Chapter 676: Goodbye Prince
In the dead of night, a team of patrolling fans in Dongchang Edict Prison had just walked by.
Suddenly, a black shadow swept over the wall like a falcon and landed firmly on the ground.
This person's movements were smooth and did not make the slightest sound, and he was obviously a master of light skills.
I saw that he didn't stop after landing on the ground, and with a slight touch of his toes on the ground, he immediately flew out of a few feet and ran into a corridor.
Then the man spun around the jailer who was dozing off the door of the dungeon like a butterfly.
Just as the man was about to secretly open the door of the dungeon, the jailer seemed to be awakened by some movement, and opened his eyes suddenly, but there was nothing in front of him.
"Huh?"
The jailer looked around suspiciously, but still didn't notice anything.
Naturally, he didn't notice that just a foot above his head, a man was climbing the stone wall with his arms outstretched.
"Am I mistaken?"
The jailer muttered to himself, and he had to go back to the dungeon door.
At this moment, there was a sudden small movement in the grass in the distance, and the uneasiness in the jailer's heart was aroused again, and he immediately pressed his waist knife to check.
However, when the jailer approached the grass where the movement was made, he found only a panicked night cat running away.
The jailer said a bad sigh and walked back to the door of the dungeon, and when he saw that the lock had not been moved, he leaned against the door again and dozed off.
On the other side of the dungeon gate, the intruder who had climbed on the stone wall had already touched in, and it was clear by the dim light that this person was Li Kuang.
"You're late......"
Just as Li Kuang was about to go inside, a low voice suddenly came from beside him, Li Kuang was shocked, and immediately reached out to hold the waist knife, but saw Xu Rui walking out of the shadows on the side with a smile.
Li Kuang breathed a sigh of relief, but frowned: "I have already investigated, there is obviously no one here, how did you hide the gas engine?" ”
Xu Rui shrugged his shoulders, obviously not intending to answer the question, just turned around and walked inside.
Li Kuang was afraid that he was not familiar with this place and would be self-defeating, so he hurriedly followed, and only when he came behind Xu Rui did he lower his voice and said, "It's really crazy, do you know that Dongchang is now on the side of King Liao?"
Once someone finds out that you sneak in, there is a chance that you will be hacked to death directly with a knife, and anyway, everything outside the edict prison will not be known.
If this scene really happens, the King of Liao will probably wake up laughing from his dreams! ”
As he was talking, Xu Rui's face suddenly changed, and he grabbed Li Kuang and pulled him into the shadow of the corner.
Almost as soon as the two of them were hidden, a sudden sound of footsteps came from the tunnel.
"How's the madman today?"
"It's enough to toss, first hit his head against the wall, and then insisted that someone wanted to harm him, a few brothers didn't even have the kung fu to take a nap, I was afraid that he would have some accidents, he was really tired, damn, he didn't give us a good life before, and now he is down like this, it's really a scourge!"
"Haha, brother, just bear with it, anyway, it seems that he doesn't have a few days to live, and when the King of Liao becomes a saint, this guy's life will come to an end."
"Hmph, when this goes, I'll invite a few brothers to drink!"
"That's a good idea!"
The two jailers walked from the other end of the tunnel and walked towards the gate of the dungeon, not noticing Xu Rui and the others who were close at hand.
Waiting for the jailer to leave, Xu Rui gently lowered his palm, looked at the direction where the two left, and frowned: "I heard that there is only one person in this dungeon......
Li Kuang sighed when he heard this: "I also received news before, I heard that the prince has gone crazy, because it has not been confirmed, so I haven't had time to tell you." ”
"Crazy?!"
The corners of Xu Rui's mouth twitched slightly, glanced at Li Kuang, said nothing, and continued to walk inside.
The dungeon is a circular structure, with only one road leading to the large cell in the middle, the opening is guarded by seven or eight guards, and there are six groups of Dongchang fans patrolling back and forth in the tunnel, and there are at least two first-class masters sitting in the twelve hours of the day.
No matter which direction you find clues, you can immediately call for the support of guards from other places, and hundreds of Dongchang fans outside the tunnel can also arrive within half a pillar of incense, which can be described as tightly guarded.
However, at this moment, directly above the central cell, the first-class master who personally guarded the central cell was lying peacefully on the table, as if he had fallen asleep soundly.
Xu Rui carefully put away a bamboo pipe, while Li Kuang stared at him and whispered in surprise: "What kind of sweat medicine are you, why did it attack so quickly and so violently?" ”
Xu Rui couldn't explain the role of ether, so he had to bypass the topic, pointed to the floor under his feet and said, "The prince should be locked up under this, right?" ”
Li Kuang looked down and nodded.
Although the edict of Dongchang is slightly different from that of Jinyiwei, they are mostly the same design, and the central dungeon generally holds the most important prisoners.
The cell is divided into two floors, the upper floor is the master guard of the cell, and the lower floor is where the prisoners are actually held.
Although there is no direct access to the lower cells from the upper cells, there is an air window-like observation opening on the floor, which allows the guards to observe the situation in the lower cells without any blind spots.
Li Kuang gently lifted a cover, and sure enough, he found the air window that observed the lower cell, which was square, but only two feet wide, and could accommodate a child of four or five years old at most.
"Someone is trying to harm me...... and they shall all be destroyed...... Someone, escort...... Someone's coming...... Someone ...... coming."
The moment the cover was lifted, Xu Rui and Li Kuang heard a murmuring sound, which was full of despair and repeated, as if an evil ghost was whispering in people's ears.
The two of them frowned, and immediately craned their necks to look down.
The whole cell was tidy, at least much better than the dirty and smelly prison, but the environment was definitely not comfortable.
The cramped cells, only about twenty square meters, were covered with some thatch, and the thick glass walls served as four walls, leaving nothing but an iron door to cover them.
It's like a monkey in a zoo in another world, where the prisoners eat, drink, and Lazar are all exposed to the eyes of a dozen guards, with no privacy at all, and the guards' gazes alone can make people crazy.
The keen Xu Rui saw the prince shrinking in the corner of the glass wall at a glance, at this time he had long lost his former grace, only to see that he was wearing a blackened white prison robe, his hair was scattered, and he was muttering some nonsense.
Compared with the last time they met, the prince seemed to have lost a lot of weight, his two eye sockets were deeply sunken, but his eyes were wide, and the occasional noise made by the jailers outside would make him tremble.
Xu Rui saw with his own eyes that because the guard scimitar fell, the prince trembled with fright, and finally a foul-smelling yellow and white thing oozed from the crotch of his pants.
The jailers were already surprised by this, pointing at the prince and scolding for a while, but they did not have the slightest intention of cleaning up for him, maybe someone would have to wait until tomorrow dawn to clean up for him.
Seeing that the prince of a dignified country had actually become like this, Li Kuang sighed for a while, and lowered his voice and said: "It seems that the prince is really crazy, even if he does know something, I'm afraid you won't be able to ask." ”
Xu Rui shook his head: "It's all here, you have to see him, it's almost time for the jailers to change shifts, the two teams of jailers have cumbersome shift change procedures, I have about half a pillar of incense time to see him." ”
Li Kuang was stunned when he heard this, and pointed to the air window and said: "Even so, you have to go around here, there are at least a dozen jailers in charge of guarding below, and there are two teams of jailers to catch up with the shift, more than 20 people, although their martial arts are not high, but it is almost impossible for you to lurk in without knowing it!" ”
Xu Rui sneered: "Who said I have to go around?" ”
"If you don't go around, then how are you going to meet Tai......?"
Li Kuanghu asked Xu Rui suspiciously, his face changed before he finished speaking, his two eyes widened, and he looked at Xu Rui in shock.
