A thousand mysteries
After the blood cloak was changed into a looser eunuch costume, the emperor took her, the princess, and a team of royal guards to the heavenly prison.
"There's something in this prison. The blood cloak followed the emperor all the way, and after entering the prison, her eyes narrowed slightly, the layout here has exceeded the ordinary means of imprisoning prisoners by relying on the real world (in fact, it is a physical factor), and it has some other measures, but it has not been activated, so she can't say it, but she is just faintly aware of a clue with her sensitive perception.
"Thank you for the compliment. Wang Gonggong said with some joy, although this prison was not built by him, but he also made some efforts to transform, and he was praised by a great master in the martial arts who did not know the origin, and it was also an honor at this time.
"Your Majesty, two guards and a traitor are all taken in here, and it is confirmed that they cannot escape. The two men did not take the execution, and they did not confess anything, so they did not get any useful information, and the traitor confessed after we had tortured her, and the testimony is here. "The prison guard in charge of the three has been waiting here for a long time, and he can't get out of the prison, so he can only wait here.
"Oh. The emperor said a word without being salty, took the testimony and flipped through it casually, handed it to the prince-in-law, who pretended to flip through it, handed it to the blood cloak, and the blood cloak turned a few pages casually, frowned, and did not speak.
The content of the man's explanation is basically illogical, although the questions that should be answered are answered, which is similar to what the prince relayed, but some things do not stand up to scrutiny.
"Take us over there, I'm going to visit them. Without hesitation, the emperor gave the order to let the prison guards lead the way.
"This ...... Your Majesty, I can't help it, even if the measures in this prison are thoughtful, there are always some prisoners who have unexpected means to do something, this kind of thing has happened before, you must not take risks, in case you hurt the dragon body, it will be difficult for your subordinates to atone for their deaths. The prison guard's body trembled, he was afraid, he was not afraid of 10,000, he was afraid of what happened, if something happened, he didn't care if the emperor would have anything to do, anyway, he was finished.
"It's okay, I trust you, lead the way. "How could the emperor listen to him, if he just retreated casually, just find a turtle shell to drill inside?
The prison guard could only lead the way, and he didn't dare to argue more, so he could only secretly pray in his heart that nothing would happen, and pray to the gods that if he could pass smoothly today, he would let people bring the words back, and burn incense at home every day.
What they were going to was the first-order cell in the Heavenly Dungeon, that is, a place for guys whose overall strength was not too high and whose level of danger was average. Because the prisoners in the prison are some relatively special prisoners, the cells are all closed single rooms, although there are some vents, but there are not many, and it is not enough for some people to do things.
The walls of such a cell are made of obsidian, and its characteristic is that it absorbs internal forces, and it is sturdy, especially solid, and it is also a very tricky problem for martial arts masters who do not have weapons in their hands to break through such walls.
"This is it, that's where the prisoner is being held. The guard stopped, opened the lock, then opened the door, pointed inside, and continued: "She was reluctant to say at first, we have done some tricks, she should know it now, what do you want to know, she should be obedient to explain." ”
The emperor just wanted to go in, but he was dragged by the wrist of the blood cloak, and then he hugged his waist and gently retreated a few steps to avoid several tiny poisonous needles that shot straight out of it.
This shocking change was undoubtedly a slap in the face of the prison guard, and he didn't have time to care if his face hurt or not, so he closed the door directly, knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, the emperor forgives you...... The subordinates didn't know that she still had this kind of means, and she was quite well-behaved during the previous interrogation, and there was no resistance. ”
Of course, he knew why, some prisoners didn't necessarily want to die with the jailers, because they couldn't escape, and if they did something or something, they would die. But they must be willing to drag the emperor to die together, so that their death will not be worthless. But knowing the reason is knowing the reason, he can't persuade the emperor, so it is understandable that such a situation will occur, of course, it has something to do with their poor search, but this relationship is very aggrieved. There has never been a shortage of strange people in this world, and their methods are also strange and varied, how can they all be found out?
The prince was also in a cold sweat next to him, he stood behind the emperor's side, not affected by this wave of poisonous needles, but the thrilling degree was no less than his own escape from death, if the emperor had an accident, he couldn't forgive himself, fortunately, this guy reacted quickly, although it was a bit incredible, but it was a good thing anyway.
"You ......" The emperor's face was slightly red, and he broke free from the arms of the blood cloak in some panic. Of course, it was not only the panic because of the unexpected situation just now, but also the discovery of his own secret and the discovery of the secret of the blood cloak. The soft touch of the back just now, of course, is the girl's chest and not the man's chest muscles, and she is also a girl? I can't see it, but in this case, I don't have to worry about being taken advantage of, it's just ...... She also discovered her identity, right? What should she do, she can be sent to protect herself, after all, she has something to do with Jun Yishen, she can't kill directly, and someone else saved herself......
Yes, the moment the blood cloak grabbed her wrist, she knew that things were going to be bad, and the martial arts master might not be able to discover her identity in this situation, but it was extremely unlikely, especially since her perception was still very keen.
"Yes, I'm here. The blood cloak said very gently, but the voice was still the same voice, and it was impossible to distinguish between men and women. She now finally understood why the guy had warned her not to eavesdrop, the secret was tricky.
"I'll leave this matter to you, and you'll see if you can find anything. The emperor dropped this sentence and shook off his hand as the shopkeeper, stepped back, leaning against the wall in a daze. Does this guy mean to keep it a secret from each other? Otherwise, it wouldn't have been that answer.
"Understood. The cloak of blood agreed, then kicked the guard, and said, "Get up, go and ask someone to block the road that leads here, and we are not allowed to let our guard down before we go, let alone approach without permission, do you hear me?" ”
"Yes, sir. "The prison guard even got up to do this, and the emperor handed it all over to this lord to deal with, how dare he slack off, if he doesn't behave well, he will really die.
The Cloak of Blood opened the door, quickly entered, closed the door, and was done in one go.
Inside was a small space, with black walls, no lights, and although there was a dilapidated wooden bed and a futon, it was probably useless in this dark place, right? A slightly miserable woman cowered in the corner facing the door, with a bleak smile on her face and a look of madness in her eyes.
"Why, why do you want to do this to me, I just want to live a good life, why do you keep persecuting me! I am forced, I can't help it, I don't want to do this, you let me go, let me go. The woman cried out miserably, looking rather pitiful and helpless.
Unfortunately, the blood cloak didn't seem to mean pity: "Enough, no need to pretend." ”
"I just want to protect my child, my husband, he's just an honest and honest peasant man, he doesn't know anything, he doesn't understand, why do you do this to him, what did I do wrong? No, I didn't do anything, nothing wrong! You will definitely go to hell like this, there is hell, there is a Yama lord, there is a judge, you will definitely not end well......" The woman continued to shout.
The blood cloak just walked over and grabbed her by the collar and slapped her in the face, a very heavy slap, and the woman who hit her screamed and struggled even more frantically, as if she wanted to scratch the blood cloak with her fingernails......
Who is the blood cloak, how could she be so easy to get her hands on? The hand quickly pointed her point, temporarily dislocated her limbs and jaw, disposed of the poisonous needles in her fingernails, and then began to undress, of course, it was to take off the woman's clothes, and then unsurprisingly found a long stitch mark on the woman's lower back, the trace was very good, if you don't look closely, it looks like a healed wound, but it's not.
The blood cloak tried to be opened, but found that the human skin seemed to be tightly bonded to the original skin, as if two layers of human skin had been combined into one, and it was no wonder that the jailers did not find it.
"Now you can talk properly, right?" Blood Cloak gave up on peeling, looked at her mouth, and after making sure there was no poison, fed her a pill, restored her jaw, and began to chat with her.
"Who are you?" she knew that there was no point in pretending to be crazy and stupid, this person was very sophisticated, and she was afraid that she was also a peer, right?
"It's none of your business, let's say, who made these?" the Blood Cloak pointed at the poison needle, and her face.
"What do you think?" the woman asked rhetorically.
"It's a thousand faces, except for the undisciplined fox, everyone will always do this kind of thing, and they will help King Ning. The blood cloak put its hand on the woman's dantian and injected internal force, as if it was going to destroy her dantian.
"Hehe, there are a lot of people in the rivers and lakes who know this, don't look down on me, my soul is faint!" The woman smiled a little bleakly, is this person the old enemy of Qianmian? But it doesn't make sense, the poison needle is her own ingenuity, and it has nothing to do with Qianmian, how did she find out?
"Really?" the Blood Cloak approached her, meeting her eye for purpose, his hands moving, and after a long moment he said, "Tell me, you know something." ”
The woman's eyes were a little confused and said: "I only know that I was called over by a thousand faces, and he gave me a task to play this role, if possible, to assassinate some important people, but I was caught before I could start the task, which is also part of the plan, because the emperor may come to see me, although it is only possible, but that is also the last thing I can do, so I want to assassinate the emperor." ”
"Human skin camouflage or something is made of a thousand faces, right?" the Blood Cloak asked.
"Yes, only he can do it so perfectly, as if I was like this, he said he could help me remove it afterwards, but unfortunately I didn't have that afterwards. The woman replied subconsciously.
"Is there anyone else worth noting around King Ning?" the Blood Cloak continued to ask.
"There's also the so-called mysterious Gongyu, his research is very powerful, and even a thousand faces praise him, but I don't know what it is, it seems to be a puppet-like thing, and I don't know how powerful it is. "The woman continues to be a traitor.
"What else?" The blood cloak frowned, that should refer to the poisonous man, right? But is the mystery originally a public loss peace? That's not a cause for concern, a genius who has gone astray, even if he was once called a mystery machine, will not have much future, after all, the road is getting narrower and narrower, if he can break through and become a master of the mechanism, it's a pity that he is far behind.
"Then there are the people of the Demon Dao, they seem to value King Ning very much, and there are quite a lot of masters sent, who seem to want to kill the emperor and regain the lost face. The woman's answer this time made the blood cloak's brows furrow even tighter, I'm afraid the purpose of the demon path is not so simple.
"Where are their dens, do you know where they are?" the Blood Cloak continued.
It's a pity that this guy doesn't know anything about the next question, and it doesn't seem to be an important thing.
The blood cloak relieved the hypnosis, stood up and wanted to leave, but felt something strange behind him, turned slightly sideways to avoid the blood she spurted, and said without looking back: "I know that the blood is poisonous, but if you want to kill me, it is impossible." Then he left the cell.
"How is it? What have you gained?" the prince hurriedly came over and asked, the prison guard was also full of expectation, if this guy made a meritorious service, the emperor was in a good mood, maybe he would not be held accountable.
"Do you want to go to the two guards and ask? I can say in advance, if I use means, I may not be able to ask anything, but they must not live for five days, just like the one inside, be careful when dealing with it, her blood is now poisonous, she may not live for three days?"
"Go ahead, they have never regarded me as a relative, they hate me, they hate my origin, I don't have to be soft on them anymore, do what you want. The emperor waved his hand and motioned for the prison guard to take her, and he was still waiting here.
"In this case, then I'll help you collect an interest first. The blood cloak smiled, it seems that the emperor who is "bound to become a big weapon" in the mouth of the young lady is also in a period of confusion at this time, just enough to brush up on some favors, and find her to do things in the future.
Yes, in fact, Shangguan Yi didn't ask the blood cloak to protect the emperor, and the blood cloak himself would do it, because this was the investment of the young lady, starting from the sword of the Son of Heaven, to some things later, it was. It is impossible for pies to fall from the sky, and the emperor will naturally repay them when he gets benefits, as for what form of return, it depends on the future creation.
So, the blood cloak is actually very black.
