Chapter 517 Imprisoned
"Don't you doubt your own charm? You're so engrossed in your tenderness, why would you even think of running away?"
Lin Ping chuckled, revealing an innocent and harmless appearance.
Jiang Mo, who was standing next to him, rolled her eyes at him and muttered to herself, "How could Sister Hongling fall for a lecher like you?"
Jiang Hongling is the pure and innocent goddess in his heart. Even if he likes a man in the future, he will definitely be a hero with high martial arts skills, courage and responsibility, and single-minded devotion.
Lin Ping is completely unrelated to these words. Not only is he as weak as a chicken, but he is also treacherous, cunning, and glib. Apart from being handsome, he is truly useless.
"I never expected that someone as aloof as my senior sister would be interested in a smooth-talking scoundrel like you."
Even Guo Zhixi glanced at Lin Ping and even considered whether to kill him directly.
As a disciple of the Lotus Palace, Guo Zhixi was resolute. When she said she would lock Lin Ping up, she meant it and was not tempted by sweet words.
“Sir, your cell is specially made.” Guo Zhixi smiled slightly.
"Oh? Is there air conditioning, hot water, and a Simmons mattress? It would be best if there were full-power free Wi-Fi," Lin Ping said, rubbing his hands together.
This isn't a prison cell, it's practically a five-star hotel.
Judging from the fact that Guo Zhixi likes him, it's not impossible.
"The master's words are profound and unfathomable, always leaving people puzzled. Even without these things, there are prison doors made of black iron. Even if Hall Master Mo were to cleave them with this Ghost Firefly Sword, he might not be able to escape."
"Not only that, Master Mo will also be on guard outside for twelve hours a day." Guo Zhixi smiled even more brightly.
Lin Ping knew Mo Youying's strength and had also witnessed the sharpness of the Youying Sword. The combination of the two could cut through iron like mud, but even so, it still couldn't cut through the Xuan Tie prison door.
With Mo Youying watching over them around the clock, escape would be virtually impossible.
“I’m guarding outside for twelve hours straight. What if he needs to use the restroom? He can’t just relieve himself in front of the cell door, can he? I’m afraid I’ll be suffocated by the stench,” Lin Ping said with a wronged expression, completely unconcerned about Mo Youying’s murderous glare.
Guo Zhixi blushed, thinking to herself, "Is it really appropriate to say such things in front of me?"
The answer is yes. If Lin Ping hadn't been unable to understand Guo Zhixi's thoughts, he could have been even more disgusting.
"Sir, you'd better check in quickly, or I'll throw up everything I ate the day before yesterday." Guo Zhixi forcibly pulled Lin Ping into the cell.
"Go and discuss it with your parents-in-law as soon as possible, and try to finalize the marriage tonight. I'm easy to take care of; I won't starve if I only have one steamed bun a day."
Lin Ping shouted at the top of his lungs, wishing he could immediately crawl into Guo Zhiqian's bed and eat those two soft, tender grains of rice.
"Can you shut up? Believe me or I'll cut you up!" Jiang Mo said irritably. If it weren't for Jiang Hongling's orders, he probably would have already killed Lin Ping.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ping immediately covered his groin and said aggrievedly, "My brother didn't do anything to you, why did you cut him?"
"If I cut out your tongue, what will you do then?" Jiang Mo asked curiously.
"So it was just cutting off your tongue? Why didn't you explain more clearly? You gave me such a scare." Before Lin Ping could even relax, his nerves tightened again: "No way, the tongue is more important than a brother!"
"Sister Hongling, can I kill him and then declare the mission a failure..." Jiang Mo sighed to the heavens, regretting accepting the mission.
He was certain this was the most difficult mission of his life, not because the enemy was too powerful, but because his teammates were too incompetent.
Even if he can take on five opponents at once, he still can't carry them; he'll always find a way to make you take on six.
"Since you mentioned Hongling, I have to say something. Did she order you to obey my orders?" Lin Ping leaned against the corner of the wall, legs spread apart, and asked leisurely.
Jiang Mo lowered his head and remained silent, clearly acknowledging this statement.
"Very well, I now order you to cut open the prison door and kill Mo Youying," Lin Ping said calmly.
This proves the saying: It's easy to talk when you're not the one suffering.
"I can't break down the cell door, and I can't beat him," Jiang Mo said truthfully.
Lin Ping suddenly became furious: "If there's no way to escape, then stop talking nonsense. I was deliberately trying to confuse Mo Youying and take this opportunity to tell you how to escape."
"Come closer," Lin Ping said mysteriously.
Jiang Mo obediently did as instructed.
"We'll do it this way first, then that way, and in the end, it'll still be like this..."
Lin Ping gesticulated wildly and chattered on and on, never using a single sentence to summarize something that could be said in ten sentences.
"Oh..." Jiang Mo was completely confused and couldn't grasp the main point of Lin Ping's words. In order not to be looked down upon by him, he could only bite the bullet and agree.
Before we knew it, it was already night.
As Lin Ping said, Mo Youying left temporarily to use the restroom.
They didn't run away immediately because they knew they couldn't escape. Mo Youying hadn't gone far, and she could come back in the time it took to pull up her pants.
Lin Ping picked up a twig and drew crooked diagonal lines on the ground.
"This is the layout of the dungeon. Memorize it quickly, and make sure Mo Youying doesn't find it," Lin Ping said seriously.
"You've been here before?" Jiang Mo asked, puzzled.
They came in blindfolded, and couldn't even remember the route they took, let alone the overall layout.
Lin Ping even wrote down how many sentries there were and how many top officials there were, so what else could he be but a regular visitor?
"You were here just now, your whole family was here," Lin Ping replied irritably, trying to change the subject. He couldn't very well reveal the functions of his left and right eyes.
This is his biggest secret weapon and his greatest reliance.
Whether he believed it or not, Jiang Mo still memorized the layout diagram.
Don't let Lin Ping's unreliable words fool you; when he gets serious... he might be lying too.
"What are you drawing?"
Just as the two were focused, Mo Youying suddenly appeared in front of the prison door, glaring angrily at Lin Ping.
"Oh no, we've been found out!" Lin Ping broke out in a cold sweat, not expecting Mo Youying to go to the toilet so quickly.
No wonder he became a master; he saved a lot of time in this area. He is exactly the kind of "five-second true man" that Lin Ping admires.
Jiang Mo also became vigilant, ready to fight him to the death at any moment.
If the drawing is wrong, that's fine. But if it's actually right, it's easy for Mo Youying to become suspicious and thus increase the level of surveillance.
"Prison door? Haha, you're actually studying prison doors? Forget about it, you can't open them with your scrap metal." Mo Youying laughed and left.
"Wait, stop right there! This isn't a prison door, it's clearly a dungeon layout! Open your eyes, will you?" Lin Ping cursed inwardly.
Mo Youying was clearly insulting his drawing skills; how could such a complex design be a simple prison gate?
“It’s not his fault. I initially thought it was the prison gate too…” Jiang Mo said in a low voice, undoubtedly adding insult to injury.
