Chapter 166: The Lawless

To say that the three of them have experienced a lot of absurd things, but as soon as they stepped into the country, they were arrested by the guards and put in prison, which is the most absurd one in recent times.

Their weapons were all taken away, as well as all their bags, not even Liu Shenghan's pen. This means that now they are empty, and those enchantment artifacts that were once seized have also been confiscated, which is a big deal.

But, why did Xiangji treat them like this? It was too sudden.

"This is the king's order." That's what the guards said.

The trio were even held in different cells to prevent them from coming together and talking about how to escape. As for the more detailed reason, Liu Shenghan only asked this answer:

"You failed to complete the task of the Sect Master, and you also injured the queen of the ally, what should you be guilty of?"

So Liu Shenghan inquired again, what do you say about hurting the queen? The big brother kept a straight face and didn't say a word. I'm afraid that Ge Shenguo has found some excuse to make them think that the queen is not "dead", but only "injured", and the reason for the injury is caused by Bai Ya - although this is simply out of nowhere. There must have been a messenger who had informed the incense god Qianmin before they returned to the country of Xiangji. Needless to say, it was he who borrowed the hand of the monarch and arrested them all for a reason. Who would be so fast?

In fact, even if they escaped, they didn't think about seeing the incense god. It's true that the task is not completed, and they all know it very well. After all, the body was not brought back, the relics that could be proved were not brought back, and the waist plate for the Queen Mother as a memorial was also lost. Even if the Qianmin doesn't care, the queen and the queen mother don't care, the national teacher won't let them go.

What's next?

Liu Shenghan fell into thought. According to Bai Ya and Jun Aoyan's temperament, even if they use brute force, they can come out. But where are they being held? They should not be far from themselves, but they haven't heard any movement now, indicating that they haven't made any moves yet. Also, there are so many guards here, and the slightest disturbance will be suppressed. Before making sure that the others are safe and sound, Bai Ya will not act rashly.

I can't say when someone will be sent to interrogate, so I don't plan to lock them up until death, right? When distributing food to the prisoners, the guards deliberately skipped her. It seems that according to this posture, they will be starved to death in a few days. Liu Shenghan was at a loss until late at night. At this time, another prisoner next to the prison suddenly accosted her. To tell the truth, this man was so inconspicuous that the guards who delivered the meal accidentally ignored him, or did he suddenly make a big noise to get a bowl of gruel. The porridge looked and smelled like swill, and Liu Shenghan always felt that if he drank it, he would die faster, so he didn't speak with this fellow inmate. But he really has no sense of existence, and when he nests in the corner to drink porridge, Liu Shenghan forgets about him in a blink of an eye.

"How did you get locked up?" He asked.

He is Liu Shenghan's only cellmate. She seemed to be in the far corner of the prison, leaning against the wall on the other side. On this side, there used to be a whole earthen wall separating it, but due to disrepair, a small part of the bricks and clods of earth have fallen off. Instead of rebuilding the wall, they erected three iron railings as a repair, and the railings were newer than the ones in front of them, without much rust.

The cellmate squeezed his body in front of the railing at the base of the wall and questioned Liu Shenghan. In the faint moonlight, the man looked like a sloppy and depressed man, but in prison, the prisoners were almost all the same. He still had shackles on his feet, but he didn't have them on his hands, but there were traces of strangulation, which should have been removed. He was wearing a tattered gray prison uniform, with a yellow face and thin muscles, but his eyes were slender and long, not "thief's eyebrows", but there seemed to be a strange aura hidden in it.

"The moment I walked through the gates, I was arrested." Liu Shenghan said, but he was not honest enough.

"If you want to say that, I don't believe it. But you are still wearing your own clothes, white and clean, and you don't look like you have been beaten. When you came in, you didn't have a 'killer stick', right? ”

"Killer Stick?" She thought for a moment, "Is it the beating that will frustrate people's morale after being imprisoned?" ”

"yes, you don't know."

"Nope."

"It's really weird, the treatment is good, I haven't seen this for several years." The cellmate raised his eyebrows, revealing a strange look, "You must have committed something else, don't dare to tell me!" Either you have a background! But look at your clothes...... Don't you look like a local? Where did the new goods come from? The Nine Heavens Kingdom has not been connected to the outside world for many years. How did you get here? ”

Liu Shenghan smiled, thinking that he was an interesting person and quite smart. Instead of answering the man's question, she asked him rhetorically:

"I think you're very weird, how did you end up in prison?"

"Girl, good eye." The cellmate gave a thumbs up across the railing, "I'm a person with sharp eyes and a quick mouth, and people in the rivers and lakes call clairvoyance and ears." As for me, I just knew something I shouldn't know, and before I could go out and shout, I was arrested. ”

"What kind of people's business should have such great power?"

Liu Shenghan didn't ask him what was the matter, she knew that this kind of person liked to sell guanzi the most. If you follow his words, you will be in his way. But if you do the opposite, ask him what he thinks you won't ask, and tell the truth.

"The force behind that man is the king!"

"Well, although it is reasonable, but I am afraid that there are a few people with the monarch as their direct background."

"Girl, do you know medicine? You smell of herbs, and you're heavy. ”

Liu Sheng was slightly stunned. She knew that she must have the smell of herbs in her, but she usually used different flavors to neutralize it. It's not completely devoid of any breath, but there are a few people who can smell it. This person has such a sharp nose, she didn't expect it, and she didn't expect that this person really didn't play cards according to the routine at all, and suddenly made a fork. So she nodded:

"I understand a little."

"Then you must know that dead people can also be medicated?" Hot Books

"Well, that's true."

"Me...... See them refining medicine from the dead! ”

"Although this can be said to be a crooked way, but ...... Doesn't anyone care? If there is no above standard in this line, there are many doorways. ”

"Who would dare to go against the people of the Xiangyin Sect!"

“…… Xiangyin Sect? ”

Liu Shenghan realized that this person had misunderstood. In fact, it is not that the backstage of the Xiangyin Sect is the monarch, but that the monarch is the one who listens to the command of the Xiangyin Sect. However, she did not correct it, but intended to continue listening to him.

"Xiangyin Sect uses corpses to refine medicine...... Sounds like something that can be done. But aren't you a Christian? ”

"I don't believe it." He waved his hand, "Master doesn't believe anyone!" What ghosts, ghosts, and gods are all trying to make people happy! The monarch is in cahoots with them, and somehow there are so many corpses of unknown origin that can be used. My father and mother gave them that illusion miserable, and I hated them for the rest of my life! My grandfather's grave has been dug up for them, and my aunt's girl who just died will not be spared, and they want any corpse! If it is a believer, they will fool them, and if they die, they should contribute and repay their kindness; Not the Christians, it is better to speak than to sing, and according to their method, the body and soul of the dead are sent to heaven. Bah! If you want me to say, when a man dies, he should be buried in the earth. ”

It seems that he is also a miserable person. Liu Shenghan sighed, and then asked:

"You fought against the Xiangyin Sect, and you didn't die tragically in prison, but you still lived well."

"That's the master's fate. Originally, a few years ago, they arrested me and beat me so badly that they were going to beat me to death. However, in time for the birthday of the mother of the country, the whole world celebrates, and the monarch gives amnesty to the world, so he spares us for capital crimes. I pretended to be crazy and stupid for years before I let that old thing kill me. In the past few years, he must have been too busy to take care of this group of prisoners, so that I could take a breath. ”

“…… So it was. Sheng Han's brows furrowed, "But this is nothing new, why did they put you to death?" Isn't it a bit of a fuss? ”

"Not only do they drain the last bit of value out of the dead, but they also catch them - mermaids!"

"Sharks?"

Liu Shenghan showed a look of surprise, without exaggeration. It's not that I'm unfamiliar with the word, but I'm unbelievable about it. However, in this way, the merman's vigilance against human beings is certainly not without reason.

"Originally, I guess they wanted to make the mermaids cry and tear into beads, or let them weave cloth and do white work. However, the merman left the sea, but he died quickly. The inmate shook his head and said, "So when they caught the merman, they directly skinned and deboned it, and put it all into medicine!" Refining oil with fat to make a long-lasting lamp. Eh, do you know that the people in the palace and the people of the Xiangyin Sect will mix candles made of mermaid oil with candles made of dead man's oil, do you know why? ”

"I really don't know."

"The merman oil lamp is eternal, but the pure oil lamp is very bright and dazzling. And the raw materials are limited, so they mix human oil to make the light softer, and the amount is large. Only human oil can be used, and the oil refined by any other animal and plant cannot be mixed with shark fat. ”

"I see......"

"Hey, I've said so much, and you haven't told me how the hell you got in?"

"Hmm...... It's true that I've not done anything worthy of being killed like you in the country of Xiangji, but—"

Liu Shenghan rolled his eyes, and was about to say something, when his dark vision suddenly brightened. The jailer came up to them with a lamp and struck the iron railing.

"What a noise! Quiet! Shout again, pull them all out - hmm! ”

The lights in front of him suddenly flickered strongly, and the two people in prison stayed where they were. Someone suddenly struck a knife from behind the jailer, and he immediately collapsed silently. The killer quickly lifted his body, and a third hand appeared above the lantern and caught it so that it would not shatter it on the ground and cause a fire. After a closer look, it turned out that there was a person standing next to the murderer, a woman.

Neither of them got their weapons, nor did they get their packages. It seems that this time they just relied on their pure strength, using a low-key, silent way. I don't know where their stuff is, but I have to get out of here before I can say anything else.

It all happened so fast that the spectators couldn't react. Bai Ya threw the fainted jailer aside, Jun Aoyan carried the lamp, and grabbed the iron railing with the other hand. Bai Ya clapped his hands lightly and grabbed a railing next to him. The two of them worked hard at the same time, and they broke a big hole in the cell.

Under the shocked expression of his fellow inmates, Liu Shenghan stood up and patted off the ashes on his body and walked out calmly. Before leaving, Liu Shenghan turned his head and glanced at the prisoner who couldn't keep his mouth shut.

"Don't bother." Bai Ya shouted.

Liu Shenghan curled the corners of her lips, and the light spilled out from behind her.

"But we're about to do something worth killing."
