On the way back to the makeshift shelter, the atmosphere between several people had become uncomfortable. Shen Cheng walked in front with the fragment of light stone, and Xuan Zijun, who followed closely, did not use light saber to illuminate, but put the sword in the sheath and kept his hand on the hilt of the sword.

Zhang Yuan and Tai walked at the back with iron heads, in fact, this kind of scene was definitely not what Zhang Yuan wanted, but let alone Xuan Zijun, when he himself learned that Shen Cheng had hidden his magic ability, it was a little difficult to trust Shen Cheng anymore.

"Boss, I don't think the situation is right." Tai Meng stuck his head over and whispered.

"Nonsense, do you still need to say this? Eh, by the way, did you know that Shen Cheng escaped the forbidden demon ritual before? ”

Tai Meng shook his head when he heard Zhang Yuan's words: "In my impression, I haven't seen him use magic, and I don't know if he was completely unaffected by the forbidden demon or slowly recovered after leaving a little magic power, but it is also possible that he found a way to hide that he has strong magical strength." ”

"Oh." Zhang Yuan lowered his head and thought about it, then raised his head and asked, "Then were you forbidden when you came in?" ”

"Boss, you think too highly of me, how can I be an ordinary person who has the ability to learn that kind of advanced magic, I will also use the lightsaber, and then I can use the fireball technique to make a fire and cook, and I won't know anything else." The forbidden demon ritual is generally only used by those who are relatively strong, so that they can't use those high-level magic tricks to escape from prison after they come in, and ordinary soldiers can also watch them. ”

Zhang Yuan nodded: "In this way, I feel that it is impossible to conceal something, Shen Cheng should have a means to avoid the forbidden demon, if it weren't for this incident, we may not know that Shen Cheng has this ability." ”

"Alas, Boss, ...... I ask you something"

"Yes, I'm not allowed to talk about you in the future, I don't sound awkward." Zhang Yuan pointed to Tai Meng's nose and said.

Tai Meng quickly nodded in agreement like a chicken pecking rice, and then asked: "Boss, why did you escape the forbidden demon, I think the magic you put before is so powerful." Oh, by the way, boss, you're so powerful, you definitely won't be locked up here forever, can you take me with you when you go out. ”

"Be quiet." Zhang Yuan glared at Tai Meng, and in his heart he was thinking about how to make up a reason to fool Tai Meng, always thinking that he could use thunder and lightning magic.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, shook his head and said, "Alas, didn't I say that I am from the Star and Moon System, why do you all think that I am from the Thunder and Lightning Department?" In fact, it was not my own strength at that time, it was a life-saving thing left to me by my teacher, which could be automatically triggered when I encountered danger, producing a thunderstorm to protect my body. Alas, it's a pity, this equipment is disposable, it can't be used repeatedly, and after using it once, the equipment will turn to fly ash and cease to exist. ”

Zhang Yuan said and said, secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Xuan Zijun who was walking in front, he guessed that the other party should also be able to hear the conversation between him and Tai Meng, so as to dispel the concerns of the two people.

"Zhang Yuan, are you telling the truth? I was so excited just now, I'm sorry. Zhang Yuan's mind suddenly appeared with an auditory hallucination of Xuan Zijun apologizing to himself.

"Do you think that an apology is useful, and if an apology can solve it...... Ah, I didn't mean that, I meant it didn't matter, I didn't really care at all. Zhang Yuangang was halfway through his brain before he remembered what kind of auditory hallucination this was, and it was obviously Xuan Zijun who used the star technique that had not yet been lifted to convey a message to himself.

"You just said that, you can't forgive me yet." Xuan Zijun's voice sounded a little lost.

Zhang Yuan was stupid, he was thinking about something, this is a big misunderstanding. Zhang Yuan hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, do you think I am such a grudgeful person?" Don't think about it, let's think about how to get out. ”

What Zhang Yuan didn't expect was that Xuan Zijun changed the topic and said, "What Tai Meng said just now, is it true that you want to escape?" ”

"Boss, what's wrong?" Tai Meng saw Zhang Yuan suddenly glaring at him, and asked with his neck bent.

Zhang Yuancai didn't bother to pay attention to this living treasure, but Xuan Zijun's question couldn't help but answer, how could he admit that he was going to escape from prison, he could only explain: "Don't listen to this stupid nonsense, as a good citizen, how can I, as a good citizen, do something that hurts nature and violates the law?" ”

"Poof, if you were a good citizen, you wouldn't be locked up here. But if you really want to go, I can assume that you don't know, I don't think you are the kind of person who is extremely vicious. ”

Zhang Yuan scratched his head, I don't look like a vicious person, I am already one of the best good people in the Western Army, if I can be a bad person, there may not be good people in the academy. But at least Xuan Zijun said a fair word, Zhang Yuan hurriedly responded: "Thank you for the compliment, but let's think about how to get out of here first, this mine can't get out, so why talk about escaping from prison?" ”

"Okay, but I'll give you a heads up. I heard this Shen Cheng call you boss, but I think you still have to be more wary of him, I always feel that he is not a good person. Xuan Zijun didn't know what to think, and suddenly reminded Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan pondered for two seconds, and also reminded: "Then you have to pay attention to your boss, he is the real bad guy." Shen Cheng hasn't done anything yet, at least, but I can say that this accident is most likely the fault of your bastard chief. ”

"You said the chief did it, how is it possible?" Xuan Zijun asked in surprise, his words full of suspicion.

"I know what you're trying to say, you first want to ask him why he blew up this damn mine." Zhang Yuan said quickly, after the mining accident began, he had actually been thinking about the ins and outs of the matter, until a terrible thought had just formed in his mind, which allowed him to start reviewing the whole process.

"So let's start from the beginning, I was the first person he wanted to get rid of, and it was not a personal grudge, it was just his task. So now you're going to ask two other questions, why did he get rid of me, why did he get rid of me in such a complicated way? ”

Xuan Zijun, who was walking in front, nodded casually, which made Zhang Yuan know that he could continue to analyze: "The first question, please forgive me for not being able to explain in detail, after all, this is my own business, and I don't really want to involve you as well." The second question, I think, is for two reasons. I've been wondering why he didn't find someone to kill me secretly while he had just thrown me into prison, or took advantage of me to make trouble. ”

"I guess the first is because there's an information gap between me and him, he's supposed to do this kind of thing many times, and every time he can be brought here to deal with it, most of the people will not be small characters. In order not to get into trouble, he chose to use a safe method instead of using any method that would be tracked. It's a pity that I'm really an ordinary person, and I was thrown in for a ridiculous reason, and of course I thought about getting out, but that's not the point. ”

"The point is the second reason, I haven't thought about it for a long time before why he used such a troublesome and troublesome means to get rid of me with the mining accident and will invite more trouble. But now I have a new idea, that is, the information gap between me and him is mutual, and he misunderstood, and I also misunderstood. Perhaps in the whole process, the real opponent he chose for himself was not me, but another guard. This idea was analysed after you reminded me, and your personality must be a nuisance in his eyes. ”

"Me, in the way?" Xuan Zijun was a little incredible.

"yes, it's in the way. Only you call us slaves, only you will go and get us a new bucket of porridge and come back, only you will kindly remind me of this prisoner. You may think that this is a normal thing, and you may think that it is ridiculous for someone to pee in our porridge. But have you ever thought that in such an already ridiculous environment, you who behave normally are the real absurd person. ”

"It's not in the city, it's not the outside world. There is only the endless oppression of the prisoners by the guards, so everyone will behave extremely unfriendly to us prisoners. But you've probably thought about that, and I think you can understand what I'm saying. For all these reasons, that bastard must have seen you as a thorn in the eye, and it wouldn't be hard to accept to get rid of you. ”

"Alas, what you said seems to make sense, but I still can't accept that it's true." Xuan Zijun said directly this time, Tai Meng and Shen Cheng both looked at him, but they didn't expect him to suddenly say such a sentence.

Zhang Yuan also sighed, since he had told this matter, he simply confessed it and carried it out to the end: "That's right, only if he takes getting rid of a guard as the goal, he will use means that have less impact than the death of the guard." Under normal circumstances, if a guard like you were to die in the line of duty, someone would definitely come to investigate the cause in detail, but now that he has provided the reason, no one will come to investigate these anymore. I think at most someone will come back and confirm the cause of the mining disaster, and it is likely that this cause will also be blamed on you. ”

"Damn, if what you say is true, I must go out and expose him!" Xuan Zijun clenched his fists and his eyes cracked.

"Who, who is exposed?" Tai Meng asked with a confused expression.

"Shut up!" This time, it was Zhang Yuanshen and Xuan Zijun who said this sentence together.

"No, I'm just asking a question......"

Shen Cheng also saw the clue from the conversation between the two at this time, and he directly answered for Zhang Yuan: "I don't think you are enough to fight the warden of this minecart now, after all, the credibility of your words is far less than his. And you may now have been preconceived as the main responsible person by those who came to investigate, let alone your whimsical accusation. ”

"But, what should I do in that case?" Xuan Zijun squatted on the ground uncomfortably and covered his head.

"Hmph, go out, there is naturally a way!"
