Chapter 27: The Prison City (2)
"Who? Who? Shen Jin's shouts reverberated like thunder rolling through the clouds. Everyone waited with bated breath, but the somewhat horrible laughter disappeared, and there was no sound in the gloomy prison except for the slight breathing of the crowd.
Shen Jin looked at Zhu Sheng. Since the first to hear the sound of Qiao Xi's army in Qi County during the Jinyang War, everyone knows that Zhu Sheng has a special talent, extremely strong ear power, and a keen sense of hearing, which few people can match, in this dim environment, no one will be more reliable than him. Zhu Sheng pointed to the other direction outside the iron fence, opposite to where they came from, and the passage continued to extend into the depths, and he couldn't see his five fingers.
"Is there anyone there?" Several people gathered under the iron fence and tried to look there, but all they saw was darkness.
Zhu Sheng nodded: "Where did the laughter come from." ”
Shen Jinren is as his name suggests, and he has always been very energetic. He stretched out his forearm and threw a piece of gravel out. The stone rolled a few feet as if it had hit a stone wall or something, and stopped. It didn't seem to be very deep, but there was no light at all, so everyone didn't notice it at all.
"The one who just haha, don't hide your head and tail. If there is anything happy about, say it and have fun together! Ding Miao snorted.
"That's it, say it, let's have fun together!" It was the little doll Ran Zhan who responded to Ding Miao. The little doll is only nine years old, and her voice is still a little crisp, so she roars, and the rest is really happy.
Although they were imprisoned for committing a major crime, these people are well-informed and have experienced too many dangers and dangers, and after temporary suppression, they quickly adjusted. Now that I found out that there were still cellmates in this prison, I was obviously a little excited when I looked at them. It is necessary to know that sympathy for the same disease is normal for human beings.
But no matter how Ran Zhan screamed, there was no sound in the darkness.
"Something is wrong." Lu Yao, who was silent, said suddenly.
He stood up, walked to a corner of the prison in a few steps and squatted down, and looked at it carefully: "Come and see!" ”
Xue Tong and others gathered around: "What's wrong?" ”
Lu Yao said a little impatiently: "Get out of the way, don't block the light!" ”
Everyone hurriedly separated a few more steps, letting the faint light of the oil lamp shine in.
What Lu Yao was staring at was a pool of stagnant water in the corner of the prison. This is a prison deep underground, and the water level in the west of Yecheng is very high, so there is a lot of water in the prison. Everyone was a little baffled, but seeing Lu Yao's serious expression, they had to follow to look at the stagnant water. The water was so filthy and mixed with a thick and suspicious liquid that everyone stared at it for a moment, feeling a little disgusting.
Suddenly, there was a ripple on the water. Then another lap, and another lap. Apparently, the ground is shaking imperceptibly!
"Earthquake?" Shen Jin exclaimed. In this era, there are no overloaded heavy trucks, and what can cause ground vibration must be a disaster like an earthquake! At that time, an earthquake was not only a natural disaster, but also a bad omen. After the earthquake, a variety of bad events will inevitably occur as a punishment and warning from heaven to mortals. Jingfang in "Yi Chuan": Yin and Yang are split, father and son are separated, and Yiqiang rebels. That's it.
"It's not like an earthquake...... The ground has been shaking for at least two moments, how can the earthquake not stop for so long? Lu Yao shook his head slowly.
"I'll hear it!" Zhu Sheng came out of the crowd, and he chose a slightly flat ground to lie down and cover his ears on the ground. Everyone waited with bated breath.
After a while, Zhu Sheng got up and scratched his scalp: "It's not an earthquake, right?" I think...... It's like there's a lot of people running back and forth. ”
"A lot of people are running?" Ding Miao looked at everyone around him, Yecheng is a heavy place, and there are guards everywhere, and the curfew is strictly checked at night, so many people are allowed to run wildly? He asked with a bit of sneer, "How many?" Tens of thousands? ”
Zhu Sheng nodded solemnly: "Thousands!" ”
Everyone present looked at each other, and for some reason, they suddenly felt that there was a dangerous atmosphere in the air.
Everyone was silent, and I don't know how long it took, Chu Kun suddenly jumped up, rushed to the fence and slapped it hard, and said loudly: "Someone!" Come! We want to meet His Royal Highness King Xincai! We are the envoys of Liu Tingshi in Bingzhou, if you dare to imprison us, Liu Tingshi will not spare you! ”
His arm strength was very good, and the fence made of iron bars with the thickness of his fingers was beaten to the point of clamming, but he did not move, after all, this was the prison used to hold the felons of death row, and the iron fence was covered with a large brass lock, which itself was made of pure wrought iron, and the roots were as thick as the little finger of an ordinary person, and the upper and lower ends were embedded in the stone wall, which was extremely strong; His voice was notoriously loud, but the door at the end of the hallway was so tight that no one responded to his request.
Ding Miao's beating of His Royal Highness King Xincai is indeed not a light crime. But after all, they are not ordinary cloth clothes, but the envoys of the Marquis of Guangwu, the general of Pingbei, the assassin of Bingzhou, and Liu Kun, the general of the Huns! In any case, how dare Xin Cai Wang An be so rude? At this moment, everyone is locked in a prison, and there are signs of suspicion that it is a large army movement, is it ......
In this dark and isolated environment, people's panic is most easily amplified. Once you have doubts about the situation in the outside world, all kinds of negative emotions will be like turbulent waves, and it will be difficult to contain them. This emotion was instantly transmitted to others, and in the blink of an eye, a few more people couldn't hold it back, got up and kicked the fence, and shouted loudly.
"Stopped!" Xue Tong snapped off his drink, and the eardrums of the shocked people were buzzing. He stood up and said in a deep voice, "I'm coming!" ”
Xue Tong is known for his divine power in the army, and I saw him sitting on a horse with his waist down, holding the fence and pulling hard, and his muscles and muscles were raised, like a King Kong wrestler. When the force is at the extreme, the roar is like thunder, and the body sweat is like a white mist, which is even more imposing. However, after all, manpower is sometimes poor, and the black and heavy iron fence does not move at all.
Ding Miao straightened up and sneered: "This prison city was built in the former Wei Dynasty, and I don't know how many heinous prisoners have been imprisoned for decades, and I have never heard of any mistakes. Lao Xue, you better save it. ”
Ding Yu sat beside him and said in a deep voice: "General, we fell to this field because of you, you ...... Alas, you better say a few words and save it. Ding Yu is usually silent, but it is rare to speak once, and he is so sharp. Ding Miao was almost so angry that he glared at him fiercely, and he had no choice but to give up.
At this time, Ran Zhan relied on his thin body and tried to get out of the gap between the fences, but finally failed. The crowd sighed in unison.
"I'll do it anyway." Lu Yao said suddenly.
For a while, everyone was suspicious, Lu Yao was not known for his divine power, and even Xue Tong couldn't help the iron fence, what could he do?
saw Lu Yao take off his robe, soak it in the sewage flowing on the ground, and then take it out. He was supposed to meet King Xincai today, so he wore a full set of large-sleeved wide-sleeved robe and dress of the Pingbei general Sima, which became very heavy once it was wet. Lu Yao twisted it in one direction again and again, until finally the entire robe was stretched into a cloth rope that was the thickness of a calf and nearly a foot long.
He threaded the rope through the iron fence, went around the two fences, and then retracted it, and then tied the ends of the rope tightly. He turned back and took the wooden table where he was sitting, split it with a wave of his palm, picked up one of the more regular long planks and twisted it into the cloth rope, and twisted it vigorously.
Under the incredulous gaze of everyone, the cloth rope continued to tighten, causing the iron fence to make a tooth-itching tearing sound, and the seemingly indestructible iron fence gradually bent. There is a row of slots in the stone wall at the top of the iron grating, and the iron grating is probed into the inch to fix it. At this point, the grille is bent to a certain extent, and the top is detached from the groove. Xue Tong rushed forward, grabbed the curved iron grate, and pulled it out.
How could such a miracle occur? Shen Jin took the iron fence and shook it hard, but where could he do it? Shen Jin looked at the iron grating, then at the cloth rope, and then at Lu Yao, his mouth was so open that he could almost stuff the entire steamed cake. The expressions of the rest of the others were probably the same.
What people didn't expect was the sudden outburst of strong reactions from the people in the depths of the prison who repeatedly asked for and received no response. I only heard him hiss and yelled: "How so? How so? Ha ha! Ha ha! The voice was like weeping, like madness, accompanied by the loud thud of the body slamming against the iron grate. For some reason, it makes people feel particularly uncomfortable.
Who cares about that weird guy right now? Lu Yao walked sideways through the fence and beckoned, "What are you waiting for?" ”
Everyone hurriedly went out one by one.

This part of the plot is really not saved, and it is written and sent every day. The crab is really not the kind of talent who is strong and long-winded, and I feel very stressed......
