Chapter 9: The Fire Lin Appears
My eyes had become accustomed to the darkness of the place, and I could faintly see the figures of the other cells, but they were all huddled in the corners, lifeless, and no one said a word.
I heard that the prison of Dali Temple is the most terrifying, I have stayed in it, every time a jailer passes by, there will always be someone unwilling to cry out for injustice, provoked a whipping. But here, it's silent and lifeless. Even if a man in black would come in and make rounds, the people in the cell would not be indifferent. There was a mood called "despair" floating throughout the cell.
I really shuddered at the danger that was all around me, and I had to be careful not to fall into the trap of the enemy and kill others.
Thinking about the time in my heart, it should be dark in the sky. Even if Liang Ci didn't understand my intention of removing the bell from the footbell and giving it to him, now that he saw that I hadn't returned home, he should have found out what happened in the downtown today, and combined with the words I brought him, he could guess the ins and outs of the matter.
It's just that I'm under the monastery now, and the monastery is filled with sandalwood, can he still track my location based on the scent of my footbells?
Two men in black came in with wooden barrels, and divided the porridge from the 'door' of the cell, and when they passed by my cell, they did not stop.
Another called out to him: "There's a new kid here." ”
The man looked back and glanced at it wistfully: "Tomorrow the Qiwang Mansion will send things over, and it will be the result, so don't 'waste' food, I'm nervous now." ”
"Yes," the man nodded, "these are useless, kill them if they deserve them, stay and rob us of our rations." "Babbling all the way through.
Qiwang Mansion sent things over? What to send? Could it be the Candle Dragon Order, are they going to exchange me and Liang Ci for the Candle Dragon Order? I am so clever to sneak into this Bodhi sect altar today, could it be that I want to 'make' it self-defeating? I was secretly worried.
There were very light footsteps approaching, and the two people in charge of distributing the meal turned their heads alertly and scolded loudly: "Who? ”
"It's me!" A black-clad 'masked' man came in and shook a token in his hand at the two of them.
"It turned out to be the Silver Dragon Envoy," one of them breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
The 'masked' man stuffed the token into his waist: "The altar owner received news that this 'woman' is good at poisoning and has a sharp weapon hidden on her body, and the altar owner has ordered me to come and search to avoid any 'chaos'." ”
The two laughed lewdly: "Search? You are now more and more valued by the altar master, and such a good errand is 'handed over' to you. Search well, search well, be careful. ”
I put the silver needle on my waist in the palm of my hand, if that person dared to do anything wrong, I would kill him with a needle, and the fish would die and the net would be broken.
The man snorted coldly: "Hmph, if you think this is a good errand, just follow me in." This 'female' Dali Temple can escape from the prison, what kind of simple person do you think. Maybe before you get closer, your life will be gone. The poison in her hand doesn't have eyes. ”
The two immediately shrunk their necks: "We don't have your skills, let's go to the 'door' to let you go." "As he spoke, he unlocked the 'door' of my prison, quickened his pace and avoided it.
The man in black glanced around, opened the prison door, and slowly approached me step by step. Preemptively, I didn't hesitate to 'shoot' out the silver needle in the palm of my hand.
The man in black was obviously on guard, and a cold light flashed from his waist, knocking all my silver needles out, and two silver needles grazed the scalps of the two guards who were looking here, and nailed them to the wall behind them, emitting a faint glow.
The two exclaimed: "Poisonous! He quickly retracted his head looking in, and with a "bang", he closed the outside prison door.
My second 'wave' of silver needles followed, and the man in black should have been unguarded, and when he heard an exclamation of "oops", he fell to the ground.
I clasped the silver needle in the palm of my hand, and cautiously tried to move forward, making up my mind that if the man in black did get hit, I would change his clothes and find a way to 'mix' out of here.
Before he could get closer, he heard the black-clothed 'masked' man on the ground whisper: "My own people." ”
I can't help but be stunned, this Bodhi Sect is repeated, repeatedly, endlessly, what kind of 'yin' conspiracy is this. Before I could react, the man on the ground had already jumped up, clicked on my 'acupoint', and said with a cruel smile: "Play with me, you are still a little tender." ”
I was so stiff and unable to move that I scolded: "Despicable and shameless! ”
The 'masked' man didn't care, and had already 'touched' my wrist: "I heard that you have poison 'medicine' everywhere, so I have to guard against it." Then he leaned down to me and whispered at the base of my ear, "I'm Huolin." ”
I'm shaken, Huolin! Not many people should know this secret, and there will be no fakes. But I had to be cautious and lowered my voice: "I don't know you. ”
The masked man laughed loudly: "Do you think I won't be able to find it?" Then he lowered his voice and said, "The Su family study has seen it." ”
It really was him!
I asked in a trembling voice, "Are you all right?" ”
"The identity of the person in charge of contacting us was revealed, and the message could not be delivered. The church is now strictly investigating the internal 'traitors', and the brothers have been scattered to various altars, and I believe that the situation of each altar will soon be investigated and eliminated one by one. Long story short, when you are ugly, you will be relieved of your defense. ”
"Get out of here!" I pretended to scold loudly, and then lowered my voice: "No, they will find it here." Do you have a chance to go up? ”
Huolin nodded: "I can use the excuse of strict inspection and defense, and go out once at night." ”
"I have a string of footbells on my ankles, you hang it outside the temple, and Liang Ci will follow the fragrance of this 'jade' to find here."
Huolin hesitated slightly: "It's rude." Then he squatted down, and with a little force, he tore off the footbell on my ankle, tucked it into the cuffs, and said with a little embarrassment: "Then miss, you ......."
"It's okay, I'll be careful."
Huo Lin considered the pros and cons before he made up his mind and said, "I need to take away your silver needles and poisonous 'medicine'. ”
If Huolin is 'selfish', it will inevitably be detected and exposed, so I whispered: "Naturally. ”
Huolin should not stay here for a long time, so he secretly untied the 'hole' on my waist, and said with a cruel smile: "Sure enough, there are a lot of hidden goods, and the reputation is well deserved." ”
I pretended to scold, and Huolin said in a low voice: "There have been many mysterious people in the branch altar recently, I'm afraid that the big fish has 'appeared'...... Tell my master for peace. ”
Fang Cai laughed and shook the lock in his hand, secretly made a 'look' at me, locked my prison 'door' again, and didn't forget to show off the things in his hand to the two, and shouted: "See, remember to stay away from her, otherwise I don't know how I died." ”
Both of them were amazed, secretly glad they hadn't provoked me.
The men in black no longer patrol back and forth. It must have been night, but I couldn't estimate the exact time or what time it was.
In the first half of the night, I didn't dare to sleep, I was always vigilant and didn't dare to be negligent. In the second half of the night, I heard a crowd of footsteps outside the prison, and many people ran over in a panic from outside, and some people shouted: "The imperial army is coming, quickly organize a retreat." ”
Faintly there was a bright light outside, and the smell of smoke and burnt smell was wafting in from outside.
I couldn't help but rejoice that Liang Ci had finally found this place. I couldn't help but stand up and look out against the railing.
Someone in the cell also noticed the situation, and with a shout, there was finally movement in the whole cell, and more people stood up and talked about it excitedly.
"We're trying to get out," I said loudly, "the imperial army has come to our rescue." ”
The crowd was 'inflamed', and the prisoners shook the iron railings with all their might, hoping that they could be opened, but in vain.
I anxiously shook the lock on the 'door' of the prison, and with a great deal of force, the lock of the 'door' fell off. Before leaving, Huolin secretly looked at me, and he must have tampered with the lock and damaged the lock cylinder.
I was overjoyed, opened the prison door, rushed out, and finally found a rusty hammer at the entrance of the passageway, and returned to smash the locks of the nearby cells one by one, and released the prisoners held inside.
The big 'door' of the cell was kicked open with a "bang", and a fierce murderous aura rushed to the face. Before the two men at the front could scream, they were already lying in a pool of blood. I panicked and retreated, and a long sword was already aimed at my 'chest' at lightning speed, forcing me back step by step.
There was a person outside the 'door', still wearing a green sermon robe, but he took off the disguise on his face, and 'revealed' a dry and fierce face, glaring at me viciously, and 'pressing' towards me step by step.
"Want to run? Hmph, do you think I'm going to let you go? Lord Qi was provoked by you, right? ”
"It's not so much that I provoked it, but that you are clever and set yourself on fire." I sneered, "I remember that I was taken captive after being stunned by your 'medicine'. ”
"You knew early on that I was pretending, so you did it, didn't you?" The man squinted his eyes slightly, looking at me dangerously, his eyes as cold as a viper.
I nodded: "A wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts." ”
"Why? I think it's a seamless game, how can you find out who I am? He looked at me in amazement.
"That's because she originally knew the old man Tianyuan, and her step lotus was taught by the old man Tianyuan himself." A cold answer came from outside, penetrating the thick murderous aura and refreshing me.
Liang Ci held the red red sword in his hand, and walked in slowly, and there was a demonic fire behind him, which made him feel like he was from Shura Hell.
The man stood with his back to Liang Ci, and suddenly turned his head, as if he couldn't believe the sudden appearance of Liang Ci: "How can you be so fast? There are many internal organs in my sect, and there are silver dragons to resist, it is impossible. ”
Liang Ci slightly hooked his lips and smiled, with a hint of sarcasm: "You are so stupid, how can you be the helmsman of the rudder?" I have been following your carriage to Antai Temple, and you don't even notice it? If it weren't for the time-consuming destruction of your internal organs, your Bodhi Sect would have been wiped out by now. ”
