Eternal Tranquility

Liu Qinghuan couldn't understand the changes in Nishengzhu for a while, so he could only think about it slowly. To his relief, he was not taken out of the prison for more than a month. It seemed that Yun Mengze's incident was finally over.

The prison was really boring. Although no one came to torture them, the cold void, the palm-sized cage, and the boring day after day were enough to torture them. And fortunately, the people locked up here are not low-level monks, and all of them can live without grain, so they don't have to worry about hunger in their stomachs.

Because he was unable to practice, Liu Qinghuan had a rare free time in many years, so he ignored everything and fell asleep!

He usually meditates while resting, so he hasn't had a simple sleep for a long time, but he just made up for it at this time. Of course, after nine minutes of sleep and one minute of wakefulness, with Geng Yuan and Ning He beside him, he still had to take precautions.

When he wasn't sleeping, he would chat with the two of them. It was better for Ning He to be gentle and reserved, but Geng Yuan, who had a more flamboyant temperament, made no secret of his interest in his past experiences and always talked to him.

Liu Qinghuan couldn't refuse people thousands of miles away, hiding the most important things, talking nonsense about the secret places he had experienced, the wonderful sights he had seen, etc., but they still had a good conversation.

It didn't take long before even the monks in several neighboring cages were almost familiar with it.

These cages are all shrouded in hazy yellow light, so the appearance of the people inside cannot be seen clearly, but there are as few as one or two people in one room, as many as three or five people. Some like to talk and laugh, some are quiet, and some are silent. Those who were imprisoned were so impatient that they roared and cursed.

No one knows when they will be able to get out of this hellish place. Even the Yuanying monks who have been in seclusion for hundreds of years will inevitably have moments of impatience.

Therefore, what everyone loves to talk about most is the war in Mingshan War Zone. Just the matter of Qingming occupying the Gate of Everlasting Sorrow has been discussed for more than half a month, analyzing the causes and speculations about the subsequent development, who will lead the troops and who will be in power. Calling a group of flowers, those who didn’t know thought they had seen it in person.

In addition, new people are thrown in from time to time, bringing new news, so the prison is not as closed as the outside world imagines.

"There are several barriers between the Palace of Sin and the Pass of Everlasting Sorrow. Crossing Akihabara, heading east, climbing Golden Snake Mountain, and then passing Black Rock City, it is really difficult to defeat them."

"What are you dreaming about in the Spring and Autumn Period? Do you still think that someone will come to save us? If we want to fight, we naturally have to occupy Guyuegou first, and then attack Huanxi, one of the four halls of joy, anger, sorrow and joy on Jiuyou's side. temple."

"No matter where he hits, we will definitely catch a lot of Jiuyou monks this time. Let's exchange a group of people quickly. I've really had enough of staying in this dark place!"

"Yeah yeah……"

Many people agreed, and everyone's spirits were lifted and hope was ignited in their hearts.

Liu Qinghuan listened for a while and asked in a low voice in confusion: "Will the captured monks be exchanged in the near future?"

Ning He said: "Generally speaking, after a war, there may indeed be a negotiation for the exchange of prisoners of war."

"Then...everyone here can be replaced?"

Ning He pondered for a long time and shook his head: "There are many variables here. For example, there are some people that both parties would rather lock up than release them. Some people can be released by spending a sum of spirit stones, and some people have to exchange similar identities. People with status, strength, etc. The number of people exchanged each time is not determined. It is said that both parties will make a list before the exchange. Whether they can be on this list depends on everyone's luck and background. "

He said somewhat cryptically: "There are many people in this prison..."

Liu Qinghuan understood that since he had never been registered with Qing Ming, it was naturally impossible for him to be on that list. He would probably only be able to get out when there was a large-scale exchange.

Liu Qinghuan couldn't help but worry, could he just wait and waste a long time here day after day?

But so many people are being imprisoned, and there are countless great monks who are higher than him in the form of gods and fusions. If these people can't escape, why can he escape?

Just as the Qing Mingfang monks in prison were looking forward to getting out, some were happy and some were worried, but something that no one expected was about to happen.

On this day, Liu Qinghuan was leaning on the cage with his eyes closed to rest, Geng Yuan continued to sleep soundly, and even Ning He lowered his head and dozed off. The entire empty cell was so quiet that there was no sound of human beings. Suddenly he heard a thud. Sound softly.

Liu Qinghuan didn't pay attention at first, because maybe some boring guy was banging his head on the ground, or a person in the cage suddenly started fighting. Such things had happened before.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The continuous, regular thumping sounds finally brought him back to his senses, opened his eyes, and listened carefully.

The surrounding fields were silent, and the entire empty prison seemed to be asleep.

Misheard?

Liu Qinghuan stretched out and wondered whether he should just lie down and sleep again. Then he heard the thumping sound again, and it became more obvious and more urgent than the previous light sound, as if someone was coming. War drums were beating in the distance.

He stretched his head and looked down through the cage bars.

Each cage emits a dim yellow light, like lanterns floating in the void.

"Who's playing the drums?"

Geng Yuan woke up first and jumped up from the ground. This time he woke up Ning He again: "What's the sound?"

"It came from underground." Liu Qinghuan said without looking back, "I don't know what's going on."

Just for a moment, the drum sound got a lot louder. The people in other cages were also woken up, but everyone was confused and yelled and asked other people.

"Isn't there a ferocious beast that's awakened down there? Otherwise, it sounds like a heartbeat."

"Where did the ferocious beast come from? I think it must be the great monk in the integration stage locked down below who is doing something to make such a big noise."

"Tsk, tsk, I have been locked up here for more than two hundred years, but I encountered something new today."

The noise gradually subsided, and everyone stared intently at the unfathomable abyss.

Liu Qinghuan was leaning on the cage, with a look of confusion on his face, as he heard the sound of the drum beating faster and faster, gradually becoming deafening!

His face suddenly changed, and he suddenly woke up. He took a few steps back and put a hand on his chest. He felt that his whole heart was beating, and the drum beat faster and faster, almost to the point of jumping out!

Looking at the other two people, they were in the same posture as before, leaning on the cage with confused expressions on their faces, their entire minds attracted by the sound of the drums.

Liu Qinghuan reached out and pulled the two of them off, shaking them while shouting in their ears: "Wake up, this sound is weird, don't listen to it!"

Geng Yuan and Ning He trembled, looking at him blankly at first, then showing fear on their faces, but they didn't bother to speak anymore, they just pressed their ears with their hands desperately.

Their magic power was banned. At this time, they could not even turn off their five senses. The blood was flowing wildly in their bodies. The surface of their bodies could no longer withstand the huge impact, and blood arrows shot out one after another.

Even the cage they were in began to tremble and beat with the sound of huge drums, and the yellow light shrouded outside flickered, flickering on and off like breathing.

At this time, Liu Qinghuan felt a bump under his feet, and his whole body flew upwards, hitting the top of the cage with great force!

"ah!"

After shouting twice in a row, Geng Yuan and Ning He also hit them. The three of them staggered and fell into a ball, followed by a series of spinning!
