Chapter 72

into the night.

Jiuji, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes, and he quietly came to the wooden fence on the right.

There was a big unkempt man scratching the itch, apparently not asleep either.

"Brother... are you there?" Jiuji greeted proactively.

The unkempt strong man looked at Jiuji with a strange expression, and then moved his body to the wooden fence on Jiuji's side.

"Aren't you blind?"

"I heard voices, I guess you haven't slept yet."

"What's the matter?" the strong man asked strangely.

"Brother... do you know when the iron prison started to lock people?"

"Hmm... I'm afraid it's been about ten days. I haven't counted those who have been locked up here in the dark." The strong man scratched his head and said.

"So you all ate that guy's leftovers for more than ten days?"

"Yeah... tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tuck

"Oh... Then I will continue to give you my share tomorrow." Jiuji said with a smile.

"Hey...you just came in blind. You don't know the meat is good. There's nothing wrong with the leftover soup. It tastes great." The strong man licked his mouth and said.

Jiuji smiled and didn't answer, but fell on the stone wall and thought quietly...

The man in the iron mask, ten days...

About half a month ago, the big monster caused chaos, the Minjiang River diverted, and Kyushu was in chaos.

Only one or two days later, the jade box outside Linjiang City was born, and it was unknown who had it in the hands of.

When the imperial court found out through various channels that the jade box had fallen into Du Wanfeng's hands, Du Wanfeng had long since disappeared.

It is very likely that Du Wanfeng will stay in Linjiang City, so about five days ago, the government office issued a notice that anyone who provided information about Du Wanfeng to the imperial court would be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold, and those who handed over a jade box to the imperial court would be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold.

a few days later...

The imperial court did not receive any news at all, so the imperial court simply organized police and martial artists to turn Linjiang City upside down...

But even so, there was still no clue of Du Wanfeng.

They missed a blind spot...

The government prison.

If Jiuji's guess is correct, the man in the iron mask of the government prison is probably Du Wanfeng.

At least the timeline fits perfectly...

The next day.

The cell leader, Xing Biao, went to the prison with a bowl of fine noodles before he had breakfast.

When passing by a certain cell, the head of the cell, Xing Biao, paused slightly and looked at the cell on the right with a strange expression.

"Blind man... What are you doing lying at the door so early in the morning with tears in your eyes?"

"I didn't kill anyone! I'm innocent! I was wronged and imprisoned. When will I be wronged?" Jiuji said emotionally.

"Are you blind, are you sick? You are temporarily being detained. In two days, Mr. Cao will open the court to interrogate you. After the verdict, you can be wronged." Xing Biao, the cell leader, went to the prison with fine noodles iron gate.

Although the mind-eye Gu secreted venom, Jiuji did not burst out tears.

It's still early now, it's better to be poisoned in the afternoon...

Around noon.

Li Xiaocui came to visit the prison again.

"Xiao Cui...I didn't kill anyone, I was wronged!" Jiuji said emotionally, pulling Li Xiaocui's hand.

"Master, I know you are wronged."

"Xiao Cui...you have to take good care of my parents for me. I may not come back for a while, so you don't have to worry about me." Jiuji said with something in his words.

"Master, I will definitely do my filial piety on your behalf."

"You will move to live with your parents tonight."

"Ah."

"Remember, don't worry about me. I was wronged. I believe Mr. Cao will judge the case impartially. I will come back sooner or later."

"Master, I believe in you, you will definitely come back."

……

evening.

The head of the cell, Xing Biao, carried sumptuous dishes through the alleyway in the middle, passing one dungeon after another.

When Xing Biao passed by Jiuji's cell, a few crystal clear tears flew out.

The head of the cell, Xing Biao, felt that something could be bounced over. He turned his head to look to the right, and once again saw Jiuji with tears in his eyes.

"Why are you crying again?" the prison chief Xing Biao asked.

Hearing someone's question, the blind man immediately got excited, and he could only hear him wailing, "There is no snow for nothing, the cold wind blows the sky all night! I am wronged, my lord! I am just a blind man who can't even walk straight. , how can I kill someone?"

"Although you are sick, you blind man is quite talented, and you can even compose poems. However, crying and howling are forbidden in prison. If you continue to howl like ghosts and wolves, I will definitely punish you in a short while." The prison boss Xing Biao threatened viciously.

"Woooooo..." Jiuji pressed his hands on the wooden fence and cried in pain.

Every time he came here, the blind man would tear up his eyes. It seemed that he should have been wronged, but he was wronged, and Xing Biao didn't care about this matter at all.

Opening the iron gate with a key, the prison head Xing Biao sent a plate of delicious food into the underground iron prison.

As usual, Xing Biao stood by the man in the iron mask and waited for him to eat.

The man who lifted the iron mask took a sip of the wine, as if he was relishing the taste of the wine, and then began to pick up vegetables...

Only took two bites...

The body of the man in the iron mask twitched, and he pointed to the prison head Xing Biao and uttered two words with difficulty.

"poisonous……"

Then the neck fell over.

Cell leader Xing Biao stood there with a dazed expression on his face.

This man in the iron mask was personally told by Mr. Cao that he must take good care of it. If there is any mistake, not only will he be dismissed from his post, but he will also be thrown into prison and given a heavy sentence!
Xing Biao's life is so nourishing because he relies on the position of prison head. It can be said that he is earning a lot of money every day. His dismissal is already his life. How can he get rid of this face when he goes to the prison and lets his former colleagues manage him! ?

Rather than that, it would be better to die.

Cell leader Xing Biao touched the man in the iron mask's nose with trembling hands.

"He's not dead! He's still breathing." Xing Biao finally fell back with his heart hanging.

what should I do now! ?

The head of the cell, Xing Biao, had sweat on his forehead.

Mr. Cao specifically explained that no information about the man in the iron mask would be allowed to leak out, that is to say, he could not invite a doctor to come in to see it, and he could only tell Mr. Cao about it secretly.

but……

Cell head Xing Biao looked at the table of wine and food on the table, which he personally brought in...

If I report this matter to Mr. Cao, Mr. Cao will definitely ask where did the food and wine come from?
Who is responsible for bringing it in?
Who poisoned it?

The crux of the matter is who poisoned the food and drink! ?
wrong.

The key is who to ask to take the blame?

Cell leader Xing Biao suddenly flashed seven or eight figures in his mind.

Everything is not bad, and finally the picture in my mind is fixed on a blind man.

inappropriate!

That Jiuji is a blind man, this obvious behavior of throwing blame is simply an insult to Shangfeng's IQ, and it is impossible to find a blind man if he blames anyone.

The head of the prison, Xing Biao, paced back and forth in the iron prison, and suddenly his expression changed.

There is another possibility!
That is, the food and wine are not poisonous at all, and the man in the iron mask fainted because of other reasons, such as practicing martial arts and going crazy.

The more Xing Biao thought about it, the more he felt that things should be like this...

The food and wine were delivered by Jiuxiang Tower every day, and they had never been poisoned before, so it was naturally impossible to poison them today, but he himself brought the food and wine down, and he did not cheat others along the way, so it was naturally impossible to be poisoned.

The most important thing is that the man in the iron mask has a problem with his own body. His fainting has nothing to do with his penny, and he can completely shirk responsibility.

There is no snow for nothing, and the cold wind blows all over the sky overnight.

I, Xing Biao, was the one who was wronged.
