Beauty and the Bodyguard

The two of them went all the way down.

The college prison looks dilapidated, but the main part is underground, and it is not an ordinary basement, but a huge underground palace, covering an area of ​​100 acres.

Han Qi was bored, so he simply acted as a tour guide for Lin Yi: "This was originally the tomb of a certain important person. It seems to be the ninth or tenth generation of the King of the Sea, from the legendary sea-protecting clan."

"Guhai Clan?"

As an outsider, Lin Yi has established a foundation in Jianghai College, but he still doesn't know much about the local secrets of the past. Even the history of Jianghai College is limited, let alone other things.

"Actually, I don't know much about the specifics. None of the official records have acknowledged their existence. It's like an old rumor passed down by word of mouth."

Han Qi paused, then suddenly looked mysterious: "But I heard that the Tian family is a branch descendant of the Huhai clan, and it has been widely spread. I even asked the Tian family uncle specifically."

"How did he say?"

"What else can I say? I'll be scolded."

Han Qi pinched his nose in embarrassment, but his expression became more determined: "After that scolding, I was basically convinced that the rumor in the market is absolutely nonsense, but the Tian family must also be related to the Haihu clan."

While the two were talking, they had already reached the depths of the underground palace.

Prisoners of all kinds can be seen everywhere. There are no handcuffs or shackles, and no door locks. They are all free to move around. All kinds of trading and entertainment projects are available. At first glance, it seems that it is not a prison at all, but a fully closed community.

"Is the management here good?"

Lin Yi looked around and couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

In Lin Yi's expectation, even if prisoners were autonomous, it would be as full of chaos and violence as the gray area outside, and at best it would be able to maintain the most basic hierarchical order.

After all, the people who will be imprisoned here are not only vicious and lawless, but also have some anti-social tendencies that break through the bottom line. The management difficulty is much higher than that of the students outside.

Don't forget that even if there is an academic society supervising outside, there are still various conflicts of grudges and grudges every day. There are always wars between forces like Lin Yi and Wu She. The death of several people is not news at all.

If ten or eight people don't die here every day, can it be called a prison?

However, the reality before us is that although there are no smiles on the faces of these prisoners, they are all calm and calm in their movements, which at least shows that they have a heartfelt trust in the order here.

Being able to do this in a completely autonomous underground prison had an impact on Lin Yi no less than Du Wuhui's previous attack in the Ten-Seat Council.

One thing to say, although he was fooled by his clone that time, the strength Du Wuhui showed was indeed shocking.

At least with Lin Yi's current strength, if he wants to fight him in a normal way, the chance of winning is probably infinitely close to zero. After all, that is the level that truly represents the top combat power of the top ten seats in the academy.

But the shock brought to Lin Yi by the scene in front of him was even worse!

The reason is simple. As long as you give yourself time, it is just a matter of time to match or even surpass Du Wuhui. But if you want to manage a lawless land like this, Lin Yi thinks that he may not be able to do it in his lifetime.

Han Qi and Yourong smiled and said: "That's why I want to bring you here to see me. My old superior has been waiting for you for a long time."

Without anyone to guide him, Han Qi led Lin Yi through the streets and alleys with ease, and soon reached the depths of the underground palace.

Since the other party is the actual controller here, comparable to a prison emperor, Lin Yi originally thought that his residence must be a decent luxurious palace. After all, the underground palace has no shortage of such places.

Unexpectedly, what was in front of him was just a small courtyard with an unprepossessing appearance.

Judging from the structural layout, this place was originally designed to be just a place to bury low-level servants. Although after renovation, it has a more livable feel like many other facilities in the underground palace, but it is still inevitably shabby.

Then, Lin Yi saw an old man with half-white hair cooking that kind of food.

The movements are very skillful and the details are in place, as if he is really an old farmer who has worked in the fields all his life. Everything is so natural. Lin Yi does not find it strange at all when something that should be very strange appears in such a place.

"Can vegetables grow without sunlight?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but ask.

The old man did not look back, and continued to bend down to plant vegetables, while replying with a smile: "As people adapt to the environment, vegetables will also adapt to the environment. As long as you cultivate it carefully, it will still grow, but the taste is a bit worse and needs to be improved for a while. , I’ll cook a pot for you to try later.”

Lin Yi nodded slightly, raised his hands and saluted: "Lin Yi has met the senior."

The old man put down the farm tools in his hands, clapped his hands and turned around: "Little friend Lin Yi, there is no need to be polite. I have been a close friend of you for a long time. After seeing all your deeds, I believe that you and I will be like-minded fellow travelers."

"Come, let's go into the house and talk."

The old man walked in first with a smile and poured a cup of tea for each of Lin Yi and Han Qi. His gestures were casual and carefree. After careful consideration, he could smell a hint of natural charm and endless aftertaste.

Lin Yi was in awe, this was a truly enlightened person.

The so-called attainment does not refer to the state of cultivation, but to a pure state of mind.

Buddhist monks have a Zen spirit, and Taoist masters have a Taoist spirit. Lin Yi has never had close contact with either of them, but I think they are similar to the old man in front of him.

"The tea made by Master Ban always tastes so delicious. It's a pity that I won't be allowed to take it away."

Han Qi picked up the tea cup and drank it down like a whale swallowing a cow. He was full of regrets. The virtue of the cow swallowing the peony made Lin Yi feel contempt.

"If you don't know how to drink tea, don't waste it."

Lin Yi remarked that his food appearance was much more gentle than Han Qi's, and drank it all in two gulps.

"..."

Han Qi was dumbfounded and cursed: "I still think you are a cultured person! How is your kid's food any better than mine?"

The old man smiled: "Drink more if you like, it's not a good tea."

This is the truth. It is indeed not a precious spiritual tea, not even a spiritual tea. It is just a very ordinary tea, and there is not much spiritual energy in it.

But it is fresh and focused, making people forget about the world.

Lin Yi smiled: "Since the elders have given me this gift, you're welcome, please have another drink."

The old man smiled and poured it for Lin Yi with his own hands. Han Qi on the side was not polite when he saw this. He changed a big bowl and poured a full bowl for himself. His unworldly virtue was really heartbreaking.

After knowing each other for such a long time, this was the first time Lin Yi discovered that Han Qi actually had such an obscure side.

"I wonder what little friend Lin Yi thinks of the current situation?"

The old man asked with a slight smile, but it didn't mean he was taking a test. It was more like chatting casually, making people less nervous.
