Did I make a mistake?
Impossible!
Although Sun Mo didn't major in psychology, in order to lead a class well back then, he had bought quite a lot of books on this subject and researched it.
Based on Yang Shizhan's personality, he was obviously the kind of person who would find fault with himself when he made a mistake. He would put all the blame on himself and then go to a dead end.
To put it simply, this kind of person was too harsh on himself and too lenient towards others.
Moreover, it had only been six months since she had taught him the Undying Mystic Art. Yet, he had already mastered it?
"Who ran away?"
Yu Lin rolled up his sleeves. "I'll help you catch them!"
"Go back to prison!"
Ji Han glared at Yu Lin.
"Have you taken any countermeasures?"
Sun Mo frowned. "The most important thing now is to seal the entire prison and not let anyone leave!"
"It's done!"
Ji Han still had this ability. "They also launched a large search, but they couldn't find him, so the warden asked me to come to you for help."
"Did Yang Shizhan run away?"
Sun Mo was a little worried. That fellow was very strong. If he escaped and joined Dark Dawn, he would cause great damage to the Nine Provinces.
"Yang Yasheng?"
Ji Han was stunned. "He's already turned into a human swine. He doesn't even have arms and legs. How can he run?"
"I know, it's Kong Yuxin, right?"
Yu Lin clapped his hands and revealed an expression that said 'yes, it's definitely him'.
Ji Han raised his leg and kicked him. He laughed sinisterly, "I think you are his accomplice. Let's go to the confinement room!"
"Boss Ji, I was wrong. I'll shut up!"
After Yu Lin finished speaking, he forcefully closed his mouth and even made a suturing motion with his hand.
"Kong Yuxin?"
Sun Mo thought about it. "I don't think I've seen this person before?"
Thinking about it, it had been almost two years since Sun Mo came to the Impasse Prison. Even though he had broken through and learned many things, he didn't have any progress in completing the test.
"He spent most of his time in solitary confinement!"
Ji Han's face darkened. At the mention of this prisoner, he was filled with anger.
"Hmm?"
Sun Mo knew that there was a confinement room on the sixth level of the prison. If a prisoner committed a mistake, they would be thrown in there.
It was a dog kennel that was as dark as ink.
This was not a description, but a fact. It was a very small doghouse. An adult could only stand in it. They couldn't even curl up and lie down because there wasn't enough space.
This kind of cruel punishment made many prisoners very obedient, and they tried their best not to make mistakes.
But according to Ji Han, this Kong Yuxin had been kept in the confinement room?
"That guy refused to mend his ways despite repeated admonitions and frequently ran away. As a punishment, the longest time he was locked up in solitary confinement for two years."
Yu Lin revealed.
Kong Yuxin was considered a celebrity in the Hopeless Prison.
Although everyone had thought of escaping after entering this place, they had given up on the thought of rushing out of the prison and facing the endless sea. However, Kong Yuxin didn't do that. His most powerful escape was thirty miles out of the sea. If he hadn't been unlucky enough to encounter a storm, he might have been able to escape.
"Why did he run? Is there any injustice? "
Sun Mo was impressed. Was this the Shawshank's redemption?
"I can believe it if someone else is wronged, but Kong Yuxin deserves it!"
Yu Lin spat out a mouthful of phlegm, his expression filled with disdain. "He actually fell in love with his personal student. This is a great violation of a teacher's ethics."
"..."
Sun Mo didn't know how he should reply. A teacher and student falling in love was a taboo even in the modern era, let alone ancient times. Even if the teacher and student were truly in love and became husband and wife in private, they still had to pay attention to their public image.
"There's a hole in Kong Yuxin's brain. If the two of you really loved each other, wouldn't it be fine if you went to a place where no one knew you? However, this guy refused to do so. He even publicly announced that he loved his student and wanted to marry her, giving her a lifetime of happiness! "
When Yu Lin started gossiping, he was even noisier than 500 ducks. "He wanted their wedding to receive blessings from their friends and family. For the sake of marriage, he even announced that he gave up his identity as a great teacher."
"He's also a ruthless person!"
Sun Mo was convinced.
"After that, he was captured by the Saint Gate and thrown into prison."
Yu Lin mocked, "His actions are simply slapping the Saint Gate's faces. It would be a wonder if those old antiques from the Saint Gate would let him off."
"I have no idea what this guy is insisting on."
Ji Han also had a helpless look on her face.
In this world, there were some things that could only be done and not said. Humans lived for the sake of their face. However, Kong Yuxin insisted on holding a grand wedding.
"How many years has he been locked up here?"
Sun Mo was curious. "How many times has he escaped?"
"30 years."
Ji Han calculated. "The number of times he has successfully escaped from the prison gate is a total of 36 times. The number of times he was discovered and stopped in time is even higher."
"Does this mean that he escapes once every year or so?"
Sun Mo was shocked. What kind of spirit was this?
If it was someone else, they would have given up all hope if they kept on escaping, right?
"The crux is that 30 years have passed and they haven't even met each other once. Their love should have withered by now, right?"
Yu Lin felt that Kong Yuxin had already gone crazy.
"Don't bother about whether it has withered or not. Let's find him first!"
Ji Han was very nervous. Ever since the Impassable Prison was established, no one had ever escaped. If Kong Yuxin succeeded, Ji Han's name would become a joke in the great teacher world.
"Teacher Sun, please make a move!"
Ji Han put down his pride and pleaded humbly.
There was no solution to it. Kong Yuxin's escape record was simply too terrifying. Moreover, he had the battle record of successfully escaping from the island. Hence, he couldn't care about his pride at this moment.
"Which prison cell was he staying in before he escaped?"
Sun Mo quickened his steps. "Bring me there!"
...
Although Kong Yuxin was a 4-star great teacher and his star rank wasn't high, he was locked up in the fifth level because he had repeatedly escaped.
The prison he was locked up in was very simple. Other than a stone bed and some withered grass, there wasn't even a blanket.
The prison was built with a thick metal door and there was a spirit rune lock on it. This lock was specially made. If one didn't have the key, they would sound an ear-piercing alarm if they touched it for five seconds.
Right now, the lock had been destroyed.
"Kong Yuxin definitely has an insider. Look at his lockpicking skills, there should be a spirit rune ancestor helping him."
Just when Sun Mo arrived, he heard a man talking nonsense.
The other party's looks were ordinary, the type where one wouldn't be able to find him in a crowd. However, the expression on his face was one of self-confidence and arrogance, as though he was the number one in the world. It made people want to give him two punches.
Sun Mo knew this person. His name was Zhang Qingmin, a 4-star great teacher. Because he was researching forbidden arts, he was discovered by the Saint Gate and was locked up here.
In the past, Sun Mo had looked for him and ended up being scolded.
In any case, this was an arrogant fellow who considered everyone else beneath him. Moreover, he was self-righteous and felt that everyone else was a fool.
"There are over ten spirit rune grandmasters locked up in the prison, but it's impossible for him to be an ancestor level spirit rune ancestor."
Ji Han retorted.
"Old Ji, your brain is too inflexible."
Zhang Qingmin stretched out his hand and tapped his temple, lecturing Ji Han. "Can't he continue to research knowledge during these years of being locked up?"
This tone was asking for a beating, but Ji Han endured it. After all, this fellow's intelligence wasn't low. If Sun Mo couldn't do it, he could only rely on him.
"Oh right, isn't there also the youngest spirit rune ancestor in the Nine Provinces? He might be the one who helped Kong Yuxin to escape!"
Zhang Qingmin glanced at Sun Mo. His tone was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
He felt that he was an absolute genius. Even if he was experimenting with forbidden arts, he did it for the sake of the common people and not for his own selfish desires. However, the Saint Gate didn't listen to his explanation and suppressed him instead.
How preposterous!
The great teachers of the Nine Provinces, including Sect Leader Su Taiqing, were a bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well. They were a bunch of summer bugs that couldn't be understood by words.
Zhang Qingmin looked at the overly young Sun Mo as his heart was filled with jealousy and anger. (If it wasn't for the Saint Gate being so nosy, my research would've been completed and I would be a famous spirit rune ancestor now.)
"Zhang Qingmin, don't talk nonsense."
Ji Han berated.
"Hmph, it's not just him. Everyone in the prison is a suspect!"
Zhang Qingmin's gaze swept through everyone present. "He didn't leave any traces in the prison and left without anyone noticing. Other than having a spy, tell me, what other methods do we have?"
"Go, gather all the prisoners and prison guards. I want to give them a lecture!"
Zhang Qingmin commanded in a domineering manner.
Ji Han didn't move and looked at Sun Mo instead.
"I need all of Zhang Qingmin's information, as well as how he escaped each time. You guys should have records, right? Hand them over as well! "
Sun Mo instructed.
"Hehe, by the time you finish looking, he would have returned to the Nine Provinces."
Zhang Qingmin sneered.
"No, he only left the prison two days ago. There isn't enough time."
Sun Mo shook his head.
"Eh!"
Zhang Qingmin choked for a moment. (I'm mocking you. What's with you answering so honestly?)
(Your EQ isn't high enough?)
"Why two days?"
Yu Lin asked. He had thickened his skin and followed them because he was a godly thief and knew a lot of things. Ji Han felt that he might be able to help.
"It's because this spirit rune lock was opened two days ago."
Speaking until here, Zhang Qingmin threw a glance at Sun Mo. This guy had some capabilities. To be able to see this, he must have a deep understanding of spirit runes.
"Teacher Zhang, have you never suspected that Kong Yuxin had escaped long ago and intentionally left behind traces of the spirit rune lock to lure us?"
Sun Mo counter-asked, "Since Kong Yuxin could escape so many times, there must be no problem with his intelligence, right?"
"..."
Kong Yuxin's countenance sank because this possibility was basically set in stone.
"Then how can we accurately determine where Kong Yuxin has escaped to?
Time? "
Yu Lin was curious.
"It's not that he escaped, but that he left the prison!"
Sun Mo assessed the surroundings. "He might not have left the prison yet!"
"Who doesn't know of such a guess? What's important is the evidence! "
Zhang Qingmin looked at Sun Mo provocatively. "Do you have it?"
Swoosh!
Everyone's gazes turned to Sun Mo.
Sun Mo shrugged.
"I really do have it!"
As Sun Mo spoke, he bit his index finger and performed the spiritual control technique, summoning Holy Pharaoh.
