Chapter 55 Evil Comes from All Directions
For a time, the realm of the Quartet was tense.
Suddenly, a man's laughter came from not far away: "Senior brother, why is Brother Lu angry?"
Gao Shanyan raised his eyes and glanced at the visitor coldly, and said lightly: "You came just in time, take this person down, take care of me with good food and drink, and double the daily whipping." ”
"It's all up to Brother Gao. ”
With that, the man picked up Dong Ping and walked to the other end of the valley.
After the two left, the man surnamed Lu on the side of Gao Shanyan was a little worried: "Big brother, this person is named by Miss Duan and the Water Protector to take care of him." It's a bit inappropriate for you to do that. ”
Gao Shanjiao sneered: "What kind of thing is that girl surnamed Duan, and what is the water protector." Don't forget that this lotus canopy prison has always been under the control of the Earth Protector. Last night, the Earth Protector had already sent a letter saying that we were going to have a new person in prison, and his old man also asked us to "take good care" of him. ”
The man surnamed Lu smiled bitterly and said nothing, the two protectors of water and soil in the rudder have always been at odds, and they have been fighting openly and secretly for many years. Now in the past two years, there has been a rise in the business of grabbing land, and this lotus prison does not belong to any party. But the earth protector forcibly added a high mountain here, and this place was surnamed Tu, which made it difficult for him, the prison master assigned by the rudder, to do very much.
The man carried Dong Ping away from the high mountain before asking, "Brother Dong, why did you come to this lotus prison?"
Dong Pingqiang pulled out a smile and said: "It's hard to say, how did that Gongsun brother get to this place where birds don't." ”
The man who relieved Dong Ping just now was Gongsun Xuan, and he smiled bitterly: "It's also hard to say, when the night is free, brother, I'll bring two more pots of wine and talk to Brother Dong in detail." ”
In fact, Gongsun Xuan didn't say it, Dong Ping could also find some eyebrows, it should be the last time he leaked the news to himself again, so he was sent here. At this time, Dong Ping felt that the place on his shoulder that had been whipped by the high mountain was scorching, and he snorted softly: "Brother Gongsun, what is the way of the high mountain tree?"
Gongsun Xuan snorted disdainfully and said, "He's just a dog." But then he smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "But we are not as good as dogs in this place, and some things are better to take a step back and open the sky." ”
Dong Ping smiled indifferently, and said casually: "At this time, naturally, the foolish brother just wanted to speak quickly, but he forgot his own situation, and he couldn't complain about others after being whipped, so he could only blame the foolish brother for his own humiliation." ”
Gongsun Xuan shook his head and didn't say anything more.
The stone cave cells on both sides of this cliff are divided into three floors, and Gongsun Xuan placed Dong Ping in a stone prison that was vacant on the middle floor, and was called away.
The stone dungeon was not comfortable, only a few sticks of hay were laid, and the walls of the cave had long since lost its original stone color, replaced by the dark red color left by the dried blood of the old age.
Dong Ping sat down cross-legged and tried to mobilize his true qi. However, the water protector's qi-locking kung fu was too profound, and Dong Ping ran the sword chapter more than a dozen times in a row, but the qi palace did not respond.
Dong Ping secretly sighed and had no choice but to give up, and then a hoarse old voice came from the stone prison on his right, and the man smiled and said, "Gu'er, let's guess whether the person who came this time is a man or a woman, okay?"
An equally old voice came from the stone prison on his left, but the man's voice sounded much more stable: "Just guess, I'm still afraid that you won't succeed, but if you guess wrong, the day's ration will be gone." ”
When the man said that, the old man on the left smiled and said, "I guess she's a woman." ”
Dong Ping secretly felt funny after hearing this, he walked over from the right just now, to say that the old man on the left didn't see it, if there was really someone on the right, it was impossible not to see whether he was a man or a woman.
At this time, the old man on the left snorted coldly and said, "You guess it's a woman, you just want to force me to guess it's a man." I don't guess he's a man, I guess he's a eunuch who is neither male nor female!"
Dong Ping shook his head and smiled, the angry words of these two old men sounded quite interesting at this time.
Suddenly, an old man under Dong Ping said in the dialect of the south of Yanzhou: "I know, I know, you both guessed wrong, this person is a man." You two will have all the rations for me. ”
At this time, a magnetic female voice came from Dong Ping's head: "Old dry turtle, others are playing, you have to follow and intervene, you are really not ashamed!" The woman's tone was full of sarcasm and disdain. But as soon as the woman finished speaking, the man below was silent.
The old man on the right sighed, and said in a strange way: "Husband and wife fight, after the head of the bed, the end of the bed!"
The woman snorted and said, "Bantam monkey, shut up the old lady, you're not a good thing!"
The old man on the right smiled and said, "Big sister, don't forget, the old man has an encounter with you!"
The woman snorted twice, but said no more.
If Dong Ping met such an interesting person in normal times, he would definitely talk to him, but now that he is in prison, he is really in no mood.
The sun sets in the west, and the moon rises in the east.
Gongsun Xuan came with a food box, he pulled up and sat cross-legged on the protruding stone platform in front of the railing and said, "Brother Dong come and drink." ”
With that, he put the dishes, chopsticks, wine and food on the stone platform.
Dong Ping moved over, picked up the wine that Gongsun Xuan put into the cave and drank it all and said, "Good wine." ”
Gongsun Xuan said lightly: "It's just a penny and a big jar of bad wine, what kind of good wine can it be." ”
Dong Ping looked at Gongsun Xuan's depressed face, and asked: "Brother Gongsun came here, presumably because he was dragged by me." ”
Gongsun Xuan shook his head and said, "Of course, there is some relationship, but I came here at my own request." Instead of being angry with a group of people in Yanlin, it is better to come here and only suffer from the anger of two people. With that, Gongsun Xuan drank three cups in a row.
"Why did Brother Dong also come to this Lotus Prison?"
Dong Ping told Gongsun Xuan about his future journey, but he hid the section on his acquaintance with Duan Yunlou, just saying that he had inadvertently offended a woman from the Fu clan.
Gongsun Xuan said with a gloomy face: "It's that stinky bitch again!"
After a while, Dong Ping said: "What kind of people are being imprisoned in this Lotus Peng Prison, and they chose such a hidden place?"
Gongsun Xuan replied: "They are all people who are against the Shu clan. ”
At this time, I only heard the old man on the left snort heavily: "Dao Sanctimonious! Who one of these people in this lotus prison has done against your clan, but we don't want to be used by your clan!"
Gongsun Xuan smiled awkwardly and said, "What he said is true." ”
Dong Ping smiled, and after the two drank for a while, Gongsun Xuan suddenly said: "Brother Dong said that the true qi was sealed by the water protector, I will see if I can help you untie it." ”
Dong Ping was overjoyed when he heard this, and stretched out his hand. Gongsun Xuan held Dong Ping's hand, and a warm true qi flowed into Dong Ping's arm. After a while, Gongsun Xuan frowned and took his hand away, and said with a wry smile: "The water protector's qi locking kung fu is really profound, my true qi only reaches the arm, and it will be difficult to go on." ”
Dong Ping didn't show any loss, but he comforted Gongsun Xuan and said: "It's okay, I only use it to drink and sleep in this cave every day, but I don't need any true qi." ”
At this time, the old man on the right suddenly laughed and said, "Little brother, can you borrow a glass of wine from the old man to drink." ”
Gongsun Xuan said coldly: "If you want to drink, if you want to be beaten, I can reward you with a few whips." ”
Dong Ping smiled and said: "A glass of wine is nothing, since he is hungry for wine, Brother Gongsun will reward him with a glass." ”
Gongsun Xuan couldn't bear to refute Dong Ping's face after hearing this, so he calmly went to the last glass of wine and jumped sideways to the left, and after a long time, he heard the old man on the left laugh and said: "Good wine!"
After Gongsun Xuan came back, he sat down and whispered to Dong Ping: "Brother Dong, are you still talking to less than these four people on weekdays?"
Dong Ping was puzzled: "Why?"
Gongsun Xuan said softly: "These four people are the four murderers of the mountains and seas who were notorious many years ago!"
Dong Ping pondered for a long time before he was surprised: "Could it be the four evil people named after the four beasts of Qiqi, Hanqi, Chaos, and Gluttony?"
As soon as Gongsun Xuan nodded, he could hear the woman above say angrily: "If you talk about gossip behind your back, you will have a rotten tongue!"
Dong Ping smiled dumbly and said: "It's offended, I, Dong Ping, punished myself with three cups." ”
At this time, the woman snorted coldly: "Forget about self-punishment, my wife wants to make a deal with you." ”
