Chapter 418: Infiltrating the Prison (Part II)
"Go in, be honest with me!" In the dungeon, Hu Yidi was escorted to the cell by two jailers, who gave him an unceremonious reprimand, and then pushed Hu Yidi in.
When Hu Yidi entered, his hands were not cuffed, and after pretending to stumble a few steps, Hu Yidi moved to the innermost corner of the wall, and then sat down. Hu Yidi looked at the two jailers who had just escorted him in with disdain, and cursed in his heart: "Hmph, if you hadn't planned with Brother Canglong first, if you dared to do this to me, I would have beaten you all over the ground to find your teeth......
The cell that Hu Yidi was locked in, as I said before, was the largest cell in the dungeon, and all the robbers who were escorted in by the beggars were all locked up here. Of course, this also includes Yang Jinkang and Lu Symbiosis, the disciples of the Beggar Gang who pretended to be robbers and were secretly recognized by Canglong, who had just been imprisoned before.
Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng are the five bags of disciples of the Beggar Gang, and they are also an important task by Elder Chang Feng's side, this time they pretend to be robbers, which must also be a plan that the Beggar Gang has thought of before. After Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng came in, they didn't ignore it at the first time like Hu Yidi, they seemed to have a good relationship with the prisoners here very quickly, chatted enthusiastically, and stood at the front of the cell. It can be seen that these two are also veterans, and they are much more professional than Hu Yidi, who is a newcomer.
But Hu Yidi was not in a hurry, he sat in the corner of the wall, but looked leisurely. After all, he and others still have use value in the eyes of those officials, and when the time comes, they will be secretly released, and they will have to connect with the people of the government to find the place where the stolen money is hidden. Therefore, he expected that the most these jailers were now locked up here, and they did not dare to make any moves.
Canglong had also secretly identified it before, and Hu Yidi's eyes never left Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng. Hu Yidi thought that if he let the disciples of the beggar gang investigate in person, and he watched from behind, he would save a lot of effort......
Sure enough, Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng are worthy of being in the beggar gang who have experienced the world, black and white, and they have a good relationship with these robbers at once, and they try to use a vulgar tone when they speak.
Yang Jinkang stood next to a "brother" who had a good conversation. He asked, "Hey, brother, how long have you been locked up here?"
It was impossible for that person to suspect that there would be people from the beggar gang going undercover with his group. So he didn't shy away from saying: "It didn't take long, I was escorted in yesterday...... The people of this beggar gang are really full and have nothing to do, what kind of security are they doing here? Originally, the prefect was very good, but now there is chaos everywhere. The Mengyuan court had no spare time to manage the small city here. Lord Song took advantage of the opportunity to get some oil and water, and did not forget to take care of our brothers...... But the beggars are here, and there is no way to do these 'tricks' openly...... No, just cut off our way to make a fortune, and put us in a dungeon—"
"The prefect you are talking about is Lord Song Lianxun?" Yang Jinkang asked again, "We haven't been here for a long time, and I heard that we can eat and drink spicy food with your eldest brother here." Who knew that he was caught inexplicably by the beggars two days after he came, and it was really bad luck-"
The man smiled. Then he said: "It's okay, being in prison is only temporary, and it's not the first time I've come in......"
"What's wrong?" Yang Jinkang asked pretendedly.
The man continued: "Hmph, Lord Song has come up with a clever plan in order to hide from these beggars...... After all, the beggar gang is in the martial arts, although they clearly punish the evil in the world, but they also resolutely dare not directly intervene in the court. So Lord Song pretended to be in front of the beggars and disciples, escorted us into the dungeon and imprisoned us, but in fact, it was not, Lord Song did this with other plans-"
"Oh?" Yang Jinkang listened carefully.
The man continued: "Knowing that there is no way to make a fortune for the beggars, let's make it secret...... Lord Song said before, let's get money from the bandits first, and then hide in a hidden place. Wait for the beggars to escort us back to the dungeon, where our people will secretly tell the people of the government where the money is hidden, and then divide the money equally, and make a fortune together, so that we can hide from the beggars, and will not cut off our wealth, won't we kill two birds with one stone?"
After listening to this, Yang Jinkang nodded with satisfaction, and responded with a smile: "Wonderful, wonderful, it's really a clever plan-" Yang Jinkang said this clearly, but in his heart he was secretly thinking about the plan that the beggar gang should deal with next.
Lu Gongsheng walked to Yang Jinkang's side and asked about the man: "But we are new here, and we don't know the situation here." Don't we really have to stay here, is someone really taking us out?" Lu Gongsheng also pretended to be afraid.
The man smiled and said, "Don't worry, it'll be fine...... As I said, this isn't the first time I've come in. Later, a pair of officers and soldiers will take us out, and then we will be dressed in proper clothes, and then we will be told where we are hiding. ”
Yang Jinkang thought for a while, and then asked: "Then where is the location of the joint, we also want to go, and meet your eldest brother by the way-"
The man continued: "The location is not far away, just outside the city on the 'Tiangong Mountain'. At the end of the day, our people and the government people dressed as robbers are there, and our eldest brother will be there, and basically our people will be there. If you really want to meet us, I'll introduce you to him when the time comes. ”
"Then thank you, brother-" Yang Jinkang responded with a smile, and then walked away slowly with Lu Gongsheng, as if to discuss something secretly.
And the conversation between the three of them in front just now made Hu Yidi, who was sitting in the back, hear it clearly. "It's ...... on Tiangong Mountain," Hu Yidi muttered to himself, "It's not far away, but it's too late, is it to hide people's eyes...... But since it's tonight, I think it won't be long before someone picks us up......"
Hu Yidi said secretly in his heart, leaning against the stone wall of the cell, his head turned to the side, his eyes estimating the winter sunset outside the skylight......
Since the winter sun is not long, the unitary time has not yet arrived, and there are signs of dark sky outside......
Hu Yidi had been sitting in one position all afternoon, watching the sky get dark. Hu Yidi said silently in his heart: "It's almost time, someone should come to pick us up......
While they were waiting, there was a movement of the steps of officers and soldiers from the stairs at the entrance of the dungeon.
"Are you here......" Hu Yidi's eyes must be. staring at the staircase in front of him......
It didn't take long for an officer and soldier dressed in an avant-garde garde to appear in everyone's sight, looking at his dress, as if he had some weight of power. When the arrogant and domineering jailer saw this, he immediately stood up, changed his face, and said respectfully: "Chief Long." Why are you here?"
The man known as "Chief Dragon" weighed it for a moment, and then said to the jailer: "Old rules, what about those annoying people who are escorted by the beggars?"
The warden smiled flatteringly. Then he pointed in the direction of the cell.
Chief Long glanced at the hundred or so people in the cell, and then ordered the chief jailer: "Go, open the cell—"
The warden smiled again, then took out the key from his body. Unlocked the cell. After the cell is opened. The imprisoned jailers were ready to rush out in a swarm.
Seeing this, Commander Long immediately commanded the soldiers standing on the stairs behind him and said, "You guys, hurry up and take care of them-"
"Yes—" The two dozen officers and men replied in unison, and then stood up with their knives in hand, and ordered the robbers in front of the cell, and let them come out one by one.
"Get them out of the dungeon, and change them into their old clothes—" Commander Long continued to command.
So, under the escort of these officers and soldiers. All the robbers and Yang Jinkang walked out slowly one by one. But one after the other. Everyone was still crowded, and they all wanted to get out of this damp place.
When the jailer saw this, he couldn't help it, so he had to stand on the side of the cell door.
Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng were the first to go out because they were standing at the front of the cell door. Hu Yidi was in a lower position, he saw the scene in front of him, and smiled lightly: "I didn't expect it to be so easy to be an undercover agent, and I ......woke up after staying like this for an afternoon?"
So, Hu Yidi stood up, patted the ashes on his body, and followed the "big army" to prepare to "get out of prison".
At the door of the cell, the chief jailer had been looking at Chief Long with a flattering smile, not paying attention to the situation in the cell. When Hu Yidi saw this face, he really wanted to rush forward immediately and slap him twice. Thinking of the two jailers just now "taking care" of themselves, Hu Yidi was unwilling to leave like this......
So, Hu Yidi took advantage of the crowd and poured in towards the door of the cell. Walking to the side of the jailer, while the jailer was not paying attention, Hu Yidi smiled secretly, and then stepped down hard......
"Ouch-" The warden immediately came back to his senses and cried out, "which bastard stepped on my foot?"
Seeing this, Hu Yidi immediately retracted his feet, and did not look his head over there again. The chief jailer was made a trick in vain, but the people in front of the door were crowded, and it was impossible to figure out who did it......
One by one, all the robbers slowly left the stairs of the dungeon, guarded by one or two dozen officers and soldiers. Chief Long dragged on to the end, and when he saw that all the robbers had left, Chief Long said to the jailer: "It's still the same as before, and no one here who knows about this afternoon's incident is allowed to mention a word." Whoever dares to say a word will be killed--including you, if the secret is leaked, I will ask you for your head!"
"Yes, yes, Chief Long, ouch yo yo ......" The jailer chief replied as he endured the pain in his feet just now, it seemed that Hu Yidi's moment was really not light.
After saying that, Chief Long carried a knife and followed him upstairs......
The robbers of the Hundred Bandits made it up the stairs and finally got out of the dungeon. At this time, the sky really began to darken, and after being escorted by the officers and soldiers, Chief Long walked in front of everyone again and said to everyone: "Listen, let you out, and take our people to Tiangong Mountain at the end of the day, and talk to your people." If anyone leaks the news, especially to the beggars, I'll ask for your head!"
When all the robbers present heard this, they all trembled, especially in the cold winter, and many of them were only wearing thin prison uniforms and were constantly shivering.
Commander Long immediately called over another of his soldiers and ordered: "Go, find a change of clothes for these people, and be ready to leave Tiangong Mountain at any time-"
"Yes—" the soldier agreed, and then hurried to the prime minister's house with his brothers.
Taking advantage of the shift change, Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng, who were strong in martial arts, took advantage of the chaos to leave the general crowd and hid in the nearby grass with light skills. And Hu Yidi needless to say, he didn't want to be here again in his life, not long after he came out of the dungeon, before Chief Long could speak, he ran away unconsciously......
"It's clear, the officials and thieves are really complicit, it seems that Gang Master Ge's previous guess is really right......" After Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng left, they were on their way back, Yang Jinkang said.
"What should I do now, Brother Yang?" Lu Gongsheng asked.
Yang Jinkang responded while hurrying: "Now that we have not only found out the truth, but also know that they are going to Tiangong Mountain to meet at night, it is better to plan and we can catch them all." Even if those officers and soldiers arrived, we could say that we had found the place where these robbers were hiding, so we came to arrest them, and the people of the government would not dare to join forces with the thieves against us......"
"That's okay, we have to tell the Gang Leader about this matter first......" Lu Gongsheng nodded.
Yang Jinkang also responded: "Well, that's it, you go back to tell the Gang Leader Sù Ge first, and I'll write a letter to inform Elder Xue Daxia of Elder Chang and them...... It's not a moment left, and we've got to hurry—"
So, after discussing the countermeasures, Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng took separate actions......
On Hu Yidi's side, he had discussed with Canglong before, and let Canglong hide in the previous place to observe. Canglong did the same, changed back into Hu Yidi's clothes, Canglong smiled and said to Hu Yidi: "How is it, Brother Hu, the taste of prison is not good, right?"
"Hmph, I'll never go to that place again in my life, and you owe me a favor this time......," Hu Yidi complained, and then sorted out the hanging knife on his clothes.
"Don't worry, I look at it well with you, and there is no shortage of knives-" Canglong knew that Hu Yidi had been worried about his "baby guy", so he followed, "You said that they are going to Tiangong Mountain at night, how about it, should we quietly follow him?"
"Needless to say, this time in the past, we must wipe them out!" Hu Yidi said firmly, but he thought about it again and turned to say, "But we have also said before, even if we catch those robbers and take their nests, it will be an old problem." If the people in the government don't admit it, it's entirely possible to use the excuse that they are also here to arrest the criminals, so that they will do the same trick again, and we will only send these people back to prison one more time......"
"Then what do you say?" Canglong asked again.
"If you want to do it, you have to cut the grass and eradicate the roots-" Hu Yidi said with a firm expression, "Tiangong Mountain is definitely going to go, but before that, you must first solve the prefect ...... of Ming City."
When Canglong heard this, his expression became stern, and then he asked, "Are you really going to kill Song Lianxun and openly oppose the Mengyuan court?"
"Why, don't you dare?" Hu Yidi asked rhetorically, "Anyway, Song Lianxun eats inside and out, and also takes advantage of the war to oppress the people, collude with robbers, and make a lot of hardship, what's wrong with killing this kind of dog official?"
Canglong said very calmly: "It's not that I don't dare, I'm afraid that I will make a big deal about it, and it is likely to implicate the beggars and the innocent people in the city at that time......"
"Don't worry, I'm just going to take Song Lianxun's head, and then name the person who takes his dog official's head, which is me Hu Yidi, so that they will only focus all the spearheads on me alone, and won't affect other ......" Hu Yidi thought about it.
However, after Canglong listened, his eyes suddenly lowered, as if he had thought of something, and his expression was a little sad.
"Brother Canglong, what's wrong with you, why do you put on those looks?" Hu Yidi noticed that Canglong seemed to have some sentimental eyes, not like Canglong's style, so he couldn't help asking.
"It's nothing, I just thought of my previous ......" Canglong laughed to himself for a while, and then said softly, "Once upon a time, I was like you, Brother Hu, I said similar things and did similar things...... After speaking, Canglong shook his head helplessly......
Hu Yidi listened and didn't say anything, but paid more attention to the eyes of Canglong, and seemed to feel that Canglong had a very tangled past...... (To be continued......)
