Chapter 139: The Darkblood Guard's Torture Chamber
The person who came was wearing the black leather armor of the Darkblood Guard, but the cuffs and shoulders were inlaid with purple wide edges, and he was tall and burly, with a pair of eyebrows as thick as paint, which seemed to be wider than ordinary people's eyebrows.
His eyes were as bright as cold stars in the night sky, and there was a light of wisdom in the depths. It's just that when he saw Xuanyuan Yu again, his gaze instantly became respectful and cautious: "Young Master." ”
Xuanyuan frowned, and there was some dissatisfaction in his tone: "What's the matter?" ”
Ying Li said: "What the young master ordered before. ”
"Dragon's Jun?"
Shadow from the head, default.
Xuanyuan's gaze changed and changed, and when he turned his head, he looked at the side hall of the Flower Hall where Xue'er was located: "The origin of that person?" ”
"Orphan, adopted by the former dark six in the dark blood guard since he was a child, and his martial arts are also passed down from the former dark six, he is agile, and it shouldn't be a problem to protect Miss Shen." Yingli was respectful and replied to Xuanyuan Yu meticulously.
Xuanyuan frowned again: "Is it reliable?" ”
"Reliable." Shadow said, "The subordinates only found out not long ago, because the former dark six violated the rules by adopting them privately, the subordinates have always been sympathetic and saved their lives, and they have been loyal to their subordinates since then......"
"Loyal to you." Xuanyuan's voice was a little cold, but it also carried a hint of mockery, "To me, it may not be loyal!" ”
The shadow was stunned, and under Xuanyuan's mocking gaze, he involuntarily lowered his head, not daring to make eye contact with the other party again.
Xuanyuan Yu's dark and deep eyes did not have any emotion, and his tone was light: "I hope that during the time I am away, Xue'er will not have any accidents!" ”
"Yes." Yingli's answer was still unwavering.
"Where are the people?" Xuanyuan asked again.
"Temporarily locked up in the Darkblood Guard's torture cell."
"What did I ask you to prepare?"
Yingli took out a small cloth bag from his arms, Xuanyuan Yu reached out to take it, but when he opened it, it was a paper bag and a palm-sized brocade bag, and there was nothing else.
Xuanyuan Yu put the paper bag to his nose and sniffed it, and then untied the red rope on the brocade bag.
A dark red pill the size of a thumb belly rolled out of it, and a spicy and slightly sour smell permeated it.
Xuanyuan Yu's eyes finally showed a hint of satisfaction, and he took the dark red pill back into the brocade bag again, and then said slowly: "With the token of the third prince, take that Jiuhua Sakura here to accompany her temporarily." ”
This time, Yingli didn't answer immediately, but hesitated: "But ......"
Xuanyuan Yu didn't speak, nor did he interrupt the other party, his dark eyes were calm and waveless, so he glanced at Yingli like this, but he couldn't say anything about Yingli's dissuasion!
Calm is always on the surface, and the anger inside has long been on the verge of eruption.
"You go for yourself!" Xuanyuan said, his voice unmistakable, and then took a dim and dark token handed over by Yingli, glanced at it, and put it into his arms along with the previous cloth bag.
After saying that, he no longer looked at the shadow, and the next step was to step out, and the person was already three feet away.
It only took three or two steps, and only one shadow was left standing in place with a bitter smile.
Leaving the eldest princess's fragrance courtyard, Xuanyuanyu's pace was still the same, just one step out, and the distance was greater. It's like a gust of wind blowing, and even the figure can't be seen clearly.
Xuanyuan Yu entered the gate of the capital again, and his speed slowed down, and at first glance he looked no different from ordinary pedestrians.
The eldest princess's incense courtyard is in the west of the city, so Xuanyuan Yu also entered through the west gate. It's just that he didn't enter the palace directly as he said to Xue'er, but kept walking along the outermost palace wall of the palace.
There were no idle people around for a long time, as if they had come to a deserted and grassy wilderness.
Xuanyuan separated the weeds that blocked the way and continued to walk out, the corners of his clothes rubbed against the blades of grass, making a rustling sound, he frowned slightly, and took out the token of Yingli from his arms.
Two people in black leather armor, even whose faces were covered with black cloths, appeared silently at this time, one after the other, cutting off Xuanyuan's way of coming and going at the same time.
Xuanyuan's face has long been devoid of the doting gentleness when facing Xue'er, just like the surface of a frozen lake, calm and waveless when it looks at it, but it is actually chilling to the bone.
Without saying a word, he held the sign up in front of the person opposite.
The token was dark and gloomy, and the patterns on it seemed to have been soaked in blood, revealing a bloody and hideous aura, and the teeth and claws made people's hearts shudder.
After the person on the other side took a closer look, his gaze crossed Xuanyuan and bowed slightly towards his companion, the person in front stepped sideways, and the person behind took two steps forward to make peace with the person in front.
Xuanyuan said: "Lead the way." ”
The two black-armored people ignored a glance and turned around at the same time in a very tacit understanding, leading the way for Xuanyuan Yu in front.
Xuanyuan followed these two people as if walking in a labyrinth, turning left and right, advancing and retreating, and the scenery along the way began to repeat, which was not easy for people to remember.
The token that Yingli gave to Xuanyuan Yu obviously has a lot of power, and although the two people were masked along the way, their attitude was respectful.
As he walked, Xuanyuan Yu said the second sentence: "Take me to the new person I brought." ”
The two men looked at each other as if in a pantomime, turned their feet, and continued to lead the way until they came to a cave that was half covered by vines.
When I lifted the vine, there was a shallow cave where I could see the head at a glance, and there were weeds and dead leaves everywhere, and it looked messy and depressed.
Xuanyuan frowned, and was thinking about it, when he saw one of the two dark blood guards in black leather armor take two steps forward, walked into the center of the cave, looked up, stretched out his hand, and ripped down a soft ladder!
He climbed up first, and the remaining dark blood guard stretched out his hand to signal to Xuanyuan, who then walked into the cave and looked towards the place where the soft ladder hung down, but saw that a mountain rock above his head was like a dog's tooth, and on one side was hiding a black hole that could allow two people to pass through, like the mouth of a beast, although it was daytime, it was pitch black inside, and there was a faint fire stealing out.
The Darkblood Guard who had climbed up earlier poked his head out of the hole, holding a torch in his hand, and waved it at Xuanyuan.
Xuanyuan Yu grabbed the soft ladder, used his arms hard, climbed up in two clicks, drilled into the hole, and climbed more than ten steps, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his vision suddenly opened up.
A circular space appeared in Xuanyuan's field of vision, and torches were inserted into the walls on the left and right sides of each zhang, illuminating the entire space.
And underneath the torch, there was a dark blood guard with the same black leather armor and a black scarf masking to guard it.
The ventilation effect here is obviously not very good, the smell in the air is a little strange, but Xuanyuan Yu is very keen to smell the sweet smell of blood from the smell mixed with sweat, rot, fishy and other smells, fresh and old, gathered from all directions, wandering like a lonely ghost in this hollowed-out mountain, but there is no outlet for catharsis.
Xuanyuan glanced at the Dark Blood Guard who came up first, and the man didn't need him to speak, and spontaneously continued to lead the way in front.
The Darkblood Guard behind him also climbed up, but instead of continuing with them, he stayed at the hole where the soft ladder was hanging down.
His eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness, and Xuanyuan Yu realized that on the mountain wall facing him, there was actually a round arch that had been artificially hewn, extending all the way to form a long corridor.
Xuanyuan Yu followed the dark blood guard and continued to walk forward, only to feel that the road went all the way down, and suddenly folded somewhere, and the tilt was larger, and even artificially excavated stone steps appeared, and after turning two or three times, iron gates began to appear on the mountain walls on both sides.
In other words, countless stone caves were dug out of the mountain walls on both sides, and then pressed the iron gate, which spontaneously formed a claustrophobic space that imprisoned people.
The iron door looked very thick and heavy, and it was almost welded all around, but it was opening a small door half a foot square at the same chest level as a person, and it was firmly locked with a large lock.
There was silence all around, and I didn't know if there was anyone behind the iron gates, and in short, there was no sound at all, only all kinds of rotten and unpleasant smells emanating from the cracks in the iron gates, which made people's nostrils itch, and they couldn't help but want to sneeze.
It's no wonder that the Darkblood guards here have to cover their faces with black scarves, not to prevent others from seeing their true faces, but to cover up the strange smell that can't be emanated from this cave!
It's just that Xuanyuan didn't seem to have any feelings for this, and his face was still as cold and stiff as the surface of a frozen lake.
The Darkblood Guard in front of him was still moving forward, and Xuanyuan only felt that he had walked about a hundred and ten steps, and followed the man to a door that was larger than the other iron gates.
In front of this iron door, there were actually two Darkblood guards, one on the left and one on the right, and the torches on both sides danced, reflecting their two eyes exposed outside the black scarf, looking like messengers from hell.
In fact, at this moment, in the belly of this oppressive mountain, if it weren't for the temperature emitted by the torches along the way, it would really make people feel like they were in hell.
The iron door is thick and tight, but there is a faint fresh smell of blood, mixed with the smell of earth, rust, burnt meat, and all kinds of smells you can or can't imagine, escaping towards the space outside the iron door.
In such a place, Mo said that there are also guards along the road of the Dark Blood Guard, that is, only two people are left in the cave that hangs down the soft ladder, or even the vines, and the people inside are afraid that if they want to escape, they will be like ascending to the sky.
Of course, it would be a different matter if you could dig a hole from somewhere in the rock wall with your bare hands, like a pangolin.
The premise of this is that you can distinguish the direction in the belly of the mountain, and happen to be able to dig outside, instead of digging deeper and deeper, doing coolies for the torture chamber of the Dark Blood Guard, adding new corridors, and finally becoming your own prison.
The iron gate here is not only wider than the others, but also seems to be thicker, and the three of the Darkblood Guards who led the way for Xuanyuan Yu and the Darkblood Guards guarding the door worked together to push the iron gate open halfway!
The strange smell of Shicai suddenly came to his face, Rao is Xuanyuan couldn't help frowning, subconsciously took two steps back, and when he looked at it, a place like purgatory on earth appeared in front of him.
