Final Volume, Chapter XXIII

"Actually, it's like this......" Chen Fan briefly said their experience to Zhao Ling, when Chen Fan said that there was another self hidden in the energy crystal, Zhao Ling also seemed very surprised, because she had never heard that a person's soul can be put into the engraving instrument, so when she proposed to do in-depth research, Chen Fan refused, and the reason was: I don't want to die yet.

After that, they talked about what they had seen and heard separately, and with that, they went to sleep, and the night in prison passed quickly.

"Are they here again?"

"The damn underworld is here again. ā€

"This time it seems like a hundred. ā€

"Really, why can't we fight back?"

Overhead, there was a burst of noise, which woke up Chen Fan and the others in the prison.

"What are you arguing about early in the morning?" Chen Fan scratched his head and rubbed his eyes and complained, although it was a prison, but listening to his tone, he should have slept soundly last night, after all, he often lived in a broken house, and he had long been accustomed to this kind of living environment.

Lin Luoran also slept very well, she often wandered, and she had already developed a strong ability to adapt to the environment, if she wanted to sleep, no matter where she was, it would not affect her.

Needless to say, Zhao Ling has long been used to staying for eight days.

Hearing Chen Fan's voice, Lin Luoran and Zhao Ling also got up.

Chen Fan asked, "Zhao Ling, are they so noisy every day?"

"No!" Zhao Ling said, "I don't know what they are doing today." ā€

"The people of the underworld are coming. Lin Luoran said.

"What?" Chen Fan and Zhao Ling were stunned for a moment: "Are they here to catch us?"

"Probably not. Lin Luoran said: "I listened attentively just now, they are here to catch the people of the Mila clan. ā€

"What are the people of the underworld doing when they catch those big-headed monsters?" Chen Fan was puzzled.

"What is a big-headed monster?" Zhao Ling asked curiously.

"Needless to ask, of course it's the monster that captured us here!"

"Is the head of the person who captured you here very big?" Zhao Ling said, "But the head of the person who captured me here is not very big!"

"It's so big!" Chen Fan deliberately exaggerated: "It's bigger than my body!"

"Bigger than your body?" Zhao Ling chewed on this sentence, and suddenly clevered: "Oh! I understand what you said, they are not big-headed monsters at all." ā€

"Then you mean we're dazzled?" Chen Fan said.

"They usually wear strange armor when they go out, and they look like a big head. In fact, after taking off that armor, they look not much different from humans, except that their ears are a bit like cat ears. ā€

"Really?" Chen Fan was skeptical.

"Shhhhh

The two of them were instructed to listen attentively to the movements above.

I heard a man say, "What do you want to do here because our Mira clan and your Difu River water do not interfere with well water?"

Another man's voice replied, "Do you need to ask, you should know exactly what we're here for." The man spoke slowly, with a hint of arrogance and sarcasm in his words.

But this voice. Chen Fan and Lin Luoran will not forget, this person is one of the two knights of the underworld who fought with Lin Luoran in the slave market, and Sora, who is known as the right hand of the ruling.

"Sola?" Chen Fan said in surprise: "It's just to catch a few people, why would the Difu send such a high-status person?"

Chen Fan's question is not unreasonable, because when the underworld used to catch slaves, it only sent some second-class knights or lower-level knights out, but this time the arrest actually sent the underworld double horsemen, which seemed a bit of a fuss in Chen Fan's opinion.

I heard Rhodes say again: "Hmph, do you want us to hand over our people? Do you want our people to suffer? You are delusional!"

"How can you say that you are suffering?" Sora's voice was still slow, "I'm helping them to be happy!"

"!" Rod yelled.

"Father Shit, get out of here!"

"We don't welcome you here, fuck off!"

"Let's go. You're leaving!"

Hearing Rod's scolding, the others also responded.

After a long time, everyone stopped scolding, and Sora said, "I don't mind you, how can you understand the painstaking efforts of our Bishop Mande, and when his plan is truly realized, you will thank us!"

"Who will believe you, your earthly government has ruled over Maya for more than eighty years. The people of Maya have complained, is this the bitterness of your bishop?"

"To succeed in a great cause. You have to pay the same price in exchange. Sora said, "It's an equivalent exchange, it's like buying something, you know?"

"Hmph!" Rod scolded, "Why don't you sacrifice your followers?"

"If all of our congregants are dead, who will be in charge of the overall situation?"

"We will not hand over our people easily!" Rhodes was very resolute: "Even if I only have one breath, I will stay here!"

"Do you really want to be so desperate?" said Sora, "there are more than two thousand of your people, and we only want a hundred of you." You won't?"

"I won't let my people be pushed to hell so easily!"

"Hmph!" Sora sneered twice: "Originally, I didn't come to negotiate with you today, hoping that the problem between us could be resolved through negotiation, but you actually insisted on going your own way, so there was no way." We can only do the same as in previous years. ā€

"Come on, who's afraid of you?"

"That is, we will not be afraid of your underworld!"

"Get out of here!"

Everyone immediately roared.

Rod said, "You hear us, don't you hurry up and get out of here!"

"Huh!, a bunch of guys who don't know what to do. Sora scolded, "Then we'll see you in two days!" At the tournament, we will send three men to fight, and if we win the underworld, you will obediently hand over a hundred men to me. ā€

"If you lose, get me back to your holy city with your tail between your legs!" shouted Rod.

"Haha...... Sora let out a long laugh, "You're really ashamed." Can you three-legged cat kung fu win the right hand of my judgment?I remember last time your city lord died under my claws, right?"

"Monster!"

"Kill that monster!"

"Avenge Lord Fix!"

Everywhere immediately kills the sky.

"Get out of here!" said Rod, "in two days' time, I'll give you a taste of failure!"

"Haha...... I'll wait!" Sora smiled and left with a few of the followers, leaving with only a bunch of scolding on top of her as she left.

"It looks like the negotiation is over. Chen Fan said.

"It turned out that the prefecture wanted them to hand over their people. No wonder they hate the underworld so much. Zhao Ling said.

"And they seem to have some kind of jousting tournament every year. Chen Fan said: "It sounds like most of the Mira clan loses to the underworld every year!"

"Of course. Lin Luoran said nonchalantly: "Do you think that the Difu Shuangqi Lang is famous? You should have seen the strength of that Sola last time, right?"

"Then what do we do?" Zhao Ling said, "Sister Lin Luoran, you are so powerful, why don't you help them?"

"Of course not. Lin Luoran refused as always: "Although we have some festivals with the underworld, I have nothing to do with these people of the Mira clan, what are I doing for them?"

"I also think we shouldn't meddle in this. Chen Fan interjected.

"Why?" Zhao Ling was puzzled, because although Chen Fan was usually very obscene, he was quite willing to help others, but he actually stood on Lin Luoran's side, so he felt very annoyed.

"First of all. Lin Luoran's current strength has not recovered, and he may not be able to win the Difu Shuangqi. Chen Fan analyzed: "But this is only secondary, the more important thing is that if we wanted criminals help the Mila clan, those people in the underworld will use the excuse of 'harboring wanted criminals' as an excuse to justifiably carry out a large-scale attack on the Mila clan, and we will kill them instead." ā€

"So Zhao Ling. Lin Luoran said: "If you really help the Mira clan, we must leave quickly before we are here." ā€

Zhao Ling nodded slightly. It means "understood".

"Very well, then let's leave tonight!" Lin Luoran said.

"Let's get out of here tonight!" Although Lin Luoran looked helpless when he saw Zhao Ling's appearance, he didn't say anything since he agreed.

"What?" Chen Fan was puzzled. It's not because Chen Fan felt that leaving tonight was too hasty, but Lin Luoran used the word "leaving".

Although this is a bit of a play on words, in Chen Fan's view, they are in prison: the word "leave" is too casual, it feels like going to someone else's house as a guest, and when the time comes, they will go home.

Boldness of execution stems from superb skill. Chen Fan suddenly thought of an idiom.

"What are you surprised about?" asked Lin Luoran.

"I ...... Don't ...... "Chen Fan is speechless, you can't say that Lin Luoran used inappropriate words, right?"

After deciding to escape tonight, the three of them didn't say anything, Lin Luoran was closing his eyes to recuperate, Zhao Ling changed her clothes and wiped Chen Hong's body with a cloth. Of course, when he changed his clothes, he ordered Chen Fan not to peek, and Chen Fan walked around the cell, which showed that Chen Fan was relatively uncomposed.

At the end of the day, there was nothing special, but there were bursts of abuse of the underworld from above, and it seemed that the Mira family really hated the underworld.

At noon and in the evening, food was brought to them, and although it was not abundant, it was barely enough to eat. However, this made Chen Fan finally see the true face of the Mira clan, it turned out that they were really like what Zhao Ling said, except for the ears like cat ears, the rest were no different from humans, which made Chen Fan think about some strange questions such as "Are their ancestors a mixed breed of cats and people", "Should they be considered monsters or humans" and so on.

Chen Fan thought about these questions for a whole day but didn't get answers, after all, Chen Fan's knowledge was limited.

The day was not a long time, but it passed quickly, and it was now about twelve o'clock in the evening, and the three of them listened to the movement outside, and there was nothing else but the sound of the wind and the cries of insects, and it was believed that the people of the Mira clan had already slept.

"Hurry up and prepare, it's now. Lin Luoran ordered in a low voice.

Zhao Ling asked, "Sister Lin Luoran, do you have any escape plans?"

Lin Luoran replied briskly: "Do you have to plan to escape? ā€

"Then aren't we going to be villains?" Zhao Ling was helpless: "Big pervert, you are usually scheming, think about it, what doesn't cause a commotion." And a plan that allows us to escape. ā€

Chen Fan thought for a while and replied: "We all came in through the gate in front of the two mountains, and when I came in, I didn't have an escape route like the 'back door', and the wall was too high, it was impossible to climb over the wall, if you wanted to go." You have to run away from there. ā€

Zhao Ling said, "But there should be more people guarding there, right? How can we avoid their sight?"

Chen Fan said: "How do I know, it's the first time I've come here, I know everything and I won't become a god? ā€

"Is there no way around it?"

Lin Luoran said: "They all said that there is no need to be so troublesome, we will go out secretly, if someone appears, it will be convenient for us to kill him." ā€

"But what if there are too many people and we can't beat them?" Chen Fan asked.

"There must have been a way then. Lin Luoran said: "All in all, we don't want to be shown by them." ā€

There was nothing to be done at the moment, so the two had no choice but to acquiesce.

"Sister Lin Luoran, I have a request. Zhao Ling said.

"What?"

"My luggage was confiscated by them, I want to get my luggage back before we go, okay?"

"Not good. Lin Luoran didn't hesitate: "Of course, the shorter the route we escaped, the better. ā€

Zhao Ling pleaded, "But there are some things that are important to me. I can't live without them!"

"There's nothing left to get back to, but it's only one night to escape, and we can't afford to lose. ā€

"But...... But ......" Zhao Ling sobbed with tears in her eyes.

"Okay, Lin Luoran. Chen Fan said: "Let's help her get her props back!"

"No, it's too dangerous. ā€

"Although the things that Zhao Ling made are very unreliable, they are sometimes very useful, maybe there will be some magic weapons in her bag to help us escape instantly!

"Big, big pervert......" Zhao Ling looked at Chen Fan with wet eyes and saw Chen Fan speaking for himself. I don't know what to say for a while.

"Zhao Ling, is there really such a thing?" Lin Luoran asked.

"I think there should be!"

"Hmph! Let's get your props back before we leave. ā€

"Really!" Zhao Ling immediately burst into joy.

"Great, Zhao Ling!" Chen Fan said with a smile.

"Hmm!" Zhao Ling greeted Chen Fan with a smile, thinking: It turns out that the big pervert doesn't just bully others.

"But, Zhao Ling. Lin Luoran said again: "If you don't have a magic weapon in your bag to help us escape from here, you just wait to receive the punishment!"

Zhao Ling immediately covered her face and said, "I, I will do my best!"

"Alright. Lin Luoran continued: "Do you know where those props go?"

Zhao Ling replied: "I once eavesdropped on their conversation. I heard that there is a trophy room on the third floor here, so I think it must be there. ā€

"So we have to go up to the third floor first?" Chen Fan said.

"Hmm!" Zhao Ling nodded.

"Since it's okay, let's leave right away. Lin Luoran said, pulled out the fire sword, and made an opening on the wooden fence. walked out first, and the two followed suit.

As Zhao Ling said, the soldiers in charge of guarding the prison were very lazy, and it seemed that they had just finished drinking, and now they were not sleeping like humans, but they were just saying some dream words such as "hateful underworld, I won't let you go" and so on.

The three of them quietly climbed the stairs and came to the hall on the first floor of the Rigang Building. Lin Luoran looked around and whispered, "There is no one at the moment, let's continue to walk." "Then go in the direction of the stairs.

When the three of them came to the staircase, they suddenly heard the sound of footsteps going downstairs from above, and the three of them immediately hid behind the stairs, only to hear a man yawn and say: "The underworld is really hateful, every year is like this!"

The other man replied, "Well, every year we have to hand over a hundred people, and what we say about sending them to the goddess of the underworld to enjoy the blessings is all nonsense, only a fool would believe that Mande!"

The other laughed and replied, "Haha...... Because the cultists in the underworld are all stupid, so I believe him!"

"That's right! haha......"

They said as they walked away.

Chen Fan and the three of them walked out from behind the stairs, and Chen Fan said, "If we are not wanted, maybe we can help them, right?"

"Actually, they're not bad people. Zhao Ling said: "It's just that they were forced too badly by the underworld." I wish I could help them. ā€

"Don't say these boring words, there are so many injustices in the world, how can you help out?" Lin Luoran said coldly: "Let's go quickly!"

Chen Fan and Zhao Ling didn't snort, knowing that even if they sympathized, it was useless, and the current reality would not change, so they had to follow Lin Luoran up the stairs.

The three went up the stairs. When passing through the second floor, they did not encounter patrols, it is estimated that the Mira clan is to take the main strict defense system outside, the advantage of this system is that it is difficult for the enemy to enter from the outside, but the disadvantage is that the inside is lacking in troops, so Chen Fan and the three of them came to the third floor very smoothly, they were surprised to see that the pattern of each floor here is very similar, these inner corridors and outer corridors are connected by eight passages, the building is square, and each corner and each side has a passage. On either side of the passage are a number of rooms, and there are at least a dozen rooms on each floor.

Seeing this, Lin Luoran said, "Zhao Ling, do you know where that loot room is?"

Zhao Ling shook her head and said, "I don't know much about this. ā€

Lin Luoran said, "Then should we find each one?"

"No!" At this time, Chen Fan accosted: "If it is a room where the loot is stored, then there must be a guard guarding it, we just need to find the room guarded by a guard." ā€

Lin Luoran and Zhao Ling nodded in agreement, so they began to grope on the third layer.

The third floor is very troublesome to search, not because of the large area of this floor. Rather, there are eight passages on this floor that connect to the outer cloister, which is filled with soldiers. As long as the soldier turns back, the line of sight can go directly to the inner corridor through the passage, so the three of them must be especially careful when passing through the passage entrance, not only to pay attention to whether there is a line of sight, but also to worry about whether there are soldiers from the outside to the inside.

After about twenty minutes of fumbling, they finally found a room guarded by soldiers. The three of them hid around the corner, and saw two soldiers standing upright outside the door with spears in hand.

"Looks like this is it, how are we going to get in?" Zhao Ling said.

"Wouldn't it be enough to kill the two of them. Lin Luoran said.

Chen Fan said: "Lin Luoran, do you have the confidence to mess with them before they scream?"

"This ......," Lin Luoran said. Because if Lin Luoran could turn on the first mode, he could rely on the degree of lightning and flint to kill them within a second, but now it is impossible, I believe that Chen Fan also saw his own situation when he asked like this, Lin Luoran couldn't help but marvel in his heart that Chen Fan's mind was indeed meticulous.

"So what are we going to do?" Zhao Ling asked.

"Huh. Chen Fan suddenly smiled at Zhao Lingwei and said, "It's very simple!"

"What's so simple?" Zhao Ling saw Chen Fan's weird smile, and her goosebumps suddenly stood up.

"But before I implement this plan, Zhao Ling, I have to ask you a question. ā€

"What, what?" Zhao Ling had an ominous premonition.

"Are you going to get your duffel bag back anyway?"

"When, of course, you still need to ask, why don't we come here?"

"That's good. Chen Fan whispered in Zhao Ling's ear: "We can ...... like this"

"Ah......" said one of the soldiers watching the door, "why do we have to stay here? ā€

"That's it!" said another soldier, "why should we be allowed to suffer from these places where no one will come?"

"But man, I've heard that three Underworld cultists have been captured recently. ā€

"Of course I've heard about it, and I've heard that Lord Rhodes is going to take them hostage!"

"I'm not talking about this! I heard that two of the three underworld sect members are women, and they are very beautiful!"

"Really?"

"Of course, I listened to the fat men in the prison cell, they are really unusually beautiful!"

"Alas...... That fat man is really blessed, he can actually face the beauty day and night, how can we only face these so-called trophies that can't speak, and we can't eat or take it, it's true. ā€

"That's it!"

At this moment, a very seductive girl's voice came from around the corner: "Two soldier brothers, look here!"

The two soldiers looked at the source of the sound in unison, and saw a smooth, white leg sticking out from the corner, swinging rhythmically up and down, as soft as a ribbon.

"Who are you?" the two soldiers said as they walked towards the beautiful leg, and then another smooth arm stretched out, gently stroking the thin leg back and forth, and the girl's voice sounded again: "It's really hard for you to keep vigil here, come here, let me comfort you with my body!"

"Huh...... Really, then we might as well be respectful!" the two soldiers were already intoxicated by that gentle and beautiful leg.

"Ah......" said the girl, "come quickly!

"Okay! We're coming! Don't go!" the two soldiers stared at the leg and came to the corner, and when they were about to look up at the owner of the beautiful leg, they felt a sharp pain in the back of their heads, and then they fell unconscious.

"It's useless. Lin Luoran looked at the fainted two soldiers and said disdainfully, "Are all the people here like this?"

Zhao Ling kicked the two soldiers and scolded in a low voice: "Pervert No. 2 and No. 3, deserve it!"

Chen Fan squinted at Zhao Ling and said, "Hey, stinky girl, who is the pervert No. 1?"

"Of course it's you, you actually came up with this kind of trick, what are you not a pervert?

"If it weren't for the plan I came up with, could I have messed them up so easily?"

Zhao Ling ignored Chen Fan and said to herself worriedly: "If this matter spreads and says that I have seduced a man, I don't know if anyone is willing to marry me!"

Chen Fan smiled: "If no one wants you, I will reluctantly take you in, an old woman!"

"Hmph!" Zhao Ling grimaced: "I'd rather die than ask you to take me in!"

"Don't make any noise. Lin Luoran said: "Let's go in quickly, it's not good for the two of them to wake up." ā€

"Okay!" the two responded and followed Lin Luoran into the room together.

This room is not big, only about a dozen square meters, but it is full of gold and silver treasures, and there are many skins, horns and bones of fierce beasts, and many sharp and beautiful weapons.

"Wow!" Chen Fan looked at the gold coins on the ground, and his eyes seemed to have turned into gold coins, because since he was born, Chen Fan had really never seen such an exaggerated mountain of gold coins, and if he took them all back, he would definitely become a rich man.

"Great. Zhao Ling shouted: "My backpack is really here!"

"Since you find me, let's leave!" Lin Luoran turned around and left.

"Lin Luoran, wait a minute!" Chen Fan shouted: "There are so many gold, silver and jewelry here, why don't we take some back!"

"Of course not. Zhao Ling picked up her duffel bag and said, "Grandpa said you can't be a thief!"

"I'm not interested in these things, and I just hold us back. Lin Luoran said coldly: "Also, you immediately put down all the things in your hands, clothes, pants and shoes!"

"Yes" Chen Fan replied helplessly, took out all the gold coins and some gold ornaments on his body, and said to Lin Luoran

"No more. ā€

"No?" Lin Luoran squinted at Chen Fan: "What are those in your underwear?"

"I—I just don't remember. Chen Fan reluctantly took the two gold coins out of his pants, and was indignant in his heart: Damn, how did this guy Lin Luoran know that there was something in my underwear?

"Alright, let's go!" Lin Luoran said, walking towards the door. (To be continued......)
