Yin Liuling was taken to the prison by the guards. In fact, with his ability, he could run away if he wanted to, but I don't know if it was due to plot restrictions or something. He tried to resist several times but was controlled by a mysterious force.
From this point of view, Professor Dou's inability to control himself during the emperor plot may not be because he is an ordinary person and cannot resist the influence of the Soul Leaving Realm, but simply because he has more scenes.
However, the environment of the Tianlao in the South Country is not bad. It is a two-person room just like Suojia High School, but it is relatively simple. There is only straw on the ground, no bed or toilet, and the rooms are separated by iron railings.
However, even in such an environment, Yin Liuling did not smell any peculiar smell after entering. She had to wonder how the people locked up here went to the toilet and solved personal hygiene problems.
In the room with Yin Liuling was an unkempt one-armed old man. He seemed to be familiar with the two brothers in the next cell. When Yin Liuling was escorted in, they were playing leaf cards across the railing. This is a leaf card in the literal sense.
Each card is made of a green and dry leaf, but there are no green plants in the prison. Where did they get the leaves?
"Okay, okay," the jailer came over and flicked the whip on his hand, "It's almost done."
Yin Liuling originally thought that the three prisoners were going to be beaten for playing cards, but she heard the jailer say again: "A, two, three, two, if you give me a thousand dollars, don't you want the other hand?"
"What? Are you asking for money?" Jia 241 next door was also shocked, "What's wrong with you, Du Laojiu? Do you also play this trick in our entertainment bureau?"
"Why should I play cards if I don't have a fortune?" Du Laojiu didn't feel ashamed at all because he was exposed. He said confidently, "Besides, I don't win all the time. I just make the game more interesting."
"Let me tell you, no wonder I touched the word 'Win Ma' three times today. I thought my life was over and I would be killed next month." A242 suddenly realized, "It turns out you are scaring me."
Yin Liuling felt that it was really a waste for Du Laojiu not to play the cheating moth.
After the short-lived farce passed, Yin Liuling officially moved into Room A231 and became Room A231.
"Hey, brother, what are you being imprisoned for?" Du Laojiu was kicked out of the card game because he was caught cheating, and he got close to Yin Liuling when he was bored.
"He had an affair with the palace concubine." The jailer who joined the card game in place of Du Laojiu sat on the futon and glanced here, "It's still the princess from abroad."
"Wow, then you are really awesome." After hearing this, Du Laojiu gave a thumbs up with his only hand and looked Yin Liuling up and down, "Then how come you are still intact? I just touched Dingnan.
Princess Wang's hand was chopped off and her arm was imprisoned."
Yin Liuling used to wonder why Du Laojiu, a con man, was in the prison of the palace, but now he understands, but what is his identity? How can he get close to the queen?
"What are you, Princess Dingnan," Jia 242 curled his lips, "You don't want your tongue? You want to call her the Queen Mother."
What the fuck? Yin Liuling looked at Du Laojiu in shock, and then suddenly remembered something: it was said before that Princess Mingzhu was kidnapped by the rebels, and was later rescued by the late emperor, which led to a great purge of the southern country's military forces. After that,
Then the first Wu champion who came from a poor family was born. It seems that his surname was Du?
The number one scholar that year was Lan Jie. The two of them must have known each other. Could it be that they both had thoughts about the Queen Mother?
"But to be honest, I was opposed to the Queen's entry into the palace at the beginning." Jia Er Si Yi felt that Du Lao Jiu was right. "Look at the princesses from Dingnan Palace who have entered the palace from generation to generation. Which one has children? Which one has children?
A good death? But the ones outside can have a son and a half, otherwise they would have died long ago. You can't abuse people like this just because they are from the national protector clan!"
Although Yin Liuling thought it was amazing since the jailer even joined in the card game, she was still surprised by how freely these prisoners spoke.
"What are you talking nonsense about?" Jia 242 asked to stop him. Yin Liuling thought that he finally had some sense of crisis, but she didn't expect that this guy was even more serious when he spoke, "Our Southern Emperor still had some wise men when he was young.
Yes, but as soon as they get older, they all become stupid kings. If the people of King Dingnan are not watching, they may not know what to do. As a protector of the country, this is also a protector of the country."
"You don't need to pay attention to them," the jailer noticed Yin Liuling's doubts and explained, "It is almost impossible for the prisoners here to get out after they come in. They are waiting to die. Even if they say something, the nobles outside will not care."
"What about you?" Yin Liuling could understand that these death row inmates had nothing to fear, but the jailers were not prisoners, so if they just let them say some treasonous things, wouldn't they be afraid of being targeted?
"Ha, I've been working here for thirty years, and I've only been out twice in total." The jailer laughed, "I have no family, and if my friends are just these bastards, they won't be able to move. What am I afraid of?
Well. In such a sensitive place as Tianlao, no one dares to win over me, and no one dares to offend me. Who can guarantee that I will not come in? "
"So, it's better to play cards." A242 concluded.
Yin Liuling looked around thoughtfully. There were also people in other cells around him. Without exception, they were all playing cards in twos and threes, using this kind of strange leaves. He carefully observed the cards in the hands of A, 2, and 41.
He was surprised to find that these were not the leaves of trees or shrubs as he had thought before, but apparently a medium-sized seaweed, but it lacked the smell of the ocean.
"Where did you get the leaves?" Yin Liuling finally couldn't help but ask, but when she saw the expressions of the people in front of her changed.
"This is not nonsense," Du Laojiu reacted the fastest and gave Yin Liuling a hand. "This is the holy leaf. It is the last mercy God bestows on us people."
Are you not afraid of the royal family, but respect ghosts and gods? Yin Liuling was thoughtful, so he asked around about the sacred leaves and the temple. Although Gu Ren had given him some information before, they were a small place in the countryside after all, and naturally there were no such people from the capital.
Well informed.
Du Laojiu, however, had no cards to play and was bored, so he introduced Yin Liuling enthusiastically.
Similar to what Yin Liuling learned before, the temple should be a cover for letting people obtain the human souls of this underwater continent, but in an important place like the capital, the temple's methods will be more complicated. After all, although the humans here are superstitious, they still want those nobles.
When people from aristocratic families give up their enjoyment and go to the temple to become waiters, they are more or less upset in their hearts. Because there have been cases where some dudes did not want to leave home and decided to find someone to replace them, so the temple prepared a new plan.
"Becoming an Immortal in One Step"
This is a triennial event that can only be held in the capital of every country, the Day of Divine Grace.
