The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 1278 Prison Break
Kyoto, Inspection Institute.

Shadow pushed Chen Pingping slowly into the prison of the Inspection Institute, and the guard on duty stopped Chen Pingping.

"Master Dean, why are you here so late?"

"I'm here to interrogate the lowest-level prisoners." Chen Pingping said.

The guard said in embarrassment: "Master Dean, according to the rules, to interrogate the lowest-level prisoners, you must have your token and the emperor's order."

Chen Pingping took out a bright yellow imperial edict and said, "This is a handwritten order. Do you still want to see the token?"

"I dare not." The guard took the imperial edict, opened it and checked it before making way.

"Close the dungeon mechanism immediately." The guard shouted into a megaphone.

The shadow pushed Chen Pingping forward and went directly down to the bottom of the dungeon.

"You guys step back first. Don't come down without my order."

Chen Pingping sent away all the guards in the dungeon, then stuffed a ball of cotton into the megaphone.

"This mechanism was designed by the young lady back then. It can transmit the sounds between the upper and lower levels. However, as long as cotton is used to plug the bamboo tube, no sound will be heard." Chen Pingping turned and said to Shadow.

The shadow untied the black robe and took off the mask, revealing Wang Gang's appearance.

"Ye Qingmei has made a lot of preparations to lock up Sean." Wang Gang laughed as he looked at the familiar "megaphone" in front of him.

"There are three masters lying in ambush in the dungeon. They will never leave without my order. If anyone dares to break into the prison and break into the bottom floor, they will kill Sean to prevent the secret in his head from leaking out." Chen Pingping said.

Chen Pingping pushed his wheelchair to the innermost cell. Wang Gang discovered that the cell doors were made of fine iron and weighed a thousand pounds.

"Please turn the door handle and open the door." Chen Pingping pointed to the mechanism beside the door and said to Wang Gang.

Wang Gang turned the handle as Chen Pingping said, and immediately found that it was quite heavy. Without a sixth-grade cultivation level or above, the cell door could not be opened.

As the iron door slowly opened, a fishy and pungent smell wafted out of the cell.

Chen Pingping pushed the wheelchair into the cell, and Wang Gang followed closely behind.

After entering the cell, Wang Gang saw the person he wanted to see, a man with a haggard face, dirty hair and beard, and tattered clothes.

"Sean." Chen Pingping called softly.

The man slowly opened his eyes and saw that Chen Pingping was very calm.

"What time is it now?" Sean changed into a more comfortable position and fell asleep again, not even wanting to get up.

Wang Gang walked up to Sean and looked closely at the former spy king of the Wei State.

"Who are you?" Xiao En also noticed Wang Gang and asked curiously: "Since Chen Pingping brought you to see me, I think you must be an important person!
Let me guess, you are the son of a noble family, or the son of Emperor Qing."

Wang Gang smiled and said, "Sean, do you want to get out of here?"

Xiao En was obviously stunned for a moment, and Chen Pingping said anxiously: "Wang Gang, I only agreed to let you meet him once, but I didn't say you could take him away."

Wang Gang didn't care what Chen Pingping said and just stared at Sean.

Sean said disdainfully: "Chen Pingping, what tricks are you playing again?"

Wang Gang smiled and said, "Sean, as long as you can recite the Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra, I can take you out and give you freedom."

"Heart method?" Sean asked in surprise: "You want the Tianyi Heart Method?"

Chen Pingping was also very surprised at this time. He originally thought that Wang Gang wanted to see Sean because he wanted to know the secret of the temple, but he didn't expect it was for the "Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra".

Back then, Ye Qingmei brought out three secret books from the temple and created three great masters.

"Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra" is the magical skill that Ye Qingmei gave to Ku He. Sean has also practiced it, but due to his aptitude, he has not broken through to the Grandmaster realm. Otherwise, he would not have been locked up for twenty years like a stray dog.

"Chen Pingping, you actually want the "Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra". Have Nanqing and Beiqi gone to war? Are you going to deal with Ku He?" Sean suddenly said to Chen Pingping with a smile.

Chen Pingping said nothing, just looked at Wang Gang.

Wang Gang stood in front of Chen Pingping and said to Xiao En: "My time is limited. Give me the Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra and I will help you leave the prison."

Chen Pingping was a little anxious and secretly reached for the mechanism on the wheelchair.

At this moment, Wang Gang suddenly pushed back his hand, and Chen Pingping immediately stumbled and fell off the wheelchair.

Sean really doesn't understand now?

Wang Gang laughed and said, "Chen Pingping, you should take a nap first!"

Xiao En asked curiously, "Are you and Chen Pingping not in the same group?" Wang Gang turned around and said with a smile, "Not only are we not in the same group, we even have a grudge against each other."

As he spoke, Wang Gang put his hand on his face, and his bones changed, slowly turning into the appearance of Chen Pingping, which stunned Sean.

"What kind of magic is this that can actually change a person's appearance?" Sean sighed: "I have been locked up for twenty years. What on earth is happening in the outside world?"

Wang Gang picked up Chen Pingping's wheelchair again and sat on it himself.

"I can disguise myself as Chen Pingping, and it will be easy for you to pretend to be a shadow and walk out of the Inspection Institute." Wang Gang's voice gradually became the same as Chen Pingping's.

Sean's eyes lit up and he said, "You can really let me out."

"I have demonstrated my abilities. Next, all you have to do is hand over the Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra, and I will take you away."

Xiao En's eyes flickered, and he looked at Wang Gang from time to time, and then looked at the unconscious Chen Pingping from time to time. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Okay, I'll give you half of the secret method first, and I'll tell you the other half after we leave Kyoto."

Wang Gang smiled and said, "No problem."

"Bring me a pen and paper and I'll write to you," Sean said.

"No need, just recite it! I can remember it once I hear it." Wang Gang said confidently.

Sean recited the second half of "Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra" without hesitation.

He was also a cunning guy, doing the back half first, instead of the front half. Even if Wang Gang remembered the whole thing, he still couldn't practice it.

After a cup of tea, Sean finished reciting. Wang Gang picked out a few sentences in the middle and asked him to recite them again. He said a sentence and Sean took over, and he did not stop until he got it right.

"Okay, good, you didn't play any tricks." Wang Gang took off his black robe with satisfaction, threw it to Sean, and changed into Chen Pingping's clothes.

"My food is poisoned every day. I feel weak all over and can't remove the chains on my hands and feet." Sean raised his hands, revealing a pair of iron fangs.

Wang Gang put his two fingers together and slashed out a sword energy, directly cutting off the iron fangs on Sean's body.

"Grandmaster, the sword energy is released. Are you the successor of Si Gu Jian?" Sean asked, looking at the smooth gap on the Iron Fang.

"Si Gu Jian is not the only one who can transform true energy into sword energy." Wang Gang stopped talking nonsense and put on his clothes quickly.

Sean no longer had any doubts and took off his rags and put on Shadow's clothes.

In order to make it easier for Wang Gang to go to the prison to see Sean, Chen Pingping asked him to pretend to be a shadow. Unexpectedly, this made it easier for Sean to escape.

Shadow is usually wrapped in a black robe and wears a mask on his face, so no one knows his true face. It is very convenient for Sean to pretend to be him.

Things turned out just as Wang Gang had expected. "Shadow" pushed "Chen Pingping" out of the prison, and all the jailers and guards did not notice any flaws. The real Chen Pingping was left in prison by Wang Gang to replace Sean, and he could hold on for a while.

The two walked out of the Inspection Institute without anyone stopping them.

Sean was very excited and his pace became faster and faster. Wang Gang coughed lightly, and Sean suddenly became alert. He immediately slowed down his pace, not daring to reveal any flaws.

After leaving the Inspection Institute, Tie Shu drove a carriage to pick him up.

It was already dawn and the gates of Kyoto were about to open. Sitting in the carriage, Wang Gang was not idle either. He used his own true energy to eliminate all the poison in Sean's body and help him recover his strength.

Wang Gang realized something was wrong as soon as he made a move.

"The Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra does have some tricks. I didn't expect that you have recovered 50% of your strength." Wang Gang praised inwardly.

It turned out that Sean had already recovered some of his skills over the years, but he acted like he was severely poisoned, paralyzing the people in the Inspection Institute.

Sean was always wary of Wang Gang, and he didn't completely relax until the carriage passed the city gate inspection and left Kyoto.

Tie Shu parked the carriage in a dense forest outside Beijing. Wang Gang took out a package and threw it to Sean.

"Here are some dry food and silver, enough for you to get back to Northern Qi." Wang Gang said, "I'll leave the carriage to you as well."

Sean asked, "Why did you save me?"

Wang Gang said: "You give me the Tianyi Dao Heart Sutra, and I will save you from leaving Kyoto. This is just a deal."

Sean asked: "You said your name is Wang Gang? How come I have never heard of you?"

"When you were locked up, I wasn't even born yet. You didn't know that I was normal." Wang Gang said impatiently, "Now that we have left Kyoto, shouldn't you memorize the other half of the secret technique?"

Sean said cautiously: "How do I know if you will go back on your word and take me back after I have memorized the secret technique?"

Wang Gang's face darkened and he grabbed Sean's right hand by the pulse point.

Sean suddenly discovered that he had lost control of his true energy.
