With a loud "bang", Gao Baichuan reached out and slapped the iron table in front of him, raising a large cloud of dust. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

I saw that on Gao Baichuan's pale face, which had not seen the sun for too long, his facial features were exaggeratedly shrunk into a ball, involving dense wrinkles and spreading in all directions. In every wrinkle, there seems to reveal a sense of horror. Xie Yixiang, who was opposite, frowned slightly, and turned sideways to avoid the dust that filled the table with him.

At this moment, where Xie Yixiang is is is the mysterious fifth layer in the heavenly prison in the capital.

You must know that this Jinling Heavenly Prison is excavated and built underground, imitating the structure of the mythical Yama Hell, and the higher the lower the layer, the more important the prisoners are in it. As for the fifth layer of the prison in front of him, to outsiders, it is a layer that does not exist at all in the heavenly prison in the capital, and I don't know which dynasty and which generation it has started, it has been quietly hidden under the well-known four layers of "heaven", "earth", "xuan" and "yellow", silently completing its duties. Although Xie Yixiang is working in the torture room, it is the first time she has heard of it, and it is the first time she has come here. If Zhuang Haoming hadn't broken the mystery last night, I am afraid that I would not have known that there was such a place in this life.

Fang had just come down from the secret passage of the fourth-layer "yellow" layer of the heavenly prison, and it was already more than thirty zhang deep above the ground, and there was a cold dampness everywhere. All the man-made buildings were gone, except for a stone passage a foot wide in front of them, and a torch burned every ten steps on the wall. Xie Yixiang has been the true legend of the Sword King since he was a child, and has developed a set of "poor thousands of miles" of eyesight, not only can he see places that ordinary people can't reach, but even in the dark night, he can distinguish things as usual. But now when you look at it, you can't even see the depth of this passage.

And in this passage, a swarthy rusty iron table is horizontally in the middle, and the white-faced man with dense wrinkles behind the table is Gao Baichuan, the head of the fifth layer of the prison. Now when Gao Baichuan heard that he was going to see the "Rainy Night Man Tu", his expression suddenly went out of shape and he slapped the table.

Xie Yixiang couldn't help but feel disdain when she saw Gao Baichuan's appearance. She usually goes in and out of the torture room, and she knows most about these prisons, as long as the prison door is closed, they are equivalent to the emperor in the prison, and they can play with the prisoners in the prison at will. Unexpectedly, this Gao Baichuan, as the head of the heavenly prison, and also in charge of the fifth layer of this mysterious heavenly prison, can be described as a character like the king of Hades in hell, and he will be scared by the name of "Rainy Night Man Tu" like this, which is really useless.

However, after thinking about it, even a character like Gao Baichuan is so jealous of the "Rainy Night Man Slaughter", which shows its power. Xie Yixiang was both curious and unimaginable, and she really didn't know what kind of character the "Rainy Night Man Tu" she was going to see was.

Xie Yixiang's mind turned, Gao Baichuan in front of him had gradually calmed down, stuffed the black iron cigarette stick in his hand into his mouth, and took a big gulp of dry tobacco. In the smoke, it was faintly seen that the thick cotton coat on his body was trembling slightly, showing that his body was still trembling a little. Xie Yixiang couldn't help but ask, "Lord Gao, what's wrong with my request?"

"This ...... Alas, Miss Xie San must be laughing at me Gao Baichuan in her heart. Gao Baichuan seemed to come back to his senses and said with a little embarrassment, "Fuck, you must know that when that person started killing, I was afraid that Miss Xie San You hadn't been weaned yet, of course I didn't know how terrible he was......"

Xie Yixiang couldn't help frowning again when she heard that his mouth was full of vulgarity. Gao Baichuan didn't seem to notice her expression, and took a few more puffs of dry cigarettes, and then said: "Yes, Miss Xie San came to interrogate that person this time, it's really Xie Fengxuan...... Is it really General Xie?"

Xie Yixiang said lightly: "Even if Lord Gao doesn't know me, he should know my father's Jiulong Jue." ”

I saw a bowl-sized yellow jade jue in her hand, on which nine flying dragons were thinly carved, surrounded by three yang-carved small seals of "Pingtianxia", and the workmanship was very exquisite. Since ancient times, jade has been honored by yellow, and it seems that such a large piece of jade is extremely rare, and the carving process on the surface of jade is indeed worthy of the four words "priceless".

Of course, Gao Baichuan knows this thing, and those who hold it can go up to the imperial city and the court with swords, and they can kill hundreds of officials and pardon repeat offenders. Today, only Xie Fengxuan, the first general of the founding of the country, has this special experience, not to mention that the one who is now coming with Jiulong Jue is the third lady of General Xie's family, and there must be no mistake. He hurriedly extinguished the dry smoke and bowed down and laughed.

Xie Yixiang put away Jiulong Jue, but her face was slightly red, but fortunately, Gao Baichuan was groping in his arms with his head down at this time, and he didn't notice her abnormality. In a moment, Gao Baichuan had already taken out a large string of bits and pieces of keys from his arms, picked out an inconspicuous black key from it, and inserted it into the stone wall beside him.

Xie Yixiang found that there was a small keyhole on the stone wall next to Gao Baichuan's iron table, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised. Then I heard the sound of metal twisting, and a diamond on the stone wall turned over, and a black iron box popped out. Gao Baichuan opened the iron box, and there were ten sterling silver keys inside, he picked out one and held it in the palm of his hand, and said to himself: "I didn't expect that today, someone would come to interrogate that guy, but it's very strange." ”

Xie Yixiang was slightly surprised, and couldn't help asking: "I heard Lord Zhuang say that whenever there is a suspicious case in the criminal arrest room, he has asked this person for advice many times, so he naturally wants to come to the prison for arraignment, doesn't Lord Gao know?"

Gao Baichuan laughed, "Bah", and said: "Zhuang Haoming's old boy is tired in private, how can a small character like me know about it? Hehe, it turns out that the third lady is trying to find that guy to help solve the case this time, which is very interesting. As he spoke, he was already in the lead, Xie Yixiang followed closely, and the two walked towards the depths of the passage one after the other.

Xie Yixiang walked out for a moment, and became more and more surprised, could it be that the fifth floor of the entire heavenly prison was really just this passage in front of him? But under the light of the torches on the wall, the stone walls on both sides of the passage were all made of neat black stones, each of which was a few feet square, mottled with traces of time. In the cracks of some of the stones, sticky water droplets kept coming out, giving off a musty smell.

As soon as Xie Yixiang had this idea, he saw that a forked road appeared next to the passage in front of him, and gradually more and more forks appeared on both sides, all of which were made of the same black ashlar stone, and there was no difference between them, and even the width and height of the passage were also made of molds. Gao Baichuan took her to turn more than ten corners left and right, and Xie Yixiang could no longer remember the way she came.

It turned out to be a labyrinth, seeing these intricate passages intertwined, accompanied by the cold and wet smell around her, Xie Yixiang only felt dizzy. Although she doesn't know anything about the layout of the formation, after all, she comes from a famous family and knows the mystery. The labyrinthine passage in front of me seems to be chaotic, but its essence must be arranged according to a certain formation, and there are rules to follow. There are often vulgar people who don't understand its meaning, and always think that there are rules to be found according to the arrangement of the formation, and it is easy to be broken, but it is better to arrange them randomly. As everyone knows, if this labyrinth is not arranged in a chaotic manner, firstly, it will lose many changes in the formation of formations, and thus its power will be greatly reduced; secondly, once its chaotic layout map is lost, it will no longer be able to be passed on to future generations, wasting this great building.

Thinking of this, Xie Yixiang's curiosity suddenly increased, and she couldn't help asking: "I didn't expect that the fifth layer of this heavenly prison turned out to be a labyrinth, don't say that the prisoner has dark iron shackles on his body, and there are heavy guards on it, I am afraid that this complex formation in front of me alone can trap most heroes in the world." I just don't know what kind of formation this labyrinth is arranged?"

Gao Baichuan in front of him kept walking, and replied casually: "This is your mistake, the fifth layer of this heavenly prison is really not built according to any formation, because as long as it is a formation, someone can break it, and the layout here is really not a rule to follow." Except for the builders back then, I'm afraid only the cell boss here knows the way out. ”

Xie Yixiang was slightly stunned, she actually guessed wrong, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and her mouth still said strongly: "It's impossible, I'm afraid that the tall man doesn't know the layout of the formation in between, if there is no rule to be found in the construction of this labyrinth, once the layout of this place is lost, will it be that the fifth layer of this entire heavenly prison will be abandoned?"

Gao Baichuan smiled and said: "It's not that I'm talking nonsense, do you know that this prison was originally built by an emperor surnamed Xiao in the past, he has always been wealthy, so he doesn't care if he is abandoned or not? He paused, then added, "As for this fifth-layer heavenly dungeon labyrinth hidden deep underground, it was only built for one important criminal, and it was specially used to imprison him. ”
