Buddhist Miracle Doctor: The Dark Prince, Can't Get Rid of Him
Chapter 61: Completely Devastated
Along the way, Mu Yingbao guessed where he would be sent.
There is no way a remote mountain villa or village could be a prison. If that were the case, there would be no need to go through all this trouble. There are many prisons in the capital, big and small, so why bother to go to a faraway place?
But I never expected it to be such a place.
The tall towers and city walls are all made of granite. How high are they? Let me put it this way, from this position, you can't see the other buildings inside at all.
What's more, what's very strange is that in broad daylight, the bronze city gate was tightly closed.
On the tall city walls, you could only see the red tassels on the tips of the helmets worn by the soldiers.
Outside the city gate, there stood a dozen fully armed soldiers wearing armor, and their outfits looked even more high-end than those who escorted her here.
I don’t know if they were specially selected or because they have been standing here for many years, but no matter whether they have long or round faces, they all look ferocious.
Just watching this, Mu Yingbao felt a lump in his throat.
What kind of place is this? Why does it look even more exaggerated than the places where criminals are held in foreign blockbusters?

Really, it was built with a one-meter square piece of granite. Mu Yingbao felt that it would be useless even if he used a cannon to attack it. Just looking at the appearance, it gave people the feeling that it was very solid and strong.
If you get locked in, there's no way to escape! Unless you grow wings!
"Director Rong, we have delivered the person as ordered. Please write a signature." The general who escorted Mu Yingbao stepped forward and said to someone in front of the city gate.
The man still had a stern face. He looked in Mu Yingbao's direction, nodded, turned around and walked into the city gate. He quickly came out and handed over a piece of paper.
The escorting general took a look at it, rolled it up, stuffed it into a small bamboo tube on his body and sealed it, then waved to his men, mounted his horse and left without even taking a break.
When Mu Yingbao heard the noise and turned around, she saw a group of people leaving, several bags thrown on the ground, and a child with a small bag on his back and a broken jar in his arms, who was also stunned.
"Mu Yingbao? Xue Yunhui?"
A fierce voice sounded, and Mu Yingbao and Hui Ge, one big and one small, immediately turned their heads to look towards the source of the voice.
"No matter what your previous identities were, now that you are in Youcheng you must abide by the rules of Youcheng. Hurry up and take your things into the city." The person who spoke was Rong Changfa, the director of Youcheng's outer guard who had just handed over to the escort officer.
Enter the city? What on earth is Youcheng? Is it really not a prison? The two of them, the big and the small, were a little confused, but they still obediently picked up Bao Pei from the ground, even with the straps, and followed the man towards the city gate.
So what if I'm not obedient? Can I run? Can I outrun these soldiers?
The main city gate was not opened, but a small gate on the side was opened.
Director Na Rong did not go in, but spoke to a man in his fifties inside and let Mu Yingbao and the other two go in.
As he walked in, Mu Yingbao looked at the small door. Wow, it was three inches thick. Hearing the sound of the door closing, he could tell that the door was solid. Moreover, there were three such small doors in the approximately five-meter-long city gate.
Every time they passed through a door, someone would immediately lock it behind them. What was even more exaggerated was that there were six wrist-thick bolts in a row above and below, and each bolt had a copper lock as big as a fist.
There is a dedicated person to operate each door, and there is also a person responsible for opening each copper lock. In other words, there are six locks on a door held by six people respectively. If you want to open a door, you have to ask six people to take out six keys.
This means that if you want to escape from there, you have to deal with three doors and eighteen people and get eighteen keys!
Seeing this, Mu Yingbao's heart sank and he completely gave up the idea of finding a chance to escape from here. This would definitely not work!
"I am the household manager of Youcheng. I feel sorry for you and your son, so I would like to give you a piece of advice. Be honest and don't think about escaping. Youcheng was built a hundred years ago, and no one has ever escaped.
Digging a tunnel? The walls below the city wall are made of iron and steel, so you and your son don’t have to waste your energy. “The old man saw Mu Yingbao looking at the ground at the base of the city wall, and said this expressionlessly without saying another word.
Mu Yingbao thought, this old man can read minds? How did he know I wanted to dig a tunnel?
However, before he had time to feel discouraged, he was shocked by the scene before him.
The city is actually a city. What does that mean?
That is, although it looks like a solid castle from the outside, I didn’t expect that the inside is exactly the same as an ordinary town.
There are shops lining both sides of the street, people setting up stalls, selling firewood on their shoulders, making candy figures... The pedestrians on the street look no different from ordinary people.
When people on the street saw Mu Yingbao and her daughter being led by the household manager, although they could see that they were very curious, they just glanced at them and then looked away.
Even if it was just a brief glance, Mu Yingbao knew that they knew how to shoot back.

The household manager led us along the main street for a distance, then turned into an alley, walked uphill for a distance, and finally stopped in front of a fenced yard.
"This is where you will live, go in. By the way, these are the Youcheng coins you need to enter the city. They are given per person, 200 coins per person, and this is only once." After the household manager finished speaking, he took off a small cloth bag and threw it at Mu Yingbao's feet.
"Uncle Housekeeper, if I understand correctly, this Youcheng coin is used in this city?" Mu Yingbao asked tentatively, looking at a string of gourd-shaped copper pieces leaking out of the cloth bag at his feet.
Although there are very few people who were pardoned from Youcheng, they do exist, so it is not surprising that people outside know about Youcheng's affairs.
"Well, what does it mean only once? It means it will be given out only this once, but what about after it's used up? How will you live? Can't silver, copper coins, silver notes and so on be used here?" Mu Yingbao continued to ask.
Just now, when she saw the prosperity of the street, she felt a little secretly happy. She had tens of thousands of taels of silver notes, so she didn't have to live a hard life here.
"You understand it correctly. Once you use up all these, you will have to find a way to make money to support yourself. As for silver bills, copper coins, and silver, they are not allowed to be used here and are worthless. Copper coins and silver can be taken to jewelry shops to be made into jewelry to wear.
As for the banknotes, no matter how big the denomination is, they are just waste paper. If you think there is still hope of leaving here, just keep them. "After the household manager finished speaking, he ignored Mu Yingbao and turned around and left with his hands behind his back.
Oh my god, what kind of rule is this? Who came up with this? What the hell! She has tens of thousands of assets, but now all her belongings are only 400 coins?
Mu Yingbao wanted to vomit blood. She thought she had made a good deal, but in the end, the dowry she worked so hard to get was sealed in the Xue family and she couldn't take it out.
The tens of thousands of taels of silver notes I brought with me are now just a pile of waste paper? I've been busy all day and have become a pauper!
If my experience were written into a novel, the readers would definitely follow Yu Jian. How could there be such a tragic heroine?
If what happened before was her own fault, then what about now? She had a chance to escape before coming in, but because of her impatience, she put herself in a dead end! She didn't have freedom in the Xue Mansion, but at least someone took care of her food and drink and she didn't have to spend money.

Now, my freedom is gone and I have to earn money to live!
Anxious, angry, and having been on the road for two days, Mu Yingbao, who had not eaten anything, suddenly fell to the ground...
