A small casual cultivator!
Chapter 22 Prison Disaster
Inside a strict prison.
A middle-aged man was sitting in a small room, perhaps because he was too bored and felt a little sleepy.
"Dong dong dong."
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Brother Huang, open the door, there's work to do." someone urged.
After hearing the sound, the man got up impatiently and opened the door.
There were two prison officers outside, holding a young boy.
"Bring it in."
The man stared at the boy and then stepped aside.
The two men carried the man inside.
"This boy doesn't look like he has done anything wrong. How did he get in?" he asked.
One of them clapped his hands and said, "I heard someone was killed in the city."
"Murder? Is that true? Could it be a scapegoat?" The man was a little unconvinced.
"I don't believe it either, but it's true. Someone killed a Taoist partner on the street at night. It seemed that he wanted to kill people and steal treasures." said another person.
"He is so vicious at such a young age. What will he be like when he grows up?" The man's eyes showed shock.
"Alright Huang, we're leaving first. Just change his clothes and throw him into cell number 14."
After chatting for a while, the two left.
Next, the man took a prisoner uniform from the rack, walked towards the young man, and then pulled his clothes off roughly.
"Huh? What is this?"
Suddenly, he felt something in his clothes and his eyes became strange.
"Where am I?"
In the dim light, Lu Luan felt as if his head was about to explode, and pain emanated from his entire body.
Finally, he opened his eyes with difficulty and looked around, only to find himself locked in a dark cell.
"I didn't expect this guy to have a storage bag on him. He's really sneaky, but it's a good deal for me."
Suddenly, he saw a middle-aged guard sitting next to him, rummaging through his clothes.
"what are you doing?"
Lu Luan woke up suddenly because there was the Zhengyang Order and some spiritual herbs in the storage bag.
"You woke up?"
Hearing the sound, the man was a little surprised, and then he punched him on the head without any hesitation, knocking him down, cursing: "Stop yelling, you killed someone, you will die, can't you let me make a little money?"
Lu Luan suddenly felt his head spinning, and then he lost consciousness.
"I didn't expect there were still a few spiritual herbs. Not bad, not bad. It seems that they were all obtained by this kid from killing people and stealing treasures. This ill-gotten gains belong to me."
The man opened the storage bag, looked inside for a few seconds, and then put it into his clothes with a smile.
……
"My head... hurts."
When Lu Luan opened his eyes again, everything was completely grey. After a while, his vision gradually became clear and he found that he was now in a cell. His dantian was also sealed and he had no power to resist.
"It looks like this time it's over."
Recalling that he was arrested for murder in the city, his face turned slightly pale and his eyes were a little dazed.
"The clothes I'm wearing?"
Soon, he noticed that all his clothes had been changed.
"Storage bag, Zhengyang Order!"
The next moment, he recalled that the storage bag seemed to have been stolen in a dim house.
"What should I do?"
Lu Luan was anxiously thinking of a solution.
"Whoosh."
At this time, he heard some faint sounds beside his ears, but he didn't pay any attention to them.
In the cage next to him was an old man with disheveled hair and a dirty face. When he saw Lu Luan wake up, he crawled over to the side and said, "The man who sent you here said that you robbed a casual cultivator, and when he refused to obey you killed his Taoist partner. What a pity. If you kill someone and are in here, and there is no one at home, you will never be able to get out in this lifetime."
Lu Luan heard it, but ignored him.
The prisoner not far away looked at him with contempt and said, "He looks like a scholar, but I didn't expect him to be so vicious."
"That's right. Such a person will turn to the devil sooner or later. I think the City Lord's Mansion will most likely execute him directly as a warning to the public."
There was discussion all around.
Lu Luan was too lazy to pay attention to them and just squatted in the corner.
Looking at the spider web in the corner, his eyes became dazed, and he thought absentmindedly, "Is this really how I'm going to die?"
"The Zhengyang Order is in that storage bag. Should I take action? They shouldn't dare to kill me with that thing." He thought.
But he quickly shook his head and said, "No, if that thing is exposed, they will definitely kill me immediately. Let's wait and see how they deal with me. If they really want to kill me, I'll just tell them and give it a try."
The pros and cons of this are that for him, the Zhengyang Order is simply a death warrant.
"Hey, kid."
The old man in the cage next to him called him softly.
"Little boy, are you the scapegoat of those disciples from aristocratic families? I don't think you would kill anyone." The old man said again.
Lu Luan said softly, "I didn't really want to kill anyone, I just let it go because I was careless."
"Old man, if someone is caught killing someone in the city and it wasn't intentional, what punishment will he receive?" he asked.
The old man pondered and said, "Based on my experience of being in prison for more than ten years, if it were an ordinary cultivator, the City Lord's Mansion would probably give him a severe punishment in order to establish his prestige, even execution."
"You are at the third level of Qi Refining and have good talent. Do you have anyone at home? Although murder is a capital crime, it should be no problem to save your life by making some arrangements like I did." The old man comforted him.
Lu Luan stopped talking. He did have a master before, but the master had passed away.
Seeing this, the old man understood and shook his head regretfully.
"Why did you come in?" Lu Luan asked after a while.
The old man stroked his messy hair and said calmly, "Just like you, I killed someone. It should be a capital crime, but after my son gave me some spiritual stones as a tribute, he said I killed someone accidentally, and I was imprisoned for more than 20 years and that was it."
"Someone will come to ask you about this soon. When the time comes, just insist that you were resisting and committing manslaughter. Be humble. Got it?" the old man warned.
"Yeah." Lu Luan nodded.
Then I started chatting with the old man.
Half an hour later.
Suddenly, the noisy prison cell became quiet. At the door, a middle-aged man in a green robe came over with a few people.
Finally, he stood in front of Lu Luan and took a look, "You were the one who killed someone in the city last night?"
Lu Luan quickly explained: "Sir, I didn't mean to do that. They were the ones who robbed me first, and I accidentally killed them when I resisted."
He tried hard to defend himself.
"is it?"
The man continued, "What's your name?"
"Lu Luan."
"Where do you live? You have violated the city's rules, so I have to contact your family to help you deal with the consequences."
Lu Luan replied in a low voice: "I... I came from outside the city and I have no family."
"Do you know anyone in the city?" the man asked again.
Lu Luan shook his head slightly.
The man put his hands behind his back and said contemptuously, "I don't know anyone, so he must be a casual cultivator."
"Sir, I really didn't mean it. They were robbing me."
The man smiled coldly, "A person who has just entered the third level of Qi Refining and a person who has just entered the second level of Qi Refining would come to rob you who is at the peak of the third level?"
"I……"
"Stop talking. We don't care if you kill people outside the city, but if you kill people in the city, that's breaking the rules. Killing someone should be compensated with your life."
Lu Luan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by that man.
Seeing his distraught expression, the man changed the subject and said, "But considering that you are a first-time offender and you are young and ignorant, it is possible that I cannot show some leniency and spare your life."
Hearing that he could still survive, Lu Luan's eyes lit up again.
