"Let's go in." Granny Bizhu sighed inexplicably and then said.
Jiang Wang doubted whether he would have a chance to rush out if Granny Bizhu closed the stone door after he went in. But Granny Bizhu had no reason to harm him at this time.
He came to the Sea-fishing Tower openly, and Qi was his safety card.
So he took the lead and walked down the tunnel.
After walking in, he found that the tunnel was not narrow at all. It was much wider than what he felt from the outside.
When he stood outside, he was limited by the entrance, and part of it was probably because of the formation, so he couldn't see too clearly. The tunnel was actually at least as wide as four carriages side by side, and at least three feet high.
Orbs the size of grapes were arranged in a mysterious way on the walls on both sides of the tunnel, vaguely resembling some kind of pattern. But it was too far apart, so he couldn't visualize it in his mind.
The worrisome thing didn't happen. Granny Bizhu followed him into the tunnel with her dragon-headed walking stick.
The stone door behind them did slowly rise again, but with the elders of the Sea-fishing Tower beside them, there was nothing to worry about.
Before going deeper, Jiang Wang looked back. There was only a gap left at the entrance, and the light from outside the prison could be seen. Soon, it was completely sealed by the falling stone door.
It gave people an inexplicable feeling of oppression, as if some kind of hope had been annihilated.
"Is this stone door only strong and heavy? It doesn't seem to be able to stop strong people. "Jiang Wang asked casually.
"Of course not." Granny Bizhu seemed to feel his uneasiness, and her tone was very kind. "If it wasn't me who moved the door just now, the formation pattern would have been activated."
Jiang Wang didn't ask about the specific formation pattern. He just stopped and waited for a while, and then walked side by side with Granny Bizhu.
After taking a few steps, Granny Bizhu suddenly warned, "If someone talks to you later, just deal with it. Don't offend them."
Her serious attitude was really a little unnerving.
"Who would they be?" Jiang Wang asked.
"Prison guards." Granny Bizhu only said these two words, and didn't say anything else.
Her old figure didn't stop, and she continued to walk in.
Jiang Wang had no choice but to follow him inside.
The tunnel was very long, and the further they went, the deeper they went. According to the estimation of the distance, they should have already reached the bottom of the sea, and were still going down.
At the end of the long passageway, there was another heavy stone door. There was still no one guarding the door.
Jiang Wang drew the pattern of the pearls on both sides of the corridor in his mind and discovered … that it was a dragon!
On both sides of the passageway, two divine dragons were outlined with precious pearls!
Twin Dragon Prison?
Fishing Sea Tower really liked to abuse dragons. They made dragon coins, built dragon bone boats, and used dragons to create the Wall of Suppressing Prison.
It was as if all sides were intentionally echoing the legend of their founder, "One man alone, fishing for dragons from the ends of the world".
This time, there was no need to push the door open. Granny Bizhu directly held the door knocker on the stone door and gently knocked twice before letting it go.
Jiang Wang suddenly felt that he was being watched by some kind of cold gaze. That kind of gaze was like a worm, drilling into one's body, making one feel very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the "observation" ended quickly.
Not long after, the stone door was pulled open from the inside.
Standing behind the door, the person who had just opened the door for them was a drunkard in shabby clothes. With messy hair that looked like a chicken's nest, he walked in without looking back.
It was as if he didn't care at all about what Jiang Wang and the others were doing here.
Granny Bizhu didn't speak, and Jiang Wang didn't say anything either.
Not far behind the stone door, there was a dirty table, on which dominoes were placed haphazardly.
There were also three people sitting crookedly on three seats at the table. Two of them were shirtless, exposing their chest hair and fat. The one wearing clothes was rubbing his feet with one hand.
In short, each of them was more slovenly than the other, and the wine jugs were tilted at their feet.
They were obviously drinking and playing Pai Gow at the same time.
These people should be the prison guards that Granny Bizhu mentioned. They were completely different from Jiang Wang's imagination. Since Granny Bizhu warned them seriously, they were definitely dangerous people. At the very least, they should have a cold face and murderous aura around them.
He didn't expect them to look like a group of muddle-headed vagrants.
But on second thought, Jiang Wang thought that maybe it was because they could only eat and wait for death here with no other way out that they were particularly dangerous.
Chicken's Nest Head, who opened the door for Granny Bizhu, walked straight to the empty seat, burped, and cursed, "Who dares to change my cards, I'll kill him!"
Ten steps behind the table was a cast-iron fence. There was only one door on the fence, and it was already open.
Through the gap in the fence, they could see a long corridor behind the fence. But this time, there were no longer walls on both sides of the corridor, but cells.
Some cells were occupied, and some were not. But they were all quiet.
"F * ck you!" The prison guard opposite Chicken's Nest Head, who was scratching his feet, cursed, "What's there to change with those lousy cards of yours?"
Chicken's Nest Head slammed the table. "You really saw my cards!"
He mixed the dominoes on the table with his hand. "You cheated! This round doesn't count! "
"F * ck you!"
The prison guard who was scratching his feet cursed, but he obviously admitted it and did not stop Chicken's Nest Head from reshuffling the cards.
Granny Bizhu did not greet them and walked behind the iron fence. Jiang Wang followed silently.
"Hey!" While Chicken's Nest Head was shuffling the cards, the prison guard who was scratching his feet looked at Jiang Wang from the corner of his eyes. "I've never seen you before. Where are you from?"
Jiang Wang thought about Granny Bizhu's warning and replied, "Linzi."
"Oh, Qi Ren!"
There was no good or bad in this sentence, it was just a simple repetition of information. After saying that, he continued to scratch his feet.
Chicken's Nest Head, who had already shuffled the cards and was counting them, suddenly stopped and rubbed his messy hair.
He turned his face and looked at Jiang Wang curiously. "Since you're Qi Ren, why don't you tell us how Bi Yuanjie died?"
The other three prison guards also looked over, and they instantly felt a little pressured.
"Bi Yuanjie?" Jiang Wang frowned. He had never heard of this name.
"He was also a prison guard here, but he escaped." Granny Bizhu's voice explained, "Later, he joined the Gateless Hell and was one of the Yama-Kings. I think he was … King Biancheng. "
King Biancheng of the Gateless Hell was a prison guard of the Sea Prison!
Every Yama-King was a top expert in the Outer Tower. In other words, these four slovenly guys playing Pai Gow in front of him should also be in this realm.
Four top experts in the Outer Tower as prison guards! In addition to Bi Yuanjie, who escaped before, there were five of them!
The prison guards of this Sea Prison were the strongest in Jiang Wang's knowledge.
No …
Jiang Wang suddenly thought. Since Bi Yuanjie was a prison guard, why did he "escape"?
It was always the prisoners who escaped from prison. He had never heard of prison guards escaping from prison.
Unless, the prison guards here could not leave on their own accord. They were also under some kind of restriction …
With these questions in his mind, Jiang Wang replied honestly, "It seems that he was killed by the leader of the night watchmen in Linhai County."
The four prison guards who were holding the cards looked at each other for a while. Their expressions were half-smiling, half-crying, and half-crying.
In the end, they continued to hold the cards, and no one looked at Jiang Wang again.
