Chapter 366: Prison
Maybe it's been too long and too long, or maybe it's never communicated with people from outside. While walking slowly in the woods, two local teenagers and an alien prisoner talked a lot, and although it didn't involve the core secrets, it was enough for Fang Wuxian to understand the customs and customs of the place.
Approaching the Holy Land, the little six suddenly asked, "Are you really from the outside world?" What does it look like outside? What sect rules? Is the head of that sect also a murderer? ”
Fang Wuxian didn't know how to answer this young man, he sighed and said, "The outside is not at all the same as you think, there are no sects there. ”
San'er suddenly realized: "There is no sect? Oh, I've heard of what emperors, what emperors, is that what is called outside? ”
Fang Wuxian smiled at San'er: "Outside isn't very good for me, but for you, maybe it should be considered heaven." ”
Xiaoliu asked, "Heaven? What is it? ”
"Stupid, I guess what Brother Fang means, it is the fairy world, the place where the gods stay." San'er knocked on Xiao Liu's head, and suddenly he was stunned, and said in disbelief: "Brother Fang, could it be that you came down from the Ascending Heaven Road?" ”
Fang Wuxian shook his head and sighed: "There is a great person who once said that if you want to know the taste of pears, you have to taste them with your own mouth. ”
Xiaoliu asked, "Pear, what is a pear?" Is it delicious? ”
"Alas, pears are fruits, and they are quite delicious, but some are particularly sour, and some are particularly sweet." Fang Wuxian didn't want to be a savior, and he didn't have the ability to be a savior, but in the face of the two teenagers, he still felt infinite emotion in his heart.
Mulberry forests and farmland have already appeared ahead, and there are many people in shabby clothes, working with primitive tools such as stone hoes and shovels, taking care of sericulture and green vegetables, which have very low yields. Seeing the three of them walking from the road, they just glanced at it blankly, and continued this fate that could never be changed.
In this space, it is difficult for slaves to survive, and for a little sweetness, they may live and die. If the words of the three of them were heard by someone who cared about them, they were likely to exchange for a good bargaining chip, so they tacitly kept silent.
The seasons don't change dramatically, and it's winter outside, but it's still green. But the varieties of mulberry trees used to raise silkworms are weird, with only sporadic leaves hanging on them. There is not much land suitable for farming, and the varieties of green vegetables are all unseen by Fang Wuxie.
Through the sericulture forests and fields, you can see the low-rise wooden and earth-made houses on the periphery. San'er quietly pointed to a one-person tall earthen house on the periphery, and whispered: "Brother Fang, that is the Xiaoliu family, and the one next to it is my former home." ”
"And what about you now?"
"I was selected to do chores in the Yaochi Holy Land last year, and my family moved to the outskirts of the Holy Land. If I can learn one and a half moves, I may be able to pass next year's disciple selection, and then I will be able to take Xiaoliu with me. Brother Fang, you promised us that you wouldn't tell Senior Brother what we said. ”
Fang Wuxian nodded silently, and after half a sound, he suddenly spoke: "You two really want to escape?" ”
Xiao Liu said helplessly: "Maybe everyone here has thought about escaping, everyone is just thinking about it, even a strong person like the master of the sect is trapped, let alone us who are weak." ”
"Life has to be earned by yourself, no matter whether you succeed or not, if you don't fight for it, how can you be worthy of living." Fang Wuxian looked at the two teenagers and said firmly, "I believe that you will definitely be able to get out of here." ”
San'er looked at Fang Wuxie and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh lightly, thinking that this person who was not too bad was about to fall into the hands of the master and senior brother, there was a lot of pity on his face. Xiao Liu secretly looked at Fang Wuxie, with doubts in his eyes, and even more ardent hope.
The rows of low-rise houses are where most of the people in this space live, except that during the day these people have to work, and this place is empty, like a dead city. Through the slave housing area, you can see the sacred place of Yaochi like a crystal palace.
The reason why it is said to be like a crystal palace is because the main building of the Yaochi Holy Land is made of jade, and when viewed from afar, it reflects the blue of the sky and the green of the surrounding trees, which is beautiful, and compared with the surrounding buildings, it is a better picture of heaven and earth.
Although the houses within the scope of the Yaochi Holy Land are not made of jade, they are also made of stones, neat and clean, and the low earthwork on the periphery is not of the same grade at all. And here you can see idlers sitting under the base of the wall basking in the sun, inhabited by the so-called aristocratic class.
San'er greeted passers-by from time to time, some of them smiled kindly, while others cast contemptuous glances. The common denominator is that after seeing Fang Wuxie's clothes that are different from ordinary people, they will show a surprised expression.
Xiaoliu is different from San'er, he is slightly thin and weak, but he is very tall. At this time, Fang Wuxie stood up, held his head high, did not squint, and went straight to the gate of the main crystal palace.
There was already a seven or eight-year-old little Taoist priest waiting at the gate, and when San'er saw the little Taoist priest, he hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Senior Brother Eighty, Senior Brother asked us to escort this person here, where should I send it?" ”
The little Taoist glanced at San'er, pinched his throat and said, "You guys are too slow, the senior brother has come back with two pillars of incense, and you have just arrived, so this Taoist master has waited for so long." ”
"Yes, yes, it's useless for us, please ask Senior Brother Eighty to do a lot, don't meet with us in general." San'er was busy making apologies, and it was not a good reparation.
The little Taoist priest waved his hand impatiently, and hummed: "Master Zhangzun let him be locked up in the Tianqi Palace, the senior brothers have homework to do, let this little six take care of it." ”
"Yes, then we'll escort it over." San'er took two steps back, and then set up Fang Wuxie, entered the Crystal Palace from the side door, and didn't dare to deviate slightly from the right all the way, and finally took Fang Wuxian to a room in the southeast corner of the Crystal Palace.
This room has a bed and a table and is very clean. The two teenagers put Fang Wuxian on the bed, and San'er whispered, "Brother Fang, you must be merciful. ”
"I can't forget." Fang Wuxian made a promise again, and San'er took Xiaoliu and went out. He had a good ear and could hear two teenagers whispering outside the door.
San'er instructed: "Little Liu, this big brother Fang seems to be a good person, you should be diligent and send some water." Also, if he is inconvenient, you have to ask, it's better than peeing your pants. ”
Xiao Liu said: "I know, aren't you here with me?" ”
San'er said: "I have to go to the front to find a job, show my face in front of the senior brother and the master, maybe I have the opportunity to get a little bit of guidance from the senior brother, and our good days will come." ”
Fang Wuxian couldn't cry or laugh when he heard it, and he was a little bitter, for these two teenagers, for all the people in this prison who were numb.
Let's say that after San'er left the Tianqi Palace, he went straight to the front, and when he met the "senior brother" wearing a Taoist uniform on the road, he would turn sideways and bow down; When he encounters a miscellaneous man of the same level as him, he will also greet him warmly, and it is a young man with a spirit.
Although there is a saying that fate is destined, some people struggle a hundred times, but none of them succeed. Some people don't have the heart to do it at all, but heaven and earth help together. But there is no shortage of people in this world who have worked hard to achieve positive results in the end, after all, opportunities are only reserved for those who are prepared.
This San'er is even a person who is always prepared.
He ran to the front hall of the Crystal Palace to find work, the purpose was to show his face in front of the senior brother or the master, in the past a thousand times there was no chance, today the opportunity came. As soon as he arrived at the front hall, he saw a teenage Taoist priest bowing down to the main hall with tea, looking around as he walked, and bowed down and said, "Senior Brother Sixty-six, what's wrong with you?" ”
Senior Brother Sixty-six put the tea tray in his hand and said hurriedly: "Senior Brother is discussing things with Shizun in the main hall, you go and send a pot of tea." My stomach hurts. ”
San'er was waiting for such an opportunity, and hurriedly said: "Senior Brother Sixty-six, don't worry, I'll send it now, and it will definitely be done." ”
The young man carefully held the tea, and felt that his steps were floating. He entered through the side door of the main hall, took a cat's step and tried not to make a sound, first washed the cup with tea, then knelt down to serve tea to the master master, and then bowed down to serve it to the senior brother, and then quietly stepped aside, waiting for the tea to be added at any time.
The Yaochi Holy Land has absolute dominion in this space, and anything and anyone is the private property of Xiaoyaozi. Therefore, although San'er stood on the side and waited for the tea, the head of the sect, Xiaoyaozi and Senior Brother Xuchen still talked normally and did not let him retreat.
Xuchen held a pig-killing knife in his hand and said suspiciously: "Master, this knife is really extraordinary. Although the man had never used a weapon back then, the disciple knew that the shape of the two knives was roughly the same. ”
"You still need to say that, the mother and son are looking for the man, and it is not unusual for their friends to have such a knife. And through his sword technique, you didn't find anything? ”
Xiaoyaozi's eyes widened slightly, and he was somewhat disdainful of the stupidity of the big apprentice, but there were not many people who could talk to him in this space, thinking about life was really lonely like snow, if he couldn't leave this cage in this life, and wanted to go further in martial arts, I was afraid that it would be a fool's dream.
Xuchen didn't know what Shizun was thinking, and still showed the lower limit of his IQ and said: "Shizun once taught his apprentices that the technique of using qi to control the sword can only be done by an innate cultivator, but he has never cultivated his strength, if we get this secret method, then ......"
Xiaoyaozi waved his hand to stop, thinking that his IQ was really hard, and he really couldn't listen to it, so let's explain it!
"It's not a matter of the secret method, but this person's Qi Knife Technique, which is similar to the rebellious recently learned knife technique, which is clearly passed on by that Su Fei. He has this style of knife, and he knows the woman's knife skills, but he says that he doesn't know the way to heaven, which is obviously a lie to us. Hmmm......"
"Are we going to be tortured?" Void Dust Road.
Xiaoyaozi pondered: "Where are you locked up in this person, let the subordinates take care of it, don't be rough." You look for an opportunity to probe again, talk about our difficulties appropriately, move them with affection, understand them with reason, look at his tone, and then we will make a decision. ”
Xuchen looked happy: "I asked people to lock him up in the Tianqi Palace, which is far away from the main hall, and it will not disturb the rest of the master." It is also quiet and clean, in order to show our sincerity. ”
Xuchen turned his head to San'er and said, "By the way, how is that person now?" Have you ever shown too much hostility? ”
San'er bowed down and said, "Back to Senior Brother's words, that person pondered all the way, even if he spoke very politely, he didn't see any hostility. Xiao Liu is guarding there, and I ask him to take proper care of it, so as to show the bearing of our Yaochi Holy Land. ”
"Well, you're doing a great job." Xiaoyaozi waved his hand at Xuchen and said, "Imprisoned there, but don't be treated as a prisoner." What we have is time, grind slowly, and sooner or later, he will take us out of this prison. ”
