I didn't wait long for me to think about it, the heavy iron sound sounded outside the door again, I hurriedly stood up, I thought it was Jun Yao back, but before I glanced out the window, the iron door was slowly opened from the outside, invisibly, the cold iron chain was locked on my hands and ankles, and then I felt someone in front of me suddenly, and my body staggered, and I was dragged out of the door.

I was furious and wanted to do it, but I was surprised to find that not only had I lost all my physical strength, but I couldn't even use the power of the remnant soul.

The unseen man in front of me deliberately tugged at the chain to guide me in changing directions, and without saying a word, I walked through the long corridor and was confronted by an empty side room.

The room is empty, but there are chairs on both sides, just a table covered with black cage cloth stands steadily, and the table is full of wood, sticks, printing boxes, and red and black inkstones, just like a posture of a yamen ascending to the hall.

Standing in the center, I could feel that the person leading the way in front of me had loosened the chain and disappeared, but I didn't dare to be careless, turned my head and stared at the empty chairs and stools on both sides, and snorted coldly: "Don't hide it, it's all here, come out and show the master, what do you look like, you don't even dare to show your face." ”

"Presumptuous!"

As soon as I finished speaking, a shout exploded in the lobby, and a man wearing a red robe appeared on the chair on the left, with a black crane embroidered in the middle of the robe, sitting in the middle of the chair, looking at me and glaring angrily, "I don't know how to repent when I die, beware of hitting you again with eighty boards, so that your soul will fly and be annihilated!" ”

"It turned out to be you."

I nodded in realization, "I thought you were the boss here, but I didn't expect you to be a minion, I'm really disappointed." ”

"Bai Xiaoyi."

A low cry with coercion sounded in my ears, I turned my head instantly, and found that on the hall case in front of me, I don't know when there was a middle-aged man in a python robe, with a cold face, a majestic demeanor, a pair of torch-like eyes staring at me, and said: "The prisoner in the hall, but the fifteenth generation descendant of the Bai family, Bai Xiaoyi himself?" ”

I frowned, my eyes glanced left and right, and I didn't see the third-class officials with water and fire sticks, and said with a dignified look: "My name is Bai Xiaoyi, but whether it is the fifteenth generation descendant of the Bai family, it is not very clear." ”

The man in the python robe shook his head, but he slapped the wood in shock, and said coldly: "Do you know what the official brought you here today?" ”

I pursed my lips and smiled, looked at the man in the red robe next to me, and said, "You ask him, he knows." ”

"Presumptuous!"

Zhu Pao's face was secretly angry, and he was about to have a seizure, but he was glanced back by the man in the python robe.

"You came to Xudu Prison this time, whether you were instructed by someone, who instructed you, and what you asked you to do, you tell the truth, and this official can open the king's net, plead with the above, and let you live."

The man in the python robe said conclusively, but I stopped in my ears but couldn't say the harshness, and said lightly: "No one asked me to come, but I accidentally broke into here by mistake, and I was trying to get out, and I was caught by you." ”

"Tomorrow night in spite of it!"

As soon as the man in the red robe spoke, he was shocked to shoot again.

"If there is no one behind the back, how can you find my prison in this vast flood, and if there is no internal and external cooperation, how can the door of my prison be opened for you to enter? Invite it truthfully, otherwise it will inevitably suffer for a while. ”

As soon as I talked about the pain of flesh and skin, I immediately rushed up from the depths of my heart, gritted my teeth and said, "You can ask what you want to ask directly, you don't have to beat around the bush like this." ”

The python-robed man smiled, nodded, and said, "What is your relationship with that person?" ”

"That person?" I looked up.

"That man."

"Who is that person, if you don't explain it, how do I know who you're referring to?"

The man in the python robe looked gloomy, as if he couldn't make up his mind for a while, but at this time, on the chair on my left hand, an old man who was also wearing a red robe appeared out of thin air, clasped his fists and rushed to the desk and said: "Lord Ge, our time is limited, we might as well tell this kid clearly, let him hurry up and sign the charge, so as not to delay the major affairs of the main director." ”

"But it's not good to induce the prisoners to identify the four major towns by name."

As he spoke, another man in a red robe appeared on the chair on the left.

"I think what Lord Liu said is that the top priority is to complete the order given by the chief secretary, if you can't hand in the confession within the time limit, I'm afraid you and I won't be able to deal with it."

……

The lobby, which had been quiet a moment ago, was suddenly noisy at this moment, and with the sound of a sentence, the empty chairs on both sides were also filled in an instant by these people in red robes, arguing with each other, as if they couldn't make up their minds about whether to take the initiative to say the name of the deaf person.

But what I care about at the moment is not this, I always feel that these people are different since I entered the prison of Xudu, they are not humans, nor ghosts, nor do they belong to the remnant souls, and their bodies appear at will, as if they have no fear, and they don't take me seriously at all.

"Silence."

The cold words of the man in the python robe dispersed the hustle and bustle in the room, and at the same time his eyes swept to everyone, and finally fell on me, saying: "Throughout the ages, those who can enter my prison are all ghosts who are against the heavens and demons, but no matter how they did evil in their lives, and what skills they have to go through the sky, as long as they enter my prison in the capital, within ten days, they all have to be obedient, what to say, let him do whatever he wants, he has to do anything, he can't say a word, today you little remnant soul is standing here, I didn't want to be tortured with you, But if you really push me into a hurry, you will suffer from these more than 300 kinds of torture. ”

Looking at his threatening eyes, I remembered Wei Junyao's depressed look when he left the prison, and suddenly his anger rushed from his heart to the top of his head, but he knew that he couldn't have a seizure, and now he must not involve Wei Junyao in this matter, not even Yingchen and the second grandfather, so he could only improvise and find a way to escape.

Thinking of this, I raised my head, looked straight at the man in the python robe and said, "You want to ask the deaf man, right?" ”

A fine light flashed in the eyes of the python-robed man, and at the same time, dozens of red-robed officials on both sides hooked their heads and took notes, and I couldn't help but let out a sneer when I looked at it: "Tell me who it is, and you can let me go?" ”

The man in the python robe nodded, "As long as you tell who you are behind the scenes, the official will let you leave here." ”

"But do you have what it takes?" I raised my head slightly, "If you don't speak, do you really dare to let me go?" ”

The man in the python robe was obviously stopped by my question, his eyes were uncertain, but he still bit it to death and said: "Lord Si has an order, as long as you confess truthfully, I can't embarrass you." ”

"Then why didn't he come and interrogate me himself?" I asked.

"This ......" The python-robed man was slightly stunned and said, "Lord Si is busy with official business, just asking questions, so I won't bother him to come forward in person." ”

"That's right." I nodded, stood with my hands in my hands, glanced at the people who were staring at me on both sides, thought for a while and smiled: "Before that, can you tell me first, what are you people, otherwise, how can I know if you are true or false, in case someone deliberately stumbles and tricks me, even if I leave here, won't I be able to live?" ”

"Presumptuous, how can we be regarded as things?"

The man in the red robe who grabbed me at the beginning was furious, but before he could continue, the man in the python robe raised his hand and said, "We are all deaf." ”

"Deaf?" I was slightly stunned, "You also have the surname 聻?" ”

The man in the python robe shook his head, "Otherwise, there is a saying since ancient times, people die as ghosts, and ghosts die as deaf, and this deaf refers to us." ”

I chuckled inwardly, looked at everyone present in shock, and exclaimed, "You are all deaf? ”

"Exactly." The man in the python robe said.

"Deaf who is not controlled by the five elements and reincarnation?"

"Not bad."

Seeing the python-robed man raise his reveal slightly arrogantly, I couldn't help but sigh and say: "According to the record of the Netherworld: 'People die as ghosts, ghosts die as deaf, deaf death as Xi, and death as Yi. I want to know, how can you deaf people be able to become deaf instead of being annihilated when your soul dies? ”
