Start as a Silver Dragon and travel to Equestria

In a forgotten corner of Equestria, there stands a unique prison. This is not the hopeless Tartarus, but a cold and serious cage.

, specially set up for those criminals who committed less serious crimes. The existence of this prison seemed to maintain the order and discipline of the entire Equestria, revealing an inviolable majesty.

The prison's outer wall is no longer a shining magic crystal, but a solid cold-toned stone. Each stone seems to have been baptized by the years and has become cold and heavy. The towering stone wall is like an insurmountable barrier, separating the inside and outside of the prison. Whenever night falls, the moonlight shines on the cold and hard stone wall, casting a mottled shadow, which is chilling.

The cell design also reflects seriousness and order. The magic barrier has been replaced with solid iron bars, each of which has been carefully crafted and is unbreakable. The space in the cell is small, with only a simple stone bed and a worn-out wooden table, which brings a heavy sense of oppression to the prisoners.

The atmosphere here is no longer relaxed and cheerful, but full of solemnity and silence. The prisoners are strictly managed and their daily activities are strictly restricted. They no longer have the opportunity to plant joy in the garden, but are arranged to undergo physical and disciplinary training in the hope of reforming themselves.

There is also a special punishment room in the prison, which is used to punish prisoners who violate the rules. The furnishings in the punishment room are simple and cold, with only a hard stone table and an iron chair fixed to the ground. Whenever a prisoner is brought into the punishment room, the atmosphere of the entire space becomes more depressing, as if even the air has solidified.

At this moment, Shining Chi Jing was standing at the door, his eyes were cold and puzzled. He couldn't understand why these two fraudsters who were clearly sentenced to ten years in prison were suddenly given a reduced sentence by Teacher Luo Shu. But he knew that Teacher Luo Shu must have a far-reaching purpose in doing this. As a student of Luo Shu, he could only choose to obey.

"I never thought that Teacher Luo Shu would get you two damned fraudsters out. Your sentences are over." There was a hint of confusion in the voice of Shining Chi Jing, and his eyes fell on the two prisoners who had just walked out of the cell. They lowered their heads, not daring to look at him, as if they felt an invisible pressure under his gaze. They were two bearded and slick brothers. When they heard the words "commutation of sentence and freedom", their eyes instantly flashed with joy.

However, under Luo Shu's transformation, this prison has long been different from the past. Many interesting projects have been cancelled and replaced by some heavy and boring work. The two brothers, Slippery Tongue, spend their days here either digging stones or making some strange metal parts.

The delicious meals were replaced with dry hay, dry bread, and a little protein mixed with vitamin blocks to sustain life. These difficult days were extremely painful for them.

Now, the days of suffering are finally over. The two brothers, Slippery Tongue, don't plan to continue cheating, because the price is far beyond their imagination. The two brothers hugged each other tightly and cried bitterly outside the prison door, while thanking Luo Shu for the commutation of sentence that was inexplicable but finally allowed them to regain their freedom.

Then, they hugged the twinkling red crystal who was a head shorter than them, and cried again, thanking him for telling them the good news. But the twinkling red crystal pushed away the two adults who were hugging him and crying with a look of disgust, because Teacher Luo Shu also arranged words that the twinkling red crystal could not understand...

In the letter that Luo Shu wrote to Shan Ying Chi Jing, he wrote: Let them start the fraud again.

And he even specifically pointed out the scam of selling magic water, and even listed the formula, the scam location, and the scam characters?! This shocked Shining Chijing when he saw it. It seemed like he was making some grand plan? ? ?

......

"You two, follow closely." Shining Red Crystal did not look back. His voice was childish and powerful, as if it had a magical power that could make people feel at ease.

The gleaming red body is wearing the original combat uniform prototyped by the research institute. This combat uniform is mainly black in color and is made of composite materials enchanted and formed in one piece. The modular armor is easy to replace and has multiple protective capabilities such as bulletproof, stab-proof and fireproof. The soft and breathable lining inside and the adjustable elastic band design ensure comfort for long-term combat.

It can be said that it is a simple test work of the scientists in the institute that combines the advantages of most prototype armors, because there is no magic amplification, only some magic resistance and high physical resistance...

"Um...Okay, what do you want us to do?"

"Back to the scam..."

"...Hahahaha...brother...then let's just keep it locked up." The Slippery Tongue was stunned when he heard this. The flattering expression on his face froze instantly. Looking at the back of the Shining Red Crystal walking in front of him, they looked at each other awkwardly, smiled awkwardly and stepped back.

"Yeah, brother, let's continue to be locked up, hahahaha..." The smooth-talking man walked towards the cell behind.

"As long as you complete this task perfectly, you two will have several pardons, only for the crime of fraud..." The childish words of the shining red crystal were like the sound of heaven to the smooth-talking man.

"Celestia! I promise to complete this mission, so...what is this scam mission?" The smooth-talking man immediately became flattering and quickly followed the shimmering red crystal who was about to walk out of the prison gate. The smile on his face seemed to be overflowing.

Shining Red Crystal handed the letter with instructions to the two smooth-talking guys, and soon her smile was replaced by doubt...

"No... this... this is so cruel that they even cheated their own friends? Or cheated an old man?" Although the smooth-talking people had done all kinds of frauds before, now under the "harmonious" education in prison, their moral concepts have been strengthened a little, and they don't understand the above-mentioned use of the immortal water to trick an old man into doing dangerous high-altitude diving...

......

"Let's go swimming together, Granny." Apple Bloom was playing with Mattos and Applejack in a small lake. Then Apple Bloom invited Granny Smith, who was sunbathing on a lounge chair by the lake, to go in the water and play with her.

"Oh...thank you dear, but I can't bring myself to get near deep water where I can swim."

"Why?" Apple Bloom didn't understand Granny Smith's words.

"Well... I wasn't always like this. I used to be the best water pony... I was very popular back then... But... ever since..."

Granny Smith recalled a dangerous act when she was young, jumping from a height of six floors, and the "pool" below... rather than a pool, it was actually just a small plate. No matter how you think about it, this is tantamount to suicide and will hurt yourself... But Granny Smith still did it... Then the back of her body was seriously injured...

"After that... I was afraid of water for several years. When I thought of water, I felt pain all over my body..." Granny Smith said as she got off the applewood lounge chair... but she stepped into a small pond next to the beach...

"Besides...my old arms and legs can't paddle anymore...Ahhh!! Ah!" Granny Smith almost slipped after stepping into the pond...Apple Bloom was worried and said to Applejack with some fear.

"I don't want to be afraid of swimming... Do you think I will be afraid of water in the future?"

Applejack could only shake her head...

......

"So... the price for failing the mission is to be thrown into Tartarus?!!!" Slippery Tongue suddenly felt that it was better to stay in prison, anyway, he didn't have to face the dangers of the outside world...

"Yes, so you have no choice. Hurry up and go to the tent set up near Pony Valley. I have arranged everything. That place has also made some efforts to ensure that everything can go according to the script set by Teacher Luoshu... You two just need to recite the lines carefully... If you are stage fright... you should know the consequences." Flashing Red Crystal said coldly to Slippery Tongue and gestured to the equipment on his waist.

Although I didn't know what it was, the cold light flashing showed that it was quite dangerous... After stuttering and agreeing to the task, I almost stretched my neck two miles before swallowing a mouthful of saliva...

"Okay... okay... of course... of course no problem, everything... will be left to us two brothers..."

Now, all Slippery needs to do is find an actor who can act like them and team up to trick these ponies...

......

The Apple family is walking along a road leading to Ponyville, with Mythos pulling most of the equipment for the beach trip, while Apple Bloom and Applejack are talking to Granny Smith about the previous topic.

"Oh, Granny Smith, I didn't know you had such an amazing experience."

"I was the best diver in Ponyville, and the first famous diving pony in the Apple family... But now... I'm old... Those dangerous high-altitude sports should be left to those young and strong guys. Besides... Little Apple, I think diving is too dangerous for you. I never said that high-altitude diving is a wise choice. It is a very dangerous sport and prone to accidents!"

Granny Smith seemed to be still haunted by the failure of the previous diving experience. She was really badly injured that time. She looked worried and serious and told Apple Lili that she couldn't train in high-altitude diving because it was a very dangerous and stupid sport.

"Can..."

"No buts, this is the stupidest and most dangerous thing I have ever done in my life, although that doesn't mean I don't wish I were still young now..."

Just as Granny Smith finished her words, a large group of injured ponies started heading towards one place, which obviously aroused the curiosity of the Apple family...

"Where are they going?" Applejack wondered. There wasn't any medical facility in the direction these injured ponies were heading. What were they going there for? Granny Smith and Apple Bloom followed them.

"Applejack, don't just stand there. The answer you want to know won't come to you on its own," Apple Bloom called out to Applejack, and Granny Smith spoke up.

"For Apple Lili, it's like an apple can't grow legs and advertise itself while crawling into the fruit basket." Granny Smith moved her old arms and legs, not knowing that she had inexplicably predicted a wave of...

When they reached the top of the hill, they discovered that the destination of these ponies was actually a...circus???

......

When Applejack and the others sat down with curiosity...

The lights on the stage came on, and a strange machine appeared in front of me. It looked like a small carriage with a large barrel on it. The metal equipment connected to it also roared with a burst of green magic when the handle was shaken.

Then came the silhouette of the voice and image that Applejack hated so much! The Smooth Tongue Brothers! They weren't in jail for their fraud yet?!

"Thank you all for coming. I promise that every minute you spend here is worth it."

"I guarantee that this is the most valuable time you will ever spend in your life!!!"

The smooth talkers then emerged from behind the curtain, but they didn't seem as relaxed as they did before. Instead, they seemed a little nervous? Their words were also a little stiff, as if they were reciting lines...

"Slippery tongue?! This is really interesting!" Applejack and Mattos frowned, staring suspiciously at the two slippery tongue performers who were performing more and more smoothly on the stage...

"It looks like everything is going well." The flashing red crystal behind the curtain heard the conversation coming from inside, which was basically the same as the brief words in the letter given by Teacher Luo Shu, so he nodded, and then entered the circus to see what Teacher Luo Shu was planning to do. He even designed some plots.

The existence of the flashing red crystal is to prevent these plots from being distorted. After finding a suitable place to sit down, I watched the increasingly skilled movements of the slick tongue. They seemed to have found the feeling of cheating before, and the jingle in their mouths became more and more fluent...

"Don't our words sound true?"

"Impossible? Imaginary? Impossible?"

"It's like magic?! Anypony with any illness is welcome to come up and try this magical water!!"

"Don't worry! Let's pick a pony!" The two smooth-talking brothers' unison convinced the ponies...but they were in a panic because they couldn't find the pony who played the role of the pony with two injured front hooves! !
