Chapter 251: White Old Monster (4)

"That's it for the development of the dynasty in the past few decades. It was only after my grandfather died that I left the mountain village and came to this imperial city. ”

Probably because this Bai Ningtian was also a poor person who was burdened by the disaster of the Eight Gates back then, and it was also Bai Pianpian's grandfather and Mu Chen's elder. Therefore, after Mu Chen knew Bai Ningtian's identity, he couldn't help but have a kind of sympathy.

When they were in Qingxiangfang, it was this kind of kindness that made Mu Chen and Bai Pianpian intersect.

Therefore, Mu Chen told all the general things in the past few decades, as well as his own experience. It's just hiding his abilities.

After Bai Ningtian heard this, he sighed, "Hey." Back then, my eight great families of Ji, Bai, Ban, Fan, Mu, Xiahou, Helian, and Huangpu were so heroic, but now, those old friends are estimated to be dead and scattered. Your Mu family is the only one left in you, and my Bai family, except for the girl and me, is estimated to have been killed. ”

"Mu family boy, listen to what you mean, are you going to lurk in the Dazhi Imperial Court, and then wait for an opportunity to take revenge?"

Mu Chen nodded: "It's this country that has ruined my family." It's just that my strength is too weak, so I want to become stronger, I need power and strength, and when I continue to have enough strength, I will overthrow this dynasty!"

"Since ancient times, it is good to practice among the six gates, and there is nothing wrong with your thoughts, but you have to be careful yourself, once someone finds out your identity, you will be in danger. ”

"Well, I know. ”

"By the way, seeing that you are now imprisoned in this dungeon, and you are still here to bring me food, so it seems that you have offended some people - this is purely trying to kill you!"

Bai Ningtian sneered, and then said: "Back then, my eight great families made contributions to Li Gan's old dog, which can be said to have laid down half of the country. But after the old dog sat on the throne, he crossed the river and demolished the bridge to attack us. My children, my family, were destroyed by the old dog's army. It's just that because I have an important secret hidden in my body, the old dog is reluctant to kill me, but imprisons me here. Therefore, in this dungeon, I will kill people when I see them, kill one by one, kill two to make a pair, and talk about the hatred in my heart. ”

"You have been victimized by a traitor now, but there is a way back?"

"I have a few friends, they will definitely find a way to rescue me after they know the news that I have been pressed into the prison, but you, senior, you have been imprisoned here for so many years, don't you want to go out?"

Bai Ningtian sighed, gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't I want to go out?" I don't want to escape from this ghost place all the time day and night. However, my whole body was bound by iron chains made of fine iron, and I was wearing an iron ball with a burden of 500 pounds, and the shoulder blades of both shoulders were penetrated, and I could not exert force above my waist. These big lackeys only give me a steamed bun every three days, so that I can barely hang a life. If it weren't for my advanced martial arts cultivation, I'm afraid I would have starved to death in this dungeon long ago. How do I escape?"

Mu Chen said tentatively, "Maybe, I can help you?"

Bai Ningtian's eyes lit up, but then dimmed: "Boy, I understand your kindness." But the chains made of fine iron could not be cut by a combination of knives and axes, and they were all welded to death—even if you could untie them, and the iron door in front of them. If that iron gate was in my heyday, it wouldn't be difficult to break it, but I'm in a sluggish state now, and my strength doesn't exist in ten, how can I forget it. The old man's greatest wish now is to have a full meal and smell the mellow aroma of the wine. I'm not afraid of your kid's jokes, I haven't dipped in oil and water for more than ten years. ”

Mu Chen was embarrassed, although he didn't know what kind of strength Bai Ningtian was, but from the latter's tiger style that he could still kick hundreds of catties of iron balls after being imprisoned for more than ten years in such a bad way, it could be seen that Bai Ningtian's strength must be extraordinary. Even in its heyday, it was probably the strongest of all the people Mu Chen had ever seen.

But such a strong man, whose greatest wish is just to eat a full meal?

What made Mu Chen even more curious was that since the reign of Emperor Qian, Bai Ningtian was imprisoned here, enduring loneliness, hunger and loneliness every day. The reason for everything, is it all for that secret?

Mu Chen sighed, thought about it, and was about to take out the two bottles of wine from the ring to satisfy Bai Ningtian's hunger, but at this time, the iron door in the passage suddenly sounded, accompanied by an angry voice.

"You two idiots, hurry up and open the door for me! If something happens to Captain Mu, you will be the one who will deliver food to Old Monster Bai next time!"

Outside the iron gate, Jin Jun roared angrily, and then Mu Chen saw the one-meter-thick iron door creak open, and then a guard probed his brain and walked into the passage with caution, and then shouted tentatively: "Captain Mu, are you still there?"

This guard was one of the two guards before, but this person's attitude was very different at this time. Mu Chen suddenly realized in his heart that his own affairs should have been solved, but he didn't know whether it was Li Yang or Princess Xuan who helped Lu Dao?

"Senior, I guess I'm leaving, don't worry, I will definitely come back to save you!" After figuring out the joint, Mu Chen turned his head and whispered to Bai Ningtian.

Bai Ningtian smiled bitterly, "Boy, if you have the heart, I will be grateful if you bring me something delicious." As for saving me from the Devil."

Bai Ningtian shook his head, not believing that Mu Chen had that ability at all.

Mu Chen didn't say much. He knew that after staying in this dark dungeon for more than ten years, he had already worn out the heart of Bai Ningtian, a strong man. Shaking his head, Mu Chen walked towards the passage: "I'm here." You're finally back. ”

Mu Chen walked out of the prison where Bai Ningtian was imprisoned, and then saw that outside the iron gate, in addition to the two prison guards, there was also a big man with a meaty face and a beard.

Mu Chen knew that this big man was the warden of this heavenly prison, that is, the head of the cell, Jinjun. However, at this moment, this Jinjun looked at herself blankly, especially after seeing Mu Chen come out intact, her eyes were even more relieved.

Mu Chen's eyes turned, took Jinyu's expression into his eyes, sneered, looked at the two prison guards and said, "Both, you made me wait for a while." ”

The two guards showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, and said embarrassedly: "Captain Mu, just now the two of us had a stomachache, and I really couldn't help but go to the toilet, I'm really sorry for you." ”

Mu Chen snorted coldly, but his guess was confirmed in his heart because of the reactions of these two people. It seems that his "suspicion" is indeed clear. Otherwise, the attitudes of these people would not be very different.

It's just that Mu Chen is strange, even if he is not a suspect now, and the suspicion is cleared, the cell head and prison guards of this prison will not be so attentive to him, right?

"Captain Mu, a father-in-law came to the palace just now, and he has already cleared your suspicions. I'll just say, you're so young and promising, how can you be a thief who steals the inner library. Jinjun took over the conversation and said with a smile.

Mu Chen smiled slightly and said, "Then, Lord Jin, I should be able to leave the prison now." ”

Jin Yu's face was embarrassed: "I'm really sorry for this, my father-in-law also brought the meaning of His Majesty, I want you to stay in the prison for a while longer, so I'm afraid you can't leave?"

Mu Chen frowned: "What do you mean? Since my suspicion has been cleared, why can't I leave?"

Jin Yu said: "Captain Mu, this is the holy will, and we can't disobey it, so I can only grieve you to stay here for a while longer." However, according to the meaning revealed by the father-in-law, it seems that His Majesty attaches great importance to you and wants you to exercise in the prison?"

"Exercise?" Mu Chen narrowed his eyes, thinking about the meaning of the word.

Listening to the information revealed in Jinjun's words, it seems that his imprisonment alarmed Li Zheng, and the latter also personally sent the palace eunuchs to clear his suspicions. It's just that why does Li Zheng still stay in the prison by himself to "exercise"?

Mu Chen couldn't figure it out after thinking about it, so he simply put it behind him, looked at Jin Yu with a sneer and asked: "Lord Jin, I really want to know how this prison works, and it's just a matter of imprisoning me, a suspect at best, in the dungeon, and even asking me to deliver food to the madman inside! If it weren't for my fate, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get out of this iron gate today." I also hope that Lord Jin can give me an explanation for this matter. ”

Jin Jun wiped the cold sweat from his head, and hurriedly said: "Misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding! Captain Mu, the people below are not doing well, I will definitely punish them heavily, you can dissipate your anger! I will arrange for you to go to the ground and arrange a special cell for you to be used by the emperor's relatives and relatives!"

The Heavenly Prison, as a prison under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court, not only held important and dangerous prisoners, but also imprisoned some imperial relatives who had committed crimes. However, these royal relatives are different from ordinary prisoners, although they are also imprisoned in prison, but except for the lack of freedom, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the same as outside, and there are even maids and maids to be called. Compared with the other prisoners, these royal relatives almost came to vacation.

And Jinjun wanted to expose the matter even if it was to break the rules in order to let Mu Chen stop mentioning the incident just now.

But how could Mu Chen let him get his wish?

"Lord Jin, I understand what you said, but as a 'heinous criminal', I am still locked up in a dungeon. It's just that, Lord Jin, I want to know one thing. ”

Jin Yu's face was bitter, "Captain Mu, what do you want to know?"

A cold color flashed in Mu Chen's eyes, and then he said in a deep voice: "Who instructed you, or rather, the person who wants to kill me, who is it!"
