Chapter 97: Heavenly Prison (Part 1)

This place is not the most eerie and terrifying place in the world, but it is definitely the place where the world feels the biggest difference.
Everyone imprisoned by the Heavenly Prison, who was not gigantic and dignified before walking through the unpainted copper-wood gate, and for those who had just left the world of wealth, suddenly fell into the clouds and became prisoners In other words, it is obviously no cooler than other prisons, it is no different from the most terrible place in the world.
Lao Huangtou is the guard of Tianluo, and his son Xiaohuang is also the guard of Tianluo. The father and son alternate in shifts, guarding an independent area called Tianzi in Tianluo.
Although they have to visit each day as usual, and the two shifts can not leave people at night, but in fact their real job is just to sweep the courtyard.
Because there are no prisoners in the cold-shaped cell, there are none.
This is the most peculiar part of the prison, which has always held only the felony.
Although the prince committed the same crime as the common people, everyone actually knows how high the royal family is. Who dares to convict them at will? In Lao Huangtou's vague memory, I only remember that more than ten years ago, one of the world's most noble princes was held here.
After that, the size of the Han font has been so empty, and it is cleaned once a day, clean and deserted.
On the other side of the open space outside the Han-shaped courtyard, there is a promenade called the "Ghost Road". The other end of the promenade leads to a large block of rock and brick cells. All the officials involved in the crime are imprisoned there.
Compared with the indifference of the size of the cold font, the Nether Road can be regarded as lively. From time to time, there will be crying, dull, screaming, indifferent ... In short, all kinds of expressions are pulled over by the chain.
Lao Huangtou often stretched his neck and waited and watched. When his son came to take over, he sent a sigh of emotion: "It's all old lords ..." This sigh is for many years, and basically has not changed.
Of course, some people came out from the end of Nether Road.
If the person who walks out still wears a shackle and locks his face, the old yellow head will worship in his heart, and will say "Sin disappears and reincarnate as soon as possible." , Lao Huangtou would hit a bend, and said nothing.
In the boring and careless life of the guardian, taking a look at the cold and warm life scenes on the Nether Road is also a good way to pass the time.
On this day, the old yellow head swept the cold-shaped yard as usual, locked the door, stood on the open space outside, folded his arms and stared blankly in the direction of the Nether Road, and occasionally touched the oil bag in his sleeve Chew a peanut.
As soon as the fifth one was chewed, the gate on the outer side of the Nether Road whistled and it heard that someone was unlocking it.
Old Huang Tou knew that this meant that a new criminal had been mentioned here, and he stood at the shadow next to it.
The door opened, and two familiar faces came first, and Awei and Aniu were the first to stand. They stood thickly and stiffly on both sides and quickly bowed their waists.
The old Huangtou shuddered, and hurriedly posted a post to the wall because the person who came in later was really terrible. It was actually the No. 1 boss of the entire prison, Master An Rui'an, the torture officer.
The grandfather did not wear an official uniform today, wearing a navy blue robe, and raised his hand smilingly to make a leading gesture, saying: "Please, please, Mr. Su, please."
What Mr. An called Mr. Su is a young man in Confucianism. He looks pretty handsome, but he is thinner. It doesn't look like a big man.
But for the respectful courtesy of the punishment prince, the young man seemed to be safe, and only smiled lightly, and the pace was still not slow.
A group of people went along the Nether Road, apparently going into the cell to visit the prison.
Lao Huang's head was frowning with white eyebrows to guess the identity of the comer. The young man stopped suddenly, and his eyes swept suddenly, so that Lao Huang's head was staggering, thinking that the other party had found himself snooping here.
"Over there ... it doesn't seem to be the same ..." the young man asked in the direction of Lao Huangtou.
"That's the cold room," An Rui replied cautiously. "Mr. Su should know that this is where the royal family is held."
"Oh." The youth nodded blankly, and continued walking forward.
Behind them, a figure flew by suddenly, like ghosts. After a while, the young man shouted something, and the figure stopped obediently. After a closer look, it was a normal and handsome teenager. .
Uncle An and the two prisoners were curious and inconvenient to ask. The pedestrians walked across the promenade and disappeared into the gate at the other end.
Lao Huangtou quickly slipped back to the gate of his defense area, took a breath, sat down, and continued to frown, guessing who the person was.
This is his fun. He will never give up even if he is frightened, and he never cares about the result he guessed. There is no way to verify right or wrong.
This young man who made the old yellow head boring day has something to do, of course, Mei Changsu.
Because Yu Wang personally arranged to come forward, An Rui dare to neglect.
Although the other party was just a white scholar with no official positions, he still came out to accompany him carefully, and did not dare to belittle his identity.
The prison cells of the Tenno are all single rooms, grouted, and strong and abnormal.
Like all prisons, there are only small high windows, with poor air circulation and a cold, musty smell.
When Mei Changsu entered the inner prison corridor, he paused a little and raised his hand to support his forehead, as if he was not used to the dim light inside.
Feiliu came over and stood beside him, very obediently.
"Mr. Su, please be careful with your feet," An Rui reminded when walking to the corner, "Xie Yu's cell is still on the lower level."
Mei Changsu supported Fei Liu's arm and walked down a dozen steps of rough stone stairs to the ground floor. He walked through two or three rooms and came out of a relatively inward cell.
An Rui raised his hand and signaled his subordinate to open the prison door.
The entire cell is about six feet square, dark and dim.
Only a slanting small window penetrated the top of the slanting sunlight, and there were countless floating dust particles in the light, which made people feel more stuffy and dirty after watching it.
"Mr. Su please help yourself, I'll wait for you above." An Rui whispered, and withdrew two prisoners.
Mei Changsu stood for a moment outside the door and walked slowly into the prison door.
Probably already heard the conversation outside, Xie Yu stood up from the pile of straw piled in the corner of the wall, dragged his shackles, and squinted at the visitor.
"Sir Hou, don't come unharmed?" Mei Changsu said coldly.
Xie Yu looked at this idle young man, and his heart was mixed.
In fact, since he knew that he was Jiang Zuomei Lang, who was known as a unicorn genius, he has been struggling to prevent him, tried all kinds of methods, and exercised every move.
But the final outcome was actually forced to a desperate situation, and fell into this cold and cold cell.
If all of this happened because of bad luck, then it happened that it was revealed. If it was actually made by Jiang Zuomei Lang, then thinking about it at night is a bit creepy and terrified. Can't figure out how he did it.
"Why? Just half a month ago, Xie Houye didn't recognize Su Mou?" Mei Changsu stabbed him again.
Xie Yu resisted the rage in his chest and grunted: "Of course I can.
When Mr. Su first arrived in Beijing, didn't he live in my house as a guest? "
"Yes," Mei Changsu said calmly. "I remember the first time I saw Lord Xie Hou.
"It turns out that Mr. Su came here today just to get down and step down and satire me a few words.
This style ... is not high enough. "Xie Yu looked at him dumbly," I've been mistreated this time, and my life is in despair. Isn't it a gentleman's face that my husband has chased so far? "
Mei Changsu sneered: "It turns out that Lord Xie Hou knew that there is a word" little person "in the world.
You're in trouble, why have you been wronged? You and I understand in my heart that the piles and pieces controlled by Zhuo Dingfeng are all true, and your rudeness denies, but it is just to save your life.
It is a pity that the evidence is so mountainous and Huangquan Road is near. You are struggling in vain. How can you save your own life, at most it only saves Xia Jiang. "
Xie Yu's eyes moved slightly, and there was a sneer on his lips.
As expected, Xia Jiang was mentioned so quickly.
If it were not for Xia Jiang, this Jiang Zuomei Lang would probably not be condescending to this dirty place.
In such a clear case, Xie Yu knew that this was because Xia Jiang was indeed fulfilling his promise and trying to lobby him to save his life.
This kind of behavior will inevitably anger the king, and the prince will also respond accordingly.
Mei Changsu appeared in this cell. He wanted to find a breakthrough point against Xia Jiang from his own salary.
So Xie Yu made full preparations, shrunk herself into the iron shell, and insisted on clenching the roots of her teeth without any response.
"Master Xiehou," Mei Changsu took a step closer and leaned over slightly, "I know ... you can't help thinking when you see me, how did you lose to me, right? And you until Now, I ’m afraid I still have n’t been able to come up with a reasonable reason, right? You simply do n’t understand which step you did wrong, which step was neglected, and you do n’t know how things went on like this one by one, suddenly One day, you will be driven into the abyss, from the nobles to the prisoners, to the prison to die, right? "
Listening to these ruthless words, Xie Yu tightened his face, and his cheeks were sore and painful because the tooth root was too hard, but he still didn't say a word.
"Actually, you don't have to think so hard. I came here today to prepare to tell you clearly.
Thank you, Lord Hou, the reason why you lose ... "Mei Changsu's eyes were scraping on the prisoner's face like Bing Leng, and he slowly spit out a few words," Because you are stupid. "
Xie Yu's brow jumped sharply.
"I'm not saying that you are more stupid than the average person, you are just stupid than me." Mei Changsu smiled, "It's because I am smarter than you, so how will you react, how to move, what to plan, to plan I can't see anything.
And in turn, what I am thinking, what will I do, how do I plan, but you can't see through at all.
In this way, how can you not lose, how can you be undefeated? And even after losing, they can't figure out how they lost. This is not stupid ... what is it? "
Xie Yu's complexion turned white, restraining the ups and downs of his chest, and his nose became thicker.
Mei Changsu walked a few steps indoors, as if looking at this humble room, turned his head around, and finally stopped in front of Xie Yu, slowly squatted down, looked directly at him, and suddenly smiled: " Do you know who is smarter than you besides me? "
Xie Yu turned his head and insisted on ignoring it.
"Xia Jiang." Mei Changsu didn't care, and still spit out the name lightly, "Xia Jiang is much smarter than you, so you will still repeat the same mistakes that you lost to me and keep losing like this."
Mei Changsu paused deliberately, watching the blue muscles beating on Xie Yu's neck, and continued in a flat, but confusing tone: "I'll tell you how smart people will deal with you.
In fact, once you figure it out, it's really simple.
First of all, he came here to visit you, the embarrassed Hou Ye, and told you that he would not sit idly by and make a deal with you.
You don't confide his secret, he saves your life.
This transaction is certainly not fake.
He will work very hard to get you out of this prison.
When you are out of prison and you are not sentenced to death, his promise is completed.
He saved your life, and you will naturally not confess any of his crimes.
Then you will be sentenced to migration and exiled to the cold.
Maybe you feel that you have survived the bitterness, but in fact you have no chance to suffer from it.
Because your case is closed at this time, no one will come to interrogate you, no one will listen to you seriously, and there will be no chance for you to bite Xia Jiang's secrets in your mouth.
From the capital to the exile, there is a long way to go, any place may be your ghost gate.
By that time, your death was just the death of an exile. No one cared or cared. Even if someone cares about what someone cares about afterwards, you are already dead. It ’s too late to threaten any secrets you keep. In the case of human beings, it is easy to die and bring everything to another world cleanly.
And Xia Jiang ... he is a smart man who will live well, and he will never have to worry about anything since then, how good is that, isn't it? "
Soybean-sized sweat beads rolled down from Xie Yu's forehead, dripping onto his dirty prison clothing that could not be seen in color, and fainted into a black ball.
"Master Xie Hou," Mei Changsu's pressing voice was as cold and cruel as he heard from hell. Every word was stuck in Xie Yu's heart. "You better look up now and look at me , Let's have a good talk, how?
