256. Chapter 256
Before Chen Yin could say whether he would go or not, a ball of light expanded from between the two of them, enveloping them in it.
Chen Yin only felt that his feet were empty, and the stool under his buttocks was gone, and his eyes were full of whiteness. When he came back to his senses, he was standing with Jas in a dimly lit and damp cell.
Water seeped through the walls, and the 'ticking' sound was loud and crisp, as if the unlit area outside the cell was very spacious and empty.
"What kind of good wine and food did you bring to the old man this time?" A questioning voice came from the depths of the dim and leaky cell, which sounded a little old.
Jas motioned for Chen Yin not to panic, walked slowly to the wall, took off a torch and walked towards the cell on each side, and replied, "Brother, what I brought you this time is more to your liking than the wine and food prepared for you at any time. ”
Chen Yin's heart suddenly became hot, and he secretly thought, "Is this to send me to eat as a meal?" but soon he was amused by this idea.
"Why did you bring someone with you?" the voice asked suddenly, this time with surprise in his tone.
"Ah, someone you asked me to find," Jas beckoned to Chen Yin and motioned for him to come in, "though not exactly him." ”
"He, what's his name?" the voice trembled slightly, and Chen Yin could feel that he was suppressing his excitement.
"Junior Chen Yin..."Chen Yin reported his name.
"Chen... Hide... Who are you, Chen Yiyin?" the voice became more and more old and tired.
Chen Yiyin is the father of the younger generation. Chen Yin was puzzled, he didn't know why all these people suddenly mentioned his father's name.
"Your mother's name is Yang Yingying?" the man's voice grew more and more excited.
Chen Yin followed Jas as he walked inside, and replied, "It's my mother's name." ”
The light of the torch in Jas's hand gradually illuminated the wall at the end, and Chen Yin used this light to see that it was an old man with a white beard and long hair covering his face, but he looked very sloppy and dirty, unkempt. When he got closer, Chen Yin saw that there was nothing below the knees of the old man's legs, and the place where the two thin calves should have been replaced by two arm-thick chains, and the other end was firmly nailed to the ground.
Hearing the footsteps of Jass and the others entering, the old man crawled forward with his only two hands, which was the highest greeting he could have for the visitor in his condition.
"Come on, come here, let the old man take a closer look. ”
"Brother, you can take it easy. Jas turned around and patted Chen Yin on the shoulder, letting him move forward alone.
Chen Yin walked over hesitantly, the old man struggled to stand up, one hand supported the ground, and the other hand raised and groped Chen Yin's face: "Come and let the old man touch your appearance." ”
It was not surprising for the other party to say this, because when the old man propped up his body, Chen Yin saw a black hole on the left and right of his crooked nose, although the scar looked like it was many years ago, it was still shocking.
Chen Yin hesitated to stretch his face over, and Jas said behind him: "This is your father's master, he won't do anything to you, just do as he says." ”
"My father's master?" Chen Yin heard this, and turned his head to look at the old man in front of him intently, although it was difficult to take his eyes off the two black holes, he still looked at the old man's face so carefully.
Chen Yin had never heard his mother mention this, and how could his father's master be locked up in such a place—despite these doubts, Chen Yin stretched his face first.
The old man's hands were much rougher than Chen Yin had imagined, and in a moment, a smile appeared on the old man's face, which was slightly strange under the lamplight: "Yes! Yes! It's just carved out of a mold! Yin'er, your father has also come to the capital?"
"No, my father died when I was very young. Chen Yin thought that Jas had taken him far away, but when he heard this, it turned out that he was still in the capital.
The old man was stunned for a moment, and when he spoke again, his voice was much lower: "How did Yi Yin die?"
"Mother said she had stumbled and fallen off a cliff—"
Before Chen Yin finished speaking, the old man laughed: "How could the old man's closed disciple fall to death?"
"My mother passed away... This time I came to the capital alone. No matter what kind of old person the other party was from his parents, Chen Yin suddenly felt very disgusted with the questions he asked.
The old man just kept looking at Chen Yin's face motionless, as if he could see it, the smile on his face was no longer there, he didn't ask Chen Yin about his father and mother again, but asked Jas instead, "Brother, how did you find Yin'er?"
"I don't need to look for him, he came by himself," said Jas, "and he now lives in the courtyard of the third prince in the palace." ”
"Why," exclaimed the old man, "could it be the Emperor—"
"Ah, so to speak," Jas knew what the old man was referring to, "and he has already obtained the soul jade you stole back then. ”
