Su Baitong followed Ling Xiaotian to the prison.
Ling Xiaotian noticed that Su Baitong was a little unsteady along the way, and his breath was also a little chaotic.
"Would you like to take a break?" Ling Xiaotian stopped and waited for her to catch up, "There are no outsiders here, you don't have to hold on." ”
Su Baitong did feel a little uncomfortable. She had used the ability of yin and yang eyes excessively in the courtyard just now, and now she was dizzy and her temples were swollen and painful.
"Out of the way...... she gasped, "this matter can't be delayed any longer, or more people will die." ”
Ling Xiaotian sighed helplessly, "Tongtong, you don't need to be so strong as a woman, you have to learn to rely on others occasionally." ”
Hearing this affectionate name, Su Baitong's head hurt even more, who can she rely on?
Her father left himself to the third uncle's family, and he lived there for ten years, and even he never wanted to protect his daughter. The only person she can rely on is herself.
"It's okay, I'll be fine when I get some sleep at night." She didn't want to continue the topic, so she walked forward beyond Ling Xiaotian.
The cell was very dimly lit, and there were several braziers on the floor. The flames crackled, and the figures cast by the jailers as they patrolled illuminated the opposite wall, like ghosts writhing their waists.
Su Baitong subconsciously leaned towards Ling Xiaotian's side.
In the darkness, the corners of Ling Xiaotian's mouth curled slightly, and with the cover of his wide sleeves, he took Su Baitong's hand.
Su Baitong shrank his hand as if he had been burned.
But Ling Xiaotian grabbed it very tightly, and didn't mean to let go of her at all, he leaned close to her black hooded ear, and whispered: "Tongtong, don't move, I don't have the insect repellent incense you make on me, so I can only follow you closely, if something happens, you can't leave me and run away......"
It sounded like she was begging for protection, and she couldn't refuse at all.
Su Baitong resisted the urge to shake him off, and was led forward by him without saying a word.
The prison was filled with the smell of sour rot, and the prisoners raised their heads when they heard the footsteps, like hungry wolves in the darkness. The eyes glow green.
Ling Xiaotian deliberately took half a step beyond Su Baitong, hiding her figure in his shadow.
"Your Excellency...... Okay, okay......"
"Wronged...... Adult ......"
"Adult ......"
The voices of the prisoners pleading came and went, Ling Xiaotian turned his face sideways, and secretly glanced at Su Baitong, seeing that she was half-bowing her head, and her whole face was hidden in the black hood. I couldn't see any mood change in her.
"Are you afraid?" He asked in a low voice, a smile in his voice.
Su Baitong knew that she was like this now, and it was easy for others to think that she was afraid.
That's right! She was afraid, but it wasn't the prison itself, or the prisoners.
She was afraid of the flames that leaped in the iron basin.
In her eyes, these flames were like ghosts, ready to engulf her, just like in her dreams. Burned her to the ground.
Ling Xiaotian didn't make too much fun of her, and took her around and into a single room.
"This is the cell where Feng Zhaoyuan is being held." Ling Xiaotian explained.
There was no one here but them, and Ghostface and his guards were all guarding the door, and no one came in.
Su Baitong took off the hood on his head and looked around carefully.
Ling Xiaotian took a torch from the wall and wanted to illuminate her.
I didn't want to get close to her just now, but I saw her body trembling and froze instantly.
He suddenly realized what the problem was, and that day in the hospital of the hospital, her accident was abnormal, and there was always a sign that this girl who was bold on the surface was actually afraid of fire!
Ling Xiaotian was silent, and inserted the torch back in. Low Jie Wai Brother.
"Can you still see clearly?" He brushed the ashes off his hands and deliberately diverted the conversation, "Even in the daytime, the light here is very dim. ”
Su Baitong quickly returned to normal, she came to the door of the cell, and first looked at the furnishings in the cell.
Conditions here were much better than those outside, with a straw-covered bed and a bucket in the corner.
She lowered her head to look at the ground, not knowing what she was looking for, Ling Xiaotian followed her gaze and saw her staring at the bottom of the barred door of the cell.
"What did you find?" Ling Xiaotian asked in a deep voice.
Su Baitong squatted down and reached out to remove something from a wooden thorn on the fence gate.
"What is it?" Ling Xiaotian leaned over, his body carried the smell of cold plum incense pills, Su Baitong could tell at a glance, this is a high-grade incense pill, the quenching process alone will take seven seven and forty-nine days, and it is also mixed with hundreds of medicinal herbs and spices such as agarwood, sandalwood, and musk.
This is an incense pill that only the nobles of the palace can afford.
Su Baitong took half a step back and stretched out his hand.
Ling Xiaotian saw a small piece of reddish-brown leather in her palm, he carefully stretched out his fingers and pinched it, feeling that the thing was a little soft, but still with a certain flexibility.
"What is this?"
"Snakeskin." Su Baitong spit out two words.
"Snakes?" Ling Xiaotian looked at her in surprise, the first thing that came to his mind was those slender insects that came out of people's ears.
"I don't know what they're called, even though they look like snakes." Su Baitong said, "I don't know what Qi people call them. ”
"Is there really a Qi person insect girl in this world?" Ling Xiaotian still couldn't believe it.
"Yes." Su Baitong said, "If the black insect is compared to a soldier, then the red insect is their commander, it can control those ordinary insects, when it enters the human body, it will be controlled along with the human body itself, and it can manipulate the person who is entered by the red insect to do anything according to the orders of its owner." ”
Ling Xiaotian suddenly felt a little dry in his throat, "So...... The missing body...... It was he who fled. ”
This incident is simply incredible, if someone else told him that the body ran away by himself, he would not believe it.
But everything that Su Baitong proved to him had to make him believe it.
In the Qiliang City where they are located, there are indeed secret agents of the Qi State&mdah; Qi people who are good at manipulating insects.
"Where is Feng Taishou being held now?" Su Baitong asked.
"In another private room."
"If my guess is right, ...... tomorrow night No, maybe tonight, he'll be missing too. Su Baitong is colored.
In the darkness, a trace of fierceness flashed in Ling Xiaotian's eyes, "Someone! ”
"What do you command?" Ghostface appears at the door of the cell.
"Has the insect repellent incense made by Miss Su gone down?"
"Lord Hui, it's already been distributed."
"Strengthen vigilance, especially for the cell where Feng Taishou is located, send more people, if something goes wrong again this time, you will let them come to see me!"
"Yes!"
