Chapter 1744 Hunting and Killing

The high walls of the State Prison are wide and thick. There are only two gates, the front and the back, guarded by soldiers. As long as you walk into the courtyard, you will be greeted with an eerie aura.

State capital prisons have always had courtyards within courtyards. After entering the main entrance, there will be several courtyards with stone walls in the courtyard, but the buildings are all neat and orderly.

Severe criminals are held in the center of the prison. On the roads, there will be fire racks erected at intervals. Of course, there will be jailers patrolling the roads, and there will also be jailers in the prison. Regular inspections.

When Pei Ji arrived at the prison for serious criminals, the prison officer in charge had been notified in advance, and had already heard the news and came to greet him.

Outside the heavy prison, two guards were guarding with swords, and the iron gate was locked with a chain. The prison officer ordered the guards to open the chain. Pei Ji stepped inside. It was extremely dark, and a rotten smell hit his face. It came, and there was a bloody smell that was hard to dissipate. Several followers behind Pei Ji couldn't help but raised their hands to cover their noses. Seeing this, the prison officer smiled and said: "The people here are all heinous murderers. , so they are often tortured and interrogated on weekdays...!"

Pei Ji walked down the stone steps. Facing the stone steps was a spacious torture room surrounded by wooden fences. The torture instruments inside were quite complete. Two fire racks stood at the two corners, enclosing the interrogation room. It was very brightly lit.

Apparently they heard someone coming in, and three burly jailers in the interrogation room were already standing in the aisle outside the interrogation room, respectfully waiting for them.

Pei Ji turned to the aisle and looked up. The aisle was not wide, but it was not narrow either. On both sides of the road, there were cells. The surroundings seemed very quiet, but faint sighs could be heard coming from inside. , there was a low, painful moan from time to time, Pei Ji glanced at the prison officer next to him, and asked, "How many people are there?"

"Reporting to the general, there are 34 prisoners here, six of them have been finalized, and the case files have been sent to the Shuoquan Criminal Department's Yamen. As long as the approval is obtained, they can be escorted to Shuoquan for questioning and execution." The prison officer said respectfully.

Pei Ji nodded and asked, "Where is the person I'm looking for?"

"General, please come with me." The prison officer returned and took a torch from a jailer behind him, and led the way. Pei Ji followed behind with a few followers.

Most of the prisoners in the prison were huddled in their cells, and the sudden appearance of the fire did not cause them any commotion. The heavy prison cells were often inspected, and they were used to it.

The road in the prison is very long. Although it is illuminated by the afterglow of the lights in the interrogation room, only a small part can be seen, and the rest of the road is completely dark, accompanied by the smell of rotting blood. , always raises an extremely uncomfortable feeling in anyone who seldom enters a prison.

However, Pei Ji didn't need to go to the end. Halfway through, there was a separate lane on the left and right sides. The prison officer held a torch and turned to the left. Pei Ji followed and walked to the end. Then the prison officer stopped and stood. In front of a prison door, he glanced at Pei Ji and said softly: "This is the man who was ordered to interrogate these few days and suffered a lot of punishments, but he couldn't die."

Pei Ji passed through the wooden fence door, and with the light of the torch in the prison officer's hand, he vaguely saw the prisoner curled up in the corner of the cell. The prisoner's clothes were already in tatters. But it was already stained with blood, and a large area was stained red with blood, but the prisoner seemed to be dead, curled up in the corner of the wall, motionless, and there was a pile of dry grass under his body, lying sideways on the haystack like this.

"Open the cell door." Pei Ji ordered.

The prison officer had already taken the key chain in his hand, stepped forward and opened the iron chain, and then Pei Ji stepped into the room. A servant in armor followed Pei Ji, holding a saber in one hand, and entered the cell .

Pei Ji was two or three steps away from the prisoner, so he stopped, looked around, and finally said: "If you want to get out of here alive, you only need to answer my two questions. If you are not bad, not only can you heal your injury , let you out of prison, and will reward you with a sum of gold and silver, so that you and your family will have no worries for the rest of your life. Thinking about it, you will never have no family, don't you think about them?"

The prisoner faced the wall, curled up and lay on his side in the corner, and did not move. The prison officer had already stepped forward, kicked him, and shouted: "Get up quickly, don't pretend to be dead, the general is asking you something, why not?" Tell me the truth!"

Only then did the prisoner move, and the prison officer kicked him again, and shouted, "Get up!"

The prisoner finally sat up with difficulty, without speaking, and slowly turned around, his face was unkempt, and his messy hair was covered with weeds from the haystack.

He lowered his head, covered his face with his long hair, and with his hands behind his back, Pei Ji asked, "Is Lu Cunxiao really planning to rebel? Where is General Qiu now?"

The prisoner didn't look up and made no sound.

The prison officer sternly said, "Do you want to sit on a chair again if you don't answer honestly?"

What he said "sitting on a chair" naturally refers to the criminal law in the prison.

The prisoner finally muttered something in a low voice, but it was vague, and no one heard it clearly. Pei Ji frowned, and couldn't help taking a step forward, and said in a deep voice, "What did you say?"

The prisoner looked down but saw Pei Ji's footsteps approaching, and suddenly raised his head. Under the firelight, his face was extremely cold, his eyes were sharp and glowing with coldness.

Pei Ji just took a look and knew something was wrong.

How can a dying prisoner who has been tortured and tortured have such sharp eyes?And although this person's clothes were torn and bloodstained, there was no scar on his face.

Then he heard the prisoner let out a low cry, and stood up, but there was a strange sharp weapon in his hand, the sharp weapon was like a long sword, but it was obviously not a long sword, but a steel bar, the thickness of a little finger, Like a thunderbolt, it stabbed at Pei Ji's chest.

There is no doubt that this sharp weapon is hidden in the haystack.

This person moved very fast. At the moment of his movement, Pei Ji's face sank and his body did not move. Almost at the same time, the prison officer had already drawn out his knife, staring at the prisoner with sharp eyes. It was extremely fast, and the speed was by no means weaker than that of the prisoner. When the sharp weapon in the prisoner's hand stabbed at Pei Ji, the prison officer had already slashed at him.

The sharp weapon stabbed at Pei Ji, and the prison officer's big knife seemed to be cutting towards the prisoner at first glance, but after a change of arc, it was already cutting towards Pei Ji in the middle.

Both of them shot faster than lightning, and their cooperation was perfect and seamless. The prisoner stabbed Pei Ji's chest from the front, and the prison officer stabbed Pei Ji from the side. Pei Ji had almost no room to dodge.

It's just that Pei Ji didn't seem to have any intention of dodging. When the prisoner's sharp weapon stabbed him, he raised his hand, opened his palm, and unexpectedly faced the strange sharp weapon with his palm.

The prisoner's eyes showed surprise, and he wondered if Pei Ji wanted to use his palm to block the extremely sharp weapon?Or is it a choice of desperation?

Seeing that the prison officer's knife was about to slash Pei Ji's waist, he suddenly felt a strong wind blowing from the side. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the follower who followed Pei Ji into the prison, bullying him like lightning. He came forward with a speed that was appalling, and the attendant didn't draw his sword, but cut his right hand in the shape of a knife towards the prison officer's shoulder.

The entourage was originally a few steps away from Pei Ji. In the eyes of the two assassins, even if the entourage could react, but with the speed of their attack, the entourage would have no time to react at all. But the fact is the opposite now. The famous attendant not only reacted with an unimaginable reaction force, but also came forward with an unimaginable speed. Before the prison officer's big knife hit Pei Ji's waist, the sword had already cut the prison officer's body. shoulders.

When the prison officer realized that his followers were attacking him, he had no time to react. He cut his shoulder with a palm knife and made a "click" sound. Weakness, and then a heart-piercing pain from the shoulder quickly spread to the whole arm, and the big knife in his hand was already out of hand.

The prisoner didn't care about the prison officer at all at this time. The sharp weapon in his hand was like a poisonous snake, and the sharp point had already pierced Pei Ji's palm. He knew the sharpness of this weapon, let alone a palm of flesh and blood, it was a hard The walls can also be easily pierced.

But when the sharp point pierced Pei Ji's palm, the prisoner was shocked to find that the sharp weapon in his hand could not move forward an inch, as if it was stabbing on a hard copper wall.

How could he know that Pei Ji came from the 36-house family of Taiping Zhengyuan, not only that, but also one of the five core families.

The Five Elements Taoism handed down from the Tiangong General Zhang Jiao was passed down by these five families respectively, and Pei Ji's Pei family is the holder of the Thick Earth Art, and Pei Ji is the only one in the Pei family who inherits the Thick Earth Art. The successor of soil art.

The five elements of Taoism each have their own mysteries. Compared with sharp gold, dead wood, cold water, and raging fire, thick soil has the weakest attack power, but when it comes to defense, the other four elements are completely different. It cannot be compared with the Thick Soil Art, among which the Dead Wood Art also focuses on defense, but it is still slightly inferior to the Thick Soil Art.

Pei Ji's expression was cold, his five fingers were already closed, and he was holding the sharp point in his hand. The prisoner knew that something was wrong, and when he tried to pull it out, the sharp weapon seemed to be tightly bound, but it was difficult for the prisoner to pull it out any more.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise, but it came from the cell on the side. I saw a figure flickering in the next cell, but someone had already split the two wooden bars in the middle, and two figures rushed over from the gap.

The prisoner let out a stern voice: "Kill them!"

Outside the cell door, two of Pei Ji's followers had already rushed in, drew their knives and greeted them, and there was a sound of footsteps in the aisle, and several figures were rushing towards with weapons in their hands. It was the three jailers who had been in the interrogation room before. They walked like flying, and their expressions were stern. Look at their agility, they are definitely not possessed by ordinary jailers.
