If he hadn't really walked in, Luobei might never have known for the rest of his life that a place would be like that.

There was not a ray of sunlight in the long passageway, and the torches stuck in the airtight but still damp walls could not illuminate the gloom inside.

In the quiet passage, only the sound of shoes rubbing against the ground is still uncomfortable, and the heart is numb.

There is almost no time visible here like the bottom of the Demon Suppression Tower, so it is difficult to have a sense of time, but it feels extremely long, and I don't know when I will really come to the end.

Only the sound of regular footsteps made Luo Bei realize that he was still moving forward, otherwise he would even suspect that he was still standing still.

There were no guards in this passage, because there were only dark walls on both sides of the place, and they were impermeable, and no one could escape from it, so there was no need to take ten steps and be alone like outside.

Finally, the footsteps ahead stopped.

Luo Bei raised his head and saw the end point, there was an iron fence on the side, which was rusty and mottled, thinking that it was also because the prison did not see the sun all year round and was extremely humid.

Zuo Zhengming carefully took out a small bunch of keys from his arms, inserted them into the huge lock with a "click", and then opened the lock with a slight force.

"Inside is the prison, Yu Qi's family is in the local number, I can only send you here, the others have already said hello, but there is a little ......"

Zuo Zhengming didn't look like he was joking like before, but became extremely serious, he hesitated for a while before he said: "You must be fast, although Lord Qi is not responsible for being on duty, he has always been cautious, and he may come to inquire at any time, and I won't be able to protect ......you at that time."

Wang Jinyu nodded gratefully and said, "Don't worry, I naturally know how to ...... proportions."

Wang Jinyu and Luo Bei walked into the prison together, which was brighter than the passage outside, but the noisy sound also followed.

The walls of iron divided the cells into countless small houses, and there was no light in them, but from time to time there was a shrill roar that sounded not at all human, but more like beasts from hell, rubbing against the walls, and then making hearty and painful sounds.

Some people were laughing, some people were crying, and the crying and laughter were mixed, but both laughter and crying were extremely painful.

It is a peculiar torture in which they do not see the sun all year round, and there is no one to talk to, they can only talk to themselves, and over time, they become insane.

Suddenly, a hand slammed into the iron railing, as if a fierce aura came.

Luo Bei subconsciously retreated, and grabbed Wang Jinyu by the way, but there was no danger to really get close to him.

He looked up and saw a pair of bloodshot eyes staring at him motionlessly.

The man inside slowly opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end it was just a roar, and his teeth were so white, so white that they were a little dazzling.

At this moment, a jailer came out and snorted coldly, and the prisoner in the prison slowed down the strange and shrill cry slightly.

"You two were brought in by Lord Zuo, right?" the jailer's voice was a little cold.

Wang Jinyu nodded, walked to the jailer, waved his wide sleeved robe, leaned close to the jailer's ear and said something, and then smiled and bowed.

The jailer's face

's coldness suddenly had a hint of warmth, but he only bowed his head slightly, thinking that he didn't fully know the identity of the young man in front of him, and the change in attitude was probably only because Wang Jinyu's hand was shaking his hands together under his sleeve robe just now.

"Please......" the jailer said crisply.

Then he led the two of them forward unimpeded, in fact, they went around and around in an unknown number of directions.

Finally, he stopped in front of a cell called "Dizi".

The jailer looked back at Wang Jinyu and Luo Bei again, then glanced inside, and finally just said, "Hurry up!"

He opened the door, but he retreated.

Luobei held on to the iron fence, and a cold breath came.

"Yu Han, you ...... Are you there?" he asked softly, afraid of suddenly startling the people inside.

By the light of the fire outside, he saw a dirty man in a white prison uniform huddled in a corner.

He frowned slightly, walked over, leaned down, and saw clearly that the originally weak young man was wearing his hair loose, although he did not seem to have been beaten on the outside, but the mental torture may be more terrifying.

Yu Han's face was very bad, and it was obvious that such a hellish place was a great test for him.

"Yu Han, you ......" Luo Bei trembled and stretched out his hand to put it on Yu Han, wanting him to feel his friendliness.

Yu Han exhaled, as if he had just recovered from a dream.

"I'm fine, it's just ......" he opened his eyes, and his eyes rolled, probably to say, "This is really not a place for people!"

"What's wrong with you, why did you suddenly go to prison after not seeing him for a few days?" Luo Bei asked immediately after knowing that he was fine.

Yu Han sighed lightly, and said in a weak voice: "The imperial court has issued an order to let the states and counties levy additional taxes, but Zizhou has been in drought in recent years, and the people are still difficult to make a living, my father, as the governor of the state, privately withheld the holy metaphor, and did not want to be known by the imperial court in the end, Qin Hui was furious, and personally ordered to send someone to take his father and the Zizhou guards together, and escorted them all the way to Dali Temple in order to warn the world......"

"Are you talking about the current Prime Minister Qin Hui?" Luo Bei clenched his hands, but cold sweat flowed out of his palms.

"My father has not done this once or twice, even the emperor has said that the magistrate should be as concerned about the people as my father, so he will detain all the crimes of disobeying the court decrees, but this time ......"

"Qin Hui concocted the crime with his own hands, first bought off the master of the house, and asked him to falsely accuse his father of fanning the defenders to loot the people's money and want to flee to other countries and destroy the imperial court's plans, and then the imperial court soldiers arrived, my father had no chance to prepare, and the escort road was not very peaceful, the black-clothed killer wanted to take our lives, but fortunately, there were unknown people secretly protecting him and he reluctantly arrived in Lin'an......"

Luo Bei never thought that the case of Yu Han's family would be related to Qin Xi's father.

In the end, Yu Han grabbed Luo Bei's hand and said, "You don't have to think about saving me, I just tell you one thing you must remember, let Marshal Han be careful......

He looked at Wang Jinyu in front of the door, and Luo Bei knew that he didn't want Wang Jinyu to hear the conversation between the two.

"It was his help that I was able to meet you......"

Fortunately, Wang Jinyu didn't seem to have any intention of approaching.

Yu Han lowered his voice and said: "After thinking about it, I still feel that what has happened recently is really weird, there must be a conspiracy in it, and this conspiracy ...... I can only think of two things, one is that the imperial court and the Jin State are at war and peace

The second is that the emperor has no queen, and the prince has become a heart disease for the entire court, including the emperor......"

"Don't remind the old marshal and Zhao Gongzi that you must be careful, it is likely that the ultimate goal of all this will be the two of them......"

At this time, Wang Jinyu stood in front of the prison gate and said urgently: "Luobei, we should go, I'm afraid there will be trouble if it's late......"

Luo Bei glanced back, Wang Jinyu stood outside the door and waited, looking around, for fear that someone would suddenly come, so that the two of them would be in danger if they wanted to get out of this prison.

"You're so weak, I'm afraid you can't bear the torture in prison...... I'll get you out......"

Yu Han smiled dismally, shook his head resolutely and said, "What, you still want to forcibly take me out?" Let's be realistic, there are iron walls and strict guards here, not to mention that if I break into prison without permission, not only will my family be deeply affected, but it will be difficult to overturn the case at that time...... It's going to affect the friend who brought you in......"

"You get out of nowhere, maybe you can still think of a way......"

Luo Bei naturally understood that he was just saying something in a hurry, and he could only say goodbye to Yu Han temporarily at this moment and leave with Wang Jinyu.

After they walked out of the cell, someone soon came to lock the door of the cell, and when Luo Bei turned back, he could only see the place that was as dark as ink, and this loneliness was comparable to the cave in Xuanqing Temple.

Wang Jinyu pulled Luo Bei and walked out quickly, Zuo Zhengming had been waiting in front of the long passage, looking very anxious, seeing that the two of them finally appeared, a big stone in his heart was slightly put down, but it was not the time to relax his vigilance at this moment, because the two of them were still in prison, and it was safe to send them out completely.

"Come with me......"

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that he is more anxious at the moment than when they came in, after all, the more he stays here, the more dangerous it is.

Although Wang Jinyu, as the grandson of the former prime minister Wang Boyan, is also an extraordinary figure in the court, and all the big and small officials give a little "thin face", but the Dali Temple Qing Qi Lin is an iron-faced figure, not to mention the former prime minister, even the current emperor once wanted to ask him to "accommodate" a little bit to save a relative of the next queen mother, but he categorically refused.

He claimed that the emperor was the honor of the Ninety-Five, if he wanted to do something, he couldn't stop it, but there was only one need to make a clear will, in addition to that, he thought that someone was falsely preaching the will, and the emperor's face was blue and blue, and then the emperor talked about it in front of the ministers, and admitted that he was not careful.

This incident caused a sensation in the government and the opposition, and since then Qi Lin has had an iconic nickname, and people call him "The Man in the Iron Mask".

The huge stone door slowly opened, and the light from the outside immediately shone in, although it was only a faint fire, but for a person who came out of the prison, it was like the whole world.

However, Zuo Zhengming raised his head, didn't even take a step, and stood there stunned.

Luo Bei felt that his body was trembling slightly.

He took two steps forward, and saw bright torches outside, and a face like a dead man.

That face only gives people the feeling that it is raw, cold, as cold as black iron.

Qi ...... Master Qi...... How do you ...... Why are you here......" Zuo Zhengming said with a slight stammer.

Qi Lin slapped his shoulder with one hand, but instead of looking at him, he stared at the two teenagers behind him, and a sneer slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Do you think this Dali Temple prison is really a place where you can come and go as you want?"

......
