Chapter 49: Spstanders
In the dungeon, where a trace of sunlight can't reach, only the torches on the wall illuminate the world, but the dungeon is even more eerie.
The stench, the smell of blood, and the cries filled the space.
Yu Mingzhi took the first step, and a human face appeared in the narrow hole in the door of the first cell.
She forcibly suppressed the exclamation.
The face was covered with scars, indistinguishable even for men and women, and the place where the eyes were originally covered with dark red scars, and the intact eyes refracted a terrifying light in the firelight, like a hungry wolf seeing a delicious prey. And after seeing Yu Mingzhi, he let out a terrible laugh of "giggles".
"They can't hurt you." Qin Ji clenched Yu Mingzhi's hand and walked calmly and calmly through the narrow passage.
His hands are warm and dry, and he has the power to stabilize people's hearts.
Yu Mingzhi lowered his gaze and endured the stench that lingered on the tip of his nose.
At the beginning of the prison in Dali Temple, their family did not encounter prisoners. It was the first time she had seen such a hellish scene, and she couldn't show her fear.
Because once Qin Ji noticed that she was abnormal, he would definitely take her away immediately.
And she wants to see with her own eyes those who murdered her father, who are tortured a hundred times more painful than him.
Soon, they stopped at the door of one of the cells, and Yu Mingzhi saw that Tan Tai, who was still a glamorous lackey under Yiwang yesterday, was hanging in the center of the room, and the iron chain had been strangled with blood on his wrist, and there were not only blood stains but also dust and mud on his clothes, which was not in a good shape.
He had come to his senses from drunkenness and begged the jailers to let him go, otherwise they would look good, and shouted over and over again, but no one answered.
Until now, his lips were chapped, and he still made a weak voice intermittently, "You guys...... You dogs, wait, wait for death...... Wait until I get back...... I will definitely smash your corpses, ten thousand ......"
With such a threat and curse, the jailers had already heard the callouse in their ears and continued to prepare the torture instruments indifferently.
Tan Tai saw that the person who came in was Qin Ji, and twisted it a few times, the chains rattled, and the wound on his wrist grinded deeper.
"Dog thief...... Qin Ji, isn't it, did you set a trap to harm me! ”
Qin Ji was noncommittal, sat with Yu Mingzhi on the clean circle chair near the door, and then nodded to Jing Zhaoyin.
He said to Yu Mingzhi with some worry: "Are you sure you want to see it?" You can also go to the next room and listen to what he says, and it's all disturbed. ”
Along the way, Yu Mingzhi was young and couldn't completely hide it, so he could see that she was nervous and scared.
Yu Mingzhi shook his head firmly, "It's here." ”
Jing Zhaoyin stepped forward and asked sharply, "Tan Tai, why did you go to Xiangzhou half a year ago?" Who have you seen? Tell me honestly, or these torture instruments will be used on you one by one. ”
Tan Tai snorted coldly, "I'll go...... Can't play yet? I didn't break the law, and I have to ask the government office if I can go out for a walk? ”
Jing Zhaoyin didn't speak, and his eyes gestured to the jailer next to him.
The jailer took out ten thick and long silver needles from the plate, put them on the fire and baked them repeatedly until the pointed ends were too hot to touch, and then another jailer came up, and the two of them poked the silver needles into Tan Tai's toenails one by one.
When the first one just touched the skin, Tan Tai immediately let out a miserable scream and shook his body violently.
Another jailer stepped forward and held him firmly, and the silver needle pierced into it quickly and ruthlessly.
"Ahh
Tan Tai let out a scream that echoed through the cell for a long time.
The voice was extremely harsh, and Yu Mingzhi clutched his clothes.
Qin Ji's hand pressed on the back of her hand again, but he didn't persuade her to leave.
No matter how much Tan Tai screamed and struggled, or squeezed out a few cursed words, he couldn't stop the jailer from plunging all the silver needles into him.
He was sweating and panting in pain.
Jing Zhaoyin asked again: "I know you lied, this is just a small punishment." Let me ask you again, what did you do in Xiangzhou and who you met. ”
Tan Tai gritted his teeth, finally endured the pain a little, and shouted: "My uncle-in-law is the imperial history of Liwangshan!" Beware that he will impeach you and leave you dead! ”
Jing Zhaoyin laughed disappreliantly, "You killed someone, the evidence is conclusive, how can a person who abides by the law and values reputation bend the law for personal gain?" Tan Tai, the official's patience is limited, I advise you to confess quickly. ”
Tan Tai continued to curse, cursing Qin Ji's family for not dying well, "...... I wish you a wife to be separated, all the people to betray their relatives and leave, and no one to send them to the end of old age! ”
Hearing this, Qin Ji suddenly got up, took out a delicate and small dagger from his sleeve, and walked towards him.
