Chapter 222 Death
The moon rises to the willows, and the Guanyue Tower is full again. With the help of the captain and Bai Jiu, Shi Yiguang changed into a simple men's clothing, wore a tall cloak and sneaked out of the Guanyue Tower, and got on a new carriage that had arrived soon.
Di Fan was also in the carriage, wearing a capable embroidered python robe and a lion-headed sword around his waist, which was quite good. This kid dressed up well, and if he grew up, he would definitely be a romantic young man.
Di Fan looked at Shi Yiguang carefully and confirmed that it was not a fake. He immediately smiled: "You are really here. You are so loyal. For the sake of two friends who happened to meet, I elope with me, a famous slut."
"What's the matter? Who's eloping with you?" Shi Yiguang said angrily: "Stop talking."
"You are really brave enough, so you are not afraid that I will lie to you. You will only kidnap you here, and then sell you to other scholars, or drag you to the mansion as a concubine!" Di Fan asked with a smile.
"Hmph, hum!" Shi Yiguang snorted disdainfully, pointed to the two 'guards' behind him who were not astonishingly beautiful, and said with confidence: "Do you know who these two are? My mother has given me martial arts masters, one of them can fight thousands or eight hundred."
"This is Hunyuan Pili's hand Dugu Qiubai, a set of dragon, elephant waves, can tear tigers and leopards and hammer the elephant to death. This jade-faced man is even more powerful, proficient in various martial arts skills, such as the Blue Sea Tide Sound Palm, and the Desolate Palm, which can be played out at will."
"Just your small arms and legs, they can even breathe you." Shi Yiguang said with a bluffing sound.
"Is this amazing, a martial arts master?" Di Fan cooperated with great surprise.
Shi Yiguang hummed twice, looked back at Bai Jiu and Captain who were disguised, and calmed down a little. With these two bigwigs escorting, there shouldn't be too big problems.
The carriage first walked along the Imperial City Road, and after walking straight for most of the incense sticks, we arrived at the Vermilion Bird Avenue, and drove the imperial city Zhuque Gate to the south of the Chang'an City Gate. After about half an hour, we finally arrived at our destination.
"This is Jingshanfang, next to it is Jing'anfang, to the south is Lanlingfang, and to the west is Chongyefang. Look, the walls in Chongyefang are the longest, and the highest doorman is my family." Di Fan looked like an ungrown child, showing off his good things to his friends.
"Yeah, yeah." Shi Yiguang responded, but he didn't care. Is this house with a maximum height of only three floors very generous? What should be a beehive with hundreds of floors underground in the academy bee?
Either she, Shi Yiguang, or she brought out the most luxurious palace in Chang'an, it was not a huge scale of one-tenth of the beehive, and the productivity of the two worlds was completely unequal.
Shi Yi's light looked out from the small gap exposed by the curtain.
"Where is the prison?"
"The entrance to the dungeon is Jingshanfang, but the main part of the dungeon is not only Jingshanfang, but probably needs to extend to the Jinganfang below." Di Fan pointed to a house in the distance and said, "There is Jinganfang there."
"Is the dungeon big?" Shi Yiguang asked in confusion.
"If it is just a private prison in the Imperial Heavenly Prison, it should be only 250, but there are more than the private prisons in the Imperial Heavenly Prison. There are many dungeons underground in this area, including Dali Temple, Tianshi Mansion, Jingzhao Mansion, temporary detention from the Ministry of Justice, and even some of the inner court prisons that cannot be kept in the reincarnation."
Shi Yiguang listened carefully, and the captain behind her and senior Bai Jiu lowered their heads, expressionless, as if the dungeon looks had nothing to do with them. But Shi Yiguang was very clear, these two must be pretending, but in fact his ears were probably standing up long ago.
"The prisons of each department are separated. Your Majesty only distributed the prisons of the Imperial Heavenly Prison to my family, so we can only go to the dungeon of the Imperial Heavenly Prison. You must follow me later. Don't run around. If you run into the prisons in other areas, don't talk about you, even I will be in trouble." Di Fan told seriously.
"Oh oh oh, don't run around." Shi Yiguang agreed very simply: "If you don't want to explain, I will follow you." Shi Yiguang said timidly.
"Just know!" Di Fan nodded, then took the lead in jumping out of the carriage. Shi Yiguang and the two "bodyguards" behind him also jumped down.
I followed Di Fan into a big mansion and then got to the destination again. It was an iron cage three or four meters long, wide and high, hung on the pulley by thick iron chains. There was a faint flame under the iron cage.
"There is actually an elevator!" Shi Yiguang immediately recognized the purpose of the iron cage.
"What is an elevator?" Di Fan asked in confusion, then pointed to the iron cage and said, "This is a horse ladder, and you can take us to the fifth floor where the Imperial Heaven Prison is located."
"Oh oh oh." Shi Yiguang knew it, thinking that this was probably driven by horsepower.
Di Fan took the lead in and Shi Yiguang and two "bodyguards" followed. Di Fan grabbed the iron bell next to him and shook it five times, and the big iron cage slowly descended. The firelight around him suddenly darkened, and the surrounding atmosphere gradually became solemn.
Shi Yiguang didn't know what was there on the first, second and third floors. He just felt that it was not a good place inside. The ladder didn't stop, and there was a faint smell of blood and rotten smell, which made Shi Yiguang unable to help but cover his nose.
Starting from the fourth floor, this underground prison is a bit unique. The first three prisons are separated by a soil layer of only half a meter wide, but there are seven or eight meters of artificial soil layers between the third floor and the fourth floor.
The fourth floor gives people a feeling that it is far from the first three floors. It has changed the bloody and darkness before. With a quick glance, Shi Yiguang saw blue night pearls inlaid on the fourth floor walkway, making the corridor linger in a blue halo, as if he was in the blue underwater world.
"This is the prison of the Tianshi Mansion. Without the handwriting of the Tianshi Mansion or the emperor's edict, no one is allowed to enter. Even I cannot do so. If I set foot without authorization, the salary will be punished at the least, and the family will be executed at the worst."
"So it's from the Tianshi Mansion." Shi Yiguang still had some clarity in his heart.
Tianshi Mansion, the Imperial Heavenly Superintendent, and the Shenwu Army, as the official blood-born organization of the Tang Dynasty, is naturally very mysterious and cannot be accessed by ordinary powerful people. Judging from the extent of the Tang Dynasty's concealment of blood-born, it is probably only those at the top of the empire who are qualified to know.
Although Di Fan's son was a prince of the current dynasty and had a first-rank official title, he was just a second-generation ancestor who was grateful for his ancestors and could not squeeze into the center of power in the Tang Dynasty, so he naturally was unlikely to understand the Tianshi Mansion.
But then again, what the hell is this Imperial Heaven Prison? How could it be declared bankrupt for no reason? And even if it is bankrupt, how could the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty send the review and handover task of such a mysterious prison to a pair of "street sons and sons".
It's really puzzling.
The ladder went down ten meters and finally arrived. It was a dark corridor with a white ore embedded in the walls, emitting a faint fluorescence.
As soon as the ladder stopped, a few iron-armored guards guarding outside came up and bowed respectfully to Di Fan, "Second Young Master, the young master told his subordinates to follow you, and submit the treatment results of each criminal to his foresee."
Di Fan called Shi Yiguang out of the ladder, glanced at the armored soldiers next to him, and frowned and said, "Isn't this an errand that my father got from His Majesty? Why did my elder brother intervene in?"
"Report to the second young master, in fact, the court wanted to hand over this errand to the young master. But because the young master was weak and could not bear the fatigue, he entrusted it to the young master." The soldier responded respectfully.
"Oh, that's right." Di Fan knew it and pointed forward, "I understand, you can lead the way."
"Yes." The soldier nodded and led the way in front of him.
Di Fan followed behind, Shi Yiguang, the captain, and senior Bai Jiu followed behind.
For some reason, Di Fan changed his hippie smile in front of him and became silent. He just followed the soldier forward. After half a cup of tea along the way, no one spoke.
Along the way, apart from the sound of footsteps, there were the sound of vague breathing among the group, which made Shi Yiguang very uncomfortable. He was wary of the surroundings, for fear that Di Fan would suddenly jump into the wolf, so he would attack them when he came over with his backhand.
Shi Yiguang peeked at the captain and senior Bai Jiu, and found that they were also a little serious, and they seemed not to believe Di Fan very much.
After walking along the bluestone aisle for a while, Di Fan finally broke the peace and asked casually: "How is my elder brother's condition?"
"Young Master Qi, the young master's health has improved a lot, and his appetite has improved a lot recently. He can even get out of bed and walk around the garden for a few times."
"Can you get out of bed?" Di Fan looked a little ugly when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "It was him who asked you to say this to me? It is already a blessing that his body will not die. How could he get out of bed?"
The soldier stopped talking, as if he had agreed to Di Fan's guess.
"How is he?" Di Fan asked again: "Tell me honestly."
The soldier hesitated for a while and finally said helplessly: "The situation of the young master has not deteriorated. He still has to sleep for eight or nine hours a day. Even if he wakes up, he will be mostly confused."
Di Fan was silent for a long time before sighing slowly.
Shi Yiguang kept listening to Di Fan’s conversation with the soldier. He was surprised. Judging from their meaning, Di Fan actually had an older brother, who seemed to be a sick man, who knew how to sleep all day long.
Such a sick man actually wants to inherit the title of Duke of Huai State. This is very strange. You should know that Shi Yiguang has seen Di Fan and Duke of Huai State, which is simply more like a "father, kind and son, filial". He is a man who goes shopping in brothels together.
Di Fan, who was so happy to me, was not a young master, but a sick man.
There is a story in Duke Huai's family.
Shi Yiguang was so smart that he accidentally hit the back of the captain in front of him. When he looked out, he found that the passage had reached its end. In front of him was a thick stone door with strange patterns.
Di Fan took out a token engraved with the appearance of a seismometer and pressed it into the groove corresponding to the stone door. The stone door slowly opened, and then what came into Shi Yiguang's eyes were more than a dozen heavily armored soldiers covered with iron armor. Behind them were cells separated by purple and golden railings, and prisoners in white prison clothes were locked in the cell.
The prison of the Imperial Heaven Prison was so simple that it got in, and Shi Yiguang was a little dazed.
"Get the roster over." Di Fan ordered.
A heavily armored soldier quickly touched a blue book with both hands.
"You can find it yourself." Di Fan handed the account book to Shi Yiguang.
Shi Yiguang was flattered and quickly held the account book, searching for the names of the people in rows. At the same time, he secretly used a pinhole camera under the hat to capture the information of the account book and passed it to the captain and Bai Jiu behind him.
After turning a few pages, Shi Yiguang finally found a familiar name: "Xuanyuan Hao." He was a genius who came out in the past five years of Jixia Academy. Although he was only a freshman, he was very powerful.
Dongbaijiu, Xihaotian, Nanliuxing, Beiqingyu, Zhongzhang Sanqing, Jixia's genius who stood out in recent years. Among them, Xihaotian refers to Xuanyuan Hao. Shi Yiguang had seen him fight and easily defeated her representative of the swordsmanship in her freshman semester.
Senior Bai Jiu, one of the two bodyguards behind Shi Yiguang, is Dong Bai Jiu, one of the five masters.
Continue to turn down, and find another familiar name, Nuwa Wenyu, and Bei Wenyu among the five masters.
However, unlike Xuanyuan Hao, Nuwa Wenyu's name was drawn with a small × with a red pen.
"How come there is a ×!" Shi Yiguang asked in confusion.
"Those who were drawn by red pens died after being punished." The heavy armored soldier next to him explained calmly.
"Dead?" Shi Yiguang was stunned in the spot for a moment.
Nuwa whispered, a junior high school girl, the awakened contract is over fifty [Su Daji], a veritable proud daughter, the most dazzling girl in the party, and the goddess of countless juniors and seniors. Shi Yiguang still has her blue clothes in her mind, giggling and smiling. Why did such a living person disappear because he got a name?
Shi Yiguang instantly realized that death was really close to her.
Shi Yiguang turned back again, but found that there were many red hooks behind her, several of which were impressed by her. They were descendants of blood-born families from Jiuzhou, listed there one by one, with unusually eye-catching names.
Shi Yiguang continued to flip down, and finally found the two lives she was looking for at the end of the account book.
