Chapter 44: The Mine

Li Yi ascended to a high place and was able to overlook the entire island from the top of the cave with its back to the Holy Tower. To get out of here, you naturally have to see the terrain here.

The locust followed out panting, he didn't expect Li Yi's physical strength to surpass his own, and he climbed all the way up, without taking a breath, which shocked him.

"Have you ever practiced?" The locust looked Li Yilai up and down, and threw the pickaxe in his hand aside.

Li Yi looked away thoughtfully, his back to the locust, his voice hoarse and low.

"No, locust, you climbed up from a rocky mountain path, but you don't trust the route I chose, which, though it looks steep, is in fact a narrow path for digging a mine, and it is not a difficult walk."

"Fuck the narrow way." The locust knew what Li Yi was talking about, so he came out of the prison in the valley and went all the way up the steep rocky mountain with his back, there was a narrow road that twisted and turned, but it was close to the iron like a hard mountain, and from time to time it shook off the rock slag, so that the locust did not dare to approach at all.

"I'd rather work hard." The locust patted the dust and said nothing.

Li Yi smiled and didn't speak. He knew what the locust was going to say in the second half of the sentence, and of course there was no need to say it so bluntly, because he knew that the locust couldn't trust himself at all, let alone put his life in his own hands.

"What the are you going on?" The locust clapped his hands, his strength had recovered, and he followed Li Yi to the highest part of the mine, which was rich in coal and iron, and of course, rare tin ore.

"Do you have to bring Lao Tzu to this kind of hellish place?" The locust frowned. "If you can't make sense, hehe."

The locusts glanced left and right, and even the jailers would not come here, and the usual prisoners generally worked in the mines of the saddle, and it was indeed rare to dare to rush to the top of the mountain at the risk of violating the law.

"Even if you can't go back, no one will care, Li Yi, there's no one here, it's not too simple to pinch a bug to death." The locusts lay their hands on top of each other and pinch the knuckles of their fingers with a creaking sound.

"Locust, do you want to get out of here?" Li Yi remained silent and opened the topic.

"Nonsense." The locust frowned. "Who the would want to stay in a place like this."

"You should have noticed it when you came in, locust, this prison is different from other prisons, I also found it when I brought in the prisoners, I don't know if you noticed."

Li Yi didn't say a word, and called the locust by its name, which made him a little unhappy, but there was nothing he could do.

"You mean...... Those fires at the door? The locust's brain turned very fast, which made Li Yi a little unexpected.

"It seems that you don't lack brains, locust, you are smarter than many people think." Li Yi's words sounded like a compliment, but for some reason, the locust only felt ill-intentioned.

"The prison is a minaret-shaped structure that runs through the island, and as far as I know, it started out as a fortress rather than a prison. In terms of the frontal police force, this is not even a police force. I suspect it's the military that's guarding this place. ”

The locust didn't say anything, he listened to Li Yi's words quietly, but he was already a little surprised in his heart. When he was in prison, he was already vaguely aware that the origin of this prison was not small, and some of the firepower of the police guarding it was even the heavy firepower of the mainstream army, and even armored vehicles.

"Since the 19th century, after the passage of the constitution, the original noble fortress

Most of them have been renovated, museums or private residences, but this 'holy tower' built on islands and mountains has become a natural prison. To get out of here, at least three conditions must be met. ”

"You know a lot." The locust stared at Li Yi for a long time, and muttered in his heart, if this kid hadn't made plans earlier, how could he behave so calmly? How could such a careful consideration be made in such a short period of time?

"It's nothing, ironically, most of the information about the Holy Tower is in the library here." Li Yi smiled and looked at the locust. "At noon, I was looking at the design drawings, and the one you took, Locust, was the history of the renovation of the Holy Tower. These details are not very easy to find in the books outside, locusts, don't you think it's very interesting? ”

"It's like the builders of the prison want to give us clues to escape?" Li Yi opened his hand and looked at the locust with a smile.

Hearing this, the locust only felt that the flesh on his heart was skipping, as if everything was being calculated, but he felt that something was wrong.

"You said that three conditions were met. Hum. The locust sat on the ground and raised one eye to glance at Li Yi. I'm not interested in these laces, boy, you just say what you have to meet. ”

"First, this fortress is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is basically impossible to break through the front, not to mention the current guard's firepower, breaking out is death, so it is only possible to escape by being familiar with the structure of the entire prison and using these secret passages from the mountains around the prison."

"There is such a secret passage?" The locust sat down cross-legged.

Li Yi also sat down. "There are twenty-six side doors, and if you want to get through, you have to find exactly where the secret passages are."

"Where?" The locust asked impatiently.

Li Yi didn't speak, looked at the locust, only smiled and shook his head.

"Locusts, there are some words that are only valuable when they are hidden in the stomach. That's why I'm telling you, we have to work together to get out of here. ”

The locust gritted its teeth, but Li Yi couldn't refute what he said, because he knew that a person's value must be reflected in the unknown, and if he understood all the information of a person, then the person's value would no longer exist.

"But how do I know if you really have this information?" The locust did not give up, even if it was only a little bit, he also wanted to pry something useful out of Li Yi's mouth.

"It's called trust, locust." Li Yi shook his head. "We both have bets on each other, and that's my hole card and the only chip I have to get out of. Locusts, do you know what happens when you are found out in this fortress? ”

The locust knows without thinking about it, this is an iron law in the dark world, and it is no exception in Southeast Asia, and those who break the rules, of course, wait for him with the consequences that are worse than death.

"Okay, you go on, what else." Locusts decided to listen to Li Yi's plan first.

"Look." Li Yi stood up, leaned against the rocky mountain wall, and looked condescendingly, the shallow sunlight in the distance of the coastline shone like a half-baked egg.

The locust covered his eyes, the sunlight was a little dazzling to him. "See what?"

"I'm bringing you here, locust, not for you to experience the dying life of a condemned prisoner." Li Yi stepped on the first step and looked down, the mountain range behind the Holy Tower Prison was not high, but the lonely cliffs were mostly rocks and streams, which looked very steep, so go down the top of the mountain

Lookingly, the inevitable feeling of complete dizziness came up.

"Surrounded by mountains on three sides, there are almost no paths to follow, even after passing through the mountains and forests, the port that is finally guarded near the shore is guarded by heavy firepower, which can be said to be the most perfect prison."

The locust looked at Li Yi's line of sight, and as he said, behind the Santa Prison was leaning on three jungle-covered peaks, and the road that cut through the peaks stretched to the near port was guarded by a company of troops.

"It's not like a prison, it's a troop." Locusts have naturally seen troops, and it is not surprising for drug lords to mediate with the forces of Southeast Asian countries from time to time, but it is also a strange story to say that they are guarding a prison.

"So the second one, a head-on breakout, it's not wise. So we're going to get out of here. Li Yi stood on a high place, pointing and pointing, as if pointing to a map of power, waving his arms in the air.

"This is ......" The locust looked down and saw the west side of Santa Prison, the only slightly flat jungle area, where the dark air masses were tumbling, and the perennial foggy forest with extremely low visibility looked inaccessible.

"Miasma." Li Yi said lightly.

"Miasma?" The locust just thought the guy was crazy, and he waved his hand. "What are you kidding, this place where birds don't, once you enter this hellish place, you won't be able to come out alive."

"Looks like you do." Li Yi turned around with a smile, this forest full of miasma is the only "loophole" in the entire Santa Prison, and it is also the only hope to break through from here.

"Miasma, it's not really a place of death, locusts, I don't plan to be conscious of death, how can I enjoy wealth?" Li Yi's words were a bit playful, which made the locust hesitate for a while.

"And the third?" Eventually, the locusts compromised.

There is no way for him to succumb to such a place, but where there is a glimmer of possibility to break through the cage, death is not something that locusts fear. What's more, he didn't believe that Li Yi would be a fool who took the initiative to choose death, no matter what tricks this guy played, the locust felt that it was worth trying.

"Good. Locust, you're probably starting to understand the value of trust. Li Yi continued in that annoying tone. The third is your mission, locust. ”

"Lao Tzu?" The locusts are unknown. "What do you want Lao Tzu to do?"

"Locust, to be honest, I have a way to solve the first and second ones, but this third one is really the biggest obstacle for us to get out of this hellish place right now." Li Yi looked into the distance, his eyes passed through the swampy forest filled with miasma, and reached the other side of the coastline.

"Locust, I believe that you are in this place, and you are not really at a loss, just eat and wait for the embroidery girl to die." Suddenly, Li Yi turned his words, and a sharp light appeared in his eyes, and he saw that the locusts were a little hairy.

"What do you mean?" The locusts clenched their fists.

"Since we want to flee together, information always has to be exchanged, locust, I told you what I knew, and now it's your turn."

"I can ......" Locust wanted to prevaricate, but Li Yi's eyes seemed to have seen everything, and he also understood that it was meaningless to cover up more between the two.

"You kid." The locust smiled helplessly, looked at Li Yi, and was about to arrange and explain his plan, when he suddenly heard a commotion.

Who?

Li Yi and the locust were aware of something nearby at the same time, and quickly took action.
