I don't know how long it took before Zhao Yuan slowly woke up. The dark roof above his eyes looked extremely strange.

The air is also filled with the pungent smell of medicine.

"What is this place?"

Zhao Yuan thought to himself, he moved a little, and suddenly there was a sharp pain in his chest, and he felt as if he couldn't breathe all of a sudden.

"Don't move, you just saved your life from hell!"

Xiaoyaozi's voice came.

Zhao Yuan looked for the voice of Lai Yuan and reluctantly turned his head, only to see that the speaker was indeed Xiaoyaozi. The only difference was that he was now wearing a gray robe. He checked the medicinal materials on the table, nodded and said: "Well,

The medication is correct."

On the ground next to him, a middle-aged man was leaning against the wall. It looked like he had fainted.

After checking the medicine, he turned around and walked over, put his hand on Zhao Yuan's pulse, nodded slightly after a moment and said: "Old Ying seems to have some sense of proportion."

After saying that, he raised his head, looked at Zhao Yuan, and asked: "Have you ever used the moves taught by your master outside?"

Zhao Yuan was stunned. The Zuo Guardian in the prison had also said the same thing. He nodded and explained the events of that day in detail.

Xiaoyaozi couldn't help but frown slightly, then nodded and said: "No wonder Eagle Head wants to take action against you."

Zhao Yuan was confused.

Xiaoyaozi asked: "Are you wondering why your master didn't want others to kill you but did it yourself?"

Zhao Yuan nodded slightly, this was exactly what he was wondering about. He clearly stopped that Zuo Protector from killing him in the dark prison, so why did he do it himself?

Xiaoyaozi said: "If your master hadn't taken action, you would have died in the hands of Jin Yiwei's own men within half a day. And with his skills, it would be easy for you to leave a chance of survival, not to mention that I am still in prison.

."

"Death in the hands of Jin Yiwei's own people?"

Zhao Yuan was stunned and immediately understood the key point, and his heart suddenly became cold.

All the Jin Yiwei in the Black Prison are probably dead. If he is still alive, then the Jin Yiwei will definitely investigate him closely. As the only survivor who is unscathed, he must be the subject of strict investigation. With Jin Yiwei's consistent style, they will not take it lightly.

In a whisper, how long can I hold on in the face of those tortures? And once they reveal what he said in the black prison due to their own reasons, he will not be able to escape death.

He was not trying to kill himself, but was saving himself in order to clear himself of the charge of collaborating with the enemy.

Seeing the expression on Zhao Yuan's face, Xiaoyaozi also understood that he had explained clearly and said: "You have a good rest, um... someone is coming, I will leave first."

Xiaoyaozi swayed and ran out the door, while also unblocking the doctor's sealed acupuncture points.

The doctor woke up immediately and stood up quickly. He was still a little confused as to why he was leaning against the wall. However, when he saw that Zhao Yuan had woken up, he quickly stepped forward to feel the pulse carefully, checked the wound again, and said with emotion: "You are really

You are blessed with great fortune and great fortune."

Zhao Yuan forced a smile, pretending not to know anything, and asked: "What's wrong with me? Why am I here?"

The doctor said: "You have been unconscious for three days and three nights."

He turned around and took out a severed blade, raised it and said, "If this blade is even half an inch off, not even me, not even a god can save it."

Hearing what he said, Zhao Yuan felt even more enlightened. It was not that he was lucky, but that the Blood Evil Eagle King did it deliberately. If he really wanted to kill him, why would he use a knife?

After the doctor finished speaking, he turned around and put the broken blade back to its original place. However, he heard footsteps coming from the door. He followed the sound and quickly saluted: "Master Chen, Master Zhang!"

It was Chen Cheng and Zhang Sixi who came.

Zhang Sixi looked towards the bed at this moment and saw that Zhao Yuan had woken up and said, "Go down."

"yes!"

The doctor agreed.

"etc!"

Chen Cheng said, reaching out to take the broken blade from his hand, and said: "Get down!"

The doctor left in a hurry.

He looked at the half-cut blade, frowned, and said, "A Japanese weapon."

Zhang Sixi had already come to the bed and asked, "Are you feeling better?"

Zhao Yuan said a little weakly: "As far as I'm concerned, my lord, I'm feeling much better now."

Zhang Sixi nodded slightly and said: "I and Mr. Chen are here today to ask you something. You must answer carefully without hiding anything. Do you understand?"

A few days ago, thieves made a sneak attack on the Black Prison, and the Jinyi Guards suffered heavy losses. Except for Zhao Yuan, no one of the guards in the entire Black Prison survived, so only he knew what happened at that time.

Zhao Yuandao: "My subordinates dare not hide anything."

Zhang Sixi asked: "How many people attacked the black prison that day?"

Zhao Yuan was about to answer, but Chen Cheng interrupted: "Wait, let me ask!"

Zhang Sixi hesitated for a moment and stepped aside.

Chen Cheng took a step forward, his eyes seemed to be able to see through people, he stared at Zhao Yuan closely, and asked: "I want to ask you, it has been three o'clock that day, why are you still in the black prison?"

Like other jailers, Zhao Yuan's purpose of existence is actually to take care of the daily lives of the prisoners inside.

Zhao Yuan explained: "The Bloody Eagle King and Xiaoyaozi had a wedding banquet in the evening, and they drank a full jar every day. Each time they drank for more than an hour. After they finished drinking, their subordinates had to clear away the tableware.

, and prepared water for them to wash up, so my subordinates left the prison around three o'clock every day. When they were about to leave that day, there was a sudden sound of fighting outside. The subordinates were afraid and did not leave. "

Detailed records were kept every day on when the jailer entered and exited the black jail and what he brought in. This time such a major event happened, Chen Cheng was ordered to investigate in detail. As the only seriously injured Zhao Yuan, he was the most important clue. He had already arrived before he came.

I carefully checked the records about Zhao Yuan in the Black Prison. The result was just as Zhao Yuan said. Every night he would deliver two jars of spirits. After packing his things, he finally left the Black Prison three times. Therefore, what he said was not true.

wrong.

It was also the middle of the night when Beizhen Fusi was attacked.

Chen Cheng snorted softly and asked again: "You're so afraid that you stay in the prison?"

Zhao Yuandao: "Yes, the entrance to the prison is hidden, heavily guarded, and the cells are strong. There is no safer place than the prison."

This is true, and it is a very correct choice.

Seeing that there was no flaw in Zhao Yuan's words, Chen Cheng asked again: "How many people attacked the black prison that day? Did you open the door?"

Zhang Sixi was stunned. This was clearly digging a hole for Zhao Yuan, and he quickly said: "Master Chen..."

Chen Cheng turned his head and said solemnly, "I am asking him something."

Zhao Yuan pretended not to know the trap in his words, shook his head and said: "When I heard something moving outside, I planned to go take a look. I don't know why the whole door was suddenly opened from the outside.

The subordinates also hurriedly relied on the iron cage where the Blood Evil Eagle King was imprisoned to escape and narrowly escaped. Then, before they could figure out what happened, they were stabbed in the chest. As for what happened next, they didn’t know. Wait.

I’ll be here when I wake up.”

Chen Cheng asked: "What does the person who stabbed you look like?"

Zhao Yuan shook his head slightly and said: "He moved very quickly, and my subordinates didn't see clearly what he looked like."

Chen Cheng's face became even more gloomy. What Zhao Yuan said was correct. When he found him, he was actually in the cell where the Blood Fiend Eagle King was imprisoned, and the door of the cell was forcefully opened by someone's palm.

Judging from the location, if you were to go halfway, you would be smashed to death by the gate.

In addition, with the distance between him and the gate, it would be easy for him to kill him.

The only thing that puzzled Chen Cheng was why the half-severed blade inserted into Zhao Yuan's body was stabbed instead of chopped?

Seeing that Chen Cheng had asked everything he wanted to ask, Zhang Sixi quickly said: "Okay, you have a good rest first. Master Chen, should we go back to resume our duties?"

Chen Cheng glared at Zhang Sixi fiercely, turned around and walked out of the house. Zhang Sixi nodded to Zhao Yuan and immediately chased after him. After leaving the door, he said: "Do you think he is a traitor?"

Chen Cheng said: "I didn't say that, but he is the only one who survived in the whole black prison, and he is the most suspicious!"

Zhang Sixi said: "The biggest suspect? Don't forget, when I found him, his life was hanging by a thread. If he hadn't been lucky, he would have died by someone else's knife! If he was the suspect? Beizhen Fusi

Isn’t it true that everyone alive is suspect?”

Chen Cheng turned around sharply, stared at Zhang Sixi closely, and said: "I have been ordered to investigate this matter thoroughly, so please don't act emotionally!"

Zhang Sixi was not afraid at all and said: "You are the one who uses emotions!"

Chen Cheng retorted: "I'm just talking about the matter. The broken blade is obviously the weapon used by the Japanese pirates. The Japanese use knives, mainly to chop with both hands, but the knife wounds on the body were stabbed. In addition, who used the knife?

Broken?"

"Old man!"

Suddenly, a misty voice suddenly appeared in their ears.

"who!"

Chen Cheng's expression changed, and he choked and pulled out his saber, followed closely by Zhang Sixi.

But in an instant, there was a crisp sound and a strong force came. Chen Cheng suddenly felt a pain in the tiger's mouth, and he couldn't control it, and he immediately let go of the knife in his hand.

Chen Cheng's expression changed, he quickly took two steps back and shouted: "Who is it, come out!"

The surroundings returned to calm, and there was no human figure anywhere.

After a while, Zhang Sixi returned the knife to its sheath, stepped forward to pick up Chen Cheng's knife, handed it over, and said, "Look!"

Chen Cheng took the knife and was shocked. The knife made of fine steel was actually broken. There was a little powder at the break, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be broken stones.

In other words, the mysterious man could easily break his own knife with just one stone.

Zhang Sixi thought thoughtfully and said: "Is that person just now Xiaoyaozi? It seems that he must have taken action in time and broke the knife. The knife moved half an inch, allowing Zhao Yuan to save his life."

Inside the prison, the Bloody Eagle King is imprisoned in an iron cage on the left hand side of the door. Xiaoyaozi is on the right side of the door. When Zhao Yuan fell, his face was facing the door. When the invading Japanese stabbed Zhao Yuan, Xiaoyaozi immediately

He took action and interrupted the opponent's knife, but it was still a little slow. The knife had already penetrated Zhao Yuan's body. However, it was because of Xiaoyaozi's blow that the opponent's knife was deflected by half an inch and Zhao Yuan was saved.

One life.
