Chapter 1 Day Ghost
The morning mist has not dissipated, and the weeds on both sides of the mountain are still hanging with dewdrops, which are crystal clear.
Langshishan Prison is still immersed in a haze. The mountain wind blew, and the haze drifted away like white ribbons, revealing the prison hidden in the fog. The whole Wolf Stone Mountain prison lies like a giant beast at the foot of Wolf Stone Mountain. The prison wall is five feet seven feet high and one foot wide. It is equipped with arrow piles to avoid arrows, arrow towers for archery, and the watchtower for viewing, which is no different from the wall. Above the prison wall, a team of heavily armed Thunder Army soldiers passed by with their heads held high, walking at the same pace and meticulously. In the arrow tower, the archer looked at the inside and outside of the prison wall with the bow in his hand and the arrow in his hand. On the watchtower, the people who looked at it held thousands of miles and kept searching inside and outside the prison. In this way, the whole Langshishan prison is solid and heavily guarded!
Less than five miles away from the prison, on the open plain, a huge camp stretches for several miles. That camp is the camp of the Thunder Army.
In the morning wind, the banners are hunting and dancing, with a solemn atmosphere. The four-way army of the Taiming Dynasty, the Thunder Army is one of them, the elite division guarding the western territory. The other three major forces are the Storm Army, guarding the southern territory. The Flame Army guarded the eastern territory. The divine army guarded the northern territory.
The four commanders guard the army in all directions are like gods guarding a country. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are sacred and inviolable. He has a high status and strong power.
Yuan Batian, the commander of the Thunder Army, is one of the four military gods. And Langshishan Prison is the place where he imprisoned prisoners of war and enemies. He controls everything here, including the life and death of all people!
The whole Langshishan prison is not only guarded by a hundred jailers, but also a 500-person shocking thunder army iron camp, coupled with the blockade of the surrounding 200,000 troops. How can it be easy to escape from here?
However, even if it is more difficult than climbing to the sky, Bai Niao Chong still has not given up the hope of freedom in his heart.
"Quick, fast, fast! Don't fucking ink. You can't finish the task of logging today. No one wants to have a meal!" The jailer shouted fiercely at the prisoner who came out of the prison, and from time to time shook the whip in his hand in the air, bursting out a loud whip.
A group of more than 20 prisoners lined up in a column and silently wanted to walk forward. If anyone walks slowly, the whip in the hand of the jailer Nie Qian will really fall on his body.
The Langshi Mountain Forest Farm is halfway up the mountain, and the timber resources are very rich. Among them, there are many precious wood such as red sandalwood. The prisoner cut out the wood and put it on the yard along the slide. Ordinary wood will be transported to the nearest Fire City wood market and disappear. Such precious wood as red sandalwood will be shipped to Shuntian City, Kyoto, Taiming Kingdom, and handed over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which can only be used by the royal family.
Red sandalwood symbolizes the majesty and dignity of the heavenly family. Behind it is the blood and tears of the prisoner.
Hundreds of birds rushed to the end of the team, and their heads drooped slightly. In Langshishan Prison, sometimes the disaster comes just because of a look. Unless it is necessary, he will not go to the jailer head-on. This is what he has gained from countless floggings.
The wound on the arm is well wrapped. From last night to now, the wound has been scarred and no blood flowed out. But he still deliberately smeared some blood on the cloth to let people see the blood stains. If there is no blood stain and you can't see that it is the cloth that wraps the wound, the jailer will be suspicious and may even let him untie it, causing unnecessary trouble.
In the wound, there is the money to buy the life of the hell's soul, and the hundred birds will not let it make any mistakes.
When you come to the forest, the sun has appeared on the eastern sky. The warm sunlight dispelled the haze between the forests and showed the original appearance of the vast forest. Looking around, it is full of tree trunks towering into the clouds, umbrella-like crowns, and vines falling from the branches. Occasionally, a squirrel skimmed over the branch and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.
The jailer Nie opened the prisoner's fetters and took the cutting tools such as axes and saws from the forest warehouse. One person sent the same tool in his hand. Finally, he said, "Those who can come to work in the forest farm are relatively honest people. They also give you this opportunity based on your down-to-earth and willingness. Otherwise, Send it to the mine, you will die in less than three months, so I won't say more about the warning. If you want to sneak away, touch your forehead first and think about whether you can avoid the tracking of tiger dogs and iron feather eagles. Well, go to work!"
Tiger dog is a beast that is more fierce than a tiger. The physique is a little smaller than that of a tiger, but it has faster speed and strength. This kind of beast is born with super tracking ability. As long as you smell the residual smell on your clothes, you can catch it even if you run a thousand miles. The prisoner chased by the tiger dog could not be brought back and was directly bitten into pieces. Tiger dogs' favorite food is the human heart.
Iron feather eagle, a raptor that dominates the sky. Flying at an altitude of 1,000 meters, you can also see the hares hidden in the grass on the ground. Its wings are spread out, three times larger than the iron door of the cell. Its claws can easily grab a cow. Its eagle's beak can easily peck through the armor. This kind of raptor has incredible vision. Unless you can hide in the ground, you can't escape its pursuit. Iron Feather Eagle's favorite food is the human brain.
The whole Langshishan Prison has 18 tiger dogs and 18 iron-feathered eagles.
With tiger dogs and iron feather eagles chasing escaped prisoners, no one has ever successfully escaped in the past 30 years since the establishment of Langshishan Prison. It is also because of these two kinds of animal claws that the whole wolf stone mountain area can't even find a tiger and lion. It turns out that some of them have been killed by them and become things in the abdomen.
Escape, Bainiao Chong will not have such a stupid idea. At least, it won't happen until he is not absolutely sure.
After arranging the prisoner's work, Nie Qian lay on a zebra clip, took out a wine jug and a pile of dry peanuts and drank a little wine. As for how the prisoner cut wood, he won't take care of it. He only has to count the wood at the end of the work. If the quantity is not enough, his whip will taste the taste of blood. He will not care whether the prisoner will escape or not. As he said before, it is tantamount to seeking his own death. In the mine, there are prisoners who can't survive and want to escape, but not here, because logging is a relatively happy job for prisoners. First, the scope of activities is relatively large. Second, if you are lucky, you can also pick wild fruits and catch a hare or something. And he always leaves a little sweetness for the prisoners after eating the best food to cultivate their enthusiasm.
More than 20 prisoners filed into the forest area and selected suitable trees to cut down.
Hundred Birds chose a relatively remote position, with a needle pine twice as thick as its thigh, and waved an axe to cut it down. The vibration of the arm opened the wound, and some blood overflowed along the skin.
"Bai Niao Chong, how many trees are you going to cut down?" The devil's voice suddenly came out. His range of activities is seven feet seven, so he can come out and talk to Bai Niaochong without taking out the life money from the wound.
The hell and hundreds of birds who came out of the life-buying money rushed to see in the tomb, which was a green and miserable virtual image.
"Ghost, why did you come out? In case someone finds out, I'll die." Hundreds of birds suddenly became nervous.
Yan Gui said, "You can see that I am an exception. Ordinary people can't see me. Only the ghost refiners who practice ghost refining power can see my existence. Don't worry. Tell me how many trees you want to cut? When will you go back to the prison cell again?"
Hundreds of birds rushed and said, "Ghost, why are you asking this?"
Yan Gui said, "Of course, it is to teach you to practice ghost refining power. You can't practice in prison, but this forest farm is a good place to practice."
"I need to cut down three big trees. There is almost no time to rest. Where can I have a chance to practice? By the way, ghost, why can't you practice in prison? Isn't it more suitable to practice in the dead of night? Hundreds of birds can't understand what hell said.
"The ghost refiner's practice of ghost power is not the heavenly martial artist's practice of the power of heaven. Through the secret of the mind and the practice of the body, we can get the power of heaven. We divine trainers practice the power of ghosts by refining the virtual power. Now you can only start from refining the virtual shadow of vegetation, gradually strengthen your own soul, and get the power of ghost refining, and in the prison cell. Inside, where are you going to find the grass and trees to practice?"
The ghost refiner refines the virtual, strengthens the soul, and gets the ghost refining power. Hundreds of birds rush to the tribe and have some understanding from those ancient books, but that's a very superficial understanding. They only know that's the same thing, but they don't know exactly how to practice.
"In this case, ghost..." After thinking about Bai Niao Chong, he said, "There is one way, but it depends on luck."
"What's the way?"
Bainiao rushed and said, "Nie Qian, the jailer who supervises us, is a greedy guy who is greedy for money and wine. In fact, he doesn't care much about how many trees the prisoner cuts down, as long as he can cross them. What he cares about is some wild animals in the forest farm, medicinal herbs and so on that can sell for money. As long as I can find those things, he doesn't cut down trees. There is no problem, but wild animals are hard to find, and medicinal herbs that can be sold at a high price are even more difficult to find. If you take the risk of looking for it but can't find it, I may even be beaten to death.
Yan Gui smiled and said, "This is easy to do. You just go into the forest, and I can take you to find medicinal herbs."
"Ghost, why are you so confident?" Bai Niaochong doesn't believe the tunnel.
"Silly boy, even if the initial practice of a ghost refiner is to refine the virtual shadow of plants, which one doesn't know much about plants, and you don't know, every ghost refiner is actually an excellent pharmacist who can refine elixirs for various purposes, such as treating injuries, and assisting Tianwu practitioners to practice, auxiliary The ghost refiner can even refine the elixir that comes back to life.
"So, do you also know about refining medicine?" Hundreds of birds are moved.
"It's not just that. I don't know how many royals and nobles begged me to give them alchemy. When I was unhappy, I didn't pay attention to them. By the way, I'll tell you these stories later. Let's hurry up and find some valuable medicinal materials. After collecting them, you can bribe the jailer."
Hundreds of birds had no more worries about failure. They pinned the logging axe to their waist and quietly walked to the depths of the forest. At this time, although the fog in the forest had dissipated, the dense canopy covered the light, and the forest looked a little dim. Thick leaves spread on the ground to prevent weeds from growing. Their bottom layer has rotted, and when they go down, they often step on a deep footprint.
