Chapter 435: Turning Point (Part II)
Everything in this world today, including politics and law, is the result of balance.
In fact, things in this world, before they can really go to the extreme, are mostly balanced.
Equilibrium is not an outcome, but an inevitable process that looks like an outcome.
Perhaps, it can be called, a phased achievement.
In such a country, with such a phased achievement, criminals will not have a chance to emerge if they do not live in hell.
Ling Qi mixed with such a group of people, whimsically relying on dozens of people, he could compete with the military garrison of the entire township!
In the end, of the more than 100 prisoners in the bottom prison, only a few dozen of them were willing to take risks, and almost half of them refused to get on the thief ship.
After knowing the background of the world, Ling Qi no longer had hope for this prison escape, but the old man still looked full of confidence!
After about a dozen breaths, the large iron door between the second and third floors was slowly opened.
The jailer came a little slowly, so slow that even the old man almost began to suspect that there was a terrible warden above, and when this kind of thing happened, he didn't want to make a crime, and he could resolutely stick to it and make the wisest choice, then they would simply wash and sleep, and there was no need to continue the riot.
Just one door can blind them, and no one can smash a three-inch-thick iron door with their bare hands, at least no one here can do it.
It's not that every prison is the same as here, and between every floor, there are such tight guards that make people speechless.
However, it is not surprising that this is a township prison and a death row inmate.
In the township prison, there are three levels of underground prison.
Each level of the underground prison has a regular guard force, but it is generally relatively weak, because there is no need to strengthen it.
For example, there are only five guards on the third floor, and they are generally on the second floor, with a special office area, and a few jailers on the second floor eat and live together.
In the previous incident, all three jailers died tragically, and there was only time to send a signal.
Those left on the second floor did not dare to go down to investigate when they received the signal, and reported the matter as soon as possible.
They are not worried about the prisoners rushing out, because each layer of the prison is relatively independent, the jailer goes from the upper floor to the lower floor, and will not bring the key to the door.
In this third layer, most of the prisoners are murderers who do not blink an eye, even if not every one of them is a murderer, even if they are murderers, most of them have a reason, otherwise they would have been sentenced to death, but they are indeed dangerous elements.
Except for the two meals a day, there is not even a guard in this place, which shows how guarded and disliked it is.
The door opened, and a dozen jailers poured in, all dressed in soft armor, carrying shields, and carrying machetes!
The warden really underestimated the situation, and was anxious to make amends, wanting to suppress the prisoners with all his might, of course, this is the normal situation.
However, what stunned the jailers was the hideous faces in the dark!
"Kill!"
I saw a strong man with a height of eight feet, directly holding the corpse of a jailer in one hand, and smashed towards the array, and immediately three people followed, holding a standard steel knife in their hands, and cut people when they saw them!
"Mom!"
The jailer who seemed to be armed to the teeth immediately dispersed, the scientific and technological strength of this world is not high, and it is impossible for the jailer to really wrap himself into an iron lump before entering the prison to prevent riots, so that knife passed, it was really blood splashed, and the head was like rain.
Ling Qi, who was protected by everyone in the middle, couldn't help but squint slightly.
The quality of those jailers is as imagined, not too high, but not much worse either.
In such an era, you can't expect the jailers to be all elites of a hundred battles, the real elite of the army, all stationed in important places, such as borders, such as important cities, there are also around this rural prison, but there are their own stations, the distance is about thirty pavilions, it is impossible to arrive in time, but it is also fast.
Compared with those jailers, these prisoners are a bit interesting, and their strength is very good, and they can be called "heroes in the green forest".
The more chaotic the era, the more and more criminals tend to be, children of a few years old, hungry people on the road, and old people on the road, all of which may be hidden devils.
But in times of peace and prosperity, especially in this kind of world environment, there are always two or three out of ten prisoners, who are unruly and unruly, and who are quite strong and talented, otherwise they would not be able to commit crimes, let alone be able to commit crimes.
The three prisoners, holding three steel knives, burst out with combat power, which was not much better than Ling Qi in the previous outbreak state, and even surpassed, cutting through the jailer's front like cutting tofu.
As soon as the riot was commotioned, more prisoners in the back took the opportunity to act, rushed up to grab knives and shields, and even lifted up people with clothes and smashed them out, which was a big momentum for a while.
Bang dang!
The iron gate still wanted to close, but it was resisted by a strong man in the iron tower!
"Thorn!"
The voice was a little flustered.
A few spear tips stabbed like lightning in the firelight, and the strong man had no intention of sacrificing himself, so he sneered!
The door was about to continue to close, but it was jammed by a spear.
The third floor is very dark, and the fire outside is faint, but this makes the vision blurred, like a group of evil ghosts in hell, desperately trying to climb out of the ghost gate and return to the world!
"They panicked. ”
Also hiding among the prisoners, the old man said lightly to Ling Qi, Ling Qi could hear it, there was a bit of smugness and disdain.
"Actually, they can't be blamed for this, no one could have expected that the riots would develop to such an extent in such a short period of time. ”
"Generally speaking, even if there is a prisoner riot, at most seven or eight people will riot together, and it is difficult to exceed ten people. ”
"Because prisoners are not stupid, many prisoners also have families, and no one wants to fall into such a situation, and then return to that momentary courage, leaving endless troubles, especially when there is no hope at all. ”
"Therefore, even if you routinely ask for help from nearby troops, whether it is the prison chief or the lieutenant, you probably won't pay too much attention to it. ”
"The warden must first of all suppress the riot and prevent the situation from expanding, which can be regarded as a way to make up for the mistakes. The people in the army, this is not easy to say, should not look down on this credit, and may not even be willing to dispatch, but just send troops according to orders, there is no lack of perfunctory possibilities. But now is a peaceful and prosperous era, meritorious deeds are rare, and this matter is a big trouble, but not only the prison warden is unlucky, so it is really impossible to say in that regard. ”
"Three hundred breaths is an estimate based on the fact that they attach great importance to it. ”
"Of course, let alone 300 breaths or 600 breaths, even if there are 3,000 breaths or 600 breaths, if it weren't for me, it would indeed be impossible to have such a big momentum in such a short period of time!"
The old man said, curling the corners of his lips, perhaps this last sentence was the point he wanted to express.
He quickly seemed to realize something, looked back at Ling Qi, and said with some apologies:
"Of course, if it weren't for you, even if I could convince some people, those who really have their own might not be willing to take the risk together. ”
The old man had something to say, gestured to Ling Qi slightly, and looked at the strong man of the iron tower who rushed to the front.
"See, that person has the courage of a hundred people, and he committed enough things to die ten times, but he still hasn't been killed, do you know why?"
The old man pretended to ask mysteriously, Ling Qi carefully observed, perceived, and looked for the key person in this game.
Seeing that Ling Qi didn't care about himself at all, the old man was bored with himself, pursed his lips, and replied to himself:
"That guy is about the same as you, but not as lucky as you. ”
"He is also a 'reverse seed', but he has not 'awakened'. ”
"Hehe, if the people above knew that there was your 'awakened' reverse seed below, they didn't know what to do with it. ”
"If you hadn't been violent and murderous, I'm afraid there is a good chance that you would have been forgiven for your previous sins. After all, you are only involved because of your family, although the matter is not small, but this kind of crime is no longer on the table in this era. ”
"But now, it's hard to say. ”
"The country needs the power of 'reverse seeding', but the country is most guarded against people like you. ”
"And I happen to know that you people have a strong latent force even in this country. ”
"After you get out, as long as you listen to me, I can even help you to subdue most of these prisoners who survived. ”
"When the time comes, I believe that even if you enter a new world, you will not be alone. ”
The old man knew far more than Ling Qi.
He didn't explain much, maybe the timing was wrong, maybe he thought that Ling Qi, the awakened rebel, should know more than him.
The killing continues, the iron door has been smashed open, the prisoners have been replenished, and they are like tigers, killed!
The reason why this ridiculous thing happened is because the wolf is still just a wolf, not a tiger, not a winged biao, but behind the sheep, there are large groups of hunting dogs!
By the time Ling Qi came to the second layer, it was already the hundredth breath after the old man's initial reminder, maybe a little longer, and nearly half of the time had passed.
The jailers had been completely defeated, and many prisoners went up in an organized pursuit to prevent them from closing the door above and catching turtles in urns.
Thanks to the disdain of those jailers, there were no layers of cards, so they just broke through for a while, and immediately they were unimpeded, chasing and intercepting, so that the other party was tired of running, and naturally they were unable to organize resistance.
Ling Qi followed the old man, chasing the first wave of people closely.
Although it is said that these people are for his sake, it is also the old man's ability to organize that they are twisted together.
But if, in the case of abandoning them, he can successfully escape, then I believe that one of the three of those people will still think about them and stay and wait for them.
Even if they are really important for the future.
