My Endless Life.

Chapter 169: Prison of Sin
Horse-drawn carriages carrying supplies were driving on the road.

Li Qi mixed in and followed closely behind the leader of the team, an uncle named Garden.

Uncle Garden is from the inner city. Although he is not a member of the four noble families, it is said that he has some relationship with them.

Because of this, the task of delivering supplies to the prison was given to Uncle Garden.

It took Li Qi a lot of effort to find him, mainly because there were means to control hallucinations in the inner city, and Li Qi's Mirage Ring was not as useful as outside.

But fortunately, Li Qi has the magic of suggestion, which works wonders on ordinary people who have no magic power or energy.

Even if a Tanwu family member has the Qi in their body, it is difficult to detect the influence of suggestion unless they actively resist.

The magic technology from another world is almost like a dimensionality reduction attack to this world. They have no resistance to many magics, which is Li Qi's advantage.

Relying on the art of suggestion, Li Qi compiled a new identity for himself, and also used suggestion to make Uncle Garden think that Li Qi was his distant relative, and only then was he willing to bring him over.

As for the mirror flower and the angel...

Li Qi asked the angel to take Jinghua to another space to hide, and come out to help when necessary.

The main reason is that I want to sneak into the prison, and it is really inconvenient to bring other people with me.

Up to now, Li Qi's plan has been going smoothly. Ronnie should have been sent to the prison by now, and he himself is about to sneak into the prison by transporting supplies.

One of the most mysterious places in this kingdom is about to unveil its veil in front of Li Qi. Li Qi is also very curious about what the so-called prison is like.

"It's almost time, everyone, put on your blindfolds!"

As Li Qi was waiting, he was getting closer and closer to the prison. At this time, Garden suddenly shouted to everyone, asking them to put on the blindfolds they carried with them.

During this process, he also instructed:

“Although I have said it many times, I still want to say it again. The place we are going to is an important place in the kingdom. Let alone staying there, even taking a look at it will bring trouble to ourselves!

"So if you don't want to get into trouble and don't want to stay in the prison, you'd better do as I say and cover your eyes obediently. Don't wait until you are caught and thrown into the prison and blame me for not reminding you!"

Garden's tone was very serious, and he looked a few more times at the newcomers like Li Qi who had just joined the team.

They hadn't even entered the prison yet, so of course Li Qi couldn't go against Garden. He obediently took out his eye mask and put it on his face.

After making sure that everyone was wearing blindfolds, Garton drove the carriage and continued to move forward.

Although his eyes were blindfolded and he could not see anything around him, Li Qi was able to construct a relatively complete set of images in his mind through the weaving of sounds and super powers.

He made sure that he and others were still following the original route, without deviating from the direction or suddenly running to another place.

What puzzled Li Qi was that, based on the distance they had traveled, they should have been out of the inner city long ago.

But why...can't I see the scenery of the outer city?
The outer city surrounds the entire royal city, with an outer circle and an inner circle enclosing the royal palace in the center.

No matter which direction you go, you must pass through the outer city to leave the city.

There are quite a lot of people in the outer city. Logically speaking, no matter where he goes, Li Qi should be able to feel the presence of others.

But now, Li Qi only felt that the surroundings were empty. Apart from the people in the convoy, he could basically not see anyone.

Strange... So where did this convoy go?

Li Qi didn't understand.

After a while, the carriage suddenly stopped, and Li Qi heard Uncle Garden's conversation:

"We have delivered the supplies. Here is the warrant."

Uncle Garden said as he handed the warrant to someone.

But when Li Qi heard their conversation, he felt a chill in his heart.

Because he didn't feel anyone around him at all!
Obviously, no matter what kind of creature it is, there should be signs of temperature and blood flow on its body, and as long as these exist, it will definitely not escape Li Qi's superpowers.

But when Garden was speaking, Li Qi couldn't sense the person who was talking to Garden, as if Garden was talking to the air!
So, Uncle Garden, is he really talking to the air?

Just as he thought of this, Li Qi heard a response:

"…Warrant…Correct, approved…"

A deep and slightly stiff voice came, which did not sound like a human voice.

When Li Qi heard the voice, he had a guess in his mind that perhaps the person talking to Garden was not a human, but just some kind of preset program.

Thinking of this, Li Qi couldn't suppress his curiosity. He spread out his left hand, and part of it turned into eyes and hid under his cuffs, looking outside through the gap in the sleeves.

But this sight almost made Li Qi's heart jump out.

Just as he thought, the person who was talking to Uncle Garden was indeed not a human.

But it was not the procedure he had in mind!

They were two 'people' with nearly transparent bodies, wearing the different colored uniforms of the Kingdom Guard!
Their expressions were stiff and their faces were blue, without a trace of life in them, just like the ghosts in the legend!
Ghost? Phantom? Spirit?!

After being frightened, Li Qi's mind quickly became active.

Although these two jailers look scary and not quite like humans, if they are really souls, it proves that this place has a way to maintain souls.

If he could find this method, Li Qi might be able to try to explore the secrets of the soul.

Even if you can't find a way to transfer your soul consciousness into the doll, you can still find a way to keep your soul in this world.

Maybe this trip to the prison was the right decision!
As Li Qi was thinking, the eye that his left hand had transformed into rolled around.

Suddenly, one of the two jailers turned his head and looked in Li Qi's direction. Before he turned his head, Li Qi changed his eyes back to their original state and hid his left hand under his sleeve so that the man would not notice anything.

The two jailers looked around for a while, and one of them suddenly asked:
"There is a... new face..."

After checking the warrant, Uncle Garden, who was about to take it back, slapped his head and said with an apologetic smile:
"Hey, this isn't my nephew. He insisted on pestering me to come out and work with me to earn money, so I brought him with me. Sirs, please rest assured that I will definitely keep an eye on him and not let him cause any trouble."

"..."

The jailer looked at Garton in silence, causing cold sweat to flow down Garton's forehead.

But fortunately, he did not embarrass Jiaton and quickly said:

"Okay, let's go."

Garton immediately breathed a sigh of relief and drove the carriage forward.

Because his eyes were covered and his super powers were not sensitive to things without heat sources, Li Qi could only vaguely sense that they had passed through a huge door.

After passing through the door, the little light that came through the blindfold disappeared instantly, indicating that they had come to a dark place.

After a while, after passing through several passages, Garton said to everyone:

"Okay, take off the blindfold and start unloading. Put the blindfold back on after unloading, and then leave here. Our mission will be accomplished."

Following Garton's order, everyone on the carriage began to move the supplies on the carriage.

Li Qi was among them. As he was carrying things, he looked around.

This seems to be a warehouse, which is quite industrial, with vertical metal walls on all four sides and large lights hanging above that can illuminate the entire warehouse.

In one corner of the warehouse, there are still some unused supplies, but the rest of the place is empty with nothing else.

Li Qi sensed it a little and found that not only were there no guards here, but even the green-faced ghost he had seen before did not exist.

Could it be that the kingdom is so confident in the team transporting supplies that it isn't worried about what they might do in the warehouse?
Li Qi guessed, glanced at Garton who was giving the orders, found a blind spot to hide his body, and then waved his right hand, and the improvised puppet appeared in front of Li Qi.

The doll has the same appearance as Li Qi, except that the expression is a little stiff, not like a human, and there is a kind of uncanny valley effect after looking at it for a long time, but other aspects are similar to Li Qi.

He followed the procedure set by Li Qi and followed Garden out of the prison.

And Li Qi stayed here.

According to Garden, they would probably have to go back the same way.

If Li Qi was not there, it would bring trouble to Garden, and Li Qi didn't want to harm an innocent person because of his actions.

Due to the illusion created by Li Qi, Garden failed to notice that Li Qi had been replaced.

They unloaded the goods as usual, got into the car, and finally put on blindfolds and left the prison warehouse under the leadership of Garden.

Li Qi hid behind the arranged cargo boxes and secretly watched them go away.

Only after making sure they had left did Li Qi walk out from behind the cargo box.

The lights in the warehouse seemed to be always on, and even after Garden and his group had left, the lights did not go out.

Li Qi waited for a while, and after making sure that no one came in to pick up the goods, he started walking around the warehouse.

"The door is locked quite tightly."

Walking to the door of the warehouse, Li Qi put his hand on it and tried it with a little force.

Only after making sure that the warehouse door had been locked did he put his hand down.

It seems that no one will come for a while, so Li Qi plans to take advantage of the time to check the supplies they are carrying.

The supplies were sealed with special glue. Li Qi had not found an opportunity to remove the glue and check what was inside before, but now he doesn't have to worry about that.

Li Qi opened one of the boxes along the seal and held the removed glue in his right hand. When he spread out his right hand again, the glue in his right hand had become as good as new.

This is not repair, but the ability of the right hand to transform matter.

Compared with the material consumption of converting other things, it is much simpler and more convenient to convert something that already exists but cannot be used into something that can be used again.

Li Qi successfully produced a new glue without even paying any extra cost.

After checking the box, Li Qi can use the glue in his hand to seal the box to ensure that it is exactly the same as the one he had seen before.

"Well, let me see what's inside..."

After opening the box, Li Qi looked inside with curiosity.

The next thing you see is some palm-sized clothes made for little people.

Li Qi: "..."

Li Qi raised his hand and took out a little man's clothes. He looked at it over and over again, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind.

"…I see. No wonder there are only five boxes of supplies."

Li Qi narrowed his eyes, put down the little man's clothes, and was about to check other boxes when he suddenly heard the sound of the warehouse door being unlocked.

Without time to think, Li Qi quickly sealed the box, used illusion to cover his figure, and hid behind a pile of cargo boxes.

Just as he finished doing this, the door of the warehouse was opened.

Several guys who looked like the jailers outside pushed the door open and walked in.
