Chapter 327 The Quiet Room

The detention center under the Liyue General Affairs Department is very large, and Shi Quan, as the most threatening prisoner, is locked up in the deepest part.

Although it is true that as Wu Guan said, you only need to keep walking along this corridor and you can see Shi Quan at the end, but in fact this road is not very easy to walk.

——Because there are other prisoners’ rooms along the way.

It seemed like these guys hadn't seen anyone for a long time. When they saw a harmless-looking young man like Chongyun, they all howled.

Not only were they making weird noises, there were even agitated people hammering on the iron gates. Chongyun even suspected that if he hammered harder, these iron gates wouldn't be able to stop them.

and...

Aren't they afraid of pain? With that kind of intensity, let alone ordinary people, not even the holders of the Eye of God can hammer with such high intensity.

"..."

If it were Chongyun before, seeing this kind of formation, he would have to stop and take a look. But now he has more important things to do, so he ignores those guys fighting desperately.

Soon, he passed through the most complicated area, and the noise gradually disappeared behind him.

It seemed that the people in the General Affairs Department were indeed paying close attention to Shi Quan. The nearest iron room to the room at the end was hundreds of meters away.

Is this preventing Shi Quan from communicating with those people?

Chongyun thought as he walked forward.

For some reason, after experiencing the crazy shouts of those gangsters and the treasure-stealing group, an ominous premonition arose in Chongyun's heart...

He has roughly managed to combine the ice-attribute God's Eye with the power of his pure Yang body into one, which will neither cause his temperament to change drastically due to overheating, nor restrict the effects of the Pure Yang body.

Therefore, there are absolutely no signs of evil spirits here, and the treasure-thief gangs and gangsters have not been affected by this.

So...the reason why they are so violent must have something to do with Shi Quan...

As he thought about it, Chongyun paused in his steps.

He has reached the end.

A door that looked extremely solid stood in front of him. The unknown black and gray material seemed to be telling something terrible, and it seemed to be advising visitors to leave.

"This should be where Shi Quan was imprisoned."

Chongyun did not hesitate and knocked gently on the door. Then with a "click" sound, the door's lock was unlocked.

——This is done by the specialist outside.

Chongyun reacted almost instantly.

This door is definitely not simple. When he just touched it, Chongyun felt a hint of alchemy in it... To be able to install the alchemy creation here so obscurely, the commissioner seemed to have a lot of tricks.

Afterwards, Chongyun shook his head. No matter what, he should focus on the matter in front of him now. As for the commissioner's intentions... He believed that there was someone who knew better than him to handle it, so he didn't have to worry at all.

at this point.

...

When you open the door, the structure of the room inside is very simple.

A wooden table, a wooden chair, a wooden bed...that's all.

There were no windows, no bookshelves, or anything to provide entertainment.

As a backbone of the alchemist family, Shi Quan's treatment was even worse than that of many ordinary treasure stealing groups.

"Uncle Quan."

After entering the door, Chongyun first bowed in accordance with etiquette, and then looked at the alchemist.

He is sitting on the bed with his hands in refuge, as if he is engaged in daily practice.

After hearing Chongyun's words, he slowly opened his eyes.

"...Chongyun?"

Shi Quan seemed a little surprised by this young man's visit, but his puzzled expression flashed past, and he soon sighed softly.

"I didn't expect... you were the only one who dared to come visit me at this time." Although his voice was very flat and without fluctuations, you could still hear the unconcealed sadness in it.

He can be regarded as devoting his life to the Alchemist clan. When he reached middle age, he even gambled his life's reputation in exchange for a chance... In the end, he failed and was abandoned by the Alchemist clan. In the end, only one person was rejected by him.

His descendants came to visit him.

Really...

Nature plays tricks on people.

"Uncle Quan, the outside world still doesn't know why you were imprisoned. There are also some tricks in the family...What exactly did you do?"

After the basic etiquette was completed, Chongyun did not hesitate to ask about the purpose of the trip.

"..."

Hearing this, Shi Quan fell silent, and there was clearly a trace of struggle and hesitation on his expression.

After a few seconds, he shook his head gently and said, "I know the official intention of this move, and I did make a big mistake."

"...But you also saw it, Chongyun."

"Whether it's Shi Qi or those old guys, they don't care what the truth is."

Having said this, he looked at Chongyun with an extremely serious expression.

"Huh? Don't care about the truth?"

After hearing this, Chongyun showed a somewhat puzzled expression. Why?

In his opinion, the reason why the alchemist family has not taken action for a long time is because they don't know what Shi Quan has committed. Without knowing the situation, taking rash actions will lose the opportunity.

but...

Shi Quan's expression seemed to indicate that this matter was not that simple?

Seeing Chongyun's puzzled expression, Shi Quan seemed to be very patient. He gently explained:

"Chongyun, think about it carefully. I made a big mistake, why am I locked up in the detention center instead of Liyue Prison?"

"I originally thought that the matter did not reach the stage where I needed to be sent to jail, but now it seems that it is not what I thought?" Chongyun replied.

"good."

Shi Quan nodded, then raised his hand, and a touch of pure water element gathered in his hand.

Then, he continued: "I believe you know that I was brought here by Ningzhe personally, and I did not make any excuse for the mistakes I made. According to common sense, I should be directly thrown into prison."

"Ningzhe is Lord Ningguang's younger brother, and Lord Ningguang is the Heavenly Power Star in charge of legal principles. No matter what, I shouldn't just be locked up here."

"...I was locked up in a detention center with only gangsters, and my Eye of God was not confiscated."

Having said this, he seemed to remember something and smiled.

"You mean, the official has a plan for this?" Chongyun understood the meaning of Shi Quan's words, but he didn't understand one thing, "But as far as I know, the official is mobilizing the good work of the Strata Abyss.

Is it possible that what you are doing is related to the Strata Abyss?"

"..."

Shi Quan fell silent again. Perhaps the days of silence here made his heart calm down. He had already thought about how stupid his previous actions were.

"actually..."

Seeing Shi Quan's silence, Chongyun had some idea in his heart, but the most important thing about his visit today had not yet been asked.

"I am here today, and I still have a question that I hope to be answered."

"...Say." Shi Quan raised his head and looked at the blue-haired boy.

"I sensed a strange aura a few days ago. It gave me the same feeling as my old master, but it was different..."

"etc!"

Before Chong Yun finished speaking, Shi Quan suddenly interrupted him.

"Huh?" Chongyun looked at him with some confusion.

"The breath you mentioned..." Perhaps even Shi Quan himself didn't notice it, his tone was trembling, "Is it coming from... the direction of the layered rock abyss?"

"Well..." Chongyun closed his eyes and thought carefully, then nodded, "That's right."

"..."

Seeing Chongyun nod, Shi Quan fell silent again.

It seems like...he really did something stupid.
