Chapter 23 Entering the Heavenly Prison at Night
"You do think about them."
Ding Xiu smiled strangely when he heard this, and suddenly changed the topic: "But I remember that Shen Lian seems to know Brother Zhao too, right?"
Jin Yichuan said quickly: "Second brother has escaped from this vortex. Senior brother, you can't pull him back again."
Ding Xiu chuckled: "Look, I scared you so much, I just asked you a question!"
Jin Yichuan's expression softened slightly, and he was about to continue saying something when his expression suddenly changed. He turned around suddenly, pulled out the short knife from his waist, and threw it toward the alley diagonally behind him.
"call out--"
The blade pierced the air and pinned a black shadow to the corner of the alley in the blink of an eye.
The two brothers quickly stepped forward to check and saw a gray mouse nailed to the wall with a short knife. Its limbs were still twitching and its mouth kept screaming "squeaking".
"It turned out to be a mouse."
Jin Yichuan breathed a sigh of relief, pulled out the short knife, took out a piece of silk, and wiped it with a frown.
Ding Xiu on the side was holding a knife in both hands and glanced at the dead mouse. Suddenly he remembered something and turned around and asked, "Oh, by the way, there's that Fu Qingyun, what do you know?"
Jin Yichuan wiped the blood from the knife and replied casually: "I don't know much actually. I just heard from people that the real culprit in Liu's murder case may not be Fu Qingyun."
Ding Xiu raised his eyebrows: "Oh? If it's not him, who is that?"
Jin Yichuan shook his head: "I don't know, but -"
Jin Yichuan paused, then looked around cautiously, and whispered: "But there are experts in the Yamen who have guessed the existence of the organization from Li Jianlin, and suspect that we are responsible..."
Li Jianlin is a prominent figure promoted by the Alliance.
That was the target that the Liu family commissioned Lin Zhongtian to assassinate.
"We didn't do it."
Ding Xiu shook his head decisively.
Jin Yichuan was a little skeptical: "Are you sure?"
Ding Xiu nodded and said: "I'm sure. As far as I know, the organization had already taken the third son of the Liu family under its wing at that time, and was preparing to help him kill his brother and father, and take over all the power of the Liu family. To this end, the third son of the Liu family has quietly After poisoning his father for a month, how could he suddenly give up the entire plan and massacre the entire Liu family?"
Jin Yichuan nodded clearly: "That's right."
Ding Xiu suddenly smiled awkwardly: "However, although we were not responsible for Liu's murder, the news was indeed released by the organization."
"……ah?"
"To be honest, we can't be blamed for this. Among the martial arts masters who passed by the Liu family at that time, the only one who could do this was his White Bone Demon Hand Fu Qingyun."
Jin Yichuan's face straightened: "No matter what, Fu Qingyun cannot know about this matter."
Ding Xiu frowned and said thoughtfully, "You want to get him to join the gang?"
Jin Yichuan nodded: "Now time is tight and manpower is insufficient. There happens to be such a master in the capital. It is naturally the best to bring him to help you and me."
Ding Xiu chuckled: "Don't tell me, this is really possible! I think this person is both good and evil. He actually doesn't care about the name of the devil. He just thinks that the nickname of White Bone Demon Hand is a bit unpleasant. If he hears it, You and I are preparing to rob the Heavenly Prison, he might actually be interested, but we don’t know where he is staying in the capital, so I need you to pay more attention to this aspect."
"Senior brother, I saved it."
Jin Yichuan nodded, and the two senior brothers walked out of the alley while chatting.
When the two of them walked away, the rat corpse in the corner suddenly twitched, and a hazy gray mist appeared in a pair of blood-red eyes.
"Okay, my reputation has indeed been ruined by these people!"
In the inn two streets away, Lin Zhongtian was sitting on the bedside of the guest room with an angry look on his face.
But then, he looked strange and touched his chin thoughtfully.
No, the plot in his memory doesn’t seem to be like this!
If he remembered correctly, in the movie, Jin Yichuan killed the Jin Yiwei who was chasing him and assumed his identity, becoming the Jin Yiwei he is today.
After his senior brother Ding Xiu discovered this secret, he pestered him and extorted a lot of money.
The relationship between the two senior fellow apprentices is not to say that they help each other, but at least they are incompatible with each other.
Of course, based on the subsequent plot, many netizens speculated that the two brothers actually cared about each other very much.
It's just that this way of expressing care is a bit awkward.
Although Ding Xiu blackmailed Jin Yichuan and even jokingly asked him to find a big shot like Long Yang in the capital to sell his butt to make money, he actually wanted to tell him about the ugliness hidden under the prosperity of the capital and force him to get out of the quagmire of Jin Yiwei.
Although Jin Yichuan tried to kill Ding Xiu several times, he still pushed Ding Xiu away at the most critical moment and took countless shots from the roof for his senior brother.
All in all, the relationship between the two brothers in the original work is quite complicated.
Every time they met, they either exchanged words or drew swords at each other. How could there be such a scene of love for each other now?
And listening to their conversation, it turned out that these two brothers were also members of the alliance, and were the main force in Jie Tian Prison in the future.
According to this meaning, when Jin Yichuan pretended to be a member of the Jin Yiwei, he was not just tired of being a thief and wanted to go ashore, but he was ordered to go undercover as a member of the Jin Yiwei to work for the Alliance.
This is interesting...
A smile appeared on Lin Zhongtian's face, he stood up immediately and opened the window.
How could he sit still after learning such interesting things.
Anyway, this body strengthened by gray mist doesn't need much sleep, so he might as well continue his unfinished business at night.
After seeing and hearing so much news about the Tongmenghui, Lin Zhongtian became more and more interested in this so-called Brother Zhao.
…
…
There is no daylight in the Tianlao all year round, it is dark and gloomy, and it is difficult to distinguish between day and night.
There are very few windows in the prison that are higher than one meter, and most of them are low vents. The night wind and sewage and filth come in and out at the same time, making the air seem to become turbid and smelly.
After Chou hour, the two iron doors of the prison opened quietly.
A young man dressed as a jailor walked into the prison and walked slowly along the long corridor behind the iron gate.
Dim oil lamps were lit on both sides of the corridor. The bluestone pavement underfoot had been polished very smooth by countless pairs of feet. However, there was some moss growing in the gaps between the bluestones. Apparently no one had cleaned it for a long time.
The young man continued to walk forward, and with every step he took, a clear echo came from the corridor.
This design eliminated the possibility of Jin Yichuan and others secretly infiltrating the prison.
As long as they did not bribe all the jailers, the steps they took while crossing the corridor would be multiplied, alerting the guards at the end of the corridor and on both sides of the corridor.
In the middle of the corridor, there is a section without oil lamps. Instead, there are holes in the walls on both sides.
Obviously, this is the trap in the corridor and the hiding place for soldiers.
As the young man walked through this section of the road, there were a few pairs of eyes quietly observing in the hole.
They first took a look at the young man's attire, then looked at the young man's profile. When they found that it was a familiar face, they quietly disappeared behind the hole, allowing the young man to walk through the most dangerous section of the road. .
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the young man finally reached the end of the corridor.
A prison head with some cloudy eyes was guarding there.
Hearing the sound of footsteps coming from the corridor, the old man raised his eyes and looked at the young man, then waved his hand, lowered his head again, and ignored the young man in front of him.
Passing through the iron gate next to the old man is like entering another world.
Finally, there was a trace of human smoke in the dark and silent world.
That was the sound of the guards on duty tonight, shouting and drinking as they played for money.
