Chapter 135: Life and death are hard to know

The prison is located behind the government office, only one street away from the government office.

The distance of this street seems to be very close, but in fact it is not short, although the road is not crowded, but it is also quite narrow, and can only accommodate a horse-drawn carriage.

Except for the presence of officers and soldiers and jailers, there are almost no people coming and going, and I am afraid that no one wants to come here, let alone anyone dares to approach here.

For the entire Bashan City, this is the most terrifying place in the world, even more terrifying than the Imperial Palace, which is far away in the sky.

There is even a rumor that he will not enter Bashan Prison in his life, and it is difficult to know his life and death from now on, which is this place. It can be seen how eerie and terrible this place is, and it is not difficult to imagine how terrifying this place is in people's hearts.

This bluestone paved road, the two sides are staggered, twists and turns, I don't know how many masters are hidden in the dark, and there are naturally heavy guards before and after, as if it belongs to the layout that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Maybe it's because of the regional trend of Bashan City, or because there are a lot of people in the rivers and lakes who are imprisoned here.

At this moment, there are also many jailers patrolling back and forth along the way, leading straight to the entrance of the prison.

It can be said that the guard is quite tight, and the defensive force is even more five steps and one person, and ten steps in a group.

If someone tries to storm the prison, they will be able to find out as soon as possible.

Even the top masters on the rivers and lakes are not willing to make a move here, if someone really dares to risk the world's condemnation and dare to come here to break through, I am afraid it will be difficult to retreat from here.

This is the most heavily guarded place in the entire Bashan City, and it is also one of the most strict places in the whole world.

Of course, the reason why this place has such a reputation is also indispensable to the Tang family's contributions. Not to mention how many officers and soldiers are stationed here, the secret weapon of the Tang family here alone is enough to deter countless people from going here.

A group of officers and soldiers marched along this road, perhaps because of the twists and turns of the road, but not a single person rode a horse.

Seeing a group of officers and soldiers coming up, they were about to walk to the prison door, and the officials guarding the door hurriedly stepped forward to stop everyone, "The prison is heavy, and the idlers stop." If the person who comes does not have an official warrant, he should quickly retreat and not stay. This sentence is quite decent, like an official dialect.

The officers and soldiers led by him walked out of the crowd and said, "This officer has been ordered to come to deal with important business, you quickly go and inform Liu Qing's old boy, and hurry out to greet him." ”

When the officials saw the appearance of the person in front of them, they immediately panicked, and hurriedly bent down and bowed and said, "My subordinates have come to see your lordship, there are many offenses, and I ask your lord to forgive me." It is not difficult to see the high status of the officers and men headed by this leader.

"Don't be polite, you also do things according to the rules, and this official won't take it to heart. The officers and soldiers led by him spoke in a soothing tone, "Did Liu Qing's old boy drink flower wine, why didn't he see where the others were?" The voice said with some displeasure.

"Adults are angry, adults are angry. A man dressed as a cell boss staggered out of the cell with his front foot after his hind foot, and saluted to the officer and soldier at the head, "The villain doesn't know that the adult is coming, it is really a disappointment, and please don't blame the adult." At this time, the hat on his head almost fell off, which made people laugh and feel very funny.

The officers and soldiers at the head frowned, and said in a somewhat unkind tone, "You old boy, you can't keep a good errand, where did you run around?" is still so disheveled, I think you are going to bully those female prisoners in prison again, and go for fun. ”

"Your Majesty is angry. Even if the villain has this heart, he doesn't have the courage, and the adult is really wronged by his subordinates. Liu Qing said with an aggrieved face.

The officers and soldiers at the head said solemnly, "I don't know who you are, what kind of shit are you pouting ontocks, the officer is clear in his heart, and you have deceived the officer." Then he said angrily, "If you don't take care of your life, be careful that someone will kick off your head sooner or later." ”

As soon as these words were said, the surrounding officers and soldiers were almost amused by this sentence, and they almost laughed out loud. Seeing Liu Qingtie's blue face, no one dared to laugh.

"The villain must abide by the teachings of the adults, and must keep to himself and abide by the law. Liu Qing responded.

The officer and soldier at the head muttered, "I hope you will not live up to the expectations of your officer." ”

"Don't worry, the villain will go to the master tomorrow to find a Mobao, write down what the adult just said, and hang it in the cell to watch it all the time. Liu Qing said respectfully.

As the saying goes, thousands of clothes are worn, but sycophants are not worn, and when the officers and soldiers led by them heard this, their expressions suddenly improved a little.

Liu Qing saw that the faces of the officers and soldiers led by him were a little better, and he asked respectfully, "My lord, I don't know how I have time to come to this government prison today, could it be that there is something that will not work." ”

When the officer and soldier at the head heard this, he stretched out his hand and patted his forehead, "It's good that you reminded the officer, otherwise I would have almost forgotten the purpose of coming here." The slap was extremely hard, and as soon as it fell, almost everyone heard a crisp sound.

As he spoke, the officers and soldiers at the head glanced at one of the attendants beside him, and the attendant stepped forward and handed Liu Qing an object like an official butterfly.

Liu Qing opened the official butterfly and took advantage of the bright firelight, and understood the general idea at a glance, and when he was about to speak, the officers and soldiers led by him said, "This official is ordered by the lord to bring this person to you, I hope you can live up to the adult's entrustment." "There are words in the words, but they are not explicit.

"Adults can rest assured, villains understand. Liu Qing said respectfully.

It's not the first time he's done such a thing, and naturally he knows the deep meaning of the words of the officers and soldiers at the head, not to mention that at this moment, there is an official butterfly delegated by an adult in his hand, and he doesn't understand it.

"Now that you understand, I won't say much about it, and I'll leave the rest to you. As the officers and soldiers at the head spoke, they turned back to Murong Yu and said, "It's not too early, so don't let this officer go." ”

"Your Excellency, just be casual. Murong Yu responded.

When Liu Qing heard that the officers and soldiers led by him were about to leave, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The villain will send the adult." ”

"No need. The officers and soldiers at the head instructed in Liu Qing's ear, "Do this well, and your benefits will be indispensable in the future." ”

"The villain remembers the teachings of the adults. Liu Qing said, while taking out a pack of silver taels from his arms in pain, and secretly handed it to the officers and soldiers led by everyone without everyone noticing, "A little meaning, this is the villain's mind, and please be sure to do it." ”

The officers and soldiers at the head weighed their weights and said with satisfaction, "Do it well, this officer is very optimistic about you." As he spoke, he led a group of his men back away.

As soon as Liu Qing saw everyone walking away, he instructed his subordinates to step forward, and even said to Murong Yu, "What are you still stunned about, let's go." The tone changed from what he had just done, and it seemed very unfamiliar.

This sentence obviously did not mean to let Murong Yu leave, but on the contrary, it made him go to the prison. If you come, you will be safe, and Murong Yu has no intention of resisting.

As soon as the official guarding the door heard Liu Qing's words, he hurriedly retreated from the iron door of the prison.

Inside the iron gate is a long downward corridor, and I don't know where it leads.

On both sides of the corridor, dim oil lamps are lit, which is enough to illuminate the entire ground in total darkness.

The stone steps are a little slippery, but there is not a single moss in the eye, and it seems that the care is very meticulous on weekdays.

Continuing to walk down the stone steps, you can see a guard in the prison at intervals, these guards look very inconspicuous, but Murong Yu looked carefully, these people are obviously from some practitioners who are not weak in martial arts.

The cell where Murong Yu was held was located in the deepest part of the prison.

Under the leadership of the cell leader, he went through dozens of checkpoints before and after, and even bypassed many corners with nine bends and eighteen bends before barely reaching it.
