Hearing that his father might still be alive, Situ Qing ran forward like crazy. Behind him, his wife Yang Hong and Baldhead also followed closely. Jun Xiaojun and Lao Jia relied on their higher cultivation than these people.
The last one arrived first and finally caught up.
The group of people followed Situ Qing and ran towards the dungeon of the Situ family. As the former heir of the family, of course he knew where the dungeon was. Now that he heard that his father might be there, how could he hold back.
The mansion of the Situ family was indeed very large. The group of people ran for a while before arriving in front of a stone building. This was the entrance to the dungeon. The masters guarding the dungeon were all stationed in this stone building, and underneath the stone building
It's the dungeon. This design allows those experts to complete the guarding tasks in a comfortable environment without having to stay in the dark and humid place.
Once there is any disturbance, a group of masters will come down from the stone building to block the entrance and exit of the dungeon, leaving the criminals with no way to escape.
Quickly arriving at the door of the stone building, Situ Qing stopped and looked back. His wife Yang Hong, Baldhead, Young Master Jun, and the old man who seemed to be from the Dragon Group were all following him.
.
He wanted them not to follow him, but it was not safe outside after he went down, and at this moment he was eager to know if his father was really still alive. In such an eager mood, he couldn't care about it.
After looking gratefully at the people behind him, Situ Qing rushed towards the stone building resolutely.
When the two guards at the door saw several people approaching, they hurriedly stepped forward to stop them. But at this moment, Situ Qing was impatient. He raised his hands to deal with the two of them, and then rushed into the stone building without hesitation.
The people behind Jun Xiaojun also followed him into the stone building. Although the best solution is to secretly inquire about it and then find a way to save the person if he is sure that he is inside, Situ Qing must not care about this at this time.
Well, Jun Xiaojun had no intention of being sneaky when he came to the Situ Family this time.
The group of people entered the first floor of the stone building. There were two staircase passages going up and down. Next to the passage there were some tables, chairs, sofas and other simple rest furniture. Some of the guards at the lowest level were sitting here drinking tea and chatting.
Seeing someone knocking over the guards and breaking in, all the guards on the first floor stood up. They picked up weapons and gathered in front of the underground passage leading to the dungeon, trying to prevent these people from entering.
However, these guards on the first floor are all people of low strength. They only serve as a guard and early warning. They are completely vulnerable to masters such as Jun Xiaojun.
Knowing Situ Qing's eagerness, the group quickly took action to deal with the people blocking the passage, and then followed Situ Qing down the stairs and entered the underground cell area.
Setting up a private cell and illegally imprisoning someone would be enough to arrest someone in an ordinary family. But for a family like the Situ Family, this kind of sturdy and well-defended cell is a must-have facility.
Used to imprison those who have made mistakes and those who have harmed the interests of the family or been captured from the enemy camp, this family prison is indeed indispensable.
The Situ Family's dungeon is indeed worthy of its name. The large underground area is actually paved with huge bluestones, and the surrounding walls are also extremely solid boulder structures.
The stone rooms are the cells of this dungeon, and many of the cells actually contain people. This shows that the dungeon of the Situ family is indeed not a decoration, and that people really dare to do this kind of thing of imprisoning people.
After coming down from above, Situ Qing walked straight along the passage. People in the cells on both sides made various noises from time to time. Some people guessed that they were intruders and began to call for help. However, Situ Qing, who was anxious to see his father, had no time at all.
Never mind this.
If his father is really alive, he must be imprisoned in the deepest part of the dungeon, where he is least likely to be discovered. Situ Qing understands this very well. Moreover, he also knows the layout of the dungeon very well, which saves him the trouble of searching here and there.
.
He led everyone to walk inside, and finally came to the end of the passage, but he still didn't see his father. The innermost cells were all empty, and he didn't find his father who he imagined was locked up here.
, which made Situ Qing extremely depressed.
Could it be that Situ Lei actually lied to him? The hope that had been raised suddenly turned into disappointment, and his face was full of misery.
At this time, Jun Xiaojun, who was standing next to him, frowned. In his previous life experience, Situ Tian did not seem to be dead. He remembered that in the end, it was the head of the Situ family who publicly executed Situ Tian.
It was through this execution that his son and daughter-in-law were lured out and eliminated together. Since Situ Tian was indeed not dead and was indeed imprisoned in the Situ family, it was impossible not to have him.
Thinking of this, Jun Xiaojun said to Situ Qing:
"Uncle, don't worry, I think the head of the Situ family should still be alive. If it's not here, it may not be anywhere else. Doesn't the Situ family have a more secret place to hide people?"
Huh? Why is Mr. Jun so sure that his father is still alive? Situ Qing felt confused in his heart. But at this moment, he could not think more about the mystery of Mr. Jun, and thought of the more secret place he said? His eyes flickered again, and he
He hurriedly stepped forward and entered the innermost cell.
Seeing this, everyone else followed and walked in. The cell, which was more than ten square meters, was clearly visible. Just like what they saw outside, there was no one inside at all. What did Situ Qing want to do when he came in?
Ignoring everyone's doubts, Situ Qing came to the lampstand in the corner of the cell alone, reached out and grasped the bracket supporting the lampstand, and then pulled it to the side.
Hearing a loud noise, everyone suddenly saw that the innermost wall of the cell was split in the middle, and then a scalp-numbing scene appeared in front of everyone.
They saw that there was actually a water prison inside the separate wall, and in the innermost part of the water prison, an old man with unkempt hair and bruises all over his body was chained to a stone pillar.
The clothes on the old man's body are all grown together with his flesh and blood. It seems that he has been tortured for a long time, and his whole body has become emaciated.
Looking at his face, his eyes were closed and his head was hanging downward. If he hadn't seen the faint rise and fall of his chest, he would have been mistaken for a dead person.
I didn't expect that there was such a mechanism in the last cell. This person was locked up in such a secret place. It seemed that he must be an extremely important prisoner. I just didn't know if he was Situ Qing's father, Situ Tian.
With this thought, everyone hurriedly looked at Situ Qing, and saw that he was standing there with red eyes, breathing rapidly and with anger on his face. It seemed that Situ Qing was on the verge of rage.
There was a huge gap between the man in front of him and his majestic and heroic father, but Situ Qing still recognized him at a glance. This was clearly his father, Situ Tian, the previous head of the Situ family.
Is he really still alive? Thinking of what Jun Xiaojun just said, everyone understood the mystery of this young man.
