Chapter 23
If these two soldiers alone are easy to deal with, after all, the enemy is in the open, she hides in the dark, and she has always been used to assassination, even if these two soldiers have some strength, she still believes in her skills and speed.
Xiao Muyan held the dagger hidden in her sleeve in her hand, ready to wait for the opportunity, as long as the two soldiers came towards her, she would strike first and win by surprise.
"Don't be suspicious, how can there be other people besides us on the tower here? I think it was clearly blown by the wind just now. This ghostly weather is full of wind and rain. Even if there is a sudden gust of wind, it is not surprising. .I think I'm a bone-headed man who guards this gloomy dungeon every day, and sooner or later he will be boiled to death by this ghostly weather."
"Maybe I was wrong. Don't complain. Let's go, let's go. It's almost time for the changing of the guard. If the captain hears it later, it will be a good punishment. Be careful not to eat and walk around."
"Forget it, I have no other good way out, and I still have to count on this job to fill my stomach. Let's go, after the last round of patrolling, I can go home and sleep well."
The voices of the two soldiers gradually faded away and gradually disappeared in their ears.
Xiao Muyan glanced under the inner wall, the wall formed a circle, and in the center of the circle was a torture instrument made of wood, and various torture instruments were scattered around.
There are two long corridors and a few small doors inside the circle. Three to five torches and a few kerosene lamps are lit in the dark and gloomy environment, and there are no soldiers guarding them. There are no soldiers guarding them.
Xiao Muyan turned around neatly, turned over and jumped off the inner wall, and landed on the cold and wet ground in the blink of an eye.As soon as it fell to the ground, the set of torture instruments was completely and clearly displayed in front of him. It was covered with mottled blood, and some of the blood was old, as if it had been integrated into the iron instrument, and it was no longer discernible. There is no scarlet color, only patches of black.
I don't know how many people who have been imprisoned in the prison have been tortured. The ancient criminal law is sometimes tens of times stricter than the modern one, and there are all kinds of criminal laws.
Xiao Muyan shook her head, jumped into the dark side of one side, and carefully observed the two long corridors. These two long corridors are like two lines, separating the world and dividing it into four entrances. There are two torches at each entrance.
If the judgment is correct, there are prison cells one after another in this spacious long corridor, but it is not known which corridor Gu Lianxi was locked in.It would be impossible to search all four corridors. After all, she was completely unaware of the situation in the corridors, and there was no guarantee that she would not encounter guard soldiers. If there were too many people, it would be difficult to deal with.
What she wants to do is absolutely safe, and she must not reveal her identity, so she has to choose the safest method.
Small footsteps came from the long corridor. Xiao Muyan's expression was fixed, and he listened carefully. The footsteps sounded one after the other, light and slow, and the person walking in front stepped hard. Urgent, the voice is extremely heavy, it must be a burly and strong man.The sound of the footsteps that followed was slightly slower, the footsteps were flimsy and weak, and the steps were small. He was a person of extremely thin stature, but the right foot was obviously stronger than the left foot, as if he was carrying a heavy object in his right hand, so walking was a bit awkward. strenuous.
Just hearing the footsteps, Xiao Muyan felt that the person behind him was not a soldier.
Although the place where Xiao Muyan was standing was in the shadows, he might not be able to see it from the top of the city tower, but this round building was not a good place to hide. Once these two people came here, they would definitely find themselves.
With a quick turn of his eyebrows, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a small door next to him. Above the small door was a small semi-circular window surrounded by iron fences, revealing the faint light of candles. In the middle of the hut was a wooden A white candle stood on the old gray-black wooden table, and the candle tears piled up into a hill at the bottom of the wax dish.Beside the candle is a large brown teapot and several white porcelain teacups covered with tea stains.
Presumably this is the place where the prison chief rests, the voice in his ear gradually grows louder, the sound of footsteps in the distance is getting closer and closer, Xiao Muyan's eyes turn around, and he can only hide behind this small door for a while.Thinking of this, Xian Xiansu grabbed the handle of the small door and pushed hard, but the iron door did not budge.
I don't know how many doors I opened in my previous life, including the most advanced and high-tech door locks. Now such the most primitive iron lock is naturally no problem in Xiao Muyan's eyes.
The sound of footsteps was close to her ears, she made a decisive decision, tore off a jet-black strand of hair from her head, wrapped it around her fingertips, and then put the strand of hair into the rusty keyhole.The black hair entered the keyhole, and Xiao Muyan twirled it a few times with his fingers skillfully.
With a click, the door lock made a dark sound, the iron door opened slightly, Xiao Muyan pushed open a crack in the door, and jumped into it.She blew out the candles on the table, closed the corner behind the door, held her breath, and listened to the movement outside the door.
Accompanied by the sound of approaching footsteps step by step, thick and thin voices came over.The man with a rough voice said: "You enter this hut and wait for a while, I will go to the small library to get the key, and then I will go with you to deliver food to that old Gu Lianxi."
Xiao Muyan's eyes flickered, and she pricked up her ears unconsciously. She was still distressed at not being able to think of a good idea, but now she sees the light of day, and there is someone leading the way. It's really good luck. It seems that she and this grandfather still have some fate .
He replied in a thin voice: "Thank you, sir, it just so happened that the head of our dining room, in order to thank you for his care all the time, specially asked me to send you a roast chicken and a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, a small gift , I hope the official will accept it with a smile."
There was unconcealable joy in the rough voice, "Why are you so polite in the dining room? We work together in the sky prison, so we are a family. You cook for the prisoners in this cell all day long. It’s also not easy.”
"Thank you for your understanding, the official. This can be regarded as a little care from our dining room, and it is a credit to the official."
While talking, the two of them stood in front of the door of the hut where Xiao Muyan was hiding. The prisoner reached out his thick and dark fingers and touched a key at his waist. He was holding the bronze key and looking for the lock on the door, but he hadn't inserted it yet. , The iron door creaked, revealing a gap.
Xiao Muyan clenched the dagger in his hand, held his breath and leaned against the wall. Although the soldier's voice sounded quite thick, if you carefully discerned it, he lacked energy in his middle, his dantian was unstable, and his internal energy was shallow. Family, but there is nothing to be afraid of.
The head of the cell straightened up, raised his hand and pushed the door, the iron door was pushed open, and the light of the torch shone into the dark room.
