Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan was unjustly imprisoned in the sky prison by Lu Zhan, the Minister of Punishment, and was poked with round sticks by the guards arranged by Lu Zhan... However, Ma Xiaoquan met in the sky prison.
A strange man......
The guards left, leaving only the gasping prisoners in the sky prison.
Ma Xiaoquan vomited out a mouthful of blood and got up from the ground with a cold groan.
"Lu Zhan, you are cruel enough, very good. I, Ma Xiaoquan, will remember today's humiliation."
"Lu Zhan?" The man opposite spoke again, "You were actually captured by Lu Zhan?"
Ma Xiaoquan hummed: "What can a little minister of punishment do to me?"
"Young little Minister of Justice? Ma Xiaoquan, I think you were beaten stupid with a stick. The Minister of Justice is a high-ranking official. How can you, a little commoner, control him?"
Ma Xiaoquan laughed: "That's not certain. If I want him to die, he will never survive tonight."
Ma Xiaoquan's confidence comes entirely from the flame girl Xiaoshuang in his body.
Although he was locked in a cage, if Ma Xiaoquan wanted to get out, he could release Xiaoshuang and melt the cage.
It's just that... the past and present are different. We are now in the Ming Dynasty, which is a relatively legal dynasty. Compared with the late Han Dynasty, it is much more formal.
If Ma Xiaoquan was just one person, he could completely ignore the laws of the Ming Dynasty, but... because of Ma Xiaoquan's love and responsibility, he took on the responsibility of the Ma family and Li Qinghan's safety, so...
.Ma Xiaoquan can’t do this anymore.
"Hmph," the man sneered, "Ma Xiaoquan, listen to the tone of those guards, are you a playboy? Even if a person like you is beaten to death in this prison, I'm afraid no one will come to collect your body."
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "I won't die. By the way, don't talk about me. Let's talk about you. Who are you?"
The man pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "I have stayed here for too long, and I have forgotten who I am."
Ma Xiaoquan was speechless for a while: "Okay, then I just said Zhao Yuntai, why are you so excited and manic?"
"Zhao Yuntai? Haha..." The man smiled bitterly and shook his head, "He is my master, but we haven't seen each other for decades."
"Master?" Ma Xiaoquan looked at the man in surprise, "Your master? How could he be your master?"
The man smiled and said: "What's impossible? The master adopted me since I was a child and brought me up. It can be said that the master is also my father and my mentor..." After the man said this, his eyes
Revealing a strong admiration.
The light in the Sky Prison is not as dim as described in TV series and movies. On the contrary, the light in the Sky Prison is still very bright during the day.
Seeing the man's look, Ma Xiaoquan shook his head helplessly and asked, "Then why are you locked up here?"
"Locked here?" The man looked at Ma Xiaoquan with wide eyes, and then he gently pushed the door of his cage with his hand.
With a "squeak" sound, he pushed the cage door open just like that.
"This... how is this possible?" Ma Xiaoquan looked at the man in surprise and exclaimed, "How did you open your cage door?"
The man replied calmly: "The door is unlocked to begin with, why do I need to open it?"
"What? No lock? How is this possible? This is the prison of the Ming Dynasty?"
The man didn't seem to care about whether it was a prison in heaven or not. He glared at Ma Xiaoquan and then closed the prison door.
Ma Xiaoquan: "...Do you want to live here on your own?"
The man nodded: "Yes, there is food and accommodation here, and I will occasionally go out to take a shower..."
"Nah!" Ma Xiaoquan cursed softly, thinking that no wonder the inside of your cage looks so clean. You guy can still go out to take a shower after being in trouble for a long time...
"Ma Xiaoquan, I heard you scolding me."
Ma Xiaoquan: "..."
The man sighed: "Since you know my master's name, you must know a lot about my master, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes."
"Then I can think that you are actually the same as my master, the... entity time traveler he said."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and lied: "I have seen such a name in my Ma family's genealogy and some classics. Unfortunately, I am not, but I know a little bit about it."
The man groaned and said: "I remember the master once said that there is a Ma family in the capital, and the first head of the family is the same as him."
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned for a moment and thought that Zhao Yuntai had indeed been to Ma's house.
"Oh, that's it. What happens next?" Ma Xiaoquan asked patiently.
"Then...then the master has something in his hand"
"Something?" Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaoquan's heart trembled violently.
"Yes, a thing. The master calls that thing...an underground detector."
Hearing the words "underground detector", Ma Xiaoquan almost screamed. Fortunately, the pain in his chest hit him at this moment, otherwise Ma Xiaoquan would really be so excited that he couldn't help it.
After coughing for a while, Ma Xiaoquan calmed down.
"It doesn't look like your injury is serious?" the man said.
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand and raised his head: "It doesn't matter, you can continue talking, I am very interested in listening."
The man chuckled: "Don't you think I'm lying or making up a story?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled, pointed at the window of the prison and said, "Do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"
The man shook his head: "I haven't seen it, and I can't tell you anything about it, but I believe that if a person has concerns in his heart, his soul will reincarnate from life to life..."
"Does the soul travel through time?" Ma Xiaoquan asked.
"Haha, it's rare that you know about soul time travel. It seems that your Ma family's classics are really good."
Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly, thinking that there was no such introduction in the Ma family's classics.
"Maybe I will believe it, but the master said a poem when he left."
"A poem? What is it?"
The man thought for a while and said slowly: "If I remember correctly, it should be... four lives of reincarnation, four lives of enlightenment, four lives of cause and effect, four lives of love, four lives of destiny, four lives of tribulations, four lives of ultimate success.
Thousands of years of love."
With a "pop" sound, Ma Xiaoquan collapsed on the ground and said in surprise: "Is this... a book of filial piety?"
