Gongsun Yuxia's eyes lit up and she continued, ”After I almost destroyed the Kongtong Sect, he still wouldn't let me see Lu Li. It was only yesterday when I threatened to kill him that he took me to the prison. And now, Lu Li.”
Gongsun Yu Xia could not continue and burst into tears.
Ye Mo could tell that Lu Li must have been tortured inhumanly. He couldn't help but worry about Liu Yiyi. He said, ”Are you sure that Liu Yiyi is also locked in that cell?”
Gongsun Yuxia nodded: ”That secret cell is where our Gongsun family will escort all the criminals. After I brought Miss Liu back, I was directly ordered by him to be escorted to the secret prison. ”
”Where's the secret cell, we'll go right now.” Ye Yihan thought about how long he had been unconscious and how long it had been since Gongsun Yuxia had caught Liu Yiyi. He was afraid that if he left a little later, Liu Yiyi would be tortured and hurt a little more.
Gongsun Yuxia looked at Ye Mo Han in disbelief and asked: ”You don't doubt that what I said was true?”
”Even if it's fake, I still want to give it a try.” Ye Mo Han had to give it a try because he knew that as long as Liu Yi Yi was in Gongsun Chun Qiu's hands, Ye Mo Han would become a puppet. As long as it was a normal person, they wouldn't want to be a puppet.
Everyone wished to control their own fate, but how many people in this world could control theirs?
Exiting the room, it was a long corridor. The murals on the walls were carved with ceremonies and customs of the Zhou Dynasty. Gongsun Yuxia quietly explained that the Gongsun family for generations to respect the Zhouli, and Confucius for the Gongsun family. Ye Chun Han thought it was funny. Gongsun Chun Qiu boasted of being the most important person in the world in terms of etiquette, but he did some shady things behind his back. The contrast between the two was really regrettable.
The entire corridor was about three miles long, but it was empty, which surprised even Ye Wen. Gongsun Yuxia explained: ”This is the backyard, originally my mother's place, without my brother's order, no one else can come in. However, my brother will train here during his free time, so we have to be careful. ”
”Where is the secret cell?” Ye Mo Han was very concerned about this.
”The intersection of the backyard and the front yard. The entrance is in the front yard. There are heavy soldiers guarding the door. ” ”Gongsun Yuxia was afraid that Ye Wen would retreat and say something else.” But don't worry, I can bring you in, but we'll have to rely on ourselves to get out. ”
The back gate of the Gongsun family was red in color and round in shape. Outside the courtyard gate was a long and long tunnel. After passing through the tunnel, one would find the secret dungeon that Gongsun Chun Qiu had used to imprison people. Before they could leave the corridor, they met two men in black clothing. When the two men saw Gongsun Yu Xia, they stood to the side and waited for Ye Mo Han and Gongsun Yuxia to walk far away before moving forward again.
Within a mile of the passage, there was a long square house. The house looked like it was made of a piece of black iron. Ye Wen could only see the door, but not the window. This long room was obviously an iron prison built specially for this purpose.
”Is this dungeon made of steel?” Ye Mo Han couldn't help but ask.
”My grandpa spent more than twenty years collecting the toughest stones in the world and then asked tens of thousands of blacksmiths to pour the iron juice on them.” Gongsun Yuxia's words were filled with pride. Ye Wen Han sighed and shook his head. He had no idea that her lover was still locked in this sturdy cell.
At the entrance of the prison, a row of eight people looked at Ye Mo Han warily. Their hands couldn't help but touch the swords and sabers on their bodies.
Gongsun Yu said in a clear voice: ”I am here to see Lu Li. This is Young Master Ye Mo Han. He is here with my brother's permission. Open the gate.”
The eight of them looked at each other, not daring to disobey. Two of them took out a key from their clothes and inserted it into the iron door of the secret dungeon. With a 'kacha' sound, the iron gate of the secret dungeon was slowly pushed open. The iron gate was three feet thick, which showed how much the Gongsun family valued this secret dungeon.
As soon as Ye Wen stepped through the door, he felt a wave of moisture rush to his face. The light inside the cell wasn't good so it was completely illuminated by the torches on both sides of the wall. The long rooms were divided into countless small cells, so they couldn't meet each other. Each cell had a small door, allowing only one person to pass through. Usually, the prisoners' food was passed through a small hole by the door. Above each cell door hung a red sign. On it were the names of the prisoners in black and white.
There was a small room on the left after he entered the cell door. There were two people inside, and they were the ones who possessed the keys to each cell and usually brought food to the prisoners. The two of them saw Gongsun Yuxia and didn't dare to say more. They walked behind her on their own. Gongsun Yu Xia walked forward familiarly with Ye Mo Han following behind her. At the back, there were two people carrying many cell keys. With every step they took, the keys on their waists jingled non-stop.
After walking for a short while, Gongsun Yuxia suddenly stopped and said with a stern voice to the two people behind her, ”Open it.”
Ye Mo looked up at the sign and saw the words' Lu Li 'on it. Perhaps it was because it had been for a long time, but the words were mottled.
One of them quickly found the key to the cell door and opened it. Ye Chanhan saw Lu Li, the man who Gongsun Yuxia had described as the most charming of them all – his eyes had been blinded and he was cowering in a corner. Both his legs were broken, and the old blood on his robe had dried and congealed.
”Lu Lang.” Gongsun Yuxia's tone was intimate, and Ye Wen could not bear to look anymore. He turned his head away. Gongsun Yuxia continued: ”Don't be afraid, Lu Lang. I'm Xiao Yu. Today, I'm here to take you away.”
”Xiao Yu.” ”If I can't tell his handsome appearance from Lu Li's face, then I can tell from his voice that he must be a gentle and affectionate man.” These days, you came to see me every day. The years I waited for you were finally worth it. ”
Ye Mo's heart sank. Obviously, Lu Li didn't want to leave with Gongsun Yuxia. Lu Li continued, ”I am a cripple now. Your brother is right. Right now, I can only implicate you.”
Lu Li wanted to continue, but Gongsun Yuxia cut him off and said, ”Don't mention him. If it wasn't for him, you wouldn't be like this. We wouldn't be like this as well.”
The two people with the keys knew that Gongsun Yuxia was going to take Lu Li. They gave her a wink and walked towards the exit. Ye Mo Han's body flickered, and he appeared in front of the two of them. With both palms extended outwards, the two of them fainted before they could even make a sound. Ye Mo Han bent down to remove the keys from their bodies, and then turned to Gongsun Yu Xia: ”We don't have much time, we'll take him with us.”
Gongsun Yuxia then recovered her wits and said to Lu Li in a soft voice, ”I must take you somewhere that no one knows us. We will grow old together.”
Ignoring Lu Li's resistance and struggle, Gongsun Yuxia carried Lu Li on her back, walked up to Ye Wen and pointed inside, saying, ”Lady Liu is in the innermost cell.”
