Chapter 554 Dreamwalking

Wang Li gnawed on the chicken leg, not daring to get too close to Ji Yuan, and kept a certain distance to appreciate the calligraphy written by Ji Yuan. Although he is a storyteller, he is also a scholar. He used to think that his handwriting was actually not bad. , There are many times to talk, and there are also many times to record, but obviously it can't be compared with Mr. Ji's words at all, he is worthy of being a fairy.

Although in Wang Li's view, Mr. Ji is just writing calligraphy works, but I have heard him say before that this is actually deriving the magic method, which is called the method of Yanshu by him.

Wang Li doesn't understand such unfathomable things, but he also has his own ideas: a rather proud scholar is in trouble with a gentleman who is a fairy. I thought it was a fairy in the end...

Little by little, the plot of the story came to Wang Li's mind, and this time the protagonist was himself. Thinking of this, Wang Li became a little excited, and an uncontrollable smile naturally appeared on his face. The goose skin hanging from the corner of the mouth looks weird and evil no matter how you look at it.

In the corridor of the cell far away, the jailer who was staring at Wang Li's cell carefully shivered suddenly.

"hiss……"

The jailer looked at the surrounding cells, especially the three cells opposite Wang Li's cell. The prisoners inside were all huddled in the corner, and some of them were covered with thatch. It was obviously a little scary. After looking at it for a while, they felt a little numb. The jailer couldn't bear it any longer, and left directly to the outer hall.

After a while, the jailer returned to the outer hall, and finally felt relieved, and stretched out his hands to rub his arms to make himself a little warmer.

"Why did you come back? He ate something?"

Sitting at the table drinking wine, the cell leader saw the jailer rubbing his hands back, so he asked a question, the latter forced a smile and nodded.

"I ate it, I ate all the food and wine, but I still don't have diarrhea, but here, it's getting worse."

The jailer nodded his head to indicate Wang Li's mental problems, he hesitated and added.

"Boss, the current situation of Wang Li looks more and more creepy..."

The jailer frowned and took a sip of his wine. Of course he knew Wang Li's situation, and to be honest, he was also a little panicked.

"Boss, Wang Li's situation is too weird. I heard from the older generation that such a person can become a ghost after death..."

"hiss……"

The prison chief also trembled, reached out to pick up the flagon and poured some into the empty bowl beside him.

"Come on, you also drink some wine to suppress the shock."

"Why!"

...

Over the past two months, Wang Li's "madness" has truly normalized, and no jailer has come here to listen to books, and it has been a few days since he sent that kind of food box over, let alone adding food to the prison's meals.

On this day, Ji Yuan closed his pen, and a pile of rice paper on the table was covered with tiny characters, either overlapping or spreading out. Although the pages were not connected, there was a feeling that all the characters were connected as one, and they echoed faintly. Clouds and smoke are implicated between words.

Of course, Wang Li couldn't see these words. He just thought Mr. Ji's words were beautiful and harmonious, but after reading them for a long time, he somehow felt sleepy.

"Uh, Mr. Ji, have you finished writing?"

Ji Yuan put the Langhao pen on the pen holder, moved his hands and feet, looked at the words on the paper on the low table, and nodded with a smile.

"Well, the writing is almost done, and I just need to work on it. I can make this "Dream Tour", thanks for your help."

"I?"

Wang Li pointed at his nose and smiled awkwardly.

"Mr. Ji, don't make fun of me. How can I teach you how to practice calligraphy? It's true that you are eating, drinking and messing around..."

Speaking of this, Wang Li looked outside and saw that there was no jailer coming at the end of the aisle in this cell. When he turned his gaze, he found that the prisoner in the opposite cell shrank back to a corner immediately after making contact with his eyes.

"Mr. Ji, they haven't delivered food and drinks for a while, and Ms. Zhang doesn't know when she will come..."

Ji Yuan shook his head and smiled.

"Why, are you still expecting them to deliver?"

Wang Li smiled a little embarrassedly, and replied truthfully.

"Here, sir, are you here? They can't poison me. Although the food and drinks are not as good as Ms. Zhang's, they are much better than prison meals..."

Speaking of this, Wang Li seemed to have finally realized something, and said vigilantly.

"Sir, do you think they gave up drugging? They plan to use other methods to deal with me, such as stabbing me while I'm asleep? It won't be long before I get out of prison!"

"The soldiers will block the water and cover you with earth. What are you afraid of? Because of the face of the Yin family, they will never dare to attack you openly. Just stay at ease. Maybe they think you don't need to kill you now."

Wang Li scratched his head.

"That is to say, for a small person like me, the elder of the Xiao family can just be a fart."

Just as he was saying that, there were footsteps coming from the end of the corridor, and soon the cell boss and the jailer came to Wang Li's cell. Although Wang Li had a strategizing spirit when he was telling the story, he was still like an ordinary scholar under normal circumstances. Wang Li secretly looked at Ji Yuan by his side several times, hoping to see how the master would react.

Wang Li's behavior that he thought was concealed was obvious to the cell boss and the jailer, but it was even more creepy. During this period of time, it is not that no jailer has thought about whether Wang Li's cell is haunted. Now every jailer wears amulets.

"Hey, Wang Li, your sentence is up, you can go!"

"ah?"

Wang Li subconsciously looked at Ji Yuan, and then at the jailer.

"No, you two bad guys, I should be at least half a month away, right?"

"Hey! You storyteller, don't you think you haven't been in prison long enough? You've misremembered the date!"

"Did I remember wrong?"

Wang Li subconsciously glanced at Ji Yuan again, but the latter didn't say anything.

"Yeah, my memory is wrong, you can get out of prison."

While Ji Yuan sneered, he nodded to Wang Li, who quickly responded to the jailer.

"Oh oh oh, I know, I know, I uh..."

Wang Li glanced at the prison, there was nothing to clean up, but Mr. Ji had already taken away all the four treasures of the study on the low table with a wave of his sleeve.

"Let's go!"

After Wang Li said this, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk out of the cell, and then saw several other jailers opening the doors of several cells next to him.

"Come out, come out, you two can get out of prison!"

"Come out, your sentence is over!"

Seeing that the prisoners in four or five cells around him were being released, Wang Li heaved a sigh of relief. It should be no problem for everyone to be released together.

"Uh, my fellow servants, is this the Holy Majesty's amnesty to the world or is there some other decree of good news?"

Wang Li asked the prison boss flatteringly, and the latter looked at him.

"Yo, you are indeed a scholar, you can think clearly!"

Wang Li was completely relaxed now, and the inmates who came out together were also very happy, but after they came out, they subconsciously stayed away from Wang Li, even some jailers beside him. Only Ji Yuan looked at everyone with a half-smile.

The location of these prisoners seems to be relatively remote. In fact, it is not far from the entrance of the prison. It is not considered the depths of the dungeon. They just came out all the way, but found that there were no prisoners in the cells along the way. I don’t know if they were transferred to other cells or already. All released.

When a group of released prisoners arrived at the open area of ​​the lobby outside, they found several other guards standing there. When they saw them coming out, they suddenly shouted in surprise.

"A prisoner has escaped!"

"Close the outer door, close the outer door, a prisoner escapes!"

"Zheng!"

"Zheng!"

"Zheng!"

...

One by one the jailers drew their swords out of their sheaths instantly, leaving Wang Li and the other prisoners dumbfounded.

"My lord! I am wronged!"

"Master, Lord! We didn't escape from prison!"

"These poor masters said that we can..."

Some jailers turned their heads, only to find that including the few jailers who sent them out, all the guards around had weapons in their hands, and their blades were dangling.

"You guys are going to die!?"

"Prisoners escaped and dared to resist, take them all!"

Said to take it down, but those ferocious-looking jailers directly swung their knives and slashed at it without hesitation.

"puff……"

"puff……"

"puff……"

"oops……"

"ah……"

The light of the knife flickered a few times, and there were screams. At this moment, the cell leader also felt a tearing pain in his back, and when he turned his head, the jailer cut him with a knife.

"Stop! Stop everything!"

The head of the prison shouted in pain, causing all the guards to stop. Many of them had blood on their knives, but their faces revealed horror. Everyone looked left and right and then looked at each other.

There were no prisoners, no sign of Wang Li, only them jailers who were almost all wounded, and even one of them fell to the ground and was seriously injured.

"What are we... doing?"

"Wang, where is Wang Li?"

After a long time, except for the seriously injured one who was bandaged and lying on the side, all the guards stayed in the front hall as if they had seen a ghost after a simple bandage. All of them were pale, not only because of excessive blood loss, but also because of scares. of. Because Wang Li and the prisoners were all staying in the prison, the chains were not opened, but they, the jailers, clearly remembered what happened just now.

"Boss...we won't go to hell, will we?"

The prison leader took a deep breath, but couldn't refute.

"Then Wang Li, do you still want to kill him?"

The corner of the cell's mouth twitched, and he looked at the subordinate who was interrogating.

"Kill? Are you going to kill?"

Money is of course a good thing, and this matter may also bring some convenience in the future, but that has to be borne!

...

Half a month later, Ji Yuan and Wang Li left the prison of Changyang Mansion together after one or two guards sent them off carefully, while Zhang Rui was already waiting outside with a smile on his face.
