Chapter 1064 Paper Prison

My gaze sank slightly as Old Bones said, "Young man, judging by your voice, you're not old. There are many things you don't understand."

"People! At some point, they stop thinking about this and that. Just being alive is enough."

"That's how I am, and that's how everyone in this prison is."

"If we had enough courage to gamble with life and death, there wouldn't be anyone in this prison."

Old Bones laughed, "We're willing to cower in this prison and live this life without seeing the light of day because we're afraid of death."

"Young man, if you think you can persuade us to revolt with your silver tongue, you're wrong."

"The people who live here are basically people who have figured things out. If you think about it from another perspective, aren't we living a life where we're waited on hand and foot?"

For a moment, I didn't know how to respond.

Jiu Gui had told me before that if you meet someone who has lost all hope, don't bother trying to persuade them. It's a waste of time. It's better to just chop them up and let them reincarnate sooner, it's cleaner that way.

Especially those martial artists who have lost all hope, their world is just about survival.

I glanced at Su Su and said, "Get him!"

Su Su stepped forward, intending to mobilize her qi, but Ye Yang came out of the prison cell at this moment, "No need to be so troublesome. Give me a minute."

Ye Yang strode to where I had been standing and knocked on the wall a few times. Then, his right hand suddenly contracted his five fingers inward, grabbed the wall with an eagle-claw grip, and pulled out a square brick.

Before I could figure out what Ye Yang was going to do, he reached into the wall and pulled out an iron ring with a chain attached.

Although I didn't understand mechanisms, I could tell that the iron ring was the handle to activate some mechanism.

After Ye Yang pulled open the iron chain, the sound of the mechanism turning echoed on all the prison doors.

When I turned my head to look, I saw the cross lock on Old Bones's cell rotating on its own.

Ye Yang used his internal force and said loudly, "I have activated the main mechanism of the iron prison. Your doors will probably all be opened in ten minutes."

"If you haven't come out fifteen minutes after the doors open, all the mechanisms in this level of the prison will be activated. Anyone who hasn't left will die here."

"I believe you all have seen the map of the iron prison, and you know where the first foothold is. If you can get to the first foothold before the mechanism is activated, you will be temporarily safe."

"I'll be waiting for you there!"

After Ye Yang finished speaking, he dragged me towards the depths of the prison.

Immediately, a burst of curses came from behind us, and some people even shouted that they would tear us to pieces.

Ye Yang ignored the shouts and dragged me to the end of the prison corridor, where there was only a one-meter square opening, like a well.

Ye Yang jumped down directly, and I followed him into the well.

As soon as my feet landed, I felt like I was stepping on rotten mud. Not only did my feet sink halfway into the mud, but a strange smell of paper soaked in water also spread over me.

I looked down at my feet and saw that I was stepping on something that looked like a human face.

I instinctively pulled my foot back and realized that the thing I had stepped on was a paper human face. And I was indeed standing on a pile of waste paper soaked in water.

Su Su said, "These are all paper figures! How can there be so many paper figures here?"

Ye Yang said, "Those are the prison guards who deliver our food."

Just now, Su Su was asking me, if the back half of the prison was impassable, what did the people in the prison eat?

Now it can be explained.

The prison guard who delivers food to me is a living person. When he reaches the dividing line between the two prisons, he will switch to a paper figure to deliver food to the people behind.

These paper figures are just disposable items. After delivering the food to the prisoners, the paper figures will continue to walk towards the well we jumped down from until they fall into the well.

Over the years, the paper figures accumulated here have piled up into a small mountain.

In the past, Ye Yang would definitely not stay in this kind of place.

This time, he stood in the stinky pile of waste paper, staring at the dark passage in front of him.

At this moment, we heard a neat unlocking sound above our heads.

The cross lock on the prison cell had been opened once, the second time, the third time, and the fourth lock would soon be opened. When the prison door was wide open, those vicious criminals locked in the iron prison would swarm out.

Before the prisoners arrive, Ye Yang and I must first ensure that we are invincible, and then find a way to deter the prisoners and make them work for me.

Ye Yang's purpose in rushing to the foothold was to set up traps there first.

But if he doesn't move forward and just stands here, we can't set up traps, can we?

Just as I was about to speak, Ye Yang spoke first, "Stupid dog, what level of opponent can you kill with your Luo Kou Chen formation?"

I thought for a while and said, "People at our level will definitely die. With your cooperation, we can kill someone one level higher than us. Any higher than that, I'm not sure."

Ye Yang said in a deep voice, "Then go back!"
