Ruyi, who was kneeling on the side, hurriedly got up and helped Qi Xuan'er up.

"Miss, this is ...... What can I do? ”

Qi Xuan'er frowned lightly and looked at the departing crowd.

"Let's go, follow along!"

The door to the prison opened, the bonfires on both sides were extinguished, and it was dark inside.

"Who told you to put the lights out?"

Wu Youzhong reprimanded, and someone quickly lit a lantern to lead the way in front.

The group went down the first floor, and was about to go down one floor again, when suddenly a person screamed.

"Guard...... Why are the guards gone? ”

Wu Youzhong looked up at the second-floor prison door that was supposed to be manned, and saw that there was no trace of people in the corners of the surrounding walls, and even the prison door leading to the second floor below was half-open.

He hurriedly snatched the lantern from the guard's hand, pushed open the half-open door, and walked down the floor.

"Oops......!"

Wu Youzhong just stepped down, only to hear a pop of water, and the cold biting water instantly poured into his shoes.

He snapped back, and slowly approached the steps.

I saw that the water on the stone steps was floating with ice slag, and it was because of the ripples that he had just stepped on.

The guards behind him heard the movement and ran over, and the lanterns gathered one by one, and the lights became brighter and brighter, and for a moment they were reflected in the open water with some straw floating in front of them.

Wu Youzhong looked along the crimson water, looking at the pitch black place with no end in sight, and suddenly his legs and feet weakened with fright, and he knelt down.

"Oh no, no, the water is rising!" Someone said in a hurry.

Wu Youzhong reacted immediately, and hurriedly got up and said.

"You know how to water, hurry down and save people!"

When the third prince heard this, he immediately asked people to push him forward, and Qi Xuan'er and her maid Ruyi behind him also followed.

When the guards at the gate of the prison saw them coming, they hurriedly made a way to come, and the third prince saw the lake-like water surface in front of him through the light, and the stone steps faintly visible under the water surface, and looked at Wu Youzhong with cold eyes.

"Lord Wu, where did you get so much water from the death row? At this point, do you still have to play tricks with this prince? He whispered.

Wu Youzhong looked at the water that had already reached the second floor, and was immediately frightened.

Although the death row of this Linjun City is said to be from the previous dynasty and is deserted, but the things of the previous dynasty have long been incorporated into the current heavenly family, according to the law, no one can use it privately without a holy order, he originally thought that it would only take a few days anyway, who knows how the water suddenly rose this time, if there is damage, he will have to be skinned!

"Why are you stunned, Wu Youzhong!" The third prince reprimanded.

Wu Youzhong was awakened by the sound of reprimand, and only then did he react from the horror of his cranky thoughts!

"The lower official is here!" He hurriedly leaned over and said.

"What about the person this prince wants?" The third prince said in a deep voice with gloomy eyes.

Wu Youzhong suddenly looked at the guards behind him who didn't dare to go into the water.

"Go down and see if the people are still locked underneath?"

"My lord, there is ice slag on this water, I'm afraid it's ...... I'm afraid that the water of the Floating Frost River has been poured back, if it goes down now, this water prison is still three layers below, and none of us have the ability to swim so far! One of the guards said with a bitter face.

Qi Xuan'er looked at the surface of the water, and then glanced at the deed of his subordinates, although escorting civilians is guilty, but the crime is not to death, and the third prince will let her go for the sake of his father and brother's face.

But if this group of people died at her hands, with the temperament of these three princes, this matter would definitely be reported to Kyoto, and she would definitely be dead at that time!

The current plan must not let the third prince go into the water to search for people, so as to drag on the time, she can also find an opportunity to let people go out and send a letter back to Kyoto!

Qi Xuan'er thought about it in her heart and hurriedly suggested.

"It's better to ...... It's better to wait for dawn, and then go to find a few good water-based and then search, this Linjun City is Jiujiang Water City after all, maybe there is really a good water-based city, and you can go down these three floors! ”

The third prince glanced at Qi Xuan'er, and saw her innocent look of helping to find a way, as if the person under the water was not imprisoned by her!

"I won't have to wait tomorrow." As he spoke, he glanced at Xie Bin beside him, "You go and invite a few boatmen to come over ......." ”

"This ...... It's all filled with water here, and there's no place to ventilate on the third floor, and the black light blinds people into the water, and it's such a deep place, isn't it too unsafe! Qi Xuan'er said hurriedly.

The third prince smiled when he heard this.

"yes, it's not safe to go blind with a black light." Saying that, he looked at Xie Bin, "Let them carry the boat over, and remember to bring the belly by the way!" ”

Xie Bin bowed.

"Yes, my subordinates have orders!"

After speaking, Xie Bin hurriedly walked out of the cell.

Qi Xuan'er asked Ruyi on the side with some nervousness and confusion.

"What is it, is this thing capable of making people fall thirty feet into the water?"

Ruyi's face turned pale.

"The belly is the pig's belly, and after washing, it is flushed, but it can make people breathe normally under water, let alone thirty feet, even if it is fifty feet, it is no problem!"

Qi Xuan'er couldn't help but feel soft under her feet when she heard this, and she held Ruyi tightly with one hand, her face was as pale as ashes!
