheng Fei frowned, was silent for a while, and said, "Let me ask you about something, what is the origin of that well in the clearing?"

"When is it, you still have the heart to care about this, or think about how to escape!"

"I was thinking, now that we can only die in vain, the only way we can do it is to go through the tunnel, that well is probably connected to the tunnel in some way, I have to find a chance to go down and see where the tunnel leads. ”

"Hey, don't think about it, that well is really just a well. Jims sighed, and continued, "A few years ago there was a prisoner named Hazen or Harrison who tried to escape by jumping into a well, but he was caught in it for two minutes, and the officers punished him by pushing the mill like a donkey, and then he went mad. ”

"What happened later?" Zheng Fei was disappointed and said casually.

"It's strange that he pushed the mill for half a year, and never left it, including at night, and even leaned on it when he slept, and the officers never cared about him. But no one expected that one day he suddenly disappeared, and everyone said that God had mercy on him and took him away, I think, so. ”

Hearing this, Zheng Fei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, "Disappear?"

Jims was a little surprised by his reaction and nodded, "That's right, the disappearance of God is always unexpected. ”

Zheng Fei believed in miracles, but never in God.

The disappearance of the madman is by no means accidental, nor is it by any God's handiwork! There must be an entrance to the courtyard, and the madman in the eyes of everyone is actually the wisest man.

So, where is the entrance? Of course, it's a millstone, and there must be some unknown reason why the madman keeps watch over it.

Thinking of this, Zheng Fei exhaled a sigh of relief, smiled, lay down and looked at the roof, planning to find an opportunity to go to the grinding plate to study and study tomorrow when the wind is released.

Gradually, late at night, he did a bit of freehand fitness, and went to bed early, overusing his brain for the past two days, too tired.

The next morning, the old man came to hand out bread as usual, but the difference was that the old man's face was more imperceptibly happy.

He came to Zheng Fei, and before he could be asked, he couldn't wait to whisper, "I found Hans!"

Zheng Fei took a bite of the bread with beef, the corners of his mouth curled, and said, "Where is he now?"

"He's been trying to save you with a few guys, but I don't think it's reliable because they're hanging out with a bunch of kids who are no more than a teenager. ”

"Kids?"

"Well, the youngest looks like he's not even ten years old. ”

Zheng Fei didn't understand the reason, so he didn't think much about it, and according to the plan he thought of last night, he said, "Do you have a pen and paper?"

"I've already brought it to you!" the old man secretly took out a pen and paper and stuffed it into him.

He quickly wrote down a few lines and folded them, stuffed them back, and said with some concern: "Are you sure you can take it out? ”

"Ha, don't worry, I bought watermelons from the vegetable market this time, you know. The old man squeezed his eyes, and there was a feeling of innocence.

Zheng Fei raised his eyebrows, turned around and took out the rings and earrings from under the grass, and said, "These are all yours, which is considered a deposit." ”

The old man's eyes lit up and he hurriedly took it and put it away, and said with a smile: "Generous man, may God be with you." ”

At this moment, the guard's roar suddenly sounded in the corridor, and the frightened old man hurriedly got up and continued to distribute breakfast to the next cell.

Unexpectedly, the guards came straight to Zheng Fei, opened the door and grabbed his arm, and said viciously: "Be honest with me!"

"I've always been honest. Zheng Fei didn't know why, so he guessed that someone under Juan had leaked the news.

The warden grinned and said smugly, "I mean, be honest with me later, and take the prayers of the priest, poor man who is going to be hanged!"

Then, under the escort of the guards, Zheng Fei walked out of the gate of the fortress and stood in the open space, turned his head to look, the grinding disc was not far away, and it looked plain.

Drake, dressed in a luxurious robe, stood in front of him, his fingers pressed to the hilt of his sword, and with a malicious smile on the corner of his mouth, he stared at him for a while, and said, "How are you feeling these days? ”

Zheng Fei raised his head in ignorance, glanced at the rising sun, was a little dazzling, and sneezed.

Derak stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar and sneered, "It seems that you are doing well, obediently go to the prayers of the pastor, have a big meal in the evening, and receive a holy baptism in a few days, and you will have to say goodbye to this world." ”

"Oh~" Zheng Fei raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What is the big meal, is there a sea crab?"

The more calm he became, the more Drake felt that his majesty had been provoked, and he glared angrily at his eyes and said, "Don't act like you don't care about anything!

Hearing this, Zheng Fei couldn't help but puff up his chest and said proudly: "I have a mention, let's have a contest between warriors to see who is the real ghost who is afraid of death, do you dare to accept it?"
