Chapter 427: Old Palace Master
The water prison is not big, inside and out, there are only dozens of cells in total.
Ma Changsheng has never walked here, after all, the environment here is too bad, how can ordinary people come here without anything? So in his memory, Tang Feng couldn't find the innermost information, only the person who delivered food every day would go through the entire water prison.
But to Tang Feng's disappointment, even if he walked here, he still found no trace of the old palace master.
Could it be that he wasn't detained in a water prison by Ying? Or that the old palace master had already died, and the message conveyed by the three envoys of the Oolong was fake?
Frowning and looking around, he didn't find anything useful, and just as Tang Feng was disappointed and wanted to return, there was a sudden sound of rushing water under his feet.
Tang Feng's ears moved, and he hurriedly leaned down and listened carefully. There was indeed a sound of water under the feet, and strange to say, the bottom of the water dungeon was a little higher than the rest of the place, so there was no stagnant water here.
Shaking the torch and searching carefully, Tang Feng suddenly found a circular pull ring on the ground.
It turned out that the mechanism was under his feet, Tang Feng's heart was excited, the light here was too dim, and the environment was quite bad, he only cared about looking around, and he completely forgot the area under his feet.
Squatting down, reaching out to hold the ring, with a slight force, a clicking sound came from the side, Tang Feng turned his head to look over there, and found that the originally flat ground revealed a big black and silent hole.
Walking to the big hole with a torch, Tang Feng found that it was just a staircase that spread down, but the turbid water had already submerged most of the stairs, and he looked inside, "This is like a water disaster."
I felt it carefully, and I didn't feel any traces of life in it.
Tang Feng frowned, and it was a little difficult to choose for a while. If the old palace master is still alive, it is very likely that he will be imprisoned here" But under his own perception, there is no one inside, so Tang Feng doesn't know if he should go down to find out.
After a moment of silence, Tang Feng resolutely held the torch and walked down.
If you don't take a look at it with your own eyes, Tang Feng is really a little uncomfortable, "After all, the whereabouts of the old palace master are related to all their plans, so Tang Feng must go all out, and at this time, he can't care about the question of whether he is dirty or not."
The water at the bottom was much deeper than the one above, and Tang Feng hadn't finished the stairs yet, the water had already reached the base of his thighs, and he continued to walk down, waiting for the water to reach his waist, and the whole staircase was finished.
With the faint light of the torches, Tang Feng's eyesight could only spy on the range of two zhang in a radius, "Fortunately, the water damage is not big, it can even be said to be small."
Carefully inspecting every inch of the water damage, it was not until Tang Feng walked to the last corner that the pace of movement suddenly stopped, the torch held high kept jumping, and Tang Feng's face showed a look of horror, "His eyes narrowed, staring closely at a monster in front of him."
It's a bit too much to say that he is a monster, because he is a person at all, but this person's situation at the moment can no longer be described in a tragic word.
His long hair was draped and "his head hung down, and his long hair fell straight down the stagnant water, fluttering up and down with the ripples brought by Tang Feng's movements." His whole body was fixed on a wall in this corner, thin skin and bones, he was half a head taller than Tang Feng, and his skeleton was very large, "If it were a normal situation, this person should be a burly type, but at this moment" the bones on his body are as jagged and abrupt as rocks, and his skin is showing an unhealthy and miserable white" It is estimated that he has been soaking in the water for too long, and his body is even more swollen.
His two shoulder blades were pierced by a pair of iron hooks extending from the wall, and the thick iron chains passed through his lute bones and held him firmly to the wall.
It is estimated that the sound of Tang Feng walking alarmed him, he suddenly raised his head slowly, but the eyes on his pale face were blazing, Tang Feng couldn't help but be a little shocked.
These eyes...... How aggressive, domineering, and arrogant, even if the person in front of him has been tortured miserably, but these eyes do not have the slightest taste of submission and admitting defeat.
Tang Feng settled his mind and tentatively asked, "Old Palace Master?"
On the other side, Hua Yi's skinny cheeks showed a mocking smile, and he said in a hoarse and weak voice: "I haven't heard this title for a long time, are you Xie Xuechen's subordinate?"
His voice was unpleasant, as if two pieces of pig iron were rubbing.
Tang Feng shook his head slowly, but the stone in his heart finally fell. He didn't expect that he would find the whereabouts of the old palace master so easily, but if he thought about it carefully, if he didn't have the ability to confuse the truth, no matter how strong his strength was, it would not be easy for him.
"Who are you?" asked the old palace master in that hoarse voice.
"It doesn't matter who I am. It was Tang Feixiao and Broken Seven Feet, they asked me to look for you. Tang Feng said as he walked towards him.
The old palace master raised the corners of his mouth, and laughed: "Two little rabbit cubs, it's not in vain that I raised them." ”
As soon as the words fell, he suddenly opened his mouth and spit at Tang Feng, and a sharp water arrow shot out of his mouth, and it was nailed to Tang Feng's chest in an instant.
Tang Feng was like being devoured by thunder, there was a sharp pain in his chest, and the whole person seemed to have been hit by a sledgehammer, and he flew out upside down on his back and fell directly into the water.
A sneer appeared on the corner of the old palace master's mouth, and he mocked: "Xie Xuechen, you are still a little tender when you fight with me." ”
With a bang, Tang Feng came out of the water, rubbed his chest vigorously, glared at the old palace master, and looked at the other party, but a look of surprise appeared on his withered face.
In a short period of time, Tang Feng also knew why he suddenly poisoned himself.
"Do you suspect that I was sent by Xie Xuechen?" Tang Feng stretched out his hand to take the torch that fell from the sky, full of depression.
If someone else attacked him like this, he would definitely fight back, but this person is different, he is the old palace master, the person who raised Uncle Daxiao and Uncle Duan, and the grandfather of Concubine Xiaoya, so despite the anger in his heart, Tang Feng still suppressed it.
"You're not dead?" The old palace master looked Tang Feng up and down, and the sunlight was fixed on him. Above.
Tang Feng didn't bother to entangle with him about this kind of thing, the blow just now was huge, it was not at all like this kind of old man who was about to die, and he hadn't made a move yet, he just spit out a water arrow with his mouth, you can imagine how much damage the thin body could burst out if he really moved his hand.
"Believe it or not, I am here this time mainly to find out your whereabouts, Tang Feixiao, Broken Seven Feet, Xiao Yiye and Concubine Xiaoya They are going to prepare to launch a total against Xie Xuechen, so we must find out your whereabouts. My mission has been completed, you wait here for a while, they will come to rescue you after killing Xie Xuechen. After Tang Feng finished speaking, he didn't wait for him to react again, and walked back and forth on the road with a torch.
In case this old man hit his head a few more times, Tang Fenger was not sure that he would be able to dodge, in this ghost place, the action was too irresponsible.
waited until Tang Feng left, and the old palace master didn't say a word, and after a long time, he laughed evilly, and muttered: "Xie Xuechen, the old man will definitely unscrew your head as a urinal!"
Walking out of the way, and closing the entrance of the water disaster, Tang Feng rubbed his chest vigorously, not to mention how depressed he was.
Walking to the water prison and taking a look at it from a distance, the torturer was still lying on the table and falling asleep, Tang Feng shook his head, and was about to walk over and pretend to be asleep, but suddenly a person shouted from the cell on the left hand: "This friend, please wait." ”
The voice was very weak, it was a man's voice, and Tang Feng suddenly remembered that there were only three people in the entire water prison, except for the old palace master, there were only three people in total, the former sect master of the Heavenly Punishment Sect and a man and a woman who didn't know the origin.
The person who called him at this moment was that man. When he went inside to look for the old palace master just now, Tang Feng took a torch to shine on their cell, and at that time, the two were curled up together, snuggling up in the corner of the wall to keep warm, looking very miserable.
Although he sympathized with this man and woman in his heart, Tang Feng didn't dare to make any extraneous branches, anyway, it wouldn't be long before Tang Feixiao and them could take Daixue Palace, and then these people would naturally be released.
"This friend stays!" Seeing that Tang Feng didn't have the idea of listening, the man shouted again, this time his voice was much more urgent than just now, and there was a faint feeling of pleading.
Tang Feng sighed, stopped his pace, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
This man looks much better than the old palace master, but he is also similar to the former sect master of today's punishment sect, he is like this, you can imagine what that woman will be.
"Can you find me some medicine for typhoid fever?" The man's gaze should have been arrogant, but at this moment, the situation forced him to lower his arrogant head.
"Say you're sick?" Tang Feng asked, looking at his pale face.
The man shook his head slowly, and glanced back, his eyes were full of heavy tenderness and sweetness: "It's my wife, please save her life." ”
The people who are imprisoned here, all their strength has been abolished by Xie Xuechen, although their physical fitness is very good, but they are no longer the masters who were admired by others, living in this environment for many years, it is inevitable that they will get sick, they used to rely on their physical fitness to resist the past, but this time, the woman's condition is getting more and more serious, as if on the verge of death.
It's just that the environment in this water prison is bad, and the man can't find anyone to help, so he finally waited for Tang Feng to come once, so he had to ask for help.
