Chapter 276 "Yeah" and "Oh"
Chaotianque treated Li Chu with extremely high standards.
Three great men of the Zhansui Realm came in person and "escorted" him all the way to the iron prison outside the city. The prisoners here were all powerful criminals, each of whom had a great reputation. People of the level of Dongliu Gang leader Chen Hutou were not qualified to be imprisoned here.
Normally, Elder Wei stays in the city, while the strongest Elder Jin has been suppressing the place.
In the Heluo Dynasty, there were only three prisons of this level. One was the Heavenly Prison in Chaoge City, one was the Ghost Prison whose location was still unknown, and the other was the Iron Prison in Shenluo City.
The reason for this name is that the entire prison is built with a huge piece of ancient meteorite iron stone, which has supreme defense and is indestructible.
During the test on the day of completion, even the full-strength attack of the immortals on land could not break the cage.
The prisoners imprisoned there are also restricted by many seals inside and outside. Ninety percent of their spiritual power will be lost, making it impossible for them to cause any trouble again.
Li Chu followed a few people all the way to the iron prison.
Duan Geng came over wearing a strange garment covered with gold and iron talismans, and said embarrassedly: "The rule here is to have three seals inside and outside. But since you haven't been convicted yet, Taoist Xiao Li, I asked them to exempt you from the soul-suppressing nails and dragon-trapping locks, leaving only this Faluo garment. I don't know if you mind wearing it. If you do, I can discuss... changing the style for you."
The tone highlights humility.
Among the Soul-Soothing Nail, Dragon-Trapping Chain and Farrow Robe, this robe has the most powerful sealing power.
The talismans and magic arrays above were all written by powerful people, and each one had the effect of suppressing cultivation. The name "Faluo" not only means the seal name "Wanfa Tianluo", but also has the homophonic meaning of "faluo".
"Hmm...it looks a bit exaggerated and a bit rustic." Li Chu took a look and said, "It's barely wearable. Let's go with this one."
Good guy...
Duan Geng complained silently in his heart.
You, who have never changed your clothes, yet you look down on my taste.
However, I have to admit that this strange-looking clothes suddenly looked dazzling when worn by Li Chu.
Even Duan Geng didn't expect that his vision was so good.
After putting on a faro robe, Duan Geng personally accompanied the people in the iron prison to send Li Chu in, and then came back to meet several big men.
Duan Lulong saw him coming and asked, "Will wearing only a Faro robe be able to seal his cultivation?"
"Other Faluoyi have eighteen seals, or twenty-four." Duan Geng said: "His... has seventy-two seals, so it should be okay..."
"Seventy-two?" Elder Jin knew the most about this and was surprised. "This is the upper limit of the Faluo Robe. If an ordinary person in the Zhan Sui realm puts it on, they will be suppressed and unable to walk. If you put it on, you might vomit blood!"
"Oh?" Duan Lulong raised his eyebrows.
Just now Li Chu walked away as if nothing had happened.
"Master Xiao Li is like this."
Duan Geng looked at his father's surprised face and said in the tone of an experienced person: "Although he is young, his cultivation is unfathomable. I am always shocked by him. But one thing is that his sense of justice is beyond doubt. I have dealt with him several times before, and he always punished evil and promoted good. So I can believe that the King of the East Sea was not killed by him."
Duan Lulong's expression remained unchanged, and he said, "I believe what you say, but as law enforcement officers, we must not act on emotion."
"It's not entirely emotional." Duan Geng smiled, "If you had seen him draw his sword, you would have known... It's hard to leave a body behind easily, not to mention that there is no scar on the body of the King of the East Sea."
"It's best if it's not him." Duan Lulong nodded. "His Majesty was furious about the death of the King of Donghai, and ordered us to arrest the real culprit as soon as possible. This case must not be neglected."
The existence of the King of Kyushu, although most of the time it is similar to a mascot, and even never does good things and occasionally causes trouble.
However, it would be unacceptable in any dynasty for royal family members to be slaughtered like pigs.
"You two can just focus on the case." Wei Lao said, "Lao Jin and I will stay here together for the time being."
"It is necessary." Elder Jin nodded and smiled. "Last year, a rebel king of Golden State was imprisoned in an iron prison. Recently, I heard that the old demon king of Golden State fell. Many demon tribes hope to welcome this rebel king back. I am worried that they will take action."
"Who's worried about those monsters?" Old Wei glanced into the depths of the iron prison: "I'm still worried about the little Taoist priest..."
…
Soon, at the Chaotianque station in Shenluo City, Cui Ziyong, who had gone to the Donghai Palace with Li Chu, was brought out for interrogation.
Nearly half an hour later, Cui Ziyong returned to the prison with a complicated expression.
In the prison, Chen Hutou and his brothers from the Dongliu Gang came up to him and asked, "What's going on? Why did they ask you to leave alone?"
"They didn't do anything to you, did they?"
Cui Ziyong raised his face expressionlessly and said, "They are asking me about the little Taoist priest. Li Chu, who sent us in, has also been taken to the iron prison."
The Dongliu Gang members looked at each other and cheered in unison: "Yeah—"
Chen Hutou said with a smile: "This is a great thing. Those who can be put in the iron prison must have committed serious crimes, right?"
Cui Ziyong said: "He has not been convicted yet, and from what I know, it is very likely that he did not do it."
The Dongliu Gang members looked at each other and uttered an annoyed sound: "Oh——"
Chen Hutou asked, "So what on earth did he do wrong?"
"It was the King of Donghai. The night we went to look for the King of Donghai, the King of Donghai was killed. And he happened to have a conflict with the King of Donghai, so it was difficult for him to get rid of suspicion." Cui Ziyong said.
After that, he added in a sinister tone, "It's just that I was the important eyewitness that day. With me here, I naturally wouldn't say anything that would benefit him. I fanned the flames, and now Chao Tianque's suspicion of him should have deepened greatly."
The Dongliu Gang members looked at each other and cheered in unison: "Yeah——"
Chen Hutou said excitedly: "This little Taoist priest has mocked me time and again, I should kill him! Now, even if his cultivation is high, he will definitely not have a good ending if he is hostile to Chaotianque!"
Cui Ziyong shook his head again and said, "It's a pity that it's not that simple. Most people in Chaotianque still believe in that little Taoist priest. And he personally sent us in, so it's not certain how much my testimony will be accepted."
When the Dongliu Gang heard this, they all cried out in annoyance: "Oh——"
"But..." Cui Ziyong changed the subject and said, "This is not an ordinary murder case. I guess the court must have put a lot of pressure on Chao Tianque. If they can't find the real murderer for a long time, they can only convict the little Taoist priest as the real murderer! By then, no matter if he did it or not, he will die!"
"Um?"
When the Dongliu Gang heard this, they all cheered: "Yeah——"
Chen Hutou laughed and said, "No matter what, the little Taoist priest's misfortune is a good thing for us. Why are you still so unhappy, Lao Cui?"
Cui Ziyong looked at him strangely: "Boss, I've just said so much, don't you realize the crux of the matter?"
"What's the problem?" Chen Hutou wondered, "Isn't it just that the little Taoist priest is suspected of killing the King of the East China Sea, and it's hard for him to get away with it now? Good or bad, what does it have to do with us? I wish...wait..."
A rare gleam of wisdom gradually burst out from Chen Hutou's empty eyes.
"The King of the East Sea...is dead?"
"Yes." Cui Zi said in a desperate tone: "Our biggest supporter outside is dead, so who will save us?"
His bereaved face looked just like the Seventh Young Master of the Wang Family not long ago.
When the Dongliu Gang members heard this, they looked at each other, and all cried out in pain...
"oh--"
