Chapter 187
The two of them were in a state of panic, and the two were in a state of panic.
In the prison of the Demon Suppression Division.
Zhang Lanyue occupied a cell alone, which was small, dark and damp, with only one ventilation hole that could let in some warmth from the sun.
Her limbs were bound by heavy iron chains, and every move took a lot of effort.
At this moment, she sat against the wall, staring blankly at the hole leading to the outside world.
The sun gradually disappeared, which also meant that her second night in this prison was about to come.
Zhang Lanyue retracted her gaze, picked up a piece of hay on the ground, and put it into her mouth to chew it boredly.
In fact, life in the prison was better than she thought.
She was not tortured, nor did she live in the same room with those dirty and smelly prisoners.
However, every minute and every second here was extremely painful, and she deeply experienced what it meant to live a year.
What was even more terrifying was that she had no idea how long such days would last, or... endless?
"I don't know if the mark I left behind was discovered by the secret agents of Muyang Sect..."
This was her only hope of escaping from the predicament.
Zhang Lanyue kept comforting herself in her heart, and she was patient, and Muyang Sect would definitely send someone to rescue her.
She even imagined that Li Yan would wear a bright red wedding gown and come to pick her up in person to get married.
Thinking of such a beautiful and intoxicating picture, Zhang Lanyue unconsciously raised a happy smile.
"Tick-tick~tick-tick~"
Raindrops kept dripping from the cracks on the roof.
The water drops became more and more dense, almost forming a line, and the landing point was exactly Zhang Lanyue's forehead.
The sudden cold rain woke Zhang Lanyue from her unrealistic fantasy and brought her back to the cold reality.
At this time, she heard footsteps outside the cell.
Are you here to save me?
Zhang Lanyue sat up straight and hurriedly tidied her appearance.
However, what appeared in front of her was just a yamen runner with a sullen face.
"It's time to eat."
The young yamen runner grabbed two big white steamed buns and threw them in. His movements were perfunctory and sloppy, as if he didn't treat Zhang Lanyue as a person.
The steamed buns fell right into the small puddle formed by the raindrops.
Zhang Lanyue looked at the yamen runner fiercely: "I am the disciple of the elder of Muyang Sect. Is this how you treat me?"
With Lu Ren here, she didn't expect any special treatment. At least she should give him the respect he deserves, right?
After coming in for a day or two, Zhang Lanyue gradually figured out one thing.
She didn't do anything against the laws of this dynasty.
The group of disciples who went with her to Baoguang Mountain were killed by Qin Zhen.
And Qin Zhen died at the hands of Lu Ren.
She did nothing from beginning to end, except to escape and threaten Lu Ren with Zhao Mingjie's life.
But she finally stopped. Zhao Mingjie only suffered some skin injuries. At most, she could go to his house and apologize in person. This matter could be easily resolved.
Zhang Lanyue couldn't figure out why Lu Ren locked her up in the prison of the Demon Suppression Division for a trivial crime?
And it would be unreasonable and unreasonable if it lasted for a long time.
After she was released from prison, the first thing she planned to do was to ask the sect to put pressure on the Huashui County Government Office and let the county governor come forward to negotiate with the Demon Suppression Division.
If Lu Ren couldn't give a reasonable reason to detain her, he would have to kowtow to her and apologize!
Only in this way can she wash away the humiliation she suffered in prison today.
The yamen runner outside the door saw that the steamed buns were wet by the rain, and perhaps because of his guilty conscience, he opened the door, went in, picked up the two dirty steamed buns, and replaced them with two clean ones and handed them to Zhang Lanyue.
Zhang Lanyue was dismissive of this.
As a martial artist in the Kaimai realm, she could go without food for ten days or half a month.
Besides, the food in the prison was so dirty, who knew what raw materials were used to make it, hard and unpalatable.
Just as she was about to throw away the steamed bun in her hand, she found a black thing on the haystack at her feet.
She looked closely and was overjoyed.
It was the key!
The iron chain on her body was made of special materials, and she could not break free by brute force alone, and could only be opened with a key.
So even if she had imagined countless possibilities of escaping from prison, as long as the chain was still there, she could not put it into action.
I didn't expect such a coincidence to happen!
It seems that the yamen runner accidentally dropped it when he bent down to pick up the steamed bun.
Because there was a pile of grass to catch it,
There was no sound, so the yamen runner naturally didn't notice anything.
Zhang Lanyue suppressed her excitement and pretended that nothing happened.
The yamen runner locked the door again, looked at Zhang Lanyue again, and asked, "Why don't you eat?"
Zhang Lanyue rarely smiled, nodded repeatedly, and took a small bite of the steamed bun.
Seeing this scene, the yamen runner walked towards the next cell with satisfaction.
After his figure disappeared, Zhang Lanyue's face changed instantly.
"Pah!"
She spit the steamed bun in her mouth to the ground, and said with dissatisfaction, "What the hell, it's so disgusting."
At the same time, she carefully hid the key.
She didn't sleep all night last night, and figured out the pattern of the shift change in this big prison. There will be a short window period around midnight.
At that time, the prison is unattended.
As long as she seizes the opportunity to escape, she can find the sect to support her.
Not only that, she also wanted to expose the fact that Lu Ren killed Qin Zhen.
Although Lu Ren had destroyed the evidence, and the Demon Suppression Division was protecting him, they might not be able to do anything to him.
However, Zhang Lanyue's real purpose was not this.
All she had to do was to clarify the facts. It didn't matter whether others believed it or not, as long as Qin Zhen's master believed it.
What's more, Lu Ren took the magic mirror away.
Even if he didn't avenge Qin Zhen, his master would definitely hate Lu Ren because his beloved magic weapon was taken away.
Being targeted by a Takumi Realm expert, Lu Ren's future life would not be better than hers now.
..........
It was late at night, and there was only half an hour left until midnight.
Zhang Lanyue was extremely excited and had no sleep.
Just as she was rehearsing the escape route in her mind, she suddenly felt something in her heart and looked at the door in surprise.
The scene in front of her made her feel physically uncomfortable instinctively, and she subconsciously shrank back into the corner.
Outside the iron door of the cell, pairs of greedy eyes were staring at her, like a group of hungry wolves discovering a fat sheep.
These people were dishevelled, and their prison uniforms were black and smelly because they had not been washed for years. They looked even shabbier than the beggars on the street.
An indescribable sour smell drifted into Zhang Lanyue's nose, making her frown and feel nauseous.
Something is wrong!!!
Aren't these people locked up in other cells?
Why did they all run out?
Zhang Lanyue smelled a conspiracy from it.
Was it arranged by Lu Ren?
There was a "clang".
The prisoners began to shake the cell door frantically, shouting wildly, as if they couldn't wait to enter the cell, press Zhang Lanyue to the ground, and vent their desires that had been accumulated for many years.
Zhang Lanyue was a woman after all. Seeing this scene in front of her, her heart was instinctively filled with fear.
For Li Yan, she could please or even seduce any man.
In order to survive, she could also commit herself to someone she hated or hated, such as Lu Ren.
But she couldn't accept the group of beast-like men outside.
What's more, there were more than a dozen of them. Once they broke in, she couldn't imagine what kind of humiliation she would suffer.
"Damn Lu Ren, he only uses such despicable means!"
Zhang Lanyue gritted her teeth and stared at the direction of the cell door.
Those outside were all extremely vicious people, and they were basically martial artists. Under their combined efforts, the cell door had already shown signs of crumbling.
Zhang Lanyue swallowed nervously.
She realized that these people would break in soon and rush forward.........
"I can't just sit there and wait for death."
At this moment, she remembered the key.
Although the group of people outside were thugs, their strength was basically only at the initial sense level.
If they really fought, she would not be afraid of them.
Zhang Lanyue knew that the situation was urgent, so she quickly found the key and opened the chains that bound her hands and feet.
At the same time, as the iron gate collapsed, the thugs were no longer blocked and rushed in with their teeth and claws bared.
"Woman, such a beautiful woman!"
"What a charming fragrance! I haven't touched a woman's body for more than three years, let me hug you."
"Beauty, your clothes are too much of a hindrance, brother will help you take them off."
.........
More than a dozen people swarmed in, all of them looked crazy, with greedy desires surging in their eyes.
Zhang Lanyue threw away the last chain, briefly moved her stiff limbs, and felt the endless spiritual energy of heaven and earth flowing into her body again.
At this point, a chilling murderous intent spread from her.
"You bunch of bastards
You dare to touch me? You really don't know how to live or die! "
Zhang Lanyue kicked the first person in the heart, and instantly kicked him out. His head hit the wall heavily and he fainted on the spot.
However, this action did not deter others.
They seemed to have only her in their eyes, the only woman in the prison.
No!
No matter how lustful these people are, they should at least be afraid of death.
But from their performance, they don't know what fear is at all.
Zhang Lanyue finally realized that the reason why these people were so lustful was that they were drugged, and the dosage was large enough to make people lose their minds.
No wonder... everything makes sense.
This is a conspiracy specifically targeting her!
However, what is Lu Ren's purpose?
Does he want to see her being defiled by these lowly and dirty prisoners to satisfy his evil taste?
While thinking, another person rushed to her and scratched her proud chest with his dirty nails.
This action completely angered Zhang Lanyue.
"Looking for death! "
In a rage, she slapped the man away with one palm.
She did not hold back at all in this palm, and the explosive power displayed by the mid-stage Kaimai cultivation was quite amazing.
The man closed his eyes, kicked his legs, and lay on the ground without breathing.
Having killed one person, Zhang Lanyue knew that there was no turning back, so she quickly dealt with the remaining people, and then swaggered out of the prison.
"Strange, why didn't I see a single yamen runner along the way? "
There is still a quarter of an hour before midnight. Isn't it time to change shifts?
Thinking back to everything that happened tonight, a terrible answer emerged in Zhang Lanyue's mind.
Not only those prisoners, but even the key that the yamen runner accidentally dropped, is also part of Lu Ren's careful planning?
Realizing that something was wrong, Zhang Lanyue hurriedly fled at full speed.
However, the next moment, torches were raised high on the high walls around her, and figures stood on the walls, surrounding her tightly.
"Bold lunatic, you don't repent in prison, you dare to kill people and escape from prison, it's simply a heinous crime!"
Captain Guo Qi raised his hand and waved, ordering: "Come on, take this evil woman down for me!"
Zhang Lanyue roared angrily: "You framed me!"
"You still dare to quibble now? Humph, if you have anything to say, go see our Lord of the Demon Suppression Envoy! "
Soon, several demon-suppressing lieutenants and a group of powerful demon-suppressing guards surrounded Zhang Lanyue.
At least three or four of the other side had a stronger aura than her. Zhang Lanyue knew that she could not escape no matter what.
She put down her weapon, looked desperate, and chose to surrender.
"Where is Lu Ren? I want to see him!"
This was her only request.
Guo Qi came over and said, "Lord Lu is out on a mission. What happened tonight has nothing to do with him."
"Didn't he plan it?" Zhang Lanyue was very surprised.
"Why? Why did you go to such great lengths to plot against me?"
Guo Qi whispered in her ear, "We can't do anything about it. Who made you a threat to Lord Lu?"
After that, Guo Qi laughed and signaled his men to take Zhang Lanyue away.
"Where are you taking me?"
A demon-suppressing guard covered her eyes with a black cloth.
"You don't need to know. ”
Zhang Lanyue asked again: "How are you going to deal with me?"
"Your life is entirely up to Lord Lu, these are Lord Wu Gang's original words."
Zhang Lanyue's heart fell to the bottom.
She knew that the Demon Suppression Division was going to move her to a place where no one knew and hide her.
Even if the people of Muyang Sect came to find her, they would never see her.
Despair drowned Zhang Lanyue deeply like a tide.
She might never see Li Yan again.
..........
The next day.
In Wu Gang's study room in the Demon Suppression Division.
Lin Jinyan said calmly: "He hasn't been heard from for a day."
Wu Gang took a sip of tea and smiled faintly: "It's just a mission, are you so worried?"
"I'm not worried about him. "
"Say one thing and mean another is a common trick used by women. I thought you would be an exception, but I didn't expect..."
Wu Gang shook his head and laughed.
Lin Jinyan's expression became serious, and she said with some dissatisfaction: "You know that the mission is very risky. Shi Jinxiong, the leader of Juyan Sect, is a master of the Condensation Realm. He had no power to fight back when he was killed. What do you think is the chance of Lu Ren's victory when he meets the real murderer behind the scenes?"
Wu Gang thought about it seriously, and then said: "Not even one percent."
"Then why do you let him go? !"
"Young people, you have to experience some experience."
Seeing that Lin Jinyan did not
After calming down, Wu Gang added: "That kid is only one step away from breaking through to the Qi Condensation stage. Maybe this trip can help him seize that opportunity. As long as he breaks through, the burden on me can be handed over to him."
Lin Jinyan frowned slightly: "Are you leaving?"
"I have been in Huashui County for many years. I originally planned to give you this position, but you are going to get married soon... So I can only look for other candidates. Yuan Shi is actually not bad, but his temperament is not stable enough. It is most suitable to hand it over to Lu Ren."
Lin Jinyan's expression was complicated, and she looked like she wanted to say something but stopped.
Seeing this, Wu Gang shook his head and laughed: "This is the first time I see you care so much about someone."
As he said, he took out a note and handed it to Lin Jinyan.
"This is the letter Lu Ren sent back early in the morning."
