Chapter 236: Death Row Prisoner

"If I had heard this, we would have started a fight."

The wolf demon spoke, but then frowned slightly: "Escorting a death row prisoner is so cautious, what does this Rakshasa City Lord want to do?" ”

Before his words landed, he saw two more figures appear on the road leading to Rakshasa City.

Coming back?

Feeling the murderous aura emanating from the wolf demon, my heart sank, but as the distance narrowed, when I saw the appearance of the person who came clearly, I couldn't help but feel relieved, the second grandfather came.

The second grandfather paced slowly, walking along the road all the way forward, and there was a person beside him, from his head to his chin, all covered by a black hat cloak, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but he could see a black chain hanging between the arms of the two, swaying from side to side as he walked.

With the lesson of Fang Cai, I didn't dare to speak out at the first time, and kept vigilantly watching the movements around me.

The second grandfather came straight to us with the man, and said with a slight pause: "Ladies and gentlemen, please go on the road." ”

Then he continued on his way.

I was stunned, and was about to hurry up to follow, when I saw Jin Xiaofa's eyes that wanted to speak and stopped, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'll come back to see you." ”

The group was speechless all the way, and returned directly to the canopy boat, everyone was very tacitly not spoken, and they had been letting the second grandfather support the boat in the Huangquan River, as if there was no end in sight, there were countless patrol soldiers who came and went, and there were countless sentry posts in the river, as if the wind and rain were coming, and the building was about to fall.

The concept of time has been lost on the Huangquan River, and it is impossible to distinguish between day and night, and everyone is like floating on the legendary Lechuan River, with no fixed place for life and death and drifting.

"The mouth of the Nine Springs River has arrived."

The second grandfather's faint words woke me up from my contemplation, and I found that the canopy boat was firmly parked on the river, and the fog on both sides of the river was hazy, and I couldn't tell where it was.

But when I looked along the current, I saw that less than ten meters further ahead was a huge estuary.

At a glance, nine rivers converge here, different from each other, with the same difference in water potential, all converged in the mouth of the mouth in front of them, which was the size of two football fields, but they did not stir with each other, and flowed into a long river in an orderly manner, slowly flowing to the sky.

The second grandfather stood at the bow of the boat, holding the boat artemisia in his hand and said, "How is it, do you feel a little familiar?" ”

I nodded and muttered, "Three forks." ”

But who knew that the second grandfather shook his head and said, "It's the water dividing sword." ”

"The Water Dividing Sword?"

I looked at the estuary again in amazement, and my brain turned a little around for a while, and I said incredulously: "Is there really a water dividing sword in the world?" ”

"Rumors may not be false, and the truth may not be true."

Hearing the second grandfather sigh thoughtlessly, I wondered: "What's going on with Sanchawan, isn't it a legend that the water-splitting sword was sunk at the bottom of Sanchawan by Dayu to prevent the flooding of the Yellow River, why is it here?" ”

The second grandfather stared at it and didn't speak, but the complex emotions contained in his eyes made me shudder, and I looked up suddenly, but I saw that there was no light in the gray sky, and then I looked down at the second grandfather, and couldn't help but say, "Is it here?" ”

The second grandfather sighed and said: "If it weren't for your grandfather Bai Lao Ghost to stop it, the water-dividing sword under the estuary would have been suffocated by the southern barbarian, it can be said that your Bai family has indirectly saved the Nine Prisons and Nine Springs from fire and water after the ancient battlefield of the Yellow River." ”

"The Water Dividing Sword?"

Even the wolf demon glanced at the estuary with some flattery, and sighed: "I thought it was just an artifact that existed in legends, but I didn't expect it to really exist, is it not that if this sword is pulled, the nine rivers will flood the nine prisons, and the entire nine prisons and nine springs, including the Nine Springs Mansion, will all be abolished." ”

The second grandfather also sighed, "Yes, the Water Dividing Sword is the root of the Nine Prisons and Nine Springs, as long as the sword is still here, the foundation of the Nine Prisons and Nine Springs will not be shaken." ”

"But......" I looked around, frowned, and said, "How come there is no one to guard such an important thing, so you are not afraid that someone will steal it again?" ”

The second grandfather chuckled lightly and said: "There are countless people who want to fight the idea of this sword for thousands of years, at the beginning, Jiuquan Mansion also sent a lot of good hands to guard this sword at the mouth of the river, but anyone who can fight its idea, all of them are not mortals, after losing batch after batch of masters, Jiuquan Mansion found that in fact, no matter how many people they have here, it is useless, because throughout the ages, there are countless people who can defeat these masters, but after entering the water, there is no one who can come out alive." ”

"Old Dragon Sword!" I couldn't help but say.

"No one knows if there is a real dragon under the water, so far this water-splitting sword was almost suffocated only when your grandfather was suffocated, the means of the treasure-splitting man are really ancient and shining, when the water-splitting sword is loosened, the entire Nine Prisons and Nine Springs are trembling, all the adults in the Nine Springs Mansion are present, but there is no way to take him, if it weren't for Grandpa, I'm afraid that the current Nine Prisons and Nine Springs would have become an ocean."

After listening to the words of the second grandfather, I opened my mouth wide in surprise and couldn't speak for a long time, but at this time, an unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Is it my last burial place, which is also here?" ”

Slightly stunned, he turned his head in the direction from which the voice came, and found that the person who spoke turned out to be the death row prisoner who didn't say a word from beginning to end, and his head was still shining in the cloak, just listening to the voice, he shouldn't be too old.

The second grandfather said lightly: "There are always people who have to make sacrifices for major events in the world, you go to Zero Rain City this time, it is only a matter of time before you start a knife and ask for a beheading, dying at this Jiuquan estuary, you can not only avoid the pain of prison, but also have the opportunity to reincarnate, it is much better than cutting off the soul with a knife and becoming a ghost from now on." ”

The man's body trembled slightly, and he sighed softly and said, "I think that when I first entered Jiuquan, it was the ancestor of the Bai family who crossed the river that I crossed, and I reported it one by one, and I understood the cause and effect, maybe I really had the opportunity to be reincarnated as a human being." ”

The attitude of the death row inmate in front of me was a little unexpected to me, it was too calm, it didn't feel like going to death, more like going to a banquet, I couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "Why were you convicted and executed?" ”

"It's nothing, just kill some pheasant lackeys."

After the man finished speaking, he said indifferently: "Give it a good time, the revenge will be avenged, and it is no different to live more, I just hope that God can give me a chance to be reincarnated, so that I can see the appearance of my wife and children in the next life, even if it is only for a second, it is enough." ”

Seeing that the second grandfather nodded, I hurriedly spoke: "Why do you want to kill him?" ”

"Kill him, you enter Zero Rain City instead of him, this is the only way." The second grandfather said.

I was stunned for a moment, and then I was puzzled and said, "What about the two of them?" ”

The second grandfather shook his head: "I just got the news in the city, I can't even enter Zero Rain City, and when you get to the place, the defenders of the city will bring you in, and others can't help you." ”

"How can this work!" The wolf demon immediately said: "Isn't this sending Xiao Yi to death, go to Zero Rain City alone, with his strength, don't say that he has to bring cold stone shackles, even if he doesn't bring it, after he is imprisoned, let's find a way to save him?" ”

"You don't have to worry about this, the deputy warden of Zero Rain City will pick out three prisoners to go to Paradise Lost every night for him to drive for fun, each time for about two hours, these two hours are Xiao Yi's only chance to save his father."

I hesitated and said, "But, how can I get out of the cell, and the cold shackles......"

The second grandfather waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about this, you should be imprisoned on the fourth floor after you enter Zero Rain City, the warden of that layer is surnamed Guang, he used to be a ferryman on the Yinquan River, and he received a lot of favors from your Bai family back then, you only need to report your name at that time, and he will naturally help you find a way." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and came to the side of the death row prisoner and said: "If you go further, you will reach the weak water river basin, I will not do anything with you, you will jump into the river by yourself, whether you live or die, there is no self and nothing to do with it, how about it?" ”

The death row prisoner didn't speak, just let out a long sigh, and then saw the second grandfather hold up the boat in his hand again, and drove the boat towards the mouth of the river.

When the canopy boat entered the whirlwind along the estuary, the second grandfather put down the boat in his hand, and the boat was like being guided, avoiding the river water coming from other river basins around, and drifted straight along the Huangquan River, and when it reached the confluence of the nine rivers, the boat suddenly stopped, and the second grandfather said: "Just here." ”
