Chu Tianci heaved a sigh of relief, endured the pain and pulled out the iron nail from his chest and replied with a smile.

"If I had known this, I wouldn't have to pierce it so deep, hehe, it really hurts!"

Xiao Qi didn't expect that Chu Tianci could still laugh now, and said with lingering fear while wiping the cold sweat off his head.

"You guessed right, Xu Tianji was imprisoned in the dark building, and I heard from a former prisoner that Xu Tianji has been imprisoned in Jiangdao Prison for more than 50 years, and most of the people who came in with him are dead. , Xu Tianji has been locked in the black building since he came in."

Chu Tianci smiled gratefully at Xiao Qi.

"Thank you! Thank you for telling me. I know it's difficult for you, but I can't help it. I basically knew what you just said before I came in. Let me tell you something I don't know."

"Didn't I tell you before that if you want to get along in prison, you need to be smart and diligent, but these two characteristics don't apply to the black building. What kind of people are locked in the dark building? People who screw their heads on their hands for fun, even if they are dragged out and shot, it is just a matter of adding a hole in the back of their heads. These people's faces and eyes can't even blink, let alone worry about fear, so They don't have to pay for the prison guards at all, they can do whatever they want, they don't fear anything, anyway, they don't have so many scruples after death, so in Jiangdao Prison, the people in the No. [-] and No. Hate and fear, even though this is the case, because there is no connection and common ground between the three prison areas, so basically I can't meet these people, so there is nothing to worry about, but... But Xu Tianji is an exception!"

"Exception?" Chu Tianci asked in surprise, frowning. "Why...why is he an exception?"

"Do you know how Xu Tianji got in?"

Chu Tianci shook his head and answered in a dazed manner.

"do not know!"

"I don't know, and I believe no one knows. Anyway, there are many rumors outside, but none of them are reliable, but I only found out after I went in. Although Xu Tianji was locked in the dark building, his treatment was very high. It is different from other prisoners. He has a separate cell and lives alone. Other prisoners wear handcuffs, but he does not. I heard that Xu Tianji has no other hobbies, except drinking, and his drinking It was all sent to him by the prison Jiangshan himself. What kind of treatment is there to drink alcohol in the prison! And it was sent by the warden. Sometimes Jiangshan would have a few drinks with Xu Tianji. The prisoners in the black building had to work Yes, and the labor intensity is much greater than ours, but Xu Tianji doesn’t use it, and basically stays in his cell every day without doing anything.”

Chu Tianci also took out an unfinished cigarette butt, put it in his mouth and asked thoughtfully.

"Didn't you say that other people in the black building can't get in at all? Then how do you know these things?"

"I've seen Xu Tianji!"

Just as Xiao Qi said the words, the cigarette butt at the corner of Chu Tianci's mouth fell to the ground, and he turned his head excitedly to ask.

"Have you met Xu Tianji?!"

Xiao Qi nodded triumphantly and continued to speak in a low voice.

"When I first came in, the black building was expanding the outer high wall, and the prison side transferred some better performers from the No. The painting of the walls, the outer walls of the black building you see now are all painted by us. For this reason, I stayed there for almost three months. It was also brushed out, so I was transferred to the dark building again, and I also saw Xu Tianji at that time."

Chu Tianciri nodded thoughtfully and asked eagerly.

"What kind of person is he?"

Xiao Qi didn't seem to notice Chu Tianci's change and said in a leisurely manner.

"I have finally opened my eyes. To be honest, during that period of time, I was worried every day. I was afraid that the people inside would seize the opportunity to beat me because of my mistakes. For the people outside, the people in the dark building were full of deep feelings. Hostility, but the more I was afraid, the more guilty I was, and finally I did something wrong. It just so happened that this mistake was on Xu Tianji's body. Before I went in, I had heard rumors about him. Even the fiercest and most stubborn criminals in the black building will become respectful and respectful in front of Xu Tianji, so at the beginning I kept thinking that Xu Tianji should be a very fierce, cruel and cruel person, but it turned out that after waiting It was only when I saw him that I realized that this idea was so wrong. When I walked into Xu Tianji's cell tremblingly, he was reading a book. When he saw me, he stood up very politely to make room for me, but there was no need. In other words, to be honest, I was even a little disappointed with Xu Tianji at the time. He was just an ordinary old man, the kind who would quickly get lost in the crowd when he walked on the street. There was nothing special about him. It’s hard to connect him with the rumored Xu Tianji, and I even thought I went to the wrong room, but the prison guard who brought me in with him was very polite to him! It should be said to be respectful. Prisoners are afraid of prison guards, but I see a lot of them. Yes, but it’s the first time I’ve seen prison guards treat prisoners like this, and I’ve also noticed a very strange thing.”

The more Xiaoqi talked, the more Chu Tianci felt that Xu Tianji was mysterious and incomprehensible, so he hurriedly asked.

"What strange thing?"

"Xu Tianji's cell is actually not locked! I've checked it secretly repeatedly, and it's really not there. That is to say, Xu Tianji can go anywhere he wants in the black building, as long as he doesn't stay within the range of the black building, he is completely free to move around. of!"

Listening to Xiao Qi's description there is still a prisoner under strict supervision, as if Xiao Qi is describing to himself an old man strolling in the dark building like his own backyard.

Chu Tianci leaned against Xiao Qi, took the match in Xiao Qi's hand and asked.

"And then... What else did you see later?"

"Although I'm just a weak old man in front of me, I don't know why I'm still afraid of him. He... has an indescribable majesty in him, as if no one can resist and provoke him." Xiao Qi lit a cigarette and took a deep breath He whispered in awe. "Maybe it's because I'm afraid of him in my heart, so I don't do things well and make mistakes all the time. I remember that Xu Tianji's cell was very clean. This kind of cleanliness is completely different from our cell. It’s not like a prison at all, but like a small room of your own, with books, lamps, and a table... Oh! I saw a few bottles of wine by his bedside, by the way, Xu Tianji has a My own bed! A bed in the true sense, although not very big, is better than the place we sleep in. I had to move the bed because I had to paint the walls. I saw Xu Tianji’s bed under the bed during the move. They are all books, but they seem to be some ancient books that I have never seen before, with gossip or something drawn on them."

Chu Tianci's fingers trembled slightly, and Xu Tianji saw that it should be a book on metaphysics and Taoism. In this way, Xu Tianji is also a fellow.
