In the dark and damp dungeon, the harsh metal sound of "clang" echoed.
"Is there anyone! I want to see Song Zhi! Did you hear me! I want to see Song Zhi!!"
The man guarding the dungeon was so annoyed that he opened the dungeon door and walked down from the upper entrance.
Just halfway through, I saw the woman who was locked up in the first room and was throwing herself against the iron bars.
The guard shook his head helplessly.
"I said, let's not waste our efforts, Miss Ji. You know, few people can get into this dungeon, but few can get out. It's useless for you to make things difficult for me. With so many people locked up, how can you let people rest?" ah?"
rest?
Most of the people imprisoned here are almost dead. If they really want to rest, they can just go on a hunger strike and seek death.
Ji Yuqing clutched the railing tightly and looked at the person in front of her.
"Don't say it's useless, just tell Song Zhi that I can agree to all his conditions and let him come to see me quickly. Doesn't he want to climb up? Doesn't he want to know Tu Xin's weaknesses? He doesn't want to know Tu Ling The secret of the mansion?"
The guard narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.
If not for this woman being able to stay by the president's side, she could also be a sharp weapon to kill Chu Yang.
She doesn't even pay attention to Tu Xin, it seems she still has two brushes.
"Sorry, Mr. Song just finished a game, I'm afraid I don't have time to see you now."
Ji Yuqing was stunned, the game was over?
It was always dark in the dungeon, and it was impossible to summon the system panel, let alone check the time.
Ji Yuqing thought of something and asked hurriedly: "How is Ji Dian? Is he injured?"
Seeing that she was still caring about her younger brother, the guard could not utter two words: "Alive."
Ji Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, but then thought about it and felt something was wrong.
alive? What does it mean to be alive?
Nie Peng was alive back then, but how could he be considered alive!
Ji Yuqing thought quickly in her mind, and then she raised her eyes to look at the person in front of her.
"Your name is Li Yunyi, right? I won't embarrass you, just tell me whether Ji Dian has any health problems now. I will thank you very much when I go out in the future."
This woman still doesn’t give up.
The guard squatted on the steps, looked at Ji Yuqing and sighed.
"Speaking of which, Miss Ji was pretty good to me before. Don't worry, the young master is very powerful. He killed three people in the first game. The president almost didn't take any action. Even Lord Tu Xin was stolen from the limelight by him. .”
Ji Yuqing subconsciously covered her mouth when she heard this.
Ji Dian killed someone?
How old was he before Fang Shuning forced him to kill someone? !
Ji Yuqing tried her best to suppress the sourness in her eyes.
It's okay, it's okay, at least he's alive, as long as he's alive.
In this broken place, if you don't kill people, you will die yourself. Although Fang Shuning's educational concept is extreme, he has to admit that it is right.
Ji Yuqing tried to calm down.
So according to this person, Fang Shuning, Tu Xin, Song Zhi, and Jidian should all be in this game.
There is another person who I don’t know who.
The guard looked at her and pondered in his mind. Ji Yuqing was a beautiful white rose in the Tu Ling Mansion before she infiltrated the Alliance Army and became the apple of Chu Yang's eye. At that time, many people under her command were still fond of her. I have fantasies.
But now, she is imprisoned here, and her brother is too young to help her, so her ending can be imagined. What a pity for such a beautiful and smart girl.
If this were to be placed in the game, it is estimated that many people would come to save her one after another.
It's a pity that this is a really deadly place, and there's that pervert Fang Shuning right above him.
Who dares?
The guard looked at Ji Yuqing with great emotion.
"Miss Ji, if you have anything else to ask, please change your shift immediately. The next one won't be as easy to talk to as me."
The guard showed kindness, but Ji Yuqing shook her head.
She knew that the man in front of her was the guard at the lowest level of Tu Ling Mansion. He could only say a word to Song Zhi, and could not even contact Tu Xin, let alone send a message to Fang Shuning for her.
"There's nothing you can do to help me, thank you."
The guard nodded and stood up, but was stopped by the person next door.
"Hey, brother, I'm so hungry. If we don't bring food at this hour, are we going to starve to death?"
He looked sideways and saw the little Mint with nails in his mouth leaning weakly against the railing.
This guy has killed a lot of people before.
Now she was dressed in women's clothing and had double ponytails.
The guard felt disgusted for no reason and rolled his eyes at him.
"Before the president orders execution, if you can't starve to death, just wait."
After saying that, the man turned around and left the dungeon.
The dungeon door was opened for a moment, and suddenly a strong wind passed by the guard, and the door was blown completely open.
The guard shielded his eyes. After the gust of wind passed, he rubbed his eyes and looked around, but there was nothing around him.
"Strange, where does the wind come from in this dungeon..."
The guard shook his head and looked up to see the man on shift walking towards him not far away. He no longer thought about it, closed the door and walked towards them to hand over the key.
The dungeon door here is closed, and the surroundings are once again shrouded in darkness.
Ji Yuqing leaned hopelessly in front of the railing, staring at the small window above, wondering what she was thinking.
Little Mint on the side had a calm voice.
"Sister, don't you think it's strange? We were arrested just after we came out of the ancient city of Luoxi? How can the president be so well-informed?"
"This matter probably has nothing to do with Chu Yang."
"Huh? What's that for?"
Ji Yuqing smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, little Mint, it was me who got you into trouble. I should be the only one they want to arrest."
"Sister, don't say that. What happened? Even if, even if the president feels that we have betrayed him, he will most likely take action directly and won't lock us up first, right?"
Ji Yuqing looked at the small window and shook her head.
"Ji Dian and I are of great use to the master. My skill is healing, and his skill is killing people invisible. Our siblings were separated purely because Fang Shuning wanted to use them to contain each other, because whoever killed us would die. Even Fang Shuning can't guarantee that he can completely control the other one. So he can only lock me here. As for why, it probably has something to do with that person's identity."
Little Mint turned over and lay on the railing: "You mean... the president's brother?"
"I knew his identity, but I was caught when I was still hesitating whether to tell Yun Xiao about it. I guess that person was going to take action in the competition. Before that, in order to avoid making any mistakes, I decided to I caught him."
"He wanted to kill Yun Xiao? Sister, you didn't tell Yun Xiao about this?"
Ji Yuqing thought of something and held her head in pain.
"Actually before entering the castle, I was still hesitating whether to risk everything and trust a little girl. I knew very well that as long as I made a decision, Fang Shuning would not let me go. Likewise, Ji Dian would be implicated by me and be in danger. . Now thinking about it, I actually have no choice at all. Fang Shuning only treats us as tools. If we don't escape as soon as possible, Ji Dian and I will become his abandoned pawns sooner or later. It's okay now. It was my indecision that allowed me to escape. Hope is extinguished. Now Ji Dian has been taken to the competition by them. It is estimated that he will face Yun Xiao soon. I barely saved Ji Dian's life in the last competition. Now he can't contact me. I don't know Yun Xiao. Will Xiao think that I have defected..."
Little Mint was about to say something to comfort her, but she heard a strange voice suddenly appear in the darkness.
"It's not too late to choose now."
The two of them were stunned. Ji Yuqing heard the voice very familiar and immediately turned over and sat up.
"who?!"
In the darkness, a young man took off his cloak, and the only ray of light in the dungeon fell on a head of yellow hair, and the entire dark dungeon suddenly became bright.
Ji Yuqing was indescribably shocked when she saw his face.
"Chai Xiaoqi?!"
Thinking of the gust of wind when the guard opened the door, Ji Yuqing felt her heartbeat speed up instantly.
Was he sent by Yun Xiao to find him? !
"It's impossible for my arrest to be leaked, but how did she guess it?"
"Your brother went to the battlefield, but there was no news about you. Sister Xiaoxiao guessed that you might be locked up here, so she asked me to come and find out." Chai Xiaoqi scratched his hair.
Ji Yuqing looked at him and was about to say something, but she looked at the iron railing in front of her and weakly twitched the corners of her mouth.
"Even if you can get in, you can't get out."
Chai Xiaoqi squatted outside the cell and looked at Ji Yuqing.
"I was able to escape from here, and now you can too. But I am different from Sister Xiaoxiao. I will not save people who are of no value to me. I just heard that you have been hesitating, so let me ask again. Once again, have you made your decision? As long as you walk out of this castle, you will be one of ours, and there is no turning back."
Ji Yuqing looked at the young man in front of him. His face was no longer as pale as before, and his figure was much stronger than before. What changed the most was his eyes.
I remember that when I first met him, this young man looked childish and reckless.
It had only been a few months now, and it was as if he had become a different person.
Is it because of Yun Xiao?
This girl is extremely smart and sharp, and she is ruthless. She never hesitates whenever she encounters an adverse situation.
He seems to care about everything, but he doesn't stick to trivial matters in big matters.
Ji Yuqing looked at Chai Xiaoqi firmly.
"I choose Yun Xiao."
Chai Xiaoqi raised the corners of his mouth, showing a long-lost smile.
"Congratulations, you chose a way to survive."
As he spoke, he took out a metal fork in his hand and pried a few times at the door lock on the side.
With a click, the door opened.
Ji Yuqing's eyes suddenly lit up. As soon as she walked out of the cell door, she ran to the door of Xiao Mint's cell.
"Little Mint is mine, please open the door for him."
Chai Xiaoqi frowned and looked at Xiao Mint in the cell.
"Sister Xiaoxiao only asked me to save you, but she didn't say she would bring another one."
"Please, he was implicated by me. Now that I can leave, I can't leave him behind."
Little Mint was leaning against the wall, still chewing the nails on the tip of his tongue, but he raised his eyes to look at Chai Xiaoqi.
"That cloak is not big. It's big enough for two people, and it's even more impossible for three people. You can take your sister and leave."
Ji Yuqing shook his head: "Little Mint, they will definitely find out as soon as I leave, don't you know that Fang Shuning! He will never let you go. Obediently, you come with me. Before they come back, as long as As soon as we can run out of the castle gate, we will teleport elsewhere."
Little Mint smiled when he heard this.
"Sister, during your absence, the security in the castle has changed drastically. Because this brother had escaped once before, he would have become angry. Although he treated Tu Xing lightly at that time, he took it in the blink of an eye. He did the trick and almost had his intestines taken out. Do you think Tu Xin, who has suffered this, will only put a few rookies on top?"
Ji Yuqing said anxiously: "You can't use skills in the castle, so what can you do no matter how powerful you are? In the worst case, you have to fight hand to hand!"
Xiao Mint looked at Chai Xiaoqi: "Brother, your journey has not been easy, has it?"
Upon hearing this, Chai Xiaoqi walked up to Xiao Mint.
"To be honest, Ji Dian is still in Fang Shuning's hands, so your sister still wants something from Sister Xiaoxiao, so she shouldn't betray Sister Xiaoxiao, but you..."
Little Mint yawned: "That's right, I'm not sure. So don't waste any effort. They will find out and come over soon, and none of us can run away. Okay, you go quickly, don't disturb my sleep."
Seeing that the person in front of him looked indifferent and even wanted to turn over and sleep, Chai Xiaoqi smiled slightly.
"Aren't you afraid that I'm here to kidnap your sister? After all, Ji Dian is about to enter the finals to play against Sister Xiaoxiao."
After saying this, Xiao Mint opened his eyes as expected. He immediately climbed to the cell railing and stared at Chai Xiaoqi.
Seeing the smile in the young man's eyes, he suddenly calmed down.
"Aren't you exciting me? What good will it do to you to let me go with you?"
Chai Xiaoqi smiled even brighter when he saw the man crawling over.
I have long heard that there is a person with air control skills in Tu Ling Mansion, and it is probably this little mint.
But at the moment, Ji Yuqing seems to be his weakness.
That's easy to say.
After all, Sister Xiaoxiao is really short of people here.
"So, are you leaving or not?"
