Infernal Hero Chapter 7: I will never die

A song is playing in the loudspeaker in the vent area. I heard Miao Shifan introduce that it is called Nanniwan, which is a very old and very old song. The high-pitched and loud singing voice of the female singer brings a feeling of prosperity. Miao Shifan sat on the concrete platform, dancing to the music, listening very deeply.

"This song is very nice, what's the name of the person who sang it?" Gu Tianyou put down the record of injustice in his hand and turned his head to ask.

Miao Shifan closed his eyes: "Guo Lanying, a very old singer."

Gu Tianyou felt that the voice was full of vigor, not like it came from an old man, so he asked again: "How old is it?"

Miao Shifan was interrupted from listening to the song, jumped off the stage, the big iron cuffs on his body made a clattering sound, he pondered for a while, and said, "Except for immortality, the entire Qinzhou Prison has nothing to do with it. Older than her."

"Oh, that's really old." This comparison made it easy for Gu Tianyou to imagine that this old lady Guo was indeed very old.

Anyone who can compare his age with immortality is naturally not a young man. Speaking of immortality, Qinzhou Prison is very famous. If Gu Tianyou is the youngest tyrant in the history of Qinzhou Prison, then this old gentleman is the oldest.

There are many legends about this immortality in Qinzhou Prison.

Gu Tianyou has never met this person, but only heard people say that there is a strange old man in the Western prison area. It is said that he had already entered before liberation, and no one can tell what the crime was, it was indefinite anyway. After the liberation, the new government granted amnesty to the toilers who were detained by the old government, but did not let them go. It is said that the reason why Qinzhou Prison built a 30-foot-high courtyard wall during the Republic of China was to prevent the old man from escaping and stealing his mouth.

In the early 1980s, rule of law institutions across the country were trying to rehabilitate him. Considering his age, the prison had given a policy to let him out. But the old man refused. He claimed that he had lived here for ninety-nine years and spent more than eighty years here. For him, there is no better place here.

Ninety-nine is a humble saying. The ancients said that a hundred years old is a thief, stealing the years of the sky. It means that people who are over a hundred years old are stealing the age of God to live. Therefore, centenarians don't like to say their real age, and they call themselves ninety-nine when they are over a hundred years old.

Because they lived so long, the inmates in the prison were given a nickname: the old never die.

It is rumored that this old immortal has a knack for tricks. Ancient color tricks, mysterious and extraordinary. In the past 20 years, he often showed his hand during the festivals, or occasionally when he was in a cheerful mood. The older prison guards who have worked here have met more or less a few times. Listening to some veteran prisoners, this old man's every show has a title, such as painting the ground as a prison, immortals picking beans, and the performances are completely the same as those of the old Jianghu people running the docks, talking and acting, who can do it at your fingertips. Can't see through.

"Do you think this old immortal is already dead?" Gu Tianyou thought about those legends, and always felt a little unreal. He has lived here for so long, if such a person really exists, why have I never seen?

"Since it's called immortality, of course it's still alive."

When Miao Shifan said this, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he seemed to smile, looking a little mysterious.

Gu Tianyou suddenly made a decision to find this old immortal. If you want to find a prisoner in this place, the most convenient way is to go to the prison political commissar He Weiran. From Comrade He, Gu Tianyou learned that the well-known old prison tyrant is still serving his sentence, and he is in the changing room in the West Prison District. Because he is too old, he has not left the changing room very much all these years, but it is certain still alive.

Adolescents, once curiosity is aroused, it is difficult to restrain. Soon, Gu Tianyou collected more information about the immortality.

The crime of immortality was re-imposed after liberation, the crime of hooliganism, a crime with a lot of information.

Apart from the joke about getting over the wall and going out to steal your mouth, there is another joke that is widely circulated.

It's about the late 1970s, when a rebel leader with a lot of evil and extraordinary background was imprisoned in the Xijian District. The reason for this person was a bit of a bastard. He killed his high school teacher with his bare hands and raped the teacher's three daughters. And it has been confirmed that in this person's most glorious ten years, he has done more than one such thing. So he was caught in the movement to set things right and settle the crime.

One morning, the man suddenly disappeared.

Live without people, dead without corpses.

On the night of the incident, the iron gate of the brand name was locked from the outside, and the large iron lock of three and a half pounds was not damaged at all, but a large living person just disappeared out of thin air.

After investigation by the prison, the biggest possibility is that the person was killed in a new cell, and then the murderer was buried. For this reason, the prison guards dug three feet in the new name, but found nothing.

The matter is extremely horrifying, the news is tightly sealed, and it is still an unsolved case.

The other inmates in that year's revamp generally believed that the man was killed by the old immortality and then destroyed. Based on the fact that the night before the person disappeared, the old immortal had calculated a fortune for the person and concluded that the person would not survive that night. The prison guards who were in charge of the investigation back then also asked the old man about this matter, but of course they didn't get any useful information. Of course, the prison cannot use the fortune-telling incident as evidence. The case was finally settled.

The case was so evil that it was widely circulated in the prison. From time to time, the old immortal has become an old monster who eats people and does not spit out bones.

The more information collected, the more curious Gu Tianyou became about this person. So, finally, one day, he couldn't hold it in any longer, he went to the jail cell of the west prison district, and saw this legendary figure.

The old prisoner and the little prisoner face each other.

The turbid old eyes suddenly showed a strange look, but Gu Tianyou's clear eyes couldn't hide the disappointment.

This is the old man who is rumored to be gods, so that's what he looks like. There is no white beard and white hair all over the face, there is no mysterious and rumored fairy style bones, and there is no temple bulge that is full of red light and full of energy. He is completely a sallow and thin old man, not only does he have no hair on his head, but he does not even have a beard on his face. With sunken eye sockets, no flesh on the bridge of the nose, it looks like a skeleton.

Gu Tianyou came here full of expectations that a young hero would meet a master in martial arts novels, but what he saw was such a spare ribs fairy who seemed to be dying at any time. His disappointment was beyond words. Turn around and want to leave. But he was blocked by a thin, bamboo-like hand. In the next second, the hand faltered, and Gu Tianyou was surprised to find that there was a jade sign in his hand, with a beauty embossed on it, with an ancient shape. , lifelike.

"Does it look good?"

The old immortal's voice was hoarse, like a broken bellows leaking from all sides. While speaking, with a flick of his wrist, the jade card disappeared from Gu Tianyou's sight again.

"Have fun?"

The old man's face almost touched the tip of Gu Tianyou's nose, and his tone seemed to be a kidnapper who was using his means to abduct children.

"If you want to learn, give me three kowtows now."

"I don't want to learn."

"Learn, my craft is very interesting, once you learn it, it will be a lifetime job."

"A lifetime in prison?"

"I don't like going out, otherwise this place can't keep me in. Apart from the work at hand, I know a lot of things. Your roots are not bad, you are the most suitable age. Learn and I will teach you everything."

"Are there any conditions? For example, let me learn to go out and clear the door for you in the future?"

"No, as long as you want to learn, there are no conditions."

"Forget it, I don't want to kowtow to you."

"It doesn't matter, you can learn without kowtowing." The old man decided to relax the admission requirements.

"Then I'll just reluctantly learn it." Gu Tianyou hesitated for a while, then asked, "Do you like to learn?"

"As long as the skill is deep and the iron pestle is ground into a needle!" Lao Budie said a nonsense, then took out a piece of old cloth from under the bed and handed it to Tianyou, saying, "Master leads the door into the door to practice on your own."

"What led to the door?"

"This is a picture of a hundred dramas. All the techniques, movements and secrets of various medicines in the Yazimen are on it. You can use it to practice."

"Is it appropriate to give such an important thing to me at the first meeting?"

"If you can find me a second twelve-year-old boy, no matter how many times, as long as you don't talk as much as you, I'll pass it on to him immediately."

The most important thing in prison life is time. When Gu Tianyou was bored, he took this picture of a hundred dramas and went back to practice slowly. If he didn't understand anything, he went to the old immortal for advice. At a young age, he has a good foundation, and he has the guidance of someone who understands.

In three months, I learned a dozen tricks. In particular, one of his hands is extremely flexible, and there are two eggs hidden between the palms of the fingers, and most people can't see the flaws. The old immortal is also full of praise for this. Miao Shifan was even more envious, saying that if he picked up a scalpel with his hands, he could stab the world of medicine.

In this place where there is no desire for material life, spiritual life is also deficient to the extreme. With this picture of a hundred dramas, Gu Tianyou was able to add a new game to pass the boring time. As said in a book, because of boredom, human beings have thought of many games to pass the time and created a variety of art categories. It is also because of boredom that the thirteen-year-old Gu Tianyou has been able to accurately grasp most of the techniques on the Baixi map. His hand muscles are so dexterous that he can grab sixteen raw eggs with one hand.

No matter how fun the game is, there are times when you get tired of playing the game. After you have practiced enough techniques, you start to ponder and hone your body skills again.

According to the old immortality, the founder of the Harrier Gate was a hero in the late Ming Dynasty. He once entered the palace at night to steal treasures, and stole the two most beloved treasures of Emperor Kangxi, the emerald mandarin duck bracelet and the Kowloon Cup. When Gu Tianyou heard this, he didn't get angry at the time, and almost yelled at him. The old liar was too unprofessional, so he made up a story and directly plagiarized Mr. Shan Tianfang. Fortunately, Lord Long also listened to storytelling well when he was there, and Gu Tianyou didn't listen too much, otherwise he would have been fooled and crippled.

Bragging is bragging, there is still some kung fu. For example, this light exercise method sounds quite reliable. Dig a two-foot pit on the ground, jump from the pit to the outside three hundred times a day, dig one inch deep a day, add one pound to the load, and three months later, the depth of the pit is six feet and six feet. . Gu Tianyou walked through He Weiran's back door and dug a pit in the vegetable garden of the armed police squadron. According to the requirements in the picture, he tied a 30-pound load on his body and started jumping into the pit on the first day.

One month later, the depth of the pit has reached 1.6 meters, which is almost equal to the height of thirteen-year-old Gu Tianyou. With a weight of 60 pounds, every time I jump up, I have to plan my hands and feet to avoid embarrassment. I persisted in this for another month, and the depth of the pit has reached three meters. Strictly according to what the old man said, the dig is steep and steep, and the load is 90 pounds at the bottom of the pit. Not to mention jumping, I can't even climb up. An immortal evil. Angrily rushing to find someone, only to hear the bad news.

The old immortal, the immortal immortal, finally died. On the day of his death, he was bragging about it with people the night before, and he was hardened the next morning after sleeping.

Fu Zhenhai, the number one shop in the western prison district, recited his last words to Gu Tianyou: The key to improving the verticality of light work is in one word of lightness. Believe it or not, the weight on the body is kept tied, the pit insists on jumping, and the day is right. Let's see how it turns out.

Gu Tianyou suspects that this is the last hole the old guy dug for himself before he died. But on the other hand, thinking about the legend about the height of the big wall and stealing mouths, I thought that I had been practicing stupid for two months anyway, and it would be okay to be stupid for another month. What if it was true? After a night of intense ideological struggle, I finally decided to continue practicing!

Three months later, Gu Tianyou took off his 120-pound load and stood at the bottom of a 45-meter-deep pit, looking up with anticipation, like a frog at the bottom of the well, and above it is freedom. As soon as the weight is lifted, I feel as if my whole body is about to fly, and my confidence is greatly increased. So the legs are slightly bent, the qi and blood are poured into the soles of the feet, the qi is lifted to the top door, and the arms are spread like wings. The last action is based on the plot of the martial arts novel, in order to fly out of the pit. Helps maintain balance in the air.

The height of four feet above the ground is indeed far better than ordinary people, but it is still one million light-years away from jumping out of the pit. In the end, he used the old method of digging the pedals with his hands, and climbed up in dismay. It's not that he got nothing, because according to the elder brother of the armed police who was squatting at the entrance to watch the lively scene, he had a chance to climb over the eight-meter-high wall.

Being a big fool of Tianzi No. 1 for a few months, in addition to being really agile and ape-like, another gain is that he has grown a lot. Gu Tianyou was a little relieved by this. However, when Miao Shifan helped analyze the reason, he thought that it was the result of the crazy growth of adolescence, and maybe it would have been a little longer without carrying the weight on his back.

The now thirteen-year-old Gu Tianyou is 1.7 meters tall, with a strong physique, not losing to adults. His reputation for being cruel and ruthless has spread far and wide. The status of the little prison tyrant has been consolidated. Few people still treat him as a child.
