The Legend of Xianyu

He walked over to a man and asked politely

"Excuse me, where is the prison?".

The man stopped what he was doing, glanced at Li Tianran, and then replied in surprise.

"Hello young man, what are you doing in the prison?"

"Oh, yes, I have a relative who has been caught in and I want to visit him".

"Oh, is that so?".

"Okay, I'll tell you".

"The Heavenly Prison is just northwest of Tiandu City, behind the Cold Mountain. If you have something to do, be careful, the prison is a place under the jurisdiction of the Golden Sword Guard. "

Hearing the familiar and unfamiliar name of the Golden Daowei, Li Tianran asked

"Golden Swordguard?".

Passers-by heard that Li Tianran didn't even know about the Golden Dao Guard, and hurriedly explained

"The Northern Qi Golden Sword Guard is the elite Janissary Army of the Northern Qi Imperial Court, and is responsible for protecting the security of the royal family and fiefdoms. As an army under the direct control of the Crown, they enjoyed a series of privileges, including the first cut and the second prelude and the imperial concession".

When Li Tianran heard this answer, he was even more puzzled

"Could you please tell me more about these two privileges? "

The passer-by smiled slightly and began to explain: "First cut and then play, it means that when the Golden Sword Guard is on a mission, he can act immediately and kill the suspect, and then report back to the imperial power. This means they don't need to go through a rigorous trial process or ask other senior officials for instructions and can take action at the first opportunity. This privilege gives them more flexibility and execution in dealing with internal and external hostile forces. "

"And the imperial power charter refers to the authorization of the imperial power to the golden sword guards, even if the golden sword guards act against the rules or laws, as long as they are allowed by the imperial power, they can be exempted from punishment. This charter gives them greater freedom and power than other officials and the legal system. "

Li Tianran was shocked to hear these privileges. "So, the status of the Golden Sword Guards in the Northern Qi Imperial Court is very high, and they can do almost whatever they want?".

The old man smiled and nodded. "It is precisely because of this that the privileges of the Northern Qi Golden Sword Guards make them have great power in the imperial court, as long as they act within the scope of imperial power, they can have almost no scruples. This also made them feared, but it also ensured that they effectively maintained the authority and security of the imperial court.

"Thank you."

Li Tianran nodded, thanked the person, and then asked the pedestrians on the street. He soon learned that the location of the Heavenly Dungeon was the most secret and dangerous place in the city, and it was also the core area of the Golden Sword Guard. Only certain high-ranking officials were allowed to enter the prison, and ordinary people were not allowed to approach it.

Hearing this, Li Tianran secretly pondered for a moment. He decided to gather more information around the prison and find clues to enter the prison. So, he continued to walk in the northwest direction, preparing to find out the truth of the prison.

The Northern Qi Heavenly Prison is a daunting place, chilling both from the outside and from the inside of the structure. As an ordinary person, when facing this prison, I am afraid that my face will change drastically.

First of all, the defenses around the Northern Qi Heavenly Prison were extremely tight. Surrounded by high walls, the walls are integrated and there are no gaps to be seen. The walls are made entirely of ice iron, which is thick enough to make it difficult for people to escape by impact or destruction. At the top of the wall, patrolling sentinels keep an eye on the movement around them, wearing thick fur cloaks, combining the harsh extreme cold with unstoppable weapons, making it intimidating.

It is rumored that after entering the Northern Qi Heavenly Prison, the structure is complex and eerie. The labyrinthine passages seem to have no end, and the chisel marks on the walls are everywhere to give a sense of the struggles and failures of those who have escaped. The indifferent slate floor is covered in frozen ice, and every step exudes a creepy coldness. Small windows cut off sunlight from the outside world, shrouding the entire prison in gloomy darkness.

The

supervision of the Northern Qi Heavenly Prison is extremely strict, and the elite guards of the Golden Sword Guard faction are specially selected, they are wearing black and gold uniforms, holding golden knives, as long as they hear the slightest suspicious sound or see suspicious movements, they will immediately turn around and prepare to attack. They obey strict orders and possess superior strength and combat skills that should not be taken lightly.

The

colors of the Northern Qi Heavenly Prison are very few, and most of them are dark blues and grays, which make people feel dull and oppressive. The faint cold light reflected from the walls, like a cold shadow, added to the terrifying atmosphere of the place. It is like a claustrophobic space deprived of vitality, the breath of extreme cold is suffocating, and the soul will condense on this vast ice field.

Li Tianran stood near the prison, staring at the cold and strong fortress in front of him, and a feeling of excitement and nervousness surged in his heart. The information he received along the way told him that the fort was a high-security prison with many criminals and rebels. He knew in his heart that his friend was being held here.

Several large black iron fences stretched into the distance, enclosing the fortress and preventing anyone from entering. The iron fence is covered with sharp spikes, giving it an unusually dangerous feeling. Tall watchtowers were scattered throughout the fortress, and several black-clad guards patrolled them, looking around vigilantly.

Li Tianran's eyes were fixed, and he began to carefully observe the structure and defensive layout of the fortress. The fortress is made of solid stone walls with hundreds of huge pieces of iron embedded in the walls, giving off a sinister aura. The jagged walls were marked by numerous firing ports and rampart batteries, apparently prepared to counter any external threat.

Li Tianran felt that he had to find a way to enter this prison, but he couldn't attract too much attention. He knew very well that with his own strength, he would not be able to break into this fortress directly. He needs to find a hidden path in order to sneak closer to his target.

His gaze quickly scanned his surroundings, eventually locking on a dense grove of trees to the left of the fortress. The woods are ancient and deep, with dense trees, as if forming a natural barrier to isolate the fort from the outside world. Li Tianran decided to take advantage of the cover of this forest and tried to enter the fortress.

Just when Li Tianran wanted to start acting, a figure suddenly dragged him into the alley, Li Tianran just wanted to struggle, but found that the figure was a little unexpectedly familiar.

"I'm here to help you, don't move".

Li Tianran's heart was full of surprise and doubt, and the figure in front of him was dressed in black and wearing a thick round hat, covering his entire face.

The expression of the man in black seemed to be extremely serious at this moment, and there was a hint of worry and warning in his eyes.
