Chapter 1408 – Empty the Prison! (1/2)
Edited by RED
Lin Feng and Lu Zhan entered the dark and humid dungeon together. On both sides of the corridor the evilest people were imprisoned, but their strength was not low. All of them were Holy Godly Ancestors.
There was no one in Cell No. 1, which he had stayed in yesterday. There were prisoners in the remaining ten cells.
These prisoners were also curious, standing in front of the iron windows and staring at Lin Feng. It felt like a dream. How could the No.1 prisoner, who had been imprisoned for ten days, stand with the Minister of Punishment right now?
“Hey, interesting! Hey, man, didn’t you escape yesterday? What was the matter? You got caught by the Minister of Punishment?” a dirty young man grinned and joked. There was no formality at all. After all, the prisoners here had gone through a lot and knew that they could not get out forever.
The guard ran in from the back. Seeing the prisoner was making fun of Lin Feng, his face changed and scolded the prisoner, “Shut up, this is our Minister of Punishment!”
Suddenly, there was no sound in the hall. All the prisoners looked at Lin Feng in disbelief.
“Wow, prisoner to officer? Interesting!”
“Do you want to get out?” Lin Feng didn’t pay attention to these prisoners’ teasing. He had spent nearly ten days here. He was also one of these people. He knew their thoughts very well, and they all wanted to get out, without exception.
When Lin Feng asked that, the prisoner fell into depression again. It was tense enough to make people’s hearts beat faster, but it was the prisoners, not Lin Feng, whose hearts were beating faster.
As time passed by, these prisoners stared at Lin Feng carefully, as if they wanted to see through his inner thoughts. However, they were disappointed. Although Lin Feng’s face was smiling, no one could see what he was thinking.
“Don’t look at me like that. I just want to tell you the truth. If you want to get out, you only need a word from me!” Lin Feng smiled, looking at a dozen prisoners in the prison.
Hearing that, these prisoners couldn’t stay calm anymore. All of them were holding the iron bars, staring at Lin Feng.
“Brother, how dare you let us out?” The strong man who had teased Lin Feng couldn’t believe it, so he asked again to make sure.
Lin Feng chuckled and didn’t answer, but Lu Zhan nodded seriously. “You should know me, right?”
“Hum, I could recognize you even if you’ve turned ashes. Ha ha!” The strong man stared scornfully at Lu Zhan, wishing he could tear Lu Zhan to pieces.
Lu Zhan touched his nose awkwardly, but still said, “I caught you, but you don’t know. It was on the orders of Dong Fang Yu Qing!”
“What? Dong Fang Yu Qing? Ha ha, don’t be kidding!” The strong man’s face changed a little, and then he refuted sarcastically. He absolutely didn’t believe that Dong Fang Yu Qing would order Lu Zhan to arrest him.
“If you don’t believe it, you can ask Lin Shang Shu,” Lu Zhan sighed. He knew that these prisoners didn’t believe him. After all, he was the one who caught them!
The strong man looked at Lin Feng. They did not believe Lin Feng’s words. First of all, Lin Feng was a prisoner. But in a flash, he somehow became the Minister of Punishment, making them curious about Lin Feng, and much more hopeful about getting out.
“Have you ever offended Dong Fang Yu Qing?” Lin Feng didn’t know whether Lu Zhan’s words were true or not, but he could be sure that if these prisoners offended Dong Fang Yu Qing, he would not let them go.
After Lin Feng asked this, the strong man’s face changed a little. His eyes were full of anger. He thought of something, and so did the other prisoners. They clenched their fists one after another. At this time, the spirit of Holy Godly Ancestors in the prison became more and more powerful and terrible.
“Dong Fang Yu Qing liked my sister and wanted her to marry him as a concubine, but I declined!” Ju Han clenched his teeth and roared. He realized the real purpose of his being put in prison. Making Ancestor Tai angry was just an excuse. It was true that he had offended Dong Fang Yu Qing.
In a cell behind Lin Feng, a thin man shouted, “I contradicted him at a grand meeting!”
“I spilled wine on his clothes by accident!”
“I looked at his woman once…”
“I passed in front of his carriage while it was moving!”
At this moment, all the prisoners realized that they had offended Dong Fang Yu Qing. They kept shouting, realizing they were not the only ones. Some prisoners had done so several times, and had not paid attention to it, but they were all remembered by Dong Fang Yu Qing!
Dong Fang Yu Qing was such a hypocrite!
Lu Zhan sneered. It turned out that these people had offended Dong Fang Yu Qing. It was no wonder that Dong Fang Yu Qing caught these people, but let go those who were truly guilty. Of those who were truly guilty, some of them had already become officials!
Lin Feng’s approach was the same as that of Dong Fang Yu Qing. He has won people’s hearts and benefited people. However, all the people he rescued were innocent people who were willing to kill or hated Dong Fang Yu Qing.
“I’ll give you a chance; I’ll let you out, and then you follow me. I’ll give you official posts according to your performance. How about that?” Lin Feng smiled. He was very clear that no matter how powerful one was in the Zhen Wu Dynasty, they were eager to be an official. After all, after becoming an official, their position was nobler, and they would be respected in the Zhen Wu Dynasty.
These prisoners, who have been in prison for so many years, had a better understanding of the benefits of rights, so they were unwilling to be lonely, unwilling to be mediocre, and would surely agree.
Sure enough, when Lin Feng said this, the strong man in the cell beside him knelt on the ground directly, raised his fists heavily, and said firmly, “Lord, if you let me go, I will live and die with you together.”
“Lord, I will live and die with you together!”
“Lord, I will never leave!”
