Chapter 196: Prison Robbery

Xiang Ji's personality Qing Ming understands, Xiang Ji is honest and honest, and treats people kindly, it is because of this that Qing Ming is worried that he will be used by others.

Seeing the look of doubt on Qing Ming's face, Xiang Ji completely told Qing Ming about his experience of knowing Gu Ji, Qing Ming didn't see anything from it, the only thing that puzzled him was why Gu Ji knew so much information about the three major prisons.

"You didn't say that I really forgot to ask her!" Xiang Ji touched his head, "She only said that as long as she has any difficulties in Wuhua Prefecture, she can find her, she calls herself a know-it-all in Wuhua Prefecture." ”

The person who can access the core secrets of the three major prisons in Wuhua Prefecture must have a certain connection with the state capital, which makes Qing Ming worried.

"Could it be a trap!" Qing Ming thought to himself in his heart, it was impossible for him to say this, looking at Xiang Ji's expression, it seemed that the woman named Gu Ji had completely won Xiang Ji's trust, and Qing Ming naturally would not question Xiang Ji face to face.

Even if he knew that there was a trap in front of him, it was impossible for Qing Ming to retreat.

If something happens to Lingxi, then Wuhuazhou will also be restless! A trace of indifference appeared in Qing Ming's heart, and the corners of his eyes flashed.

At night, the fog gradually enveloped Wuhuazhou, covering Wuhuazhou with a layer of mystery.

Countless lights floated in the mist, looming, like the stars floating in the street that day.

The hustle and bustle is still the eternal theme of the huge city of Wuhuazhou, but when midnight comes, all the sounds fall silent, the night is deeper, and the fog is thicker.

There were almost no pedestrians on the streets, except for some long-returning passers-by and unclosed shops, and the entire Wuhua Prefecture fell into a distant dream.

Where there is light in the world, there will be darkness, and people are often only willing to see the light and ignore the darkness hiding behind. And so, crime breeds, and most of the world's secrets walk in the dark places where no one pays attention to them.

In the depths of the thick fog, in that unknown dark corner, two figures flashed by, silently, even the two gnawing mice in the corner of the street did not notice, they only raised their eyes slightly, vaguely saw the two figures quickly melt into the darkness, so they "squeaked" a few times, lowered their heads and continued their meal.

The night breeze blew, the leaves on the central avenue rustled, the night deepened, and the fog thickened.

Qing Ming and Xiang Ji walked through the depths of the intricate alleys, which undoubtedly led to the sprawling complex at the end of the central avenue.

A quarter of an hour later, the two of them arrived at the outskirts of the complex, and instead of being reckless, they quietly lurked in the shadows to observe their surroundings.

At this time, the fog was filled, and the visibility was less than ten feet, and the two of them faintly saw the flickering lights in the distance, and the dull sound of iron armor colliding.

It was an armored guard patrolling.

Qing Ming and Xiang Ji glanced at each other, both understanding what they were thinking, and the two disappeared into the darkness again.

When they came to the gate of the state capital, they saw that the wall in front of them was a foot high, the top was completely shrouded in mist, the main gate was a vermilion lacquer gate, and the two copper rings inlaid on the façade were as big as the palms of two adults together, and the purple and red lanterns hanging under the beams were like the eyes of a giant beast, looking down on everything around them fiercely.

Qing Ming and the two pushed open a gap and quietly walked into the state capital.

The size of the state capital and the complexity of the architecture were beyond their imagination, and if they hadn't had the map to guide them, they would inevitably have been lost in such a vast palace complex.

They encountered several patrolling guards along the way, and were almost discovered, but fortunately, the night and fog helped them to avoid the eyes and ears of the guards.

After some tossing, they finally reached the position of the "Ghost Prison" with red dots on the parchment roll, but when they looked closely, what appeared in front of them was a pool of water, and a vague shadow stood in the middle of the pool not far away, and it took them a lot of effort to see that the blurred black shadow was actually a rockery. Other than that, there was nothing around.

"Could it be that we are in the wrong place?" Qing Ming looked at the pool in front of him, there was still a trace of mist on the water, and turned his head to look at Xiang Ji and said.

"Impossible, we came here exactly according to the instructions on the map, don't believe you!" Xiang Ji handed the eyelid scroll in his hand to Qing Ming, who glanced at it, this is indeed the location marked on the map.

"Could it be that Gu Ji gave me a fake?" Xiang Ji's face became a little ugly.

Qing Ming also faintly felt that something was wrong, if it was fake, then they were now in a very dangerous situation.

"It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go quickly!" Qing Ming was about to retreat after realizing that the form was wrong, when suddenly the pool in front of them changed.

Qing Ming was clever, pulling the halberd and hiding behind the nearest boulder.

I saw that the pool fluctuated faintly at first, and finally it fluctuated more and more, like boiling water.

A moment later, a miraculous scene occurred, the surface of the water seemed to be split into a path, and the water on both sides slowly flowed to the side, and in a short time a passage was seen emerging from under the water.

Seeing this, Qing Ming and the two of them showed a look of surprise in their hearts, but they didn't expect that there was a hidden passage under this pool, so it was possible that the location marked on the parchment scroll was correct.

When Xiang Ji saw this, his originally lonely expression was instantly replaced by excitement.

Just as the two of them were in a mood change, the water in the distance stopped fluctuating, and a staircase led up from the bottom to the edge of the pool, and surprisingly, the water on both sides stood as if they had seen a king, without the slightest hint of flooding the passage.

"My lord, tomorrow night will be the night of the full moon, and by then, great things will be done!" a voice came from below the passage.

Qing Ming and Xiang Ji didn't dare to come out, so they stayed quietly and listened with bated breath.

"This is thanks to Daochang Li, if it weren't for Daochang Li's great help, I wouldn't have been able to catch that South China Sea merman so smoothly!" heard a dull voice again.

Hearing this, Qing Ming's blood boiled all over his body, and his fists were clenched tightly, it seemed that the news that Xiang Ji heard was indeed right, and Lingxi was inside.

After a while, two figures walked out of the passage, and Qing Ming vaguely saw that one was dressed as a Taoist priest, and the other was a middle-aged man, and because of the mist, Qing Ming could not see their faces clearly.

"That guy is already half dead, and his tears must have dried up, but it's just a pity that he has that beautiful face!" the long-looking man said with a hint of playfulness.

"The merman weeping pearls are really true, with these pure pearls, I Wuhuazhou will get an incomparably rich fortune, and, as long as my martial arts are practiced, by that time, the benefits of the Taoist chief will be indispensable, hahaha......" The middle-aged man couldn't help laughing when he said this.

"Then congratulations in advance on your great cultivation and martial arts!" said the Taoist priest with a smile on his face.

"Hahaha......" The middle-aged man laughed again, thinking that he was in a very good mood at the moment.

After the two of them walked into darkness, the passage behind them disappeared into the water again, and the pool returned to calm as if nothing had happened.

The two talked as they walked, and laughter rang out from time to time, and only when the voices and footsteps of the two disappeared into the depths of the fog did Qing Ming and Xiang Ji come out from behind a boulder.
