Chapter 397: Prison Disaster (1)
……
In the evening, a light rain suddenly fell in the sky.
At that moment, a man carrying a basket sneakily arrived at the prison where the prisoners were kept.
He is the man who eavesdropped outside Jinxuan Building during the day - Ah Cai.
Ah Cai spent five taels of silver to buy off the jailer, and when he entered the prison, a sour smell came to his nose, he couldn't help frowning, and subconsciously held his breath, and the squeaky of rats came from time to time in the dark corner.
Is this where people live?
The jailer took out a bunch of keys from his waist, and with a "click", the cell door opened, and a man curled up in a dark and damp corner, and he shouted inside: "Prisoner Wu Xiang, someone has come to see you." ”
The sound fell, and the man in the dark corner moved.
As soon as the jailer finished speaking, he said to Ah Cai again: "You have to talk about things quickly, but don't make us embarrassed." ”
Ah Cai nodded and agreed, "Okay, I see." ”
The jailer departed.
Ah Cai bent down and entered the prison, the vision inside was very dark, and he vaguely saw a figure floating, he walked inside, lifted the silk cloth covered by the basket, came to the man, squatted down, took out two plates of side dishes and a bowl of rice from the basket and put them on the ground, and said: "Shopkeeper, I came to see you, and I specially prepared a little food for you, you can eat quickly!" ”
Wu Xiang was imprisoned for only a short day, but his appearance seemed to have changed, his messy hair was full of straw, and the clothes he was wearing before had become tattered, like a beggar, his hair covered his eyes, and he saw a pair of black eyes looking at him in a daze.
Looking at such a down-and-out shopkeeper, and the high-spirited appearance before, Ah Cai was very sad in his heart, and choked up in his throat: "Shopkeeper, are you doing well here?" ”
Although Wu Xiang looked down-and-out, he always maintained an arrogant appearance, and he sneered: "How good can I be like this?" After speaking, he seemed to have just come back to his senses and said, "Hey, why are you here, didn't you tell you to keep an eye on Jinxuan Tower?" How's the Jinxuan Building now? ”
"Shopkeeper, Fuzhen Building has been seized, and you are all like this, what do you still care about Jinxuan Building?" Ah Cai said incomprehensibly, and then as if he remembered something, his eyes widened, and he said, "Oh, by the way, the shopkeeper, I came here today to tell you a secret." ”
Wu Xiang became interested, "Oh? What's the secret? "Secrets or something, he likes to hear it the most.
Ah Cai leaned over to his ear, and said for a long time with his mouth closed, after Wu Xiang heard this, his gloomy face swept away, the corners of his mouth slowly rose, patted Ah Cai's shoulder, and praised: "Ah Cai, I really didn't misunderstand you, your secret came in time, I know what to do, you just wait for my good news!" ”
After listening to the shopkeeper's praise, Ah Cai's heart was as sweet as eating honey, and said, "Hey, the shopkeeper, you should eat quickly!" This meal is freshly cooked, you should eat it while it is hot, otherwise it will not taste good when it is cold. ”
The food in the prison is either cold steamed buns or leftovers eaten by others, it is very unpalatable, for Wu Xiang, who is accustomed to eating big fish and meat every day, those things are not eaten by dogs, he naturally can't touch them, and when he sees fresh meals, he naturally devours them.
Not long after, all the meals were eaten by Wu Xiang, and when the time for the prison visit came, under the supervision of the jailer, Ah Cai left the prison with a basket.
The drizzle faded, and a conspiracy ensued.
