Chapter 354: It's Early in the Morning
As night fell, the dungeon was dark and empty.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
A soldier patted the rough wooden door of the cell and reminded him in a rough voice, "Master Taishou, let's eat!" A bowl of rice and two bamboo sticks that looked like chopsticks were placed between the rough wooden railings.
Seeing that the rickety figure in the corner of the cell moved, the soldier snorted twice, and shouted again: "Open the rice!" Then he walked to the next cell with the rice basket and put in a bowl of coarse grain and green vegetable rice again......
After a while, after putting more than ten bowls of prison rice in a row, the soldier turned around the corner and came to the aisle at the entrance of the dungeon.
The oil lamp was dim, two sheathed swords hung from the wall, a table was placed against the wall, and another soldier sat behind the table, facing the steps leading to the entrance of the cell, clearly a temporary pawn.
There were two dishes and one soup on the table, and the soldier who distributed the food put down the bamboo basket and muttered while sitting down to start the meal: "Good fellow, this dungeon of Taishoufu is really spacious, and there are more than ten of them living in half of the room for each person......"
Another soldier sneered and said, "This is the foresight of the Taishou Lord!"
"How?"
"Hi...... Haven't you heard that this dungeon wasn't that big, but this old man expanded ......and renovated it at the beginning of the year."
The soldier pointed to the wall as he spoke, "Look, this wall is painted, it's called a slippery, and it's seventy or eighty percent new!"
"Tsk...... is worthy of being a person who climbed to the master of Sipin Heyin County, and his brain is really shrewd. Knowing that he himself will come in and live sooner or later, he will renovate the dungeon in advance, so as not to wronged himself!"
"Not really!"
"Hahaha......"
The two of them were pickpocketed on one side. While laughing wantonly.
In the first cell in the corner, Gao Ji, who had been reduced from a taishou to a prisoner under the stairs, listened to the ridicule of the two soldiers, and his wrinkled old face flashed a silent miserable wry smile.
The reason why he expanded and renovated the dungeon in the first place was because every time he came to inspect the prisoners, he couldn't stand the filth and dampness of the dungeon. I didn't expect that now he is still cheaper, at least he can have a dry private room.
With a long sigh, he still carried the shackles and chains in his hands to the cell door. Pick up the long-lost coarse grain bitter vegetable rice and swallow it with difficulty one bite at a time......
The entrance to the dungeon was the end of a corridor, with several torches stuck in the walls. Within the range of the firelight, ten soldiers stood guard.
"Hoo ......"
A strong wind blew. A slender figure flashed in the darkness. Swift towards the dungeon's entrance.
Ten soldiers shouted in unison: "Who is it?"
With a snort, the black-clothed and masked man spilled a puff of silver light from his left hand, shooting vigorously into the sky, and holding a sharp dagger in his right hand, approaching the entrance of the dungeon.
"Uh......"
Six of them were caught off guard and shot down by the silver needle, but four of them still relied on armor for protection or brandished weapons to resist. Luckily, he didn't die, so he pounced on the man in black together.
"Dingding......
Electrifying and flint. The dagger of the man in black conjured up a cold shadow, exchanged a move with each of the four people, and passed by in the blood splash.
"Bang Bang ......"
The four fell to the ground one after another, all bleeding from their throats, and the man in black also took a breath before rushing to the entrance of the dungeon.
The blue brick floor is inlaid with a stainless steel prison door, with chains, and through the gap between the thumb-thick iron rods, you can also see more than 20 steps made of rough ore bars below, but there is no human figure.
The man in black didn't dare to slack off, so he wielded the dagger with all his strength, "ding, ding, ding" three times, and the sparks burst into the spark to cut off the chains and open the heavy prison door.
Walking down the steps quickly, the man in black glanced at the leftovers on the table with his big watery eyes exposed outside the face towel, and continued to run towards the corner quietly.
"Sneer......"
Two bright swords flashed at each other, attacking the man in black one after another, it was the two elite soldiers in the dungeon, after hearing the sound of battle outside, the alert ambushed at the corner, and carried out a sneak attack and interception of the trespasser in the dungeon.
With a snort, the man in black swung the dagger in his right hand, swinging a knife to the upper body, and counterattacking the throat of the knife maker, while she kicked the knife side of the knife below, and slashed the shoulder of the knife maker with a palm of her left hand.
"Snort...... Ponto!"
One soldier spurted blood from his throat and fell to the ground weakly, while the other soldier was slapped in the shoulder, bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and stumbled into the corner of the wall with a miserable grunt.
The man in black walked two steps quickly, his eyes fell into the first cell, and after seeing the rickety figure of the old lady guarding Gao Ji, he couldn't help but call out in surprise: "Grandpa, come over and ......."
"You are ......" Gao Ji was stunned for a moment, then his cloudy old eyes lit up, and he was also surprised: "You are Yi'er!" paused, and hurriedly shouted: "Yi'er, you go quickly, go quickly!"
The soldier in the corner of the wall crouched on the ground, his eyelids rolling, but he did not get up to fight, but quietly listened to the conversation between the man in black and the old lady.
The man in black said coquettishly: "Grandpa...... I'm here to save you, come with me!" he said and waved the dagger with all his might, but when he heard the crisp sound of "Ding Ding Ding ......", the dagger slashed the iron chains of the prison door.
The old lady said eagerly: "Yi'er, the Emperor of the Great Zhou is staying in the Taishou Mansion, and there are many masters of the guards, how can you save me alone?"
Yi'er, listen to grandpa, let's go, it's too late!"
"Ding!"
There was another crisp sound, and the chain of the cell door finally broke.
The man in black raised his foot and kicked open the cell door, "Let's go, grandpa......" Despite the old lady's sigh, he forced him to run to the exit of the dungeon.
The poor old lady was old, her legs and feet were weak, and she didn't know martial arts, so she staggered all the way......
A moment later, the soldier lying in the corner of the wall struggled to get up.
"Hiss......", the sharp pain of the broken bone in his left shoulder made him gasp constantly, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.
But he staggered out of the dungeon, groping with his right hand in the belt of one of his fallen comrades in the hallway, and taking out a small bamboo tube.
His left shoulder was so injured that he couldn't move, so he could only bite the red rope exposed at the upper end of the bamboo tube with his teeth, and then hold the bamboo tube high with his right hand.
"Whew...... Bang!"
The bamboo tube spewed out a spark, straight into the air, bursting into a striking red firework, visible for miles.
The entire Taishou Mansion suddenly became noisy......
After a while, countless torches lit up in the house, and there were many people, patrolling and searching everywhere.
In a wing room in the west courtyard, the sound of dressing sounded in the dark.
A moment later, the window was pushed open, revealing a honey-colored tulle pajamas, with a plain face of You Chuhong.
Looking at the place where the fireworks dissipated, listening to the footsteps of the nearby courtyard gradually expanding, she frowned and muttered, "Warning in the middle of the night, what's the matter with the guards?"
After thinking about it, she turned around and walked to the couch, stretched out her hand and pushed the red ** ** figure on the couch who was still lying comfortably, and called, "Hurry up...... Looks like something happened!"
Shi Zhixuan turned over and said lazily: "The sky is falling because the emperor is on top of it, what are we anxious about?...... Let's go to bed and go to sleep, it's still early!"
You Chuhong pinched his white shoulders hatefully, and said coquettishly: "In case something happens to the emperor......"
Shi Zhixuan snorted: "If the emperor is dead, since someone comes to report the funeral, it is useless for you to be anxious;
So, rest assured......"
You Chuhong rolled her eyes, raised her foot and kicked his ass, and snorted angrily: "Get up for me, don't rely on me to play dead on the couch, go back to your own room!" (To be continued.) )
