After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 409 Abandoned prison, mysterious prisoner!
Ancestral Hall, second floor.

Compared to the hustle and bustle outside, the building is much quieter.

There is a main room on the second floor, where tablets and portraits of the caravan’s ancestors are enshrined. The smell of incense can be smelled from far away.

As an outsider, Chen Yang is certainly not qualified to enter.

Liu Henghu led him through the short corridor in front of the main house and came to a house next to it.

He reached out and knocked on the door first, and then pushed it open and went in after getting a response.

The room was not big, only about 20 to 30 square meters, and the furnishings were very simple. There was a blanket on the floor, and two old people were sitting on the blanket, one on the left and one on the right.

He looked to be in his seventies or eighties, with white hair and a very old appearance.

There was a small table in the middle of the blanket, with some melon seeds, peanuts and drinks on it. There was a small TV in front of it, and an old drama "The Legend of the New White Snake" was playing on it.

The two old men were shelling peanuts and watching with great interest.

"Uncle Master, Xiaoyang is here."

Liu Henghu was very respectful towards these two elders.

The two elders nodded and looked at Chen Yang.

Liu Henghu hurriedly introduced him to Chen Yang.

There are two spiritual masters left in the caravan, Liu Henghu's great uncle Ma Fusheng and his third great uncle Xu Xiangkui.

Chen Yang quickly called him "senior".

Both of them looked at Chen Yang, sized him up and down. Ma Fusheng pointed to the front and motioned Chen Yang to sit down.

"Henghu, go and greet the guests."

Xu Xiangkui waved his hand and sent Liu Henghu out.

"Two seniors, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Chen Yang sat on the floor on a blanket.

He looked at the two people in front of him with some confusion. After all, we had never met before. Why did they call me up to meet him alone out of the blue?
"Don't be nervous."

Ma Fusheng smiled and poured a glass of wine for Chen Yang. "It is said that heroes emerge from youth. I often heard Henghu mention you before, and we thought he was exaggerating. But today, I see that you are indeed quite capable. Even we cannot see through your realm..."

As soon as Chen Yang entered the door, they had been looking at him, or rather examining him, but the result was that, in their eyes, this young man was just like an ordinary person.

This surprised them.

They knew Liu Henghu well, so he wouldn't lie. This young man had already broken through the spiritual realm, but why was there no fluctuation of blood and energy in his body, and his aura was so weak, no different from that of an ordinary person?
"Senior, you are joking. I just know a little bit about how to restrain my breath. I broke through the spiritual realm a few days earlier than Brother Hu. It was all due to luck." Chen Yang was humble.

The two didn't care.

Ma Fusheng said, "I don't have any other intentions. On the one hand, I want to meet the young talent that Henghu mentioned. On the other hand, I also want to thank you in person for helping me find my father's remains."

Oh?
Chen Yang was stunned for a moment. Is this Ma Fusheng the son of Ma Santong?
"It's just a small favor. Brother Tiger and I have a good relationship. It's all part of my job. What's more, I'm not helping for nothing. I've also learned the Thirteen Scouting Techniques of the Horse Gang."

Chen Yang was unhappy, as if he couldn't stand being thanked.

Moreover, isn't it just saying thank you, without any concrete material expression?

Ma Fusheng said, "Anyway, I owe you a favor. If you need anything, just ask. As long as it is within my ability, I will definitely not refuse."

Chen Yang waved his hand quickly, "Senior, there's really no need to be so polite."

Favor?

The favors of the Ma Gang are the favors of the Ma Gang, and Ma Fusheng represents himself.

Ma Santong is his father, and Chen Yang helped him find Ma Santong's remains, so naturally he owed Chen Yang a favor.

However, now that the other party has asked for this, Chen Yang cannot immediately ask for this or that. It is better to owe favors.

Ma Fusheng was a little disappointed to hear him say this. He was indeed hoping that Chen Yang would make some requests to him so that he would do him this favor.

But Chen Yang said solemnly, "Having said that, I have something to tell you two seniors..."

Both of their eyes were fixed on Chen Yang's face.

Chen Yang spoke slowly, "Some time ago, I got a piece of news that Ding Huanchun might still be alive..."

"Ok?"

The two old men frowned. The name Ding Huanchun was too familiar to them.

Especially for Ma Fusheng, that person could be said to be the murderer of his father.

Both of them were a little confused. Hadn't the corpse been found? What did Chen Yang mean by this?
"Some time ago, my great-grandfather passed away, and Duan Qiuping from Qingshen Mountain came to pay her respects. I heard from her that Ding Huanchun is still alive..."

"I asked Elder Wang from the association to help investigate. The bones are indeed his. They cannot be faked. But we cannot rule out the possibility that he used the three corpse worms to fake his death during the battle with Elder Ma, and managed to escape with a new identity..."

Chen Yang gave the two of them a brief account of the cause and effect.

After listening to this, the two looked at each other without saying a word for a long time.

Chen Yang said, "I heard from Duan Qiuping that more than ten years ago, Ding Huanchun came to Qingshen Mountain to look for her, and at that time, Ding Huanchun had already broken through the Creation Realm."

A few days ago, Chen Yang once wondered whether Xu Jinsong was Ding Huanchun.

But the facts proved that it was not the case. Xu Jinsong only broke through the Creation Realm in recent years. More than ten years ago, he was still struggling in the Spiritual Realm.

Moreover, there are no Three Corpse Worms in Xu Jinsong's body.

"Three corpse worms?"

Ma Fusheng frowned, but didn't seem to find it strange.

Chen Yang said, "Of course, these are just my guesses. After all, the Three Corpse Insects are mysterious to begin with, and using the Three Corpse Insects to be reborn is even more incredible. Moreover, these words came from Duan Qiuping's mouth, so they may not be credible..."

The two seemed to turn a deaf ear to Chen Yang's subsequent words.

Xu Xiangkui looked at him and asked, "Do you think Ding Huanchun is still alive?"

This……

This question stumped Chen Yang. How can I give you an answer?
"My intuition tells me that this person should still be alive."

After a long while, Chen Yang uttered a word.

Although it was an irresponsible guess, he did have such a hunch.

The two old people were not surprised.

Chen Yang felt a little strange. "Two seniors, I have talked about this with Mr. Wang from the association before, but they all thought it was nonsense. You two..."

Both of them looked a little solemn.

Xu Xiangkui said, "Is this nonsense? Perhaps someone can give an answer!"

"Someone?"

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment and looked at Xu Xiangkui strangely.

Xu Xiangkui looked at Ma Fusheng, as if asking for his opinion.

Ma Fusheng frowned slightly, as if he was a little hesitant.

Chen Yang didn't understand.

After a long while, Ma Fusheng nodded and said, "Let's go after lunch."

"Where are we going?" Chen Yang asked.

I don't know what these two are talking about.

"Go meet someone."

Ma Fusheng was about to say something when firecrackers started popping outside.

It's lunch time.

"Let's go, eat first, and then we'll talk after we finish eating."

Ma Fusheng said this, then stood up and went out with Chen Yang.

……

There are so many people here that it is no exaggeration to describe it as a sea of ​​people.

There were more than sixty tables in the huge yard, but they were still not enough to accommodate everyone, so twenty more tables were set up outside the yard.

Even for this, we still have to follow the buffet.

There were at least a hundred tables of people, and it was a little too lively.

It was fine for Chen Yang to be alone, so he just found an empty seat and sat down.

Looking around, I saw people coming and going, but I didn't recognize any of them.

Loneliness is revealed in the noise.

There was no singing or dancing, no programs. Only the host Liu Henghu gave a speech. Although he had a microphone, there were so many people and it was so noisy that Chen Yang could hardly hear clearly what he said and in the end he just focused on eating.

The banquets in the village are indeed more flavorful than those in the city hotels.

It was because the weather was too cold and the dishes became cold after a short while.

However, although the food was cold, the atmosphere was hot.

...This banquet will last for two days, until tomorrow's dinner.

However, everyone was busy and had come from far away to express their congratulations. After the lunch break, many people left one after another.

Originally, Chen Yang was planning to leave after eating, but Ma Fusheng and the others said that they wanted to take him to meet someone, so he had no choice but to wait.

After eating and drinking, Chen Yang found a quiet place outside the yard and played with his mobile phone for a while.

After waiting for about half an hour, Liu Henghu came over and called him into the house.

In the room, Ma Fusheng seemed to have drunk a little too much, and his face was red.

He took out a key from the cabinet in the corner and handed it to Xu Xiangkui, "Take him there."

Xu Xiangkui nodded.

"Where are we going?" Liu Henghu was a little confused.

"It's none of your business. Go entertain the guests."

Ma Fusheng's words immediately dispelled all of Liu Henghu's doubts.

Chen Yang followed Xu Xiangkui out of the yard, took a small path next to it, and went around to the back mountain.

The trees are big and the forest is deep, with strange and rugged appearance.

This road was obviously seldom walked by people, as it was covered with weeds. Xu Xiangkui walked in front, the keys in his hand jingling.

"Senior Xu, where are we going?"

Chen Yang followed closely behind, not knowing where the old man was leading him.

"prison."

Xu Xiangkui sucked his teeth and uttered two words concisely.

There was a faint smell of alcohol wafting from his body.

"prison?"

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, thinking he had heard wrongly.

Xu Xiangkui led him through a dense forest. Not long after they walked, they saw an old building on a flat ground in front of them.

The building covers an area of ​​several acres and is surrounded by a high wall covered with many vines.

Unlike the wooden buildings in the village, this building is made of brick and stone, with whitewashed exterior walls. However, the walls have become very mottled after so many years of wear and tear.

In broad daylight, in the deep mountains and forests, it is somewhat creepy to see such a building.

In front of the building, there is a tall and large iron gate.

The iron gate was already rusty and there was a big lock hanging on it, but the lock was still very new.

There is a plaque next to the gate. The plaque is already rotten, and you can vaguely see something like "Muchuan's labor reform" written on it.

Is it really a prison?
Chen Yang was a little surprised. How could there be a prison on Tieding Mountain?
It looks like an abandoned prison.

Xu Xiangkui opened the padlock on the door and led Chen Yang in.

The courtyard wall is high and deep, with fallen leaves everywhere. It looks very dilapidated, like a ruin.

I don't know how long it has been since anyone has been here.

"This prison was built in the 1950s and 1960s. It used to hold many scums from the Panshan area. At that time, the conditions were poor and prisoners often escaped from prison. It was not until 1985 that the Fenghuangshan Prison was built and most of the prisoners here were transferred there. The Tiedingshan Labor Camp became history..."

Xu Xiangkui started talking, and as he spoke, he led Chen Yang into a building next door.

After passing through several iron doors, we entered a corridor.

The light in the corridor was a little dim, and you could see many cells on both sides of the corridor.

The iron bed was still there, but there was no one inside.

There was a lack of people and the corridor was filled with the echo of two people's footsteps. This cold environment was somewhat unsettling.

"Senior, are there any prisoners held here?" Chen Yang was curious.

Xu Xiangkui would not bring him here for no reason. If there was no one in this prison, this trip would be meaningless.

When they reached the end of the corridor, there was another iron gate blocking the way. Xu Xiangkui flipped the key again and opened the iron gate.

Behind the iron gate, there was a staircase leading downwards.

It was dark, and although there was a light, there was no electricity. Xu Xiangkui took out a flashlight and turned it on, then led Chen Yang downstairs.

Xu Xiangkui said, "Back then, some serious criminals were not transferred because they were afraid of accidents during the transfer. They are still detained here and managed by our caravan..."

"After so many years, all the prisoners who were supposed to die of old age have died. Today, there is only one left alive. I'm afraid the Mountain-Climbing Association has forgotten about this place. Only we remember to send him rice, flour and oil every month."

Follow the stairs and go underground.

There was also an iron gate blocking the way.

Xu Xiangkui opened the iron door, and a dark corridor appeared in front of him.

The corridor is made of cement floor, and there are also independent cells on both sides.
It was cold, damp and a bit depressing, making Chen Yang feel uncomfortable.

Xu Xiangkui turned off the flashlight. There was a light spot above the corridor, and the sunlight from outside could shine in. Although the light was a little dim, it did not affect his vision.

Walking to the end of the corridor, Xu Xiangkui stopped in front of a cell.

The cell door was tightly closed.

Through the small window on the door, you can see a blurry figure inside, walking slowly back and forth.

Xu Xiangkui opened a small door under the iron gate, put the food he brought in through the small door, and then closed the small door again.

He knocked on the door.

"Boom blah blah..."

The sound echoed in the corridor, sounding particularly harsh.

"Yang Dongguan, it's time to eat."

Xu Xiangkui shouted.

It would have been fine if he didn't shout, but this shout stunned Chen Yang.

"Senior, who are you talking about? Yang Dongguan?"

Chen Yang's expression changed slightly.

He almost thought his ears were broken. If he heard correctly, he should be talking about Yang Dongguan, right?
"You heard it right. Ding Huanchun's sworn brother, the fourth of the Longtan Six Friends, Yang Dongguan."

Xu Xiangkui said this calmly.

Chen Yang was shocked.

Chen Yang was a little bit unbelievable, "Didn't Yang Dongguan die a long time ago?"

As early as the 1970s, Yang Dongguan had been captured and shot. This is a foregone conclusion and many people know it.

But now, Xu Xiangkui told him that Yang Dongguan was imprisoned here. How could Chen Yang not be surprised?

Xu Xiangkui said, "Back then, after Yang Dongguan was arrested, he was detained here for a short period of time, and then taken to the provincial capital for execution. However, not long after his death, some changes happened in this prison. A prisoner named Huang Weiheng had an accident while mining in the Beifeng Coal Yard and was seriously injured. He was on the verge of death, but miraculously survived. At that time, someone reported that they saw three insects crawling into his body..."

"At first, no one took it seriously. But later, many prisoners reported that Huang Weiheng seemed like a different person after he woke up from his injury. His temper became extremely violent and he often attacked other prisoners for no reason. Moreover, his strength was increasing day by day..."

"My father was also working in the prison at the time. He suspected that it might be the Three Corpse Worms that were causing trouble, so he reported the matter. Later, people from Baoguo Temple came and, together with my father, conducted a comprehensive examination on Huang Weiheng..."

"But we didn't find any problems. We just heard some things and some people mentioned during the questioning. Everyone suspected that it was Yang Dongguan who was behind it. Not long after, someone from the capital came. That person had some skills and soon found out that there were indeed three corpse worms in his body..."

"His identity has also been confirmed. It is Yang Dongguan. The three three corpse worms were left behind when Yang Dongguan was imprisoned here. He wanted to use them to shed his shell and be reborn. However, the ability of the three corpse worms should only copy his memory. No one has truly experienced it, so it is impossible to determine whether Huang Weiheng and Yang Dongguan are essentially the same person."

"At that time, the expert made an assessment and believed that Huang Weiheng's threat was not very serious. He used a set of acupuncture to seal his Sanjiao Gate, and did not take any further action for the time being. He was just detained as a serious criminal, and he was told to report back before making any further arrangements..."

"But after the expert went back, there was no further news. Later, the prison was relocated and the serious criminals were not taken away. He has been detained until now."

……

Chen Yang was stunned when he heard this.

So, Yang Dongguan also has the Three Corpse Worms in his hands?

Have you ever tried to escape in this way before?

However, his operation seemed unsuccessful.

When the three corpse worms were choosing a new host, they chose a prisoner instead of a labor camp prisoner.

Moreover, someone discovered the clues and alerted the higher-ups. His identity was confirmed and he was locked up directly, where he remains until now.

More than forty years!
How many forty years can we have in our life?
This is the real way to get rid of all the dirt.

At this time, slow footsteps were heard from inside the door, and the food behind the door was taken away.

Silently, without any sound.

"Hey, we want to ask you something."

Xu Xiangkui shouted towards the door, without any nonsense, and got straight to the point.

It was quiet inside, with no response at all.
